The amount of interest for each day
the Notes due 2009 are outstanding
(the daily interest amount) will
be calculated by dividing the
interest rate in effect for that
day by 360 and multiplying the
result by the principal amount of
the Notes due 2009. The amount of
interest to be paid on the Notes
due 2009 for each interest period
will be calculated by adding the
daily interest amounts for each day
in the interest period. |
||
All percentages resulting from
these calculations will be rounded,
if necessary, to the nearest one
hundred thousandth of a percentage
point, with five one millionths of
a percentage point rounded upwards
(e.g., 9.876545% (or .09876545)
being rounded to 9.87655% (or .0987655)) and all dollar amounts
used in or resulting from such
calculations will be rounded to the
nearest cent (with one half cent
being rounded upwards). |
||
Except as described below for the
first interest period, on each
interest payment date, interest
will be paid for the period
commencing on and including the
immediately preceding interest
payment date and ending on and
including the next day preceding
that interest payment date. This
period is referred to as an
interest period. The first
interest period will begin on and
include July 14, 2006 and will end
on but exclude October 16, 2006. |
||

period beginning on the second

provided, LIBOR for the interest
period will be the arithmetic mean
of those quotations. If fewer than
two quotations are so provided, the

City, as selected by the

percentage per annum), as of
approximately 11:00 a.m. New York

fewer than two rates are so
provided, then LIBOR for the
interest period will be LIBOR in
effect with respect to the
immediately preceding interest
period. |
||

to an interest period will be the
