LOAN AGREEMENT: How you may accept the loan. When you place your order and choose the Bill Me Later payment option, we will send you a confirmation letter, further explaining and disclosing the specific terms of the loan. If you do not want the loan, when you get a billing statement, simply pay for your purchase in full before the promotional period ends. If you do not pay in full during the promotional period, that will be your way of telling us that you want the loan on the terms stated in this agreement and in the confirmation letter, and that you agree to repay the loan. a. To pay all costs of collection if we take any action to collect this loan, if permitted by applicable law. This shall include, unless prohibited by applicable law, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses to the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. b. To make all payments by check, money order, or other legal instrument in U.S. Dollars, so that we receive it at the remittance address disclosed on the billing statement. If you make a payment using a non-standard check, money order or other instrument, you agree to pay our costs of processing the payment. This includes, among other things, oversized and undersized instruments, instruments using non-standard materials, instruments in a non-standard format, and any other non-standard instrument that requires special handling. d. To promptly notify us if you change your name, mailing address, e-mail address or telephone number. e. To honor any other promises that you make in this Agreement. f. That you will not accept this loan unless you are of legal age in the state where you reside and are a resident of the U.S.A. g. To attempt to resolve any dispute you have with the merchant directly; you agree to allow a reasonable period of time for the merchant to resolve the dispute. This shall in no way limit or reduce your legal rights. Interest. You agree to pay a Finance Charge on the outstanding balance of the loan until you pay the balance in full. The Finance Charge will be calculated as of the last day in the billing cycle (the Statement Date), in the following way: a. When the Finance Charge begins. Interest begins to accrue on the Transaction Date of your purchase with the merchant. Billing of the interest which accrues during the promotional period will be deferred until the end of the promotional period. b. How to avoid paying interest. At your option, you may pay the Amount Financed in full before the end of the promotional period and you will pay no interest or fees for this loan. If you do not pay the Amount Financed in full during the promotional period, the deferred interest will be billed at the end of the promotional period. c. How we will determine the balance on which the Finance Charge is computed. We will compute the Finance Charge on the "Average Daily Balance" during the billing cycle. To get the Average Daily Balance, we will take the beginning balance each day and add adjustments posted that day; then subtract any payments, credits, and unpaid Finance Charges. This gives us the "Daily Balance." Then, we add up all the Daily Balances for the billing cycle and divide the total by the number of days in the billing cycle. The result is the Average Daily Balance. We will treat any Average Daily Balance which is a credit balance as zero. d. How we compute the Finance Charge. We will compute the Finance Charge separately for each Billing cycle. We will multiply the Average Daily Balance for the Billing cycle by the number of days in the billing cycle; then we will multiply the product by the Daily Periodic Rate in effect during that billing cycle. The result is the Finance Charge.

e. Minimum Finance Charge. If the Daily Balance on the last day of a billing cycle (the statement date), is greater than zero, and if the Finance Charge for the billing cycle is greater than zero but less than $2.00, we may assess a Finance Charge of $2.00 for the billing cycle. f. Daily Periodic Rate of Finance Charge. We will compute the Finance Charge using the Daily Periodic Rate, which is calculated by dividing the Annual Percentage Rate by the number of days in the year. Fee for providing a copy of billing statement. Unless we are required by law to provide you with a copy of a billing statement for a billing cycle other than the current billing cycle, you agree to pay a fee of ten dollars ($10.00) per billing statement if you request a copy. Notices and customer service. You agree that any notice or correspondence that we are required by this Agreement or by law to send to you may be sent by regular U.S. mail to the address that you have provided or by e-mail to the e-mail address that you have provided, unless otherwise required by law.
