RE: Registration Statement on Form S-1
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to Portfolio Acquisitions, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Registrant”) and subsidiary of NCO Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“NCO”), in connection with the preparation and filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) (as may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Registration Statement”) relating to the registration of an indeterminate amount of (i) NCO’s Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2013 and NCO’s 11.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 (collectively, the “Notes”) and (ii) the guarantees by the Registrant of the Notes (the “Guarantees”), in each case to be offered solely for market-making purposes by an affiliate of NCO. The Notes and Guarantees were issued under the Indentures dated as of November 15, 2006 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Indentures”), by and among NCO, the Guarantors and The Bank of New York Mellon, as successor to The Bank of New York, as trustee (the “Trustee”). This opinion is being furnished pursuant to the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of SEC Regulation S-K. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Indentures.
As a basis for rendering the opinions contained herein, we have examined only the following documents: (i) the Registration Statement, (ii) the Indentures, (iii) the Notes, and (v) resolutions of the Registrant. In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity with originals of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies and the authenticity of the originals of such documents, and the correctness of all statements of fact contained in the documents examined. We have not performed any independent investigation other than the document examination described above.
