Additional Information:
General.
At December 31, 1999, the Company had outstanding indebtedness
totalling $191.935 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, 1999 excluding subordinated notes
payable after one year was equal to $191.237 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,
1995 1996 1997 1998 1999
1.51 1.53 1.48 1.50 1.60
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.
Plan of Distribution:
The Notes are being purchased by Salomon Smith Barney Inc. and
Lehman Brothers Inc. (the "Underwriters"), as principal, at
99.492% of the aggregate principal amount less an underwriting
discount equal to 0.325% of the principal amount of the
Notes.
The Company has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against
certain liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
