The terms of the CPP are described generally in this application. However, this description is
not binding on the Treasury and is intended to provide general information only. The actual
terms and conditions of the CPP are contained in documentation that will be available from the
Treasury Department on its web site at http://www.treas.gov/initiatives/eesa/.
Eligible Institutions
The CPP is available to bank holding companies, financial holding companies, insured
depository institutions and savings and loan holding companies that engage solely or
predominately in activities that are permissible for financial holding companies under relevant
law. To qualify, the applicant must be established and operating in the United States and may
not be controlled by a foreign bank or company.
Institutions must consult with their appropriate FBA prior to submitting this application.
Certain Conditions for Participation in the CPP

To be eligible for the CPP, the applicant must receive the approval of the Treasury. In addition,
the applicant must agree to certain terms and conditions and make certain representations and
warranties described in various agreements prepared by the Treasury and available on Treasury’s
website. A summary term sheet is currently available on Treasury’s website and a detailed
investment agreement and associated documentation will be posted soon. Each applicant must
obtain and review a copy of these agreements and agree to all of the terms and conditions,
including representations and warranties, contained in these agreements. In the event the
applicant files an application with the appropriate FBA prior to the availability of the investment
agreement, the applicant must file an amended application which includes updated responses to
any items in the application that required prior review of the investment agreement.
In the event that an applicant cannot, by November 14, 2008, take action to be in compliance
with all of the terms and conditions, including the representations and warranties, contained in
the Treasury agreements, the applicant must provide an explanation of the condition or
conditions that cannot be met and the reasons the condition or conditions cannot be met. This
explanation must be attached to the application. Failure to agree to all terms and conditions may
result in disqualification from the CPP.
If the applicant receives preliminary approval to participate in the CPP from the Treasury, the
applicant will have 30 days from the date of notification to submit the investment agreements
and related documentation.
Among the conditions to participation in the CPP is the requirement that, for so long as the
Treasury owns shares or warrants in the applicant, certain senior officers of the applicant meet
standards established by the Treasury for executive compensation in certain circumstances.
These standards are explained on the Treasury web site at:
http://www.treas.gov/initiatives/eesa/executivecompensation.shtml.
For the first three years that the Treasury owns shares or warrants in the applicant, the applicant
may not increase its dividend payments on common shares without the permission of the
Treasury. In addition, the applicant may not repurchase or redeem any junior preferred shares,
preferred shares ranking pari passu with the Senior Preferred, trust preferred, or common shares
(other than in connection with certain employee benefit programs) during the first three years of
the investment without the permission of the Treasury.
Form of Capital Qualifying for Purchase
All capital purchases will occur at the highest-tier holding company in cases in which the
banking organization has a bank holding company or a savings and loan holding company. In
these cases, the capital eligible for purchase by the Treasury under the CPP is cumulative
perpetual preferred stock of the highest tier holding company. The shares must be pari passu
with the most senior preferred shares available by the applicant.
In the case of an insured depository institution that is not controlled by a company, the capital
eligible for purchase by the Treasury under the CPP is non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock

of the insured depository institution. The shares must be pari passu with the most senior
preferred shares available by the applicant.
The maximum amount of capital eligible for purchase by the Treasury under the CPP is the
lesser of (i) an amount equal to 3 percent of the Total Risk-Weighted Assets of the applicant or
(ii) $25 billion. The minimum amount eligible for purchase under the CPP is the amount equal
to 1 percent of the Total Risk-Weighted Assets of the applicant. All measurements will be based
on the information contained in the latest quarterly supervisory report filed by the applicant with
its appropriate FBA, updated to reflect events materially affecting the financial condition of the
applicant occurring since the filing of such report.
The shares purchased by the Treasury will have a dividend rate of 5 percent per year until the
fifth anniversary of the date of the investment and a dividend rate of 9 percent per year
thereafter. Dividends not paid must cumulate over the life of the investment in the case of shares
purchased from a holding company for an insured depository institution. Shares may be
redeemed by the applicant during the first three years following the investment only from the
proceeds of a qualifying stock issuance by the applicant.
In all cases, the Treasury also must obtain warrants for common stock of the applicant. The
terms of the warrants are explained in the Treasury agreements available on the Treasury web
site. In general, the warrants must be convertible into an amount of common stock of the
applicant equivalent in value to 15 percent of the amount of the capital purchased by the
Treasury from the applicant under the CPP, calculated based on the average of closing prices of
the common stock on the 20 trading days ending on and including the last trading day prior to the
date of execution of the Purchase Agreement.
Other Information
The applicant must identify and describe any mergers, acquisitions, or other capital raisings that
are currently pending or are under negotiation and the expected consummation date.
Confidentiality
Any applicant desiring confidential treatment of specific portions of the application must submit
a request in writing with the application. The request must discuss the justification for the
requested treatment. The applicant's reasons for requesting confidentiality should specifically
demonstrate the harm (for example, loss of competitive position, invasion of privacy) that would
result from public release of information (5 U.S.C. 552). Information for which confidential
treatment is requested should be: (1) specifically identified in the public portion of the
application (by reference to the confidential section); (2) separately bound; and (3) labeled
"Confidential." The applicant should follow the same procedure when requesting confidential
treatment for the subsequent filing of supplemental information to the application.
The applicant should contact the appropriate regulatory agency for specific instructions
regarding requests for confidential treatment. The appropriate regulatory agency will determine

whether the information will be treated as confidential and will advise the applicant of any
decision to make available to the public information labeled as "Confidential."
