DAN MULLIN,

Former Manager of Searles Lake FCU
Trona, California.

Docket No. 98-0601-VI

STIPULATION AND CONSENT

TO ISSUANCE OF AN ORDER OF PROHIBITION

Dan Mullin ("Mullin"), former Manager of Searles Lake Federal Credit Union, Trona, California ("Searles Lake"), and the National Credit Union Administration Board ("NCUAB"), acting by and through its Counsel, hereby make this Stipulation and Consent to Issuance of an Order of Prohibition ("Stipulation").

Mullin and the NCUAB hereby stipulate and agree as follows:

1. Consideration. The NCUAB is of the opinion that grounds exist to initiate an administrative prohibition action against Mullin pursuant to Section 206(g) of the Federal Credit Union Act ("FCUA"), 12 U.S.C. § 1786(g). Mullin, without admitting or denying that said grounds exist (except those set forth as to Jurisdiction in paragraph 2), desires to avoid the time, cost and expense of administrative litigation. Accordingly, Mullin consents to the issuance by NCUAB of an Order of Prohibition ("Order") in consideration of the settlement, compromise and resolution of all potential administrative claims and charges that have been or might be asserted by NCUAB against Mullin arising out of his position with Searles Lake.

2. Jurisdiction. Pursuant to its authority under Section 206 of the FCUA, 12 U.S.C.

§ 1786, the NCUAB is the appropriate Federal agency to maintain an administrative action against an "institution-affiliated party." Mullin is an "institution-affiliated party" within the meaning of Section 206(r) of the FCUA, 12 U.S.C. § 1786(r). Accordingly, Mullin admits the jurisdiction of the NCUAB over him and over the subject matter of this action

3. Finality. Mullin consents to the issuance of the Order, and agrees to comply with all of its terms. The Order complies with all requirements of law, and issues pursuant to Section 206 of the FCUA, 12 U.S.C. § 1786. Upon its issuance, the Order is final, effective and fully enforceable by the NCUAB. The laws of the United States of America govern the construction and validity of this Stipulation and the Order, and the section and paragraph headings do not affect the interpretation of this Stipulation or the Order.

4. Waivers. Mullin waives his right to an administrative hearing provided by Section 206(g)(4) of the FCUA, 12 U.S.C. § 1786(g)(4). Mullin further waives his right to seek judicial review of the Order, or otherwise challenge the validity or legality of the Order.

5. Other Actions. Pursuant to this Stipulation, Mullin hereby agrees that the Order is solely for the purpose of settling and resolving NCUAB's claims against him, as provided by paragraph 1 of this Stipulation, and does not release, discharge, compromise, settle, dismiss, resolve, or in any way affect any actions, claims, charges against, or liabilities that arise in connection with his former or current affiliations with Searles Lake, or any affiliate thereof, and that may be or have been brought by any other Federal or state government agency or entity other than the NCUAB.

WHEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, Dan Mullin and the National Credit Union Administration Board execute this Stipulation and Consent to the Issuance of an Order of Prohibition.
