Dear Valued Depositor:

 

I am pleased to tell you about an investment opportunity and just as importantly, to request your vote. Pursuant to a Plan of Conversion Merger (the “Plan”), Fullerton Federal Savings Association will convert to stock form and will be merged into Fairmount Bank. Also pursuant to the Plan, Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. is currently offering shares of its common stock for sale. Enclosed you will find a Proxy Statement and attached Prospectus containing a more detailed description of Fullerton Federal Savings Association, Fairmount Bancorp, Inc., Fairmount Bank and the proposed transactions. A Questions and Answers Brochure is also enclosed.

 

THE PROXY VOTE:

Your vote is extremely important. Although we have received conditional regulatory approval, the Plan is also subject to approval by the depositors of Fullerton Federal. NOT VOTING YOUR ENCLOSED PROXY CARD(S) WILL HAVE THE SAME EFFECT AS VOTING “AGAINST” THE PLAN. Without sufficient favorable votes, Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. and Fullerton Federal cannot complete the conversion merger and related stock offering. Note that you may receive more than one proxy card, depending on the ownership structure of your accounts at Fullerton Federal. Please vote all the proxy cards you receive — none are duplicates! To cast your vote, please sign each proxy card and return the card(s) in the Proxy Reply Envelope provided. Alternatively, you may vote via the Internet, by following the simple instructions on the proxy card.

 

Our Board of Directors urges you to join them in voting “FOR” the PLAN. Voting does not obligate you to purchase Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. common stock in the offering.

 

If the Plan is approved:

   

Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. will issue common stock to investors who purchased shares during the offering.

   

Fullerton Federal will be merged into Fairmount Bank.

 

   

You may bank at Fullerton Federal’s office or at Fairmount Bank’s full-service office, located at 8216 Philadelphia Road, Baltimore.

   

You may take advantage of Fairmount Bank’s extended banking hours and expanded services.

 

THE STOCK OFFERING:

As an eligible Fullerton Federal depositor, you have non-transferable rights, but no obligation, to purchase shares of Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. common stock during the stock offering, before any shares are made available for sale to the general public. The common stock is being offered at $14.00 per share, and no sales commission will be charged to purchasers during the offering.

 

Please read the enclosed materials carefully. If you are interested in purchasing shares of common stock, complete the enclosed stock order form and return it, with full payment, in the Stock Order Reply Envelope provided. Stock order forms and full payment must be received (not postmarked) by 2:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on September     , 2011. If you are considering purchasing stock with funds you have in an IRA or other retirement account, please call our Stock Information Center promptly for guidance, because these orders require additional processing time.

 

Sincerely,

Our Board of Directors urges you to join them in voting “FOR” the Plan.

 

Although you may vote on the Plan, we regret that Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. is unable to offer its common stock to you because the small number of depositors in your state makes registration or qualification of the common stock under your state securities laws prohibitively expensive or otherwise impractical. Therefore, we have not enclosed a stock order form.

Exhibit 99.4

Office of the Comptroller of the Currency Guidance for Accountholders

 

Your financial institution is converting to stock form and merging with another institution. In connection with this transaction, the acquiring institution is in the process of selling stock to the public. As an accountholder at the converting institution, you have certain priority subscription rights to purchase stock in the offering. These priority subscription rights are non-transferable. If you subscribe for stock, you will be asked to sign a statement that the purchase is for your own account, and that you have no agreement or understanding regarding the subsequent sale or transfer of any shares you receive.

On occasion, unscrupulous people attempt to persuade accountholders to transfer subscription rights, or to purchase shares in the offering based on the understanding that the shares will subsequently be transferred to others. Such arrangements violate federal regulations. If you participate in these schemes, you are breaking the law and may be subject to prosecution. If someone attempts to persuade you to participate in such a scheme, please contact the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) Consumer Inquiries, toll-free, at (800) 613-6743. OCC is very interested in ensuring that the prohibitions on transfer of subscription rights are not violated.

How will you know if you are being approached illegally? Typically, a fraudulent opportunist will approach you and offer to “loan” you money to purchase a significant amount of stock in the offering. In exchange for that “loan” you most likely will be asked either to transfer control of any stock purchased with that money to an account the other person controls, or sell the stock and give the majority of the profits to the other person. You may be told, untruthfully, that there is no risk to you, that the practice is common, and even if you are caught, that your legal expenses will be covered.

On the back of this page is a list of some key concepts that you should keep in mind when considering whether to participate in a mutual-to-stock conversion or stock issuance by a mutual holding company subsidiary. If you have questions, please contact the Stock Information Center at the telephone number listed elsewhere in the literature you are receiving. Alternatively, you can contact us at: ombudsman@occ.treas.gov.

