Item 1.  Security and Issuer

All the filers of this statement are collectively referred to herein as the "Group."

This statement relates to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock"), of First Financial Northwest, Inc. (the "Company").  The address of the principal executive offices of the Company is 201 Wells Avenue South, Renton, Washington 98057.  The amended joint filing agreement of the members of the Group is attached as Exhibit 2 to the First Amendment.

CUSIP No. 32022K102

SCHEDULE 13D

Page 13 of 28

 

(d)  During the past five years, no member of the Group has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).

(e)  During the past five years, no member of the Group has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and, as a result of such proceeding, was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, Federal or State securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

(f)  Joseph Stilwell is a citizen of the United States.

Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Since the filing of the Second Amendment, no funds have been expended to acquire additional shares of Common Stock.

All purchases of shares of Common Stock made by the Group using funds borrowed from Fidelity Brokerage Services LLC or Morgan Stanley, if any, were made in margin transactions on their usual terms and conditions.  All or part of the shares of Common Stock owned by members of the Group may from time to time be pledged with one or more banking institutions or brokerage firms as collateral for loans made by such entities to members of the Group.  Such loans generally bear interest at a rate based on the broker's call rate from time to time in effect.  Such indebtedness, if any, may be refinanced with other banks or broker-dealers.

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction

            We had hoped to work with the Company's management and Board of Directors (the "Board") to maximize shareholder value.  We expect aggressive action by the Company to de-risk its business and to reduce non-performing assets.  We also insist that the Company continue deleveraging.  We want management and the Board to pay dividends to shareholders and repurchase shares of outstanding Common Stock with excess capital when permitted by applicable regulations and regulatory commitments

We are filing this Third Amendment to announce that on February 15, 2012, our General Counsel, Spencer L. Schneider, resigned as a member of the Company's Board.  Having seen firsthand senior management and the directors over the past five weeks, we believe that, collectively, they are irredeemable.  Consequently, we believe we can better maximize shareholder value by running a contested election for board seats at the upcoming annual meeting, which we intend to do.

On January 11, 2012 Mr. Schneider became a member of the Company's Board.  As noted above, Mr. Schneider tendered his resignation today.

THIS THIRD AMENDMENT MAY BE DEEMED TO BE SOLICITATION MATERIAL IN RESPECT OF THE SOLICITATION OF PROXIES BY THE GROUP FROM THE COMPANY'S SHAREHOLDERS IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMPANY'S 2012 ANNUAL MEETING.  SECURITY HOLDERS ARE ADVISED TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT AND OTHER DOCUMENTS RELATING TO THE SOLICITATION OF PROXIES BY JOSEPH STILWELL AND OTHER PARTICIPANTS FROM THE COMPANY'S SHAREHOLDERS FOR USE AT THE COMPANY'S 2012 ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION, INCLUDING INFORMATION RELATING TO THE PARTICIPANTS IN SUCH PROXY SOLICITATION.  WHEN COMPLETED, A DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT AND A FORM OF PROXY WILL BE MAILED TO SHAREHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY AND WILL ALSO BE AVAILABLE AT NO CHARGE AT THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION'S WEBSITE AT HTTP://WWW.SEC.GOV.

 

Since 2000, affiliates of the Group have filed Schedule 13Ds to report greater than five percent positions in 37 other publicly traded companies.  For simplicity, these affiliates are referred to as the "Group", "we", "us", or "our."  In each instance, our purpose has been to profit from the appreciation in the market price of the shares we held by asserting shareholder rights.  In each situation, we believed that the values of the companies' assets were not adequately reflected in the market prices of their shares.  The filings are described below.

On May 1, 2000, we filed a Schedule 13D to report a position in Security of Pennsylvania Financial Corp. ("SPN").  We scheduled a meeting with senior management to discuss ways to maximize the value of SPN's assets.  On June 2, 2000, prior to the scheduled meeting, SPN and Northeast Pennsylvania Financial Corp. announced SPN's acquisition.  We then sold our shares on the open market.

On July 7, 2000, we filed a Schedule 13D to report a position in Cameron Financial Corporation ("Cameron").  We exercised our shareholder rights by, among other things, requesting that Cameron management hire an investment banker, demanding Cameron's list of shareholders, meeting with Cameron's management, demanding that Cameron invite our representatives to join the board, writing to other Cameron shareholders to express our dismay with management's inability to maximize shareholder value and publishing that letter in the local press.  On October 6, 2000, Cameron announced its sale to Dickinson Financial Corp., and we sold our shares on the open market.

