On July 14, 2011, First Advantage Bancorp (“the Company”), the holding company of First Federal Savings Bank (the “Bank”), announced that the Bank submitted an application to the Tennessee Department of Financial Institutions (“the Department”) to convert from a federally-chartered savings bank to a Tennessee-chartered commercial bank to be known as “First Advantage Bank.” Concurrently, notice of intent to convert was filed with the Office of Thrift Supervision. Also, the Company will file an application with the Federal Reserve Board to obtain approval to become a bank holding company. Subject to regulatory approval, the Company expects the charter conversion to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2011. Upon completion of the charter conversion, the Department will regulate the Bank and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) will become the Bank’s primary federal regulator. No assurance can be given that such regulatory approvals will be obtained. There will be no changes to the directors, officers or employees of the Bank as a result of the charter conversion. The Bank’s FDIC insurance coverage, and rates and terms of loans and deposits, will not change as a result of the charter conversion. For more information, reference is made to the Company’s press release dated July 14, 2011, a copy of which is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
