ARTICLE I
INTRODUCTION
Section 1.1 Purpose. The purpose of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis Incentive Plan (the "Plan") is to attract, retain and motivate employees of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis (the "Bank") and to focus their efforts on continued improvement in the profitability of the Bank while maintaining the Bank's safety and soundness. The Plan is a cash-based incentive plan that provides award opportunities based on achievement of performance goals.
Section 1.2 Effective Date. The "Effective Date" of the Plan is January 1, 2012.
Section 1.3 Administration. The Plan will be administered by an administrative committee (the "Committee") appointed by the Bank's Board of Directors (the "Board"), which initially will be the Human Resources Committee of the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term Committee shall also refer to the Executive Governance Committee of the Board who will administer the Plan with respect to the Bank's Chief Executive Officer. The Committee, from time to time, may adopt any rules and procedures it deems necessary or desirable for the proper and efficient administration of the Plan that are consistent with the terms of the Plan. Any notice or document required to be given or filed with the Committee will be properly given or filed if delivered to or mailed by registered mail, postage paid, to the General Counsel, Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis, 8250 Woodfield Crossing Boulevard, Indianapolis, Indiana 46240.
Section 1.4 Supplements. The provisions of the Plan may be modified by supplements to the Plan with Board approval. The terms and provisions of each supplement are a part of the Plan and supersede any other provisions of the Plan to the extent necessary to update or eliminate any inconsistencies between the supplement and any other Plan provisions. Any substantive supplement to the Plan shall be submitted to the FHFA for non-objection after full review prior to implementation.

ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION
Section 2.1 Eligibility. Any employee of the Bank, hired before October 1st of the calendar year, will become a "Participant" in the Plan for that calendar year, provided the employee is not classified as a "temporary," an "intern," "contract" or "temporary agency" employee, and does not participate in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis Internal Audit Incentive Plan. Level I Participants, as defined in subsection 3.1(c), must have an executed agreement on file with the Bank containing non-solicitation and non-disclosure provisions in a form similar to the form provided in Appendix III to the Plan ("Non-Solicitation Agreement").
Section 2.2 Participation. A designated employee or otherwise eligible employee will become a Participant as of the later of the Effective Date, the employee's date of hire, or the date on or after the Effective Date the employee satisfies the automatic eligibility provisions described in Section 2.1. Any Participant may be removed as an active Participant by the Board effective as of any date.
ARTICLE III
AWARDS AND EXTRAORDINARY OCCURRENCE ADDITIONS/REDUCTIONS
Section 3.1 Awards. At the beginning of each Performance Period (and at such other times as it may designate as to Discretionary Awards), the Board will make an "Award" to eligible Participants. As described in this Article, Awards may be Annual Awards (as defined in subsection 3.3(a)), Deferred Awards (as defined in subsection 3.3(b)), or Discretionary Awards (as defined in subsection 3.1(d)). Each Award (other than Discretionary Awards) will be equal to a percentage of the Participant's annual Compensation, as described in the applicable Appendices for Level I Participants and Level II Participants, multiplied by the achievement level of the applicable Performance Goals (as defined in Section 3.2). "Compensation" means the Participant's annual earned base salary or wages for hours worked, including overtime, and hours paid under the Bank's paid-time-off policies, as applicable, but in any case excluding any bonus, incentive compensation, deferred compensation payments, lump sum payouts for accrued but unused vacation time, or long-term disability insurance payments paid for the
6
current or a prior year. In the event a Participant receives a raise during a calendar year, the Participant's Compensation for the year will reflect the actual wages paid to the Participant for the year.
(a) | Performance Periods. A "Performance Period" is the one-calendar year period over which an Annual Award can be earned and vested pursuant to subsections 3.3(a) and 3.4(a). A "Deferral Performance Period" is the three-calendar year period over which a Deferred Award can be earned and vested pursuant to subsection 3.3(b). A Deferral Performance Period begins on the January 1st immediately following the Performance Period to which such Deferred Award applies. |
(b) | Award Notification. Participants will be notified of an Annual Award, a Deferred Award or Discretionary Award by the Bank by posting the Performance Goals and other necessary terms and conditions applicable to the Annual Award, Deferred Award or Discretionary Award on SharePoint on the Bank's intranet. |
(c) | Award Levels. Participants will receive varying Awards for each Performance Period based on their position with the Bank, as set out in the applicable Appendix. A "Level I Participant" is the Bank's President and Chief Executive Officer, Executive Vice President or Senior Vice President of the Bank or any other individual designated as a Level I Participant by the Board. A "Level II Participant" is any participating employee who is not a Level I Participant. If a Participant receives a new position within the Bank which position changes the Participant's Award eligibility, level, or opportunity, each of the Awards for which Participant is or was eligible during the calendar year will be prorated to reflect the portion of the calendar year during which the Participant was eligible for each such Award, level, or opportunity. |
(d) | Discretionary Award. The President may recommend to the Board that additional discretionary Awards (each, a "Discretionary Award") be made to one or more Level II Participants to address external market considerations, recruiting needs, special projects and extraordinary individual or team efforts. The aggregate pool of funds available for all Discretionary Awards to Level II Participants in a calendar year will be determined by the Board and will not exceed 20 percent of the sum of all Final Awards of any kind paid to Level I Participants during such year. |
The following hypothetical example illustrates how the aggregate pool of funds for Discretionary Awards in a year is determined and awarded:
In year 5, all of the Level I Participants receive: (i) total Annual Awards attributable to year 4 of $700,000, and (ii) total Deferred Awards attributable to year 1 of $600,000. In year 5, the sum of all Final Awards paid to Level I Participants is $1,300,000. Therefore, at any time during year 5, the President may recommend payment of Discretionary Awards to Level II Participants, the sum of which cannot exceed $260,000. The Board may authorize the payment of up to $260,000 for Discretionary Awards. The President may allocate the Discretionary Awards to one or more Level II Participants in her or his discretion, up to the maximum amount authorized by the Board (and in any event less than or equal to $260,000 in total). Payment must be made during year 5.
