  E. TEACH Inc Banking Update (PacWest Bank & CD) Vote Matthew Brown 5 m
   

Propose closing TEACH's $7,023,756.57 7 month CD at 3.9% with PacWest Bank and depositing the funds into a high yield savings account (currently at 5% interest) with PacWest Bank to obtain a higher yield with greater liquidity.  TEACH is currently conducing due diligence on non PacWest Banks to open an account in the next month to diversify its banking relationships.  TEACH would use a portion of the 7 million in the high yield savings account to fund the new banking account.  The plan would be to maintain 1-2 payroll cycles worth of cash in the new account to protect against any potential bank failure at Pac West Bank.

 
     
     
     
     
  F. New TEACH Banking Accounts - PNC Bank Vote Matthew Brown 10 m
   

Proposal to open an interest bearing (2.35%) checking account with PNC Bank and deposit 1 million dollars into the account to diversify our banking.  This account will act as an emergency payroll account if PacWest Bank should have liquidity problems that limit TEACH's ability to immediately access funds.
