Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On August 12, 2016, the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (the "Bank") determined that Patrick J. Ward is no longer eligible to serve as a director on the Bank's board of directors as a result of a merger. Mr. Ward previously was elected as a member director designated for Pennsylvania. All member directorships are designated by the Director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency as representing members located in a particular state, and member directorships must be filled by a person who is an officer or director of a member institution located in that state. The member institution of which Mr. Ward was an officer and a director, Penn Liberty Bank, Wayne, Pennsylvania merged into a Delaware financial institution. Based on applicable law, this resulted in Mr. Ward becoming ineligible to continue to serve as a member director for the State of Pennsylvania with a term expiring on December 31, 2017. In accordance with the Federal Home Loan Bank Act, the Bank's board of directors will elect a director to fill the vacancy for this directorship.
