ITEM 1.01       ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT
                ------------------------------------------
ITEM 3.02       NREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
                --------------------------------------

         On October 9, 2009, PVF Capital Corp. (the "Company") entered into an
Exchange Agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") with Marty E. Adams, Umberto P.
Fedeli, Robert J. King, Jr., James E. Pastore, John S. Loeber, Lee Burdman,
Jonathan A. Levy, Richard R. Hollington, Jr. and Richard R. Hollington, III
(collectively, the "Investors"). Marty E. Adams is a director of the Company's
wholly owned subsidiary, Park View Federal Savings Bank (the "Bank"), and served
as the Interim Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank until
September 10, 2009. Robert J. King, Jr., is the President and Chief Executive
Officer and a director of the Company and the Bank. Umberto P. Fedeli is a
director of the Company and the Bank.

         The Investors hold trust preferred securities with an aggregate
liquidation amount of $10.0 million issued by PVF Capital Trust II (the
"Trust"). In July 2006, the Company formed the Trust as a special purpose entity
for the sole purpose of issuing $10.0 million of trust preferred securities (the
"Capital Securities"). The Company issued subordinated deferrable interest
debentures (the "Subordinated Debentures") to the Trust in exchange for the
proceeds of the offering of the trust preferred securities. The trust preferred
securities carry a fixed rate of 7.462% until September 15, 2011 and thereafter
a variable interest rate that adjusts to the three month LIBOR rate plus 175
basis points. The Subordinated Debentures are the sole asset of the Trust.

         The Exchange Agreement provides that on the closing date, the Investors
will exchange the $10.0 million of trust preferred securities for aggregate
consideration consisting of (i) $400,000 in cash, (ii) shares of common stock
valued at $600,000 based on the average daily closing price of the common stock
over the 20 trading days prior to the closing of the transaction (the "20-Day
Average Closing Price") and (iii) warrants to purchase 769,608 shares of common
stock plus a number of shares of common stock equal to 9.9% of the shares to be
issued to the investors as described in clause (ii) above. In addition, the
Investors will receive additional warrants that become exercisable in the event
PVF Capital Corp. completes one or more public or private offerings of its
common stock within a year. The additional warrants will give the Investors the
right to acquire additional shares of common stock so that the total number of
shares they could acquire under all warrants would entitle them to purchase an
aggregate of 4.9% of the Company's common stock outstanding following the
offering or offerings completed during that one-year period. The exercise price
for the warrants is the lesser of (i) $4.00 per share, (ii) the 20-Day Average
Closing Price, or (iii) if during the term of the warrants the Company sells
shares of common stock in a public or private offering, the price at which
shares are sold in that offering. The Warrants are exercisable for five years
following the closing.

         Upon consummation of the transaction, the Company anticipates that the
Capital Securities, common securities issued by the Trust and the Subordinated
Debentures will be cancelled and will no longer be outstanding.

         The issuance of Company common stock pursuant to the Exchange Agreement
will be made by the Company pursuant to an exemption from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, contained in Section
4(2) of such Act and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder.

         The Company has agreed to file a registration statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission within 60 days of the closing date with
respect to the Initial Shares and the Warrants and within 60 days of the
exercise of any Warrant with respect to the resale of Common Stock issued upon
the exercise of a Warrant.

         Consummation of the Exchange is subject to the approval of the Exchange
by the shareholders of the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of The
Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. The Company intends to submit a proposal for the
approval of the Exchange to its shareholders at the Company's upcoming 2009
annual meeting of stockholders. The directors of the Company have executed
voting agreements agreeing to vote shares of Common Stock they hold in favor of
the Exchange. Consummation of the Exchange also is subject to other customary
closing conditions.

         PVF Capital Corp. will file a preliminary proxy statement concerning
the exchange with the Securities and Exchange Commission and expects to file and
mail a definitive proxy statement to shareholders as soon as practicable.
Shareholders of PVF Capital Corp. are urged to read the proxy statement when it
is available because it will contain important information. Investors are able
to obtain all documents filed with the SEC by PVF Capital Corp. free of charge
at the SEC's website, www.sec.gov. In addition, documents filed with the SEC by
PVF Capital Corp. may be read and copied at the SEC's public reference room at
100 F Street, N.E., Washington, DC. The directors, executive officers, and
certain other members of management and employees of PVF Capital Corp. are
expected to be participants in the solicitation of proxies in favor of the
Exchange from the shareholders of PVF Capital Corp. Information about the
directors and executive officers of PVF Capital Corp. will be included in the
proxy statement to be filed with the SEC.

         A copy of the Company's press release is attached to this Report as
Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
