ANNOUNCES RESULTS OF STOCK OFFERING, SHAREHOLDER VOTE
AND DEPOSITOR VOTE
Georgetown, Massachusetts, June 25, 2012 Georgetown Bancorp, Inc. (OTCBB: GTWN), announced today that its shareholders and the depositors of Georgetown Savings Bank (the Bank) have each approved the plan of conversion and reorganization pursuant to which Georgetown Bancorp, MHC will convert to a stock holding company form of organization. Georgetown Bancorp, Inc. (New Georgetown), the proposed stock holding company for the Bank also announced the results of its offering of shares of common stock in connection with the conversion. New Georgetown expects to sell 1,100,000 shares of common stock at $10.00 per share, for gross offering proceeds of $11.0 million, in its stock offering. Orders for a total of 273,471 shares of common stock have been accepted in the syndicated community offering, for which Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc. acted as sole book-running manager. New Georgetown received orders for 826,529 shares of common stock in the subscription and community offerings, for which Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc. acted as selling agent. All orders properly executed in the subscription and community offerings will be filled in whole, including the order by the Banks employee stock ownership plan. New Georgetowns new CUSIP number is 372591 107.
Concurrent with the completion of the offering, shares of Georgetown Bancorp, Inc.s (Georgetown-Federal) common stock owned by the public will be exchanged for shares of New Georgetowns common stock so that Georgetown-Federals existing shareholders will own approximately the same percentage of New Georgetowns common stock as they owned of Georgetown-Federals common stock immediately prior to the conversion. Shareholders of Georgetown-Federal will receive 0.72014 shares of New Georgetowns common stock for each share of Georgetown-Federal common stock they owned immediately prior to completion of the transaction. Cash in lieu of fractional shares will be paid based on the offering price of $10.00 per share. As a result of the offering and the exchange of shares, New Georgetown will have approximately 1,940,298 shares outstanding after giving effect to the transaction.
The completion of the conversion and offering is subject to, among other things, the approval of the Plan of Conversion and Reorganization by the corporators of Georgetown Bancorp, MHC at a special meeting scheduled to occur on July 9, 2012 and the receipt of final regulatory approval.
The transaction is scheduled to close on July 11, 2012, at which time Georgetown Bancorp, MHC and Georgetown-Federal will cease to exist and New Georgetown will become the fully public stock holding company of the Bank. The shares of common stock of Georgetown-Federal will cease trading under the trading symbol GTWN on the OTC Bulletin Board at the close of the market on July 11, 2012. The shares of common stock sold in the offering and issued in the exchange are expected to begin trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on July 12, 2012 under the trading symbol GTWND for a period of 20 trading days and will thereafter trade as GTWN.
Stock certificates for shares purchased in the subscription, community and syndicated community offerings are expected to be mailed to subscribers on or about July 11, 2012. Current shareholders of Georgetown-Federal that hold their shares in street name or in book-entry form will have shares of New Georgetown deposited directly to their accounts. Shareholders of Georgetown-Federal holding shares in certificated form will be mailed a letter of transmittal on or about July 13, 2012 and receive their shares of Company common stock and cash in lieu of fractional shares after returning their stock certificates and a properly completed letter of transmittal to the Companys transfer agent.
