This Pricing Supplement supplements and, to the extent inconsistent
therewith, amends the description of the Notes referred to above in the
accompanying Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus.
INTEREST
Interest on the Notes will be calculated based on a year of 360 days
consisting of 12 months and the actual number of days occurring in any such
month.
If any payment of principal or interest is due on a day that is not a
Business Day, that payment may be made on the next succeeding Business
Day. No additional interest will accrue as a result of the delay in
payment. For purposes of the offering made hereby, "Business Day" as used
herein and in the accompanying Prospectus Supplement means each day on
which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments in The
City of New York. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the
meanings assigned in the accompanying Prospectus Supplement and
Prospectus.
OPTION
Issuer will have the right to convert in whole from a Fed Funds based
interest rate to a Fixed Interest Rate of 5.75% on June 30, 1997 and on
each Interest Payment Date thereafter, upon 10 calendar days irrevocable
notice by telephone and facsimile prior to 12:00 noon.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The Notes will be sold to Smith Barney Inc. for resale to one or more
investors at a fixed public offering price. After the initial public offering
of the Notes, the public offering price and any concession or discount may be
changed.
