EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 relates to the following Registration Statements on Form S-8 (collectively, the “Registration Statements”):

 

  •   Registration Statement No. 333-212232 registering 240,699 shares of Paragon Commercial Corporation common stock in connection with the Paragon Commercial Corporation 2006 Omnibus Stock Ownership and Long Term Incentive Plan; and

 

  •   Registration Statement No. 333-212233 registering 100,367 shares of Paragon Commercial Corporation common stock in connection with the Paragon Commercial Corporation Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

On January 26, 2018, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated as of April 26, 2017, by and among TowneBank, TB Acquisition, LLC, Paragon Commercial Corporation (“Paragon”) and Paragon Commercial Bank, and a related Plan of Merger, Paragon was merged with and into TB Acquisition, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of TowneBank (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, Paragon ceased to exist as of 5:02 p.m. on January 26, 2018.

Upon the completion of the Merger, each outstanding share of Paragon common stock was converted into the right to receive 1.7250 shares of TowneBank common stock. Shares of Paragon common stock are no longer quoted on the Nasdaq Stock Market.

As a result of the Merger, Paragon has terminated all offerings of securities pursuant to the Registration Statements. In accordance with the undertakings made by Paragon in the Registration Statements to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of its securities being registered under the Registration Statements that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, TowneBank (as successor to Paragon) hereby terminates the effectiveness of the Registration Statements and deregisters any and all shares of Paragon common stock originally reserved for issuance under the plans covered by the Registration Statements and registered under the Registration Statements, which remain unsold or unissued as of the date hereof.
