PART I—FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
 
 
 
We have been under conservatorship, with the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”) acting as conservator, since September 6, 2008. As conservator, FHFA succeeded to all rights, titles, powers and privileges of the company, and of any shareholder, officer or director of the company with respect to the company and its assets. The conservator has since provided for the exercise of certain authorities by our Board of Directors. Our directors do not have any fiduciary duties to any person or entity except to the conservator and, accordingly, are not obligated to consider the interests of the company, the holders of our equity or debt securities, or the holders of Fannie Mae MBS unless specifically directed to do so by the conservator.
 
 
We do not know when or how the conservatorship will terminate, what further changes to our business will be made during or following conservatorship, what form we will have and what ownership interest, if any, our current common and preferred stockholders will hold in us after the conservatorship is terminated or whether we will continue to exist following conservatorship. Congress and the Administration continue to consider options for reform of the housing finance system, including Fannie Mae. We are not permitted to retain more than $25 billion in capital reserves or to pay dividends or other distributions to stockholders other than the U.S. Department of the Treasury (“Treasury”). Our agreements with Treasury include covenants that significantly restrict our business activities. For additional information on the conservatorship, the uncertainty of our future, our agreements with Treasury, and recent developments relating to housing finance reform, see “Business—Conservatorship, Treasury Agreements and Housing Finance Reform” and “Business—Charter Act and Regulation” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (“2018 Form 10-K”), “Legislation and Regulation” in this report, and “Risk Factors” in both this report and our 2018 Form 10-K.
 
 
 
 
You should read this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes in this report and the more detailed information in our 2018 Form 10-K. You can find a “Glossary of Terms Used in This Report” in the MD&A of our 2018 Form 10-K.
Forward-looking statements in this report are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to significant uncertainties and changes in circumstances, as we describe in “Forward-Looking Statements.” Future events and our future results may differ materially from those reflected in our forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including those discussed in “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this report and in our 2018 Form 10-K.
Introduction
 
Fannie Mae’s mission is to provide a stable source of liquidity to support housing for low- and moderate-income Americans. We operate in the secondary mortgage market, primarily working with lenders, who originate loans to borrowers. We do not originate loans or lend money directly to borrowers in the primary mortgage market. Instead, we securitize mortgage loans originated by lenders into Fannie Mae mortgage-backed securities that we guarantee (which we refer to as Fannie Mae MBS or our MBS); purchase mortgage loans and mortgage-related securities, primarily for securitization and sale at a later date; manage mortgage credit risk; and engage in other activities that support access to credit and the supply of affordable housing. Our common stock is traded in the over-the-counter market and quoted on the OTCQB, operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc., under the ticker symbol “FNMA.”
Through our single-family and multifamily business segments, we provided $460 billion in liquidity to the mortgage market in the first nine months of 2019, which enabled the financing of approximately 2.1 million home purchases, refinancings or rental units.

Executive Summary
 
Summary of Our Financial Performance
Quarterly Condensed Consolidated Results
CHART-AC90D63B643F5FD09A8.JPG
 
 
Our net income in the third quarter of 2019 remained flat compared with the third quarter of 2018 primarily due to:
an increase in our credit-related income;
offset by a shift from fair value gains to fair value losses.
See “Consolidated Results of Operations” for more information on our financial results.

 
Year-to-Date Condensed Consolidated Results

CHART-31FD90DA633255FD9D6.JPG
 
 
The decrease in our net income in the first nine months of 2019, compared with the first nine months of 2018, was primarily driven by:
a shift from fair value gains to fair value losses; and
a decrease in net interest income;
partially offset by an increase in our credit-related income.
See “Consolidated Results of Operations” for more information on our financial results.

 
Net worth. Our net worth was $10.3 billion as of September 30, 2019. This amount reflects:
our net worth of $6.4 billion as of June 30, 2019, of which we previously expected to pay Treasury $3.4 billion as a third-quarter 2019 dividend; and
our comprehensive income of $4.0 billion for the third quarter of 2019.
As we describe in “Legislation and Regulation—Letter Agreement with Treasury,” the dividend provisions of our senior preferred stock were modified on September 27, 2019. As a result, no dividends were payable on the senior preferred stock for the third quarter of 2019, as our net worth of $6.4 billion as of June 30, 2019 was lower than the $25 billion capital reserve amount. Additionally, no dividends will be payable on the senior preferred stock for the fourth quarter of 2019, as our net worth of $10.3 billion as of September 30, 2019 was lower than $25 billion.

MD&A | Executive Summary


Net Worth, Treasury Funding and Senior Preferred Stock Dividends
Treasury has made a commitment under a senior preferred stock purchase agreement to provide funding to us under certain circumstances if we have a net worth deficit. Pursuant to the senior preferred stock purchase agreement, we issued shares of senior preferred stock to Treasury in 2008. We have paid dividends to Treasury on the senior preferred stock on a quarterly basis for every dividend period for which dividends were payable since we entered conservatorship in 2008.
Under the modified dividend provisions of the senior preferred stock described in “Legislation and Regulation—Letter Agreement with Treasury,” effective with the third quarter 2019 dividend period, we are not required to pay further dividends to Treasury until we have accumulated over $25 billion in net worth. Accordingly, no dividends were payable to Treasury for the third quarter of 2019, and none will be payable for the fourth quarter of 2019. Changes in our net worth can be significantly impacted by market conditions that affect our net interest income, fluctuations in the estimated fair value of our derivatives and other financial instruments that we mark to market through our earnings, developments that affect our loss reserves such as changes in interest rates, home prices or accounting standards, or events such as natural disasters, and other factors, as we discuss in “Risk Factors” and “Consolidated Results of Operations” in our 2018 Form 10-K and in this report.
The charts below show information about our net worth, the remaining amount of Treasury’s funding commitment to us, senior preferred stock dividends we have paid Treasury and funds we have drawn from Treasury pursuant to its funding commitment.
CHART-D77B9E1A660B6E1F0DA.JPG CHART-D91710163E0258A9AE1.JPG
(1) 
Aggregate amount of dividends we have paid to Treasury on the senior preferred stock from 2008 through September 30, 2019. Under the terms of the senior preferred stock purchase agreement, dividend payments we make to Treasury do not offset our draws of funds from Treasury.
(2) 
Aggregate amount of funds we have drawn from Treasury pursuant to the senior preferred stock purchase agreement from 2008 through September 30, 2019.
Under the modified liquidation preference provisions of the senior preferred stock described in “Legislation and Regulation—Letter Agreement with Treasury,” the aggregate liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock increased from $123.8 billion as of June 30, 2019 to $127.2 billion as of September 30, 2019 due to the $3.4 billion increase in our net worth during the second quarter of 2019. The aggregate liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock will further increase to $131.2 billion as of December 31, 2019 due to the $4.0 billion increase in our net worth during the third quarter of 2019.
For a description of the terms of the senior preferred stock purchase agreement and the senior preferred stock, see “BusinessConservatorship, Treasury Agreements and Housing Finance Reform” in our 2018 Form 10-K and “Legislation and Regulation—Letter Agreement with Treasury” in this report.
Although Treasury owns our senior preferred stock and a warrant to purchase 79.9% of our common stock and has made a commitment under the senior preferred stock purchase agreement to provide us with funds to maintain a positive net worth under specified conditions, the U.S. government does not guarantee our securities or other obligations.

MD&A | Legislation and Regulation


Legislation and Regulation
 
The information in this section updates and supplements information regarding legislative and regulatory developments affecting our business set forth in “Business—Conservatorship, Treasury Agreements and Housing Finance Reform” and “Business—Charter Act and Regulation” in our 2018 Form 10-K, as well as in “MD&A—Legislation and Regulation” in our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 (“First Quarter 2019 Form 10-Q”) and our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 (“Second Quarter 2019 Form 10-Q”). Also see “Risk Factors” in this report and in our 2018 Form 10-K for discussions of risks relating to legislative and regulatory matters.
Housing Finance Reform
In March 2019, President Trump issued a memorandum directing the Secretary of the Treasury to develop a plan for administrative and legislative reforms relating to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (collectively referred to as the “government-sponsored enterprises” or the “GSEs”), as described in our First Quarter 2019 Form 10-Q.
On September 5, 2019, Treasury released its plan to reform the housing finance system. The Treasury Housing Reform Plan (the “Treasury plan”) is far-reaching in scope and could have a significant impact on our structure, our role in the secondary mortgage market, our capitalization, our business and our competitive environment. The Treasury plan includes 49 recommended reforms—31 proposed administrative reforms and 18 proposed legislative reforms—to define a limited role for the federal government in the housing finance system, enhance taxpayer protections against future bailouts, and promote competition in the housing finance system. The Treasury plan includes recommendations relating to ending our conservatorship, amending our senior preferred stock purchase agreement with Treasury, considering additional restrictions and requirements on our business, and many other matters. While the Treasury plan states that it is Treasury’s preference and recommendation that Congress enact comprehensive housing finance reform legislation, the plan also states that “reform should not and need not wait on Congress. . . . Pending legislation, Treasury will continue to support FHFA’s administrative actions to enhance regulation of the GSEs, promote private sector competition, and satisfy the preconditions set forth in this plan for ending the GSEs’ conservatorships.”
The Treasury plan contemplates FHFA ending the conservatorships of each of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac when the GSE has met specified preconditions, which the plan recommends should include, at a minimum, that:
FHFA has prescribed regulatory capital requirements for both GSEs;
FHFA has approved the GSE’s capital restoration plan, and the GSE has retained or raised sufficient capital and other loss-absorbing capacity to operate in a safe and sound manner;
the senior preferred stock purchase agreement between Treasury and the GSE has been amended to:
require the GSE to fully compensate the federal government in the form of an ongoing payment for the ongoing support provided to the GSE under the senior preferred stock purchase agreement;
focus the GSE’s activities on its core statutory mission and otherwise tailor government support to the underlying rationale for that support;
further limit the size of the GSE’s retained mortgage portfolio;
subject the GSE to heightened prudential requirements and safety and soundness standards, including increased capital requirements, designed to prevent a future taxpayer bailout and minimize risks to financial stability; and
ensure that the risk posed by the GSE’s activities is calibrated to the amount of the remaining commitment under the senior preferred stock purchase agreement;
appropriate provision has been made to ensure there is no disruption to the market for the GSE’s MBS, including its previously-issued MBS;
FHFA, after consulting with the Financial Stability Oversight Council, has determined that the heightened prudential requirements incorporated into the amended senior preferred stock purchase agreements are, together with the requirements and restrictions imposed by FHFA in its capacity as regulator, appropriate to minimize risks to financial stability; and
any other conditions that FHFA, in its discretion, determines are necessary to ensure that the GSE would operate in a safe and sound manner after the conservatorship, including as to the GSE’s compliance with FHFA’s directives or other requirements and also as to the build out of FHFA’s supervisory function.

The Treasury plan also contemplates Treasury and FHFA adjusting Fannie Mae’s and Freddie Mac’s senior preferred stock purchase agreements with Treasury to allow each company to retain and raise capital. The Treasury plan does not specify how Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac would recapitalize but states that potential approaches to recapitalization could include one or more of the following, among other options:
eliminating all or a portion of the liquidation preference of Treasury’s senior preferred stock or exchanging all or a portion of that interest for common stock or other interests in the GSE;
adjusting the net worth sweep dividend on the senior preferred stock to allow the GSE to retain earnings in excess of the $3 billion capital reserve in effect when the Treasury plan was released, with appropriate compensation to Treasury for any deferred or forgone dividends;
issuing shares of common or preferred stock, and perhaps also convertible debt or other loss-absorbing instruments, through private or public offerings, perhaps in connection with the exercise of Treasury’s warrants for 79.9% of the GSE’s common stock;
negotiating exchange offers for one or more classes of the GSE’s existing junior preferred stock; and
placing the GSE in receivership to facilitate a restructuring of the capital structure.
The Treasury plan recommends that Treasury’s commitment to provide funding under the senior preferred stock purchase agreement should be replaced with legislation that authorizes an explicit, paid-for guarantee backed by the full faith and credit of the Federal Government that is limited to the timely payment of principal and interest on qualifying MBS. The Treasury plan further recommends that, pending legislation, even after conservatorship Treasury should maintain its ongoing commitment to support each GSE’s single-family and multifamily mortgage-backed securities through the senior preferred stock purchase agreements, as amended as contemplated by the plan.
The Treasury plan contains recommendations for legislative and administrative reforms to limit our single-family activities and restrict our multifamily footprint. For example, the plan recommends that FHFA assess whether each of our current single-family products, services and other activities, including our support for cash-out refinancings, investor loans, and higher principal balance loans, should continue to benefit from support under our senior preferred stock purchase agreement. It also recommends that FHFA and Treasury consider amendments to the senior preferred stock purchase agreement to further limit the type and volume of multifamily loans we guarantee. The Treasury plan also contains a number of other recommendations that could significantly affect our business and competitive environment if implemented. For example, the Treasury plan recommends that: FHFA conduct assessments of our single-family and multifamily underwriting criteria; FHFA and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) coordinate to identify and mitigate areas of duplication in government support for affordable housing; and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the “CFPB”) amend its ability-to-repay rule to establish a bright-line safe harbor that replaces the “qualified mortgage” patch for GSE-eligible loans.
There continues to be significant uncertainty regarding the timing, content and impact of future legislative and regulatory actions affecting us, including the enactment of housing finance reform legislation and the implementation of all or any portion of the Treasury plan. See “Risk Factors” in this report and in our 2018 Form 10-K for a description of the risks associated with our uncertain future and potential housing finance reform.
Letter Agreement with Treasury
On September 27, 2019, we, through FHFA acting on our behalf in its capacity as our conservator, and Treasury entered into a letter agreement modifying the dividend and liquidation preference provisions of the senior preferred stock held by Treasury. These modifications and other specified provisions of the letter agreement are described below.
Modification to Dividend ProvisionsIncrease in Applicable Capital Reserve Amount. The terms of the senior preferred stock provide for dividends each quarter in the amount, if any, by which our net worth as of the end of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter exceeds the applicable capital reserve amount. The letter agreement modified the dividend provisions of the senior preferred stock to increase the applicable capital reserve amount from $3 billion to $25 billion, effective for dividend periods beginning July 1, 2019.
As a result of this change to the senior preferred stock dividend provisions:
No dividends were payable on the senior preferred stock for the third quarter of 2019, as our net worth of $6.4 billion as of June 30, 2019 was lower than the $25 billion capital reserve amount.
No dividends will be payable on the senior preferred stock for the fourth quarter of 2019, as our net worth of $10.3 billion as of September 30, 2019 is lower than the $25 billion capital reserve amount.
Modification to Liquidation Preference ProvisionsIncrease in Liquidation Preference. The letter agreement provides that, on September 30, 2019, and at the end of each fiscal quarter thereafter, the liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock will increase by an amount equal to the increase in our net worth, if any, during the immediately prior fiscal quarter, until such time as the liquidation preference has increased by $22 billion.

Fannie Mae Third Quarter 2019 Form 10-Q

MD&A | Legislation and Regulation


As a result of this change to the senior preferred stock liquidation preference provisions:
The aggregate liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock increased from $123.8 billion as of June 30, 2019 to $127.2 billion as of September 30, 2019, due to the $3.4 billion increase in our net worth during the second quarter of 2019.
The aggregate liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock will increase from $127.2 billion as of September 30, 2019 to $131.2 billion as of December 31, 2019, due to the $4.0 billion increase in our net worth during the third quarter of 2019.
New Certificate of Designation. Pursuant to the letter agreement, Fannie Mae replaced the Certificate of Designation for the senior preferred stock to reflect the revised dividend provisions, effective September 30, 2019. The new Certificate of Designation is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this report.
Agreement to Amend Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement to Enhance Taxpayer Protections. The letter agreement provides that we and Treasury agree to negotiate and execute an additional amendment to the senior preferred stock purchase agreement that further enhances taxpayer protections by adopting covenants broadly consistent with recommendations for administrative reform contained in the Treasury plan.
As described in “Housing Finance Reform,” the Treasury plan recommends that the GSEs have a capital restoration plan that provides for sufficient capital and other loss-absorbing capacity to operate in a safe and sound manner. In announcing the letter agreement, Treasury noted that subsequent amendments to the senior preferred stock purchase agreement may be appropriate to facilitate the implementation of any eventual recapitalization plan.
We describe the terms of the senior preferred stock and the related senior preferred stock purchase agreement with Treasury, prior to the modifications described above, in our 2018 Form 10-K under the heading “Business—Conservatorship, Treasury Agreements and Housing Finance Reform—Treasury Agreements.”
New FHFA Strategic Plan for Conservatorships and 2020 Scorecard
On October 28, 2019, FHFA released its 2019 Strategic Plan for the Conservatorships of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (the “2019 strategic plan”), along with its 2020 Scorecard for Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Common Securitization Solutions (the “2020 scorecard”), which is a set of corporate performance objectives that define our key priorities for 2020 and align with the 2019 strategic plan. According to the plan, “[FHFA’s] end-state vision is for the [GSEs] to return to operating as fully-private companies within a competitive, liquid, efficient, and resilient housing finance system, while a strengthened and independent FHFA ensures they have the capital reserves, risk management capabilities, corporate governance, and regulatory oversight that are appropriate for their size, risk, and systemic importance outside of conservatorship.” FHFA indicated that implementing the 2019 strategic plan and 2020 scorecard, combined with the framework for reform put forward in the Treasury plan, will “reduce the role of government in the mortgage market, protect taxpayers, support sustainable homeownership and affordable rental housing, and foster a mortgage finance market that is stable and liquid through the cycle.”
The new strategic plan, which replaces FHFA’s 2014 strategic plan, and the 2020 scorecard identify three broad objectives to ensure that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac:
1.
Focus on their core mission responsibilities to foster competitive, liquid, efficient, and resilient (“CLEAR”) national housing finance markets that support sustainable homeownership and affordable rental housing;
2.
Operate in a safe and sound manner appropriate for entities in conservatorship; and
3.
Prepare for their eventual exits from conservatorship.
See “Risk Factors” in this report and in our 2018 Form 10-K for a description of the risks associated with our uncertain future and potential housing finance reform. For information on the objectives in the 2020 scorecard, see our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (‘‘SEC’’) on October 29, 2019.
Revised Multifamily Business Volume Cap
On September 13, 2019, FHFA announced revisions to the structure of the loan acquisition volume caps applicable to Fannie Mae’s and Freddie Mac’s multifamily loan purchases. Previously, FHFA’s 2019 conservatorship scorecard included an objective to maintain the dollar volume of new multifamily business for each company at or below $35 billion for the year, excluding certain targeted affordable and underserved market business segments such as loans financing energy or water efficiency improvements. The new multifamily loan purchase caps, which replaced the prior caps effective October 1, 2019, are $100 billion for all new multifamily business, with no exclusions, for each of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac for the five-quarter period beginning in the fourth quarter of 2019 through the fourth quarter of 2020. In addition, FHFA directed that at least 37.5% of each company’s multifamily business during that period must be mission-driven, affordable housing, pursuant to FHFA’s guidelines for mission-driven loans.

2018 Housing Goals Performance
We are subject to housing goals, which establish specified requirements for our mortgage acquisitions relating to affordability or location. In September 2019, FHFA notified us that it had preliminarily determined that we met all of our single-family and multifamily housing goals for 2018. See “Business—Charter Act and Regulation—GSE Act and Other Regulation—Housing Goals” in our 2018 Form 10-K and “MD&A—Legislation and Regulation—2018 Housing Goals Performance” in our First Quarter 2019 Form 10-Q for more information regarding our housing goals.
Final Rule on Credit Score Models
The Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act of 2018 (the “Economic Growth Act”) provides that, if we condition the purchase of a mortgage loan on a borrower's credit score, that credit score must be produced by a model that has been validated and approved by us based on the standards and criteria in the Economic Growth Act and FHFA regulations. On August 16, 2019, FHFA published a final rule on the validation and approval of credit score models, which became effective in October 2019. The final rule establishes standards and criteria, and outlines a four-phase process by which we and Freddie Mac should validate and approve third-party credit score models. The credit score models will be evaluated for factors such as accuracy, reliability and integrity, as well as impacts on fair lending and the mortgage industry. Once our evaluation is complete, we must submit the proposed third-party credit score models to FHFA for a final decision. The final rule does not address the time frame for industry adoption and implementation of the new credit score models.

MD&A | Uniform Mortgage-Backed Securities

Uniform Mortgage-Backed Securities
 
Overview
On June 3, 2019, we and Freddie Mac began issuing single-family uniform mortgage-backed securities, or “UMBSTM.” We also began using the common securitization platform operated by Common Securitization Solutions, LLC (“CSS”), a limited liability company we own jointly with Freddie Mac, to perform certain aspects of the securitization process for our single-family Fannie Mae MBS issuances beginning in May 2019. This represented the final implementation of the Single Security Initiative that we, Freddie Mac and FHFA began working on in 2014 to develop a single common mortgage-backed security issued by both Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to finance fixed-rate mortgage loans backed by single-family properties. The issuance of UMBS and use of the common securitization platform represent significant changes for the mortgage market and for our securitization operations and business.
UMBS and Structured Securities
Each of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac issues and guarantees UMBS and structured securities backed by UMBS and other securities, as described below.
UMBS. Each of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac issues and guarantees UMBS that are directly backed by the mortgage loans it has acquired, referred to as “first-level securities.” UMBS issued by Fannie Mae are backed only by mortgage loans that Fannie Mae has acquired, and similarly UMBS issued by Freddie Mac are backed only by mortgage loans that Freddie Mac has acquired. There is no commingling of Fannie Mae- and Freddie Mac-acquired loans within UMBS.
Mortgage loans backing UMBS are limited to fixed-rate mortgage loans eligible for financing through the to-be-announced (“TBA”) market. We continue to issue some types of Fannie Mae MBS that are not TBA-eligible and therefore are not issued as UMBS, such as single-family Fannie Mae MBS backed by adjustable-rate mortgages and all multifamily Fannie Mae MBS.
Structured Securities. Each of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac also issues and guarantees structured mortgage-backed securities, referred to as “second-level securities,” that are resecuritizations of UMBS or previously-issued structured securities. In contrast to UMBS, second-level securities can be commingled—that is, they can include both Fannie Mae securities and Freddie Mac securities as the underlying collateral for the security. These structured securities include SupersTM, which are single-class resecuritizations, and real estate mortgage investment conduit securities (“REMICs”), which are multi-class resecuritizations. While Supers are backed only by TBA-eligible securities, REMICs can be backed by TBA-eligible or non-TBA-eligible securities.
The key features of UMBS are the same as those of legacy single-family Fannie Mae MBS. Accordingly, all single-family Fannie Mae MBS that are directly backed by fixed-rate loans and generally eligible for trading in the TBA market are UMBS, whether issued before or after the June 3, 2019 Single Security Initiative implementation date. In this report, we use the term “Fannie Mae-issued UMBS” to refer to single-family Fannie Mae MBS that are directly backed by fixed-rate mortgage loans and generally eligible for trading in the TBA market. We use the term “Fannie Mae MBS” or “our MBS” to refer to any type of mortgage-backed security that we issue, including UMBS, Supers, REMICs and other types of single-family or multifamily mortgage-backed securities. References to our single-family guaranty book of business in this report exclude Freddie Mac-acquired mortgage loans underlying Freddie Mac mortgage-related securities that we have resecuritized.
When we issue a structured security backed in whole or part by Freddie Mac securities, we provide a new and separate guaranty of principal and interest on the newly-formed structured security. If Freddie Mac were to fail to make a payment due on its securities underlying a Fannie Mae-issued structured security, we would be obligated under our guaranty to fund any shortfall.
See “Risk Factors” in this report and in our 2018 Form 10-K, “MD&A—Single Security Initiative & Common Securitization Platform” in our Second Quarter 2019 Form 10-Q, and “Risk Management—Institutional Counterparty Credit Risk Management—Counterparty Credit Risk Exposure arising from the Resecuritization of Freddie Mac-issued securities” in this report for a discussion of the risks to our business associated with the Single Security Initiative, the resecuritization of Freddie Mac-issued securities, and the common securitization platform.

How Interest Rates Can Affect Our Financial Results
Net interest income. In a rising interest rate environment, our mortgage loans tend to prepay more slowly, which typically results in lower net amortization income from cost basis adjustments on mortgage loans and related debt. Conversely, in a declining interest rate environment, our mortgage loans tend to prepay faster, typically resulting in higher net amortization income from cost basis adjustments on mortgage loans and related debt.
Fair value gains (losses). We have exposure to fair value gains and losses resulting from changes in interest rates, primarily through our risk management derivatives and mortgage commitment derivatives, which we mark to market. Generally, we experience fair value losses when swap rates decrease and fair value gains when swap rates increase; however, because the composition of our derivative position varies across the yield curve, different yield curve changes (for example, parallel, steepening or flattening) will generate different gains and losses.
Credit-related income (expense). Increases in mortgage interest rates tend to lengthen the expected lives of our modified loans, which generally increases the impairment and provision for credit losses on such loans. Decreases in mortgage interest rates tend to shorten the expected lives of our modified loans, which reduces the impairment and provision for credit losses on such loans.

CHART-1792FD6F082A57E490C.JPG
Home prices and how they can affect our financial results
We expect home price appreciation on a national basis to moderate in the remainder of this year and 2020, as compared with 2018. We also expect significant regional variation in the timing and rate of home price growth. For further discussion on housing activity, see “Single-Family Business—Single-Family Mortgage Market” and “Multifamily Business—Multifamily Mortgage Market.” 
Actual and forecasted home prices impact our provision or benefit for credit losses.
Changes in home prices affect the amount of equity that borrowers have in their homes. Borrowers with less equity typically have higher delinquency and default rates.
As home prices increase, the severity of losses we incur on defaulted loans that we hold or guarantee decreases because the amount we can recover from the properties securing the loans increases. Decreases in home prices increase the losses we incur on defaulted loans.

Fannie Mae’s home price index is a weighted repeat transactions index, measuring average price changes in repeat sales on the same properties. Fannie Mae’s home price index excludes prices on properties sold in foreclosure. Fannie Mae’s home price estimates are based on preliminary data and are subject to change as additional data become available.
CHART-A60A9DA7A1205A36A31.JPG
How housing activity can affect our financial results
Homebuilding has typically been a leading indicator of broader economic indicators, such as the U.S. Gross Domestic Product, or GDP, and the unemployment rate. Residential construction activity tends to soften prior to a weakness in the economy and can improve prior to a recovery in economic activity. Broader economic indicators can affect several mortgage market factors including the demand for both single-family and multifamily housing and the level of loan delinquencies.
Fewer housing starts results in fewer properties being available for purchase, which can lower the volume of originations in the mortgage market.
Construction activity can also affect credit losses. When the pace of construction does not meet demand, the resulting growth in home prices can increase the risk profile of newly acquired home purchase loans and increase the risk of default if home prices subsequently decline. Reduced construction may also coincide with a broader deterioration in housing conditions, which may result in higher levels of delinquencies and greater losses on defaulted loans.

How GDP, the unemployment rate and personal income can affect our financial results
Changes in GDP, the unemployment rate and personal income can affect several mortgage market factors, including the demand for both single-family and multifamily housing and the level of loan delinquencies.
Decreases in the unemployment rate typically result in lower levels of delinquencies, which often correlate to a decrease in credit losses.
Slower growth or outright declines in personal income heightens the risk of delinquency by reducing homeowners’ ability to pay their mortgages. Slower income growth could also negatively impact affordability, constraining home sales and mortgage originations.

Consolidated Results of Operations
 
This section provides a discussion of our condensed consolidated results of operations and should be read together with our condensed consolidated financial statements, including the accompanying notes.
Our long-term financial performance will depend on many factors, including:
the size of and our share of the U.S. mortgage market, which in turn will depend upon such factors as population growth, household formation and home price appreciation;
borrower performance and interest rate movements; and
actions by FHFA, the Administration and Congress relating to our business and housing finance reform, including the capital requirements that will be applicable to us, our ongoing financial obligations to Treasury and our competitive environment.
Quarterly fluctuations in acquisition volumes, market share, guaranty fees, or acquisition credit characteristics in any one period have limited impact on the size and stability of our conventional guaranty book of business and the associated revenue, profitability, and credit quality.

Net Interest Income
We have two primary sources of net interest income:
guaranty fees we receive for managing the credit risk on loans underlying Fannie Mae MBS held by third parties; and
the difference between interest income earned on the assets in our retained mortgage portfolio and our other investments portfolio (collectively, our “portfolios”) and the interest expense associated with the debt that funds those assets. See “Retained Mortgage Portfolio” and “Liquidity and Capital Management—Liquidity Management—Other Investments Portfolio” for more information about our portfolios.
Guaranty fees consist of two primary components:
base guaranty fees that we receive over the life of the loan; and
upfront fees that we receive at the time of loan acquisition primarily related to single-family loan-level pricing adjustments and other fees we receive from lenders, which are amortized into net interest income as cost basis adjustments over the contractual life of the loan. We refer to this as amortization income.
We recognize almost all of our guaranty fee revenue in net interest income because we consolidate the substantial majority of our loans underlying our Fannie Mae MBS in consolidated trusts on our consolidated balance sheets. Those guaranty fees are

the primary component of the difference between the interest income on loans in consolidated trusts and the interest expense on the debt of consolidated trusts.

Revenues generated by the 10 basis point guaranty fee increase we implemented pursuant to the TCCA, the incremental revenue from which is remitted to Treasury and not retained by us.
(2) 
Includes interest income from assets held in our retained mortgage portfolio and our other investments portfolio, as well as other assets used to generate lender liquidity. Also includes interest expense on our outstanding Connecticut Avenue Securities® of $356 million and $366 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $1.1 billion and $1.0 billion for the first nine months of 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Net interest income declined in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 compared with the third quarter and first nine months of 2018, driven by lower net interest income from portfolios and a decline in net amortization income, partially offset by higher base guaranty fee income.
Net interest income from portfolios decreased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 compared with the third quarter and first nine months of 2018 primarily due to sales of reperforming loans in our loss mitigation portfolio as well as liquidations, which reduced the average balance of our retained mortgage portfolio. This was partially offset by increased interest income on our other investments portfolio due to higher short-term interest rates on our federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell or similar arrangements, and a higher average balance of non-mortgage securities. See “Retained Mortgage Portfolio” for more information on our loss mitigation portfolio.
Net interest income from base guaranty fees increased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 compared with the third quarter and first nine months of 2018 due to an increase in the size of our guaranty book of business and loans with higher base guaranty fees comprising a larger part of our guaranty book of business.
Net amortization income decreased in the first nine months of 2019 compared with the first nine months of 2018 primarily due to a sharp decline in prepayment volumes in the first quarter of 2019, which resulted in lower amortization of cost basis adjustments on mortgage loans of consolidated trusts and the related debt.
Analysis of Deferred Amortization Income
We initially recognize mortgage loans and debt of consolidated trusts in our condensed consolidated balance sheet at fair value. The difference between the initial fair value and the carrying value of these instruments is recorded as cost basis adjustments, either as premiums or discounts. These cost basis adjustments are amortized as yield adjustments over the contractual lives of the loans or debt. On a net basis, for mortgage loans and debt of consolidated trusts, we are in a premium position with respect to debt of consolidated trusts, which represents deferred income we will recognize in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income as amortization income in future periods.

The timing of when we recognize amortization income can vary based on a number of factors, the most significant of which is interest rates. In a rising interest rate environment, our mortgage loans tend to prepay more slowly, which typically results in lower net amortization income. Conversely, in a declining interest rate environment, our mortgage loans tend to prepay faster, typically resulting in higher net amortization income.
Analysis of Net Interest Income
The table below displays an analysis of our net interest income, average balances, and related yields earned on assets and incurred on liabilities. For most components of the average balances, we use a daily weighted average of amortized cost. When daily average balance information is not available, such as for mortgage loans, we use monthly averages.

