Requires any such transaction to be approved by the Corporation and the primary Federal and State supervisors of each party thereto.

Provides that an out-of-State bank holding company which acquires a closed or failing bank shall not be entitled to acquire additional banks in the State in which such bank is located. Authorizes any acquired bank to retain and operate all existing branches and to establish new branches to the same extent as a national bank located at such bank's principal office.

Requires the appropriate Federal banking agency to: (1) permit an insured agricultural or energy bank to account for troubled debt restructuring according to generally accepted accounting principles by not requiring a change in the recorded investment unless the investment exceeds total, reasonably anticipated, future receipts, given the new terms of the loan; (2) establish a program of capital standard forbearance for such an insured bank for which capital reduction is largely attributable to problems in the agricultural or energy sectors of the economy or any other sector of the economy experiencing financial difficulties; and (3) implement call report requirements for renegotiated loans which authorize such loans to be disclosed as "restructured and in compliance with modified terms."

Directs the Comptroller of the Currency to establish new lending limits for banks covered by the capital standard forbearance program. Prohibits such a lending limitation from exceeding 20 percent of the unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus of the lending institution.
