Explanatory Statement to Form 10-K Amendment

The purpose of this Annual Report on Form 10-K/A is to amend Part III, Items 10 through 14 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2011, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on March 14, 2012 (the Original Filing), to include information previously omitted from the Original Filing in reliance on
General Instruction G to Form 10-K, which provides that registrants may incorporate by reference certain information from a definitive proxy statement, which involves the election of directors, if filed with the SEC within 120 days after the end of
the fiscal year covered by the Original Filing. The Companys definitive proxy statement will not be filed before April 30, 2012 (i.e., within 120 days after the end of the Companys 2011 fiscal year) pursuant to Regulation 14A. The
reference in the Original Filing to the incorporation by reference of the registrants definitive proxy statement into Part III of the Original Filing is hereby deleted.

In addition, as required by Rule 12b-15 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), new certifications by our principal executive officer and principal financial
officer are filed as exhibits to this Annual Report on Form 10-K/A under Item 15 of Part IV hereof.

For purposes of this Annual Report on Form
10-K/A, and in accordance with Rule 12b-15 under the Exchange Act, Items 10 through 14 and 15(a)(3) of our Original Filing are being amended and restated in their entirety. Except as stated herein, this Form 10-K/A does not reflect events occurring
after the filing of the Original Filing and no attempt has been made in this Annual Report on Form 10-K/A to modify or update other disclosures as presented in the Original Filing. Accordingly, this Form 10-K/A should be read in conjunction with our
filings with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing.

|ITEM 10. | DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
|-------- | ------------------------------------------------------

Board of Directors

Hanmi Financials Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation, as amended, and Amended and Restated Bylaws provide for a Board of Directors consisting of no less than five (5) and no more than eleven (11) Directors, the exact number within this range to be determined by the Board of
Directors. Currently, the Board of Directors consists of the following seven (7) members: I Joon Ahn; John A. Hall; Paul Seon-Hong Kim; Joon Hyung Lee; Joseph K. Rho; William J. Stolte; and Jay S. Yoo.

In addition to each directors professional experience outlined in the table below, the Company believes each member of the Board of Directors
has other key attributes that are important to an effective Board: integrity and demonstrated high ethical standards; sound judgment; analytical skills; the ability to engage management and each other in a constructive and collaborative fashion;
diversity of origin, background, experience, and thought; and the commitment to devote significant time and energy to service on the Board and its Committees.

None of the Directors or executive officers was selected or hired pursuant to any arrangement or understanding. There are no family relationships among the Directors or the executive officers of Hanmi Financial. As
of the date hereof, no Director holds a directorship with another company that has a class of securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act or subject to the requirements of Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, or any
company registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

In

The Board of Directors and Its Committees

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, the Board of Directors held twenty nine (29) meetings. No Director attended fewer than
ninety-seven (97%) of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board of Directors and the committees on which he served. Hanmi Financials policy is to encourage all Directors to attend all Annual and Special Meetings of Stockholders. Hanmi
Financials 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders was attended by all Directors.

The Board of Directors has a process for
stockholders to send communications to Directors. Hanmi Financials stockholders and interested parties may send communications to the Board of Directors by writing to the Board of Directors at Hanmi Financial Corporation, 3660 Wilshire
Boulevard, Penthouse Suite A, Los Angeles, California 90010, Attention: Board of Directors. All such communications will be relayed directly to the Board of Directors. Any interested party wishing to communicate directly with Hanmi Financials
independent Directors regarding any matter may send such communication in writing to Hanmi Financials independent Directors at Hanmi Financial Corporation, 3660 Wilshire Boulevard, Penthouse Suite A, Los Angeles, California 90010, Attention:
Chairman of the Board. Any interested party wishing to communicate directly with the Audit Committee regarding any matter, including any accounting, internal accounting controls, or auditing matter, may submit such communication in writing to Hanmi
Financial Corporation, 3660 Wilshire Boulevard, Penthouse Suite A, Los Angeles, California 90010, Attention: Chairman of the Audit Committee.

Any of the submissions may be anonymous and/or confidential. Confidentiality is a priority, and all reports will be treated confidentially to the fullest extent possible. Stockholders may communicate to the Board
of Directors on an anonymous basis and submissions of complaints or concerns will not be traced. For submissions that are not anonymous, the sender may be contacted in order to confirm information or to obtain additional information.

