Upon consummation of the Conversion, the Registrant will own all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Bank’s common stock. As part of the Conversion, shares of the Registrant’s common stock will be issued and sold in an offering to certain depositors and borrowers of the Bank and others. Shares will also be issued in exchange for the currently issued and outstanding shares of Charter Financial Corporation, a federal corporation (the current mid-tier holding company for the Bank, “Charter Financial”) held by persons other than First Charter, MHC.  The Registrant filed a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No.333-185482) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which was declared effective by the SEC on February 11, 2013.
