the product of (i) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in
such Dividend Period (calculated by counting the first day of such Dividend
Period but excluding the last day thereof) and the denominator of which is
360, times (ii) 1/4 of 1%, times (iii) $25,000, times (iv) the sum of (A) the
aggregate number of AMPS placed by BD in the applicable Auction that were (x)
the subject of a Submitted Bid of a Beneficial Owner submitted by BD and
continued to be held as a result of such submission and (y) the subject of a
Submitted Bid of a Potential Beneficial Owner submitted by BD and were
purchased as a result of such submission plus (B) the aggregate number of AMPS
subject to valid Hold Orders (determined in accordance with Paragraph 10 of
the Certificate of Designation) submitted to the Auction Agent by BD plus (C)
the number of AMPS deemed to be subject to Hold Orders by Beneficial Owners
pursuant to Paragraph 10 of the Certificate of Designation that were acquired
by such Beneficial Owners through BD; and (b) in the case of any Auction Date
immediately preceding a Special Dividend Period, that amount as mutually
agreed upon by the Company and BD, based on the selling concession that would
be applicable to an underwriting of fixed or variable rate preferred shares
with a similar final maturity or variable rate dividend period, at the
commencement of such Special Dividend Period.
6
For purposes of subclause (a)(iv)(C) of the foregoing sentence, if any
Beneficial Owner who acquired shares of the AMPS through BD transfers those
shares to another Person other than pursuant to an Auction, then the
Broker-Dealer for the shares so transferred shall continue to be BD, provided,
