First Mid Bancshares, Inc. Announces Changes in Format for its 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders
MATTOON, IL - First Mid Bancshares, Inc. (“First Mid”) announced today, that due to the emerging public health impact of the coronavirus outbreak (COVID-19) and to support the health and well-being of our employees, shareholders, and our community, the Company’s 2020 annual shareholder meeting will now be a virtual meeting over the internet and will not be held at a physical location. Shareholders will be able to attend the Annual Meeting via a live webcast, vote their shares electronically, and submit their questions during the meeting. The Company urges shareholders to consider voting and submitting proxies in advance of the Annual Meeting using one of the available methods described in the proxy materials previously provided to the Company’s shareholders.
The virtual meeting will be held on the same date and time as previously announced, April 29, 2020 at 4:00 p.m. (CST).
If you were a holder of common stock of First Mid at the close of business on March 5, 2020 (the “Record Date”) (i.e., you held your shares in your own name as reflected in the records of our transfer agent, Computershare), you are entitled to participate in the live webcast of the Annual Meeting.

To register you must submit proof of your legal proxy reflecting the number of shares of First Mid common stock you held as of the Record Date, along with your name and email address to Computershare.
