(a) A

Agreement. On the Closing Date, CB shall be merged with the Merger Sub pursuant to all applicable legal requirements, whereupon the separate
existence of the Merger Sub shall cease, and CB shall be the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”). Immediately
following on the Closing Date CB as the surviving corporation shall be merged with Clear, with Clear as “Surviving Corporation”
and as a wholly owned subsidiary of New Pubco.


 


(b) Continuity
of Operation. The parties will continue the operation of the Bank for not less than two (2) years following the Effective Time of
the merger.


 


2.02 Effective
Time. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VIII (other than those conditions that by their
nature are to be satisfied at the consummation of the Merger, but subject to the fulfillment or waiver of those conditions), on the tenth
(10th) Business Day of the month immediately following the month in which receipt of all necessary regulatory, corporate and other approvals
have been obtained and the expiration of any mandatory waiting periods and satisfaction of the material conditions to closing hereunder
have occurred and the parties have consummated the transactions in this Agreement (herein, the “Closing Date”), a Statement
of Merger (the “Statement of Merger”) shall be filed with the Secretaries of State of the States of Wyoming and Delaware
in accordance with applicable law together with such certificates, documents or other instruments as may be required by law, and the
Merger shall become effective upon such filing. The “Effective Time” of the Merger shall be the time of such filing or as

CONSIDERATION; EXCHANGE PROCEDURES


 


3.01 Calculation
of Merger Consideration. The calculation of adjusted book value for these purposes requires the Bank
to make available to Clear at least fifteen (15) days prior to the Closing Date all reasonably requested information regarding the status
of each loan contained in the loan portfolio of the Bank. Based on Clear’s review, any adjustment to the Bank’s allowance
for loan or lease losses, which are allowable under all applicable regulatory and GAAP, will be made by Bank prior to Closing Date. At
least five (5) days prior to the Closing Date, CB shall calculate its Adjusted Estimated Book Value, taking into consideration the above
referenced adjustment to the allowance for loan and lease losses, the Merger Consideration and the Per Share Merger Price and shall provide
Clear with a copy of such calculations together with such supporting documentation as may be reasonably requested by Clear (the “Calculation
Statement”). The Calculation Statement and calculations hereon shall fairly present the financial position of CB and the Bank in
accordance with GAAP and RAP, as applicable, and each of the Equity Capital, the Merger Consideration and the Per Share Merger Price
calculated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. No fractional shares of New Pubco Common Stock shall be issued, any such fractions
to be paid in cash based upon a $10 per share value of New Pubco Common Stock.

		c.	An
                                            election shall have been properly made only if the Paying Agent shall have actually received
                                            a properly completed Election Form by the Election Deadline. Any Election Form may be revoked
                                            or changed by the Person submitting such Election Form to the Paying Agent by written notice
                                            to the Paying Agent only if such notice of revocation or change is actually received by the
                                            Paying Agent at or prior to the Election Deadline. Shares of CB Common Stock held by holders
                                            who acquired such shares subsequent to the Election Deadline will be designated Non-Election
                                            Shares. In addition, if a Holder of CB Common Stock either (1) does not submit a properly
                                            completed Election Form in a timely fashion or (2) revokes its Election Form prior to the
                                            Election Deadline and fails to file a new properly completed Election Form before the deadline,
                                            such shares shall be designated Non-Election Shares. Subject to the terms of this Agreement
                                            and of the Election Form, the Paying Agent shall have discretion to determine whether any
                                            election, revocation or change has been properly or timely made and to disregard immaterial
                                            defects in the Election Forms, and any good faith decisions of the Paying Agent regarding
                                            such matters shall be binding and conclusive. Neither CB, Clear, New Pubco nor the Paying
                                            Agent shall be under any obligation to notify any Person of any defect in an Election Form.



