Transaction Limits 11.1 A maximum daily transaction limit applies to your Card Account for cash withdrawals through an ATM. The maximum daily transaction limit for ATMs is $1, Rabobank may set permanent and temporary limits on the minimum and maximum Transaction amounts Temporary restrictions may be imposed on your Card Account in circumstances where Transactions appear to be suspicious or fraudulent. For example, we may temporarily reduce the Credit Limit in order to reduce the remaining funds available on your Card Account. In these circumstances, we will use reasonable endeavours to notify you that we have imposed a temporary restriction on your Card Account Where we impose a new permanent minimum or maximum transaction limit on your Card Account or vary an existing permanent minimum or maximum transaction limit on your Card Account, we will inform you of this change in accordance with the requirements set out in section 34 of these Conditions of Use. Please note merchants may impose their own transaction limits or restrictions on the amount of cash or value that a cardholder may obtain with a Visa Credit Card. 12. Credit Limit 12.1 Subject to any transaction limits which we may impose in accordance w ith section 11, Rabobank will make funds available to you up to the Credit Limit. The Credit Limit applies to the Card Account and there is not an additional Credit Limit for any additional Visa Credit Card that is issued 12.2 If a Transaction is presented for processing which would cause the Unpaid Daily Balance to exceed the Credit Limit, (whether caused by you approving the Transaction at an Electronic Banking Terminal or otherwise), you agree that this will operate as a request from you for us to consider whether to honour the Transaction. We may charge the dishonour fee set out in the Financial Table if we decide not to honour a Transaction Transactions which are below certain monetary limits (which are set by the relevant merchant s financial institution) and where no electronic approvals are in place or Transactions that are processed manually are not submitted to us for an assessment of whether they would cause the Unpaid Daily Balance to exceed the Credit Limit before they proceed. Accordingly, in these circumstances your Unpaid Daily Balance may exceed your Credit Limit without our authorisation If you conduct a Transaction which results in your Unpaid Daily Balance exceeding your Credit Limit, Rabobank is not increasing your Credit Limit. If the Credit Limit is exceeded without Rabobank approval, you must immediately repay to Rabobank any amount in excess of your Credit Limit. In these circumstances, Rabobank: (1) within 2 business days of becoming aware that you have exceeded your Credit Limit, will contact you to notify you that your Unpaid Daily Balance has exceeded your Credit Limit; and (2) until you have repaid any amount in excess of your Credit Limit, may prevent you and your Additional Cardholders from using your Visa Credit Card. Rabobank Visa Platinum Credit Card Conditions of Use 8

9 Rabobank may not contact you in these circumstances if you have already repaid the amount in excess of your Credit Limit within that period of 2 business days You may ask Rabobank to permanently or temporarily increase your Credit Limit at any time. Rabobank is not required to agree to any such request. If Rabobank forms the view that your financial circumstances do not justify a permanent or temporary increase in your Credit Limit (in Rabobank s opinion) or the increase in the Credit Limit is unsuitable for you (in Rabobank s opinion), Rabobank will not agree to increase your Credit Limit. Rabobank may only increase your Credit Limit at your request or with your written consent. However, Rabobank may reduce your Credit Limit or stop providing further credit without your consent. In these circumstances, Rabobank will give you written notice prior to Rabobank reducing your Credit Limit (refer to section 33) unless circumstances exist where we reasonably believe that your use of the Visa Credit Card or Card Account may cause loss to you or Rabobank. This could include circumstances where you are in default pursuant to the terms and conditions set out in this Credit Contract or where Rabobank suspects that your Visa Credit Card or Card Account has been compromised. You can request that Rabobank reduce your Credit Limit at any time by contacting our Client Services. To have your Credit Limit reduced, your Unpaid Daily Balance must be less than the requested Credit Limit. 