Credit Fund II, Ltd.;





2. Based
on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements
made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made,
not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;

included in this report, fairly present in all material respects the
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the registrant

4. The
registrant's other certifying officer and I are responsible for establishing and
maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act

reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a–15(f) and 15d–15(f)) for
the registrant and have:





(a)  Designed
such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls
and procedures to be designed under our supervision, to ensure that
material information relating to the registrant, including its consolidated
subsidiaries is made known to us by others within those entities,
particularly during the period in which this report is being
prepared;





(b)  Designed
such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such internal control

in this report any change in the registrant's internal control over financial
reporting that occurred during the registrant's most recent fiscal quarter
(the registrant's fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report)
that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect,
the registrant's internal control over financial reporting; and





5. The
registrant's other certifying officer and I have disclosed, based on our most
recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to the
registrant's auditors and the audit committee of the registrant's board of
directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):





(a)  All
significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of
internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to
adversely affect the registrant's ability to record, process, summarize and
report financial information; and





(b)  Any
fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who
have a significant role in the registrant's internal control over financial
reporting.
