Item 3.03 Material Modifications to Rights of Security Holders.





Item 8.01 Other Events.

On July 2, 2014, the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York ("FHLBNY") informed its membership of certain amendments to the FHLBNY’s Capital Plan ("Plan"). The Plan defines the rights of the holders of the FHLBNY’s Class B Capital Stock. The amended Plan will become effective on August 1, 2014.

In summary, the Plan is being revised to:

• reduce the ‘Membership Stock Purchase Requirement’ contained in Appendix 1 of the Plan from 20 basis points to 15 basis points of members’ Mortgage-related Assets based on year-end financial statements (subject to a $1,000 minimum);

• transfer material pertaining to the definition of the term ‘Mortgage-related Assets’ currently located in Appendix 1 of the Plan to the FHLBNY’s website;

• amend Section 3.2 of the Plan to provide for stockholder voting rights with respect to proposed mergers between the Federal Home Loan Banks (Federal Housing Finance Agency regulations have been amended to provide these rights to members);

• amend Section 7.2.3 to allow the FHLBNY to treat the capital stock of members who voluntarily dissolve or liquidate themselves and whose membership is then terminated by the Board in the same manner as members who are placed into conservatorship or receivership;

• update certain outdated regulatory references where they appear in the Plan; and

• delete material that, due to the passage of time, is no longer relevant.

The foregoing description of the amendments to the Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to a copy of the amended Plan included herein as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
