The Offering In accordance with a plan of conversion adopted by the Board of Directors of the Bank (the “Plan”), the Bank intends to convert from the mutual form of organization to the stock form of organization (the “Conversion”). In connection with the Conversion, the Bank will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Holding Company. Pursuant to the Plan, the Holding Company will offer and sell up to 3,680,000 shares (subject to increase up to 4,232,000 shares) (the “Shares” or “Offer Shares”) of its common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), in a subscription offering (the “Subscription Offering”) to (1) depositors of the Bank with Qualifying Deposits (as defined in the Plan) as of September 30, 2012 (“Eligible Account Holders”), (2) the Bank’s tax-qualified employee plans, including the employee stock ownership plan established by the Bank (the “ESOP”), (3) Supplemental Eligible Account Holders (as defined in the Plan); and (4) Other Members (as defined in the Plan). Subject to the prior subscription rights of the above-listed parties, the Holding Company may offer for sale in a community offering (the “Community Offering” and when referred to together with or subsequent to the Subscription Offering, the “Subscription and Community Offering”) the Offer Shares not subscribed for or ordered in the Subscription Offering to members of the general public to whom a copy of the Prospectus (as hereinafter defined) is delivered with a preference given to natural persons (including trusts of natural persons) residing in the Community (as defined in the Plan), and thereafter to cover orders of other members of the general public. It is anticipated that any Shares not subscribed for in the Subscription and Community Offering may be offered to certain members of the general public on a best efforts basis through a selected dealers agreement (the “Syndicated Community Offering”) (the Subscription Offering, Community Offering and Syndicated Community Offering are collectively referred to as the “Offering”). It is acknowledged that the purchase of Offer Shares in the Offering is subject to the maximum and minimum purchase limitations as described in the Plan and that the Holding Company may reject, in whole or in part, any orders received in the Community Offering or the Syndicated Community Offering. In connection with the Conversion, the Bank filed with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”) an application on Form AC for conversion to a stock bank (together with any other required ancillary applications and/or notices, the “Conversion Application”) and amendments thereto as required by the OCC in accordance with the Home Owners’ Loan Act, as amended (the “HOLA”), and 12 C.F.R. Part 192. The Holding Company has filed with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “FRB”) an application on Form H-(e)1 (together with any other required ancillary applications and/or notices, the “Holding Company Application”) to become a unitary savings and loan holding company under the HOLA and the regulations promulgated thereunder. In addition, the Holding Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-194501) (the “Registration Statement”), containing a prospectus relating to the Offering, for the registration of the Shares under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “1933 Act”), and has filed such amendments thereto and such amended prospectuses as may have been required to the date hereof. The term “Registration Statement” shall include any documents incorporated by reference therein and all financial schedules and exhibits thereto, as amended, including post-effective amendments. The prospectus, as amended, on file with the Commission at the time the Registration Statement initially became effective is hereinafter called the “Prospectus,” except that if any prospectus is filed by the Holding Company pursuant to Rule 424(b) or (c) of the rules and regulations of the Commission under the 1933 Act (the “1933 Act Regulations”) differing from the prospectus on file at the time the Registration Statement initially became effective, the term “Prospectus” shall refer to the prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) or (c) from and after the time said prospectus is filed with the Commission.
The Offer (a) Provided that this Agreement shall not have been terminated in accordance with Section 8.1, Parent shall cause Sub to, and Sub shall, commence (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “Exchange Act”)) the Offer no later than May 18, 2009 (the date on which the Offer is commenced being referred to herein as the “Commencement Date”). The obligations of Sub to accept for payment and to pay for any Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Offer (as it may be extended in accordance with requirements of this Section 1.1(a)) shall be subject only to the conditions set forth in Annex I hereto (the “Offer Conditions”). Subject to the prior satisfaction or, to the extent permitted, waiver by Parent or Sub of the Offer Conditions, Parent shall cause Sub to, and Sub shall, consummate the Offer in accordance with its terms and accept for payment all Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer and pay the Offer Price in exchange for each such Share promptly following such acceptance in compliance with Rule 14e-1(c) of the Exchange Act (the time at which Sub first accepts any Shares for payment pursuant to the Offer being referred to herein as the “Acceptance Time”). The Offer shall be made by means of an offer to purchase (the “Offer to Purchase”) that contains the terms set forth in this Agreement and the Offer Conditions. Parent expressly reserves the right to waive any of the Offer Conditions, to increase the Offer Price and to make any other changes in the terms of the Offer; provided, however, that Sub shall not, and Parent shall cause Sub not to, without the prior written consent of the Company (such consent to be authorized by the Company Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof), (i) decrease the Offer Price, (ii) change the form of consideration payable in the Offer, (iii) decrease the number of Shares sought in the Offer, (iv) waive or change the Minimum Condition, (v) impose additional conditions to the Offer or amend any of the Offer Conditions so as to broaden the scope of such Offer Condition, (vi) extend the Offer beyond a date that is twenty-one (21) business days after commencement of the Offer or the last extension (in accordance with this Section 1.1), if any, of the Offer, whichever is later (the “Expiration Date”) except as set forth in Sections 1.1(b) and 1.1(c), or (vii) otherwise amend any other term or condition of the Offer in a manner materially adverse to the holders of Shares.
