 The Home Savings and Loan Company of Youngstown, Youngstown, Ohio, (“Bank”), having been
advised of its right to a NOTICE OF CHARGES AND OF HEARING detailing the unsafe or unsound banking practices alleged to have been committed by the Bank, and of its right to a hearing on the charges under section 8(b) of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Act (“Act”), 12 U.S.C. § 1818(b), and under section 1163.03 of the Ohio Revised Code regarding hearings before the Division of Financial Institutions for the State of Ohio (“Division”), and having waived those
rights, by and through its duly elected and acting Board of Directors (“Board”) entered into a STIPULATION AND CONSENT TO THE ISSUANCE OF A CONSENT ORDER (“STIPULATION”) with representatives of the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and the Division, dated March 29, 2012, whereby, solely for the purpose of this proceeding and without admitting or denying any charges of unsafe or unsound banking practices relating to
weaknesses in capital, asset quality, and earnings, the Bank consented to the issuance of a CONSENT ORDER(“ORDER”) by the FDIC and the Division. 







 The FDIC and the Division considered the matter and determined that they had reason to
believe that the Bank had engaged in unsafe or unsound banking practices and therefore accepted the STIPULATION. 
 Having also
determined that the requirements for issuance of an order under 12 U.S.C. § 1818(b) and Ohio Revised Code § 1163.03, have been satisfied, the FDIC and the Division HEREBY ORDER that the Bank, its institution-affiliated parties, as
that term is defined in section 3(u) of the Act, 12 U.S.C. § 1813(u), and its successors and assigns, take the affirmative actions as follows:

 MANAGEMENT 
 1. (a) While this ORDER remains in effect, the Bank shall continue to retain qualified management. Management shall be provided the necessary written authority to implement the provisions of this ORDER.
The qualifications of management shall be assessed on its ability to: 
  

	 	(i)	Comply with the requirements of this ORDER; 

  

	 	(ii)	Operate the Bank in a safe and sound manner; 

  

	 	(iii)	Comply with applicable laws, rules, and regulations; and 

  

	 	(iv)	Restore all aspects of the Bank to (or, as applicable, maintain) a safe and sound condition, including capital adequacy, asset quality, management effectiveness,

 (b) While this ORDER is in effect, prior to the
addition of any individual to the Board or the employment of any individual as a senior executive officer, the Bank shall request and obtain the written approval of the Regional Director of the Chicago Regional Office of the FDIC (“Regional
Director”) and the Division. For purposes of this ORDER, “senior executive officer” is defined as in section 32 of the Act (“section 32”), 12 U.S.C. § 1831(i), and section 303.101(b) of the FDIC Rules and

percent (9%) of the Bank’s Average Total Assets. The bank shall also increase and maintain its Total Risk-Based Capital ratio equal to or greater than 12.00 percent (12%) of the Bank’s Total Risk-Weighted Assets. For purposes of
this ORDER, Tier 1 capital, qualifying total capital, total assets, and risk-weighted assets shall be calculated in accordance with Part 325 of the FDIC Rules and Regulations (“Part 325”), 12 C.F.R. Part 325. If any such capital

(60) days from the date of such filing (without regard to amendments), restore the Bank’s Tier 1 Leverage Capital and Total Risk-Based Capital ratios to the minimums prescribed by this ORDER. 

(b) Within thirty (30) days of the effective date of this ORDER, the bank shall revise and submit its capital plan to ensure

	 	(i)	The sale of common stock and noncumulative perpetual or preferred stock constituting Tier 1 capital under Part 325; or 


 

	 	(ii)	The elimination of all or part of the assets classified as “Loss” provided any such collection on a partially charged-off asset shall first be applied to that
