tenders of such Outstanding Notes are to be made by book-entry transfer to an
account maintained by the exchange agent at the Depository Trust Company ("DTC"
or the "Book-Entry Transfer Facility") pursuant to the procedures set forth in
the prospectus under the heading "The Exchange Offer -- Book-Entry Transfer" or
(iii) tender of such notes is to be made by means of DTC's Automated Tender
Offer Program ("ATOP"), subject to the terms and procedures of that system. If
delivery is made through ATOP, the holder must transmit an agent's message to
the exchange account at DTC. The term "agent's message" means a message,
transmitted to DTC and received by the exchange agent and forming a part of a
book-entry transfer, that states that DTC has received an express
acknowledgement that the holder agrees to be bound by the Letter of Transmittal
and that the Company may enforce the Letter of Transmittal against the holder.

your Outstanding Notes but (i) your Outstanding Notes are currently unavailable,
