                  [Issue description, including CUSIP number (the "Securities")]

Ladies and Gentlemen:

        This letter sets forth our understanding with respect to certain matters
relating to the Securities. Issuance of the Securities has been authorized
pursuant to an offering document or other such agreement dated 11-5-04 (the
"Document"). Issuer is selling the Securities to Bear Hunter (the "Initial
Purchaser") pursuant to the Document. Initial Purchaser shall take delivery of
the Securities through The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"). Agent is acting as
transfer agent, paying agent, and registrar with respect to the Securities.

        To induce DTC to accept the Securities as eligible for deposit at DTC,
and to act in accordance with its Rules with respect to the Securities, Issuer
and Agent make the following representations to DTC:





     1. Prior to closing on the Securities on 11-8-04 there shall be deposited
with DTC one or more Security certificates registered in the name of DTC's
nominee, Cede & Co., for each of the Securities with the offering value(s) set
forth on Schedule A hereto, the total of which represents 100% of the offering
value of such Securities. If, however, the aggregate offering value of the
Securities exceeds $400 million, one certificate shall be issued with respect to
each $400 million of offering value and an additional certificate shall be
issued with respect to any remaining offering value. Each Security certificate
shall bear the following legend:

               Unless this certificate is presented by an
          authorized representative of The Depository Trust
          Company, a New York corporation ("DTC'), to Issuer
          or its agent for registration of transfer,
          exchange, or payment, and any certificate issued
          is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or in such
          other name as is requested by an authorized
          representative of DTC (and any payment is made to
          Cede & Co. or to such other entity as is requested
          by an authorized representative of DTC), ANY
          TRANSFER, PLEDGE, OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE
          OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL inasmuch
          as the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co.,has an
          interest herein.

Issuer represents: [NOTE: ISSUER MUST REPRESENT ONE OF THE FOLLOWING, AND SHALL
CROSS OUT THE OTHER.]

     [The Security certificate(s) shall remain in Agent's custody as a "Balance
Certificate" subject to the provisions of the Balance Certificate Agreement
between Agent and DTC currently in effect.

     On each day on which Agent is open for business and on which it receives an
instruction originated by a DTC participant ("Participant") through DTC's
Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian ("DWAC") system to increase the Participant's
account by a specified number of Securities (a "Deposit Instruction"), Agent
shall, no later than 6:30 p.m. (Eastern Time) that day, either approve or cancel
the Deposit Instruction through the DWAC system.

     On each day on which Agent is open for business and on which it receives an
instruction originated by a Participant through the DWAC system to decrease the
Participant's account by a specified number of Securities (a "Withdrawal
Instruction"), Agent shall, no later than 6:30 p.m. (Eastern Time) that day,
either approve or cancel the Withdrawal Instruction through the DWAC system.

     Agent agrees that its approval of a Deposit or Withdrawal Instruction
shall be deemed to be the receipt by DTC of a new reissued or reregistered
certificated Security on registration of transfer to the name of Cede & Co. for
the quantity of Securities evidenced by the Balance Certificate after the
Deposit or Withdrawal Instruction is effected.]

     [The Security certificate(s) shall be custodied with DTC.]

     2. Issuer: (a) understands that DTC has no obligation to, and will not,
communicate to its Participants or to any person having an interest in the
Securities any information contained in the

                                      -2-


Security certificate(s); and (b) acknowledges that neither DTC's Participants
nor any person having an interest in the Securities shall be deemed to have
notice of the provisions of the Security certificates(s) by virtue of submission
of such certificate(s) to DTC.

     3. In the event of any solicitation of consents from or voting by holders
of the Securities, Issuer or Agent shall establish a record date for such
purposes (with no provision for revocation of consents or votes by subsequent
holders) and shall send notice of such record date to DTC no fewer than 15
calendar days in advance of such record date. Notices to DTC pursuant to this
Paragraph by telecopy shall be directed to DTC's Reorganization Department at
(212) 855-5181 or (212) 855-5182. If the party sending the notice does not
receive a telecopy receipt from DTC confirming that the notice has been
received, such party shall telephone (212) 855-5202. Notices to DTC pursuant to
this Paragraph, by mail or by any other means, shall be sent to:

     4. In the event of a stock split, recapitalization, conversion, or any
similar transaction resulting in the cancellation of all or any part of the
Securities represented thereby, Agent shall send DTC a notice of such event as
soon as practicable, but in no event less than five business days prior to the
effective date of such transaction. Notices pursuant to this Paragraph regarding
stock splits shall be directed to DTC's Dividend Department as indicated in
Paragraph 6. All other notices pursuant to this Paragraph shall be directed to
DTC's Reorganization Department as also indicated in Paragraph 6.

