Capital Plan

I. Introduction

A. Capital Overview
           
The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 specified that the Federal Home Loan Banks (“FHLBanks”) transition from a “subscription” capital form to a permanent capital form. The Act also imposes certain risk-based capital requirements on the FHLBanks. The Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis  (“FHLBI”) initially adopted its capital plan in 2002 in accordance with the implementing regulations (as amended, the “Capital Regulations”) issued by the Federal Housing Finance Board (“Finance Board”), predecessor to the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“Finance Agency”). Subsequent amendments to the FHLBI capital plan were approved by the Finance Board on October 9, 2002 and by the Finance Agency on March 6, 2009, May 18, 2009 and August 5, 2011. The FHLBI is now amending and restating this capital plan (as amended and restated herein, “Capital Plan” or “Plan”) to: (i) modify the ranges of the Capital Stock purchase percentage requirements relating to member activities, (ii) update certain terminology and references to Finance Agency regulations, (iii) remove certain transitional provisions that pertained to the initial adoption of the capital plan in 2002 but are no longer applicable under the Capital Regulations, and (iv) make other clarifying and technical changes. Terms used but not defined herein shall be used as defined in the Act or the Capital Regulations. 

B. Plan Summary

 The Plan provides for the issuance of Class B Stock, divided into Subseries B-1 and B-2, based upon the greater of a percentage of a member’s Total Mortgage Assets (its Membership Stock Requirement) or its Activity-based Stock Requirement with the FHLBI, with a minimum investment of $1,000. Class B Stock is redeemable upon five (5) years’ prior written notice, subject to certain restrictions and limitations.
 The Total Mortgage Asset percentage range shall be 0.75% to 1.25%, and the Membership Stock Requirement is subject to a maximum stock purchase of $35,000,000. The Activity-based Stock Requirement is calculated as a percentage of the underlying activity and does not have a minimum or maximum dollar amount.
 The ranges for each type of Activity-based Asset shall be as follows: a. Credit Products: (i) Advances - 1.0% – 6.0%, (ii) Lines of Credit - 1.0% - 6.0%, and (iii) Standby Letters of Credit – 0.1% – 6.0%; b. Derivative Contracts - 1.0% - 6.0%; and c. Acquired Member Assets - 0.0% - 6.0%.
 The Plan provides for FHLBI discretionary repurchases of Excess Stock, subject to certain limitations.
 The Plan provides that the FHLBI may make offerings of additional shares of Capital Stock from time to time.
 The Stock Requirement for a Former Member that has had its membership terminated by the Board of Directors shall equal its Activity-based Stock Requirement.
 The Plan acknowledges that the FHLBI must maintain certain capital requirements under the Act and Finance Agency regulations, and provides that required investments in Capital Stock may be adjusted by the Board of Directors, as needed, to enable FHLBI to continue to meet those capital requirements.
 Required stock subject to a member redemption request or a withdrawal from membership request, or held by a member after an involuntary termination or by a non-member after a merger with a member shall be converted to Subseries B-2 stock and shall receive eighty percent (80%) of the Subseries B-1 Stock declared dividend.

                  1           

This Summary is not intended to be a complete description of all Plan provisions and should not be construed as such. This Summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the specific provisions of the Plan.

C. Transition Provisions

The transition provisions for this amended and restated Capital Plan are set forth in Section IX.

D. General

In certain sections of this Capital Plan, the terms “in its discretion” or “in its sole discretion” are used when describing the FHLBI’s decision-making authority. The FHLBI acknowledges that the Finance Agency, in its role as safety and soundness regulator, may limit the FHLBI’s discretion in certain circumstances.

The Capital Plan takes into account the applicable provisions of the Act and the Capital Regulations and it is not intended to contradict such provisions.  If any provisions of the Capital Plan conflict with the actual provisions of the Act or the Capital Regulations, as amended from time to time, the provisions of the Act or the Capital Regulations, as then in effect, will control.

        “Withdrawal Cancellation Fee” means the $500 fee that may be imposed by the FHLBI on the member for canceling a notice of withdrawal from membership. 

III. Capital Requirements

The FHLBI shall maintain its Regulatory Capital Requirements.

The Finance Agency has the authority to require the FHLBI to hold additional capital, which could require the FHLBI to amend this Capital Plan or the Enterprise Risk Management Policy from time to time.

IV. Class of Stock; Rights and Dividends

The Board of Directors of the FHLBI hereby confirms its approval of the issuance of a class of stock, to be known as “Class B Stock,” consisting of Subseries B-1 and Subseries B-2, with the rights, privileges and preferences, and subject to the limitations, set forth below. The FHLBI shall issue no other classes or subseries of stock except by amendment to this Capital Plan and approval by the Finance Agency, and shall not issue stock other than in accordance with Finance Agency regulations in effect at the time the stock is to be issued. FHLBI stock may only be issued to and held by members (or their successors upon consolidation or merger, with respect to holding existing stock).

Capital Stock will be issued and held in book entry form only and shall be tradable only between the FHLBI, its members, and Former Members; provided, however, that stock may only be transferred between members as set forth in Section VI.

In accordance with 12 C.F.R. Part 1261 (as amended from time to time) and subject to Sections V and VII, each member (or successor by merger or consolidation that occurs after the Record Date) holding Capital Stock shall be entitled to vote in the election of directors based upon one vote for each share of Capital Stock required to be held by the member as of the Record Date, provided that the number of votes that any member may cast for any one directorship based upon the member’s Capital Stock holdings shall not exceed the average number of shares of Capital Stock that were required to be held by all members located in that state as of the Record Date.  For purposes of applying 12 C.F.R. Part 1261, the Capital Stock that a member was “required to hold” shall be the member’s Stock Requirement as of the Record Date.

For purposes of this Section IV, a member (i) that has notified the FHLBI of its intent to withdraw from membership or (ii) whose membership is to be terminated by consolidation or merger as described in Section VII, shall continue to have voting rights with respect to its Stock Requirement, subject to the limitation described in the preceding paragraph, until the Effective Date of its membership termination.  Thereafter, a Former Member that withdraws from membership after the Record Date will retain the right to vote in the first election occurring subsequent to the last Record Date on which it was a member.  A Former Member that withdraws from membership prior to the Record Date but still holds Capital Stock to support outstanding obligations is not considered a member hereunder and has no voting rights with respect to such stock.  An institution whose membership is terminated involuntarily under Section VII ceases to be a member as of the date on which the Board acts to terminate the membership, and the institution therefore has no voting rights with respect to its Capital Stock as of such date.

A. Class B Stock

                  6

1. Class B Stock shall have a par value of one hundred dollars ($100) and shall be issued, redeemed and repurchased only at such par value. Class B Stock shall be issued in an amount necessary to at least meet each member's Stock Requirement as described in Subsection 2 below and Section V, and may be issued in additional amounts as provided in Subsections C and D below.

2. Class B Stock shall consist of two subseries, B-1 and B-2.  Subseries B-1 Stock will be the stock purchased by members as needed to meet their Stock Requirement.  Subseries B-1 Stock will be converted to Subseries B-2 Stock if the member withdraws from membership, or if its membership is terminated, or if it files a notice to redeem stock that is needed to meet the member's Stock Requirement. Subseries B-1 Excess Stock, if any, will not be converted to Subseries B-2 Stock, as long as such stock remains Excess Stock.

3. Holders of Class B Stock shall be deemed the owners of the FHLBI’s retained earnings, surplus, undivided profits and equity reserves, but shall have no right to receive any portion of those amounts, except through a declared dividend or distribution approved by the Board of Directors or upon the liquidation of the FHLBI.

4. Class B Stock may be redeemed upon five (5) years’ prior written notice from the member in accordance with Section VI.B.  Class B Excess Stock is also subject to repurchase by the FHLBI, in its discretion, whether or not requested by the member, in accordance with Section VI.C.

B. Dividends

1. The Board of Directors, in its discretion and subject to the provisions of this Section IV and Section XII.A, shall establish and declare the amount and type, whether in cash, stock, or a combination thereof, of the dividend, if any, to be paid on each class and subseries of Capital Stock on a quarterly basis or as otherwise determined by the Board of Directors.  The dividend on the Subseries B-2 Stock shall be equal to eighty percent (80%) of the dividend that is declared by the Board of Directors on the Subseries B-1 Stock.  The amount of dividends to be paid shall be based upon the average number of each subseries of shares held by the member during the quarter.  Dividends are non-cumulative with respect to payment obligations.

2.    The FHLBI shall not declare or pay any dividends on Capital Stock if it is not in compliance with any of its minimum capital requirements, or pay a dividend that would cause it to fail to meet any of its minimum capital requirements.  The FHLBI shall not declare or pay a dividend if the par value of the Bank’s Capital Stock is impaired or is projected to become impaired after paying such dividend.  Dividends, if declared, will only be paid from current net earnings or from retained earnings, subject to Section XII.A.

