SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The National Housing Act (12 U.S.C. 1701-1749aaa-5) (the Act) 
authorizes and governs the Department's mortgage insurance program. 
Section 221 of the Act permits certain HUD-insured mortgagees to assign 
the original credit instrument and the mortgage securing the credit 
instrument to the Secretary of HUD. Section 221(g)(4)(A) sets forth the 
two requirements for mortgage assignment. The commitment to insure must 
have been entered into prior to November 30, 1983. Secondly, the 
mortgage must not be ``in default at the expiration of twenty years 
from the date the mortgage was endorsed for insurance.''
    Section 221(g)(4)(C), which was added by section 336 of the 
National Affordable Housing Act of 1990 (Pub. L. 101-625, approved 
November 28, 1990), authorizes the Secretary to conduct a multifamily 
project mortgage auction in lieu of accepting the mortgage assignments. 
Section 221(g)(4)(C)(ii)(IV) of the Act states that the Secretary 
``[s]hall accept the lowest interest rate bid for purchase that the 
Secretary deems acceptable.'' Section 221(g)(4)(C)(ii)(IV) also 
mandates that ``[t]he Secretary shall cause the accepted bid to be 
published in the Federal Register.''
    On October 20, 1994, the Department conducted the fourth 
multifamily project mortgage auction. All 111 projects mortgages in the 
auction were sold to one bidder. In accordance with section 
221(g)(4)(C)(ii)(IV) of the Act, the Department is publishing details 
concerning the accepted bid, as follows:

Winning Bidder: CS First Boston Mortgage Capital Corporation
Winning Bid: 78.98 basis points

    Dated: November 28, 1994.
