Proposition Every KK -attendable, unital separable nuclear simple C ∗ -algebra A with T R(A) ≤ 1 which satisfies the AUCT is pre-classifiable.
Simple nuclear $C^*$-algebras of tracial topological rank one
Proof: Let A be a KK -attendable separable nuclear simple C ∗ -algebra with T R(A) ≤ 1 satisfying the AUCT and B be a unital nuclear separable simple C ∗ -algebra with T R(B ) ≤ 1.

Thus by choosing a subsequence {k(n)} and defining Ψn = Φ′ k(n) ◦ Ln : A → B we see that Ψn satisfies (i) and (ii). (In fact one can show that A is KK -attendable.) We then apply the proof of 9.7, to obtain a (new) sequence {Φn} which also satisfies (iii).
