Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 24, 2011, Porter Bancorp’s bank subsidiary, PBI Bank, entered into a Consent Order with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and the Kentucky Department of Financial Institutions (KDFI).
By entering the Consent Order, PBI Bank has agreed to take certain measures in a number of areas including (i) undertaking an independent assessment of management resources; (ii) maintaining specified capital levels; (iii) reducing problem loans; (iv) conducting regular board reviews of the adequacy of the loan loss allowance; (v) strengthening loan review procedures and policies; (vi) reducing construction and development loan concentrations; (vii) limiting future asset growth; and (viii) limiting lending to troubled borrowers. The Consent Order also provides that the Bank will obtain prior regulatory approval before the payment of cash dividends. PBI Bank has already adopted and implemented many of the actions prescribed in the Consent Order.
The Consent Order is the result of ongoing discussions between regulators and PBI Bank based on a regulatory examination conducted in late 2010. The Consent Order will remain in effect until it is modified or terminated by the FDIC and the KDFI. PBI Bank's customer deposits remain fully insured to the highest limit set by the FDIC.
A copy of the Consent Order and the Stipulation are attached hereto as, respectively, Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2.
