<FONT size="2">We have two Competitive Advance and Revolving
Credit Facilities (the &#147;Revolver&#148;) and a commercial
paper program that collectively permit aggregate borrowings up
to $675&nbsp;million (the &#147;Variable Rate Credit
Facilities&#148;). The Revolver is comprised of two unsecured
lines, one limited to $375&nbsp;million principal amount
maturing September&nbsp;21, 2002, and the other limited to
$300&nbsp;million principal amount maturing September&nbsp;26,
2002. Borrowings under the Revolver are available on a committed
revolving credit basis at any of three short-term rates or
through an auction procedure at the time of each borrowing. We
primarily use the Revolver as credit support for our commercial
paper program in lieu of direct borrowings under the Revolver.

<FONT size="2">Our debt agreements contain maintenance
requirements for net worth and coverage of interest expense and
restrictions on incurrence of additional indebtedness. We are in
compliance with all debt covenants.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">We expect to replace the Revolver with comparable
facilities prior to their maturity dates.

    acquired Time Warner in January 2001. Accrued incentive
    compensation was decreased $11.5&nbsp;million, to zero, in the
    first quarter in connection with the decline in value of the
    Scripps Ventures&nbsp;I investment portfolio. First quarter net
    investment results increased net income $38.5&nbsp;million, or
    $.48 per share. For the full year, net realized losses were $2.9
    million. Net realized losses include the $65.9 gain on the
    exchange of our investment in Time Warner, an $11.7&nbsp;million
    gain on the sale of a portion of our investment in Centra
    Software, a $29.0&nbsp;million write-down of our investment in
    AOL Time Warner in the fourth quarter, and $51.2&nbsp;million in
    write-downs of other investments. Accrued incentive compensation
    was decreased $11.5&nbsp;million, to zero. Net investment
    results increased net income for the year $3.8&nbsp;million, or
    $.05&nbsp;per share.

<B><FONT size="4">DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES</FONT></B>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">The following description of the particular terms
of the notes supplements, and to the extent inconsistent
therewith replaces, the description of the general terms and
provisions of the notes set forth in the accompanying prospectus
(which prospectus refers to the notes as &#147;Debt
Securities&#148;), to which reference is hereby made.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<B><FONT size="2">General</FONT></B>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">The notes will initially be limited to
$200&nbsp;million principal amount and will mature on
July&nbsp;15, 2012. The notes will be issued in book-entry form
only in minimum denominations of $1,000, increased in multiples
of $1,000. Interest on the notes will accrue from July&nbsp;2,
2002 at the rate of 5&nbsp;3/4% per annum and will be payable
semi-annually on January&nbsp;15 and July&nbsp;15, beginning
January&nbsp;15, 2003, to the persons in whose names the notes
are registered at the close of business on the January&nbsp;1
and July&nbsp;1 preceding the respective interest payment dates,
except that interest payable at maturity shall be paid to the
same persons to whom principal of the notes is payable. Interest
will be computed on the notes on the basis of a 360-day year of
twelve 30-day months.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">The notes will constitute a series of Debt
Securities to be issued under an Indenture dated as of
September&nbsp;29, 1997, between Scripps and The Chase Manhattan
Bank (now known as JPMorgan Chase Bank), as Trustee, the terms
of which are more fully described in the accompanying
prospectus. The notes and any future Debt Securities issued
under the Indenture will be unsecured general obligations and
will rank on a parity with all our other unsecured and
unsubordinated indebtedness. The Indenture does not limit the
aggregate principal amount of Debt Securities that may be issued
thereunder and provides that Debt Securities may be issued
thereunder from time to time in one or more additional series.
The Indenture does not limit our ability to incur additional
indebtedness.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<B><FONT size="2">Issuance of Additional Notes</FONT></B>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">We may, without the consent of the holders,
increase the principal amount of the notes by issuing additional
notes in the future on the same terms and conditions, except for
any differences in the issue price and interest accrued prior to
the issue date of the additional notes, and with the same CUSIP
number as the notes offered hereby. The notes offered by this
prospectus supplement and any additional notes would rank
equally and ratably and would be treated as a single class for
all purposes under the Indenture.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<B><FONT size="2">Optional Redemption</FONT></B>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">The notes will be redeemable, in whole or in
part, at our option at any time at a redemption price equal to
the greater of (i)&nbsp;100% of the principal amount of the
notes and (ii)&nbsp;as determined by the Quotation Agent (as
defined below), the sum of the present values of the remaining
scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (not
including any portion of those payments of interest accrued as
of the date of redemption) discounted to the date of redemption
on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of
twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate (as defined
below) plus 15&nbsp;basis points, plus, in each case, accrued
interest thereon to the date of redemption.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">&#147;Adjusted Treasury Rate&#148; means, with
respect to any date of redemption, the rate per annum equal to
the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable
Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury
Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal
to the Comparable Treasury Price for that date of redemption.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">&#147;Comparable Treasury Issue&#148; means the
United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent
as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the
notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of
selection and in accordance with customary financial practice,
in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable
maturity to the remaining term of those notes.

Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such

shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in

substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (ii)&nbsp;any
other Primary Treasury Dealers selected by us.

quoted in writing to the Trustee by that Reference Treasury
Dealer at 5:00 p.m. New York City time, on the third business
day preceding that date of redemption.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">Notice of any redemption will be mailed at least
30&nbsp;days but not more than 60 days before the date of
redemption to each holder of the notes to be redeemed. Unless we
default in payment of the redemption price, on and after the
date of redemption, interest will cease to accrue on the notes

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">The notes will trade in the same-day funds
settlement system of The Depository Trust Company
(&#147;DTC&#148;) until maturity or until we issue the notes in
definitive form. DTC will therefore require secondary market
trading activity in the notes to settle in immediately available
funds. We can give no assurance as to the effect, if any, of
settlement in immediately available funds on trading activity in
the notes.

<P align="left">
<I><FONT size="2">General</FONT></I>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">The notes will be issued in the form of one or
more fully registered global securities. For purposes of this
prospectus supplement, &#147;Global Security&#148; refers to the
global security or global securities representing the entire
issue of the notes. The Global Security will be deposited with
the Trustee as Custodian for DTC and registered in the name of
Cede &#38; Co. (&#147;Cede&#148;) as DTC&#146;s nominee. Except
in the limited circumstances described below, the notes will not
be issued in definitive certificated form. The Global Security
may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only to another
nominee of DTC. We understand as follows with respect to the
rules and operating procedures of DTC, which affect transfers of
interests in the Global Security.

