*The Delinquency Rate will apply if all or part of at least two Minimum Payments are past due at the end of a billing period. Once in effect, if you are not late with any required Minimum Payment for six consecutive billing periods, the rate will be equal to the rate applicable to your account immediately before the Delinquency Rate was imposed. The information about the costs of the card described above is accurate as of 3/31/02. This information may have changed after that date. To find out about what may have changed, write us at P.O. Box 103031, Roswell, GA 30076.
GE Money Bank 1. GENERAL. This Agreement (“Agreement”) governs the use of your ExxonMobil credit card account (your “Account”). Please read and keep this Agreement for your records. In this Agreement and in your billing statement (“Statement”), “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to GE Money Bank, 4246 South Riverboat Rd, Suite 200, Salt Lake City, UT 84123-2551, our assignees, or other holders of this Agreement or your Account. “You” and “your” refer to all persons who are approved by us to use the Account. “Card” refers to your ExxonMobil Credit Card. The effective date (“Effective Date”) of this Agreement will be the earlier of (i) the date you submit an Account application that is approved by us, or (ii) the first date that you or someone authorized by you uses the Account [in NY, the first date that you or someone authorized by you signs a sales slip or memorandum indicating a Purchase (as defined herein) on the Account]. You may use your Card to make Purchases on credit from time to time under your Account, up to any credit limit we may establish for your Account (your “Credit Limit”). We reserve the right to decline to authorize any Purchase or to change your Credit Limit at any time. You agree to use your Account only for personal, family or household purposes. 2. PROMISE TO PAY. When you submit your Application for this Account, you agree to be bound by this Agreement. You promise to pay us for all credit that we extend on your Account for purchases (including mail, Internet, catalog and phone orders, if any) of goods or services (“Purchase(s)”) and all other amounts owed to us under the terms of this Agreement. If your Account is a joint Account, (i) each of you is bound by this Agreement; (ii) each of you may use the Account, up to any Credit Limit; and (iii), and each of you jointly and individually promises to pay us, and may be held liable for, all amounts owed to us on your Account. 3. FINANCE CHARGES. A. STANDARD RATE. When your Account has
a balance subject to Finance Charge (as described in Paragraph 5 below),
we will assess a Finance Charge calculated by applying a daily (monthly
in PR) periodic rate (“periodic rate”) to that balance. In all states,
your periodic rate and corresponding Annual Percentage Rate will vary.
The periodic rate applied in any billing period will be equal to 1/365
(1/12 in PR) of the total of (i) the highest bank prime loan rate as
published in The Wall Street Journal in its Money Rates section
(“prime rate”) on the last business day of the calendar month preceding
the first day of such billing period and (ii) 13.9%. However, the periodic
rate will in no event be less than .05754% (1.7500%
in PR) (ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE 21.00%)
or more than .07496% (2.2800%
in PR) (ANNUAL PERCENTAGE
RATE 27.36%). If the prime rate increases, the periodic rate
and corresponding Annual Percentage Rate may increase, and as a result
the Finance Charge, the Minimum Payment and the number of payments may
also increase. Any new periodic rate will apply to your entire Account
balance. B. DELINQUENCY RATE. If all or a part of at least two Minimum Payments are past due at the end of a billing period, a “Delinquency Rate” (instead of the periodic rate disclosed in Paragraph 3.A.) may be applied to all existing balances on your Account and all new transactions beginning with the first day of the billing period that begins after the Payment Due Date for the second Minimum Payment that was not made on time. In all states, the Delinquency Rate will vary and will be equal to 1/365 of the total of the prime rate plus 17.9%, but in no event less than .06576% (ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE 24.00%) or more than .07496% (ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE 27.36%). The Delinquency Rate under the above formula as of March 31, 2002 was .06576% and the corresponding ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE was 24.00%. After you have made your required Minimum Payment (if any) by the Payment Due Date in six consecutive billing periods, beginning with the first day of the billing period that begins after the Payment Due Date for the sixth consecutive billing period for which you made the required Minimum Payment, the periodic rate will be equal to the rate that was applicable to your Account immediately before the Delinquency Rate was imposed. The Delinquency Rate does not apply in PR. C. MINIMUM FINANCE CHARGE. A minimum FINANCE CHARGE of $1.50 ($.50 in IA) will be assessed for any billing period in which a Finance Charge is due. No minimum FINANCE CHARGE will be assessed in PR. 4. MAIL ORDER MERCHANDISE. Periodically, you may receive mail order merchandise offers. If the offer permits you to pay for the merchandise in installments and you elect the installment option, one installment will be added to each monthly Minimum Payment until repaid in full. If the offer does not permit you to pay for the merchandise in installments or you do not elect the installment option, the entire purchase price will be added to your Account as a new Purchase. A merchandise installment payment that is not paid by the payment due date is included in the daily balance subject to finance charge on the first day in the next billing period. 5. BALANCE SUBJECT TO FINANCE CHARGE. There
will be no balance subject to Finance Charge for a billing period if
there is no Previous Balance on your Account for the billing period
or the sum of your payments and credits on your Account during the billing
period is at least equal to the Previous Balance. 6. WHEN FINANCE CHARGES BEGIN TO ACCRUE. If there is no Previous Balance for the billing period or the sum of your payments and credits for the billing period is at least equal to the Previous Balance, new Purchases and other charges in that billing period will begin to accrue a Finance Charge as of the first day of the next billing period if a Finance Charge is imposed in the next billing period. If there is a Previous Balance for the billing period, including any balance of Purchases made under any Special Payment Plan, and the sum of your payments and credits for a billing period is not at least equal to that Previous Balance, new Purchases and other charges will begin to accrue a Finance Charge from the later of the date of the transaction or the first day of the billing period in which the transaction is posted to your Account. 7. PAYMENTS. Unless otherwise provided for in a Special Payment Plan, when there is a New Balance shown on your Statement, you agree to pay at least the Minimum Payment called for on that Statement, in time for receipt by us by the Payment Due Date shown on the Statement. Your Minimum Payment will be the amount shown in the following table, rounded to the next highest dollar.
