Item 5: Other Events
First National Bank of Omaha, a substantially wholly-owned subsidiary of First
National of Nebraska, Inc., issued $75 million of Subordinated Notes (the
"Notes") on December 7, 1995. The Notes bear interest at a fixed-rate of 7.32%
and are due December 1, 2010.
The net proceeds from the sale of the Notes will be used by First National Bank
of Omaha (the "Bank") for general banking purposes. The Bank anticipates making
a dividend to First National of Nebraska, Inc. ("FNNI") of $52.5 million on
December 7, 1995. FNNI will use $51.7 million of such funds to repay a credit
line used to finance acquisitions. The balance of such funds will be available
to the Bank and FNNI for general corporate purposes and to enhance the capital
position of the Bank.
The Notes have not been, and are not required to be, registered with the Office
of the Comptroller of the Currency or with the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Notes are solely
obligations of the Bank and are neither obligations of, nor guaranteed by, FNNI
or its affiliates other than the Bank.
