ITEM 5. OTHER
AFLAC Incorporated announced on September 19, 2000, that it has filed a
shelf registration statement with Japanese regulatory authorities for the
issuance of up to 100 billion yen (approximately $930 million at the current
exchange rate) of yen-denominated (Samurai) bonds. The shelf registration is
effective for a two-year period.
AFLAC anticipates that it will use the net proceeds of any issuance of
the yen-denominated bonds to repurchase its common shares, or for general
corporate purposes.
The securities to be issued through the above-referenced shelf
registration will not be registered in the United States and will not be
offered or sold to U.S. investors absent compliance with the registration
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 or an available exemption from
the registration requirements thereof.