(1) 
Average balance includes mortgage loans on nonaccrual status. A single-family loan is placed on nonaccrual status when the payment of principal or interest on the loan is 60 days or more past due. A multifamily loan is placed on nonaccrual status when the loan becomes 90 days or more past due according to its contractual terms or is deemed individually impaired. Typically, interest income on nonaccrual mortgage loans is recognized when cash is received. Interest income not recognized for loans on nonaccrual status was $110 million and $301 million, respectively, for the third quarter and first nine months of 2019, compared with $86 million and $351 million, respectively, for the third quarter and first nine months of 2018.
(2) 
Consists of cash, cash equivalents and U.S Treasury securities.
Fee and Other Income
Fee and other income includes transaction fees, multifamily fees and other miscellaneous income. Fee and other income increased in the third quarter of 2019 compared with the third quarter of 2018, primarily due to an increase in yield maintenance fees due to increased prepayments on multifamily loans as interest rates decreased.
Investment Gains, Net
Investment gains, net primarily includes gains and losses recognized from the sale of loans and available-for-sale securities, gains and losses recognized on the consolidation and deconsolidation of securities, the lower of cost or fair value adjustments on held for sale (“HFS”) loans, and net other-than-temporary impairments recognized on our investments. Investment gains, net increased in the third quarter and the first nine months of 2019 compared with the third quarter and first nine months of 2018, primarily driven by an increase in gains on sales of single-family loans.
Fair Value Gains (Losses), Net
The estimated fair value of our derivatives, trading securities and other financial instruments carried at fair value may fluctuate substantially from period to period because of changes in interest rates, the yield curve, mortgage and credit spreads and implied volatility, as well as activity related to these financial instruments. While the estimated fair value of our derivatives that serve to mitigate certain risk exposures may fluctuate, some of the financial instruments that generate these exposures are not recorded at fair value in our condensed consolidated financial statements. We are developing capabilities to implement hedge accounting to reduce interest rate volatility in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Consists of fair value gains and losses on non-CAS debt and mortgage loans held at fair value.
Fair value losses in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 were primarily driven by:
net interest expense accruals on risk management derivatives combined with decreases in the fair value of pay-fixed risk management derivatives due to declines in medium- to longer-term swap rates, which were partially offset by increases in the fair value of receive-fixed risk management derivatives;
decreases in the fair value of mortgage commitment derivatives due to losses on commitments to sell mortgage-related securities as a result of increases in the prices of securities as interest rates declined during the commitment periods, partially offset by gains on commitments to buy mortgage-related securities; and
increases in the fair value of long-term debt of consolidated trusts held at fair value, which are included in “Other, net,” due to declines in interest rates.
Fair value gains in the third quarter and first nine months of 2018 were primarily driven by:
increases in the fair value of mortgage commitment derivatives due to gains on commitments to sell mortgage-related securities as a result of decreases in the prices of securities as interest rates rose during the commitment periods; and
increases in the fair value of pay-fixed risk management derivatives due to an increase in longer-term swap rates during the periods.
Credit-Related Income
Our credit-related income or expense can vary substantially from period to period based on a number of factors, such as changes in actual and expected home prices, fluctuations in interest rates, borrower payment behavior, events such as natural disasters, the types and volume of our loss mitigation activities, the volume of foreclosures completed, and the redesignation of loans from held for investment (“HFI”) to HFS. In addition, our credit-related income or expense and our loss reserves can be impacted by updates to the models, assumptions and data used in determining our allowance for loan losses.
While the redesignation of certain reperforming and nonperforming single-family loans from HFI to HFS has been a significant driver of credit-related income in recent periods, we may see a reduced impact from this activity in the future to the extent the population of loans we are considering for redesignation declines. Further, our implementation of Accounting Standards Update 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments and related amendments (the “CECL standard”) on January 1, 2020 will likely introduce additional volatility in our results as credit-related income or expense will include expected lifetime losses on our loans and other financial instruments subject to the standard and thus become more sensitive to fluctuations in the factors detailed above.

Primarily consists of changes in the allowance due to loan delinquency, loan liquidations, new troubled debt restructurings, amortization of concessions granted to borrowers and the impact of FHFA’s Advisory Bulletin 2012-02, “Framework for Adversely Classifying Loans, Other Real Estate Owned, and Other Assets and Listing Assets for Special Mention” (the “Advisory Bulletin”).
(2) 
Primarily consists of the impact of model and assumption changes and changes in the reserve for guaranty losses that are not separately included in the other components.
The factors that contributed to our benefit for credit losses in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 were:
The redesignation of certain reperforming single-family loans from HFI to HFS as we no longer intend to hold them for the foreseeable future or to maturity. Upon redesignation of these loans, we recorded the loans at the lower of cost or fair value with a charge-off to the allowance for loan losses. Amounts recorded in the allowance related to these loans exceeded the amounts charged off, which contributed to the benefit for credit losses.
In the third quarter of 2019, we enhanced the model used to estimate cash flows for individually impaired single-family loans within our allowance for loan losses. This enhancement was performed as a part of management’s routine model performance review process. In addition to incorporating recent loan performance data, this model enhancement better captures recent prepayment activity, default rates, and loss severity in the event of default. The enhancement resulted in a decrease to our allowance for loan losses and an incremental benefit for credit losses of approximately $850 million and is included in “Other” in the table above.
An increase in actual and forecasted home prices. Higher home prices decrease the likelihood that loans will default and reduce the amount of credit loss on loans that do default, which impacts our estimate of losses and ultimately reduces our loss reserves and provision for credit losses.
Lower actual and projected mortgage interest rates. As mortgage interest rates decline, we expect an increase in future prepayments on single-family individually impaired loans, including modified loans. Higher expected prepayments shorten the expected lives of modified loans, which decreases the impairment relating to term and interest rate concessions provided on these loans and results in a decrease in the provision for credit losses.
Changes in loan activity. Higher loan liquidation activity generally occurs during a lower interest rate environment as loans prepay, and during the peak home buying season of the second and third quarters of each year. When mortgage loans prepay, we reverse any remaining allowance related to these loans, which contributed to the benefit for credit losses.
The primary factors that impacted our benefit for credit losses in the third quarter and first nine months of 2018 were:
We recognized a benefit from the redesignation of certain reperforming and nonperforming single-family loans from HFI to HFS during the periods.
An increase in actual home prices, which contributed to the benefit for credit losses.
These factors were partially offset by the impact of higher actual and projected mortgage interest rates. As mortgage interest rates rise, we expect a decrease in future prepayments on single-family individually impaired loans, including modified loans. Lower expected prepayments lengthen the expected lives of modified loans, which increases the

impairment relating to term and interest rate concessions provided on these loans and results in an increase in the provision for credit losses.
TCCA Fees
Pursuant to the TCCA, in 2012 FHFA directed us to increase our single-family guaranty fees by 10 basis points and remit this increase to Treasury. This TCCA-related revenue is included in “Net interest income” and the expense is recognized as “TCCA fees” in our condensed consolidated financial statements. TCCA fees increased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 compared with the third quarter and first nine months of 2018 as our book of business subject to the TCCA continued to grow. We expect the guaranty fees collected and expenses incurred under the TCCA to continue to increase.
Other Expenses, Net
Other expenses, net primarily consist of credit enhancement and mortgage insurance expenses, debt extinguishment gains and losses, housing trust fund expenses, loan subservicing costs and multifamily fees. Other expenses, net increased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 compared with the third quarter and first nine months of 2018 primarily due to an increase in credit enhancement costs resulting from higher outstanding volumes of credit risk transfer transactions. We expect our credit enhancement expenses to continue to rise as the percentage of our guaranty book of business on which we have transferred a portion of credit risk continues to increase. We discuss transfer of mortgage credit risk in “MD&ASingle-Family BusinessSingle-Family Mortgage Credit Risk ManagementSingle-Family Credit Enhancement and Transfer of Mortgage Credit Risk” and “MD&AMultifamily BusinessMultifamily Mortgage Credit Risk ManagementTransfer of Multifamily Mortgage Credit Risk.”

Mortgage Loans, Net of Allowance for Loan Losses
The mortgage loans reported in our condensed consolidated balance sheets are classified as either HFS or HFI and include loans owned by Fannie Mae and loans held in consolidated trusts.
Mortgage loans, net of allowance for loan losses increased as of September 30, 2019 compared with December 31, 2018 primarily driven by:
an increase in mortgage loans due to acquisitions outpacing liquidations and sales; and
a decrease in our allowance for loan losses primarily driven by the redesignation of certain nonperforming and reperforming single-family loans from HFI to HFS and as a result of an enhancement to the model, including the incorporation of recent loan performance data, used to estimate cash flows for individually impaired single-family loans.
For additional information on our mortgage loans, see “Note 3, Mortgage Loans,” and for additional information on changes in our allowance for loan losses, see “Note 4, Allowance for Loan Losses.”

The increase in other assets from December 31, 2018 to September 30, 2019 was primarily driven by an increase in advances to lenders. As interest rates declined during the first nine months of 2019, mortgage origination activity increased, resulting in higher funding needs by lenders. For information on our accounting policy for advances to lenders, refer to “Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our 2018 Form 10-K.
Debt
The decrease in debt of Fannie Mae from December 31, 2018 to September 30, 2019 was primarily driven by the decline in the size of our retained mortgage portfolio. We did not issue new debt to replace all of our debt of Fannie Mae that paid off during the first nine months of 2019. The increase in debt of consolidated trusts from December 31, 2018 to September 30, 2019 was primarily driven by sales of Fannie Mae MBS, which are accounted for as issuances of debt of consolidated trusts in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, since the MBS certificate ownership is transferred from us to a third party. See “MD&A—Liquidity and Capital Management—Liquidity Management—Debt Funding” for a summary of the activity of the debt of Fannie Mae and a comparison of the mix between our outstanding short-term and long-term debt. Also see “Note 7, Short-Term and Long-Term Debt” for additional information on our outstanding debt.
Stockholders’ Equity
Our net equity increased as of September 30, 2019 compared with December 31, 2018 by the amount of our comprehensive income recognized during the first nine months of 2019, partially offset by our payments of senior preferred stock dividends to Treasury during the first two quarters of 2019.
Under the modified liquidation preference provisions of the senior preferred stock described in “Legislation and Regulation—Letter Agreement with Treasury,” the aggregate liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock increased from $123.8 billion as of June 30, 2019 to $127.2 billion as of September 30, 2019, and will further increase to $131.2 billion as of December 31, 2019.
Retained Mortgage Portfolio
 
Our retained mortgage portfolio consists of mortgage loans and mortgage-related securities that we own, including Fannie Mae MBS and non-Fannie Mae mortgage-related securities. Assets held by consolidated MBS trusts that back mortgage-related securities owned by third parties are not included in our retained mortgage portfolio.
We use our retained mortgage portfolio primarily to provide liquidity to the mortgage market and support our loss mitigation activities. Previously, we also used our retained mortgage portfolio for investment purposes.
The chart below separates the instruments within our retained mortgage portfolio, measured by unpaid principal balance, into three categories based on each instrument’s use:
Lender liquidity, which includes balances related to our whole loan conduit activity, supports our efforts to provide liquidity to the single-family and multifamily mortgage markets.
Loss mitigation supports our loss mitigation efforts through the purchase of delinquent loans from our MBS trusts.
Other represents assets that were previously purchased for investment purposes. More than half of the balance of “Other” as of September 30, 2019 consisted of Fannie Mae reverse mortgage securities and reverse mortgage loans. We expect the amount of assets in “Other” will continue to decline over time as they liquidate, mature or are sold.

MD&A | Retained Mortgage Portfolio


The amount of mortgage assets that we may own is capped at $250 billion by our senior preferred stock purchase agreement with Treasury, and FHFA has directed that we further cap our mortgage assets at $225 billion, as described in “BusinessConservatorship, Treasury Agreements and Housing Finance ReformTreasury Agreements” in our 2018 Form 10-K. We expect our retained mortgage portfolio to remain below the current $225 billion cap directed by FHFA. The September 2019 Treasury plan includes a recommendation that Treasury and FHFA amend our senior preferred stock purchase agreement to further reduce the cap on our investments in mortgage-related assets, and also to restrict our retained mortgage portfolio to solely supporting the business of securitizing MBS.
We have the option or, in some instances, the obligation, to purchase mortgage loans that meet specific criteria from an MBS trust. In support of our loss mitigation strategy, we purchased $7.8 billion of loans from our single-family MBS trusts in the first nine months of 2019, the substantial majority of which were delinquent. In deciding whether and when to exercise our option to purchase a loan from a single-family MBS trust, we consider a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the cost of funds, general market conditions, and relevant market yields. The weight we give to these factors, among others, changes depending on market circumstances and other factors. See “MD&ARetained Mortgage Portfolio—Purchases of Loans from Our MBS Trusts” in our 2018 Form 10-K for more information relating to our purchases of loans from MBS trusts.

MD&A | Guaranty Book of Business


Guaranty Book of Business
 
Our “guaranty book of business” consists of:
Fannie Mae MBS outstanding, excluding the portions of any structured securities we issue that are backed by Freddie Mac securities;
mortgage loans of Fannie Mae held in our retained mortgage portfolio; and
other credit enhancements that we provide on mortgage assets.
“Total Fannie Mae guarantees” consists of:
our guaranty book of business; and
the portions of any structured securities we issue that are backed by Freddie Mac securities.
When we resecuritize Freddie Mac securities into Fannie Mae-issued structured securities, our guaranty of principal and interest extends to the underlying Freddie Mac securities. However, Freddie Mac continues to guaranty the payment of principal and interest on the underlying Freddie Mac securities that we have resecuritized. We do not charge an incremental guaranty fee to include Freddie Mac securities in the structured securities that we issue.
The table below displays the composition of our guaranty book of business based on unpaid principal balance. Our single-family guaranty book of business accounted for 90% of our guaranty book of business as of September 30, 2019 and 91% of our guaranty book of business as of December 31, 2018.

Consists of approximately (i) $23.0 billion in unpaid principal balance of Freddie Mac-issued UMBS backing Fannie Mae-issued Supers; and (ii) $5.9 billion in unpaid principal balance of Freddie Mac securities backing Fannie Mae-issued REMICs, a portion of which may be backed in whole or in part by Fannie Mae MBS. Therefore, our total exposure to Freddie Mac securities included in Fannie Mae REMIC collateral may be lower.
The Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992, as amended, including by the Federal Housing Finance Regulatory Reform Act of 2008 (together, the “GSE Act”) requires us to set aside each year an amount equal to 4.2 basis points of the unpaid principal balance of our total new business purchases and to pay this amount to specified HUD and Treasury funds. In April 2019, we paid $215 million to the funds based on our new business purchases in 2018. For the first nine months of 2019, we recognized an expense of $193 million related to this obligation based on our $460.0 billion in new business purchases during the period. We expect to pay this amount to the funds in 2020, plus additional amounts to be accrued based on our new business purchases in the fourth quarter of 2019. See “MD&A—Legislation and Regulation—Affordable Housing Allocations” in our First Quarter 2019 Form 10-Q for more information regarding this obligation.

MD&A | Business Segments


Business Segments
 
We have two reportable business segments: Single-Family and Multifamily. The Single-Family business operates in the secondary mortgage market relating to single-family mortgage loans, which are secured by properties containing four or fewer residential dwelling units. The Multifamily business operates in the secondary mortgage market relating primarily to multifamily mortgage loans, which are secured by properties containing five or more residential units.
The chart below displays the net revenues and net income for each of our business segments for the first nine months of 2018 compared with the first nine months of 2019. Net revenues consist of net interest income and fee and other income.
Business Segment Net Revenues and Net Income
(Dollars in billions)
CHART-91F399B4613F5B22A45.JPG
Segment Allocation Methodology
The majority of our revenues and expenses are directly associated with either our single-family or our multifamily business segment and are included in determining that segment’s operating results. Other revenues and expenses, including administrative expenses, that are not directly attributable to a particular business segment are allocated based on the size of each segment’s guaranty book of business. The substantial majority of the gains and losses associated with our risk management derivatives are allocated to our single-family business segment.
In the following sections, we describe each segment’s business metrics and financial results. We also describe how each segment manages mortgage credit risk and its credit metrics.
Single-Family Business
 
Working with our lender customers, our Single-Family business provides liquidity to the mortgage market primarily by acquiring single-family loans from lenders and securitizing those loans into Fannie Mae MBS, which are either delivered to the lenders or sold to investors or dealers. A single-family loan is secured by a property with four or fewer residential units.
This section supplements and updates information regarding our Single-Family business segment in our 2018 Form 10-K. See “MD&ASingle-Family Business” in our 2018 Form 10-K for additional information regarding the primary business activities, customers and competition of our Single-Family business.
Presentation of our single-family guaranty book of business
For purposes of the information reported in this “Single-Family Business” section, we measure the single-family guaranty book of business by using the unpaid principal balance of our mortgage loans underlying Fannie Mae MBS outstanding. By contrast, the single-family guaranty book of business presented in the “Composition of Fannie Mae Guaranty Book of Business” table in the “Guaranty Book of Business” section is based on the unpaid principal balance of the Fannie Mae MBS outstanding, rather than the unpaid principal balance of the underlying mortgage loans. These amounts differ primarily as a result of payments we receive on underlying loans that have not yet been remitted to the MBS holders. As measured for purposes of the information reported below, our single-family conventional guaranty book of business was $2,940 billion as of September 30, 2019 and $2,903 billion as of December 31, 2018.

MD&A | Single-Family Business





Single-Family Market Share
Single-Family Mortgage Acquisition Market Share
Our share of the single-family acquisition market, including loans held on lenders’ books, may fluctuate from period to period. We currently estimate our single-family acquisition market share in the last three years remained within the range of 24% to 30%, supporting approximately one in four single-family mortgage loans. Our market share estimate is based on publicly available data regarding the amount of single-family first-lien mortgage loans originated and our competitors’ acquisitions. Our single-family acquisitions were $194.3 billion for the third quarter of 2019, compared with $122.3 billion for the third quarter of 2018.
Single-Family Mortgage-Related Securities Issuances Market Share
Our single-family Fannie Mae MBS issuances were $188.5 billion for the third quarter of 2019, compared with $129.9 billion for the third quarter of 2018. The chart below displays our market share, using data available as of publication, of single-family mortgage-related securities issuances in the third quarter of 2019 as compared with that of our primary competitors for the issuance of single-family mortgage-related securities.
New Single-Family Mortgage-Related Securities Issuances
Third Quarter 2019 Market Share
CHART-4CAE449D96E85E59BA6.JPG
We estimate our market share of single-family mortgage-related securities issuances was 39% in the third quarter of 2019, compared with 35% in the second quarter of 2019 and 40% in the third quarter of 2018.
Single-Family Mortgage Market
Housing activity rose slightly in the third quarter of 2019 compared with the second quarter of 2019. Total existing home sales averaged 5.4 million units annualized in the third quarter of 2019, compared with 5.3 million units in the second quarter of 2019, according to data from the National Association of REALTORS®. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, new single-family home sales increased during the third quarter of 2019, averaging an annualized rate of 691,000 units, compared with 661,000 units in the second quarter of 2019.
The 30-year fixed mortgage rate averaged 3.66% in the third quarter of 2019, compared with 4.01% in the second quarter of 2019, according to Freddie Mac’s Primary Mortgage Market Survey®.
We forecast that total originations in the U.S. single-family mortgage market in 2019 will increase from 2018 levels by approximately 15%, from an estimated $1.77 trillion in 2018 to $2.04 trillion in 2019, and that the amount of originations in the U.S. single-family mortgage market that are refinancings will increase from an estimated $532 billion in 2018 to $761 billion in 2019, as mortgage rates have declined in 2019.

Single-Family Business Metrics
Net interest income from guaranty fees for our Single-Family business is driven by the guaranty fees we charge on our single-family conventional guaranty book of business and the size of our single-family conventional guaranty book of business. The guaranty fees we charge are based on the characteristics of the loans we acquire. We adjust our guaranty fees in light of market conditions and to achieve return targets, which are based on FHFA’s proposed capital framework. As a result, the average charged guaranty fee on new acquisitions may fluctuate based on the credit quality and product mix of loans acquired, as well as market conditions and other factors.
Single-Family Guaranty Fee and Book of Business Metrics
CHART-AFE9A4DD5B7A5602986.JPG CHART-E690A0A1F7E2548FA5F.JPG
(1) 
Represents the sum of the average guaranty fee rate for our single-family conventional guaranty arrangements during the period plus the recognition of any upfront cash payments relating to these guaranty arrangements over an estimated average life at the time of acquisition. For the prior period, the methodology used to estimate average life at the time of acquisition has been updated. Excludes the impact of a 10 basis point guaranty fee increase implemented pursuant to the TCCA, the incremental revenue from which is remitted to Treasury and not retained by us.
(2) 
Our single-family conventional guaranty book of business consists primarily of single-family conventional mortgage loans underlying Fannie Mae MBS outstanding. It also includes single-family conventional mortgage loans of Fannie Mae held in our retained mortgage portfolio, and other credit enhancements that we provide on single-family conventional mortgage assets. Our single-family conventional guaranty book of business does not include: (a) non-Fannie Mae single-family mortgage-related securities held in our retained mortgage portfolio for which we do not provide a guaranty; (b) mortgage loans guaranteed or insured, in whole or in part, by the U.S. government; or (c) Freddie Mac-acquired mortgage loans underlying Freddie Mac-issued UMBS that we have resecuritized.
Our average charged guaranty fee on newly acquired conventional single-family loans, net of TCCA fees, decreased from 49.7 basis points in the third quarter of 2018 to 45.9 basis points in the third quarter of 2019, primarily driven by the stronger credit profile of our newly acquired single-family loans. Under FHFA’s proposed capital requirements, loans with stronger credit profiles typically require less capital.

(2) 
Consists of the benefit or provision for credit losses and foreclosed property income or expense.
Net interest income
Single-family net interest income decreased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 compared with the third quarter and first nine months of 2018, primarily due to a decline in net interest income from portfolios and a decline in net amortization income, partially offset by an increase in single-family base guaranty fee income. The drivers of net interest income for the single-family segment for the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 are consistent with the drivers of net interest income in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, which we discuss in “Consolidated Results of OperationsNet Interest Income.”
Fair value gains (losses), net
Fair value losses in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 were primarily driven by decreases in the fair value of our pay-fixed risk management derivatives, partially offset by increases in the fair value of our receive-fixed risk management derivatives, and decreases in the fair value of our mortgage commitments. In addition, increases in the fair value of our debt also resulted in fair value losses for the third quarter and first nine months of 2019. Conversely, fair value gains in the third quarter and first nine months of 2018 were primarily driven by increases in the fair value of our mortgage commitments derivatives and our pay-fixed risk management derivatives.
The drivers of our fair value gains (losses), net for the single-family segment for all periods presented are consistent with the drivers of fair value gains (losses), net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, which we discuss in “Consolidated Results of OperationsFair Value Gains (Losses), Net.”
Credit-related income
Credit-related income in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 was primarily driven by the redesignation of certain single-family loans from HFI to HFS; the enhancement to the model, including the incorporation of recent loan performance data used to estimate cash flows for individually impaired single-family loans; an increase in actual and forecasted home prices; lower actual and projected mortgage interest rates; and changes in loan activity related to loan liquidations.
Credit-related income in the third quarter and first nine months of 2018 was primarily driven by the redesignation of certain reperforming and nonperforming single-family loans from HFI to HFS and an increase in actual home prices. These factors were partially offset by the impact of higher actual and projected mortgage interest rates in the periods.
See “Consolidated Results of OperationsCredit-Related Income” in this report for more information on our credit-related income.

MD&A | Single-Family Business





Other expenses, net
Other expenses, net increased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 compared with the third quarter and first nine months of 2018, primarily due to an increase in credit enhancement costs resulting from higher outstanding volumes of loans covered by a credit risk transfer transaction. The drivers of other expenses, net for the single-family segment for the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 are consistent with the drivers discussed in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, which we discuss in “Consolidated Results of OperationsOther Expenses, Net.”
Single-Family Mortgage Credit Risk Management
This section updates our discussion of single-family mortgage credit risk management in our 2018 Form 10-K. For information on our acquisition and servicing policies, underwriting and servicing standards, quality control process, repurchase requests, and representation and warranty framework, see “MD&ASingle-Family BusinessSingle-Family Mortgage Credit Risk Management” in our 2018 Form 10-K.
Single-Family Portfolio Diversification and Monitoring
The profile of our single-family conventional guaranty book of business includes the following key risk characteristics:
Loan-to-value ratio. Loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio is a strong predictor of credit performance. The likelihood of default and the gross severity of a loss in the event of default are typically lower as the LTV ratio decreases. This also applies to the estimated mark-to-market LTV ratios, particularly those over 100%, as this indicates that the borrower’s mortgage balance exceeds the property value.
Product type. Certain loan product types have features that may result in increased risk. Generally, intermediate-term, fixed-rate mortgages exhibit the lowest default rates, followed by long-term, fixed-rate mortgages. Historically, adjustable-rate mortgages (“ARMs”), including negative-amortizing and interest-only loans, and balloon/reset mortgages have exhibited higher default rates than fixed-rate mortgages, partly because the borrower’s payments rose, within limits, as interest rates changed.
Number of units. Mortgages on one-unit properties tend to have lower credit risk than mortgages on two-, three- or four-unit properties.
Property type. Certain property types have a higher risk of default. For example, condominiums generally are considered to have higher credit risk than single-family detached properties.
Occupancy type. Mortgages on properties occupied by the borrower as a primary or secondary residence tend to have lower credit risk than mortgages on investment properties.
Credit score. Credit score is a measure often used by the financial services industry, including us, to assess borrower credit quality and the likelihood that a borrower will repay future obligations as expected. A higher credit score typically indicates lower credit risk.
Debt-to-income ratio. Debt-to-income (“DTI”) ratio refers to the ratio of a borrower’s outstanding debt obligations (including both mortgage debt and certain other long-term and significant short-term debts) to that borrower’s reported or calculated monthly income, to the extent the income is used to qualify for the mortgage. As a borrower’s DTI ratio increases, the associated risk of default on the loan generally increases, especially if other higher-risk factors are present. From time to time, we revise our guidelines for determining a borrower’s DTI ratio. The amount of income reported by a borrower and used to qualify for a mortgage may not represent the borrower’s total income; therefore, the DTI ratios we report may be higher than borrowers’ actual DTI ratios.
Loan purpose. Loan purpose refers to how the borrower intends to use the funds from a mortgage loan—either for a home purchase or refinancing of an existing mortgage. Cash-out refinancings have a higher risk of default than either mortgage loans used for the purchase of a property or other refinancings that restrict the amount of cash returned to the borrower.
Geographic concentration. Local economic conditions affect borrowers’ ability to repay loans and the value of collateral underlying loans. Geographic diversification reduces mortgage credit risk.
Loan age. We monitor year of origination and loan age, which is defined as the number of years since origination. Credit losses on mortgage loans typically do not peak until the third through sixth year following origination; however, this range can vary based on many factors, including changes in macroeconomic conditions and foreclosure timelines.
The table below displays our single-family conventional business volumes and our single-family conventional guaranty book of business, based on certain key risk characteristics that we use to evaluate the risk profile and credit quality of our single-family loans. We exclude from the single-family credit statistics reported below less than 1% of our single-family conventional guaranty book of business for which our loan-level information was incomplete as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Characteristics of our New Single-Family Loan Acquisitions
The share of our single-family loan acquisitions consisting of refinance loans rather than home purchase loans increased in the third quarter of 2019 compared with the third quarter of 2018, primarily due to a lower interest rate environment, which encouraged refinance activity. Typically, refinance loans have lower LTV ratios than home purchase loans. This trend contributed to a decrease in the percentage of our single-family loan acquisitions with LTV ratios over 90%—from 24% in the third quarter of 2018 to 21% in the third quarter of 2019.
Our share of acquisitions of loans with DTI ratios above 45% decreased in the third quarter of 2019 compared with the third quarter of 2018. This decrease was driven in part by changes in our eligibility guidelines implemented in December 2018 and July 2019 to further limit risk layering, particularly with respect to loans with DTI ratios above 45%, as well as a higher volume of refinance loan acquisitions.
Desktop Underwriter Update
As part of our comprehensive risk management approach, we periodically update our proprietary automated underwriting system, Desktop Underwriter® (“DU®”), to reflect changes to our underwriting and eligibility guidelines. In July 2019, we implemented the following changes to DU:
HomeReady® income limits. To better align with our housing goals, we changed the income limit requirement for HomeReady loans, our flagship affordable product, to set a maximum borrower income limit of 80% of area median income for the property’s location. Previously, a borrower could be eligible for a HomeReady loan if the borrower’s total annual income did not exceed 100% of area median income or if the property was located in a low-income census tract. We expect this change will reduce the proportion of our loan acquisitions consisting of HomeReady loans, which we also expect may reduce the proportion of our loan acquisitions with LTV ratios over 90%. Approximately 7% of our single-family conventional loan acquisitions in the third quarter of 2019 consisted of HomeReady loans, compared with approximately 9% in the second quarter of 2019.
DU eligibility assessment. As part of normal business operations, we regularly review DU to determine whether its risk analysis and eligibility assessment are appropriate based on the current market environment and loan performance information. As a result of our most recent review, we updated the DU eligibility assessment to better align the mix of business delivered to us with the composition of business in the overall market. We expect this change will result in fewer acquisitions of loans with multiple higher-risk characteristics.

We will continue to monitor loan acquisitions and market conditions and, as appropriate, make changes in our eligibility criteria so that the loans we acquire are consistent with our risk appetite.

Single-Family Credit Enhancement and Transfer of Mortgage Credit Risk
Single-Family Credit Enhancement
Our charter generally requires credit enhancement on any single-family conventional mortgage loan that we purchase or securitize if it has an LTV ratio over 80% at the time of purchase. We generally achieve this charter requirement through primary mortgage insurance. We also enter into various other types of transactions in which we transfer mortgage credit risk to third parties.
The table below displays information about loans in our single-family conventional guaranty book of business covered by one or more forms of credit enhancement, including mortgage insurance or a credit risk transfer transaction. For a description of primary mortgage insurance and the other types of credit enhancements specified in the table, see “MD&ASingle-Family BusinessSingle-Family Mortgage Credit Risk ManagementSingle-Family Credit Enhancement and Transfer of Mortgage Credit Risk” in our 2018 Form 10-K. For a discussion of our exposure to and management of the institutional counterparty credit risk associated with the providers of these credit enhancements, see “MD&ARisk ManagementInstitutional Counterparty Credit Risk Management” and "Note 13, Concentrations of Credit Risk" in our 2018 Form 10-K and “Note 10, Concentrations of Credit Risk” in this report.

Transfer of Mortgage Credit Risk
In addition to primary mortgage insurance, our Single-Family business has developed other risk-sharing capabilities to transfer portions of our single-family mortgage credit risk to the private market. Our credit risk transfer transactions are designed to transfer a portion of the losses we expect would be incurred in a stressed credit environment, such as a severe or prolonged economic downturn. We continually evaluate our credit risk transfer transactions which, in addition to managing our credit risk, also affect our returns on capital and may impact the amount of capital we would be required to hold under FHFA’s proposed capital requirements. We discuss FHFA’s proposed capital rule in “BusinessCharter Act and RegulationGSE Act and Other Regulation” in our 2018 Form 10-K.
During the first nine months of 2019, pursuant to our credit risk transfer transactions, we transferred a portion of the mortgage credit risk on single-family mortgages with an unpaid principal balance of $223 billion at the time of the transactions. As of September 30, 2019, approximately 41% of the loans in our single-family conventional guaranty book of business, measured by unpaid principal balance, were included in a reference pool for a credit risk transfer transaction.

The following table displays the approximate cash paid or transferred to investors for these credit risk transfer transactions. The cash represents the portion of the guaranty fee paid to investors as compensation for taking on a share of the credit risk. These expenses increased from the first nine months of 2018 to the first nine months of 2019. We expect these expenses will continue to increase as the percentage of our single-family conventional guaranty book of business that is covered by a credit risk transfer transaction increases.

With our July 2019 CAS REMICTM transaction, we updated the following terms of our CAS REMIC transactions compared with our prior CAS REMIC transactions: extended the term from 12.5 years to 20 years; shortened the call option from 10 years to 7 years; and retained a smaller first-loss position (that is, investors purchased a larger portion of the risk that we refer to as the first-loss tranche). These updates were primarily designed to further reduce the amount of capital we would be required to hold for the associated loans in the reference pool under FHFA’s proposed capital framework. Our subsequent CAS REMIC transactions included these updated terms, and we currently expect that our future CAS REMIC transactions will contain similar terms.

