Well, it is hard to say. You have to answer both questions A and B.
(A) That has total assets of less than $1 billion as of December 31 of either of the two prior calendar years; and
(B) On or before July 6, 2012:
(1) Was not required under Federal or State law to deposit taxes, insurance premiums, fees, or any other charges in an escrow account for the entire term of any loan secured by residential improved real estate or a mobile home; and
(2) Did not have a policy of consistently and uniformly requiring the deposit of taxes, insurance premiums, fees, or any other charges in an escrow account for any loans secured by residential improved real estate or a mobile home.
