Section 8 - Other Events
Item 8.01 Other Events.
Chase Bank USA, National Association (f/k/a Chase Manhattan Bank USA, National
Association) is the registrant of the Chase Credit Card Owner Trust, Series
2002-5 ("Series 2002-5"), which issued multiple classes of Asset Backed Notes.
On or about April 15, 2005, JPMorgan Chase Bank, as Paying Agent, made the
distributions to holders of its Notes of Series 2002-5 contemplated by the
related indenture.
A copy of the Monthly Noteholders Statement with respect to such distribution,
delivered pursuant to Section 7.3 of the related indenture, is being filed as an
exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC") has recently provided new
interpretive guidance to Chase USA and other OCC regulated banks that will
result in an increase in the minimum payments due on a portion of the accounts
in Chase USA's servicing portfolio when fully implemented by Chase USA. The OCC
guidance is intended to be responsive to concerns raised by the Federal
Financial Institutions Examination Council that minimum payment requirements
currently used by credit card lenders increase credit risk and mask portfolio
quality and that credit card lenders ought to require minimum payments that
amortize outstanding account balances over a reasonable period of time.
Chase USA expects to implement the increased minimum payment requirement in
stages commencing in the third quarter of 2005 with full implementation expected
by the end of the first quarter of 2006. Chase USA expects that such change in
the minimum payment requirement is likely to result in an increase in
delinquencies and charge-offs in the accounts in each of the First USA Master
Trust, the Chase Master Trust and the master owner trust, although Chase USA
cannot predict with any degree of certainty the effect of any such increase.