Single-Family Problem Loan Management
Our problem loan management strategies are primarily focused on reducing defaults to avoid losses that would otherwise occur and pursuing foreclosure alternatives to mitigate the severity of the losses we incur. See “MD&ASingle-Family BusinessSingle-Family Mortgage Credit Risk ManagementProblem Loan Management” in our 2018 Form 10-K for a discussion of delinquency statistics on our problem loans, efforts undertaken to manage our problem loans, metrics regarding our loan workout activities, real estate owned (“REO”) management and other single-family credit-related disclosures. The discussion below updates some of that information.
Delinquency
The table below displays the delinquency status of loans and changes in the balance of seriously delinquent loans in our single-family conventional guaranty book of business, based on the number of loans. Single-family seriously delinquent loans are loans that are 90 days or more past due or in the foreclosure process.

Our single-family serious delinquency rate decreased as of September 30, 2019 compared with December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018. The decrease in our single-family serious delinquency rate in the first nine months of 2019 was primarily driven by improved loan payment performance and the sale of nonperforming loans. The decline through the first nine months of 2018 was driven primarily by delinquent borrowers in the regions affected by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria (collectively, the “2017 hurricanes”) continuing to resolve their loan delinquencies.
Certain higher-risk loan categories, such as Alt-A loans, loans with mark-to-market LTV ratios greater than 100%, and our 2005 through 2008 loan vintages, continue to exhibit higher-than-average delinquency rates and/or account for a higher share of our credit losses. Single-family loans originated in 2005 through 2008 constituted 4% of our single-family book of business as of September 30, 2019, but constituted 36% of our seriously delinquent single-family loans as of September 30, 2019 and drove 64% of our single-family credit losses in the first nine months of 2019. In addition, loans in certain judicial foreclosure states such as Florida, New Jersey and New York with historically long foreclosure timelines have exhibited higher-than-average delinquency rates and/or account for a higher share of our credit losses.

The table below displays the serious delinquency rates for, and the percentage of our total seriously delinquent single-family conventional loans represented by, the specified loan categories. Percentage of book outstanding calculations are based on the unpaid principal balance of loans for each category divided by the unpaid principal balance of our total single-family conventional guaranty book of business for which we have detailed loan-level information. We also include information for our loans in California, as this state accounts for a large share of our single-family conventional guaranty book of business. The reported categories are not mutually exclusive.

Represents less than 0.5% of single-family conventional business volume or book of business.
(1) 
Calculated based on the number of single-family loans that were seriously delinquent for each category divided by the total number of single-family conventional loans that were seriously delinquent.
(2) 
For a description of our Alt-A loan classification criteria, see “MD&A—Glossary of Terms Used in this Report” in our 2018 Form 10-K.
(3) 
The credit-enhanced categories are not mutually exclusive. A loan with primary mortgage insurance that is also covered by a credit risk transfer transaction will be included in both the “Primary MI & other” category and the “Credit risk transfer” category. As a result, the “Credit enhanced” and “Non-credit enhanced” categories do not sum to 100%. The total percentage of our single-family conventional guaranty book of business with some form of credit enhancement as of September 30, 2019 was 49%.
(4) 
Refers to loans included in an agreement used to reduce credit risk by requiring primary mortgage insurance, collateral, letters of credit, corporate guarantees, or other agreements to provide an entity with some assurance that it will be compensated to some degree in the event of a financial loss. Excludes loans covered by credit risk transfer transactions unless such loans are also covered by primary mortgage insurance.
(5) 
Refers to loans included in reference pools for credit risk transfer transactions, including loans in these transactions that are also covered by primary mortgage insurance. For CAS and some lender risk-sharing transactions, this represents outstanding unpaid principal balance of the underlying loans on the single-family mortgage credit book, not the outstanding reference pool, as of the specified date. Loans included in our credit risk transfer transactions have all been acquired since 2012. Newer vintages typically have significantly lower delinquency rates than more seasoned loans.

Loan Workout Metrics
Our loan workouts reflect:
our home retention solutions, including loan modifications, repayment plans and forbearances; and
foreclosure alternatives, including short sales and deeds-in-lieu of foreclosure.
The chart below displays the unpaid principal balance of our completed single-family loan workouts by type for the first nine months of 2018 compared with the first nine months of 2019, as well as the number of loan workouts for each period.
Loan Workout Activity
(Dollars in billions)
CHART-1E8B1D27AFBA5CD4BCB.JPG
(1) 
Consists of loan modifications and completed repayment plans and forbearances. Repayment plans reflect only those plans associated with loans that were 60 days or more delinquent. Forbearances reflect loans that were 90 days or more delinquent. Excludes trial modifications, loans to certain borrowers who have received bankruptcy relief that are classified as troubled debt restructurings, and repayment and forbearance plans that have been initiated but not completed. There were approximately 13,200 loans in a trial modification period as of September 30, 2019.
(2) 
Consists of short sales and deeds-in-lieu of foreclosure.
The decrease in home retention solutions in the first nine months of 2019 compared with the first nine months of 2018 was primarily driven by improved loan performance and a decrease in the volume of modifications and forbearances granted, which was elevated in 2018 due to the number of borrowers affected by the 2017 hurricanes.

REO Management
If a loan defaults, we acquire the home through foreclosure or a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. The table below displays our foreclosure activity by region. Regional REO acquisition trends generally follow a pattern that is similar to, but lags, that of regional delinquency trends.

(4) 
Calculated as the amount of sale proceeds received on disposition of REO properties during the respective periods, excluding those subject to repurchase requests made to our sellers or servicers, divided by the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the related loans at the time of foreclosure. Net sales price represents the contract sales price less selling costs for the property and other charges paid by the seller at closing.
(5) 
Calculated as the amount of sale proceeds received on properties sold in short sale transactions during the respective periods divided by the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the related loans. Net sales price includes borrower relocation incentive payments and subordinate lien(s) negotiated payoffs.
Single-family REO properties declined in the first nine months of 2019 compared with the first nine months of 2018 primarily due to a reduction in REO acquisitions from serious delinquencies aged greater than 180 days, driven by improved loan performance and nonperforming loan sales.
Other Single-Family Credit Information
Single-Family Credit Loss Performance Metrics
The amount of credit loss or income we realize in a given period is driven by foreclosures, pre-foreclosure sales, REO activity, mortgage loan redesignations and charge-offs, net of recoveries. The table below displays the components of our single-family credit loss performance metrics, as well as our single-family initial charge-off severity rate.
Our credit loss performance metrics are not defined terms within generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and may not be calculated in the same manner as similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We believe these credit loss performance metrics may be useful to investors because they are presented as a percentage of our guaranty book of business and have historically been used by analysts, investors and other companies within the financial services industry.

Basis points are calculated based on the amount of each line item divided by the average single-family conventional guaranty book of business during the period.
(2) 
Credit losses on single-family loans initially charged off during the period divided by the average defaulted unpaid principal balance of those loans. The initial charge-off event is defined as the earliest of (1) when the loan is charged off pursuant to the provisions of the Advisory Bulletin, or (2) when there is a short sale, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or foreclosure of the underlying collateral. This severity rate does not reflect any gains or losses associated with subsequent events, such as REO transactions that occur after we acquire the property.
Our single-family credit losses and credit loss ratio decreased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 compared with the third quarter and first nine months of 2018 primarily due to reduced foreclosures and foreclosure alternatives, lower charge-off expenses on the loans we redesignated from HFI to HFS, and lower charge-off severity rates due to continued home price appreciation.

Multifamily Business
 
Our Multifamily business provides mortgage market liquidity primarily for properties with five or more residential units, which may be apartment communities, cooperative properties, seniors housing, dedicated student housing or manufactured housing communities.
This section supplements and updates information regarding our Multifamily business segment in our 2018 Form 10-K. See “MD&AMultifamily Business” in our 2018 Form 10-K for additional information regarding the primary business activities, customers, competition and market share of our Multifamily business.
Presentation of our multifamily guaranty book of business
For purposes of the information reported in this “Multifamily Business” section, we measure our multifamily guaranty book of business by using the unpaid principal balance of mortgage loans underlying Fannie Mae MBS. By contrast, the multifamily guaranty book of business presented in the “Composition of Fannie Mae Guaranty Book of Business” table in the “Guaranty Book of Business” section is based on the unpaid principal balance of the Fannie Mae MBS outstanding, rather than the unpaid principal balance of the underlying mortgage loans. These amounts differ primarily as a result of payments we receive on underlying loans that have not yet been remitted to the MBS holders. As measured for purposes of the information reported below, the unpaid principal balance of our multifamily guaranty book of business was $329.6 billion as of September 30, 2019 and $305.9 billion as of December 31, 2018.
Multifamily Mortgage Market
National multifamily market fundamentals, which include factors such as vacancy rates and rents, remained steady during the third quarter of 2019, most likely due to ongoing job growth, favorable demographic trends, and renter household formations.
Vacancy rates. Based on preliminary third-party data, the national multifamily vacancy rate for institutional investment-type apartment properties is estimated to have remained at 5.3% at September 30, 2019, which was the same as of June 30, 2019.
Rents. Effective rents are estimated to have increased during the third quarter of 2019, with national asking rents increasing by an estimated 0.8% in the third quarter of 2019, compared with 1.0% during the second quarter of 2019.

Fannie Mae Third Quarter 2019 Form 10-Q

MD&A | Multifamily Business

Continued demand for multifamily rental units during the third quarter of 2019 was reflected in the estimated positive net absorption (that is, the net change in the number of occupied rental units during the time period) of approximately 33,000 units, according to data from Reis, Inc., compared with approximately 49,000 units during the second quarter of 2019.
Vacancy rates and rents are important to loan performance because multifamily loans are generally repaid from the cash flows generated by the underlying property. Several years of improvement in these fundamentals have helped to increase property values in most metropolitan areas. It is estimated that approximately 424,000 new multifamily units will be completed in 2019. The bulk of this new supply is concentrated in a limited number of metropolitan areas. Although multifamily fundamentals remain positive, we believe increasing supply will result in a continuing slowdown in national net absorption rates and effective rents for the remainder of 2019 compared with recent years.
Multifamily Business Metrics
Through the secondary mortgage market, we support rental housing for the workforce population, for senior citizens and students and for families with the greatest economic need. Over 90% of the multifamily units we financed in the third quarter of 2019 were affordable to families earning at or below 120% of the median income in their area, providing support for both workforce housing and affordable housing.

FHFA’s 2019 conservatorship scorecard included an objective to maintain the dollar volume of new multifamily business at or below $35 billion for the year, excluding certain targeted affordable and underserved market business segments such as loans financing energy or water efficiency improvements. Approximately 44% of our multifamily new business volume of $52.1 billion for the first nine months of 2019 counted toward FHFA’s 2019 multifamily volume cap. On September 13, 2019, FHFA announced a revised multifamily business volume cap structure. The new multifamily volume cap, which replaced the prior cap effective October 1, 2019, is $100 billion for the five-quarter period ending December 31, 2020. The new cap applies with no exclusions. In addition, FHFA directed that 37.5% of our multifamily business during that time period must be mission-driven, affordable housing, pursuant to FHFA’s guidelines for mission-driven loans.

Net interest income
Multifamily net interest income is primarily driven by guaranty fee income. Guaranty fee income increased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 as compared with the third quarter and first nine months of 2018 as a result of growth in our multifamily guaranty book of business, partially offset by a decrease in charged guaranty fees on the guaranty book.
CHART-0CC2F01F3EE75EA7A04.JPG
(1) 
Our multifamily guaranty book of business consists of multifamily mortgage loans underlying Fannie Mae MBS outstanding, multifamily mortgage loans of Fannie Mae held in our retained mortgage portfolio, and other credit enhancements that we provide on multifamily mortgage assets. It excludes non-Fannie Mae multifamily mortgage-related securities held in our retained mortgage portfolio for which we do not provide a guaranty.
Our average charged guaranty fee has trended downward from 2018 to 2019, driven by competitive market pressure on guaranty fees charged on newly acquired multifamily loans and liquidations of loans with higher guaranty fees.
Fee and other income
Fee and other income in all periods presented was primarily driven by yield maintenance fees resulting from prepayment activity.

Fair value gains (losses), net
Depending on portfolio activity, our Multifamily business may be in a net buy or net sell position during any given period. Fair value gains in the first nine months of 2019 were primarily driven by gains on commitments to buy multifamily mortgage-related securities as a result of increases in prices as interest rates declined during the commitment periods.
Fair value losses in the third quarter and first nine months of 2018 were primarily driven by losses on commitments to buy multifamily mortgage-related securities as a result of decreases in prices as interest rates rose during the commitment periods.
Multifamily Mortgage Credit Risk Management
This section updates our discussion of multifamily mortgage credit risk management in our 2018 Form 10-K in “MD&AMultifamily BusinessMultifamily Mortgage Credit Risk Management.”
Multifamily Acquisition Policy and Underwriting Standards
Our standards for multifamily loans specify maximum original LTV ratio and minimum original debt service coverage ratio (“DSCR”) values that vary based on loan characteristics. Our experience has been that original LTV ratio and DSCR values have been reliable indicators of future credit performance.
At underwriting, we evaluate the DSCR based on both actual and underwritten debt service payments. Underwritten debt service payments are based on debt service calculations that include both principal and interest payments. The original DSCR for the loan is calculated using these underwritten debt service payments rather than the actual debt service payments, which, depending on the interest rate of the loan and loan structure, may result in a more conservative estimate of the debt service payments. This approach is used for all loans, including those with full and partial interest-only terms.
The following table displays key risk characteristics of our multifamily guaranty book of business.

Consists of mortgage loans that were underwritten with an interest-only term, regardless of whether the loan is currently in its interest-only period.
We provide additional information on the credit characteristics of our multifamily loans in quarterly financial supplements, which we submit to the SEC with current reports on Form 8-K. Information in our quarterly financial supplements is not incorporated by reference into this report.
Transfer of Multifamily Mortgage Credit Risk
Lender risk-sharing is a cornerstone of our Multifamily business. We primarily transfer risk through our Delegated Underwriting and Servicing (“DUS®”) program, which delegates to DUS lenders the ability to underwrite and service multifamily loans, in accordance with our standards and requirements. DUS lenders receive credit risk-related revenues for their respective portion of credit risk retained, and, in turn, are required to fulfill any loss sharing obligation. This aligns the interests of the lender and Fannie Mae throughout the life of the loan.
Our DUS model typically results in our lenders sharing on a pro-rata or tiered basis approximately one-third of the credit risk on our multifamily loans. In the first nine months of 2019, nearly 100% of our new multifamily business volume had lender risk-sharing. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, 98% of the unpaid principal balance of loans in our multifamily guaranty book of business had lender risk-sharing.
To complement our lender risk-sharing program through our DUS model, we engage in multifamily CIRT transactions, pursuant to which we transfer a portion of the mortgage credit risk on multifamily loans in our multifamily guaranty book of business to insurers or reinsurers. As of September 30, 2019, we have completed six multifamily CIRT transactions since the inception of the program, which covered multifamily loans with an unpaid principal balance of approximately $62.0 billion at the time of the transactions. As of September 30, 2019, 18% of the loans in our multifamily guaranty book of business, measured by unpaid principal balance, were covered by a CIRT transaction. We continue to support the growth of the credit risk transfer market and expand the types of loans covered in our credit risk transfer programs.

Multifamily Portfolio Diversification and Monitoring
Diversification within our multifamily book of business by geographic concentration, term to maturity, interest rate structure, borrower concentration, loan size and credit enhancement coverage, are important factors that influence credit performance and help reduce our credit risk.
As part of our ongoing credit risk management process, we and our lenders monitor the performance of our multifamily loans and the underlying properties on an ongoing basis throughout the loan term at the asset and portfolio level. We require lenders to provide quarterly and annual financial updates for the loans for which we are contractually entitled to receive such information. We closely monitor loans with an estimated current DSCR below 1.0, as that is an indicator of heightened default risk. The percentage of loans in our multifamily guaranty book of business, calculated based on unpaid principal balance, with a current DSCR less than 1.0 was approximately 2% as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Our estimates of current DSCRs are based on the latest available income information for these properties and exclude co-op loans. Although we use the most recently available results from our multifamily borrowers, there is a lag in reporting, which typically can range from three to six months, but in some cases may be longer.
In addition to the factors discussed above, we track the following credit risk characteristics to determine loan credit quality indicators, which are the internal risk categories we use and which are further discussed in “Note 3, Mortgage Loans”:
the physical condition of the property;
delinquency status;
the relevant local market and economic conditions that may signal changing risk or return profiles; and
other risk factors.
The percentage of our multifamily loans categorized as substandard based on these characteristics increased throughout 2018, but decreased as of September 30, 2019 as compared with December 31, 2018 and remains at historically low levels. Substandard loans are loans that have a well-defined weakness that could impact the timely full repayment. While the vast majority of the substandard loans in our multifamily guaranty book of business are currently making timely payments, we continue to monitor the performance of the full substandard loan population.
Multifamily Problem Loan Management and Foreclosure Prevention
The multifamily serious delinquency rate was 0.06% as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 and 0.07% as of September 30, 2018. We classify multifamily loans as seriously delinquent when payment is 60 days or more past due.
Other Multifamily Credit Information
Multifamily Credit Loss Performance Metrics
The amount of credit loss or income we realize in a given period is driven by foreclosures, pre-foreclosure sales, REO activity and charge-offs, net of recoveries. Our credit loss performance metrics are not defined terms within GAAP and may not be calculated in the same manner as similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We believe our credit loss performance metrics may be useful to investors because they have historically been used by analysts, investors and other companies within the financial services industry.
We had $5 million in multifamily credit losses in the third quarter of 2019 compared with $7 million in the third quarter of 2018. We had $6 million in multifamily credit losses in the first nine months of 2019 compared with $15 million in the first nine months of 2018.
Credit losses in the third quarter of 2019 were primarily driven by foreclosed property expenses. Credit losses in the first nine months of 2019 were primarily driven by charge-off activity in the second quarter.

See “MD&ALiquidity and Capital ManagementLiquidity Management” and “Risk Factors” in our 2018 Form 10-K for additional information, including discussions of our primary sources and uses of funds, our liquidity and funding risk management practices and contingency planning, factors that influence our debt funding activity, factors that may impact our access to or the cost of our debt funding and factors that could adversely affect our liquidity and funding.
Debt Funding
Outstanding Debt
Total outstanding debt of Fannie Mae includes short-term and long-term debt and excludes debt of consolidated trusts. Short-term debt of Fannie Mae consists of borrowings with an original contractual maturity of one year or less and, therefore, does not include the current portion of long-term debt. Long-term debt of Fannie Mae consists of borrowings with an original contractual maturity of greater than one year.
The chart and table below display information on our outstanding short-term and long-term debt based on original contractual maturity. The increase in our short-term debt from December 31, 2018 to September 30, 2019 was primarily driven by an increase in our acquisition of mortgage loans through our whole loan conduit as mortgage refinance activity increased during the third quarter of 2019. The decrease in our long-term debt from December 31, 2018 to September 30, 2019 was primarily driven by the decline in the size of our retained mortgage portfolio. We did not issue new debt to replace all of our debt that paid off during the first nine months of 2019.

We intend to repay our short-term and long-term debt obligations as they become due primarily through proceeds from the issuance of additional debt securities. We also may use proceeds from our mortgage assets to pay our debt obligations.
For more information on the maturity profile of our outstanding long-term debt, see “Note 7, Short-Term and Long-Term Debt.”
Debt Funding Activity
The table below displays the activity in debt of Fannie Mae. This activity excludes the debt of consolidated trusts and intraday loans. Activity for short-term debt of Fannie Mae relates to borrowings with an original contractual maturity of one year or less while activity for long-term debt of Fannie Mae relates to borrowings with an original contractual maturity of greater than one year. The reported amounts of debt issued and paid off during each period represent the face amount of the debt at issuance and redemption.
The increase in our debt issued and paid off during the third quarter of 2019 compared with the third quarter of 2018 was primarily driven by an increase in our acquisition of mortgage loans through our whole loan conduit as mortgage refinance activity increased during the third quarter of 2019. The decrease in debt issued and paid off during the first nine months of 2019 compared with the first nine months of 2018 was primarily driven by the decline in the size of our retained mortgage portfolio.

Cash Flows
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash increased from $49.4 billion as of December 31, 2018 to $64.5 billion as of September 30, 2019. The increase was primarily driven by cash inflows from (1) proceeds from repayments and sales of loans, (2) the sale of Fannie Mae MBS to third parties, and (3) the net decrease in federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell or similar agreements.
Partially offsetting these cash inflows were cash outflows primarily from (1) payments on outstanding debt of consolidated trusts, (2) purchases of loans held for investment, and (3) the redemption of funding debt, which outpaced issuances, due to lower funding needs.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash decreased from $60.3 billion as of December 31, 2017 to $51.0 billion as of September 30, 2018. The decrease was primarily driven by cash outflows from (1) the redemption of funding debt, which outpaced issuances, due to lower funding needs, (2) the purchase of Fannie Mae MBS from third parties, and (3) the acquisition of delinquent loans out of MBS trusts.
Partially offsetting these cash outflows were cash inflows from, among other things, (1) the sale of Fannie Mae MBS to third parties and (2) proceeds from repayments and sales of loans of Fannie Mae.

Accordingly, no dividends were payable to Treasury for the third quarter of 2019 and none are payable for the fourth quarter of 2019. As of September 30, 2019, our net worth was $10.3 billion.
Under the modified liquidation preference provisions of the senior preferred stock described in “Legislation and Regulation—Letter Agreement with Treasury,” the aggregate liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock increased from $123.8 billion as of June 30, 2019 to $127.2 billion as of September 30, 2019, and will further increase to $131.2 billion as of December 31, 2019.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
Our off-balance sheet arrangements result primarily from the following:
our guaranty of mortgage loan securitization and resecuritization transactions, and other guaranty commitments, over which we do not have control;
liquidity support transactions; and
partnership interests.
Since we began issuing UMBS in June 2019, some of the securities we issue are structured securities backed, in whole or in part, by Freddie Mac securities. When we issue a structured security, we provide a guaranty that we will supplement amounts received from the underlying mortgage-related security as required to permit timely payment of principal and interest on the certificates related to the resecuritization trust. Accordingly, when we issue structured securities backed in whole or in part by Freddie Mac securities, we extend our guaranty to the underlying Freddie Mac security included in the structured security. Our issuance of structured securities backed in whole or in part by Freddie Mac securities creates additional off-balance sheet exposure as we do not have control over the Freddie Mac mortgage loan securitizations. Because we do not have the power to direct matters (primarily the servicing of mortgage loans) that impact the credit risk to which we are exposed, which constitute control of these securitization trusts, we do not consolidate these trusts in our condensed consolidated balance sheet, giving rise to off-balance sheet exposure.
The total amount of our off-balance sheet exposure related to unconsolidated Fannie Mae MBS net of any beneficial interest that we retain, and other financial guarantees was $48.5 billion as of September 30, 2019. Approximately $23.0 billion of this amount consisted of the unpaid principal balance of Freddie Mac-issued UMBS backing Fannie Mae-issued Supers. Additionally, off-balance sheet exposure includes approximately $5.9 billion of the unpaid principal balance of Freddie Mac securities backing Fannie Mae-issued REMICs; however, a portion of these Freddie Mac securities may be backed in whole or in part by Fannie Mae MBS. Therefore, our total exposure to Freddie Mac securities included in Fannie Mae REMIC collateral may be lower. We expect our off-balance sheet exposure to Freddie Mac securities to increase as we issue more structured securities backed by Freddie Mac securities in the future. The total amount of our off-balance sheet exposure related to unconsolidated Fannie Mae MBS and other financial guarantees was $21.1 billion as of December 31, 2018. We did not have any Freddie Mac-issued UMBS backing Fannie Mae structured securities as of December 31, 2018.
We also have off-balance sheet exposure to losses from liquidity support transactions and partnership interests.
Our total outstanding liquidity commitments to advance funds for securities backed by multifamily housing revenue bonds totaled $7.4 billion as of September 30, 2019 and $8.3 billion as of December 31, 2018. These commitments require us to advance funds to third parties that enable them to repurchase tendered bonds or securities that are unable to be remarketed. We hold cash and cash equivalents in our other investments portfolio in excess of these commitments to advance funds.
We make investments in various limited partnerships and similar legal entities, which consist of low-income housing tax credit investments, community investments and other entities. When we do not have a controlling financial interest in those entities, our condensed consolidated balance sheets reflect only our investment rather than the full amount of the partnership’s assets and liabilities.

MD&A | Risk Management


Risk Management
 
Our business activities expose us to the following major categories of risk: credit risk (including mortgage credit risk and institutional counterparty credit risk), market risk (including interest rate risk), liquidity and funding risk, and operational risk (including cyber/information security risk, third-party risk and model risk), as well as strategic risk, compliance risk and reputational risk. See “MD&ARisk Management” in our 2018 Form 10-K for a discussion of our management of these risks. This section supplements and updates that discussion but does not repeat all of the risk management categories described in our 2018 Form 10-K.
Institutional Counterparty Credit Risk Management
This section supplements and updates our discussion of institutional counterparty credit risk management in our 2018 Form 10-K. See “MD&ARisk ManagementInstitutional Counterparty Credit Risk Management” and “Risk Factors—Credit Risk” in our 2018 Form 10-K for additional information, including our exposure to institutional counterparty credit risk and our strategy for managing this risk.
Counterparty Credit Risk Exposure arising from the Resecuritization of Freddie Mac-issued Securities
We began resecuritizing Freddie Mac-issued securities in connection with the implementation of the Single Security Initiative in June 2019, which has increased our credit risk exposure and operational risk exposure to Freddie Mac, and our risk exposure to Freddie Mac is expected to increase as we issue more structured securities backed by Freddie Mac securities going forward. Our inclusion of Freddie Mac securities as collateral for the structured securities that we issue increases our counterparty credit risk exposure to Freddie Mac. In the event Freddie Mac were to fail (for credit or operational reasons) to make a payment on a payment date on Freddie Mac securities that we had resecuritized in a Fannie Mae-issued structured security, we would be responsible for making the entire payment on the Freddie Mac securities included in that structured security in order to make payments on any of our outstanding single-family Fannie Mae MBS to be paid on that payment date. Accordingly, as the amount of structured securities we issue that are backed by Freddie Mac securities grows, if Freddie Mac were to fail to meet its obligations to us under the terms of these securities, it could have a material adverse effect on our earnings and financial condition. We believe the risk of default by Freddie Mac is negligible because of the funding commitment available to Freddie Mac through its senior preferred stock purchase agreement with Treasury.
As of September 30, 2019, approximately $28.9 billion in Freddie Mac securities were backing Fannie Mae-issued structured securities. We had no such transactions or activity in 2018. See “Uniform Mortgage-Backed Securities” and “Risk Factors” in this report for more information on UMBS and the risks associated with the Single Security Initiative.
Market Risk Management, Including Interest Rate Risk Management
This section supplements and updates information regarding market risk management in our 2018 Form 10-K. See “MD&ARisk ManagementMarket Risk Management, Including Interest Rate Risk Management” and “Risk Factors” in our 2018 Form 10-K for additional information, including our sources of interest rate risk exposure, business risks posed by changes in interest rates, and our strategy for managing interest rate risk.
Measurement of Interest Rate Risk

(1) 
Computed based on changes in U.S. LIBOR interest rates swap curve. Changes in the level of interest rates assume a parallel shift in all maturities of the U.S. LIBOR interest rate swap curve. Changes in the slope of the yield curve assume a constant 7-year rate, a shift of 16.7 basis points for the 1-year rate (and shorter tenors) and an opposite shift of 8.3 basis points for the 30-year rate. Rate shocks for remaining maturity points are interpolated.
(2) 
Measured on the last business day of each period presented.
(3) 
Computed based on daily values during the period presented.
The market value sensitivity of our net portfolio varies across a range of interest rate shocks depending upon the duration and convexity profile of our net portfolio. Because the effective duration gap of our net portfolio was close to zero years in the periods presented, the convexity exposure was the primary driver of the market value sensitivity of our net portfolio as of September 30, 2019. In addition, the convexity exposure may result in similar market value sensitivities for positive and negative interest rate shocks of the same magnitude.
We use derivatives to help manage the residual interest rate risk exposure between our assets and liabilities. Derivatives have enabled us to keep our interest rate risk exposure at consistently low levels in a wide range of interest-rate environments. The table below displays an example of how derivatives impacted the net market value exposure for a 50 basis point parallel interest rate shock.

MD&A | Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make a number of judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income and expenses in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Understanding our accounting policies and the extent to which we use management judgment and estimates in applying these policies is integral to understanding our financial statements. We describe our most significant accounting policies in “Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in this report and in our 2018 Form 10-K.
We evaluate our critical accounting estimates and judgments required by our policies on an ongoing basis and update them as necessary based on changing conditions. We previously identified our fair value measurement as a critical accounting estimate due to the subjectivity of the unobservable inputs used to measure Level 3 assets and liabilities recorded at fair value. However, because the amount of Level 3 assets and liabilities that we report at fair value has continued to decline, using reasonably different estimates and assumptions in valuing these assets and liabilities would not have a material impact on our reported results of operations or financial condition. Consequently, we no longer consider our fair value measurement a critical accounting estimate.
We continue to identify the allowance for loan losses as critical because it involves significant judgments and assumptions about highly complex and inherently uncertain matters, and the use of reasonably different estimates and assumptions could have a material impact on our reported results of operations or financial condition. See “MD&A—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our 2018 Form 10-K for more discussion of our allowance for loan losses. See “Risk Factors” in our 2018 Form 10-K for a discussion of the risks associated with the need for management to make judgments and estimates in applying our accounting policies and methods.
Impact of Future Adoption of New Accounting Guidance
 
We identify and discuss the expected impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements of recently issued accounting guidance in “Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.”