On January 4, 2001, following the announcement by Community Financial Corp. ("CFIC") of the sale of two of its four subsidiary banks and its intention to sell one or more of its remaining subsidiaries, we filed a Schedule 13D to report our position.  We reported that we acquired CFIC stock for investment purposes.  On January 25, 2001, CFIC announced the sale of one of its remaining subsidiaries.  We then announced our intention to run an alternate slate of directors at the 2001 annual meeting if CFIC did not sell the remaining subsidiary by then.  On March 27, 2001, we wrote to CFIC confirming that CFIC had agreed to meet with one of our proposed nominees to the board.  On March 30, 2001, before our meeting took place, CFIC announced its merger with First Financial Corporation, and we sold our shares on the open market.

On February 23, 2001, we filed a Schedule 13D to report a position in Montgomery Financial Corporation ("Montgomery").  On April 20, 2001, we met with Montgomery's management, and suggested that they maximize shareholder value by selling the institution.  We also informed management that we would run an alternate slate of directors at the 2001 annual meeting unless Montgomery were sold.  Eleven days after we filed our Schedule 13D, however, Montgomery's board amended its bylaws to make it more difficult for us to run an alternate slate by limiting the pool of potential nominees to local persons with a banking relation and shortening the deadline to nominate an alternate slate.  We located qualified nominees under the restrictive bylaw provisions and noticed our slate within the deadline.  On June 5, 2001, Montgomery announced that it had hired a banker to explore a sale.  On July 24, 2001, Montgomery announced its merger with Union Community Bancorp.

On June 14, 2001, we filed a Schedule 13D reporting a position in HCB Bancshares, Inc. ("HCBB").  On September 4, 2001, we reported that we had entered into a standstill agreement with HCBB, under which HCBB agreed to: (a) add a director selected by us, (b) consider conducting a Dutch tender auction, (c) institute annual financial targets, and (d) retain an investment banker to explore alternatives if it did not achieve the financial targets.  On October 22, 2001, our nominee, John G. Rich, Esq., was named to the board.  On January 31, 2002, HCBB announced a modified Dutch tender auction to repurchase 20% of its shares.  Although HCBB's outstanding share count decreased by 33% between the filing of our original Schedule 13D and August 2003, HCBB did not achieve the financial target.  On August 12, 2003, HCBB announced it had hired a banker to assist in exploring alternatives for maximizing shareholder value, including a sale.  On January 14, 2004, HCBB announced its sale to Rock Bancshares Inc. and we sold our shares on the open market.

On December 15, 2000, we filed a Schedule 13D reporting a position in Oregon Trail Financial Corp. ("OTFC").  In January 2001, we met with the management of OTFC to discuss our concerns that management was not maximizing shareholder value, and we proposed that OTFC voluntarily place our nominees on the board.  OTFC rejected our proposal, and we announced our intention to solicit proxies to elect a board nominee.  We demanded OTFC's shareholder list, but it refused.  We sued OTFC in Baker County, Oregon, and the court ruled in our favor and sanctioned it.  We also sued two OTFC directors alleging that one had violated OTFC's residency requirement and that the other had committed perjury.  Both suits were dismissed pre-trial but we filed an appeal in one suit and were permitted to re-file the other suit in state court.  On August 16, 2001, we started soliciting proxies to elect Kevin D. Padrick, Esq. to the board.  We argued in our proxy materials that OTFC should have repurchased its shares at prices below book value.  OTFC announced the hiring of an investment banker.  Then, the day after the 9/11 attacks, OTFC sued us in Portland, Oregon and moved to invalidate our proxies; the court denied the motion and the election proceeded.

On October 12, 2001, OTFC's shareholders elected our candidate by a 2-1 margin.  In the five months after the filing of our first proxy statement (i.e., from August 1, 2001 through December 31, 2001), OTFC repurchased approximately 15% of its shares.  On March 12, 2002, we entered into a standstill agreement with OTFC.  OTFC agreed to: (a) achieve annual targets for return on equity, (b) reduce their current capital ratio, (c) obtain advice from an investment banker regarding annual 10% stock repurchases, (d) re-elect our director to the board, (e) reimburse a portion of our expenses, and (f) withdraw their lawsuit.  On February 24, 2003, OTFC and FirstBank NW Corp. announced their merger, and we sold substantially all of our shares on the open market.