What Investors Need to Know

Key concepts for investors to bear in mind when considering whether to participate in a conversion offering include the following:

 

  ·  

Know the Rules — By law, accountholders cannot sell or transfer their priority subscription rights, or the stock itself, prior to the completion of a financial institution’s conversion. Moreover, accountholders cannot enter into agreements or arrangements to sell or transfer either their subscription rights or the underlying conversion stock.

 

  ·  

“Neither a Borrower nor a Lender Be” — If someone offers to lend you money so that you can participate — or participate more fully — in a conversion, be extremely wary. Be even more wary if the source of the money is someone you do not know. The loan agreement may make you unable to certify truthfully that you are the true holder of the subscription rights and the true purchaser of the stock and that you have no agreements regarding the sale or transfer of the stock.

 

  ·  

Watch Out for Opportunists — The opportunist may tell you that he or she is a lawyer — or a consultant or a professional investor or some similarly impressive tale — who has experience with similar mutual conversion transactions. The opportunist may go to extreme lengths to assure you that the arrangement you are entering into is legitimate. They might tell you that they have done scores of these transactions and that this is simply how they work. Or they might downplay the warnings or restrictions in the prospectus or order form, telling you that “everyone” enters into such agreements or that the deal they are offering is legitimate. They may also tell you that you have no risk in the transaction. The cold, hard truth is that these are lies, and if you participate, you are breaking the law.

 

  ·  

Get the Facts from the Source — If you have any questions about the securities offering, ask your savings association for more information. If you have any doubts about a transaction proposed to you by someone else, ask the financial institution whether the proposed arrangement is proper. You may be able to find helpful resources by visiting your financial institution.

The bottom line for investors is always to remember that if an opportunity sounds too good to be true, it probably is too good to be true.

STOCK CERTIFICATE MAILING LETTER

[Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. Letterhead]

Dear Stockholder:

I would like to welcome you as a stockholder of Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. A total of     shares were purchased by investors at $14.00 per share. Thank you for your investment and your confidence in our organization.

Your stock certificate is enclosed. We recommend that you keep it in a safe place, such as in a safety deposit box or deposited with a brokerage firm. Replacing a lost or destroyed stock certificate can be a costly and lengthy process.

Carefully review the certificate to make sure the registration name and address are correct. If you find an error or have questions about your certificate, please contact Registrar and Transfer Company, our Transfer Agent:

on the web:

www.rtco.com

by mail:

Registrar and Transfer Company

10 Commerce Drive

Cranford, New Jersey 07016

by phone:

(800) 368-5948

by email:

info@rtco.com

If the enclosed stock certificate must be forwarded to the Transfer Agent, we recommend that you deliver it using insured, registered mail. If you change your address, please notify the Transfer Agent immediately, so that you will continue to receive all stockholder communications.

If you submitted a check or money order in full or partial payment for your stock order, you have received, or soon will receive, a check. It reflects interest at the Fairmount Bank’s passbook savings rate of     % per annum, calculated from the date your funds were received until                     , 2011.

If your stock order was paid in full or in part by authorizing a withdrawal from a Fullerton Federal Savings Association deposit account, the withdrawal was made on                     , 2011. Until then, interest was earned within the account at the applicable deposit account rate, and the interest remains in your account.

Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. common stock trades on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, under the symbol “FMTB.” Should you wish to buy or sell Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. shares in the future, please contact a brokerage firm or other firm offering investment services.

Questions and Answers

About the Conversion Merger of Fullerton Federal and the Fairmount Bancorp Stock Offering


This pamphlet answers questions about the conversion merger and stock offering. Investing in shares of common stock involves certain risks. Before making an investment decision, please read the enclosed Prospectus carefully, including the “Risk Factors” section, beginning on page     .

 

GENERAL — THE TRANSACTIONS

 

The Board of Directors of Fullerton Federal Savings Association has determined that the conversion merger is in the best interests of Fullerton Federal Savings Association’s customers.

 

Q. What are the conversion merger and the stock offering?

 

A. Pursuant to the Plan of Conversion Merger (the “Plan”), Fullerton Federal Savings Association (“Fullerton”) will convert form a mutual to a stock savings association. In connection with the conversion, Fullerton will sell all of its common stock to Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. and will be merged into Fairmount Bank.

 

     Also pursuant to the Plan, shares of common stock of Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. representing the appraised value of Fullerton are currently being offered for sale. Eligible depositors of Fullerton have a right, but no obligation, to purchase shares of common stock in the offering.

 

The conversion merger of Fullerton and the related Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. stock offering are referred to herein as “the transactions”. The completion of the transactions will be simultaneous.

 

Q: What are the reasons for the conversion merger?

 

A: Fullerton’s primary reasons for pursuing the conversion merger are its: limited options continuing as a stand-alone entity; growth and earnings pressure; increasing complexity of regulatory compliance; and a high operating expense ratio due to its small size. In addition, the stock offering provides the opportunity for Fullerton’s eligible depositors to purchase Fairmount Bancorp, Inc.’s common stock at below market price.

