EX 10.1 2015 President's Incentive Plan






Exhibit 10.1




FHLBank San Francisco
2015 PRESIDENT’S INCENTIVE PLAN




PLAN PURPOSE
To optimize individual and Bank performance in accomplishing Board-approved goals and objectives.


PLAN OBJECTIVES
To motivate the Bank President to exceed individual and Bank goals that support the Bank’s mission and strategic plan.  To attract and retain an outstanding executive by providing a competitive total compensation program, including an annual incentive award opportunity.


ELIGIBILITY
The 2015 participant is the Bank President.


The Bank President must be employed by the Bank through January 1, 2016 to be eligible for an incentive award under the 2015 plan.  A Bank President hired, promoted, or who takes a leave of absence during the plan year is eligible to participate on a pro-rata basis.  A Bank President hired or promoted on or after October 1st may be eligible to participate during the current plan year at the discretion of the Board.      


INCENTIVE GOALS AND MEASURES


Incentive Goals
For the Bank President there are individual and Bank goals, which are weighted.  The individual goal(s) support the Bank-wide goals (See 2015 Short-Term Incentive Plan Goals and Measures) and objectives.  


The three Bank goals for 2015 are:


		
	1.
	2015 Risk Management Goal:  Continue to enhance and advance the function and approaches to the Bank’s risk management.




		
	2.
	2015 Franchise Enhancement Goal: Position the Bank and the FHLBank System to remain an integral component of the changing housing and financial services markets.  Continue to meet the Bank's mission objectives within these markets as they are currently structured, but also influence and adapt to structural changes in those markets.




		
	3.
	2015 Community Investment Goal:  Support and promote the Bank’s Affordable Housing Program and Community Investment Programs.      




Incentive Goal Achievement Measures
The plan levels of goal achievement are as follows:


	
		
	Achievement Level
	Measure Definition

	Far Exceeds
	The most optimistic achievement level that far exceeds expected performance.

	Exceeds
	An optimistic achievement level that exceeds expected performance.

	Meets
	Performance that is expected under the Bank's Plan.

	Threshold
	Minimum level of performance that must be achieved for awards to be paid.






Actual achievement of Bank goals is subject to adjustment for changes resulting from changes in financial strategies or policies, any significant change in Bank membership, as well as other factors determined by the Board.  Impacts of OTTI credit charges are excluded from the achievement levels and measurement of performance for the Adjusted Return on Capital Spread component of the Franchise Enhancement Goal. Impacts of dividend benchmark variances to plan are also excluded from the measurement of Adjusted Return on Capital Spread performance.  

January 2015






AWARD DETERMINATION AND OPPORTUNITY
Any award will be based on success in achieving the individual and Bank goals, and on the overall performance. At yearend, accomplishments will be assessed and a percentage of achievement will be determined for each goal and any award determination shall be approved by the Board.


	
			
	Percentage of Goal Achievement Scale
	Aggregate Goal Achievement
	Award Range (Percentage of 2015 Base Salary)

	0% - 150%
	150% = Far Exceeds
	50%

	 
	125% = Exceeds
	48%

	 
	100% = Meets
	40%

	 
	75% = Threshold
	20%






For each goal, the percentage of achievement will be multiplied by the applicable weights.  Each weighted achievement will then be added to determine the total weighted achievement.  The basis for any award opportunity for the participant is total weighted achievement.  Total weighted achievement from Threshold achievement level (75-99%) is below the Meets achievement level and, therefore, results in an award less than one granted for achieving the Meets achievement level.  Total weighted achievement below the Threshold achievement level normally will not result in an incentive award.  The Board of Directors has full discretion to modify any and all goals, achievement levels, and incentive payments to account for matters not specifically addressed in the plan, subject to review by the Federal Housing Finance Agency, as required.  Incentive compensation reductions may be made, but are not limited to the following circumstances: (i) if errors or omissions result in material revisions to the Bank’s financial results, information submitted to a regulatory or a reporting agency, or information used to determine incentive compensation payouts; (ii) if information submitted to a regulatory or a reporting agency is untimely; or, (iii) if the Bank does not make appropriate progress in the timely remediation of examination, monitoring, or other supervisory findings and matters requiring attention.


APPROVAL OF INCENTIVE AWARDS
The amount of the incentive award, if any, under this plan shall be approved by the Board of Directors, including any award for achievement below Threshold.  Awards will be considered by the Board of Directors at the January 2016 Board meeting, or as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable.


TIMING OF PAYMENT OF FINAL INCENTIVE AWARDS
Payment of the incentive award, if any, will be paid in the taxable year immediately following the end of the performance period and no later than 60 days after the date that the Board of Directors’ approval of such award becomes effective.


PLAN ADMINISTRATION AND IMPLEMENTATION
The Board of Directors oversees the administration and interpretation of the plan.


The plan is intended to be exempt from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the provisions of the plan shall be construed and interpreted consistent with such intent.
