                          Year ended December 31, 1997

            Management Report on the Internal Control Over Financial
            Reporting for the Credit Card Division of People's Bank

Management of People's Bank ("People's") is responsible for establishing and
maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting for 
credit card services of People's, inclusive of the servicing of People's Bank
Credit Card Master Trust, that is sufficient for the prevention and detection
of errors and fraud in amounts that would be material to the consolidated 
financial statements of People's.  This internal control contains 
monitoring mechanisms, and actions are taken to correct deficiencies
identified.

There are inherent limitations in any internal control, including the 
possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of controls.  
Accordingly, even effective internal control can provide only reasonable 
assurance with respect to the preparation of financial information.
Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of any internal 
control may vary over time.

Management assessed whether the internal control over financial
reporting for People's credit card services as of December 31, 1997 was 
sufficient for the prevention and detection of errors and fraud in amounts 
that would be material to the consolidated financial statements
of People's.  The assessment was based on criteria for effective internal
control over financial reporting described in Internal Control - Integrated
Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the 
Treadway Commission.  Based on this assessment, management believes that, as
of December 31, 1997, the credit card services of People's maintained  
effective internal control over financial reporting that was sufficient for
the prevention and detection of errors and fraud in an amount that 
would be material to the consolidated financial statements of People's.

         Management Report on People's Bank Compliance with Article IV,
               Section 4.2 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement

Management of People's Bank ("People's") is responsible for complying with
the provisions of Article IV, Section 4.2 of the Amended and Restated Pooling

dated February 1, 1994, October 1, 1994, March 1, 1995, July 1, 1996,

establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with

provisions of Article IV, Section 4.2 of the Agreement as of December 31, 1997.

People's was in compliance with the provisions set forth in Article IV,
