     the Pledgor in and to the Euroclear Entitlements, as security for the
     discharge and payment of the Secured Liabilities.

     Article 5 of Royal Decree N degrees 62.

     accordance with the Agreement shall continue and remain in effect until
     expressly released by the Pledgee. Nothwithstanding the insolvency or
     liquidation or any incapacity or change in the constitution or status of
     the Pledgor or any intermediate settlement or account or any matter
     whatsoever, such pledge and the obligations of the Pledgor thereunder shall
     not in any way be discharged by reason of any matter (other than due
     performance of the obligations which the Pledgor is stated to have assumed
     hereunder) which might, but for the provisions of this sections 5.1,
     discharge the Pledgor from its obligations hereunder.

                                    4 of 11
<PAGE>
5.2  Subject to and in accordance with the provisions set out in the Master
     Agreement and/or the Confirmation, as the case may be, the Pledgee shall
     grant an express release of this pledge, without unreasonable delay upon
     demand of the Pledgor, upon the expiry of the Security Period. Following
     the irrevocable and unconditional payment or discharge by the Pledgor of
     all of the Secured Liabilities to the complete satisfaction of the Pledgee,
     the Pledgee shall give instructions to Euroclear Bank in relation to the
     Pledged Accounts as the Pledgor may reasonably request and will do so in
     accordance with Clause 12 (Termination) thereof.

5.3  All distributions and redemption proceeds in respect of the Bonds shall be
     dealt with by the Pledgee as provided in the Confirmation, and the Pledgee
     agrees that the pledge shall be released in respect of such distributions
     and redemption proceeds then held in the Pledged Accounts as necessary to
     this effect, and the Pledgee shall be, and hereby is, authorised to so
     dispose of distributions and redemption proceeds as provided in the
     Confirmation. For the avoidance of doubt, such payment or deliveries will
     be used to effectuate the payment or delivery obligations of Party B to
     Party A as per the terms of the Transaction as provided in the
     Confirmation.

5.4  If, with respect to the Transaction, the Bond Portfolio is amended pursuant
     to acceptance by Party A, either of Substitute Bond Collateral or Top up
     Bond Collateral (as such terms are defined in the Confirmation), the pledge
     shall be released with respect to the Bonds/ Euroclear Entitlements to be
     sold or transferred pursuant to such provisions. Where applicable, any
     bonds added or substituted therefor shall be deposited into the Pledged
     Securities Account, and shall be deemed to substitute the Bonds sold or
     transferred or shall be deemed added to the Bond Portfolio and in either
     case, shall constitute an integral part of the Bond Portfolio. Such
     substitution or addition shall not affect the continuity of the pledge.

5.5  The Pledgor confirms its agreement that all securities pledged pursuant to
     the Agreement shall be treated as fungible with all securities of the same
     issue on deposit with Euroclear subject to Belgian Royal Decree No. 62.

5.6  The Pledgee shall exercise its right to give instructions to Euroclear Bank
     in relation to the Pledged Accounts pursuant to Clause 6(i) and
     unilaterally terminate the Pledged Account Terms and Conditions pursuant to
     Clause 12 of the Pledged Account Terms and Conditions only in furtherance
     to the terms of this Agreement, Confirmation and Master Agreement (the
     "Transaction Documents"). For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of any
     conflict between the terms of the Clause 6(i) and Clause 12 of the Pledged
     Account Terms and Conditions, and the terms of the Transaction Documents,
     the terms of the Transaction Documents will prevail.

6.   ENFORCEMENT

Upon the designation or occurrence of an Early Termination Date under Section
6(a) of the Master Agreement where the Pledgor is the Defaulting Party, the
Pledgee shall be entitled to enforce the security and to realise any securities
or cash standing to the credit of the Pledged Accounts, as permitted by Belgian
law. In that event: (i) by way of security and solely for the purpose of
enabling the Pledgee to enforce the security and to realise any securities or
cash standing to the credit of the Pledged Accounts, as permitted by Belgian
law, the Pledgor irrevocably appoints the Pledgee as the attorney of the
Pledgor, on its behalf and in the name of the Pledgor (as the attorney may
decide) to do all acts, and execute all documents which the Pledgor could itself
execute, in relation to any of the Secured Liabilities and/or Pledged Accounts,
or in connection with any of the matters provided for in the Agreement.

           articles of association of the Pledgor;

     (iv)  the Agreement does not violate any contractual or other obligation

           its obligations under the Agreement, the Confirmation or the Master
           Agreement

     (v)   the Pledgor is the sole owner of the Bonds and of the Euroclear

           Pledgor's financial condition or its ability to perform its
           obligations under the Agreement.

           The Pledgor also represents and warrants to and undertakes with the

           continue and remain in force with reference to the facts and
           circumstances existing at the time such representation or warranty
           was made or repeated and that it shall not be superseded, replaced or
           extinguished by a representation made subsequently with regard to the
           same subject matter but with reference to facts and circumstances
           existing at a later date.
