PacWest Bancorp Chief Executive Matt Wagner said in a statement at the time the merger was first announced in April that his outfit had been eyeing the CU operation and that the companies were a good strategic match. “We have long admired the Southern California franchise the CU Bancorp team has built over the years,” Wagner said. “We are confident the partnership announced today will cre- ate value for both PacWest and CU Bancorp shareholders.” David Rainer, CU Bancorp’s chairman and chief execu- tive said in an April statement that his company believed that “merging with PacWest, one of the top-performing banks in the United States with demonstrated integration experience, provides the best path toward long-term value creation for our shareholders.” CU Bancorp’s financial advisor in the merger was Keefe Bruyette & Woods. Its legal counsel was Manatt Phelps & Philips. Barbara Polsky and Craig Miller, co-chairs of Manatt’s financial services practice, led CU Bancorp’s legal team. Sandler O’Neill & Partners served as PacWest’s finan- cial advisors while PacWest’s legal team was led by Patrick Brown of Sullivan & Cromwell’s Century City office.
