bylaws, all as in effect at the time the Advance or other transaction is entered into (or, if at that time FHLBank does not have a Capital Plan, any other plans or policies of FHLBank governing Capital Stock and capital structure). The Institution
authorizes FHLBank to effect such purchase by exchange shares of classes of Capital Stock held by the Institution and/or debiting the Institution’s accounts at FHLBank in accordance with such Capital Plan, Member Products Policy, and any
applicable laws, Regulations, resolutions of FHLBank’s board of directors and provisions of FHLBank’s Organization Certificate or bylaws, as amended. 

 SECURITY AGREEMENT 
  

	3.1	Specific Pledge; Required Collateral Amount. 

  

	 	a.	As security for all present and future Indebtedness, the Institution hereby assigns, transfers and pledges to FHLBank, and grants to FHLBank a security interest in, the
following (1) Capital Stock; (2) all accounts and deposit accounts of the Institution held by FHLBank; (3) all property specified and described by the Institution from time to time on schedules or forms prescribed by FHLBank;
(4) all property delivered from time to time by the Institution to FHLBank or FHLBank’s custodian; and (5) the proceeds of any of the foregoing. 

 

	 	b.	The Institution shall at all times have granted FHLBank a security interest in an amount of Eligible Collateral that has a Lending Value at least equal to the Required
Collateral amount applicable to the Institution. 

  

	 	c.	While the Institution may, except as provided below, retain the documents evidencing any Collateral it has pledged to FHLBank, it is specifically understood and agreed
that the Institution holds such documents solely for the benefit, and subject to the direction and control, of FHLBank. 

  

	 	d.	The Institution shall not assign, pledge. transfer, create any security interest in, sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral without the prior written consent of
FHLBank. 

  

	 	e.	FHLBank may take such steps as it reasonably deems necessary to protect its security interest in Collateral including, without limitation, filing financing statements,
requiring delivery, and requiring the pledging and/or protection of additional collateral whether or not such additional collateral is Eligible Collateral. 

 

	3.2	Perfection of Security Interest. 

  

	 	a.	Immediately upon FHLBank’s request, and from time to time thereafter, the Institution shall take all actions as FHLBank shall reasonably deem necessary or to

advances incurred or made by FHLBank in connection therewith (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of any bailee that may be appointed by FHLBank hereunder, and the agents and legal counsel of FHLBank and of such

	 	d.	The form and sufficiency of all documents pertaining to the Collateral shall be satisfactory to FHLBank. Any Collateral that is not satisfactory to FHLBank may be
rejected by FHLBank or may have a Lending Value ascribed thereto that shall be less than the value normally ascribed thereto under FHLBank’s Member Products Policy, or as FHLBank may otherwise specify. 

  
 Page 3 of 10

promptly release to the Institution, at the Institution’s expense, the Collateral specified in said written request. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, while an Event of Default hereunder shall have occurred and be continuing, or
at any time that FHLBank’s records indicate that such release would reduce the Lending Value of the Institution’s Collateral below the Required Collateral Amount, or at any time that the FHLBank reasonably and in good faith deems itself
insecure, FHLBank may refuse such request. 

  

	3.4	Institution’s Representations and Warranties Concerning Collateral. The Institution represents and warrants to FHLBank, as of the date hereof
and as of each date on which there shall he any outstanding Indebtedness or Commitment, as follows:

and the Regulations. 

  

	 	c.	The Institution has not conveyed or otherwise created, and there does not otherwise exist. any participation interest (except as permitted by the Member Products

communicated in writing to FHLBank. 

  

	3.5	Reports, Audits and Access. 

  

	 	a.	The Institution shall provide FHLBank with written periodic reports containing such information on the Collateral as FHLBank shall require from time to time, including
listings of mortgages and securities, unpaid principal balances thereof and certifications concerning the status of payments of mortgages and of taxes and insurance on property securing mortgages. The Institution shall give FHLBank access at all
reasonable times to Collateral in the possession of the Institution and to the books and records of account of the Institution relating to the Collateral for the purpose of permitting FHLBank to examine, verify or reconcile the Collateral and the
reports of the Institution to FHLBank thereon. 

  

	 	b.	All Collateral and the satisfaction by the Institution of the Required Collateral Amount shall be subject to periodic audit and verification by or on behalf of FHLBank.
Such audits and certifications may occur without notice during the Institution’s normal business hours or upon reasonable notice at such other times as FHLBank may reasonably request. The Institution shall provide access to, and shall make
adequate working facilities available to, the representatives or agents of FHLBank for purposes of such audits and verifications. The Institution agrees to pay to FHLBank such reasonable fees and as may be assessed by FHLBank to cover overhead and
other costs relating to such audits and verifications. 

