in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

At their first meeting, a Federal reserve bank's Class A, B, and C directors must stagger their own terms into one, two, and three years. After that, every director serves a three-year term. Vacancies get filled the same way the original directors were chosen, for the rest of the term.

At the first meeting of a Federal reserve bank's full board, the Class A, B, and C directors must pick one member of each class to serve a one-year term (ending on the January 1 nearest the meeting), one to serve a two-year term, and one to serve a three-year term. After that, every director chosen this way serves a full three-year term. If a vacancy opens up in any class, it gets filled the same way the original directors were picked, and that replacement serves only the rest of the unexpired term.
