MILWAUKEE, Oct. 10, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Ademi &
O'Reilly, LLP is investigating the Board of MBT Financial
Corporation (NASDAQ: MBTF) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty
and other violations of the law in connection with the sale of MBT
to First Merchants.

obligation to you.
Ademi & O'Reilly, LLP alleges MBT's long-term financial
outlook is improving and yet MBT shareholders will receive the
equivalent of only $12.57 for each
share of MBT common stock. First Merchants is well aware of
MBT's improving financial metrics and is purchasing MBT at a
substantial discount. The merger agreement unreasonably
limits competing bids for MBT by (i) prohibiting solicitation of
any further bids, and (ii) imposing a termination penalty should
MBT receive and accept a superior bid. MBT insiders, their
affiliates and other major shareholders own significant voting
stock, and will receive millions of dollars as part of change of
control arrangements, and therefore can unduly influence a sale of
MBT. Our investigation centers on the conduct of MBT's Board of
Directors, who have unanimously approved the transaction, and
whether they are (i) fulfilling their fiduciary duties to all
shareholders, and (ii) obtaining a fair and reasonable price for
MBT given its current financial condition and prospects.
