</TABLE>
In July, 2000, the Servicer discovered that a data processing error,
associated with a change in cardholder terms, caused a small
percentage of Collections of Finance Charge Receivables processed
during May 2000, June 2000 and July 2000 to be classified as
Collections of Principal Receivables. The reclassification of
Collections did not have an adverse effect on the interests of the
Certificateholders, but did cause various items reported in this
statement and the statements for the affected months to be misstated.
The Servicer is working diligently with its outside data processing
company to address the classification problem and expects to resolve
all data processing issues within 30-60 days. The Servicer does not
expect to restate affected months.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, THE undersigned has duly executed
and delivered this Certificate this 15th day of AUGUST, 2000.