13. Monthly Spend Limits 13.1 For each Visa Credit Card (including any Visa Credit Card of an Additional Cardholder) that is attached to the Card Account, the Primary Cardholder may set a Monthly Spend Limit. If no Monthly Spend Limit is set by you for a Visa Credit Card, the Monthly Spend Limit applicable for that Visa Credit Card defaults to the available balance remaining on the Card Account (being the Credit Limit minus the Unpaid Daily Balance) A Monthly Spend Limit may be set by the Primary Cardholder by: in relation to the Primary Cardholder s Visa Credit Card, the Primary Cardholder requesting this at the time of submitting the credit card application to the Rabobank; in relation to an Additional Cardholder s Visa credit Card, setting this at the time the Primary Cardholder completes the application requesting that the additional Visa Credit Card be attached to the Card Account; or contacting our Client Services on In these circumstances, Rabobank will then immediately arrange for the applicable Monthly Spend Limit to apply to the relevant Visa Credit Card and such request usually will take effect within one hour of Rabobank receiving the request The Monthly Spend Limit for a Visa Credit Card resets at the start of each statement period. If, in any relevant month, the Monthly Spend Limit is reached for a Visa Credit Card, the relevant cardholder (being the Primary Cardholder or the Additional Cardholder) will not be able to perform any further Transactions on the Card Account using the relevant Visa Credit Card until such time as the Monthly Spend Limit resets. In these circumstances the Primary Cardholder may contact Rabobank to increase the Monthly Spend Limit for the applicable Visa Credit Card, however any such increase that is requested by the Primary Cardholder will be permanent, until you contact Rabobank to change the Monthly Spend Limit in accordance with section 13.4 below The Primary Cardholder must contact Rabobank if you wish to reduce or increase a Monthly Spend Limit. Rabobank will then arrange for the Monthly Spend Limit to be reduced or increased. Such request will usually take effect within one hour after Rabobank receives the request subject to any requisite credit approval process When an Additional Cardholder completes Transactions, this will increase the Unpaid Daily Balance. An Additional Cardholder will be restricted from accessing his or her Monthly Spend Limit in circumstances where the Unpaid Daily Balance equals or exceeds the Credit Limit Any repayments to the Card Account are applied to reduce the Unpaid Daily Balance (see section 20.3 below) and are not applied to any Monthly Spend Limit If the Primary Cardholder or an Additional Cardholder (as the case may be) exceeds his or her Monthly Spend Limit applicable to their Visa Credit Card, any recurring payment arrangements that are established by the that cardholder may not be processed and in such circumstances, the relevant cardholder will be required to contact the relevant merchant to discuss alternative payment methods. 14. Authorisations and processing of Transactions 14.1 Certain Transactions on your Card Account may need to be authorised by us before they can proceed. In these circumstances, prior to the Transaction being completed, the relevant merchant s financial institution will obtain authorisation from us for the Transaction to be processed. Once authorisation is obtained, it will reduce the amount of available funds on your Card Account. If circumstances occur where authorisation is obtained from us but the relevant Transaction is not completed, your available funds may be reduced for a certain period of time Transactions will not necessarily be processed to your Card Account on the same day that you conduct the relevant Transaction. The date that Rabobank processes a Transaction and applies that Transaction to your Card Account is referred to as the Transaction Statement Date. The Transaction Statement Date is the date that appears on your Monthly Credit Card Statement. Rabobank will calculate all interest charges from the Transaction Statement Date unless section 19 provides otherwise Where you make multiple Transactions on your Card Account on the same day, they are posted to your account in the same order as they are processed Rabobank may subsequently adjust the Transaction Statement Date of Transactions in relation to your Card Account to correctly reflect the legal obligations of you and Rabobank (for example, if a manual Transaction is incorrectly processed Rabobank has the right to refuse authorisation for you to effect any Transaction if: Rabobank has suspended your Card Account in accordance with these Conditions of Use (re fer to section 24); or the Transaction will result in your Unpaid Daily Balance exceeding your Credit Limit. 15.

