ORDER OF PROHIBITION
FROM FURTHER PARTICIPATION
FDIC-92-86e

   Charles E. Baker ("Respondent"), has received a NOTICE OF INTENTION TO REMOVE FROM OFFICE AND/OR TO PROHIBIT FROM FURTHER PARTICIPATION ("NOTICE") issued by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") detailing the violations and/or unsafe or unsound banking practices for which an ORDER OF PROHIBITION FROM FURTHER PARTICIPATION ("ORDER") may issue. Having been advised of the 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 the FDIC Rules of Practice and Procedure, 12 C.F.R. Part 308, and having waived that right, the Respondent 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, whereby solely for the purpose of this proceeding and without admitting or denying any violations and/or unsafe or unsound banking practices, Respondent consented to the issuance of an ORDER by the FDIC.
   The FDIC considered the matter and determined it had reason to believe that:
   (a) The Respondent has engaged or participated in violations and/or unsafe or unsound banking practices as an institution-affiliated party of the Banks;
   (b) By reason of such violations and/or practices, the Banks have suffered or will probably suffer financial loss or other damage, the interests of the Banks' depositors have been or could be prejudiced, and/or Respondent has received financial gain or other benefits; and
   (c) Such violations and/or practices demonstrate the Respondent's willful and/or continuing disregard for the safety or soundness of the Banks.
   The FDIC further determined that such violations and/or practices demonstrate the Respondent's unfitness to serve as a director, officer, person participating in the conduct of the affairs or as an institution-affiliated party of the Banks, any other insured depository institution, or any other agency or organization enumerated in section 8(e)(7)(A) of the Act, 12 U.S.C. § 1818(e)(7)(A).
   The FDIC, therefore, accepted the CONSENT AGREEMENT and issued the following:

   [.1] 1. Charles E. Baker is hereby, without the prior written approval of the FDIC and the appropriated Federal financial institutions regulatory agency, as that term is defined in section 8(e)(7)(D) of the Act, 12 U.S.C. § 1818(e)(7)(D), prohibited from:

   (a) Participating in any manner in the conduct of the affairs of any financial institution or organization enumerated in section 8(e)(7)(A) of the Act, 12 U.S.C. § 1818(e)(7)(A);

   (c) Violating any voting agreement previously approved by the appropriate Federal banking agency; or
   (d) Voting for a director, or serving or acting as an institution-affiliated party.