The Board of Directors has three standing committees: the Audit Committee; the Nominating and Corporate Governance and Compensation Committee; and
the Planning Committee. Each committee is governed by a charter, each of which is available through Hanmi Financials website at www.hanmi.com by clicking on Investor Relations and then Corporate Overview
and then Governance Documents.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee appoints an independent registered public accounting firm to conduct the annual audit of Hanmi Financials books and
records. The Audit Committee also reviews with such accounting firm the scope and results of the annual audit, the performance by such accounting firm of professional services in addition to those related to the annual audit, and the adequacy of
Hanmi Financials internal controls. The current members of Hanmi Financials Audit Committee are John A. Hall, Paul Seon-Hong Kim, Joon Hyung Lee, Joseph K. Rho and William J. Stolte, with Mr. Hall serving as its Chairman. Each
member is an outside (or non-employee) Director and meets the independence requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and The NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. (NASDAQ). Mr. Hall, Mr. Kim, and
Mr. Stolte are audit committee financial experts within the meaning of the current rules of the SEC. The Audit Committee held thirteen (13) meetings during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. See Report of
the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors maintains an Audit Committee composed of a minimum of three (3) outside Directors. The Board of Directors and the Audit
Committee believe that the Audit Committees current member composition satisfies Rule 5605(c)(2)(A) of NASDAQ, which governs audit committee composition, because all Audit Committee members are independent directors.

The primary responsibility of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its responsibility to oversee managements
conduct of Hanmi Financials financial reporting process, including: overseeing the integrity of the financial reports and other financial information provided to governmental or regulatory bodies (such as the SEC), the public, and other users
thereof; Hanmi Financials systems of internal accounting and financial controls; and the annual independent audit of Hanmi Financials financial statements.

Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including the system of internal controls. The independent registered public accounting firm, or the independent
auditor, appointed by the Audit Committee is responsible for auditing the financial statements and expressing an opinion on the conformity of those financial statements with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee reviewed the 2011 audited financial statements with management and the independent
auditor. The Audit Committee discussed with the independent auditor the matters required to be discussed in accordance with Statement of Auditing Standards No. 114 (as amended by AICPA, Professional Standards, Vol. 1, AU Section 380), as
adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) in Rule 3200T regarding Communication with Audit Committees. This included a discussion of the independent auditors judgments as to the quality, not just
the acceptability, of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments, the disclosures in the financial statements, and any other matters that are required to be discussed with the Audit Committee under PCAOB standards. In
addition, the Audit Committee received from the independent auditor written disclosures and the letter required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent auditors communication with the Audit Committee concerning
independence, and the Audit Committee has discussed with the independent auditor the independent auditors independence.

In
addition, in response to the requirements set forth in Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and related regulations, management assessed the effectiveness of Hanmi Financials internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2011. Management based this assessment on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in Internal Control-Integrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission. Managements assessment included an evaluation of the design of Hanmi Financials internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting.
At the conclusion of managements assessment, the Audit Committee reviewed a report submitted by management on the effectiveness of Hanmi Financials internal control over financial reporting.

The Audit Committee discussed with Hanmi Financials independent auditor the overall scope and plans for its audits. The Audit Committee met
with the independent auditor, with and without management present, to discuss the results of its audits and its evaluations of Hanmi Financials internal controls and the overall quality of Hanmi Financials financial reporting. The Audit
Committee also discussed the independence of the independent auditor and concluded that its services provided to Hanmi Financial, including its tax and non-audit related work, were compatible with maintaining its independence.

##### Table of Contents

Based on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board
of Directors, and the Board of Directors approved, that the audited financial statements be included in Hanmi Financials Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 for filing with the SEC.

THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

John A. Hall (Chairman)

Paul Seon-Hong Kim

Joon Hyung Lee

Joseph K. Rho

William J. Stolte

Planning Committee

The Planning Committee recommends planning policy, new lines of business, capital and financial plans, and dividend plans to the Board of Directors, and monitors Hanmi Financials planning activities and Hanmi
Financials performance against its plans and budget. During 2011, the members of the Planning Committee were William J. Stolte, I Joon Ahn, Paul Seon-Hong Kim, Joseph K. Rho, and Jay S. Yoo, with Mr. Stolte serving as its Chairman. Except
for Mr. Yoo, each member is an outside (or non-employee) Director and meets the independence requirements of the SEC and NASDAQ. The Planning Committee held twenty one (21) meetings during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.

Nominating and Corporate Governance and Compensation Committee

The Nominating and Corporate Governance and Compensation (NCGC) Committee assists the Board of Directors by: identifying individuals
qualified to become Directors; recommends to the Board of Directors the Director nominees for the Board of Directors and its committees for the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders; develops, recommends, and implements a set of corporate governance
principles applicable to Hanmi Financial; and monitors the process to determine the effectiveness of the Board of Directors and its committees.

