Item 3.   
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
 
In aggregate, the PL Capital Group owns 287,762 shares of Common Stock of the Company acquired at an aggregate cost of $2,572,005.
 
The amount of funds expended by Financial Edge Fund to acquire the 151,610 shares of Common Stock it holds in its name is $1,323,865.  Such funds were provided from Financial Edge Fund’s available capital and from time to time from margin loans provided by BNP Paribas Prime Brokerage, Inc. (“BNP Paribas”).
 
The amount of funds expended by Financial Edge Strategic to acquire the 53,261 shares of Common Stock it holds in its name is $511,634.  Such funds were provided from Financial Edge Strategic’s available capital and from time to time from margin loans provided by BNP Paribas.
 
The amount of funds expended by Goodbody/PL LP to acquire the 53,453 shares of Common Stock it holds in its name is $572,829.  Such funds were provided from Goodbody/PL LP’s available capital and from time to time from margin loans provided by BNP Paribas.
 
The amount of funds expended by Focused Fund to acquire the 29,438 shares of Common Stock it holds in its name is $163,676.  Such funds were provided from Focused Fund’s available capital and from time to time from margin loans provided by BNP Paribas.
 
Any purchases of Common Stock made by members of the PL Capital Group using funds borrowed from BNP Paribas, if any, were made in margin transactions on that firm’s usual terms and conditions.  All or part of the shares of Common Stock owned by members of the PL Capital Group may from time to time be pledged with one or more banking institutions or brokerage firms as collateral for loans made by such entities to members of the PL Capital Group.  Such loans, if any, generally bear interest at a rate based upon the federal funds rate plus a margin.  Such indebtedness, if any, may be refinanced with other banks or broker-dealers.  As of the date of this filing no member of the PL Capital Group has margin or other loans outstanding secured by Common Stock.
 
Item 4.   
Purpose of Transaction
 
This is the PL Capital Group’s fourth amendment to this Schedule 13D filing.  The PL Capital Group owns 9.6% of the Company’s Common Stock, based upon the Company’s aggregate outstanding common shares as of November 8, 2012.  PL Capital Group’s intent is to monitor the performance of the Company and assert PL Capital Group’s stockholder rights.

The PL Capital Group acquired shares of Common Stock because it believes that the Common Stock is undervalued.  On March 25, 2013, the Common Stock closed at $9.05, which is approximately 77% of the Company’s December 31, 2012 tangible book value.  The PL Capital Group also believes that Ameriana has an attractive franchise in a state which has seen a number of banks acquired at attractive premiums to their market price (and their long term value as an independent entity).

 
 

 
CUSIP No. 023613102
Page 14 of 19 Pages

 
In connection with the PL Capital Group’s director nomination discussed below, on March 26, 2013, Ameriana and the PL Capital Group entered into a Standstill Agreement (the “Agreement”) pursuant to which the PL Capital Group withdrew its nomination and its nominee, Charles R. Haywood, was appointed as a director of the Company and Ameriana Bank.  A copy of the Agreement is attached as Exhibit 3 to this Amended Schedule 13D.  As noted above, pursuant to the Agreement, the Company and Ameriana Bank expanded their Boards of Directors by one member and appointed Charles R. Haywood as a director of both entities, to serve a three year term expiring in 2016.
 
On March 6, 2013 PL Capital principal Richard Lashley sent a letter on behalf of the Financial Edge Fund, notifying the Company that the Financial Edge Fund and the PL Capital Group intend to nominate Charles R. Haywood as a candidate for the board, in opposition to the Company’s candidate(s), at the Company’s 2013 annual meeting of shareholders.  A copy of the notice of intent to nominate is attached as Exhibit 2 to the Amended Schedule 13D filed on March 7, 2013.
 
The Reporting Persons may make further purchases of shares of Common Stock.  The Reporting Persons may dispose of any or all the shares of Common Stock held by them.
 
To the extent the actions described herein may be deemed to constitute influencing, or seeking to influence, the control of the Company for purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the regulations thereunder, the Reporting Persons have such a purpose.  Except as noted in this Amended Schedule 13D, no Reporting Person has any plans or proposals, which relate to, or would result in, any change in control of the Company or any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (b) through (j), inclusive of Item (4) of Schedule 13D.  Such individuals may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their positions and formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto.
 
Item 5.   
Interest in Securities of the Company
 
The percentages used in this Amended Schedule 13D are calculated based upon 2,988,952 outstanding shares of Common Stock.  This is the number of shares of Common Stock that the Company reported as outstanding as of November 8, 2012 in its most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 8, 2012.  The PL Capital Group’s transactions in the Common Stock within the past 60 days of the date of this filing are as follows:
