Dear Ms. Dubberly:

On behalf of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (the "FHLBank" and collectively with the other Federal Home Loan Banks, the "FHLBanks"), I am writing to express my appreciation for the time and counsel that you have provided to assist the individual FHLBanks in evaluating the issues pertaining to the registration of their capital stock under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Although we have not to date filed periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), we have made available to our respective members a substantial amount of information through periodic disclosures. The Office of Finance, as agent for the FHLBanks, also provides substantial periodic disclosures about the FHLBanks individually and the FHLBank System as a whole in connection with our issuance of consolidated obligations in the debt markets.