(e) | Final Award and Extraordinary Occurrences. The "Final Award" is the amount of an earned and vested Annual Award, Deferred Award, or Discretionary Award, as adjusted based upon |
7
the level at which the Performance Goals have been achieved, that is ultimately paid to a Participant under the Plan. The amount of a Final Award may be increased or decreased at the Board's discretion to account for performance that is not captured in the Performance Goals. The Board, in its discretion, may also consider Extraordinary Occurrences when assessing performance results and determining Final Awards. "Extraordinary Occurrences" mean those events that, in the opinion and discretion of the Board, are outside the significant influence of the Participant or the Bank and are likely to have a significant unanticipated effect, whether positive or negative, on the Bank's operating and/or financial results. Examples of Extraordinary Occurrences include, but are not limited to, change in law, regulation, or regulatory policy, or systemic macroeconomic events outside of management's control.
Section 3.2 Performance Goals. "Performance Goals" are the performance factors established by the Board for each Performance Period and Deferral Performance Period, as set forth in the applicable Appendices to the Plan, which are taken into consideration in determining the value of an Annual Award or Deferred Award. The Board may, for any reason or for an Extraordinary Occurrence, adjust the Performance Goals for a Performance Period or Deferral Performance Period to ensure the purposes of the Plan are served. Any such adjustment to Performance Goals shall be submitted to the FHFA for review prior to implementation.
(a) | Establishment of Performance Goals. Performance Goals for Performance Periods, Deferral Performance Periods commencing on and after January 1, 2012, will be communicated to Participants via SharePoint on the Bank's intranet after they have been established by the Board. |
(b) | Achievement Level. Three achievement levels will be defined for each Performance Goal in determining how much of an Award is earned. |
i. | Threshold. The "Threshold" achievement level is the minimum achievement level accepted for a Performance Goal. |
ii. | Target. The "Target" achievement level is the planned achievement level for a Performance Goal. |
iii. | Maximum. The "Maximum" achievement level is achievement that substantially exceeds the Target achievement level. |
The Bank will measure the achievement level for each Performance Goal on a uniform basis, and may assign different values for achievement levels depending on the Participant’s position. The relative weights assigned to achievement levels and to Performance Goals will be set forth in the applicable Appendix.
(c) | Interpolation. Achievement levels that discreetly fall in between Threshold-, Target-, and Maximum, will be interpolated, unless otherwise described in a Performance Goal. |
(d) | Considerations in Establishing Performance Goals. In determining appropriate Performance Goals and the relative weight accorded each Performance Goal, the Committee must: |
8
i. | Balance risk and financial results in a manner that does not encourage Participants to expose the Bank to imprudent risks; |
ii. | Make such determination in a manner designed to ensure that Participants' overall compensation is balanced and not excessive in amount and that the Annual Awards and Deferred Awards are consistent with the Bank's policies and procedures regarding such compensation arrangements; and |
iii. | Monitor the success of the Performance Goals and weighting established in prior years, alone and in combination with other incentive compensation awarded to the same Participants, and make appropriate adjustments in future calendar years as needed so that payments appropriately incentivize Participants and appropriately reflect risk. |
Section 3.3 Earning and Vesting of Awards for Level I Participants.
(a) | Earning and Vesting of Annual Awards. Fifty percent of an Award to a Level I Participant will become earned and vested on the last day of the Performance Period, provided the following requirements are met (an "Annual Award"): |
i. | At least one of the applicable Performance Goals for the Performance Period are satisfied at or above the Threshold level; |
ii. | The Participant received (or, in the case of a Termination of Service described in Section 3.6(b) or Section 3.6(c) or a Reorganization described in Section 3.7, the President-CEO determines that the Participant would have received) an overall weighted performance rating for the Performance Period of 2.5 or greater on a scale of 1-5 (with 5 being the highest rating), or equivalent measure; and |
iii. | The Participant is actively employed on the last day of the Performance Period, unless otherwise provided in Section 3.6 or Section 3.7. |
(b) | Earning and Vesting of Deferred Awards. The remaining 50 percent of an Award to a Level I Participant will become earned and vested on the last day of the Deferral Performance Period, provided the following requirements are met (a "Deferred Award"): |
i. | At least one of the applicable Performance Goals for the Deferral Performance Period are satisfied at or above the Threshold level; |
ii. | The Participant received (or, in the case of a Termination of Service described in Section 3.6(b) or Section 3.6(c) or a Reorganization described in Section 3.7, the President-CEO determines that the Participant would have received) an average overall weighted performance rating for each year of the Deferral Performance Period of 2.5 or greater on a scale of 1-5 (with 5 being the highest rating), or equivalent measure; and |
iii. | The Participant is actively employed on the last day of the Deferral Performance Period, unless otherwise provided in Section 3.6 or Section 3.7. |
9
(c) | Calculation of Awards. The value of Awards to Level I Participants will be calculated in accordance with the applicable Appendix to the Plan. |
Section 3.4 Earning and Vesting of Awards for Level II Participants.
