practicable, shall give notice of such change to the Broker-Dealer not later
than the earlier of 9:15 a.m. on the new Auction Date and 9:15 a.m. on the old

Person other than the Broker-Dealer, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee,
provided that the Auction Agent reserves the right to disclose any such
information if it is advised by its counsel that its failure to do so would be
unlawful or would expose the Auction Agent to liability, loss, claim or damage
for which the Auction Agent has not previously received indemnity reasonably
satisfactory to it. The Auction Agent shall notify the Broker-Dealer, the Issuer
and the Indenture Trustee promptly upon receipt of any request or demand to
disclose such information and shall cooperate with any party seeking a
protective order or similar relief.

                              SETTLEMENT PROCEDURES

        If not otherwise defined below, capitalized terms used herein shall have

        (a)     On each Auction Date, not later than 3:00 p.m., the Auction

                (i)     the Auction Note Interest Rate fixed for the next
Interest Period;

                (ii)    whether there were Sufficient Bids in such Auction;

                (iii)   if such Broker-Dealer (a "Seller's Broker-Dealer")
submitted Bids or Sell Orders on behalf of an Existing Owner, whether such Bid
or Sell Order was accepted or rejected, in whole or in part, and the principal
amount of Auction Rate Notes, if any, to be purchased or sold by such Existing
Owner;

                (iv)    if such Broker-Dealer (a "Buyer's Broker-Dealer")
submitted a Bid on behalf of a Potential Owner, whether such Bid was accepted or
rejected, in whole or in part, and the principal amount of Auction Rate Notes,
if any, to be purchased by such Potential Owner;

                (v)     if the aggregate amount of Auction Rate Notes to be sold
by all Existing Owners on whose behalf such Seller's Broker-Dealer submitted
Bids or Sell Orders exceeds the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Notes
to be purchased by all Potential Owners on whose behalf such Buyer's
Broker-Dealer submitted a Bid, the name or names of one or more Buyer's
Broker-Dealers (and the name of the Participant, if any, of each such Buyer's
Broker-Dealer) acting for one or more purchasers of such excess principal amount
of Auction Rate Notes and the principal amount of Auction Rate Notes to be
purchased from one or more Existing Owners on whose behalf such Seller's
Broker-Dealer acted by one or more Potential Owners on whose behalf each of such
Buyer's Broker-Dealers acted;

                (vi)    if the principal amount of Auction Rate Notes to be

Existing Owners on whose behalf such Seller's Broker-Dealer submitted a Bid or a
Sell Order, the name or names of one or more Seller's Broker-Dealers (and the
name of the Participant, if any, of each such Seller's Broker-Dealer) acting for

behalf such Buyer's Broker-Dealer acted by one or more Existing Owners on whose

                (vii)   the Auction Date for the next succeeding Auction.

        (b)     On each Auction Date, each Broker-Dealer that submitted an Order
on behalf of any Existing Owner or Potential Owner shall:

                (i)     advise each Existing Owner and Potential Owner on whose
behalf such Broker-Dealer submitted a Bid or Sell Order in the Auction on such
Auction Date whether such Bid or Sell Order was accepted or rejected, in whole
or in part;

                (ii)    in the case of a Broker-Dealer that is a Buyer's
Broker-Dealer, advise each Potential Owner on whose behalf such Buyer's
Broker-Dealer submitted a Bid that was accepted, in whole or in part, to
instruct such Potential Owner's Participant to pay to such Buyer's Broker-Dealer
(or its Participant) through the Securities Depository the amount necessary to
purchase the principal amount of Auction Rate Notes to be purchased pursuant to
such Bid against receipt of such Auction Rate Notes;

                (iii)   in the case of a Broker-Dealer that is a Seller's
Broker-Dealer, instruct each Existing Owner on whose behalf such Seller's
Broker-Dealer submitted a Sell Order that was accepted, in whole or in part, or
a Bid that was accepted, in whole or in part, to instruct such Existing Owner's
Participant to deliver to such Seller's Broker-Dealer (or its Participant)
through the Securities Depository the principal amount of Auction Rate Notes to
be sold pursuant to such Order against payment therefor;

                (iv)    advise each Existing Owner on whose behalf such
Broker-Dealer submitted an Order and each Potential Owner on whose behalf such
Broker-Dealer submitted a Bid of the Auction Note Interest Rate for the next
Interest Period;

                (v)     advise each Existing Owner on whose behalf such
Broker-Dealer submitted an Order of the next Auction Date; and

                (vi)    advise each Potential Owner on whose behalf such
Broker-Dealer submitted a Bid that was accepted, in whole or in part, of the
next Auction Date.