     5. In the event of a full or partial redemption, Issuer or Agent shall send
a notice to DTC specifying: (a) the amount of the redemption or refunding; (b)
in the case of a refunding, the maturity date(s) established under the
refunding; and (c) the date such notice is to be distributed to Security holders
(the "Publication Date"). Such notice shall be sent to DTC by a secure means
(e.g., legible telecopy, registered or certified mail, overnight delivery) in a
timely manner designed to assure that such notice is in DTC's possession no
later than the close of business on the business day before or, if possible, two
business days before the Publication Date. Issuer or Agent shall forward such
notice either in a separate secure transmission for each CUSIP number or in a
secure transmission for multiple CUSIP numbers (if applicable) which includes a
manifest or list of each CUSIP number submitted in that transmission. (The party
sending such notice shall have a method to verify subsequently the use of such
means and the timeliness of such notice.) The Publication Date shall be no fewer
than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date or, in the case
of an advance refunding, the date that the proceeds are deposited in escrow.

     6. In the event of an offering or issuance of rights with respect to the
Securities outstanding, Agent shall send DTC's Dividend and Reorganization
Departments a notice specifying: (a) the amount of and conditions, if any,
applicable to such rights offering or issuance; (b) any applicable expiration or
deadline date, or any date by which any action on the part of holders of such
Securities is required; and (c) the Publication Date of such notice. The

     16. In the event of a redemption, acceleration, or any other similar
transaction (e.g., tender made and accepted in response to Issuer's or Agent's
invitation) necessitating a reduction in the aggregate principal amount of
Securities outstanding or an advance refunding of part of the Securities
outstanding, DTC, in its discretion: (a) may request Issuer or Agent to issue
and authenticate a new Security certificate; or (b) may make an appropriate
notation on the Security certificate indicating the date and amount of such
reduction in the number of Securities outstanding, except in the case of final
redemption, in which case the certificate will be presented to Issuer or Agent
prior to payment, if required.

Securities shall be able to obtain certificated Securities, Issuer or Agent
shall notify DTC of the availability of certificates. In such event, Issuer or
Agent shall issue, transfer, and exchange certificates in appropriate amounts,
as required by DTC and others.

     18. DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository
with respect to the Securities at any lime by giving reasonable notice to Issuer
or Agent (at which time DTC will confirm with issuer or Agent the aggregate
principal amount of Securities outstanding). Under such circumstances, at DTC's
request, Issuer and Agent shall cooperate fully with DTC by taking appropriate
action to make available one or more separate certificates evidencing Securities
to any Participant having Securities credited to its DTC accounts.

     19. Nothing herein shall be deemed to require Agent to advance funds on
behalf of Issuer.

     20. This Letter of Representations may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original,
but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same
instrument.

accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to
principles of conflicts of law.

                                      -6-


     22. The sender of each notice delivered to DTC pursuant to this Letter of
Representations is responsible for confirming that such notice was properly
received by DTC.

     23. Issuer recognizes that DTC does not in any way undertake to, and shall
not have any responsibility to, monitor or ascertain the compliance of any
transactions in the Securities with the following, as amended from time to time.
(a) any exemptions from registration under the Securities Act of 1933; (b) the
Investment Company Act of 1940; (c) the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
of 1974; (d) the Internal Revenue Code of 1986; (e) any rules of any
self-regulatory organizations (as defined under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934); or (f) any other local, state, or federal laws or regulations thereunder.

     24. Issuer hereby authorizes DTC to provide to Agent listings of DTC
Participants' holdings, known as Security Position Listings ("SPLs"), with
respect to the Securities from time to time at the request of the Agent. DTC
charges a fee for such SPLs. This authorization, unless revoked by Issuer, shall
continue with respect to the Securities while any Securities are on deposit at
DTC, until and unless Agent shall no longer be acting. In such event, Issuer
shall provide DTC with similar evidence, satisfactory to DTC, of the
authorization of any successor thereto so to act. Requests for SPLs shall be
sent by telecopy to the Proxy Unit of DTC's Reorganization Department at (212)
855-5181 or (212) 855-5182. Receipt of such requests shall be confirmed by
telephoning (212) 855-5202. Requests for SPLs, sent by mail or by any other
means, shall be directed to:

                       Supervisor, Proxy Unit

securities depository for the securities (the "Securities"). The Securities will
be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co.
(DTC's partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an
authorized representative of DTC. One fully-registered Security certificate will
be issued for [each issue of] the Securities, [each] in the aggregate principal
amount of such issue, and will be deposited with DTC. [If, however, the
aggregate principal amount of [any] issue exceeds $400 million, one certificate
will be issued with respect to each $400 million of principal amount and an
additional certificate will be issued with respect to any remaining principal
amount of such issue.]

