Surplus capital stock is defined as any stock holdings in excess of 115% of a member&#8217;s minimum stock requirement, and excess capital stock is defined as any stock holdings in excess of a shareholder&#8217;s minimum stock requirement. In accordance with the revised Framework, each quarter, Bank management will evaluate and determine the amount of capital stock to be repurchased in that quarter, if any, giving consideration to certain capital metrics and capital management objectives and strategies, and subject to the requirements and limitations mentioned above. The amount subject to repurchase in any quarter will be the sum of all surplus stock held by members and all excess stock held by nonmembers. In addition, at Bank management&#8217;s discretion, some or all of the excess stock held by a member may be repurchased upon request of the member, subject to the requirements, limitations and considerations mentioned above. At least 15 calendar days before any repurchase, the Bank will notify shareholders of its intention to repurchase capital stock and of the scheduled repurchase date. On the scheduled repurchase date, the Bank will calculate the amount of stock to be repurchased to ensure that each member and former member will continue to meet its minimum capital stock requirement after the repurchase.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">A copy of the Bank's member communication regarding the Bank's quarterly surplus and excess capital stock repurchase practice is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.

Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On May 28, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (Bank) awarded Suzanne Titus Johnson, Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, a discretionary cash incentive compensation award in the amount of $100,000 under the Bank's 2015 Executive Incentive Plan for her achievements in overseeing and managing the Bank's legal projects.
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On May 29, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco ("Bank") revised the Bank's Excess Stock Repurchase, Retained Earnings, and Dividend Framework (Framework) to reinstate the Bank's practice of repurchasing the surplus capital stock of all members and the excess capital stock of all nonmember shareholders on a regular quarterly schedule, at the Bank's discretion and subject to certain statutory and regulatory requirements, and the Bank's Risk Management Policy and the Bank's
Capital Plan limitations. Surplus capital stock is defined as any stock holdings in excess of 115% of a member's minimum stock requirement, and excess capital stock is defined as any stock holdings in excess of a shareholder's minimum stock requirement. In accordance with the revised Framework, each quarter, Bank management will evaluate and determine the amount of capital stock to be repurchased in that quarter, if any, giving consideration to certain capital metrics and capital management objectives and strategies, and subject to the requirements and limitations mentioned above. The amount subject to repurchase in any quarter will be the sum of all surplus stock held by members and all excess stock held by nonmembers. In addition, at Bank management's discretion, some or all of the excess stock held by a member may be repurchased upon request of the member, subject to the requirements, limitations and considerations mentioned above. At least 15 calendar days before any repurchase, the Bank will notify shareholders of its intention to repurchase capital stock and of the scheduled repurchase date. On the scheduled repurchase date, the Bank will calculate the amount of stock to be repurchased to ensure that each member and former member will continue to meet its minimum capital stock requirement after the repurchase.
A copy of the Bank's member communication regarding the Bank's quarterly surplus and excess capital stock repurchase practice is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this report. The information being furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and contained in Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, and shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
