Payments: Payments received after 12:00 noon or on weekends or hokdays may not be credited until the next business
day. Payments must be in US DdlarS and drawn on a bank located in the US (other than American Express Centurion
Bank), in the enclosed envelo . with the remittance stub attached and account number listed on the check. Please do
not send postdated checks. They will be deposited upon receipt If payment is made in any other form or at any
other location, there may be a delay in processing. We reserve the right to procoss checks otedrcnicaly, at
first presentment and any re-presentments, by transmitting the amount of the check, routing number, account number
and check serial number to your financial institution. Your checking account may be debited as soon as the same
day we receive your payment. If we can not collect the funds electronically at first presentment, we may issue
a draft against your account for the amount of the check. Authorization for Electronic Payments:By using the American
Express Pay By Computer, Pay By Phone or any other American Express electronic payment service, you will be

Lost or Stolen Card: If the Card is lost or stolen, in the U.S. immediately telephone us at the number noted to the right.
Outside the U.S. contact the nearest American Express Travel Service Officeor call any local American Express office.
Finance Charges: Average Daily Balance Method for Calculation of Finance Charges (FC):We use the Average
Daily Balance method to calculate FC on your Account. Under this method, we figure the FC on your Account by applying
the daily periodic rate to the Average Daily Balance (as described below) for each feature (such as Purchase, Cash
Advance and Balance Transfer features) of your Account Orcluding current transactions). To get the Average Daily
Balance for each feature, we (1) take the beginning balance for the feature each day (including unpaid FC from previous
bitting periods), (2) add any new transactions, decits, or fees, (3) subtract any payments or credits, and (4) make any
appropriate a ustments. For each day after the first day of the billing period, we also add an amount of
Interest equ
to the previous day's daily balance multiplied by the daily periodic rate for the feature.
This gives us the daily baknce for the feature for that day and the beginning balance for the feature for the next day. If this
balance is negative, it is considered to be zero. Then, we add up all the daily balances for the feature for the tilling period
and divide the total by the number of days in the billing period. This gives us the Average Daily Balance for the feature. For
all features except Cash Advances and certain promotions, the Average Daily Balance will be considered to be zero if you
paid the New Balance, if any, shown on your previous month's statement by the Payment Due Date shown on that
statement. If you multiply the Average Daily Balance for each feature by the number of days in the billing period and the
daily periodic rate for that feature, the result will be the FC assessed on that feature, except for variations caused by
rounding. The total FC for the billing period is calculated by adding the FC assessed on all features of the Account. This
method of calculating. the Average Daily Balance and FC results in daily compounding of FC. The minimum
FC for any bang period in which FC are imposed is $0.50.

Finance Charges: Average Daily Balance Method for Calculation of Finance Charges (FC):We use the Average
Daily Balance method to calculate FC on your Account. Under this method, we figure the FC on your Account by applying
the daily periodic rate to the Average Daily Balance (as deserted below) for each feature (such as Purchase,-Cash
Advance and Balance Transfer features) 01 your Account (including current transactions). To get the Average Daily
Balance for each feature, we (1) take the beginning balance for the feature each day (inducing unpaid FC from previous
billing periods (2) add any new transactions, debits or fees, (3) subtract any payments or credits, and (4) make any
atop-opiate a ustments. For each day after the first day of the billing period, wo also odd an amount of
interest equ
to the previous day's dell!), balance multiplied by the daily periodic rate for the feature.
This gives us the daily balance for the feature for that day and the beginning balance for the feature for the next day. II this
balance is negative, it is considered to be zero. Then, we add up al the daily balances for the feature for the billing period
and dvide the total by the number of days in the billing period. This gives us the Average Daily Balance for the feature. For
all features except Cash Advances and certain promotions, the Average Daily Balance will be considered to be zero it you
paid the New Balance if any shown on your previous month's statement by the Payment Due Date shown on that
statement. If you multiply the Average Daily Balance for each feature by the number of days in the tilling period and the
daily periodic rate for hat feature, the result will be the FC assessed on that feature, except for variations caused %.
rounding. The total FC for the idling period is calculated by adding the FC assessed on all features of the Account. TNs
method of calculating the Average Daily Balance and FC results in daily compounding of FC. The minimum
FC for any billing period in which FC are imposed is $0.50.

