   Interest will be payable in arrears on January 19 of each year
(each, an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing January 19, 1995,
and on the Maturity Date.  The "Interest Period" with respect to a
Note is each successive period from and including an Interest
Payment Date with respect to such Note (or January 19, 1994 in the
case of the first Interest Period) to but excluding the next
Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date.  The "Interest
Determination Date" is two Business Days (as defined below)
preceding January 19, 1995. Interest will be calculated on the
basis of a 360 day year, consisting of twelve 30 day months. In the
event any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day
other than a Business Day, no interest will accrue from such
Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be.

   The interest rate shall be 6.00% per annum for the Interest
Period from and including January 19, 1994 to but excluding the
Interest Payment Date occurring on January 19, 1995.  Thereafter,
the interest rate for the remaining terms of the Notes will be
fixed at the annualized equivalent of the per annum rate calculated
by the Calculation Agent (as defined below) on the Interest
Determination Date in accordance with the following formula:

                            29.25% - (4 * 5YRSR).

In no event shall the interest rate be less than 0.00% per annum
for any Interest Period.  

   For the purposes of these Notes, the following terms shall have
the following meanings:

   "5YRSR" means the 5 Year Sterling Swap Rate, being the offered
five year Sterling fixed swap rate versus 6-month LIBOR, quoted on
a semi-annual actual/365 day basis (expressed as a percentage on an
annual 30/360 day basis), which appears on Telerate Page 42279 as
of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the applicable Interest
Determination Date; provided that, if on the Interest Determination
Date the 5 Year Sterling Swap Rate does not appear on the Telerate
Page 42279 as aforesaid, the Calculation Agent will request each of
five Reference Dealers (as defined below) to provide the
Calculation Agent with its offer quotation

                                                                     Page 5

for such rate as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the Interest
Determination Date.  The rate to be used in place of such 5 Year
Sterling Swap Rate by the Calculation Agent shall be the arithmetic
mean of the offered quotations provided by the Reference Dealers in
respect of such rate, provided at least two such Reference Dealers
provide quotations in respect thereof.  In the event that the 5
Year Sterling Swap Rate does not appear on Telerate Page 42279 and
less than two of the Reference Dealers are able to provide an offer
quotation for any such rate, then the rate shall be the last
available rate appearing on the Telerate Page 42279.

   "Business Day" means any day other than a Saturday or Sunday or
any other day on which banking institutions are generally
authorized or obligated by law or regulation to close in New York,
New York or London, England.

   "Reference Dealer" means any major bank or banking corporation
selected in good faith by the Calculation Agent which will provide
offered quotations on 5 Year Sterling Swap Rate.

   "Telerate Page 42279" means the display designated as "Page
42279" on the Dow Jones Telerate Service (or such other page as may
replace such page on that service or such other service as may be
nominated by the International Financing Review for the purpose of
displaying Sterling floating swap rates).

   References herein to  "GBP" or "sterling" are to the currency of
the United Kingdom.  References herein to "US$" or "dollars" are to
the currency of the United States of America. 
 
   "Calculation Agent" means Morgan Stanley Capital Services Inc.

   Interest on the Notes will be calculated on a 30/360 day basis.

Certain Investment Considerations

   Investors should be aware that the Notes are inverse floating
rate notes.  If the 5 Year Sterling Swap Rate increases from one
Interest Period to another, the interest rate on the Notes will
decrease for the corresponding Interest Period, including the
possibility that no interest will be payable for the Interest
Period.  In addition, investors should be aware that the formula
used to compute interest on the Notes contains a leverage factor
which magnifies the effect of changes in the 5 Year Sterling Swap
Rate.

   Investors should be aware that the amount of interest payable in
respect of each Interest Period will be affected by the level of
interest rates in Great Britain and the United States of America. 
Consequently, the related interest payments on the Notes might be
subject to significant fluctuation related to, among other factors,
political and economic factors affecting Great Britain and the
United States, over which the Company has no control.

Plan of Distribution

   Morgan Stanley International will act as Agent in connection with
the sale of the Notes.
