Note: On November 25, 2008, the Federal Reserve announced the creation of the Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility (TALF)
under the authority of section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act. The TALF is a facility under which the Federal Reserve Bank of New
York (FRBNY) extends loans with a term of up to five years to holders of eligible asset-backed securities. The TALF is intended to
assist financial markets in accommodating the credit needs of consumers and businesses by facilitating the issuance of asset-backed
securities collateralized by a variety of consumer and business loans. The loans provided through the TALF to eligible borrowers are
non-recourse, meaning that the obligation of the borrower can be discharged by surrendering the collateral to the FRBNY. The loans
are extended for the market value of the security less an amount known as a haircut. As a result, the borrower bears the initial
risk of a decline in the value of the security.

TALF LLC is a limited liability company formed to purchase and manage any asset-backed securities received by the FRBNY in
connection with the decision of a borrower not to repay a TALF loan. TALF LLC has committed, for a fee, to purchase all asset-backed
securities received by the FRBNY in conjunction with a TALF loan at a price equal to the TALF loan plus accrued but unpaid interest.
Losses on asset-backed securities held by TALF LLC will be offset in the following order: by the commitment fees collected by TALF
LLC, by the interest received on investments of TALF LLC, by up to $4.3 billion in subordinated debt funding provided by the U.S.
Treasury, and finally, by senior debt funding provided by the FRBNY. Payments by TALF LLC from the proceeds of its net portfolio
holdings will be made in the following order: operating expenses of TALF LLC, principal due to the FRBNY, principal due to the U.S.
Treasury, interest due to the FRBNY, and interest due to the U.S. Treasury. Any remaining funds will be shared by the FRBNY and the
U.S. Treasury.

Note on consolidation:

The Federal Reserve Bank of New York (FRBNY) has extended loans to several limited liability companies under the authority of section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act. On June 26, 2008, a loan was
extended to Maiden Lane LLC, which was formed to acquire certain assets of Bear Stearns. On November 25, 2008, a loan was extended to Maiden Lane III LLC, which was formed to purchase multi-sector
collateralized debt obligations on which the Financial Products group of the American International Group, Inc. has written credit default swap contracts. On December 12, 2008, a loan was extended to
Maiden Lane II LLC, which was formed to purchase residential mortgage-backed securities from the U.S. securities lending reinvestment portfolio of subsidiaries of American International Group, Inc.
On November 25, 2008, the Federal Reserve Board authorized the FRBNY to extend credit to TALF LLC, which was formed to purchase and manage any asset-backed securities received by the FRBNY in
connection with the decision of a borrower not to repay a loan extended under the Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility.

The FRBNY is the primary beneficiary of TALF LLC, because of the two beneficiaries of the LLC, the FRBNY and the U.S. Treasury, the FRBNY is primarily responsible for directing the financial
activities of TALF LLC. The FRBNY is the primary beneficiary of the other LLCs cited above because it will receive a majority of any residual returns of the LLCs and absorb a majority of any residual
losses of the LLCs. Consistent with generally accepted accounting principles, the assets and liabilities of these LLCs have been consolidated with the assets and liabilities of the FRBNY in the
preparation of the statements of condition shown on this release. As a consequence of the consolidation, the extensions of credit from the FRBNY to the LLCs are eliminated, the net assets of the LLCs
appear as assets on the previous page (and in table 1 and table 8), and the liabilities of the LLCs to entities other than the FRBNY, including those with recourse only to the portfolio holdings of
the LLCs, are included in other liabilities in this table (and table 1 and table 8).
