Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
On January 6, 2017 (the “Closing Date”), pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 28, 2016 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among First Midwest Bancorp, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“First Midwest”), Standard Bancshares, Inc., an Illinois corporation (“Standard”), and Benjamin Acquisition Corporation, an Illinois corporation (“Merger Sub”), Merger Sub merged with and into Standard, with Standard as the surviving entity (the “Merger”), and, on January 9, 2017, Standard merged with and into First Midwest, with First Midwest as the surviving entity (together with the Merger, the “Mergers”). As a result, First Midwest has acquired Standard Bank and Trust Company, an Illinois state chartered bank, as a wholly-owned subsidiary.
Under the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), holders of Standard’s voting common stock and non-voting common stock (other than shares held in treasury by Standard or otherwise owned by First Midwest or Standard) became entitled to receive, for each share of Standard voting common stock and non-voting common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, 0.435 of a share (the “Exchange Ratio”) of First Midwest common stock. Based on the number of shares of Standard voting common stock and non-voting common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, First Midwest is issuing 21,057,085 shares of First Midwest common stock in connection with the Merger.
At the Effective Time, each outstanding Standard stock settled right became redeemable at a redemption price per stock settled right equal to the amount by which the following clause (1) exceeds clause (2), where: (1) is the sum of (x) the product of the Exchange Ratio and $17.99 and (y) $0.97, which is equal to all cash dividends paid on a share of Standard common stock from February 22, 2013 until the Effective Time; and (2) is $7.18, which is equal to $4.65, accreting on a daily basis at a rate of 12% from February 22, 2013 until December 21, 2016, which was the latest of (A) three days after the date on which First Midwest received all required regulatory approvals, (B) the date Standard received all required approvals from its shareholders and (C) the date Standard otherwise satisfied or was capable of satisfying its conditions to closing the Merger.

At the Effective Time, each outstanding stock option (vested or unvested) to purchase shares of Standard common stock that was outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Effective Time was cancelled and terminated in exchange for the right to receive cash equal to the excess of (1) $10.81, which is equal to the product of the Exchange Ratio and the per share volume weighted average price of First Midwest common stock on the NASDAQ Stock Market for the 15 trading days immediately prior to the Closing Date over (2) the applicable exercise price per share of such outstanding Standard stock option.

The total amount of cash payable by First Midwest in connection with the Merger is $11.8 million, which is payment in respect of unpaid dividends to Standard shareholders, stock settled rights issued by Standard, and cash in lieu of fractional shares that Standard shareholders would have otherwise been entitled to receive, plus an additional $35.1 million in respect of the cancellation of the Standard stock options.

The foregoing description of the Merger and the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 of First Midwest’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 30, 2016, and is incorporated herein by reference.
