                                Introductory Note
                                -----------------


This Annual Report on Form 10-K is filed in accordance with a letter, dated May
26, 1995 issued by the Office of Chief Counsel, Division of Corporation Finance
of the Securities and Exchange Commission stating that the Division will not
object if the Registrant files reports pursuant to Sections 13 and 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") in the manner
described in a letter dated May 24, 1995 to the Office of Chief Counsel on
behalf of the Registrant. Accordingly, certain items have been omitted from or
modified in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Effective July 1, 1998, First USA Bank, National Association (the "Bank"), a
wholly owned subsidiary of First USA Financial, Inc., which was a wholly owned
subsidiary of BANC ONE CORPORATION ("BANC ONE"), replaced BANK ONE, N.A. as the
Seller and the Servicer under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (the
"Agreement") dated as of November 1, 1994 between BANK ONE, N.A. as Seller and
Servicer, and Bankers Trust Company, as Trustee, pursuant to which Banc One
Credit Card Master Trust (the "Trust") was formed. Concurrently, all consumer
Visa and MasterCard credit card accounts previously held by other subsidiaries
of BANC ONE CORPORATION were consolidated in the Bank.

Effective October 2, 1998, BANK ONE CORPORATION ("BANK ONE"), the parent
corporation of the Bank, merged with and into First Chicago NBD Corporation, a
Delaware corporation ("FCNBD"). Immediately prior to such merger, BANC ONE also
merged with and into BANK ONE, which had been a subsidiary of BANC ONE prior to
such merger. BANK ONE is a bank holding company headquartered in Chicago,
Illinois and registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 as amended.

In connection with such merger, the Bank in its capacity as servicer of the
Trust, changed the independent accountants for the Trust from Coopers & Lybrand
L.L.P., now PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC"), to Arthur Andersen LLP ("AA"),
historically engaged by FCNBD. BANK ONE has selected AA as the certifying
accountant for the merged entity. Selection of AA as the certifying accountant
was recommended to the BANC ONE Audit Committee on July 20, 1998. The BANC ONE
Audit Committee approved the selection and so reported to the BANC ONE Board of
Directors on July 21, 1998. The sole reason for the change of the independent
accountants for the Trust was to align the independent accountants of the Trust
with those of BANK ONE.

In addition to the Certificates listed on page 1, the Banc One Credit Card
Master Trust has issued the following interests in the Trust:

o    Asset Backed Certificates, Series 1997-1, issued pursuant to the Agreement
     and the Series 1997-1 Supplement dated as of September 23, 1997.

o    Asset Backed Certificates, Series 1997-2, issued pursuant to the Agreement
     and the Series 1997-2 Supplement dated as of December 17, 1997.

The final payment with respect to Series 1994-C Asset Backed Certificates issued
by the Banc One Credit Card Master Trust was made on December 15, 1998 and
therefore information with respect to such Certificates is not included in this
report.

Item 1.        Business
               --------

               Omitted.

Item 2.        Properties
               ----------

               The property of Banc One Credit Card Master Trust (the "Trust")
               consists solely of credit card receivables. Information about
               such property is contained in the Annual Servicer's Certificate
               filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto. Information relating to the
               performance of the Trust for the year ended December 31, 1998 is
               contained in the Annual Statement prepared by the Servicer and
               filed as Exhibit 99.3 hereto.

Item 3.        Legal Proceedings
               -----------------

               The Bank has been named as a defendant in four class action
               lawsuits filed in late 1997 by cardmembers of the Bank. These
               actions were filed in the Superior Court of the State of
               Delaware, New Castle County, the Circuit Court of Multnomah
               County, Oregon, the United States District Court for the Western
               District of Washington and in the 14th District Court of Dallas
               County, Texas. The plaintiffs in all four cases contend that they
               and others similarly situated are entitled to equitable relief
               for alleged violations of the Delaware Consumer Fraud Act, breach
               of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair
               dealing and fraud. The court granted summary judgment in favor
               of the Bank in the Delaware case in April 1998 and the court in
               Oregon entered partial summary judgment in favor of the Bank
               in May 1998. These cases are in various stages of motion and
               discovery practice. The Bank believes that these claims are
               without merit and intends to vigorously defend against all
               claims. While it is impossible to predict the outcome of these
               matters, the Bank believes that any liability arising from these
               matters will not have a material adverse effect on the
               Transferor's business or on the Receivables of the Trust.

