Regulatory Enforcement Action	2. REGULATORY ENFORCEMENT ACTION United Community is a unitary thrift holding company regulated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (FRB). On August 8, 2008, the board of directors of United Community approved a Stipulation and Consent to the Issuance of an Order with the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) (the Holding Company Order). Simultaneously, the board of directors of Home Savings approved a Stipulation and Consent to the Issuance of an Order to Cease and Desist (the Bank Order) with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and the Ohio Division of Financial Institutions (the Ohio Division), which was terminated as of March 30, 2012 and replaced with a Consent Order (the Consent Order). The Consent Order was terminated on January 31, 2013. On January 31, 2013, Home Savings consented to a Memorandum of Understanding (the Bank MOU), as described below. Although United Community and Home Savings agreed to the issuance of the Holding Company Order, the Bank Order, the Consent Order and the Bank MOU, as the case may be, neither has admitted or denied any allegations of unsafe or unsound banking practices, or any legal or regulatory violations. No monetary penalties were assessed by the OTS, the FDIC or the Ohio Division when these orders were issued or since that time. The Holding Company Order required United Community to obtain FRB approval prior to: (i) incurring or increasing its debt position; (ii) repurchasing any United Community stock; or (iii) paying any dividends. The Holding Company Order also required United Community to develop a debt reduction plan and submit the plan to the OTS for approval. The Holding Company Order was amended November 5, 2010. The amendment removed the requirement in the original Holding Company Order to provide the OTS with a debt reduction plan and added a requirement to provide the OTS with a capital plan. The capital plan was consistent with and incorporated into the strategic planning process that Home Savings undertook when the Bank Order was issued. The capital plan was submitted to the OTS in December 2010. A revised capital plan was submitted to the FRB, FDIC and Ohio Division in December 2011 and a further revised capital plan was submitted in December 2012. The Holding Company Order was terminated on July 2, 2013. On July 9, 2013, United Community entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (the Holding Company MOU) with the FRB, under which we will not pay dividends, repurchase shares, or take on debt without the FRB’s prior approval. The Consent Order required Home Savings, within specified timeframes, to take or refrain from certain actions, including that it had to: (i) continue to retain qualified management; (ii) seek regulatory approval prior to adding any individuals to the board of directors or employing any individual as a senior executive officer of Home Savings; (iii) not extend additional credit to classified borrowers; (iv) revise its plan to reduce its classified assets, and, within six months, reduce total adversely classified assets to 75% of the level of classified assets as of May 31, 2011 (i.e., to $219.0 million by September 30, 2012) and, within twelve months, to 50% of the level of classified assets as of May 31, 2011 (i.e., to $146.0 million by March 31, 2013); (v) establish a comprehensive policy and methodology for determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses (ALLL); (vi) adopt plans to reduce its classified assets and delinquent loans; (vii) adopt a plan to reduce certain loan concentrations; (viii) amend its strategic plan and budget and profit plan; (ix) increase its Tier 1 Leverage Capital Ratio to 9.0% and its Total Risk Based Capital Ratio to 12.0% by June 30, 2012, and revise its capital plan to achieve such capital levels; and (x) seek regulatory approval prior to declaring or paying any cash dividend. On January 31, 2013, the Consent Order was terminated and Home Savings entered into a MOU with the FDIC and Ohio Division. The MOU requires Home Savings to submit certain plans and reports to the FDIC and the Ohio Division, to seek the FDIC’s and Ohio Division’s prior consent before issuing any dividends to United Community, and to maintain its Tier 1 Leverage Capital Ratio at 8.50% and its Total Risk Based Capital Ratio at 12.0%. Management believes Home Savings is in compliance with the capital requirements of the MOU. As of June 30, 2013, Home Savings Tier 1 Leverage Capital Ratio was 10.03% and its Total Risk Based Capital Ratio was 19.42%. As of December 31, 2012, the FDIC categorized Home Savings as adequately capitalized pursuant to the Bank Order and the Consent Order, respectively. However, because the Consent Order was terminated on January 31, 2013, Home Savings is now considered well capitalized. A failure to comply with the provisions of the Bank MOU or the Holding Company MOU could result in additional enforcement actions by the FDIC, Ohio Division or the FRB. The regulators, at their discretion, have the ability to place additional requirements on both Home Savings and United Community.

Although United Community and Home Savings agreed to the issuance of the Holding Company Order, the Bank Order, the Consent Order and the Bank MOU, as the case may be, neither has admitted or denied any allegations of unsafe or unsound banking practices, or any legal or regulatory violations. No monetary penalties were assessed by the OTS, the FDIC or the Ohio Division when these orders were issued or since that time.

The Holding Company Order required United Community to obtain FRB approval prior to: (i) incurring or increasing its debt position; (ii) repurchasing any United Community stock; or (iii) paying any dividends. The Holding Company Order also required United Community to develop a debt reduction plan and submit the plan to the OTS for approval. The Holding Company Order was amended November 5, 2010.

The capital plan was submitted to the OTS in December 2010. A revised capital plan was submitted to the FRB, FDIC and Ohio Division in December 2011 and a further revised capital plan was submitted in December 2012. The Holding Company Order was terminated on July 2, 2013.

The Consent Order required Home Savings, within specified timeframes, to take or refrain from certain actions, including that it had to: (i) continue to retain qualified management; (ii) seek regulatory approval prior to adding any individuals to the board of directors or employing any individual as a senior executive officer of Home Savings; (iii) not extend additional credit to classified borrowers; (iv) revise its plan to reduce its classified assets, and, within six months, reduce total adversely classified assets to 75% of the level of classified assets as of May 31, 2011 (i.e., to $219.0 million by September 30, 2012) and, within twelve months, to 50% of the level of classified assets as of May 31, 2011 (i.e., to $146.0 million by March 31, 2013); (v) establish a comprehensive policy and methodology for determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses (ALLL); (vi) adopt plans to reduce its classified assets and delinquent loans; (vii) adopt a plan to reduce certain loan concentrations; (viii) amend its strategic plan and budget and profit plan; (ix) increase its Tier 1 Leverage Capital Ratio to 9.0% and its Total Risk Based Capital Ratio to 12.0% by June 30, 2012, and revise its capital plan to achieve such capital levels; and (x) seek regulatory approval prior to declaring or paying any cash dividend.

On January 31, 2013, the Consent Order was terminated and Home Savings entered into a MOU with the FDIC and Ohio Division. The MOU requires Home Savings to submit certain plans and reports to the FDIC and the Ohio Division, to seek the FDIC’s and Ohio Division’s prior consent before issuing any dividends to United Community, and to maintain its Tier 1 Leverage Capital Ratio at 8.50% and its Total Risk Based Capital Ratio at 12.0%.