The members of the NCGC Committee are Joon Hyung Lee, I Joon Ahn, John Hall, Paul Seon-Hong Kim, and Joseph K. Rho, with Mr. Lee serving as its Chairman. Each member is an outside (or non-employee) Director
and meets the independence requirements of the SEC and NASDAQ. The NCGC Committee held fifteen (15) meetings during 2011. See NCGC Committee Report.

The NCGC Committee believes that the Board of Directors as a whole should encompass a range of talent, skill, diversity, and expertise enabling it to provide sound guidance with respect to Hanmi Financials
operations and interests. In addition to considering a candidates background and accomplishments, candidates are reviewed in the context of the current composition of the Board of Directors and the evolving needs of Hanmi Financials
business.

The NCGC Committee seeks directors with strong reputations and experience in areas relevant to the strategy and operations of
Hanmi Financials business, particularly industries and growth segments that Hanmi Financial serves, such and the banking and financial services industry, as well as key geographic markets where Hanmi Financial operates. Each of Hanmi
Financials current Directors holds or has held senior executive positions in large, complex organizations and has operating experience that meets this objective. In those positions, they have also gained experience in core management skills,
such as strategic and financial planning, public company financial reporting, corporate governance, risk management and leadership development.

The NCGC Committee also believes that each of the current Directors has other key attributes that are
important to an effective board: integrity and demonstrated high ethical standards; sound judgment; analytical skills; the ability to engage management and each other in a constructive and collaborative fashion; diversity or origin, background,
experience, and thought; and the commitment to devote significant time and energy to service on the Board of Directors.

The NCGC
Committee annually reviews the individual skills and characteristics of the Directors, as well as the composition of the Board of Directors as a whole. This assessment includes a consideration of independence, diversity, age, skills, expertise, time
availability, and industry background in the context of the needs of the Board of Directors and Hanmi Financial. Although Hanmi Financial has no policy regarding diversity, the NCGC Committee seeks a broad range of perspectives and considers both
the personal characteristics (gender, ethnicity, age) and experience (industry, professional, public service) of its Directors and prospective nominees to the Board of Directors.

Recommendations by any stockholder for Director nominees must be submitted in writing to the Chairman of the NCGC Committee at Hanmi
Financials principal executive offices, no later than the last business day of January of the year that Hanmi Financials next Annual Meeting of Stockholders will be held, to be considered at such Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
Stockholders shall include in such recommendation:

Financials stockholders;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In identifying and evaluating Director candidates, the NCGC Committee will solicit and receive recommendations, and review qualifications of potential Director candidates. The NCGC Committee also may use search
firms to identify Director candidates. To enable the NCGC Committee to effectively evaluate Director candidates, the NCGC Committee also may conduct appropriate inquiries into the backgrounds and qualifications of Director candidates, including
reference checks. As stated above, the NCGC Committee will consider Director candidates recommended by stockholders utilizing the same criteria as candidates identified by the NCGC Committee.

Additionally, the NCGC Committee is responsible for determining the compensation of all of Hanmi Financials executive officers, including
Hanmi Financials Chief Executive Officer, as well as administering Hanmi Financials compensation plans. The NCGC Committee has the authority to delegate such decisions to subcommittees of the NCGC Committee. The NCGC Committee also is
authorized to retain outside consultants to assist it in determining executive officer compensation.

Leadership
Structure

The Board of Directors does not have a policy regarding the separation of the roles of Chief Executive Officer and
Chairman of the Board, as the Board believes it is in the best interests of the Company to make that determination based on the position and direction of the Company and the membership of the Board of Directors at any given time. The Board of
Directors has determined that having an independent director serve as Chairman of the Board is in the best interest of the Companys stockholders at this time. This structure ensures a greater role for the independent Directors in the oversight
of the Company and active participation of the independent Directors in setting agendas and establishing Board priorities and procedures. Further, this structure permits the Chief Executive Officer to focus on the management of the Companys
day-to-day operations.

Risk Oversight

The Company has a risk management program overseen by Jean Lim, the Chief Risk Officer of Hanmi Bank, who reports directly to Hanmi Banks Chief Executive Officer. Material risks are identified and prioritized
by management, and each prioritized task is referred to a Board committee or the full Board of Directors for oversight. For example, strategic risks are referred to the full Board of Directors while financial risks are referred to the Audit
Committee. The Board of Directors regularly reviews information regarding the Companys credit, liquidity, and operations, as well as the risks associated with each, and annually reviews the Companys risk management program as a whole.
Also, the NCGC Committee periodically reviews the most important risks to the Company to ensure that compensation programs do not encourage excessive risk-taking.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Under
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, Hanmi Financials Directors, executive officers, and any persons holding ten percent (10%) or more of Hanmi Financials common stock are required to report their ownership of common stock and
any changes in that ownership to the SEC and to furnish Hanmi Financial with copies of such reports. Specific due dates for these reports have been established, and Hanmi Financial is required to report in

this Annual Report of Form 10-K/A any failure to file on a timely basis by such persons. Based solely upon a

review of copies of reports filed with the SEC during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, Hanmi Financial believes that all persons, subject to the reporting requirements of
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, have filed all required reports on a timely basis.

