TopLine Federal Credit Union Receives Necessary Regulator Approvals to Merge Como Northtown Community Credit Union

Merger Effective April 1, 2011


MAPLE GROVE, MN--(Marketwire - April 1, 2011) - TopLine Federal Credit Union announces it has received approval from the National Credit Union Administration and the Minnesota Commerce Department for the merger of Como Northtown Community Credit Union.

In early March Como Northtown Community Credit Union members voted to merge with TopLine Federal Credit Union and now more than 7,000 new members will join the TopLine family. The combined credit union will have five branch locations across the Twin Cities that will continue to serve members in the communities where they live and work.

Members will be able to access all branch locations to conduct their personal and business banking after the full integration of operations is complete by the fall of this year, with signage changes taking place in the near term.

"We look forward to offering members of the Como Park Community the same high level of service they have always received, delivered by the same familiar faces," says Harry Carter, President and CEO of TopLine Federal Credit Union. "Each of our credit unions have a heritage of over 70 years of dedication to helping members achieve their financial goals by offering quality products and services at competitive rates. And obviously there are no plans to change that, of course. We look forward to serving our new members in our new neighborhood, Como Park."

The new TopLine Federal Credit Union Como Park branch will celebrate the merger with an open house week during business hours between May 2 and May 7 at the new TopLine Como Park branch, 976 Lexington Parkway North, St. Paul.

TopLine Federal Credit Union, a Twin Cities-based credit union, is Minnesota's 13th largest, with assets of more than $270 million. Established in 1935, TopLine offers a complete line of financial services from five locations with the addition of the Como Park branch in St. Paul along with branches in Brooklyn Park, Edina, Maple Grove and Plymouth, as well as by phone and online at www.TopLinecu.com. Membership is available to anyone who lives, works, worships, attends school or volunteers in Anoka, Carver, Dakota, Hennepin, Ramsey, Scott or Washington Counties and their immediate family members.
