Reference is made to the registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) on Form S-3 (File Nos. 333-192577, 333-192577-01 and 333-192577-03) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 27, 2013 (as amended by pre-effective Amendment No. 1 filed on January 15, 2014, pre-effective Amendment No. 2 filed on February 7, 2014 and pre-effective Amendment No. 3 filed on March 6, 2014) and declared effective on March 12, 2014. On March 25, 2014, Cabela’s Credit Card Master Note Trust publicly issued $255,000,000 of the Underwritten Notes described in a Prospectus Supplement dated March 18, 2014 to a Prospectus dated March 18, 2014.
