UBS Securities Inc. (the "Underwriter"), is acting as
principal in this transaction.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in a Terms

between the Corporation and the Underwriter, and a Selling
Agency Agreement, dated March 25, 1993, between the
Corporation and Merrill Lynch & Co., Merrill Lynch, Pierce,
Fenner & Smith Incorporated, The First Boston Corporation,
Goldman, Sachs & Co., Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated,
Shearson Lehman Brothers Inc. (currently known as Lehman
Brothers Inc.), and UBS Securities Inc., the Corporation has
agreed to sell to the Underwriter, and the Underwriter has
agreed to purchase, $100,000,000 principal amount of the
Notes.
Under the terms and conditions of the Terms Agreement, the
Underwriter is committed to take and pay for all of the
Notes, if any are taken.
The Underwriter has advised the Corporation that it proposes
to offer the Notes for sale from time to time in one or more
transactions (which may include block transactions), in
negotiated transactions or otherwise, or a combination of
such methods of sale, at market prices prevailing at the
time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market
prices or at negotiated prices. The Underwriter may effect
such transactions by selling the Notes to or through
dealers, and such dealers may receive compensation in the
form of underwriting discounts, concessions or commissions
from the Underwriter and/or the purchasers of the Notes for
whom they may act as agent. In connection with the sale of
the Notes, the Underwriter may be deemed to have received
compensation from the Corporation in the form of
underwriting discounts, and the Underwriter may also receive
commissions from the purchasers of the Notes for whom they
may act as agent. The Underwriter and any dealers that
participate with the Underwriter in the distribution of the
Notes may be deemed to be underwriters, and any discounts or
commissions received by them and any profit on the resale of
the Notes by them may be deemed to be underwriting discounts
or commissions.
The Notes are a new issue of securities with no established
trading market. The Corporation currently has no intention
to list the Notes on any securities exchange. The
Corporation has been advised by the Underwriter that it
intends to make a market in the Notes but is not obligated
to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time
without notice. No assurance can be given as to the
liquidity of the trading market for the Notes.
The Corporation has agreed to indemnify the Underwriter
against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
