 *General Description of Collection:*
                     The Interagency Bank Merger Act Application form is used by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, and the Comptroller of the Currency for applications under section 18(c) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (FDIA), as amended (12 U.S.C. 1828(c)). The application is used for a merger, consolidation, or other combining transaction between nonaffiliated parties as well as to effect a corporate reorganization between affiliated parties (affiliate transaction). There is a different level of burden for each of the two types of merger transactions, nonaffiliated and affiliated. An affiliate transaction refers to a merger, consolidation, other combination, or transfer of any deposit liabilities, between depository institutions that are controlled by the same holding company. It includes a business combination between a depository institution and an affiliated interim institution. Applicants proposing affiliate transactions are required to provide less information than applicants involved in the merger of two unaffiliated entities. If depository institutions are not controlled by the same holding company, the merger transaction is considered nonaffiliated. There is no change in the method or substance of the collection. The estimated time to complete the application remains the same. The change in estimated annual burden is due solely to economic fluctuations that have resulted in an increase in the number of applications received annually. Dated at Washington, DC, this 15th day of August, 2017. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Robert E. Feldman, Executive Secretary.
