Other Events.

On July 29, 2019, CVB Financial Corp. (the “Company”), the holding company for Citizens Business Bank, issued a press release announcing that, pursuant to the Company’s common stock repurchase program (the “Repurchase Program”), the Company’s Board of Directors has authorized the Company to enter into an amendment to the Company’s 2018 Rule 10b5-1 repurchase plan agreement which originally became effective on November 1, 2018 (the “2018 10b5-1 Plan”). Pursuant to the 2018 10b5-1 Plan, as amended by the July 29, 2019 amendment (together, the “2018 Amended 10b5-1 Plan”), the aggregate number of shares subject to repurchase by the Company, as compared to the 2018 10b5-1 Plan, has been increased from a maximum of 6,000,000 to 9,577,917 shares of the Company’s common stock, and such shares will be eligible for repurchase by the Company beginning on July 29, 2019 until the 2018 Amended 10b5-1 Plan expires on July 31, 2020, unless the aggregate authorized share repurchases are completed sooner or the 2018 Amended 10b5-1 Plan is otherwise extended or terminated.

The Company has repurchased 422,083 shares of its common stock since August 11, 2016, which was the effective date of the repurchase plan agreement which preceded the 2018 10b5-1 Plan. Accordingly, as of July 29, 2019, as noted above, 9,577,917 shares of the Company’s common stock remain available for repurchase under the Company’s Repurchase Program as amended by the 2018 Amended 10b5-1 Plan.

A copy of the press release is included as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is hereby incorporated by reference herein.