Compensation
Discussion and Analysis

Overview

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis (CD&A) describes our compensation philosophy, methodologies and our current practices with respect to the remuneration programs for the individuals listed
in the Summary Compensation Table on page 14 (the Named Executive Officers). The compensation programs of our Named Executive Officers are established, evaluated and maintained by the NCGC Committee of Hanmi Financials Board of
Directors. The NCGC Committee is comprised entirely of outside Directors that satisfy the NASDAQ listing requirements and relevant Internal Revenue Code and SEC regulations on independence.

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

The compensation programs provided to our
Named Executive Officers are designed to attract and retain high caliber banking executives, and to appropriately reward them for their achievement of business objectives that further the success of Hanmi Financial. Another objective is to encourage
continued performance by offering long-term incentives, such as stock options, that align executive and stockholders interest. In the end, the overriding goal is to maximize stockholder value.

Methodology for Establishing Compensation

To assist the NCGC Committee in its administration of the compensation programs for the Named Executive Officers, the Human Resources Department of Hanmi Financial gathers data from competing financial
institutions. The compensation data is obtained from both proxy statements of publicly traded banks and from salary survey data provided by the California Department of Financial Institutions. In addition to the market data, the NCGC Committee also
reviews and considers the recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer (the CEO).

In establishing the target compensation
levels and pay mix for the Named Executive Officers, the NCGC Committee periodically reviews publicly disclosed compensation data of California banks with total assets ranging between $1.0 and $6.5 billion (the Peer Group), including:

The Peer Group was selected to include banks comparable in size and those that the Hanmi Financial competes with in
the market for executive talent, including two banks that are direct competitors in the Los Angeles Korean-American community. The survey data was used by the NCGC Committee as a second point of reference in determining the appropriate levels of
compensation and pay mix for the Named Executive Officers.

##### Table of Contents

Although the decisions regarding the compensation levels are guided by the information provided from
the Peer Group and survey data, the NCGC Committee also takes into account the prevailing economic environment and the current financial condition of Hanmi Financial. The objective of the NCGC Committee is to establish compensation programs that are
motivating but affordable, with the purpose of aligning the interests of our Named Executive Officers with those of our stockholders.

Elements of the Compensation Program

The following describes the various components of the compensation mix that Hanmi Financial provides to the Named Executive Officers, the objectives of each pay component and how each component is used to create a
total competitive compensation package.

The NCGC Committee provides the Named Executive Officers with a compensation package that
includes annual base salary, short-term cash incentive compensation, long-term incentive awards, executive perquisites and a broad-based benefits program.

Annual Base Salary

Annual base salaries are the fixed portion of the Named Executive
Officers cash compensation and are intended to reward the day-to-day aspects of their roles and responsibilities. The Named Executive Officers annual salaries were set at the time they first joined the bank. The initial salaries were
established by taking into account several factors including, but not limited to, the executives experience, responsibilities, management abilities and job performance. Hanmi Financial targets base salaries for its Named Executive Officers at
market median. The NCGC Committee believes that the fiscal year 2011 base salaries of Hanmi Financials Named Executive Officers are competitive with companies of similar size. Pay adjustments are generally made annually, after reviewing
overall company performance, individual performance and the affordability of the increase. For fiscal year 2011, there were minimal salary adjustments. The CEOs annual adjustment to base salary is incorporated in his Employment Agreement, as
described in Named Executive Officers CompensationEmployment Agreement with Chief Executive Officer, Jay S. Yoo. For fiscal year 2011, the CEO is the only Named Executive Officer who has an Employment Agreement with
Hanmi Financial. All other Named Executive Officers are employed at-will.

Short-Term Cash Incentive Compensation

In accordance with Hanmi Financials compensation philosophy, a significant portion of the compensation of the Named Executive Officers is
performance-based. For each Named Executive Officer, target bonuses are stated as a percentage of base salary. The annual bonus payable to the CEO is capped at 75% of his base salary. The annual bonuses payable to the other Named Executive
Officers are capped at 50% of base salary.

