The enclosed “Instructions to Registered Holder from Beneficial Owner” form contains an authorization by you, as the beneficial owner of Original Notes, for us to make these acknowledgements, representations and warranties on your behalf.

Any person who is an affiliate of the Companies, or is participating in the Exchange Offer for the purpose of distributing the Exchange Notes, must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with a resale transaction of the Exchange Notes acquired by such person and such person cannot rely on the position of the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission enunciated in its series of interpretative no-action letters with respect to exchange offers.

We urge you to read the enclosed Prospectus and Letter of Transmittal in conjunction with the Exchange Offer carefully before instructing us to tender your Original Notes. If you wish to tender any or all of the Original Notes held by us for your account, please so instruct us by completing, executing, detaching, and returning to us the instruction form attached hereto.
