Fiscal Agent

The Agency Agreement governs the duties of the Agents. The State Treasury may maintain deposit accounts and conduct
other banking transactions in the ordinary course of business with the Agents.

Citibank N.A., London, is the Fiscal Agent of the Notes under the Agency Agreement.
The Fiscal Agent is an agent of the State Treasury, is not a trustee for the holders of the Notes and does not have the
responsibility or duty to act for the holders of the Notes as would a trustee.
Form and Registration

The Notes will be issued in the form of one or more fully registered global notes, or the Global Notes, which will be deposited
with, or on behalf of, The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York, the Depositary or DTC, and registered in the
name of Cede & Co., the Depositary's nominee. Beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be represented through book-
entry accounts of financial institutions acting on behalf of beneficial owners as direct and indirect participants in the
Depositary. Investors may elect to hold interests in the Global Notes in the United States through the Depositary or in Europe
through Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., or Euroclear, or Clearstream Banking, société anonyme, or Clearstream, Luxembourg, if
they are participants of such systems, or indirectly through organizations which are participants in such systems. Euroclear
and Clearstream, Luxembourg will hold interests on behalf of their participants through customers' securities accounts in
Euroclear's and Clearstream, Luxembourg's names on the books of their respective depositaries, which in turn will hold such
interests in customers' securities accounts in the depositaries' names on the books of the Depositary.

The Clearing Systems
The Depositary advises that it 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, or the Exchange Act. The Depositary holds securities
deposited with it by its participants and facilitates the settlement of transactions among its participants in such securities
through electronic computerized book-entry changes in accounts of the participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical
movement of securities certificates. The Depositary's participants include securities brokers and dealers (including the
underwriters), banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations, some of which (and/or their
representatives) own the Depositary. Access to the Depositary's book-entry system is also available to others, such as banks,
brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a participant, either directly or
indirectly.

Euroclear advises that the system it operates, the Euroclear System, was created in 1968 to hold securities for its participants,
or Euroclear Participants, and to clear and settle transactions between Euroclear Participants through simultaneous electronic
book-entry delivery against payment, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of certificates and any risk from
lack of simultaneous transfers of securities and cash. Euroclear provides various other services, including securities lending
and borrowing and interfaces with domestic markets in several countries. Euroclear Participants include banks (including
central banks), securities brokers and dealers and other professional financial intermediaries and may include the
Underwriters. Indirect access to the Euroclear System is also available to other firms that clear through or maintain a custodial
relationship with a Euroclear Participant, either directly or indirectly.

Securities clearance accounts and cash accounts with Euroclear are governed by the Terms and Conditions Governing Use of
Euroclear and the related Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System and applicable Belgian law, collectively, the
Euroclear Terms and Conditions. The Euroclear Terms and Conditions govern transfers of securities and cash within the
Euroclear System, withdrawals of

securities and cash from Euroclear and receipts of payments with respect to securities in the Euroclear System. All securities
in the Euroclear System are held on a fungible basis without attribution of specific certificates to specific securities clearance
accounts. Euroclear acts under the Euroclear Terms and Conditions only on behalf of Euroclear Participants and has no record
of or relationship with persons holding through Euroclear Participants.

Distributions with respect to the Notes held beneficially through Euroclear will be credited to the cash accounts of Euroclear
Participants in accordance with the Euroclear Terms and Conditions, to the extent received by Euroclear.

Clearstream, Luxembourg advises that it is incorporated under the laws of Luxembourg as a professional
depositary. Clearstream, Luxembourg holds securities for its participating organizations, or Clearstream Participants, and
facilitates the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between Clearstream Participants through electronic book-
entry changes in accounts of Clearstream Participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of
certificates. Clearstream, Luxembourg provides to Clearstream Participants, among other things, services for safekeeping,
administration, clearance and settlement of internationally traded securities and securities lending and
borrowing. Clearstream, Luxembourg interfaces with domestic markets in several countries. As a professional depositary,
Clearstream, Luxembourg is subject to regulation by the Luxembourg Monetary Institute. Clearstream Participants are
recognized financial institutions around the world, including underwriters, securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust
companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations and may include the Underwriters. Indirect access to
Clearstream, Luxembourg is also available to others, such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or
maintain a custodial relationship with a Clearstream Participant, either directly or indirectly.
Distributions with respect to the Notes held beneficially through Clearstream, Luxembourg will be credited to cash accounts of
Clearstream Participants in accordance with its rules and procedures, to the extent received by Clearstream, Luxembourg.

Title to book-entry interests in the Notes will pass by book-entry registration of the transfer within the records of Euroclear,
Clearstream, Luxembourg or DTC, as the case may be, in accordance with their respective procedures. Book-entry interests in
the Notes may be transferred within the Euroclear System and within Clearstream, Luxembourg and between Euroclear and
Clearstream, Luxembourg in accordance with procedures established for these purposes by Euroclear and Clearstream,
Luxembourg. Book-entry interests in the Notes may be transferred within DTC in accordance with procedures established for
this purpose by DTC. Transfers of book-entry interests in the Notes between Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg and
DTC may be effected in accordance with procedures established for this purpose by Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg and
DTC.

Definitive Notes

Individual certificates in respect of the Notes will not be issued in exchange for the Global Notes, except in very limited
circumstances. If DTC or each of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg notifies the State Treasury that it is unwilling or
unable to continue as a clearing system in connection with the Global Notes or, in the case of DTC only, DTC ceases to be a
clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and in each case a successor clearing system is not appointed by the State
Treasury within 90 days after receiving such notice from Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg or DTC or on becoming aware
that DTC is no longer so registered, the State Treasury will issue or cause to be issued individual certificates in registered form
on registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, book-entry interests in the Notes represented by such Global Notes upon
delivery or such Global Notes for cancellation.

If such certificates are issued and so long as the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules of the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange require, the Luxembourg Agent will act as paying agent and transfer agent in Luxembourg and
the holders of the Notes will be able to receive payments thereon and effect transfers thereof at the offices of the Luxembourg
Agent, 69 route d'Esch, L-2953
