Item 8.01.    Other Events

On December 22, 2011, the Registrant issued a press release announcing that it had received all required regulatory approvals for the conversion of its wholly owned subsidiary, MutualBank, from a federal savings bank to an Indiana commercial bank.  The Indiana Department of Financial Institutions issued its approval of the conversion of MutualBank on December 15, 2011, based on its review of the application and the joint examination of MutualBank it conducted with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, which will be the Bank’s primary federal regulator after the conversion is effective.  The Office of the Comptroller accepted the Bank’s notice of the charter conversion.  In addition, the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago has approved the Registrant’s application to become a bank holding company upon the effectiveness of the conversion of MutualBank to a commercial bank.  The Registrant anticipates that this conversion will be effective January 1, 2012.  A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99 to this Current Report on form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
