The calculation of the foregoing percentage was based on 84,479,464 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock outstanding as of February 28, 2019, as per the Issuer’s Form 10-K/A dated March 20, 2019.
On May 20, 2018, Fifth Third Bancorp, an Ohio corporation ("Fifth Third"), and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Fifth Third Financial Corporation, an Ohio corporation, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with the Issuer. Effective March 22, 2019, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fifth Third merged with and into MB Financial (the "Merger"), with MB Financial surviving the Merger as a subsidiary of Fifth Third. Under the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), each share of the Issuer’s Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into the right to receive (i) 1.45 shares of Fifth Third common stock and (ii) $5.54 in cash. Accordingly, after the Merger was completed, the reporting persons no longer beneficially owned any shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock.
