                previously announced, Vineyard National Bancorp (the &#8220;Company&#8221;) entered into a
                stock purchase agreement (the &#8220;Purchase Agreement&#8221;), dated November 12, 2008,
                with Vineyard Bancshares, Inc., a newly formed Minnesota corporation
                (the
&#8220;Buyer&#8221;), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to the Buyer all
                of the
                outstanding shares of stock of the Company&#8217;s primary asset, Vineyard Bank,
                National Association (the &#8220;Bank&#8221;). On March 10, 2009, the Company entered into
                an amendment (the "Amendment") to the Purchase Agreement. The Amendment
                extends
                the date by which both parties can terminate the agreement for the
                failure to
                satisfy the financing condition to March 31, 2009. The Amendment
                also reduces
                the minimum amount of stockholders' equity and loan loss reserve
                required at the
                Bank as a condition to the Buyer's obligation to consummate the transaction.

Item
            1.01.  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As
                previously announced, Vineyard National Bancorp (the "Company") entered into a
                stock purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"), dated November 12, 2008,
                with Vineyard Bancshares, Inc., a newly formed Minnesota corporation
                (the
"Buyer"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to the Buyer all
                of the
                outstanding shares of stock of the Company's primary asset, Vineyard Bank,
                National Association (the "Bank"). On March 10, 2009, the Company entered into
                an amendment (the "Amendment") to the Purchase Agreement. The Amendment
                extends
                the date by which both parties can terminate the agreement for the
                failure to
                satisfy the financing condition to March 31, 2009. The Amendment
                also reduces
                the minimum amount of stockholders' equity and loan loss reserve
                required at the
                Bank as a condition to the Buyer's obligation to consummate the transaction.
                The
                Amendment is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form
                8-K and is
                incorporated herein by reference.
