   will be required to produce  evidence satisfactory to the Information  and
   Tabulation Agent as to its status as a Noteholder and that it is a  person

   Notice of Adjourned  Meeting, the  Memorandum and  the Trust  Deed can  be

   The attention of Noteholders is  particularly drawn to the procedures  for
   voting, quorum and other requirements  for the passing of the  Appointment
   Extraordinary Resolution and the Amendment Extraordinary Resolution at the
   Adjourned Meeting  held following  adjournment  of the  Original  Meeting,
   which are set out  at “—Voting and Quorum”  below.  Having regard to  such
   requirements, the  Noteholders are  strongly urged  either to  attend  the
   Adjourned Meeting or  to take  steps to  be represented  at the  Adjourned
   Meeting as soon as possible.

   Voting and Quorum

   The provisions governing  the convening and  holding of a  meeting of  the
   Noteholders are set out in  the Trust Deed, a  copy of which is  available
   for inspection by the Noteholders as referred to above.

   The quorum required  for the  Appointment Extraordinary  Resolution to  be
   considered at the Adjourned  Meeting is one  or more Noteholders  actually
   present at the Adjourned  Meeting. The quorum  required for the  Amendment
   Extraordinary Resolution to be considered at the Adjourned Meeting is  one
   or more  Noteholders  or  agents  representing  or  holding  one-third  in
   aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding provided that  if
   the Noteholders approve  the Appointment Extraordinary  Resolution but  do
   not approve the Amendment  Extraordinary Resolution, the Appointment  will
   be effected but  if the  Noteholders approve  the Amendment  Extraordinary
   Resolution but  do not  approve the  Appointment Extraordinary  Resolution
   neither the Appointment nor the Amendments will be effected.

   To be passed in relation to the Notes, the Extraordinary Resolutions  must
   be passed at the  Adjourned Meeting duly convened  and held in  accordance
   with the  provisions  of  Schedule  3  (Provisions  for  Meetings  of  the
   Noteholders)  of  the  Trust  Deed  by   a  majority  of  not  less   than
   three-quarters of the votes cast.

   The Noteholders should note these quorum requirements and should be  aware
   that, if the  Noteholders either present  or appropriately represented  at
   the  Adjourned  Meeting  are  insufficient  to  form  a  quorum  for   the
   Extraordinary  Resolutions,  such  Extraordinary  Resolutions  cannot   be
   formally considered thereat.

   In accordance with paragraph 17 of Schedule 3 (Provisions for Meetings  of
   Noteholders) to the Trust Deed, at any meeting (i) in respect of a vote on
   a show of hands,  every person entitled  to vote shall  have one vote  and
   (ii) in respect of a vote on  a poll, every person entitled to vote  shall
   have one vote in  respect of each U.S.$1,000  in principal amount of  each
   Note so  held  or owned  or  in  respect of  which  he  is a  proxy  or  a
   representative. Without  prejudice  to  the obligations  of  proxies,  any
   persons entitled to more than one vote need not use all his votes or  cast
   all the votes to which he is entitled in the same way.

   If the Extraordinary Resolutions are duly passed at the Adjourned  Meeting
   duly  convened  and  held   in  accordance  with   the  Trust  Deed,   the
   Extraordinary Resolutions shall be binding on all the Noteholders, whether
   or not present at the Adjourned Meeting.

   This Notice  of  Adjourned  Meeting and  any  non-contractual  obligations
   arising out of, or in connection with, it shall be governed by, and  shall
   be construed in accordance with, English law.
