The Bank shall have not less than thirty (30) days from its receipt of such offer to consider the offer and give notice to the Company that the Bank wishes to negotiate a definitive agreement therefor (“Opt-in Notice”). If the Bank delivers an Opt-in Notice to the Company, then the Parties will negotiate in good faith for a period of up to sixty (60) days, and either amend this Agreement to incorporate the New ▇▇▇▇-branded Credit Cards or document and execute a new definitive agreement for such Credit Cards. If the Bank does not timely deliver an Opt-in Notice, or notifies the Company of its intention not to do so, or if the negotiations do not result in such an amendment or new definitive agreement, then the Company or any of its Affiliates may request proposals from Credit Card issuers other than the Bank or its Affiliates to offer or issue in the United States a Credit Card bearing the New ▇▇▇▇, but the Company may enter into an agreement for the offer or issuance of such a Credit Card only on terms that are, in the aggregate with respect to economics, servicing and risk management no more favorable aggregate set of terms to such other issuer than the most favorable terms offered by the Bank to the Company.