<P align="left">
<I><FONT size="2">DTC</FONT></I>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">DTC is a limited purpose trust company organized
under the New York Banking Law, a &#147;banking
organization&#148; within the meaning of the New York Banking
Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a &#147;clearing
corporation&#148; within the meaning of the New York Uniform
Commercial Code and a &#147;clearing agency&#148; registered
pursuant to the provisions of Section&nbsp;17A of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. DTC was created to hold securities for its
participants (&#147;Participants&#148;) and to facilitate the
clearance and settlement of securities transactions, such as
transfers and pledges, between Participants through electronic
computerized book-entry changes in the accounts of its
Participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement
of certificates. Participants include securities brokers and
dealers, banks, trust companies and clearing corporations and
may include certain other organizations, such as the
Underwriters. DTC is owned by a number of Participants and by
the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., The American Stock Exchange
LLC and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
Indirect access to the DTC system also is available to others
such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear
through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Participant,
either directly or indirectly (&#147;Indirect
Participants&#148;).
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">Persons who are not Participants may beneficially
own notes held by DTC only through Participants or Indirect
Participants. Beneficial ownership of notes may be reflected
(i)&nbsp;for investors who are Participants, in the records of
DTC, (ii)&nbsp;for investors holding through a Participant, in
the records of such Participant, whose aggregate interests on
behalf of all investors holding through such Participant will be
reflected in turn in the records of DTC, or (iii)&nbsp;for
investors holding through an Indirect Participant, in the
records of such Indirect Participant, whose aggregate interests
on behalf of all investors holding through such Indirect
Participant will be reflected in turn in the records of a
Participant. Accordingly, transfers of beneficial ownership in
the Global Security can only be effected through DTC, a
Participant or an Indirect Participant. Each of the underwriters
is a Participant or an Indirect Participant.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">Interests in the Global Security will be shown
on, and transfers thereof will be effected only through, records
maintained by DTC and its Participants. The Global Security will
trade in DTC&#146;s Same-Day Funds Settlement System until
maturity, and secondary market trading activity for the Global
Security will therefore settle in immediately available funds.
The laws of some states require that certain persons take
physical delivery in definitive form of securities.
Consequently, the ability to transfer beneficial interests in
the Global Security to such persons may be limited.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">So long as Cede, as the nominee of DTC, is the
registered owner of the Global Security, Cede for all purposes
will be considered the sole holder of the notes under the
Indenture. Except as provided below, owners of beneficial
interests in the Global Security will not be entitled to have
notes registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled
to receive physical delivery of notes in definitive certified
form and will not be considered the holders thereof under the
Indenture. Accordingly, any person owning a beneficial interest
in the Global Security must rely on the procedures of DTC and,
if such person is not a Participant in DTC, on the procedures of
the Participant through which such person, directly or
indirectly, owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a
holder of notes.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">Because DTC can only act on behalf of
Participants, who in turn act on behalf of Indirect Participants
and certain banks, the ability of an owner of a beneficial
interest in the notes to pledge such notes to persons or
entities that do not participate in the DTC system, or otherwise
take actions in respect of such notes, may be affected by the
lack of a physical certificate for such notes.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">Payment of principal of and interest on the notes
will be made to Cede, the nominee for DTC<I>, </I>as the
registered owner of the Global Security. Neither we nor the
Trustee, nor any agents of ours or the Trustee, will have any
responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records
relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership
interests in the Global Security or for maintaining, supervising
or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership
interests.

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">Upon receipt of any payment of principal of or
interest on the Global Security, we understand that it is the
practice of DTC to credit the Participants&#146; accounts with
payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial
interests in the principal amount of the Global Security as
shown on the records of DTC. Payments by Participants to owners
of beneficial interests in the Global Security held through such
Participants will be the responsibility of such Participants, as
is now the case with securities held for the accounts of
customers registered in &#147;street name.&#148;
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">If we redeem less than all of the notes, we have
been advised that it is DTC&#146;s practice to determine by lot
the amount of the interest of each Participant in the notes to
be redeemed.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">We understand that under existing industry
practices, if we request holders of the notes to take action, or
if an owner of a beneficial interest in a Note desires to take
any action which a holder is entitled to take under the
Indenture, then (1)&nbsp;DTC would authorize the Participants
holding the relevant beneficial interests to take such action,
and (2)&nbsp;such Participants would authorize the beneficial
owners owning through such Participants to take such action or
would otherwise act upon the instructions of beneficial owners
owning through them.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">Although DTC has agreed to the foregoing
procedures in order to facilitate transfers of notes among its
Participants, it is under no obligation to perform or continue
to perform such procedures and such procedures may be
discontinued at any time. Neither we nor the Trustee, nor any
agents of ours or the Trustee, will have any responsibility for
the performance by DTC or its Participants or Indirect
Participants of their respective obligations under the rules and
procedures governing their operations.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">If an Event of Default (as defined in the
accompanying prospectus) has occurred and is continuing and all
principal and accrued interest in respect of the notes shall
have become immediately due and payable or if DTC is at any time
unwilling, unable or ineligible to continue as depositary for
the Global Security and a successor depositary is not appointed
by us within 60&nbsp;days, we will issue individual certificated
notes in definitive form in exchange for the Global Security. In
addition, we may at any time determine not to have the notes
represented by the Global Security, and, in such event, will
issue individual certificated notes in definitive form in
exchange for the Global Security. In any such instance, an owner
of a beneficial interest in the Global Security will be entitled
to physical delivery of individual certificated notes in
definitive form equal in principal amount to such beneficial
interest in the Global Security and to have all such
certificated notes registered in its name. Individual
certificated notes so issued in definitive form will be issued
in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof and
will be issued in registered form only, without coupons.

underwriting agreement, if the underwriters take any of the
notes, then the underwriters are obligated to take and pay for
all of the notes.

