Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On January 31, 2002, First Community Bancorp ("FCB") completed its acquisition of Pacific Western National Bank ("Pacific Western") (the "Acquisition") through its wholly owned subsidiary, First Professional Bank, National Association ("First Professional"). The Acquisition was consummated pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 21, 2001, by and between First Community Bancorp ("First Community") and Pacific Western National Bank ("Pacific Western") (the "Merger Agreement").
As a result of the Acquisition, each issued and outstanding share of common stock of Pacific Western was converted into the right to receive $37.15 in cash. Both Pacific Western and First Community Bank of the Desert, a wholly owned subsidiary of First Community, were unified with First Professional in the Acquisition. The resulting bank, a wholly owned subsidiary of First Community, has been renamed Pacific Western National Bank.
First Community financed the Acquisition in part with the proceeds from its recent rights offering. First Community distributed to its shareholders of record, as of December 17, 2001, rights to purchase additional shares of common stock at a price of $19.25 per share. The rights offering, which expired on January 23, 2002, was oversubscribed, and raised $23,000,000 in proceeds to First Community.
The description of the Merger Agreement contained herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement which is incorporated herein as Exhibit 2.1. After giving effect to the Acquisition, the total assets of First Community and its subsidiaries increased to approximately $1.25 billion, total deposits increased to approximately $1.09 billion and total shareholder equity increased to approximately $96.8 million as of September 30, 2001, on a pro forma basis.
