DEREGISTERING OF SHARES
This Post-Effective Amendment No.2 relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-2 (File No. 333-38260) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 31, 2000, as amended (the “Registration Statement”), which registered up to 1,517,241 shares of common stock, no par value per share (the “NMB Common Stock”), of National Mercantile Bancorp (“NMB”).
On March 12, 2007, pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 15, 2006, by and among NMB, FCB Bancorp (“FCB”), and First California Financial Group, Inc. (“FCFG”), a new Delaware corporation formed and wholly-owned by NMB, NMB merged with and into FCFG (the “Merger”), and each share of NMB Common Stock has been converted into the right to receive one (1) share of common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“FCFG Common Stock”), of FCFG.
As a result of the Merger, NMB has terminated all of its offerings of NMB Common Stock pursuant to its existing registration statements, including the Registration Statement. In accordance with an undertaking made by NMB in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any securities of NMB which remain unsold at the termination of the offering, NMB hereby removes from registration all NMB Common Stock registered under the Registration Statement which remain unsold as of the date hereof.
