DESCRIPTION OF THE TREASURY CONSTANT MATURITY SERIES

Yields on Treasury securities at "constant maturity" are interpolated by the U.S. Treasury from the daily yield curve. This curve,

which relates the yield on a security to its time to maturity, is based on the closing market bid yields on actively traded Treasury

securities in the over-the-counter market. These market yields are calculated from composites of quotations obtained by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The constant maturity yield values are read from the yield curve at fixed maturities, currently 3

and 6 months and 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 20, and 30 years. This method provides a yield for a 10-year maturity, for example, even if

no outstanding security has exactly 10 years remaining to maturity. In estimating the 20-year constant maturity, the Treasury

incorporates the prevailing market yield on an outstanding Treasury bond with approximately 20 years remaining to maturity.
