Account(s):

Legacy Bank, Wiley, CO. All deposit accounts,
which include checking, savings, money market, CDs and retirement accounts,
have been transferred to Legacy Bank, regardless
of the dollar amount. No one lost any money on deposit in Southern

Customers of both banks should continue to use their existing branches until

To forewarn you of any scams, please be advised that you will not receive
any e-mail notification from the FDIC, the Receiver, or Legacy Bank to claim/unlock/unsuspend your account or to provide
any private information. Please be watchful for and resist any such scams to
obtain information from you by individuals or entities purporting to act on

ATM/debit card and/or Billpay:
What about my ATM/debit card and/or bill paying with Southern
Colorado National Bank?
Your ATM/debit card will continue to work and bill paying will
work as it has in the past.
Brokered Deposits:
I am a deposit broker or have brokered deposits. What do I do?
As an All-Deposits Transfer transaction, the total of
all deposit accounts have
been assumed by Legacy Bank.
Be advised, however, that from and after the date of closing,
Legacy Bank will accrue and pay interest on deposit liabilities at a rate it shall determine; accordingly,
Legacy Bank shall permit depositors, including brokered depositors, impacted by reduced rates to withdraw their deposits without penalty for early withdrawal.
Direct Deposits - Government Deposits:
What will happen to my direct deposits?
Direct Deposits, including Social Security checks, will continue as normal.
Existing Deposits at Legacy Bank:
I already have other deposit accounts with the new bank. When combined
with balances at this bank, my deposits exceed $250,000. Are all
funds insured?
The accounts transferred to Legacy Bank
will be separately insured for at least six months after the merger. This
grace period gives a depositor the opportunity to restructure the accounts,
if necessary.
CDs from the failed bank are separately insured until the earliest maturity date after the end of the
six-month grace period.
CDs that mature during the six-month period and are renewed for the same term and in the same dollar
amount (either with or without accrued interest) continue to be separately insured until the first maturity
date after the six-month period.
If a CD matures during the six-month grace period and is renewed on any other basis, it would be
separately insured only until the end of the six-month grace period.
Interest Rates, Early Withdrawal Penalty:
Will I continue to earn interest at the same rate? Will I be charged an early withdrawal penalty?
Interest on all deposits accrued through Friday, October 2, 2009, will
be paid at your then existing rate. Legacy Bank
will review rates and notify you if interest rates will change.
You may withdraw funds from any transferred account without
an early withdrawal penalty until you enter into a new deposit agreement
with Legacy Bank. Entering into a new deposit agreement can be done by
either renewing your CD or making a deposit to or a withdrawal from your
account.
Loans/mortgages:
What about my loan or mortgage with Southern Colorado National Bank?
All mortgages and loans have been assumed by Legacy Bank. Your payment amount and due date are the same. If you are

has in the past. You should continue to make your checks payable to
Southern Colorado National Bank and send your payments to the same address.

Transaction Types:
Why do all deposits, insured or not, pass in some transactions but not in others?
The FDIC is required by law to employ the least-cost resolution measure for each failed
financial institution. The most frequent result is for the FDIC to transfer only the
insured deposits in a merger transaction. The FDIC has been able to transfer all
deposits in about 25% of the failures over the past 15 years.
Unpaid Bills:
I did some work for the bank and have not been paid. What should I
do?
All claims against Southern Colorado National Bank, together with proof of the claims, must
be submitted in writing to the Receiver at the following address:
FDIC as Receiver for Southern Colorado National Bank
1601 N. Bryan Street
