Response of the Office of Chief Counsel
Division of Corporation Finance

Re:

Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac)
Incoming letter dated July 18, 2008

Based on the facts presented, where Freddie Mac issues a debt security or a mortgage-related security in the manner described in your letter and such issuance creates an obligation that would require the filing of a Form 8-K under Item 2.03, we will not recommend enforcement action if, rather than filing the Form 8-K, Freddie Mac includes the required disclosure in its offering circular and supplement to the offering circular for the issuance of the security and those documents are posted on its web site within the timing requirements of Rule 424 under the Securities Act of 1933. Terms are as defined in your letter.

Because this position is based upon the representations made to the Division in your letter, it should be noted that any different facts or conditions might require a different conclusion.

Sincerely,

Carolyn Sherman
Special Counsel
