Risk Factors. Not Applicable. Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments. Not Applicable. Item 2. Properties. The primary asset of Citibank Credit Card Issuance Trust, a Delaware statutory trust formed on September 12, 2000 (the "issuance trust") -- and its primary source of funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the notes - is a collateral certificate issued by Citibank Credit Card Master Trust I (the "master trust") to the issuance trust. The collateral certificate represents an undivided interest in the assets of the master trust. The master trust's assets consist primarily of credit card receivables arising in a portfolio of revolving credit card accounts. Pursuant to Section 907 of the indenture under which the issuance trust's notes are issued, each month the issuance trust prepares a report (the "issuance trust's report") containing information regarding the issuance trust's notes, the master trust's assets and the collateral certificate for the related due period and the related payment dates for the notes. KPMG LLP has performed certain procedures in connection with the issuance trust's reports for the months of January 2005 through December 2005. The report issued by KPMG LLP in connection with these issuance trust's reports is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. The issuance trust's reports for the due periods ending in January 2005 through December 2005 are incorporated by reference from the registrant's Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on February 15, 2005, March 15, 2005, April 15, 2005, May 16, 2005, June 15, 2005, July 15, 2005, August 15, 2005, September 15, 2005, October 17, 2005, November 15, 2005, December 14, 2005, and January 17, 2006, respectively. In addition, the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the master trust with the Commission on January 26, 2006 containing financial information with regard to the master trust, the receivables and the accounts as of, and for the year ended in, December 2005 is incorporated by reference.

Legal Proceedings. Citibank (South Dakota), some of its affiliates as well as Visa U.S.A. Inc., Visa International Service Association, MasterCard International Incorporated and other banks are defendants in a consolidated class action lawsuit (IN RE CURRENCY CONVERSION FEE ANTITRUST LITIGATION) pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, which seeks unspecified damages and injunctive relief. The action, brought on behalf of certain United States holders of VISA, MasterCard and Diners Club branded general purpose credit cards who used those cards since March 1, 1997 for foreign currency transactions, asserts, among other things, claims for alleged violations of (i) Section 1 of the Sherman Act, (ii) the Federal Truth-in-Lending Act (TILA), and (iii) as to Citibank (South Dakota), the South Dakota Deceptive Trade Practices Act. On October 15, 2004, the District Court granted the plaintiffs' motion for class certification of their Sherman Act and TILA claims but denied the motion as to the South Dakota Deceptive Trade Practices Act claim against Citibank (South Dakota). On March 9, 2005, the District Court granted in part and denied in part defendants' motions for reconsideration of certain aspects of the October 15, 2004 rulings. Among other things, the District Court narrowed the antitrust classes to certain VISA-branded or MasterCard-branded cardholders of Citibank (South Dakota) and J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. On December 7, 2005, the District Court certified a Diners Club damages subclass, as well as Diners' antitrust and TILA injunctive relief subclasses. The Citigroup defendants, J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. and the plaintiffs have appealed certain aspects of the District Court's class action rulings. Except as described in the preceding paragraph, the registrant knows of no material pending legal proceedings involving the issuance trust, the master trust, Citibank (South Dakota), Citibank (Nevada), National Association or the trustee (in its capacity as such), other than routine litigation incidental to the business of the issuance trust, the master trust, Citibank (South Dakota), Citibank (Nevada), National Association or the trustee (in its capacity as such). Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders. None. PART II ------- Item 5.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters. Each subclass of the issuance trust's notes that is publicly offered in the U.S. is represented by one or more certificates registered in the name of Cede, the nominee of DTC, and an investor holding an interest in such subclasses of notes is not entitled to receive a note representing such interest except in limited circumstances set forth in the indenture.
