The anticipated rate increases are not a guarantee or a commitment by the FHLBank regarding the payment of any dividends or the level of dividends. Market conditions may be unpredictable and their impact on FHLBank’s results of operations and financial condition, as well as any changes in applicable regulatory or other requirements, may affect FHLBank’s ability to declare dividends or to pay dividends at such anticipated rates.

The information being furnished pursuant to Items 7.01 and 9.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and the information contained in Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, and shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