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">The notes are a new issue of securities with no
established trading market and will not be listed on any
securities exchange. The underwriters have advised us that they
intend to make a market in the notes, but they have no
obligation to do so and may discontinue market making at any
time without providing notice. No assurances can be given as to
the liquidity of any trading market for the notes.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<FONT size="2">The underwriters initially propose to offer part
of the notes directly to the public at the offering price
described on the cover page of this prospectus supplement and
part to certain dealers at a price that represents a concession
not in excess of .40% of the principal amount of the notes. Any
underwriter may allow, and any such dealer may reallow, a
commission not in excess of .25% of the principal amount of the
notes to certain other dealers. After the initial offering of
the notes, the underwriters may from time to time vary the
offering price and other selling terms.

such liabilities.

<FONT size="2">In connection with the offering of the notes, the
underwriters may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain
or otherwise affect the price of the notes. Specifically, the
underwriters may overallot in connection with the offering of
the notes, creating a syndicate short position. In addition, the
underwriters may bid for, and purchase, notes in the open market
to cover syndicate short positions or to stabilize the price of
the notes. Finally, the underwriting syndicate may reclaim
selling concessions allowed for distributing the notes in the
offering of the notes, if the syndicate repurchases previously
distributed notes in syndicate covering transactions,
stabilization transactions or otherwise. Any of these activities
may stabilize or maintain the market price of the notes above
independent market levels. The underwriters are not required to
engage in any of these activities and may end any of them at any
time.

<FONT size="2">The Company is a diversified media company
operating in three business segments: newspapers, broadcast
television and entertainment. Founded by Edward W. Scripps, the
Company began publishing its first newspaper in 1878 and
operating its first television station in 1947. Three members of
the Company&#146;s Board of Directors are direct descendants of
the founder, and a trust established by the founder in 1922 owns
a controlling interest in the Company. The Company emphasizes
quality, editorial independence and integrity, and public
service in managing its media businesses and believes that its
continuing commitment to long-term goals has been an important
factor in its success.

Company is the tenth largest newspaper publisher in the United
States, with daily newspapers reaching fifteen separate markets
and total circulation of approximately 1.179&nbsp;million daily
and 1.307&nbsp;million Sunday. From its Washington bureau the
Company operates the Scripps Howard News Service, a supplemental
wire service covering stories in the capital, other parts of the
United States and abroad. The newspaper segment generated
approximately 60% of the Company&#146;s total revenues in 1996.

the trade name United Media, the Company is a leading
distributor of news columns, comics and other features for the
newspaper industry, including &#147;Peanuts&#148; and
&#147;Dilbert,&#148; and licenses worldwide copyrights relating

<FONT size="2">On May 16, 1997, the Company agreed to acquire
the newspaper and broadcast operations of Harte-Hanks
Communications, Inc. (&#147;Harte-Hanks&#148;) for
$775&nbsp;million, plus working capital, in cash. The
Harte-Hanks newspaper and broadcast operations include daily
newspapers in Abilene, Corpus Christi, Plano, San Angelo and
Wichita Falls, Texas, a daily newspaper in Anderson, South
Carolina (collectively, the &#147;HHC Newspaper
Operations&#148;), and a television and radio station in San
Antonio, Texas (the &#147;HHC Broadcast Operations&#148;). The
acquisition of the HHC Newspaper Operations will increase the
Company&#146;s separate newspaper markets to 21 and its total
circulation to approximately 1.5&nbsp;million daily and
1.6&nbsp;million Sunday. The Company expects to complete the
acquisition in October&nbsp;1997.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">On September&nbsp;4, 1997, the Company agreed to
sell the HHC Broadcast Operations to certain subsidiaries of
A.H. Belo Corporation (&#147;Belo&#148;). The Company will
receive $75&nbsp;million in cash and Belo&#146;s approximate 58%
controlling interest in The Television Food Network, G.P.
(&#147;TVFN,&#148; a 24-hour cable television network). The
amount of cash the Company will receive will be adjusted based
upon the positive or negative working capital of TVFN and the
HHC Broadcast Operations at the closing date. Immediately after
the Company closes the purchase of the HHC Newspaper and
Broadcast Operations, Belo will pay the Company
$37.5&nbsp;million and will transfer its interest in TVFN to the
Company. Belo will operate the HHC Broadcast Operations under a
Local Marketing Agreement until the Federal Communications
Commission (&#147;FCC&#148;) approves the transfer of the HHC
Broadcast Operations&#146; FCC licenses to Belo, at which time
the sale of the HHC Broadcast Operations will be completed and
Belo will pay the Company the balance of the purchase price.
Based on information provided to the Company by Belo, TVFN had
approximately 26.5&nbsp;million subscribers as of June&nbsp;30,
1997. The Company expects to complete the sale of the HHC
Broadcast Operations by the end of 1997.

