The OCC
is requesting renewal of OMB’s approval
of the following information collection.
Title of Collection: Capital
Distribution.
OMB Control Number: 1557–0310.
Form Number: 1583.
Description: Under the OCC’s rules
governing capital distributions at 12
CFR part 163, subpart E, a Federal
savings association (FSA) must file a
capital distribution application with the
OCC if: (1) It is not eligible for expedited
treatment under 12 CFR 116.5; (2) the
total amount of the its capital
distributions (including the proposed
capital distribution) for the applicable
calendar year exceeds its net income for
that year to date, plus retained net
income for the preceding two years; (3)
it would not be at least adequately
capitalized, as set forth in 12 CFR 6.4,
after the capital distribution; or (4) the
proposed capital distribution would
violate any applicable statute,
regulation, or agreement with the OCC
or the OTS, or violate a condition
imposed on it in connection with an
application or notice approved by the
OCC or the OTS. 12 CFR 163.143(a).
If an FSA is not required to file a
capital distribution application, it may
be required to file a capital distribution
notice with the OCC if: (1) It would not
be well capitalized following the capital
distribution as set forth in 12 CFR
165.4(b)(1); (2) the proposed capital
distribution would reduce the amount
of or retire any part of its common or
preferred stock, or retire any part of debt
instruments (such as notes or
debentures) included in capital under
12 CFR part 3 or part 167, as applicable,
(other than regular payments required
under a debt instrument approved
under 12 CFR 163.81); or (3) it is a
subsidiary of a savings and loan holding
company. 12 CFR 163.143(b).
If neither an FSA nor its proposed
capital distribution meet the criteria
described above, the FSA is not required
to file an application or notice with the
OCC. 12 CFR 163.143(c). However, if the
FSA is required to file a notice with the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal
agencies must obtain approval from
OMB for each collection of information
they conduct or sponsor. ‘‘Collection of
information’’ is defined in 44 U.S.C.
3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) to include
agency requests or requirements that
members of the public submit reports,
keep records, or provide information to
a third party. Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A))
requires Federal agencies to provide a
60-day notice in the Federal Register

concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each proposed
extension of an existing collection of
information, before submitting the
collection to OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, the OCC
is publishing notice of the proposed
collection of information set forth in
this document.
OMB granted the OCC a six-month
approval for the information collection
requirements contained in the interim
final rule entitled ‘‘Subordinated Debt
Issued by a National Bank.’’ (December
2014 Interim Final Rule).1 The OCC
obtained this approval under existing
OMB Control No. 1557–0320, which
contained the information collection
requirements in the interim final rule
entitled ‘‘Basel III Conforming
Amendments Related to CrossReferences, Subordinated Debt and
Limits Based on Regulatory Capital.’’
(February 2014 Interim Final Rule).2
The OCC proposes to extend OMB
approval of the entire information
collection for the standard three years.
Title: Subordinated Debt.
OMB Control No.: 1557–0320.
Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit.
Burden Estimates:
Prepayment of Subordinated Debt in
Form of Call Option: 184 Respondents;
1.30 burden hours per respondent; 239
total burden hours.
Authority to Limit Distributions: 42
Respondents; 0.5 hours per respondent;
21 total burden hours.
Total Burden: 260 hours.
Description: The OCC amended its
rules governing subordinated debt twice
in 2014. The first set of revisions,
contained in the February 2014 Interim
Final Rule, amended the rules
applicable to both national banks and
Federal savings associations (12 CFR
5.47 and 163.81, respectively). The
second revisions, in the December 2014
Interim Final Rule, amended only the
rules application to national banks.
The February 2014 Interim Final Rule
revised the requirements of 12 CFR 5.47
applicable to national banks.
Specifically, those revisions require that
all national banks must receive prior
OCC approval in order to prepay
subordinated debt that is included in
tier 2 capital and certain banks must
receive prior OCC approval to prepay
subordinated debt that is not included
in tier 2 capital. If the prepayment is in
the form of a call option and the
subordinated debt is included in tier 2
capital, a national bank must submit the