C. Additional Offerings

The FHLBI is authorized to issue additional Capital Stock, at par value, to its members from time to time.  Participation in such offerings shall be voluntary on the part of the members, on terms and conditions to be determined by the Board of Directors, but such offerings shall not discriminate in favor or against any member.

D. Liquidation, Consolidation or Merger of the FHLBI

                  7

1. Subject to the Finance Agency’s authority to prescribe rules, regulations or orders governing the liquidation of a Federal Home Loan Bank, upon the liquidation of the FHLBI, following the retirement of all outstanding liabilities of the FHLBI to its creditors, all shares of Class B Stock are to be repurchased at par value, provided that if sufficient funds are not available to accomplish the repurchase in full of the Class B Stock at par value, then such repurchase shall occur on a pro rata basis among all holders of Class B Stock.  Following the repurchase in full of all Class B Stock, any remaining assets will be distributed to the holders of Class B Stock in the proportion that each stockholder’s Class B Stock bears to the total Class B Stock outstanding immediately prior to the initial repurchase of Class B Stock pursuant to such liquidation.

2. In the event of the merger or consolidation of the FHLBI into another FHLBank, the FHLBI members shall immediately become members of the successor FHLBank, and their existing Capital Stock shall be converted to equivalent stock in the successor FHLBank or as otherwise provided in any plan of merger between the FHLBanks or in any lawful order of the Finance Agency.

3. In the event of the merger or consolidation of another FHLBank into the FHLBI, members of the merged FHLBank shall immediately become members of the FHLBI, and the outstanding stock of the merged FHLBank shall be converted to equivalent Capital Stock in the FHLBI or as otherwise provided in any plan of merger between the FHLBanks or in any lawful order of the Finance Agency.  

V. Investment by Members

All members of the FHLBI or institutions applying for membership shall be required to maintain a minimum investment in the FHLBI by purchasing shares of its Capital Stock as follows.

A.  Stock Requirement

1. Each member or institution applying for membership, as a condition of initial or continuing membership, shall purchase and hold shares of Subseries B-1 Stock in an amount equal to its Stock Requirement.  The initial purchase of stock must occur in a single transaction before the institution's membership will be effective.  Thereafter, the Stock Requirement shall be the greater of (i) the member’s Membership Stock Requirement, subject to the minimum and maximum amounts established pursuant to Subsection 2 below or (ii) the member’s Activity-based Stock Requirement.  Where a member has been placed into receivership, conservatorship or other legal custodian and the FHLBI’s Board of Directors has terminated such entity’s membership, the entity’s Stock Requirement will be equal to the entity’s Activity-based Stock Requirement. 

2. The Membership Stock Requirement percentage shall be within a range of 0.75% to 1.25% of the member’s Total Mortgage Assets.  The Board of Directors may adjust the Membership Stock Requirement from time to time as more fully described in Subsections B and C below.  Stock required to be purchased based upon a member’s Total Mortgage Assets shall not be less than $1,000 par value (10 shares) and shall not exceed $35,000,000 par value (350,000 shares).

                  8

 
3. The ranges for the Activity-based Stock Requirement for each type of Activity-based Asset are as follows:

        Type      Range
      Credit Products:     
       Advances     1.0% - 6.0%
        Lines of Credit    1.0% - 6.0%
        Standby Letters of Credit  0.1% - 6.0%
      Derivative Contracts    1.0% - 6.0%
      Acquired Member Assets  0.0% - 6.0%

The specific Activity-based Stock Requirement percentage for each type of Activity-based Asset shall be established by the Board of Directors by resolution to take effect on the Plan’s Effective Date, pursuant to Section IX.A.  The Board, in its discretion, may apply any percentages that it revises pursuant to the preceding sentence and Section IX.A retroactively or prospectively to any Activity-based Assets outstanding as of the Effective Date, and may apply the revised percentages differently to different products within each category of the Bank’s outstanding Activity-based Assets.  Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to limit the Board’s authority to adjust the applicable percentages for the Activity-based Stock Requirement before the Effective Date (within the ranges then in effect).  The FHLBI shall provide prompt notice to the Finance Agency of the percentages established or revised pursuant to this Subsection A.3, Subsection C.2 below and Section IX.A.  Following the Effective Date, such percentages may be changed from time to time as described in Subsection C below.

4. The member’s Stock Requirement will be recalculated from time to time in accordance with the procedures set forth in Subsections B and C below.  Any additional stock purchases necessary to meet a new Stock Requirement shall be made from the member by wire transfer or by debiting the member’s CMS Account or the member’s Time Account, as designated by the member.

5. If a member fails on any Recalculation Date to comply with a recalculated Stock Requirement, the member’s access to products and services of the FHLBI shall be suspended until such requirement is met, and any failure to comply within ten (10) Business Days of the Recalculation Date may result in involuntary termination of membership.

6. The FHLBI reserves the right to recalculate a member’s Stock Requirement at any time using the member’s most current Financial Statements and the FHLBI’s current records at the time of such recalculation.

7. As of the Effective Date, a member that has filed a notice of withdrawal of FHLBI membership, or whose membership has been otherwise terminated in accordance with Section VII, shall not (i) be required to meet any increases or (ii) benefit from any decreases based upon changes in the Total Mortgage Asset percentages or the Activity-based Stock Requirement percentages while the notice of withdrawal is pending or subsequent to such membership termination, unless during such notice period a withdrawing member enters into new Activity-based Assets, in which case changes in the Activity-based Stock Requirement percentages will be applied to the member’s outstanding and new Activity-based Assets (or if the changes were determined to apply prospectively only, then only to new Activity-based Assets) upon or following the effective date of such adjustment or amendment.  The Membership Stock Requirement for any such members shall be the amount of Class B Stock required as of the date of the notice of withdrawal or the date of membership termination; therefore, no calculation or 

                  9

recalculation of the Membership Stock Requirement shall be made with respect to any institution that has filed a notice of withdrawal of FHLBI membership, or whose FHLBI membership terminates, on or before any subsequent Recalculation Date.

B.  Stock Requirement Calculation

1. Except as provided in Subsection A.7 above, a member’s Total Mortgage Assets will be determined on or about April 1 of each year, based upon the member’s Financial Statements as of December 31 of the prior year.

2. A member that enters into a new Activity-based Asset must comply with any associated requirement to purchase additional Capital Stock at the time the new Activity-based Asset is entered into and for as long as the Activity-based Asset is outstanding.

3. Except as provided in Subsection A.7 above, a member’s Stock Requirement will be recalculated on each Recalculation Date.

C. Adjustment or Amendments to Stock Requirement Percentages

1. The Board of Directors has a continuing obligation to review and adjust the Stock Requirement, as necessary, to maintain the FHLBI’s compliance with its minimum capital requirements.

2. The Board of Directors may adjust the percentages used in determining the Membership Stock Requirement or the Activity-based Stock Requirement from time to time within the ranges set forth in Subsection A above.  In its discretion, the Board may apply percentage adjustments only to Activity-based Assets having certain terms, provisions or characteristics.  Adjustments to Activity-based Stock Requirements made pursuant to this Subsection C.2 may be applied prospectively, and may also be applied retroactively to Activity-based Assets acquired before the effective date of the adjustments.  The FHLBI shall provide prompt notice to the Finance Agency of any adjustments to the percentages used in determining the Stock Requirement made pursuant to this Subsection C.2.  The Board of Directors may adjust such percentages outside the ranges set forth in Subsection A by amendment of the Capital Plan and with prior approval from the Finance Agency, in accordance with the Act and Finance Agency regulations, as amended from time to time. 
 
3. Except as provided below, any adjustments or Finance Agency-approved amendments to the Stock Requirement percentages after the Effective Date shall take effect not less than fifteen (15) days after notice to the members, which effective date shall be a Recalculation Date, and (for purposes of the Membership Stock Requirement (except as provided in Subsection A.7 above)) shall be based upon a member’s current Total Mortgage Assets as reflected in its most recent Financial Statements and (for purposes of the Activity-based Stock Requirement) the amounts described in the definition of Activity-based Assets.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, adjustments to the Stock Requirement percentages, may be given immediate effect if the Board of Directors determines that failure to give immediate effect could reduce the FHLBI’s Capital Ratio below the minimum Regulatory Capital Requirements established by the Finance Agency.  The FHLBI shall provide prompt notice to members of any adjustment that is given immediate effect, and the effective date of each such adjustment shall be a Recalculation Date.  The FHLBI shall provide prompt notice to the Finance Agency of any adjustments to the percentages used in determining the Stock Requirement made pursuant to this Subsection C.3.
 

