Dow Jones Description

First Regional Bancorp (the "Company") maintains its principal executive offices at 1801 Century Park East, Los Angeles, California 90067. The Company was incorporated in California as Great American Bancorp on February 18, 1981 for the purpose of becoming a bank holding company and acquiring all of the outstanding common stock of First Regional Bank (the "Bank"), formerly Great American Bank, a state-chartered bank headquartered in Los Angeles (Century City), California. The reorganization of the Bank was accomplished on March 8, 1982, under the terms of a Plan of Reorganization and Merger Agreement dated October 15, 1981, providing for the merger of a Company subsidiary with the Bank, with the Bank being the surviving entity in the merger. As a result of the Bank's reorganization, the Bank's outstanding shares were exchanged on a one-for-one basis for shares of the Company's Common Stock, and the Company became the sole shareholder of the Bank. Prior to acquiring the Bank, the Company did not conduct any ongoing business activities. The Company's principal asset is the stock of the Bank and the Company's primary function is to coordinate the general policies and activities of the Bank, as well as to consider from time to time, other legally available investment opportunities. Both the Company and the Bank changed their names from Great American to First Regional in 1987 as part of an agreement with another financial institution.