 


(b) Paying
Agent. At or prior to the Effective Time, New Pubco shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent, for the
benefit of the holders of Shares the aggregate amount of Merger Consideration payable in respect of Shares pursuant to Section 3.01 upon
surrender of Certificates (the “Exchange Fund”).


 


(c) Exchange
of Certificates. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, Clear shall
cause the Paying Agent to mail to each former holder of record of Shares of CB (i) a letter of transmittal specifying that delivery shall
be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss
in lieu thereof and, if required, indemnities in accordance with Section 3.04(f) to the Paying Agent, such letter of transmittal to be
in such form and have such other provisions as Clear and CB may reasonably agree, and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender
of the Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to the Paying Agent (or
an affidavit of loss in lieu thereof and, if required, an indemnity in accordance with Section 3.04(f)) together with such letter of
transmittal, duly executed, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger Consideration
(after giving effect to any required Tax deductions and withholdings in accordance with Section 3.04(g)), and the Certificates so surrendered
shall forthwith be cancelled. Clear shall direct the Paying Agent to promptly deliver the Merger Consideration to each former holder
of record of Shares who properly complies with the transmittal instructions described herein, and in no case shall such payment be made
later than two (2) Business Days after receipt by the Paying Agent of such instructions. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount
payable upon due surrender of the Certificates. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Shares that is not registered in the transfer
records of CB, the proper amount of the Merger Consideration may be paid in exchange therefor to a Person other than the Person in whose
name the Certificate so delivered is registered if the Certificate formerly representing such Shares is presented to the Paying Agent,
accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable Taxes have been paid.


 






    10


     


    

 


(d) No
Liability. Notwithstanding the foregoing of CB, neither the Paying Agent nor any party hereto shall be liable to any former holder
of Shares for any amount properly delivered to a Governmental Authority pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar
laws.


 


(e) Unclaimed
Funds. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by former holders of Shares of CB for one hundred eighty (180) days
after the Effective Time shall be transferred from Paying Agent to New Pubco. Any former holders of Shares of CB who have not theretofore
complied with this Article III shall thereafter look only to Clear for payment of the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect of
their Shares upon due surrender of their Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) pursuant to this Article III, in each case,
without any interest thereon.


 


(f) Lost,
Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit
of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Clear or the Paying Agent, the
posting by such Person of a bond in customary amount as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such
Certificate, the Paying Agent will pay in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration deliverable
in respect of such Shares represented by such Certificate.


 


		(g)	Withholding
                                            Rights. The Paying Agent or Clear shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration
                                            otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Shares such amounts as Clear
                                            or the Paying Agent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such
                                            payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign tax law. To the extent
                                            that amounts are so deducted and withheld by the Paying Agent or Clear, such amounts shall
                                            be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of Shares
                                            in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Paying Agent or Clear.



 


		(h)	Resale
                                            Registration Statement. As soon as practicable (and in any event within 30 Calendar days
                                            following the Closing date) New Pubco shall file a registration statement with the SEC providing
                                            for the resale by CB shareholders of shares received as part of the Merger Consideration
                                            (the “Resale Registration Statement”). New Pubco shall use commercially reasonable
                                            efforts to cause such Resale Registration Statement to become effective within 60 Calendar
                                            days from Closing Date.

by the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended, or any similar state Laws (and for which the beneficiary pays
the full cost of coverage), no Compensation Plan provides medical, health or other welfare benefits or coverage for any current or former
employees following retirement or other termination of service.


 


(iii) CB
and Bank are not party to or bound by any collective bargaining agreement or other Contract with a union, works council or labor organization
with respect to any employees. As of the date hereof, there are no pending or, to the Knowledge of CB and Bank, threatened, arbitrations,

temporary or leased employee, or independent contractor or consultant thereof with respect to the Compensation Plans (other than routine
claims for benefits) or any employment, labor, or employee benefit matters. No claims or allegations have been made against CB, Bank

(o) Risk
Management Instruments; Investments.


