STATEMENT RE DEBT ISSUE:

WYACONDA COMPANY LIMITED (the "Company")

U.S.$60,000,000 Protectors Fund Linked Principal Protected Notes due 2008 (the 
"Notes")

The Terms and Conditions of the above Notes have been amended from those set
forth in the Issue Supplement relating to the Notes dated 25 April 2002 (such
amended terms and Conditions the "Amended Terms and Conditions").

The Company has entered into a Swap Agreement with the Counterparty.

The way in which Optional Redemption Amount is calculated has been amended so
that references to "Early Redemption Deduction" have been replaced with "Swap
Termination Amount", "Swap Termination Amount" is defined as an amount equal to
the amount which would be payable by the Company to the Counterparty or by the
Counterparty to the Company upon termination of a swap agreement having
identical terms to the Swap Agreement except with a Notional Amount and a Fixed
Amount each reduced pro-rata to correspond with the proportion that the
principal amount of Notes being redeemed at the option of the holder bears to
the aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding.

The way in which Instalment Amount is calculated has been amended so that
references to "Redemption Deduction" have been deleted and replaced with "Final
Swap Payment" if such amount is payable by the Company or plus an amount equal
to the Final Swap Payment if such amount is payable to the Company.  "Final Swap
Payment" has been defined as the net amount payable by the Company to the
Counterparty or by the Counterparty to the Company under the Swap Agreement on
31 December 2007, subject to adjustment in accordance with the Modified
Following Business Day Convention for which the Business Days are London, New
York and Euro.

Condition 10(k) (iii) has been amended to read as follows:

"(iii) the date of final distribution to the holders of the Shares which the
Protectors Fund is obliged to make in such circumstances, then the Company shall
give notice of its intention to, and shall, redeem each Note at an amount equal
to the amount actually received by or on behalf of the Company from the
Protectors Fund in respect of the Note Allocation of Shares relating to such
Note less an amount equal to the Mandatory Swap Termination Amount if such
amount is payable by the Company or plus an amount equal to the Mandatory Swap
Termination Amount if such amount is payable to the Company (the "Note Mandatory
Payout Amount") on the fifth Payment Business Day following receipt by the
Company of such amount.

"Mandatory Swap Termination Amount" means an amount equal to the amount which is
payable by the Company to the Counterparty or by the Counterparty to the Company
upon termination of the Swap Agreement.

In addition the description of the Asset Allocation Test in the Issue Supplement
dated 25 April 2002 has been amended as follows: -

(a)  The words "but before December 31 2002" has been inserted after
     the words "After 29 November 2001" in the first line of the penultimate
     paragraph on page 24.

(b)  The following text has been inserted at the end of the first
     paragraph on page 25:

"As of any Valuation Date commencing on December 31, 2002, for the period from
and including such Valuation Date to and excluding the next Valuation Date,
shall equal the value determined by JPMorgan Chase Bank pursuant to the
following steps:

Step 1:   JP Morgan Chase Bank shall determine the Actual Sentinel Return with
respect to such Valuation Date. The "Actual Sentinel Return" with respect to a
Valuation Date shall equal the following, expressed as a percentage rounded to
two decimal places:

((SNAVVD/SNAVINCEPTION)^(1/(TIME)))-1

where:

"SNAVVD" = the Net Asset Value per Sentinel Fund Share as of such Valuation Date

"SNAVINCEPTION" = the Net Asset Value per Sentinel Fund Share as of December 1,
2001

"TIME" = the number of years set forth in the "Time (years)" column
corresponding to such Valuation Date in Table 1 below

"^"represents the power function

Step 2: JP Morgan Chase Bank shall, using Table 1 below, find the row
corresponding to such Valuation Date.

Step 2.1: If such Actual Sentinel Return corresponds precisely to Sentinel
Return set forth in a column in Table 1 below as applied to such row (including
by being described in the "Lower than 6%" column or the "Higher than 20%" column
in such table), "Y" shall equal the value set forth in the intersection between
such column and such row.

Step 2.2: If such Actual Sentinel Return falls between two Sentinel Returns set
forth in two columns in Table 1 below as applied to such row, "Y" shall equal
the value obtained by interpolating linearly between the two values set forth in
the intersections between such two columns and such row, based on the value of
such Actual Sentinel Return as compared to such two Sentinel Returns."
