Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
During the second quarter of 2005, First Charter Corporation (the "Corporation") received notice of payment of Bank Owned Life Insurance ("BOLI") in the amount of $852,000. This payment will be booked as a one-time gain during the second quarter of 2005, and reflected in the quarter-end income statement. This payment represents the largest payment received by the Corporation since the BOLI was purchased late in the fourth quarter of 2002. Because of the nature of the BOLI program, the amount and timing of any future claims cannot be predicted.
The information in this Current Report is being furnished and shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933.
