Item 8.01. Other Events.
Pursuant to the terms of a Supervisory Prompt Corrective Action Directive (the Directive) issued on November 2, 2011 by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the FDIC) to Tennessee Commerce Bank (the Bank), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tennessee Commerce Bancorp, Inc. (the Company), the Bank was required to increase its capital to a level sufficient to restore the Bank to an adequately capitalized status and applicable FDIC regulations by December 2, 2011 or take any necessary action to result in the Banks acquisition by another insured depository institution holding company or to merge with another insured depository institution.
The Bank did not regain adequately capitalized status by the December 2
nd
deadline. We continue to work with our financial advisor to assist us in exploring and evaluating every possible strategic alternative that would allow the Bank to comply with the Directive. Nevertheless, the Company may not be able to find a viable alternative, and if no such alternative is found, it is likely that the FDIC will be appointed as a conservator or receiver of the Bank.
Caution about forward-looking statements
Certain information contained herein may include forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements relate to finding a viable strategic alternative to allow the Bank to comply with the Directive. There can be no assurance that the Bank will be able to find a viable strategic alternative or comply with the Directive. Factors that could cause actual events to differ from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements include the cautionary language under Risk Factors and Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, as amended, the Companys Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, and other filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
