Item 8.01 Other Events.

On January 22, 2015, Old National Bancorp (the "Company") issued a press release announcing that the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per common share, an increase from the $0.11 paid on December 15, 2014. The dividend is payable March 16, 2015, to shareholders of record on March 2, 2015. For purposes of broker trading, the ex-date of the cash dividend is February 26, 2015.

On November 28, 2014, Old National Bancorp entered into a Rule 10b5-1 plan (the "Rule 10b5-1 Plan") under which Old National’s designated broker would have the authority to repurchase up to 1.0 million shares of common stock of Old National commencing on November 28, 2014 and expiring January 28, 2015. This plan was established in connection with the Company’s previously disclosed stock repurchase plan (the "Repurchase Plan"), which was approved by the 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. As of January 21, 2015, 1.1 million shares of ONB common stock had been repurchased under the Rule 10b5-1 and Repurchase Plans.