Refer to the Financial Table The date your Monthly Credit Card Statement is issued is called the statement date and the period from one statement date to the next statement date is called the statement period There is no facility available to make repayments overseas. However, if you are overseas when a payment is due, you must still ensure that any minimum repayments are made In July each year, Rabobank will send to the Primary Cardholder a Year-End Spend Summary Statement. All amounts shown on the Year-End Spend Summary Statement will be in Australian dollars. You may request an additional copy of your Year-End Spend Summary Statement at any time however fees and charges will apply. Refer to the Financial Table. 16. Transactions debited to your Card Account 16.1 Rabobank will deduct from your Card Account balance (which will increase the balance owing to Rabobank) the value of all Transactions carried out by the use of your Visa Credit Card. Rabobank will (in the first instance) consider a Transaction as having been authorised by you when: you conduct a Transaction; your Visa Credit Card is used to conduct a Transaction; or your Visa Credit Card is presented to a merchant (or someone else on behalf of a merchant) in a way acceptable to Rabobank Fraudulent transactions can occur on your Visa Credit Card. Where you advise Rabobank that a Transaction that has been debited from your Card Account balance (which will increase the balance owing to Rabobank) is fraudulent, unauthorised or disputed, Rabobank will investigate and review that Transaction in accordance with section 31 of these Conditions of Use All Purchases, Cash Advances, Balance Transfers, interest charges and fees and charges will be debited from your Card Account balance in accordance with these Conditions of Use. All amounts debited from your Card Account will form part of your Unpaid Daily Balance. 17. Fees and charges 17.1 The fees and charges outlined in the Financial Table apply. You agree to pay to Rabobank all fees and charges that are set out in the Financial Table. Rabobank will deduct these fees and charges from your Card Account balance (which will increase the balance owing to Rabobank) by debiting the amount of the fee or charge in accordance wi th this section 17 and the Financial Table. All fees and charges that are set out in the Financial Table are inclusive of GST If you consider Rabobank has incorrectly charged you a fee or charge, you may dispute this by contacting Rabobank in accordance with section 31. Any incorrectly charged fee or charge will be reversed by Rabobank The Card Account will be debited (which will increase the balance owing to Rabobank) with the Annual Card Fee following activation by the Primary Cardholder of the Card Account, unless the Card Account features a waiver of the first year s Annual Card Fee. This Annual Card Fee is then charged in subsequent years on each anniversary after the activation of the Card Account, unless waived by Rabobank. Refer to the Financial Table When an Additional Cardholder activates an Additional Cardholder s Visa Credit Card, the Additional Cardholder Fee will be debited from the Card Account balance (which will increase the balance owing to Rabobank). This Additional Cardholder Fee is then charged in subsequent years on each anniversary after the activation of the Additional Cardholder s Visa Credit Card. 18. Government fees and charges Rabobank reserves the right to pass on to you any fees, charges, duties and taxes that are imposed on the use of your Visa Credit Card by any government or by any regulatory authority. You authorise Rabobank to debit your Card Account balance (which will increase the balance owing to Rabobank) with those fees, charges, duties and taxes. 19. Interest charges 19.1 Calculation of Interest Charges Interest on outstanding Cash Advances may be charged differently to interest charged on outstanding Non-Cash Advances Cash Advances For all Cash Advances, interest is calculated on the value of the Transaction from and including the Transaction Statement Date. The Annual Percentage Rate that applies to Cash Advances is shown in the Financial Table. No interest-free period applies for Cash Advances. Refer to section below. Accordingly, you will be charged interest on all Cash Advances in accordance with section Non-Cash Advances For all Non-Cash Advances, interest is calculated on the value of the Transaction from and including the Transaction Statement Date. However, if an interest-free period applies, interest will not be charged during that period and you will not have to pay any interest on the value of transactions made during that period if you pay the full amount of the Closing Balance set out in the Monthly Credit Card Statement for that period by the due date specified in that Monthly Credit Card Statement. Refer to sections 19.7 to below. The Annual Percentage Rate that applies to Non-Cash Advances is shown in the Financial Table Balance Transfers If a Balance Transfer Offer applies, then the Annual Percentage Rate that applies for Balance Transfers (which is set out in the Financial Table or any written promotion that we offer), will apply to all Balance Transfers up until the expiry date that is set out in the Financial Table or on any written promotion that we offer. After this expiry date has passed, the Unpaid Daily Balance on any Balance Transfers that remains unpaid will be subject to the Annual Percentage Rate that applies for Cash Advances Special Promotions Rabobank Visa Platinum Credit Card Conditions of Use 10

