November 29, 2006

Dear FHLBank Member:

FHLBank Topeka is pleased to announce the results of the 2006 board of directors’ election. In Kansas, Bruce A. Schriefer, president and CEO of Bankers’ Bank of Kansas, NA, Wichita, Kan., won 53 percent of the vote. In Oklahoma, James R. Hamby, president and CEO of Vision Bank, NA, Ada, Okla., won 53 percent of the vote. Below is a detailed tally of the election results. The two will each serve three-year terms beginning Jan. 1, 2007. There were no open positions for the state of Nebraska and, therefore, no election.  

Mr. Schriefer joined Bankers’ Bank of Kansas in 1996. He is past director of the Kansas Bankers Association, past chairman of Bankers’ Bank Council and past director of Independent Community Bankers’ Association. He currently serves on committees for the Kansas Bankers Association and Community Bankers Association. He also is a member of the American Bankers Association Government Relations Council and the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City Customer Advisory Committee.  

Mr. Hamby has been with Vision Bank since 1983. He is a past board member of the Oklahoma Bankers Association where he currently serves on the Government Relations Committee. He is a past member of the American Bankers Association Community Bankers Council and a current member of the ABA FHLBank Committee. He also served on the FHLBank Topeka board of directors previously.  

Questions about the election results can be directed to Patrick C. Doran, senior vice president and general counsel, at 785.438.6054, or pat.doran@fhlbtopeka.com.
