For purposes of granting a limited priority claim to the assets of the Surviving Bank, in the unlikely event (and only upon such event) of a complete liquidation of the Surviving Bank to persons who maintained savings accounts with River at the Effective Time and continue to maintain savings accounts with the Surviving Bank after the Merger, and who, immediately prior to the Effective Time had a subaccount balance (as described in 12 C.F.R. § 563b.3(f)(4)) with respect to any liquidation account of River, the Surviving Bank shall, at the time of the Merger, establish a liquidation account(s) in an amount equal to the liquidation account(s) of such persons immediately prior to the Effective Time, which liquidation account(s) shall participate pari passu with any other liquidation accounts of the Surviving Bank. If the balance in any savings account to which a subaccount balance relates at the close of business on the last day of any fiscal year of the resulting institution after the Effective Time is less than the balance in such savings account at the Effective Time or at the close of business on the last day of any other fiscal year of the resulting institution after the Effective Time, such subaccount balance shall be reduced in an amount proportionate to the reduction in such savings account balance. No subaccount balance shall be increased, notwithstanding any increase in the balance of the related savings account. If such related savings account is closed, such subaccount shall be reduced to zero upon such closing. In the event of a complete liquidation of the Surviving Bank, and only in such event, the amount distributable to each accountholder will be determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency pertaining to conversions by savings associations from mutual to stock form of organization, on the basis of such accountholder’s subaccount balance with the Surviving Bank at the time of its liquidation. No merger, consolidation, purchase of bulk assets with assumption of savings accounts and other liabilities, or similar transaction, whether or not the resulting institution is the surviving institution, will be deemed to be a complete liquidation for this purpose, and, in any such transaction, the liquidation account shall be assumed by the surviving institution.
