NOTIFICATION OF THE REMOVAL FROM LISTING AND REGISTRATION OF THE STATED SECURITIES New York Stock Exchange LLC (the 'Exchange' or the 'NYSE') hereby notifies the SEC of its intention to remove the entire class of the following Securities: Irwin Financial Corporation (the 'Company') Common Stock 8.70% Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities (collectively, the 'Securities') from listing and registration on the Exchange at the opening of business on October 16, 2009, pursuant to the provisions of Rule 12d2-2(b), because, in the opinion of the Exchange, the Securities are no longer suitable for continued listing and trading on the Exchange. The Exchange's action is being taken in view of the fact that on September 18, 2009, the Indiana Department of Financial Institutions closed the company?s state chartered bank subsidiary Irwin Union Bank and Trust Company (?IUBT?) and the Office of Thrift Supervision closed the company?s federal savings bank, Irwin Union Bank, F.S.B. (?IUBFSB?). The Federal Depository Insurance Corporation (the ?FDIC?) was appointed as receiver of both IUBT and IUBFSB (the ?Banks?). Subsequent to the closing of the Banks, First Financial Bank, National Association, located in Hamilton, Ohio, assumed all of the deposits and essentially all of the assets of the Banks in a transaction facilitated by the FDIC. 1. The Exchange's Listed Company Manual, Section 802.01D states, in part, that the Exchange is not limited by the criteria set forth in that section. Rather, it may make an appraisal of, and determine on an individual basis, the suitability for continued listing of an issue in the light of all pertinent facts whenever it deems such action appropriate, even though a security meets or fails to meet any enumerated criteria. Other factors which may lead to a company?s delisting include: Reduction in Operating Assets and/or Scope of Operations the operating assets have been or are to be substantially reduced such as by sale, lease, spin off, distribution, discontinuance, abandonment, destruction, condemnation, seizure or expropriation, or the company has ceased to be an operating company or discontinued a substantial portion of its operations or business for any reason whatsoever and whether or not any of the foregoing results from action by the company, related parties or persons unrelated to the company. 2. The Exchange, on September 21, 2009, determined that the Securities of the Company should be suspended immediately, and directed the preparation and filing with the Commission of this application for the removal of the Securities from listing and registration on the Exchange. The Company was notified by letter on September 21, 2009. 3. Pursuant to the above authorization, a press release was immediately issued and an announcement was made on the 'ticker' of the Exchange immediately and at the close of the trading session on September 21, 2009 of the suspension of trading in the Securities. Similar information was included on the Exchange's website. 4. The Company had a right to appeal to the Committee for Review of the Board of Directors of NYSE Regulation the determination to delist the Securities, provided that it filed a written request for such a review with the Secretary of the Exchange within ten business days of receiving notice of delisting determination. On September 21, 2009, the Company stated in its Form 8-K that it does not intend to contest the suspension or delisting.
