SUBSCRIPTIONS HANDLED THROUGH OUT-OF-DISTRICT CORRESPONDENT BANKS

Commercial banks are urged to enter subscriptions for their own account and for account of their

subscribing banks agree that by their action they certify that they have no beneficial interest in any
subscriptions they enter for the account of their customers, and that their customers have no beneficial
interest in the banks’ subscriptions for their own account; that the subscriptions for their own account
do not exceed the prescribed limitations; and that the subscribing banks and their customers have agreed
not to purchase or sell, or to make any agreements with respect to the purchase or sale or other disposition
of any notes subscribed for until after midnight February 6, 1961.
