The no-fee Hilton AmEx card offers a maximum Hilton Honors Gold status upon attaining $20K annual spend.

The $95-annual-fee Hilton AmEx Surpass card offers Diamond status with a higher annual spend of $40K.

The respective "complimentary" (no spend) status associated with these two personal cards are Silver and Gold, respectively.

It sounds as if the Hilton AmEx Surpass card is what whitewave currently has, perhaps upgraded at some point in the past from the no-fee version.