(a) | Earning and Vesting of Awards. An Award to a Level II Participant will become earned and vested on the last day of the Performance Period provided the following requirements are met (also an "Annual Award"): |
i. | At least one of the applicable Performance Goals for the Performance Period are satisfied at or above the Threshold level; |
ii. | The Participant received (or, in the case of a Termination of Service described in Section 3.6(b) or Section 3.6(c), the President-CEO determines that the Participant would have received) an overall weighted performance rating for the Performance Period of 2.5 or greater on a scale of 1-5 (with 5 being the highest rating), or equivalent measure; and |
iii. | The Participant is actively employed on the last day of the Performance Period, unless otherwise provided in Section 3.6. |
(b) | Calculation of Awards. The value of Awards to Level II Participants will be calculated in accordance with the applicable Appendix to the Plan. |
Section 3.5 Reserved.
Section 3.6 Effect of Termination of Service.
(a) | In General. If a Level I Participant incurs a Termination of Service for any reason other than a reason set forth in subsection 3.6(b), 3.6(c), or Section 3.7, the Level I Participant's Award will be forfeited, effective as of the date of such Termination of Service. |
If a Level II Participant incurs a Termination of Service for any reason other than a reason set forth in subsection 3.6(b) or 3.6(c), the Level II Participant's Award will be forfeited effective as of the date of such Termination of Service.
(b) | Termination Due to Death, Disability, or by the Bank without Cause due to a Reduction in Force. |
i. | Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.3 and subsection 3.6(a), if a Level I Participant incurs a Termination of Service due to death or Disability or by the Bank without Cause due to a Reduction in Force, then the Participant's Deferred Awards (including, without limitation, the Deferred Award attributable to the calendar year in which the Termination of Service occurs) will be treated as earned and vested based on the assumption the Bank would have achieved the applicable Performance Goals at the Target achievement level for the Deferral Performance Period(s). |
10
ii. | Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.3 and subsection 3.6(a), if a Level I Participant incurs a Termination of Service due to death or Disability or by the Bank without Cause due to a Reduction in Force, any Annual Award which has not been earned and vested will be treated as earned and vested based on the assumption the Bank would have achieved the Performance Goals at the Target achievement level for the Performance Period. |
iii. | Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.4 and subsection 3.6(a), if a Level II Participant incurs a Termination of Service during a Performance Period due to death, Disability, or by the Bank without Cause due to a Reduction in Force, an Annual Award will be treated as earned and vested based on the assumption the Bank would have achieved the Performance Goals at the Target achievement level for the Performance Period. |
(c) | Termination Due to Other Events. |
i. | Termination of Service for Good Reason. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.3 and subsection 3.6(a), if a Level I Participant incurs a Termination of Service due to Good Reason, an Annual Award or Deferred Award (including, without limitation, the Deferred Award attributable to the calendar year in which the Termination of Service occurs), as the case may be, will be treated as earned and vested to the extent the Performance Goals for the Performance Period and/or Deferral Performance Period(s) are satisfied. |
ii. | Termination of Service due to Retirement. |
(A) | Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.3 and subsection 3.6(a), if a Level I Participant incurs a Termination of Service due to Retirement, any Annual Award which has not been earned and vested will be treated as earned and vested to the extent the Performance Goals for the Performance Period are satisfied. |
(B) | Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.3 and subsection 3.6(a), if a Level I Participant incurs a Termination of Service due to Retirement, any Deferred Award (including, without limitation, the Deferred Award attributable to the calendar year in which the Termination of Service occurs) will be treated as earned and vested to the extent the Performance Goals for each applicable Deferral Performance Period are satisfied. |
iii. | Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.4 and subsection 3.6(a), if a Level II Participant incurs a Termination of Service during a Performance Period due to Retirement, an Annual Award will be treated as earned and vested to the extent the Performance Goals for the Performance Period are satisfied. |
(d) | Definitions. |
i. | "Cause" means (A) continued failure of a Participant to perform his or her duties with the Bank (other than any such failure resulting from Disability), after a written |
11
demand for performance is delivered to the Participant, which specifically identifies the manner in which the Participant has not performed his or her duties, (B) personal dishonesty, incompetence, willful misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit, intentional failure or omission to perform stated duties, or willful violation of any law, rule or regulation (other than routine traffic violations or similar offenses), or (C) removal of the Participant for cause by the Federal Housing Finance Agency ("FHFA") or at the direction of the FHFA pursuant to 12 U.S.C. 1422b(a)(2), or by any successor agency to the FHFA pursuant to a similar statute.
