Bob,

The following story suggests a lower interest rate than was contemplated on the thread. How does this translate into a face amount? Today is the day of the offering:

NEW YORK, May 5 (Reuters) - Internet companies are drawing
investors like jungle mosquitoes, and Tuesday's expected junk
bond offering from Amazon.com Inc. embodies both the risk and
potential reward offered by the sector, sources said.
Amazon is expected to sell $275 million (proceeds) in
10-year senior discount notes with a five-year zero coupon via
Morgan Stanley Dean Witter, sources said. Price talk is 10
percent to 10-1/4 percent, sources said.

The company is an online retailer of books and music. Last
month it posted fourth-quarter revenues of more than $87
million, exceeding Wall Street expectations.