  

	 	c.	The Institution shall furnish to FHLBank annually, if FHLBank requests, an audit report prepared by an external independent auditor of the Institution in such form as

exams in regard to the Institution. 

  

	 	d.	In order for FHLBank to adequately assess and monitor the financial and business condition of the Institution, the Institution authorizes FHLBank to obtain all

other documents obtained under this Section 3.5. 

  

	 	e.	If the Lending Value of the Eligible Collateral pledged by the Institution shall at any time fall below the Required Collateral Amount, the Institution shall
immediately notify FHLBank. 

  

	3.6	 Bank’s Responsibility as to Collateral. In the event that FHLBank shall take possession of any Collateral hereunder,
FHLBank’s duty as to such Collateral shall be solely to use reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession. This duty shall not require FHLBank to take any steps necessary to preserve rights against prior
parties or the duty 

  
 Page 4 of 10

	 	
to send notices, perform services or take any action in connection with the management of the Collateral. The Institutions shall make and maintain copies, microfilm or other recordings of all
Collateral delivered to FHLBank. 

  

	3.7	Application of Payments. FHLBank may, in its sole discretion, apply any payments by or recovery from the Institution, which are received by FHLBank

	4.1	Events of Default; Acceleration. Upon the occurrence of and during the continuation of any of the following events or conditions of default (Event
of Default), FHLBank may at its option and notwithstanding any other provision hereof, by a notice to the Institution, declare all Indebtedness, including but not limited to any accrued interest and any prepayment that are provided for upon payment
of an Advance before the date(s) scheduled for repayment, to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any further notice: 

  

	 	a.	Failure of the Institution to keep sufficient available balances on deposit with FHLBank to pay any interest, principal or other amount then due and owing to FHLBank
one (1) Business Day after FHLBank gives notice to the Institution that its available balances on deposit with FHLBank are insufficient to pay amounts then due and owing; or 

 

	 	b.	Continued failure of the Institution to perform any promise or obligation or to satisfy any condition or liability contained in this Agreement for five
(5) Business Days after FHLBank gives notice to the Institution of such failure; or 

  

	 	c.	Continued failure of the Institution to provide adequate Eligible Collateral as required by FHLBank for three (3) Business Days after FHLBank gives notice to the
Institution of such failure unless the Institution shall reduce its Required Collateral Amount during such three (3) Business Day period such that the Institution has sufficient Eligible Collateral; or 

 

	 	d.	Any suspension of payment by the Institution to any creditor of sums due or the occurrence of any event that results (or which with the giving of notice or passage of
time or both will result) in acceleration of the maturity of any indebtedness of the Institution to others under any security agreement, indenture, loan agreement or other undertaking, provided that such indebtedness is a material amount with
respect to the Institution and is not subject to a good faith dispute, or the Institution’s admission that it is unable to pay its debts as they mature; or 

 

	 	e.	Appointment of a trustee, conservator, liquidator, custodian or similar official for the Institution, or for substantially all of the Institution’s property, or
the entry of a judgment, decree or administrative decision adjudicating the Institution insolvent or bankrupt, or the commencement of proceedings seeking any of the foregoing if such proceedings have not been dismissed within 30 calendar days; or

  

	 	f.	Sale by the Institution of all or substantially all of the Institution’s assets or the taking of any action by the Institution to liquidate or dissolve; or

  

	 	g.	Termination of the Institution’s membership in FHLBank or the Institution’s ceasing to be a type of financial institution that is eligible under the Act to
become a member of FHLBank; or 

  

	 	h.	Merger, consolidation or other combination of the Institution with an entity that is not a member of FHLBank if the nonmember entity is the surviving entity in such
transaction; or 

  

	 	i.	FHLBank determines that any representation or warranty made or furnished by the Institution, its employees or other representatives to FHLBank, in this Agreement or in
any other manner, in connection with any Advance or other Indebtedness or Collateral, is incorrect or misleading in any material respect; or 

  

	 	j.	FHLBank reasonably and in good faith determines that a material adverse change has occurred in the financial condition of the Institution that materially impairs its
ability to pay its debts as they mature. 

