2. Tenders should be forw arded in an envelope clearly addressed to this bank or appropriate branch as Fiscal A gent of the

3. Any qualified or conditional tender will be rejected.
4. If a corporation makes the tender, th e form should be signed by an officer of the corporation authorized to m ake the
