McKinney, Shareholder, Haynsworth Sinkler Boyd, P.A., Greenville, SC, was re-elected to fill an independent directorship. Mr. Brown, Mr. Edwards, Mr. Sweiderk and Ms. McKinney, are referred to collectively as the “Directors-elect”. Each of the Directors-elect will begin serving a four-year term on January 1, 2027 ending on December 31, 2030. The committee assignments of the Directors-elect for 2027 are not yet determined. The Bank conducted the director elections in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Home Loan Bank Act (“Bank Act”) and the rules and regulations of the Finance Agency. Pursuant to the Bank Act and Finance Agency regulations, the Bank’s member directors serve as officers or directors of a member of the Bank. The Bank is a cooperative and conducts business primarily with its members, who are required to own capital stock in the Bank as a prerequisite to transacting certain business with the Bank. Subject to the Bank Act and Finance Agency regulations, the Bank also issues consolidated obligations through the Office of Finance, maintains a portfolio of short-term and long-term investments, enters into derivative transactions, and provides certain cash management and other services, in each case with members, housing associates, or other third parties at which directors may serve as officers or directors. All such transactions are made in the ordinary course of the Bank’s business and are subject to the same Bank policies as transactions with the Bank’s members, housing associates, and third parties generally. For further information, see “Item 13 - Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence” of the Bank’s 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Bank expects that all directors serving on the Board in 2027 will receive compensation under the Bank’s 2027 Directors’ Compensation Policy. It is also expected that they will be entitled to participate in the Bank’s Non-qualified Deferred Compensation Plan, under which each Bank director may defer all or a portion of the amount of their compensation. The form and amount of director compensation, including for the Directors-elect, is subject to approval by the Board and is subject to the Bank Act and Finance Agency regulations.
