Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, MergerCo will merge with and into CNBN (the “Merger”), with CNBN as the surviving entity, and as a result, CNBN will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of HBT. Immediately following the Merger, CNBN will merge with and into HBT, with HBT as the surviving entity. In addition, subsequent to the mergers and at a time to be determined by HBT, CNB Bank & Trust, N.A., a national banking association headquartered in Carlinville, Illinois, and a wholly-owned subsidiary of CNBN, will merge with and into Heartland Bank and Trust Company, an Illinois state chartered bank and a wholly-owned subsidiary of HBT (“Heartland Bank”), with Heartland Bank as the surviving bank. The Merger Agreement was unanimously approved and adopted by the board of directors of each of HBT and CNBN. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of common stock, no par value, of CNBN that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than treasury and dissenter shares) will be converted into the right to receive, at the option of each CNBN shareholder, one of the following: (i) 1.0434 validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of HBT common stock, par value $0.01 per share, (ii) cash in the amount of $27.73, or (iii) a combination of cash and shares of HBT common stock, in each case subject to adjustment and to the election and proration procedures as provided in the Merger Agreement. In lieu of fractional shares, holders of CNBN common stock will receive cash. In aggregate, based on CNBN’s common stock and restricted stock units outstanding as of the date hereof, CNBN shareholders are expected to receive cash consideration of approximately $33.8 million and stock consideration of approximately 5.5 million shares of HBT common stock. The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties from both HBT and CNBN, and each party has agreed to customary covenants, including, among others, covenants relating to (i) the conduct of CNBN’s business during the interim period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the Effective Time, (ii) the obligation of CNBN to call a meeting of its shareholders to adopt the Merger Agreement and a requirement that the CNBN board of directors recommend that its shareholders adopt the Merger Agreement at the special meeting, and (iii) CNBN’s non-solicitation obligations relating
