                                   government securities dealers (one

                                   but not less than exactly the Index
                                   Maturity and for the noncallable
                                   U.S. Treasury Note that is nearest

                                   shall calculate the Constant

                                   Notes selected.  If the Calculation
                                   Agent cannot obtain three such
                                   adjusted quotations, the Constant

                                   Interest Determination Date will be
                                   the arithmetic mean of all such
                                   quotations, or if only one such
                                   quotation is obtained, such
                                   quotation, obtained by the
                                   Calculation Agent.  In all events,
                                   the Calculation Agent shall continue
                                   polling dealers until at least one

                                   which interest has been paid with
                                   respect to any Note will be
                                   calculated by multiplying the face
                                   amount of such Note by an accrued
                                   Interest Factor.  This accrued

                                   dividing the interest rate
                                   applicable to such day by the actual
                                   number of days in the applicable

                                Taxation

     The following discussion of the United States federal income tax
consequences of the ownership of the Notes supplements, and to the extent
inconsistent with replaces, the discussion under the caption "Taxation" in the
Prospectus Supplement dated October 8, 1993.  Terms not defined herein have
the same meanings as in the Prospectus Supplement.

     This discussion is based on regulations concerning the treatment of debt
instruments issued with original issue discount (the "OID Regulations") and
related provisions of the Code.  The OID Regulations are effective for Notes
issued on or after April 4, 1994.  

     Under Section 1.1275-5 of the OID Regulations, as under the Proposed OID
Regulations, the Notes will be treated as variable rate debt instruments and
will not bear original issue discount.  As a result, interest on a Note will
be taxable to a United States Holder as ordinary income at the time that it is
received or accrued, depending on the United States Holder's method of
accounting.  While the OID Regulations have amended many provisions of the
Proposed OID Regulations, such amendments are not relevant to the Notes.<PAGE>