                  10

        
VI.   Transfer, Redemption or Repurchase of Stock

A. Transfer to Other Members

With the written approval of the FHLBI, which may be withheld in its sole discretion, a member may transfer Excess Stock to another FHLBI member.  Any such transfers shall be at par value and shall be effective upon being recorded on the appropriate books and records of the FHLBI.  All transfers shall be undertaken in accordance with 12 C.F.R. § 1277.25 (or successor Finance Agency regulations).  The shares subject to the transfer shall be identified by the member in the written notice requesting the transfer.  Transferred shares that were subject to a prior notice of redemption shall have such redemption notice automatically cancelled upon the transfer, but no cancellation fee will be charged.

B.   Redemption of Stock by Member

1. A member may have its Class B Stock redeemed by providing five (5) years’ prior written notice of redemption to the FHLBI. The Redemption Period will commence on the date of the FHLBI’s receipt of the written notice.  The redemption notice shall identify by date of acquisition and quantity the particular shares of Class B Stock to be redeemed.  If the redemption notice fails to identify the particular shares to be redeemed, the member shall be deemed to have requested redemption of the most recently acquired shares that are not already subject to a pending redemption request.  At the end of the Redemption Period, only Class B Stock that has been held for at least five years and that is then Excess Stock can be used to fill the redemption request.  The conversion of Subseries B-1 Stock to Subseries B-2 Stock or the reverse does not change the acquisition date of the Class B Stock.  A member shall not have more than one notice of redemption outstanding at one time for the same shares of Class B Stock.

2. Class B Stock that is part of a member’s Stock Requirement at the time a redemption request is filed with respect to such stock shall be immediately converted from Subseries B-1 to Subseries B-2, and shall receive the lower dividend, until the stock is redeemed, the redemption notice is cancelled or the stock becomes Excess Stock.  If during the Redemption Period the Subseries B-2 Stock becomes Excess Stock, the Subseries B-2 Stock will be re-converted to Subseries B-1 Stock at the next Recalculation Date determined under Section V.B for the remainder of the Redemption Period or until such stock is again needed by the member to meet its Stock Requirement.  If during the Redemption Period, such stock becomes needed by the member to meet its Stock Requirement, such stock shall be re-converted to Subseries B-2 Stock at the next Recalculation Date determined under Section V.B.  This pattern of conversion between Subseries B-1 Stock and Subseries B-2 Stock shall continue during the Redemption Period to the extent that the status of the Class B Stock that is subject to the notice of redemption changes (between Excess Stock and stock that is needed by the member to satisfy its Stock Requirement).

3.  Any Capital Stock that is redeemed will be retired and will no longer be deemed outstanding stock.

4.  A member may cancel a notice of redemption by notifying the FHLBI in writing.  Cancellations shall be applied first against stock needed to meet a member's Stock Requirement and then against Excess Stock.  The redemption cancellation notice shall identify, as to both the Stock Requirement and Excess Stock (if any), the shares of stock to which the notice applies.  Further, a redemption notice shall be automatically cancelled if the FHLBI is unable to redeem the stock within five (5) Business Days of the end of the Redemption Period because the stock is still needed to meet the member’s Stock Requirement.  The FHLBI may impose a Redemption 

                  11

Cancellation Fee in consideration for canceling a redemption notice, whether the member cancels the notice or the notice is automatically cancelled as provided above.
 
5. Redemptions conducted pursuant to this Subsection B shall be subject in all respects to Subsection D below. 
 
C. Repurchase of Stock

1. The FHLBI may, at its sole discretion, upon not less than fifteen (15) days’ notice to affected shareholders, repurchase any outstanding Capital Stock that is Excess Stock.  The Board of Directors shall determine in its discretion the amount of Excess Stock to be repurchased.  Notices to shareholders pursuant to this Subsection C.1 shall provide that (i) the shareholder may identify shares of the Excess Stock to be repurchased by date of acquisition, and (ii) if the shareholder does not identify particular shares to be repurchased by the date specified in the notice, the FHLBI shall first repurchase the most recently acquired shares of the shareholder’s Excess Stock.  A member’s submission of a notice of intent to voluntarily withdraw from membership, or a termination of its membership in any other manner, shall not, in and of itself, cause any stock to be deemed Excess Stock.

2. If a member has one or more redemption requests outstanding as of the date of repurchase of shares of Capital Stock under redemption and has not identified specific shares to be repurchased, the FHLBI shall first repurchase the most recently acquired shares of Capital Stock that are Excess Stock and are not subject to a redemption request, followed by Excess Stock that is subject to a redemption request and has been outstanding the shortest period of time, and then (to the extent necessary) by repurchasing shares of Excess Stock that are subject to a redemption request that has been outstanding for the next shortest period of time, and continuing in that order to the extent necessary until the member no longer has any Excess Stock, or the FHLBI has repurchased all of the member’s Excess Stock that the FHLBI intended to repurchase. 

3. The Board of Directors authorizes FHLBI Management, in its sole discretion, to grant or deny, in whole or in part, a written request to repurchase Excess Stock submitted by an individual member or Former Member. 

4. Repurchases conducted pursuant to this Subsection C shall be subject in all respects to Subsection D below.

5. All repurchased stock will be retired and will no longer be deemed outstanding stock.

D. Additional Limitations to Redemption or Repurchase of Stock

1. The FHLBI may not redeem or repurchase any stock if, following the redemption or repurchase, the FHLBI would fail to meet any of its minimum capital requirements or the member would fail to maintain its Stock Requirement.  If at any time more than one member has outstanding a redemption notice pursuant to Section VI.B, or a redemption of Capital Stock in connection with a termination of membership in accordance with Section VII as to which the applicable Redemption Period has expired, and if the redemption of all of the shares of Capital Stock subject to such redemption notices or terminations of membership would cause the FHLBI to fail to be in compliance with any of its minimum capital requirements, then the FHLBI shall 

                  12

fulfill such redemptions as it is able to do so from time to time, beginning with such redemptions as to which the Redemption Period expired on the earliest date and fulfilling such redemptions relating to that date on a pro rata basis from time to time until fully satisfied, and then fulfilling such redemptions as to which the Redemption Period expired on the next earliest date in the same manner, and continuing in that order until all of such redemptions as to which the Redemption Period has expired have been fulfilled.

2. The FHLBI may not redeem or repurchase any Capital Stock without the prior written approval of the Finance Agency if the Finance Agency or the Board of Directors has determined that the FHLBI has incurred or is likely to incur losses that result in or are likely to result in charges against the capital of the FHLBI.  This prohibition shall apply even if the FHLBI is in compliance with its minimum capital requirements, and shall remain in effect for as long as the FHLBI continues to incur (or remains likely to incur) such charges or until the Finance Agency or the Board determines that such charges are not expected to continue. 

3. The FHLBI may retain the proceeds of redeemed or repurchased Capital Stock as additional collateral if the FHLBI reasonably determines that there is an existing or anticipated collateral deficiency related to any obligation owed by the member to the FHLBI and the member has failed to deliver additional collateral to resolve such deficiency to the FHLBI's satisfaction, until all such obligations have been satisfied or the existing or anticipated deficiency is resolved to the FHLBI's satisfaction. 

4. The FHLBI reserves the right under 12 C.F.R. § 1277.27(b) (or successor Finance Agency regulation) and this Capital Plan to suspend all redemptions of Capital Stock if the FHLBI reasonably believes that continued redemptions would cause the FHLBI to fail to meet its minimum capital requirements, would prevent the FHLBI from maintaining adequate capital against potential risk that may not be adequately reflected in its minimum capital requirements, or would otherwise prevent the FHLBI from operating in a safe and sound manner.  The FHLBI will provide the Finance Agency with notice of such suspension within two Business Days.  The FHLBI acknowledges that the Finance Agency may require the FHLBI to re-institute redemptions of Capital Stock.  During any period in which the FHLBI has suspended redemptions of Capital Stock, the FHLBI shall not repurchase any Capital Stock without the written permission of the Finance Agency.

5. With respect to stock redemptions and repurchases described in Subsections B and C above: (i) the FHLBI shall pay to the member the par value of each redeemed or repurchased share, and such amount will be credited to the member’s CMS Account or the member’s Time Account, as designated by the member, on the date of redemption or repurchase; and (ii) the FHLBI shall pay the appropriate amount to a Former Member by wire transfer or check.

