Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement
On September 16, 2010,
the Boards of Directors of Rockville Financial, Inc. (the Company),
Rockville Financial MHC, Inc. (the Mutual Holding Company), and Rockville Bank (the Bank)
adopted the Plan of Conversion and Reorganization of the Mutual Holding Company (the Plan)
pursuant to which the Mutual Holding Company will undertake a second-step conversion and cease to
exist. The Bank will reorganize from a two-tier mutual holding company structure to a stock holding
company structure. The Mutual Holding Company currently owns approximately 56.7% of the shares of
common stock of the Company.
Pursuant to the Plan, (i) the Bank will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Rockville
Financial New, Inc. (the New Holding Company), a Connecticut corporation recently formed by the
Company, (ii) the shares of common stock of the Company held by persons other than the Mutual
Holding Company (whose shares will be canceled) will be converted into shares of common stock of
the New Holding Company pursuant to an exchange ratio intended to preserve the percentage ownership
interests of such persons, and (iii) the New Holding Company will offer and sell shares of its
common stock representing the ownership interest of the Mutual Holding Company, including its
assets other than its shares in the Company, to eligible depositors of the Bank and certain other
persons in a subscription offering. The Plan is subject to regulatory approval as well as the
approval of the Mutual Holding Companys corporators and the Companys stockholders (including the
approval of a majority of the shares held by persons other than the Mutual Holding Company).
Shares not subscribed for in the subscription offering are expected to be available for sale
in a community offering to members of the local community and the general public, and if necessary
in a syndicated community offering. The number of shares to be sold in the conversion offering and
the exchange ratio for current stockholders of the Company are be based on an independent
appraisal.
The foregoing summary of the Plan is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by
reference to the complete text of such document, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Form 8-K and
which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
