                                  INTRODUCTION


         This Amendment No. 3 (the "Amendment") amends and supplements the Rule
13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 (the "Schedule 13E-3") filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 30, 2003 and amended on
December 23, 2003 and January 15, 2004 by HFB Financial Corporation, a Tennessee
corporation and registered bank holding company (the "Company"), and HFB Merger
Corp., a newly-formed, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the "merger
subsidiary"), in connection with the proposed 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 October 28, 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. 2 to
Schedule 13E-3. This final Amendment is being filed pursuant to Rule 13e-3(d)(3)
as the final Amendment to Schedule 13E-3 to report the results of the
transaction contemplated by the merger agreement.






         On Tuesday, February 24, 2004, 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 Tennessee
and the merger became effective at 5:00 pm, Eastern Time, on February 27, 2004
("Effective Time").  Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, each share
of the Company's common stock, par value $1.00 per share ("Company stock"), held
by a shareholder who owned, as of the Effective Time, fewer than 250 shares of
Company stock, was converted into the right to receive $22.75 in cash from the
Company.  The Company has arranged with Registrar & Transfer Company, Roselle,
New Jersey, the Company's transfer 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 February 27, 2004 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 March 2, 2004.
