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 of 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 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Bank expects that all directors serving on the Board in 2026 will receive compensation under the Bank's 2026 Directors' Compensation Policy. It is also expected 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 his or her 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.
