(a)  NASSCO will make a minimum deposit of at least $10 million (and may deposit
as much as $37 million) upon this Addendum No. 1 becoming effective on September
__, 1988. As indicated on Schedule B, 'Program Objectives', NASSCO estimates
that approximately $70 million will be received as profit on the sale of vessels
listed on Schedule A and could be employed in meeting Schedule B objectives. 
Thus NASSCO anticipates that a substantial additional amount, perhaps in the 
neighborhood of $30 million to $40 million, may be deposited. In addition, of 
course, interest income will accrue on amounts on deposit.