11 If a Special Promotion applies, then the Annual Percentage Rate that applies during the period of the Special Promotion will be set out in the Financial Table or any written promotion that we offer. If you do not repay the amount of any Transaction that applies to the Special Promotion by the relevant expiry date of that Special Promotion, then from that date: (1) where the relevant Transaction is a Non-Cash Advance, then the unpaid amount of the relevant Transaction will be treated as a Non-Cash Advance and interest will be charged on that Transaction and any such Interest Charges in accorda nce with section 19.3; or (2) where the relevant Transaction is a Cash Advance, then unpaid amount of the relevant Transaction will be treated as a Cash Advance and interest will be charged on that Transaction in accord ance with section 19.2 but the unpaid amount of any such Interest Charges will be treated as a Non-Cash Advance and interest will be charged on that Transaction and any such Interest Charges in accordance with section Calculation of Interest Charges The interest charges on: (1) all Cash Advances; and (2) all Non-Cash Advances; and (3) any Transactions where a Balance Transfer Offer or Special Promotion applies, are calculated daily, by applying the Daily Interest Rate separately to the Unpaid Daily Balances of Cash Advances, and Non-Cash Advances and any Transactions where a Balance Transfer Offer or Special Promotion applies. The total amount of interest charges debited to the Card Account balance (which will increase the balance owing to Rabobank) is the sum of the interest charges on: (4) all Cash Advances; and (5) any Non-Cash Advances not receiving the benefit of any interest-free period (refer to sections 19.7 to below); and (6) any Transactions where a Balance Transfer Offer or Special Promotion applies, for the number of days in the statement period. All interest charges for the relevant statement period will be deducted from the Card Account balance (which will increase the balance owing) on the last day of the relevant statement period Interest-free period for Purchases If an interest-free period applies to a Purchase, it will consist of: (1) the initial interest-free days which starts from the Transaction Statement Date and ends on the statement date (being the date the Monthly Credit Card Statement is issued); and (2) further interest-free days which starts after the statement date (being the date the Monthly Credit Card Statement is issued) and ends on the due date or payment date (whichever comes first). Each Monthly Credit Card Statement sets out your Closing Balance on the Card Account at the end of the statement period and the due date for payments for that statement period. The date your Monthly Credit Card Statement is issued is called the statement date When does the initial interest free days condition apply? The initial interest-free days will apply to Purchases if you pay the Closing Balance in full by the due date shown on the Monthly Credit Card Statement that immediately precedes the relevant Purchases When does the further interest free days condition apply? Purchases will have further interest-free days, only if: (1) you have paid the Closing Balance in full by the due date shown on the Monthly Credit Card Statement that immediately precedes the relevant Purchases (i.e. the initial interest-free days condition has been met); and (2) you pay the Closing Balance in full by the due date shown on the Monthly Credit Card Statement that records the relevant Purchases How many further interest free days apply to the Card Account? Your Financial Table sets out the maximum number of interestfree days that apply to Purchases. The number of interest-free days will depend on the date of the relevant Purchase and the due date to pay the Closing Balance for the relevant statement period What happens if payment is not made in full? If you do not pay the full amount of the Closing Balance on a Monthly Credit Card Statement in full by the due date shown on that Monthly Credit Card Statement, then interest will be charged on: (1) any unpaid Purchases outstanding from the previous Monthly Credit Card Statement; and (2) all new Purchases. This means that no interest-free period will apply to Purchases made in the current statement period Will an interest-free period apply to all Transactions on your Visa Credit Card? No. An interest-free period will not apply to Cash Advances or Balance Transfers at any time or any Transactions where the full Closing Balance is not repaid by the due date. 20. Payments 20.1 Minimum payment required (1) Where your Closing Balance on your Monthly Credit Card Statement shows an amount owing, you must pay the minimum amount owing by the due date as specified on the Monthly Credit Card Statement. (2) The minimum amount owing is calculated as the greater of $20 or 2% of the Closing Balance. Where your Closing Balance for the relevant Monthly Credit Card Statement is less than $20, the full Closing Balance is payable. (3) If you do not pay the minimum amount owing as shown on your Monthly Credit Card Statement by the due date, Rabobank will charge you a Late Payment Fee (refer to the Financial Table for a description of the amount of this fee and when it will be debited from your Card Account balance (which will increase the balance owing to Rabobank)). (4) You may pay more than the minimum amount owing and may pay all of the Closing Balance. However, if you do this, it does not affect your obligation to pay in full the minimum amount owing that may be due in any subsequent month. (5) Unless Rabobank otherwise notifies you, the due date for payment is the 25th day of the month following the Rabobank Visa Platinum Credit Card Conditions of Use 11

