(now Hope Bancorp) was completed. On the same day BBCN changed its name to Hope Bancorp, Inc. and the subsidiary BBCN Bank was changed to Bank of Hope. The Company merged with Wilshire to create the only super regional Korean-American Bank in the United States and to expand the Company’s branch network nationwide. Pursuant to the merger agreement, holders of Wilshire common stock received 0.7034 of a share of common stock of HOPE for each share of Wilshire common stock held immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, rounded to the nearest whole share, plus cash in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares. Outstanding Wilshire stock options and restricted stock awards were converted into stock options with respect to shares of HOPE common stock or restricted shares of HOPE common stock, respectively, with appropriate adjustments to reflect the exchange ratio. The merger was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of Wilshire were recorded at their respective fair values and represents management’s estimates based on available information.
