                          UNDERWRITING

     Lehman Brothers Inc. (the "Underwriter") is acting as
     principal in this transaction.

     Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in a Terms
     Agreement dated February 14, 1995 (the "Terms Agreement"),
     between the Corporation and the Underwriter, incorporating
     the terms of a Selling Agency Agreement dated May 12, 1994,
     between the Corporation and Lehman Brothers, Lehman Brothers
     Inc., CS First Boston Corporation, Goldman, Sachs & Co.,
     Merrill Lynch & Co., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith
     Incorporated, Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, and UBS
     Securities Inc., the Corporation has agreed to sell to the
     Underwriter, and the Underwriter has agreed to purchase, the
     aggregate principal amount of the Notes equal to
     $100,000,000.

     Under the terms and conditions of the Terms Agreement, the
     Underwriter is committed to take and pay for all of the
     Notes, if any are taken.

     The Underwriter has advised the Corporation that it proposes
     to offer the Notes for sale from time to time in one or more
     transactions (which may include block transactions), in
     negotiated transactions or otherwise, or a combination of
     such methods of sale, at market prices prevailing at the
     time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market
     prices or at negotiated prices.  The Underwriter may effect
     such transactions by selling the Notes to or through
     dealers, and such dealers may receive compensation in the
     form of underwriting discounts, concessions or commissions
     from the Underwriter and/or the purchasers of the Notes for
     whom it may act as agent.  In connection with the sale of
     the Notes, the Underwriter may be deemed to have received
     compensation from the Corporation in the form of
     underwriting discounts, and the Underwriter may also receive
     commissions from the purchasers of the Notes for whom it may
     act as agent.  The Underwriter and any dealers that
     participate with the Underwriter in the distribution of the
     Notes may be deemed to be underwriters, and any discounts or
     commissions received by them and any profit on the resale of
     the Notes by them may be deemed to be underwriting discounts
     or commissions.

     The Notes are a new issue of securities with no established
     trading market.  The Corporation currently has no intention
     to list the Notes on any securities exchange.  The
     Corporation has been advised by the Underwriter that it

     intends to make a market in the Notes but is not obligated
     to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time
     without notice.  No assurance can be given as to the
     liquidity of the trading market for the Notes.

     The Corporation has agreed to indemnify the Underwriter
     against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the
     Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
