FHLBank San Francisco
2012 PRESIDENT’S INCENTIVE PLAN


PLAN PURPOSE
To optimize individual and Bank performance in accomplishing Board-approved goals and objectives.

PLAN OBJECTIVES
To motivate the Bank President to exceed individual and Bank goals that support the Bank's mission and strategic plan. To attract and retain an outstanding executive by providing a competitive total compensation program, including an annual incentive award opportunity.

ELIGIBILITY
The 2012 participant is the Bank President.

The Bank President must be employed by the Bank through December 31, 2012 to be eligible for an incentive award under the 2012 plan. A Bank President hired, promoted, or who takes a leave of absence during the plan year is eligible to participate on a pro-rata basis. A Bank President hired or promoted on or after October 1st may be eligible to participate during the current plan year at the discretion of the Board.

INCENTIVE GOALS AND MEASURES

Incentive Goals
For the Bank President there are individual and Bank goals, which are weighted. The individual goal(s) support the Bank-wide goals (See 2012 Short-Term Incentive Plan Goals and Measures) and objectives.

The three Bank goals for 2012 are:

1.
2012 Risk Management Goal: Complete the 2012 Enterprise Risk Management Governance Program Deliverables.

2.
2012 Franchise Enhancement Goal: Position the Bank and the FHLBank System to remain an integral component of the changing housing and financial services markets. Continue to meet the Bank's mission objectives within these markets as they are currently structured, but also influence and adapt to structural changes in those markets.

3.
2012 Community Investment Goal: Support and promote the Bank's Affordable Housing Program and Community Investment Programs.

Incentive Goal Achievement Measures
The plan rewards levels of goal achievement are as follows:
Achievement Level
Measure Definition
Far Exceeds

The most optimistic achievement level that far exceeds expected performance.

Exceeds

An optimistic achievement level that exceeds expected performance.

Meets

Performance that is expected under the Bank's Plan.

Threshold

Minimum level of performance that must be achieved for awards to be paid.






Actual achievement of Bank goals is subject to adjustment for changes resulting from changes in financial strategies or policies, any significant change in Bank membership, as well as other factors determined by the Board. Impacts of OTTI credit charges are excluded from the Meets achievement level and measurement of performance for the Adjusted Return on Capital Spread component of the Franchise Enhancement Goal. Impacts of dividend benchmark variances to plan are also excluded from the measurement of Adjusted Return on Capital Spread performance.

AWARD DETERMINATION AND OPPORTUNITY
Any award will be based on success in achieving the individual and Bank goals, and on the overall performance. At yearend, accomplishments will be assessed and a percentage of achievement will be determined for each goal and any award determination will be at the discretion of the Board.

For each goal, the percentage of achievement will be multiplied by the applicable weights. Each weighted achievement will then be added to determine the total weighted achievement. The basis for any award opportunity for the participant is total weighted achievement. Total weighted achievement from Threshold achievement level (75-99%) is below the Meets achievement level and, therefore, results in an award less than one granted for achieving the Meets achievement level. Total weighted achievement below the Threshold achievement level normally will not result in an incentive award. The Board of Directors has full discretion to modify any and all incentive payments. Incentive compensation reductions may be made, but are not limited to the following circumstances: (i) if errors or omissions result in material revisions to the Bank's financial results, information submitted to a regulatory or a reporting agency, or information used to determine incentive compensation payouts; (ii) if information submitted to a regulatory or a reporting agency is untimely; or, (iii) if the Bank does not make appropriate progress in the timely remediation of examination, monitoring, or other supervisory findings and matters requiring attention.

APPROVAL OF INCENTIVE AWARDS
The incentive award is approved by the Board of Directors prior to payment. The Board of Directors has full discretion to approve any award, including an award for achievement below Threshold. Awards will be considered by the Board of Directors at the January 2013 Board meeting or as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable.

PLAN ADMINISTRATION AND IMPLEMENTATION
The Board of Directors oversees the administration and interpretation of the Plan.