The NCGC Committee reviews performance against pre-established financial and
non-financial goals on an annual basis to determine the short-term cash incentive compensation of the Named Executive Officers. For fiscal year 2011, financial performance was measured by Asset Quality, Liquidity, Capital Adequacy and Earnings.
These metrics were weighted differently among the various Named Executive Officers. The non-financial goal for fiscal year 2011 was measured based on the Regulatory Rating of Hanmi Bank. No other performance goals were established by the NCGC
Committee for determining the short-term cash incentive compensation for the Named Executive Officers. The individual performance of each Named Executive Officer is discussed below.

Long-Term Incentive Awards

Long-term incentive awards, such as stock options and restricted stock, are the third key component of the Named Executive Officers total
compensation. The members of the NCGC Committee believe that employee stock ownership is a significant incentive for the Named Executive Officers to build stockholder wealth, and thereby aligning the interests of employees and stockholders. The
members of the NCGC Committee also believe that equity-based compensation complements the short-term cash incentive compensation by forcing executives to recognize the impact their short-term decisions might have on long-term outcomes. This
compensation approach limits an executives ability to reap short-term gains at the expense of Hanmi Financials long-term success. This is also an important tool in retaining Named Executive Officers, particularly through less rewarding
years.

Long-term incentive awards are granted to the Named Executive Officers pursuant to the Hanmi Financial Corporation 2007 Equity
Compensation Plan, as may be amended from time to time (the 2007 Plan). The NCGC Committee has not established grant guidelines; rather, the size, timing, and other material terms of the long-term incentive awards for the Named Executive
Officers are made at the discretion of the Board of Directors and the NCGC Committee. Factors considered by the NCGC Committee and the Board of Directors include awards to industry peers and each executives previous grant history. Stock
options and restricted stock grants awarded are included in the Summary Compensation Table.

The NCGC Committee approves all awards under
the 2007 Plan and acts as the administrator of the 2007 Plan. Stock options granted under the 2007 Plan generally vest over a five-year period, with 20 percent becoming exercisable (vesting) on each anniversary of the grant date. All stock options
are granted with a ten-year exercise term and have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of Hanmi Financials common stock on the grant date. Restricted stock granted under the 2007 Plan generally vests over a five-year period, with
20 percent becoming unrestricted on each anniversary of the grant date.

Executive Perquisites

The Named Executive Officers and other senior management employees receive the following benefits in addition to their other compensation: gasoline
card; cellular phone allowance; and automobile allowance. Chief Executive Officer, Jay S. Yoo, also received a membership in a golf country club. These additional benefits of the Named Executive Officers are detailed in the Summary Compensation
Table.

Broad-Based Benefits Programs

The Named Executive Officers participate in the benefit programs that are available to all full-time employees. These benefits include health, dental, vision, and life insurance, short-term and long-term disability
insurance, healthcare reimbursement accounts, paid vacation, and contributions to a 401(k) profit sharing retirement plan.

Severance
Arrangements

The CEOs Employment Agreement contains a provision for severance pay of a period of six (6) months in case
of the involuntary termination of his employment by Hanmi Financial without cause. This provision is subject to regulatory approval per the Written Agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank. The other Named Executive Officers do not have any such
severance arrangements.

Compensation Policy Risk Assessment

The NCGC Committee reviews the compensation of the Named Executive Officers, as well as the overall compensation practices for the organization. Any
performance incentive programs, awarding of bonus payments, and the budgeting for annual salary adjustments are reviewed and approved by the NCGC Committee before being presented to the full board of directors for ratification. An important aspect
of the review is an assessment of whether the programs in any way encourage the Named Executive Officers or any other employee of Hanmi Financial to take unacceptable risk, in the short or long term.

Named Executive Officers Compensation

The CEO meets with the NCGC Committee to review the CEOs compensation recommendation for the other Named Executive Officers. For fiscal year 2011, the CEOs base salary was adjusted in accordance with
his Employment Agreement, and the Chief Credit Officer, Jung Hak Son, also received an increase of $12,000/year. Brian Cho, Chief Financial Officer until October 14, 2011, did not receive any increase.

Employment Agreement with Chief Executive Officer, Jay S. Yoo

Jay S. Yoo joined Hanmi Financial and Hanmi Bank as President and Chief Executive Officer as of June 23, 2008. His Employment Agreement, as
amended by an Amendment to Employment Agreement, dated as of February 23, 2011, has a three-year term, which expires on June 23, 2013, and provides for a base salary of $350,000, which increases by $10,000 on each of June 23, 2011 and
June 23, 2012, and provides for a target bonus of up to seventy-five percent (75%) of his annual base salary. The increase in Mr. Yoos base salary to $350,000 was made retroactive to June 2010.

