Receivables, the cost of financing such Receivables for the three
(3) month period commencing December 1, 1999 and for each three
(3) month period thereafter will be based on one-year treasuries
plus 25 basis points to be reset every three (3) months, with one
(1) year treasuries not to be more than six and three-quarters
percent (6.75%) per annum and not to be less than five percent