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


FANNIE MAE
(In conservatorship)
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
We are a stockholder-owned corporation organized and existing under the Federal National Mortgage Association Charter Act (the “Charter Act” or our “charter”). We are a government-sponsored enterprise (“GSE”), and we are subject to government oversight and regulation. Our regulators include the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”), the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”), the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and the U.S. Department of the Treasury (“Treasury”). The U.S. government does not guarantee our securities or other obligations.
We have been under conservatorship, with FHFA acting as conservator, since September 6, 2008. See below and “Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (“2018 Form 10-K”) for additional information on our conservatorship and the impact of U.S. government support of our business.
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and related notes, should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our 2018 Form 10-K.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the SEC’s instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts as well as the accounts of other entities in which we have a controlling financial interest. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. To conform to our current period presentation, we have reclassified certain amounts reported in our prior period condensed consolidated financial statements. Results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 may not necessarily be indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2019.
Use of Estimates
Preparing condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect our reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates of our condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as our reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management has made significant estimates in a variety of areas including, but not limited to, the allowance for loan losses. Actual results could be different from these estimates.
Conservatorship
On September 7, 2008, the Secretary of the Treasury and the Director of FHFA announced several actions taken by Treasury and FHFA regarding Fannie Mae, which included: (1) placing us in conservatorship and (2) the execution of a senior preferred stock purchase agreement by our conservator, on our behalf, and Treasury, pursuant to which we issued to Treasury both senior preferred stock and a warrant to purchase common stock.
On September 5, 2019, Treasury released its plan to reform the housing finance system. The Treasury Housing Reform Plan (the “Treasury plan”) is far-reaching in scope and could have a significant impact on our structure, our role in the secondary mortgage market, our capitalization, our business and our competitive environment. The Treasury plan includes recommendations relating to ending our conservatorship, amending our senior preferred stock purchase agreement with Treasury, considering additional restrictions and requirements on our business, and many other matters. The Treasury plan recommends that Treasury’s commitment to provide funding under the senior preferred stock purchase agreement should be replaced with legislation that authorizes an explicit, paid-for guarantee backed by the full faith and credit of the Federal Government that is limited to the timely payment of principal and interest on qualifying MBS. The Treasury plan further recommends that, pending legislation, even after conservatorship Treasury should maintain its ongoing commitment to support our single-family and multifamily mortgage-backed securities through the senior preferred stock purchase agreement, as amended as contemplated by the plan.
There continues to be significant uncertainty regarding our future, including how long we will continue to exist in our current form, the extent of our role in the market, how long we will be in conservatorship, what form we will have and what ownership

interest, if any, our current common and preferred stockholders will hold in us after the conservatorship is terminated and whether we will continue to exist following conservatorship. Treasury has made a commitment under the senior preferred stock purchase agreement to provide funding to us under certain circumstances if we have a net worth deficit. We are not aware of any plans of FHFA (1) to fundamentally change our business model, other than changes that might result from recommendations in the Treasury plan, if implemented, or (2) to reduce the aggregate amount available to or held by the company under our capital structure, which includes the senior preferred stock purchase agreement.
Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and Senior Preferred Stock
Treasury has made a commitment under the senior preferred stock purchase agreement to provide funding to us under certain circumstances if we have a net worth deficit. Pursuant to the senior preferred stock purchase agreement, we have received a total of $119.8 billion from Treasury as of September 30, 2019, and the amount of remaining funding available to us under the agreement was $113.9 billion.
Pursuant to the senior preferred stock purchase agreement, we issued shares of senior preferred stock in 2008. On September 27, 2019, we, through FHFA acting on our behalf in its capacity as our conservator, and Treasury entered into a letter agreement modifying the dividend and liquidation preference provisions of the senior preferred stock. These modifications and other specified provisions of the letter agreement are described below.
Modification to Dividend ProvisionsIncrease in Applicable Capital Reserve Amount. The terms of the senior preferred stock provide for dividends each quarter in the amount, if any, by which our net worth as of the end of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter exceeds the applicable capital reserve amount. The letter agreement modified the dividend provisions of the senior preferred stock to increase the applicable capital reserve amount from $3 billion to $25 billion, effective for dividend periods beginning July 1, 2019.
As a result of this change to the senior preferred stock dividend provisions:
No dividends were payable on the senior preferred stock for the third quarter of 2019, as our net worth of $6.4 billion as of June 30, 2019 was lower than the $25 billion capital reserve amount.
No dividends will be payable on the senior preferred stock for the fourth quarter of 2019, as our net worth of $10.3 billion as of September 30, 2019 is lower than the $25 billion capital reserve amount.
Modification to Liquidation Preference ProvisionsIncrease in Liquidation Preference. The letter agreement provides that, on September 30, 2019, and at the end of each fiscal quarter thereafter, the liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock will increase by an amount equal to the increase in our net worth, if any, during the immediately prior fiscal quarter, until such time as the liquidation preference has increased by $22 billion.
As a result of this change to the senior preferred stock liquidation preference provisions:
The aggregate liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock increased from $123.8 billion as of June 30, 2019 to $127.2 billion as of September 30, 2019, due to the $3.4 billion increase in our net worth during the second quarter of 2019.
The aggregate liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock will increase from $127.2 billion as of September 30, 2019 to $131.2 billion as of December 31, 2019, due to the $4.0 billion increase in our net worth during the third quarter of 2019.
Agreement to Amend Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement to Enhance Taxpayer Protections. The letter agreement provides that we and Treasury agree to negotiate and execute an additional amendment to the senior preferred stock purchase agreement that further enhances taxpayer protections by adopting covenants broadly consistent with recommendations for administrative reform contained in the Treasury plan.
See “Note 11, Equity (Deficit)” in our 2018 Form 10-K for additional information about the senior preferred stock purchase agreement and the senior preferred stock.
Principles of Consolidation
Our condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts as well as the accounts of the other entities in which we have a controlling financial interest. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The typical condition for a controlling financial interest is ownership of a majority of the voting interests of an entity. A controlling financial interest may also exist in entities through arrangements that do not involve voting interests, such as a variable interest entity (“VIE”).

Single Security Initiative and UMBS
The Single Security Initiative was a joint initiative among Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and our jointly owned limited liability company, Common Securitization Solutions, LLC (“CSS”), under the direction of FHFA, to develop a single common mortgage-backed security issued by both Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to finance fixed-rate mortgage loans backed by one- to four-unit single-family properties. We and Freddie Mac began issuing uniform mortgage-backed securities (“UMBS”) pursuant to the Single Security Initiative in June 2019. We and Freddie Mac also began resecuritizing UMBS certificates into structured securities in June 2019. The structured securities backed by UMBS that we may issue include Supers, which are single-class resecuritization transactions, and Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit securities (“REMICs”) and interest-only and principal-only strip securities (“SMBS”), which are multi-class resecuritization transactions.
Since the implementation of the Single Security Initiative in June 2019, we have been able to include UMBS, Supers and other structured securities issued by Freddie Mac in some of our resecuritization trusts. The mortgage loans that serve as collateral for Freddie Mac-issued UMBS are not held in trusts that are consolidated by Fannie Mae. When we include Freddie Mac securities in our structured securities, we are subject to additional credit risk because we guarantee securities that were not previously guaranteed by Fannie Mae. However, Freddie Mac continues to guarantee the payment of principal and interest on the underlying Freddie Mac securities that we have resecuritized. We have concluded that this additional credit risk is negligible because of the funding commitment available to Freddie Mac through its senior preferred stock purchase agreement with Treasury. Prior to the implementation of the Single Security Initiative, the vast majority of underlying assets of our resecuritization trusts were limited to Fannie Mae securities that were collateralized by mortgage loans held in consolidated trusts.
Single-Class Resecuritization Trusts
Fannie Mae single-class resecuritization trusts are created by depositing mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) into a new securitization trust for the purpose of aggregating multiple mortgage-related securities into a single security. Single-class resecuritization securities pass through directly to the holders of the securities all of the cash flows of the underlying mortgage-backed securities held in the resecuritization trust. With the implementation of the Single Security Initiative, these securities can now be collateralized directly or indirectly by cash flows from underlying securities issued by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, or a combination of both. Resecuritization trusts backed directly or indirectly only by Fannie Mae MBS are non-commingled resecuritization trusts. Resecuritization trusts collateralized directly or indirectly by cash flows either in part or in whole from Freddie Mac securities are commingled resecuritization trusts.
Securities issued by our non-commingled single-class resecuritization trusts are backed solely by Fannie Mae MBS and the guarantee we provide on the trust does not subject us to additional credit risk because we have already provided a guarantee on the underlying securities. Further, the securities issued by our non-commingled single-class resecuritization trusts pass through all of the cash flows of the underlying Fannie Mae MBS directly to the holders of the securities. Accordingly, these securities are deemed to be substantially the same as the underlying Fannie Mae MBS collateral. Additionally, our involvement with these trusts does not provide us with any incremental rights or powers that would enable us to direct any activities of the trusts. As a result, we have concluded that we are not the primary beneficiaries of, and as a result, we do not consolidate, our non-commingled single-class resecuritization trusts. Therefore, we account for purchases and sales of securities issued by non-commingled single-class resecuritization trusts as extinguishments and issuances of the underlying MBS debt, respectively.
Securities issued by our commingled single-class resecuritization trusts are backed in whole or in part by Freddie Mac securities. The guaranty we provide to the commingled single-class resecuritization trust subjects us to additional credit risk because we are providing a guaranty for the timely payment of principal and interest on the underlying Freddie Mac securities that we have not previously guaranteed. Accordingly, securities issued by our commingled resecuritization trusts are not deemed to be substantially the same as the underlying collateral. We do not have any incremental rights or powers related to commingled single-class resecuritization trusts that would enable us to direct any activities of the underlying trusts. As a result, we have concluded that we are not the primary beneficiary of, and therefore do not consolidate, our commingled single-class resecuritization trusts unless we have the unilateral right to dissolve the trust. We have this right when we hold 100% of the beneficial interests issued by the resecuritization trust. Therefore, we account for purchases and sales of these securities as purchases and sales of investment securities.
Multi-Class Resecuritization Trusts
Multi-class resecuritization trusts are trusts we create to issue multi-class Fannie Mae structured securities, including REMICs and SMBS, in which the cash flows of the underlying mortgage assets are divided, creating several classes of securities, each of which represents a beneficial ownership interest in a separate portion of cash flows. We guarantee to each multi-class resecuritization trust that we will supplement amounts received by the trusts as required to permit timely payments of principal and interest, as applicable, on the related Fannie Mae structured securities. With the implementation of the Single Security Initiative, these multi-class structured securities can now be collateralized, directly or indirectly, by securities issued by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, or a combination of both.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


The guaranty we provide to our non-commingled multi-class resecuritization trusts does not subject us to additional credit risk, because the underlying assets are Fannie Mae-issued securities for which we have already provided a guaranty. However, for commingled multi-class structured securities, we are subject to additional credit risk because we are providing a guaranty for the timely payment of principal and interest on the underlying Freddie Mac securities that we have not previously guaranteed. For both commingled and non-commingled multi-class resecuritization trusts, we may also be exposed to prepayment risk via our ownership of securities issued by these trusts. We do not have the ability via our involvement with a multi-class resecuritization trust to impact either the credit risk or prepayment risk to which we are exposed. Therefore, we have concluded that we do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest and do not consolidate multi-class resecuritization trusts unless we have the unilateral right to dissolve the trust as noted below.
Securities issued by multi-class resecuritization trusts do not directly pass through all of the cash flows of the underlying securities and therefore the issued and underlying securities are not considered substantially the same. Accordingly, if a multi-class resecuritization trust is not consolidated, we account for purchases and sales of securities issued by the trust as purchases and sales of investment securities.
Since the implementation of the Single Security Initiative in June 2019, we may now include UMBS, Supers and other structured securities backed by securities issued by Freddie Mac in our resecuritization trusts. As a result, we adopted a consolidation threshold for multi-class resecuritization trusts that is based on our ability to unilaterally dissolve the resecuritization trust. This ability exists only when we hold 100% of the outstanding beneficial interests issued by the resecuritization trust. This new consolidation threshold was applied prospectively upon implementation of the Single Security Initiative in the second quarter of 2019 and prior period amounts were not recast. Prior to the implementation of the Single Security Initiative, we consolidated multi-class resecuritization trusts when we held a substantial portion of the outstanding beneficial interests issued by the trust. Our adoption of the new consolidation threshold did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Regulatory Capital
We submit capital reports to FHFA, which monitors our capital levels. The deficit of core capital over statutory minimum capital was $133.8 billion as of September 30, 2019 and $137.1 billion as of December 31, 2018.
Related Parties
Because Treasury holds a warrant to purchase shares of Fannie Mae common stock equal to 79.9% of the total number of shares of Fannie Mae common stock, we and Treasury are deemed related parties. As of September 30, 2019, Treasury held an investment in our senior preferred stock with an aggregate liquidation preference of $127.2 billion. See “Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and Senior Preferred Stock” above for additional information on transactions under this agreement.
FHFA’s control of both Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac has caused Fannie Mae, FHFA and Freddie Mac to be deemed related parties. Additionally, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac jointly own CSS, a limited liability company created to operate a common securitization platform; as such, CSS is deemed a related party.
In the ordinary course of business, Fannie Mae may purchase and sell securities issued by Treasury and Freddie Mac. These transactions occur on the same terms as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unrelated parties. With our implementation of the Single Security Initiative in June 2019, some of the structured securities we issue are backed in whole or in part by Freddie Mac securities. Additionally, we make regular income tax payments to and receive tax refunds from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), a bureau of Treasury.
Transactions with Treasury
Our administrative expenses were reduced by $5 million and $6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $15 million and $19 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, due to reimbursements from Treasury and Freddie Mac for expenses incurred as program administrator for Treasury’s Home Affordable Modification Program and other initiatives under Treasury’s Making Home Affordable Program.
In December 2011, Congress enacted the Temporary Payroll Cut Continuation Act of 2011 (“TCCA”) which, among other provisions, required that we increase our single-family guaranty fees by at least 10 basis points and remit this increase to Treasury. Effective April 1, 2012, we increased the guaranty fee on all single-family residential mortgages delivered to us by 10 basis points. FHFA and Treasury advised us to remit this fee increase to Treasury with respect to all loans acquired by us on or after April 1, 2012 and before January 1, 2022, and to continue to remit these amounts to Treasury on and after January 1, 2022 with respect to loans we acquired before this date until those loans are paid off or otherwise liquidated. The resulting fee revenue and expense are recorded in “Mortgage loans interest income” and “TCCA fees,” respectively, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. We recognized $613 million and $576 million in TCCA fees during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $1.8 billion and $1.7 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, of which $613 million had not been remitted to Treasury as of September 30, 2019.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Under the Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992, as amended, including by the Federal Housing Finance Regulatory Reform Act of 2008 (together, the “GSE Act”), we are required to set aside certain funding obligations, a portion of which is attributable to Treasury’s Capital Magnet Fund. These funding obligations, recognized in “Other expenses, net” in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, are measured as the product of 4.2 basis points and the unpaid principal balance of our total new business purchases for the respective period, and 35% of this amount is payable to Treasury’s Capital Magnet Fund. We recognized a total of $32 million and $20 million in “Other expenses, net” for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $68 million and $57 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, relating to amounts payable to Treasury’s Capital Magnet Fund. In 2020, we expect to pay the $68 million recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to Treasury’s Capital Magnet Fund, along with additional amounts based on our new business purchases in the fourth quarter of 2019. In April 2019, we paid $75 million to Treasury’s Capital Magnet Fund based on our new business purchases in 2018.
On September 27, 2019, we, through FHFA acting on our behalf in its capacity as our conservator, and Treasury entered into a letter agreement modifying the dividend and liquidation preference provisions of the senior preferred stock held by Treasury. These modifications and other specified provisions of the letter agreement are described under “Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and Senior Preferred Stock” above.
Transactions with FHFA
The GSE Act authorizes FHFA to establish an annual assessment for regulated entities, including Fannie Mae, which is payable on a semi-annual basis (April and October), for FHFA’s costs and expenses, as well as to maintain FHFA’s working capital. We recognized FHFA assessment fees, which are recorded in “Administrative expenses” in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, of $30 million and $26 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $89 million and $81 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Transactions with CSS and Freddie Mac
We contributed capital to CSS, the company we jointly own with Freddie Mac, of $22 million and $33 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $84 million and $109 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. In the second quarter of 2019, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and CSS entered into an amendment to the customer services agreement that sets forth the terms under which CSS provides mortgage securitization services to us and Freddie Mac. In June 2019, we entered into an indemnification agreement with Freddie Mac relating to the commingled structured securities that we and Freddie Mac issue. Under the indemnification agreement, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac each have agreed to indemnify the other party for losses caused by: its failure to meet its payment or other specified obligations under the trust agreements pursuant to which the underlying resecuritized securities were issued; its failure to meet its obligations under the customer services agreement; its violations of laws; or with respect to material misstatements or omissions in offering documents, ongoing disclosures and related materials relating to the underlying resecuritized securities.
Earnings per Share
Earnings per share (“EPS”) is presented for basic and diluted EPS. We compute basic EPS by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. However, as a result of our conservatorship status and the terms of the senior preferred stock, no amounts would be available to distribute as dividends to common or preferred stockholders (other than to Treasury as the holder of the senior preferred stock). Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders excludes amounts attributable to the senior preferred stock, which increase the liquidation preference as described above in “Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and Senior Preferred Stock.” Weighted average common shares includes 4.6 billion shares for the periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 that would be issued upon the full exercise of the warrant issued to Treasury from the date the warrant was issued through September 30, 2019 and 2018.
The calculation of diluted EPS includes all the components of basic earnings per share, plus the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents such as convertible securities and stock options. Weighted average shares outstanding is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares had been issued. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 convertible preferred stock is not included in the calculation because a net loss attributable to common shareholders was incurred and it would have an anti-dilutive effect. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 and the three months ended September 30, 2018, our diluted EPS weighted average shares outstanding includes shares of common stock that would be issuable upon the conversion of 131 million shares of convertible preferred stock.

New Accounting Guidance
The following updates information about our significant accounting policies that have recently been adopted or are yet to be adopted from the information included in “Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our 2018 Form 10-K.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments in June 2016. It was amended by ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements (to Topic 326), Financial Instruments—Credit Losses in April 2019. These ASUs (the “CECL standard”) replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects lifetime expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to develop credit loss estimates. The amendments in this standard also require credit losses related to available-for-sale (“AFS”) debt securities to be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. We do not expect a material impact for establishing an allowance for credit losses related to our AFS debt securities.
The CECL standard will become effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2020. We are currently performing full integrated testing across all models, accounting systems and processes that will be used to estimate credit losses and record accounting impacts under the CECL standard. All updates to our credit loss models are subject to our model oversight and review governance process. We are managing the implementation of this guidance in accordance with our change management governance standards, which are designed to ensure compliance with GAAP as well as operational readiness at adoption. Senior management and the Audit Committee receive regular updates regarding the status of our implementation plan, results of modeled impacts and any identified key risks.
We will use a discounted cash flow method to measure expected credit losses on our single-family mortgage loans and an undiscounted loss method to measure expected credit losses on our multifamily mortgage loans. The models we will use to estimate credit losses will incorporate our historical credit loss experience, adjusted for current economic forecasts and the current credit profile of our loan book of business. The models will use reasonable and supportable forecasts for key economic drivers, such as home prices (Single-Family), rental income (Multifamily) and capitalization rates (Multifamily).
Based on the composition of the loans in our book of business as of September 30, 2019 and our current expectations of future economic conditions, we estimate that our adoption of the CECL standard will result in a reduction in our retained earnings of up to $2 billion on an after-tax basis in the first quarter of 2020. Our estimated impact upon adoption has been
refined over the last quarter to incorporate updated economic conditions and the resolution of various implementation items, including the exclusion of certain pre-foreclosure costs from our estimated allowance for credit losses. We continue to monitor and will assess the impact of further implementation guidance that may be issued. In addition, we continue to evaluate our modeled loss estimates and may make refinements to our approach and assumptions as a part of our overall integrated testing efforts. The impact of our adoption of the CECL standard on our retained earnings will be further influenced by the credit risk profile of the loans in our book of business as of the January 1, 2020 adoption date, as well as changes in economic conditions and our forecasts of future economic conditions at that time.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements | Consolidations and Transfers of Financial Assets


2.  Consolidations and Transfers of Financial Assets
We have interests in various entities that are considered to be variable interest entities (“VIEs”). The primary types of entities are securitization and resecuritization trusts, limited partnerships and special purpose vehicles (“SPVs”). These interests include investments in securities issued by VIEs, such as Fannie Mae MBS created pursuant to our securitization transactions and our guaranty to the entity. We consolidate the substantial majority of our single-class securitization trusts because our role as guarantor and master servicer provides us with the power to direct matters (primarily the servicing of mortgage loans) that impact the credit risk to which we are exposed. In contrast, we do not consolidate single-class securitization trusts when other organizations have the power to direct these activities. Historically, the vast majority of underlying assets of our resecuritization trusts were limited to Fannie Mae securities that were collateralized by mortgage loans held in consolidated trusts. However, beginning with the implementation of the Single Security Initiative in June 2019, we include securities issued by Freddie Mac in some of our resecuritization trusts. The mortgage loans that serve as collateral for Freddie Mac-issued UMBS are not held in trusts that are consolidated by Fannie Mae.
Unconsolidated VIEs
We do not consolidate VIEs when we are not deemed to be the primary beneficiary. Our unconsolidated VIEs include securitization trusts, limited partnerships, and certain SPVs designed to transfer credit risk. The following table displays the carrying amount and classification of our assets and liabilities that relate to our involvement with unconsolidated securitization and resecuritization trusts.

Our maximum exposure to loss generally represents the greater of our recorded investment in the entity or the unpaid principal balance of the assets covered by our guaranty. Our involvement in unconsolidated resecuritization trusts may give rise to additional exposure to loss depending on the type of resecuritization trust. Fannie Mae non-commingled resecuritization trusts refers to our resecuritization trusts that are backed entirely by Fannie Mae MBS. These non-commingled single-class and multi-class resecuritization trusts that are not consolidated do not give rise to any additional exposure to loss as we already consolidate the underlying collateral.
Fannie Mae commingled resecuritization trusts refers to our resecuritization trusts that are backed in whole or in part by Freddie Mac securities. The guaranty that we provide to these commingled resecuritization trusts increases our exposure to loss relating to the Freddie Mac securities that serve as the underlying collateral. Our maximum exposure to loss for these unconsolidated trusts is measured by the amount of Freddie Mac securities that back these resecuritization trusts. However, a portion of these Freddie Mac securities may be backed in whole or in part by Fannie Mae MBS. Therefore, to the extent that these Freddie Mac securities are backed by Fannie Mae MBS, it would not give rise to any additional exposure and our total exposure to collateral that is ultimately guaranteed by Freddie Mac may be lower than the disclosed maximum exposure to loss. Our maximum exposure to loss related to unconsolidated securitization and resecuritization trusts was approximately $41 billion and $14 billion as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The total assets of our unconsolidated securitization and resecuritization trusts were approximately $100 billion and $80 billion as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
The maximum exposure to loss for our unconsolidated limited partnerships and similar legal entities, which consist of low-income housing tax credit investments (“LIHTC”), community investments and other entities, was $93 million and the related carrying value was $70 million as of September 30, 2019. As of December 31, 2018, the maximum exposure to loss was $111

Fannie Mae (In conservatorship) Third Quarter 2019 Form 10-Q

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements | Consolidations and Transfers of Financial Assets


million and the related carrying value was $89 million. The total assets of these limited partnership investments were $2.3 billion as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
The maximum exposure to loss related to our involvement with unconsolidated SPVs that transfer credit risk represents the unpaid principal balance and accrued interest payable of obligations issued by the Connecticut Avenue Securities (“CAS”) SPVs. The maximum exposure to loss related to these unconsolidated SPVs was $6.5 billion and $920 million as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The total assets related to these unconsolidated SPVs were $6.5 billion and $931 million as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
The unpaid principal balance of our multifamily loan portfolio was $318.1 billion as of September 30, 2019. As our lending relationship does not provide us with a controlling financial interest in the borrower entity, we do not consolidate these borrowers regardless of their status as either a VIE or a voting interest entity. We have excluded these entities from our VIE disclosures. However, the disclosures we have provided in “Note 3, Mortgage Loans,” “Note 4, Allowance for Loan Losses” and “Note 6, Financial Guarantees” with respect to this population are consistent with the FASB’s stated objectives for the disclosures related to unconsolidated VIEs.
Transfers of Financial Assets
We issue Fannie Mae MBS through portfolio securitization transactions by transferring pools of mortgage loans or mortgage-related securities to one or more trusts or special purpose entities. We are considered to be the transferor when we transfer assets from our own retained mortgage portfolio in a portfolio securitization transaction. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the unpaid principal balance of portfolio securitizations was $89.0 billion and $64.9 billion, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the unpaid principal balance of portfolio securitizations was $187.7 billion and $180.8 billion, respectively.
We retain interests from the transfer and sale of mortgage-related securities to unconsolidated single-class and multi-class portfolio securitization trusts. As of September 30, 2019, the unpaid principal balance of retained interests was $3.1 billion and its related fair value was $4.2 billion. As of December 31, 2018, the unpaid principal balance of retained interests was $1.5 billion and its related fair value was $2.2 billion. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the principal, interest and other fees received on retained interests was $187 million and $114 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the principal, interest and other fees received on retained interests was $425 million and $468 million, respectively.
Managed Loans
Managed loans primarily include loans that are guaranteed or insured, in whole or in part, by the U.S. government. For those loans that we have securitized in unconsolidated portfolio securitization trusts, the outstanding unpaid principal balance was $1.1 billion as of September 30, 2019 and $1.2 billion as of December 31, 2018. For information regarding on-balance sheet managed loans, see “Note 3, Mortgage Loans.”

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements | Mortgage Loans


3.  Mortgage Loans
We own single-family mortgage loans, which are secured by four or fewer residential dwelling units, and multifamily mortgage loans, which are secured by five or more residential dwelling units. We classify these loans as either held for investment (“HFI”) or held for sale (“HFS”). We report the carrying value of HFI loans at the unpaid principal balance, net of unamortized premiums and discounts, other cost basis adjustments, and an allowance for loan losses. We report the carrying value of HFS loans at the lower of cost or fair value and record valuation changes in “Investment gains, net” in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. We define the recorded investment of HFI loans as unpaid principal balance, net of unamortized premiums and discounts, other cost basis adjustments, and accrued interest receivable.
For purposes of the single-family mortgage loan disclosures below, we define “primary” class as mortgage loans that are not included in other loan classes; “government” class as mortgage loans that are guaranteed or insured, in whole or in part, by the U.S. government, and that are not Alt-A; and “other” class as loans with certain higher-risk characteristics, such as interest-only loans and negative-amortizing loans, that are neither government nor Alt-A.

Represents the carrying value of the loans after redesignation, excluding allowance.
The recorded investment of single-family mortgage loans for which formal foreclosure proceedings are in process was $8.2 billion and $10.1 billion as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. As a result of our various loss mitigation and foreclosure prevention efforts, we expect that a portion of the loans in the process of formal foreclosure proceedings will not ultimately foreclose.
Nonaccrual Loans
We discontinue accruing interest on loans when we believe collectibility of principal or interest is not reasonably assured, which for a single-family loan we have determined, based on our historical experience, to be when the loan becomes two months or more past due according to its contractual terms. Interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed through interest income at the date a loan is placed on nonaccrual status. We return a non-modified single-family loan to accrual status at the point that the borrower brings the loan current. We return a modified single-family loan to accrual status at the point that the borrower successfully makes all required payments during the trial period (generally three to four months) and the modification is made permanent. We place a multifamily loan on nonaccrual status when the loan becomes three months or more past due according to its contractual terms or is deemed to be individually impaired, unless the loan is well secured such that collectibility of principal and accrued interest is reasonably assured. We return a multifamily loan to accrual status when the borrower cures the delinquency of the loan or we otherwise determine that the loan is well secured such that collectibility is reasonably assured.

Excludes $18.1 billion and $22.1 billion as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, of mortgage loans guaranteed or insured, in whole or in part, by the U.S. government or one of its agencies, that are not Alt-A loans. The class is primarily reverse mortgages for which we do not calculate an estimated mark-to-market LTV ratio.
(2) 
The aggregate estimated mark-to-market LTV ratio is based on the unpaid principal balance of the loan divided by the estimated current value of the property as of the end of each reported period, which we calculate using an internal valuation model that estimates periodic changes in home value.

Includes loans classified as “Substandard” or “Doubtful.” Loans classified as “Substandard” have a well-defined weakness that jeopardizes the timely full repayment. Loans classified as “Doubtful” have weakness that makes collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable based on existing conditions and values. As of September 30, 2019, we had loans with recorded investment of less than $0.1 million classified as doubtful, compared with $1 million as of December 31, 2018.

Troubled Debt Restructurings
A modification to the contractual terms of a loan that results in granting a concession to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties is considered a TDR. In addition to formal loan modifications, including those modifications in a trial period, we also engage in other loss mitigation activities with troubled borrowers, which include repayment plans and forbearance arrangements, both of which represent informal agreements with the borrower that do not result in the legal modification of the loan’s contractual terms. We account for these informal restructurings as a TDR if we defer more than three missed payments. We also classify loans to certain borrowers who have received bankruptcy relief as TDRs.
The substantial majority of the loan modifications we complete result in term extensions, interest rate reductions or a combination of both. The average term extension of a single-family modified loan was 164 months and 98 months for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The average interest rate reduction was 0.15 and 0.14 percentage points, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the average term extension of a single-family modified loan was 160 months and 104 months, respectively, and the average interest rate reduction was 0.11 and 0.23 percentage points, respectively.

Based on the nature of our modification programs, which do not include principal or past-due interest forgiveness, there is not a material difference between the recorded investment in our loans pre- and post- modification. Therefore, these amounts represent recorded investment post-modification.
The decrease in loans classified as a TDR for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared with the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 was primarily attributable to a significantly higher number of single-family loan modifications and other forms of loss mitigation in the areas affected by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria that resulted in a restructuring of the terms of those loans during the first nine months of 2018.

For loans that had a payment default in the period presented and that were classified as a TDR in the twelve months prior to the payment default, the following tables display the number of loans and our recorded investment in these loans at the time of payment default. For the purposes of this disclosure, we define loans that had a payment default as: single-family and multifamily loans with completed TDRs that liquidated during the period, either through foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or a short sale; single-family loans with completed modifications that are two or more months delinquent during the period; or multifamily loans with completed modifications that are one or more months delinquent during the period.

4.  Allowance for Loan Losses
We maintain an allowance for loan losses for HFI loans held by Fannie Mae and by consolidated Fannie Mae MBS trusts, excluding loans for which we have elected the fair value option. When calculating our allowance for loan losses, we consider the unpaid principal balance, net of amortized premiums and discounts, and other cost basis adjustments of HFI loans at the balance sheet date. We record charge-offs as a reduction to our allowance for loan losses at the point of foreclosure, completion of a short sale, upon the redesignation of loans from HFI to HFS or when a loan is determined to be uncollectible.
We aggregate single-family HFI loans that are not individually impaired based on similar risk characteristics, for purposes of estimating incurred credit losses and establishing a collective single-family loss reserve using an econometric model that derives an overall loss reserve estimate. We base our allowance methodology on historical events and trends, such as loss severity (in event of default), default rates, and recoveries from mortgage insurance contracts and other credit enhancements that provide loan-level loss coverage and are either contractually attached to a loan or that were entered into contemporaneously with and in contemplation of a guaranty or loan purchase transaction. We use recent regional historical sales and appraisal information, including the sales of our own foreclosed properties, to develop our loss severity estimates for all loan categories. Our allowance calculation also incorporates a loss confirmation period (the anticipated time lag between a credit loss event and the confirmation of the credit loss resulting from that event) to ensure our allowance estimate captures credit losses that have been incurred as of the balance sheet date but have not been confirmed. In addition, management performs a review of the observable data used in its estimate to ensure it is representative of prevailing economic conditions and other events existing as of the balance sheet date.
Individually impaired single-family loans currently include those classified as a TDR and acquired credit-impaired loans. We consider a loan to be impaired when, based on current information, it is probable that we will not receive all amounts due,

including interest, in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. When a loan has been restructured, we measure impairment using a cash flow analysis discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate. If we expect to recover our recorded investment in an individually impaired loan through probable foreclosure of the underlying collateral, we measure impairment based on the difference between our recorded investment in the loan and the fair value of the underlying property, adjusted for the estimated costs to sell the property and estimated insurance or other proceeds we expect to receive. During the three months ended September 30, 2019, we enhanced the model used to estimate cash flows for individually impaired single-family loans within our allowance for loan losses. This enhancement was performed as a part of management’s routine model performance review process. In addition to incorporating recent loan performance data, this model enhancement better captures recent prepayment activity, default rates, and loss severity in the event of default. The enhancement resulted in a decrease to our allowance for loan losses and an incremental benefit for credit losses of approximately $850 million and is included in “Benefit (provision) for loan losses” in the table below.
We establish a collective allowance for all loans in our multifamily guaranty book of business that are not individually measured for impairment using an internal model that applies loss factors to loans in similar risk categories. Our loss factors are developed based on our historical default and loss severity experience. We identify multifamily loans for evaluation for impairment through a credit risk assessment process. If we determine that a multifamily loan is individually impaired, we generally measure impairment on that loan based on the fair value of the underlying collateral less estimated costs to sell the property, as we have concluded that such loans are collateral dependent. We evaluate collectively for impairment smaller-balance homogeneous multifamily loans.

Other-Than-Temporary Impairments
The cumulative outstanding balance related to other-than-temporary-impairment (“OTTI”) credit loss amounts previously recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income throughout the life of AFS debt securities held in portfolio were $37 million and $635 million as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Those amounts were $718 million and $1.1 billion as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The decrease in the cumulative outstanding balance in the first nine months of 2019 and 2018 was primarily driven by securities that we no longer hold in portfolio.

6.  Financial Guarantees
We recognize a guaranty obligation for our obligation to stand ready to perform on our guarantees to unconsolidated trusts and other guaranty arrangements. These off-balance sheet guarantees expose us to credit losses primarily relating to the unpaid principal balance of our unconsolidated Fannie Mae MBS and other financial guarantees. The remaining contractual terms of our guarantees range from 1 day to 33 years; however, the actual term of each guaranty may be significantly less than the contractual term based on the prepayment characteristics of the related mortgage loans.
As the guarantor of structured securities backed in whole or in part by Freddie Mac-issued securities, we extend our guaranty to the underlying Freddie Mac securities in our resecuritization trusts. However, Freddie Mac continues to guarantee the payment of principal and interest on the underlying Freddie Mac securities that we have resecuritized. We do not charge an incremental guaranty fee to include Freddie Mac securities in the structured securities that we issue. Due to the funding commitment available to Freddie Mac through its senior preferred stock purchase agreement with Treasury, we have concluded that the associated credit risk is negligible. As such, we exclude from the following table approximately $28.9 billion of Freddie Mac securities backing unconsolidated Fannie Mae-issued structured securities as of September 30, 2019.
The following table displays our off-balance sheet maximum exposure, guaranty obligation recognized in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and the potential maximum recovery from third parties through available credit enhancements and recourse related to our financial guarantees.