VII.  Termination of or Withdrawal from Membership

Any member may voluntarily withdraw from membership in the FHLBI upon written notice to the FHLBI.  Further, membership may be terminated by operation of law as the result of a consolidation or merger of a member into a non-member that does not wish to be, or is not eligible to be, a member of the FHLBI, or into a member of another FHLBank or into another member of the FHLBI.  The FHLBI’s Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion at any time, take action to unilaterally terminate the membership of any member 

                  13

(involuntarily) that (i) fails to comply with any requirement of the Act, Finance Agency regulations or this Plan, (ii) becomes insolvent or is otherwise subject to the appointment of a conservator, receiver or other custodian under federal or state law, or (iii) would jeopardize the safety or soundness of the FHLBI if it were to remain a member.  The effect of any termination of membership on a member’s Capital Stock ownership shall be as follows:

A. Effective Date of Termination

1. The Effective Date of termination for a voluntary withdrawal by a member shall be on the last day of the latest Redemption Period for the Capital Stock held by the member as a condition of membership, as of the date the FHLBI received the written notice of withdrawal.  The Redemption Period for all Capital Stock held by the member and not already subject to a notice of redemption will commence on the date the FHLBI receives the member’s written notice of withdrawal.

2. The Effective Date for an involuntary termination shall be the date the Board of Directors acts to terminate the membership, which shall commence the Redemption Period for all Capital Stock held by the institution on that date and not already subject to a notice of redemption.

3.  The Effective Date for a termination of membership resulting from the consolidation or merger of a member into a non-member that is not seeking membership in the FHLBI, or into a member of another FHLBank, shall be the date of cancellation of the member’s charter, which shall commence the Redemption Period for the member’s Capital Stock held by the member (or its successor) as of such cancellation date and not already subject to a notice of redemption.  On the date of such termination of membership, the Capital Stock held by the disappearing member will be transferred on the books of the FHLBI into the name of the surviving institution.

4. The Effective Date for a termination of membership resulting from the consolidation or merger of a member into another member of the FHLBI shall be the date of the cancellation of the disappearing member's charter. At such time, the Capital Stock held by the disappearing member will be transferred on the books of the FHLBI into the name of the surviving member.  The cancellation of the disappearing member's charter shall not commence the Redemption Period for the Capital Stock previously held by the disappearing member.  The Redemption Period for such Capital Stock shall commence only upon the filing of an appropriate redemption notice by the surviving member or otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Capital Plan.

5. The Effective Date for a termination of membership resulting from the relocation of a member’s principal place of business shall be the date on which the transfer of membership under the applicable Finance Agency regulation becomes effective, which shall commence the Redemption Period for the member’s Capital Stock held on that date and not already subject to a notice of redemption.

B. Member Rights During Redemption Period

1. All holders of Capital Stock shall be entitled to receive all declared dividends on such stock during the Redemption Period.

2. A member's submission of a notice of intent to voluntarily withdraw from membership or its termination of membership in any other manner shall not, in and of itself, cause any Capital Stock to be deemed Excess Stock.

                  14

3. Except as set forth in Section VI.D, and unless the withdrawing or terminated member must continue to comply with a Stock Requirement related to its Activity-based Stock Requirement, the FHLBI shall redeem the member's Capital Stock upon expiration of the Redemption Period.  In accordance with 12 C.F.R. § 1263.29 (or successor Finance Agency regulation), all indebtedness or other obligations of the member to the FHLBI (including, without limitation, prepayment fees and grants) must be repaid or otherwise settled before the FHLBI shall redeem or repurchase the member's Capital Stock (or release the proceeds of any redeemed or repurchased Capital Stock) that is required to support the indebtedness or other obligation.

4.   A member that files a notice to voluntarily withdraw from membership may continue to enter into Activity-based Assets with the FHLBI, subject to the following provisions:

a. Without the consent of the FHLBI, no such transaction may mature or otherwise terminate after the Effective Date of the member’s termination.

b. A member’s Class B Stock that is part of the member’s Stock Requirement at the time the notice of withdrawal is filed shall be immediately converted from Subseries B-1 Stock to Subseries B-2 Stock, and (pursuant to Section IV.B) shall receive the lower dividend, until the stock is redeemed or the withdrawal notice is canceled.  A member’s stock that is or becomes Excess Stock during the Redemption Period will continue to be Subseries B-1 Stock or will re-convert to Subseries B-1 Stock at the next Recalculation Date determined under Section V.B.

c.    On or after the date of the notice of withdrawal, in the event a withdrawing member engages in additional Activity-based Assets that require the member to purchase additional Capital Stock, such stock shall be deemed to be automatically subject to a notice of redemption with the Redemption Periods to commence on the dates of purchases of the stock.  While a withdrawal notice is pending, a withdrawing member shall not be required to purchase additional Capital Stock based upon changes in its Membership Stock Requirement.  A member shall have no further right to enter into Activity-based Assets with the FHLBI on or after the date that membership terminates in accordance with 12 C.F.R. §1263.26(b) (or successor Finance Agency regulation), notwithstanding that the member may have additional Capital Stock that was purchased after the date of the notice of withdrawal and for which the Redemption Period has not ended.

d.    Except as authorized by the preceding Subsection (c), a withdrawing member shall continue to maintain Capital Stock sufficient to meet its Stock Requirement in accordance with the provisions of this Capital Plan until the date on which its membership terminates.  Prior to such termination date, any Capital Stock that is not required to meet the member's Stock Requirement shall be Excess Stock subject to repurchase.  On or after such termination date, any Capital Stock that is not required to meet the member's Stock Requirement related to its Activity-based Stock Requirement shall be Excess Stock subject to repurchase.
 
5.   A member that is involuntarily terminated by the Board of Directors may not enter into any further Activity-based Assets, but shall make arrangements for an orderly liquidation of all outstanding indebtedness or other obligations of the member to the FHLBI (including, without limitation, prepayment fees and grants).

a. A member’s Class B Stock that is part of the member’s Stock Requirement at the time of the involuntary termination shall be immediately converted from Subseries B-1 Stock to Subseries B-2 Stock and (pursuant to Section IV.B) shall receive the lower dividend until the stock is redeemed.  A member’s stock that is or becomes Excess Stock during the Redemption 

                  15

Period will continue to be Subseries B-1 Stock or will convert back to Subseries B-1 stock at the next Recalculation Date.
        
b. No Capital Stock that is part of a member’s Stock Requirement related to its Activity-based Stock Requirement on the date of such involuntary termination shall be redeemed or repurchased by the FHLBI until the indebtedness or other obligations are repaid or otherwise settled.

c. Subject to Section VI.D, Excess Stock held by such member may be repurchased, at the sole discretion of FHLBI Management, before such indebtedness or other obligations are repaid or otherwise settled.

6.   A member that is terminated due to a consolidation or merger with a non-member or with a member of another FHLBank shall not enter into any further Activity-based Assets, but shall make arrangements for an orderly liquidation of all of the member’s outstanding indebtedness or other obligations to the FHLBI (including, without limitation, prepayment fees and grants).

a. If the non-member institution into which the member has been consolidated or merged has given notice to the FHLBI of its intention to apply for FHLBI membership, liquidation shall not be required unless the non-member abandons the application process or the FHLBI denies the application for membership. 

b.    A member’s Class B Stock that is part of the member’s Stock Requirement at the time of the termination shall be immediately converted from Subseries B-1 Stock to Subseries B-2 Stock and (pursuant to Section IV.B) shall receive the lower dividend until the stock is redeemed.  A member’s stock that is or becomes Excess Stock during the Redemption Period will continue to be Subseries B-1 Stock or will convert back to Subseries B-1 Stock at the next Recalculation Date.
 
c.    No Capital Stock that is part of a member’s Stock Requirement related to its Activity-based Stock Requirement on the effective date of such consolidation or merger, whether held by the member or its successor, shall be redeemed or repurchased until the indebtedness or other obligations are repaid or otherwise settled.

d.    Subject to Section VI.D, Excess Stock held by such member may be repurchased, at the sole discretion of FHLBI Management, before the outstanding indebtedness or other obligations are repaid or otherwise settled.

7. A member that is terminated due to a relocation of its principal place of business to another FHLBank district shall not enter into any further Activity-based Assets, but shall make arrangements for an orderly liquidation of all of the member’s outstanding indebtedness or other obligations to the FHLBI (including, without limitation, prepayment fees and grants).

a.    A member’s Class B stock that is part of the member’s Stock Requirement at the time of the termination shall be immediately converted from Subseries B-1 Stock to Subseries B-2 Stock and (pursuant to Section IV.B) shall receive the lower dividend until the stock is redeemed.  A member’s stock that is or becomes Excess Stock during the Redemption Period will continue to be Subseries B-1 Stock or will convert back to Subseries B-1 Stock at the next Recalculation Date.

