ITEM 2.01. COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

On August 31, 2014, Hanmi Financial Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”), completed its previously announced merger with Central Bancorp, Inc., a Texas corporation (“CBI”), pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 15, 2013, as amended and restated on March 23, 2014, by and among the Corporation, Harmony Merger Sub Inc., a Texas corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation (“Merger Sub”), and CBI (the “Merger Agreement”). At the effective time of the merger (the “Effective Time”), Merger Sub merged with and into CBI, with CBI continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation (the “Merger”). Immediately following the Merger, CBI merged with and into the Corporation, with the Corporation continuing as the surviving corporation, and United Central Bank, a Texas state-chartered bank and a wholly owned subsidiary of CBI, merged with and into Hanmi Bank, a California state-chartered bank and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation, with Hanmi Bank continuing as the surviving bank.

In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, holders of CBI’s common stock, par value $1.00 per share, have the right to receive $17.64 per share in cash for each share of CBI common stock held immediately prior to the Effective Time, without interest and less any required deductions or withholdings for taxes, or $50 million in the aggregate.
