PROSPECTUS.

This Company is formed for the purpose of building and
repairing men-of-war and merchant vessels of every de-
scription (especially ironclad frigates, corvettes, gunboats,
steam and other vessels), also for constructing dockyards
in the well-known port of Kiel.
The capital of the Company is ten million of thalers, of
which the first issue is one-half, viz., five million thalers,
in 25,000 Shares of 200 thalers, or £3O each. The Company
is empowered to commence operationsas soon as the fourth
part of the first issue of shares is subscribed. The capital
will be called up according to the progress of the works.
As the Company will not be able to commence work much
before the expiration of the first year, 4 per cent. interest
will be paid upon the subscribed capital for that period.
The first issue of the capital of the Company is considered
to be sufficient for the purchase of land, construction of
works, and working capital. The second issue can only be
made by a resolution to be passed by a general meeting of
the Shareholders.
The Royal Prussian Ministry of Marine has granted to
this Company the preference for the building and repairing
of all their vessels, and an order for an ironclad frigate will
be given so soon as the Company is in a position to com-
mence work.
A suitable site for the docks and ship-building works has
been purchased, and approve I of by the Royal Prussian
Ministry of Marine.
The land situated near to Altona and Kiel Railroad,
facing the town of Kiel, has been purchased on highly
advantageous terms. The town of Kiel has willingly
granted, free of charge to the Company, the right of re-
claiming a considerable portion of the harbour contiguous
to the Company's land.
