        18, 2007, State Bancorp, Inc. (the &#8220;Company&#8221;) was served with a Summons and

        the

        alleges, among other things, (1) that the defendant directors and officers
        breached their fiduciary duty to the Company in connection with the Company&#8217;s
        previously disclosed dealings with Island Mortgage Network, Inc. and the
        resulting litigation in the United States District Court for the Eastern
        District of New York (the &#8220;IMN Matter&#8221;) and (2) that the directors engaged in
        corporate waste by awarding bonuses to certain officers who participated in
        the
        IMN Matter and offering a voluntary exit window program to certain officers
        who
        participated in the IMN Matter, each of which have been previously disclosed
        by

  Item
        8.01                      Other
        Events
  On
        July
        18, 2007, State Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") was served with a Summons and
        Complaint in a shareholder derivative lawsuit, filed in the Supreme Court of
        the
        State of New York, County of Nassau (Index No. 07-012411) by persons identifying
        themselves as shareholders of the Company and purporting to act on behalf of
        the
        Company, naming the Company as a nominal defendant and certain of the Company's
        current and former directors and officers as defendants.  The lawsuit
        alleges, among other things, (1) that the defendant directors and officers
        breached their fiduciary duty to the Company in connection with the Company's
        previously disclosed dealings with Island Mortgage Network, Inc. and the
        resulting litigation in the United States District Court for the Eastern
        District of New York (the "IMN Matter") and (2) that the directors engaged in
        corporate waste by awarding bonuses to certain officers who participated in
        the
        IMN Matter and offering a voluntary exit window program to certain officers
        who
        participated in the IMN Matter, each of which have been previously disclosed
        by
        the Company.
