12.3

Unauthorized Use or Disclosure of Confidential Information

General Effects.

(a)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, including Article 15 of this Agreement (and notwithstanding the issuance of a notice of termination or non-renewal of this Agreement by either party), all obligations of the parties under this Agreement including with respect to (i) operating the Program and servicing of the Accounts in good faith and in the ordinary course of their respective businesses, (ii) solicitations, marketing and advertising of the Program, (iii) acceptance of applications through Kohl’s Channels in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice,

and (iv) all economic obligations of the parties to each other with respect to the Program, including pursuant to Schedule 9.2, shall continue in accordance with the terms of this Agreement until the end of the Termination Period. The parties will cooperate in good faith to ensure the orderly wind-down or transfer of the Program, including with respect to the Bank, providing such transition support as reasonably requested by Kohl’s (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include interim servicing by or on behalf of Bank). Bank shall provide such transition support to Kohl’s at its then-current rates; provided however, that Bank shall waive any amounts due and owing by Kohl’s for such transition services if Kohl’s terminates this Agreement upon the occurrence of a Bank Event of Default or any other Event of Default where Bank is the defaulting party, unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the resolution of all appeals.

(b)

Upon the expiration of the Termination Period, all obligations of the parties under this Agreement shall cease, except that the provisions specified in Section 18.25 shall survive.

16.2

Kohl’s Option to Purchase the Program Assets.

(a)

If this Agreement expires or is terminated by either party for whatever reason, Kohl’s has the option to purchase from, or arrange the purchase by one or more third parties nominated by Kohl’s (including Kohl’s, each, a “Nominated Purchaser”) from Bank the Program Assets (including all relevant Account Documentation, Account information and history and other data reasonably necessary to enable continuing operation and management of the Accounts) at the applicable purchase price set forth in Section 16.2(d) [*].

(b)

The Purchase Option is exercisable by Kohl’s or a Nominated Purchaser serving written notice (the “Purchase Notice”) on Bank (i) if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 15.2 or 15.3, no later than [*] after receipt by Kohl’s or the prospective Nominated Purchaser(s), as applicable, of the last of the information initially required to be provided (i.e., without regard to quarterly updates) pursuant to Section 16.2(e), or (ii) if this Agreement expires in accordance with Section 15.1, no later than [*] prior to the expiration date. [*]

(c)

Subject to Section 16.2(f), if such Purchase Option is exercised, Kohl’s or a Nominated Purchaser must complete the purchase of the Program Assets within [*] after delivery of the Purchase Notice (or, solely in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 15.1, the later of the expiration of the Term and [*] after delivery of the Purchase Notice); [*]. The date of such completion of the purchase of the Program Assets shall be the “Program Purchase Date.” In the event the Accounts have been securitized, Bank shall remove Program Assets from securitizations as quickly as commercially feasible, but in no event later than the Program Purchase Date. Bank and Kohl’s will use commercially reasonable efforts to complete (or Kohl’s will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Nominated Purchaser to complete, as applicable) the purchase and sale agreement for the Program Assets no later than [*] following delivery of the Purchase Notice. The timeframe for the conversion of the Accounts to the Nominated Purchaser’s systems (including for delivery of test files) will be industry-standard for a portfolio of size and nature comparable to the Program.

4873-5713-2568v.1 0117281-000001

(d)

The purchase price for the Program Assets shall be as follows:

(i)

[*]

[*]

(e)

