1 and 2 below concerning Jurisdiction, hereby stipulates and agrees to the following terms:

Jurisdiction.

1. The Association is a “savings association” within the meaning of 12 U.S.C. § 1813(b) and 12 U.S.C. § 1462(4). Accordingly, the Association is “an insured depository institution” as that term is defined in 12 U.S.C. § 1813(c).

2. Pursuant to 12 U.S.C. § 1813(q), the Director of the OTS is the “appropriate Federal banking agency” with jurisdiction to maintain an administrative enforcement proceeding against a savings association. Therefore, the Association is subject to the authority of the OTS to initiate and maintain an administrative cease and desist proceeding against it pursuant to 12 U.S.C. § 1818(b).

OTS Findings of Fact.

3. Based on its July 6, 2009 examination of the Association, the OTS finds that the Association has failed to correct deficiencies in its operations, failed to comply with the requirements of laws and regulations to which the Association is subject and/or engaged in practices considered to be unsafe and unsound including:

(a) operating the Association with a board of directors that has failed to exercise proper oversight of the Association; and

(b) operating the Association without experienced managers, and failing to establish and implement an appropriate management succession plan as previously required by the OTS.

Consent.

4. The Association consents to the issuance by the OTS of the accompanying Order to Cease and Desist (Order). The Association further agrees to comply with the terms of the Order upon the Effective Date of the Order and stipulates that the Order complies with all requirements

of law.

Finality.

5. The Order is issued by the OTS under 12 U.S.C. § 1818(b). Upon the Effective Date, the Order shall be a final order, effective, and fully enforceable by the OTS under the provisions of 12 U.S.C. § 1818(i).

Waivers.

6. The Association waives the following:

(a) the right to be served with a written notice of the OTS’s charges against it as provided by 12 U.S.C. § 1818(b) and 12 C.F.R. Part 509;

(b) the right to an administrative hearing of the OTS’s charges as provided by 12 U.S.C. § 1818(b) and 12 C.F.R. Part 509;

(c) the right to seek judicial review of the Order, including, without limitation, any such right provided by 12 U.S.C. § 1818(h), or otherwise to challenge the validity of the Order; and

(d) any and all claims against the OTS, including its employees and agents, and any other governmental entity for the award of fees, costs, or expenses related to this OTS enforcement matter and/or the Order, whether arising under common law, federal statutes, or otherwise.

OTS Authority Not Affected.

7. Nothing in this Stipulation or accompanying Order shall inhibit, estop, bar, or otherwise prevent the OTS from taking any other action affecting the Association if at any time the OTS deems it appropriate to do so to fulfill the responsibilities placed upon the OTS by law.

Miscellaneous.

9. The laws of the United States of America shall govern the construction and validity of this Stipulation and of the Order.

11. All references to the OTS in this Stipulation and the Order shall also mean any of the OTS’s predecessors, successors, and assigns.
