Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders
On December 11, 2008, the Board of Directors of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas (“Bank”) adopted an amendment to the Bank’s capital plan. The Bank’s capital plan defines the rights of the holders of the Bank’s Class B Capital Stock, $100 par value per share (“Class B Capital Stock”). Pursuant to the regulations of the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“Finance Agency”), the Bank cannot implement any amendment to its capital plan without Finance Agency approval. The Finance Agency approved the amendment to the Bank’s capital plan on March 6, 2009.
Under the Bank’s capital plan, members are required to maintain an investment in Class B Capital Stock equal to the sum of a membership investment requirement and an activity-based investment requirement. The Bank’s capital plan establishes ranges for each of these investment requirements. The membership investment requirement mandates that each member maintain a minimum investment in Class B Capital Stock equal to a specified percentage of the member’s total assets as of the most recent December 31, subject to a minimum of $1,000 and a maximum of $25 million. The activity-based investment requirement mandates that each member maintain an activity-based investment in Class B Capital Stock in an amount equal to a specified percentage of the outstanding principal balance of all of the member’s advances outstanding plus a specified percentage of the outstanding principal balance of any Acquired Member Assets (i.e., Mortgage Partnership Finance® loans) that are delivered pursuant to commitments executed after September 2, 2003 and retained on the Bank’s balance sheet.
The Bank’s capital plan was amended solely to clarify the membership investment requirement in the event a conservator is appointed for a member of the Bank. If a conservator has been appointed for a member and the Bank terminates the member’s membership, then that member’s membership investment requirement shall be zero. The Bank’s capital plan already contained the same provision related to cases in which a receiver is appointed for a member and the Bank terminates the member’s membership. The amendment does not alter the activity-based investment requirement of the Bank’s capital plan.
The Bank’s capital plan, as amended, is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
