This Amendment No. 3 amends the Schedule 13D filed April 14, 2008, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed December 1, 2008, and Amendment No. 2 filed April 14, 2015.

Item 1.

Security and Issuer

Not amended

Item 2.

Identity and Background

Not amended

Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Not amended

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction

The reporting persons reserve the right to take any of the actions outlined in Item 4 of Schedule 13D, paragraphs (a) through (j). Mr. Thomas M. Davee, one of the reporting persons, is considering submission to River Valley Bancorp before the November 19, 2015 deadline disclosed in River Valley Bancorp’s 2015 annual meeting proxy statement a shareholder proposal for inclusion in the 2016 annual meeting proxy statement. The shareholder proposal would be submitted under SEC Rule 14a-8. Mr. Davee is specifically considering a proposal that would give shareholders the opportunity to express their opinion about the restriction in Section 11.01 of the Articles of Incorporation that affects share holdings exceeding 10% of outstanding shares, treating shares over 10% as so-called excess shares and denying their voting rights. The proposal would, if adopted, request the board of directors to propose for shareholder approval an amendment eliminating the restriction. The governing documents of River Valley Bancorp contain numerous unusual provisions that Mr. Davee believes are contrary to good corporate governance and entrench current management and the board at the expense of shareholder value, including the provision denying voting rights of excess shares. Mr. Davee has not finalized plans for submitting a shareholder proposal. The proposal he actually submits to River Valley Bancorp may differ from the proposal outlined concerning voting rights of excess shares, possibly giving shareholders the opportunity to express their opinion about different corporate governance shortcomings or about additional corporate governance questions.
