"(3) A bank's average assessment base for any semiannual period shall be the average of such bank's assessment bases for the two dates, falling within such semiannual period, for which the bank is required to submit reports of condition pursuant to paragraph (3) of subsection (a) of this section (referred to hereafter in this section as 'reports of condition'). ''(4) A bank's assessment base for any date shall be equal to the bank's liability for deposits (including the deposits of any other bank for which it has assumed liability) as reported in its report of condition for such date, plus the assessment base additions set forth in paragraph (5), and less the assessment base deductions set forth in paragraph (6). "(5) The assessment base additions shall be the amounts of— "(A) uninvested trust funds required to be separately stated in the bank's report of condition; and "(B) any deposits received in any office of the bank for deposit in any other office of the bank located in the United States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, or the Virgin Islands, except those which have^ been included in deposits in the report of condition or which have been offset in the report of condition by an equal amount of cash items in its possession drawn on itself (on the same type of deposit as those offset) and not charged against deposit liabilities at the close of business on the date as of which the report of condition is made, either in their actual amount as shown on the books of the bank, or, if not so shown, in an amount determined by means of an experience factor pursuant to regulations prescribed by the Board of Directors.
