Subject to the acceptance of this STIPULATION AND CONSENT TO THE ISSUANCE OF A CONSENT ORDER (“CONSENT AGREEMENT”) by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), it is hereby stipulated and agreed by and between a representative of the Legal Division of the FDIC and The Bank of Southern Connecticut, New Haven, Connecticut (“Bank”), as follows:
