General.


At September 30, 2004, the Company had outstanding indebtedness totaling $320.210 billion, consisting of notes payable within one year, senior notes payable after one year and subordinated notes payable after one year. The total amount of outstanding indebtedness at September 30, 2004, excluding subordinated notes payable after one year was equal to $319.393 billion.

For purposes of computing the consolidated ratio of earnings to fixed charges, earnings consist of net earnings adjusted for the provision for income taxes, minority interest and fixed charges. Fixed charges consist of interest and discount on all indebtedness and one-third of rentals, which the Company believes is a reasonable approximation of the interest factor of such rentals.

Plan of Distribution:

The Notes are being purchased by Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (the "Underwriter"), as principal, at 99.923% of the aggregate principal amount less an underwriting discount equal to 0.100% of the principal amount of the Notes.

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