III.  Acquiring Financial Institution and Your Insured Deposits

All insured deposit accounts have been transferred to The Citizens Banking Company, Sandusky, OH ("assuming institution") and will be available immediately.  Your bank will re-open during regular business hours at the former Miami Valley Bank main office and branch.

You may view more information about The Citizens Banking Company by visiting their web site at The Citizens Banking Company (CITIZENSBANK)

Principal and interest on insured accounts, through October 4, 2007, are fully insured by the FDIC, up to the insurance limit of $100,000. You will receive full payment for your insured account. Certain entitlements and different types of accounts may be insured for more than the $100,000 limit. IRA funds are insured separately from other types of accounts, up to a $250,000 limit.

If it is determined that you have uninsured funds, the FDIC will mail you a Receiver Certificate. This certificate entitles you to share proportionately in any funds recovered through the assets of Miami Valley Bank. This means that you may eventually recover some of your uninsured funds.

All accounts that exceed the $100,000 insurance limit, and/or all accounts that appear to be related and exceed this limit, are reviewed by the FDIC to determine their ownership and insurance coverage. If it appears that you have potentially uninsured funds, an FDIC Claim Agent will contact you, by either telephone or mail, regarding your account(s). Or, you may call 1-800-451-1093 between 9:00 am and 10:00 pm EST to arrange for a telephone interview with a Claim Agent.  The Claim Agent may direct you to download and submit a particular form that will assist in expediting the processing of your claim.
