                    INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THE RATINGS OF
                       THE NOTES AND THE FUNDING AGREEMENT

It is  anticipated  that,  as of March 15, 2005,  both the Notes and the Funding
Agreement will be rated by the indicated rating agencies as follows:

                  Standard & Poor's:  AA-            Moody's: AA3

The Moody's rating also extends to the Program under which the Notes are issued.

                             ADDITIONAL RISK FACTORS

         THE ACCOMPANYING PROSPECTUS AND THIS PRICING SUPPLEMENT DO NOT DESCRIBE
ALL OF THE RISKS AND OTHER  RAMIFICATIONS  OF AN  INVESTMENT  IN THE  NOTES.  AN
INVESTMENT  IN  NOTES  LINKED  TO  THE  CONSUMER  PRICE  INDEX  ("CPI")  ENTAILS
SIGNIFICANT RISKS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH AN INVESTMENT IN A CONVENTIONAL FIXED RATE
OR FLOATING RATE DEBT SECURITY. INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN FINANCIAL AND
LEGAL  ADVISORS ABOUT THE RISKS  ASSOCIATED  WITH AN INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES AND
THE  SUITABILITY  OF  INVESTING  IN THE  NOTES  IN  LIGHT  OF  THEIR  PARTICULAR
CIRCUMSTANCES,  AND POSSIBLE  SCENARIOS  FOR  ECONOMIC,  INTEREST RATE AND OTHER
FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT THEIR INVESTMENT.

         YOUR INTEREST RATE IS BASED ON THE CPI.

         Your   interest   payments   will  be   affected   by  changes  in  the
non-seasonally adjusted U.S. City Average All Items Consumer Price Index for All
Urban  Consumers,  published  monthly  by the  Bureau of Labor  Statistics  (the
"CPI").  Such changes may be  significant.  Changes in the CPI are a function of
the  changes in  specified  consumer  prices  over time,  which  result from the
interaction of many factors over which we have no control.

         HISTORICAL CHANGES TO THE CPI ARE NOT NECESSARILY  INDICATIVE OF FUTURE
CHANGES.

         Movements in the CPI that have occurred in the past are not necessarily
indicative  of changes that may occur in the future,  which may be WIDER or MORE
CONFINED than those that have occurred historically. The CPI is a measure of the
average  levels in consumer  prices over time in a fixed market  basket of goods
and services.  In  calculating  the CPI,  price levels for the various items are
averaged  together with weights that represent their relative  importance in the
spending of urban  households in the United  States.  The contents of the market
basket of goods and services and the weights  assigned to the various  items are
updated  periodically  to take into  account  changes  in  consumer  expenditure
patterns.  Investors should not rely on any historical  changes or trends in the
CPI as an indicator of future changes in the CPI.

                                       3


         DURING  PERIODS  OF LOW  INFLATION  OR  DEFLATION,  THE  INTEREST  RATE
APPLICABLE TO THE NOTES COULD BE AS LOW AS 0.00%.

         During periods of reduced inflation,  the amount of interest payable on
the notes will decrease.  In a period of deflation,  the CPI Adjustment Rate (as
defined  below) would be negative.  This could result in an interest  rate below
the Spread and as low as 0.00%.

         THE INTEREST  RATE ON THE NOTES MAY BE LESS THAN THE RATE ON COMPARABLE
FIXED OR FLOATING RATE DEBT SECURITIES.

          Because the  long-term  trend in CPI changes  has been  positive,  the
initial  interest  rate may be below what would be paid, as of a current date on
comparable debt  securities  with a fixed or floating rate and similar  maturity
and credit quality to that of the notes.  Even though the long-term trend in CPI
changes has been  positive,  at any future date,  the interest rate on the notes
may be  below  what  we  would  expect  to  pay as of  such  date  if we  issued
non-callable  senior debt  securities  with a fixed or floating rate and similar
maturity to that of the notes.

         CHANGES IN THE CPI MAY NOT  CORRELATE  WITH  CHANGES IN  INTEREST  RATE
INDICES.

         Changes  in the CPI may bear  little or no  relationship  to changes in
interest rate indices  (such as those  described in the  Prospectus  Supplement)
that may be applicable to other floating rate notes. As a result,  your interest
rate may be below the  interest  rates  payable  on other  otherwise  comparable
floating  rate  debt  securities.  In  addition,  the  calculation  of  the  CPI
Adjustment  Rate CPI  incorporates  an  approximate  four-month  lag, which will
affect the amount of interest payable on the notes and may have an impact on the
trading prices of the notes,  particularly  in periods of significant  and rapid
changes in the CPI.

         THE CPI ITSELF AND THE WAY THE  BUREAU OF LABOR  STATISTICS  CALCULATES
THE CPI MAY CHANGE IN THE FUTURE.

         There can be no assurance that the Bureau of Labor  Statistics will not
change the method by which it  calculates  the CPI. In addition,  changes in the
way the CPI is  calculated  could  reduce  the  level of the CPI and  lower  the
interest payment with respect to the notes. Accordingly, the amount of interest,
if any,  payable  on the notes,  and  therefore  the value of the notes,  may be
significantly  reduced. If the CPI is substantially  altered, a substitute index
may be employed to  calculate  the interest  payable on the notes,  as described
below. That substitution may adversely affect the value of the notes.

