[Regulation Z; Docket No. R-0858]

Truth in Lending; Mortgage
Disclosures; Correction
AGENCY: Board of Governors of the

Federal Reserve System.
ACTION: Technical Correction to final

regulation.
SUMMARY: This docum ent contains a

correction to the final rule (Docket No.
R -0 8 5 8 ) which was published Friday,
March 2 4 ,1 9 9 5 (60 FR 15463). The
amendments to Regulation Z concerned
new disclosure requirements on reverse
mortgage transactions (as well as on
certain home loans bearing rates or fees
above a certain percentage or amount).
EFFECTIVE DATE: September 2 5 ,1 9 9 5 .

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background
The regulation that is the subject of
this correction is Regulation Z (12 CFR
part 226), which implements the Truth
in Lending A ct (15 U.S.C. 1601 -16 6 6)).
The act (TILA) requires creditors to
disclose credit terms for consumer
transactions. The Home Ownership and
Equity Protection A ct of 1994 (HOEPA),
contained in the Riegle Community
Development and Regulatory
Improvement A ct of 1994 (Pub. L. 1 0 3 3 2 5 ,1 0 8 Stat. 2160) amended the TILA.
Section 154 of the HOEPA added a new
section 1 3 8 to the TILA dealing with
disclosures required for reverse
mortgage transactions. The final rule
implementing these provisions in
Regulation Z was published on March
24, 1995 (60 FR 15463).

Sheilah Goodman or Kurt Schumacher,

and Community Affairs, Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve
System, at (202) 4 5 2 -3 6 6 7 or 4 5 2 -2 4 1 2 ;

As published, the final rule
implementing new TILA section 138
contains an error in the unit period used
in the first example of the total annual
loan cost rate computation in appendix
K to part 226, which also results in an
erroneous total annual loan cost rate
being shown for that example. The error

i = .1317069438
Total annual loan cost rate
(100(. 13170694 3 8 X 1)) = 1 3 . 1 7 %

Secretary o f the Board.
[FR Doc. 9 5-24240 Filed 9 -2 8 -9 5 ; 8:45 am]
BILLING CODE 6210-01-P

resulted from the use of a monthly unit
period in the transaction, whereas,
under the definition of a unit period for
single-advance single-payment
transactions (paragraph (b)(4)(ii) of
appendix K), the proper unit period is
1 year. This error has been corrected.
For consistency and ease of
understanding, the Bain figure has also
been revised to reflect the use of an
annual unit period.

Correction of Publication
Accordingly, the publication on
March 24, 1995, of the final regulation
(Docket No. R -0 8 5 8 ), which was the
subject of FR Doc. 9 5 -7 2 3 1 , is corrected
as follows;
A p p en d ix K to Part 2 2 6 — [Corrected]
On page 1 5475, in the example in
paragraph (c)(1) of appendix K to Part
226, the formula (which follows the
phrase “Assumed annual dwelling
appreciation rate: 4 % ”) is corrected to
read as follows;