  

	4.2	 Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, FHLBank shall have all of the rights and remedies provided by applicable
law, which shall include, but not be limited to, all of the remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of Kansas. In addition, FHLBank may take immediate possession of any of the Collateral or any part
thereof wherever the same may be found. FHLBank may sell, assign and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof to public or private sale for such price as FHLBank deems appropriate without any liability for any loss due to decrease in the market

  
 Page 5 of 10

	 	
value of the Collateral during the period held. FHLBank shall have the right to purchase all or part of the Collateral at such sale. If the Collateral includes instruments or securities that will
be redeemed by the issuer upon surrender, or any accounts or deposits in the possession of FHLBank, FHLBank may realize upon such Collateral without notice to the Institution. If any notification of intended disposition of any of the Collateral is
required by applicable law, such notification shall be deemed reasonable and properly given if mailed, postage prepaid, at least five (5) Business Days before any such disposition to the address of the Institution appearing on the records of
FHLBank. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, FHLBank may, in its sole discretion, apply any payment by or recovery from the Institution or any sum realized from Collateral, at such time and in such manner and order of priority as FHLBank
shall deem fit, regardless of any manifestation of any contrary intention or desire on the part of the Institution or the provisions of any other agreement between FHLBank and the Institution. The Institution agrees that FHLBank may exercise its
right of setoff upon the occurrence of an Event of Default in the same manner as if the Advances and Commitments were unsecured. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default at any time when all or part of
the obligations of the Institution to FHLBank hereunder shall be the subject of any guarantee by a third party for FHLBank’s benefit and there shall be other outstanding obligations of the Institution to FHLBank that are not so guaranteed but
that are secured by the Collateral, then any sums realized by FHLBank from the Collateral, or from any other Collateral pledged or furnished to FHLBank by the Institution under any other agreement, shall be applied first to the satisfaction of such
other nonguaranteed obligations and then the Institution’s guaranteed obligations hereunder. The Institution agrees to pay all the costs and expenses of FHLBank in the collection of the Indebtedness and enforcement and preservation of
FHLBank’s rights and remedies in case of default, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees. FHLBank in its discretion may apply any surplus after payment of Indebtedness, provision for repayment to FHLBank of any amounts
to be paid under outstanding Commitments and all costs of collection and enforcement, to third parties claiming a secondary security interest in the Collateral, with any remaining surplus paid to the Institution. The Institution shall be liable to
FHLBank for any deficiency remaining. 

  

	4.3	Power of Attorney. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, FHLBank may in its discretion, in its own name or in the name of its nominee or of
the Institution, do any or all things and take any and all actions that are pertinent to the protection of FHLBank’s interest hereunder and, if such actions are subject to the laws of a state, are lawful under the laws of the State of Kansas,
including the following: 

  

	 	a.	Terminate any consent given hereunder: 

  

	 	b.	Notify obligors on any Collateral to make payments thereon directly to FHLBank; 

 

	 	c.	Endorse any Collateral that is in the Institution’s name or that has been endorsed by others to the Institution’s name; 

 

	 	d.	Enter into any extension, settlement or other agreement to or affecting any Collateral; 

 

	 	e.	Take any action the Institution is required to take or that is otherwise necessary to: (1) and record a statement or otherwise a security interest in any or all of
the Collateral; or (2) to obtain, prescribe, protect, enforce or collect the Collateral; 

  

	 	f.	Take control of any funds or other proceeds generated by or arising from the Collateral and use the same to reduce Indebtedness as it becomes due; and

  

	 	g.	Cause the Collateral to be transferred to FHLBank’s name or the name of its nominee. 

The Institution hereby appoints FHLBank as its true and lawful attorney, for and on behalf of the Institution and in its name, place and
stead, to prepare, execute and record endorsements and assignments to FHLBank of all or any item of Collateral (including the identification and listing, by exhibit prepared by FHLBank or otherwise, of mortgage loans constituting such Collateral),
giving or granting to FHLBank, as such attorney, full power and authority to do or perform every lawful act necessary to proper in connection therewith as fully as the Institution could or might do. The Institution hereby ratifies and confirms all
that FHLBank shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of this special power of attorney. The special power of attorney (i) is granted for a period commencing on the date of the Event of Default and continuing until the discharge of all
Indebtedness and all obligations of the Institution hereunder, (ii) is coupled with an interest, and (iii) is irrevocable for the period granted. As the Institution’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact, FHLBank shall have no
responsibility to take any steps necessary to preserve rights against other parties or the duty to send notices, perform services or take any action in connection with the management of the Collateral. 