 


(i) All
material interest rate swaps, caps, floors, option agreements, futures and forward contracts and other similar risk management arrangements,
whether entered into for Bank’s own account, or for the account of one or more of Bank or its customers (all of which are listed
on Bank’s Disclosure Schedule), were entered into (i) in accordance with prudent business practices and all applicable laws, rules,
regulations and regulatory policies and (ii) with counterparties believed to be financially responsible at the time; and each of them
constitutes the valid and legally binding obligation of Bank, enforceable in accordance with its terms (except as enforceability may
be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and similar laws of general applicability
relating to or affecting creditors’ rights or by general equity principles), and is in full force and effect. Neither Bank, nor
to Bank’s knowledge any other party thereto, is in breach of any of its obligations under any such agreement or arrangement.


 


(ii) Set
forth on Section 5.02(o) of the Disclosure Schedule is a complete and correct list of all investment and debt securities, mortgage- backed
and related securities, marketable equity securities and securities purchased under agreements to resell that are owned by the Bank,
other than in a fiduciary or agency capacity (the “Bank Investment Securities”). Bank has good and marketable title to all
Bank Investment Securities held by it, free and clear of all encumbrances, and except to the extent such Bank Investment Securities are
pledged in the ordinary course of business consistent with prudent banking practices to secure obligations of the Bank. The Bank Investment
Securities are valued on the books of the Bank in accordance with GAAP, as may be modified by RAP. Except as set forth on Section 5.02(o)
of the Disclosure Schedule, and as may be imposed by applicable securities laws and documents governing the terms of such securities,
none of the Bank Investment Securities is subject to any restriction, whether contractual or statutory, that materially impairs the ability
of the Bank to freely dispose of such investment at any time. With respect to all material repurchase agreements to which the Bank is
a party, the Bank has a valid, perfected first lien or security interest in the securities or other collateral securing each such repurchase
agreement equals or exceeds the amount of debt secured by such collateral under such agreement.


 






    20


     


    

 


(p) Books
and Records. The books and records of CB and the Bank have been fully, properly and accurately maintained in all material respects,
have been maintained in accordance with sound business practices in the banking industry, and there are no material inaccuracies or discrepancies
of any kind contained or reflected therein and they fairly reflect the substance of events and transactions included therein.


 


(q) Insurance.
The Disclosure Schedule sets forth all of the insurance policies, binders, or bonds maintained by CB and the Bank. CB and the Bank are
insured with reputable insurers against such risks and in such amounts as the management of CB and the Bank reasonably have determined
to be prudent in accordance with industry practices. All such insurance policies are in full force and effect; Neither CB nor Bank is
in material default thereunder; and all claims thereunder have been filed in due and timely fashion.


 


(r) Transactions
With Affiliates. Except as set forth in Section 5.02(r) of the Disclosure Schedule, neither CB nor the Bank has any transactions
with Affiliates within the meaning of Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act, as implemented by Regulation W of the Federal
Reserve Board.


 


(s) Properties.
Section 5.02(s) of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth all real property owned or leased by the Bank or in which the Bank has an interest
(other than as a mortgagee). The Bank owns, or has a valid right to use or a leasehold interest in, all real property used by it in the
conduct of its business as such business is presently conducted. Bank has good and marketable title, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances,
charges, defaults or equitable interests to all of the properties and assets, real and personal, reflected on the Bank Financial Statements
as being owned by Bank as of December 31, 2021 or acquired after such date, except (i) statutory liens for amounts not yet due and payable,
(ii) pledges to secure deposits and other liens incurred in the ordinary course of banking business, (iii) such imperfections of title,
easements, encumbrances, liens, charges, defaults or equitable interests, if any, as do not affect the use of properties or assets subject
thereto or affected thereby or otherwise materially impair business operations at such properties, (iv) dispositions and encumbrances
in the ordinary course of business, and (v) liens on properties acquired in foreclosure or on account of debts previously contracted.
All leases pursuant to which Bank, as lessee, leases real or personal property (except for leases that have expired by their terms or
that Bank has agreed to terminate since the date hereof) are valid without default thereunder by the lessee or, to Bank’s knowledge,
the lessor. The condition of the properties and assets of the Bank is sufficient, in all material respects, for the operation of the
business of the Bank as currently conducted by the Bank.


