Federal R eserve Bank of D allas Da l l a s , T exas 7 5 2 2 2 Notice 94-43 April 19, 1994 SPECIAL ELECTION OF CLASS A DIRECTOR NOMINATION PROCEDURES To All Member Banks in the Eleventh Federal Reserve District: A special election will be held under the provisions of Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act to choose a successor to Jeff Austin, Jr. Mr. Austin resigned as a Class A Director effective February 10,1994, to accept appointment to the Texas State Finance Commission. His successor will be elected to fill the unexpired portion of a three-year term ending December 31, 1995. Mr. Austin was elected by the banks in Group 2 (consisting of banks having capital and surplus of over $2,500,000, but under $10,000,000), and his successor will be chosen by the banks in this group. The banks comprising Group 2 are listed on the following pages. The group in which a member bank will be entitled to vote will be determined by its classification as of the date of this letter, even though its capital and surplus may subsequently change prior to the date of the election. Except in the case of any m ember banks that are subsidiaries of the same bank holding company,* each bank in Group 2 is permitted to nominate one candidate for Class A Director. When several banks are subsidiaries of a bank holding company, the nomination form is being sent only to the bank designated to participate in this election; therefore, banks in Group 2 that will not participate in this election are being sent this notice, without forms, for their information. The nominations must be made by resolution of the Board of Directors, certified to me and received in my office on or before May 20, 1994. A form and return envelope for this purpose are enclosed. On June 1, a list of the candidates (indicating the nominating banks) and a preferential ballot will be mailed to each bank in the voting group. The ballot must be cast within 15 days after receipt. The polls will open at 9 a.m. on June 8, and close at 2 p.m. on June 23. At that time, the ballot box will be opened at this Bank, the votes counted, and the results of the election announced. The candidates are invited to be present or represented on that occasion. In order to be counted, the ballot must be executed by an officer authorized to cast the vote. The officers so authorized by their bank are listed on the following pages. The authority conferred on these officers continues until revoked; they need not be redesignated. Each m ember bank which has not designated an officer, or officers, for the purpose of signing the ballot, or any bank that desires to change its designation, should do so by resolution of its Board of Directors and certify the designation to me before the polls close. A form for this purpose will be furnished upon request. If the official signature of the officer, or officers, authorized to cast the ballot has not been filed with this Federal Reserve Bank, that official signature should be filed before the polls close. ‘ Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, reads in part as follows: “...That whenever any member banks within the same Federal Reserve district are subsidiaries of the same bank holding company within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, participation in any such nomination or election by such m ember banks, including such bank holding company if it is also a member bank, shall be confined to one of such banks, which may be designated for the purpose by such holding company.” The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System has ruled that a holding company affiliate, having one or more subsidiary banks in each of the three groups into which member banks of a Federal Reserve district are divided for the purpose of electing directors, may designate one such bank in each group to participate in the nomination and election of each Class A Director and each Class B Director chosen by the group of which such bank is a member and such member bank so designated may validly participate in such nomination and election. Accordingly, banks in Group 2 affected by this provision of law are requested to take prompt action to have the appropriate bank holding company designate, if it has not already designated, one of its banks to participate in this election. This publication was digitized and made available by the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas' Historical Library (FedHistory@dal.frb.org) While the banks in Group 1 (consisting of banks having capital and surplus of $10,000,000 and over) and Group 3 (consisting of banks having capital and surplus of $2,500,000 and under) will not vote in this election, this notice is sent to them, without forms, for their information. Sincerely yours, Chairman of the Board Enclosures (2) Information Concerning Eligibility for Class A Directorship of a Federal Reserve Bank Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, as am ended by the Federal Reserve Reform Act of 1977, contains the following provisions: “Class A shall consist of three members, w ithout discrim ination on the basis of race, creed, color, sex, or national origin, who shall be chosen by and be representative of the stockholding banks.” “ No officer or director of a mem ber bank shall be eligible to serve as a Class A director unless nominated and elected by banks w hich are members of the same group as the mem ber bank of which he is an officer or d irector.” “A ny person who is an officer or director of more than one m em ber bank shall not be eligible for nomination as a Class A director except by banks in the same group as the bank having the largest aggregate resources of any of those of which such person is an officer or director.” “ No Senator or R epresentative in Congress shall be a mem ber of the Board of G overnors of the Federal Reserve System or an officer or a director of a Federal Reserve Bank.” The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System has expressed the opinion . .that, to be consistent with the spirit and underlying principles of the Federal Reserve Act, it is inappropriate, as a general rule, for officers and directors of Federal Reserve Banks and Branches to hold partisan political or public office in the service of the United States, or of any state, territory, county, district, political subdivision, or municipality thereof, or to act as members of political party committees.” GROUP 2 Consists of all m em ber banks having capital and surplus of over $2,500,000, but under $10,000,000. Banks in this group elect one Class A Director.
