Account(s):
What about my account with Century Bank, F.S.B.?
If you had an account with Century Bank, F.S.B., you now have an account
with IBERIABANK, Lafayette, LA. All deposit accounts, which include checking,
savings, money market, CDs and retirement accounts, have been transferred to
IBERIABANK, regardless of the dollar amount. No one lost any money on deposit
in Century Bank, F.S.B.
Customers of both banks should continue to use their existing branches until
IBERIABANK can fully integrate the deposit records of Century Bank, F.S.B.
To forewarn you of any scams, please be advised that you will not receive any
notification from the FDIC, the Receiver or IBERIABANK to provide any private
information. Please be watchful for and resist any such scams to obtain information
from you by individuals or entities purporting to act on behalf of Century
Bank, F.S.B., IBERIABANK or the FDIC.
ATM/debit card and/or Billpay:
What about my ATM/debit card and/or bill paying with Century Bank, F.S.B.?
Your ATM/debit card will continue to work, and bill paying will work as it has in the past.
Brokered Deposits:
I am a deposit broker or have brokered deposits. What do I do?
As an All-Deposit Transfer transaction, the total of
all deposit accounts, excluding the Cede & Co. brokered deposits, have
been assumed by IBERIABANK. The FDIC retained the Cede & Co. brokered
deposits and will pay those accounts off directly.
Be advised, however, that from and after the date of closing,
IBERIABANK will accrue and pay interest on deposit liabilities at a rate
it shall determine; accordingly, IBERIABANK shall permit depositors, including
brokered depositors, impacted by reduced rates to withdraw their deposits
without penalty for early withdrawal.
If you are a customer who has a Century Bank, F.S.B. deposit
through a broker, you must contact your broker with any questions.
Direct Deposits - Government Deposits:
What will happen to my direct deposits?
Direct Deposits, including Social Security checks, will continue as normal.
Existing Deposits at IBERIABANK:
I already have other deposit accounts with the new bank. When combined
with balances at this bank, my deposits exceed $250,000. Are all
funds insured?
The accounts transferred to IBERIABANK will be separately insured for
at least six months after the merger. This grace period gives a depositor
the opportunity to restructure the accounts, if necessary.
CDs from the failed bank are separately insured until the earliest maturity date after the end of the
six-month grace period.
CDs that mature during the six-month period and are renewed for the same term and in the same dollar
amount (either with or without accrued interest) continue to be separately insured until the first maturity
date after the six-month period.
If a CD matures during the six-month grace period and is renewed on any other basis, it would be
separately insured only until the end of the six-month grace period.
Interest Rates, Early Withdrawal Penalty:
Will I continue to earn interest at the same rate? Will I be charged an early withdrawal penalty?
Interest on all deposits accrued through Friday, November 13, 2009, will
be paid at your same rate. IBERIABANK will review rates and notify you
if interest rates will change. Your interest rate may be reduced.
You may withdraw funds from any transferred account without an early withdrawal
penalty until you enter into a new deposit agreement with your new bank.
Entering into a new deposit agreement can be done by either renewing your
CD
or making
a deposit to or a withdrawal from your account.
Loans/mortgages:
What about my loan or mortgage with Century Bank, F.S.B.?
All mortgages and loans have been assumed by IBERIABANK. Your payment
amount and due date are the same. If you are having your payment
deducted from your account, it will continue as it has in the past. You
should continue
to make your checks payable to Century Bank, F.S.B. and send
your payments to the same address.
Loans in Process:
What happens if I had a loan in process that had not closed or a line of credit not fully funded?
You should contact your loan officer. All prior contacts remain the same.
Media: I represent a TV/Newspaper/Radio and would like some information.

Safe Deposit Boxes:
How can I claim the contents of my safe deposit box?

safe deposit box; however, no action on your part is required because of
this transaction.
Shareholders:
What about my shares of stock?
All shares of Century Bank, F.S.B. were owned by its holding company,
Century Financial Group, Inc., Pompano Beach, FL. The holding company
was not included in the closing of the bank or the resulting
receivership. If
you are a shareholder of Century Financial Group, Inc., please
do not contact or
file a claim with the Receiver. You may contact them directly
for information as follows:

Transaction Types:
Why do all deposits, insured or not, pass in some transactions but not in others?
The FDIC is required by law to employ the least-cost resolution measure for each failed financial institution. The most frequent result had been for the FDIC to transfer only the insured deposits in a Purchase and Assumption transaction; however, the temporary increase in the deposit insurance limit has assisted in the transfer of all deposits more often in the past year.
Unpaid Bills:
I did some work for the bank and have not been paid. What should I do?
All claims against Century Bank, F.S.B., together with proof of the claims,
must be submitted in writing to the Receiver at the following address:
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Receiver: Century Bank, F.S.B.
