Item 1.01. Entry into a Definitive Material Agreement
On September 7, 2017, FS Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") entered into an underwriting agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement") with Raymond James & Associates, Inc.,  as representative of the underwriters named therein (the "Underwriters") providing for the offer and sale in a firm commitment offering of 510,638 shares of the Company's common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), sold by the Company at a public offering price of $47.00 per share ($44.18 per share, net of underwriting discounts).  The net proceeds of the offering, after underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses, and assuming the underwriters do not exercise the over-allotment option, will be approximately $22.3 million.  The closing of the sale of Common Stock is expected to occur on or about September 12, 2017.  In addition, pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company has granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 76,596 shares of Common Stock to cover over-allotments, if any (collectively, with the Common Stock described above, the "Shares").
The Underwriting Agreement includes representations, warranties and covenants by the Company customary for agreements of this nature.  Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company has also agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or to contribute to payments the Underwriters may be required to make because of any of those liabilities.
The Underwriting Agreement is filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.  The description of the Underwriting Agreement herein is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Underwriting Agreement.
Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, directors and executive officers of the Company entered into agreements in substantially the form included as an exhibit to the Underwriting Agreement providing for a 90-day "lock-up" period with respect to sales of specified securities, subject to certain exceptions.  

The offer and sale of shares of Common Stock in the Offering have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-215810) declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 10, 2017 (the "Registration Statement"). The offer and sale of the shares of Common Stock in the Offering are described in the Company's prospectus constituting a part of the Registration Statement, as supplemented by a final prospectus supplement dated September 7, 2017.
A copy of the opinion of Breyer & Associates PC relating to the validity of the Shares is attached as Exhibit 5.1 to this Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