On November 25, 2002, we filed a Schedule 13D reporting a position in American Physicians Capital, Inc. ("ACAP").  The Schedule 13D disclosed that on January 18, 2002, Michigan's insurance department had approved our request to solicit proxies to elect two directors to ACAP's board.  On January 29, 2002, we noticed our intention to nominate two directors at the 2002 annual meeting.  On February 20, 2002, we entered into a three-year standstill agreement with ACAP, providing for ACAP to add our nominee, Spencer L. Schneider, Esq., to its board.  ACAP also agreed to consider using a portion of its excess capital to repurchase ACAP's shares in each of the fiscal years 2002 and 2003 so that its outstanding share count would decrease by 15% for each of those years.  In its 2002 fiscal year, ACAP repurchased 15% of its outstanding shares; these repurchases were highly accretive to per-share book value.  On November 6, 2003, ACAP announced a reserve charge and that it would explore options to maximize shareholder value.  It also announced that it would exit the healthcare and workers' compensation insurance businesses.  ACAP then announced that it had retained Sandler O'Neill & Partners, L.P., to assist the board.  On December 2, 2003, ACAP announced the early retirement of its President and CEO.  On December 23, 2003, ACAP named R. Kevin Clinton its new President and CEO.  On June 24, 2004, ACAP announced that it had decided that the best means to maximize shareholder value would be to shed non-core businesses and focus on its core business line in its core markets.  We increased our holdings in ACAP, and we announced that we intended to seek additional board representation.  On November 10, 2004, ACAP invited Mr. Stilwell to sit on the board, and we entered into a new standstill agreement.  This agreement was terminated in November 2007, with our nominees remaining on ACAP's board.  On May 8, 2008, our nominees were re-elected to three-year terms expiring in 2011.  On passage of federal healthcare legislation in 2010, ACAP became concerned about the fundamentals of its business and promptly acted to assess its strategic alternatives.  On October 22, 2010, ACAP was acquired by The Doctors Company.

On June 30, 2003, we filed a Schedule 13D reporting a position in FPIC Insurance Group, Inc. ("FPIC").  On August 12, 2003, Florida's insurance department approved our request to hold more than 5% of FPIC's shares, to solicit proxies to hold board seats, and to exercise shareholder rights.  On November 10, 2003, FPIC invited our nominee, John G. Rich, Esq., to join the board and we signed a confidentiality agreement.  On June 7, 2004, we disclosed that because FPIC's management had taken steps to increase shareholder value and because its market price increased and reflected fair value in our estimation, we sold our shares on the open market, decreasing our holdings below five percent.  Our nominee was invited to remain on the board after we sold our stake.

On March 29, 2004, we filed a Schedule 13D reporting a position in Community Bancshares, Inc. ("COMB").  We disclosed our intention to meet with COMB's management and evaluate management's progress in resolving its regulatory issues, lawsuits, problem loans, and non-performing assets, and that we would likely support management if it effectively addressed COMB's challenges.  On November 21, 2005, we amended our Schedule 13D and stated that although we believed that COMB's management had made good progress, COMB's return on equity would likely remain below average for the foreseeable future, and it should therefore be sold.  On November 21, 2005, we also stated that if COMB did not announce a sale before our deadline to solicit proxies for the next annual meeting, we would solicit proxies to elect our own slate.  On January 6, 2006, we disclosed the names of our three board nominees.  On May 1, 2006, COMB announced its sale to The Banc Corporation, and we sold our shares on the open market.

SCHEDULE 13D

On June 20, 2005, we filed a Schedule 13D reporting a position in Prudential Bancorp, Inc. of Pennsylvania ("PBIP").  Most of PBIP's shares are held by the Prudential Mutual Holding Company (the "MHC"), which is controlled by PBIP's board.  The MHC controls most corporate decisions coming up for a shareholder vote, such as the election of directors.  But regulations promulgated by the FDIC previously barred the MHC from voting on PBIP's management stock benefit plans, and PBIP's IPO prospectus indicated that the MHC would not vote on the plans.  We announced in August 2005 that we would solicit proxies to oppose adoption of the plans as a referendum to place Mr. Stilwell on the board.  PBIP decided not to put the plans up for a vote at the 2006 annual meeting.

In December 2005, we solicited proxies to withhold votes on the election of directors as a referendum to place Mr. Stilwell on the board.  At the 2006 annual meeting, 71% of PBIP's voting public shares were withheld from voting on management's nominees.

