In aggregate, the PL Capital Group owns 1,167,241 shares of Common Stock of the Company acquired at an aggregate cost of $7,794,811.
 
From time to time, various members of the PL Capital Group may purchase Common Stock on margin provided by BNP Paribas Prime Brokerage Inc. (“BNP Paribas”), Charles Schwab & Co. Inc. (“Schwab”) or Comerica Securities (“Comerica”), on such firm’s usual terms and conditions.  All or part of the shares of Common Stock owned by members of the PL Capital Group may from time to time be pledged with one or more banking institutions or brokerage firms as collateral for loans made by such entities to members of the PL Capital Group.  Such loans, if any, generally bear interest at a rate based upon the federal funds rate plus a margin.  Such indebtedness, if any, may be refinanced with other banks or broker-dealers.  As of the date of this filing, no members of the PL Capital Group have margin from BNP Paribas, Schwab or Comerica, or other loans outstanding secured by Common Stock.
 
The amount of funds expended by Financial Edge Fund to acquire the 636,425 shares of Common Stock it holds in its name is $4,192,934.  Such funds were provided from Financial Edge Fund’s available capital and from time to time by margin loans provided by BNP Paribas.

Item 4.                                Purpose of Transaction

This is the PL Capital Group’s initial Schedule 13D filing.  In the aggregate, the PL Capital Group owns 5.5% of the Company’s Common Stock, based upon the Company’s aggregate outstanding shares as of November 5, 2012.  PL Capital Group acquired the Common Stock because it believes the Common Stock is undervalued.  PL Capital’s intent is to monitor the performance of the Company and the actions of the Company’s management and board, and where needed, to assert PL Capital Group’s stockholder rights.

Unless otherwise noted in this amended Schedule 13D, no member of the PL Capital Group has any plans or proposals, which relate to, or would result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (b) through (j), inclusive of Item (4) of Schedule 13D.  Such individuals may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their positions and formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto.  Members of the PL Capital Group may make further purchases of shares of Common Stock, although the PL Capital Group has no present intention of increasing PL Capital Group’s aggregate holdings above 9.999% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock.  Members of the PL Capital Group may dispose of any or all the shares of Common Stock held by them.
 
Item 5.                                Interest in Securities of the Company

The percentages used in this amended Schedule 13D are calculated based upon the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, 21,072,966, reported as the number of outstanding shares as of November 5, 2012, in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on November 18, 2012.
