Unknown - Folsom/Irving/Milpitas
My logic is branches within small geographical areas are the most vulnerable. The branches in "Keep" have the highest chance of having large number of Premier customers. Also - a Cathay branch can't exist nearby.
I was in the San Bruno branch a few weeks ago and one of the staff members mentioned since San Bruno is new HSBC has a 10 year lease and they may keep that location. However, they are still finalizing everything.
