ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS

On August 25, 2010, Capitol Federal Financial (the “Company”) announced that its stockholders and the members of Capitol Federal Savings Bank MHC (depositors and certain borrowers of Capitol Federal Savings Bank) have each approved the plan of conversion and reorganization pursuant to which Capitol Federal Savings Bank MHC will convert to the stock holding company form of organization and the contribution to the charitable foundation.
 
The Company also announced that it intends to seek an extension of time from the Office of Thrift Supervision to complete the stock offering being conducted by Capitol Federal Financial, Inc. in connection with the Company’s conversion from the mutual holding company to the stock holding company form of organization and will obtain an updated independent appraisal of the common stock due to the general decrease in the prices of stocks of financial institutions since the commencement of the offering.
