[Issue description ("The Securities")]
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This letter sets forth our understanding with respect to certain
matters relating to the Securities. Agent shall act as trustee, paying agent,
fiscal agent, or other such agent of Issuer with respect to the Securities. The
Securities have been issued pursuant to a trust indenture, trust agreement,
pooling and servicing agreement or other such document authorizing the issuance
of the Securities dated October 1, 1993 (the "Document"). ["Underwriter/
Placement Agent"]**
----------
* This Letter of Representations includes the Addendum attached hereto,
which modifies and supercedes this Letter of Representations to the
extent set forth therein.
** Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. Incorporated; Banc of America Securities LLC;
Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.; ABN AMRO Incorporated; HSBC Securities
(USA) Inc.
is distributing the Securities through The Depository Trust Company ("DTC").
To induce DTC to accept the Securities as eligible for deposit
at DTC, and to act in accordance with its Rules with respect to the Securities,
Issuer and Agent make the following representations to DTC:
1. Prior to closing on the Securities on October 17, 2002
there shall be deposited with DTC one or more Security certificates registered
in the name of DTC's nominee, Cede & Co., for each stated maturity of the
Securities in the face amounts set forth on Schedule A hereto, the total of
which represents 100% of the principal amount of such Securities. If however,
the aggregate principal amount of any maturity exceeds $400 million, one
certificate shall be issued with respect to each $400 million of principal
amount and an additional certificate shall be issued with respect to any
remaining principal amount. Each Security certificate shall bear the following
legend:
Unless this certificate is presented by an authorized
representative of The Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation
("DTC"), to Issuer or its agent for registration of transfer, exchange,
or payment, and any certificate issued is registered in the name of
Cede & Co. or in such other name as is requested by an authorized
representative of DTC (and any payment is made to Cede & Co. or to such
other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC),
ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE, OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR
TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede
& Co., has an interest herein.
Issuer represents:
The Security certificate(s) shall remain in Agent's custody as
a "Balance Certificate" subject to the provisions of the Balance Certificate
Agreement between Agent and DTC currently in effect.
On each day on which Agent is open for business and on which
it receives an instruction originated by a DTC participant ("Participant")
through DTC's Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian ("DWAC") system to increase the
Participant's account by a specified number of Securities (a "Deposit
Instruction"), Agent shall, no later than 6:30 p.m. (Eastern Time) that day,
either approve or cancel the Deposit Instruction through the DWAC system.
On each day on which Agent is open for business and on which
it receives an instruction originated by Participant through the DWAC system to
decrease the Participant's account by a specified number of Securities (a
"Withdrawal Instruction"), Agent shall, no later than 6:30 pm. (Eastern Time)
that day, either approve or cancel the Withdrawal Instruction through the DWAC
system.
2
Agent agrees that its approval of a Deposit or Withdrawal
Instruction shall be deemed to be the receipt by DTC of a new reissued or
reregistered certificated Security on registration of transfer to the name of
Cede & Co. for the quantity of Securities evidenced by the Balance Certificate
after the Deposit or Withdrawal Instruction is effected.
2. Issuer: (a) understands that DTC has no Obligation to, and
will not, communicate to its Participants or to any person having an interest in
the Securities any information contained in the Security certificate(s); and (b)
acknowledges that neither DTC's Participants nor any person having an interest
in the Securities shall be deemed to have notice of the provisions of the
Security certificates by virtue of submission of such certificate(s) to DTC.
3. In the event of any solicitation of consents from or voting
by holders of the Securities, Issuer or Agent shall establish a record date for
such purposes (with no provision for revocation of consents or votes by
subsequent holders) and shall send notice of such record date to DTC no fewer
than 15 calendar days in advance of such record date. Notices to DTC pursuant to
this Paragraph by telecopy shall be directed to DTC's Reorganization Department,
Proxy Unit at (000) 000-0000 or (000) 000-0000. If the party sending the notice

Agent shall send a notice to DTC specifying: (a) the amount of the redemption or
refunding; (b) in the case of a refunding, the maturity date(s) established
under the refunding; and (c) the date such notice is to be distributed to
Security holders (the "Publication Date"). Such notice shall be sent to DTC by a
secure means (e.g. legible telecopy, registered or certified mail, overnight
delivery) in a timely manner designed to assure that such notice is in DTC's
possession no later than the close of business on the business day before or, if
possible, two business days before the Publication Date. Issuer or Agent shall
forward such notice either in a separate secure transmission for each CUSIP
number or in a secure transmission for multiple CUSIP numbers (if applicable)
which includes a manifest or list of each CUSIP number submitted in that

subsequently the use of such means and the timeliness of such notice). The
Publication Date shall be no fewer than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to