  
 Page 6 of 10

	4.4	Payment of Prepayment Charges. Any prepayment fees or charges for which provision is made, whether under a Confirmation or otherwise, with respect
to any Advance shall be payable at the time of any voluntary or involuntary payment of the principal of such Advance prior to the originally scheduled maturity thereof. This shall include, without limitation, payments that are made in connection
with the liquidation of the Institution or that become due as a result of an acceleration by FHLBank pursuant to Section 4.1, whether such payment is made by the Institution, by a trustee, conservator, receiver, liquidator, custodian or similar
official, of or for the Institution, or by any successor to or any assignee of the Institution. The Institution acknowledges and agrees that the damages incurred by FHLBank due to a prepayment of an Advance will be difficult to ascertain at the time
of such prepayment and, in lieu thereof, the Institution and FHLBank agree that the formula for calculation of the prepayment fee (or for the calculation of the fee payable upon prepayment of a non-prepayable Advance) set forth in the Confirmation
or in the Member Products Policy at the time the Advance is issued constitutes a fair, reasonable and good faith estimate of the damages suffered by FHLBank because of such prepayment and is therefore payable as a prepayment fee or charge.

  

	4.5	Default Rate. Any payment of principal or interest or any other sum due hereunder, if not paid when due (whether at stated maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise) shall bear interest, to the maximum extent permitted by law, at a rate per annum for each day during the period commencing on the due date thereof until such amount shall be paid in full equal to 315 basis points above the
previous business day’s daily effective federal funds rate as provided in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 and daily updates thereto, or any equivalent successor rate, release or publication, or as otherwise set forth in the Member
Products Policy. 

  

	4.6	Sale of Collateral. In view of the possibility that federal and state securities and other laws may impose certain restrictions on the method by
which sale of the Collateral may be effected, FHLBank and the Institution agree that any sale of the Collateral as a result of an Event of Default shall be deemed “commercially reasonable” regardless of whether the notice or manner of such
sale contains provisions or imposes, or is subject to, conditions or restrictions deemed appropriate to comply with the Securities Act of 1933 or any other applicable federal or state securities or other law. It is further agreed that from time to
time FHLBank may attempt to sell the Collateral by means of private placement. In so doing, FHLBank may restrict the bidders and prospective purchasers to those who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the investment only and not for
distribution, or otherwise impose restrictions deemed appropriate by FHLBank for the purpose of complying with the requirements of applicable securities laws. FHLBank may solicit offers to buy such Collateral, for cash or otherwise, from a limited
number of investors deemed by FHLBank to be responsible parties who might be interested in purchasing such Collateral. If FHLBank solicits offers from at least three (3) such investors, then the acceptance by FHLBank of the highest offer
obtained therefrom (whether or not three (3) offers arc obtained) shall be deemed to be a commercially reasonable method of disposing of the Collateral. 

 MISCELLANEOUS 
  

	5.1	General Representations and Warranties. The Institution represents and warrants that to the best of its knowledge as of the date hereof and as of
each date on which there shall be any outstanding Indebtedness or Commitment:

with the passage of time, the giving of notice, or otherwise, cause the Institution to be: (1) in violation of its charter or articles of incorporation, by-laws, the Act or the Regulations, any other law or administrative regulation, any court
decree or any order of any regulatory authority or (2) in default under or in breach of any indenture, contract or other instrument or agreement to which the Institution is a party or by which the Institution or any of its property may be

	 	b.	The Institution has full corporate power and authority and has received all corporate and governmental authorizations and approvals as may be required to enter into and
perform its obligations under this Agreement and to borrow each Advance. 

  

	 	c.	The information given by the Institution in any document provided, or in any oral statement made, in connection with an application or request for an Advance or a

exhibits, attachments, supplements, Confirmations incorporated herein and evidence of all necessary approvals, as part of its official written books and records. In addition to any other remedies which FHLBank may have under this Agreement or
otherwise, if the Institution breaches or defaults on any of its obligations set forth in this paragraph, FHLBank shall be entitled to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for an order requiring specific performance by the Institution of
such obligations, and the Institution shall not contest any such application and shall comply with any such order. 

  

	5.3	Good Faith; Liability of Bank. The Institution and FHLBank shall have an obligation of good faith in the performance and enforcement of every duty
or right imposed or granted by this Agreement, and any other actions or inactions taken or not taken with respect to this Agreement. “Good Faith” shall mean honesty in fact (i.e., an objective standard rather than a subjective standard).
FHLBank shall not be liable for any costs, expenses, damages, liabilities or claims (including attorneys’ and accountants’ fees) incurred by the Institution, except those costs, expenses, damages, liabilities or claims arising out of the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of FHLBank or any of its employees or duly appointed agents. In no event shall FHLBank be liable to the Institution or any third party for special, indirect or consequential damages, or lost profits or loss of
business, arising under or in connection with this Agreement, even if previously informed of the possibility of such damages and regardless of the form of action.

or the Federal Housing Finance Board. In the case of any such pledge or assignment, FHLBank shall have no further responsibility with respect to Collateral transferred to the pledgee or assignee, and all references herein to “FHLBank”
shall be read to refer instead to the pledgee or assignee with respect to such Collateral. The Institution may not voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law or otherwise assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or with
respect to any Indebtedness or Commitments without the express prior written consent of FHLBank. 