Finance Charges: Average Daily Balance Method for Calculation of Finance Charges (FC):We use the Average
Daily Balance method to calculate FC on your Account. Under this method, we figure the FC on your Account by applying
the daily periodic rate to the Average Daily Balance (as described below) for each feature 'such as Purchase, Case
Advance and Balance Transfer features) of your Account (inducing current transactions). To get the Average Daily
Balance for each feature, we (1) take the beginning balance for the feature each day (including unpaid FC from previous
biting periods), (2) add any new transactions, debits, cr leas, (3) subtract any payments or credits, and (4) make any
appropriate adustments. For each day alter the first day of the billing period, we also add an amount of
interest equal to the previous day's ditty balance multiplied by the citify periodic rate for the Mature.
This gives us the daily balance for the feature for that day and the beginning balance for the feature for the next day. If this
balance is negative, ft is considered to be zero. Then, we add up all the daily balances for the feature for the bittern period
and divide the total by the number of days in the billing period. This gives us the Average Daily Balance forthe feature. For
all features except Cash Advances and certain promotions, the Average Daily Balance will be considered to be zero if you
paid the New Balance, if any, shown on your previous month's statement by the Payment Due Date shown on that
statement. If you multiply the Average Daly Balance for each feature by the number of days in the billing period and the
daily periodic rate for that feature, the result will be the FC assessed on that feature, except for variations caused by
rounding. The total FC for the billing period is calculated by adding the FC assessed on all features of the Account. This
method of calculating the Average Daily Balance and FC results In daily compounding of FC. The minimum
FC for any billing period in whch FC are imposed is $0.50.

Christopher Boehr vs. American Express Centurion Bank, et al,
Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles, Case No. BC 256499
TO: All current or former holders of credit cards or charge cards Issued by American Express Travel Related
Services Company, Inc. or American Express Centurion Bank, or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates or any of
their predecessors (collectively, "American Express"), who at any time between August 22, 1995 and January
27, 2004 either (1) incurred finance charges or (2) incurred a late fee within one day of the posting of a payment
to their account (hereinafter, "Settlement Class").
This Notice summarizes a proposed class action settlement
relating to your credit card or charge card account(s) with
American Express. On January 27, 2004, this Court gave
preliminary approval to the Settlement. The purpose of this
notice is to describe the proposed Settlement to you and
advise you of your rights.
Description of the Litigation
On August 21, 2001, plaintiff Christopher Boehr ("Plaintiff")
filed a class action complaint (the 'Boehr Action') against
American Express alleging that Settlement Class members
incurred additional finance charges and late fees not
authorized by their agreements with American Express
when their payments were received by American Express
after noon or on weekends or holidays because the
payments were not credited until the following business
day. American Express denies any wrongdoing, and has
asserted numerous defenses to both liability and damages.
Among other things, American Express contends that its
payment crediting practice is expressly authorized by its
agreements
with
Settlement
Class
members.
Nevertheless, American Express has agreed to the
proposed Settlement solely to avoid the burden of further
litigation. Plaintiff believes that the claims asserted In the
litigation have merit, but that the proposed Settlement is
fair, reasonable and in the best interest of Settlement Class
members given the risk and expense of further litigation.
The Court has scheduled a hearing on July 30, 2004, at
8:30 a.m. in Department 324 of the Los Angeles County,
California Superior Court, located at 600 S. Commonwealth
Ave., Los Angeles, Califomia 90005, to consider whether
to grant final approval of the Settlement.
Terms of the Proposed Settlement
If the Settlement receives final approval, American Express
will provide the following relief to the Settlement Class:
Monetary Consideration. American Express has deposited
$8,200,000 into an interest-bearing escrow account (with
interest, the 'Settlement Contribution'). After payment from
the Settlement Contribution of escrow costs, Class
Counsel's fees and costs and the incentive award
approved by the Court, American Express will credit or pay
(as applicable) to each member of the Settlement Class a
proportional share of the Settlement Contribution provided
that such member's account has not, at any time prior to
the date the Settlement Contribution is distributed, been
written off by American Express and/or been in collection
and/or been sold for purposes of collection. Distributions
from the Settlement Contribution for corporate accounts will
be paid to the corporate holder of the account rather than
the individual card holders.
Distributions will be made automatically for Settlement
Class members whose accounts are open or who are
receiving periodic statements. Settlement Class members
whose accounts are closed and who are not receiving
periodic statements must submit a timely and properly
completed Claim Form in order to receive a distribution
from the Settlement Contribution.
tf you received this
notice with your periodic statement, you need not submit a
claim form.
Non-Monetary Consideration.
American Express will
amend its cardmember agreements to clarify that payments
received after noon or on weekends or holidays may not be
credited until the following business day.
American
Express also will agree to continue at least until January
27, 2006, its existing practice of not assessing late fees on
revolving credit card accounts for payments received within
24 hours of the payment due date, unless there is a change
in substantive law preventing maintenance of this grace
period.
Attorneys' Fees.
At the final approval hearing, Class
Counsel will make an application to the Court for an award
of attorneys' fees and costs in the amount of $3,000,000
plus a proportional share of net Interest on the Settlement
Contribution. American Express will pay attorneys' fees
and costs awarded by the Court not to exceed this amount.
The attorneys' fees and costs will be paid out of the gross
Settlement Contribution. American Express will also pay a
reasonable and customary incentive award, in an amount
awarded by the Court, but not exceeding $10,000, to
Plaintiff.
Based on their substantial investigation and discovery in
the action, Class Counsel believe that the Settlement is
fair, reasonable and in the best interests of Settlement
Class members.
Your Rights
If the Settlement receives final approval, each member of
the Settlement Class who has not obtained proper and
timely exclusion from the Settlement Class, their respective
heirs, executors, administrators, representatives, agents,
attorneys, partners, successors, predecessors-in-interest,
assigns, and any authorized users of their accounts will be
deemed to have fully released and forever discharged

