Ms. Alexander initially joined the Board of Directors in 2004, and was most recently re-elected on March 25, 2009 by written consent of the Conservator, for a term that will end (i) on the date of the next annual meeting of stockholders of Freddie Mac, or (ii) on the date the Conservator next executes a written consent for the purpose of electing directors, whichever occurs first. Freddie Mac currently anticipates that the Conservator will next execute such a consent in March 2010.
