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 Plaintiffs records, the last payment date was10/31/2007 in the amount of $139.00.
After application of all payments, credits, adjustments, and lawful offsets, if any, there is still a
balance due and owing on this indebtedness of $4,800.30.

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.