  

	5.5	Discretion to Deny Advances. Nothing contained herein or in any documents describing or setting forth FHLBank’s Member Products Policy or
other policies shall be construed as an agreement or commitment on the part of FHLBank to grant Advances hereunder, or to enter into any other transaction, the right and power of FHLBank in its discretion to either grant (with or without conditions)
or any Advance or other transaction hereunder being reserved. 

  

	5.6	Access to Bank Records. FHLBank shall grant to all governmental regulatory agencies having jurisdiction over the Institution, to the

FHLBank’s possession, the right to request directly from FHLBank any reports. summaries or information of FHLBank relating to the Institution and the right to observe the processing of reports or examine the Institution’s documents at

Institution or by the Institution to FHLBank pursuant to this Agreement. 

  

	5.7	Amendment; Waivers. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure therefrom shall be
effective unless executed by the party against whom such change is asserted and shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on the Institution in any case shall entitle the Institution
to any other or further notice or demand in the same or similar or other circumstance. Any forbearance, failure or delay by FHLBank in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not be deemed to be a waiver thereof, and any single or
partial exercise by FHLBank of any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not preclude the further exercise thereof. Every right, power and remedy of FHLBank shall continue in full force and effect until specifically waived by FHLBank in writing.

  

	5.8	 Jurisdiction; Legal Fees. In any action or proceeding brought by FHLBank or the Institution in order to enforce any right or
remedy under this Agreement, the parties hereby consent to, and agree that they will submit to, the jurisdiction of the United States District Court of the District of Kansas, or if such action or proceeding may not be brought in federal court, the
jurisdiction of the District Court of the County of Shawnee, State of Kansas, to the exclusion of all other courts. The Institution agrees that if any action or proceeding is brought by the Institution seeking to obtain any legal or equitable relief
against

FHLBank under or arising out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby, and such relief is not granted by the final decision after any and all appeals of a court of competent
jurisdiction, the Institution will pay all attorneys’ fees and other costs incurred by FHLBank in connection therewith. The Institution agrees to reimburse FHLBank for all costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses
of counsel for FHLBank) incurred by FHLBank in connection with the enforcement or preservation of FHLBank’s rights under this Agreement including, but not limited to, its rights in respect of any Collateral and the audit or possession thereof.

  

	5.9	Applicable Law; Severability. This Agreement and all Advances granted under this Agreement shall be governed by the statutory and common law of the
United States and, to the extent federal law incorporates or defers to state law, the laws (exclusive of choice of law provisions) of the State of Kansas. In the event that any portion of this Agreement conflicts with applicable law, such conflict
shall not affect other provisions of this Agreement that can be given effect without the conflicting provision, and to this end the provisions of the Agreement shall be severable. 

 

	5.10	Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assignees of the Institution
and FHLBank. 

  

	5.11	Notices. Any notice, advice, request, consent or direction given, made or withdrawn pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing or by machine-readable

delivered by hand or by machine-readable electronic transmission, when actually received by such party at its principal office.

time notices, announcements, press releases and other communications, some of which may be deemed advertisements, concerning FHLBank and its products and services and other information which FHLBank believes may be of interest or benefit to its
members, by mail, delivery service or e-mail, or facsimile to the facsimile number(s) set forth below the Institution’s signature, or to such other facsimile number(s) as the Institution shall indicate from time to time.

  

	5.13	Recorded Conversations. Each party authorizes the other, in its discretion, to record telephone conversations between employees or other
representatives of the parties concerning any proposed or actual Advances or other transactions between the parties. Such recorded conversations shall be admissible evidence of the terms and conditions of such transactions and the parties waive any
right to object to the admission of such evidence on the ground that it is not in writing. The parties shall not be obligated to inform the other party of such recording at any time. 

 

	5.14	Entire Agreement. This Agreement embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof
and supersedes all prior agreements between such parties, and all oral and written statements by either party, that relate to such subject matter. Notwithstanding the above, Advances made by FHLBank to the Institution prior to the execution of this
Agreement shall continue to be governed by the terms of the Confirmation pursuant to which such Advances were made, and otherwise by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