Mr. Yoos bonus, which is to be paid in cash, is dependent on the attainment of certain financial goals set by the Board of Directors. The
financial goals were set in mid-2011. Performance evaluation will be assessed and bonuses, if any, will be paid in 2012.

In addition,
under Mr. Yoos Employment Agreement, as amended, he is entitled to the use of a company car, a bank issued cellular telephone, membership in a golf country club, and payment of reasonable business related expenses. The Amendment to his
Employment Agreement also provided for the granting of an option to purchase 18,750 shares of Hanmi Financial stock. The terms of the stock options are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the 2007 Plan. The options vest in equal
installments over three years starting one year after the date of the grant. The Amendment to Mr. Yoos Employment Agreement also provides for the issuance of 7,500 shares of restricted stock. The terms of the restricted stock are subject
to the terms and conditions set forth in the 2007 Plan. This restricted stock vests in equal installments over three years starting one year after the issuance date. The first vesting occurred in June 2011 and is detailed in the compensation table
included in this report.

Compensation for Former Chief Financial Officer, Brian Cho

Brian E. Cho, former Executive Vice President & former Chief Financial Officer joined the organization in December 2007 and retired in
October 2011. He did not have an employment agreement and his employment was at-will. Per his employment letter executed November 1, 2007, his annual base salary was $270,000 and he was eligible to receive incentive cash compensation of up to
fifty percent (50%) of his annual base salary. The bonus payable to Mr. Cho was based on the banks performance and his individual performance.

In 2011, he received an annual base salary of $249,231, as well as an auto allowance of $700 per month, a cell phone allowance of $100 per month, a gas card, and other general benefits afforded to all employees.

cash as well as continued insurance coverage for 6 months valued at $13,152. The outstanding stock options and restricted stock grants held by Mr. Cho were accelerated, in full, at the time of his departure. The combined value of the severance
package was $149,852.

Compensation for Chief Financial Officer, Lonny D. Robinson

Lonny D. Robinson, Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer joined the organization in October 11, 2011. He does not have an
employment agreement and his employment is at-will. Per his employment letter executed on September 13, 2011, his annual base salary is $230,000 and he is eligible to receive incentive cash compensation of up to fifty percent (50%) of his

and other general benefits afforded to all employees. His employment letter also provided for the granting of an option to purchase 6,250 shares of Hanmi Financial stock. The terms of the stock options are subject to the terms and conditions set
forth in the 2007 Plan. The options vest in equal installments over five years starting one year after the date of the grant. In addition to the stock option, the letter also provided for the granting 2,500 shares of restricted stocks. The
restricted stock shall become vested in equal installments over five years starting one year after the date of grant.

Compensation for Chief Credit Officer, Jung Hak Son

Mr. Jung Hak Son, Executive Vice President and Chief Credit Officer since December 2009, also does not have an employment agreement and his
employment is at-will. His annual compensation is $222,000, and he is eligible to receive incentive cash compensation of up to fifty percent (50%) of his base salary. The bonus payable to Mr. Son is dependent on the banks performance
and his individual performance. The goals for his individual performance were set in mid-2011.

In 2011, he received an annual base
salary of $218,815, as well as an auto allowance of $700 per month, a cell phone allowance of $100 per month, a gas card, and other general benefits afforded to all employees.

Administrative Policies and Practices

To evaluate and administer the compensation
programs of the Named Executive Officers, the NCGC Committee meets at least four times a year. In addition, the NCGC Committee also holds special meetings to discuss extraordinary items. At the end of a meeting, the NCGC Committee may choose to meet
in executive session, when necessary. During the fiscal year 2011, the NCGC Committee met fifteen (15) times.

Stock Ownership
Guidelines

The NCGC Committee has not implemented stock ownership guidelines for the Named Executive Officers; however, the NCGC
Committee continues to periodically review best practices and re-evaluate whether stock ownership guidelines are consistent with our compensation philosophy and stockholders interests.

Tax Deductibility of Executive Officer Compensation

Internal Revenue Code
Section 162(m) precludes a public corporation from taking a deduction for compensation in excess of $1 million for its chief executive officer or any of its three other highest paid executive officers (excluding the chief financial officer),
unless certain specific and detailed criteria are satisfied. However,

performance-based compensation that has been approved by stockholders is excluded from the $1 million limit. Hanmi Financial complies with the requirements of Section 162(m). Accordingly,
the deduction taken for the compensation paid to the Named Executive Officers 2011 was not limited by Section 162(m). The NCGC Committee will continue to carefully consider the impact of Section 162(m) in determining the appropriate pay
mix and compensation levels for the Named Executive Officers.

