Can anyone help me with the construction of confidence and prediction
intervals for time series forecasts?

I am familiar with CIs and PIs for estimated values of y ( y = B0 + B1x)
with ordinary least squares regression.  In this case, I have a naive time
series model that has been transformed to a linear relationship and
estimated with OLS.

model:   Y-stock = N0 - N1*exp{-kt}
 ==>     Y-increment = k*N1*exp{-kt}

estimate      ln{Y-increment} = ln{k*N1} - kt

Intervals in OLS are a function of the variance of the estimate, which
increases as one's prediction moves further away from the mean of the x
values.  Is this same process applicable with this model?  How can I
construct such an interval to splice on the end of the data series to
provide some idea of forecase error?

Many thanks.
