Dear Ms. McCulloch: The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC"), for the reasons discussed below, hereby approves the applications (1) of JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, Columbus, Ohio("JPMCB"), to (a) acquire assets and liabilities from Washington Mutual Bank, Henderson, Nevada ("WMB"), and (b) to acquire by merger Washington Mutual Bank FSB, Park City, Utah("WMBIFSB"), a subsidiary of WMB; and (2) of Chase USA, National Association, Newark,Delaware (CUSA), to acquire from JPMCB certain of the assets and liabilities related to the credit card accounts acquired by JPMCB from WMB. This approval is granted following review of the application, other materials you have supplied, and other information available to the OCC, including commitments and representations made in the application and by representatives of JPMCB and CUSA during the application process. As discussed below, the transactions may be consummated immediately upon approval.
Of course, that gets us this: "The Court disagrees with the Plan Objectors. The collapse of WMB itself demonstrates that bank deposits (especially in the amount of $4 billion) may not be easily collectible without resulting in another bank collapse."