(3) Payments made to your Card Account may not be credited to your Card Account balance (i.e. your balance owing to Rabobank may not be reduced) on the day of lodgement of the payment. The processing of payments can take a number of days. You should allow sufficient time for payment to be received and processed by Rabobank before the due date. (4) You must always pay us in Australian dollars. (5) If an interest free period applies in respect of a Purchase, the minimum amount owing set out in a Credit Card Statement is calculated by including the amount of all unpaid Purchases regardless of the interest free period How we apply your payments All payments made to your Card Account will be applied to credit your Card Account balance (which will reduce the amount owing to Rabobank) in the following order: firstly, to those parts of the Closing Balance on the Card Account (for the end of the previous statement period) that remain payable to Rabobank: (1) which attracts the highest rate of interest; and (2) next, to any part of that Closing Balance that attracts the next highest rate of interest and so on; secondly, to those parts of the Card Account balance (that remains owing to Rabobank after application of payments under the first paragraph of this section) deriving from any Balance Transfer amount; thirdly, to those parts of the Card Account balance (that remain owing to Rabobank after application of payments under the first and second paragraphs of this section): (1) deriving from the earliest Purchases; and (2) next, to that part of the balance derived from the next earliest Purchases and so on; and finally, to those parts of the Card Account balance (that remain owing to Rabobank after application of payments under the first three paragraphs of this section): (1) deriving from the earliest Cash Advances; and (2) next, to that part of the balance derived from the next earliest Cash Advances and so on Refunds Subject to clause 32.3, any refund that is processed on your Card Account will reduce the Unpaid Daily Balance, but will not otherwise affect the calculation of interest charges. However, any refund that is processed by Rabobank will not be deemed to be a payment by you and in these circumstances you will still be required to pay the minimum amount owing by the due date as specified on the Monthly Credit Card Statement. 21. Regular payment arrangements 21.1 You are encouraged to maintain a record of all regular payments you arrange with merchants (including the merchant s name, contact details and the amount(s) and date(s) upon which payments are to be processed). Regular payments can be either a recurring payment or an instalment payment. A regular payment arrangement represents an agreement between you and a merchant in which you preauthorise the relevant merchant to bill your Card Account at predetermined intervals (e.g. monthly or quarterly) or at intervals as agreed by you. The amount may differ or be the same for each transaction. For example, you may ask your local gymnasium to charge your monthly gym membership fee to your Card Account each month or you may have purchased a new television from your local appliance store and are being billed by the merchant in subsequent multiple periods. A template for recording your regular payment arrangements is available from the Australian Payments Clearing Association website ( To either change or cancel any regular payment arrangement, you should contact the relevant merchant at least 15 days prior to the next scheduled payment. Until you notify the merchant, Rabobank is required to process transactions from the merchant. If possible, you should retain a copy of any request to change or cancel any regular payment arrangement. If the merchant does not comply with your request to cancel or change the regular payment arrangement, you may be able to dispute the charges Should your Card Number be changed (i.e. as a result of a lost or stolen card), you must request the merchant(s) to change the details of your existing regular payment arrangement(s). If you do not undertake to notify the merchant of a change in your Visa Credit Card details, your existing regular payment arrangement may either not be honoured by Rabobank or the merchant may stop providing the goods and/or services to you Should you elect to close your Card Account or you Card Account is closed by us, you should contact all merchants with whom you have a regular payment arrangement to revise your regular payment arrangement details as failure to do so may result in the merchant failing to provide you with the relevant goods and/or services. 22.

