Complaint

COMPLAINT

Capital One, National Association, by its attorneys Paul, Hastings, Janofsky & Walker

LLP, hereby files its Complaint, and states as follows:

INTRODUCTION

1. Plaintiff Capital One, National Association, ("Capital One" or "Bank")

brings this action to recover approximately $370,141.75 owed to it by Jacob Frydman

("Frydman"), under a credit account agreement and guaranty. Frydman borrowed money and

received other financial accommodations from Capital One, and Frydman promised to pay

certain amounts, including principal and interest, totaling $370,141.75, on the conditions set

; r

forth therein. In addition, in order to induce Capital One to extend or continue to extend credit or

other financial accommodations, Frydman executed a guaranty unconditionally guaranteeing his

obligations to the Bank. Frydman has defaulted on his obligations. Although Capital One

promptly provided Frydman with a Demand Letter notifying him of his default, Frydman has not

paid Capital One the outstanding balance owed. Therefore, Capital One brings this action for

breach of contract, among other claims, in order to recover the debt owed to it by Frydman .

Parties

2. Plaintiff Capital One is a national bank with its principal place of business

located at 1680 Capital One Drive, McLean, Virginia 22102. Capital One is a successor by

merger to North Fork Bank ("North Fork"), which merged with and into Capital One, N.A. on or

about August 1, 2007.

3. On information and belief, Defendant and Interpleader Defendant Jacob

Frydman ("Frydman") is a New York resident, residing at 40 Fulton Street, Floor 6, New York,

NY 10038.

Jurisdiction and Venue

4. This Court has jurisdiction over the subject matter of this action pursuant

to 28 U.S.C. §1332 because (i) complete diversity of citizenship exists between the parties; and

(ii) the amount in controversy exceeds $75,000.00 exclusive of interest and costs.

5. Venue in this District is proper under 28 U.S.C. § 1391 because Frydman

is subject to personal jurisdiction in this District and the events at issue occurred in this venue.

Thus venue is not inconvenient for the parties.
