                       UNDERWRITING

     Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated (the
     "Underwriter"), is acting as principal in this
     transaction.

     Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in a
     Terms Agreement dated January 14, 1994 (the "Terms
     Agreement"), 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,
     $150,000,000 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.
