On December 12, 2014, the board of directors of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (the "Bank") elected Suzanne DeFerie to fill the vacant member directorship designated for North Carolina, effective January 1, 2015. Ms. DeFerie currently serves as President and Chief Executive Officer of Asheville Savings Bank, SSB, located in Asheville, North Carolina. She will serve on the audit, enterprise risk and operations, executive, and housing and community investment committees. Her term will expire on December 31, 2016.

The Bank is a cooperative and conducts business primarily with its members, who are required to own capital stock in the Bank as a prerequisite to transacting certain business with the Bank. Subject to the Federal Home Loan Bank Act and Federal Housing Finance Agency regulations, the Bank also issues consolidated obligations through the Office of Finance, maintains a portfolio of short-term and long-term investments, enters into derivative transactions, and provides certain cash management and other services, in each case, with members, housing associates, or other third parties of which directors may serve as officers or directors. All such transactions are made in the ordinary course of the Bank's business and are subject to the same Bank policies as transactions with the Bank's members, housing associates, and third parties generally.






The Bank will compensate Ms. DeFerie in accordance with the Bank's Directors' Compensation Policy. She will also be entitled to participate in the Bank's Non-qualified Deferred Compensation Plan, under which each Bank director has the opportunity to defer all or a portion of the amount of his or her compensation.