section:
'Unless otherwise disclosed in a Promotional Offer, we will charge a transaction fee for each Balance Transfer and each
convenience check drawn on your Account. This fee, a Finance Charge, will be 3% of the amount of the convenience check cr
Balance Transfer, with a minimum of $5 and a maximum of $50. However, no maximum will apply to the fee for Balance Transfer

same Purchase or Cash Advance balance as the convenience check transaction or Balance Transfer.'

We are increasing the fee for copies of billing statements to S5 per statement copy requested. Accordingly, we aro amending the Other Fees
section of your Cardmember Agreement applicable to copies of statements by replacing "Sr with-$5."
APR Applicable to Accounts (The changes in those sections will become effective as noted below)
We are amending the Finance Charges section of your Cardmember Agreement as follows:
Determinina the Prime Rate Applicable to Your Accp_unt Effective with billing periods ending in June 2004, we are changing the timing of
when we determine the Prime Rate used to calculate the variable APRs applicable to your Account to the higher of the 1st or 25th day of the
month prior to the month in which your billing period ends.
pPR Applicable to Accounts in Default: Effective with billing periods ending in June 2004, we are changing the Default Rate from a fixed APR
of 23.99% to a variable APR equal to the Prime Rate plus 21.99%. This change will apply to Accounts that are at the Default Rate as of the
effective date as well as Accounts that go into default in the future.
APRs for Failure to Pay on Time'
(I) Effective with billing periods endng on or after July 15, 2004 we are increasing the APR for Purchases for Cardmembers who fail to make
a timely Minimum Payment. If you fail to pay the Minimum Amount Due by the Payment Due Date on time once, but not more than once in a
twelve month period, the APR WI be 17.99% (unless a higher APR applies pursuant to any provision of your Cardmember Agreement). This
APR will be applied until a minimum of twelve billing periods have passed without any failure to pay on time (assuming you have not
triggered any other criteria for application of a higher APR under the Agreement).
(ii) Effective with billing periods ending in May 2004, we are also revising the circumstances in which the Default Rate yid] apply to
your Account.
Accordingly, we are replacing subsections C and D of the Finance Charges section of your Agreement with subsections C, 0 and E as

