Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation	Note 1: Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements of First Busey Corporation (“First Busey” or the “Company”), a Nevada corporation, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and do not include certain information and footnote disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete annual financial statements. Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. On May 20, 2015, at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the Company’s stockholders approved a resolution to authorize the board of directors to implement a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock at a ratio of one-for-three (the “Reverse Stock Split”). On August 17, 2015, the board of directors authorized the Reverse Stock Split, which became effective on September 8, 2015. All share and per share information has been restated for all prior periods presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to give retroactive effect to the Reverse Stock Split. The accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2015, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations as of the dates and for the periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016 or any other period. On April 30, 2016, First Busey completed its acquisition of Pulaski Financial Corp., a Missouri Corporation (“Pulaski”), and Pulaski Bank, National Association (“Pulaski Bank”). The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company, Busey Bank and Busey Bank’s wholly owned subsidiary FirsTech, Inc., Pulaski Bank and Pulaski Bank’s wholly owned subsidiaries, Pulaski Service Corporation and Priority Property Holdings, LLC (each as of April 30, 2016) and Busey Wealth Management, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary Busey Trust Company. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation with no effect on net income or stockholders’ equity. In preparing the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company’s management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates which are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the fair value of investment securities and the determination of the allowance for loan losses. Effective January 1, 2016, the Company elected to account for all loans held for sale at fair value. Prior to this change, the Company accounted for loans held for sale at the lower of cost or fair value. See Note 15 - Fair Value Measurements for further discussion. The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and/or disclosure through the date the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q were issued. On July 29, 2016, the Company announced its plan to close one branch in the Florida market. The closing of the branch will allow us to better deploy the Company’s resources and impairment related to this closure will not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, in early August 2016, the Company made decisions to reduce employees in other areas to improve ongoing efficiencies in its operations which will result in related restructuring expenses in the third quarter of 2016. Other than the changes noted above, there were no significant subsequent events for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 through the issuance date of these Consolidated Financial Statements that warranted adjustment to or disclosure in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Acquisitions	Note 2: Acquisitions Pulaski Financial Corp. On April 30, 2016, First Busey completed its acquisition of Pulaski. It is anticipated that Pulaski Bank, which was Pulaski’s wholly owned bank subsidiary prior to the acquisition, will be merged with and into Busey Bank in the fourth quarter of 2016. At the time of the bank merger, Pulaski Bank’s branches will become branches of Busey Bank. Pulaski Bank offers a full line of quality retail and commercial banking products through thirteen full-service branch offices in the St. Louis metropolitan area. Pulaski Bank also offers mortgage loan products through loan production offices in the St. Louis, Kansas City, Chicago, and Omaha-Council Bluffs metropolitan areas and other locations across the Midwest. The operating results of Pulaski are included with the Company’s results of operations since the date of acquisition. Under the terms of the definitive agreement, at the effective time of the acquisition, each share of Pulaski common stock issued and outstanding was converted into 0.79 shares of First Busey common stock and cash in lieu of fractional shares. The market value of the 9.4 million shares of First Busey common stock issued at the effective time of the acquisition was approximately $193.0 million based on First Busey’s closing stock price of $20.44 on April 29, 2016. In addition, all the options to purchase shares of Pulaski common stock that were outstanding at the acquisition date were converted into options to purchase shares of First Busey common stock, adjusted for the 0.79 exchange ratio. The acquisition of Pulaski allows the Company to significantly expand its geographic presence through a premier St. Louis banking franchise with an almost 100-year history and a strong regional residential lending presence. In addition, this transaction is strategically compelling and financially attractive because it creates a Midwest community bank with greater scale and operating efficiency, along with geographic and balance sheet diversification. It also provides cross-sale opportunities with the Company’s Wealth Management operating segment. Pulaski has a deep and experienced management team to assist in post-acquisition integration and market expansion, and a similar culture to First Busey which will facilitate a successful integration process. By acquiring organizations with a similar philosophy in markets which complement the Company’s existing customer base, First Busey intends to expand its franchise through balanced, integrated growth strategies that generate value. This transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration exchanged were recorded at their estimated fair values on the date of acquisition. Fair values are subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of April 30, 2016 as additional information regarding the closing date fair values become available. The total consideration paid, which was used to determine the amount of goodwill resulting from the transaction, also included the fair value