Certain Investment Considerations:

  Prospective purchasers of the Notes should be aware that the
  Notes will pay interest at different fixed rates each year
  through the Maturity Date unless earlier redeemed by the
  Company.  Prospective purchasers should also be aware that the
  Company has the option to redeem the Notes on any Optional
  Redemption Date and will be likely to elect to redeem the Notes
  in the event prevailing market interest rates are lower than the
  then-current interest rate on the Notes.    

Plan of Distribution:

  The Notes are being purchased by Goldman Sachs & Co.
  (hereinafter referred to as the "Underwriter") as principal at
  a purchase price of 100% of the aggregate principal amount of
  the Notes.  The net proceeds to the Corporation will be 100% of
  the principal amount of the Notes.

  The Company has agreed to indemnify the Underwriter against and
  contribute toward certain liabilities, including liability under
  the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
