Item 8.01 - Other Events

On June 29, 2005, Temecula Valley Bank, N.A., the principal subsidiary of
Temecula Valley Bancorp Inc. converted from a national bank charter to a state
member banking charter and, in connection with the conversion, changed it name
to Temecula Valley Bank ("Bank"). The Bank's principal state regulator, the
California Department of Financial Institutions, approved the Bank's application
for conversion on June 29, 2005, shortly after the Bank's principal federal
regulator, the Federal Reserve Board, had approved the Bank's application for
federal reserve membership as a state member bank.

Other than the combined costs savings as a result of reduced examination fees,
the increased ability to satisfy internally the customers requests' for larger
loans and the increased revenue the Bank should experience on portions of loans
it is able to retain due to the increased lending limits, it is not anticipated
that the conversion or Federal Reserve membership as a state chartered bank will
materially affect the operations or financial results of the Bank or Temecula
Valley Bancorp Inc.
