                           DEBENTURE OWNERSHIP GUIDE

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

INDIVIDUAL

The debenture is to be registered in an individual's name only. You may not
list beneficiaries for this ownership.

JOINT TENANTS

Joint Tenancy with Right of Survivorship identifies two or more persons as
owners of the debenture. Upon the death of one of the owners, ownership
automatically passes to the surviving tenant(s). You may not list beneficiaries
for this ownership.

TENANTS IN COMMON

Tenants in Common identifies two or more persons as owners of the debenture.
When a debenture is held by tenants in common, upon the death of one co-tenant,
ownership of the debenture will be held by the surviving co-tenant(s) and by
the heirs of the deceased co-tenant. All parties must agree to the transfer or
sale of debentures held by tenants in common. You may not list beneficiaries
for this ownership.

INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNT

Individual Retirement Account ("IRA") holders may make debenture purchases from
their IRA through a pre-arranged "trustee-to-trustee" transfer. A debenture may
only be held in a self-directed IRA. Please contact the Stock Sales Center if
you have any questions about your IRA account or to obtain a list of local
brokers who will open a self-directed IRA, or check with your broker.

UNIFORM GIFT TO MINORS/UNIFORM TRANSFERS TO MINORS

For Texas residents and residents of many states, debentures may be held in the
name of a custodian for the benefit of a minor under the Uniform Transfers to
Minors Act. For residents of most other states, a debenture may be held in a
similar type of ownership under the Uniform Gift to Minors Act of the
individual states. For either ownership, the minor is the actual owner of the
debenture with the adult custodian being responsible for the investment until
the minor reaches legal age.

Instructions: If you are a Texas resident and wish to register a debenture in
this ownership, check "Uniform Transfers to Minors." For other states, see your
legal advisor if you are unsure about the correct registration of your
debenture.

On the first "NAME" line, print the first name, middle initial and last name of
the custodian, with the abbreviation "CUST" after the name. Print the first
name, middle initial and last name of the minor on the second "NAME line. Only
one custodian and one minor may be designated.

CORPORATION/PARTNERSHIPS

Corporations/Partnerships may purchase debentures. Please provide the
Corporation/Partnership's legal name and Tax I.D. number.

FIDUCIARIES:

Generally, fiduciary relationships (such as Conservatorship, Legal Trust,
Guardianship, etc.) are established under a form of a trust agreement or are
pursuant to a court order. Without a legal document establishing a fiduciary
relationship, your debenture may not be registered in a fiduciary capacity.

Instructions: On the first "NAME" line, print the first name, middle initial
and last name of the fiduciary if the fiduciary is an individual. If the
fiduciary is a corporation, list the corporate title on the first "NAME" line.
Following the name, print the fiduciary "title" such as trustee, executor,
personal representative, etc.

   6

On the second "NAME" line, print either the name of the maker, donor or
testator OR the name of the beneficiary. Following the name, indicate the type
of legal document establishing the fiduciary relationship (agreement, court
order, etc.). In the blank after "Under Agreement Dated," fill in the date of
the document governing the relationship. The date of the document need not be
provided for a trust created by a will.

An example of fiduciary ownership of a debenture in the case of a trust is:
John D. Smith, Trustee for Thomas A. Smith Under Agreement Dated 06/09/87.
