A Notice of Guaranteed Delivery relating to the Securities which is to be used to accept the Offer if certificates for Securities are not immediately available or time will not permit all required documents to reach the Paying Agent prior to midnight, New York City time, on November 17, 2008, or if the procedure for book-entry transfer cannot be completed on a timely basis;

 

  4.