NCGC Committee Report

The following NCGC Committee Report should not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any other document, including Hanmi
Financials filings under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except to the extent the Company specifically incorporates this Report into any such filing by reference.

The NCGC Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis required by Item 401(b) of Regulation S-K with
management and, based on such review and discussions, the NCGC Committee recommended to the Board of Directors of Hanmi Financial that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement.

Grants of Plan-Based Awards

There were no equity awards granted to Hanmi Financials Named Executive Officers during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End

The Company previously had the Year
2000 Stock Option Plan (the 2000 Plan). The Company currently has the 2007 Equity Compensation Plan (the 2007 Plan), which replaced the 2000 Plan. The 2007 Plan provides for grants of non-qualified and incentive stock
options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights and performance shares to non-employee directors, officers, employees and consultants of Hanmi Financial and its subsidiaries. The 2000 Plan provided for the grant of non-qualified and incentive
stock options. Although no future stock options may be granted under the 2000 Plan, certain employees, directors and officers of Hanmi Financial and its subsidiaries still hold options to purchase Hanmi Financial common stock under the 2000 Plan.

A key objective of the 2007 Plan is to provide more flexibility in the types of equity incentives that may be offered to employees,
consultants and non-employee directors. The 2007 Plan provides for several different types of equity awards in addition to stock options and restricted stock awards. Stock options granted under the 2007 Plan generally vest over a five-year period,
with 20 percent becoming exercisable 12 months following the grant date, and 20 percent thereafter on each anniversary of the grant date. All stock options are granted with a ten-year exercise term and have an exercise price equal to
the fair market value of Hanmi Financials common stock on the date of grant. Restricted stock granted under the 2007 Plan also generally vest over a five-year period, with 20 percent becoming unrestricted 12 months following the
grant date, and 20 percent thereafter on each anniversary of the grant date.

The 2007 Plan provides Hanmi Financial flexibility to
(i) attract and retain qualified non-employee directors, executives and other key employees and consultants with appropriate equity-based awards, (ii) motivate high levels of performance, (iii) recognize employee contributions to
Hanmi Financials success, and (iv) align the interests of plan participants with those of Hanmi Financials stockholders. In addition, the Board believes a robust equity compensation program is necessary to provide Hanmi Financial
with flexibility in negotiating strategic acquisitions and other business relationships to further expand and grow our business. The maximum number of shares of the Companys common stock that may be issued pursuant to options granted under the
2007 Plan is 375,000. Options for 191,080 shares were previously issued under the 2007 Plan and there are 143,325 outstanding options under the 2007 Plan as of December 31, 2011.

##### Table of Contents

Below is a description of the assumptions that were used in creating the table above. The descriptions
of the payments below are applicable only to the Chief Executive Officers potential payments upon termination.

Voluntary Termination

At any time after the commencement of employment, Mr. Yoo, our Chief Executive Officer, may terminate his employment agreement. If he voluntarily resigns, including in connection with death or a disability,
then he is entitled to receive no additional salary. The unvested portion of any outstanding stock option shall terminate immediately.

Without Cause Termination

Hanmi Financial may terminate Mr. Yoos
employment agreement without a showing of cause. If Hanmi Financial terminates Mr. Yoos employment agreement without cause, subject to regulatory approval and Mr. Yoos execution of an effective general
release of claims and his continuing compliance with the covenants set forth in his employment agreement, Mr. Yoo shall receive an amount equal to his base salary for six months. The unvested portion of any stock options and restrictive stock
shall terminate immediately.

Cause Termination

Hanmi Financial may terminate Mr. Yoos Employment Agreement for cause, which shall mean: (1) Mr. Yoo is negligent
in the performance of his material duties or engages in misconduct (i.e., the intentional or negligent violation of any state or federal banking law or regulation, or Hanmi Financials employment policies, including but not limited to policies
regarding honesty, conflict of interest, policies against discrimination, and/or employee leave policies); or (2) Mr. Yoo is convicted of or pleads guilty or nolo contendere to any felony, or is convicted of or pleads guilty or nolo
contendere to any misdemeanor involving moral turpitude; or (3) Hanmi Financial is required to remove or replace Mr. Yoo by formal order or formal or informal instruction, including a requested consent order or agreement, from the
Comptroller or Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or any other regulatory authority having jurisdiction; or (4) Mr. Yoo engages in any willful breach of duty during the course of his employment, or habitually neglects
his duties or has a continued incapacity to perform; or (5) Mr. Yoo fails to follow any written policy of the Board of Directors or any resolutions of the Board of Directors adopted at a duly called meeting intentionally and in a material
way; or (6) Mr. Yoo engages in any activity that materially adversely affects Hanmi Financials reputation in the community, provided, at the time of engaging in such activity, Mr. Yoo knew or should have known that such activity
would materially adversely affect Hanmi Financials reputation in the community; or (7) Hanmi Bank receives a Section 8(a) Order from the FDIC or a Section 8(b) Order from the FDIC; or (8) Hanmi Bank receives a cease or
desist order from the California Department of Financial Institutions that is attributable to the act or omission of Mr. Yoo in any material respect. In the event of a termination for good cause, as enumerated above, Mr. Yoo shall have no
right to any compensation not otherwise expressly provided for in the employment agreement.