D. The "Prime Rate" is determined once with respect to each billing period, and applies to the entire billing period. The Prime Rate
for billing periods ending in any calendar month is the highest Prime Rate published in the Money Rates section (or successor
section) of The Wall Street Journal on the 1st or 25th day (or, in each case, if such date is not a business day, the next business
day) of the prior calendar month. If The Wall Street Journal ceases publication or does not publish the Prime Rate on ether of
those dates, we may refer to the Prime Rate published in any other newspaper of general circulation in New York, New York, or we
may substitute a similar reference rate at our sole discretion.
E. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the DPR (and corresponding APR) on all balances will Increase to the Default Rate if during the
Review Period (I) payment of your Minimum Amount Due is not credited to your Account by the Payment Due Date in any two
billing periods, (ii) a payment on your Account is not honored by your bank or other financial institution, or (iii) you exceed any
designated credit limit on your Account three or more times. The "Review Period" is the period, constituting approximately one
year, of twelve consecutive billing periods ending with the Closing Date of the current biting period, whether or not you received a
statement for each such billing period. If the Default Rate is rippled, it will apply to your Account for a minimum of twelve
consecutive billing periods, beginning with the current billing period. The Default Rate Is a OPR which corresponds to an APR
equal to the Prime Rate plus 21.99%."
Monthly Payment-Minimum Amount Due (Effective with billing periods ending In June 2004)
We are changing the calculation of the Minimum Amount Due on your Account. In some cases, as described below, we will increase the
MINIM= Amount Due by $15. Accordingly, we are replacing the third paragraph of your Agreement entitled Billing Statements/Minimum
Amount Due with the following:
'Each billing statement will reflect a Minimum Amount Due. Payment is due by the time and date shown and in the manner
prescribed on the statement. To calculate the Minimum Amount Due we will add together the following:
(1) any amount past due;
(2) the greatest of:
a)
1/50th of the New Balance on the Closing Date of the bllkng statement (the calculation of which is rounded
to the nearest whole dollar) (for purposes of this calculation we exclude from the New Balance any over-emit
fee added to your Account during the billing period),
b)
the current billed Finance Charges, or
e)
$15 (or the New Balance if it is less than $15); and
(3) any over-limit fee added to your Account during the biting period.
If the greatest of the three calculations in section (2) above is the current billed Finance Charges, then we will add $15to the
calculation of the Minimum Amount Due. At our option, we may also include in the Minimum Amount Due all or part of other fees
incurred during the takrig period and any part of the New Balance in excess of your credit line.
The Minimum Amount Due will not exceed the New Balance. You may pay more than the Minimum Amount Due, up to the entire
outstanding balance, at any time'

Lost or Stolen Card: If the Card is lost or stolen, in the U.S. immediately telephone us at the number noted to the right.
Outside the U.S. contact the nearest American Express Travel Service Office or call any local American Express office.
Finance Charges: Average Daily Balance Method for Calculation of Finance Charges (FC):We use the Average
Daily Balance method to calculate FC on your Account. Under this method, we figure the FC on your Account by applying
the daily periodic rate to the Average Daily Balance (as desaibed below) for each feature (such as Purchase, Gash
Advance and Balance Transfer features) of your Account (including current transactions). To get the Average Daily
Balance for each feature, we (1) take the begnning balance for the feature each day (including unpaid FC from previous
billing periods), (2) add any new transactions, debits, or fees, (3) subtractany payments or credits, and (4) make any
appropriate adjustments. For each day after the first day or the billing period, we also add en amount of
Interest equal to the previous day's daily balance multiplied by the daily periodic rate for the feature.
This gives us the daily balance for the feature for that day and the beemniat balance for the feature for the next day. If this
ce
balan
is negative, it is considered to be zero. Then, we add up all the d
balances for the feature for the biling period
and dvide the total by the number of days in the billing period. This gives us tthe Average Daily Balance for the feature. For
all features except Cash Advances and certain promotions, the Average Daily Balance will be considered to be zero if ypu
paid the New Balance, if any, shown on your previous month's statement by the Payment Due Date shown on that
statement. If you multiply the Average Daily Balance for each feature by the number of days in the Oiling period and the
daily periodic rate for that feature, the result will be the FC assessed on that feature, except for variations caused ppvv
roaming. The total FC for the biding period is calculated by adding the FC assessed on all features of the Account. 71(s
method-of calculating the Average Daily Balance and PC resufts In daily compounding of FC. The minimum
FC for any billingfericd in which FC are im_
posed la $0.50.

