Schedule of Fees for Definitive Securities

    The fee schedule for the issuance of a definitive security is as 
follows: a fee of $50 will be charged for each definitive security 
issued on a transfer, reissue, exchange or withdrawal from book-entry 
form, or as a result of the granting of relief on account of loss, 
theft, destruction, mutilation or defacement. Payment of the fee must 
accompany the request for the issue of securities in physical form. If 
a request results in the issuance of more than one security, the amount 
of the fee is arrived at by multiplying the number of pieces requested 
by $50. The fee announced above applies beginning January 2, 1996.

Schedule of Fees for TREASURY DIRECT Securities Accounts

    The fee schedule for TREASURY DIRECT securities accounts is as 
follows: each TREASURY DIRECT securities account holding Treasury 
bonds, notes and bills, pursuant to 31 CFR Part 357, that exceeds 
$100,000 in par amount will be charged an annual maintenance fee in the 
amount of $25. For 1996, this will be imposed on accounts exceeding 
$100,000 in par amount as of May 17, 1996. The determination as to what 
accounts are subject to the fee shall be made annually. Each account 
holder will be individually billed.

    Dated: December 7, 1995.

Acting Commissioner of the Public Debt.
