  We request instructions as to whether you wish to have us tender for
exchange on your behalf any or all of such Series A Notes held by us for your
account, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the
Exchange Offer.

  Your attention is directed to the following:

  1.  The Exchange Offer and withdrawal rights will expire at 5:00 P.M., New

  The Exchange Offer is being made solely by the Prospectus and the related
Letter of Transmittal and is being made to all Eligible Holders of Series A
Notes. The Company is not aware of any state where the making of the Exchange
Offer is prohibited by administrative or judicial action pursuant to any valid
state statute. If the Company becomes aware of any valid state statute
prohibiting the making of the Exchange Offer or the acceptance of Series A
Notes tendered for exchange pursuant thereto, the Company will make a good
faith effort to comply with any such state statute. If, after such good faith
effort, the Company cannot comply with such state statute, the Exchange Offer
will not be made to, nor will tenders be accepted from or on behalf of, the
holders of Series A Notes in such state. In any jurisdiction where the
securities, blue sky or other laws require the Exchange Offer to be made by a
licensed broker or dealer, the Exchange Offer shall be deemed to be made on
behalf of the Company by one or more registered brokers or dealers that are
licensed under the laws of such jurisdiction.

  If you wish to have us tender any or all of the Series A Notes held by us
for your account, please instruct us by completing, executing and returning to
us the instruction form contained in this letter. If you authorize a tender
for exchange of your Series A Notes, the entire aggregate principal amount of
such Series A Notes will be tendered for exchange unless otherwise specified
in such instruction form. Your instructions should be forwarded to us in ample
time to permit us to submit a tender on your behalf prior to the expiration of
the Exchange Offer.
