Item 2.01

Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

Effective October 5, 2018, Coastway Bancorp, Inc. ("Coastway"), a Maryland corporation, completed its previously announced merger with HarborOne Bancorp, Inc. ("HarborOne"), a Massachusetts corporation, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, by and among HarborOne, Massachusetts Acquisitions, LLC and Coastway, dated as of March 14, 2018 (the "Merger Agreement").

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Coastway's stockholders are entitled to receive, in exchange for each share of Coastway common stock that they own, $28.25 in cash (the "Merger Consideration"). Each option to purchase Coastway common stock, whether vested or unvested, automatically converted to the right to receive a cash payment equal to (i) the number of shares of Coastway common stock provided for in such option and (ii) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price per share of Coastway common stock provided for in such option, which cash payment shall be made without interest and shall be net of all applicable withholding taxes. Additionally, all Coastway restricted stock awards vested in full and were considered outstanding shares of Coastway common stock, for the purposes of receiving the Merger Consideration. The Merger Consideration totals approximately $125.6 million.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and the mergers do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 2.1 to Coastway's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 15, 2018.

Item 3.01

Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

As a result of the mergers and subsequent dissolution, Coastway no longer fulfills the listing requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq"). On October 5, 2018, Coastway notified Nasdaq that trading in Coastway common stock should be suspended and the listing of Coastway common stock should be removed, in each case following the closing of the market on October 5, 2018. Nasdaq has filed a notification of removal from listing of Coastway common stock on Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to deregister Coastway's common stock under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. HarborOne, as successor to Coastway, intends to file a Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to suspend Coastway's reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
