          (g) The Receiving Party acknowledges the competitive value and confidential nature of the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information and that disclosure thereof to any third party could be harmful to the Disclosing Party, competitively and otherwise.

If such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, then the Receiving Party shall furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information that, in the written opinion of its counsel, is legally required, and the Receiving Party shall exercise its reasonable best efforts to obtain reasonable assurance that confidential treatment shall be accorded to the Confidential Information.

          (h) The Receiving Party acknowledges and agrees that, given the nature of the Confidential Information and the damage that may result to the Disclosing Party if information contained therein is disclosed to any third party in breach of the obligations set forth in the Agreement, money damages might not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of the Agreement by the Receiving Party, and that, in addition to all other remedies, the Disclosing Party shall be entitled to seek specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as deemed proper or necessary by a court of competent jurisdiction as a remedy for any such breach.

4

Agreement pursuant to Rule 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), at or about the time of such filing, provided that no such filing shall be deemed to violate this Section 2.2.

     ****

6. Taxes

     6.1. Responsibility for Paying Taxes; Generally

  6

          (a) (i) The Parties acknowledge that MasterCard may purchase goods or services from third parties in connection with the provision of Services to JMPC. MasterCard shall be responsible for any sales, service, value-added, use, excise, consumption, and any other taxes or duties on such purchases, including taxes imposed on MasterCard's acquisition or use of such goods or services.

               (ii) Unless JPMC provides MasterCard with a valid and applicable exemption certificate or as otherwise provided in this Section, JPMC will be responsible for sales, use, excise, services, consumption and other taxes or duties (excluding value added tax) that are assessed on the provision of the Services and for which MasterCard invoices JPMC before the expiration of the applicable JPMC statutory period for assessment of deficiencies.

               (iii) Except when separately identified by Schedule or as otherwise provided in this Section, JPMC will be responsible for value-added taxes that are assessed on the provision of the Services (including the reimbursement of expenses), any particular goods provided to JPMC by MasterCard, its Affiliates or **** the charges for such goods or Services. If a value added tax is later assessed against MasterCard due to a change in law or otherwise, on the provision of the Services, however levied or assessed, except for assessments levied against MasterCard for administrative errors by MasterCard (e.g. incorrect calculation of the quantum of VAT due), to the extent MasterCard may not recover or obtain a credit for such tax, both parties will negotiate in good faith and agree on a commercial resolution to this issue to their mutual satisfaction.

               (iv) When Services are specifically identified in the Schedule as being subject to value-added taxes, MasterCard will be responsible for levying such taxes on the provision of the Services and JPMC will be responsible for paying those taxes in addition to the consideration payable.

               (v) Any taxes assessed, as determined by JPMC, on the provision of the Services resulting from MasterCard relocating or rerouting the delivery of Services for MasterCard's convenience to, from or through a location other than the location approved by JPMC as of the Effective Date of the applicable Schedule, shall be paid by JPMC and JPMC shall receive a credit with respect to the fees invoiced thereunder equal to the payments made pursuant to this Subsection 6.1(a)(v).

          (b) Each of JPMC and MasterCard **** shall bear sole responsibility for all taxes, assessments and other real property related levies on its owned or leased real property, personal property (including software), franchise and privilege taxes on its business, and taxes based on its net income or gross receipts. MasterCard's employees shall not be considered employees of JPMC by reason of their provision of Services under this contract and MasterCard shall bear sole responsibility for all payroll and employment taxes relating to its employees.

     6.2. Segregation of Fees JPMC and MasterCard shall reasonably cooperate to segregate the fees payable hereunder into the following separate payment streams: (a) those for taxable Services; (b) those for nontaxable Services; (c) those for exempt Services, (d) those for which a sales, use or other similar tax has already been paid; and (e) those for which MasterCard functions merely as a paying agent for JPMC in receiving goods, supplies or services (including

  7

leasing and licensing arrangements) that otherwise are nontaxable or have previously been subject to tax. Where required by law to support the taxable and nontaxable classification, MasterCard shall list separately, but not necessarily identify taxability, on its invoices the portion of fees which are subject to any sales, use, excise, value-added, services, consumption or other taxes due during the term of an applicable Schedule in connection with the provision of the Services, and the total amount of any taxes MasterCard is collecting from JPMC.

