B. The Commission shall also charge additional fees:

4. Of $7,500 for investigating an application of merger. The Commission shall not be entitled to any further fees for investigating any application to retain existing branches of the applying banks as branches of the merged bank;

5. Of $1,000 for investigating an application for authority to change the location of an existing bank or branch bank; and

6. Of $2,000 for investigating an application for authority to exercise trust powers.

C.
