Under the terms of the First Supplemental Indenture, during the period
beginning January 9, 2007 and ending 5:30 p.m., May 31, 2007, any failure by

event of default, and the Notes will accrue an additional 6.75% per annum in
special interest from and after January 9, 2007 to the maturity date of the
Notes, unless the Notes are earlier repurchased or converted. Payments of the

same manner as regularly scheduled payments of interest to Holders entitled to
such regularly scheduled payments of interest.