We use a secured intraday funding line of credit provided by a large financial institution. We post collateral which, in some circumstances, the secured party has the right to repledge to third parties. As this line of credit is an uncommitted intraday loan facility, we may be unable to draw on it if and when needed.

8.  Derivative Instruments
Derivative instruments are an integral part of our strategy in managing interest rate risk. Derivative instruments may be privately-negotiated, bilateral contracts, or they may be listed and traded on an exchange. We refer to our derivative transactions made pursuant to bilateral contracts as our over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivative transactions and our derivative transactions accepted for clearing by a derivatives clearing organization as our cleared derivative transactions. We typically do not settle the notional amount of our risk management derivatives; rather, notional amounts provide the basis for calculating actual payments or settlement amounts. The derivative contracts we use for interest rate risk management purposes consist primarily of interest rate swaps and interest rate options. See “Note 8, Derivative Instruments” in our 2018 Form 10-K for additional information on interest rate risk management.
We enter into various forms of credit risk-sharing agreements that we account for as derivatives, including some of our credit risk transfer transactions and swap credit enhancements. The majority of our credit-related derivatives are credit risk transfer transactions, whereby a portion of the credit risk associated with losses on a reference pool of mortgage loans is transferred to a third party. Additionally, we enter into derivative transactions that are associated with some of our other credit risk transfer transactions, whereby we manage investment risk to guarantee that certain unconsolidated VIEs have sufficient cash flows to pay their contractual obligations.
We enter into forward purchase and sale commitments that lock in the future delivery of mortgage loans and mortgage-related securities at a fixed price or yield. Certain commitments to purchase mortgage loans and purchase or sell mortgage-related securities meet the criteria of a derivative. We typically settle the notional amount of our mortgage commitments that are accounted for as derivatives.
We recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets at their fair value on a trade date basis. Fair value amounts, which are netted to the extent a legal right of offset exists and is enforceable by law at the counterparty level and are inclusive of the right or obligation associated with the cash collateral posted or received, are recorded in “Other assets” or “Other liabilities” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. See “Note 12, Fair Value” for additional information on derivatives recorded at fair value. We present cash flows from derivatives as operating activities in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Derivative Counterparty Credit Exposure
Our derivative counterparty credit exposure relates principally to interest rate derivative contracts. We are exposed to the risk that a counterparty in a derivative transaction will default on payments due to us, which may require us to seek a replacement derivative from a different counterparty. This replacement may be at a higher cost, or we may be unable to find a suitable replacement. We manage our derivative counterparty credit exposure relating to our risk management derivative transactions mainly through enforceable master netting arrangements, which allow us to net derivative assets and liabilities with the same counterparty or clearing organization and clearing member. For our OTC derivative transactions, we require counterparties to post collateral, which may include cash, U.S. Treasury securities, agency debt and agency mortgage-related securities.
See “Note 11, Netting Arrangements” for information on our rights to offset assets and liabilities.

The majority of our revenues and expenses are directly associated with either our single-family or our multifamily business segment and are included in determining that segment’s operating results. Other revenues and expenses, including administrative expenses, that are not directly attributable to a particular business segment are allocated based on the size of each segment’s guaranty book of business. The substantial majority of the gains and losses associated with our risk management derivatives are allocated to our single-family business segment.
The following table displays our segment results.

(1) 
Net interest income primarily consists of guaranty fees received as compensation for assuming and managing the credit risk on loans underlying Fannie Mae MBS held by third parties for the respective business segment, and the difference between the interest income earned on the respective business segment’s mortgage assets in our retained mortgage portfolio and the interest expense associated with the debt funding those assets. Revenues from single-family guaranty fees include revenues generated by the 10 basis point increase in guaranty fees pursuant to the TCCA, the incremental revenue from which is remitted to Treasury and not retained by us.
(2) 
Single-Family fee and other income primarily consists of compensation for engaging in structured transactions and providing other lender services, and income resulting from settlement agreements resolving certain claims relating to private-label securities we purchased or that we have guaranteed. Multifamily fee and other income consists of fees associated with Multifamily business activities, including yield maintenance income.
(3) 
Investment gains and losses primarily consist of gains and losses on the sale of mortgage assets for the respective business segment.
(4) 
Single-Family fair value gains and losses primarily consist of fair value gains and losses on risk management and mortgage commitment derivatives, trading securities and other financial instruments associated with our single-family guaranty book of business. Multifamily fair value gains and losses primarily consist of fair value gains and losses on MBS commitment derivatives, trading securities and other financial instruments associated with our multifamily guaranty book of business.
(5) 
Credit-related income or expense is based on the guaranty book of business of the respective business segment and consists of the applicable segment’s benefit or provision for credit losses and foreclosed property income or expense on loans underlying the segment’s guaranty book of business.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements | Concentrations of Credit Risk


10.  Concentrations of Credit Risk
Risk Characteristics of our Guaranty Book of Business
One of the key measures by which we gauge our performance risk is the delinquency status of the mortgage loans in our guaranty book of business.
For single-family and multifamily loans, we use this information, in conjunction with housing market and economic conditions, to structure our pricing and our eligibility and underwriting criteria to reflect the current risk of loans with these higher-risk characteristics, and in some cases we decide to significantly reduce our participation in riskier loan product categories. Management also uses this data together with other credit risk measures to identify key trends that guide the development of our loss mitigation strategies.
Single-Family credit risk characteristics
For single-family loans, management monitors the serious delinquency rate, which is the percentage of single-family loans, based on the number of loans that are 90 days or more past due or in the foreclosure process, and loans that have higher risk characteristics, such as high mark-to-market LTV ratios.
The following tables display the delinquency status and serious delinquency rates for specified loan categories of our single-family conventional guaranty book of business.

(4) 
Calculated based on the number of single-family conventional loans that were delinquent divided by the total number of loans in our single-family conventional guaranty book of business.
Multifamily credit risk characteristics
For multifamily loans, management monitors the serious delinquency rate, which is the percentage of multifamily loans, based on unpaid principal balance, that are 60 days or more past due, and other loans that have higher risk characteristics, to determine our overall credit quality indicator. Higher risk characteristics include, but are not limited to, current debt service coverage ratio (“DSCR”) below 1.0 and original LTV ratios greater than 80%. We stratify multifamily loans into different internal risk categories based on the credit risk inherent in each individual loan.
The following tables display the delinquency status and serious delinquency rates for specified loan categories of our multifamily guaranty book of business.

Genworth Financial, Inc., the ultimate parent company of Genworth Mortgage Insurance Corp., is in the process of being acquired by China Oceanwide Holdings Group Co., Ltd. We have approved the acquisition subject to specified conditions, including Genworth Financial, Inc. receiving all required and outstanding regulatory approvals. Upon acquisition, Genworth Mortgage Insurance Corp. will continue to be subject to our ongoing review of financial and operational eligibility requirements.
Three of our mortgage insurer counterparties that are currently not approved to write new business are in run-off: PMI Mortgage Insurance Co. (“PMI”), Triad Guaranty Insurance Corporation (“Triad”) and Republic Mortgage Insurance Company (”RMIC”). Entering run-off may close off a source of profits and liquidity that may have otherwise assisted a mortgage insurer in paying claims under insurance policies, and could also cause the quality and speed of its claims processing to deteriorate. These three mortgage insurers provided a combined $3.7 billion, or 2%, of our risk in force mortgage insurance coverage of our single-family guaranty book of business as of September 30, 2019.
PMI and Triad have been paying only a portion of policyholder claims and deferring the remaining portion. PMI is currently paying 74.5% of claims under its mortgage insurance policies in cash and is deferring the remaining 25.5%, and Triad is currently paying 75% of claims in cash and deferring the remaining 25%. It is uncertain whether PMI or Triad will be permitted in the future to pay any remaining deferred policyholder claims and/or increase or decrease the amount of cash they pay on claims. RMIC is no longer deferring payments on policyholder claims and has paid us its previously outstanding deferred payment obligations as well as interest on those obligations; however, RMIC remains in run-off.
We have counterparty credit risk relating to the potential insolvency of, or non-performance by, mortgage insurers that insure single-family loans we purchase or guarantee. There is risk that these counterparties may fail to fulfill their obligations to pay our claims under insurance policies. On at least a quarterly basis, we assess our mortgage insurer counterparties’ respective abilities to fulfill their obligations to us. Our assessment includes financial reviews and analyses of the insurers’ portfolios and capital adequacy. If we determine that it is probable that we will not collect all of our claims from one or more of our mortgage insurer counterparties, it could increase our loss reserves, which could adversely affect our results of operations, liquidity, financial condition and net worth.
When we estimate the credit losses that are inherent in our mortgage loans and under the terms of our guaranty obligations, we also consider the recoveries that we will receive on primary mortgage insurance, as mortgage insurance recoveries would reduce the severity of the loss associated with defaulted loans. We evaluate the financial condition of our mortgage insurer counterparties and adjust the contractually due recovery amounts to ensure that only probable losses as of the balance sheet date are included in our loss reserve estimate. As a result, if our assessment of one or more of our mortgage insurer counterparties’ ability to fulfill their respective obligations to us worsens, it could increase our loss reserves. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our estimated benefit from mortgage insurance reduced our loss reserves by $398 million and $691 million, respectively.
As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had outstanding receivables of $669 million and $745 million, respectively, recorded in “Other assets” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets related to amounts claimed on insured, defaulted loans excluding government-insured loans. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we assessed these outstanding receivables for collectibility, and established a valuation allowance of $545 million and $564 million, respectively, which reduces our claim receivable to the amount considered probable of collection.
Mortgage Servicers and Sellers. Mortgage servicers collect mortgage and escrow payments from borrowers, pay taxes and insurance costs from escrow accounts, monitor and report delinquencies, and perform other required activities on our behalf. Our mortgage servicers and sellers may also be obligated to repurchase loans or foreclosed properties, reimburse us for losses or provide other remedies under certain circumstances, such as if it is determined that the mortgage loan did not meet

our underwriting or eligibility requirements, if certain loan representations and warranties are violated or if mortgage insurers rescind coverage. Our representation and warranty framework does not require repurchase for loans that have breaches of certain selling representations and warranties if they have met specified criteria for relief.
Our business with mortgage servicers is concentrated. The table below displays the percentage of our single-family guaranty book of business serviced by our top five depository single-family mortgage servicers and top five non-depository single-family mortgage servicers, and identifies one servicer that serviced more than 10% of our single-family guaranty book of business based on unpaid principal balance.

There was an increase in the portion of our single-family guaranty book serviced by our top five non-depository servicers, particularly for our delinquent single-family loans. Compared with depository financial institutions, these institutions pose additional risks to us because they may not have the same financial strength or operational capacity, or be subject to the same level of regulatory oversight, as our largest mortgage servicer counterparties, which are mostly depository institutions.

If a significant mortgage servicer or seller counterparty, or a number of mortgage servicers or sellers, fails to meet their obligations to us, it could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. We mitigate these risks in several ways, including:
establishing minimum standards and financial requirements for our servicers;
monitoring financial and portfolio performance as compared with peers and internal benchmarks; and
for our largest mortgage servicers, conducting periodic on-site and financial reviews to confirm compliance with servicing guidelines and servicing performance expectations.
We may take one or more of the following actions to mitigate our credit exposure to mortgage servicers that present a higher risk:
require a guaranty of obligations by higher-rated entities;
transfer exposure to third parties;
require collateral;
establish more stringent financial requirements;
work on-site with underperforming major servicers to improve operational processes; and
suspend or terminate the selling and servicing relationship if deemed necessary.
Derivative Counterparties. For information on credit risk associated with our derivative transactions and repurchase agreements see “Note 8, Derivative Instruments” and “Note 11, Netting Arrangements.”

We use master netting arrangements, which allow us to offset certain financial instruments and collateral with the same counterparty, to minimize counterparty credit exposure. The tables below display information related to derivatives, securities purchased under agreements to resell or similar arrangements, and securities sold under agreements to repurchase or similar arrangements, which are subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement that are either offset or not offset in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements | Netting Arrangements


(1) 
Represents the effect of the right to offset under legally enforceable master netting arrangements to settle with the same counterparty on a net basis, including cash collateral posted and received and accrued interest.
(2) 
Mortgage commitment derivative amounts reflect where we have recognized both an asset and a liability with the same counterparty under an enforceable master netting arrangement but we have not elected to offset the related amounts in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
(3) 
Represents collateral received that has not been recognized and is not offset in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as well as collateral posted which has been recognized but not offset in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of non-cash collateral we pledged was $3.1 billion and $1.9 billion as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, which the counterparty was permitted to sell or repledge. The fair value of non-cash collateral received was $36.1 billion and $48.4 billion, of which $34.3 billion and $45.7 billion could be sold or repledged as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. None of the underlying collateral was sold or repledged as of September 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.
(4) 
Excludes derivative assets of $42 million and $57 million as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and derivative liabilities of $27 million and $11 million recognized in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, that are not subject to enforceable master netting arrangements.
(5) 
Includes $12.9 billion and $15.4 billion in securities purchased under agreements to resell classified as “Cash and cash equivalents” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
Derivative instruments are recorded at fair value and securities purchased under agreements to resell or similar arrangements are recorded at amortized cost in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. For how we determine our rights to offset the assets and liabilities presented above with the same counterparty, including collateral posted or received, see “Note 14, Netting Arrangements” in our 2018 Form 10-K.
12.  Fair Value
We use fair value measurements for the initial recording of certain assets and liabilities and periodic remeasurement of certain assets and liabilities on a recurring or nonrecurring basis.
Fair Value Measurement
Fair value measurement guidance defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and sets forth disclosures around fair value measurements. This guidance applies whenever other accounting guidance requires or permits assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. The guidance establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs into the valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority, Level 1, to measurements based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The next highest priority, Level 2, is given to measurements of assets and liabilities based on limited observable inputs or observable inputs for similar assets and liabilities. The lowest priority, Level 3, is given to measurements based on unobservable inputs.
Recurring Changes in Fair Value
The following tables display our assets and liabilities measured in our condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value on a recurring basis subsequent to initial recognition, including instruments for which we have elected the fair value option.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements | Fair Value


The following tables display valuation techniques and the range and the weighted average of significant unobservable inputs for our Level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, excluding instruments for which we have elected the fair value option. Changes in these unobservable inputs can result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements of these assets and liabilities as of the reporting date.

Valuation techniques for which no unobservable inputs are disclosed generally reflect the use of third-party pricing services or dealers, and the range of unobservable inputs applied by these sources is not readily available or cannot be reasonably estimated. Where we have disclosed unobservable inputs for consensus and single vendor techniques, those inputs are based on our validations performed at the security level using discounted cash flows.
(2) 
Unobservable inputs were weighted by the relative fair value of the instruments.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements | Fair Value


In our condensed consolidated balance sheets, certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when we evaluate loans for impairment). We had no Level 1 assets or liabilities held as of September 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018 that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. We held $620 million and $91 million in Level 2 assets as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, comprised of mortgage loans held for sale and mortgage loans held for investment that were individually impaired. We had no Level 2 liabilities that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
The following table displays valuation techniques for our Level 3 assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The significant unobservable inputs related to these techniques primarily relate to collateral dependent valuations. The related ranges and weighted averages are not meaningful when aggregated as they vary significantly from property to property.

The most commonly used techniques in our valuation of acquired property are a proprietary home price model and third-party valuations (both current and walk forward). Based on the number of properties measured as of September 30, 2019, these methodologies comprised approximately 83% of our valuations, while accepted offers comprised approximately 13% of our valuations. Based on the number of properties measured as of December 31, 2018, these methodologies comprised approximately 82% of our valuations, while accepted offers comprised approximately 15% of our valuations.
We use valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. See “Note 15, Fair Value” in our 2018 Form 10-K for information on the valuation control processes and the valuation techniques we use for fair value measurement and disclosure as well as our basis for classifying these measurements as Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy in more specific situations. We made no material changes to the valuation control processes or the valuation techniques for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following table displays the carrying value and estimated fair value of our financial instruments. The fair value of financial instruments we disclose includes commitments to purchase multifamily and single-family mortgage loans that we do not record in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair values of these commitments are included as “Mortgage loans held for investment, net of allowance for loan losses.” The disclosure excludes all non-financial instruments; therefore, the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities does not represent the underlying fair value of our total consolidated assets and liabilities.

For a detailed description and classification of our financial instruments, see “Note 15, Fair Value” in our 2018 Form 10-K.
Fair Value Option
We elected the fair value option for loans and debt that contain embedded derivatives that would otherwise require bifurcation. Additionally, we elected the fair value option for our credit risk-sharing securities accounted for as debt of Fannie Mae issued under our CAS series prior to January 1, 2016. Under the fair value option, we elected to carry these instruments at fair value instead of bifurcating the embedded derivative from such instruments.
Interest income for the mortgage loans is recorded in “Interest income—Mortgage loans” and interest expense for the debt instruments is recorded in “Interest expense—Long-term debt” in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements | Commitments and Contingencies


13.  Commitments and Contingencies
We are party to various types of legal actions and proceedings, including actions brought on behalf of various classes of claimants. We also are subject to regulatory examinations, inquiries and investigations, and other information gathering requests. In some of the matters, indeterminate amounts are sought. Modern pleading practice in the U.S. permits considerable variation in the assertion of monetary damages or other relief. Jurisdictions may permit claimants not to specify the monetary damages sought or may permit claimants to state only that the amount sought is sufficient to invoke the jurisdiction of the trial court. This variability in pleadings, together with our and our counsel’s actual experience in litigating or settling claims, leads us to conclude that the monetary relief that may be sought by plaintiffs bears little relevance to the merits or disposition value of claims.
We have substantial and valid defenses to the claims in the proceedings described below and intend to defend these matters vigorously. However, legal actions and proceedings of all types are subject to many uncertain factors that generally cannot be predicted with assurance. Accordingly, the outcome of any given matter and the amount or range of potential loss at particular points in time is frequently difficult to ascertain. Uncertainties can include how fact finders will evaluate documentary evidence and the credibility and effectiveness of witness testimony, and how courts will apply the law. Disposition valuations are also subject to the uncertainty of how opposing parties and their counsel may view the evidence and applicable law.
On a quarterly basis, we review relevant information about all pending legal actions and proceedings for the purpose of evaluating and revising our contingencies, accruals and disclosures. We establish an accrual only for matters when a loss is probable and we can reasonably estimate the amount of such loss. We are often unable to estimate the possible losses or ranges of losses, particularly for proceedings that are in their early stages of development, where plaintiffs seek indeterminate or unspecified damages, where there may be novel or unsettled legal questions relevant to the proceedings, or where settlement negotiations have not occurred or progressed. Given the uncertainties involved in any action or proceeding, regardless of whether we have established an accrual, the ultimate resolution of certain of these matters may be material to our operating results for a particular period, depending on, among other factors, the size of the loss or liability imposed and the level of our net income or loss for that period.
In addition to the matters specifically described below, we are involved in a number of legal and regulatory proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business that we do not expect will have a material impact on our business or financial condition. We have also advanced fees and expenses of certain current and former officers and directors in connection with various legal proceedings pursuant to our bylaws and indemnification agreements.
Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreements Litigation
A consolidated putative class action (“In re Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement Class Action Litigations”) and two non-class action lawsuits filed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac shareholders against us, FHFA as our conservator, and Freddie Mac are pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. The lawsuits challenge the August 2012 amendment to each company’s senior preferred stock purchase agreement with Treasury.
In the consolidated class action and two of the non-class action suits, Arrowood Indemnity Company v. Fannie Mae and Fairholme Funds v. FHFA, plaintiffs filed amended complaints on November 1, 2017 alleging that the net worth sweep dividend provisions of the senior preferred stock that were implemented pursuant to the August 2012 amendments nullified certain of the shareholders’ rights, particularly the right to receive dividends. Plaintiffs seek unspecified damages, equitable and injunctive relief, and costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees. Plaintiffs in the class action seek to represent several classes of preferred and/or common shareholders of Fannie Mae and/or Freddie Mac who held stock as of the public announcement of the August 2012 amendments. On September 28, 2018, the court dismissed all of the plaintiffs’ claims except for their claims for breach of an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. On October 15, 2018, defendants filed a motion for partial reconsideration. On May 16, 2019, the court denied this motion.
On May 21, 2018, a plaintiff in a non-class action case, Angel v. Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, filed a complaint for declaratory relief and compensatory damages against Fannie Mae (including certain members of its Board of Directors), Freddie Mac (including certain members of its Board of Directors) and FHFA, as conservator, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Plaintiff in that case asserts claims for breach of contract, breach of implied covenants of good faith and fair dealing, and aiding and abetting the federal government in avoiding an alleged implicit guarantee of dividend payments. On March 6, 2019, the court granted defendants’ motion to dismiss and on March 18, 2019, plaintiff moved to alter or amend the judgment and to file an amended complaint. On May 24, 2019, the court denied this motion. On June 19, 2019, plaintiff filed a notice of appeal of the court’s dismissal and related orders with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.
Given the stage of these lawsuits, the substantial and novel legal questions that remain, and our substantial defenses, we are currently unable to estimate the reasonably possible loss or range of loss arising from this litigation.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk


Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Information about market risk is set forth in “MD&A—Risk Management—Market Risk Management, including Interest Rate Risk Management.”
Item 4.  Controls and Procedures
Overview
We are required under applicable laws and regulations to maintain controls and procedures, which include disclosure controls and procedures as well as internal control over financial reporting, as further described below.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding our required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management was required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, management has evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as in effect as of September 30, 2019, the end of the period covered by this report. As a result of management’s evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2019 or as of the date of filing this report.
Our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2019 or as of the date of filing this report because they did not adequately ensure the accumulation and communication to management of information known to FHFA that is needed to meet our disclosure obligations under the federal securities laws. As a result, we were not able to rely upon the disclosure controls and procedures that were in place as of September 30, 2019 or as of the date of this filing, and we continue to have a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. This material weakness is described in more detail below under “Description of Material Weakness.” Based on discussions with FHFA and the structural nature of this material weakness, we do not expect to remediate this material weakness while we are under conservatorship.
Description of Material Weakness
The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board’s Auditing Standard 2201 defines a material weakness as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Management has determined that we continued to have the following material weakness as of September 30, 2019 and as of the date of filing this report:
Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We have been under the conservatorship of FHFA since September 6, 2008. Under the GSE Act, FHFA is an independent agency that currently functions as both our conservator and our regulator with respect to our safety, soundness and mission. Because of the nature of the conservatorship under the GSE Act, which places us under the “control” of FHFA (as that term is defined by securities laws), some of the information that we may need to meet our disclosure obligations may be solely within the knowledge of FHFA. As our conservator, FHFA has the power to take actions without our knowledge that could be material to our shareholders and other stakeholders, and could significantly affect our financial performance or our continued existence as an ongoing business. Although we and FHFA attempted to design and implement disclosure policies and procedures that would account for the conservatorship and accomplish the same objectives as a disclosure controls and procedures policy of a typical reporting company, there are inherent structural limitations on our ability to design, implement, test or operate
effective disclosure controls and procedures. As both our regulator and our conservator under the GSE Act, FHFA is limited in its ability to design and implement a complete set of disclosure controls and procedures relating to Fannie Mae, particularly with respect to current reporting pursuant to Form 8-K. Similarly, as a regulated entity, we are limited in our ability to design, implement, operate and test the controls and procedures for which FHFA is responsible.
Due to these circumstances, we have not been able to update our disclosure controls and procedures in a manner that adequately ensures the accumulation and communication to management of information known to FHFA that is needed to meet our disclosure obligations under the federal securities laws, including disclosures affecting our condensed consolidated financial statements. As a result, we did not maintain effective controls and procedures designed to ensure complete and accurate disclosure as required by GAAP as of September 30, 2019 or as of the date of filing this report. Based on discussions with FHFA and the structural nature of this weakness, we do not expect to remediate this material weakness while we are under conservatorship.
Mitigating Actions Related to Material Weakness
As described above under “Description of Material Weakness,” we continue to have a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting relating to our disclosure controls and procedures. However, we and FHFA have engaged in the following practices intended to permit accumulation and communication to management of information needed to meet our disclosure obligations under the federal securities laws:
FHFA has established the Division of Conservatorship, which is intended to facilitate operation of the company with the oversight of the conservator.
We have provided drafts of our SEC filings to FHFA personnel for their review and comment prior to filing. We also have provided drafts of external press releases, statements and speeches to FHFA personnel for their review and comment prior to release.
FHFA personnel, including senior officials, have reviewed our SEC filings prior to filing, including this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 (“Third Quarter 2019 Form 10-Q”), and engaged in discussions regarding issues associated with the information contained in those filings. Prior to filing our Third Quarter 2019 Form 10-Q, FHFA provided Fannie Mae management with written acknowledgment that it had reviewed the Third Quarter 2019 Form 10-Q, and it was not aware of any material misstatements or omissions in the Third Quarter 2019 Form 10-Q and had no objection to our filing the Third Quarter 2019 Form 10-Q.
Our senior management meets regularly with senior leadership at FHFA, including, but not limited to, the Director.
FHFA representatives attend meetings frequently with various groups within the company to enhance the flow of information and to provide oversight on a variety of matters, including accounting, credit and market risk management, external communications and legal matters.
Senior officials within FHFA’s Office of the Chief Accountant have met frequently with our senior finance executives regarding our accounting policies, practices and procedures.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Overview
Management has evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, whether any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Below we describe changes in our internal control over financial reporting since June 30, 2019 that management believes have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
In the ordinary course of business, we review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes that we believe will improve these controls and increase efficiency, while continuing to ensure that we maintain effective internal controls. Changes may include implementing new, more efficient systems, automating manual processes and updating existing systems. For example, we are currently implementing changes to various financial system applications in stages across the company. As we continue to implement these changes, each implementation may become a significant component of our internal control over financial reporting.
Treasury Cash Management System
In July 2019, we consolidated our treasury systems used for cash activities, liquidity management and bank account administration into a fully integrated new treasury cash management system. In connection with this implementation and related business process changes, we redesigned or replaced multiple existing controls that were previously considered effective with new or modified controls and, in some cases, removed controls that are no longer applicable. We will continue to monitor and test these new and modified controls for adequate design and operating effectiveness. This new system was

operating during the third quarter of 2019 and was used to prepare our third quarter 2019 condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.  Legal Proceedings
The information in this item supplements and updates information regarding certain legal proceedings set forth in “Legal Proceedings” in our 2018 Form 10-K, our First Quarter 2019 Form 10-Q and our Second Quarter 2019 Form 10-Q. We also provide information regarding material legal proceedings in “Note 13, Commitments and Contingencies,” which is incorporated herein by reference. In addition to the matters specifically described or incorporated by reference in this item, we are involved in a number of legal and regulatory proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business that we do not expect will have a material impact on our business or financial condition. However, litigation claims and proceedings of all types are subject to many factors and their outcome and effect on our business and financial condition generally cannot be predicted accurately.
We establish an accrual for legal claims only when a loss is probable and we can reasonably estimate the amount of such loss. The actual costs of resolving legal claims may be substantially higher or lower than the amounts accrued for those claims. If certain of these matters are determined against us, FHFA or Treasury, it could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity and financial condition, including our net worth.
Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreements Litigation
Between June 2013 and August 2018, preferred and common stockholders of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac filed lawsuits in multiple federal courts against one or more of the United States, Treasury and FHFA, challenging actions taken by the defendants relating to the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac senior preferred stock purchase agreements and the conservatorships of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Some of these lawsuits also contain claims against Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The legal claims being advanced by one or more of these lawsuits include challenges to the net worth sweep dividend provisions of the senior preferred stock that were implemented pursuant to August 2012 amendments to the agreements, the payment of dividends to Treasury under the net worth sweep dividend provisions, and FHFA’s decision to require Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to draw funds from Treasury in order to pay dividends to Treasury prior to the August 2012 amendments. Some of the lawsuits also challenge the constitutionality of FHFA’s structure. The plaintiffs seek various forms of equitable and injunctive relief, including rescission of the August 2012 amendments, as well as damages. The cases that remain pending or were terminated after June 30, 2019 are as follows:
District of Columbia. Fannie Mae is a defendant in three cases pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia—a consolidated putative class action and two additional cases. In all three cases, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac stockholders filed amended complaints on November 1, 2017 against us, FHFA as our conservator and Freddie Mac. On September 28, 2018, the court dismissed all of the plaintiffs’ claims in these cases, except for their claims for breach of an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and on May 16, 2019, the court denied defendants’ motion for partial reconsideration. In a fourth case that was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia on May 21, 2018, the court granted defendants’ motion to dismiss on March 6, 2019, and on March 18, 2019, plaintiff moved to alter or amend the judgment and to file an amended complaint. On May 24, 2019, the court denied this motion. On June 19, 2019, plaintiff filed a notice of appeal of the court’s dismissal and related orders with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. All four cases are described in “Note 13, Commitments and Contingencies.”
Southern District of Texas. On October 20, 2016, preferred and common stockholders filed a complaint against FHFA and Treasury in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas. On May 22, 2017, the court dismissed the case. On September 6, 2019, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, sitting en banc, affirmed the district court’s dismissal of claims against Treasury, but reversed the dismissal of claims against FHFA. The court held that plaintiffs could pursue their claim that FHFA exceeded its statutory powers as conservator when it implemented the net worth sweep provisions of the senior preferred stock purchase agreements in August 2012. The court also held that the provision of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act that insulates the FHFA Director from removal without cause violates constitutional separation of powers principles and, thus, that the FHFA Director may be removed by the president for any reason. The court held that the appropriate remedy for this violation is to declare the provision severed from the statute. Plaintiffs have requested that the Supreme Court review the constitutional claim, arguing that the relief granted by Fifth Circuit is insufficient, and the government has requested review of the decision to allow the plaintiffs’ statutory claims to go forward.
Western District of Michigan. On June 1, 2017, preferred and common stockholders of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac filed a complaint for declaratory and injunctive relief against FHFA and Treasury in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Michigan. FHFA and Treasury moved to dismiss the case on September 8, 2017, and plaintiffs filed a motion for summary judgment on October 6, 2017.
District of Minnesota. On June 22, 2017, preferred and common stockholders of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac filed a complaint for declaratory and injunctive relief against FHFA and Treasury in the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota. The court dismissed the case on July 6, 2018, and plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit on July 10, 2018.

