# §1260.4. Timing and form of information distribution.

- (a) **Timing of distribution by FHFA.** FHFA may distribute information as provided in the notice issued under [§ 1260.2(b)](/cfr/12/1260.2.md?p=b) after the expiration of the applicable time period specified in [§ 1260.3(b)](/cfr/12/1260.3.md?p=b) unless, within that time period, the affected Bank has filed with FHFA a written request to withhold particular proprietary information that meets the requirements of [§ 1260.3(a)](/cfr/12/1260.3.md?p=a). When a Bank has filed such a request, FHFA shall not distribute the information that is the subject of the request until the Director or his designee has made the determination and provided the notice required by [§ 1260.3(c)](/cfr/12/1260.3.md?p=c) and shall distribute or withhold the subject information in conformity with that determination.
- (b) **Timing of distribution by Banks.** A Bank that is required to distribute information directly to the other Banks and the Office of Finance shall distribute that information at the time specified in the notice issued under [§ 1260.2(b)](/cfr/12/1260.2.md?p=b) unless, within the time period specified in [§ 1260.3(b)(1)(iii)](/cfr/12/1260.3.md?p=b-1-iii), the Bank has submitted to FHFA a request to withhold particular proprietary information that meets the requirements of [§ 1260.3(a)](/cfr/12/1260.3.md?p=a). If the Bank has filed such a request, it need not distribute the information that is the subject of the request until the Director or his designee has made the determination and provided the notice required by [§ 1260.3(c)](/cfr/12/1260.3.md?p=c). Thereafter, the Bank shall distribute or withhold the subject information in conformity with that determination.
- (c) **Form.** FHFA may distribute information, or require a Bank to distribute information, under this part in either tangible or electronic form, as it deems appropriate.