Finance Charges: Average Daily Balance Method for Calculation of Finance Charges (FC):We use the Average
Daily Balance method to raindate FC on your Account. Under this method, we figure the FC on your Account by applWng
the daily periodic rate to the Average Daily Balance (as described below) for each feature (such as Purchase,
Advance and Balance Transfer features) of your Account (inducing current transactions). To get the Average Daily
Balance for each feature, we (1) take the begnning balance for the feature each day (including unpaid FC from previous
billing periodasii, j(2) add any new transactions, debits,. or fees, (3) subtract any payments or credits, and (4) make any
appropriate
stments. For each day after the first day of the billing period, we also add an amount of
interest equ
to the previous day's daily balance multiplied by the (ley periodic rete for the feature.
This gives us the daily balance for the feature for that day and the beginning balance for the feature for the next day. if this
balance is negative, it is considered to be zero. Then, we add up all the daily balances for the feature for the billing period
and divide the total &y the number of days in the billing period. This gives us the Average Daily Balance for the feature. For
all features except Cash Advances and certain promotions, the Average Daily Balance will be considered to be zero if you
paid the New Balance, if any, shown on your previous month's statement by the Payment Due Date shown on that
statement. If you multiply the Average Daly Balance for each feature by the number of days in the billing period and the
daily periodic rate for that feature, the result will be the FC assessed on that feature, except for variations caused by
rouncfing. The total FC for the baling period is calculated by adding the FC assessed on al features of the Account. This
method of calculating the Average Daily Balance and FC results in daily compounding of FC. The minimum
FC for any billingferiod in which FC are imposed is $0.50.

Finance Charges: Average Daily Balance Method for Calculation of Finance Charges (FC):We use the Average
Daily Balance method to calculate FC on your Account. Under this method, we figure the PC on your Account by applying
the daily periodic rate to the Average Daily Balance (as described belOw) kir each feature ((such as Purchase, Cash
Advance and Balance Transfer features) of your Account (including current transactions). To get the Average Daily
Balance for each feature, we (1) take the beginning balance for the feature each day (including unpaid FC from previous
billing periods), (2) add any new transactions, debits, or fees, (3) subtract any payments or credits, and (4) make any
appropriate ad ustrnents. For each day eller the first day of the billing period, we also add en amount of
interest equal to the previous day's daffy balance multiplied
b eig nning balance
daily periodic reds for the feature.
This gives us the daily balance for the feature for that day and the beginning balance for the feature for the next day. If this
balance is negative, it is considered to be zero. Then, we add up all the daily balances for the feature for the billing period
and divide the total by the number of days in the billing period. This gives us the Average Daily Balance for the feature. For
all features except Cash Advances and certain promotions, the Average Daily Balance will be considered to be zero if you
paid the New Balance if any, shown on your previous month's statement by the Payment Due Date shown on that
statement. If you multiply the Average Daily Balance for each feature by the number of days in the billing period and the
daily periodic rate for hat feature, the result will be the FC assessed on that feature, except for variations caused bbyy
rouncing. The total FC for the baling period is calculated by adding the FC assessed on all features of the Account. This
method of calculating the Average Daily Balance end FC results in daily compounding of Fa The minimum
FC for any biting period In which FC are Imposedis $0.50.

Lost or Stolen Card: If the Card is lost or stolen, in the U.S. immediately telephone us at the number noted to the right.
Outside the U.S. contact the nearest American Er press Travel Service Office or call any local American Express office.
Finance Charges: Average Daily Balance Method for Calculation of Finance Charges (FC):We use the Average
Daily Balance method to calculate FC on your Account. Under th's method, we figure the FC on your Account by applyng'
the daily periodic rate to the Average Daily Balance (as described below) for each feature (such as Purchase, Cash
Advance and Balance Transfer features) of your Account (including current transactions). To get the Average Daily
Balance for each feature, we (1) take the beginning balance for the feature each day (including unpaid FC from previous
billing periods), (2). add any new transactions, debks, or fees, (3) subtract any payments or credits, and (4) make any
appropriate adustments. For each day after the first day of the billing period, we also add an amount of
ireerest equal to the previous day's daily balance multiplied by the daily periodic rate for the feature.
This gives us the daily balance for the feature for that day and the beginningbalance for the feature for the next day. If this
balance is negative, it is considered to be zero. Then, we add up all Me der balances for the feature for the billing period
and (Wide the total by the number of days in the biting period. This gives us the Average Daily Balance for the feature. For
all features except Cash Advances and certain promotions, the Average Daly Balance will be considered to be zero if you
paid the New Balance, if any, shown on your previous months statement by the Payment Due Date shown on that
statement. If you multiply the Average Daily Balance for each feature by the number of days in the billing period and the
daily periodic rate for that feature, the result will be the FC assessed on that feature, except for variations caused by
rounding. The total FC for the billing period is calculated by adding the FC assessed on all features of the Account. This
method of calculating the Average Daily Balance end FC results in daily compounding of FC. The minimum
FC for any billing period in which FC are imposed is $0.50.
Billing Rights Summon.: In Case of Errors or Questions About Your Bill: If you think your bill is incorrect, cr if
you needmere information about a transaction on your bill, write us on a separate sheet of paper at the address noted to the

