Freddie Mac Will Close the Gold PC / Giant PC Exchange Offer on December 18, 2026

BY GlobeNewswire | AGENCY | 11:11 AM EST

MCLEAN, Va., Dec. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Freddie Mac today announced that its offer to investors to exchange certain eligible Gold PCs and Giant PCs for TBA-eligible and non-TBA-eligible mirror securities will close on December 18, 2026.

Freddie Mac announced the opening of the exchange offer on May 7, 2019. Investors can refer to the Exchange Offer Circular (available at Legal Documentation - Capital Markets) for the terms and conditions pertaining to the exchange offer. Additional information on the exchange offer is available on Freddie Mac?s website at Gold PC? Exchange - Capital Markets.

Under the exchange offer, investors can choose between two exchange paths: one facilitated by a dealer using Freddie Mac?s Dealer Direct? portal and one that is Direct-to-Freddie Mac via Tradeweb. For more information, see the ?Exchange Process? section of Freddie Mac?s Gold PC? Exchange - Capital Markets website.

Since the exchange offer opened in 2019, Freddie Mac has supported the exchange of 45-day TBA-eligible Gold PCs as well as 45-day non-TBA eligible pools. In both instances, pools are exchanged for the respective 55-day TBA-eligible UMBS or 55-day non-TBA eligible MBS.

Investors who participate in the exchange offer also receive ?float compensation,? a one-time payment, which is primarily intended to compensate holders for the difference in payment delay between 45-day and 55-day securities.

Freddie Mac will provide periodic reminders and operational details on the exchange retirement throughout 2026.

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.
