Item 5.04 Temporary Suspension of Trading Under Registrant’s Employee Benefit Plans.
Old National Bancorp (the “Company”) has notified participants in the First Midwest Bancorp, Inc. Savings and Profit Sharing Plan (the “First Midwest 401(k) Plan”) of an upcoming temporary blackout period (the “Blackout Period”). The Blackout Period is necessary to effectuate the merger of the First Midwest 401(k) Plan into the Old National Bancorp Employee Stock Ownership and Savings Plan (the “Old National 401(k) Plan”).
The Blackout Period will begin during the week of September 26, 2022 (and is currently scheduled to occur on September 28, 2022 at 3:00 p.m. CDT) and is expected to end during the week of October 16, 2022. During the Blackout Period, participants in the First Midwest 401(k) Plan will temporarily be unable to, among other things, change investment elections, transfer between investment alternatives, request a loan or distribution or check account balances. Current participants in the Old National 401(k) Plan will not be impacted.
In connection with the foregoing, on September 13, 2022, the Company sent a notice to its directors and executive officers (the “Notice”) informing them that, pursuant to Section 306 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and Rule 104 of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation BTR, they would be prohibited from purchasing or selling or otherwise acquiring or transferring directly or indirectly, any equity securities of the Company during the Blackout Period. A copy of the Notice is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
During the Blackout Period and for a period of two years after the ending date of the Blackout Period, a security holder or other interested person may obtain, without charge, information regarding the Blackout Period, including the actual beginning date and ending date of the Blackout Period, by contacting Nicholas J.
