TERRITORIAL BANCORP INC. (NASDAQ:TBNK) Files An 8-K Other Events
Item 8.01 Other Events

Territorial Bancorp Inc. (the “Company”), headquartered in Honolulu, Hawaii, the holding company parent of Territorial Savings Bank (Bank), is hereby providing information regarding its lending activity in the area of the recent Kilauea lava flows. The latest Kilauea volcano eruption has destroyed homes in the lower Puna district of the Big Island of Hawaii. These lava flows, according to the US Geographical Survey, covered 9.1 square miles as of June11, 2018. The Puna district has a total land area of approximately 500 square miles and The Big Island of Hawaii is approximately 4,000 square miles in total land area.

The Bank has eight single family mortgage loans in the Puna, Hawaii zip code of 96778 with an aggregate outstanding balance of $571,000 as of May31, 2018. While all of these loans are performing and the Bank is not aware of any claims of damage on the properties securing the loans, the Bank believes that one of the loans, with a outstanding balance of $56,500 as of May31, 2018, may have been in the path of the lava flow. The Bank believes, as of the date of this release, that the other seven properties are not in the path of the current lava flow. The Bank does not currently expect that the lava flows to date will have a material impact on the Company’s assets or operations.
