Effective March 27, 2012, James Brabeck, Maryam Hamzeh and Bonnie Murphy were appointed as directors of Mission Community Bancorp, San Luis Obispo, California, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Mission Community Bank.  None of such individuals has yet been assigned to any Board committees.

Item 5.03   Amendment to Bylaws

On March 27, 2012 the Board of Directors of Mission Community Bancorp (the "Company") adopted Amended and Restated Bylaws to replace its current Bylaws.  The Amended and Restated Bylaws were adopted in order to: (i) update the Company's Bylaws with respect to allowing electronic communications with directors and shareholders, and holding of certain meetings by electronic means if desired; (ii) allowing the Company to implement an additional method of issuing shares via electronic book-entry form; (iii) allowing the Company to distribute annual reports to shareholders by qualifying electronic means if approved by the Board of Directors; (iv) modifying the time periods prescribed for shareholders to be able to nominate directors and (v) deleting sections of the Company's Bylaws as previously required due to the Company's prior participation in the TARP Capital Purchase Program of the U.S. Department of the Treasury.  The Amended and Restated Bylaws were effective upon adoption by the Board on March 27, 2012.

A copy of the Company's Amended and Restated Bylaws is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
