COMPANY'S OFFICES-
8 CASTLE STREET, EDINBURGH.
THE Company issues Debentures for Fixed Periods. Rates of Interest and
other particulars can be obtained at the Company's Offices.
The Interest is made payable half-yearly, at Whitsunday and Martinmas, at
the Offices of the Company's Bankers in Scotland and London.
The Funds of the Company are invested as a first charge on Heritable Property
in the United States of America. Loans are limited in amount to half the value
of the security therefor.
The Debentures are amply secured by (1) the Reserve Fund ; (2) the
Uncalled Capital not paid up, being the limit of the Company's Borrowing
Powers ; and (3) the Investments in Mortgages on Heritable and Real Estate
in the United States.
The Debentures are issued free of expense, and are assignable by a short
Form of Assignation.
