Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 21, 2009, Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc. (the
Company
) delivered
a notice of termination of the stock purchase agreement, dated as of September 25, 2009, as amended
by amendment to stock purchase agreement, dated as of November 16, 2009 (collectively, the
Agreement
), with Royal Asian Bancshares, Inc. (
Buyer
). The Agreement related
to the purchase by Buyer of all of the common stock of Royal Asian Bank, a banking subsidiary of
the Company, owned by the Company. The Agreement required, among other things, Buyer to raise by
December 15, 2009 proceeds in a private placement transaction in an amount necessary to fund
payment of the purchase price. The Agreement also permitted the Company to terminate the Agreement
on or after December 16, 2009 if the Company did not receive evidence satisfactory to it that Buyer
had received such net proceeds in the Buyer private placement. The Company terminated the
Agreement under this provision by notice dated December 21, 2009. As a result of the Companys
termination of the Agreement, the $250,000 escrow amount previously deposited by Buyer, which was
to be credited toward payment of the purchase price, will be retained by the Company as liquidated
damages.
A copy of the Companys press release, dated December 21, 2009, relating to termination of the
Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
