Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers
Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco ("Bank") Director Kenneth R. Harder, an executive vice president of Northern Trust Bank, National Association, Phoenix, Arizona, has informed the Bank that the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC") has consented to the merger of Northern Trust Bank, National Association, Phoenix, Arizona, under the charter of Northern Trust, National Association, and that the merger is currently scheduled to take effect on October 23, 2006. The main office of Northern Trust, National Association, will be in Miami, Florida. Mr. Harder's position on the Bank's Board of Directors is the elected director position currently allocated to Arizona. Under the rules of the Federal Housing Finance Board, Mr. Harder must be an officer or director of a Bank member located in Arizona to be eligible to remain in this position. As of the effective date of the merger, Mr. Harder's position with Northern Trust Bank, National Association, will no longer qualify him fo r a director position on the Board, and under the rules of the Finance Board, the position will become vacant. The Bank's Board of Directors will then be required to select an officer or director of a Bank member located in Arizona to fill the vacant position for the remainder of Mr. Harder's current term, which ends December 31, 2007.
