Item 8.01 Other Events
On July 27, 2005, Foothill Independent Bancorp announced that its Board of
Directors had approved a 15% increase in its regular quarterly cash dividend to
$0.15 per share of common stock from $0.13 per share.
A copy of the Company's press release, announcing this increase, is
attached as Exhibit 99.1. Among other things, that press release references
risks and other factors, described in the Company's periodic reports filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission, that could affect the Company's future
financial performance and its ability to pay dividends in the future. As
described in those periodic reports, although there are no plans to reduce the
amount or terminate the payment of cash dividends, there can be no assurance
that the amount or frequency of cash dividends will not have to be reduced or
that cash dividends will not have to be suspended, in the future, as this will
depend on such factors as economic and market conditions, the Company's future
financial performance and financial condition and its needs for capital.
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
