Expense Reimbursement
The Bank will reimburse Directors for necessary and reasonable travel, subsistence and other related expenses incurred in connection with the performance of their official duties, which may include participation in meetings or activities for which no fee is paid.
For expense reimbursement purposes, Directors’ “official duties” include:

| 2) | Meetings requested by the Federal Housing Finance Agency and Federal Home Loan Bank System committees |
| 3) | Meetings of the Council of Federal Home Loan Banks and its committees |

| 5) | Events attended on behalf of the Bank when requested by the President in consultation with the Chairman |
| 6) | Other events attended on behalf of the Bank with the prior approval of the EEO-Personnel-Compensation Committee of the Board. |
Each Director is responsible for making his or her own travel arrangements to attend meetings for which expenses may be reimbursed.
Expenses reimbursable for Directors are the same as the expenses reimbursable for senior officers under the Bank’s Reimbursement and Travel Expense Policy, except that Directors may not be reimbursed for gift or entertainment expenses.
To be reimbursed for allowable expenses, a Director must complete a statement itemizing the expenses within 30 days of completion of any covered trip or activity. The statement, prepared on the Director’s letterhead, must be submitted to the Bank’s Assistant Corporate Secretary and must include the following information:
