Item 1.01  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On October 23, 2008, the Board of Directors of FirstFed Financial Corp. (the “Company”) amended and restated the Company’s stockholder rights agreement in the form of a Second Amended and Restated Rights Agreement, dated as of October 23, 2008 (the “Amended Rights Agreement”), between the Company and Registrar and Transfer Company, as rights agent (the “Rights Agent”).  The Amended Rights Agreement was originally adopted in the form of a Rights Agreement, dated as of November 2, 1988, and was subsequently amended and restated as an Amended and Restated Rights Agreement, dated as of June 25, 1998 (such agreements, together with the Amended Rights Agreement, are collectively referred to herein as the “Rights Agreement”).  As more fully described in and subject to the terms of the Rights Agreement and as summarized in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form 8-A/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 28, 2008 (the "Form 8-A/A"), the Rights Agreement generally gives holders of the Company’s common stock (other than an acquiring person) certain rights (each, a “Right”) to acquire additional shares of Company stock upon the occurrence of specified events.
 
The amendments included in the Amended Rights Agreement include: (i) extending the final expiration of the Rights issued under the Rights Agreement from November 15, 2008 to November 14, 2018; (ii) revising the purchase price of each Right from $200.00 to $100.00 per one one thousandth of a share of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock or other securities or property issued upon exercise of such Right; and (iii) adopting certain other clarifying changes.  On October 23, 2008, the Board of Directors also approved the appointment of the Rights Agent to act as the agent for the Company and the holders of the Rights under the Rights Agreement.
 
A copy of the Rights Agreement, which includes the form of Rights Certificate as an exhibit thereto, is incorporated by reference from the Form 8-A/A into Exhibit 4.1 and is incorporated herein by this reference.  A copy of the Rights Agreement is available free of charge from the Company.  The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Rights Agreement.
