The stock purchase contract requires the holder to purchase for $25 a variable number of shares of Household Intl (NYSE: HI) common stock no later than 2/15/2006. The stock purchase settlement rate will be 0.9735 shares per unit if the then current market price is equal to or greater than $25.68 and 1.1682 shares per unit if the market price is equal to or less than $21.40.

The senior note is due 2/15/2008 and is subject to reset and remarketing on or after 11/15/2005. The Normal Units pay quarterly distributions of 8.875% ($2.21875) per annum on 2/15, 5/15, 8/15 & 11/15 to holders of record one business day prior to the payment date while the securities remain in book-entry form. The senior notes are pledged as collateral to secure the holder's obligations under the stock purchase contract. The holder has the right at any time to convert the Normal Units to Stripped Units by the substitution of a specified zero-coupon U.S. Treasury security for the senior notes and to later recreate Normal Units. The senior notes are unsecured and rank equally with the company's other unsecured senior indebtedness.
