(Adds regulatory background, CEO comment, byline)
By Jonathan Stempel
NEW YORK, Sept 17 (Reuters) - EverBank Financial Corp on Monday said it canceled an agreement to buy much of NetBank Inc's (NTBK.PK: Quote, Profile, Research) assets because it had become clear the struggling Internet bank would be unable to close.
Privately held EverBank in May agreed to buy roughly $2.5 billion of consumer and brokerage deposits, as well as NetBank's business finance unit and other assets.
It was expected to close in early summer, but Jacksonville, Florida-based EverBank said "it became clear" that NetBank could not meet conditions required to close and to win regulatory approval. On July 1, EverBank did complete the purchase of NetBank's mortgage servicing portfolio.
The transaction followed a seven-month review that NetBank Chief Executive Steven Herbert on May 21 said was intended to help address regulatory concerns about NetBank's capital and insure NetBank's survival as an "independent going concern."
Alpharetta, Georgia-based NetBank had struggled with mounting operating losses amid a tough interest-rate environment and lower mortgage originations. In May, it set plans to close its third-party mortgage business. But it later said it was having trouble selling enough investments to close with EverBank.
It was not immediately clear what options NetBank still has for its remaining operations. The company did not immediately return a call seeking comment.
Dozens of mortgage-related companies have struggled this year with rising defaults and an unwillingness of investors to buy home loans they make.
Founded in 1996, NetBank struggled this decade as larger rivals beefed up their Web platforms, while offering and extending their branch banking networks.
Herbert said in May the "meltdown" afflicting subprime mortgage lenders spilled over into other areas of the mortgage market "and that really did not help our cause." He said EverBank "was the only partner that stepped up with a plan that the regulators were prepared to seriously consider."
NetBank shares have fallen about 99 percent from their 52-week high of $6.66 last October. They traded up 0.5 cents at 7.5 cents in afternoon trading on the Pink Sheets.

Nation’s Largest Direct Bank Acquires Deposits and Customers of the Nation’s Oldest Direct Bank September 28, 2007, Wilmington, DE –
ING DIRECT, the nation’s largest direct bank and fourth largest thrift (part of Netherlands-based ING Groep NYSE: ING), today announced it will acquire $1.4 billion in deposits and 104,000 new customers of Netbank for $14 million.
Headquartered in Alpharetta, GA and established in 1996, Netbank was the nation’s oldest Internet bank serving retail and business customers in all 50 states.
The acquisition further strengthens ING DIRECT’s position as the leading direct bank which aims to meet the financial needs of “Main Street, USA.” “ING DIRECT has a passionate focus on delivering a first-rate, technology-enhanced customer experience and we want to ensure the early adopters remain at the forefront of branch-free online banking,” stated Arkadi Kuhlmann, CEO of ING DIRECT. “The acquisition of Netbank’s customer relationships is part of ING DIRECT’s goal to broaden its reach and inspire Americans to become a nation of savers. We anticipate a seamless transition for Netbank’s customers into the ING DIRECT family,” added Arkadi.
Since its inception in 2000, more than 5.5 million Americans have entrusted their savings with ING DIRECT, building the bank to $57 billion in deposits, $23 billion in mortgage loans and $75 billion in assets.
The transaction was approved and closed today by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).
WASHINGTON - NetBank Inc., an online bank with $2.5 billion in assets, was shut down by the government on Friday because of an excessive level of mortgage defaults.
It was the largest savings and loan failure since the tail end of the industry's crisis more than 14 years ago. Federal regulators appointed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. as a receiver for Alpharetta, Ga.-based NetBank.
Customers with less than $100,000 deposited with NetBank will be protected by FDIC insurance.While dozens of mortgage companies have closed due to soaring defaults of home loans made to borrowers with weak, or subprime, credit, those problems previously had occurred among non-bank lenders such as New Century Financial Corp. NetBank, in contrast, is federally regulated.
Loose mortgage standards in recent years — especially among lenders catering to subprime borrowers — have resulted in a spike in home loan defaults.
Bert Ely, a banking consultant based in Alexandria, Va., said NetBank was in "deep trouble" before the subprime mortgage market's woes accelerated this year. Regulators, he said, "should have closed it a long time ago."
While some Internet-only banks are successful, he said, operating one without retail branches can be a difficult strategy to maintain.
ING assumes insured deposits
The FDIC said Friday that $1.5 billion of NetBank's insured deposits will be assumed by ING Bank, also a major online bank that is part of Dutch financial giant ING Groep NV. ING will pay $14 million for the deposits and receive 104,000 new customers.NetBank, which had no physical branches, sustained significant losses last year "primarily due to early payment defaults on loans sold, weak underwriting, poor documentation, a lack of proper controls, and failed business strategies," the Office of Thrift Supervision said in a statement.
The FDIC said NetBank had $2.5 billion in total assets and $2.3 billion in deposits as of June 30.NetBank had reached a deal to sell its deposit accounts and other assets to privately held EverBank of Jacksonville, Fla., but EverBank announced this month that the deal fell through.
EverBank in July completed its acquisition of NetBank's mortgage servicing business, and the FDIC said Friday that EverBank will purchase about $700 million in mortgage loans.http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21039715/
