Item 1 Comment:
Explanatory Note:
This statement constitutes Amendment No. 2 ("Amendment No. 2") to the Schedule 13D filed by Elizabeth Paige Laurie, Trustee of the EPL LINCO Trust, dated December 1, 2015 (the "Trust"), a revocable trust formed by Elizabeth Paige Laurie (the "Trustee"), on February 25, 2021 (the "Initial Schedule 13D"), and amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Initial Schedule 13D filed on August 8, 2024 ("Amendment No. 1"), related to the common stock, par value $4.00 per share (the "Common Stock"), of First Mid Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company").
This Amendment No. 2 is being filed to report a change in the percentage of Common Stock owned by the Trust and the Trustee, which has resulted from changes in the aggregate outstanding shares of Common Stock. There has been no change in the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Trust and the Trustee since the filing of Amendment No. 1 as a result of acquisitions or dispositions. This Amendment No. 2 reflects, among other things, that the Trust and Trustee no longer beneficially own more than 5% of the Common Stock. Accordingly, the Trust and the Trustee are no longer required to file a Schedule 13D to report their holdings of Common Stock, and upon the filing of this Amendment No. 2, the Trust and the Trustee will cease to mandatorily report their holdings of Common Stock on Schedule 13D as long as their holdings do not exceed 5%.
Except as specifically amended below, all other provisions of the Initial Schedule 13D, as amended by Amendment No. 1, remain in effect. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined in this Amendment No. 2 have the meanings set forth in the Initial Schedule 13D, as amended by Amendment No. 1. | ||
| Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction | |
Item 4 is amended to add the following:
Due to an increase in the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding resulting from the merger of Two Rivers Financial Group, Inc. with and into a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Two Rivers Merger"), the aggregate percentage ownership of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Trust and the Trustee dropped below 5% since the filing of Amendment No. 1. Therefore, the Trust and the Trustee are filing this Amendment No. 2 to report their change in percentage ownership below 5%. | ||
| Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer | |
| (a) | Item 5 is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
The Trust and the Trustee beneficially own the 1,262,246 shares of Common Stock held by the Trust, representing 4.74% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding. The Trustee has sole voting and investment power as to these shares of Common Stock held by the Trust. | |
| (b) | The Trust and the Trustee beneficially own the 1,262,246 shares of Common Stock held by the Trust, representing 4.74% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding. The Trustee has sole voting and investment power as to these shares of Common Stock held by the Trust. | |
| (c) | None. | |
| (d) | None. | |
| (e) | The Trust and the Trustee ceased to be beneficial owners of more than 5% of the shares of Common Stock as of February 28, 2026, upon closing of the Two Rivers Merger. | |
| SIGNATURE | |
After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
