Tenders will be received at Federal Reserve Banks and Branches and at the Bureau of the Public Debt, Washington, D.C. 20226, up to the closing hour, 1:30 p.m., Eastern Daylight Saving time, Tuesday, Septem ber 28, 1976. Noncompetitive tenders will be considered timely if postmarked no later than Monday, September 27. Each tender must state the face amount of notes bid for, which must be $1,000 or a multiple thereof, and the yield desired, except that in the case of noncompetitive tenders the term “noncompetitive” should be used in lieu of a yield. In the case of competitive tenders, the yield must be expressed in terms of an annual yield, with two decimals, e.g., 7.11. Fractions may not be used. Non competitive tenders from any one bidder may not exceed $500,000. 2. Commercial banks, which for this purpose are defined as banks accepting demand deposits, and dealers who make primary markets in Government securities and report daily to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York their positions with respect to Government securities and borrowings thereon, may submit tenders for account of customers provided the names of the customers are set forth in such tenders. Others will not be permitted to submit tenders except for their own account. Tenders will be received without deposit from banking institutions for their own account, Federallyinsured savings and loan associations, States, political subdivisions or instrumentalities thereof, public pension and retirement and other public funds, international organizations in which the United States holds member ship, foreign central banks and foreign States, dealers who make primary markets in Government securities and report daily to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York their positions with respect to Government securities and borrowings thereon, and Government accounts. Tenders from others must be accompanied by payment of 5 percent of the face amount of notes applied for. (Over) 3. Immediately after the closing hour tenders will be opened, following which public announcement will be made by the Department of the Treasury of the amount and yield range of accepted bids. Those submitting competitive tenders will be advised of the acceptance or rejection thereof. In considering the acceptance of tenders, those with the lowest yields will be accepted to the extent required to attain the amount offered. Tenders at the highest accepted yield will be prorated if necessary. After a determination is made as to which tenders are accepted, a coupon rate will be determined at a 1/8 of one percent increment that translates into an average accepted price close to 100.000 and a lowest accepted price above 98.750. That rate of interest will be paid on all of the notes. Based on such interest rate, the price on each competitive tender allotted will be determined and each successful competitive bidder will be required to pay the price corresponding to the yield bid. Price calculations will be carried to three decimal places on the basis of price per hundred, e.g., 99.923, and the determinations of the Secretary of the Treasury shall be final. The Secretary of the Treasury expressly reserves the right to accept or reject any or all tenders, in whole or in part, including the right to accept tenders for more or less than the $2,500,000,000 of notes offered, and his action in any such respect shall be final. Subject to these reservations, noncompetitive tenders for $500,000 or less without stated yield from any one bidder will be accepted in full at the average price1 (in three decimals) of accepted competitive tenders. 4. If the interest rate determined in accordance with this circular is identical to the rate on an outstanding issue of United States notes, and the terms and condi tions of such outstanding issue are otherwise identical to terms and conditions of the securities offered herein, this invitation shall be deemed to be an invitation for an additional amount of the outstanding securities and this circular will be amended accordingly. Payment for the securities in that event will be calculated on the basis of the auction price determined in accordance with this circular plus accrued interest from the last preceding interest payment date on the outstanding securities. IV. PAYMENT 1. Settlement for accepted tenders in accordance with the bids must be made or completed on or before 1Average price may be at, or more or less than 100.000.
