     We are requesting that you contact your clients for whom you hold Old Bonds

     3. A Notice of Guaranteed Delivery relating to the Old Bonds which is to be

        immediately available or time will not permit all required documents to
        reach the Exchange Agent prior to the Expiration Date (as defined below)
        or if the procedure for book-entry transfer cannot be completed on a
        timely basis;

     4. A form of letter which may be sent to your clients for whose account you
        hold Old Bonds registered in your name or the name of your nominee, with

acceptances of the Exchange Offer. The Holders will not be obligated to pay or
