qualifying capital in U.S. banking organizations.
The application must be submitted to the appropriate Federal banking agency (FBA) for the
applicant. If the applicant is a bank holding company, the application should be submitted to
both the applicant's holding company supervisor and the supervisor of the largest insured
depository institution controlled by the applicant. All inquiries regarding preparation of the
application should be directed to the appropriate FBA for the applicant.
All applications must be submitted no later than 5pm (EST), May 25, 2009. Institutions will
have up to six months after receiving preliminary approval to close the transaction. Institutions
taking part in the special forward-looking economic assessments in conjunction with their
supervisors (those with assets in excess of $100 billion) need not wait for the conclusion of those
assessments to apply.

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. For purposes of CAP eligibility, the deadline
for approval of any holding company application is January 15, 2009, i.e. the same as the
deadline for such eligibility under the Capital Purchase Program.
Institutions must consult with their appropriate FBA prior to submitting this application.
Certain Conditions for Participation in the CAP
To be eligible for the CAP, 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 that will be prepared by the Treasury and available
on Treasury’s website. A summary term sheet for publicly traded institutions is currently
available on Treasury’s website and separate term sheets are expected to be made available for
institutions that are not publicly traded or are organized as subchapter S corporations or in
mutual form. Detailed investment agreements 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 May 25, 2009, 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 CAP.
If the applicant receives preliminary approval to participate in the CAP from the Treasury, the
applicant will have up to six months from the date of notification to submit the investment
agreements and related documentation.
Among the conditions to participation in the CAP is the requirement that the applicant and its
covered officers and employees must agree to comply with the rules, regulations and guidance of
the Treasury with respect to executive compensation, transparency, accountability and
monitoring, as published and in effect at the time of the investment closing. These rules,
regulations and guidance are explained on the following websites:
http://www.treas.gov/initiatives/eesa/ and http://financialstability.gov/.
Form of Capital Qualifying for Purchase
The capital eligible for purchase by the Treasury under the CAP is cumulative mandatorily
convertible preferred stock of the publicly traded bank holding company, financial holding

2

company, savings and loan holding company, or insured depository institution. The shares must
be pari passu with the most senior preferred shares of the applicant that are outstanding.
The issuance by the applicant of the convertible preferred stock to the Treasury will be a
“Qualified Equity Offering” under Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program to the extent the
proceeds from the sale of the convertible preferred stock are used to redeem the preferred shares
sold to the Treasury under the Capital Purchase Program in whole or in part in accordance with
their terms (thus effecting an “exchange” of the convertible preferred stock for the preferred
shares sold under the Capital Purchase Program). Proceeds that are used to redeem the preferred
shares sold to the Treasury under the Capital Purchase Program will count towards the Qualified
Equity Offering proceeds that are required to be raised in order to reduce the number of shares of
common stock underlying the warrant issued to the Treasury under the Capital Purchase
Program. If applicable, the proceeds from the sale of the convertible preferred stock may also be
used to redeem the preferred shares sold to the Treasury under the Targeted Investment Program
in whole or in part in accordance with their terms.
Each applicant may issue an amount of convertible preferred stock equal to not less than 1% of
its risk-weighted assets and not more than 2% of its Total Risk-Weighted Assets (RWA) plus
any amount of convertible preferred stock to the extent the proceeds of such additional
convertible preferred stock are used to redeem preferred shares sold under the Capital Purchase
Program and, if applicable, the Targeted Investment Program as described above. An applicant
must receive the approval of its FBA to issue convertible preferred in excess of this amount and
will be deemed as needing “exceptional assistance.” The determination to provide such
exceptional assistance will be solely in the discretion of Treasury in consultation with the
appropriate FBA and will be made on a case-by-case basis to ensure or promote financial market
stability. Applicants receiving exceptional assistance may be subject to additional terms and
conditions.
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 convertible preferred stock will have a dividend rate of 9% per year, subject to increase in
the event certain stockholder approvals are required and not received. Dividends not paid will
cumulate over the life of the investment, compounding quarterly.
The convertible preferred stock is convertible into the applicant’s common stock in whole or
from time to time in part at the conversion price at the option of the applicant at any time, subject
to the approval of the applicant’s FBA, and convertible at the option of the holder upon specified
corporate events, including certain sales, mergers or changes of control of the applicant. The
convertible preferred stock is mandatorily convertible into the applicant’s common stock at the
conversion price after 7 years. The conversion price is 90% of the average closing price for the
applicant’s common stock for the 20 trading day period ending February 9, 2009, subject to
reduction in the event certain stockholder approvals are required and not received and subject to

3

customary anti-dilution adjustments. Upon any conversion, the issuer will also pay any accrued
and unpaid dividends at its option in either cash or shares of common stock.
The convertible preferred stock may be redeemed, subject to the approval of the applicant’s
FBA, in whole or in part at any time solely with the proceeds of an issuance of common stock for
cash which results in aggregate gross proceeds to the applicant of not less than 25% of the issue
price of the convertible preferred, or additions to retained earnings. Convertible preferred shares
redeemed within the first two years of issuance will be redeemable at par, plus any accrued and
unpaid dividends. After the first two years of issuance, convertible preferred shares will be
redeemable at the greater of par plus accrued and unpaid dividends and the as-converted value.
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 that will be available on the
Treasury’s web site. A summary term sheet is currently available on Treasury’s website. In
general, the warrants must be exercisable for an amount of common stock of the applicant
equivalent in value to 20% of the amount of the capital purchased by the Treasury from the
applicant under the CAP, calculated based on the conversion price, and must have an exercise
price equal to the conversion price, subject to reduction in the event certain stockholder
approvals are required and not received and subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments.
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."
