Optional Redemption:

The Notes may be redeemed at our option, at any time in whole or from time to time in part. The redemption price for
the Notes to be redeemed on any redemption date will be equal to the greater of the following amounts:

· 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed on the redemption date; or
· the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes being
redeemed on that redemption date (not including any portion of any payments of interest accrued to the redemption
date) discounted to the redemption date on a semiannual basis at the Treasury Rate (as defined below), as determined
by the Independent Investment Banker (as defined below), plus 20 basis points;

plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes to the redemption date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on the Notes that are due and payable on interest payment
dates falling on or prior to a redemption date will be payable on the interest payment date to the registered holders as of the
close of business on the relevant record date according to the Notes and the indenture. The redemption price will be calculated
on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

We will mail notice of any redemption at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each
registered holder of the Notes to be redeemed. Once notice of redemption is mailed, the Notes called for redemption will
become due and payable on the redemption date and at the applicable redemption price, plus accrued and unpaid interest to,
but not including, the redemption date.

"Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent
yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a
percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date.

"Comparable Treasury Issue" means the United States Treasury security selected by the Independent Investment
Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time
of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of
comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Notes.

"Comparable Treasury Price" means, with respect to any redemption date, (A) the average of the Reference Treasury
Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer
Quotations, or (B) if the trustee obtains fewer than three such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such
Quotations, or (C) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such Quotation.
2

"Independent Investment Banker" means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the trustee after
consultation with us.

"Reference Treasury Dealer" means each of Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith
Incorporated and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC (or their respective affiliates which are Primary Treasury Dealers), and their
respective successors; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities
dealer in New York City (a "Primary Treasury Dealer"), we will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.

"Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation" means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption
date, the average, as determined by the trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in
each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the trustee by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00
p.m. (New York City time) on the third business day preceding such redemption date.

On and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or any portion of the Notes called for
redemption (unless we default in the payment of the redemption price and accrued interest). On or before the redemption date,
we will deposit with a paying agent or the trustee money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on the
Notes to be redeemed on that date. If less than all of the securities of any series are to be redeemed, the securities to be

redeemed shall be selected by the trustee by a method the trustee deems to be fair and appropriate. The Notes will not be
entitled to the benefit of any mandatory redemption or sinking fund.
