INTRODUCTION
This Amendment No. 4 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on May 8, 2003 and amended on June 19, 2003, July 11, 2003 and July 14, 2003 by Henderson Citizens Bancshares, Inc., a Texas corporation and registered bank holding company (the “Company”), and HCB Merger Corp., a newly-formed, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “merger subsidiary”), David R. Alford, E. Landon Alford, R. M. Ballenger, Kenneth R. Black, Stayton M. Bonner, Jr., David J. Burks, Billy Crawford, Sheila Gresham, James M. Kangerga, J. Mark Mann, Milton S. McGee, Jr., Charles Richardson, Nelwyn Richardson, Jeff Scribner, Rebecca G. Tanner, Tony Wooster and William E. Wylie in connection with the merger (the “merger”) of merger subsidiary with and into the Company, with the Company being the surviving corporation to the merger pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 23, 2003 (the “merger agreement”), between the Company and merger subsidiary. A copy of the merger agreement is attached as Appendix A to the proxy statement that was previously filed as Exhibit (a)(i) to Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13E-3. This final Amendment is being filed pursuant to Rule 13e-3(d)(3) as a final amendment to the Schedule 13E-3 to report the results of the transaction contemplated by the merger agreement.
On Thursday, August 14, 2003, at a special meeting of the shareholders of the Company, the shareholders approved and adopted the merger agreement and the merger contemplated thereby. The Company and merger subsidiary subsequently filed Articles of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Texas and the merger became effective at 5:00 pm, Central Time, on August 14, 2003 (“Effective Time”). Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, each share of the Company’s common stock, par value $5.00 per share (“Company stock”), held of record by a shareholder who owned, as of the Effective Time, fewer than 500 shares of Company stock, was converted into the right to receive $32.00 in cash from the Company. The Company has arranged with Citizens National Bank, Henderson, Texas, as exchange agent, for letters of transmittal and other appropriate documents to be mailed promptly to all such shareholders. As a result of the merger, there are now fewer than 300 holders of record of Company stock.
The Company issued a press release on August 15, 2003 announcing the consummation of the merger. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the Form 8-K filed by the Company on August 15, 2003.