 

Q. What are the reasons for the offering?

 

A. Fairmount Bancorp, Inc.’s primary reasons for raising additional capital through the offering are to: provide a larger capital cushion for asset growth; support growth and diversification of operations, products and services; improve Fairmount Bank’s overall capital and competitive position; increase the loans to one borrower limit; and provide additional financial resources to pursue branch expansion and possible future acquisition opportunities (other than the acquisition of Fullerton, Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. has no current arrangements with respect to any branches or acquisitions).

 

Q. Is Fairmount Bank considered “well-capitalized” for regulatory purposes?

 

A. Yes. As of June 30, 2011, Fairmount Bank was considered “well-capitalized” for regulatory purposes.

 

Q. How will the conversion merger affect Fullerton customers?

 

A. If the Plan of Conversion Merger is approved by Fullerton’s depositors:

 

   

Fullerton Federal will be merged into Fairmount Bank.

 

   

The acquisition will not affect the balance or terms of existing Fullerton deposits or loans. Deposits will continue to be insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, up to the legal limit.

 

   

You may bank at Fullerton Federal’s office or at Fairmount Bank’s full-service office, located at 8216 Philadelphia Road, Baltimore.

 

   

You may take advantage of Fairmount Bank’s extended hours and expanded services.

 

Q. Will the stock offering affect Fullerton customers’ deposit accounts?

 

A. No. Deposit accounts will not be converted to stock.

 

THE FULLERTON PROXY VOTE

 

Although Fullerton received conditional regulatory approval, the Plan is also subject to the approval of Fullerton’s depositors.

 

Q. Why should I vote on the Plan of Conversion Merger?

 

A. Your vote “For” the Plan is extremely important. Each Fullerton depositor as of August 3, 2011, received a proxy card attached to a stock order form. These customers’ packages also include a Proxy Statement describing the Plan.

 

The Fullerton Board of Directors believes that the transactions provided for in the Plan are in the best interests of Fullerton’s customers.

 

Q. What happens if I don’t vote?

 

A. Your vote is very important. Not voting all the proxy cards you receive will have the same effect as voting “Against” the Plan. Without sufficient favorable votes, Fullerton and Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. cannot complete the conversion merger and the related stock offering.

 

Q. How do I vote?

 

A. Mark your vote, sign each proxy card enclosed and return the card(s) in the enclosed Proxy Reply Envelope. Alternatively, you may vote via the Internet by following the simple instructions on the proxy card. PLEASE VOTE PROMPTLY. NOT VOTING HAS THE SAME EFFECT AS VOTING “AGAINST” THE PLAN.

 

Q. How many votes are available to me?

 

A. Depositors are entitled to one vote for each $100 on deposit. No depositor may cast more than 1,000 votes. Proxy cards are not imprinted with your number of votes; however, votes will be automatically tallied by computer.


 

Q. Why did I receive more than one proxy card?

 

A. If you had more than one deposit account on August 3, 2011, you may have received more than one proxy card, depending on the ownership structure of your accounts. There are no duplicate cards — please promptly vote all the proxy cards sent to you.

 

Q. More than one name appears on my proxy card. Who must sign?

 

A. The names reflect the title of your deposit account. Proxy cards for joint deposit accounts require the signature of only one of the accountholders. Proxy cards for trust or custodian accounts must be signed by the trustee or the custodian, not the listed beneficiary.

 

THE FAIRMOUNT BANCORP, INC. OFFERING AND PURCHASING SHARES

 

Q. How many shares are being offered and at what price?

 

A. Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. is offering for sale between 36,428 and 49,285 shares of common stock (subject to increase to 56,678 shares) at $14.00 per share. No sales commission will be charged to purchasers.

 

Q. Who is eligible to purchase stock during the offering?

 

A. Pursuant to regulation and the Plan, non-transferable rights to subscribe for shares of Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. common stock in the Subscription Offering have been granted in the following descending order of priority:

 

       Priority #1—Depositors of Fullerton with aggregate account balances of at least $50 as of the close of business on December 31, 2009;

 

       Priority #2—Fairmount’s tax-qualified employee stock ownership plan;

 

       Priority #3—Depositors of Fullerton with aggregate account balances of at least $50 as of the close of business on June 30, 2011; and

 

       Priority #4—All other depositors of Fullerton as of August 3, 2011;

 

     Shares not sold in the Subscription Offering may be offered for sale to the general public in a Community Offering, with a preference given to natural persons and trusts of natural persons residing in Baltimore City and Baltimore County, Maryland.

 

Q. I am eligible to subscribe for shares of common stock in the Subscription Offering but am not interested in investing. May I allow someone else to use my stock order form to take advantage of my priority as an eligible Fullerton depositor?