ii. | "Disability" means, as a result of the Participant's incapacity due to physical or mental illness, the Participant has been absent from his or her duties with the Bank for an aggregate of 12 out of 15 consecutive months and, within 30 days after a written notice of termination is thereafter given by the Bank to the Participant, the Participant does not return to the full-time performance of the Participant's duties. |
iii. | "Good Reason" means a Termination of Service by a Level I Participant under any of the following circumstances: |
(A) | a material change in the Participant's status, position, job title or principal duties and responsibilities as a key employee of the Bank which does not represent a promotion from the Participant's status and position immediately prior to the change ("Position"); |
(B) | the assignment to the Participant of any duties or responsibilities (or removal of any duties or responsibilities), which assignment or removal is materially inconsistent with such Position; |
(C) | any removal of the Participant from such Position (including, without limitation, all demotions and harassing assignments), except in connection with the termination of the Participant's employment for Cause or Disability, or as a result of the Participant's death; |
(D) | any material breach by the Bank of any provisions of this Plan or any other agreement with the Participant; or |
(E) | any failure by the Bank or its successors and assigns to obtain the assumption of this Plan by any successor or assign of the Bank. |
iv. | "Reduction in Force" means an involuntary Termination of Service of a Participant by the Bank in connection with a financial decision by the Board to reduce the number of Bank employees, not due to the Participant's performance, and not due to a Reorganization. |
v. | "Retirement" means the Participant's planned and voluntary termination of employment after the Participant has delivered timely advance written notice of intent to retire to the Bank and has either: (A) attained age 60 with five "Years of Service," or (B) attained the "Rule of 85," which means the Participant has attained a combined age and Years of Service that mathematically is equal to or exceeds the |
12
number 85. A "Year of Service" will be calculated in the same manner as under the Pentegra Defined Benefit Pension Plan for Financial Institutions. Advance written notice will be deemed timely given if it is given at least four weeks in advance, as to Vice Presidents, First Vice Presidents, Senior Vice Presidents, Executive Vice Presidents, and the Chief Executive Officer, and at least two weeks in advance, as to all other employees.
vi. | "Termination of Service" means the occurrence of any act or event or any failure to act, that actually or effectively causes or results in a Participant ceasing, for whatever reason, to be an employee of the Bank, including, but not limited to, death, Disability, Retirement, termination of the Participant's employment by the Bank (whether for Cause or otherwise), termination by the Participant of his or her employment with the Bank for Good Reason and voluntary resignation or termination by the Participant of his or her employment. |
Section 3.7 Effect of Reorganization. The following provision applies to Level I Participants only.
(a) | Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 3.3 and 3.6, if a Reorganization of the Bank occurs, then any portion of an Annual Award or Deferred Award (including, without limitation, the Deferred Award attributable to the calendar year in which the Termination of Service occurs) which has not otherwise become earned and vested as of the date of the Reorganization will be treated as 100 percent earned and vested effective as of the date of the Reorganization. The amount of the Awards will be equal to the greater of: (i) the amount determined based on the assumption that the Bank would have achieved the Performance Goals at the Target achievement level for the Performance Period and Deferral Performance Period; or (ii) the amount determined based on the assumption that the Bank would have achieved the Performance Goals at the achievement level for the Performance Period and the Deferral Performance Period that the Bank had actually achieved as of the date of the Reorganization. |
(b) | "Reorganization" of the Bank will mean the occurrence at any time of any of the following events: |
i. | The Bank is merged or consolidated with or reorganized into or with another bank or other entity, or another bank or other entity is merged or consolidated into the Bank; |
ii. | The Bank sells or transfers all, or substantially all of its business and/or assets to another bank or other entity; |
iii. | More than 50 percent of the total market value or total voting power of all ownership interests in the Bank is acquired, within any 12-month period, by one person or entity or by more than one person or entity acting as a group; or |
iv. | The liquidation or dissolution of the Bank. |
13
The term "Reorganization" shall not include any Reorganization that is mandated by federal statute, rule, regulation, or directive, including 12 U.S.C. § 1421, et seq., as amended, and 12 U.S.C. § 4501 et seq., as amended, and which the Director of the FHFA (or successor agency) has determined should not be a basis for accelerating vesting under this Plan, by reason of the capital condition of the Bank or because of unsafe or unsound acts, practices, or condition ascertained in the course of the Agency's supervision of the Bank or because any of the conditions identified in 12 U.S.C. § 4617(a)(3) are met with respect to the Bank (which conditions do not result solely from the mandated reorganization itself, or from action that the Agency has required the Bank to take under 12 U.S.C. § 1431(d)).
Section 3.8 Payment of Awards.