On April 6, 2006, PBIP announced that just after we had filed our Schedule 13D, it had secretly solicited a letter from an FDIC staffer (which it concealed from the public) that the MHC would be allowed to vote in favor of the plans.  PBIP also announced a special meeting to vote on the plans.  We alerted the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Fed") about this announcement, and PBIP was directed to seek Fed approval before adopting the plans.  On April 19, 2006, PBIP postponed the special meeting.  The Fed subsequently followed the FDIC's position in September 2006.  In December 2006, we solicited proxies to withhold votes on the election of PBIP's directors at the 2007 annual meeting.  At the meeting, 75% of PBIP's voting public shares were withheld.  Also during the annual meeting, PBIP's President and Chief Executive Officer, in response to a question posed by Mr. Stilwell, was unable to state the meaning of per share return on equity.  On March 7, 2007, we disclosed that we were publicizing the results of PBIP's elections and its directors' unwillingness to hold a democratic vote on the stock plans by placing billboard advertisements throughout Philadelphia.

In December 2007, we filed proxy materials for the solicitation of proxies to withhold votes on the election of PBIP's directors at the 2008 annual meeting of shareholders.  At the February 4, 2008 annual meeting, an average of 77% of PBIP's voting public shares withheld their votes.  Excluding shares held in PBIP's ESOP, an average of 88% of the voting public shares withheld their votes in this election.

On October 4, 2006, we sued PBIP, the MHC, and the directors of PBIP and the MHC in federal court in Philadelphia seeking an order to prevent the MHC from voting in favor of the plans.  On August 15, 2007, the court dismissed some claims, but sustained our cause of action against the MHC as majority shareholder of PBIP for breach of fiduciary duties.  Discovery proceeded and all the directors were deposed.  Both sides moved for summary judgment, but the court ordered the case to trial which was scheduled for June 2008.  On May 22, 2008, we voluntarily discontinued the lawsuit after determining that it would be more effective and appropriate to pursue the directors on a personal basis in a derivative action.  On June 11, 2008, we filed a notice to appeal certain portions of the lower court's August 15, 2007 order dismissing portions of the lawsuit.

We entered into a settlement agreement and an expense agreement with PBIP in November 2008 under which we agreed to support PBIP's stock benefit plans, drop our litigation and withdraw our shareholder demand, and generally support management, and, in exchange, PBIP agreed, subject to certain conditions, to repurchase up to 3 million of its shares (including shares previously purchased), reimburse a portion of our expenses, and either adopt a second step conversion or add our nominee who meets certain qualification requirements to its board if the repurchases were not completed by a specified time.

On March 5, 2010, we reported that our ownership in PBIP had dropped below 5 percent as a result of open market sales and sales of common stock to PBIP.

On January 19, 2006, we filed a Schedule 13D reporting a position in SCPIE Holdings Inc. ("SKP").  We announced we would run our slate of directors at the 2006 annual meeting and demanded SKP's shareholder list.  SKP initially refused to timely produce the list, but did so after we sued it in Delaware Chancery Court.  We engaged in a proxy contest at the 2006 annual meeting, but SKP's directors were elected.  On December 14, 2006, SKP agreed to place Mr. Stilwell on the board.  On October 16, 2007, Mr. Stilwell resigned from SKP's board after it approved a sale of SKP that Mr. Stilwell believed was an inferior offer.  We solicited shareholder proxies in opposition to the proposed sale; however, the sale was approved.

On July 27, 2006, we filed a Schedule 13D reporting a position in Roma Financial Corp. ("ROMA").  Nearly 70% of ROMA's shares are held by a mutual holding company (like NECB, PBIP, WMPN, and MLVF) controlled by ROMA's board.  In April 2007, we engaged in a proxy solicitation at ROMA's first annual meeting, urging shareholders to withhold their vote from management's slate.  ROMA did not put their stock benefit plans up for a vote at that meeting.  We then met with ROMA management.  In the four months after ROMA became eligible to repurchase its shares, it promptly announced and substantially completed repurchases of 15% of its publicly held shares, which were accretive to shareholder value.  In our judgment, management came to understand the importance of proper capital allocation.  Based on ROMA management's prompt implementation of shareholder-friendly capital allocation plans, we supported management's adoption of stock benefit plans at the 2008 shareholder meeting, and we sold our shares in the open market.

