Note on consolidation:

The Federal Reserve Bank of New York (FRBNY) has extended loans to several limited liability companies under the authority of section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act. On June 26, 2008, 
a loan was extended to Maiden Lane LLC, which was formed to acquire certain assets of Bear Stearns.  On October 27, 2008, the FRBNY began extending loans to Commercial Paper Funding 
Facility LLC, which was formed to purchase three-month U.S. dollar-denominated commercial paper from eligible issuers. On November 24, 2008, the Federal Reserve Board authorized the FRBNY 
to extend credit to a series of LLCs funded through the Money Market Investor Funding Facility, which were established to purchase short-term U.S. dollar-denominated certificates of 
deposit, bank notes, and commercial paper from eligible issuers. On November 25, 2008, a loan was extended to Maiden Lane III LLC, which was formed to purchase multi-sector collateralized 
debt obligations on which the Financial Products group of the American International Group, Inc. has written credit default swap contracts.

The FRBNY is the sole beneficiary of Commercial Paper Funding Facility LLC and the primary beneficiary of the other LLCs cited above. Consistent with generally accepted accounting principles, 
the assets and liabilities of these LLCs 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 extensions of credit from the FRBNY to the LLCs are eliminated, the net assets of the LLCs appear as assets on the previous page (and in table 1 and 
table 7), and the liabilities of the LLCs to entities other than the FRBNY, including those with recourse only to the portfolio holdings of the LLCs, are included in other liabilities in 
this table (and table 1 and table 7).
