Conditional Approval 1344 — Paycom National Trust Bank, rebuttal of control

August 5, 2025 Paul W. Scott, Esq. Associate General Counsel Office of the General Counsel The Vanguard Group, Inc. Post Office Box 2600 Valley Forge, Pennsylvania 19482-2600 Subject: Rebuttal of Control by The Vanguard Group, Inc., Malvern, Pennsylvania Paycom National Trust Bank, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Charter Number 25289 OCC Application Control Number 2025-CBCA-342464 Dear Associate General Counsel Scott: I am writing on behalf of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, U.S. Treasury Department (OCC) in response to your letter of June 30, 2025, on behalf of The Vanguard Group, Inc., and its subsidiaries and affiliates (hereinafter collectively Vanguard) seeking to rebut the applicable presumption of control under section 17(j) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 USC 1817(j) (the Change in Bank Control Act, or CBCA), and the OCC’s corresponding regulations at 12 CFR 5.50. Specifically, Vanguard seeks to rebut the presumption of control with respect to the holdings by mutual funds, other pooled investment vehicles, and separate accounts that Vanguard directly and indirectly sponsors, manages, or advises in Paycom Software, Inc. (PAYC). PAYC owns and controls Paycom National Trust Bank (PNTB), a non-depository national trust bank. Vanguard proposed to control more than 10 percent of the voting shares of PAYC, resulting in the presumption of indirect control of PNTB by Vanguard for purposes of 12 USC 1817(j) and 12 CFR 5.50. In your letter, you note that Vanguard may from time to time and as part of their ordinary course investment activities, in aggregate, acquire more than 10 percent of the voting securities of PAYC. However, Vanguard does not seek to control or to influence the day-to-day management or policies of PAYC or PNTB. To rebut the presumption of control and ensure that Vanguard will not exercise a controlling influence over PAYC or PNTB, Vanguard provided the attached Passivity Commitments, which are consistent with the passivity commitments set out in the “Change in Bank Control” booklet of the Comptroller’s Licensing Manual. Based on the Passivity Commitments, the OCC finds that the information submitted is sufficient to rebut the presumption of control and poses no objection to Vanguard’s retention or acquisition of ownership of PAYC’s voting shares aggregating 10 percent or more but less than 25 percent. This decision to grant a waiver of the requirements to file a “Notice of Change in Bank Control” is subject to the condition that Vanguard adhere to the conditions and requirements of the attached Passivity Commitments. This condition is a condition “imposed in writing by a federal banking agency in connection with any action on any application, notice, or Conditional Approval #1344 September 2025

• 2 - other request” within the meaning of 12 USC 1818. As such, the condition is enforceable under 12 USC 1818. This decision does not change or eliminate any future filing requirements under the CBCA or 12 CFR 5.50 should the facts or circumstances of the ownership structure change. This decision and the activities and communications by OCC employees in connection with the filing do not constitute a contract, express or implied, or any other obligation binding upon the OCC, the United States, any agency or entity of the United States, or any officer or employee of the United States, and do not affect the ability of the OCC to exercise its supervisory, regulatory and examination authorities under applicable law and regulations. The foregoing may not be waived or modified by any employee or agent of the OCC or the United States. The OCC’s decision is based on Vanguard’s representations, submissions, and information available to the OCC as of this date. The OCC may modify, suspend, or rescind this decision, if a material change in the information on which the OCC relied occurs prior to the date of the transaction to which this decision pertains. Please include the OCC Control Number on any correspondence related to this filing. If you have any questions, please contact Director for Large Bank Licensing Jason Almonte at jason.almonte@occ.treas.gov. Sincerely, /s/ Sebastian R. Astrada Director for Licensing cc: Satish M.
