    Optional Make-Whole Redemption:   

    The Bank may redeem the 2028 Fixed-to-Floating Rate Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time prior to September 15, 2027 (the date that is one year prior to the Maturity Date) (such date, the “2028 Par Call Date”), at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

     

    (1)   (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the 2028 Treasury Rate plus 10 basis points less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and

     

    (2)   100% of the principal amount of the 2028 Fixed-to-Floating Rate Notes to be redeemed,

     

    plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

     

    “2028 Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by the Bank in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

     

    The 2028 Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Bank after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third business day preceding the redemption date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily)—H.15” (or any successor designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading). In determining the 2028 Treasury Rate, the Bank shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the redemption date to the 2028 Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate to the 2028 Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date.

     

    6


       If on the third business day preceding the redemption date H.15 or any successor designation or publication is no longer published, the Bank shall calculate the 2028 Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second business day preceding such redemption date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the 2028 Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the 2028 Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the 2028 Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the 2028 Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the 2028 Par Call Date, the Bank shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the 2028 Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the 2028 Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Bank shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the 2028 Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.
    Optional Par Call Redemption:    The Bank may redeem the 2028 Fixed-to-Floating Rate Notes at its option (i) in whole, but not in part, on September 15, 2027 (the date that is one year prior to the Maturity Date) or (ii) in whole, or in part, at any time and from time to time on or after August 16, 2028 (the date that is 30 days prior to the Maturity Date), in each case, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2028 Fixed-to-Floating Rate Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date. The Bank will provide written notice to the registered holders of the 2028 Fixed-to-Floating Rate Notes of any redemption not more than 30 nor less than 5 calendar days prior to the redemption date.
    Tax Redemption:    The Bank may also redeem the 2028 Fixed-to-Floating Rate Notes, in whole but not in part, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount of such 2028 Fixed-to-Floating Rate Notes together with accrued and unpaid interest on such 2028 Fixed-to-Floating Rate Notes to the date fixed for redemption under the circumstances described in “Description of the Notes We May Offer—Redemption at the Option of the Bank; No Sinking Fund—Tax Redemption” in the Prospectus Supplement.