                  16

b.    No Capital Stock that is part of a member’s Stock Requirement related to its Activity-based Stock Requirement on the effective date of such relocation shall be redeemed or repurchased until the indebtedness or other obligations are repaid or otherwise settled.

c.    Subject to Section VI.D, Excess Stock held by such member may be repurchased at the sole discretion of FHLBI Management before such indebtedness or other obligations are repaid or otherwise settled.
   
8. All prepayments of obligations maturing after the Effective Date of termination of membership shall be subject to any applicable prepayment fees normally imposed.

C. Cancellation of Withdrawal Notice

1. A member that has filed a notice of voluntary membership withdrawal may cancel that notice at any time prior to the Effective Date of termination by a further written notice to the FHLBI.  The FHLBI may impose a Withdrawal Cancellation Fee on the member in consideration for such cancellation. A member’s Subseries B-2 Stock will then immediately be re-converted to Subseries B-1 Stock.

 2. A member that cancels a notice of voluntary membership withdrawal shall also be required to immediately purchase Capital Stock as needed to meet the member’s then current minimum Stock Requirement, including any additional stock required due to amendments or adjustments made by the Board of Directors pursuant to Section V.C that occurred during the period while the member’s notice of withdrawal was pending.
        
        D.  Readmission to Membership

An institution that has withdrawn from membership or otherwise has had its membership terminated and that has divested all of its shares of Capital Stock may not be readmitted to membership in any FHLBank or acquire any Capital Stock of any FHLBank for a period of five (5) years from the date membership was terminated and all of the Capital Stock was redeemed or repurchased.

VIII. Adoption of Changes to Capital Plan

The Board of Directors shall review the Capital Plan at least annually. The Board of Directors may, from time to time, consider and approve amendments to this Capital Plan.  This consideration and approval includes but is not limited to the issuance of subordinated debt as authorized by Section 11 of the Act (12 U.S.C. § 1431), as amended from time to time, provided that the Finance Agency has determined that subordinated debt can be counted toward the FHLBI’s Total Capital.  Except as provided in Section XIII.C, all amendments must be submitted to and approved by the Finance Agency before such amendments will be effective.  After receipt of approval, such amendments will be effective fifteen (15) days after the mailing or electronic posting of notice to members, unless another date is specified in such notice.

IX. Transition Provisions

The Effective Date of this amended and restated Capital Plan shall be established by a Board of Directors resolution and shall occur within sixty (60) days after the FHLBI’s receipt of the Finance Agency’s approval of the amended and restated Plan.  The FHLBI has made a good faith determination that it will be able to implement this Capital Plan as submitted to the Finance Agency and that it will be in full compliance with the 

                  17

Risk-based Capital Requirement and Total Capital requirement set forth in the Capital Regulations as of the Effective Date.  The following actions are to be taken in order to implement certain changes to the Capital Plan.

A. Activity-based Stock Requirement

        Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Effective Date of the amended Capital Plan, the Board of Directors, by resolution, shall establish the percentages used in determining the Activity-based Stock Requirement for each type of Activity-based Asset within the ranges set forth in Section V.A.3, with such percentages taking effect on the Effective Date.  Thereafter, such percentages may be adjusted pursuant to Section V.C.  The FHLBI shall provide notice of such percentages to shareholders not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the Effective Date.

B. Membership Stock Requirement

        Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Effective Date of the amended Capital Plan, the Board of Directors, by resolution, shall confirm the percentage then used in determining the Membership Stock Requirement, and such percentage shall remain on the Effective Date. Thereafter, such percentages may be adjusted pursuant to Section V.C. The FHLBI shall provide notice of such percentage to shareholders not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the Effective Date.  The Effective Date shall not be a Recalculation Date with respect to shareholders’ Membership Stock Requirements.

X. Retained Earnings Enhancement Implementation and Definitions.

A. Implementation

The provisions of sections X through XIII shall become effective upon, and only upon, the occurrence of the Interim Capital Plan Amendment Implementation Date. Until  the Restriction Termination Date, in the event of any conflict between sections X  through XIII and the remainder of this Capital Plan, the applicable terms of sections  X through XIII shall govern, and shall be interpreted in a manner such that the restrictions set forth therein are supplementary to, and not in lieu of, the requirements of the remainder of this Capital Plan.

“Special Allocation Amount” means the result of: (i) 50 percent of Quarterly Net Income; plus (ii) 50 percent of a positive Adjustment to Prior Net Income for any prior calendar quarter that includes the REFCORP Termination Date, or occurred subsequent to the REFCORP Termination Date, to the 

                  20

extent such adjustment has not yet been made in the current calendar quarter; minus (iii) 50 percent of the absolute value of a negative Adjustment to Prior Net Income for any prior calendar quarter that includes the REFCORP Termination Date, or occurred subsequent to the REFCORP Termination Date, to the extent such adjustment has not yet been made by the current calendar quarter. 

“Stockholder” means: (i) an institution that has been approved for membership in the FHLBI, and has purchased Capital Stock in accordance with the Regulations; (ii) a former member of the FHLBI that continues to own Capital Stock; or (iii) a successor to an entity that was a member of the FHLBI that continues to own Capital Stock.

“Total Capital” means Retained Earnings, the amount paid-in for Class B Stock, the amount of any general allowance for losses, and the amount of other instruments that the FHFA has determined to be available to absorb losses incurred by the FHLBI.

XI. Establishment of Restricted Retained Earnings

A.  Segregation of Account.  

No later than the REFCORP Termination Date, the FHLBI shall establish an account in its official books and records in which to allocate its Restricted Retained Earnings, with such account being segregated on its books and records from the FHLBI’s Retained Earnings that are not Restricted Retained Earnings for purposes of tracking the accumulation of Restricted Retained Earnings and enforcing the restrictions on the use of the Restricted Retained Earnings imposed in the Retained Earnings Capital Plan Amendment.

B.  Funding of Account.

1.  Date on which Allocation Begins

The FHLBI shall allocate to its Restricted Retained Earnings account an amount at least equal to the Regular Allocation Amount beginning on the REFCORP Termination Date.  The FHLBI shall allocate amounts to the Restricted Retained Earnings account only through allocations from its Quarterly Net Income or Adjustments to Prior Net Income occurring on or after the REFCORP Termination Date, but nothing in the Retained Earnings Capital Plan Amendment shall prevent the FHLBI from allocating a greater percentage of its Quarterly Net Income or positive Adjustment to Prior Net Income to its Restricted Retained Earnings account than the percentages set forth in the Retained Earning Capital Plan Amendment.

2. Ongoing Allocation

During any Dividend Restriction Period that occurs before the Allocation Termination Date, the FHLBI shall continue to allocate its Regular Allocation Amount (or when and if required under 

                  21

subsection XI.B.4 below, its Special Allocation Amount) to its Restricted Retained Earnings account.  

3. Treatment of Quarterly Net Losses and Annual Net Losses

In the event the FHLBI sustains a Net Loss for a calendar quarter, the following shall apply: (i) to the extent that its cumulative calendar year-to-date net income is positive at the end of such quarter, the FHLBI may decrease the amount of its Restricted Retained Earnings such that the cumulative addition to the Restricted Retained Earnings account calendar year-to-date at the end of such quarter is equal to 20 percent of the amount of such cumulative calendar year-to-date net income; (ii) to the extent that its cumulative calendar year-to-date net income is negative at the end of such quarter (a) the FHLBI may decrease the amount of its Restricted Retained Earnings account such that the cumulative addition calendar year-to-date to the Restricted Retained Earnings at the end of such quarter is zero, and (b) the FHLBI shall apply any remaining portion of the Net Loss for the calendar quarter first to reduce Retained Earnings that are not Restricted Retained Earnings until such Retained Earnings are reduced to zero, and thereafter may apply any remaining portion of the Net Loss for the calendar quarter to reduce Restricted Retained Earnings; and (iii) for any subsequent calendar quarter in the same calendar year, the FHLBI may decrease the amount of its quarterly allocation to its Restricted Retained Earnings account in that subsequent calendar quarter such that the cumulative addition to the Restricted Retained Earnings account calendar year-to-date is equal to 20 percent of the amount of such cumulative calendar year-to-date net income.

In the event the FHLBI sustains a Net Loss for a calendar year, any such Net Loss first shall be applied to reduce Retained Earnings that are not Restricted Retained Earnings until such Retained Earnings are reduced to zero, and thereafter any remaining portion of the Net Loss for the calendar year may be applied to reduce Restricted Retained Earnings.

