                                            Termination Valuation Date. If such
                                            notice is received by a party after
                                            5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on

                                            day which is not an Exchange
                                            Business Day, then the notice will
                                            be deemed effective on the next
                                            following Exchange Business Day. The
                                            party which has exercised its right
                                            to designate an Optional Termination
                                            Valuation Date will execute and
                                            deliver a written notice confirming
                                            the substance of any telephonic

                                            notice. Failure to provide that
                                            written notice will not affect the
                                            validity of the telephonic notice.

                                            For the avoidance of doubt, if
                                            either party designates an Optional
                                            Termination Valuation Date pursuant

ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS:


Agency. Counterparty acknowledges that Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. ("BS&C") has
acted as agent for Counterparty solely for the purposes of arranging this
Transaction with its Affiliate, Bear Stearns. This Confirmation is being
provided by BS&C in such capacity. Upon your written request, BS&C will furnish
you with the time at which this Transaction was entered into.

Incorporation of Terms. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that
Sections 5 and 6 of the Form Master Agreement are incorporated herein, and the
parties expressly specify that Market Quotation and Second Method shall apply
unless otherwise specified herein.

Non-Reliance. Each party represents to the other party that (a) it has not
received and is not relying upon any legal, tax, regulatory, accounting or other
advice (whether written or oral) of the other party regarding this Transaction,
other than representations expressly made by that other party in this
Confirmation and in the Master Agreement and (b) in respect of this Transaction,
(i) it has the capacity to evaluate (internally or through independent
professional advice) this Transaction and has made its own decision to enter
into this Transaction and (ii) it understands the terms, conditions and risks of
this Transaction and is willing to assume (financially and otherwise) those
risks. Counterparty acknowledges that Bear Stearns has advised Counterparty to
consult its own tax, accounting and legal advisors in connection with this
Transaction evidenced by this Confirmation and that the Counterparty has done
so.

Payment Date Netting. The parties agree that subparagraph (ii) of Section 2(c)
of the Master Agreement will not apply to any Transactions that are or will be
governed by the Master Agreement. Thus all amounts payable on the same date in
the same currency in respect of all Transactions shall be netted.

Governing Law: Unless otherwise specified in the Executed Master Agreement, the
laws of the State of New York, without reference to the choice or conflicts of
law principles thereof.

Guaranty. The Guaranty of The Bear Stearns Companies Inc. ("TBSCI"), which will
be a Credit Support Document and which Bear Stearns will provide upon execution
of the Executed Master Agreement.

Termination Currency. Unless otherwise specified in the Executed Master
Agreement or agreed by the parties, USD shall be the Termination Currency.

Transfer. Unless otherwise specified in the Executed Master Agreement, either
party may transfer its rights and obligations under this Transaction in
accordance with Section 7 of the Master Agreement. However, (a) unless otherwise
specified in the Executed Master Agreement, Bear Stearns may also transfer its
rights and obligations under this Transaction, in whole or in part, to TBSCI or
any of its Affiliates, provided such Affiliate's obligations under this
Transaction shall be guaranteed by TBSCI to the same extent as the obligations
of Bear Stearns hereunder are so guaranteed and (b) unless otherwise specified
in the Executed Master Agreement, Counterparty may also transfer its rights and
obligations under this Transaction, in whole or in part, to a third party with
Bear Stearns's consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Bear Stearns may withhold such consent
solely upon any of the following bases: (i) such transferee's creditworthiness
would be weaker than that of Counterparty, (ii) Bear Stearns's failure to
negotiate acceptable credit terms (including terms relating to collateral) from
such transferee, (iii) the transfer would result in withholding tax from any
payments to be made by such transferee, (iv) an Event of Default has occurred
with respect to Counterparty or such a transfer will cause an Event of Default
to occur with respect to either party, (v) such transferee is in a jurisdiction
in which netting under the Master Agreement is not enforceable, and (vi) it
becomes unlawful for either party to perform any obligation under the Master
Agreement.

This Confirmation may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall
be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the
same instrument.

Counterparty hereby agrees to check this Confirmation and to confirm that the
foregoing correctly sets forth the terms of the Transaction by signing in the
space provided below and returning to Bear Stearns a facsimile of the
fully-executed Confirmation to 212-272-9857. For inquiries regarding U.S.
