Item 5. Other Events
In the May reporting period, certain charge-off policies for the
Trust were changed in order to conform these policies to new
guidelines adopted by the Federal Financial Institution Examination
Council. The changes relate to the timing of recognition of losses on
accounts of which the cardholder has filed for bankruptcy or died. The
implementation of these changes has caused a one-time acceleration of
certain charge-offs. Accounts of bankrupt cardholders were previously
charged off 90 days after First USA Bank, National Association, the
Servicer of the Trust, was notified of bankruptcy. These accounts will
now be charged off 60 days after notification. Accounts of deceased
customers were previously charged off after 180 days but under the new
policy will be charged off after 60 days.
These policy changes will cause a one-time increase in gross
credit losses for the May Trust results. Reported Trust gross credit
losses for May were 7.32% after the one time increase in charge-offs
due to bankruptcy or death of 2.76%. Without the impact of the policy
change, gross credit losses would have been 4.56%. The impact on one
month excess spread and three month average excess spread was
approximately 2.76% and 0.92%, respectively.
