Printed on the reverse side is a table summarizing the highlights of the offering. Copies of the official
offering circular will be furnished upon request directed to our Government Bond Division (Tel. No.
212-791-6619).
Enclosed is a copy of a standard form for your use in submitting tenders for this offering.
This Bank will receive tenders prior to 1:00 p.m., Eastern Standard time, Wednesday, January 23,
1985, at the Securities Department of its Head Office and at its Buffalo Branch. A ll competitive 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 January 22.
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 made in cash, by check, in Treasury securities maturing on or before the
issue date of the securities being purchased, by a charge to an institution’s reserve account at this Bank, or,
in the case of Treasury Tax and Loan Note Option Depositaries, by credit to a Treasury Tax and Loan Note
Account. Payment by check must be in the form of an official bank check, a Federal funds check (a check
drawn by a depository institution on its Federal Reserve account), or a personal check, which need not be
certified. All checks must be drawn payable to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York; checks endorsed to
this Bank will not be accepted.
Recorded messages provide information about Treasury offerings and about auction results: at the
Head Office — Tel. No. 212-791-7773 (offerings) and Tel. No. 212-791-5823 (results); at the Buffalo
