AFFIDAVIT OF DEBT AND VERIFIED BILL OF PARTICULARS
The undersigned being first duly sworn according to law, deposes and says that she is familiar with
the policies and practices, as well as the books and records of the Plaintiff with respect to the matters
stated herein, and based on information and belief states as follows:
L Plaintiff's principal business consists of purchasing charged off receivables.
2. The Defendant defaulted on HOUSEHOLD BANK Account No. 5491100008119193. Said
Account was charged off on February 28, 2007 and subsequently sold to Atlantic Credit &
Finance, Inc with a balance of $2,485.95.
3. Plaintiff purchased or was otherwise assigned this charged off account along with other debts. As
a result of the foregoing sale and assignment, the Plaintiff succeeded to all right, title and interest
in the charged off account, and it now owns the account.
4. Plaintiff conducted a due diligence investigation to determine, among other things, the accuracy of
the account information provided to ascertain whether the statute of limitations was a bar to
demand or institution of suit. Further, Plaintiff and/or its predecessor entered into a contract where
the predecessor made representations and warranties that 1) it had clear right, title and interest in
the account; 2) the account was free and clear of all liens and encumbrances; and 3) it had the
power, authority, and full right to sell and convey its interest in the account.
5. According to Plaintiff's records, the last payment date was June 4, 2006. After application of all

6. The internal Account Statement of Plaintiff is attached hereto as Exhibit A and displays the
account information that was provided to Plaintiff at the time of purchase and assignment.
The foregoing is true and correct to the best of my knowledge and belief.
