material respect or if a Component Index or Successor Index is in any other way
modified so that it does not, in the opinion of the Calculation Agent, fairly
represent the level of such Component Index, or Successor Index, as the case may
be, had such changes or modifications not been made, (d) adjustments to the
Threshold Level, if required in order to reflect adjustments made in a Component

obligations herein set out upon the terms and conditions hereof, including the
following, to all of which the Company agrees:

                  (a) in acting under this Agreement, the Calculation Agent is

         for or with, any of the holders of the Securities;

                  (b) unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any order,

         such duties as are set out specifically herein and any duties
         necessarily incidental thereto;

         other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities with the
         same rights as it would have had if it were not acting hereunder as
         Calculation Agent; and

                  (e) the Calculation Agent shall incur no liability hereunder
         except for loss sustained by reason of its gross negligence or willful

Agent and acceptance of such appointment by such successor Calculation Agent, as
hereinafter provided. The Calculation Agent hereunder may be removed at any time
by the filing with it of an instrument in writing signed by or on behalf of the
Company and specifying such removal and the date when it shall become effective.
Such resignation or removal shall take effect upon the appointment by the
Company, as hereinafter provided, of a successor Calculation Agent and the
acceptance of such appointment by such successor Calculation Agent. In the event
a successor Calculation Agent has not been appointed and has not accepted its
duties within 90 days of the Calculation Agent's notice of resignation, the

part of its property, or shall admit in writing its inability to pay or meet its
debts as they mature, or if a receiver or custodian of it or all or any
substantial part of its property shall be appointed, or if any public officer

execute, acknowledge and deliver to its predecessor, to the Company and to the
Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder and agreeing to be
bound by the terms hereof, and thereupon such successor Calculation Agent,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the
authority, rights, powers, trusts, immunities, duties and obligations of such
predecessor with like effect as if originally named as Calculation Agent
hereunder, and such predecessor, upon payment of its charges and disbursements
then unpaid, shall thereupon become obligated to transfer, deliver and pay over,
and such successor Calculation Agent shall be entitled to receive, all moneys,
securities and other property on deposit with or held by such predecessor, as
Calculation Agent hereunder.

                  (d) Any corporation into which the Calculation Agent hereunder
may be merged or converted or any corporation with which the Calculation Agent
may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Calculation Agent shall be a party, or any
corporation to which the Calculation Agent shall sell or otherwise transfer all

                                     ANNEX A
                                     -------

         1. The Basket and the Component Indices.

            The basket (the "Basket") shall initially be composed of the
following indices: the Dow Jones EURO STOXX 50(SM) Index, as calculated,
published and disseminated by STOXX Limited, the FTSE 100 Index(TM), as
calculated, published and disseminated by FTSE International Limited, the Nikkei
225(SM) Index, as calculated, published and disseminated by Nihon Keizai
Shimbun, Inc., and the S&P(R)/ASX 200 Index, as calculated, published and
disseminated by the Standard & Poor's Australian Index Committee (each, a
"Component Index" and, collectively, the "Component Indices").

         2. Determination of the Maturity Payment Amount.

            The Calculation Agent shall, at the request of the Trustee,
determine the amount payable on the Stated Maturity Date for each $1,000
principal amount of Securities (the "Maturity Payment Amount").

            The Maturity Payment Amount shall be the following:

            o  If the Final Basket Return is greater than or equal to zero,
               $1,000 + ($1,000 x the Upside Participation Rate x the Final
               Basket Return).

            o  If the Final Basket Return is less than zero and the Final Basket
               Level is equal to or greater than the Threshold Level, $1,000.

            o  If the Final Basket Return is less than zero and the Final Basket
               Level is less than the Threshold Level:

                           $1,000   x   Final Basket Level
                                        ------------------
                                         Threshold Level

         3. Discontinuance of the Index.

         (a) If a publisher of a Component Index discontinues publication of
such Component Index and such publisher or another entity publishes a successor
or substitute index (a "Successor Index") that the Calculation Agent determines,
in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, to be comparable to the
discontinued Component Index, then the Calculation Agent shall determine each
subsequent Closing Basket Value to be used in computing the Maturity Payment
Amount by reference to the Closing Index Level of such Successor Index on the
applicable date.

         (b) Upon any selection by the Calculation Agent of a Successor Index,
the Company shall promptly give notice to the holders of the Securities.

         (c) If a publisher of a Component Index discontinues publication of
such Component Index and the Calculation Agent determines that no Successor
Index is available at such time, or if such publisher (or the publisher of any
Successor Index to such Component Index) fails to calculate and publish a
Closing Index Level for such Component Index (or a Successor Index) on






                                                                               2


any date when it would ordinarily do so in accordance with its customary
practice, the Component Index (or Successor Index) shall be removed from the
Basket as of the close of business on the last day on which its Closing Index
Level was published by its publisher and the Weight of each remaining Component
Index (or Successor Index) shall simultaneously be increased (by adjusting the
respective Multipliers) by an amount determined by the Calculation Agent such as
to result in both (a) the relative Weights of remaining Component Indices on
such day and (b) the Closing Basket Level on such day remaining unchanged. In
addition, the Calculation Agent shall make such other adjustments to the terms
of the Securities as may be required to account for such discontinued Component
Index.

         4. Alteration of Method of Calculation.

            If at any time the method of calculating a Component Index, any
Successor Index, or the Closing Index Level thereof on any particular day, is
changed in a material respect, or if a Component Index or any Successor Index is
in any other way modified so that such index does not, in the opinion of the
Calculation Agent, fairly represent the level of such Component Index or such
Successor Index had such changes or modifications not been made, then, from and
after such time, the Calculation Agent shall, at the Close of Trading of the
Relevant Exchanges on which the securities comprising such Component Index or
such Successor Index traded on any date the Closing Index Level thereof is to be
determined, make such calculations and adjustments as, in the good faith
judgment of the Calculation Agent, may be necessary in order to arrive at a
level of a stock index comparable to such Component Index or such Successor
Index, as the case may be, as if such changes or modifications had not been
made. The Calculation Agent shall calculate the Closing Index Level of a
Component Index on any particular day and the Maturity Payment Amount with
reference to such Component Index or such Successor Index, as adjusted.

            Accordingly, if the method of calculating a Component Index or a
Successor Index is modified so that the level of such index is a fraction of
what it would have been if it had not been modified, then the Calculation Agent
shall adjust such index in order to arrive at a level of such Component Index or
such Successor Index as if it had not been modified.
