ORDER OF PROHIBITION FROM
FURTHER PARTICIPATION

   William J. Camuti ("Respondent"), having been advised of his right to a NOTICE OF INTENTION TO PROHIBIT FROM FURTHER PARTICIPATION ("NOTICE") issued by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") detailing the unsafe or unsound banking practices, breaches of fiduciary duty, and/or violations of law, rule, or regulation alleged to have been committed by the Respondent individually and as an institution-affiliated party in his capacity as controlling shareholder and person participating in the conduct of the affairs of The Farmers State Bank, Offerle, Kansas ("Insured Institution"), which have resulted in substantial financial loss or other damage to the Insured Institution, serious prejudice to the interests of the insured Institution's depositors and/or financial gain or other benefit to the Respondent, and which involved personal dishonesty on the part of the Respondent and/or demonstrated a willful or continuing disregard for the safety or soundness of the Insured Institution; and having been further advised of his right to a hearing on the alleged charges under section 8(e) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act ("Act"). 12 U.S.C. § 1818(e), and Part 308 of the FDIC's Rules and Practice and Procedures, 12 C.F.R. Part 308, waived those rights and entered into a STIPULATION AND CONSENT TO THE ISSUANCE OF AN ORDER OF PROHIBITION FROM FURTHER PARTICIPATION ("CONSENT AGREEMENT") with a representative of the Legal Division of the FDIC, dated No- {{10-31-92 p.C-863}}vember 27, 1990, whereby solely for the purpose of this proceeding and without admitting or denying any unsafe or unsound banking practices, breaches of fiduciary duty, violations of law, rule, or regulation, personal dishonesty, or financial gain, the Respondent consented to the issuance of an ORDER OF PROHIBITION FROM FURTHER PARTICIPATION ("ORDER") by the FDIC.
The FDIC considered the matter and determined it had reasons to believe that:

   (a) the Respondent has engaged or participated in unsafe or unsound banking practices, violations of law, rule or regulation, and/or breaches of his fiduciary duty as a controlling shareholder of the Insured Institution;
   (b) by reason of such practices, violations, and/or breaches of fiduciary duty, (i) the Insured Institution has suffered or will probably suffer substantial financial loss or other damage, (ii) the interests of the Insured Institution's depositors have been or could be seriously prejudiced, and/or (iii) the Respondent has received financial gain or other benefit; and
   (c) such practices, violations, and/or breaches of fiduciary duty demonstrate the Respondent's willful or continuing disregard for the safety or soundness of the Insured Institution and/or involve his personal dishonesty.

   [.1] 1. IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that, except with prior written consent obtained in accordance with section 8(e)(7)(B) of the Act, 12 U.S.C. § 1818(e)(7)(B), the Respondent is prohibited from participating in any manner in the conduct of the affairs of the Insured Institution.
   2.
