    General Description of Collection: Section 28 of the FDI Act (12 
U.S.C. 1831e) imposes restrictions on the powers of savings 
associations, which reduce the risk of loss to the deposit insurance 
funds and eliminate some differences between the powers of state 
associations and those of federal associations. Some of the 
restrictions apply to all insured savings associations and some to 
state chartered associations only. The statute exempts some federal 
savings banks and associations from the restrictions, and provides for 
the FDIC to grant exemptions to other associations under certain 
circumstances. In addition, Section 18(m) of the FDI Act (12 U.S.C. 
1828(m)) requires that notice be given to the FDIC prior to an insured 
savings association (state or federal) acquiring, establishing, or 
conducting new activities through a subsidiary.
    3. Title: Forms Relating to Outside Counsel, Legal Support & Expert 
Services.
    OMB Number: 3064-0122.