of outstanding Pulaski stock options that were converted into options to purchase common shares of First Busey. As the total consideration paid for Pulaski exceeded the net assets acquired, goodwill of $76.7 million was recorded on the acquisition. Goodwill recorded in the transaction, which reflects the synergies expected from the acquisition and the enhanced revenue opportunities from the Company’s broader service capabilities in the St. Louis market, is not tax deductible, and was assigned to the Banking operating segment. First Busey incurred $2.0 million and $2.3 million in pre-tax acquisition expenses related to the acquisition of Pulaski for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, including professional and legal fees of $0.7 million and $0.9 million, respectively, to directly consummate the acquisition, all of which are reported as a component of non-interest expense in the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements. The remainder of the expenses primarily relate to data processing conversion expenses. The following table presents the assets acquired and liabilities of Pulaski assumed as of April 30, 2016 and their initial fair value estimates (dollars in thousands) : As Recorded by Pulaski Initial Fair Value Adjustments As Recorded by First Busey Assets acquired Cash and cash equivalents $ $ — $ Securities (a) Loans held for sale — Loans )(b) Premises and equipment (c) OREO )(d) Goodwill )(e) — Other intangible assets — (f) Other assets )(g) Total assets acquired ) Liabilities assumed Deposits (h) Other borrowings (i) Trust preferred securities )(j) Other liabilities )(k) Total liabilities assumed ) Net assets acquired $ $ ) $ Consideration paid: Cash $ Common stock Fair value of stock options assumed Total consideration paid Goodwill $ Explanation: (a) Fair value adjustments of the securities portfolio as of the acquisition date. (b) Fair value adjustments based on the Company’s evaluation of the acquired loan portfolio, write-off of net deferred loan costs and elimination of the allowance for loan losses recorded by Pulaski. $16.9 million is expected to be accreted over the estimated four year remaining life of the respective loans in a manner that approximates the level yield method. (c) Fair value adjustments based on the Company’s evaluation of the acquired premises and equipment. (d) Fair value adjustment based on the Company’s evaluation of the acquired OREO portfolio. (e) Eliminate Pulaski’s existing goodwill. (f) Recording of the core deposit intangible asset on the acquired core deposit accounts. Amount to be amortized using a sum of years digits method over a 14 year useful life. (g) Fair value adjustment of other assets at the acquisition date. (h) Fair value adjustment to time deposits. Amount to be accreted over two years in a manner that approximates the level yield method. (i) Fair value adjustment to the FHLB borrowings. Such borrowings were repaid shortly after the acquisition date, so there will be no discount accretion. (j) Fair value adjustment to the trust preferred securities at the acquisition date. Amount to be accreted over the weighted average remaining life of 18 years in a manner that approximates the level yield method. (k) Fair value adjustment of other liabilities at the acquisition date. The loans acquired in this transaction were recorded at fair value with no carryover of any existing allowance for loan losses. Loans that were not deemed to be credit-impaired at the acquisition date were accounted for under FASB ASC 310-20, Receivables-Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs and were subsequently considered as part of the Company’s determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Purchased credit-impaired (“PCI”) loans, loans with evidence of credit quality deterioration, were accounted for under FASB ASC 310-30, Receivables — Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality . As of the acquisition date, the principal outstanding and fair value of the acquired performing loans, including loans held for sale, totaled $1.4 billion. The difference between the principal outstanding and fair value of $16.6 million is expected to be accreted over the estimated four year remaining life of the respective loans in a manner that approximates the level yield method. As of the acquisition date, the principal outstanding of PCI loans totaled $21.2 million and the fair value of PCI loans totaled $9.7 million. For PCI loans, the difference between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flow expected to be collected is referred to as the non-accretable difference. Further, the excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the fair value is referred to as the accretable yield. The accretable yield of $0.3 million on PCI loans is expected to be recognized over the estimated four year remaining life of the respective loans in a manner that approximates the level yield method. Since the acquisition date, Pulaski earned total revenues of $13.7 million and net income of $3.8 million, which are included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. The following table provides the unaudited pro forma information for the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2015. The pro forma results combine the historical results of Pulaski with the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income, adjusted for the impact of the application of the acquisition method of accounting including loan discount accretion, intangible assets amortization, and deposit and trust preferred securities premium accretion, net of taxes. The pro forma results have been prepared for comparative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the results that would have been obtained had the acquisition actually occurred on January 1, 2015. No assumptions have been applied to the pro forma results of operations regarding possible revenue enhancements, expense efficiencies or asset dispositions. Only the acquisition related expenses that have been incurred as of June 30, 2016 are included in net income in the table below. Acquisition related expenses, pre-tax, that were recognized and are included in the pro forma net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 totaled $6.7 million and $7.3 million, respectively. Such expenses consisted primarily of professional fees to transact the acquisition, data processing conversion expenses and compensation to certain officers required under employment agreements.

