On May 9, 2016, notice was provided to investors that National Rural Utilities Cooperative Finance Corporation will redeem an aggregate principal amount of $86.6 million of its InterNotes® on June 15, 2016.

The principal and accrued interest at the redemption date will be paid with a combination of cash on hand and other sources of liquidity including the issuance of short-term debt.

Certain comments made in this Form 8-K are forward-looking. Such statements are based on certain assumptions regarding future business and financial performance, describe our future plans, strategies and expectations and are generally identified by our use of words such as “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “expects” and similar expressions. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such statements are based on reasonable assumptions, actual results and performance could materially differ. Information regarding the factors which could cause actual results to materially differ is included in our annual and quarterly reports previously filed with the SEC. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or publicly release any revisions to forward-looking statements to reflect events, circumstances or changes in expectations after the date on which the statement is made.
