HERA AUTHORIZED PURCHASE OF OBLIGATIONS NOT PROVIDE AN INSURANCE POLICY

FROM THE FEDERAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ADVISORY BOARD

QUOTE: “This area generated the most discussion because it was part of the overall liquidity agreement. In return for the senior preferred stock and common stock warrants, Treasury agreed to provide up to $100 billion ($100 B) to each GSE based upon quarterly payments if liabilities exceed assets. After significant internal Treasury discussions, it was concluded that this looked like a guarantee or insurance policy page 18

As a result, different components of the agreement are treated as either entity or nonentity transactions (Please refer to the attached Treasury letter dated August 24, 1998 for related details).

The Charter

The Treasury was authorized by Congress a limit of $2.25 billion to purchase obligations. The $2.25 billion was the explicit obligation. Page 14

NOTE: to purchase obligations NOT A $200 billion line of credit ( Insurance Policy) attached to the Senior Preferred Stock.

The amount was increased by Congress in the Charter Act that was amended by HERA to purchase obligations but only under emergency conditions, no emergency existed. Page 16

The amount today $200 billion as of December 24, 2009, expired on December 31, 2009: and no more. The $200 billion commitment ( Insurance Policy) was forced on the GSEs by the FHFA / Treasury by the illegal contract the SPSPA. The GSEs never needed a capital infusion, both Fannie and Freddie were adequately capitalized.
