Any claims by equity holders were not acquired. Share price does not trigger a bank closing and was not the reason for TeamBank N.A.’s failure.

All deposits comprised of principal and interest through the date of bank failure, EXCLUDING deposits in the name of CEDE & CO, will be funded by the FDIC and transferred to the assuming bank. Funds representing principal and interest through the date of bank failure for the CEDE & CO brokered CDs will be paid directly by the FDIC.

The accounts transferred to Great Southern Bank will be separately insured
for at least six months after the merger. This grace period gives a depositor
the opportunity to restructure the accounts, if necessary.
CDs from the failed bank are separately insured until the earliest maturity date after the end of the
six-month grace period.
CDs that mature during the six-month period and are renewed for the same term and in the same dollar
amount (either with or without accrued interest) continue to be separately insured until the first maturity
date after the six-month period.
If a CD matures during the six-month grace period and is renewed on any other basis, it would be
separately insured only until the end of the six-month grace period.
Great Southern Bank will be reviewing rates and will notify you.
You may withdraw funds from any transferred account without an early withdrawal penalty until you enter
into a new deposit agreement with your new bank. Entering into a new deposit agreement can be
done by either renewing your CD or making a deposit to, or a withdrawal from, your account.

You should continue to make your checks payable to TeamBank, N.A. and send your payments to the same address.

The FDIC is required by law to employ the least-cost resolution measure for each failed financial institution. The most frequent result is for the FDIC to transfer only the insured deposits in a merger transaction. The FDIC has been able to transfer all deposits in about 25% of the failures over the past 15 years.
