All untendered Old Notes will continue to be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in the Old Notes and in the Indenture (as defined herein). In general,
the Old Notes may not be offered or sold, unless registered under the Securities Act, except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the

Each broker-dealer that receives New Notes for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offers must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection
with any resale of such New Notes. The letter of transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to
admit that it is an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a
broker-dealer in connection with resales of New Notes received in exchange for the Old Notes where such Old Notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of
market-making activities or other trading activities. We have agreed that, for a period of 90 days commencing on the day the Exchange Offers are consummated (or
such shorter period during which participating broker-dealers are required by law to deliver such prospectus) we will make available a prospectus meeting the
requirements of the Securities Act for use by broker-dealers in connection with any such resale.

The Exchange Offers are not being made to, nor will we accept exchanges from, holders of any Old Notes in any jurisdiction in which the Exchange Offers or the
acceptance thereof would violate the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdiction or require the registration or qualification of the securities under the securities laws
of such jurisdiction. We are not making an offer to sell the New Notes in any jurisdiction where an offer or sale is not permitted.
For a more detailed description of the New Notes, see "Description of the New Notes and Guarantees" beginning on page 30.

· ?are not participating, and do not intend to participate, and have no arrangement or
understanding with any person to participate in, the distribution of the New Notes
issued in the Exchange Offers; and

· ?are not an "affiliate" of ours, as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act.

By tendering Old Notes as described in "The Exchange Offers--Procedures for Tendering
Old Notes", you will be making written representations to this effect. If you fail to satisfy any
of these conditions, you cannot rely on the position of the SEC set forth in the interpretive
letters referred to above and you must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery
requirements of the Securities Act in connection with a resale of the New Notes.

If you are a broker-dealer that acquired Old Notes as a result of market-making or other
trading activities, you must comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities
Act in connection with a resale of the New Notes as described in this summary under
"Restrictions on Sale by Broker-Dealers" below.

Table of Contents

We base our belief on interpretations by the SEC staff in interpretive letters issued to other
issuers in exchange offers like ours. We cannot guarantee that the SEC would make a similar
decision about our Exchange Offers. If our belief is wrong, you could incur liability under the
Securities Act. We will not protect you against any loss incurred as a result of this liability
under the Securities Act.
We have not entered into any arrangement or understanding with any person who will receive
New Notes in the Exchange Offers to distribute those New Notes following completion of the
Exchange Offers. We are not aware of any person that will participate in the Exchange Offers
with a view to distribute the New Notes.
Restrictions on Sale by Broker-Dealers
If you are a broker-dealer that has received New Notes for your own account in exchange for
Old Notes that were acquired as a result of market-making or other trading activities, you must
acknowledge that you will deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act
in connection with any resale of New Notes. For a period of 90 days commencing on the day
the Exchange Offers are consummated (or such shorter period during which participating
broker-dealers are required by law to deliver such prospectus) we will make available a
prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act for use by broker-dealers in
connection with any such resale.
Consequences of Not Exchanging Old Notes for
New Notes
If you are eligible to participate in the Exchange Offers and you do not tender your Old Notes,
you will not have any further registration or exchange rights and your Old Notes will continue
to be subject to transfer restrictions. These transfer restrictions and the availability of New
Notes could adversely affect the trading market for your Old Notes. The Old Notes and the
New Notes will not be fungible. To the extent that Old Notes are tendered and accepted in the
Exchange Offers, the trading market for any remaining Old Notes may (and likely will) be
adversely affected. See "Risk Factors--Risks Relating to the Exchange Offers".
