HANMI FINANCIAL CORPORATION
AMENDED AND RESTATED 2007 EMPLOYEE STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT
1. Grant of Restricted Stock. The Company has granted to you the number of Common Shares
of Restricted Stock specified in the Notice of Grant on the preceding page (“Notice of
Grant”), subject to the following terms and conditions. In consideration of such grant, you
agree to be bound by such terms and conditions, and by the terms and conditions of the Plan.
2. Period of Restriction. During the Period of Restriction specified in the Notice of
Grant, the Common Shares shall remain subject to the Company’s Return Right (defined in Section 3).
The Period of Restriction shall expire and the Company’s Return Right shall lapse as to the Common
Shares granted in the amount(s) and on the date(s) specified in the Notice of Grant (each, a
“Release Date”); provided, however, that no Common Shares shall be released on any Release
Date if the Participant has ceased Continuous Status as an Employee, Consultant or Director on or
prior to such date. Any and all Common Shares subject to the Company’s Return Right at any time
shall be defined in this Notice and Agreement as “Unreleased Common Shares.”
3. Return of Restricted Stock to Company. If Participant ceases Continuous Status as an
Employee, Consultant or Director for any reason (a “Return Event”), the Company shall
become the legal and beneficial owner of the Unreleased Common Shares and all rights and interests
therein or relating thereto, and the Company shall have the right to retain and transfer such
Unreleased Common Shares to its own name. The Participant shall continue to own any Common Shares
subject to the terms of the Plan and this Notice and Agreement with respect to which the
Participant has Continuous Status as an Employee, Consultant or Director through the Release
Date(s) specified in the Notice of Grant for such Common Shares.
4. Restriction on Transfer. Except for the transfer of the Common Shares to the Company or
its assignees contemplated by this Notice and Agreement, none of the Common Shares or any
beneficial interest therein shall be transferred, encumbered or otherwise disposed of in any way
until the Release Date for such Common Shares set forth in this Notice and Agreement. In addition,
as a condition to any transfer of the Common Shares after such Release Date, the Company may, in
its discretion, require: (i) that the Common Shares shall have been duly listed upon any national
securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Company’s Common Stock may then be
listed or quoted; (ii) that either (a) a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (“Securities Act”) with respect to the Common Shares shall be effective, or (b)
in the opinion of counsel for the Company, the proposed purchase shall be exempt from registration
under the Securities Act and the Participant shall have entered into agreements with the Company as
reasonably required; and (iii) fulfillment of any other requirements deemed necessary by counsel
for the Company to comply with Applicable Law.
5. Retention of Common Shares. To ensure the availability for delivery of the
Participant’s Unreleased Common Shares upon their return to the Company pursuant to this Notice and
Agreement, the Company shall retain possession of the share certificates representing the
Unreleased Common Shares, together with a stock assignment duly endorsed in blank, attached hereto
as Exhibit A. The Company shall hold the Unreleased Common Shares and related stock
assignment until the Release Date for such Common Shares. In addition, the Company may require the
spouse of Participant, if any, to execute and deliver to the Company the Consent of Spouse in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit B. When a Return Event or Release Date occurs,
- 2 -
the Company shall promptly deliver the certificate for the applicable Common Shares to the Company
or to the Participant, as the case may be.
6. Stockholder Rights. Subject to the terms hereof, the Participant shall have all the
rights of a stockholder with respect to the Common Shares while they are retained by the Company
pursuant to Section 5, including without limitation, the right to vote the Common Shares and to
receive any cash dividends declared thereon. If, from time to time prior to the Release Date, there
is (i) any stock dividend, stock split or other change in the Common Shares, or (ii) any merger or
sale of all or substantially all of the assets or other acquisition of the Company, any and all
new, substituted or additional securities to which the Participant shall be entitled by reason of
the Participant’s ownership of the Common Shares shall be immediately subject to the terms of this
Notice and Agreement and included thereafter as “Common Shares” for purposes of this Notice and
Agreement.
7. Legends. The share certificate evidencing the Common Shares, if any, issued hereunder
shall be endorsed with the following legend (in addition to any legend required under applicable
state securities laws):
THE COMMON SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS UPON
TRANSFER, OBLIGATIONS TO RETURN TO AND THE COMPANY, AS SET FORTH IN AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE
COMPANY AND THE HOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.
8. U.S. Tax Consequences. The Participant has reviewed with the Participant’s own tax
advisors the federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the
transactions contemplated by this Notice and Agreement. The Participant is relying solely on such
advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its employees or
agents. The Participant understands that the Participant (and not the Company) shall be responsible
for the Participant’s own tax liability that may arise as a result of the transactions contemplated
by this Notice and Agreement. The Participant understands that for U.S. taxpayers, Section 83 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), taxes as ordinary income the
difference between the purchase price for the Common Shares, if any, and the fair market value of
the Common Shares as of the date any restrictions on the Common Shares lapse. In this context,
“restriction” includes the right of the Company to the return of the Common Shares upon a Return
Event. The Participant understands that if he/she is a U.S. taxpayer, the Participant may elect to
be taxed at the time the Common Shares are awarded as Restricted Stock rather than when and as the
Return Right expires by filing an election under Section 83(b) of the Code with the IRS within 30
days from the date of acquisition. The form for making this election is attached as Exhibit
C hereto.
THE PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS THE PARTICIPANT’S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY AND NOT THE COMPANY’S
TO FILE TIMELY THE ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b), IF APPLICABLE, EVEN IF THE PARTICIPANT REQUESTS
THE COMPANY OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES TO MAKE THIS FILING ON THE PARTICIPANT’S BEHALF.
9. General.
(a) This Notice and Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of
California. The Notice and Agreement and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference,
represents the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the Common Shares
of Restricted Stock granted to the Participant. In the event of a conflict between the terms and
conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this Notice and Agreement, the terms and
conditions of the Plan shall prevail.
(b) Any notice, demand or request required or permitted to be delivered by either the Company or
the Participant pursuant to the terms of this Notice and Agreement shall be in writing and shall be
deemed given when delivered personally, deposited with an international courier service, or
deposited in the U.S. Mail, First Class with postage prepaid, and addressed to the parties at the
addresses set forth in the Notice of Grant, or such other address as a party may request by
notifying the other in writing.
(c) The rights of the Company under this Notice and Agreement and the Plan shall be transferable to
any one or more persons or entities, and all covenants and agreements hereunder shall inure to the
benefit of, and be enforceable by the Company’s successors and assigns. The rights and obligations
of the Participant under this Notice and Agreement may only be assigned with the prior written
consent of the Company.
(d) The Participant agrees upon request to execute any further documents or instruments necessary
or desirable to carry out the purposes or intent of this Notice and Agreement.
(e) PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE RELEASE OF COMMON SHARES PURSUANT TO THIS
AGREEMENT SHALL BE EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING SERVICE AS AN EMPLOYEE, CONSULTANT OR DIRECTOR, AND
NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, APPOINTED OR OBTAINING COMMON SHARES HEREUNDER.