On November 5, 2007, we filed a Schedule 13D reporting a position in NorthEast Community Bancorp, Inc. ("NECB").  A majority of NECB's shares are held by a mutual holding company (like PBIP, ROMA, WMPN, and MLVF) controlled by NECB's board. We presented a model stock benefit plan to management that we would support based on a vesting schedule that more closely aligns management's interests to shareholder returns. NECB’s management responded to the proposal with a form letter. On July 1, 2010, we delivered a written demand to NECB demanding to inspect its shareholder list.  On July 22, 2010, NECB announced its first ever share repurchase plan. NECB, however, refused to supply us with the shareholder list.  Therefore, on July 23, 2010, we sued NECB in federal court in New York seeking an order compelling compliance.  On August 31, 2010, NECB produced the list of shareholders to us and we dismissed the lawsuit. We have written to shareholders expressing our belief that NECB’s directors have not properly overseen management.  On October 3, 2011, we sent a letter to NECB’s board of directors demanding that NECB expand the board with disinterested directors to consider a second step conversion.  On November 2, 2011, we filed a lawsuit against NECB's board of directors, personally and derivatively, for abuse of a federal bank charter to perpetuate nepotism.  On November 16, 2011, we sent a letter to the Securities and Exchange Commission arguing that Part II, Item 1 of NECB's Form 10-Q, filed on November 14, 2011, is misleading in regards to our lawsuit.

On May 23, 2008, we filed a Schedule 13D reporting a position in William Penn Bancorp, Inc. ("WMPN").  A majority of WMPN's shares are held by a mutual holding company (like PBIP, ROMA, NECB, and MLVF) controlled by WMPN's board.  We hope to work with management in maximizing shareholder value.  We provided a PowerPoint presentation to management regarding our views on capital allocation.

On May 30, 2008, we filed a Schedule 13D reporting a position in Malvern Federal Bancorp, Inc. ("MLVF").  A majority of MLVF's shares are currently held by a mutual holding company (like PBIP, NECB, ROMA, and WMPN) controlled by MLVF's board.  We hope to work with management in maximizing shareholder value.  On October 26, 2010, we mailed a letter to MLVF demanding that it pursue a derivative action against its directors for breach of their fiduciary duties.  MLVF failed to pursue the action and, on June 3, 2011, we sued MLVF's directors demanding that the court, among other things, order the directors to properly consider pursuing a second step conversion.  On November 9, 2011, The Honorable Judge Howard F. Riley, Jr., overruled the director defendants' preliminary objections to the derivative lawsuit.   On January 17, 2012, MLVF announced its intention to undertake a second step conversion and we since have withdrawn the lawsuit.

On November 7, 2008, we filed a Schedule 13D reporting a position in Kingsway Financial Services Inc. ("KFS").  We requested a meeting with its CEO and chairman to discuss ways to maximize shareholder value and minimize both operational and balance sheet risks, but the CEO was unresponsive.  We then requisitioned a special shareholder meeting to remove the CEO and chairman from the KFS board and replace them with our two nominees.  On January 7, 2009, we entered into a settlement agreement with KFS whereby, among other things, the CEO resigned from the KFS board and KFS expanded its board from nine to ten seats and appointed our nominees to fill the two vacant seats on the board.  By April 23, 2009, the board was reconstituted with just three of the original ten legacy directors remaining. Also, Joseph Stilwell was appointed to fill the vacancy created by the resignation of one of our nominees, Larry G. Swets, Jr., and our other nominee, Spencer L. Schneider, was elected chairman of the board.  In addition, the CEO and CFO were fired for incompetence and insubordination. By November 3, 2009, all of the legacy directors had resigned from the board.  On May 27, 2010, Mr. Stilwell and Mr. Schneider were re-elected to the board. On June 1, 2010, Mr. Swets was appointed CEO.  During the time the Group has had board representation, KFS has sold non-core assets, repurchased public debt at a discount to face value, sold a credit-sensitive asset, disposed of its subsidiary Lincoln General, substantially reduced its expenses, and reduced other balance sheet and operations risks.

On December 29, 2008, we filed a Schedule 13D reporting a position in First Savings Financial Group, Inc. ("FSFG").  We met with management in New York.  FSFG announced a stock repurchase plan and began repurchasing its shares.  In December 2009, we reported that our beneficial ownership in the outstanding FSFG common stock had fallen below 5 percent.

On March 12, 2009, we filed a Schedule 13D reporting a position in Alliance Bancorp, Inc. of Pennsylvania ("ALLB").  When we announced our reporting position, a majority of ALLB's shares were held by a mutual holding company (like NECB, PBIP, ROMA, WMPN, and MLVF) controlled by ALLB's board. However, on August 11, 2010, ALLB announced its intention to undertake a second step offering, selling all shares to the public.  The plan of conversion and reorganization was approved by depositors at a special meeting held December 29, 2010.  We strongly supported ALLB’s action.  Following completion of the conversion of Alliance Bank from the mutual holding company structure to the stock holding company structure, we increased our stake with the belief that shareholders and ALLB will do well if management focuses on profitability.