 


(t) Loans.
Each loan reflected as an asset in the Bank Financial Statements and each balance sheet date subsequent thereto (i) is evidenced by notes,
agreements or other evidences of indebtedness that are true and genuine, (ii) to the extent secured, has been secured by valid liens
and security interests that have been perfected, and (iii) is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the obligor named therein, enforceable
in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance and other laws of general applicability relating
to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles. The reserves for loan and lease losses shown on each of the
balance sheets contained in the Bank Financial Statements are adequate in the judgment of management and consistent with the standards
of the Federal Reserve and under GAAP to provide for incurred and probable losses, net of recoveries relating to loans and leases previously
charged off, on loans and leases outstanding (including accrued interest receivable) as of the applicable date of such balance sheet.
The aggregate loan balances of the Bank as of December 31, 2021, in excess of such reserves as shown on the balance sheet as of that
date included in the Bank Financial Statements are, to the knowledge of CB and the Bank, collectible in accordance with their terms.
All loans and extensions of credit that have been made by the Bank that are subject either to Section 22(b) of the Federal Reserve Act,
as amended, or to Part 349 of the rules and regulations of the FDIC, comply therewith.


 






    21

in all material respects under the requirements of RAP to provide for reasonably incurred losses on outstanding loans.

(“FDIA”), and Bank has paid all assessments and filed all reports required by the FDIA.

requirements, including the preparation of an annual disclosure statement, and the signature and attestation requirements provided and

(x) Bank
Secrecy Act, Anti-Money Laundering, Trade Compliance and Customer Information.


 


(i) Neither
CB, the Bank nor any of their representatives acting on their behalf, is aware of, based on its internal compliance procedures, and has
not been advised of, and has no reason to believe that any facts or circumstances exist, which would cause it to be deemed (i) to be
operating in violation in any material respect of the Bank Secrecy Act, the Patriot Act, any order issued with respect to anti-money
laundering by the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), or any other applicable
anti-money laundering statute (including but not limited to the USA PATRIOT Act of 2011, the United States Bank Secrecy Act of 1970,
the United States Money Laundering Control Act of 1986, and the International Money Laundering Abatement and Anti-Terrorist Financing
Act of 2001, the laws and executive orders administered by state agencies, and any regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively,
the “Anti-Money Laundering Laws”)) in all applicable jurisdictions, the rules and regulations thereunder and any related
or similar rules, regulations or guidelines, issued, administered or enforced by any Governmental Authority; or (ii) not to be in satisfactory
compliance in any material respect with the applicable privacy and customer information requirements contained in any federal and state
privacy laws and regulations, including, without limitation, in Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 and the regulations promulgated

investigation, audit or proceeding (whether judicial, arbitral, administrative or other) involving CB or the Bank with respect to any
of the foregoing is pending or, to the knowledge of CB or the Bank, threatened.


 






    22


     


    

 


(ii) Neither
CB, the Bank nor any of their representatives acting on their behalf, is aware of any facts or circumstances that would cause it to believe
that any non-public customer information has been disclosed to or accessed by an unauthorized third party in a manner that would cause
it or any of its Subsidiaries to undertake any material remedial action. The Bank Board has adopted and implemented an anti-money laundering
program that contains adequate and appropriate customer identification verification procedures that comply with Section 326 of the Patriot
Act and such anti-money laundering program meets the requirements in all material respects of Section 352 of the Patriot Act and the
regulations thereunder, and it (or such other of its Subsidiaries) has complied in all material respects with any requirements to file
reports and other necessary documents as required by the Patriot Act and the regulations thereunder. The Bank’s internal compliance
procedures comply with all applicable laws and regulations. Neither CB nor the Bank have received any written or oral communication from
any Governmental Authority that alleges that CB, the Bank, or any of their agents are in violation of, or have, or may have any liability
under, any international trade laws or Anti-Money Laundering Laws. Further, neither CB nor the Bank has, during the past five (5) years,
made any voluntary or involuntary disclosure to a Governmental Authority or conducted any internal investigation or audit concerning
any actual or potential violation or wrongdoing related to international trade laws or Anti-Money Laundering Laws.

