Nicolet Bankshares, Inc. filed a current report to correct an error in the joint proxy statement-prospectus for its contemplated merger with MidWestOne Financial Group, Inc. After the joint document was filed, the companies determined that the "Total" column in the Golden Parachute Compensation table for MidWestOne’s named executive officers did not properly add the three underlying columns, even though those individual amounts were accurate. The 8-K provides a corrected "Merger-Related Compensation for MidWestOne Named Executive Officers" table, detailing estimated cash, equity, and perquisites/benefits for each executive, with updated totals such as $6,489,746 for Charles N. Reeves III and $2,284,577 for Len D. Devaisher.

Special shareholder meetings are scheduled for January 26, 2026, and the transaction requires shareholder approvals and bank regulatory approvals. The parties expect the deal to qualify as a tax-free reorganization for MidWestOne shareholders, except for cash paid in lieu of fractional Nicolet shares.