(a) | Payments Related to Termination of Service. The following provisions apply to Final Awards payable as a result of a Termination of Service. |
i. | In the event of a Termination of Service due to (a) a termination by the Bank without Cause due to a Reduction in Force, (b) death, or (c) Disability, 100 percent of a Final Award will be paid in a single sum within 75 days of the date of Termination of Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Reduction in Force, a Participant must execute the severance agreement offered by the Bank in order to be eligible to receive payment. |
ii. | In the event of a Termination of Service due to Retirement or a termination by a Level I Participant for Good Reason, payment of a Final Award will be made in a single sum within 75 days following the end of the Performance Period or Deferral Performance Period, as applicable. |
(b) | Payments Not Related to a Termination of Service. Final Awards which become vested for reasons other than a Termination of Service will be paid in a single sum within 75 days following the end of the Performance Period or Deferral Performance Period, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Discretionary Awards granted pursuant to Section 3.1(d) may be awarded and paid at any time during the year that funds are available for such Discretionary Awards. |
(c) | Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, Final Awards will be paid upon approval by the Board and after review of the calculations by the Bank's Internal Audit department. However, in the event of a Reorganization, payment of a Final Award will be made in a single sum on the date on which the Reorganization occurs. |
Section 3.9 Reduction or Forfeiture of Awards.
(a) | If during the Deferral Performance Period actual losses or other measures or aspects of performance related to the Performance Period or Deferral Performance Period are realized which would have caused a reduction in amount of the Final Award calculated for the Performance Period or Deferral Performance Period, then the remaining amount of the Final Award to be paid at the end of the Deferral Performance Period will be reduced to reflect this additional information. |
14
(b) | Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, if a Participant violates a Non-Solicitation Agreement, all of his unpaid vested and unvested Awards will be forfeited effective as of the date the Board determines such violation has occurred and gives written notice to the Participant of such determination. Any future payments for a vested Award will cease and the Bank will have no further obligation to make such payments. |
(c) | Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, if during the most recent examination of the Bank by the FHFA, the FHFA identified an unsafe or unsound practice or condition that is material to the financial operation of the Bank within the Participant's area(s) of responsibility and such unsafe or unsound practice or condition is not subsequently remediated to the satisfaction of the Board as determined by the Board after reviewing the findings or input from the FHFA, then all (or a portion) of a Participant's vested and unvested Awards will be forfeited as determined by the Board and directed to the participant in writing. Any future payments for a vested Award will, if directed by the Board, cease and the Bank will have no further obligation to make such payments. |
(d) | By resolution, the Board may reduce or eliminate an Award that is otherwise earned under this Plan but not yet paid, if the Board finds that a serious, material safety-soundness problem, or a serious, material risk-management deficiency exists at the Bank, or if: (i) operational errors or omissions result in material revisions to: (A) the financial results, (B) information submitted to the FHFA, or (C) data used to determine incentive payouts; (ii) submission of material information to the SEC, Office of Finance, and/or FHFA is significantly past due, or (iii) the Bank fails to make sufficient progress, as determined by the Board, in the timely remediation of significant examination, monitoring and other supervisory findings. |
ARTICLE IV
ADMINISTRATION
Section 4.1 Appointment of the Committee.

ARTICLE VII
MISCELLANEOUS
Section 7.1 Governing Law. Except to the extent superseded by laws of the United States, the laws of Indiana will be controlling in all matters relating to the Plan without regard to the choice of law principles therein. The Plan and all Awards are intended to comply, and will be construed by the Bank in a manner in which they are exempt from or comply with the applicable provisions of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). To the extent there is any conflict between a provision of the Plan or an Award and a provision of Code Section 409A, the applicable provision of Code Section 409A will control.
Section 7.2 Headings and Gender. The headings and subheadings in the Plan have been inserted for convenience of reference only and will not affect the construction of the Plan provisions. In any necessary construction, the masculine will include the feminine and the singular the plural, and vice versa. All calculations of events that last a portion of a calendar year or are to be determined pro rata as to a calendar year will be determined by the actual number of days the condition or event existed and assuming a 365-day year.
Section 7.3 Spendthrift Clause. No benefit or interest available under the Plan will be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or attachment by creditors of a Participant, either voluntarily or involuntarily. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant may, by completing and signing a written beneficiary designation form which is delivered to and accepted by the Bank, designate a beneficiary to receive any payment and/or exercise any rights with respect to outstanding Awards upon the Participant’s death. If at the time of the Participant’s death there is not on file a fully effective beneficiary designation form, or if the designated beneficiary did not survive the Participant, the person or persons surviving at the time of the Participant’s death in the first of the following classes of beneficiaries in which there is a survivor, shall have the right to receive any payment and/or exercise any rights with respect to outstanding Awards:
(a)Participant’s surviving spouse.
(b)Participant’s surviving domestic partner.
(c)Equally to the Participant’s children, except that if any of the Participant’s children predecease the Participant but leave descendants surviving, such descendants shall take by right of representation the share their parent would have taken if living.
(d)Participant’s estate.
If a person in the class surviving dies before receiving any payment and/or exercising any rights with respect to outstanding Awards (or the person’s share of any payment and/or rights in case of more than one person in the class), that person’s right to receive any payment and/or exercise any rights with respect to outstanding Awards will lapse and the determination of who will be entitled to receive any payment and/or exercise any rights with respect to outstanding Awards will be determined as if that person predeceased the Participant.
