Item 1.02          Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 31, 2017, HMN Financial, Inc. (the “Company”) voluntarily prepaid all of its obligations under the Loan Agreement with Project Hawkeye, L.L.C., dated December 15, 2014 (“Loan Agreement”), which originally provided for a term loan of up to $10.0 million that was evidenced by a promissory note that bore interest at a rate of 6.5% per annum (the “Note”). The amount of the prepayment was $7,077,097, which included the outstanding principal balance of $7.0 million and accrued but unpaid interest on the Note. The prepayment amount was funded by a $6.0 million cash dividend from the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Home Federal Savings Bank, and existing Company cash. No prepayment premiums or penalties were incurred by the Company as a result of the prepayment. As a result of the prepayment, the Loan Agreement and the Note were terminated.

At the time the Note was repaid there was no material relationship between the Company or its affiliates and Project Hawkeye, L.L.C. other than the Loan Agreement and the Note.