How to Save up to 15% Off a Shopping Bill in Europe
When shopping in the European Union countries, VAT (equivalent to
sales tax) is included in the prices that you see, rather than added on
at the cash register. As a resident outside of the European Union, one
can reclaim up to 15% off the purchase price when leaving the
country. And, so not to waste time at the airport foreign exchange
desks, one can simply indicate on the form that they would like the
refund to be credited to their American Express® Card.
A person must be resident outside of the European Union in order to benefit from tax-free
shopping. VAT rates and minimum spending requirements vary by country. Please refer to
wvnvemericanexpress.cornaraveltIps for further details.
To find out more about
tax-free shopping, please
visit vNiw.amerIcan
express.comnraveltIps.
Please don't forget to ask
a representative from
Customs and Excise to
stamp the form upon foal
departure.

Finance Charges: Average Daily. Balance Method for Calculation of Finance Charges (FC):We use the Average
Daily Balance method to calculate FC on your Account. Under this method, we figure the PC on ycur Account by applying
the daily periodic rate to the Average Daily Balance (as described below) for each feature (such as Purchase, Cash
Advance and Balance Transfer features)7 of your Account (including current transactions). To get the Average Daily
Balance for each feature, we (1) take the beginning balance for the feature each day (incUdLng unpaid FC from previous
billing periods), (2) add any new transactions, debits, or fees, (3) suited any payments Cr credits, and (4) make any
appropriate adantinents. For each day after the first multipliedof
billing period, we also add en amount of
interest equal to the previous day's daily balance
by the daily periodic rate for the feature.
This gives us the daily balance for the feature for that day and the beginning balance for the feature for the next day. If this
balance is negative, it is considered to be zero. Then, we add up all the daily balances for the feature for the biting period
andavid° the total by the number of days in the bang period. This gives us the Average Daily Balance for the feature. For
all features except Cash Advances and certain promotions, the Average Daily Balance wall be considered to be zero if you
paid the New Balance, if any, shown on your previous month's statement by the Payment Due Date shown on that
statement. If you multiply the Average Daly Balance for each feature by the number of days in the billing period and the
daily periodic rate for that feature, the result will be the FC assessed on that feature, except for variations caused by
rounding. The total FC for the billing period is calculated by adding the FC assessed on all features of the Account. This
method- of calculating the Average Daily Balance and FC results fn daily compounding of FC. The minimum
FC for any billing perlod in which FC are imposed is $0.50.

Outside the U.S. contact the nearest American Express Travel Service Office or call any local American Express office.
Finance Charges: Average Daily Balance Method for Calculation of Finance Charges (FC):We use the Average
Daily Balance method to calculate FC on your Account. Under this method, we figure the FC on your Account by aPPleg
the daily periodicrate to the Average Daily Balance (as described below) for each feature (such as Purchase, Cash
Advance and Balance Transfer features) of your Account (including current transactions). To get the Average Daily
Balance for each feature, we (1) take the beginning balance for the feature each day (including unpaid FC from previous
billing periods), (2) add any now transactions,
or foes, (3) subtract any payments or credits, and (4) make any
appropriate adustrnents. For each day after the first day of the billing period, we also add an amount of
interest equal to the previous clay's daily balance multiplied by the daily periodic rate lot the feature.
This gives us the daily balance for the feature for that day and the beginning balance for the feature for the next day. If
balance is negative, it is considered to be zero. Then, we add up all the daily balances for the feature for the billing period
and divide the total by the number of days in the biting period. This gives us the Average Daily Balance for the feature. For
all features except Cash Advances and certain promotions, the Average Daily Balance will be considered to be zero if You
paid the New Balance if any, shown on your previous month'sstatement by the Payment Due Date shown on that
statement. If you rarity the Average Daily Balance for each feature by the number of days in the biting period and the
daily periodic rate for at feature, the result will be the FC assessed on that feature, except for variations caused
pouncing. The total FC for the billing period is calculated by adding the FC assessed on all features of the Account. This
method of calculteing the Average Daily Belem* end FC results in daily compounding of FC. The minimum
FC for any billing period in which FC are imposed is $0.50.