The parties will use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize transaction costs. Following the provision by either Kohl’s or Bank of notice of termination or non-renewal of this Agreement, or at any time during the twenty-four (24) month period preceding the expiration of the Term, promptly upon Kohl’s written request (but in no event later than [*] after such request; and provided that in the event of the provision by either Kohl’s or Bank of notice of termination pursuant to Section 15.2 or 15.3, as applicable, such request must be delivered no later than [*] after such notice, and failure to deliver such request by such date shall be deemed to be a notice by Kohl’s to Bank that it will not exercise its Purchase Option), [*]. Bank shall reasonably cooperate with each such Nominated Purchaser in its effort to determine whether it wishes to purchase the Program Assets, including by making Bank’s Program Manager and other knowledgeable Bank personnel reasonably available for interviews or Program-appropriate due diligence sessions reasonably promptly following a request by Kohl’s at times and for periods that do not unreasonably disrupt Bank’s day-to-day business operations and that follow Bank’s reasonable security requirements. Once Bank and a Nominated Purchaser have entered into a purchase agreement [*], Bank shall provide a full master file to such Nominated Purchaser with respect to the applicable Program Assets.

(f)

[*]

(g)

[*]

(h)

If Kohl’s exercises its Purchase Option, [*] prior to the date that is reasonably expected to be the last day of the Termination Period, it may communicate to Cardholders about the end of the Program and any new replacement credit card program that may be offered by a Nominated Purchaser following the Termination Period, provided that any such communication shall be subject to Bank review and approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Such communication from Kohl’s may be provided in conjunction with the Nominated Purchaser.

(i)

If Kohl’s exercises its Purchase Option, at Kohl’s request, Bank and Kohl’s shall work together to assign or transfer to Kohl’s or a Nominated Purchaser all rights of Bank (x) in each BIN applicable to the Co-Branded Credit Cards; and (y) the account numbers relating to the Co-Branded Credit Cards. [*]

(j)

Without limiting Kohl’s rights pursuant to this Section 16.2, unless this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 15.2 or 15.3, if Bank elects, no later than [*]; provided, however that such obligation will not be deemed a condition to Kohl’s exercising any of its rights or Bank performing any of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

4873-5713-2568v.1 0117281-000001

16.3

Rights of Bank if Purchase Option not Exercised.

(a)

If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article 15 and Kohl’s gives written notice that it will not exercise its option referred to in Section 16.2, the time period for the Purchase Option expires pursuant to Section 16.2(b) or Kohl’s notifies Bank pursuant to Section 18.14 that it has withdrawn its Purchase Notice, Kohl’s shall have no further rights whatsoever in the Program Assets after the expiration of the Termination Period; provided, however, Kohl’s shall continue to accept Accounts as a form of payment for Kohl’s Goods and/or Services for a period of [*] after the expiration of the Termination Period. In such instance, Bank has the right at its sole discretion within [*] after the expiration of the Termination Period to:

(i)

issue to Cardholders that Bank considers creditworthy a replacement or substitute credit card (which card must not bear any Kohl’s Licensed Xxxx) with such characteristics as the Bank considers appropriate (the cost and expense of card re-design and re-issue being borne by Bank); provided that Bank shall not issue a replacement or substitute card in cooperation with or branded with the marks associated with any [*].

17.3

Procedures.

(a)

In case any claim is made, or any suit or action is commenced, against either party (the “Indemnified Party”) in respect of which indemnification may be sought by it under this Article 17, the Indemnified Party shall promptly give the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) notice thereof and the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, with prior written notice to the Indemnified Party given not later than twenty (20) days after the delivery of the applicable notice, to assume, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party. After notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable to such Indemnified Party under this Section for any attorneys’ fees or other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.

(b)

The Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ its own counsel if the Indemnifying Party elects to assume such defense, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the Indemnified Party’s expense, unless (i) the employment of such counsel has been authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party, (ii) the Indemnifying Party has not employed counsel to take charge of the defense within twenty (20) days after delivery of the applicable notice or, having elected to assume such defense, thereafter ceases its defense of such action, or (iii) the Indemnified Party has reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party (in which case the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the Indemnified Party), in any of which event attorneys’ fees and expenses shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party.

(c)

The Indemnifying Party shall promptly notify the Indemnified Party if the Indemnifying Party desires not to assume, or participate in the defense of, any such claim, suit or action.

