(ii) to holders of unexpired Virgin America branded credit cards only, in connection with their use of such credit card, related credit card products typically offered by a credit card issuer to its credit card holders, including debt cancellation products and credit insurance, in each case which do not bear the “Virgin America” and/or “Virgin America Airways” names and/or the Marks (collectively, the “Affinity Products”),

to enhance and further broaden its Elevate loyalty and frequent flyer program; and

D. VEL, VMIHL and VMIGL are willing to licenses sub-license and/or authorize VAM’s use of the Marks and names “Virgin America” and/or “Virgin America Airways” in connection with the Affinity Products subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein; and

E. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the VAM Licence.

While VAM otherwise reserves all other rights under its VAM Licence, VAM agrees that the Affinity Products shall be marketed to existing and potential members of VAM’s Elevate program only in the USA; provided that no Affinity Products shall be issued or provided to any person that is not already a member of VAM’s Elevate program or does not become a member of the VAM Elevate program;

2. VEL, VMIHL and VMIGL agree that VAM may sub-licence its rights under this letter agreement to Barclays or any other co-branding and/or other affinity partner provided that:
