SEC. __. NEW LENDING THAT IS ATTRIBUTABLE TO TARP INVESTMENTS AND

paragraph:
          ``(12) Lending increases attributable to investment 
        or other assistance under the troubled assets relief 
        program.--
                  ``(A) In general.--Each report of condition 
                filed pursuant to this subsection by an insured 
                depository institution which received an 
                investment or other assistance under the 
                Troubled Assets Relief Program established by 
                the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 
                2008 or section 136(d) of the Energy

                depository institution that is subject to 
                subparagraph (A) cannot accurately quantify the 
                effect that an investment or other assistance 
                under such Troubled Assets Relief Program has 
                had on new lending by the institution, the 
                insured depository institution shall report the 
                total amount of the increase in new lending, if 
                any, in the period covered by such report.''.
