SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
February 15, 2008, Bank of America
Corporation, Charlotte, North Carolina
(‘‘Bank of America’’) requested the
Board’s approval under the BHC Act
and related statutes to acquire
Countrywide Financial Corporation,
Calabasas, California (‘‘Countrywide’’),
and thereby acquire Countrywide’s
wholly owned savings association
subsidiary, Countrywide Bank, FSB, as
well as Countrywide’s other nonbanking
subsidiaries. The Board hereby orders
that public meetings on the Bank of
America/Countrywide proposal be held
in Los Angeles, California, and Chicago,
Illinois.
Purpose and Procedures
The public meetings will collect
information relating to factors the Board
is required to consider under the BHC
Act. The factors the BHC Act requires
the Board to consider include whether
the notificant’s performance of the
activities can reasonably be expected to
produce benefits to the public (such as
greater convenience, increased
competition, and gains in efficiency)
that outweigh possible adverse effects
(such as undue concentration of
resources, decreased or unfair
competition, conflicts of interests, and
unsound banking practices).
Consideration of the above factors
includes an evaluation of the financial
and managerial resources of the
notificant, including its subsidiaries,
and any company to be acquired; the
effect of the proposed transaction on
those resources; and the management
expertise, internal control and riskmanagement systems, and capital of the
entity conducting the activity. In acting
on a notice to acquire a savings
association, the Board also reviews the
records of performance of the insured
depository institutions involved in the
proposal under the Community
Reinvestment Act, which requires the
Board to take into account a relevant
institution’s record of meeting the credit
needs of its entire community,