For purposes of this Section 7.3, the following terms have the meanings assigned to them below:
17
(e)The term “spouse” means: (i) a person of the opposite gender from the Participant who is legally married to the Participant at the relevant time under the laws of the state in which they reside and who meets applicable requirements for being treated as a spouse for purposes of federal law; or (ii) a person of the same gender as the Participant who at the relevant time either (1) is recognized as being legally married to the Participant under federal law or the laws of the state or country in which the relationship was created, or (2) is a person who has joined with the Participant in a civil union that is recognized as creating some or all of the rights of marriage under the laws of the state or country in which the relationship was created.
(f)The term “domestic partner” means a person who is not the spouse of the Participant as defined in subsection (a) above, but who at the relevant time is the Participant’s significant other (together referred to as “partners”) with whom the Participant lives and shares financial responsibility. A domestic partner may be the same gender or opposite gender. A person will not be considered a domestic partner unless the Participant and/or domestic partner provides sufficient evidence to the Bank that all of the following requirements are satisfied:
i. | Both partners are at least 18 years of age. |
ii. | Neither partner is married to another person under either statutory or common law, neither has another spouse, and neither is a member of another domestic partnership or has been a member of another domestic partnership within the prior 6 months. |
iii. | The partners have shared the same residence for at least 6 months, and continue to do so. |
iv. | The partners are not blood relatives. |
v. | Each of the partners is the other's sole life partner, and intend to remain so indefinitely. |

(A) | Common ownership of real property or a common leasehold interest in property; |
(B) | Joint checking account; |
(C) | Joint credit cards; |
(D) | Designation of one another as primary beneficiary for life insurance or retirement benefits, or primary beneficiary designation under partner's will; |
(E) | Joint ownership of a motor vehicle; or |
(F) | Designation of partner under power of attorney. |

Section 7.4 Counterparts. This Plan may be executed in any number of counterparts, each one constituting but one and the same instrument, and may be sufficiently evidenced by any one counterpart.
Section 7.5 No Enlargement of Employment Rights. Nothing contained in the Plan may be construed as a contract of employment between the Bank and any person, nor may the Plan be deemed to give any person the right to be retained in the employ of the Bank or limit the right of the Bank to employ or discharge any person with or without cause.
Section 7.6 Limitations on Liability. The individual members of the Board will, in accordance with the Bank's by-laws, be indemnified and held harmless by the Bank with respect to any alleged breach of responsibilities performed or to be performed hereunder. In addition, notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, neither the Bank nor any individual acting as an employee or agent of the Bank will be liable to a Participant for any claim, loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with the Plan, except when the same has been affirmatively determined by a court order or by the affirmative and binding determination of an arbitrator, to be due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that person.
Section 7.7 Incapacity of Participant. If any person entitled to receive a distribution under the Plan is physically or mentally incapable of personally receiving and giving a valid receipt for any payment due (unless a prior claim for the distribution has been made by a duly qualified guardian or other legal representative), then, unless and until a claim for the distribution has been made by a duly appointed guardian or other legal representative of the person, the Committee may provide for the distribution to be made to any other individual or institution then contributing toward or providing for the care and maintenance of the person. Any payment made for the benefit of the person under this Section will be a payment for the account of such person and a complete discharge of any liability of the Bank and the Plan.
Section 7.8 Evidence. Evidence required of anyone under the Plan may be by certificate, affidavit, document or other information which the person relying on the evidence considers pertinent and reliable, and signed, made or presented by the proper party or parties.
Section 7.9 Action by Bank. Any action required of or permitted by the Bank under the Plan will be by resolution of the Board or by a person or persons authorized by resolution of the Board.
Section 7.10 Severability. In the event any provisions of the Plan are held to be illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity will not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan will be construed and endorsed as if the illegal or invalid provisions had never been contained in the Plan.
Section 7.11 Information to be Furnished by a Participant. A Participant, or any other person entitled to benefits under the Plan, must furnish the Committee with any and all documents, evidence, data or other information the Committee considers necessary or desirable for the purpose of administering the Plan. Benefit payments under the Plan are conditioned on a Participant (or other person who is entitled to benefits) furnishing full, true and complete data, evidence or other information to the Committee, and on the prompt execution of any document reasonably related to the administration of the Plan requested by the Committee.
Section 7.12 Attorneys' Fees. If any action is commenced to enforce the provisions of the Plan, payment of attorneys' fees will be governed by the terms set forth in the mandatory "Agreement to Arbitrate" entered into between the Bank and the Participant.
19
Section 7.13 Binding on Successors. The Plan will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Bank and its successors and assigns, and the successors, assigns, designees and estates of a Participant. The Plan will also be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successor organization succeeding to substantially all of the assets and business of the Bank, but nothing in the Plan will preclude the Bank from merging or consolidating into or with, or transferring all or substantially all of its assets to, another organization which assumes the Plan and all obligations of the Bank hereunder. The Bank agrees that it will make appropriate provision for the preservation of a Participant's rights under the Plan in any agreement or plan which it may enter into to effect any merger, consolidation, reorganization or transfer of assets. Upon such a merger, consolidation, reorganization or transfer of assets and assumption of Plan obligations of the Bank, the term "Bank" will refer to such other organization and the Plan will continue in full force and effect.

