Item 1.01  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
 
On June 29, 2012, River Valley Bancorp (the “Registrant”), Citizens Union Bancorp of Shelbyville, Inc. (“Citizens”), River Valley Financial Bank (“River”), and Dupont State Bank (“Dupont”) entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to its previously announced Reorganization Agreement among Registrant, Citizens, River and Dupont dated December 5, 2011, as previously amended on May 31, 2012 (the “Agreement”).  Under the Agreement, River Valley Financial Bank (“River”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Registrant, will merge (the “Merger”) with Dupont (“Dupont”), an Indiana commercial bank and wholly-owned subsidiary of Citizens.  The surviving entity which will be an Indiana commercial bank named River Valley Financial Bank, will be wholly owned by Registrant from and after the closing.
 
The Agreement had provided that any of the parties, for various reasons, could terminate the Agreement if the Merger had not closed (the “Closing”) by July 1, 2012.  The Indiana Department of Financial Institutions has approved the Merger, but the parties have not yet received the approvals of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the Merger transaction and associated charter flip of River.  There is a 15-day waiting period following such approvals before the parties can close the Merger.  As a result, the parties have agreed to extend the deadline for closing the Merger from July 1, 2012 to July 31, 2012.
 
In addition, Citizens has agreed to continue providing data processing services to Dupont under its master contract between the date of closing of the Merger and the date River’s data processor can complete its conversion of Dupont’s customers to River’s data processing system.  Those post-closing services are to be provided pursuant to a data processing agreement to be negotiated and agreed to by Citizens and Dupont.
 
A copy of the Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
 
Cautionary Statement
 
The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Agreement were made only for purposes of such Agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Agreement, and are subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures exchanged between the parties in connection with the execution of the Agreement.  The representations and warranties may have been made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors.  Investors are not third-party beneficiaries under the Agreement and should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of Registrant, or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates.  Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in Registrant’s public disclosures.