or employees, to foreign or domestic political parties or campaigns or violated any provision of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act
of 1977 or any other local or foreign anti-corruption or bribery Law or (3) made any other unlawful payment. Neither CB, the Bank, nor
any of their representatives acting on their behalf have directly or indirectly, given or agreed to give any unlawful gift or similar
benefit in any material amount to any customer, supplier, governmental employee or other Person who is or may be in a position to help
or hinder CB or the Bank or assist CB or the Bank in connection with any actual or proposed transaction.


 


(iv) Neither
CB, the Bank, nor any of their shareholders, directors, or officers, nor, to the knowledge of CB or the Bank, any other representative
acting on behalf of CB or the Bank is currently identified on the specially designated nationals or other blocked person list or otherwise
currently subject to any U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC, and the Parties have not, since their incorporation, directly or indirectly,
used any funds, or loaned, contributed or otherwise made available such funds to any Subsidiary, joint venture partner or other Person,
in connection with any sales or operations in Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, the Donetsk People’s Republic, Luhansk People’s
Republic, and Crimea regions of Ukraine, or any other country sanctioned by OFAC or for the purpose of financing the activities of any
Person currently subject to, or otherwise in violation of, any U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC.


 


(v) Except
as specifically authorized by a governmental license, license exception, or other permit or applicable authorization of a Governmental
Authority, neither CB nor the Bank have exported, reexported, transferred, facilitated or brokered the sale of any goods, services, technology,
or technical data to or from, or entered into any transaction or had any dealing with, any person or entity for whom a license or other
authorization is required under the U.S. Export Administration Regulations (the “EAR,” 15 C.F.R. § 730 et seq.), the
International Traffic in Arms Regulations (the “ITAR,” 22 C.F.R. § 120 et seq.) or any other U.S. or non-U.S. export

                                            in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (the
                                            “Form S-4”). If the SEC does not permit the offer and issuance of the registration
                                            of the New Pubco Common Stock on the Form S-4, New Pubco shall offer and issue the New Pubco
                                            Common Stock in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the
                                            Securities Act of 1933, as amended (a “Private Placement”); provided that New
                                            Pubco shall not be required to issue any New Pubco Common Stock unless such issuance complies
                                            with all federal and state securities laws.



 


		(b)	If
                                            the New Pubco Common Stock is registered on the Form S-4, as promptly as practicable after

                                            together with an Election Form and Letter of Transmittal.



 


		(c)	If
                                            New Pubco is not permitted to register the New Pubco Common Stock issuable in the Merger
                                            on the Form S-4, as soon as practicable after such determination, New Pubco shall mail to
                                            each CB Stockholder an Investor Questionnaire requesting that each CB Stockholder return
                                            such Investor Questionnaire by the Certification Deadline specified therein, which shall
                                            be ten (10) Business Days after the mailing date of such Investor Questionnaire. CB shall
                                            promptly provide New Pubco with a copy of all completed Investor Questionnaires. If New Pubco
                                            is not permitted to register the New Pubco Common Stock issuable in the Merger, New Pubco
                                            shall prepare an Offering Memorandum and cause such Offering Memorandum to be mailed to CB
                                            shareholders that have provided a properly completed Investor Questionnaire certifying that
                                            such holder of CB Common Stock is an accredited investor and to each unaccredited investor
                                            that has appointed a Purchaser Representative. Any CB Stockholder that (i) does not return
                                            an Investor Questionnaire by the Certification Deadline or (ii) does not certify in the Investor
                                            Questionnaire that it is an “accredited investor” (or that it is an unaccredited
                                            investor and has appointed a purchaser representative in accordance with Rule 502) shall
                                            be deemed to have selected Option B (all cash).