Your liability in case your Visa Card is lost or stolen or in the case of unauthorised use 29.1 You are not liable for any loss arising from unauthorised use of your Visa Credit Card: (a) where the losses are caused by the fraudulent or negligent conduct of: (i) Rabobank; (ii) employees or agents of Rabobank; (iii) companies involved in networking arrangements; or (iv) merchants or agents or employees of merchants; (b) before you have actually received your Visa Credit Card and PIN and acknowledged receipt of your Visa Credit Card and PIN to Rabobank (such as by activating the Visa Credit Card); (c) subject to section 24.5, where the losses relate to any component of your Visa Credit Card or PIN being forged, faulty, expired or cancelled; (d) where the losses are caused by the same transaction being incorrectly debited more than once to your Card Account; (e) after you have reported it lost or stolen; (f) if you did not contribute to any unauthorised use of your Visa Credit Card; or (g) if the unauthorised transaction was made using your Visa Credit Card information without use of your actual Visa Credit Card or PIN For the purpose of section 30.1(b), there is a presumption that you did not receive your Visa Credit Card unless Rabobank can prove that you received your Visa Credit Card by, for example, obtaining an acknowledgement of receipt from you or (if applicable) obtaining record of your activating your Visa Credit Card For the purpose of section 29.1(f), Rabobank will undertake an assessment to consider whether you have contributed to the loss caused by the unauthorised use of your Visa Credit Card. This assessment will include a review of whether you: (a) voluntarily disclosed your PIN to anyone, including a family member or friend; (b) voluntarily allowed someone else to observe you entering your PIN into an Electronic Banking Terminal; (c) wrote or indicated your PIN on your Visa Credit Card; (d) wrote or indicated your PIN (without making any reasonable attempt to disguise the PIN) on any article carried with your Visa Credit Card or likely to be lost or stolen at the same time as your Visa Credit Card; (e) allowed anyone else to use your Visa Credit Card; (f) unreasonably delayed notification of: (i) your Visa Credit Card or PIN record being lost or stolen; (ii) unauthorised use of your Visa Credit Card; or (iii) the fact that someone else knows your PIN; or Rabobank Visa Platinum Credit Card Conditions of Use 14

15 (g) in relation to a transaction carried out at an ATM, whether the ATM incorporated reasonable safety standards that mitigated the risk of your Visa Credit Card being left in the ATM Where a transaction can be made using your Visa Credit Card but does not require your PIN, you are liable only if you unreasonably delay reporting the loss or theft of your Visa Credit Card If Rabobank considers that it can prove on the balance of probability that you have contributed to the unauthorised use of your Visa Credit Card under section 29.3, your liability will be the lesser of: (a) the actual loss when less than your Card Account balance (including the unused portion of your Credit Limit); (b) your Card Account balance (including the unused portion of your Credit Limit); (c) in relation to Transactions carried out at Electronic Banking Terminals an amount calculated by adding the actual losses incurred for each day or for each relevant period, up to the current daily or other periodic withdrawal limit, on which unauthorised use occurred before you reported the loss, theft or unauthorised use of your Visa Credit Card or breach of PIN security, up to and including the day you make your report; or (d) the amount for which you would be held liable if Visa s scheme rules or other relevant card scheme rules applied (if you wish to find out what card scheme rules apply to transactions made using your Visa Credit Card, please contact Rabobank) In assessing liability under section 29.5(c): (a) where your Visa Credit Card has been lost or stolen, the number of days will be calculated by reference to the day when you should reasonably have become aware that it was lost or stolen; and (b) the current daily withdrawal limit is the limit applicable at the time of the Transaction, by reference to the status and/or type of Electronic Banking Terminal at which the Transaction occurred Where a code (e.g. a PIN) was required to perform the unauthorised Transaction and it is unclear whether or not you have contributed to any loss caused by unauthorised use of your Visa Credit Card, your liability will be the lesser of: (a) $150, or a lower figure determined by Rabobank; (b) your Card Account balance (including the unused portion of your Credit Limit); (c) the actual loss at the time Rabobank is notified of the loss or theft of your Visa Credit Card or the breach of your PIN security, excluding the portion of the losses incurred on any one day which exceeds any relevant daily transaction or other periodic transaction limit; or (d) the amount for which you would be held liable if Visa s scheme rules or other relevant card scheme rules applied (if you wish to find out what card scheme rules apply to transactions made using your Visa Credit Card, please contact Rabobank) In assessing your liability under this section 29: (a) Rabobank will consider all reasonable evidence including all reasonable explanations for an unauthorised use having occurred; (b) the fact that an account is accessed with the correct PIN, while significant, is not of itself conclusive evidence that you have contributed to the loss; (c) the use or security of any information required to perform a transaction that you are not required to keep secret (for example, your Visa Credit Card Number and Expiry Date) is not relevant to your liability; and (d) the portion of losses incurred