VISA® Business Card

*A finance charge will be imposed on Credit Purchases only if you elect not to pay the entire new balance shown on your monthly statement for the previous billing cycle within 25 days from the closing date of that statement. If you elect not to pay the entire new balance shown on your previous monthly statement within that 25-day period, a finance charge will be imposed on the unpaid average daily balance of such Credit Purchases from the previous statement closing date and on new Credit Purchases from the date of posting to your account during the current billing cycle, and will continue to accrue until the closing date of the billing cycle preceding the date on which the entire new balance is paid in full or until the date of payment if more than 25 days from the closing date. The finance charge for a billing cycle is computed by applying the monthly periodic rate to the average daily balance of Credit Purchases, which is determined by dividing the sum of the daily balances during the billing cycle by the number of days in the cycle. Each daily balance of Credit Purchases is determined by adding to the outstanding unpaid balance of Credit Purchases at the beginning of the billing cycle any new Credit Purchases posted to your account, and subtracting any payments as received or credits as posted to your account, but excluding any unpaid finance charges. A finance charge will be imposed on Cash Advances from the date made or from the first day of the billing cycle in which the Cash Advance is posted to your account, whichever is later, and will continue to accrue on the unpaid average daily balance of such Cash Advances until the date of payment if paid during the same billing cycle, or until the closing date of the billing cycle preceding the date on which the entire new balance is paid in full or until the date of payment if more than 25 days from the closing date. If the new balance shown on your monthly statement for the prior billing cycle is paid in full within 25 days of the closing date of that statement, no finance charges will be imposed during the current billing cycle for Cash Advances posted to your account during previous billing cycles.

When credit cards are issued upon the application of two or more persons, all such persons shall be jointly and severally liable as Holders. The provisions of these regulations, as amended from time to time, govern Holder’s obligations, notwithstanding any additional or different terms contained in sales drafts, credit adjustment memos, cash advance drafts or other forms signed by or given to Holder or any user of Holder ‘s cards to evidence a credit card transaction. Holder authorizes an investigation of Holder’s credit standing prior to the issuance of a credit card to Holder and at any time thereafter and authorizes disclosure of information to third parties relating to Holder’s credit standing. These regulations apply to all credit cards issued to Holder or to others on Holder’s authorization and to any user of Holder’s cards.
2. Membership Fees. As a condition of participation in the issuer’s credit plan and the issuance of a card, Holder agrees that there is no annual membership fee for VISA consumer and business accounts.

3. Use of Card. Credit for purchases from a merchant or a cash advance from a participating financial institution may be obtained by Holder or an authorized user of Holder’s card presenting one of Holder’s cards to the merchant or participating financial institution and, if requested, by providing the proper identifying information and signing the appropriate drafts. Failure to si g n a draft does not relieve the Holder of liability for purchases made or cash received. The use of this card for illegal transactions is prohibited. The card may also be used to obtain cash advances from certain automated equipment provided it is used with Holder’s correct Personal Identification Number (“PIN”) issued to Holder. Holder may make only two cash advance withdrawals totaling not more than $200 each day from compatible ATM terminals.

5. Credit Line. Holder will from time to time be informed of the amount of the approved credit line established for Holder, and Holder covenants not to make credit purchases or borrowings in excess of that amount. Holder is liable for all purchases and borrowings made with Holder’s cards by Holder or by anyone authorized to use Holder’s cards. Credit line is subject to change at any time for any reason based on credit scores, payment history or other bank criteria.
6. Payment. Holder will be furnished a monthly statement for each billing period at the end of which there is an undisputed debit or credit balance of $1.00 or more. Holder shall pay within 25 days after each statement Closing Date either (a) the full amount billed (“New Balance” ) or , a t Holder’s option, (b) a minimum Payment of 3.5% or $15 of the New Balance, whichever is greater. Payments may be mailed to Texas Bank and Trust, P.O. Box 6818, Carol Stream, IL 60197-6818. Payments may be made, in person, at a Texas Bank and Trust office. Payments received after 5:00 p.m. EST on any processing day or at any time on any non-processing day will be considered as payments made on the following processing day. All payments by Holder will be applied first to payment of Interest Charges in the order of their entry to the account, second to additional fees and credit insurance charges, if any, in the order of their entry to the account, third to previously billed cash advances, purchases and other similar charge s i n the order of their entry to the account, and then to current cash advances, purchases and o th e r similar charges in the order of their entry to the account.
7. Interest Charges. Holder shall pay Interest Charges as shown on Holder’s monthly statements, for each billing period in which there is a cash advance or the Previous Balance is not paid in full prior to the Closing Date of the billing statement. For cash advance fees, please see the Rates and Fees Disclosure Table. We figure the Interest Charges on your account by applying the monthly Periodic Rate to the entire “Balance Subject to Interest Rate.” The additional charge for cash advances shall not apply to any cash advance obtained under a separate credit agreement with Holder and written in connection with these regulations. The “Balance Subject to Interest Rate” is the “average daily balance,” of the account (including current transaction). To get the “average daily balance,” we take the beginning balance of the account each day, add any new cash advances, credit purchases and other charges, and subtract any payments or credits, unpaid late charges, unpaid membership fees and unpaid Interest Charges. This gives us the daily balance. Then, we add up all of the daily balances for the billing cycle and divide the total by the number of days in the billing cycle. This gives us the “AVERAGE DAILY BALANCE.” Interest Charges for credit purchases begin on the date the purchase is posted to the account unless the Previous Balance shown on the statement is paid in full prior to the Closing Date of the statement. Credit purchases made during the statement period and the Previous Balance will be excluded from the calculation of the “ average daily balance” if the Previous Balance shown on the front of the statement was paid in full prior to the Closing Date of the statement. The Interest Charges for cash advances begin on the date the advance is posted to the account. Holder may avoid additional Interest Charges on an account by paying in full the New Balance shown on the account’s monthly statement within 25 days after the Closing Date for that statement.
8. Additional Fees. For a listing of fees charged in association with this card, please see the Rates and Fees Disclosure Table accompanying this Agreement. These charges will not be imposed if Holder’s request is in connection with or delivery of the documents in response to an alleged billing error under Regulations E or Z issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Fees imposed will be posted to Holder’s account.

Issuer disclaims as security for loans made to Holder under these regulations any security interest it may at any time have in household goods or real property.
