Chino Commercial Bancorp Announces Commencement of Subscription Period for Rights Offering

CHINO, Calif., June 23, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Chino Commercial Bancorp (OTC-Pink:CCBC) announced today that it has commenced its previously announced rights offering.  The Company is offering up to 307,883 shares of its common stock on a “best efforts” basis at a purchase price of $15.00 per share, and is distributing non-transferable subscription rights to existing shareholders to purchase all 307,883 of such shares, plus certain “bonus” shares as described further below.  The Company is offering the shares first to existing shareholders pursuant to the subscription rights and a related over-subscription privilege, and then (if any shares remain available) to other interested investors.  While the purchase price in all cases is $15.00 per share, persons exercising subscription rights or over-subscription privileges will receive a bonus equal to five percent (5%) of the number of shares at no additional cost.

The subscription rights and over-subscription privileges will be exercisable until 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on, July 21, 2017, unless the Company extends the expiration date.  If shares of the Company’s common stock remain available after the expiration of the rights portion of the offering, such shares will be offered to other interested investors on a non-rights basis at the same per share purchase price.  However, investors purchasing shares in the non-rights portion of the offering will not receive any “bonus” shares in connection with their purchases.  The expiration date for non-rights subscribers will be September 21, 2017, unless extended.

Shareholder subscription rights agreements describing each shareholder’s specific subscription rights, together with an offering circular and other information regarding the subscription rights will be mailed to registered shareholders shortly.  Shareholders who hold their shares of Chino Commercial Bancorp common stock through a bank or broker will receive the subscription rights materials from their bank or broker.
