interests through participants, the ability of a person having an interest in debt securities represented by a global note to pledge or transfer those interests to persons or entities that do not participate in DTC&#146;s system, or otherwise to

affect the price of the securities. Specifically, the underwriters may over allot in connection with the offering, creating a short position. In addition, the representatives may bid for, and purchase, the securities in the open market to cover
short positions or to stabilize the price of the securities. Short positions involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater number of securities than they are required to purchase in the offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of certain bids
or purchases made for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the securities while the offering is in progress. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
