SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
224 of the National Housing Act (12
U.S.C. 1715o) provides that debentures
issued under the Act with respect to an
insured loan or mortgage (except for
debentures issued pursuant to section
221(g)(4) of the Act) will bear interest at
the rate in effect on the date the
commitment to insure the loan or
mortgage was issued, or the date the
loan or mortgage was endorsed (or
4427
initially endorsed if there are two or
more endorsements) for insurance,
whichever rate is higher. This provision
is implemented in HUD’s regulations at
24 CFR 203.405, 203.479, 207.259(e)(6),
and 220.830. These regulatory
provisions state that the applicable rates
of interest will be published twice each
year as a notice in the Federal Register.
Section 224 further provides that the
interest rate on these debentures will be
set from time to time by the Secretary
of HUD, with the approval of the
Secretary of the Treasury, in an amount
not in excess of the annual interest rate
determined by the Secretary of the
Treasury pursuant to a statutory formula
based on the average yield of all
outstanding marketable Treasury
obligations of maturities of 15 or more
years.
The Secretary of the Treasury (1) has
determined, in accordance with the
provisions of section 224, that the
statutory maximum interest rate for the
period beginning January 1, 2013, is
21⁄2 percent; and (2) has approved the
establishment of the debenture interest
rate by the Secretary of HUD at 21⁄2
percent for the 6-month period
beginning January 1, 2013. This interest
rate will be the rate borne by debentures
issued with respect to any insured loan
or mortgage (except for debentures
issued pursuant to section 221(g)(4))
with insurance commitment or
endorsement date (as applicable) within
the first 6 months of 2013.

Section 215 of Division G, Title II of
Public Law 108–199, enacted January
23, 2004 (HUD’s 2004 Appropriations
Act) amended section 224 of the Act, to
change the debenture interest rate for
purposes of calculating certain
insurance claim payments made in cash.
Therefore, for all claims paid in cash on
mortgages insured under section 203 or
234 of the National Housing Act and
endorsed for insurance after January 23,
2004, the debenture interest rate will be
the monthly average yield, for the
month in which the default on the
mortgage occurred, on United States
Treasury Securities adjusted to a
constant maturity of 10 years, as found
in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H–
15. The Federal Housing Administration
has codified this provision in HUD
regulations at 24 CFR 203.405(b) and 24
CFR 203.479(b).
Section 221(g)(4) of the Act provides
that debentures issued pursuant to that
paragraph (with respect to the
assignment of an insured mortgage to
the Secretary) will bear interest at the

‘‘going Federal rate’’ in effect at the time
the debentures are issued. The term
‘‘going Federal rate’’ is defined to mean
the interest rate that the Secretary of the
Treasury determines, pursuant to a
statutory formula based on the average
yield on all outstanding marketable
Treasury obligations of 8- to 12-year
maturities, for the 6-month periods of
January through June and July through
December of each year. Section 221(g)(4)
is implemented in the HUD regulations
at 24 CFR 221.255 and 24 CFR 221.790.
The Secretary of the Treasury has
determined that the interest rate to be
borne by debentures issued pursuant to
section 221(g)(4) during the 6-month
period beginning January 1, 2013, is
13⁄8 percent.
The subject matter of this notice falls
within the categorical exemption from
HUD’s environmental clearance
procedures set forth in 24 CFR
50.19(c)(6). For that reason, no
environmental finding has been
prepared for this notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice announces changes in the interest rates to be paid
on debentures issued with respect to a loan or mortgage insured by the
Federal Housing Administration under the provisions of the National
Housing Act (the Act). The interest rate for debentures issued under
section 221(g)(4) of the Act during the 6-month period beginning
January 1, 2013, is 1\3/8\ percent. The interest rate for debentures
issued under any other provision of the Act is the rate in effect on
the date that the commitment to insure the loan or mortgage was issued,
or the date that the loan or mortgage was endorsed (or initially
endorsed if there are two or more endorsements) for insurance,
whichever rate is higher. The interest rate for debentures issued under
these other provisions with respect to a loan or mortgage committed or
endorsed during the 6-month period beginning January 1, 2013, is 2\1/2\
percent. However, as a result of an amendment to section 224 of the
Act, if an insurance claim relating to a mortgage insured under
sections 203 or 234 of the Act and endorsed for insurance after January
23, 2004, is paid in cash, the debenture interest rate for purposes of
calculating a claim shall be the monthly average yield, for the month
in which the default on the mortgage occurred, on United States
Treasury Securities adjusted to a constant maturity of 10 years.