 

A. No. Subscription…rights are non-transferable! Only those eligible to subscribe in the Subscription Offering, as listed above, may purchase shares in the Subscription Offering. To preserve subscription rights, the shares may only be registered in the name(s) of eligible depositor(s). On occasion, unscrupulous people attempt to persuade depositors to transfer subscription rights, or to purchase shares in an offering based on an understanding that the shares will be subsequently transferred to others. Participation in such schemes is against the law and may subject involved parties to prosecution. If you become aware of any such activities, please notify the Stock Information Center promptly so that steps can be taken to protect eligible depositors’ subscription rights in the offering. We urge you to read the enclosed “Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) Guidance for Accountholders” for more information on this important topic, or you may contact the OCC Consumer Inquiries, toll-free, at 1-(800) 613-6743.

 

Q. How may I buy shares during the Subscription and Community Offerings?

 

A. Shares can be purchased by completing a stock order form and returning it, with full payment, so that it is physically received (not postmarked) by the offering deadline. Delivery of a stock order form may be made by mail, using the Stock Order Reply Envelope provided, by overnight courier to the indicated address on the stock order form, or by hand-delivery to Fullerton Federal Savings Association, located at 7527 Belair Road, Baltimore, Maryland. Please do not hand-deliver stock order forms to Fairmount Bank. Please do not mail Stock Order Forms to Fairmount Bank or Fullerton Federal Savings Association.

 

Q. What is the deadline for purchasing shares?

 

A. To purchase shares in the Subscription or Community Offerings, you must deliver a properly completed, signed stock order form, with full payment, so that it is received (not postmarked) by 2:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on September     , 2011. Acceptable methods for delivery of stock order forms are described above.

 

Q. How may I pay for the shares?

 

A. Payment for shares can be remitted in these ways:

 

  (1) By personal check, bank check or money order, payable to Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. These will be deposited upon receipt. Wires and third party checks will not be accepted. Fullerton and Fairmount Bank line of credit checks may not be remitted for this purchase.

 

  (2) By authorized deposit account withdrawal of funds from Fullerton deposit account(s). The stock order form section titled “Method of Payment — Deposit Account Withdrawal” allows
  you to list the Fullerton account number(s) and amount(s) to be withdrawn. Funds designated for direct withdrawal must be in the account(s) at the time the stock order form is received. You may not authorize direct withdrawal from accounts with check-writing privileges. Please submit a check instead. Additionally, you may not designate direct withdrawal from a prearranged funeral expense account held at Fullerton. If you wish to use funds in a funeral expense account, you must terminate the underlying contract for funeral services prior to placing your stock order. Please call the Stock Information Center if you have a question about using funeral expense account funds to purchase Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. common stock.


 

     If you wish to pay with cash (not recommended), please contact the Stock Information Center.

 

     If you are considering purchasing stock with funds you have in an IRA or other retirement account, please call our Stock Information Center promptly for guidance, because these orders require additional processing time.

 

Q. Will I earn interest on my funds?

 

A. Yes. If you pay by personal check, bank check or money order, you will earn interest at the Fairmount Bank passbook savings rate from the day we receive your payment until the completion of the offering. At that time, you will be issued a check for interest earned on these funds. If you pay for shares by authorizing a direct withdrawal from your Fullerton deposit account(s), your funds will continue earning interest within the account, at the applicable deposit account rate. The interest will remain in your account(s) when the designated withdrawal is made, upon completion of the offering.

 

Q. Are there limits to how many shares I can order?

 

A. Yes. The minimum order is 25 shares ($350). The maximum allowable purchase by an individual is 5% of the shares of common stock sold in the offering (example purchase limits:              shares at the minimum and              shares at the adjusted maximum of the offering range). Additionally, no person or entity, together with associates or persons acting in concert with such person or entity, may purchase, in all categories of the offering combined, more than 5% of the shares of common stock sold in the offering. More detail on purchase limits, including the definition of “associate” and “acting in concert”, can be found in the Prospectus section entitled “The Offering—Limitations on Common Stock Purchases”.

 

Q. May I use a loan from Fullerton or Fairmount Bank to pay for shares?

Q. Will the stock be insured?

 

A. No. Like any common stock, Fairmount Bancorp, Inc.’s stock cannot be insured.

 

Q. Will dividends be paid on the stock?

 

A. Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. does not currently pay dividends on its outstanding shares of common stock. We have no plans or understandings with respect to the payment of dividends. The payment and amount of any dividend will depend upon a number of factors, including capital requirements, our financial condition and results of operations, tax considerations, statutory and regulatory limitations and general economic conditions. We cannot assure you that we will pay dividends in the foreseeable future, or that, if paid, we will not reduce or eliminate dividends in the future.