4. Funding at the Special Allocation Amount  

If during a Dividend Restriction Period, the amount of the FHLBI’s Restricted Retained Earnings decreases in any calendar quarter, except as provided in subsections XI.B.3(i) and (ii)(a) above, the FHLBI shall allocate the Special Allocation Amount to its Restricted Retained Earnings account beginning at the following calendar quarter-end (except as provided in the last sentence of this subsection).  Thereafter, the FHLBI shall continue to allocate the Special Allocation Amount to its Restricted Retained Earnings account until the cumulative difference between: (i) the allocations made using the Special Allocation Amount; and (ii) the allocations that would have been made if the Regular Allocation Amount applied, is equal to the amount of the prior decrease in the amount of its Restricted Retained Earnings account arising from the application of subsection XI.B.3(ii)(b).  If at any calendar quarter-end the allocation of the Special Allocation Amount would result in a cumulative allocation in excess of such prior decrease in the amount of Restricted Retained Earnings: (i) the FHLBI may allocate such percentage of Quarterly Net Income to the Restricted Retained Earnings account that shall exactly restore the amount of the prior decrease, plus the amount of the Regular Allocation Amount for that quarter; and (ii) the FHLBI in subsequent quarters shall revert to allocating at least the Regular Allocation Amount.

5. Release of Restricted Retained Earnings

If the FHLBI’s RREM decreases from time to time due to fluctuations in the FHLBI’s Total Consolidated Obligations, amounts in the Restricted Retained Earnings account in excess of 150 percent of the RREM may be released by the FHLBI from the restrictions otherwise imposed on 

                  22

such amounts pursuant to the provisions of the Retained Earnings Capital Plan Amendment, and reallocated to its Retained Earnings that are not Restricted Retained Earnings.  Until the Restriction Termination Date, the FHLBI may not otherwise reallocate amounts in its Restricted Retained Earnings account (provided that a reduction in the Restricted Retained Earnings account following a Net Loss pursuant to subsection XI.B.3 is not a reallocation).  

6. No Effect on Rights of Shareholders as Owners of Retained Earnings

In the event of the liquidation of the FHLBI, or a taking of the FHLBI’s Retained Earnings by any future federal action, nothing in the Retained Earnings Capital Plan Amendment shall change the rights of the holders of the FHLBI’s Class B Stock that confer ownership of Retained Earnings, including Restricted Retained Earnings, as granted under section 6(h) of the Act.
  

XII. Limitation on Dividends, Stock Purchase and Stock Redemption

A. General Rule on Dividends.

From the REFCORP Termination Date through the Restriction Termination Date, the FHLBI may not pay Dividends, or otherwise reallocate funds (except as expressly provided in subsection XI.B. 5, and further provided that a reduction in the Restricted Retained Earnings account following a Net Loss pursuant to subsection XI.B.3 is not a reallocation), out of Restricted Retained Earnings.  During a Dividend Restriction Period, the FHLBI may not pay Dividends out of the amount of Quarterly Net Income required to be allocated to Restricted Retained Earnings.

B. Limitations on Repurchase and Redemption.

From the REFCORP Termination Date through the Restriction Termination Date, the FHLBI shall not engage in a repurchase or redemption transaction if following such transaction the FHLBI’s Total Capital as reported to the FHFA falls below the FHLBI’s aggregate paid-in amount of Class B Stock.

XIII. Termination of Retained Earnings Capital Plan Amendment Obligations

A. Notice of Automatic Termination Event.

1. Action by FHLBanks

If the FHLBI desires to assert that an Automatic Termination Event has occurred (or will occur on the effective date of a change in a statute or the Regulations), the FHLBI shall provide prompt written notice to all of the other FHLBanks (and provide a copy to the FHFA) identifying the specific statutory or regulatory change that is the basis for the assertion.  For the purposes of this section, ‘prompt written notice’ means notice delivered no later than 90 calendar days subsequent to: (1) the date the specific statutory change takes effect; or (2) the date an interim final rule or final rule effecting the specific regulatory change is published in the Federal Register.  

If within 60 calendar days of transmission of such written notice to all of the other FHLBanks, at least 2/3 of the then existing FHLBanks (including the FHLBI) execute a Declaration of Automatic Termination concurring that the specific statutory or regulatory change identified in the written notice constitutes an Automatic Termination Event, then the Declaration of Automatic 

                  23

Termination shall be delivered by the FHLBI to the FHFA within 10 calendar days of the date that the Declaration of Automatic Termination is executed.  After the expiration of a 60 calendar day period that begins when the Declaration of Automatic Termination is delivered to the FHFA, or is delivered to the FHFA by another FHLBank pursuant to the terms of its capital plan, an Automatic Termination Event Declaration Date shall be deemed to occur (except as provided in subsection XIII.A.3).

If a Declaration of Automatic Termination concurring that the specific statutory or regulatory change identified in the written notice constitutes an Automatic Termination Event has not been executed by at least the required 2/3 of the then existing FHLBanks within 60 calendar days of transmission of such notice to all of the other FHLBanks, the FHLBI may request a determination from the FHFA that the specific statutory or regulatory change constitutes an Automatic Termination Event.  Such request must be filed with the FHFA within 10 calendar days after the expiration of the 60 calendar day period that begins upon transmission of the written notice of the basis of the assertion to all of the other FHLBanks.  

2. Action by FHFA

The FHLBI may request a determination from the FHFA that a specific statutory or regulatory change constitutes an Automatic Termination Event, and may claim that an Automatic Termination Event has occurred, or will occur, with respect to a specific statutory or regulatory change only if the FHLBI has complied with the time limitations and procedures of subsection XIII.A.1.    

If within 60 calendar days after the Bank delivers such a request to the FHFA, or another FHLBank delivers such a request pursuant to its capital plan, the FHFA provides the requesting FHLBank with a written determination that a specific statutory or regulatory change is an Automatic Termination Event, then an Automatic Termination Event Declaration Date shall be deemed to occur as of the expiration of such 60 calendar day period (except as provided in subsection XIII.A.3).  The date of the Automatic Termination Event Declaration Date shall be as of the expiration of such 60 calendar day period (except as provided in subsection XIII.A.3) no matter on which day prior to the expiration of the 60 calendar day period the FHFA has provided its written determination.  

If the FHFA fails to make a determination within 60 calendar days after an FHLBank delivers such request to the FHFA, then an Automatic Termination Event Declaration Date shall be deemed to occur as of the date of the expiration of such 60 calendar day period (except as provided in subsection XIII.A.3); provided, however, that the FHFA may make a written request for information from the requesting FHLBank, and toll such 60 calendar day period from the date that the FHFA transmits its request until that FHLBank delivers to the FHFA information responsive to its request.  

If within 60 calendar days after an FHLBank delivers to the FHFA a request for determination that a specific statutory or regulatory change constitutes an Automatic Termination Event (or such longer period if the 60 calendar day period is tolled pursuant to the preceding sentence), the FHFA provides that FHLBank with a written determination that a specific statutory or regulatory change is not an Automatic Termination Event, then an Automatic Termination Event shall not have occurred with respect to such change.

3. Proviso as to Occurrence of Automatic Termination Event Declaration Date

                  24

In no case under this subsection XIII.A may an Automatic Termination Event Declaration Date be deemed to occur prior to: (1) the date the specific statutory change takes effect; or (2) the date an interim final rule or final rule effecting the specific regulatory change is published in the Federal Register.

B. Notice of Voluntary Termination.

If the FHLBanks terminate the Agreement, then the FHLBanks shall provide written notice to the FHFA that the FHLBanks have voted to terminate the Agreement. 

C. Consequences of an Automatic Termination Event or Vote to Terminate the Agreement.

1. Consequences of Voluntary Termination

In the event the FHLBanks deliver written notice to the FHFA that the FHLBanks have voted to terminate the Agreement, then without any further action by the FHLBI or the FHFA: (i) the date of delivery of such notice shall be an Allocation Termination Date; and (ii) one year from the date of delivery of such notice shall be a Restriction Termination Date.  

2. Consequences of an Automatic Termination Event Declaration Date

If an Automatic Termination Event Declaration Date has occurred, then without further action by the FHLBI or the FHFA: (i) the date of the Automatic Termination Event Declaration Date shall be an Allocation Termination Date; and (ii) one year from the date of the Automatic Termination Event Declaration Date shall be a Restriction Termination Date.  

3. Deletion of Operative Provisions of Retained Earnings Capital Plan Amendment

Without any further action by the FHLBI or the FHFA, on the Restriction Termination Date, sections X through XIII of this Capital Plan shall be deleted.

Approved by the Board of Directors of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis on June 28, 2002, as amended July 24, 2008, March 13, 2009, May 19, 2011 and June 28, 2019; and as approved by the Federal Housing Finance Board on July 10, 2002, with amendments approved by the Federal Housing Finance Board on October 9, 2002, and with amendments approved by the Federal Housing Finance Agency on March 6, 2009, May 18, 2009, August 5, 2011 and December 13, 2019.

