(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

General
At September 30, 1995, the Company had outstanding indebtedness
totalling $100.241 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 30, 1995 excluding subordinated notes

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.
