Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration |
In aggregate, the PL Capital Group owns 251,425 shares of Common Stock of the Company acquired at an aggregate cost of $2,425,716.
The amount of funds expended by Financial Edge Fund to acquire the 127,989 shares of Common Stock it holds in its name is $1,239,709. Such funds were provided from Financial Edge Fund’s available capital and from time to time by margin provided by BNP Paribas Prime Brokerage Inc. (“BNP Paribas”) on such firm’s usual terms and conditions.
The amount of funds expended by Financial Edge Strategic to acquire the 56,089 shares of Common Stock it holds in its name is $542,779. Such funds were provided from Financial Edge Strategic’s available capital and from time to time by margin provided by BNP Paribas on such firm’s usual terms and conditions.
The amount of funds expended by Focused Fund to acquire the 1,589 shares of Common Stock it holds in its name is $5,827. Such funds were provided from Focused Fund’s available capital and from time to time by margin provided by BNP Paribas on such firm’s usual terms and conditions.
The amount of funds expended by Goodbody/PL LP to acquire the 63,758 shares of Common Stock it holds in its name is $618,073. Such funds were provided from Goodbody/PL LP’s available capital and from time to time by margin provided by BNP Paribas on such firm’s usual terms and conditions.
The amount of funds expended by the Doris Lashley Testamentary Trust to acquire the 2,000 shares of Common Stock it holds in its name is $19,328. Such funds were provided from the Trust’s available capital.
Any purchases of Common Stock made by members of the PL Capital Group using funds borrowed from BNP Paribas, if any, were made in margin transactions on that firm’s usual terms and conditions. All or part of the shares of Common Stock owned by members of the PL Capital Group may from time to time be pledged with one or more banking institutions or brokerage firms as collateral for loans made by such entities to members of the PL Capital Group. Such loans, if any, generally bear interest at a rate based upon the federal funds rate plus a margin. Such indebtedness, if any, may be refinanced with other banks or broker-dealers. As of the date of this filing, no member of the PL Capital Group has margin or other loans outstanding secured by Common Stock other than Goodbody/PL LP.
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction |
This is the second amendment to the initial Schedule 13D, dated May 10, 2007, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 18, 2007. The PL Capital Group owns 8.0% of the Company, based upon the Company’s aggregate outstanding shares. PL Capital Group owns 18.8% of the outstanding shares held by the public, excluding shares held by Polonia MHC, the mutual holding company parent of the Company.
PL Capital Group’s intent is to influence the policies of the Company and assert PL Capital Group’s shareholder rights, with a goal of maximizing the value of the Common Stock. In this regard, PL Capital Group’s principals mailed a letter dated May 6, 2011 to Polonia’s Board of Directors urging the Company to complete a “second step” capital raise. A copy of the letter is attached as Exhibit 2 to this amended Schedule 13D, along with a related press release which is attached as Exhibit 3 to this amended Schedule 13D.
As of the date of this filing, the PL Capital Group does not have an intent, nor has it reserved the right, to engage in a control transaction, or any contested solicitation for the election of directors.
Members of the PL Capital Group may make further purchases of shares of Common Stock, although the PL Capital Group has no present intention of increasing PL Capital Group’s aggregate holdings above 9.999% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. Members of the PL Capital Group may dispose of any or all the shares of Common Stock held by them.
To the extent the actions described herein may be deemed to constitute a “control purpose” with respect to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the regulations thereunder, the PL Capital Group has such a purpose. Except as noted in this amended Schedule 13D, no member of the PL Capital Group has any plans or proposals, which relate to, or would result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (b) through (j), inclusive of Item (4) of Schedule 13D. Such individuals may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their positions and formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto.
Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Company |
The percentages used in this amended Schedule 13D are calculated based upon the 3,157,096 common shares of Common Stock that the Company reported as outstanding as of March 31, 2011, in its Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 22, 2011.
