The Notes represent interests in the Trust only and do not represent interests in or obligations of the Transferor, ABC, Advanta Corp. or any affiliate thereof.
The Registrant has prepared this Form 10-K in reliance upon various no-action letters issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") to other trusts which are substantially similar to the Trust.