Eastern District of Pennsylvania. On August 16, 2018, common stockholders of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac filed a complaint for declaratory and injunctive relief against FHFA and Treasury in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. FHFA and Treasury moved to dismiss the case on November 16, 2018, and plaintiffs filed a motion for summary judgment on December 21, 2018.
U.S. Court of Federal Claims. Numerous cases are pending against the United States in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims. Fannie Mae is a nominal defendant in three of these cases: Fisher v. United States of America, filed on December 2, 2013; Rafter v. United States of America, filed on August 14, 2014; and Perry Capital LLC v. United States of America, filed on August 15, 2018. Plaintiffs in these cases allege that the net worth sweep dividend provisions of the senior preferred stock that were implemented pursuant to the August 2012 amendment constitute a taking of Fannie Mae’s property without just compensation in violation of the U.S. Constitution. The Fisher plaintiffs are pursuing this claim derivatively on behalf of Fannie Mae, while the Rafter and Perry Capital plaintiffs are pursing the claim both derivatively and directly against the United States. Plaintiffs in Rafter also allege direct and derivative breach of contract claims against the government. The Perry Capital plaintiffs allege similar breach of contract claims, as well as breach of fiduciary duty claims against the government. Plaintiffs in Fisher request just compensation to Fannie Mae in an unspecified amount. Plaintiffs in Rafter and Perry Capital seek just compensation for themselves on their direct claims and payment of damages to Fannie Mae on their derivative claims. The United States filed a motion to dismiss the Fisher and Rafter cases on August 1, 2018.
LIBOR Lawsuit
As described further in our 2018 Form 10-K, in October 2013, Fannie Mae filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against a number of banks and other defendants alleging they manipulated LIBOR. On July 22, 2019, we entered into an agreement resolving our claims against two of the defendants in this lawsuit: Citigroup Inc. and Citibank, N.A. The financial impact of the settlement was not material to our financial statements.
Item 1A.  Risk Factors
In addition to the information in this report, you should carefully consider the risks relating to our business that we identify in “Risk Factors” in our 2018 Form 10-K. This section supplements and updates that discussion but does not repeat all of the risk factors described in our 2018 Form 10-K. Also refer to “MD&A—Risk Management,” “MD&A—Single-Family Business” and “MD&A—Multifamily Business” in our 2018 Form 10-K and in this report for more detailed descriptions of the primary risks to our business and how we seek to manage those risks.
The risks we face could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and net worth, and could cause our actual results to differ materially from our past results or the results contemplated by any forward-looking statements we make. We believe the risks described in the sections of this report and our 2018 Form 10-K identified above are the most significant we face; however, these are not the only risks we face. In addition to the risks we discuss in this report and in our 2018 Form 10-K, we face risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial.
GSE and Conservatorship Risk
The future of our company is uncertain.
There continues to be significant uncertainty regarding the future of our company, including how long the company will continue to exist in its current form, the extent of our role in the market, how long we will be in conservatorship, what form we will have, what ownership interest, if any, our current common and preferred stockholders will hold in us after the conservatorship is terminated, and whether we will continue to exist following conservatorship. The conservatorship is indefinite in duration and the timing, conditions and likelihood of our emerging from conservatorship are uncertain. Our conservatorship could terminate through a receivership. Termination of the conservatorship, other than in connection with a receivership, requires Treasury’s consent under the senior preferred stock purchase agreement.
On September 5, 2019, Treasury released its plan to reform the housing finance system. The Treasury plan, which is described in “MD&A—Legislation and Regulation—Housing Finance Reform,” is far-reaching in scope and could have a significant impact on our structure, our role in the secondary mortgage market, our capitalization, our business and our competitive environment. For example:
Some of the recommendations in the Treasury plan, if implemented, could significantly restrict our business activities, increase the competition we face, affect the credit risk of our mortgage acquisitions, affect our pricing, impose additional requirements on our business, increase our costs or have other impacts that could negatively affect our financial results and condition. For example, the plan includes recommendations that we and Freddie Mac should each be required to operate a cash window for smaller lenders, should be prohibited from offering volume-based pricing discounts or similar incentives, and should be required to maintain a nationwide presence.
The Treasury plan also contains recommendations for administrative and legislative reforms to limit our single-family activities and restrict our multifamily footprint. The plan recommends that FHFA assess whether each of our current single-family products, services and other activities, including our support for cash-out refinancings, investor loans,
and higher principal balance loans, should continue to benefit from support under our senior preferred stock purchase agreement. It also recommends that FHFA and Treasury consider amendments to the senior preferred stock purchase agreement to further limit the type and volume of multifamily loans we guarantee.
Regulatory capital requirements that become applicable to us as contemplated by the Treasury plan, depending on their terms, may substantially constrain our business and activities or adversely affect our financial results. For example, if the final capital rule requires us to hold more capital than FHFA’s proposed capital framework, we may be required to increase our pricing or take other actions to maintain appropriate risk-adjusted returns, which may in turn adversely affect our competitive position and financial results. This effect may be more pronounced in a stressed economic environment.
While the Treasury plan contemplates FHFA ending our conservatorship, implementing the plan will take time and a great deal of effort, and a number of factors may keep us from meeting the preconditions for exiting conservatorship, otherwise prevent our exiting conservatorship, or delay any exit from conservatorship as contemplated under the plan, including the following:
we may be unable to retain or raise sufficient capital;
we may be unable to meet additional requirements FHFA determines are necessary for us to operate in a safe and sound manner;
possible future changes in leadership at FHFA or the Administration may result in changes in FHFA’s or Treasury’s willingness to pursue the administrative reform recommendations in the Treasury plan;
legislation may pass that prevents the Treasury plan from being implemented;
our exit from conservatorship may be delayed because we need to address operational challenges or the loss of regulatory exemptions or protections resulting from an exit from conservatorship.
The Treasury plan indicates one potential approach to recapitalizing us would be to place us in receivership to facilitate a restructuring of our capital structure. In the event of such a receivership, existing holders of our preferred and common stock would have no further ownership interest in us.
We expect the Administration, FHFA and Congress to continue to consider housing finance reform, which could result in significant changes in our structure and role in the future, as well as other changes to our business and competitive environment.
In addition to or in connection with the recommendations set forth in the Treasury plan, Congress, FHFA or other agencies may consider legislation, regulation or administrative actions aimed at increasing the competition we face, reducing our market share, expanding our obligations to provide funds to Treasury, constraining our business operations, or subjecting us to new obligations that could impose substantial burdens or adversely affect our results of operations or financial condition. We cannot predict the timing or final content of housing finance reform legislation or other legislation, regulations or administrative actions related to our activities, nor can we predict the impact any such enacted legislation, regulations or administrative actions would have on our business and financial condition.
We may not have sufficient capital reserves to avoid a net worth deficit if we experience comprehensive losses in the future. If we have a net worth deficit in a future quarter, we will be required to draw funds from Treasury to avoid being placed into receivership.
The recently amended dividend provisions of the senior preferred stock permit us to retain only up to $25 billion as capital reserves, provided our conservator directs us to declare and pay senior preferred stock dividends that become payable in the future. As of September 30, 2019, our net worth was only $10.3 billion. As a result, we may not have sufficient capital reserves to avoid a net worth deficit if we have comprehensive losses in the future.
For any quarter for which we have a net worth deficit, we would need to draw funds from Treasury under the senior preferred stock purchase agreement to avoid being placed into receivership. As of the date of this filing, the maximum amount of remaining funding under the agreement is $113.9 billion. If we were to draw additional funds from Treasury under the agreement with respect to a future period, the amount of remaining funding under the agreement would be reduced by the amount of our draw. Dividend payments we make to Treasury do not restore or increase the amount of funding available to us under the agreement. Accordingly, if we experience multiple quarters of net worth deficits, the amount of remaining funding available under the senior preferred stock purchase agreement could be significantly reduced from its current level.
Our business and results of operations may be materially adversely affected if we are unable to retain and recruit well-qualified senior executives and other employees. The conservatorship, the uncertainty of our future and limitations on our executive and employee compensation put us at a disadvantage compared to many other companies in attracting and retaining these employees.
Our business processes are highly dependent on the talents and efforts of our senior executives and other employees. The conservatorship, the uncertainty of our future and limitations on executive and employee compensation have had, and are likely to continue to have, an adverse effect on our ability to retain and recruit well-qualified executives and other employees. Turnover in key management positions and challenges in integrating new management could harm our ability to manage our business effectively and successfully implement our and FHFA’s current strategic initiatives, and ultimately could adversely affect our financial performance.
Actions taken by Congress, FHFA and Treasury to date, or that may be taken by them or other government agencies in the future, have had, and may continue to have, an adverse effect on our retention and recruitment of senior executives and other

Fannie Mae Third Quarter 2019 Form 10-Q

Other Information


employees. We are subject to significant restrictions on the amount and type of compensation we may pay our executives and other employees while under conservatorship. For example:
The Equity in Government Compensation Act of 2015 caps the annual direct compensation payable to our chief executive officer to no more than $600,000 while we are in conservatorship or receivership.
The STOCK Act prohibits our senior executives from receiving bonuses during any period of conservatorship.
In April 2019, legislation was introduced in the U.S. Senate that would prohibit either Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac from transferring or delegating any duty or responsibility, as of November 25, 2015, of its chief executive officer to any other position. The legislation would also provide that the Director of FHFA may be removed for cause for approving the compensation of any chief executive officer of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac at a level greater than that permitted under the Equity in Government Compensation Act of 2015.
As our conservator, FHFA has the authority to approve the terms and amount of our executive compensation, and may require us to make changes to our executive compensation program. For example:
In August 2019, FHFA directed us, for so long as we are in conservatorship, to:
increase the mandatory deferral period for at-risk deferred salary received by senior vice presidents and above from one year to two years, effective January 1, 2022 for executives hired before January 1, 2020 and effective January 1, 2020 for executives hired on or after January 1, 2020; and
limit base salaries for all of our employees to $600,000. (We do not currently pay any of our employees, including our named executive officers, a base salary of more than $600,000.)
In September 2019, FHFA directed us to submit for conservator decision any compensation arrangement for a newly hired employee where the proposed total target direct compensation is $600,000 or above, or any increase in total target direct compensation for an existing employee where the proposed total target direct compensation is $600,000 or above. This directive became effective in October 2019 and continues for so long as we are in conservatorship.
The terms of our senior preferred stock purchase agreement with Treasury contain specified restrictions relating to compensation, including a prohibition on selling or issuing equity securities without Treasury’s prior written consent, which effectively eliminates our ability to offer equity-based compensation to our employees.
As a result of the restrictions on our compensation practices, we have not been able to incent and reward excellent performance with compensation structures that provide upside potential to our executives, which places us at a disadvantage compared to many other companies in attracting and retaining executives. In addition, the uncertainty of potential action by Congress or the Administration with respect to housing finance reform, which may result in the wind-down or significant restructuring of the company, and with respect to the compensation and role of our executives, also negatively affects our ability to retain and recruit executives and other employees.
Our inability to offer market-based compensation to our chief executive officer also makes retention and succession planning for this position difficult. We believe the limit applicable to our chief executive officer compensation negatively affected our ability to retain our former Chief Executive Officer, who left the company in October 2018.
We face competition from the financial services and technology industries, and from businesses outside of these industries, for qualified executives and other employees. If we are unable to retain, promote and attract executives and other employees with the necessary skills and talent, we would face increased risks for operational failures. If there were several high-level departures at approximately the same time, our ability to conduct our business would likely be materially adversely affected, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
Our business activities are significantly affected by the conservatorship and the senior preferred stock purchase agreement and could be significantly impacted by Treasury’s September 2019 Housing Reform Plan.
We are currently under the control of our conservator, FHFA, and we do not know when or how the conservatorship will terminate. As conservator, FHFA can direct us to enter into contracts or enter into contracts on our behalf, and generally has the power to transfer or sell any of our assets or liabilities. In addition, our directors have no fiduciary duties to any person or entity except to the conservator. Accordingly, our directors are not obligated to consider the interests of the company, the holders of our equity or debt securities, or the holders of Fannie Mae MBS in making or approving a decision unless specifically directed to do so by the conservator.
We are subject to significant restrictions on our business activities during conservatorship. We may be prevented by our conservator from engaging in business activities or transactions that we believe would benefit our business and financial results. For example, because FHFA must approve changes to the national loan level price adjustments we charge and can direct us to make other changes to our guaranty fee pricing, our ability to address changing market conditions, pursue certain strategic objectives, or manage the mix of loans lenders choose to deliver to us is constrained. We publish national risk-based loan level price adjustment grids that specify the additional cash fees we charge at the time we acquire a loan based on the credit characteristics of the loan. These fees allow us to price appropriately for the credit risk we assume in providing our guaranty on the loans. We do not have the ability to implement changes to these pricing grids without the approval of FHFA. If

the mix of our single-family loan acquisitions changes, and FHFA does not approve requested changes to our pricing grids in response to these changes, it could adversely affect our financial results and condition. In addition, if FHFA directs us to change our pricing in any manner—including increases or decreases in our base guaranty fees or our loan level price adjustments—it could result in a decrease in our guaranty fee revenues in future periods, a decrease in our single-family business volume or a negative impact on the credit risk profile of our new single-family acquisitions, any of which could adversely affect our financial results and condition.
Because we are under the control of our conservator, our business objectives may not be consistent with the investment objectives of our investors. We are devoting significant resources to meeting FHFA’s goals for our conservatorship and expect to continue to do so. We may be required by our conservator to engage in activities that are operationally difficult, costly to implement or unprofitable, or that may adversely affect our financial results or the credit risk profile of our book of business. In addition, actions we take to meet FHFA’s strategic goals and objectives for our conservatorship could adversely affect our financial results. FHFA has changed our business objectives significantly since we entered conservatorship and could make additional changes at any time, any of which could materially affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Even if we are released from conservatorship, we remain subject to the terms of the senior preferred stock purchase agreement, senior preferred stock and warrant, which can only be canceled or modified with the consent of Treasury. Moreover, restrictions on our business and activities imposed by the terms of the senior preferred stock and the senior preferred stock purchase agreement may be applied to us through regulation or legislation even if we cease to be subject to these agreements and instruments. The senior preferred stock purchase agreement with Treasury includes a number of covenants that significantly restrict our business activities. We cannot, without the prior written consent of Treasury: pay dividends (except on the senior preferred stock); sell, issue, purchase or redeem Fannie Mae equity securities; sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of assets except in specified situations; engage in transactions with affiliates other than on arm’s-length terms or in the ordinary course of business; issue subordinated debt; incur indebtedness that would result in our aggregate indebtedness exceeding $300 billion; or seek or permit the termination of our conservatorship (other than in connection with receivership). In deciding whether to consent to any request for approval it receives from us under the agreement, Treasury has the right to withhold its consent for any reason and is not required by the agreement to consider any particular factors, including whether or not management believes that the transaction would benefit the company. Pursuant to the senior preferred stock purchase agreement, the amount of mortgage assets that we may own is limited to $250 billion. In addition, FHFA has directed that we further cap our mortgage assets at $225 billion.
Given FHFA’s control over Fannie Mae as our conservator and its authority as our regulator, and given the restrictions and obligations that apply to Fannie Mae as a result of our senior preferred stock purchase agreement with Treasury, the senior preferred stock and the warrant, possible future changes in leadership at FHFA or the Administration could result in significant changes in our goals, our business and our financial results.
As described in “MD&A—Legislation and Regulation” in this report, Treasury recently released its plan to reform the housing finance system. The Treasury plan includes recommendations for administrative reforms that would impose additional restrictions on our business activities, including further limits on the size of our retained mortgage portfolio and potential ​limits on our current products, services, and other single-family activities and on our multifamily footprint. Our letter agreement with Treasury of September 27, 2019, contemplates the negotiation and execution of an amendment to the senior preferred stock purchase agreement to adopt covenants broadly consistent with these recommendations. Limitations on our business activities could restrict our potential sources of revenue, impose additional costs on us, negatively impact our ability to compete, or otherwise negatively affect our business, results and financial condition.
Actions taken by the conservator, the restrictions set forth in the senior preferred stock purchase agreement, including those contemplated by the letter agreement with Treasury, and some of the recommendations in the Treasury plan, if implemented, could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and net worth.
A number of lawsuits have been filed against the U.S. government relating to the senior preferred stock purchase agreement and the conservatorship. See “Note 13, Commitments and Contingencies” and “Legal Proceedings” for a description of these lawsuits. These lawsuits, and actions Treasury or FHFA may take in response to these lawsuits, could have a material impact on our business.
We may undertake efforts that adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and net worth.
In conservatorship our business has not been managed with a strategy to maximize shareholder returns while fulfilling our mission. In pursuit of FHFA’s previous strategic goals for our conservatorship, which are described in our 2018 Form 10-K in “Business—Conservatorship, Treasury Agreements and Housing Finance Reform—Housing Finance Reform—Conservator Developments and Strategic Goals,” we have been taking a variety of actions that could adversely affect our economic returns, possibly significantly, such as modifying loans to help struggling borrowers; expanding our underwriting and eligibility requirements to increase access to mortgage credit; increasing our use of credit risk transfer transactions, which effectively reduces the guaranty fee income we retain on the covered loans; and issuing structured securities backed by Freddie Mac-issued securities. On October 28, 2019, FHFA released new strategic goals and key priorities for our conservatorship, which are discussed in “MD&A—Legislation and Regulation—New FHFA Strategic Plan for Conservatorships and 2020 Scorecard.” Efforts we take in support of our conservator’s new or future goals may have short- and long-term adverse effects on our business and competitive position, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and net worth.

Other agencies of the U.S. government or Congress also may ask us to take actions to support the housing and mortgage markets or in support of other goals. These actions may adversely affect our financial results and condition. For example, in December 2011 Congress enacted the TCCA under which, at the direction of FHFA, we increased the guaranty fee on all single-family residential mortgages delivered to us by 10 basis points effective April 1, 2012. The revenue generated by this fee increase is paid to Treasury and helps offset the cost of a two-month extension of the payroll tax cut in 2012.
We are also required by the GSE Act to undertake efforts in support of the housing market that could adversely affect our financial results and condition. For example, we are subject to housing goals under the GSE Act that require that a portion of the mortgage loans we acquire must be for low- and very low-income families, families in low-income census tracts and moderate-income families in minority census tracts or designated disaster areas. In addition, in December 2016, FHFA issued a final rule to implement our new duty to serve very low-, low- and moderate-income families in three underserved markets: manufactured housing, affordable housing preservation and rural areas. We may take actions to meet our housing goals and duty to serve obligations that could adversely affect our profitability. For example, we may acquire loans that offer lower expected returns on our investment than our other loan acquisitions and that may potentially increase our credit losses and credit-related expenses. If we do not meet our housing goals or duty to serve requirements, and FHFA finds that the goals or requirements were feasible, we may become subject to a housing plan that could require us to take additional steps that could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. The potential penalties for failure to comply with housing plan requirements include a cease-and-desist order and civil money penalties. See “Business—Charter Act and Regulation—GSE Act and Other Regulation” in our 2018 Form 10-K for more information on our housing goals and duty to serve underserved markets.
The conservatorship and agreements with Treasury have had, and will continue to have, a material adverse effect on our common and preferred shareholders.
The material adverse effects of the conservatorship and our agreements with Treasury include the following:
No voting rights during conservatorship. The rights and powers of our shareholders are suspended during conservatorship. During conservatorship, our common shareholders do not have the ability to elect directors or to vote on other matters unless the conservator delegates this authority to them.
No dividends to common or preferred shareholders, other than to Treasury. Our conservator announced in September 2008 that we would not pay any dividends on the common stock or on any series of preferred stock, other than the senior preferred stock, while we are in conservatorship. In addition, under the terms of the senior preferred stock purchase agreement, dividends may not be paid to common or preferred shareholders (other than on the senior preferred stock) without the prior written consent of Treasury, regardless of whether we are in conservatorship.
Our profits directly increase the liquidation preference on Treasury’s senior preferred stock and, once they exceed our capital reserve amount, will be payable to Treasury as dividends. The senior preferred stock ranks senior to our common stock and all other series of our preferred stock, as well as any capital stock we issue in the future, as to both dividends and distributions upon liquidation. Accordingly, if we are liquidated, the senior preferred stock is entitled to its then-current liquidation preference (which includes any accumulated but unpaid dividends), before any distribution is made to the holders of our common stock or other preferred stock. The liquidation preference on the senior preferred stock was $127.2 billion as of September 30, 2019. Effective September 30, 2019, the liquidation preference of the senior preferred stock increases at the end of each quarter by an amount equal to the increase in our net worth, if any, during the immediately prior fiscal quarter, until such time as the liquidation preference has increased by $22 billion. The liquidation preference would increase further if we draw on Treasury’s funding commitment with respect to any future quarters or if we do not pay dividends owed on the senior preferred stock. If we are liquidated, it is uncertain that there would be sufficient funds remaining after payment of amounts to our creditors and to Treasury as holder of the senior preferred stock to make any distribution to holders of our common stock and other preferred stock.
Pursuant to the dividend provisions of the senior preferred stock and quarterly directives from our conservator, we are obligated to pay Treasury each quarter any dividends declared consisting of the amount, if any, by which our net worth as of the end of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter exceeds the $25 billion capital reserve amount.
As a result, our net income is not available to common shareholders or preferred shareholders other than Treasury as holder of the senior preferred stock.
Exercise of the Treasury warrant would substantially dilute the investment of current shareholders. If Treasury exercises its warrant to purchase shares of our common stock equal to 79.9% of the total number of shares of our common stock outstanding on a fully diluted basis, the ownership interest in the company of our then-existing common shareholders will be substantially diluted, and we would thereafter have a controlling shareholder.
No longer managed for the benefit of shareholders. Because we are in conservatorship, we are no longer managed with a strategy to maximize shareholder returns.
The senior preferred stock purchase agreement, senior preferred stock and warrant can only be canceled or modified with the consent of Treasury. For additional description of the conservatorship and our agreements with Treasury, see “Business—Conservatorship, Treasury Agreements and Housing Finance Reform” in our 2018 Form 10-K and “MD&A—Legislation and Regulation—Housing Finance Reform” in this report.

Other Information


The issuance of UMBS and structured securities backed by Freddie Mac-issued securities may have an adverse effect on the liquidity or market value of our MBS. The issuance of UMBS and our reliance on the common securitization platform also increase our counterparty credit risk and operational risk.
On June 3, 2019, we and Freddie Mac began issuing UMBS. We also began using the common securitization platform operated by CSS to perform certain aspects of the securitization process for our single-family Fannie Mae MBS issuances beginning in May 2019. The issuance of UMBS and use of the common securitization platform represent significant changes for the mortgage market and for our securitization operations and business.
Historically, single-family Fannie Mae MBS had a trading advantage over comparable Freddie Mac single-family mortgage-backed securities. The Single Security Initiative has eliminated this trading advantage. We believe this has contributed, and will continue to contribute, to competitive pressure on our single-family guaranty fee pricing.
Uncertainty in connection with UMBS could contribute to declines in the liquidity or market value of Fannie Mae MBS or otherwise adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations. FHFA adopted a rule to align Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac programs, policies and practices that affect the prepayment rates of TBA-eligible mortgage-backed securities. However, these alignment efforts may not be successful and the prepayment rates on Fannie Mae-issued UMBS and Freddie Mac-issued UMBS could diverge. If investors stop accepting the fungibility of Fannie Mae-issued UMBS and Freddie Mac-issued UMBS, or if investors prefer Freddie Mac-issued UMBS over Fannie Mae-issued UMBS, it could adversely affect the volume of our UMBS issuances and the liquidity and market value of Fannie Mae MBS, which could have a significant adverse impact on our business, liquidity, financial condition, net worth and results of operations.
The continued support of FHFA, Treasury, the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, and certain other regulatory bodies is critical to the success of the Single Security Initiative. If any of these entities were to cease its support, the liquidity and market value of Fannie Mae-issued UMBS could be adversely affected. Furthermore, if either we or Freddie Mac exit conservatorship in the future, it is unclear whether our and Freddie Mac’s programs, policies and practices in support of UMBS and resecuritizations of each other’s securities would be sustained.
The Single Security Initiative has also resulted in increased credit risk exposure and operational risk exposure to Freddie Mac. When we resecuritize Freddie Mac-issued UMBS or other Freddie Mac securities, our guaranty of principal and interest extends to the underlying Freddie Mac security. Our risk exposure to Freddie Mac is expected to increase as we issue more structured securities backed directly or indirectly by Freddie Mac-issued securities going forward. In the event Freddie Mac were to fail (for credit or operational reasons) to make a payment due on its securities underlying a Fannie Mae-issued structured security, we would be obligated under our guaranty to fund any shortfall and make the entire payment on the related Fannie Mae-issued structured security on that payment date. Our pricing does not currently reflect any incremental credit, liquidity or operational risk associated with our guaranty of resecuritized Freddie Mac securities. As a result, any failure by Freddie Mac to meet its obligations under the terms of its securities that back structured securities we issue could have a material adverse effect on our earnings and financial condition, and we could be dependent on Freddie Mac and on the senior preferred stock purchase agreements that we and Freddie Mac each have with Treasury to avoid a liquidity event or a default under our guaranty.
The implementation of the Single Security Initiative created significant interdependence between the single-family mortgage securitization programs of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Accordingly, the market value of single-family Fannie Mae MBS could be affected by events relating to Freddie Mac, even if those events do not directly relate to Fannie Mae or Fannie Mae MBS. For example, any actual or perceived change in Freddie Mac’s financial performance or condition, mortgage credit quality, or systems and data reliability could adversely affect the market value of single-family Fannie Mae MBS. Similarly, any disruption in Freddie Mac’s securitization activities or any adverse events affecting Freddie Mac’s significant mortgage sellers and servicers also could adversely affect the market value of single-family Fannie Mae MBS.
We no longer use our individual proprietary securitization function for our single-family MBS issuances. In addition to using the common securitization platform for our newly issued UMBS issuances, we are also now using the common securitization platform for certain ongoing administrative functions for our previously issued and outstanding single-family Fannie Mae MBS. Accordingly, we are reliant on the common securitization platform and CSS for the operation of several of our single-family securitization activities. These activities are complex and present significant operational and technological challenges and risks. Any measures we take to mitigate these challenges and risks might not be sufficient to prevent a disruption to our securitization activities. Our business activities could be adversely affected and the market for single-family Fannie Mae MBS could be disrupted if the common securitization platform were to fail or otherwise become unavailable to us or if CSS were unable to perform its obligations to us. Any such failure or unavailability could have a significant adverse impact on our business, liquidity, financial condition, net worth and results of operations, and could adversely affect the liquidity or market value of our single-family MBS. In addition, a failure by CSS to maintain effective controls and procedures could result in material errors in our reported results or disclosures that are not complete or accurate. See “Risk Factors” in our 2018 Form 10-K for a discussion of other operational risks associated with our implementation of the Single Security Initiative and related internal infrastructure upgrades.

Credit Risk
We may suffer losses if borrowers are unable to obtain property or flood insurance, if their claims under insurance policies are not paid, or if they suffer property damage as a result of a hazard for which we do not require insurance.
In general, we require borrowers to obtain property insurance to cover the risk of damage to their homes resulting from hazards such as fire, wind and, for properties in a Special Flood Hazard Area, flooding. For flood insurance, borrowers generally rely on the National Flood Insurance Program (“NFIP”), which is due to expire on November 21, 2019. While Congress has passed a series of short-term extensions of NFIP since late 2017, if Congress does not extend or re-authorize the program again, the Federal Emergency Management Agency may not have sufficient funds to pay claims for flood damage, and borrowers may not be able to renew their flood insurance coverage or obtain new policies through the NFIP. In addition, the maximum limit of coverage available under NFIP for a single-family residential property is limited to $250,000, which may not be sufficient to cover all losses. If borrowers are unable to obtain property or flood insurance and suffer property damage, if their claims under insurance policies are not paid, or if they suffer property damage as a result of a hazard for which we do not require insurance, such as earthquake damage or flood damage on a property located outside a special flood hazard area, they may not pay their mortgage loans, which would negatively impact our credit losses and credit-related expenses.
Market and Industry Risk
Uncertainty relating to the potential discontinuance of LIBOR after 2021 may adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and net worth.
We routinely engage in transactions involving financial instruments that reference LIBOR, including acquiring loans and securities, selling securities and entering into derivative transactions that reference LIBOR. In 2017, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced its intention to stop persuading or compelling the group of major banks that sustain LIBOR to submit rate quotations after 2021. As a result, it is uncertain whether LIBOR will continue to be quoted after 2021.
Efforts are underway to identify and transition to a set of alternative reference rates. The transition may lead to disruption, including yield volatility on LIBOR-based securities. The Federal Reserve convened a group of private-market participants, known as the Alternative Reference Rate Committee (the “ARRC”), to identify a set of alternative U.S. dollar reference interest rates and an adoption plan for those alternative rates. We are a voting member of the ARRC and participate in its working groups. In 2017, the ARRC recommended an alternative reference rate referred to as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York began publishing SOFR in 2018. However, SOFR is calculated based on different criteria than LIBOR. Accordingly, SOFR and LIBOR may diverge, particularly in times of macroeconomic stress. Since the initial publication of SOFR in 2018, daily changes in SOFR have at times been more volatile than daily changes in comparable benchmark or market rates, and SOFR may be subject to direct influence by activities of the Federal Reserve and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York in ways that other rates may not be. For example, at the direction of the Federal Reserve, in late September 2019, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York began conducting a series of overnight and term repurchase agreement (“repo”) operations to help maintain the federal funds rate within a target range. In October 2019, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York announced that this activity would continue at least through January 2020. These activities directly impact prevailing SOFR rates.
We continue to analyze potential risks associated with the LIBOR transition, including financial, operational, legal, reputational and compliance risks. We have created an enterprise program office focused on this transition, including identifying and monitoring our exposure to LIBOR, updating our infrastructure (including models and systems) to prepare for the transition, and monitoring the market adoption of alternative reference rates and industry-standard contractual fallback provisions.
While many of our LIBOR-indexed financial instruments allow us to take discretionary action to select an alternative reference rate if LIBOR is discontinued, our use of an alternative reference rate may be subject to legal challenges. There is considerable uncertainty as to how the financial services industry will address the discontinuance of LIBOR in financial instruments. This uncertainty could result in disputes and litigation with counterparties and borrowers surrounding the implementation of alternative reference rates in our financial instruments that reference LIBOR. If LIBOR ceases or changes in a manner that causes regulators or market participants to question its viability, financial instruments indexed to LIBOR could experience disparate outcomes based on their contractual terms, ability to amend those terms, market or product type, legal or regulatory jurisdiction, and a host of other factors. There can be no assurance that legislative or regulatory actions will dictate what happens if LIBOR ceases or is no longer viable, or what those actions might be. In addition, while the ARRC was created to ensure a successful transition from LIBOR, there can be no assurance that the ARRC will endorse practices that create a smooth transition and minimize value transfers between market participants, or that its endorsed practices will be broadly adopted by market participants. Divergent industry or market participant actions could result after LIBOR is no longer available or viable. It is uncertain what effect any divergent industry practices will have on the performance of financial instruments, including those that we own or have issued. Alternative reference rates that replace LIBOR may not yield the same or similar economic results over the lives of the financial instruments, which could adversely affect the value of and return on these instruments. The LIBOR transition could result in our paying higher interest rates on our current LIBOR-indexed obligations, adversely affect the yield on and fair value of the loans and securities we hold or guarantee that reference LIBOR, and increase the costs of or affect our ability to effectively use derivative instruments to manage interest rate risk.
In addition, we cannot anticipate how long it will take to develop the systems and processes necessary to adopt SOFR or other benchmark replacements, which may delay and contribute to uncertainty and volatility surrounding the LIBOR transition.

These developments could have a material impact on us, adjustable-rate mortgage borrowers, investors, and our customers and counterparties. This could result in losses, reputational damage, litigation or costs, or otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition, liquidity, net worth or results of operations.
Our business and financial results are affected by general economic conditions, particularly home prices and employment trends, and a deterioration of economic conditions or the financial markets may materially adversely affect our results of operations, net worth and financial condition.
Our business is significantly affected by the status of the U.S. economy, particularly home prices and employment trends. A prolonged period of slow growth in the U.S. economy or any deterioration in general economic conditions or the financial markets could materially adversely affect our results of operations, net worth and financial condition. In general, if home prices decrease, or the unemployment rate increases, it could result in significantly higher levels of credit losses and credit-related expense.
Global economic conditions can also adversely affect our business and financial results. Changes or volatility in market conditions resulting from deterioration in or uncertainty regarding global economic conditions can adversely affect the value of our assets, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations, net worth and financial condition. A slowdown in economic growth around the world remains a concern for policy makers and financial markets. To the extent global economic conditions negatively affect the U.S. economy, they also could negatively affect the credit performance of the loans in our book of business.
Volatility or uncertainty in global political conditions also can significantly affect U.S. economic conditions and financial markets. Currently, there is elevated uncertainty around several unresolved global political events, including the United Kingdom’s exit from the European Union and ongoing international trade negotiations, that could impact global growth and financial markets. See “Risk Factors” in our 2018 Form 10-K for a description of the risks to our business posed by changes in interest rates and changes in spreads. In addition, as described in “Risk Factors” in our 2018 Form 10-K, future changes or disruptions in the financial markets could significantly change the amount, mix and cost of funds we obtain, as well as our liquidity position.
A decline in activity in the U.S. housing market, increasing interest rates, or longer-term effects of tax law changes could lower our business volumes or otherwise adversely affect our results of operations, net worth and financial condition.
Our business volume is affected by the rate of growth in total U.S. residential mortgage debt outstanding and the size of the U.S. residential mortgage market. A decline in mortgage debt outstanding reduces the unpaid principal balance of mortgage loans available for us to acquire, which in turn could reduce our net interest income. Even if we were able to increase our share of the secondary mortgage market, it may not be sufficient to make up for a decline in the rate of growth in mortgage originations.
Mortgage interest rates also affect our business volume. Rising interest rates generally result in fewer mortgage originations, particularly for refinances. An increase in interest rates, particularly if the increase is sudden and steep, could significantly reduce our business volume. Significant reductions in our business volume could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
The cap on mortgage interest deductions, the increase in the amount of the standard deduction and other changes in tax laws may also adversely affect housing demand, home prices or other housing or mortgage market conditions, which could impact our business volumes and adversely affect our results of operations, net worth and financial condition.
The continued run-off of mortgage-backed securities from the Federal Reserve’s portfolio could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and net worth.
In recent years, the Federal Reserve has purchased a significant amount of mortgage-backed securities issued by us, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae. In October 2017, the Federal Reserve initiated a balance sheet normalization program to reduce its holdings of Treasury securities and mortgage-backed securities. While the Federal Reserve stopped the run-off of U.S. Treasury securities from its portfolio in September 2019, it continued to allow its mortgage-backed securities to run-off, replacing the principal balance with U.S. Treasuries and thus holding the portfolio constant. This may create upward pressure on mortgage interest rates and reduce demand for mortgage-backed securities, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and net worth.
Legal, Regulatory and Other Risks
Regulatory changes in the financial services industry may negatively impact our business.
Changes in the regulation of the financial services industry are affecting and are expected to continue to affect many aspects of our business. Examples of regulatory changes that have affected us or may affect us in the future include: rules requiring the clearing of certain derivatives transactions and margin and capital rules for uncleared derivative trades, which impose additional costs on us; and the development of single-counterparty credit limit regulations, which could cause our customers to change their business practices.

