Section 8: Item 8.01. Other Events

In connection with Center Bank’s litigation with Korea Export Insurance Corporation, the status of which has been most recently disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, there had been an issue as to the extent of coverage provided by BancInsure, one of the Bank’s insurance companies. On June 22, 2006 the Bank settled its claims with BancInsure with respect to BancInsure’s obligations related to the KEIC litigation. Under the terms of the settlement, BancInsure has agreed to pay the Bank $3,750,000 not later than June 26, 2006. This amount is in addition to the amounts that it has already paid to the Bank. In addition, BancInsure has waived its rights of subrogation with respect to the KEIC litigation.
