Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 19, 2012, The Home Savings and Loan Company of Youngstown, Ohio ("Home Savings"), a wholly owned subsidiary of United Community Financial Corp. ("UCFC"), and Navy Portfolio, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("NP LLC"), entered into an Asset Purchase and Interim Servicing Agreement (the "Agreement") for the bulk sale of assets from Home Savings to NP LLC and its affiliate.

Pursuant to the Agreement, Home Savings will be selling commercial and residential loans, most of which are secured by real estate, together with related other real estate owned (ORE) and servicing rights, to NP LLC and an affiliate of NP LLC. More specifically, the assets that constitute commercial loans will be sold to NP LLC, and the assets that constitute residential loans will be sold to the affiliate of NP LLC.

Total assets included in the bulk sale had an unpaid principal balance of $147.8 million as of the closing date (September 21, 2012), comprised of loans with an unpaid principal balance of $146.7 million and ORE with a principal balance of $1.1 million. The loans included in the bulk sale had a book balance as of the closing date of $113.7 million. Of these loans, $91.6 million were classified, $63.3 million were nonperforming and $53.0 million were noncurrent (all figures are book balance prior to the effect of any reserves).

Together with the ORE included in the sale, the net book balance of the assets included in the bulk sale totaled $106.8 million.