        (c)     On the basis of the information provided to it pursuant to
paragraph (a) above, each Broker-Dealer that submitted a Bid or Sell Order in an
Auction is required to allocate any funds received by it in connection with such
Auction pursuant to paragraph (b)(ii) above, and any Auction Rate Notes received
by it in connection with such Auction pursuant to paragraph (b)(iii) above among
the Potential Owners, if any, on whose behalf such Broker-Dealer submitted Bids,
the Existing Owners, if any, on whose behalf such Broker-Dealer submitted Bids
or Sell Orders in such Auction, and any Broker-Dealers identified to it by the
Auction Agent following such Auction pursuant to paragraph (a)(v) or (a)(vi)
above.

                                       A-2

<PAGE>

        (d)     On each Auction Date:

                (i)     each Potential Owner and Existing Owner with an Order in
the Auction on such Auction Date shall instruct its Participant as provided in
(b)(ii) or (b)(iii) above, as the case may be;

                (ii)    each Seller's Broker-Dealer that is not a Participant of
the Securities Depository shall instruct its Participant (A) pay through the
Securities Depository to the Participant of the Existing Holder delivering
Auction Rate Notes to such Broker-Dealer following such Auction pursuant to
paragraph (b)(ii) above the amount necessary to purchase such Auction Rate Notes
against receipt of such Auction Rate Notes and (B) deliver such Auction Rate
Notes through the Securities Depository to a Buyer's Broker-Dealer (or its
Participant) identified to such Seller's Broker-Dealer pursuant to (a)(v) above
against payment therefor; and

                (iii)   each Buyer's Broker-Dealer that is not a Participant of
the Securities Depository shall instruct its Participant to pay through the
Securities Depository to a Seller's Broker-Dealer (or its Participant)
identified following such Auction pursuant to (a)(vi) above the amount necessary
to purchase Auction Rate Notes to be purchased pursuant to (b)(ii) above against
receipt of such Auction Rate Notes.

        (e)     On the Business Day following each Auction Date:

                (i)     each Participant for a Bidder in the Auction on such
Auction Date referred to in (d)(i) above shall instruct the Securities
Depository to execute the transactions described under (b)(ii) or (b)(iii) above
for such Auction, and the Securities Depository shall execute such transactions;

                (ii)    each Seller's Broker-Dealer or its Participant shall
instruct the Securities Depository to execute the transactions described in
(d)(ii) above for such Auction, and the Securities Depository shall execute such
transactions; and

                (iii)   each Buyer's Broker-Dealer or its Participant shall
instruct the Securities Depository to execute the transactions described in
(d)(iii) above for such Auction, and the Securities Depository shall execute
such transactions.

        (f)     If an Existing Owner selling Auction Rate Notes in an Auction
fails to deliver such Auction Rate Notes (by authorized book-entry), a
Broker-Dealer may deliver to the Potential Owner on behalf of which it submitted
a Bid that was accepted a principal amount of Auction Rate Notes that is less
than the principal amount of Auction Rate Notes that otherwise was to be
purchased by such Potential Owner. In such event, the principal amount of
Auction Rate Notes to be so delivered shall be determined solely by such
Broker-Dealer. Delivery of such lesser principal amount of Auction Rate Notes
shall constitute good delivery. Notwithstanding the foregoing terms of this
paragraph (f), any delivery or nondelivery of Auction Rate Notes that shall
represent any departure from the results of an Auction, as

                                       A-3

<PAGE>

determined by the Auction Agent, shall be of no effect unless and until the
Auction Agent shall have been notified of such delivery or nondelivery in
accordance with the provisions of the Auction Agent Agreement and the
Broker-Dealer Agreements. Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Auction Agent
shall have any responsibility or liability with respect to the failure of a
Potential Owner, Existing Owner or their respective Broker-Dealer or Participant
to take delivery of or deliver, as the case may be, the principal amount of
Auction Rate Notes or to pay for the Auction Rate Notes purchased or sold
pursuant to an Auction or otherwise.
