The expected payment date of all of the notes is April 2018.

JP Morgan Securities is the lead underwriter.

The notes are backed by a pool of private-label and co-branded revolving credit card receivables generated by accounts owned by Synchrony Bank. According to S&P, the composition of retailers in this trust is more concentrated than other multi-retailer private-label trusts, as the top four merchants account for approximately 87.7% of the receivables and 81.6% of the number of accounts in the pool.

Synchrony was last in the market in March when it priced $750 million of five-year notes. The senior class A notes, rated triple-A by Fitch Ratings and S&P, yields 2.386%, or swaps plus 58 basis points.