original issue discount securities (bearing no interest or

<B><FONT size="2">Effect of Corporate Structure</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The Debt Securities will be obligations of the
Company. Since the operations of the Company are conducted
primarily through subsidiaries, the Company&#146;s cash flow and
consequently its ability to service debt, including the Debt
Securities, is dependent, in large part, upon the earnings of
its subsidiaries and the payment of funds by those subsidiaries
to the Company in the form of loans, dividends or otherwise,
which payment is subject to various business considerations. The
subsidiaries of the Company are separate and distinct legal
entities and have no obligation, contingent or otherwise, to pay
any amounts due pursuant to the Debt Securities or to make any
funds available therefor.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Any right of the Company to receive assets of any
of its subsidiaries upon their liquidation or reorganization
(and the consequent right of the holders of Debt Securities to
participate in those assets) will be effectively subordinated to
the claims of that subsidiary&#146;s creditors (including trade
creditors), except to the extent that the Company is itself
recognized as a creditor of such subsidiary. In such case the
claims of the Company may still be subordinate to the claims of
creditors secured by the assets of such subsidiary and any
claims of creditors of such subsidiary senior to those held by
the Company.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">At June&nbsp;30, 1997, subsidiaries of the
Company had less than $100,000,000 of indebtedness to parties
other than the Company or its subsidiaries (such $100,000,000
does not include program rights obligations and amounts owed to
trade creditors and employees). There are no restrictions in the
Indenture on the creation of additional indebtedness, including
indebtedness of the Company&#146;s subsidiaries, and the
incurrence of significant amounts of additional indebtedness
could have an adverse impact on the Company&#146;s ability to
service its indebtedness, including the Debt Securities.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The Debt Securities of a series may be issued in
whole or in part in the form of one or more global Securities
that will be deposited with, or on behalf of, a depositary
identified in the Prospectus Supplement (the
&#147;Depositary&#148;). Global Securities may be issued in
either registered or bearer form and in either temporary or
permanent form. (Section 301). Unless and until it is exchanged
for Debt Securities in definitive form, including a permanent
global Security, a temporary global Security in registered form
may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary for
such global Security to a nominee of such Depositary or by a
nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee
of such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to
a successor of such Depositary or a nominee of such successor
Depositary. (Section&nbsp;305).
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The specific terms of the depositary arrangement
with respect to a series of Debt Securities or any part thereof
will be described in the Prospectus Supplement. The Company
anticipates that the following provisions will apply to all
depositary arrangements relating to global Securities.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Upon the issuance of a global Security, the
Depositary for such global Security or its nominee will credit
the accounts of persons holding a beneficial interest in such
global Security with the respective principal amount of the Debt
Securities represented by such global Security. Such accounts
shall be designated by the underwriters or agents with respect
to such Debt Securities or by the Company if such Debt
Securities are offered and sold directly by the Company.
Ownership of beneficial interests in a global Security will be
limited to persons that have accounts with the Depositary for
such global Security or its nominee (&#147;participants&#148;)
or persons that may hold interests through participants.
Ownership of beneficial interests in such global Security will
be shown on, and the transfer of that ownership will be effected
only through, records maintained by the Depositary or its
nominee (with respect to interests of persons other than
participants). The laws of some states require that certain
purchasers of securities take physical delivery of such
securities in definitive form. Such limitations and laws may
impair the ability to transfer beneficial interests in a global
Security.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">So long as the Depositary for a global Security,
or its nominee, is the registered owner or bearer, as the case
may be, of such global Security, such Depositary or such
nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner
or holder of the Debt Securities represented by such global
Security for all purposes under the Indenture. (Section 308).
Except as provided below, owners of beneficial interests in a
global Security will not be entitled to have Debt Securities
represented by such global Security registered in their names,
will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of
such Debt Securities in definitive form and will not be
considered the owners or holders thereof under the Indenture.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Payment of principal of, and any premium and
interest on, Debt Securities registered in the name of a
Depositary or its nominee will be made to the Depositary or its
nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner or bearer,
as the case may be, of the global Security representing such
Debt Securities. Neither the Company, the Trustee, any Paying
Agent nor the Security Registrar for such Debt Securities will
have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the
records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial
ownership interests of the global Security for such Debt
Securities or for maintaining, supervising or receiving any
records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The Company expects that the Depositary or its
nominee, as the case may be, upon receipt of any payment of
principal, premium or interest, will credit immediately
participants&#146; accounts with payments in amounts
proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in the
principal amount of the global Security for such Debt Securities
as shown on the records of such Depositary or its nominee,
subject to the furnishing of the certificate described above
under &#147;Payment and Paying Agents&#148; in the case of a
global Security in which interests are exchangeable for Bearer
Securities. The Company also expects that payments by
participants to owners of beneficial interests in such global
Security held through such participants will be governed by
standing instructions and customary practices, as is now the
case with securities held for the accounts of customers in
bearer form or registered in &#147;street name,&#148; and will
be the responsibility of such participants. Receipt by owners of
beneficial interests in a temporary global Security of payments
in respect of such temporary global Security will be subject, in
the case of a global Security in which interests are
exchangeable for Bearer Securities, to the furnishing of the
certificate described above under &#147;Payment and Paying
Agents.&#148;

