Item 8.01 Other Events

On September 6, 2019, First Mid Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”) submitted a redemption notice to the trustee to redeem $10,000,000 of trust preferred securities of the First Mid-Illinois Statutory Trust I (“Trust I”), dated as of February 27, 2004. The trust preferred securities are being redeemed, along with $310,000 in common securities issued by Trust I and held by the Company, as a result of the concurrent redemption of 100% of the Company's junior subordinated debentures due 2034 and held by Trust I, which underlie the trust preferred securities. The redemption price for the junior subordinated debentures will be equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued interest, if any, up to, but not including, the redemption date. The proceeds from the redemption of the junior subordinated debentures will be simultaneously applied to redeem all of the outstanding common securities and the outstanding trust preferred securities at a price of 100% of the aggregate liquidation amount of the trust preferred securities plus accumulated but unpaid distributions up to but not including the redemption date. The redemption is pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of the underlying indenture and is expected to occur on October 7, 2019.
