The New York Times is reporting that Fannie Mae CEO Dan Mudd will get $9.3 million of severance for leaving his company, while Freddie Mac CEO Richard Syron will get $14.1 million.

The packages are miniscule compared to what’s become normal departure deals for mega-company CEOs, but now taxpayers will help foot the bill for dismissing the departing Fannie and Freddie CEOs.