Exhibit 4.3

Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis

Description of Securities Registered Under Section 12 of the Exchange Act

The terms of the Bank’s Class B stock are interwoven with our capital requirements and with the terms of our Capital Plan, which first became effective on January 2, 2003. The Capital Plan (as amended) is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 4.1 of the Bank’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 10, 2020. The Capital Plan is available on our website at www.fhlbi.com. Summaries of the capital requirements and of relevant portions of the Capital Plan are provided below after the description of the material terms of the Class B Stock that follows in order to aid the reader in understanding the background of the Class B Stock. 
Description of Class B Stock Pursuant to 17 C.F.R. 229.601 and 17 C.F.R. 229.202
We have only one class of capital stock, Class B Stock, which is authorized, issued, and outstanding. Class B Stock is issued under our Capital Plan, which was approved by the Federal Housing Finance Board (predecessor to the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“Finance Agency”)) on July 10, 2002, amended on October 9, 2002, and implemented on January 2, 2003, was further amended effective September 5, 2011, and was further amended effective February 10, 2020. Class B Stock has a par value of $100 per share and may be issued, redeemed, and repurchased only at par value. Class B Stock is held in book-entry form only and is transferable only upon our written approval, which we may withhold in our sole discretion. 
The Class B Stock has two subseries, Subseries B-1 and Subseries B-2. We are authorized under our Capital Plan to issue additional Class B Stock, at par value of $100 per share, to our members from time to time. Participation in such offerings is voluntary on the part of our members, on terms and conditions to be determined by our board, but such offerings may not discriminate in favor of or against any member. 
Terms Relating to Class B Stock 
Conversion 
Shares of Subseries B-1 Stock are converted into shares of Subseries B-2 Stock in the event that any of the following four conditions apply: 
•if a member withdraws from membership;
•the member is the non-surviving entity in a merger;
•if a financial institution’s membership is terminated involuntarily or as a result of the relocation; or
•if the stock becomes subject tot a redemption request by a member.
The only difference between the Subseries B-1 Stock and the Subseries B-2 Stock is that the dividend rate for the Subseries B-2 Stock is lower than the dividend rate for the Subseries B-1 Stock, as described below. 
Liquidation Rights 
Subject to the authority of the Finance Agency governing liquidations, if the Bank is liquidated, following the retirement of all of our outstanding liabilities to our creditors, all shares of Class B Stock must be redeemed at par value, or if sufficient funds are not available to accomplish the redemption in full of the Class B Stock at par value, then such redemption will occur on a pro rata basis among all holders of the Class B Stock. Following the redemption in full of all Class B Stock, any remaining assets will be distributed to the holders of Class B Stock in the proportion that each member’s shares of Class B Stock bears to the total Class B Stock outstanding immediately prior to such liquidation. 

1

Effect of Consolidation or Merger 
Mergers and consolidations of Federal Home Loan Banks (“FHLBanks(s)”) are governed by the Federal Home Loan Bank Act (“Bank Act”) and Finance Agency regulations. In the event we consolidate or merge with another FHLBank, our members will become members of the surviving FHLBank. In such event, our members will either have their existing shares of Class B Stock converted into equivalent stock in the surviving FHLBank, or they will receive such other consideration as is provided in any plan of merger or consolidation or in any lawful order of the Finance Agency. If another FHLBank is merged into us and we are the surviving FHLBank, members of the non-surviving FHLBank will immediately become our members and the outstanding stock of the non-surviving FHLBank will be converted into shares of our Class B Stock, or they will receive such other consideration as is provided in any plan of merger or as provided in any lawful order of the Finance Agency. 
Transfer of Stock 
Shares of Class B Stock held by a member in excess of the amount the member needs to meet its membership and activity-based investment requirements (“Excess Stock”) may be transferred to another member only upon our prior written approval, which may be withheld in our sole discretion. Such transfers must be made at par value and are effective upon being recorded in our stock records. Transferred shares that were subject to a notice of redemption will have the notice automatically cancelled upon the transfer, but no cancellation fee will be charged. All transfers shall be undertaken in accordance with Finance Agency regulations.
Voting Rights 
All members holding shares of Class B Stock are entitled to vote for the election of directors pursuant to the Federal Home Loan Bank Act (“Bank Act”) and Finance Agency regulations establishing the election procedure. Our district is comprised of the states of Indiana and Michigan. The election and voting for independent director seats are conducted district-wide. Member directors are elected by members in Indiana and Michigan separately as determined by the Finance Agency in its annual determination of the total number of directorships established for the Bank and its annual allocation of  member director seats per state.   Member director seats can be added or taken away by the Finance Agency based upon increases or decreases in the amount of outstanding stock required to be held by the members in each state.The stock required to be held (“Stock Requirement”) by each member is the greater of (i) its Membership Stock Requirement, i.e., the amount that the member must hold based on its total of mortgage assets held (“Total Mortgage Assets”), and (ii) its Activity-based Stock Requirement, i.e., the amount needed to support Advances and other credit products used (“Activity-based Assets”). In the election of directors, members have one vote for each share of stock they hold to meet their Stock Requirement but are subject to caps on the number of shares they can vote, based upon the average number of shares of stock that are required to be held by all members in the applicable state. Members are not entitled to vote any shares of Excess Stock in the election of directors. The stock calculations required to determine the amount of shares eligible to be voted in each election are based upon each member’s stock holdings on December 31 of the prior year. There are no voting preferences associated with any class or subseries of Class B Stock.
Classification of Board of Directors / Cumulative Voting
Each member of the Bank’s board of directors is elected to a four-year term, and the directors’ terms are staggered. In general, a director may serve no more than three consecutive four-year terms. There are no classes of directors, and there is no cumulative voting.
Liability for Capital Assessments 
As more particularly described below, we may increase the minimum Stock Requirement of members: 
•within certain ranges specified in the Capital Plan; and
•outside such ranges with approval from the Finance Agency.

2

Such an increase could result in a member being required to purchase additional stock or reduce its volume of activity in order to come into compliance with the new requirements. The failure of a member to comply with the new requirements would result in its access to products and services being suspended until the requirements are met, and failure to comply within ten business days may lead to the possible termination of its membership. 
Dividends 
Dividends may be, but are not required to be, paid on our Class B Stock. Historically, the board has declared dividends quarterly. Dividends, if declared, may be paid in either cash or stock, or a combination thereof. Dividends on the Subseries B-2 Stock are equal to 80% of any declared dividend on the Subseries B-1 Stock. The calculation of the dividend to be paid is based on the average number of shares of each type held by the member during the quarter. 
No dividend may be declared or paid if we are, or would be as a result of such payment, in violation of our minimum capital requirements. Moreover, we may not pay dividends if any principal or interest due on our Consolidated Obligations issued to provide funds to us has not been paid in full or, under certain circumstances, if we fail to satisfy liquidity requirements under applicable Finance Agency regulations. Dividends are non-cumulative and, if declared, are paid only from current net earnings or retained earnings, and are subject to the application of our capital markets policy. 
Redemption and Repurchase 
As more particularly described below, Class B Stock is redeemable upon written notice from the member, subject to certain restrictions discussed below, after a period of five years (“Redemption Period”) from the date of such notice. In addition, Class B Excess Stock may be repurchased by the Bank under certain circumstances. If a member at any time holds Excess Stock, we may, in our discretion, repurchase such Excess Stock at par value upon fifteen days’ notice to the member. A member may identify, by date of acquisition, the shares of Excess Stock to be repurchased. A member may also request that we repurchase Excess Stock, resulting from the receipt of stock dividends or otherwise; however, the Bank retains the discretion as to whether or not to repurchase shares of Excess Stock from a member. 
A member may file a written request for us to redeem all or part of its Class B Stock. The Redemption Period will commence on the date of our receipt of the written notice. The redemption notice must identify the specific shares of Class B Stock that are to be redeemed by date of acquisition and amount. If the redemption notice fails to identify the particular shares to be redeemed, the member will be deemed to have requested redemption of the most recently acquired shares that are not already subject to a pending redemption request. At the end of the Redemption Period, only Class B Stock that has been held for at least five years and that is then Excess Stock can be used to fill the redemption request. A member may not have more than one notice of redemption outstanding at one time for the same shares of Class B Stock. 
If a redemption request is filed with respect to Excess Stock, the member may cancel the redemption request at any time without penalty. If a member files a request to redeem stock that is required to meet the member’s Stock Requirement, the stock is immediately converted to Subseries B-2 Stock and receives the lower dividend until (i) the stock is redeemed, (ii) the redemption notice is cancelled, or (iii) the stock is no longer needed as part of the member’s Stock Requirement and becomes Excess Stock. If the stock becomes Excess Stock during the Redemption Period, it will be reconverted to Subseries B-1 Stock until it is redeemed or until it is needed again to meet the member’s Stock Requirement. If the redemption notice is cancelled, the member may be required to pay a $500 redemption cancellation fee and the stock is reconverted to Subseries B-1 Stock. 
At the end of the Redemption Period, the member receives the par value of the stock being redeemed, unless the stock is then needed to support the member’s Stock Requirement. All outstanding Activity-based Assets that are supported by the stock subject to the redemption request must be paid in full before the stock will be redeemed. If a member is unable to meet its Stock Requirement within five business days of the end of the Redemption Period, the redemption request is automatically cancelled as to the amount of stock needed to meet the member’s Stock Requirement, and a $500 redemption cancellation fee may be applied. Any shares of Excess Stock included in the redemption request will be redeemed. 
3