<FONT size="2">If the Depositary is at any time unwilling or
unable to continue as depositary or the Depositary is no longer
eligible to so serve and a successor depositary is not appointed
by the Company within 90&nbsp;days, the Company will issue Debt
Securities of such series in definitive form in exchange for the
global Security representing such series of Debt Securities. In
addition, the Company may at any time and in its sole discretion
determine not to have the Registered Securities of a series
represented by a global Security and, in such event, the Company
will issue Registered Securities of such series in definitive
form in exchange for the global Security representing such
series of Registered Securities. Further, if the Company so
specifies with respect to the Debt Securities of a series, an
owner of a beneficial interest in a global Security representing
Debt Securities of such series may, on terms acceptable to the
Company and the Depositary, receive Debt Securities of such
series in definitive form. In any such instance, an owner of a
beneficial interest in a global Security will be entitled to
physical delivery in definitive form of Debt Securities of the
series represented by such global Security equal in principal
amount to such beneficial interest and to have such Debt
Securities registered in its name (if the Debt Securities of
such series are issuable as Registered Securities).

Debt Security to the Trustee. Debt Securities or coupons that
become destroyed, stolen or lost will be replaced by the Company
at the expense of the Holder upon delivery to the Company and
the Trustee of evidence of any destruction, loss or theft
thereof satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee (provided
that the Company or the Trustee has not been notified that such
Debt Security or coupon has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser); in the case of any coupon which becomes destroyed,
stolen or lost, such coupon will be replaced by issuance of a
new Debt Security in exchange for the Debt Security to which
such coupon appertains. In the case of a destroyed, lost or
stolen Debt Security or coupon, an indemnity satisfactory to the
Trustee and the Company may be required at the expense of the
Holder of such Debt Security or coupon before a replacement Debt
Security will be issued. (Section&nbsp;306).
