ORDER OF PROHIBITION FROM
FURTHER PARTICIPATION

   Tom M. Lucas ("Respondent"), having received a NOTICE OF INTENTION TO PROHIBIT FROM FURTHER PARTICIPATION ("NOTICE") issued by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") on June 12, 1990, detailing the unsafe or unsound practices and/or breaches of fiduciary duties alleged to have been committed by Respondent, individually and in his capacity as an officer, director, and/or person participating in the conduct of the affairs of Bank of the Northwest, Woodward, Oklahoma ("Bank"), which, in the opinion of the FDIC, resulted in substantial financial loss or other damage to the Bank, and which, in the opinion of the FDIC, demonstrated a willful or continuing disregard by Respondent for the safety or soundness of the Bank and further evidenced Respondent's unfitness to participate in the conduct of the affairs of the Bank, or any other insured depository institution, or any other agency or organization enumerated in section 8(e)(7) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. § 1818 (e)(7), and having been advised of his right to a hearing on the alleged charges pursuant to section 8(e) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act ("Act"), 12 U.S.C. § 1818(e), and having waived those rights, 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 September 19, 1990, whereby solely for the purpose of this proceeding and without admitting or denying any of the alleged unsafe or unsound practices and/or breaches of fiduciary duties, Respondent consented to the issuance of an ORDER OF PROHIBITION FROM FURTHER PARTICIPATION ("ORDER") by the FDIC.
   The FDIC considered the matter and determined that it has reason to believe that the Respondent engaged in unsafe or unsound practices and/or breaches of fiduciary duties in his capacity as an officer, director, and/or person participating in the conduct of the affairs of the Bank, which have resulted in substantial financial loss or other damage to the Bank, and which demonstrated a willful or continuing disregard by Respondent for the safety or soundness of the Bank and further evidenced Respondent's unfitness to participate in the conduct of the affairs of the Bank, or any other insured depository institution. The FDIC, therefore, accepted the CONSENT AGREEMENT and issued following:
