Optional Redemption.
The Company may at its option elect to redeem the Notes in whole
or in part on April 18, 1996 or on any Interest Payment Date
thereafter (each such date, an "Optional Redemption Date") at
100% of their principal amount plus accrued interest to but
excluding the date of redemption (the "Redemption Date"). In

days prior to the Redemption Date.
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.
