The coupon rate for the notes will be determined after tenders are allotted. Additional amounts of the notes may be issued at the average price of accepted tenders to Government accounts and to Federal Reserve Banks for themselves and as agents of foreign and international monetary authorities. The notes will be dated April 8 , 1975, rather than April 14, 1975, as had been tentatively projected by the Treasury late last month. The notes will be Treasury Notes of Series N-1976, dated April 8 , 1975, due November 30, 1976 (CUSIP No. 912827 EJ7) with interest payable on a semiannual basis on November 30, 1975, and May 31 and November 30, 1976. They will be issued in registered and bearer form in denominations of $5,000, $10,000, $100,000 and $1,000,000, and they will be available for issue in book-entry form. Delivery of bearer notes will be made on or about April 14, 1975. A purchaser of bearer notes may elect to receive an interim certificate on April 8 , which shall be a bearer security exchangeable at face value for Treasury Notes of Series N-1976 when available. Payment for the notes may not be made through tax and loan accounts. Tenders will be received up to 1:30 p.m., Eastern Daylight Saving time, Tuesday, April 1, at any Federal Reserve Bank or Branch and at the Bureau of the Public Debt, Washington, D. C. 20226; provided, however, that noncompetitive tenders will be considered timely received if they are mailed to any such agency under a postmark no later than Monday, March 31. Each tender must be in the amount of $5,000 or a multiple thereof, and all tenders must state the yield desired, if a competitive tender, or the term “noncompetitive”, if a noncompetitive tender. Fractions may not be used in tenders. The notation “TENDER FOR TREASURY NOTES” should be printed at the bottom of envelopes in which tenders are submitted. Competitive tenders must be expressed in terms of annual yield in two decimal places, e.g., 6.45, and not in terms of a price. Tenders at thelowest yields, and noncompetitive tenders, will be accepted to the extent required to attain the amount offered. After a determination is made as to which tenders are accepted, a coupon yield will be determined to the nearest Vs of 1 percent necessary to make the average accepted price 100.00 or less. That will be the rate of interest that 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 com petitive bidder will pay the price corresponding to the yield he 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. Tenders at a yield that will produce a price less than 99.751 will not be accepted. The Secretary of the Treasury expressly reserves the right to accept or reject any or all tenders, in whole or in part, and his action in any such respect shall be final. Subject to these reservations, noncom petitive tenders for $500,000 or less will be accepted in full at the average price of accepted competitive tenders, which price will be 100.00 or less. 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 the 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 commercial and other banks for their own account, Federally-insured 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 membership, foreign central banks and foreign States, dealers who make primary markets in Govern ment securities and report daily to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York their positions with respect to Government securities and borrowings thereon, Federal Reserve Banks, and Government accounts. Tenders from others must be accompanied by payment of 5 percent of the face amount of securities applied for. However, bidders who submit checks in payment on tenders submitted directly to a Federal Reserve Bank or the Treasury may find it necessary to submit full payment for the securities with their tenders in order to meet the time limits pertaining to checks as hereinafter set forth. Allotment notices will not be sent to bidders who submit noncompetitive tenders. Payment for accepted tenders must be completed on or before Tuesday, April 8 , 1975, at the Federal Reserve Bank or Branch or at the Bureau of the Public Debt in cash, in other funds immediately available to the Treasury by April 8 , or by check drawn to the order of the Federal Reserve Bank to which the tender is submitted, or the United States Treasury if the tender is submitted to it, which must be received at such Bank or at the Treasury no later than: (1) Thursday, April 3, 1975, if the check is drawn on a bank in the Federal Reserve District of the Bank to which the check is submitted, or the Fifth Federal Reserve District in case of the Treasury, or (2) Wednesday, April 2, 1975, if the check is drawn on a bank in another district. Checks received after the dates set forth in the preceding sentence will not be accepted unless they are payable at a Federal Reserve Bank. Where full payment is not completed on time, the allotment will be canceled and the deposit with the tender up to 5 percent of the amount of securities allotted will be subject to forfeiture to the United States. The terms of the offering are set forth in Treasury Department Circular No. 11-75, Public Debt Series, dated March 26, 1975, a copy of which is printed on the following pages. This Bank will receive tenders up to 1:30 p.m., Eastern Daylight Saving time, Tuesday, April 1, 1975, at the Securities Department of its Head Office and at its Buffalo Branch; provided, however, that noncompetitive tenders will be considered timely received if they are mailed to this Bank or its Branch under a postmark no later than March 31, 1975.
