EXHIBIT C

Tax Matters

Under U.S. federal income tax law, an Exchanging Investor who exchanges Existing Notes for the Exchange Consideration generally must provide such Exchanging Investor’s correct taxpayer identification number (“TIN”) on IRS Form W-9 (attached hereto) or otherwise establish a basis for exemption from backup withholding. A TIN is generally an individual holder’s social security number or an Exchanging Investor’s employer identification number. If the correct TIN is not provided, the Exchanging Investor may be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the IRS. In addition, certain payments made to holders may be subject to U.S. backup withholding tax (currently set at 24% of the payment). If an Exchanging Investor is required to provide a TIN but does not have the TIN, the Exchanging Investor should consult its tax advisor regarding how to obtain a TIN. Certain holders are not subject to these backup withholding and reporting requirements. Non-U.S. Holders generally may establish their status as exempt recipients from backup withholding by submitting a properly completed applicable IRS Form W-8 (available from the Company or the IRS at xxx.xxx.xxx), signed, under penalties of perjury, attesting to such Exchanging Investor’s exempt foreign status. U.S. backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the U.S. federal income tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. the Exchanging Investors are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding how to complete the appropriate forms and to determine whether they are exempt from backup withholding or other withholding taxes.
