SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OTS may not conduct or sponsor an 
information collection, and respondents are not required to respond to 
an information collection, unless the information collection displays a

invite comments on the following information collection.
    Title of Proposal: Capital Distribution.
    OMB Number: 1550-0059.

    Description: The OTS reviews the information to determine whether 
the request of savings associations is in accordance with existing 
statutory and regulatory criteria. In addition, the information 
provides the OTS with a mechanism for monitoring capital distributions 
since these distributions can reduce an association's capital and 
perhaps place it at risk.
