On June 25, 2009, the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago (the “Bank”) received notification from James F. McKenna that he is declining to stand for re-election to the Board of Directors (the “Board”) in the Bank’s 2009 election of directors. Mr. McKenna, who currently serves as the Vice Chairman of the Board, will continue to serve the remainder of his current term, which is scheduled to expire on December 31, 2009.