Lost or Stolen Card: If the Card is lost or stolen, in the U.S. immediately telephone us at the number noted to the right.
Outside the U.S. contact the nearest American Express Travel Service Office or call any local American Express office.
Finance Charges: Average Daily Balance Method for Calculation of Finance Charges (FC):We use the Average
Daily Balance method to calculate FC on your Account. Under this method, we figure the FC on your Account by anteing
the daily periodic rate to the Average Daily Balance (as described below) for each feature (such as Purchase, Cash
Advance and Balance Transfer features) of your Account (including current transactions). To get the Average Daily
Balance for each feature, we (1) take the beginning balance for the feature each day (including unpaid FC from previous
billing periodsi , (2) add any new transactions, defoits, or fees, (3) subtract any payments or credts, and (4) make any
appropriate a ustments. For each day after the first day of the billing period, we also add an amount of
Interest equal to the previous days daily balance multiplied by the dally periodic rate for the feature.
This gives us the daily balance for the feature for that day and the beginning balance for the feature for the next day. If this
balance is negative, ft is considered to be zero. Then, we add yp all the daily balances for the feature for the billing period
and divide the total by the number of days in the billing period. This gives us the Average Daily Balance for the feature. For
ail features except Cash Advances ancf cenain promotions, the Average Daily Balance wit: be considered to be zero if you
paid the New Balance, if any, shown on your previous month's statement by the Payment Due Date shown cn that
statement. If you multiply the Average Daily Balance for each feature by the number of days in the billing period and the
daily periodic rate for that feature, the result will be the FC assessed on that feature, except for variations caused by
rounding. The trial FC for the billing period is calculated by adding the FC assessed on all features of the Account. This
method of calculating the Average Daily Balance and FC results in dally compounding of PC. The minimum
FC for any billingff rid: in which FC are imposed is $0.50.

day. Payments must be in US Dollars and drawn on a bank located in the US (other than a line of credit check

remittance stub attached and account number listed on the check Please do not send .post-dated checks. They will
be deposited upon receipt. If payment is made in any other form or at any other location, there may be a delay in
processing. We reserve the right to process checks electronically, at first presentment and any re-presentments,
by transmitting the amount of the check, routing number, account number and check serial number to your financial
institution. Your checking account may be debited as soon as the same day we receive your payment. If we cannot
collect the funds electronically at first presentment, we may issue a draft against your account for the amount
of the check. Authorization for Electronic Payments:By using the American Express Pay By Computer,

Lost or Stolen Card: If the Card is lost or stolen, in the U.S. immediately telephone us at the number noted to the right.
Outside the U.S. contact the nearest American Express Travel Service Office or call any local American Express office.
Finance Charges: Average Daily Balance Method for Calculation of Finance Charges (FC):We use the Average
Daily Balance method to calailate FC on your AceOurit. Under this method, we figure the FC on your Account by applying
the daily periodic rate to the Average Daily Balance (as described below) for each feature (such as Purchase, Cash
Advance and Balance Transfer features) of your Account (includng current transactions). To get the Average Daily
Balance for each feature, we (1) take the beginning balance for the feature each day (ineudrng unpaid FC from previous
billing periods),
u (2) add any new transactions, debits, or fees, (3) subtract any payments or credits, and (4) make any
appropriate a ustments. For each day after the first day of the billing period, we also add an amount of
interest eq
to the previous days daily balance multiplied by the daily periodic rate for the feature.
This gives us the daily balance for the Feature for that day and the beginning balance for the feature for the next day. If this
balance is negative, it is considered to be zero. Then, we add up all, the at, balances for the feature for the biting period
and divide the total by the number of days in the billing period. Thus gives us the Average Daily Balance for the feature. For
all features except Cash Advances and certain promotions, the Average Daily Balance wil be considered to be zero if yOu
paid the New Balance, if any, shown on your previous month's statement by the Payment Due Date shown on that
statement. If you multiply the Average Daily Balance for each feature by the number of days in the baling period and the
daily periodic rate for that feature, the result will be the FC assessed on that feature, except for variations caused by
rounding. The total FC for the billing period is calculated by adding the FC assessed on all features of the Account. This
method of calculating the Average Daffy Balance and FC results In daily compounding of FC. The minimum
FC for any billing periodin whith FC are imposed is $0.50.
Billing Rights Summary: In Case of Errors or Questions About Your Bill: If you think your bill is incorrect, or if
you need more information about a transaction on your bill, write us on a separate sheet of paper at the address noted to the

