Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
On August 3, 2020, the Board of Directors of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas (“Bank”) adopted certain amendments to the Bank’s Capital Plan, subject to approval by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“Finance Agency”) and a member notification requirement. The Finance Agency approved the amendments to the Bank’s Capital Plan on November 4, 2020. On March 17, 2021, the Bank gave notice to its members that the amended Capital Plan will be implemented on April 19, 2021.
The Bank’s Capital Plan was amended primarily to add an activity-based investment requirement for letters of credit. Under the amended Capital Plan, members will be required to maintain an investment in Class B-2 Stock in an amount not less than 0.10 percent of members’ outstanding letters of credit nor more than 2.0 percent of members’ outstanding letters of credit (the “permissible range”), as specified from time to time by the Bank’s Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has authorized an initial capital stock investment requirement of 0.10 percent of members’ outstanding letters of credit. This new investment requirement will apply only to letters of credit that are issued or renewed on and after April 19, 2021. For this purpose, renewals will include amendments that extend the expiration date of a letter of credit.
Other non-substantive changes were made to the Capital Plan including, but not limited to, the deletion of the provisions that related to the exchange, on October 1, 2015, of Class B Stock for Class B-1 Stock and Class B-2 Stock as such provisions were no longer necessary.
The foregoing description of the amendments to the Bank’s Capital Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Capital Plan, as amended, which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
This report contains forward-looking statements with respect to the implementation of the Bank’s amended Capital Plan that reflect current intentions of the Bank with respect to future events and transactions between the Bank and its members. The Bank cautions that forward-looking statements involve risks or uncertainties that may be outside the control of the Bank and that could affect the extent to which a particular objective or prediction is realized within the periods stated. As a result of such risks and uncertainties, undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements. The Bank undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances, or any other reason.
