Appendix A
Variances in Trust Reporting Compared with Cardholder Reporting
The Bank currently utilizes two payment prioritization methodologies when servicing credit card accounts -- the cardholder cycle payment methodology (utilized for customer calculations such as balance subject to finance charge, finance charges billed, and statement balance reporting functions) and the daily trust payment methodology (utilized for reporting on the assets in the BA Master Credit Card Trust II portfolio). The two methodologies agree on the total outstanding balance for each credit card account, but they vary with respect to the component principal receivable and finance charge receivable balances, primarily due to differences in the prioritization applied to payments and credit adjustments under each of the two methodologies. Cardholder payments have been, and continue to be, applied and recorded to cardholder accounts in accordance with cardholder agreements under the cardholder methodology.
Please refer to "Variances in Trust Reporting Compared with Cardholder Reporting" in the endnotes to Exhibit 99.1 in the registrant's distribution report on Form 10-D, filed with the SEC on September 15, 2014, for a description of the two payment prioritization methodologies utilized by the Bank, their differences, and the resulting variance as of the end of the August 2014 Monthly Period.
The Bank does not consider differences in the prioritization applied to payments and credit adjustments under each of the two methodologies, or the resulting variance in the component principal receivable and finance charge receivable balances, to constitute a failure to fulfill its obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Supplement and the Indenture in all material respects, so long as collections are applied correctly under each of the methodologies.
