As of January&#160;30, 2020, a total of 494,286 shares of the Company remained authorized for repurchase pursuant to the amended repurchase authorization through October&#160;31, 2020.</font></div><div style="text-indent:18pt;text-align:justify;margin-top:6pt;margin-bottom:6pt;"><font style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255, 0.0);color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;">The authorization permits shares to be repurchased in open market or negotiated transactions, and pursuant to any trading plan that may be adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The authorization will be utilized at management&#8217;s discretion, subject to price, volume and other internal limitations that will be established by the Company&#8217;s Board of Directors, and to the limitations set forth in Rule 10b-18 of the Securities and Exchange Commission and other applicable legal requirements.

The implementation of the authorization is contingent upon adequate liquidity to consummate the authorized repurchases at then current market prices, including the proceeds from the potential future declaration of dividends from the Company&#8217;s bank subsidiary.&#160; Share repurchases may be suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason, including market prices for the Company&#8217;s stock and other marker conditions, the cost of repurchasing shares, the availability of alternative investment opportunities, sufficient liquidity to consummate repurchases, and other factors deemed appropriate.  These factors, as well as internal restrictions on trading in the Company's shares during specific time periods, may also affect the timing and amount of share repurchases.</font></div><div style="text-indent:18pt;text-align:justify;margin-top:6pt;margin-bottom:6pt;"><font style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255, 0.0);color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;">BankFinancial Corporation is the holding company for BankFinancial, NA, a full-service, community-oriented bank providing financial services to individuals, families and businesses through 19 full-service banking offices, located in Cook, DuPage, Lake and Will Counties, Illinois.
