UNITED STATES FORM 8-K CURRENT REPORT Pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Check the appropriate box below if the Form 8-K filing is intended to simultaneously satisfy the
filing obligation of the registrant under any of the following provisions: Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of
Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers On July 9, 2008, the Board of Directors of MutualFirst Financial, Inc., a Maryland
corporation (the "Company"), appointed Charles J. Viater, Michael J. Marien, Jonathan E. Kintner
and Edward C. Levy as directors of the Company, to be effective upon completion of the Company's
acquisition of MFB Corp., an Indiana corporation ("MFB"). Messrs. Viater, Marien, Kintner and
Levy were also appointed as directors of the Company's subsidiary savings bank, Mutual Bank, to be
effective upon completion of the merger of MFB's subsidiary savings bank, MFB Financial, into
Mutual Bank. Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year In connection with the appointment of Messrs. Viater, Marien, Kintner and Levy as directors
of the Company, the Company's Board of Directors adopted a resolution electing to have the
Company be governed by Section 3-804(c) of the Maryland General Corporation Law. This
section provides that, notwithstanding any provision in the Company's charter or bylaws to the
contrary, in the case of any vacancy in the Company's Board of Directors that results from an
increase in the size of the Board or the death, resignation or removal of a director, (i) such
vacancy may be filled only by a majority of the remaining directors in office, even if less than a
quorum (which is consistent with the Company's charter and bylaws) and (ii) a director elected
to fill such vacancy shall hold office for the remainder of the full term of the class of directors in
which the vacancy occurred and until a successor is elected and qualified (in contrast to the
Company's charter and bylaws, which provide that such director serves only until the next annual
meeting of stockholders). The Board made this election in order to achieve a more equal balance
in the number of directors in each of the Board's three classes. A copy of the articles
supplementary to the Company's charter containing the resolution, as filed with the Department
of Assessments and Taxation of the State of Maryland on July 15, 2008, is attached to this report
as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits (d) Exhibits SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly
caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
