This Credit Protection Program Agreement and Disclosure (“Agreement”) contains all of the terms applicable to the

Agreement, bene ts speci cally apply to the primary cardholder on this Account. Protection is not applicable to a joint

purchase the Program.
EXPLANATION OF THE PROGRAM: If eligible, the Program will pay the Minimum Payment Due, as shown on your billing
statement. This Agreement describes the speci c circumstances under which the Minimum Payment Due may be paid for
up to six (6) bene t payments if the primary cardholder becomes involuntarily unemployed or disabled. If your Account is
covered by the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act when you initiate bene ts, the payment will be equal to 5% of your ending
statement balance each month, or $30.00 whichever is greater. In the event of the primary cardholder’s death, the Account

We will provide Program bene ts for the three (3) Qualifying Events (involuntary unemployment, disability, and loss of life)
as outlined in this Agreement when they are experienced by the primary cardholder, as long as the Program requirements
are met. As long as you maintain this Program on your Account and pay the applicable fee, you can use the Program as
many times as needed, subject to conditions outlined in this Agreement.
The Program fee is based on your monthly billing statement New Balance, up to $10,000. The Program fee is billed in
advance on a monthly basis for bene t coverage during the next billing cycle. The cost of Credit Protection is $0.96 (96
cents) for each $100, or part thereof, of the New Balance on your monthly billing statement. The Program fee will be billed
monthly to your Credit One Bank credit card account, and will appear on your statement. For example, if the New Balance
on your statement is $300, the cost for that month would be $0.96 (96 cents) multiplied by 3 for a total of $2.88. If your
New Balance is zero, then there is no cost.
