Item 8.01 – Other Events.

 

Stock purchase agreement to sell Generations Bank expires

 

The stock purchase agreement entered into by Kansas City Life Insurance Company to sell Generations Bank to a consortium of local investors organized as Generations Bancorp expired as of September 30, 2005. The sale was not consummated due to a delay in regulatory approval of the Generations Bancorp application by the Office of Thrift Supervision.

 

Kansas City Life entered into the stock purchase agreement on October 25, 2004, under which Generations Bancorp would have purchased all of the issued and outstanding shares of Generations Bank stock for approximately $10.1 million in cash. The sale of Generations Bank would have represented less than two percent of Kansas City Life’s $4.7 billion in total assets as of June 30, 2005.
