REVERSE OF CAPITAL SECURITY
Distributions payable on each Capital Security will be payable at an
annual rate equal to 6.86% beginning on (and including) the date of original
issuance and ending on (but excluding) the Distribution Payment Date in
September 2007 and at an annual rate for each successive period beginning on
(and including) the Distribution Payment Date in September 2007, and each
succeeding Distribution Payment Date, and ending on (but excluding) the next
succeeding Distribution Payment Date (each a "Distribution Period"), equal to
3-Month LIBOR, determined as described below, plus 1.50% (the "Coupon Rate"),
applied to the stated liquidation amount of $1,000.00 per Capital Security, such
rate being the rate of interest payable on the Debentures to be held by the
Institutional Trustee. Distributions in arrears will bear interest thereon
compounded quarterly at the Distribution Rate (to the extent permitted by
applicable law). The term "Distributions" as used herein includes cash
distributions and any such compounded distributions unless otherwise noted. A
Distribution is payable only to the extent that payments are made in respect of
the Debentures held by the Institutional Trustee and to the extent the
Institutional Trustee has funds available therefor. As used herein,
"Determination Date" means the date that is two London Banking Days (i.e., a
business day in which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted in the
London interbank market) preceding the commencement of the relevant Distribution
Period. The amount of the Distribution payable for any Distribution Period will
be calculated by applying the Distribution Rate to the stated liquidation amount
outstanding at the commencement of the Distribution Period on the basis of the
actual number of days in the Distribution Period concerned divided by 360.
"3-Month LIBOR" as used herein, means the London interbank offered
interest rate for three-month U.S. dollar deposits determined by the Debenture
Trustee in the following order of priority: (i) the rate (expressed as a
percentage per annum) for U.S. dollar deposits having a three-month maturity
that appears on Reuters Page LIBOR01 as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the
related Determination Date ("Reuters Page LIBOR01" means the display designated
as "LIBOR01" on Reuters or such other page as may replace Reuters Page LIBOR01
on that service or such other service or services as may be nominated by the
British Bankers' Association as the information vendor for the purpose of
displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits); (ii) if
such rate cannot be identified on the related Determination Date, the Debenture
Trustee will request the principal London offices of four leading banks in the
London interbank market to provide such banks' offered quotations (expressed as
percentages per annum) to prime banks in the London interbank market for U.S.
dollar deposits having a three-month maturity as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on
such Determination Date. If at least two quotations are provided, 3-Month LIBOR
will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations; (iii) if fewer than two such
quotations are provided as requested in clause (ii) above, the Debenture Trustee
will request four major New York City banks to provide such banks' offered
quotations (expressed as percentages per annum) to leading European banks for
loans in U.S. dollars as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such Determination Date.
If at least two such quotations are provided, 3-Month LIBOR will be the
arithmetic mean of such quotations; and (iv) if fewer than two such quotations
are provided as requested in clause (iii) above, 3-Month LIBOR will be a 3-Month
LIBOR determined with respect to the Distribution Period immediately preceding
such current Distribution Period. If the rate for U.S. dollar deposits having a
three-month maturity that initially appears on Reuters Page LIBOR01 as of 11:00
a.m. (London time) on the related Determination Date is superseded on the
Reuters Page LIBOR01 by a corrected rate by 12:00 noon (London time) on such
Determination Date, then the corrected rate as so substituted on the applicable
page will be the applicable 3-Month LIBOR for such Determination Date.
The Distribution Rate for any Distribution Period will at no time be
higher than the maximum rate then permitted by New York law as the same may be
modified by United States law.
All percentages resulting from any calculations on the Capital
Securities will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth
of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded
upward (e.g., 9.876545% (or .09876545) being rounded to 9.87655% (or .0987655),
and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculation will be
rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upward)).
Except as otherwise described below, Distributions on the Capital
Securities will be cumulative, will accrue from the date of original issuance
and will be payable quarterly in arrears on March 15, June 15, September 15 and
December 15 of each year or if any such day is not a Business Day, then the next
succeeding Business Day (each such day, a "Distribution Payment Date") (it being
understood that interest accrues for any such non-Business Day), commencing on
the Distribution Payment Date in September 2007. The Debenture Issuer has the
right under the Indenture to defer payments of interest on the Debentures, so
long as no Acceleration Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, by
extending the interest payment period for up to 20 consecutive quarterly periods
(each an "Extension Period") at any time and from time to time on the
Debentures, subject to the conditions described below, during which Extension
Period no interest shall be due and payable. During any Extension Period,
interest will continue to accrue on the Debentures, and interest on such accrued
interest will accrue at an annual rate equal to the Distribution Rate in effect
for each such Extension Period, compounded quarterly from the date such interest
would have been payable were it not for the Extension Period, to the extent
permitted by law (such interest referred to herein as "Additional Interest"). No
Extension Period may end on a date other than a Distribution Payment Date. At
the end of any such Extension Period, the Debenture Issuer shall pay all
interest then accrued and unpaid on the Debentures (together with Additional
Interest thereon); provided, however, that no Extension Period may extend beyond
the Maturity Date. Prior to the termination of any Extension Period, the
Debenture Issuer may further extend such period, provided that such period
together with all such previous and further consecutive extensions thereof shall
not exceed 20 consecutive quarterly periods, or extend beyond the Maturity Date.
Upon the termination of any Extension Period and upon the payment of all accrued
and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, the Debenture Issuer may commence a
new Extension Period, subject to the foregoing requirements. No interest or
Additional Interest shall be due and payable during an Extension Period, except
at the end thereof, but each installment of interest that would otherwise have
been due and payable during such Extension Period shall bear Additional
Interest. During any Extension Period, Distributions on the Capital Securities
shall be deferred for a period equal to the Extension Period. If Distributions
are deferred, the Distributions due shall be paid on the date that the related
Extension Period terminates, to Holders of the Securities as they appear on the
books and records of the Trust on the record date immediately preceding such
date. Distributions on the Securities must be paid on the dates payable (after
giving effect to any Extension Period) to the extent that the Trust has funds
available for the payment of such distributions in the Property Account of the
Trust. The Trust's funds available for Distribution to the Holders of the
Securities will be limited to payments received from the Debenture Issuer. The
payment of Distributions out of moneys held by the Trust is guaranteed by the
Guarantor pursuant to the Guarantee.
The Capital Securities shall be redeemable as provided in the
Declaration.
