TREASURY TO AUCTION $3,000 MILLION OF 5-YEAR 2-MONTH NOTES

To All Banking Institutions, and Others Concerned,
in the Second Federal Reserve District:
The following statement was issued yesterday by the Treasury Department:
The Department o f the Treasury will auction $3,000 million o f 5-year 2-month notes to raise new cash.
Additional amounts o f the notes may be issued to Federal Reserve Banks as agents for foreign and international
monetary authorities at the average price o f accepted competitive tenders.

Printed on the reverse side is a table summarizing the highlights o f the offering. Copies o f the official
offering circular will be furnished upon request directed to our Government Bond Division (Tel. N o.
212-791-6619). In addition, enclosed is a copy o f the form to be used in submitting tenders.
This Bank will receive tenders up to 1:30 p.m ., Eastern Standard time, Wednesday, December 3, 1980,
at the Securities Department o f its Head O ffice and at its Buffalo Branch. A ll com petitive tenders, whether
transmitted by mail or by other means, must reach this Bank or its Branch by that time. However, for
investors who wish to submit noncompetitive tenders and who find it more convenient to mail their tenders
than to present them in person, the official offering circular provides that noncompetitive tenders will be
considered timely received if they are mailed to this Bank or its Branch under a postmark no later than

Decem ber 2.
Bidders submitting noncompetitive tenders should realize that it is possible that the average price may
be above par, in which case they would have to pay more than the face value for the securities.
Payment with a tender may be in the form o f a personal check, which need not be certified, an official
bank check, or a Federal funds check (a check drawn by a depository institution on its Federal Reserve
account). All checks must be drawn payable to the Federal Reserve Bank o f New York; checks endorsed to
this Bank will not be accepted . Payment may also be made in cash or in Treasury securities maturing on or
before the issue date o f the securities being purchased.
Recorded messages provide information about Treasury offerings and about auction results: at the
Head O ffice — Tel. N o. 212-791-7773 (offerings) and Tel. N o. 212-791-5823 (results); at the Buffalo
Branch — Tel. N o. 716-849-5046. Additional inquiries regarding this offering may be made by calling, at
the Head O ffice, Tel. N o. 212-791-6619, or, at the Buffalo Branch, Tel. N o. 716-849-5016.

bid for.

2.

Each tender must state the face amount of securities

The minimum bid is $1,000 and larger bids must be in

Competitive tenders must also show the

decimals, e.g., 7.11%.

Common fractions may not be used.

Noncompetitive tenders must show the term "noncompetitive" on the
tender form in lieu of a specified yield.

No bidder may submit

more than one noncompetitive tender and the amount may not exceed
$ 1 , 000, 000.
3. 3.

All bidders must certify that they have not made and

will not make any agreements for the sale or purchase of any
securities of this issue prior to the deadline established in
Section 3.1. for receipt of tenders.

Those authorized to submit

tenders for the account of customers will be required to certify




that such tenders are submitted under the same conditions, agree­
ments, and certifications as tenders submitted directly by
bidders for their own account.
3.

4.

Commercial banks, which for this purpose are defined

as banks accepting demand deposits, and primary dealers, which
for this purpose are defined as dealers who make primary markets
in Government securities and report daily to the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York their positions in and borrowings on such
securities, may submit tenders for account of customers if the
names of the customers and the amount for each customer are
furnished.
Others are only permitted to submit tenders for their
own account.
3.

5.

Tenders will be received without deposit for their

own account from commercial banks and other banking institutions;
primary dealers, as defined above? Federally-insured savings and
loan associations; States, and their political subdivisions or
instrumentalities? public pension and retirement and other public
funds; international organizations in which the United States
holds membership; foreign central banks and foreign states;
Federal Reserve Banks; and Government accounts.

Tenders from

others must be accompanied by full payment for the amount of
securities applied for (in the form of cash, maturing Treasury
securities, or readily collectible checks), or by a payment
guarantee of 5 percent of the face amount applied for, from a
commercial bank or a primary dealer.
3.

6.

Immediately after the closing hour, tenders will be

opened, followed by a public announcement of the amount and yield
range of accepted bids.

Subject to the reservations expressed in

Section 4, noncompetitive tenders will be accepted in full, and
then competitive tenders will be accepted, starting with those at
the lowest yields, through successively higher yields to the
extent required to attain the amount offered.

Tenders at the

highest accepted yield will be prorated if necessary.

After the

determination is made as to which tenders are accepted, a coupon
rate will be established, on the basis of a 1/8 of one percent
increment, which results in an equivalent average accepted price
close to 100.000 and a lowest accepted price above the original
issue discount limit of 98.750.



That rate of interest will be

-4 paid on all of the securities.

Based on such interest rate, the

price on each competitive tender allotted will be determined and
each successful competitive bidder will be required to pay the
price equivalent to the yield bid.

Those submitting

noncompetitive tenders will pay the price equivalent to the
weighted average yield of accepted competitive tenders.

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.

If the amount of

noncompetitive tenders received would absorb all or most of the
offering, competitive tenders will be accepted in an amount
sufficient to provide a fair determination of the yield.

Tenders

received from Government accounts and Federal Reserve Banks will
be accepted at the price equivalent to the weighted average yield
of accepted competitive tenders.
3.

7.

Competitive bidders will be advised of the acceptance

or rejection of theirv tenders.

Those submitting noncompetitive

tenders will only be notified if the tender is not accepted in
full, or when the price is over par.

The Secretary of the Treasury expressly reserves the

right to accept or reject any or all tenders in whole or in part,
to allot more or less than the amount of securities specified in
Section 1, and to make different percentage allotments to various

public interest.

The Secretary’s action under this Section is
