Item 8.01 Other Events.
On February 27, 2015, Old National Bancorp (the "Company") entered into a Rule 10b5-1 plan (the "Rule 10b5-1 Plan") under which the Company’s designated broker will have the authority to repurchase up to 1.0 million shares of common stock of the Company commencing on February 27, 2015 and expiring April 29, 2015, unless terminated earlier pursuant to the terms of the Rule 10b5-1 Plan. A Rule 10b5-1 plan allows a company to purchase its shares at times when it would not ordinarily be in the market due to the company's trading policies or the possession of material non-public information.
The Rule 10b5-1 Plan has been established in connection with the Company's previously disclosed stock repurchase plan (the "Repurchase Plan"), which was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on October 23, 2014, and authorizes the repurchase of up to 6.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock, as conditions warrant, through January 31, 2016. Since January 1, 2015, 2,363,850 shares of the Company's common stock have been repurchased under the Repurchase Plan. A total of 3,099,532 shares of the Company's common stock have been repurchased under the Repurchase Plan since its approval by the Company's Board of Directors on October 23, 2014. The timing and extent of the repurchases under the Rule 10b5-1 Plan are subject to Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") regulations as well as certain price, market volume and timing constraints specified in the plan.
