The Bank’s fixed-rate debt generally consists of advances with monthly interest payments and principal due at maturity.

All advances have a prepayment penalty, determined based upon prevailing interest rates.

Variable convertible advances have an initial variable rate based on a discount to LIBOR. As of December 31, 2018, there were no remaining fixed or variable convertible advances.