B. 2018 Performance Goals
Performance Goal achievement will be determined for all Level II Participants based on the following values for the different achievement levels:
PERCENTAGE VALUE FOR ACHIEVEMENT OF PERFORMANCE GOALS | ||
Threshold | Target | Maximum |
50% | 75% | 100% |
The Bank's Performance Goals are as follows:
22
MISSION GOALS | WEIGHTED VALUE | THRESHOLD | TARGET | MAXIMUM | ||
Bank (1) | ERM | Sales (2) | ||||
1. PROFITABILITY (3) | 20% | 15% | 20% | 415 bp | 571 bp | 656 bp |

5. OPERATIONAL RISK OBJECTIVE - EUC Inventory System of Record (10) | 10% | 10% | -% | After the end of the Third Quarter 2018 and on or before the end of Fourth Quarter 2018 | After the end of the Second Quarter 2018 and on or before the end of Third Quarter 2018 | On or before the end of Second Quarter 2018 |
(1) | For all Level II Participants, excluding those addressed in the ERM and Sales columns, and excluding those in the Internal Audit department. "ERM" means the Bank's Enterprise Risk Management department. |
(2) | Applies to individuals included in the "Member Outreach" group above. Administrative support staff for individuals in the Member Outreach group are included in the Bank column for weighted value determination. |
(3) | For purposes of this goal, profitability is defined as the Bank’s profitability rate in excess of the Bank’s cost of funds rate. Profitability is the Bank’s adjusted net income reduced by the portion of net income to be added to restricted retained earnings under the Joint Capital Enhancement Agreement dated August 5, 2011, as amended, by and among the Federal Home Loan Banks and increased by the Bank’s accruals for incentive compensation. Adjusted net income represents GAAP Net Income adjusted: (i) for the net impact of certain current and prior period Advance prepayments and debt extinguishments, net of the AHP assessment, (ii) to exclude mark-to-market adjustments on derivatives and certain other effects from derivatives and hedging activities, net of the AHP assessment, and (iii) to exclude the effects from interest expense on mandatorily redeemable capital stock. The Bank’s profitability rate is profitability, as defined above, as a percentage of average total regulatory capital stock (B1 weighted at 100% and B2 weighted at 80% to reflect the relative weights of the Bank’s dividend). Assumes no material change in investment authority under the FHFA's regulation, policy, directive, guidance, or law. |
(4) | Member advances growth is calculated as the growth in the average daily balance of advances outstanding to members at par. Average daily balances are used instead of point-in-time balances to eliminate point-in-time activity that may occur and to reward for the benefit of the income earned on advances balances while outstanding. Members that become non-members during 2018 and all captive insurance company members will be excluded from the calculation. Goal assumes no material change in membership eligibility under FHFA's regulation, policy, directive, guidance, or law. |
(5) | Member education and outreach events are symposia, conferences, workshops, webinars (with a maximum of 4 webinars towards achievement of this goal), educational events, presentations at trade conferences, and other events educating Bank members about Advances, MPP, the Bank's community investments products and activities, industry trends, and other products and services. To qualify, events must target more than 1 member. Status and reporting on |
23
this Goal and its attainment will be provided in writing by the officer responsible for the event, and will be confirmed by the CFO or by the Chief Business Operations Officer.
(6) | Net Growth is calculated as the increase in the size of the Bank's Mortgage Purchase Program ("MPP") portfolio measured as of December 31, 2017, and December 31, 2018. Net Growth is calculated: (a) excluding the effect of any allowances for loan losses on MPP balances; (b) excluding the effect of any Acquired Member Assets ("AMA") obtained from or through other Federal Home Loan Banks; (c) including both FHA and conventional loans; (d) assuming no capital requirement for MPP; and (e) assuming no material change in AMA authority under the FHFA's regulation, policy, directive, guidance, or law. |
(7) | "CIP" means Community Investment Program. "CIP Advances" are newly-originated Community Investment Cash Advances, including CIP and other qualifying Advances and CIP qualified letters of credit, provided in support of targeted projects as defined in 12 C.F.R. Part 1291 and the Federal Home Loan Bank Act. |
(8) | The Board has established 3 ERM Objectives for 2018. ERM Objective 1, Program Maturity Self-Assessment, requires ERM to perform a comprehensive, enterprise-wide self-assessment of the maturity of the Bank’s Enterprise Risk Management Program, and report on the results of the assessment to the Board. ERM Objective 2, IT Assessment, requires ERM to assess the Bank’s information technology program against the IT risk management framework and report on the results of the assessment to the Board. ERM Objective 3, Business Continuity, requires the Bank to operate under its business continuity / disaster recovery plan for a defined period of time, and to return back to normal operations. ERM will demonstrate its achievement of each ERM Objective by reporting on them to the Risk Committee and Risk Oversight Committee. |
(9) | “Qualifying Vendors” are vendors that qualify as minorities, women, individuals with disabilities, and minority-, women-, and disabled-owned businesses. |
(10) | Achievement of this goal requires the Bank to have designated a tool as its system of record for its end-user computing applications ("EUC") inventory, and to have performed an inventory of EUCs using the tool. Satisfaction of this goal will be evidenced in one or more reports to the Bank's Risk Committee. |

(1) | For Level I Participants other than those in ERM and Internal Audit. |
