Special procedures for
beneficial owners

If you are a beneficial owner whose original

bank, trust company or other nominee and you wish to tender your
original notes in the exchange offer, you should promptly
contact the person in whose name the original notes are
registered and instruct that person to tender on your behalf.

If you wish to tender in the exchange offer on
your own behalf, prior to completing and executing the letter of

make appropriate arrangements to register ownership of the
original notes in your name or obtain a properly completed bond
power from the person in whose name the original notes are
registered.
