     1. Delivery of this Notice of Guaranteed Delivery. A properly completed and
duly executed copy of this Notice of Guaranteed Delivery and any other
documents required by this Notice of Guaranteed Delivery must be received by
the Exchange Agent at its address set forth herein prior to the Expiration
Date. The method of delivery of this Notice of Guaranteed Delivery and any
other required documents to the Exchange Agent is at the election and risk of
the holder, and the delivery will be deemed made only when actually received
by the Exchange Agent. If delivery is by mail, registered mail with return
receipt requested, properly insured, is recommended. Instead of delivery by
mail, it is recommended that the holder use an overnight or hand delivery
service. Facsimile transmission is permissible, provided, however, that
receipt is confirmed by telephone and an original is delivered by guaranteed
overnight courier. In all cases, sufficient time should be allowed to assure
timely delivery. For a description of the guaranteed delivery procedure, see
the section set forth in the Prospectus entitled "The Exchange Offer --
Guaranteed Delivery Procedure" and Instruction 1 of the Letter of Transmittal.

Guaranteed Delivery is signed by the registered holder(s) of the tendered Old
Notes referred to herein, the signature must correspond with the name(s)
written on the face of the tendered Old Notes without alteration or any change
whatsoever.

     If this Notice of Guaranteed Delivery is signed by a person other than
the registered holder(s) of any tendered Old Notes listed, this Notice of
Guaranteed Delivery must be accompanied by appropriate bond powers, signed as
the name of the registered holder(s) appears on the tendered Old Notes.

     If this Notice of Guaranteed Delivery is signed by a trustee, executor,
administrator, guardian, attorney-in-fact, officer of a corporation, or other
person acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, such person should so
indicate when signing, and, unless waived by the Company, proper evidence
satisfactory to the Company of their authority so to act must be submitted.

     3. Requests for Assistance or Additional Copies. Questions and requests for
assistance and requests for additional copies of the Prospectus may be
directed to the Exchange Agent at the address specified in the Prospectus.
Holders also may contact their broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company,