Other Executives.

Hanmi Financial does not have an employment agreement with any other executives. Because other executives employment is at-will,
Hanmi Financial does not owe any compensation to other executives in the event of a termination of employment or a change in control of Hanmi Financial other than accrued salary and accrued vacation not used.

|ITEM 13. | CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
|-------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

Some of Hanmi Financials
Directors and executive officers and their immediate families, as well as the companies with which they are associated, are customers of, or have had banking transactions with, Hanmi Financial or Hanmi Bank in the ordinary course of Hanmi
Financials business, and Hanmi Financial expects to have banking transactions with such persons in the future. In managements opinion, all loans and commitments to lend included in such transactions were made in the ordinary course of
business, in compliance with applicable laws on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing for comparable transactions with other persons of similar creditworthiness and, in the opinion of management,
did not involve more than a normal risk of repayment or present other unfavorable features. There is no amount of indebtedness owed to Hanmi Financial or Hanmi Bank by the principal officers and current Directors of Hanmi Financial (including
associated companies) as of December 31, 2011.

In connection with the retirement of Won R. Yoon, Ki Tae Hong, and Chang Kyu
Park as Directors in 2008, Hanmi Financial and Hanmi Bank entered into severance agreements with each of them. Pursuant to such severance agreements, each of the retiring Directors will receive $3,000 per month until October 2013. Each of the
retiring Directors also will receive current health insurance coverage until October 2013 in which Hanmi Financial will continue to pay for medical, dental, and/or vision premiums.

In connection with the retirement of Richard Lee as a Director in 2009, he entered into severance
agreement with Hanmi Financial. Pursuant to the Severance Agreement, among other things, Mr. Lee received a lump-sum payment of $180,000 upon his retirement. Mr. Lee also will receive current health insurance coverage until March 2014 in
which Hanmi Financial will continue to pay for medical, dental, and/or vision premiums. See Director Compensation above.

Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions With Related Persons

Hanmi Financial has adopted a Related Person Transaction Policy (Policy). The Policy provides that executive officers, Directors, five-percent (5%) stockholders, and their family members, and
entities for which any of those persons serve as officers or partners or in which they have a ten percent (10%) or greater interest, must notify Hanmi Financials Corporate Secretary before entering into transactions or other arrangements
with Hanmi Financial or any of its affiliates (other than loans subject to Regulation O promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) if the amount exceeds $25,000. Hanmi Financials Corporate Secretary will determine
whether, under the guidelines in the Policy, the transaction or arrangement should be submitted to the Audit Committee for approval. In determining whether to submit proposed transactions to the Audit Committee for consideration, Hanmi
Financials Corporate Secretary will consider, among other things, the aggregate value of the proposed transaction, the benefits to Hanmi Financial of the proposed transaction, and whether the terms of the proposed transaction are comparable to
the terms available to an unrelated third party and employees generally. The Policy also includes provisions for the review and possible ratification of transactions and arrangements that are entered into without prior review under the Policy.
During 2011, neither Hanmi Financial nor any of its affiliates entered into any related-party transactions that required review, approval, or ratification under the Policy.

Director Independence

The Board of Directors has determined that all of its
Directors are independent under the applicable listing standards of NASDAQ, except for Jay S. Yoo, who also serves as the President and Chief Executive Officer of Hanmi Financial.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

The Audit Committee has established Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures for independent auditor services. Any proposed services not
pre-approved or exceeding pre-approved cost levels require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee may not delegate to management its responsibilities to pre-approve services performed by the independent auditors.

The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. In 2011 and 2010, the Audit Committee Chairman
was permitted to approve fees up to $25,000 with the requirement that any pre-approval decisions be reported to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

The only non-audit service provided by the independent auditors was the preparation of Hanmi Financials income tax return, which was 12.7 percent and 8.0 percent of the aggregate fees billed by KPMG for the
fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The Audit Committee pre-approved this work and the related fees.