On January 8, 2015, First Busey acquired Herget Financial Corp. (“Herget Financial”), headquartered in Pekin, Illinois and its wholly owned bank subsidiary, Herget Bank, National Association (“Herget Bank”). First Busey operated Herget Bank as a separate banking subsidiary from January 9, 2015 until March 13, 2015, when it was merged with and into Busey Bank, the Company’s wholly owned bank subsidiary. At that time, Herget Bank’s branches in Pekin, Illinois became branches of Busey Bank. The operating results of Herget Financial are included with the Company’s results of operations since the date of acquisition. This transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair values on the date of acquisition. Expenses related to the acquisition of Herget Financial for the first six months of 2016 were insignificant. During the first six months of 2015, pre-tax expenses related to the acquisition of Herget Financial totaled $1.0 million. The 2015 expenses were comprised primarily of system conversion, restructuring, legal, consulting, regulatory and marketing costs, all of which are reported as a component of non-interest expense in the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Note 3: Recent Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” ASU 2014-09 outlines a single model for companies to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 will require that companies recognize revenue based on the value of transferred goods or services as they occur in the contract and will also require additional disclosures. The new authoritative guidance was originally effective for reporting periods after December 15, 2016. In August 2015, ASU 2015-14 , “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” was issued to delay the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. The Company is evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures. ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments — Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” ASU 2016-01 is intended to improve the recognition and measurement of financial instruments by, among other things, requiring: equity investments, with certain exceptions, to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial assets on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements; eliminating the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is to be required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet; and requiring an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in fair value of a liability resulting from the change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the organization has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. ASU 2016-01 will be effective on January 1, 2018 and the Company is evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures. ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” ASU 2016-02 intends to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing all lease transactions (with terms in excess of 12 months) on the balance sheet as a lease liability and a right-of-use asset. The guidance also requires qualitative and quantitative disclosures designed to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Upon adoption, the lessee will apply the new standard retrospectively to all periods presented or retrospectively using a cumulative effect adjustment in the year of adoption. The Company is evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures. ASU 2016-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” ASU 2016-09 is intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. This guidance is effective for reporting periods after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures. ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 implements a comprehensive change in estimating the allowances for loan losses from the current model of losses inherent in the loan portfolio to a current expected credit loss model that generally is expected to result in earlier recognition of allowances for losses. Further, purchase accounting rules have been modified as well as credit losses on held to maturity debt securities. ASU 2016-13 will be effective in the first quarter of 2020. The Company is evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

