   Respondent agrees to pay civil money penalty assessed by the FDIC in the amount of $1,300.

In the Matter of
CAPE ANN SAVINGS BANK
GLOUCESTER, MASSACHUSETTS
(Insured State Nonmember Bank)
ORDER TO PAY

FDIC-01-043k

   CAPE ANN SAVINGS BANK, GLOUCESTER, MASSACHUSETTS, has been advised of the right to receive a NOTICE OF ASSESSMENT OF CIVIL MONEY PENALTY, FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW, and NOTICE OF HEARING ("NOTICE") issued by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC")
{{6-30-02 p.C-5154}}

   detailing the violations for which a civil money penalty may be assessed against the Bank pursuant to the Flood Disaster Protection Act ("Flood Act"), as amended, 42 U.S.C. §4012a, section 8(i)(2) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act ("FDI Act") 12 U.S.C. §1818(i)(2), and Parts 308 and 339 of the FDIC Rules and Regulations, 12 C.F.R. Parts 308 and 339, and has been further advised of the right to a hearing on the alleged charges under the Flood Act, 42 U.S.C. §4012a(f), section 8(i) of the FDI Act, 12 U.S.C. §1818(i), and the FDIC Rules of Practice and Procedure, 12 C.F.R. Part 308.

   Having waived those rights, the Bank entered into a STIPULATION AND CONSENT TO THE ISSUANCE OF AN ORDER TO PAY ("CONSENT AGREEMENT") with a representative of the Legal Division of the FDIC, whereby solely for the purpose of this proceeding and without admitting or denying any violations, the Bank consented and agreed to pay a civil money penalty in the amount of $1,300 related to its failure to ensure, on 13 out of 41 loans secured by improved real estate located in special flood hazard areas, that the borrowers maintained adequate flood insurance as required by the Flood Act and Part 339 of the FDIC's Rules and Regulations.

   The FDIC considered the matter and determined it had reason to believe that the Bank has engaged or participated in violations of law or regulations for which a civil money penalty of $1,300 is appropriate to be assessed against the Bank, pursuant to the Flood Act, 42 U.S.C. §4012a, section 8(i)(2) of the FDI Act, 12 U.S.C. §1818(i)(2), and Parts 308 and 339 of the FDIC Rules and Regulations, 12 C.F.R. Parts 308 and 339.

   The FDIC therefore accepts the CONSENT AGREEMENT and issues the following:

ORDER TO PAY
CIVIL MONEY PENALTY

   IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that CAPE ANN SAVINGS BANK, GLOUCESTER, MASSACHUSETTS, be, and hereby is, assessed a civil money penalty of $1,300 pursuant to the Flood Act, 42 U.S.C. §4012a, section 8(i)(2) of the FDI Act, 12 U.S.C. §1818(i)(2), and Parts 308 and 339 of the FDIC Rules and Regulations, 12 C.F.R. Parts 308 and 339, the receipt of which is acknowledged.

   This Order to Pay shall be effective upon issuance.

   Pursuant to delegated authority.

   Dated at Washington, D.C., this 14th day of June, 2001.