Our business and results may be adversely affected by changes in the CFPB’s “ability-to-repay” rule to replace the “qualified mortgage patch,” pursuant to which a special class of conventional mortgage loans are considered “qualified mortgages” under the Truth in Lending Act if they (1) meet certain qualified mortgage requirements generally and (2) are eligible for sale to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. The qualified mortgage patch is scheduled to expire on the earlier of January 10, 2021 or when Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac cease to be in conservatorship or receivership. In July 2019, the CFPB issued an advance notice of proposed rulemaking relating to the expiration of the qualified mortgage patch, and in September 2019, in the Treasury plan, Treasury recommended that the CFPB establish a bright-line safe harbor to replace the qualified mortgage patch. Although the ability-to-repay rule does not apply directly to us, the rule applies to the lenders from which we acquire single-family mortgage loans. And because FHFA has directed that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac shall only acquire loans that are qualified mortgages under the ability-to-repay rule, changes in the rule may reduce the number of loans that are eligible for delivery to us, and may increase the competition we face for the acquisition and guaranty of such loans.
Changes to financial regulations could affect our business directly or indirectly if they affect our customers and counterparties. Changes in regulations applicable to U.S. banks could also affect our business, as U.S. banks purchase a large amount of our debt securities and MBS. New or revised liquidity or capital requirements applicable to U.S. banks could materially affect demand by those banks for our debt securities and MBS in the future.
The actions of Treasury, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, the SEC, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve and international central banking authorities directly or indirectly impact financial institutions’ cost of funds for lending, capital-raising and investment activities, which could increase our borrowing costs or make borrowing more difficult for us. Changes in monetary policy are beyond our control and difficult to anticipate.
Overall, these legislative and regulatory changes could affect us in substantial and unforeseeable ways and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and net worth.
Legislative, regulatory or judicial actions could negatively impact our business, results of operations, financial condition or net worth.
Legislative, regulatory or judicial actions at the federal, state or local level could negatively impact our business, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity or net worth. Legislative, regulatory or judicial actions could affect us in a number of ways, including by imposing significant additional costs on us and diverting management attention or other resources. For example, we could be affected by:
Legislation designed to affect how we and Freddie Mac manage our business. For example, legislation introduced in the U.S. Senate in April 2019 would prohibit either Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac from transferring or delegating any duty or responsibility, as of November 25, 2015, of its chief executive officer to any other position. If enacted, this legislation could negatively impact our business by requiring us to change our current management structure and limiting our ability to determine the roles and responsibilities of our executives in response to evolving business needs.
Designation as a systemically important financial institution. The Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs held a hearing in June 2019 on whether we should be regulated as a systemically important financial institution, which would result in our becoming subject to additional regulation and oversight by the Federal Reserve Board.
Legislative or regulatory changes that expand our, or our servicers’, responsibility and liability for securing, maintaining or otherwise overseeing vacant properties prior to foreclosure, which could increase our costs.
State laws and court decisions granting new or expanded priority rights over our mortgages to homeowners associations or through initiatives that provide a lien priority to loans used to finance energy efficiency or similar improvements, which could adversely affect our ability to recover our losses on affected loans.
State and local laws and regulations expanding rent control and other tenant protections, such as New York’s Housing Stability and Tenant Protection Act of 2019, which could negatively affect the housing market in the applicable areas and increase our credit risk on the loans we guarantee in those areas.
In addition, our business could be materially adversely affected by legislative and regulatory actions relating to housing finance reform or the financial services industry, or by legal or regulatory proceedings. We describe many of these actions and proceedings in these risk factors and in “Risk Factors” in our 2018 Form 10-K.
Item 2.  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Recent Sales of Unregistered Equity Securities
Under the terms of our senior preferred stock purchase agreement with Treasury, we are prohibited from selling or issuing our equity interests, other than as required by (and pursuant to) the terms of a binding agreement in effect on September 7, 2008, without the prior written consent of Treasury. During the quarter ended September 30, 2019, we did not sell any equity securities.
Information about Certain Securities Issuances by Fannie Mae
Pursuant to SEC regulations, public companies are required to disclose certain information when they incur a material direct financial obligation or become directly or contingently liable for a material obligation under an off-balance sheet arrangement. The disclosure must be made in a current report on Form 8-K under Item 2.03 or, if the obligation is incurred in connection with certain types of securities offerings, in prospectuses for that offering that are filed with the SEC.
Because the securities we issue are exempted securities under the Securities Act of 1933, we do not file registration statements or prospectuses with the SEC with respect to our securities offerings. To comply with the disclosure requirements of Form 8-K relating to the incurrence of material financial obligations, we report our incurrence of these types of obligations either in offering circulars or prospectuses (or supplements thereto) that we post on our website or in a current report on Form 8-K that we file with the SEC, in accordance with a “no-action” letter we received from the SEC staff in 2004. In cases where the information is disclosed in a prospectus or offering circular posted on our website, the document will be posted on our website within the same time period that a prospectus for a non-exempt securities offering would be required to be filed with the SEC.
The website address for disclosure about our debt securities is www.fanniemae.com/debtsearch. From this address, investors can access the offering circular and related supplements for debt securities offerings under Fannie Mae’s universal debt facility, including pricing supplements for individual issuances of debt securities.
Disclosure about our obligations pursuant to the MBS we issue, some of which may be off-balance sheet obligations, can be found at www.fanniemae.com/mbsdisclosure. From this address, investors can access information and documents about our MBS, including prospectuses and related prospectus supplements.
We are providing our website address solely for your information. Information appearing on our website is not incorporated into this report.
Our Purchases of Equity Securities
We did not repurchase any of our equity securities during the third quarter of 2019.
Dividend Restrictions
Our payment of dividends is subject to the following restrictions:
Restrictions Relating to Conservatorship. Our conservator announced on September 7, 2008 that we would not pay any dividends on the common stock or on any series of preferred stock, other than the senior preferred stock. In addition, FHFA’s regulations relating to conservatorship and receivership operations prohibit us from paying any dividends while in conservatorship unless authorized by the Director of FHFA. The Director of FHFA has directed us to make dividend payments on the senior preferred stock on a quarterly basis for every dividend period for which dividends were payable.
Restrictions Under Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and Senior Preferred Stock. The senior preferred stock purchase agreement prohibits us from declaring or paying any dividends on Fannie Mae equity securities (other than the senior preferred stock) without the prior written consent of Treasury. In addition, pursuant to the dividend provisions of the senior preferred stock and quarterly directives from our conservator, we are obligated to pay Treasury each quarter any dividends declared consisting of the amount, if any, by which our net worth as of the end of the immediately preceding fiscal

quarter exceeds $25 billion. As a result, our net income is not available to common stockholders. For more information on the terms of the senior preferred stock purchase agreement and senior preferred stock, see “Business—Conservatorship, Treasury Agreements and Housing Finance Reform” in our 2018 Form 10-K and “MD&A—Legislation and Regulation—Letter Agreement with Treasury” in this report.
Additional Restrictions Relating to Preferred Stock. Payment of dividends on our common stock is also subject to the prior payment of dividends on our preferred stock and our senior preferred stock. Payment of dividends on all outstanding preferred stock, other than the senior preferred stock, is also subject to the prior payment of dividends on the senior preferred stock.
Statutory Restrictions. Under the GSE Act, FHFA has authority to prohibit capital distributions, including payment of dividends, if we fail to meet our capital requirements. If FHFA classifies us as significantly undercapitalized, approval of the Director of FHFA is required for any dividend payment. Under the Charter Act and the GSE Act, we are not permitted to make a capital distribution if, after making the distribution, we would be undercapitalized. The Director of FHFA, however, may permit us to repurchase shares if the repurchase is made in connection with the issuance of additional shares or obligations in at least an equivalent amount and will reduce our financial obligations or otherwise improve our financial condition.

Exhibit 3.1

FEDERAL NATIONAL MORTGAGE ASSOCIATION CHARTER ACT
Title III of National Housing Act, 12 U.S.C. 1716 et seq.
As amended through July 25, 2019


12 U.S.C. § 1716

SEC. 301. DECLARATION OF PURPOSES OF TITLE

The Congress declares that the purposes of this title are to establish secondary market facilities for residential mortgages, to provide that the operations thereof shall be financed by private capital to the maximum extent feasible, and to authorize such facilities to-

(1) provide stability in the secondary market for residential mortgages;

SEC. 302. FEDERAL NATIONAL MORTGAGE ASSOCIATION AND GOVERNMENT NATIONAL MORTGAGE ASSOCIATION

(a) CREATION; SUCCESSION; PRINCIPAL AND OTHER OFFICES.-

(1) There is created a body corporate to be known as the “Federal National Mortgage Association”, which shall be in the Department of Housing and Urban Development. The Association shall have succession until dissolved by Act of Congress. It shall maintain its principal office in the District of Columbia and shall be deemed, for purposes of venue in civil actions, to be a resident thereof. Agencies or offices may be established by the Association in such other place or places as it may deem necessary or appropriate in the conduct of its business.

(2) On September 1, 1968, the body corporate described in the foregoing paragraph shall cease to exist in that form and is hereby partitioned into two separate and distinct bodies corporate, each of which shall have continuity and corporate succession as a separated portion of the previously existing body corporate, as follows:






(A) One of such separated portions shall be a body corporate without capital stock to be known as Government National Mortgage Association (hereinafter referred to as the “Association”), which shall be in the Department of Housing and Urban Development and which shall retain the assets and liabilities acquired and incurred under sections 305 and 306 prior to such date, including any and all liabilities incurred pursuant to subsection (c) of this section. The Association shall have succession until dissolved by Act of Congress. It shall maintain its principal office in the District of Columbia and shall be deemed, for purposes of venue in civil actions, to be a resident thereof. Agencies or offices may be established by the Association in such other place or places as it may deem necessary or appropriate in the conduct of its business.

(B) The other such separated portion shall be a body corporate to be known as Federal National Mortgage Association (hereinafter referred to as the “corporation”), which shall retain the assets and liabilities acquired and incurred under sections 303 and 304 prior to such date. The corporation shall have succession until dissolved by Act of Congress. It shall maintain its principal office in the District of Columbia or the metropolitan area thereof and shall be deemed, for purposes of jurisdiction and venue in civil actions, to be a District of Columbia corporation.

(3) The partition transaction effected pursuant to the foregoing paragraph constitutes a reorganization within the meaning of section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986; and for the purposes of such Code, no gain or loss is recognized by the previously existing body corporate by reason of the partition, and the basis and holding period of the assets of the corporation immediately following such partition are the same as the basis and holding period of such assets immediately prior to such partition.

(b) PURCHASE AND SALE OF INSURED AND CONVENTIONAL MORT-GAGES; TRANSACTIONS IN LOANS AND ADVANCES OF CREDIT.-

(1) For the purposes set forth in section 301 and subject to the limitations and restrictions of this title, each of the bodies corporate named in subsection (a)(2) is authorized, pursuant to commitments or otherwise, to purchase, service, sell, or otherwise deal in any mortgages which are insured under the National Housing Act or title V of the Housing Act of 1949, or which are insured or guaranteed under the Servicemen’s Readjustment Act of 1944 or chapter 37 of title 38, United States Code; and to purchase, service, sell, or otherwise deal in any loans made or guaranteed under part B of title VI of the Public Health Service Act; and the corporation is author-ized to lend on the security of any such mortgages and to purchase, sell, or otherwise deal in any securities guaranteed by the Association under section 306(g): Provided, That (1) the Association may not purchase any mortgage at a price exceeding 100 per centum of the unpaid principal amount thereof at the time of purchase, with adjustments for interest and any comparable items; (2) the Association may not purchase any mortgage, except a mortgage insured under title V of the Housing Act of 1949, if it is offered by, or covers property held by, a State, territorial, or municipal instrumentality; and (3) the Association may not purchase any mortgage under section 305, except a mortgage insured under section 220 or title VIII or section 203(k), or under title IX with respect to a new community approved under section 1004 thereof, or insured under section 213 and covering property located in an urban renewal area, or a mortgage covering property located in Alaska, Guam, or Hawaii, if the original principal obligation thereof exceeds or exceeded $55,000 in the case of property upon which is located a dwelling designed principally for a one-family residence; or $60,000 in the case of a two- or three-family residence; or $68,750 in the case of a four-family residence; or, in the case of a property containing more than four dwelling units, $38,000 per dwelling unit (or such higher amount not in excess of $45,000 per dwelling unit as the Secretary may by regulation specify in any geographical area where the Secretary finds that cost levels so require) for that part of the property attributable to dwelling use.





Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (3) of the preceding sentence, the Association may purchase a mortgage under section 305 with an original principal obligation which exceeds the other-wise applicable maximum amount per dwelling unit if the mortgage is insured under section 207(c)(3), 213(b)(2), 220(d)(3)(B)(iii), 221(d)(3)(ii), 221(d)(4)(ii), 231(c)(2), 234(e)(3), or 236. For the purposes of this title, the terms “mortgages” and “home mortgages” shall be inclusive of any mortgages or other loans insured under any of the provisions of the National Housing Act or title V of the Housing Act of 1949.

(2) For the purposes set forth in section 301(a), the corporation is authorized, pursuant to commitments or otherwise, to purchase, service, sell, lend on the security of, or otherwise deal in mortgages which are not insured or guaranteed as provided in paragraph (1) (such mortgages referred to hereinafter as “conventional mortgages”). No such purchase of a conventional mortgage secured by a property comprising one- to four-family dwelling units shall be made if the outstanding principal balance of the mortgage at the time of purchase exceeds 80 per centum of the value of the property securing the mortgage, unless (A) the seller retains a participation of not less than 10 per centum in the mortgage; (B) for such period and under such circumstances as the corporation may require, the seller agrees to repurchase or replace the mortgage upon demand of the corporation in the event that the mortgage is in default; or (C) that portion of the unpaid principal balance of the mortgage which is in excess of such 80 per centum is guaranteed or insured by a qualified insurer as determined by the corp-ora-tion. The corporation shall not issue a commitment to purchase a conventional mortgage prior to the date the mortgage is originated, if such mortgage is eligible for purchase under the preceding sentence only by reason of compliance with the requirements of clause (A) of such sentence. The corporation may purchase a conventional mortgage which was originated more than one year prior to the purchase date only if the seller is the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Resolution Trust Corporation, the National Credit Union Administration, or any other seller currently engaged in mortgage lending or investing activities. For the purpose of this section, the term “conventional mortgages” shall include a mortgage, lien, or other security interest on the stock or membership certificate issued to a tenant-stockholder or resident-member of a cooperative housing corporation, as defined in section 216 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, and on the proprietary lease, occupancy agreement or right of tenancy in the dwelling unit of the tenant-stockholder or resident-member in such cooperative housing corporation. The corporation shall establish limitations governing the maximum original principal obligation of conventional mortgages that are purchased by it; in any case in which the corporation purchases a participation interest in such a mortgage, the limitation shall be calculated with respect to the total original principal obligation of the mortgage and not merely with respect to the interest purchased by the corporation. Such limitations shall not exceed $417,000 for a mortgage secured by a single-family residence, $533,850 for a mortgage secured by a 2-family residence, $645,300 for a mortgage secured by a 3-family residence, and $801,950 for a mortgage secured by a 4-family residence, except that such maximum limitations shall be adjusted effective January 1 of each year beginning after the effective date of the Federal Housing Finance Regulatory Reform Act of 2008 [July 30, 2008], subject to the limitations in this paragraph. Each adjustment shall be made by adding to each such amount (as it may have been previously adjusted) a percentage thereof equal to the percentage increase, during the most recent 12-month or 4-quarter period ending before the time of determining such annual adjustment, in the housing price index maintained by the Director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency) pursuant to section 1322 of the Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992 (12 U.S.C. 4541)). If the change in such house price index during the most recent 12-month or 4-quarter period ending before the time of determining such annual adjustment is a decrease, then no adjustment shall be made for the next year, and the next adjustment shall take into account prior declines in the house price index, so that any adjustment shall reflect the net change in the house price index since the last adjustment.





Declines in the house price index shall be accumulated and then reduce increases until subsequent increases exceed prior declines. The foregoing limitations may be increased by not to exceed 50 per centum with respect to the properties located in Alaska, Guam, Hawaii, and the Virgin Islands. Such foregoing limitations shall also be increased, with respect to properties of a particular size located in any area for which 115 percent of the median house price for such size residence exceeds the foregoing limitation for such size residence, to the lesser of 150 percent of such limitation for such size residence or the amount that is equal to 115 percent of the median house price in such area for such size residence.

(3) The corporation is authorized to purchase, service, sell, lend on the security of, and otherwise deal in loans or advances of credit for the purchase and installation of home improvements, including energy conserving improvements or solar energy systems described in the last paragraph of section 2(a) of the National Housing Act and residential energy conservation measures as described in section 210(11) of the National Energy Conservation Policy Act and financed by a public utility in accordance with the requirements of title II of such Act. To be eligible for purchase, any such loan or advance of credit (other than a loan or advance made with respect to energy conserving improvements or solar energy systems or residential energy conservation measures) not insured under title I of the National Housing Act shall be secured by a lien against the property to be improved.


(4) The corporation is authorized to purchase, service, sell, lend on the security of, and otherwise deal in loans or advances of credit secured by mortgages or other liens against manufactured homes.

(5)(A) The corporation is authorized to purchase, service, sell, lend on the security of, and otherwise deal in (i) conventional mortgages that are secured by a subordinate lien against a one- to four-family residence that is the principal residence of the mortgagor; and (ii) conventional mortgages that are secured by a subordinate lien against a property comprising five or more family dwelling units. If the corporation, pursuant to paragraphs (1) through (4), shall have purchased, serviced, sold, or otherwise dealt with any other outstanding mortgage secured by the same residence, the aggregate original amount of such other mortgage and the mortgage authorized to be purchased, serviced, sold, or otherwise dealt with under this paragraph shall not exceed the applicable limitation determined under paragraph (2).

(B) The corporation shall establish limitations governing the maximum original principal obligation of conventional mortgages described in subparagraph (A). In any case in which the corporation purchases a participation interest in such a mortgage, the limitation shall be calculated with respect to the total original principal obligation of such mortgage described in subparagraph (A) and not merely with respect to the interest purchased by the corporation. Such limitations shall not exceed (i) with respect to mortgages described in subparagraph (A)(i), 50 per centum of the single-family residence mortgage limitation deter-mined under paragraph (2); and (ii) with respect to mortgages described in subparagraph (A)(ii), the applicable limitation determined under paragraph (2).

(C) No subordinate mortgage against a one- to four-family residence shall be purchased by the corporation if the total outstanding indebtedness secured by the property as a result of such mortgage exceeds 80 per centum of the value of such property unless (i) that portion of such total outstanding indebtedness that exceeds such 80 per centum is guaranteed or insured by a qualified insurer as determined by the corporation; (ii) the seller retains a participation of not less than 10 per centum in the mortgage; or (iii) for such period and under such circumstances as the corporation may require, the seller agrees to repurchase or replace the mortgage upon the demand





of the corporation in the event that the mortgage is in default. The corporation shall not issue a commitment to purchase a subordinate mortgage prior to the date the mortgage is originated, if such mortgage is eligible for purchase under the preceding sentence only by reason of compliance with the requirements of clause (ii) of such sentence.

(6) The corporation may not implement any new program (as such term is defined in section 1303 of the Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992) before obtaining the approval of the Secretary under section 1322 of such Act.

(c) ADMINISTRATION OF TRUSTS; OBLIGATIONS OF DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES OF UNITED STATES; EXEMPTION OF INTEREST INCOME FROM TAXATION; AUTHORIZATION OF APPROPRIATIONS FOR DIFFERENTIAL REIMBURSEMENTS.-






(1) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act or of any other law, the Association is authorized under section 306 to create, accept, execute, and otherwise administer in all respects such trusts, receiverships, conservator-ships, liquidating or other agencies, or other fiduciary and representative undertakings and activities, hereinafter in this subsection called “trusts”, as might be appropriate for financing purposes; and in relation thereto the Association may acquire, hold and manage, dispose of, and otherwise deal in any mortgages or other types of obligations in which any department or agency of the United States listed in paragraph (2) of this subsection may have a financial interest. The Association may join in any such undertakings and activities, hereinafter in this subsection called “trusts”; notwithstanding that it is also serving in a fiduciary or representative capacity; and is authorized to guarantee any participations or other instruments, whether evidence of property rights or debt, issued for such financing purposes. Participations or other instruments issued by the Association pursuant to this subsection shall to the same extent as securities which are direct obligations of or obligations guaranteed as to principal or interest by the United States be deemed to be exempt securities within the meaning of laws administered by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The amounts of any mortgages and other obligations acquired by the Association under section 306, pursuant to this subsection, shall not be included in the total amounts set forth in section 306(c).

(2) Subject to the limitations provided in paragraph (4) of this subsection, one or more trusts may be established as provided in this subsection by each of the following departments or agencies:

(A) The Farmers Home Administration of the Department of Agriculture, but only with respect to operating loans, direct farm owner-ship loans, direct housing loans, and direct soil and water loans. Such trusts may not be established with respect to loans for housing for the elderly under sections 502 and 515(a) of the Housing Act of 1949, nor with respect to loans for nonfarm recreational development.

(B) The Department of Education, but only with respect to loans made by the Secretary of Education for construction of academic facilities, and loans to help finance student loan programs.

(C) The Department of Housing and Urban Development.

(D) The Department of Veterans Affairs.

(E) The Export-Import Bank.

(F) The Small Business Administration.

The head of each such department or agency, hereinafter in this subsection called the “trustor”, is authorized to set aside a part or all of any obligations held by the trustor and subject them to a trust or trusts and, incident thereto, shall guarantee to the trustee timely payment thereof. The trust instrument may provide for the issuance and sale of beneficial interests or participations, by the trustee, in such obligations or in the right to receive interest and principal collections therefrom; and may provide for the substitution or withdrawal of such obligations, or for the substitution of cash for obligations. The trust or trusts shall be exempt from all taxation. The trust instrument may also contain other appropriate provisions in keeping with the purposes of this subsection. The Association shall be named and shall act as trustee of any such trusts and, for the purposes thereof, the title to such obligations shall be deemed to have passed to the Association in trust. The trust instrument shall provide that custody, control, and administration of the obligations shall remain in the trustor subjecting the obligations to the trust, subject to transfer to the trustee in event of default or probable





default, as determined by the trustee, in the payment of principal and interest of the beneficial interests or participations. Collections from obligations subject to the trust shall be dealt with as provided in the instrument creating the trust. The trust instrument shall provide that the trustee will promptly pay to the trustor the full net proceeds of any sale of beneficial interests or participations to the extent they are based upon such obligations or collections. Such proceeds shall be dealt with as otherwise provided by law for sales or repayment of such obligations. The effect of both past and future sales of any issue of beneficial interests or participations shall be the same, to the extent of the principal of such issue, as the direct sale with recourse of the obligations subject to the trust. Any trustor creating a trust or trusts hereunder is authorized to purchase, through the facilities of the trustee, outstanding beneficial interests or participations to the extent of the amount of the trustor’s responsibility to the trustee on beneficial interests or participations outstanding, and to pay the trustor’s proper share of the costs and expenses incurred by the Association as trustee pursuant to the trust instrument.

(3) When any trustor guarantees to the trustee the timely payment of obligations the trustor subjects to a trust pursuant to this subsection, and it becomes necessary for such trustor to meet his responsibilities under such guaranty, the trustor is authorized to fulfill such guaranty.

(4) Beneficial interests or participations shall not be issued for the account of any trustor in an aggregate principal amount greater than is authorized with respect to such trustor in an appropriation Act. Any such authorization shall remain available only for the fiscal year for which it is granted and for the succeeding fiscal year.

(5) The Association, as trustee, is authorized to issue and sell beneficial interests or participations under this subsection, notwithstanding that there may be an insufficiency in aggregate receipts from obligations subject to the related trust to provide for the payment by the trustee (on a timely basis out of current receipts or otherwise) of all interest or principal on such interests or participations (after provision for all costs and expenses incurred by the trustee, fairly prorated among trustors). There are authorized to be appropriated without fiscal year limitation such sums as may be necessary to enable any trustor to pay the trustee such insufficiency as the trustee may require on account of outstanding beneficial interests or participations authorized to be issued pursuant to paragraph (4) of this subsection. Such trustor shall make timely payments to the trustee from such appropriations, subject to and in accord with the trust instrument. In the event that the insufficiency required by the trustee is on account of principal maturities of outstanding beneficial interests or participations authorized to be issued pursuant to paragraph (4) of this subsection, or pursuant hereto, the trustee is authorized to elect to issue additional beneficial interests or participations for refinancing purposes in lieu of requiring any trustor or trustors to make payments to the trustee from appropriated funds or other sources. Each such issue of beneficial interests or participations shall be in an amount deter-mined by the trustee but not in excess of the aggregate amount which the trustee would otherwise require the trustor or trustors to pay from appropriated funds or other sources, and may be issued without regard to the provisions of paragraph (4) of this subsection. All refinancing issues of beneficial interests or participations shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant to the authority contained in the appropriation Act or Acts under which the beneficial interests or participations were originally issued.

(a) COMMON STOCK; PREFERRED STOCK; TRANSFERABILITY OF SHARES.-The corporation shall have common stock, without par value, which shall be vested with all voting rights, each share being entitled to one vote with rights of cumulative voting at all elections of directors. The corporation may





eliminate such rights of cumulative voting by a resolution adopted by its board of directors and approved by the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock voting in person or by proxy at the annual meeting, or other special meeting, at which such resolution is considered. The corpora-tion may have preferred stock on such terms and conditions as the board of directors shall prescribe. The free transferability of the stock at all times to any person, firm, corporation, or other entity shall not be restricted except that, as to the corporation, it shall be transferable only on the books of the corpora-tion. The corporation may issue shares of common stock in return for appropriate payments into capital or capital and surplus.

(b) FEES AND CHARGES; ANNUAL TRANSFER OF EARNINGS TO GENERAL SURPLUS ACCOUNT.-

(1) The corporation may impose charges or fees, which may be regarded as elements of pricing, with the objective that all costs and expenses of the operations of the corporation should be within its income derived from such operations and that such operations should be fully self-supporting.

(2) All earnings from the operations of the corporation shall annually be transferred to the general surplus account of the corporation. At any time, funds of the general surplus account may, in the discretion of the board of directors, be transferred to reserves.


(c) CAPITAL DISTRIBUTIONS FROM GENERAL SURPLUS ACCOUNT; MINIMUM CAPITALIZATION LEVELS.-

(1) Except as provided in paragraph (2), the corporation may make such capital distributions (as such term is defined in section 1303 of the Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992) as may be declared by the board of directors. All capital distributions shall be charged against the general surplus account of the corporation.

(2) The corporation may not make any capital distribution that would decrease the total capital of the corporation (as such term is defined in section 1303 of the Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992) to an amount less than the risk-based capital level for the corporation established under section 1361 of such Act or that would decrease the core capital of the corporation (as such term is defined in section 1303 of such Act) to an amount less than the minimum capital level for the corporation established under section 1362 of such Act, without prior written approval of the distribution by the Director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency.

SEC. 304. SECONDARY MARKET OPERATIONS






(a) PURCHASE AND SALE OF MORTGAGES; SECONDARY MARKET OPERATIONS; ADVANCE OF FUNDS OR ORIGINATION OF LOANS; SETTLEMENT OR EXTINGUISHMENT OF BORROWERS RIGHTS.-

(1) To carry out the purposes set forth in paragraph (a) of section 301, the operations of the corporation under this section shall be confined so far as practicable, to mortgages which are deemed by the corporation to be of such quality, type, and class as to meet, generally, the purchase standards imposed by private institutional mortgage investors. In the interest of assuring sound operation, the prices to be paid by the corporation for mortgages purchased in its secondary market operations under this section, should be established, from time to time, within the range of market prices for the particular class of mortgages involved, as determined by the corporation. The volume of the corporation’s purchases and sales, and the establishment of the purchase prices, sale prices, and charges or fees, in its secondary market operations under this section, should be determined by the corporation from time to time, and such determinations should be consistent with the objectives that such purchases and sales should be effected only at such prices and on such terms as will reasonably prevent excessive use of the corporation’s facilities, and that the operations of the corporation under this section should be within its income derived from such operations and that such operations should be fully self supporting. Nothing in this title shall prohibit the corporation from purchasing, and making commitments to purchase, any mortgage with respect to which the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development has entered into a contract with the corporation to make interest subsidy payments under section 243 of the National Housing Act.

(2) The volume of the corporation’s lending activities and the establishment of its loan ratios, interest rates, maturities, and charges or fees, in its secondary market operations under this section, should be determined by the corporation from time to time; and such determinations, in conjunction with determinations made under paragraph (1), should be consistent with the objectives that the lending activities should be conducted on such terms as will reasonably prevent excessive use of the corporation’s facilities, and that the operations of the corporation under this section should be within its income derived from such operations and that such operations should be fully self-supporting. The corporation shall not be permitted to use its lending authority (A) to advance funds to a mortgage seller on an interim basis, using mortgage loans as collateral, pending the sale of the mortgages in the secondary market; or (B) to originate mortgage loans. Notwithstanding any Federal, State, or other law to the contrary, the corporation is empowered, in connection with any loan under this section, whether before or after any default, to provide by contract with the borrower for the settlement or extinguishment, upon default, of any redemption, equitable, legal, or other right, title, or interest of the borrower in any mortgage or mortgages that constitute the security for the loan; and with respect to any such loan, in the event of default and pursuant otherwise to the terms of the contract, the mortgages that constitute such security shall become the absolute property of the corporation.

(b) OBLIGATIONS OF THE CORPORATION.-For the purposes of this section, the corporation is authorized to issue, upon the approval of the Secretary of the Treasury, and have outstanding at any one time obligations having such maturities and bearing such rate or rates of interest as may be determined by the corporation with the approval of the Secretary of the Treasury, to be redeemable at the option of the corporation before maturity in such manner as may be stipulated in such obligations. The corporation shall insert appropriate language in all of its obligations issued under this subsection clearly indicating that such obligations, together with the interest thereon, are not guaranteed by the United States and do not constitute a debt or obligation of the United States or of any agency or instrumentality thereof other than the corporation. The corporation is authorized to purchase in the open market any of its obligations outstanding under this subsection at any time and at any price.






(c) PURCHASE OF OBLIGATIONS BY TREASURY; CONDITIONS AND RESTRICTIONS.-The Secretary of the Treasury is authorized in the Secretary’s discretion to purchase any obligations issued pursuant to subsection (b) of this section, as now or hereafter in force, and for such purpose the Secretary of the Treasury is authorized to use as a public debt transaction the proceeds of the sale of any securities hereafter issued under chapter 31 of title 31, United States Code, and the purposes for which securities may be issued under chapter 31 of title 31, United States Code, are extended to include such purchases. The Secretary of the Treasury shall not at any time purchase any obligations under this subsection if such purchase would increase the aggregate principal amount of the Secretary’s then outstanding holdings of such obligations under this subsection to an amount greater than $2,250,000,000. Each purchase of obligations by the Secretary of the Treasury under this subsection shall be upon such terms and conditions as to yield a return at a rate determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, taking into consideration the current average rate on outstanding marketable obligations of the United States as of the last day of the month preceding the making of such purchase. The Secretary of the Treasury may, at any time, sell, upon such terms and conditions and at such price or prices as the Secretary shall determine, any of the obligations acquired by the Secretary under this subsection. All redemptions, purchases, and sales by the Secretary of the Treasury of such obligations under this subsection shall be treated as public debt transactions of the United States.

