Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
Southwest Bancorp, Inc., and its banking subsidiary, Stillwater National Bank and Trust
Company, are considering a bulk sale of loans and real estate with a carrying value of
approximately $300 million. The loans and assets which may be sold are primarily nonperforming
assets and potential problem loans. The process includes submission of preliminary bids by
potential buyers, due November 1, 2011, followed by submission of binding bids later this year.
Southwest and its subsidiaries are not bound to complete such a sale, and may choose not to seek
binding bids, or to reject all binding bids based upon the terms of the bids received. Overall,
bids are expected to reflect discounts from current asset carrying values. The amount actually sold
may be substantially less than $300 million.