               The Bank has been named as a defendant in a class action lawsuit
               filed in the United States District Court for the District of
               Delaware against the Bank alleging that the Bank charged
               convenience check fees in a manner contrary to representations
               made in the Bank's solicitations. Although this matter is at a
               preliminary stage, the Bank believes that it is without merit and
               the Bank intends to vigorously defend against all claims. While
               it is impossible to predict the outcome of this matter, the Bank
               believes that any liability arising from this matter will not
               have a material effect on the Transferor's business or on the
               Receivables of the Trust.

               The Bank has been named as a defendant in a class action lawsuit
               filed in December 1998 in the United States District Court for
               the Northern District of Illinois alleging that the Bank, in one
               of its direct mail solicitations, violated Federal and state
               prohibitions against the mailing of unsolicited credit cards.
               Although this matter is at a preliminary stage, the Bank believes
               that it is without merit and the Bank intends to vigorously
               defend against all claims. While it is impossible to predict the
               outcome of this matter, the Bank believes that any liability
               arising from this matter will not have a material adverse effect
               on the Transferor's business or on the Receivables of the Trust.

Item 5.        Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder
               -------------------------------------------------------------
               Matters
               -------

               Investor Certificates are held and delivered in book-entry form
               through the facilities of the Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), a
               "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of
               Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
               The Investor Certificates are held by Cede & Co., the nominee of
               DTC.

               The records of DTC indicate that, at December 31, 1998, there
               were: (i) forty-one (41) DTC Participants holding a position in
               the 6.15% Class A Asset Backed Certificates, Series 1995-A; (ii)
               two (2) DTC Participants holding a position in the 6.30% Class B
               Asset Backed Certificates, Series 1995-A; (iii) twenty-nine (29)
               DTC Participants holding a position in the 6.30% Class A Asset
               Backed Certificates, Series 1995-B; (iv) one (1) DTC Participant
               holding a position in the 6.45% Class B Asset Backed
               Certificates, Series 1995-B; (v) twelve (12) DTC Participants
               holding a position in the Floating Rate Class A Asset Backed
               Certificates, Series 1996-A; and (vi) one (1) DTC Participant
               holding a position in the Floating Rate Class B Asset Backed
               Certificates, Series 1996-A. At December 31, 1998, the Bank,
               owned 100% of the Seller Certificate, which represents beneficial
               ownership of residual interest in the assets of the Trust. There
               is no established public market in which the Certificates are
               traded.

Item 6.        Selected Financial Data
               -----------------------

               Omitted.

Item 7.        Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
               ---------------------------------------------------------------
               Results of Operations
               ---------------------

               BANK ONE continues to execute project plans established by its
               predecessor companies to assure Year 2000 readiness. Project
               costs are estimated to reach $350 million over the life of the
               project. Year 2000 costs incurred through year-end 1998 were
               approximately $235 million.

               The inventory and assessment phase has been completed for all
               information and non-information technology. At December 31, 1998,
               87% of BANK ONE's affected information technology applications
               were tested and returned to production. BANK ONE expects that all
               information technology applications, systems and equipment will
               be Year 2000 compliant by mid-1999. Ongoing facilities and
               equipment improvements are expected to result in Year 2000
               readiness for non-information systems technology by mid-1999.

