the Assistant Secretary for Housing--Federal Housing Commissioner, with 
the approval of the Secretary of HUD and the Secretary of the Treasury,

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, 2006. The date of the call is 
January 1, 2007.
    The debentures will be redeemed at par value plus accrued interest. 
Interest will cease to accrue on the debentures as of the call date. At 
redemption, final interest on any called debentures will be paid along 
with the principal. Payment of final principal and interest due on 
January 1, 2007, will be made automatically to the registered holder.
    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.
    No transfer of debentures covered by the foregoing call will be 
made on the books maintained by the Department of the Treasury on or 
after December 15, 2006. This debenture call does not affect the right 
of the holder of a debenture to sell or assign the debenture on or 
after this date.

    Dated: September 16, 2006.
Brian D. Montgomery,
Assistant Secretary for Housing--Federal Housing Commissioner.
