FRIDAY, MARCH 30, 1984

IN CONSIDERING TENDERS, THE SPOKESMAN CONTINUED, THOSE OFFERING THE HIGHEST PRICES WILL BE ACCEPTED TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED TO ATTAIN THE AMOUNT REQUIRED. THE ISSUE PRICE OF THE BONDS WILL BE THE LOWEST OFFERED PRICE ACCEPTED BY GOVERNMENT. FOR EXAMPLE IF $0.5 BILLION WORTH OF BONDS WERE TENDERED AT $52 500, ANOTHER $0.5 BILLION AT $52 000 AND A FURTHER $0.5 BILLION AT $51 500, THE LOWEST OFFER ACCEPTED TO ATTAIN A TOTAL ISSUE OF $1 BILLION OF BONDS WOULD BE $52 000. TENDERS AT $52 500 AND $52 000 WOULD THEREFORE RECEIVE ALLOCATION AND THOSE AT $51 500 WOULD BE REJECTED. ALL SUCCESSFUL TENDERERS WOULD PAY $52 000 FOR EACH BOND ALLOCATED TO THEM.

**REFUNDS TO UNSUCCESSFUL TENDERERS AND THOSE WHO RECEIVE A PARTIAL ALLOCATION WILL BE BY CHEQUE. INTEREST PAYMENTS WILL BE MADE HALF-YEARLY ON APRIL 9 AND OCTOBER 9, AND THE BONDS WILL BE REPAID AT PAR ON APRIL 9, 1989.
