Name: Stephen A. Orzel Title: Subsidiary Corp. Manager
Organization: Resolution Trust Corp/FDIC Dates: From: 10/1987 To: 12/1995
James Kitto, Subsidiary Dept. Head
I. Organization Overview
Please describe in general terms this particular employer. Include such information as industry and relationship to
competitors, size, sales volume, organizational entity, products or services offered, management philosophy,
number of employees, branch offices, plants or warehouse facilities, marketing organization, etc. Also discuss
growth activities during your term of employment with this company.
The Resolution Trust Corp/FDIC (RTC) was formed in 10/1987, via FIRREA, for the “Savings and Loan
Bailout”. The FDIC (who handled just Commercial Banks) established RTC to handle the liquidation of
failed Savings and Loans.
In 10/1987, the RTC placed Hill Financial Savings Bank (with whom I was working for at that time),
located in Red Hill, PA in to conservatorship. By 7/1987, Hill Financial Savings Bank was changed to
the Northeast Consolidated Office of the RTC (NECO-RTC), and moved to Valley Forge, PA.
In 02/1992, NECO-RTC was changed to the Philadelphia Office of the RTC. And on 12/31/1995, as
ordered by Washington DC, all offices of the RTC would be closing with the remaining work being
transferred to various FDIC offices. The remaining assets of the Philadelphia Office of the RTC was
transferred to the FDIC office in Hartford, CT.
With my tenure at the RTC, I spent from 1987 through 1991 in the Loans and Other Assets Dept. During
that period, I managed and disposed of 2,400 performing and non-performing commercial and residential
assets/loans totaling $125 million. During that period, I created the Conservatorship
Audit/Reconciliation Plan that was used the day and during the time that the savings and loan was placed
into conservatorship. This simplified the reconciliation process completed by the acquiring bank during
receivership process.
From 1992 to 1995, I was moved to the Subsidiary Liquidation Dept. During that period, I assisted in
the dissolving, merging, and/or sale of 500 +/- subsidiary corporations and joint ventures in 50 states
from 94 insolvent Savings and Loans, ranging in value from bankruptcy to in excess of $50 million in
assets with active sales exceeding $1.250 billion.
In 1987, I created the “Re-inventing the Bailout Process” by using PNC Banks “Good Bank/Bad Bank
Plan”. Although, I got praises for the plan in Washington DC it was too late to change.
In 1991, I created the “Tobias Knoblauch and Marian Business Plan”, for the Pa. Dept. of Banking. This
was similar to Re-inventing the Bailout Process, but Knoblauch and Marion Banks (privately owned

banks taken over by the Pa Dept. of banking) would be merged creating one entity. After finding out that
funds ($14 million +/-) were taken by the Pa Dept. of Banking from the PA Unemployment Fund to
bailout the banks, I never received a call back from the Pa Dept. of Banking.
