Order Granting an Application of
Peoples Financial Corporation Under
Section 12(h) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934
March 31, 2006.
Peoples Financial Corporation has
filed an application under Section 12(h)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, for certain relief. Peoples
states that its principal executive offices
are located in Biloxi, Mississippi, which
is within one of the Presidentially
Declared Disaster Areas where
Individual Assistance has been
authorized by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency as a result of
Hurricane Katrina, and that its sixteen
branch facilities are also located in the
Disaster Areas. In its application,
Peoples asserts that the relief is
necessary due to, among other things,
the extraordinary impact of Hurricane
Katrina on Peoples’s facilities,
personnel, customers, and independent
public accountants. For example, the
application indicates that: (1) Peoples,
which is a bank holding company, lost
six of the sixteen branch locations of its
bank subsidiary, The Peoples Bank; (2)
more than twenty percent of its
employees lost their homes, another
twenty-five percent had serious
damages to their homes and several of
Peoples’s branches served as temporary
housing for employees; and (3) company
personnel have had to focus on on-going
post-Katrina recovery issues such as
evaluation of the loan portfolio and
recovery and decontamination of items
from vaults and safe deposit boxes.
Further, the application states that: (1)
The Biloxi, Mississippi office of
Peoples’s independent public
accountants, which housed all of their
hard copy records and computer files,
was destroyed and more than twentyfive percent of their professional and

Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 66 / Thursday, April 6, 2006 / Notices
support staff have relocated out of the
area; and (2) Peoples was the only client
of its independent public accountants
that is subject to the reporting
requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of
the Exchange Act. Accordingly, Peoples
has asked the Commission that Peoples
be required to first include the
disclosures specified in paragraphs (a)
and (b) of Item 308 of Regulation S–K
and first comply with Exchange Act
Rule 13a–15(c) for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2006.
On March 10, 2006, the Commission
issued a notice of the filing of the
application and provided, until March
30, 2006, an opportunity for interested
persons to request a hearing. In its
March 10, 2006 notice, the Commission
stated that an order disposing of the
application might be issued upon the
basis of the information stated therein
unless a hearing should be ordered. No
request for a hearing has been filed and
the Commission has not ordered a
hearing.
The matter having been considered, it
is found that the requested relief is
appropriate in the public interest and
consistent with the protection of
investors and the purposes fairly
intended by the policy and provisions of
the Exchange Act.
It is ordered, pursuant to Section
12(h) of the Exchange Act, that the
application requesting that Peoples be
required to first include the disclosures
specified in paragraphs (a) and (b) of
Item 308 of Regulation S–K and first
comply with Exchange Act Rule 13a–
15(c) for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2006, be, and hereby is, granted,
effective immediately.

Corporation Finance, pursuant to delegated
authority.
