Additional Terms:
Certain Covenants of the Company.
As of August 1, 1996, the Company entered into a supplemental
indenture with The Chase Manhattan Bank, as trustee (the
"Trustee"), eliminating the covenants of the Company
described in the Prospectus under the caption "Certain
Covenants of the Company". Consequently, the information
under such caption is not applicable to the Notes. As of
February 27, 1997, the Company entered into a Third Amended
and Restated Indenture with the Trustee. References in the
accompanying Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus to
"Indenture" shall be amended to refer to such Third Amended
and Restated Indenture
Additional Information:

Markets Group, Inc.
General.
At December 31, 1998, the Company had outstanding
indebtedness totalling $165.602 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 December 31, 1998
excluding subordinated notes payable after one year was equal
to $164.905 billion.
Consolidated Ratio of Earning to Fixed Charges.
The information contained in the Prospectus under the caption
"Consolidated Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges" is hereby
amended in its entirety, as follows:
Year Ended December 31,
1994 1995 1996 1997 1998
1.63 1.51 1.53 1.48 1.50
For purposes of computing the consolidated ratio of earnings
to fixed charges, earnings consist of net earnings adjusted
for the provision for income taxes, minority interest and
fixed charges. 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.
