Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On November 10, 2015, Polonia Bank (the “Bank”), the wholly-owned subsidiary of Polonia Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”) entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to their formal written agreement (the “2014 Agreement”) dated October 21, 2014. The Amendment relates to the findings of the OCC following its regularly scheduled examination of the Bank that began in the second quarter of 2015.

 

The Amendment provides, among other things, that within specified time frames, the Bank will:

 

Submit to the OCC a revised written compliance management program and, upon receipt of no supervisory objection, adopt and implement such program; and

 

Engage an independent consultant to review all loans originated by the Bank’s FHA department for the calendar years 2012, 2013 and 2014 to determine compliance with the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act of 1974 and regulations thereunder; submit to the OCC the results of the consultant’s review and a remediation plan for resolving any violations found in such review; and, upon receipt of no supervisory objection, adopt and implement the remediation plan.

 

Articles II through X of the 2014 Agreement, which imposed substantive requirements on the Bank, remain in effect without modification. The 2014 Agreement and the Amendment and each of their provisions will remain in effect unless and until the provisions are amended, suspended, waived, or terminated in writing by the OCC.

 

The description of the Amendment set forth in this Item 1.01 is qualified in its entirety by the Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
