Additional Terms:

The interest rate applicable to each Interest Reset Period will equal the Federal Funds Open Rate (as defined below) plus the Spread set forth above.

The "Federal Funds Open Rate" for an Interest Determination Date will be the rate for that day under the heading "Federal Funds" and opposite the caption "Open" as such rate is displayed on the Telerate Page 5.

If on a Calculation Date for an Interest Period such rate for an Interest Determination Date in that Interest Period does not appear on the Telerate Page 5, the rate for the Interest Determination Date will be the rate for that day displayed on FEDSPREB Index on Bloomberg which is the Fed Funds Opening Rate as reported by Prebon Yamane (or a successor) on Bloomberg.

If on a Calculation Date for an Interest Period such rate for an Interest Determination Date in that Interest Period does not appear on Telerate Page 5 or FEDSPREB Index on Bloomberg, the rate for such Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight U.S. Dollar Federal Funds prior to 9.00 am, New York City time, on that day arranged by three brokers of Federal Funds transactions in New York City as selected by the Calculation Agent.
