Introductory Note

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed in connection with the closing on June 4, 2018 of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 17, 2018 (the “Merger Agreement”), among CNB Bank Shares, Inc., an Illinois corporation (“CNB”), Jacksonville Bancorp, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Jacksonville Bancorp”), and CNB Acquisition, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Merger Sub”). Merger Sub merged with and into Jacksonville Bancorp, with Jacksonville Bancorp as the surviving entity, effective as of 6:00 p.m., eastern time, on June 4, 2018 (the “Effective Time”).

 

Item 2.01Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

On June 4, 2018, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into Jacksonville Bancorp, with Jacksonville Bancorp as the surviving entity (the “Merger”). Following the Merger, Jacksonville Bancorp was dissolved.

 

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each share of Jacksonville Bancorp common stock was converted into the right to receive $33.70 in cash (the “Merger Consideration”). At the Effective Time, each option to purchase Jacksonville Bancorp common stock issued by Jacksonville Bancorp was canceled and the holder received the right to receive a cash payment equal to $33.70 minus the option exercise price. Additionally, at the Effective Time, each restricted stock award issued that was outstanding at the Effective Time, vested in full and such shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration.

 

Subsequent to the Merger, it is expected that Jacksonville Savings Bank, an Illinois savings bank that was wholly owned by Jacksonville Bancorp, will be merged with and into CNB Bank & Trust, N.A., an Illinois commercial bank and wholly owned subsidiary of CNB (“CNB Bank & Trust”), with CNB Bank & Trust as the surviving entity (the “Bank Merger”). The Bank Merger is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2018 or the first quarter of 2019.

 

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 to Jacksonville Bancorp’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on January 18, 2018 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 3.01Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

As a result of the Merger and subsequent dissolution, Jacksonville Bancorp no longer fulfills the listing requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”). On June 4, 2018, Jacksonville Bancorp notified Nasdaq that trading in Jacksonville Bancorp common stock should be suspended and the listing of Jacksonville Bancorp common stock should be removed, in each case prior to the opening of the market on June 5, 2018. Nasdaq has filed a notification of removal from listing of Jacksonville Bancorp common stock on Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to deregister Jacksonville Bancorp’s common stock under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. CNB, as successor to Jacksonville Bancorp, intends to file a Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to suspend Jacksonville Bancorp’s reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
