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



--------

* This Letter of Representations includes the Addendum attached hereto, which
  modifies and supercedes this Letter of Representations to the extent set forth
  therein.

the Securities dated October 1, 1993 (the "Document"). Morgan Stanley & Co.
Incorporated; ABN AMRO Incorporated; Barclays Capital Inc.; Commerzbank Capital
Markets Corp.; Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. ["Underwriter/Placement Agent"] 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 March 14, 2000 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



<PAGE>   3

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.

                  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 (212) 855-5181 or (212) 855-5182. If the party sending the notice
does not receive a telecopy receipt from DTC confirming that the notice has been
received, such party shall telephone (212) 855-5202. Notices to DTC pursuant to
this Paragraph, by mail or by any other means, shall be sent to:

                                    Supervisor, Proxy Unit

                  4. In the event of a full or partial redemption, Issuer or
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
transmission. (The party sending such notice shall have a method to verify
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
the redemption date or, in the case of an advance refunding, the date that the
proceeds are deposited in escrow. Notices to DTC pursuant to this Paragraph by
telecopy shall be directed to DTC's Call Notification Department at (516)
227-4164 or (516) 227-4190. If the party sending the



<PAGE>   4

notice does not receive a telecopy receipt from DTC confirming that the notice
has been received, such party shall telephone (516) 227-4070. Notices to DTC
pursuant to this Paragraph, by mail or by any other means, shall be sent to:

                                    Manager, Call Notification Department
                                    The Depository Trust Company
                                    711 Stewart Avenue

                  5. In the event of an invitation to tender the Securities
(including mandatory tenders, exchanges, and capital changes), notice by Issuer
or Agent to Security holders shall be sent to DTC specifying the terms of the
tender and the Publication Date of such notice. 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

that transmission. (The party sending such notice shall have a method to verify
subsequently the use and timeliness of such notice.) Notices to DTC pursuant to
this Paragraph and notices of other corporate actions by telecopy shall be
directed to DTC's Reorganization Department at (212) 855-5488. If the party
sending the notice does not receive a telecopy receipt from DTC confirming that

                  6. It is understood that if the Security holders shall at any
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.



<PAGE>   5

                  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 period. Notices to DTC
pursuant to this Paragraph by telecopy shall be directed to DTC's Put Bond Unit

telephone (212) 855-5230. Notices to DTC pursuant to this Paragraph, by mail or

notices shall be confirmed by telephoning (212) 855-4550. Notices to DTC,
pursuant to this Paragraph, by mail or by any other means, shall be sent to:

Absent any other arrangements between Issuer or Agent and DTC, such funds shall

registered assigns, in same-day funds no later than 2:30 p.m. (Eastern Time) on

<PAGE>   7
(212) 855-4777. If the party sending the report does not receive a telecopy
receipt from DTC confirming that the notice has been received, such party shall
telephone (212) 855-4590.

                  16. DTC may direct Issuer or Agent to use any other number or
address as the number or address to which notices or payments of interest or
principal may be sent.

                  17. In the event of a redemption, acceleration, or any other
similar transaction (e.g., tender made and accepted in response to Issuer's or
Agent's invitation) necessitating a reduction in the aggregate principal amount
of Securities outstanding or an advance refunding of part of the Securities
outstanding, DTC, in its discretion: (a) may request Issuer or Agent to issue
and authenticate a new Security certificate; or (b) may make an appropriate
notation on the Security certificate indicating the date and amount of such
reduction in principal except in the case of final maturity, in which case the
certificate will be presented to Issuer or Agent prior to payment, if required.

                  18. In the event that Issuer determines that beneficial owners
of Securities shall be able to obtain certificated Securities, Issuer or Agent
shall notify DTC of the availability of certificates. In such event, Issuer or
Agent shall issue, transfer, and exchange certificates in appropriate amounts,
as required by DTC and others.

                  19. DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities
depository with respect to the Securities at any time be giving reasonable
notice to Issuer or Agent (at which time DTC will confirm with Issuer or Agent
the aggregate principal amount of Securities outstanding). Under such
circumstances, at DTC's request Issuer and Agent shall cooperate fully with DTC
by taking appropriate action to make available one or more separate certificates
evidencing Securities to any Participant having Securities credited to its DTC
accounts.

                  20. Nothing herein shall be deemed to require Agent to advance
funds on behalf of Issuer.

                  21. This Letter of Representations may be executed in any
number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an
original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the
same instrument.

                  22. This Letter of Representations shall be governed by, and
construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving
effect to principles of conflicts of law.

                  23. The sender of each notice delivered to DTC pursuant to
this Letter of Representations is responsible for confirming that such notice
was properly received by DTC.

                  24. Issuer recognizes that DTC does not in any way undertake
to, and shall not have any responsibility to, monitor or ascertain the
compliance of any transactions in the Securities with the following, as amended
from time to time: (a) any exemptions from registration under the Securities Act
of 1933; (b) the Investment Company Act of 1940; (c) the Employee Retirement

any self-regulatory organizations (as defined under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934); or (f) any other local, state, or federal laws or regulations
thereunder.

                  25. Issuer hereby authorizes DTC to provide to Agent listings
of Participants' holdings, known as Securities Position Listings ("SPLs") with
respect to the Securities from time to time at the request of the Agent. DTC
charges a fee for such SPLs. This authorization, unless revoked by Issuer, shall
continue with respect to the Securities while any Securities are on deposit at
DTC, until and unless Agent shall no longer be acting. In such event, Issuer
shall provide DTC with similar evidence, satisfactory to DTC, of the
authorization of any successor thereto so to act. Requests for SPLs shall be
sent by telecopy to the Proxy Unit of DTC's Reorganization Department at (212)
855-5181 or (212) 855-5182. Receipt of such requests shall be confirmed by
telephoning (212) 855-5202. Requests for SPLs, sent by mail or by any other
means, shall be directed to the address indicated in Paragraph 3.

                  26. Issuer and Agent shall comply with the applicable
requirements stated in DTC's Operational Arrangements, as they may be amended
from time to time. DTC's Operational Arrangements are posted on DTC's website at
