As of August 1, 1996, the Company entered into a supplemental
indenture with The Chase Manhattan Bank, as trustee, eliminating
the covenants of the Company described in the Prospectus under

the information under such caption is not applicable to the
Notes.
Additional Information:
General.
At September 28, 1996, the Company had outstanding indebtedness
totalling $114.704 billion, consisting of notes payable within
one year, senior notes payable after one year and subordinated
notes payable after one year. The total amount of outstanding
indebtedness at September 28, 1996 excluding subordinated notes

amended in its entirety, as follows:
Year Ended December Nine Months Ended
1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 September 28, 1996

Fixed charges consist of interest and discount on all
indebtedness and one-third of rentals, which the Company
believes is a reasonable approximation of the interest factor of
such rentals.