time have the right to tender the Securities to Issuer and require that Issuer
repurchase such holders' Securities pursuant to the document and Cede & Co., as
nominee of DTC, or its registered assigns, as the record owner, is entitled to
tender the Securities, such tenders will be effected by means of DTC's Repayment
Option Procedures. Under the Repayment Option Procedures, DTC shall receive,
during the applicable tender period, instructions from its Participants to
tender Securities for purchase. Issuer and Agent agree that such tender for
purchase may be made by DTC by means of a book-entry credit of such Securities
to the account of Agent, provided that such credit is made on or before the
final day of the applicable tender period. DTC agrees that promptly after the
recording of any such book-entry credit, it will provide to Agent an Agent
Receipt and Confirmation or the equivalent, in accordance with the Repayment
Option Procedures, identifying the Securities and the aggregate principal amount
thereof as to which such tender for purchase has been made.
Agent shall send DTC notice regarding such optional tender by
hand or by a secure means (e.g., legible facsimile transmission, registered or
certified mail, overnight delivery) in a timely manner designed to assure that
such notice is in DTC's possession no later than the close of business two
business days before the Publication Date. The Publication Date shall be no
fewer than 15 days prior to the expiration date of the applicable tender period.
Such notice shall state whether any partial redemption of the Securities is
scheduled to occur during the applicable optional tender
-4-

the party sending the notice does not receive a telecopy receipt from DTC

of Securities outstanding or an advance refunding of part of the Securities

SAMPLE OFFERING DOCUMENT LANGUAGE
DESCRIBING BOOK-ENTRY-ONLY ISSUANCE
1. The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), New York, NY, will act as
securities depository for the securities (the "Securities"). The Securities will
be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co.
(DTC's partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an
authorized representative of DTC. One fully-registered Security certificate will
be issued for [each issue of] the Securities, [each] in the aggregate principal
amount of such issue, and will be deposited with DTC. [If, however, the
aggregate principal amount of [any] issue exceeds $400 million, one certificate
will be issued with respect to each $400 million of principal amount and an
additional certificate will be issued with respect to any remaining principal
amount of such issue.]
2. DTC 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. DTC holds securities that its participants ("Direct Participants")
deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the settlement among Direct Participants
of securities transactions, such as transfers and pledges, in deposited
securities through electronic computerized book-entry changes in Direct
Participants' accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of
securities certificates. Direct Participants include securities brokers and
dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other
organizations. DTC is owned by a number of its Direct Participants and by the
New York Stock Exchange, Inc., the American Stock Exchange LLC, an the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Access to the DTC system is also
available others such as securities brokers and dealers, banks, and trust
companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct
Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). The Rules
applicable to DTC and its Direct and Indirect Participants are on file with the
Securities Exchange Commission.
3. Purchases of Securities under the DTC system must be made by or through
Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Securities on DTC's
records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Security
("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect
Participants' records. Beneficial Owners are expected to receive written
confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic
statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through
which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership
interests in the Securities are to be accomplished by entries made on the books
of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners.
Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership
interests in Securities, except in the event that use of the book-entry system
for the Securities is discontinued.
-11-
4. To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Securities deposited by Direct
Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee,
Cede & Co. or such other name as may be requested by an authorized
representative of DTC. The deposit of Securities with DTC and their registration
in the name of Cede & Co. or such other nominee do not effect any change in
beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of
the Securities. DTC's records reflect only the identify of the Direct
Participants to whose accounts such Securities are credited, which may or may
not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain
responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.
5. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct
Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct
Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by
arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as
may be in effect from time to time. [Beneficial Owners of Securities may wish to
take certain steps to augment transmission to them of notices of significant
events with respect to the Securities, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults,
and proposed amendments to the security documents. Beneficial Owners of
Securities may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Securities for
their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices of Beneficial Owners, or
in the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and
addresses to the registrar and request that copies of the notices be provided
directly to them.]
6. [Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the
Securities within an issue are being redeemed, DTC's practice to determine by
lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such issue to be
redeemed.]
7. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor such other DTC nominee) will consent or
vote with respect to the Securities. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an
Omnibus Proxy to Issuer as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus
Proxy assigns Cede & Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those Direct
Participants to whose accounts the Securities are credited on the record date
(identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).
8. Redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend payments on the
Securities will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested
by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC's practice is to credit Direct
Participants' accounts, upon DTC's receipt of funds and corresponding detail
information from Issuer or Agent on payable date in accordance with their
respective holdings shown on DTC's records. Payments by Participants to
Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary
practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in
bearer funds or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility of
such Participant and not of DTC, Agent, or Issuer, subject to any statutory or
regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of
redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividends to Cede & Co. (or such other
nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the
responsibility of Issuer or Agent, disbursement of such payments to Direct
Participants shall be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such
payments to the Beneficial Owners shall be the responsibility of Direct and
Indirect Participants.
-12-
9. [A Beneficial Owner shall give notice to elect to have its Securities
purchased or tendered, through its Participant, to [Tender/Remarketing] Agent,
and shall effect delivery of such Securities by causing the Direct Participant
to transfer the Participant's interest in the Securities, on DTC's records, to
[Tender/Remarketing] Agent. The requirement for physical delivery of Securities
in connection with an optional tender or a mandatory purchase will be deemed
satisfied when the ownership rights in the Securities are transferred by Direct
Participants on DTC's records and followed by a book-entry credit of tendered
Securities to [Tender/Remarketing] Agent's DTC account.]
10. DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository
with respect to the Securities at any time by giving reasonable notice to Issuer
or Agent. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor securities
depository is not obtained, Security certificates are required to be printed and
delivered.
11. Issuer may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry
transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event,
Security certificates will be printed and delivered.
12. The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry
system has been obtained from sources that Issuer believes to be reliable, but
Issuer takes no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.
