Detailed description Freddie Mac is a U.S. government-sponsored enterprise (GSE) that buys mortgages from lenders, packages them into securities, and sells them to investors, thus providing liquidity to the mortgage market.

Identified by ISIN US3128X32B86 and CUSIP 3128X32B8, this bond is a debt instrument issued in the United States by Freddie Mac (Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation), a critical U.S. government-sponsored enterprise (GSE) that plays a central role in the nation's housing finance system by purchasing mortgages from lenders and packaging them into mortgage-backed securities to enhance liquidity in the secondary mortgage market. Denominated in USD, the bond is currently trading at par, 100% of its face value. Notably, it carries a 0% interest rate, indicating it is a non-interest-bearing instrument. The total issuance size for this security stands at $100,000,000, with a minimum purchase increment of $1,000. It is set to mature on December 29, 2034, and while a payment frequency of twice per year is indicated, its 0% interest rate means there are no regular coupon distributions. Its robust credit quality is affirmed by top-tier ratings from leading agencies: AAA from Standard & Poor's and Aaa from Moody's, reflecting its exceptionally strong financial standing and minimal credit risk.

RISK FACTORS:


An investment in the Medium-Term Notes entails certain risks not associated with an investment in conventional fixed-rate
debt securities that pay interest periodically. While the Medium-Term Notes, if held to maturity or redemption, will provide return
of their principal, including return of the accreted value to the optional redemption date, their market value could be adversely
affected by changes in prevailing interest rates and the optional redemption feature. This effect on the market value could be
magnified in a rising interest rate environment in the case of the Medium-Term Notes due to their relatively long remaining term to
maturity. In such an environment, the market value of the Medium-Term Notes generally will fall, which could result in significant
losses to investors whose circumstances do not permit them to hold the Medium-Term Notes until maturity. It is also unlikely that
Freddie Mac would redeem the Medium-Term Notes in such an interest rate environment, when Freddie Mac's costs of borrowing
would be relatively high. On the other hand, in a falling interest rate environment, in which the market value of the Medium-Term
Notes generally would rise, it is likely that Freddie Mac would redeem the Medium-Term Notes, when its costs of borrowing would
be relatively low; under those circumstances, it is likely that the optional redemption provision would restrict the market value that
the Medium-Term Notes otherwise would have. Those factors, combined with the fact that payments on the Medium-Term Notes
will be made only at maturity or upon redemption, and not periodically, also could affect the secondary market for and the liquidity
of the Medium-Term Notes. Investors therefore should have the financial status and, either alone or with a financial advisor, the
knowledge and experience in financial and business matters sufficient to evaluate the merits and to bear the risks of investing in the
Medium-Term Notes in light of each investor's particular circumstances and should consider whether their circumstances permit
them to hold the Medium-Term Notes until maturity, or otherwise to bear the risks of illiquidity, redemption and changes in interest
rates. See "Risk Factors" in the Offering Circular.
