Left Navigation Investments & Activities
Real Estate - Leasing (2% of Tier 1 capital or less)
Bank may indirectly through a wholly-owned subsidiary engage in the leasing of real property under certain circumstances involving
2% of Tier 1 Capital or less.
Disclaimer
The following list shows those activities and investments approved by the FDIC under Section 24 of the
Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Part 362 of the FDIC’s Rules and Regulations, 12 C.F.R. Part 362. The list provides
insured state banks and their counsel some initial guidance regarding activities and investments that the FDIC may approve
under Section 24. However, the fact that a particular activity or investment has received FDIC approval in the past does not
affect the obligation of another institution to seek permission from the FDIC to engage in the same or similar activity.
Additionally, the fact that a particular investment or activity has been approved in the past does not restrict the FDIC's review
of future requests to engage in similar activities nor our ability to impose prudential standards on the conduct of that activity.
Finally, it should be borne in mind that since the time any particular application was approved, key statutory or regulatory
changes may have taken place, which might impact how the issues would be treated today.

requested permission from the State to acquire a tract of raw land containing approximately 36 acres. The