(2) | For purposes of this goal, profitability is defined as the Bank’s profitability rate in excess of the Bank’s cost of funds rate. Profitability is the Bank’s adjusted net income reduced by the portion of net income to be added to restricted retained earnings under the Joint Capital Enhancement Agreement dated August 5, 2011, as amended, by and among the Federal Home Loan Banks and increased by the Bank’s accruals for incentive compensation. Adjusted net income represents GAAP Net Income adjusted: (i) for the net impact of certain current and prior period Advance prepayments and debt extinguishments, net of the AHP assessment, (ii) to exclude mark-to-market adjustments on derivatives and certain other effects from derivatives and hedging activities, net of the AHP assessment, and (iii) to exclude the effects from interest expense on mandatorily redeemable capital stock. The Bank's profitability rate is profitability, as defined above, as a percentage of average total regulatory capital stock (B1 weighted at 100% and B2 weighted at 80% to reflect the relative weights of the Bank’s dividend). Assumes no material change in investment authority under the FHFA's regulation, policy, directive, guidance, or law. Attainment of this goal will be computed using the simple average of annual profitability measures over the three-year period. |
(3) | Total Retained Earnings divided by the sum of the carrying value of the MBS and AMA assets portfolios, measured at the end of each month. The calculation will be the simple average of 36 month-end calculations. |

70%*58.13%=40.69% | 70%*60%=42% |
Assuming the Senior Vice President's Compensation is $200,000, his or her total incentive will equal the following, depending on the Senior Vice President's business unit:
Bank Senior Vice President | ERM Senior Vice President |
$200,000*40.69%=$81,380 | $200,000*42%=$84,000 |

The Executive also acknowledges and agrees that the Bank uses reasonable means to maintain the secrecy and confidentiality of the Confidential Information. |
(b) | Non-Disclosure. At all times while the Executive is employed by the Bank, and at all times thereafter, the Executive will not (i) directly or indirectly disclose, provide or discuss any Confidential Information with or to any Person (as defined in subsection (d)) other than those directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents of the Bank who need to know such Confidential Information for a proper corporate purpose, and (ii) directly or indirectly use any Confidential Information (A) to compete against the Bank, or (B) for the Executive's own benefit, or for the benefit of any Person other than the Bank. |

3. Non-Solicitation and No-Hire. The Executive hereby understands, acknowledges and agrees that, by virtue of his or her position with the Bank, the Executive has and will have advantageous familiarity and personal contacts with the employees of the Bank and has and will have advantageous familiarity with the business, operations and affairs of the Bank. In addition, the Executive understands, acknowledges and agrees that the business of the Bank is highly competitive. Accordingly, at all times while the Executive is employed by the Bank and for a twelve-month period following Termination of Service, the Executive will not, directly or indirectly, or individually or together with any other Person, as owner, shareholder, investor, member, partner, proprietor, principal, director, officer, Executive, manager, agent, representative, independent contractor, consultant or otherwise induce, request or attempt to influence any Bank employee who was employed by the Bank during the twelve-month period prior to

The Bank's obligation to pay an award to the Executive pursuant to the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis Incentive Plan will immediately terminate in the event the Executive breaches any of the provisions of Section 1 or 3 and all outstanding awards will be forfeited.

The foregoing remedies will not be deemed to be the exclusive rights or remedies of the Bank for any breach of or noncompliance with this Agreement by the Executive but will be in addition to all other rights and remedies available to the Bank at law, in equity or otherwise.
7. Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions (or any portion thereof) contained herein will, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision of this Agreement, but this Agreement will be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or provisions (or portion thereof) had never been contained herein. If any provision of this Agreement will be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable because of the provision's scope, duration or other factor, then such provision will be considered divisible and the court making such determination will have the power to reduce or limit (but not increase or make greater) such scope, duration or other factor or to reform (but not increase or make greater) such provision to make it enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law, and such provision will then be enforceable against the appropriate party hereto in its reformed,
32
reduced or limited form; provided, however, that a provision will be enforceable in its reformed, reduced or limited form only in the particular jurisdiction in which a court of competent jurisdiction makes such determination.
8. Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect to its subject matter, merges and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings with respect to its subject matter, and may not be waived or modified, in whole or in part, except in writing signed by each of the parties hereto. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement in any instance will be deemed to be a waiver of the same or any other provision in any other instance. The recitals set forth above are incorporated herein by this reference.

10. Non-Waiver. The Bank's or the Executive's failure or refusal to enforce all or any part of, or the Bank's or the Executive's waiver of any breach of this Agreement, will not be a waiver of the Bank's or the Executive's continuing or subsequent rights under this Agreement, nor will such failure or refusal or waiver have any effect on the subsequent enforceability of this Agreement.
11. Non-Assignability. This Agreement contemplates that the Executive will personally provide the services described herein, and accordingly, the Executive may not assign the Executive's rights or obligations hereunder, whether by operation of law or otherwise, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the Bank.
