Calculation Agent:    BMO Capital Markets Corp. For each Interest Period, the Calculation Agent will calculate the amount of accrued interest by multiplying the principal amount of the Floating Rate Note by an accrued interest factor for the Interest Period. This factor will equal the sum of the interest factors calculated for each day during the Interest Period. The interest factor for each day will be expressed as a decimal and will be calculated by dividing the interest rate, also expressed as a decimal, applicable to that day by 360.
