REGULATORY MATTERS | NOTE 2 — REGULATORY MATTERS On November 2, 2009, the members of the Board of Directors of the Bank consented to the issuance of the Final Order (“Final Order”) with the California Department of Financial Institutions (the “DFI”). The Final Order contained a list of requirements ranging from a capital directive to developing a contingency funding plan. Following a full scope target examination of the Bank by the DFI which commenced in February 2012, and based on the improved condition of the Bank noted at the examination, on May 1, 2012, the Bank entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with the DFI. Concurrently with the entry into the MOU, the DFI issued an order terminating the Final Order. The MOU imposes substantially less requirements on the Bank, however, under the provisions of the MOU, the Bank is required to continue to maintain a ratio of tangible stockholders’ equity to total tangible assets of not less than 9.5 percent. On November 2, 2009, Hanmi Financial and the Bank entered into a Written Agreement (the “Written Agreement”) with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (the “FRB”). The Written Agreement contains a list of strict requirements ranging from a capital directive to developing a contingency funding plan. While Hanmi Financial has taken such actions as necessary to enable Hanmi Financial and the Bank to comply with the requirements of the Written Agreement and the MOU, there can be no assurance that compliance with the Written Agreement and the MOU will not have material and adverse effects on the operations and financial condition of Hanmi Financial and the Bank. Any material failure to comply with the provisions of the Written Agreement and the MOU could result in further enforcement actions by both the DFI and the FRB, or the placing of the Bank into conservatorship or receivership. Written Agreement and MOU Pursuant to the Written Agreement, the Board of Directors of the Bank prepared and submitted written plans to the FRB that addressed the following items: (i) strengthening board oversight of the management and operation of the Bank; (ii) strengthening credit risk management practices; (iii) improving credit administration policies and procedures; (iv) improving the Bank’s position with respect to problem assets; (v) maintaining adequate reserves for loan and lease losses; (vi) improving the capital position of the Bank and, of Hanmi Financial; and (vii) improving the Bank’s earnings through a strategic plan and a budget; (viii) improving the Bank’s liquidity position, funds management practices, and contingency funding plan. In addition, the Written Agreement place restrictions on the Bank’s lending to borrowers who have adversely classified loans with the Bank. The Written Agreement also requires the Bank to charge off or collect certain problem loans and review and revise its methodology for calculating allowance for loan and lease losses consistent with relevant supervisory guidance. Hanmi Financial and the Bank are also prohibited from paying dividends, without prior approval from the FRB. Hanmi Financial and the Bank are required to notify the FRB if their respective capital ratios fall below those set forth in the capital plan approved by the FRB. The MOU imposes substantially less requirements on the Bank than the Final Order. Pursuant to the MOU, the Bank is required to continue to (i) maintain strong board oversight, management and operation of the Bank, (ii) review and implement policies and procedures to address credit administration and credit risk management, (iii) maintain an acceptable methodology for calculating loan and lease losses, (iv) obtain the prior approval from the DFI prior to declaring and paying dividends, and (v) maintain a ratio of tangible stockholders’ equity to total tangible assets of not less than 9.5 percent. On November 18, 2011, we completed an underwritten public offering of our common stock by which we raised $77.1 million in net proceeds. As a result, we satisfied the requirement that the ratio of tangible stockholders’ equity to total tangible assets be not less than 9.5 percent, as of December 31, 2011. As of Mach 31, 2012, Hanmi Financial and the Bank had a ratio of tangible stockholders’ equity to total tangible assets ratio of 10.55 percent and 12.71 percent, respectively. Based on submissions to and consultations with the DFI and the FRB, we believe that the Bank has taken the required corrective action and has complied with substantially all of the requirements of the Written Agreement and the MOU. Risk-Based Capital Federal bank regulatory agencies require a minimum ratio of qualifying total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.0 percent and a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.0 percent. In addition to the risk-based guidelines, federal bank regulatory agencies require banking organizations to maintain a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to average total assets, referred to as the leverage ratio, of 4.0 percent. For a bank rated in the highest of the five categories used by federal bank regulatory agencies to rate banks, the minimum leverage ratio is 3.0 percent. In addition to these uniform risk-based capital guidelines that apply across the industry, federal bank regulatory agencies have the discretion to set individual minimum capital requirements for specific institutions at rates significantly above the minimum guidelines and ratios. The capital ratios of Hanmi Financial and the Bank were as follows as of March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively:
|  | Actual |  |  | Minimum Regulatory Requirement |  |  | Minimum to Be Categorized as “Well Capitalized” |
|  | Amount |  |  | Ratio |  |  | Amount |  |  | Ratio |  |  | Amount |  |  | Ratio |