at (800) 877-8339.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 224 of the National Housing Act (12
U.S.C. 1715o) provides that debentures issued under the Act with
respect to an insured loan or mortgage (except for debentures issued
pursuant to section 221(g)(4) of the Act) will bear interest at the
rate in effect on the date the commitment to insure the loan or
mortgage was issued, or the date the loan or mortgage was endorsed (or
initially endorsed if there are two or more endorsements) for
insurance, whichever rate is higher. This provision is implemented in
HUD's regulations at 24 CFR 203.405, 203.479, 207.259(e)(6), and
220.830. These regulatory provisions state that the applicable rates of
interest will be published twice each year as a notice in the Federal
Register.
Section 224 further provides that the interest rate on these
debentures will be set from time to time by the Secretary of HUD, with
the approval of the Secretary of the Treasury, in an amount not in
excess of the annual interest rate determined by the Secretary of the
Treasury pursuant to a statutory formula based on the average yield of
all outstanding marketable Treasury obligations of maturities of 15 or
more years.
The Secretary of the Treasury (1) has determined, in accordance
with the provisions of section 224, that the statutory maximum interest
rate for the period beginning January 1, 2013, is 2\1/2\ percent; and
(2) has approved the establishment of the debenture interest rate by
the Secretary of HUD at 2\1/2\ percent for the 6-month period beginning
January 1, 2013. This interest rate will be the rate borne by
debentures issued with respect to any insured loan or mortgage (except
for debentures issued pursuant to section 221(g)(4)) with insurance
commitment or endorsement date (as applicable) within the first 6
months of 2013.

Section 215 of Division G, Title II of Public Law 108-199, enacted
January 23, 2004 (HUD's 2004 Appropriations Act) amended section 224 of
the Act, to change the debenture interest rate for purposes of
calculating certain insurance claim payments made in cash. Therefore,
for all claims paid in cash on mortgages insured under section 203 or
234 of the National Housing Act and endorsed for insurance after
January 23, 2004, the debenture interest rate will be the monthly
average yield, for the month in which the default on the mortgage
occurred, on United States Treasury Securities adjusted to a constant
maturity of 10 years, as found in Federal Reserve Statistical Release
H-15. The Federal Housing Administration has codified this provision in
HUD regulations at 24 CFR 203.405(b) and 24 CFR 203.479(b).
Section 221(g)(4) of the Act provides that debentures issued
pursuant to that paragraph (with respect to the assignment of an
insured mortgage to the Secretary) will bear interest at the ``going
Federal rate'' in effect at the time the debentures are issued. The
term ``going Federal rate'' is defined to mean the interest rate that
the Secretary of the Treasury determines, pursuant to a statutory
formula based on the average yield on all outstanding marketable
Treasury obligations of 8- to 12-year maturities, for the 6-month
periods of January through June and July through December of each year.
Section 221(g)(4) is implemented in the HUD regulations at 24 CFR
221.255 and 24 CFR 221.790.
The Secretary of the Treasury has determined that the interest rate
to be borne by debentures issued pursuant to section 221(g)(4) during
the 6-month period beginning January 1, 2013, is 1\3/8\ percent.
The subject matter of this notice falls within the categorical
exemption from HUD's environmental clearance procedures set forth in 24
CFR 50.19(c)(6). For that reason, no environmental finding has been
prepared for this notice.
Authority: Sections 211, 221, 224, National Housing Act, 12
U.S.C. 1715b, 1715l, 1715o; Section 7(d), Department of HUD Act, 42
U.S.C. 3535(d).)
Dated: January 8, 2013.
Carol J. Galante,
Assistant Secretary for Housing--Federal Housing Commissioner.