In addition, your Minimum Payment will also include (i) any past due
amounts and (ii) the amount of any installment due on mail order merchandise
payable in installments. 8. FEES. A. LATE PAYMENT FEE. We may impose a Late Payment Fee, based on your total Account balance at the time your delinquent Minimum Payment was calculated, as indicated below, if we have not received your Minimum Payment by the Payment Due Date shown on your Statement.
B. RETURNED CHECK FEE. We may impose a Returned Check Fee of $10 if any check or other instrument sent to us or any electronic payment authorization you provide us in payment on your Account is not honored upon first presentment, even if the check, instrument or electronic authorization is later honored. We do not impose a Returned Check Fee in PR. 9. SPECIAL PAYMENT PLANS. From time to time you may be offered special promotional terms which (subject to specified conditions) reduce the cost of credit under this Agreement or otherwise modify the terms of this Agreement with respect to certain Purchases on your Account (“Special Payment Plans”). The standard provisions of this Agreement apply to any Special Payment Plan, unless otherwise provided under the Special Payment Plan offering, and will continue to apply to any and all transactions that are not subject to a Special Payment Plan. 10. TERMINATION/CHANGE IN TERMS. You may at any time terminate this Agreement. We may, at any time and subject to applicable law: (a) terminate this Agreement; (b) terminate your right to make future Purchases; (c) change your Credit Limit; or (d) change or delete any term or condition of, or add new terms to, this Agreement relating to your Account. Unless prohibited by applicable law, we may apply any changed or new terms to any outstanding balance of your Account on the effective date of the change and to any future balances created after that date. When required by applicable law, we will mail a notice of any change(s) or addition(s) to you. Upon any termination of this Agreement you will continue to be obligated to pay all amounts owing under, and to otherwise perform the terms and conditions of, this Agreement. 11. DEFAULT. Subject to the limitations of applicable law, we may declare that you are in default under this Agreement if you (a) fail to make at least the Minimum Payment when due; (b) violate any other term of this Agreement; or (c) become the subject of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding. After your default or your death, and subject to the limitations of applicable law, we have the right to: (i) reduce your Credit Limit; (ii) terminate your Account, in which case the terms of this Agreement will apply until full payment is received of the amount owing on your Account, including Finance Charges which we will continue to impose to the date of full payment; (iii) require immediate payment of your entire Account balance, including Special Payment Plan balances, all accrued but unpaid Finance Charges, and all fees and other charges listed in this Agreement; (iv) bring an action to collect all amounts owed; and (v) take any action allowed by law. If, after your default, we refer your Account for collection to an attorney who is not our salaried employee, we may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, charge and collect from you our collection costs, including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees. 12. LIABILITY FOR UNAUTHORIZED USE. The Card is issued to you by us at your request and you agree to destroy it upon demand. You may be liable for the unauthorized use of the Card. You agree to promptly notify us if your Card is lost or stolen or of possible unauthorized use of your Card by writing to P.O. Box 103028, Roswell, GA 30076 or by calling us at 1-800-344-4355. You will not be liable for unauthorized use that occurs after you notify us of the loss, theft, or possible unauthorized use and, in any case, your liability for unauthorized use will not exceed $50 (in NY, you will have no liability for unauthorized use of the Card prior to the Effective Date). If you orally give us notice concerning loss or theft, you agree to confirm it in writing. You agree that unauthorized use does not include use by a person whom you have given authority to use the Account or Card and that you will be liable for all use by such a person. To terminate that authority, you must notify us at 1-800-344-4355. 13. CREDIT REPORTS AND ACCOUNT INFORMATION. You give us permission to request information and to make whatever inquiries we consider necessary and appropriate (including obtaining information from third parties and requesting consumer reports from consumer reporting agencies) for the purpose of considering your application for this Account and subsequently, in connection with any updates, renewals or extensions of credit or reviewing or collecting your Account. You also authorize us to report information concerning you or your Account, including information about your performance under this Agreement, to consumer reporting agencies and others who may properly receive such information. If you believe that we have reported inaccurate information about you to a consumer reporting agency, please contact us at P.O. Box 103065, Roswell, GA 30076-9065. In doing so, please identify the inaccurate information and tell us why you believe it is incorrect.

To ensure that you receive accurate and courteous customer service, on occasion your call may be monitored by other employees and you agree to any such monitoring. A license to use service observing equipment has been obtained from the Georgia Public Service Commission. 16. NO WAIVER BY US. We reserve the right, at any time and in our sole discretion, not to impose part or all of any fee or other amount imposed pursuant to this Agreement or not to exercise any of our other rights under this Agreement and, should we do so, we will not waive our right to impose such fee or other amount or exercise the right as set forth in this Agreement in the future. Without limiting the foregoing, we may, at our option: (a) accept late or partial payments or checks or money orders marked “payment in full” or tendered with other conditions or limitations, (b) agree to extend the due date of any payment due under this Agreement for any length of time, (c) release any security interest we have in connection with this Agreement, and/or (d) release any other person responsible under this Agreement, without notifying you and without releasing you from your obligation to pay all amounts owing under this Agreement in full, or to otherwise perform the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 17. CHANGE OF ADDRESS. You agree to notify us promptly if you change your address. Until we are notified that your address has changed, we will continue to send Statements and other notices to the last address we maintained on your Account. You agree that when we are notified that you have a new address, the terms of this Agreement specifically applicable to the residents of your new state of residence will apply to the entire balance of your Account.
