2,100,000 Shares of Common Stock
BALA CYNWYD, Pa., Jan. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Allegiance Bank of North America
("Allegiance") announced that it has entered into an underwriting agreement
with Ryan Beck & Co., Inc. ("Ryan Beck") for the sale of 2,100,000 shares of
common stock. The offering was priced at $5.75 per share resulting in expected
net proceeds of approximately $11.0 million. The offering is expected to close
January 20, 2005. In conjunction with the offering, Allegiance common stock is
expected to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "ABPA".
Ryan Beck is the sole underwriter for the offering and was granted an option,
exercisable for a period of 30 days, to purchase an additional 315,000 shares
or 15% of the offering to cover over-allotments, if any.
The offering proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes and to
support expansion of the franchise, including the potential opening of new bank
branches. The bank anticipates opening a branch in the Olde City section of
Philadelphia during the first quarter of 2005. Other than the aforementioned,
Allegiance does not have any agreements or understandings to acquire or open
new locations. The additional capital will also result in an increase in the
bank's legal lending limit to one borrower allowing it to compete more
effectively and retain a larger portion of the loans it generates.
