Inactive Financial Institution Letters Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Office of the Comptroller of the Currency Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System FIL-101-2008 BANK REPORTS TO: CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER SUBJECT: Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income for Third Quarter 2008 The attached material pertains to the Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income (Call Report) for the September 30, 2008, report date. Please plan to complete the preparation, editing, and review of your banks Call Report data and the submission of these data to the agencies Central Data Repository (CDR) as early as possible. Starting your preparation early will aid you in identifying and resolving any edit exceptions prior to the submission deadline. If you later find that certain information needs to be revised, please make the appropriate changes to your Call Report data and promptly submit the revised data file to the CDR. Except for certain banks with foreign offices, your completed Call Report must be received by Thursday, October 30, 2008, in accordance with the filing requirements discussed below. No extensions of time for submitting Call Report data are granted. Consistent with the agencies September 7, 2008, press release concerning the takeover of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, banks are reminded that investments in perpetual preferred stock and common stock with readily determinable fair values, unless held for trading purposes, should be reported as available-for-sale equity security holdings in Call Report Schedule RC-B, item 7. Perpetual preferred stock does not have a stated maturity date and cannot be redeemed at the option of the investor, although it may be redeemable at the option of the issuer. All currently outstanding preferred stock issued by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac is perpetual. In contrast, preferred stock that by its terms either must be redeemed by the issuer or is redeemable at the option of the investor is considered a debt security for financial and regulatory reporting purposes and, unless held for trading purposes, should be reported in Schedule RC B, item 6. Banks should review their investments in preferred stock and ensure that they properly report these securities. Sample Call Report forms for September 30, 2008, are available on both the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Councils (FFIEC) Web site (http://www.ffiec.gov/ffiec_report_forms.htm) and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporations (FDIC) Web site (http://www.fdic.gov/regulations/resources/call/index.html). There is no update to the Call Report instruction book this quarter. Banks should also refer to this quarters attached Supplemental Instructions for additional guidance on certain reporting issues. Report forms and instructional materials can be both printed and downloaded from the FFIECs and the FDICs Web sites. Please notify the person responsible for preparing Call Reports at your bank about the electronic availability of the report forms and Supplemental Instructions for September 2008.

Electronic submission of Call Report data will be considered timely if the data are received by the CDR no later than Thursday, October 30, 2008, and pass FFIEC-published validation criteria (validity edits and quality edits) or, where necessary, contain explanations for any quality edits that are not passed. Explanatory comments should be prepared consistent with the Guidelines for Resolving Edits that are published on the FFIECs Web site at http://www.ffiec.gov/find/documents/resolvingedits.pdf (PDF Help). A bank that has more than one foreign office, other than a shell branch or an International Banking Facility, is permitted an additional five calendar days to submit its Call Report data. Such a bank must electronically transmit its data to the CDR no later than Tuesday, November 4, 2008. In addition, on or about each April 30 and October 30, the FDIC conducts a telephone survey of some banks with more than one foreign office to obtain certain deposit data needed to estimate insured deposits.
