Item 8.01. Other Events.
     On November 15, 2010, Hanmi Financial Corporation (the “Company”) received a waiver from Woori Finance Holdings Co. Ltd. (“Woori”) with respect to the exclusivity provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated May 25, 2010, by and between the Company and Woori, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Securities Purchase Agreement, dated September 30, 2010 (as amended, the “Purchase Agreement”). This waiver allows Hanmi to pursue, if needed, further fundraising efforts and/or alternative proposals to acquire control of the Company. Woori waived its rights and the Company’s obligations under Section 5.1 (Non-Solicitation), Section 5.4 (Restriction on Sale and Purchase) and Section 7.2 (Termination Fee) of the Purchase Agreement. Although the Outside Date in the Agreement is November 15, 2010, the agreement remains effective and the parties are currently negotiating the terms of a potential amendment while Woori is seeking regulatory approvals. However, no assurances can be given as to whether the parties will reach an agreement on such an amendment or what the terms of such an amendment may be, or that the necessary regulatory approvals will be granted or, if granted, within what time frame or with which conditions such regulatory approvals will be granted.
     This Current Report on Form 8-K may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and, as such, may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Any forward-looking statements relate to the Company’s current expectations and are subject to the limitations and qualifications set forth in this Current Report on Form 8-K, as well as in the Company’s other documents filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including, without limitation, that actual events and/or results may differ materially from those projected in such forward-looking statements.
