MCLEAN, VA--(Marketwired - Apr 7, 2014) -  Freddie Mac (OTCQB: FMCC) today announced a new offering of Structured Pass-Through Certificates ("K Certificates"), backed exclusively by LIBOR-based, floating rate multifamily mortgages with five- and seven-year terms. The company expects to offer approximately $1.3 billion in K Certificates ("K-F03 Certificates"), which are expected to price the week of April 7, 2014, and settle on or about April 25, 2014. This is Freddie Mac's fourth K Certificate offering this year and its first floating rate offering this year.

The K-F03 Certificates are backed by 85 recently originated floating rate multifamily mortgages and are guaranteed by Freddie Mac. The K-F03 Certificates will be offered to the market by a syndicate of dealers led by J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC as co-lead managers and joint bookrunners.

The K-F03 Certificates include one senior principal and interest class and one interest only class, and will not be rated. The K-F03 Certificates are backed by corresponding classes from the FREMF 2014-KF03 Mortgage Trust ("K-F03 Trust"). The K-F03 Trust will also issue class B, C and R certificates, which will be subordinate to the classes backing the K-F03 Certificates and will not be guaranteed by Freddie Mac.
