Notice. 

# SUMMARY:

# FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Richard Keyser, Office of Evaluation, Room 2232, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20410-8000, telephone (202) 755-7510, extension 7546. This is not a toll-free number. 

# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Pursuant to Sections 204(c) and 207(j) of the National Housing Act, 12 U.S.C. 1710(c) and section 1713(j), and in accordance with HUD's regulations at 24 CFR 203.409 and § 207.259(e)(3), the Assistant Secretary for Housing-Federal Housing Commissioner, with the approval of the Secretary of the Treasury, announces the call of all FHA debentures with a coupon rate of 6 percent or above, except for those debentures subject to “debenture lock agreements,” that have been registered on the books of the Bureau of Public Debt, Department of the Treasury, and are, therefore, “outstanding” as of September 30, 2004. The date of the call is January 1, 2005. 

The debentures will be redeemed at par plus accrued interest. Interest will cease to accrue on the debentures as of the call date. Final interest on any called debentures will be paid with the principal at redemption. 

                    During the period from the date of this Notice to the call date, debentures that are subject to the call may not be used by the mortgagee for a special redemption purchase in payment of a mortgage insurance premium.                           ( print page 57957)    

No transfer of debentures covered by the foregoing call will be made on the books maintained by the Treasury Department on or after December 1, 2004. This does not affect the right of the holder of a debenture to sell or assign the debenture on or after this date. Payment of final principal and interest due on January 1, 2005, will be made automatically to the registered holder. 

Dated: September 17, 2004. 

John C. Weicher, 

Assistant Secretary for Housing-Federal Housing Commissioner.
