Item 2.01
|
Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
|
On March 16, 2011, Cheviot Financial Corp. (“Cheviot Financial”), and its wholly owned subsidiary, Cheviot Savings Bank, completed their acquisition of First Franklin Corporation (“First Franklin”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, The Franklin Savings and Loan Company (“Franklin Savings”). The acquisition was consummated in accordance with an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of October 12, 2010, by and among Cheviot Financial Corp., Cheviot Savings Bank, Cheviot Merger Subsidiary, Inc., First Franklin and Franklin Savings.
At the effective time of the acquisition, each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of First Franklin (other than shares owned by First Franklin, Cheviot Financial, Cheviot Savings Bank and Merger Subsidiary) was converted into the right to receive $14.50 in cash. Each First Franklin stock option outstanding at the time of the closing was converted into an amount of cash equal to the positive difference, if any, between $14.50 and the exercise price of such stock option. The aggregate consideration to be paid in the acquisition (including the cancellation of stock options) consists of approximately $24.6 million in cash.
The preceding is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement and a press release, which are attached as Exhibits 2.1 and 99.1 to this Current Report, respectively, and are incorporated by reference herein.
