General.

At September 30, 2003 the Company had outstanding indebtedness totaling $272.262 billion, consisting of notes payable within one year, senior notes payable after one year and subordinated notes payable after one year. The total amount of outstanding indebtedness at September 30, 2003 excluding subordinated notes payable after one year was equal to $271.179 billion.