(d)

The Indemnified Party or Indemnifying Party may at any time notify the other of its intention to settle or compromise any claim, suit or action against the Indemnified Party in respect of which payments may be sought by the Indemnified Party hereunder, and (i) the Indemnifying Party may settle or compromise any such claim, suit or action solely for the payment of money damages, but shall not agree to any other settlement or compromise without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (it being agreed that any failure of an Indemnified Party to consent to any settlement or compromise involving relief other than monetary damages shall not be deemed to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and (ii) the Indemnified Party may settle or compromise any such claim, suit or action solely for an amount not exceeding One Thousand Dollars

4873-5713-2568v.1 0117281-000001

17.4

Notice and Additional Rights and Limitations.

(a)

If an Indemnified Party fails to give prompt notice of any claim being made or any suit or action being commenced in respect of which indemnification under this Article 17 may be sought, such failure shall not limit the liability of the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that this provision shall not be deemed to limit the Indemnifying Party’s rights to recover for any loss, cost or expense which it can establish resulted from such failure to give prompt notice.

(b)

This Article 17 shall govern the obligations of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof but shall not be deemed to limit the rights which any party might otherwise have at law or in equity.

ARTICLE 18

MISCELLANEOUS

18.1

Limitation of Liability.

[*]

18.2

Precautionary Security Interest.

(a)

Kohl’s and Bank agree that this Agreement contemplates the extension of credit by Bank to Cardholders. However, as a precaution in the unlikely event that any person asserts that Article 9 of the UCC applies or may apply to the transactions contemplated hereby, and to secure Kohl’s payment of and performance of all obligations of Kohl’s to Bank, Kohl’s hereby grants to Bank a first priority present and continuing security interest in and to the following, whether now existing or hereafter created or acquired, together with the proceeds thereof: all Accounts, all indebtedness charged to Accounts, and all Charge Transaction Data. In addition, Kohl’s agrees to take any reasonable action requested by Bank, at Bank’s expense, to establish the first lien and perfected status of such security interest, and appoints Bank as Kohl’s attorney-in-fact to take any such action on Kohl’s behalf; provided that Bank shall be responsible for preparing any such documentation.

(b)

In furtherance of Section 18.2(a):

(i)

[*]

(ii)

(iii)

18.3

Securitization; Participation.

Bank shall have the right to securitize, pledge or participate the Cardholder Indebtedness or any part thereof by itself or as part of a larger offering at any time, in such a manner that allows Bank to

4873-5713-2568v.1 0117281-000001

obtain cash flows representing all or most of the economic benefits of owning such Cardholder Indebtedness. Such securitization, pledge or participation shall not affect Kohl’s rights or Bank’s obligations hereunder. Bank shall not securitize, pledge or participate the Cardholder Indebtedness in any manner that may encumber any of Kohl’s rights hereunder to purchase the Program Assets. All uses of the Kohl’s Licensed Marks in any securitization document shall be made in accordance with Section 10.1 and with the prior written approval of Kohl’s.

18.4

Assignment.

Except as provided in this Section 18.4, neither party shall assign this Agreement or any of its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party; provided, however, that (a) either party may, without the consent of the other party, (i) assign this Agreement in whole or in part to an Affiliate of such party provided that such Affiliate remains an Affiliate of such party and such assignment shall not relieve such party of its obligations under this Agreement or (ii) following at least ten (10) days’ written notice to the other party (unless such advance notice is prohibited by statute or regulation, in which event such assigning party shall provide notice as promptly as practicable), assign this Agreement to the acquiring party in, or company resulting from, a Change of Control of such assigning party provided that such acquiring or resulting party is reasonably capable of performing such assigning party’s obligations under this Agreement and (b) following at least ten (10) days’ written notice to Bank, Kohl’s may, without the consent of Bank, assign Kohl’s rights to receive funds under this Agreement (but not its obligations) in connection with a financing arrangement.

18.5

Sale or Transfer of Accounts.