                            INTEREST RATE ATTACHMENT

BASE RATE:

         The interest rate basis for the notes and the funding  agreement is the
CPI Adjustment Rate (as defined below) for each interest  payment period,  based
on the percentage  change in the  non-seasonally  adjusted U.S. City Average All
Items  Consumer  Price  Index for All Urban  Consumers  (the  "CPI"),  published
monthly  by the  Bureau  of Labor  Statistics  of the U.S.  Department  of Labor
("BLS"),  and  calculated  as  described  in this  pricing  supplement.  The CPI
Adjustment  Rate may be a positive  or  negative  rate in any  interest  payment
period.  The CPI is a measure of the average levels in consumer prices over time
for a fixed  market  basket of goods and  services,  including  food,  clothing,
shelter, fuels,  transportation,  charges for doctors and dentists services, and
drugs. In calculating the index, price levels for the various items are averaged
together with weights that represent  their  importance in the spending of urban
households in the United States.  The contents of the market basket of goods and
services and the weights assigned to the various items are updated  periodically
by the BLS to take into account changes in consumer  expenditure  patterns.  The
CPI is expressed in relative terms in relation to a time base  reference  period
for which the level is set at 100.0.  The base reference period for the Notes is
the 1982-1984 average.

HISTORICAL DATA ON THE CONSUMER PRICE INDEX

The table below sets forth the CPI as published by the BLS of the months listed.
Historical  fluctuations  in the CPI are not  necessarily  indicative  of future
fluctuations,  which may be  greater  or less  than  those  that  have  occurred
historically.

COMPUTATION OF INTEREST:

CALCULATION  OF CPI ADJUSTMENT  RATE: The CPI Adjustment  Rate for each Interest
Reset Period is determined as of each Interest Rate Determination Date using the
following formula:

        (CPI(t)-CPI(t)-(12))/CPI(t)-(12)  where:

        CPI(t): Current Index Level of CPI (as defined below), as published on
                Bloomberg CPURNSA; and

        CPI(t)-(12): Index Level of CPI for the month 12 months prior to CPI(t).

All  percentages  resulting from any calculation on the notes will be rounded to
the nearest one hundredth of a percentage point, with five  one-thousandths of a
percentage point rounded upwards,  e.g.,  9.876% (or .09876) would be rounded to
9.88% (or .0988).

CALCULATION OF INTEREST RATE: The CPI Adjustment  Rate determined on an Interest
Rate  Determination Date is used to calculate the interest rate effective on the
next Interest Reset Date. That interest rate is equal to the CPI Adjustment Rate
plus the Spread indicated earlier in this pricing supplement.

                                       5


CPI:  CPI(t) for each  Interest  Payment Date is the CPI for the third  calendar
month prior to the applicable Interest Rate Determination Date, as published and
reported  in  the  calendar  month  immediately  prior  to  such  Interest  Rate
Determination  Date. For example,  if notes were outstanding for the period from
and including November 15, 2004 to but excluding December 15, 2004, CPI(t) would
be the CPI for August 2004,  which was 189.5,  and CPI(t)-(12)  would be the CPI
for August 2003,  which was 184.6.  The CPI for August 2004 was published by BLS
and reported on Bloomberg CPURNSA in September 2004, and the CPI for August 2003
was published and reported in September 2003.

         If the CPI is not reported on Bloomberg  CPURNSA for a particular month
by 3:00 PM on an  Interest  Rate  Determination  Date,  but has  otherwise  been
published by the BLS, the Calculation  Agent will determine the CPI as published
by the BLS for such  month  using such  other  source as on its face,  and after
consultation  with us,  appears to accurately  set forth the CPI as published by
the BLS.  If the CPI has not been  discontinued  but has not  been  reported  on
Bloomberg  CPURNSA or published  by BLS for a particular  month by 3:00 PM on an
Interest  Rate  Determination  Date,  CPI for such date shall be the CPI for the
immediately preceding Interest Rate Determination Date.

         In calculating  CPI(t) and CPI(t)-(12)  the Calculation  Agent will use
the most  recently  available  value  of the CPI for any  month,  determined  as
described above on the applicable Interest Rate Determination Date, even if such
value has been  adjusted  from a prior  reported  value for the relevant  month.
However,  if a value of CPI(t) and CPI(t)-(12) used by the Calculation  Agent on
any Interest Rate Determination Date to determine the interest rate on the notes
(an "Initial CPI") is  subsequently  revised by the BLS, the  Calculation  Agent
will continue to use the Initial CPI, and the interest rate  determined will not
be  revised.  If the CPI is rebased  to a  different  year or  period,  the base
reference  period  for the notes will  continue  to be the  1982-1984  reference
period as long as the 1982-1984 CPI continues to be published.

         If, while the notes are outstanding,  the CPI is discontinued or, if in
the opinion of the BLS, as evidenced by a public release,  and if concurred with
by us, substantially altered, the applicable substitute index for the notes will
be that chosen by the Secretary of the Treasury for the Department of Treasury's
Inflation-Linked Treasuries as described at 62 Federal Register 846-874 (January
6, 1997). If no such securities are  outstanding,  the substitute  index for the
notes  will  be  determined  by  the  Calculation  Agent  as  directed  by us in
accordance with general market practice at the time, provided that the procedure
for determining the resulting  interest rate is  administratively  acceptable to
the Calculation Agent.
