FDIC as Receiver of Westernbank Puerto 

Rico, Attention: Claims Agent, 7777 

Baymeadows Way West, Jacksonville, 

Florida 32256. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 

30, 2010, Westernbank Puerto Rico, 

Mayaguez, Puerto Rico, (FIN #10231) 

was closed by the Office of the 

Commissioner of Financial Institutions 

of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico 

(‘‘OCFI’’), and the Federal Deposit 

Insurance Corporation (‘‘FDIC’’) was 

appointed as its receiver (‘‘Receiver’’). 

In complying with its statutory duty to 

resolve the institution in the method 

that is least costly to the deposit 

insurance fund, see 12 U.S.C. 1823(c)(4), 

the FDIC facilitated a transaction with 

Banco Popular de Puerto Rico, San Juan, 

Puerto Rico, to acquire the deposits and 

most of the assets of the failed 

institution. 

Section 11(d)(11)(A) of the FDI Act, 

12 U.S.C. 1821(d)(11)(A), sets forth the 

order of priority for distribution of 

amounts realized from the liquidation or 

other resolution of an insured 

depository institution to pay claims. 

Under the statutory order of priority, 

administrative expenses and deposit 

liabilities must be paid in full before 

any distribution may be made to general 

unsecured creditors or any lower 

priority claims. 

As of May 31, 2011, the value of 

assets available for distribution by the 

Receiver, together with anticipated 

recoveries on claims against directors, 

officers, and other professionals, and tax 

refunds was $4,673,843,188. As of the 

same date, administrative expenses and 

depositor liabilities equaled 

$8,031,697,095, exceeding available 

assets and potential recoveries by 

$3,357,853,907. Accordingly, the FDIC 

has determined that insufficient assets 

exist to make any distribution on 

general unsecured creditor claims (and 

any lower priority claims) and therefore 

all such claims, asserted or unasserted, 

will recover nothing and have no value. 

Dated: August 11, 2011.

Executive Secretary.
