Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On September 2, 2011, the Human Resources Committee and the Board of Directors of BankFinancial Corporation (the “Company”) approved a one year extension of stock options granted in prior years that are scheduled to expire in September and December of 2011.
