General Information and Instructions
This Interagency Biographical and Financial Report (report) is used by individuals1 in
conjunction with other corporate filings to the appropriate regulatory agency. This report is not
a stand-alone document.
Preparation
Use of this report format is not mandatory. If an alternative format is used, it must provide all
requested information, including the certification. All questions must be answered with
complete and accurate information that is subject to verification. If the answer is “none,” “not
applicable,” or “unknown,” so state. Answers of “unknown” or “yes” should be explained.
The questions are not intended to limit the presentation nor are the questions intended to
duplicate information supplied on another form or in an exhibit. For example, a cross-reference
to the information is acceptable. Any cross-reference must be made to a specific cite or location
in the documents, so the information can be located easily. Use additional sheets as necessary.
Each regulatory agency will provide additional instructions for use and preparation. If the report
is not complete, the regulatory agency may either request additional information or return the
filing. If you are a foreign national or a United States citizen who currently resides in a foreign
country, additional information may be necessary.
Financial statements from individuals must have “as of” dates of not more than 90 days prior to

A company seeking to acquire direct or indirect control of a bank or thrift should consult with the appropriate
regulatory agency for filing instructions.

i

the date the financial report is submitted. All amounts in this report must be based on current
market value in United States dollars2 and agree with any totals in the supplementary schedules.
In addition to the sample financial schedules, you may wish to provide supplementary schedules
for other items on the financial statement. If the sample financial statement is used, an answer is
required to each item. If you submit an alternative Financial Report format, the information
must respond to each request for information contained in the sample Financial Report.
In addition, each regulatory agency specifically reserves the right to require up to five years of
financial data from any acquiring person as well as the filing of additional information or
statements, such as a federal income tax return or a current appraisal to support an asset's value.
If you have been convicted of any criminal offense involving dishonesty, breach of trust, or
money laundering, or have agreed to enter into a pretrial diversion or similar program in
connection with a prosecution of such offense (12 U.S.C. § 1829), you must obtain approval
from the FDIC before you can own, control, participate in the affairs of, or become an
institution-affiliated party of a depository institution.
Each individual must report promptly any material change in the biographical report or financial
condition that occurs during the review period for the filing. For additional information
regarding the processing procedures and guidelines and any supplemental information that may
be required, refer to the appropriate regulatory agency's procedural guidelines (that is, the
Comptroller's Licensing Manual, the FDIC's Rules and Regulations (12 C.F.R. Part 303), or the
OTS' Application Processing Handbook), contact the agency directly for specific instruction, or
visit its Web site at www.occ.treas.gov, www.fdic.gov, www.ots.treas.gov, or
www.federalreserve.gov.

shareholder or owner.

savings association, savings bank, savings and loan association, building and loan association,

holds (either individually or as a member of a group) the power to vote 10 percent or more of
any class of voting securities or other voting equity interest of the entity.
Confidentiality
Any individual desiring confidential treatment of specific portions of the report must submit a
request in writing with the report. The request must discuss the justification for the requested
treatment. The individual'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. section 552). Information for which
confidential treatment is requested should be: (1) specifically identified in the public portion of
the report (by reference to the confidential section); (2) separately bound; and (3) labeled
“Confidential.” The individual should follow the same procedure for a request for confidential
treatment for the subsequent filing of supplemental information to the report.
The individual should contact the appropriate regulatory agency for specific instructions
regarding requests for confidential treatment. The agency will determine whether the
information will be treated as confidential and will advise the individual of any decision to make
available to the public information labeled “Confidential.”

Privacy Act Notice
The solicitation and collection of this information, including a Social Security Number, is authorized by those
statutes that require an appropriate federal banking agency to determine the competence, experience, integrity, and
financial ability of individuals proposing to serve a federally regulated financial institution in an official capacity –
that is, as a director, officer, employee, or principal shareholder. These statutes include: 12 U.S.C. § 27 (national
bank charters); 12 U.S.C. § 1464 (federal savings bank charters); 12 U.S.C. § 1815 (federal deposit insurance); 12
U.S.C. § 1817(j) (changes in control of insured depository institutions); and 12 U.S.C. § 1831(i) (agency disapproval
of directors and senior executive officers of insured depository institutions or depository institution holding
companies). The provision of requested information, including a Social Security Number, is voluntary. However,
the failure to provide any requested information may result in denial, disapproval, or delay in the processing of an
application or notice.
Depending on the manner in which an appropriate federal banking agency maintains solicited information, some or
all of that information may be subject to the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. § 552a. In such instances, disclosures of
covered information may be made to: (1) third parties to complete background checks; (2) financial institutions for
supervisory purposes; (3) governmental, tribal, self-regulatory, or professional organizations when information is
relevant to either a known or suspected violation of law or licensing standard or relevant and necessary to the
governmental or self-regulatory organization’s regulation or supervision of financial service providers; (4) the
Department of Justice, a court, an adjudicative body, a party in litigation, or a witness when relevant and necessary
to a legal or administrative proceeding; (5) congressional offices when the information is relevant to an inquiry
initiated on behalf of its provider; (6) an agency’s contractors or agents; and (7) other third parties when mandated or
authorized by statute.
Additionally, while certain of the solicited information is exempt from disclosure under the Freedom of Information
Act because disclosure would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy, other information is not
exempt. Nonexempt information will ordinarily include the names of individuals, the financial institutions that they
propose to serve, the statutory context in which information has been provided, and prior bank-related employment
and affiliation.

CERTIFICATION
*If a joint financial statement is being submitted, both parties should complete the “Certification.”

I understand that the appropriate regulatory agency may conduct extensive checks into my
background, experience, and related matters in conjunction with my application or filing.
I certify that the information contained in the biographical report and financial report, including
all attachments, has been carefully examined by me and is true, correct, and complete. I
acknowledge that any misrepresentation or omission of a material fact constitutes fraud in the
inducement and may subject me to legal sanctions provided by 18 U.S.C. §§ 1001 and 1007.
