Ladies and Gentlemen:

     1. Purchase of Shares. I hereby subscribe to (not less than 20 Units nor 
more than any limit on Units as that is imposed from time to time, together with
Units subscribed to by a trustee or custodian of my individual retirement
account) ______ Units, each consisting of 1 share of United Parcel Service of 
America, Inc ("UPS") Common Stock subscribed to from UPS and 1/4 share of
Overseas Partners Ltd ("OPL") Common Stock subscribed to from OPL, except as may
be provided below. If such number of Units is not evenly divisible by four, UPS
and OPL may, at their option, (i) reject this subscription in full; (ii) notify
me and allow me to remit such additional amount as necessary to equal the
aggregate price of an integral multiple of four Units; or (iii) fulfill this
subscription for the purchase of the maximum number of Units wholly divisible by
four for which payment has been received and refund any excess monies to me.

     I enclose a check or money order payable to the order of "First Union 
National Bank" as Transfer Agent in the amount of $__________, which equals the 
product of the number of Units subscribed to hereby multiplied by the sum of 
(i) the Current Price of a UPS share (as determined from the most recent UPS
Shareowners Letter) and (ii) one-fourth of the Current Price of an OPL share
(i.e. one-fourth of the net book value of an OPL's share as determined from
OPL's most recently published Annual Report to Shareowners).

     2. Election. In the event that UPS and OPL determine, in their discretion,
that there are not enough UPS or OPL shares available to satisfy my subscription
for such shares contained in the Units, I hereby authorize UPS and OPL to do the
following:(please check one box)

     [_]  Substitute for such unavailable shares, to the fullest extent
          possible, any available shares having a value equal to or less than 
          the amount I have remitted, and return the remainder (without
          interest) to me.

     [_]  Fulfill my subscription to the fullest extent possible with available 
          Units and return the subscription amount intended for the Units which
          are currently unavailable (without interest).

     [_]  Cancel my Subscription Agreement and return to me all amounts remitted
          herewith, without interest.

     3.   Authorizations and Delivery Instructions.

         (a)  I hereby authorize UPS, as my agent, to deliver the UPS shares to
              which I have subscribed (the "UPS Shares") to First Union National
              Bank ("First Union"), as Trustee of the UPS Managers Stock Trust 
              (as amended and restated), or the UPS Employees Stock Trust, as
              applicable (in either case, the "Stock Trust"), to enable the
              Trustee to hold the UPS Shares in accordance with the Stock Trust;
              and

         (b)  I hereby authorize OPL, as my agent, to deliver the OPL shares to
              which I have subscribed (the "OPL Shares") to First Union, as
              Custodian, to be held for my benefit as more fully described in
              the Prospectus.

     4.   Further Provisions.  I further acknowledge and agree that:

         (a)  My subscription is not subject to transfer or assignment by me;
         (b)  UPS and OPL each have the right, in their discretion, to accept 
              or reject my subscription;
         (c)  My subscription will become binding upon UPS and OPL only upon 
              acceptance by both UPS and OPL;
         (d)  My rights with respect to refund of funds held by First Union
              pending delivery of shares, withdrawal or rejection of my 
              subscription are as set forth in the Prospectus, and will not 
              include interest thereon;
         (e)  The Units to which I have subscribed will be sold to me at the 
              Current Prices in effect at the time my subscription is accepted
              by both UPS and OPL, which may be greater or less than the Current
              Prices in effect at the date of this Subscription Agreement, and 
              any rights with respect to a change in the price of Units are as
              set forth in the Prospectus;
         (f)  Upon acceptance by both UPS and OPL, this Subscription Agreement
              shall be binding upon and share to the benefit of my heirs,
              executors, administrators and personal representatives;
         (g)  I have read the Prospectus, and I am familiar with its terms;    
         (h)  If I have not yet executed and delivered to UPS a UPS Managers
              Stock Trust Deposit Agreement or UPS Employees Stock Trust Deposit
              Agreement ("Deposit Agreement").  I enclose herewith a properly
              executed Deposit Agreement with respect to the UPS Shares included
              in this Subscription Agreement I understand that if a Deposit
              Agreement is not on file on my behalf, my subscription will be
              rejected by UPS, and
         (i)  This Subscription Agreement will be deemed to be a subscription
              to UPS as to the UPS Shares and a subscription to OPL as to the
              OPL Shares.
