Optional Redemption.
The Company may at its option elect to redeem the Notes in whole
or in part on February 22, 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
the event the Company elects to redeem the Notes, notice will be
given to registered holders not more than 60 nor less than 30
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.
Plan of Distribution:
The Notes are being purchased by Salomon Brothers Inc
(hereinafter referred to as the "Underwriter") as principal at
a purchase price of 100% of the aggregate principal amount of
the Notes. The Notes will be sold to the public at varying
prices to be determined by the Underwriter at the time of each
sale. 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.
