ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS.

     The annual meeting of shareholders for 2014 of Midwest Holding Inc. (the “Company”) was scheduled to be held on Tuesday, June 10, 2014 (the “Meeting”), at 10:00 a.m. Central Daylight Time.

     At least a majority of the Company’s common stock outstanding on the record date for the Meeting was required to be represented at the Meeting, either in person or by proxy, in order to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Meeting. A quorum was not in attendance at the scheduled time of the Meeting and, therefore, the Company adjourned the Meeting. At the Meeting, in accordance with the bylaws of the Company and Nebraska corporate law, the Company announced that the Meeting would be reconvened at the Company’s offices, 2900 South 70th Street, Suite 400, Lincoln, Nebraska 68506, on Monday, June 30, 2014, at 10:00 a.m. Central Daylight Time.

     During the period of the adjournment, the Company will continue to solicit proxies from its stockholders. Stockholders who have already voted need not take any action, although they may change their vote by executing a new proxy, revoking a previously given proxy, or attending the Meeting when it reconvenes on June 30, 2014 and voting in person. Stockholders who have not yet voted or wish to change their votes, may vote by mail or through the Internet using the instructions provided in the proxy materials previously sent to them by the Company.

     No changes have been made in the proposals to be voted on by stockholders at the Meeting. There have been no changes in the Company's proxy statement dated April 30, 2014.
