Its cash in banks and on hand in the United States declined from $9,340,100 at Dec. 31. 1941, to $5,491,600 at June 30, 1942. With respect to $2,349,000 of such debenture bonds (which were purchased pursuant to the credit from the Export-Import Bank of Washington previously reported to stockholders), the corporation has the right, of which it has not yet availed itself, to borrow from the Export-Import Bank 50'4 of the face amount, or $1,174,500. The corporation may borrow under the ExportImport Bank credit only up to 50% of the face amount of debenture bonds purchased and only at prices approved by the Export-Import Bank. Any amount in excess of 50(4 must be paid out of the corpo¬ ration's own funds not necessary for other purposes. The corporation's bond-buying program is therefore limited by the necessary approval of the Export-Import Bank as to the price to be paid and by the amount of the corporation's own funds which can be made available for the purpose over and above its other requirements.. Subsequent to June 30, 1942, the corporation has purchased, pursuant to the Export-Import Bank credit, at a cost of $509,100, an additional $893,000 in face amount of its debenture bonds.

A. O'Connor for the purchase of 7,500 shares of the common capital stock of company's subsidiary. Under date of April 1, 1942, the company, as a part of a program to simplify its corporate structure by eliminating its subsidiary (The Magnavox Co., Inc.), acquired all of the property and assets of the latter. The purchase was on the basis of the book value of the prop¬ erty and assets, which, after deducting the liabilities of the subsidiary which were assumed, amounted to $924,488, and the said sum is to be paid on or before April 1, 1943, with interest at the rate of 3% per annum. In addition thereto, the company assumed all the subsidiary's uncompleted contracts. • It is planned to dissolve the subsidiary corporation as soon as the legal requirements of the State of Indiana can be fulfilled. Directors deemed it advisable and in the best interests of the company to acquire the stock of the subsidiary which was owned by minority shareholders and likewise make disposition of an outstanding option for the purchase of 7,500 shares of the common stock of the subsidiary which had been issued to R. A. O'Connor and which was assumed by the company at the time of the purchase of the said property and assets. The said option was issued to R. A.