Finance Charges: Average Daily Balance Method for Calculation of Finance Charges (FC):We use the Average
Daily Balance method to calculate FC on your Account. Under this method, we figure the FC on your Account by wooing
the daily periodic rate to the Average Daily Balance (as described below) for each feature Isuch as Purchase,iCash
Advance and Balance Transfer features) of your Account (including current transactions). To get the Average Daily
Balance for each feature, we (1) take the beginning balance for the feature each day (including unpaid FC from previous
billing pericds), (2) add any new transactions, &Oils, or lees, (3) subtract any payments or credits, and (4) make any
appropriate aderstments. For each day after the first day of the billing period, we also add en amount of
keenest equal to the previous day's daily balance multiplied by the dally periodic rate for the feature.
This gives us tho daily balance for the feature for that day and the beginning
for the feature for the next day. If this
balance is negative, it is considered to be zero. Then, we add pp all the
balances for the feature for the billing period
and divide the total loy the number of days in the billing period. This gives us he Average Daily Balance for the feature. Per
all features except Cash Advances and certain promotions, the Average Daily Balance will be considered to be zero if you
paid the New Balance, if any, shown on your previous month's statement by the Payment Due Date shown on that
statement. If you multiply the Average Daily Balance for each feature by the number of days In the Wing period and the
daily periodic rate for that feature, the result will be the FC assessed on that feature, except for variations caused by
rounding. The total FC for the billing period is calculated by adding the FC assessed on al features of the Account. This
method-of calculating the Average Daily Balance and FC results in daily compounding of FC. The minimum
FC for any billing periodinwhich FC are imposed is $0.50.

Finance Charges: Average Daily Balance Method for Calculation of Finance Charges (FC):We use the Average
Daily Balance method to calculate FC on your Account. Under this method, we figure the FC on your Aotount by applying
the daily periodic rate to the Average Daily Balance (as deserted below) for each feature (such as Purchase,-Cmh
Advance and Balance Transfer features) of your Account (including current transactions). To get the Average Daily
Balance br each feature, we (1) take the beginning balance for the feature each day (including unpaid FC from previous
billing periods) (2) add any new transactions, debits, or fees, (3) subtract any payments or credits, and (4) make any
appropriate a ustments. For each day after the first day of the billing period, we also add an amount of
interest equ
to the previous day's daily balance multiplied by the daily periodic rate for the feature.
This gives us the daily balance for the feature for that day and the Wginning balance for the feature for the next day. II this
balance is negative it is considered to be zero. Then, we add up all Me daily balances for the feature for the billing period
and dvide the total by the number of days in the billing period. This gives us the Average Daily Balance for the feature. For
all features except Cash Advances and certain promotions, the Average Daily Feennce will be considered to be zero it you
paid the New Balance, if any, shown on your previous month's statement by the Payment Due Date shown on that
statement. If you multiply the Average Daily Balance for each feature by the number of days In the billing period and the
daily periodic rate for that feature, the result will be the FC assessed on that feature, except for variations caused
rounding. The total FC for the billing period is calculated by adding the FC assessed on all features of the Account. 7hIS
method of calculating the Average D* Balance and FC results In daily compounding of FC. The minimum
FC fore any
e: billingff riod in which FC are imposed is $0.50.