     6.3. Cooperation JPMC and MasterCard shall reasonably cooperate to more accurately determine each party's tax liability and to minimize such liability to the extent legally permissible. Where required JPMC and MasterCard shall provide and make available to the other party any resale certificates, information regarding out-of-state sales or use of equipment, materials or services, and other certificates or information reasonably requested by such other Party. Some Services delivered to certain JPMC locations are exempt from sales and use taxes. JPMC will provide MasterCard with the documentation applicable to tax exempt transactions. ****

     6.4. Assessment for Tax Deficiency. If either Party is assessed a deficiency for taxes payable by the other Party pursuant to the Agreement, the assessed Party will promptly notify the other Party of such assessment and will administratively contest such assessment to the extent it is timely requested or authorized to do so by the other Party. The other Party will be given a reasonable opportunity to participate in any such administrative contest and to review prior to submission the terms of any communication the assessed Party undertakes as part of such administrative contest. The assessed Party will not agree the amount of any such assessment without the approval of the other Party, such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld. The other Party shall indemnify and hold harmless the assessed Party from any such tax deficiency. Penalties and interest, if any, associated with such deficiency shall be the responsibility of the assessed Party where such deficiency resulted from a failure of the assessed Party to properly invoice the other Party. The other Party shall reimburse the assessed Party for all accounting and attorneys' fees and expenses reasonably incurred in contesting such assessment at the request or upon the authorization of the other Party; provided, however, that the assessed Party shall not be required to contest any such assessment unless requested or authorized to do so by the other Party, and payment by the assessed Party of an assessed deficiency which it was not timely requested or authorized by the other Party to contest, said assessment having been promptly advised to the other Party, will be deemed a payment which the assessed Party was required to pay to the appropriate government entity.

7. Audits

     ****

     7.4. Record Retention. Both Parties shall retain and produce records and supporting documentation sufficient to document the Services and the fees paid or payable by JPMC under this Services Agreement, during the Services Term and for seven (7) years following the expiration or termination of this Services Agreement, in accordance with all Applicable Laws and the Rules and otherwise consistent with JPMC's record retention policy, but in no event less than seven (7) years.

SCHEDULE ONE

     THIS SCHEDULE ONE (together with the Agreement and any Annex(s) hereto or incorporated into this document, this "Schedule One"), dated as of February 8, 2005, is entered into between JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, with headquarters in Columbus, Ohio, and MasterCard International Incorporated ("MasterCard"), a Delaware corporation, with offices located at 2000 Purchase Street, Purchase, New York 10577-2509.

     WHEREAS, JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association and its Affiliates with card businesses in the U.S ("JPMC") and MasterCard (each a "Party" and together, the "Parties") desire to enter into a relationship pursuant to which MasterCard shall provide certain discounted fees and incentives to JPMC, and JPMC shall make certain commitments to MasterCard, in each case in the United States as described in this Schedule One.

     NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the commitments set forth below, JPMC and MasterCard agree as follows:

Table 5a

Baseline Pricing Structure

Table 5b

Incremental Pricing Structure

In the event that JPMC's annualized **** for a quarter is less than **** , the Parties agree that JPMC shall be charged MasterCard Standard Pricing on all **** for such quarter.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, JPMC shall pay MasterCard Standard Pricing on **** in accordance with the Rules; the applicable alternative rates described above will be reflected in a

2

quarterly rebate (the "Quarterly Rebate") computed by MasterCard using information provided by JPMC in Quarterly Member Reports or such other reports as are required by the Rules ("QMR Reports"). MasterCard will pay the Quarterly Rebate to JPMC within forty-five (45) days of MasterCard receiving all QMR Reports required from JPMC for a quarter. MasterCard will pay any Quarterly Rebate to JPMC in such manner as the Parties may agree from time to time. MasterCard acknowledges that, as a result of the calculation of **** in the Tables, **** .

In addition, within forty-five (45) days of MasterCard receiving all QMR Reports required from JPMC for a Program Year, MasterCard will calculate the fees due from JPMC (or, as the case may be, the rebate due to JPMC) for such Program Year using the applicable alternative rates described in the preceding Tables, based on the actual **** achieved by JPMC in such Program Year (the "Actual Annual Incentive"). MasterCard will then reconcile the Actual Annual Incentive (as adjusted pursuant to the preceding sentence) against Quarterly Rebates paid in the Program Year in accordance with the following provisions. If the Actual Annual Incentive due to JPMC exceeds the sum of the Quarterly Rebates paid by MasterCard in such Program Year, then MasterCard will promptly pay the difference to JPMC in such manner as the Parties may agree. If the Actual Annual Incentive due to JPMC is less than the sum of the Quarterly Rebates paid by MasterCard in such Program Year, the MasterCard, may, in its discretion, require JPMC to promptly refund the balance to MasterCard in such manner as the Parties may agree, or offset such balance against any future incentives owed JPMC pursuant to this Schedule One.

MasterCard makes a payment of Marketing Funds in respect of any Program Year in which JPMC is later determined not to qualify for such payment as a result of the preceding sentence, JPMC will promptly refund such payment to MasterCard within thirty (30) days of the date of such determination. MasterCard will provide a monthly report to JPMC detailing how the Marketing Funds are being used and the balance remaining for each Program Year during the Term of Schedule One.