 


		(d)	New
                                            Pubco shall not be required to offer or issue shares of New Pubco Common Stock to any CB
                                            Stockholder if such offer or issuance would, in its reasonable judgement, be in violation
                                            of any federal or state securities laws. New Pubco shall be under no obligation to issue
                                            any New Pubco Common Stock unless the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination
                                            Agreement have been consummated. Subject to the foregoing, New Pubco shall cause to be deposited
                                            with the Paying Agent, the shares of New Pubco Common Stock issuable pursuant to Article
                                            III hereof.



 


		(e)	The
                                            parties hereto agree that all obligations of New Pubco under this Section 6.16 to issue any
                                            New Pubco Common Stock shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated
                                            the Business Combination Agreement and that all obligations of New Pubco under this Section
                                            6.16 shall terminate without action of any party upon termination of the Business Combination
                                            Agreement.



 


		(f)	If
                                            New Pubco is not permitted to register the New Pubco Common Stock issuable in the Merger
                                            on the Form S-4 and instead issues such stock in a Private Placement, as soon as practicable
                                            (and in any event within 30 calendar days following the Closing Date) New Pubco shall file
                                            a registration statement with the SEC providing for the resale by CB shareholders of shares
                                            received as part of the Merger Consideration (the “Resale Registration Statement”).
                                            Clear shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Resale Registration Statement
                                            to become effective within 60 calendar days from Closing Date.

Understanding; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, is intended to confer upon any

SCHEDULE
1-SAMPLE MERGER CONSIDERATION CALCULATION


 


For
illustrative purposes, based on the following assumptions (final numbers will change other than $10 value for New Pubco common stock
and $150,000 NOL Tax Benefit):


 


(1)
Adjusted Estimated Book Value (“AEBV”) as of 10/24/22 is $2,604,000 (based on Equity Capital of $2,700,000 minus $96,000
loan impairment)


 


(2)
New Pubco common stock will be delivered under Option A at $10.00 per share


 


(3)
CB common stock has 449,043 shares outstanding


 


(4)
per above, per share AEBV is $5.80


 


(5)
in addition to AEBV, shareholders will receive a pro rata share of Premises valued at


 


$400,000
(* number may change based on Appraised Value) less value on books of $121,350 = $278,650 ($278,650 / 449,043) = $.6205 per share


 


$150,000
for NOL Tax Benefit ($150,000/449,043) = $.3340


 


As
an example, assume 85% (381,686)) of shares outstanding are held by shareholders electing Option A, which is 3 X AEBV with 1/3 in cash
and 2/3 in equity:


 


Sample
Calculation:


 


Option
A-3x per share AEBV: $5.80 X3 = $ 17.40 plus, $.6205 for Premises above what it is carried on the books, plus $.3340 for NOL Tax Benefit=
$18.3545 per share


 


Total
value to Option A electors -$18.3545 X 381,686 = $7,005,656


 


Stock
portion X .66 = $4,670,390.63


 


Number
of shares of QFTA common at $10 per share—467,039


 


Cash
payment: ($6,338,315.88 X .33) = $2,335,195.31


 


Option
B electors comprising 15% of outstanding shares (67,356 shares) receive:


 


AEBV
per share of $5.80 X2 = $11.60, plus $.6205 (Premises), plus $.3340 for NOL Tax Benefit = $12.5545 per share


 


Total
B-($12.5545 X 67,356) = $845,620.90


 


New
Pubco common stock: $4,670,390.63


 


Option
A cash: $2,335,195.31


 


Option
B cash: $845,620.90


 


TOTAL
