Item 8.01 — Other Events

Effective July 20, 2007, the bank operations of the two Vision Bank subsidiaries of Park National Corporation (“Park”) — Vision Bank, an Alabama state-chartered bank with its main office in Gulf Shores, Alabama (“Vision Alabama”) and Vision Bank, a Florida state-chartered bank with its main office in Panama City, Florida (“Vision Florida”) — were consolidated under a single charter through the merger (the “Vision Bank Merger”) of Vision Alabama with and into Vision Florida, under the charter of Vision Florida. The resulting financial institution is a Florida state-chartered bank operating under the name “Vision Bank” and its main office is located at 2200 Stanford Road, Panama City, Florida 32405. The seven branch locations of Vision Alabama immediately prior to the Vision Bank Merger become branch locations of Vision Florida. There were no changes with respect to the eight branch locations of Vision Florida as a result of the Vision Bank Merger.
