Freddie Mac issues 2010 Funding Calendars

Freddie Mac has issued its 2010 Funding Calendars, which provide optional announcement dates for Reference Notes securities and announcement and auction dates for Reference Bills securities. On the Reference Notes announcement dates set forth on Freddie Mac's 2010 Reference Notes Calendar, Freddie Mac will announce whether it plans to issue a Reference Notes security. If a Reference Notes security will be issued, Freddie Mac will also provide relevant transaction information. Freddie Mac's 2010 Reference Bills Calendar provides announcement and auction dates for one-, three-, six- and 12-month Reference Bills securities. One-month Reference Bills auctions will be optional each week, with a minimum of one auction per month. Three- and six-month Reference Bills will be auctioned every week. Auctions of 12-month Reference Bills securities will be optional each week. During the year, Freddie Mac will auction all one-, three-, six- and 12-month Reference Bills securities on Mondays unless Monday is a holiday. If Monday is a holiday, the auction will occur on Tuesday. Reference Bills auction announcements occur at 10:30 a.m., Eastern Time, on Fridays. The announcement is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation to buy any of these securities. Any such offering will be made by an offering circular and pricing supplement.