     2. DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York
Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking
Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the
meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency"
registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934. DTC holds securities that its participants ("Direct Participants")
deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the settlement among Direct Participants
of securities transactions, such as transfers and pledges, in deposited
securities through electronic computerized book-entry changes in Direct
Participants' accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of
securities certificates. Direct Participants include securities brokers and
dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other
organizations. DTC is owned by a number of its Direct Participants and by the
New York Stock Exchange, Inc., the American Stock Exchange LLC, and the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Access to the DTC system is also
available to others such as securities brokers and dealers, banks, and trust
companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct
Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). The Rules
applicable to DTC and its Direct and Indirect Participants are on file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

     3. Purchases of Securities under the DTC system must be made by or through
Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Securities on DTC's
records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Security
("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect
Participants' records. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation
from DTC of their purchase, but Beneficial Owners are expected to receive
written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic
statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through
which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership
interests in the Securities are to be accomplished by entries made on the books
of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners.
Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership
interests in Securities, except in the event that use of the book-entry system
for the Securities is discontinued.

     4. To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Securities deposited by Direct
Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee,
Cede & Co. or such other name as may be requested by an authorized
representative of DTC. The deposit of Securities with DTC and their registration
in the name of Cede & Co. or such other nominee do not effect any change in
beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of
the Securities; DTC's records reflect only the identity of the Direct
Participants to whose accounts such Securities are credited, which may or may
not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain
responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.

     5. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct
Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct
Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by
arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as
may be in effect from time to time. [Beneficial Owners of Securities may wish to
take certain steps to augment transmission to them of notices of significant
events with respect to the Securities, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults,
and proposed amendments to the security documents. Beneficial Owners of
Securities may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Securities for
their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners, or
in the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and
addresses to the registrar and request that copies of the notices be provided
directly to them.]

     [6. Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the
Securities within an issue are being redeemed, DTC's practice is to determine by
lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such issue to be
redeemed.]

     7. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor such other DTC nominee) will consent or
vote with respect to the Securities. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an
Omnibus Proxy to Issuer as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus
Proxy assigns Cede & Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those Direct
Participants to whose accounts the Securities are credited on the record date
(identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).

     8. Redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend payments on the
Securities will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested
by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC's practice is to credit Direct
Participants' accounts, upon DTC's receipt of funds and corresponding detail
information from Issuer or Agent on payable date in accordance with their
respective holdings shown on DTC's records. Payments by Participants to
Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary
practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in
bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility of
such Participant and not of DTC, Agent, or Issuer, subject to any statutory or
regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of
redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividends to Cede & Co. (or such other
nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the
responsibility of Issuer or Agent, disbursement of such payments to Direct
Participants shall be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such
payments to the Beneficial Owners shall be the responsibility of Direct and
Indirect Participants.

                                      -11-


     [9. A Beneficial Owner shall give notice to elect to have its Securities
purchased or tendered, through its Participant, to [Tender/Remarketing] Agent,
and shall effect delivery of such Securities by causing the Direct Participant
to transfer the Participant's interest in the Securities, on DTC's records, to
[Tender/Remarketing] Agent. The requirement for physical delivery of Securities
in connection with an optional tender or a mandatory purchase will be deemed
satisfied when the ownership rights in the Securities are transferred by Direct
Participants on DTC's records and followed by a book-entry credit of tendered
Securities to [Tender/Remarketing] Agent's DTC account.]

     10. DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository
with respect to the Securities at any time by giving reasonable notice to Issuer
or Agent. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor securities
depository is not obtained, Security certificates are required to be printed and
delivered.

     11. Issuer may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry
transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event,
Security certificates will be printed and delivered.

     12. The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry
system has been obtained from sources that Issuer believes to be reliable, but
Issuer takes no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.