If, at any time, the Redemption Period for stock owned by more than one member has expired, either with respect to stock subject to a redemption notice or stock of a terminated member, and if the redemption of such stock would cause us to fail to be in compliance with any of our minimum capital requirements, then we will fulfill such redemptions as we are able to accomplish from time to time. In that event, we would begin with such redemptions as to which the redemption period expired on the earliest date and fulfill such redemptions relating to that date on a pro rata basis from time to time until fully satisfied. Thereafter, we would fulfill such redemptions as to which the redemption period expired on the next earliest date in the same manner and continue in that order until all of such redemptions as to which the redemption period has expired have been fulfilled. 
If a member has one or more redemption requests outstanding at a time when we choose to repurchase Excess Stock, we will first repurchase the most recently acquired shares of Class B Stock of a member that are Excess Stock and that are not subject to a redemption request, followed by Excess Stock that is subject to a redemption request that has been outstanding for the shortest period of time. Then, to the extent necessary, we will repurchase Excess Stock that is subject to a redemption request that has been outstanding for the next shortest period of time and continue in that order, to the extent necessary, until the member no longer has any Excess Stock, or we have repurchased all of the Excess Stock of the member that we had intended to repurchase. 
Any stock that we redeem or repurchase will be retired and will no longer be deemed to be outstanding stock. 
Withdrawal or Termination of Membership 
Any member may voluntarily withdraw from membership upon written notice to us. Further, an institution’s membership may be involuntarily terminated in accordance with regulations of the Finance Agency in effect from time to time, or its membership may be terminated (i) by operation of law if it is the non-surviving entity in a consolidation or merger with a non-member, another member of the Bank, or an institution outside our district, or (ii) if it relocates outside our district. 
Any member that withdraws from membership or that has had its membership terminated may not be readmitted as a member of any FHLBank for a period of five years from the date membership was terminated and all of the member’s stock was redeemed or repurchased. A transfer of membership without interruption between two FHLBanks will not constitute a termination of membership. 
Redemptions of stock of a withdrawing or terminated member will occur in accordance with the redemption provisions discussed in the previous section. However, a voluntarily withdrawing member may continue to do business with the Bank during the Redemption Period of the stock held by the member at the time of its notice of withdrawal. If such business requires that member to purchase additional stock, different Redemption Periods will apply to the newly-purchased stock. 
Capital Requirements and the Capital Plan 
Regulatory Capital Requirements 
The Bank Act and Finance Agency regulations require that each FHLBank maintain permanent capital and total capital in sufficient amounts to comply with specified, minimum risk-based capital and leverage capital requirements. Permanent capital is defined as the amount we receive for our Class B Stock (including mandatorily redeemable stock) plus our retained earnings. Permanent capital must at least equal our risk-based capital requirement, which is defined as the sum of credit risk, market risk, and operations risk capital requirements. Each of these risks is measured in accordance with Finance Agency regulations. Total capital is defined as permanent capital plus a general allowance for losses plus any other amounts determined by the Finance Agency to be available to absorb losses. Total capital must equal at least 4% of total assets. Leverage capital is defined as 150% of permanent capital plus the sum of all other components of capital. Leverage capital must equal at least 5% of total assets. From time to time, for reasons of safety and soundness, the Finance Agency may require one or more of the individual FHLBanks to maintain more permanent capital or total capital than is required by the regulations.

4

The Bank’s authority to redeem or repurchase Class B Stock is subject to a number of regulatory limitations. Specifically, we will not redeem any stock, (notwithstanding the expiration of the Redemption Period), or repurchase any stock: (i) if we are not in compliance with each of our capital requirements; (ii) if the redemption or repurchase would cause us to fail to meet our capital requirements; or (iii) absent approval of the Finance Agency, if we determine or the Finance Agency determines that we have incurred or are likely to incur losses that will result in a charge against our capital. 
We also may, subject to certain conditions, suspend redemptions of Class B Stock if we reasonably believe that continued redemption of stock (i) would cause us to fail to meet our minimum capital requirements; (ii) would prevent us from maintaining adequate capital against potential risk that may not be adequately reflected in our minimum capital requirements; or (iii) would otherwise prevent us from operating in a safe and sound manner. During the period of any such suspension of redemptions, we may not repurchase any stock without the approval of the Finance Agency and may be required by the Finance Agency to re-institute the redemption of Class B Stock. In addition, if we reasonably determine that the stock subject to redemption must be maintained as collateral for a member’s then-outstanding obligations, we may redeem the stock but will maintain the proceeds in a collateral account until they are no longer needed as collateral.
Stock Investment by Members 
Under our Capital Plan, members are required to purchase and hold Class B Stock based upon the greater of the member’s Membership Stock Requirement or the member’s Activity-based Stock Requirement, with a minimum investment of $1,000. The Capital Plan currently provides for the calculation of the Membership Stock Requirement to be based upon 1.0% of Total Mortgage Assets. In no event is a member required to purchase Class B Stock in excess of $35,000,000 aggregate par value based upon the member’s Total Mortgage Assets. The Activity-based Stock Requirement is currently set at the total of the following percentages of a member’s Activity-based Assets: 
•Credit Products:
•Advances: 4.5%;
•Lines of Credit: 4.5%;
•Standby Letters of Credit: 0.1%;
•Derivative Contracts: 4.5%; and
•Acquired Member Assets: 0.0%.
However, the Capital Plan authorizes our board, in its discretion, to change these percentages within the following respective ranges. 
•Total Mortgage Assets: 0.75 to 1.25%;
•Credit Products: 
•Advances: 1.0% to 6.0%;
•Lines of Credit: 1.0% to 6.0%;
•Standby Letters of Credit: 0.1% to 6.0%;
•Derivative Contracts: 1.0% to 6.0%; and
•Acquired Member Assets: 0.0% to 6.0%.
Changes in the Activity-based Stock Requirement percentages may, at the discretion of our board, be applied prospectively only as to Activity-based Assets acquired after the date of the notice of the change. Changes outside these ranges would require prior approval from the Finance Agency. An increase in any of the percentages would generally require members to purchase additional shares of Class B Stock. 

5

Each member’s Stock Requirement will change from time to time based upon changes in a member’s Total Mortgage Assets or Activity-based Assets. Total Mortgage Assets are calculated annually on or about April 1, based upon a member’s financial statements as of December 31 of the prior year. The Activity-based Stock Requirement will be recalculated whenever a member enters into an Activity-based Asset. To the extent that a member does not hold sufficient Excess Stock, the member must comply with any associated requirement to purchase additional Class B Stock at the time a new Activity-based Asset is entered into and for as long as the Activity-based Asset is outstanding. We also have the right to recalculate a member’s Stock Requirement at any time, using the most recent financial statements and account balance information available to the Bank at the date of recalculation. If a member fails to purchase the additional stock necessary to comply with a recalculated Stock Requirement, its access to our products and services will be suspended until such requirements are met, and any failure to make such stock purchases within 10 business days from the required purchase date may result in involuntary termination of membership. 
If our board adjusts the percentages used in calculating the Stock Requirement, the adjustment will go into effect not less than 15 days after declaration by the board and notice to the members. Any member that fails to comply with the new Stock Requirement on the date it becomes effective will not be able to access our products or services of the Bank until such requirements are met and, if the failure continues for at least 10 business days, the member may be involuntarily terminated. Members that have filed a notice of withdrawal from membership or that have had their membership otherwise terminated are not required to meet any increases in the Stock Requirement based upon changes in the Membership Stock Requirement percentage or in the Activity-based Stock Requirement percentages while the notice is pending or subsequent to such termination unless new Activity-based Assets are acquired. Changes in the Activity-based Stock Requirement percentages will be applied to a member’s outstanding and new Activity-based Assets (or if the percentage change was prospective only, then only to new Activity-based Assets).
