RJR NABISCO COMMENTS ON LEBOW/ICAHN ADVERTISEMENT
NEW YORK, NEW YORK -- January 22, 1996 -- RJR Nabisco said that an
advertisement placed by Bennett LeBow's Brooke Group in today's edition of The
New York Times is "a hysterical attempt to misrepresent the company's position
on a spin-off of its Nabisco food business."
"Mr. LeBow knows full well that RJR Nabisco is committed to a
spin-off of Nabisco -- as soon as it can be accomplished in a manner
consistent with the company's commitments and does not jeopardize the
financial interests of our shareholders," the company said. "His attempts to
misrepresent the company's position won't work because RJR Nabisco's position
is perfectly clear: we want to accomplish a spin-off when it can be done
successfully, in the best interests of our shareholders and consistent with
the company's commitments."
