On October 8, 2008, and on the Interest Payment Dates set forth in the schedule below, the interest rate on the Notes will be reset. The applicable interest per annum with respect to each Interest Period set forth below, will be in effect from and including the first day of each Interest Period, to and including the last day of such Interest Period:

Interest Period:	Interest Rate:

October 8, 2004 to October 7, 2008	4.25% per annum
October 8, 2008 to October 7, 2012	5.25% per annum
October 8, 2012 to October 7, 2016	6.25% per annum
October 8, 2016 to but excluding October 8, 2020	7.75% per annum

Optional Redemption:

The Company may at its option elect to redeem the Notes in whole on October 8, 2008 or on any Interest Payment Date thereafter (each such date, an "Optional Redemption Date) at 100% of their principal amount plus accrued interest to but excluding the date of redemption. In the event the Company elects to redeem the Notes, notice will be given to registered holders not more than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to the Optional Redemption Date.

Certain Investment Considerations:

Prospective purchasers of the Notes should be aware that the Notes will pay interest at different fixed rates each year through the Maturity Date unless earlier redeemed by the Company. Prospective purchasers should also be aware that the Company has the option to redeem the Notes on any Optional Redemption Date and will be likely to elect to redeem the Notes in the event prevailing market interest rates are lower than the then-current interest rate on the Notes.

Consolidated Ratio of Earning to Fixed Charges.

The information contained in the Prospectus under the caption "Consolidated Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges" is hereby amended in its entirety, as follows:

		Year Ended December 31,			Six Months Ended June 30, 2004
1999	2000	2001	2002	2003
1.60	1.52	1.72	1.65	1.86	1.73

For purposes of computing the consolidated ratio of earnings to fixed charges, earnings consist of net earnings adjusted for the provision for income taxes, minority interest and fixed charges. Fixed charges consist of interest and discount on all indebtedness and one-third of rentals, which the Company believes is a reasonable approximation of the interest factor of such rentals.

Plan of Distribution:

The Notes are being purchased by Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (the "Underwriter"), as principal, at the Issue Price of 100.00% of the aggregate principal amount. The Underwriter has advised the Company that the Underwriter proposes to offer the Notes from time to time for sale in negotiated transactions or otherwise, at prices to be determined at the time of sale.

The Company has agreed to indemnify the Underwriter against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
