DIRECTOR COMPENSATION POLICY
I.           Purpose:
The purpose of this policy is to set forth the compensation paid to the Board of Directors.  The Travel and Public Relations Policy and Director’s Addendum to the Travel and Public Relations Policy set forth the circumstances under which the Bank will reimburse Directors for certain expenses incurred while on Bank business.
II.    Scope:
This policy applies to all Directors of the Bank.
III.    Policy Statement: 
A.    Board and Meeting Fees.
A fee of $7,000 per meeting shall be paid to all Directors that attend all or part of a meeting of the Board of Directors.  A fee of $7,750 per meeting shall be paid to the chair of all committees except for the chair of the Audit Committee which shall be $8,450 per meeting.  A fee of $8,450 per meeting shall be paid to the vice chair of the Board.  A fee of $9,900 per meeting shall be paid to the chair of the Board.  This fee shall also be provided to any person elected by the Board to serve as chairman pro tempore or to the vice chair if the vice chair presides for an entire meeting of the Board.  There are eight regularly scheduled meetings in 2013.
A fee of $2,000 per meeting shall be paid to all committee members, including ex officio members, who attend all or any part of any meeting of a committee of the Board.    
A fee of $1,325 per meeting shall be paid to any Director for participation in telephonic conference calls or when participating by telephone for all or any part of a meeting in which the Director would be entitled to receive a meeting fee for in-person attendance at such meeting.
Fees shall be paid per meeting.  For example, if a Board meeting and committee meeting occur on the same day, a separate fee shall be payable for attendance at each meeting.  Additionally, in the case of a multi-day meeting, a separate fee shall be payable for each day's attendance at the same meeting.
In the event that inclement weather prevents the occurrence of a planned meeting of the Board or one of its committees, the Directors shall be entitled to receive the applicable meeting fee called for in the Policy, minus any fees received if an in-person meeting is changed to a telephonic meeting.
