Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 27, 2007, Prosperity Bancshares, Inc., a Texas corporation (“Prosperity”), Prosperity Bank, a Texas banking association and wholly-owned subsidiary of Prosperity (“Prosperity Bank”), and The Bank of Navasota, N.A., a national banking association located in Navasota, Texas (the “Bank”), entered into the First Amendment to Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Amendment”), which amends certain provisions of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated May 1, 2007 (the “Agreement”), pursuant to which the Bank will merge with and into Prosperity Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Prosperity, with Prosperity Bank as the surviving entity.

The Amendment revises the terms of the Agreement to more accurately reflect the understanding of the parties by correcting the calculation of the minimum and maximum values of the merger consideration to be paid to Bank shareholders and increasing the Bank’s minimum allowance for loan losses from 1.3% to 2.0%.

The foregoing summary of the Amendment is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of such document, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and which is incorporated herein by reference.