               Year 2000 readiness is highly dependent on external entities and
               is not limited to operating risk. BANK ONE is working extensively
               with external entities to ensure that their systems will be Year
               2000 compliant; however, BANK ONE bears risk and could be
               adversely affected if outside parties, such as customers,
               vendors, utilities and government agencies, do not appropriately
               address Year 2000 readiness issues. In

                                     Page 4
<PAGE>

               addition, BANK ONE may have increased credit risk related to
               customers whose ability to repay debt is impaired due to Year
               2000 readiness costs or risk or whose collateral becomes impaired
               due to lack of Year 2000 readiness.

               Detailed contingency plans exist for critical business system
               applications to mitigate potential problems or delays associated
               with systems replacements or vendor delivery dates. Critical
               business processes have been identified, and the most reasonable
               recovery strategies have been selected. Contingency plans have
               been documented and validated for effectiveness. BANK ONE will
               continue to review and validate the scope and content of its
               contingency plans throughout 1999.

                [Letterhead of Arthur Andersen LLP Appears Here]


                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

We have examined the accompanying management's assertion about First USA Bank,
N.A.'s (the "Servicer"), compliance with the covenants and conditions of
Sections 3.02, 3.04, 3.09, 4.02, 4.03, 4.04, 4.05 and 8.08 of the Banc One
Credit Card Master Trust Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of November 1,
1994 (the "Agreement") and the Supplements thereto for Series 1994-B, Series
1994-C, Series 1995-A, Series 1995-B, Series 1996-A, Series 1997-1 and Series
1997-2 (the "Supplements"), as amended, between the Servicer and The Bankers
Trust Company (as Trustee for the various Certficateholders and Enhancement
Providers of Banc One Credit Card Master Trust) (together, the "Agreements"),
for the twelve months ended December 31, 1998. Management is responsible for the
Servicer's compliance with the Agreements. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on management's assertion about the Servicer's compliance based on our
examination.

Our examination was made in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and, accordingly, included
examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Servicer's compliance with those
requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in
the circumstances. We believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion. 

As discussed in management's assertion, management, in providing its assertion
on compliance, assumed the accuracy of the reports prepared by the Servicer's
third party credit card processor and did not extend its assessment to the
relevant aspects of the Servicer's compliance that are the responsibility of the
third party credit card processor. Accordingly, our examination did not extend
to these aspects of the Servicer's compliance that are the responsibility of the
third party credit card processor, and we do not express an opinion or any other
form of assurance on these compliance aspects.

In our opinion, management's assertion that the Servicer complied with the
covenants and conditions of the sections of the Agreements referred to above for
the twelve months ended December 31, 1998 is fairly stated, in all material
respects.

                        Assertion by First USA Bank, N.A.


The management of First USA Bank, N.A. (the "Servicer") is responsible for
complying with the covenants and conditions of Sections 3.02, 3.04, 3.09, 4.02,
4.03, 4.04, 4.05 and 8.08 of the Banc One Credit Card Master Trust Pooling and
Servicing Agreement dated as of November 1, 1994 (the "Agreement") and the
Supplements thereto for Series 1994-B, Series 1994-C, Series 1995-A, Series
1995-B, Series 1996-A, Series 1997-1 and Series 1997-2 (the "Supplements"), as
amended, between the Servicer and The Bankers Trust Company (as Trustee for the
various Certficateholders and Enhancement Providers of Banc One Credit Card
Master Trust) (together, the "Agreements").

Management has performed an evaluation of the Servicer's compliance with the
Agreements and based on this evaluation management believes that the Servicer
has complied with the covenants and conditions of the sections of the Agreements
referred to above for the twelve months ended December 31, 1998.


In providing this assertion on compliance, we have assumed the accuracy of the
reports prepared by the Servicer's third party credit card processor and did not
extend our assessment to the relevant aspects of the Servicer's compliance that
are the responsibility of the third party credit card processor. Accordingly,
our assessment does not extend to these aspects of the Servicer's compliance
that are the responsibility of the third party credit card processor, and we do
not express any form of assurance on these compliance aspects.
