ADJUSTMENT TO THE INTEREST RATE
Beginning (a) on the first day following a Failed Acquisition Date or (b)
if the Acquisition has not closed by December 31, 1999, on January 1, 2000, the
Interest Rate specified above will increase to 6.61% per annum. If the Interest
Rate has been so increased, then, if applicable, upon the first day following
the completion of the Acquisition, the Interest Rate will reduce to 5.86% per
annum.
A "Failed Acquisition Date" is the earliest public announcement by The CIT
Group Inc. or Newcourt Credit Group Inc. that (a) the Acquisition will not
occur, (b) either party has failed to receive the necessary shareholder approval
for the Acquisition, or (c) either party has failed to receive the necessary
regulatory approvals for the Acquisition. "Acquisition" means the acquisition of
Newcourt by The CIT Group Inc. announced March 8, 1999.
See "Recent Developments" in the accompanying prospectus. No determination
has been made whether The CIT Group Inc. will guarantee or support the
obligations of either AT&T Capital or Newcourt. Therefore, investors should not
expect that The CIT Group Inc. will guarantee or support the obligations of
either AT&T Capital or Newcourt.
