Additional Terms of the Notes
The Initial Interest Rate for the Medium-Term Notes offered by this
pricing supplement will be equal to LIBOR determined on October 15, 1998 plus
.04%.
Plan of Distribution
Under the terms of and subject to the conditions of a terms
agreement under the First Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement dated
September 3, 1998 between TMCC and Merrill Lynch & Co., Merrill Lynch, Pierce,
Fenner & Smith Incorporated ("Merrill"), Goldman, Sachs & Co., Lehman Brothers
Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated and
Salomon Smith Barney Inc (the "Agreement"), Merrill, acting as principal, has
agreed to purchase and TMCC has agreed to sell the Notes at 99.99% of their
principal amount. Merrill may resell the Notes to one or more investors or to
one or more broker-dealers (acting as principal for the purposes of resale) at
varying prices related to prevailing market prices at the time of resale, as
determined by Merrill.
Under the terms and conditions of the Agreement, Merrill is
committed to take and pay for all of the Notes offered hereby if any are
taken.
Additional Information
TMCC's long-term debt is currently rated AAA by Standard & Poor's
Rating Group, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. ("Standard &
Poor's"). In a press release dated September 29, 1998, Standard & Poor's
announced that it had placed the AAA rating of Toyota Motor Corporation
("TMC"), the ultimate parent of TMCC, on CreditWatch with negative
implications. If TMC's credit rating is lowered by Standard & Poor's, the
credit rating of TMCC, including the credit rating of Notes covered by this
Pricing Supplement, would likely be lowered to the same extent.
