If an effect causes Loan from Chiba to leave play during the Corp's turn, you can pay the 10 bits to avoid losing the game, since this does not require an action. |

Trivia
The outline of the metropolis of Chiba, a Japanese city across Tokyo Bay from Tokyo, is in the background of the card artwork. The central symbol is the classical Yin-Yang symbol of Chinese philosophy, representing the dichotomy of the universe into dark/light, male/female, odd/even. The characters in the halves of the symbol are the crossed-Y symbol for yen (the Japanese currency) and "eb", standing for eurobucks, the currency of Cyberpunk 2020. |
