  On

  Corporation ("TRC"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Target, entered into a Note
  Purchase Agreement (the "Note Purchase Agreement") with Chase Bank USA National
  Association  ("Chase") and BOTAC, Inc.
  ("Note Purchaser"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Chase, to
  sell
  an undivided interest in Target's credit card receivables to Note Purchaser.   Upon
  the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement,
  TRC agreed to sell to Note Purchaser a $3,825,000,000 Floating Rate
  Asset-Backed Note (the "Note") to be issued by Target Credit Card Owner Trust
  2008-1 for a purchase price of $3,557,250,000.  The Note will be backed by credit card
  receivables held in the Target Credit Card Master Trust.
  At
  the closing of the transaction, TRC and Target National Bank will enter into a Series 2008-1
  Supplement ("Series 2008-1 Supplement") with Wells Fargo Bank, National
  Association, as trustee, creating a new series of certificates under the
  Amended and Restated Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of April 28,

  will be deposited by TRC in Target Credit Card Owner Trust 2008-1 and pledged
  to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as indenture trustee, to secure the
  Note pursuant to an Indenture (the "Indenture").  The material terms of the Note Purchase
  Agreement, Series 2008-1 Supplement and Indenture are described in Target's
  News Release relating to this matter, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit (99)
