is anticipated,
be used in connection with construc¬

It is presently esti¬

To finance so much
of such expenditures as cannot be met

present financ ng and
current earnings, the company has secured
from
Bank
of
America
Nat.onal

Association an
agreement to xoan to tne company additional funds aggregating not
more
than
$2,500,000.
Under
this agreement the

may,
commencing 12 montirs after the sale of the securities now offered,

the transactions complained
of
involve dealings between
Universal and a subsidiary corporation,
and corporations controlled by Mr. Birrell.
Following these transac¬
tions in February of
this year, Mr. Birrell and certain of his asso¬

acquired control of Universal.
In August of this year, the
Birrell group retired in favor of Mr. Gotthilf and his associates, who,
according to the complaint, are now in control of the corporation.
As part of the transaction by which the Gotthilf group acquired con¬

Universal
bought from Gotthilf 3,000 shares of Smico,