that you and the Financial Institution had not agreed could be accessed using the Visa Credit Card and/or PIN that was used to perform the unauthorised transaction shall be excluded from the calculation of your liability The guidelines set out at the beginning of these Conditions of Use to safeguard your Card Account, are the minimum security measures you should take. If you disagree with Rabobank s resolution process, you should contact Rabobank and request that Rabobank review its decision in accordance with section Visa zero liability 30.1 In addition to the limits placed on your liability described in section 29 above, Visa s scheme rules provide that Rabobank shall limit your liability to nil in the following circumstances: (1) the unauthorised Transactions were not effected at an ATM; including Transactions effected prior to notification of: (i) the unauthorised Transactions; or (ii) the lost or stolen Visa Credit Card, by you to Rabobank. (1) you have not contributed to any loss caused by unauthorised use of your Visa Credit Card as described in section 29.3; and (2) you have provided all reasonably requested documentation to Rabobank, which may include provision of a statutory declaration and police report Where this Visa zero liability section applies, Rabobank will endeavour to refund the amount of the unauthorised Transactions within 24 hours, subject to: (1) you having provided all reasonably requested information to Rabobank; (3) you are not otherwise in default or have breached these Conditions of Use; (4) your Card Account is not in arrears, other than as a result of the unauthorised Transactions; and (5) Rabobank has not reasonably determined that further investigation is necessary before refunding the amount of the unauthorised Transactions based on: (iii) the conduct of the Card Account; (iv) the nature and circumstances surrounding the unauthorised Transactions; and (v) any delay in notifying Rabobank of the unauthorised Transactions Any refund is conditional upon the final outcome of Rabobank investigation of the matter and may be withdrawn by Rabobank where it considers that this section shall not apply as a result of that investigation. In making any determination in respect of this section, Rabobank will comply with the requirements of section 31 of the Conditions of Use. 31. Resolving errors on account statements 31.1 If you believe a Transaction is wrong or unauthorised or your account statement contains any instances of unauthorised use or errors, you must immediately notify Rabobank by calling Client Services on As soon as possible, you must also provide Rabobank the following: Rabobank Visa Platinum Credit Card Conditions of Use 15

16 your name and address, account number and Visa Credit Card Number; details of the Transaction or the error you consider is wrong or unauthorised; a copy of the Monthly Credit Card Statement in which the unauthorised Transaction or error first appeared; the dollar amount and an explanation as to why you believe it is an unauthorised Transaction or an error; details other users authorised to operate the account; and details of whether your Visa Credit Card is signed and your PIN secure If Rabobank is unable to settle your complaint immediately to your satisfaction, it will advise you in writing of the procedures for further investigation and resolution and may request further relevant details from you If Rabobank finds that an error was made, it will make the appropriate adjustments to your Card Account including interest and charges (if any) and will advise you in writing of the amount of the adjustment When Rabobank advises you of the outcome of its investigations, it will; give you reasons in writing for its decisions by reference to these Conditions of Use and the epayments Code; advise you of any adjustments it has made to your Card Account; and advise you in writing of other avenues of dispute resolution (including Rabobank external dispute resolution Scheme), if you are not satisfied with Rabobank s decision If Rabobank decides that you are liable for all or any part of a loss arising out of unauthorised use of your Visa Credit Card, it will: give you copies of any documents or other evidence it relied upon; and advise you whether or not there was any system or equipment malfunction at the time of the Transaction If Rabobank fails to carry out these procedures or causes unreasonable delay, Rabobank may be liable for part or the entire amount of the disputed Transaction where its failure or delay has prejudiced the outcome of the investigation Rabobank has the ability to investigate Disputed Transactions which occur on your Visa Credit Card. The Visa scheme has a dispute resolution process that is contained in Visa s operating rules. The process sets out specific circumstances and timeframes in which a member of the scheme (for example, Rabobank, a bank or financial institution) can claim a refund in connection with a Disputed Transaction on a cardholder s behalf. This right is referred to as a chargeback right. Accordingly, Rabobank ability to investigate a Disputed Transaction on your behalf is limited to the time frames imposed pursuant to the Visa scheme rules. The timeframes vary between 75 days and 120 days so it is important that you notify us as soon as you become aware of a Disputed Transaction. 32. Malfunction 32.1 Other than to correct the error in your Card Account and the refund of any charges or fees imposed on you as a result of the error, Rabobank will not be liable to you for any loss caused by an Electronic Banking Terminal malfunctioning if you were aware, or should have been aware, that the terminal was unavailable for use or was malfunctioning Where an Eftpos device is not working, the merchant may provide alternative manual processing of the Transaction.