Future Offerings Subject to the exceptions described below, the Company will not, without the prior written consent of a majority-in-interest of the Buyers, negotiate or contract with any party to obtain additional equity financing (including debt financing with an equity component) that involves (A) the issuance of Common Stock at a discount to the market price of the Common Stock on the date of issuance (taking into account the value of any warrants or options to acquire Common Stock issued in connection therewith) or (B) the issuance of convertible securities that are convertible into an indeterminate number of shares of Common Stock or (C) the issuance of warrants during the period (the “Lock-up Period”) beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the later of (i) two hundred seventy (270) days from the Closing Date and (ii) one hundred eighty (180) days from the date the Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) is declared effective (plus any days in which sales cannot be made thereunder). In addition, subject to the exceptions described below, the Company will not conduct any equity financing (including debt with an equity component) (“Future Offerings”) during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending two (2) years after the end of the Lock-up Period unless it shall have first delivered to each Buyer, at least twenty (20) business days prior to the closing of such Future Offering, written notice describing the proposed Future Offering, including the terms and conditions thereof and proposed definitive documentation to be entered into in connection therewith, and providing each Buyer an option during the fifteen (15) day period following delivery of such notice to purchase its pro rata share (based on the ratio that the aggregate principal amount of Notes purchased by it hereunder bears to the aggregate principal amount of Notes purchased hereunder) of the securities being offered in the Future Offering on the same terms as contemplated by such Future Offering (the limitations referred to in this sentence and the preceding sentence are collectively referred to as the “Capital Raising Limitations”). In the event the terms and conditions of a proposed Future Offering are amended in any respect after delivery of the notice to the Buyers concerning the proposed Future Offering, the Company shall deliver a new notice to each Buyer describing the amended terms and conditions of the proposed Future Offering and each Buyer thereafter shall have an option during the fifteen (15) day period following delivery of such new notice to purchase its pro rata share of the securities being offered on the same terms as contemplated by such proposed Future Offering, as amended. The foregoing sentence shall apply to successive amendments to the terms and conditions of any proposed Future Offering. The Capital Raising Limitations shall not apply to any transaction involving (i) issuances of securities in a firm commitment underwritten public offering (excluding a continuous offering pursuant to Rule 415 under the 1933 Act, an equity line of credit or similar financing arrangement) resulting in net proceeds to the Company of in excess of $15,000,000, or (ii) issuances of securities as consideration for a merger, consolidation or purchase of assets, or in connection with any strategic partnership or joint venture (the primary purpose of which is not to raise equity capital), or in connection with the disposition or acquisition of a business, product or license by the Company. The Capital Raising Limitations also shall not apply to the issuance of securities upon exercise or conversion of the Company’s options, warrants or other convertible securities outstanding as of the date hereof or to the grant of additional options or warrants, or the issuance of additional securities, under any Company stock option or restricted stock plan approved by the shareholders of the Company. Notwithstanding anything in this section 4(e) to the contrary, in the event the Company’s Board of Directors decides, in good faith, to enter into a transaction or relationship in which the Company issues shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company to a person or any entity which is, itself or through its subsidiaries, an operating company in a business synergistic with the business of the Company and in which the Company received benefits in addition to the investment of funds, but shall not include a transaction in which the Company is issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital or to an entity whose business is investing in securities, the Company shall be permitted to do so.