Except as provided in Sections 4.6(g), Error! Reference source not found., 16.2 and 18.3, Bank shall not sell or transfer in whole or in part the Accounts.

18.6

Subcontracting.

(a)

It is understood and agreed that, in fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement, either party may utilize its Affiliates or other Persons to perform functions. The party shall be responsible for functions performed by such Affiliates or other Persons to the same extent the party would be responsible if it performed such functions itself.

(b)

If a party proposed to use a third party (e.g., subcontractor or outsourced service provider), other than an Affiliate of Kohl’s or Bank, as the case may be, to perform any of the obligations to be performed by Bank or Kohl’s under this Agreement, such party shall give the other party’s Manager at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice, which notice shall specify the scope of the proposed services (including the specific services) to be performed by such third party, the identity or qualifications of such third party, the proposed site from which such services would be provided, and a written description of the scope and materials terms of the proposed agreement to be entered into by such party and such third party. Such party shall perform reasonable due diligence in accordance with such party’s then-current due diligence policies and procedures. Upon the request of the other party, such party shall provide a copy of such due diligence assessment to the other party.

(c)

Each party agrees to make commercially reasonable efforts to provide the other party, upon such party’s written reasonable request, with reasonable information regarding the performance by third parties (e.g., subcontractor or outsourced service provider), including, an Affiliate of such party, used by such party to perform any of the obligations

4873-5713-2568v.1 0117281-000001

to be performed by such party under this Agreement, [*]. In the case of significant concerns by a party arising with respect to such Person’s performance of the other party’s obligations under this Agreement that are based on the information provided to such party pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the other party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate joint dialogue among such Person and the parties that are designed to alleviate such concerns.

(d)

Except to the extent not permitted by the subcontractor, the parties agree that if and to the extent that Kohl’s and Bank jointly engage a subcontractor or both Kohl’s and Bank engage the same subcontractor for the same function and in the same manner that Bank engages such subcontractor to support the Program, the subcontractor will be deemed solely for audit purposes to be a subcontractor of Bank and not Kohl’s.

(e)

In connection with third-party subcontractors that Kohl’s uses to fulfill its obligations under the Agreement:

(i)

[*]

(ii)

[*]

(iii)

[*]

(iv)

18.7

Amendment.

Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, this Agreement may not be amended except by a written instrument executed and delivered by Bank and Kohl’s. For the avoidance of doubt, an email shall not constitute a written instrument for purposes of this Section 18.7.

18.8

Non-Waiver.

No delay by a party hereto in exercising any of its rights hereunder, or partial or single exercise of such rights, shall operate as a waiver of that or any other right. The exercise of one or more of a party’s rights hereunder shall not be a waiver of any rights or remedies available to such party under this Agreement or in law or at equity.

18.9

Severability.

If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, void or unenforceable, all other provisions shall remain valid and be enforced and construed as if such invalid provision were never a part of this Agreement.

4873-5713-2568v.1 0117281-000001

18.10

Waiver of Jury Trial and Venue.

The parties hereto waive all right to trial by jury in any action or proceeding to enforce or defend any rights under this Agreement.

Governing Law.

This Agreement and all rights and obligations hereunder, including matters of construction, validity and performance, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to internal principles of conflict of laws, and applicable federal law.

18.12

Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, neither party shall be required to disclose information to the other party or any third party under this Agreement, unless the transmittal of such information (a) would not cause such party to be deemed a credit reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. §1681 and (b) would not be restricted by such party’s agreement with the credit bureau providing such information.

18.16

18.18

No Set-Off.

Kohl’s and Bank agree that each party has waived any right to set-off, combine, consolidate or otherwise appropriate and apply (i) any assets of the other party held by the party or (ii) any indebtedness or other liabilities at any time owing by the party to the other party, as the case may be, against or on account of any obligations owed by the other party under this Agreement, except as expressly set forth herein.

18.19

Conflict of Interest.

Each party hereto, in performing it obligations hereunder, shall maintain appropriate business standards, procedures and controls.
