Calculation Agent shall calculate the Redemption Amount for the Notes. The
Redemption Amount is the amount equal to the product of (A) the sum of the
principal amount of the Notes plus the Interest Amount times (B) the Conversion Rate, divided by the Settlement Rate.

 

(i)                                     The “Valuation
Date” is April 5, 2006, or if such day is not a Valuation Business Day,

(ii)                                  The “Interest Amount”
is the product of the principal amount of the Notes times

a.               The “Day Count
Fraction” is computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of
days elapsed.

 

(iii)                               The “Conversion Rate” is

in two Business Days reported by the Banco Central do Brasil on SISBACEN Data
System under transaction code PTAX-800 (“Consulta de Cambio” or Exchange Rate
Inquiry), Option 5 (“Cotacoes para

 

2

 

Contabilidade” or Rates for Accounting Purposes), which appears on
Reuters Screen BRFR Page under the caption “Dolar PTAX” at approximately
6:30 pm Sao Paolo time on the Valuation Date.

 

(b)                                 Upon the occurrence of a
Disruption Event with respect to the Reference Currency on any day during the
term of the Notes, the Calculation Agent shall determine the Redemption Amount
payable on the Maturity Date in good faith and in a commercially reasonable
manner.

 

(i)                                     A “Disruption
Event” means any of the following events (other than a Price Source
Unavailability Event), as determined in good faith by the Calculation Agent:

Event) with respect to the Reference Currency that
prevents or makes impossible (x) the Calculation Agent’s ability to calculate
the Redemption Amount, (y) the Company’s fulfillment of its obligations under
the notes, or (z) the ability of the Company or any of its affiliates through
which it hedges its position under the Notes to hedge such position or to
unwind all or a material portion of such
hedge.

 

(ii)                                  The “Maturity Date”

Currency, or the occurrence of an event

by the Calculation Agent at approximately 10:00 a.m., New York City time,
on the Valuation Business Day next succeeding the Valuation Date for the
purchase or sale for deposits in the Reference Currency by the Reference
Banks.  If

 

3

 

fewer than
three Reference Banks provide spot quotations then the Settlement Rate will be
determined by the Calculation Agent in good faith and in a commercially
reasonable manner.

 

a.               The “Reference
Banks” means the New York offices of three leading banks engaged in the

other Event of Default, if any, under the Credit Agreement, and shall not be,
and shall not be deemed to be, a course of action with respect thereto upon
which the Borrower may rely in the future, and the Borrower hereby expressly
waives any claim to such effect.
