<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Securities Purchase Agreement</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
May&nbsp;25, 2010, Hanmi Financial Corporation (the &#147;<U>Company</U>&#148;) entered into a securities
purchase agreement (the &#147;<U>Securities Purchase Agreement</U>&#148;) with Woori Finance Holdings Co.
Ltd. (&#147;<U>Investor</U>&#148;), pursuant to which Investor has
agreed to purchase, subject to certain conditions,
for $210&nbsp;million in cash, newly issued shares of common
stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the &#147;<U>Common Stock</U>&#148;), at a purchase price
of $1.20 per share (the &#147;<U>Transaction</U>&#148;). Upon
consummation of the transactions contemplated by the
Securities Purchase Agreement (the &#147;<U>Closing</U>&#148;), the Company will issue
to Investor 175,000,000 shares of Common Stock. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase
Agreement Investor has the option to purchase an additional
25,000,000 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $1.20 per share.
Investor&#146;s aggregate investment in the Company will not exceed
$240,000,000. Following the Transaction and the offering described below, it is
anticipated that Investor will own at least a majority of the Company&#146;s outstanding Common Stock.
The Closing is subject to various closing conditions, including, among others, the receipt of
certain required governmental and regulatory approvals, including the approval of the Federal
Reserve Board, the California Department of Financial Institutions and the Korean Financial
Services Commission, and the Company&#146;s receipt of approval from its stockholders for an amendment
of the Company&#146;s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of
authorized shares of Common Stock to 500,000,000 and the issuance of Common Stock to Investor for
purposes of NASDAQ Marketplace Rule&nbsp;5635 (the &#147;<U>Stockholder Proposals</U>&#148;). The Company intends
to contribute a substantial amount of the net proceeds from the Transaction as new capital into its
wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Hanmi Bank.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Securities Purchase Agreement contains a covenant of the Company to conduct its business,
and to ensure that each of its subsidiaries conducts their businesses, in the ordinary course until
the Transaction is completed and also contains restrictive covenants of the Company not to, and not
to permit any of its subsidiaries to take certain actions during such
period. In addition, subject to the Board of Directors fiduciary
duties to the Company&#146;s stockholders, the
Company has agreed not to solicit, initiate or encourage the submission of, enter into any
agreement or understanding with respect to, participate in any discussions or negotiations
regarding, furnish to any person or entity any information for the purpose of facilitating the
making of, or take any other action to facilitate any inquiries or the making of any proposal that
constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to any (i)&nbsp;acquisition or purchase by any
person, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the Common Stock, or any tender offer (including
a self-tender) or exchange offer that, if consummated, would result in any person beneficially
owning 10% or more of the Common Stock, (ii)&nbsp;any direct or indirect merger, acquisition,
amalgamation, consolidation, share exchange, business combination, joint venture or other similar
transaction involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries, which results in the stockholders of
the Company immediately preceding such transaction owning less than 51% of any series of the issued
and outstanding voting or equity securities of the Company after the consummation of such
transaction, (iii)&nbsp;any sale, lease, exchange, transfer, license (other than licenses in the
ordinary course of business), acquisition or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets
of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole (measured by the lesser of book or fair
market value thereof), (iv)&nbsp;any liquidation, dissolution, recapitalization, extraordinary dividend
or other significant corporate reorganization of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or (v)&nbsp;any
issuance by the Company, other than the sale of the Common Stock to Investor, which involves the
purchase and sale by any person, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the Common Stock (an
&#147;<U>Acquisition Proposal</U>&#148;).
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Further, the Company cannot (a)&nbsp;fail to make, withdraw, amend or modify, or publicly propose
to withhold, withdraw, amend or modify, in a manner adverse to Investor, the Board of Directors of
the Company&#146;s recommendation to the stockholders to approve the Transaction (the &#147;<U>Board
Recommendation</U>&#148;), (b)&nbsp;approve, endorse, adopt or recommend, or publicly propose to approve,
endorse, adopt or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal, (c)&nbsp;make any public statement inconsistent
with the Board Recommendation, or (d)&nbsp;resolve or agree to take any of the foregoing actions (each,
an &#147;<U>Adverse Recommendation Change</U>&#148;).
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to
indemnify Investor and its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, stockholders,
members, employees and agents, and any other person with a functionally equivalent role of a person
holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title, harmless from any and
all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and

the Company shall be comprised of seven directors and, subject to the requisite approval or
non-objection of the applicable regulatory authorities and compliance with applicable law, Investor
will have the right to nominate five directors to the Board of Directors of the Company.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, as a controlling stockholder Investor will be able to, amongst other
things, elect all of the members of our Board of Directors.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Securities Purchase Agreement contains certain termination rights for the Company and
Investor, as the case may be, which may be triggered (a)&nbsp;upon mutual agreement of the Company and
Investor, (b)&nbsp;if the conditions precedent to such party&#146;s obligations to close specified in the
Securities Purchase Agreement have not been met or waived by the Outside Date (defined below), (c)

governmental entity of competent jurisdiction shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or

writ, assessment or arbitration award, which is in effect and which prohibits or makes illegal the
consummation of the Transaction or materially alters the terms of the Securities Purchase
Agreement.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Securities Purchase Agreement further provides that, upon termination of the Securities
Purchase Agreement pursuant to (iii), (iv)&nbsp;or (vi)&nbsp;above and, in the case of (iii)&nbsp;and (vi)&nbsp;above
the Company enters into an agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal within twelve months
from the date of such termination, the Company may be required to pay to Investor a termination fee

the mutual agreement of the parties, up to sixty days in the event the necessary regulatory or

Agreement have been included to provide investors and security holders with information regarding
the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement. It is not intended to provide any other factual
information about the Company or its subsidiaries and affiliates. The Securities Purchase
Agreement contains representations and warranties of the Company, on the one hand, and Investor, on

that the parties have exchanged in connection with signing the Securities Purchase Agreement. The