(d) MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES; ISSUANCE; MATURITIES; RATES OF INTEREST; EXEMPT SECURITIES; ADEQUACY OF MORTGAGES TO PERMIT PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST PAYMENTS; STATEMENT IN SECURITIES.-To provide a greater degree of liquidity to the mortgage investment market and an additional means of financing its operations under this section, the corporation is authorized to set aside any mortgages held by it under this section, and, upon approval of the Secretary of the Treasury, to issue and sell securities based upon the mortgages so set aside. Securities issued under this subsection may be in the form of debt obligations or trust certificates of beneficial interest, or both. Securities issued under this subsection shall have such maturities and bear such rate or rates of interest as may be determined by the corporation with the approval of the Secretary of the Treasury. Securities issued by the corporation under this subsection shall, to the same extent as securities which are direct obligations of or obligations guaranteed as to principal and interest by the United States, be deemed to be exempt securities within the meaning of laws administered by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Any of such obligations may be made convertible into shares of common stock in such manner, at such price or prices, and at such time or times as may be stipulated therein.

The corporation shall insert appropriate language in all of its obligations issued under this subsection clearly indicating that such obli-gations, together with the interest thereon, are not guaranteed by the United States and do not constitute a debt or obligation of the United States or of any agency or instrumentality thereof other than the corporation.

(b) ISSUANCE OF OBLIGATIONS TO EXPEDITE SUBSTITUTION OF PRIVATE FINANCING.-For the purposes of this section and to assure that, to the maximum extent, and as rapidly as possible, private financing will be substituted for Treasury borrowings otherwise required to carry mortgages held under the aforesaid separate accountability, the Association is authorized to issue, upon the approval of the Secretary of the Treasury, and have outstanding at any one time obligations having such maturities and bearing such rate or rates of interest as may be determined by the Association with the approval of the Secretary of the Treasury, to be redeemable at the option of the Association before maturity in such manner as may be stipulated in such obligations; but in no event shall any such obligations be issued if, at the time of such proposed issuance, and as a consequence thereof, the resulting aggregate amount of its outstanding obligations under this subsection would exceed the amount of the Association’s ownership under the aforesaid separate accountability, free from any liens or encumbrances, of cash, mortgages, and obligations of the United States or guaranteed thereby, or obligations, participations, or other instruments which are lawful investments for fiduciary, trust or public funds. The proceeds of any private financing effected under this subsection shall be paid to the Secretary of the Treasury in reduction of the indebtedness of the Association to the Secretary of the Treasury under the aforesaid separate accountability. The Association shall insert appropriate language in all of its obligations issued under this subsection clearly indicating that such obligations, together with the interest thereon, are not guaranteed by the United States and do not constitute a debt or obligation of the United States or of any agency or instrumentality thereof other than the Association.

Association under this section shall not, in any event, exceed $3,350,000,000: Provided, That such maximum amount shall be progressively reduced by the amount of cash realizations on account of principal of mortgages held under the aforesaid separate accountability and by cancellation of any commitments to purchase mortgages thereunder, as reflected by the books of the Association, with the objective that the entire aforesaid maximum amount shall be eliminated with the orderly liquidation of all mortgages held under the aforesaid separate accountability: And provided further, That nothing in this subsection shall preclude the Association from granting such usual and customary increases in the amounts of outstanding commitments (resulting from increased costs or otherwise) as have theretofore been covered by like increases in commitments granted by the agencies of the Federal Government insuring or guaranteeing the mortgages. There shall be excluded from the total amounts set forth in this subsection the amounts of any mortgages which, subsequent to May 31, 1954, are transferred by law to the Association and held under the aforesaid separate accountability.

(d) ISSUANCE OF OBLIGATIONS SUFFICIENT TO CARRY OUT FUNCTIONS; CHARACTER; PURCHASE.-The Association may issue to the Secretary of the Treasury its obligations in an amount outstanding at any one time sufficient to enable the Association to carry out its functions under this section, such obligations to mature not more than five years from their respective dates of issue, to be redeemable at the option of the Association before maturity in such manner as may be stipulated in such obligations. Each such obligation shall bear interest at a rate determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, taking into consideration the current average rate on outstanding marketable obligations of the United States as of the last day of the month preceding the issuance of the obligation of the Association. The Secretary of the Treasury is authorized to purchase any obligations of the Association to be issued under this section, and for such purpose the Secretary of the Treasury is authorized to use as a public debt transaction the proceeds from the sale of any securities issued under chapter 31 of title 31, United States Code, and the purpose for which securities may be issued under chapter 31 of title 31, United States Code, are extended to include any purchases of the Association’s obligations hereunder.

There shall be excluded from the total amounts set forth in subsection (c) the amounts of any obligations or mortgages purchased by the Association pursuant to this subsection.

(f) TRANSFER OF FUNDS.-Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Act or of any other law, an amount equal to the net decrease for the preceding fiscal year in the aggregate principal amount of all mortgages owned by the Association under this section shall, as of July 1 of each of the years 1961 through 1964, be transferred to and merged with the authority provided under section 305(a), and the amount of such authority as specified in section 305(c) shall be increased by any amounts so transferred.

(1) The Association is authorized, upon such terms and conditions as it may deem appropriate, to guarantee the timely payment of principal of and interest on such trust certificates or other securities as shall (i) be issued by the corporation under section 304(d), or by any other issuer approved for the purposes of this subsection by the Association, and (ii) be based on and backed by a trust or pool





composed of mortgages which are insured under the National Housing Act, or which are insured or guaranteed under the Servicemen’s Readjustment Act of 1944, title V of the Housing Act of 1949, or chapter 37 of title 38, United States Code, or which are guaranteed under title XIII of the Public Health Service Act; or guaranteed under section 184 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1992. The Association shall collect from the issuer a reasonable fee for any guaranty under this subsection and shall make such charges as it may determine to be reasonable for the analysis of any trust or other security arrangement proposed by the issuer. In the event the issuer is unable to make any payment of principal of or interest on any security guaranteed under this subsection, the Association shall make such payment as and when due in cash, and thereupon shall be subrogated fully to the rights satisfied by such payment. In any case in which (I) Federal law requires the reduction of the interest rate on any mortgage backing a security guaranteed under this subsection, (II) the mortgagor under the mortgage is a person in the military service, and (III) the issuer of such security fails to receive from the mortgagor the full amount of interest payment due, the Association may make payments of interest on the security in amounts not exceeding the difference between the amount payable under the interest rate on the mortgage and the amount of interest actually paid by the mortgagor. The Association is hereby empowered, in connection with any guaranty under this subsection, whether before or after any default, to provide by contract with the issuer for the extinguishment, upon default by the issuer, of any redemption, equitable, legal, or other right, title, or interest of the issuer in any mortgage or mortgages constituting the trust or pool against which the guaranteed securities are issued; and with respect to any issue of guaranteed securities, in the event of default and pursuant otherwise to the terms of the contract, the mortgages that constitute such trust or pool shall become the absolute property of the Association subject only to the unsatisfied rights of the holders of the securities based on and backed by such trust or pool. No State or local law, and no Federal law (except Federal law enacted expressly in limitation of this subsection after the effective date of this sentence [October 8, 1980]), shall preclude or limit the exercise by the Association of (A) its power to contract with the issuer on the terms stated in the preceding sentence, (B) its rights to enforce any such contract with the issuer, or (C) its ownership rights, as provided in the preceding sentence, in the mortgages constituting the trust or pool against which the guaranteed securities are issued. The full faith and credit of the United States is pledged to the payment of all amounts which may be required to be paid under any guaranty under this subsection. There shall be excluded from the total amounts set forth in subsection (c) the amounts of any mortgages acquired by the Association as a result of its operations under this subsection.

(2) Notwithstanding any other provision of law and subject only to the absence of qualified requests for guarantees, to the authority provided in this subsection, and to the extent of or in such amounts as any funding limitation approved in appropriation Acts, the Association shall enter into commit-ments to issue guarantees under this subsection in an aggregate amount of $110,000,000,000 during fiscal year 1996. There are authorized to be appropriated to cover the costs (as such term is defined in section 502 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974) of guarantees issued under this Act by the Association such sums as may be necessary for fiscal year 1996.

(3)(A) No fee or charge in excess of 6 basis points may be assessed or collected by the United States (including any executive department, agency, or independent establishment of the United States) on or with regard to any guaranty of the timely payment of principal or interest on securities or notes based on or backed by mortgages that are secured by 1- to 4-family dwellings and (i) insured by the Federal Housing Administration under title II of the National Housing Act; or (ii) insured or guaranteed under the Serviceman’s Readjustment Act of 1944, chapter 37 of title 38, United States Code, or title V of the Housing Act of 1949.






(B) The fees charged for the guaranty of securities or on notes based on or backed by mortgages not referred to in subparagraph (A), as authorized by other provisions of law, shall be set by the Association at a level not more than necessary to create reserves sufficient to meet anticipated claims based upon actuarial analysis, and for no other purpose.

(C) Fees or charges for the issuance of commitments or miscellaneous administrative fees of the Association shall not be on a competitive auction basis and shall remain at the level set for such fees or charges as of September 1, 1985, except that such fees or charges may be increased if reasonably related to the cost of administering the program, and for no other purpose.

(D) Not less than 90 days before increasing any fee or charge under subparagraph (B) or (C), the Secretary shall submit to the Congress a certification that such increase is solely for the purpose specified in such subparagraph.

(E)(i) Notwithstanding subparagraphs (A) through (D), fees charged for the guarantee of, or commitment to guarantee, multiclass securities backed by a trust or pool of securities or notes guaranteed by the Association under this subsection, and other related fees shall be charged by the Association in an amount the Association deems appropriate. The Association shall take such action as may be necessary to reasonably assure that such portion of the benefit, resulting from the Association’s multiclass securities program, as the Association determines is appropriate accrues to mortgagors who execute eligible mortgages after the date of the enactment of this subparagraph [August 10, 1993].

(ii) The Association shall provide for the initial implementation of the program for which fees are charged under the first sentence of clause (i) by notice published in the Federal Register. The notice shall be effective upon publication and shall provide an opportunity for public comment. Not later than 12 months after publication of the notice, the Association shall issue regulations for such program based on the notice, comments received, and the experience of the Association in carrying out the program during such period.

(iii) The Association shall consult with persons or entities in such manner as the Association deems appropriate to ensure the efficient commencement and operation of the multiclass securities program.

(iv) No State or local law, and no Federal law (except Federal law enacted expressly in limitation of this clause after the effective date of this subparagraph [August 10, 1993]) shall preclude or limit the exercise by the Association of its power to contract with persons or entities, and its rights to enforce such contracts, for the purpose of ensuring the efficient commencement and continued operation of the multiclass securities program.

The Director may not approve any such agreement or contract unless the Director determines that the benefits provided under the agreement or contract are comparable to benefits under such agreements for officers of other public and private entities involved in financial services and housing interests who have comparable duties and responsibilities. For purposes of this subparagraph, any renegotiation, amendment, or change after such date of enactment [October 28, 1992], to any such agreement or contract entered into on or before such date of enactment [October 28, 1992], shall be considered entering into an agreement or contract.

The Federal Housing Finance Agency, exercising its authority pursuant to Section 1367(b) of the Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992 (12 U.S.C. § 4617), as amended, as Conservator of the Federal National Mortgage Association, amends and restates the Certificate of Designation of Terms of Variable Liquidation Preference Senior Preferred Stock, Series 2008-2, in accordance with the Letter Agreement dated as of September 27, 2019. Effective September 30, 2019, the Senior Preferred Stock shall have the following designation, powers, preferences, rights, privileges, qualifications, limitations, restrictions, terms and conditions:

1. Designation, Par Value, Number of Shares and Priority

The designation of the series of preferred stock of the Federal National Mortgage Association (the “Company”) created by this resolution shall be “Variable Liquidation Preference Senior Preferred Stock, Series 2008-2” (the “Senior Preferred Stock”), and the number of shares initially constituting the Senior Preferred Stock is 1,000,000. Shares of Senior Preferred Stock will have no par value and a stated value and initial liquidation preference per share equal to $1,000 per share, subject to adjustment as set forth herein. The Board of Directors of the Company, or a duly authorized committee thereof, in its sole discretion, may reduce the number of shares of Senior Preferred Stock, provided such reduction is not below the number of shares of Senior Preferred Stock then outstanding.

The Senior Preferred Stock shall rank prior to the common stock of the Company as provided in this Certificate and shall rank, as to both dividends and distributions upon dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, prior to (a) the shares of preferred stock of the Company designated “5.25% Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series D”, “5.10% Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series E”, “Variable Rate Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series F”, “Variable Rate Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock , Series G”, “5.81% Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock , Series H”, “5.375% Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series I”, “5.125% Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series L”, “4.75% Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series M”, “5.50% Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series N”, “Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series O”, “Non-Cumulative Convertible Series 2004-1 Preferred Stock”, “Variable Rate Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series P”, “6.75% Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series Q”, “7.625% Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series R”, “Fixed-to-Floating Rate Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series S”, and “8.75% Non-Cumulative Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock”, Series 2008-1”, (b) any other capital stock of the Company outstanding on the date of the initial issuance of the Senior Preferred Stock and (c) any capital stock of the Company that may be issued after the date of initial issuance of the Senior Preferred Stock.

2. Dividends

(a)     For each Dividend Period from the date of the initial issuance of the Senior Preferred Stock through and including December 31, 2012, holders of outstanding shares of Senior Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, ratably, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, out of funds legally available therefor, cumulative cash dividends at the annual rate per share equal to the then-current Dividend Rate on the then-current Liquidation Preference. For each Dividend Period from January 1, 2013, holders of outstanding shares of Senior Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, ratably, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, out of funds legally available therefor, cumulative cash dividends in an amount equal to the then-current Dividend Amount. Dividends on the Senior Preferred Stock shall accrue from but not including the date of the initial issuance of the Senior Preferred Stock and will be payable in arrears when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors quarterly on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year (each, a “Dividend Payment Date”), commencing on December 31, 2008. If a Dividend Payment Date is not a “Business Day,” the related dividend will be paid not later than the next Business Day with the same force and effect as though paid on the Dividend Payment Date, without any increase to account for the period from such Dividend Payment Date through the date of actual payment. “Business Day” means a day other than (i) a Saturday or Sunday, (ii) a day on which New York City banks are closed, or (iii) a day on which the offices of the Company are closed.

If declared, the initial dividend will be for the period from but not including the date of the initial issuance of the Senior Preferred Stock through and including December 31, 2008. Except for the initial Dividend Payment Date, the “Dividend Period” relating to a Dividend Payment Date will be the period from but not including the preceding Dividend Payment Date

1


through and including the related Dividend Payment Date. For each Dividend Period from the date of initial issuance of the Senior Preferred Stock through and including December 31, 2012, the amount of dividends payable on the initial Dividend Payment Date or for any Dividend Period through and including December 31, 2012, that is not a full calendar quarter shall be computed on the basis of 30-day months, a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in any period of less than one month. For the avoidance of doubt, for each Dividend Period from the date of the initial issuance of the Senior Preferred Stock through and including December 31, 2012, in the event that the Liquidation Preference changes in the middle of a Dividend Period, the amount of dividends payable on the Dividend Payment Date at the end of such Dividend Period shall take into account such change in Liquidation Preference and shall be computed at the Dividend Rate on each Liquidation Preference based on the portion of the Dividend Period that each Liquidation Preference was in effect.

(b)     To the extent not paid pursuant to Section 2(a) above, dividends on the Senior Preferred Stock shall accrue and shall be added to the Liquidation Preference pursuant to Section 8, whether or not there are funds legally available for the payment of such dividends and whether or not dividends are declared.

(c)     For each Dividend Period from the date of the initial issuance of the Senior Preferred Stock through and including December 31, 2012, “Dividend Rate” means 10.0 percent; provided, however, that if at any time the Company shall have for any reason failed to pay dividends in cash in a timely manner as required by this Certificate, then immediately following such failure and for all Dividend Periods thereafter until the Dividend Period following the date on which the Company shall have paid in cash full cumulative dividends (including any unpaid dividends added to the Liquidation Preference pursuant to Section 8) the “Dividend Rate” shall mean 12.0 percent.

For each Dividend Period from January 1, 2013, and thereafter, the “Dividend Amount” for a Dividend Period means the amount, if any, by which the Net Worth Amount at the end of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter, less the Applicable Capital Reserve Amount for such Dividend Period, exceeds zero. In each case, “Net Worth Amount” means (i) the total assets of the Company (such assets excluding the Commitment and any unfunded amounts thereof) as reflected on the balance sheet of the Company as of the applicable date set forth in this Certificate, prepared in accordance with GAAP, less (ii) the total liabilities of the Company (such liabilities excluding any obligation in respect of any capital stock of the Company, including this Certificate), as reflected on the balance sheet of the Company as of the applicable date set forth in this Certificate, prepared in accordance with GAAP. “Applicable Capital Reserve Amount” means, as of any date of determination, (A) for each Dividend Period from January 1, 2013, through and including December 31, 2013, $3,000,000,000; (B) for each Dividend Period occurring within each 12-month period thereafter, through and including December 31, 2017, $3,000,000,000 reduced by $600,000,000 for each such 12-month period, so that for each Dividend Period from January 1, 2017, through and including December 31, 2017, the Applicable Capital Reserve Amount shall be $600,000,000; (C) for each Dividend Period from January 1, 2018, through and including June 30, 2019, $3,000,000,000; and (D) for each Dividend Period from July 1, 2019, and thereafter, $25,000,000,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for each Dividend Period from January 1, 2018, and thereafter, following any Dividend Payment Date with respect to which the Board of Directors does not declare and pay a dividend or declares and pays a dividend in an amount less than the Dividend Amount, the Applicable Capital Reserve Amount shall thereafter be zero. For the avoidance of doubt, if the calculation of the Dividend Amount for a Dividend Period does not exceed zero, then no Dividend Amount shall accrue or be payable for such Dividend Period.

(d)     Each such dividend shall be paid to the holders of record of outstanding shares of the Senior Preferred Stock as they appear in the books and records of the Company on such record date as shall be fixed in advance by the Board of Directors, not to be earlier than 45 days nor later than 10 days preceding the applicable Dividend Payment Date. The Company may not , at any time, declare or pay dividends on, make distributions with respect to, or redeem, purchase or acquire, or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any common stock or other securities ranking junior to the Senior Preferred Stock unless (i) full cumulative dividends on the outstanding Senior Preferred Stock in respect of the then-current Dividend Period and all past Dividend Periods (including any unpaid dividends added to the Liquidation Preference pursuant to Section 8) have been declared and paid in cash (including through any pay down of Liquidation Preference pursuant to Section 3) and (ii) all amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 4 (without giving effect to any prohibition on such payment under any applicable law) have been paid in cash.

(e)     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Certificate, the Board of Directors, in its discretion, may choose to pay dividends on the Senior Preferred Stock without the payment of any dividends on the common stock , preferred stock or any other class or series of stock from time to time outstanding ranking junior to the Senior Preferred Stock with respect to the payment of dividends.

(f)     If and whenever dividends, having been declared, shall not have been paid in full, as aforesaid, on shares of the Senior Preferred Stock, all such dividends that have been declared on shares of the Senior Preferred Stock shall be paid to the holders

2


pro rata based on the aggregate Liquidation Preference of the shares of Senior Preferred Stock held by each holder, and any amounts due but not paid in cash shall be added to the Liquidation Preference pursuant to Section 8.

3. Optional Pay Down of Liquidation Preference

(a)     Following termination of the Commitment (as defined in the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement referred to in Section 8 below), and subject to any limitations which may be imposed by law and the provisions below, the Company may pay down the Liquidation Preference of all outstanding shares of the Senior Preferred Stock pro rata, at any time, in whole or in part, out of funds legally available therefor, with such payment first being used to reduce any accrued and unpaid dividends previously added to the Liquidation Preference pursuant to Section 8 below and, to the extent all such accrued and unpaid dividends have been paid, next being used to reduce any Periodic Commitment Fees (as defined in the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement referred to in Section 8 below) previously added to the Liquidation Preference pursuant to Section 8 below. Prior to termination of the Commitment, and subject to any limitations which may be imposed by law and the provisions below, the Company may pay down the Liquidation Preference of all outstanding shares of the Senior Preferred Stock pro rata, at any time, out of funds legally available therefor, but only to the extent of (i) accrued and unpaid dividends previously added to the Liquidation Preference pursuant to Section 8 below and not repaid by any prior pay down of Liquidation Preference and (ii) Periodic Commitment Fees previously added to the Liquidation Preference pursuant to Section 8 below and not repaid by any prior pay down of Liquidation Preference. Any pay down of Liquidation Preference permitted by this Section 3 shall be paid by making a payment in cash to the holders of record of outstanding shares of the Senior Preferred Stock as they appear in the books and records of the Company on such record date as shall be fixed in advance by the Board of Directors, not to be earlier than 45 days nor later than 10 days preceding the date fixed for the payment.

(b)     In the event the Company shall pay down of the Liquidation Preference of the Senior Preferred Stock as aforesaid, notice of such pay down shall be given by the Company by first class mail, postage prepaid, mailed neither less than 10 nor more than 45 days preceding the date fixed for the payment, to each holder of record of the shares of the Senior Preferred Stock, at such holder’s address as the same appears in the books and records of the Company. Each such notice shall state the amount by which the Liquidation Preference of each share shall be reduced and the pay down date.

(c)     If after termination of the Commitment the Company pays down the Liquidation Preference of each outstanding share of Senior Preferred Stock in full, such shares shall be deemed to have been redeemed as of the date of such payment, and the dividend that would otherwise be payable for the Dividend Period ending on the pay down date will be paid on such date. Following such deemed redemption, the shares of the Senior Preferred Stock shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding, and all rights of the holders thereof as holders of the Senior Preferred Stock shall cease, with respect to shares so redeemed, other than the right to receive the pay down amount (which shall include the final dividend for such shares). Any shares of the Senior Preferred Stock which shall have been so redeemed, after such redemption, shall no longer have the status of authorized, issued or outstanding shares.

4. Mandatory Pay Down of Liquidation Preference Upon Issuance of Capital Stock

(a)     If the Company shall issue any shares of capital stock (including without limitation common stock or any series of preferred stock) in exchange for cash at any time while the Senior Preferred Stock is outstanding, then the Company shall, within 10 Business Days, use the proceeds of such issuance net of the direct costs relating to the issuance of such securities (including, without limitation , legal, accounting and investment banking fees) to pay down the Liquidation Preference of all outstanding shares of Senior Preferred Stock pro rata, out of funds legally available therefor, by making a payment in cash to the holders of record of outstanding shares of the Senior Preferred Stock as they appear in the books and records of the Company on such record date as shall be fixed in advance by the Board of Directors, not to be earlier than 45 days nor later than 10 days preceding the date fixed for the payment, with such payment first being used to reduce any accrued and unpaid dividends previously added to the Liquidation Preference pursuant to Section 8 below and , to the extent all such accrued and unpaid dividends have been paid, next being used to reduce any Periodic Commitment Fees (as defined in the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement referred to in Section 8 below) previously added to the Liquidation Preference pursuant to Section 8 below ; provided that, prior to the termination of the Commitment (as defined in the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement referred to in Section 8 below), the Liquidation Preference of each share of Senior Preferred Stock shall not be paid down below $1,000 per share.

(b)     If the Company shall not have sufficient assets legally available for the pay down of the Liquidation Preference of the shares of Senior Preferred Stock required under Section 4(a) , the Company shall pay down the Liquidation Preference per share to the extent permitted by law, and shall pay down any Liquidation Preference not so paid down because of the unavailability of legally available assets or other prohibition as soon as practicable to the extent it is thereafter able to make

such pay down legally. The inability of the Company to make such payment for any reason shall not relieve the Company from its obligation to effect any required pay down of the Liquidation Preference when, as and if permitted by law.

(c)     If after the termination of the Commitment the Company pays down the Liquidation Preference of each outstanding share of Senior Preferred Stock in full, such shares shall be deemed to have been redeemed as of the date of such payment, and the dividend that would otherwise be payable for the Dividend Period ending on the pay down date will be paid on such date. Following such deemed redemption, the shares of the Senior Preferred Stock shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding, and all rights of the holders thereof as holders of the Senior Preferred Stock shall cease, with respect to shares so redeemed, other than the right to receive the pay down amount (which shall include the final dividend for such redeemed shares). Any shares of the Senior Preferred Stock which shall have been so redeemed, after such redemption, shall no longer have the status of authorized, issued or outstanding shares.

5. No Voting Rights

Except as set forth in this Certificate or otherwise required by law, the shares of the Senior Preferred Stock shall not have any voting powers, either general or special.

6. No Conversion or Exchange Rights

The holders of shares of the Senior Preferred Stock shall not have any right to convert such shares into or exchange such shares for any other class or series of stock or obligations of the Company.

7. No Preemptive Rights

No holder of the Senior Preferred Stock shall as such holder have any preemptive right to purchase or subscribe for any other shares, rights, options or other securities of any class of the Company which at any time may be sold or offered for sale by the Company.

8. Liquidation Rights and Preference

(a)     Except as otherwise set forth herein, upon the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, the holders of the outstanding shares of the Senior Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to stockholders, before any payment or distribution shall be made on the common stock or any other class or series of stock of the Company ranking junior to the Senior Preferred Stock upon liquidation, the amount per share equal to the Liquidation Preference plus an amount, determined in accordance with Section 2(a) above, equal to the dividend otherwise payable for the then-current Dividend Period accrued through and including the date of payment in respect of such dissolution, liquidation or winding up ; provided, however, that if the assets of the Company available for distribution to stockholders shall be insufficient for the payment of the amount which the holders of the outstanding shares of the Senior Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive upon such dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company as aforesaid, then, all of the assets of the Company available for distribution to stockholders shall be distributed to the holders of outstanding shares of the Senior Preferred Stock pro rata based on the aggregate Liquidation Preference of the shares of Senior Preferred Stock held by each holder.

(b)     “Liquidation Preference” shall initially mean $1,000 per share and shall be:

(i) increased each time a Deficiency Amount (as defined in the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement) is paid to the Company by an amount per share equal to the aggregate amount so paid to the Company divided by the number of shares of Senior Preferred Stock outstanding at the time of such payment;

(ii) increased each time the Company does not pay the full Periodic Commitment Fee (as defined in the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement) in cash by an amount per share equal to the amount of the Periodic Commitment Fee that is not paid in cash divided by the number of shares of Senior Preferred Stock outstanding at the time such payment is due;

(iii) increased on the Dividend Payment Date if the Company fails to pay in full the dividend payable for the Dividend Period ending on such date by an amount per share equal to the aggregate amount of unpaid dividends divided by the number of shares of Senior Preferred Stock outstanding on such date; and


4


(iv) decreased each time the Company pays down the Liquidation Preference pursuant to Section 3 or Section 4 of this Certificate by an amount per share equal to the aggregate amount of the pay down divided by the number of shares of Senior Preferred Stock outstanding at the time of such pay down.

(c)     “Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement” means the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, dated September 7, 2008, between the Company and the United States Department of the Treasury.

(d)     Neither the sale of all or substantially all of the property or business of the Company, nor the merger, consolidation or combination of the Company into or with any other corporation or entity, shall be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up for the purpose of this Section 8.

9. Additional Classes or Series of Stock

The Board of Directors shall have the right at any time in the future to authorize, create and issue, by resolution or resolutions, one or more additional classes or series of stock of the Company, and to determine and fix the distinguishing characteristics and the relative rights, preferences, privileges and other terms of the shares thereof; provided that, any such class or series of stock may not rank prior to or on parity with the Senior Preferred Stock without the prior written consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of all the shares of Senior Preferred Stock at the time outstanding.

10. Miscellaneous

(a)     The Company and any agent of the Company may deem and treat the holder of a share or shares of Senior Preferred Stock, as shown in the Company’s books and records, as the absolute owner of such share or shares of Senior Preferred Stock for the purpose of receiving payment of dividends in respect of such share or shares of Senior Preferred Stock and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Company nor any agent of the Company shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All payments made to or upon the order of any such person shall be valid and, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge liabilities for moneys payable by the Company on or with respect to any such share or shares of Senior Preferred Stock.

(b)     The shares of the Senior Preferred Stock, when duly issued, shall be fully paid and non-assessable.

(c)     The Senior Preferred Stock may be issued, and shall be transferable on the books of the Company, only in whole shares.

(d)     For purposes of this Certificate, the term “the Company” means the Federal National Mortgage Association and any successor thereto by operation of law or by reason of a merger, consolidation, combination or similar transaction.

(e)     This Certificate and the respective rights and obligations of the Company and the holders of the Senior Preferred Stock with respect to such Senior Preferred Stock shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the United States, provided that the law of the State of Delaware shall serve as the federal rule of decision in all instances except where such law is inconsistent with the Company’s enabling legislation, its public purposes or any provision of this Certificate.

(f)     Any notice, demand or other communication which by any provision of this Certificate is required or permitted to be given or served to or upon the Company shall be given or served in writing addressed (unless and until another address shall be published by the Company) to Fannie Mae, 1100 15th St NW, Washington, DC 20005, Attn: Executive Vice President and General Counsel. Such notice, demand or other communication to or upon the Company shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given or made only upon actual receipt of a writing by the Company. Any notice, demand or other communication which by any provision of this Certificate is required or permitted to be given or served by the Company hereunder may be given or served by being deposited first class, postage prepaid, in the United States mail addressed (i) to the holder as such holder’s name and address may appear at such time in the books and records of the Company or (ii) if to a person or entity other than a holder of record of the Senior Preferred Stock, to such person or entity at such address as reasonably appears to the Company to be appropriate at such time. Such notice, demand or other communication shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given or made, for all purposes, upon mailing.

(g)     The Company, by or under the authority of the Board of Directors, may amend, alter, supplement or repeal any provision of this Certificate pursuant to the following terms and conditions:

(i) Without the consent of the holders of the Senior Preferred Stock, the Company may amend, alter, supplement or repeal any provision of this Certificate to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision herein which

5


may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision herein, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Certificate, provided that such action shall not adversely affect the interests of the holders of the Senior Preferred Stock.

(ii) The consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of all of the shares of the Senior Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, given in person or by proxy, either in writing or by a vote at a meeting called for the purpose at which the holders of shares of the Senior Preferred Stock shall vote together as a class, shall be necessary for authorizing, effecting or validating the amendment, alteration, supplementation or repeal (whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise) of the provisions of this Certificate other than as set forth in subparagraph (i) of this paragraph (g). The creation and issuance of any other class or series of stock, or the issuance of additional shares of any existing class or series of stock, of the Company ranking junior to the Senior Preferred Stock shall not be deemed to constitute such an amendment, alteration, supplementation or repeal.

(iii) Holders of the Senior Preferred Stock shall be entitled to one vote per share on matters on which their consent is required pursuant to subparagraph (ii) of this paragraph (g). In connection with any meeting of such holders, the Board of Directors shall fix a record date, neither earlier than 60 days nor later than 10 days prior to the date of such meeting, and holders of record of shares of the Senior Preferred Stock on such record date shall be entitled to notice of and to vote at any such meeting and any adjournment. The Board of Directors, or such person or persons as it may designate, may establish reasonable rules and procedures as to the solicitation of the consent of holders of the Senior Preferred Stock at any such meeting or otherwise, which rules and procedures shall conform to the requirements of any national securities exchange on which the Senior Preferred Stock may be listed at such time.

(h)     RECEIPT AND ACCEPTANCE OF A SHARE OR SHARES OF THE SENIOR PREFERRED STOCK BY OR ON BEHALF OF A HOLDER SHALL CONSTITUTE THE UNCONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE BY THE HOLDER (AND ALL OTHERS HAVING BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF SUCH SHARE OR SHARES) OF ALL OF THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS CERTIFICATE. NO SIGNATURE OR OTHER FURTHER MANIFESTATION OF ASSENT TO THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS CERTIFICATE SHALL BE NECESSARY FOR ITS OPERATION OR EFFECT AS BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE HOLDER (AND ALL SUCH OTHERS).
 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and the seal of the Company this 30th day of September, 2019.
