Notes on consolidation:
On June 26, 2008, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (FRBNY) extended a loan under the authority of section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act to Maiden Lane LLC, a limited liability company 
formed to acquire certain assets of Bear Stearns.  The FRBNY is the primary beneficiary of Maiden Lane LLC.  Consistent with generally accepted accounting principles, the assets and 
liabilities of Maiden Lane LLC have been consolidated with the assets and liabilities of the FRBNY in the preparation of the statements of condition shown on this release.  As a consequence 
of the consolidation, the extension of credit from the FRBNY to Maiden Lane LLC is eliminated, the net assets of Maiden Lane LLC appear as an asset in this table (and table 1 and table 5), 
and the liabilities of Maiden Lane LLC to entities other than the FRBNY, including those with recourse only to the portfolio holdings of Maiden Lane LLC, are included in other liabilities on 
the next page (and in table 1 and table 5). 

On October 27, 2008, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (FRBNY) began extending loans under the authority of section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act to Commercial Paper Funding 
Facility LLC (CPFF LLC).  This LLC is a limited liability company that was formed to purchase three-month U.S. dollar-denominated commercial paper from eligible issuers.  The FRBNY is 
the sole beneficiary of CPFF LLC.  Consistent with generally accepted accounting principles, the assets and liabilities of CPFF LLC have been consolidated with the assets and liabilities 
of the FRBNY in the preparation of the statements of condition shown on this release.  As a consequence of the consolidation, the extension of credit from the FRBNY to CPFF LLC is 
eliminated, the net assets of CPFF LLC appear as an asset in this table (and table 1 and table 5), and the liabilities of CPFF LLC to entities other than the FRBNY are included in other 
liabilities on the next page (and table 1 and table 5).
