                  (a) in acting under this Agreement, the Calculation Agent is
             acting solely as an independent expert of the Company and does not
             assume any obligation toward, or any relationship of agency or
             trust for or with, any of the holders of the Securities;

                  (b) unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any order,
             certificate, notice, request, direction or other communication from
             the Company or the Trustee made or given under any provision of
             this Agreement shall be sufficient if signed by any person whom the
             Calculation Agent reasonably believes to be a duly authorized
             officer or attorney-in-fact of the Company or the Trustee, as the
             case may be;

                  (c) the Calculation Agent shall be obliged to perform only
             such duties as are set out specifically herein and any duties
             necessarily incidental thereto;

             other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities with
             the same rights as it would have had if it were not acting
             hereunder as Calculation Agent; and

                  (e) the Calculation Agent shall incur no liability hereunder
             except for loss sustained by reason of its gross negligence or
             willful misconduct.

                  6. Resignation; Removal; Successor. (a) The Calculation Agent
         may at any time resign by giving written notice to the Company of such
         intention on its part, specifying the date on which its desired
         resignation shall become effective, subject to the appointment of a
         successor Calculation Agent and acceptance of such appointment by such
         successor Calculation


                                                                               3


         Agent, as hereinafter provided. The Calculation Agent hereunder may be
         removed at any time by the filing with it of an instrument in writing
         signed by or on behalf of the Company and specifying such removal and
         the date when it shall become effective. Such resignation or removal
         shall take effect upon the appointment by the Company, as hereinafter
         provided, of a successor Calculation Agent and the acceptance of such
         appointment by such successor Calculation Agent. In the event a
         successor Calculation Agent has not been appointed and has not accepted
         its duties within 90 days of the Calculation Agent's notice of
         resignation, the Calculation Agent may apply to any court of competent
         jurisdiction for the designation of a successor Calculation Agent.

                  (b) In case at any time the Calculation Agent shall resign, or

         adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or make an assignment for the benefit
         of its creditors or consent to the appointment of a receiver or
         custodian of all or any substantial part of its property, or shall
         admit in writing its inability to pay or meet its debts as they mature,
         or if a receiver or custodian of it or all or any substantial part of
         its property shall be appointed, or if any public officer shall have
         taken charge or control of the Calculation Agent or of its property or
         affairs, for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or
         liquidation, a successor Calculation Agent shall be appointed by the
         Company by an instrument in writing, filed with the successor
         Calculation Agent. Upon the appointment as aforesaid of a successor
         Calculation Agent and acceptance by the latter of such appointment, the
         Calculation Agent so superseded shall cease to be Calculation Agent
         hereunder.

                  (c) Any successor Calculation Agent appointed hereunder shall
         execute, acknowledge and deliver to its predecessor, to the Company and
         to the Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder and
         agreeing to be bound by the terms hereof, and thereupon such successor
         Calculation Agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall
         become vested with all the authority, rights, powers, trusts,
         immunities, duties and obligations of such predecessor with like effect
         as if originally named as Calculation Agent hereunder, and such
         predecessor, upon payment of its charges and disbursements then unpaid,
         shall thereupon become obligated to transfer, deliver and pay over, and
         such successor Calculation Agent shall be entitled to receive, all
         moneys, securities and other property on deposit with or held by such
         predecessor, as Calculation Agent hereunder.

                  (d) Any corporation into which the Calculation Agent hereunder
         may be merged or converted or any corporation with which the
         Calculation Agent may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting
         from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Calculation
         Agent shall be a party, or any corporation to which the Calculation
         Agent shall sell or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of the
         assets and business of the Calculation Agent shall be the successor
         Calculation Agent under this Agreement without the execution or filing
         of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties
         hereto.

                  7. Certain Definitions. Terms not otherwise defined herein or

                                     ANNEX A

         1. The Index.
            ----------

         The Index is the S&P 500 Index (the "Index"), as calculated, published
and disseminated by Standard & Poor's, a division of McGraw-Hill, Inc. ("S&P").

         2. Determination of the Maturity Payment Amount.
            ---------------------------------------------

         The Calculation Agent shall, at the request of the Trustee, determine
the amount payable on the Stated Maturity Date for each $1,000 principal amount
of Securities (the "Maturity Payment Amount").

         The Maturity Payment Amount shall be the following:

              o    If the Final Index Level is greater than or equal to the
                   Initial Index Level, the lesser of

                   (1)  $1,150; and

                                               Final Index Level
                   (2)  $1,000 + $3,000  x  ( -------------------  - 1)
                                              Initial Index Level


         or

              o    If the Final Index Level is less than the Initial Index
                   Level,

                   $1,000  x    Final Index Level
                             -----------------------
                               Initial Index Level

         3. Discontinuance of the Index.
            ----------------------------

         (a) If S&P discontinues publication of the Index and S&P or another
entity publishes a successor or substitute index (the "Successor Index") that
the Calculation Agent determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good
faith, to be comparable to the discontinued Index, then the Calculation Agent
shall determine the Closing Index Level to be used for purposes of computing the
Maturity Payment Amount.

         (b) Upon any selection by the Calculation Agent of a Successor Index,
the Company shall promptly give notice to the holders of the Securities.

         (c) If S&P discontinues publication of the Index and the Calculation
Agent determines that no Successor Index is available at such time, or if S&P
(or the publisher of any Successor Index) fails to calculate and publish a
Closing Index Level for the Index (or a Successor Index) on any date when it
would ordinarily do so in accordance with its customary practice, the
Calculation Agent will determine the Closing Index Level to be used for purposes
of computing the Maturity Payment Amount. In such circumstances, the Closing
Index Level will be computed


                                                                               2


by the Calculation Agent in accordance with the formula for and method of
calculating the Index (or any Successor Index) last in effect prior to such
discontinuance or failure to publish, using the Closing Price (or, if trading in
any of the relevant securities has been materially suspended or materially
limited, its good faith estimate of the Closing Price that would have prevailed
but for such suspension or limitation) at the Close of Trading on such date of
each security most recently comprising the Index (or any Successor Index) on the
Relevant Exchange on which such security trades.

         4. Alteration of Method of Calculation.
            ------------------------------------

         If at any time the method of calculating the Index, any Successor Index
or the Closing Index Level thereof on any particular day is changed in a
material respect, or if the Index or any Successor Index is in any other way
modified so that such index does not, in the opinion of the Calculation Agent,
fairly represent the level of the Index or such Successor Index had such changes
or modifications not been made, then, from and after such time, the Calculation
Agent will, at the Close of Trading of the Relevant Exchanges on which the
securities comprising the Index or such Successor Index traded on any date the
Closing Index Level thereof is to be determined, make such calculations and
adjustments as, in the good faith judgment of the Calculation Agent, may be
necessary in order to arrive at a level of a stock index comparable to the Index
or such Successor Index, as the case may be, as if such changes or modifications
had not been made. The Calculation Agent will calculate the Closing Index Level
on any particular day and the Maturity Payment Amount with reference to the
Index or such Successor Index, as adjusted. Accordingly, if the method of
calculating the Index or a Successor Index is modified so that the level of such
index is a fraction of what it would have been if it had not been modified, then
the Calculation Agent shall adjust such index in order to arrive at a level of
the Index or such Successor Index as if it had not been modified.

         5. Definitions.
