ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS
On September 30, 1999, Harvest Home Financial Corporation (the
"Registrant" or "HHFC") and Peoples Building Loan and Savings Company
("Peoples") entered into an agreement wherein HHFC will merge with and into
Peoples ("Acquisition"). In connection with the Acquisition, Peoples will
undertake to convert from a mutual to a stock institution ("Conversion") and
form a holding company. Under the terms of the Acquisition agreement, each share
of Harvest Home will be exchanged for a combination of $9.00 in cash plus
Peoples Common Stock with a market value of $9.00, based on the initial public
offering price of Peoples Common Stock. It is currently anticipated that the
number of Peoples Common Stock that will be exchanged for each share of HHFC
common stock is 0.9 shares assuming an initial public offering price of the
Peoples' Common Stock of $10.00 per share.
The consummation of the Acquisition is subject to the approval of the
shareholders of HHFC, consummation of the Merger, the Conversion of Peoples and
the receipt of all required regulatory approvals. It is anticipated that the
Merger and the Acquisition will be consummated simultaneously with the
completion of the Conversion. The transaction is anticipated to close in the
second quarter of 2000.
On October 1, 1999, a joint press release was issued by the HHFC and
Peoples announcing the Acquisition, Merger and Conversion. The press release is
attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
