| 4 Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Statements, Data, and Adjusted Information Forward-looking statements: This presentation, including the preliminary and unaudited first quarter 2012 highlights herein, uses forward-looking statements within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are based on the Bank’s expectations as of the date hereof. The words “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” and similar statements and their plural, negative, past, and progressive forms as well as statements about expected developments for housing GSE reform, economic changes, housing sector projections, advances balances, and investment risk are used in this presentation to identify some, but not all, of such forward-looking statements. The Bank cautions that, by their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the application of accounting standards relating to, among other things, the amortization of discounts and premiums on financial assets, financial liabilities, and certain fair-value gains and losses; hedge accounting of derivatives and underlying financial instruments; the fair values of financial instruments, including investment securities and derivatives; and other-than-temporary impairment of investment securities, in addition to instability in the credit and debt markets, economic conditions (including effects on, among other things, mortgage-backed securities), changes in interest rates, and prepayment spreads on mortgage assets. The Bank does not undertake to update any forward-looking statement herein or that may be made from time to time on behalf of the Bank. Data: Some data set forth herein is unaudited.
