Item 8.01 Other Events.
On April 21, 2011, the Board of Directors of Doral Financial Corporation (Doral Financial)
adopted a resolution determining that the annual meeting of shareholders of Doral Financial will be
held on Tuesday, June 28, 2011 at The New York Palace, Henry Room, 455 Madison Avenue, New York,
New York beginning at 7:30 a.m. The record date for the annual meeting will be May 6, 2011.
Doral Financial anticipates that the Notice of Meeting and Proxy Statement, the accompanying
form of proxy and Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2010 will be mailed to
shareholders on or about May 12, 2011.
As disclosed in the proxy statement for the Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on May 12,
2010, Doral Financials bylaws require a shareholder wishing to make a nomination or bring any
other matter before an annual meeting of shareholders to notify our Corporate Secretary in writing,
which notice (containing certain information specified in the bylaws about the shareholder and the
proposed action) shall be received by our Corporate Secretary not less than 90 or more than 180
days in advance of the first anniversary date of the preceding years annual meeting. However,
since the annual meeting of shareholders for 2011 was called on a date that is not within 30 days
before or after the anniversary date of last years annual meeting of shareholders, notice by a
shareholder in order to be timely must be received not later than the close of business on the
fifteenth day following the date of filing of this Current Report on
Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission (which constitutes
public disclosure by Doral Financial of the date of the annual meeting of shareholders).
