Election of D irectors N omination P rocedures S eptem ber 11, 2001 E l e c t io n o f D ir e c t o r s N o m in a t io n P r o c e d u r e s To the Member Banks of the Eighth Federal Reserve District: An election will be held under the provisions of Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, to choose successors to the following directors of this Bank: Class A Director Class B Director Thomas H. Jacobsen Chairman Emeritus Firstar Corporation (now U.S. Bancorp) Minneapolis, Minnesota Bert Greenwalt Partner Greenwalt Company Hazen, Arkansas Mr. Jacobsen was elected by bank in Group 1 to a three-year term which expires December 31, 2001. He has requested that his name not be placed in nomination for reelection. His successor will be chosen by banks in Group 1 which consists of banks having capital and surplus of $55,000,000 and over. Mr. Greenwalt was elected by banks in Group 3 to a three-year term which expires December 31, 2001. He is eligible for reelection for a term that will expire December 31, 2004. His successor will be chosen by banks in Group 3 which consists of banks having capital and surplus of $4,300,000 and under. This letter lists the member banks in each classification. The group in which a member bank is entitled to vote is 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. Each bank participating in this election* may make a nomination as follows: Each bank in Group 1 may nominate one candidate for Class A director and each bank in Group 3 may nominate one candidate for Class B director. Limitations on eligi bility for nomination for Class A and Class B directors are set forth below. The nominations must be made by resolution of the Board of Directors and certified to me on or before October 11, 2001. A form for this purpose is enclosed. E l e c t io n o f D ir e c t o r s ^ N o m in a t io n P r o c e d u r e s On October 26, 2001, a list of the candidates (including by whom nominated) and a prefer ential ballot will be mailed to each bank in the voting groups. The ballot must be cast within fifteen days after receipt. The polls will open at 9 a.m. on October 30, 2001, and close at 2 p.m. on November 14, 2001. At that time the ballot box will be opened in the Board Room of this Bank, the votes counted and 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. If the official signature of the officer, or officers, authorized to cast the ballot has not been filed with this Federal Reserve Bank, such official signature should be filed before the polls close. Inasmuch as the authority conferred on these officers continues until revoked, they need not be reappointed. Each member bank which has not designated an officer, or officers, for the purpose of signing the ballot, or any bank that desires to change its authorization, should do so by resolution of its Board of Directors and certify the appointment to me before the polls close. A form for this purpose wdll be furnished upon request. While the banks in Group 2 will not vote in this election, this circular is sent to them with out forms for their information. Group 2 consists of member banks with combined capital and surplus over $4,300,000, but under $55,000,000. Charles W. Mueller Chairman of the Board September 11, 2001 ^Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, provides that whenever member banks in the same Federal Reserve district are subsidiaries of the same bank holding company, participation in the nomination and election is confined to the member bank designated for that purpose by the holding company. 2 E l e c t io n o f D ir e c t o r s ^ N o m in a t io n P r o c e d u r e s LIMITATIONS O N ELIGIBILITY FOR NOMINATION Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, contains the following provisions: Class A shall consist of three members, without discrimination 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 member bank shall be eligible to serve as a Class A director unless nominated and elected by banks which are members of the same group as the member bank of which he is an officer or director. . . Any person who is an officer or director of more than one member 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. Class B shall consist of three members, who shall represent the public and shall be elected with out discrimination on the basis of race, creed, color, sex or national origin, and with due but not exclusive consideration to the interests of agriculture, commerce, industry, services, labor and consumers. . . No director of Class B shall be an officer, director or employee of any bank. No Senator or Representative in Congress shall be a member of the Board of Governors 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 issued the following guidelines concern ing qualifications of Class A and B directors. Class A directors should be representatives of the member banks by which they are elected [and] should be residents of the district in which the Federal Reserve Bank is located. The Federal Reserve Banks will be served best by directors whose business and financial inter ests are primarily within and representative of the bank or branch territory for which they are selected rather than of interests controlled or owned outside of such territory. A person whose sole occupation is that of the officer of a savings and loan association is not eli gible for election as a Class B director of a Federal Reserve Bank. On June 2, 1978, the Board of Governors restated its long-standing policy that activity which might be interpreted as associating the Federal Reserve with any political party or political activity is inconsistent with service as a Bank director. In addition, holding a public office in the service of the United States, or of any state, territory, county, district, municipality or political subdivision similar ly is inconsistent with service as a Bank director. Questions about eligibility to serve should be directed to the Secretary of the Bank. 3 E l e c t io n of D ir e c t o r s ^ G roup 1 N o m in a t io n P r o c e d u r e s Consisting of member banks having capital and surplus of $55 million and over I N D IA N N A City Authorized Signature Name of Bank Evansville................Integra Bank, NA ..