Securities	Note 4: Securities Securities are classified as held to maturity when First Busey has the ability and management has the intent to hold those securities to maturity. Accordingly, they are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Securities are classified as available for sale when First Busey may decide to sell those securities due to changes in market interest rates, liquidity needs, changes in yields on alternative investments, and for other reasons. They are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, reported in other comprehensive income. The amortized cost, unrealized gains and losses and fair values of securities are summarized as follows: Gross Gross Amortized Unrealized Unrealized Fair June 30, 2016: Cost Gains Losses Value (dollars in thousands) Available for sale U.S. Treasury securities $ $ $ — $ Obligations of U.S. government corporations and agencies ) Obligations of states and political subdivisions ) Residential mortgage-backed securities — Corporate debt securities ) Total debt securities ) Mutual funds and other equity securities — Total $ $ $ ) $ Held to maturity Obligations of states and political subdivisions $ $ $ — $ Commercial mortgage-backed securities — Total $ $ $ — $ Gross Gross Amortized Unrealized Unrealized Fair December 31, 2015: Cost Gains Losses Value (dollars in thousands) Available for sale U.S. Treasury securities $ $ $ ) $ Obligations of U.S. government corporations and agencies ) Obligations of states and political subdivisions ) Residential mortgage-backed securities ) Corporate debt securities ) Total debt securities ) Mutual funds and other equity securities — Total $ $ $ ) $ Held to maturity Obligations of states and political subdivisions $ $ $ ) $ Commercial mortgage-backed securities — Total $ $ $ ) $ The amortized cost and fair value of debt securities as of June 30, 2016, by contractual maturity or pre-refunded date, are shown below. Mutual funds and other equity securities do not have stated maturity dates and therefore are not included in the following maturity summary. Mortgages underlying mortgage-backed securities may be called or prepaid; therefore, actual maturities could differ from the contractual maturities.

The tax provision for the net realized gains and losses was insignificant for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. During the second quarter of 2016, the Company sold one held to maturity security, which was an obligation of state and political subdivisions, with a fair value of $0.4 million due to significant credit deterioration. The sale resulted in an insignificant loss during the quarter. Investment securities with carrying amounts of $604.5 million and $627.4 million on June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, were pledged as collateral for public deposits, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and for other purposes as required or permitted by law. Information pertaining to securities with gross unrealized losses at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous loss position follows: Continuous unrealized losses existing for less than 12 months, gross Continuous unrealized losses existing for greater than 12 months, gross Total, gross Fair Unrealized Fair Unrealized Fair Unrealized June 30, 2016: Value Losses Value Losses Value Losses (dollars in thousands) Available for sale Obligations of U.S. government corporations and agencies $ $ ) $ — $ — $ $ ) Obligations of states and political subdivisions ) ) ) Residential mortgage-backed securities(1) — — — — Corporate debt securities ) ) ) Total temporarily impaired securities $ $ ) $ $ ) $ $ ) Held to maturity Obligations of states and political subdivisions(1) $ $ — $ — $ — $ $ — Total temporarily impaired securities $ $ — $ — $ — $ $ — (1) Unrealized losses existing for less than 12 months, gross, was less than one thousand dollars.

Securities are periodically evaluated for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”). The total number of securities in the investment portfolio in an unrealized loss position as of June 30, 2016 was 23, and represented a loss of 1.47% of the aggregate carrying value. As of June 30, 2016, the Company does not intend to sell such securities and it is more-likely-than-not that the Company will recover the amortized cost prior to being required to sell the securities. Full collection of the amounts due according to the contractual terms of the securities is expected; therefore, the Company does not consider these investments to be OTTI at June 30, 2016. The Company had available for sale obligations of state and political subdivisions with aggregate fair values of $168.2 million and $178.6 million as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. In addition, the Company had held to maturity obligations of state and political subdivisions with aggregate fair values of $48.7 million and $49.3 million as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. As of June 30, 2016, the aggregate fair value of the Company’s obligations of state and political subdivisions portfolio was comprised of $180.7 million of general obligation bonds and $36.2 million of revenue bonds issued by 266 issuers, primarily consisting of states, counties, cities, towns, villages and school districts. The Company held investments in general obligation bonds in 29 states (including the District of Columbia), including seven states in which the aggregate fair value exceeded $5.0 million. The Company held investments in revenue bonds in 16 states, including two states where the aggregate fair value exceeded $5.0 million. As of December 31, 2015, the aggregate fair value of the Company’s obligations of state and political subdivisions portfolio was comprised of $193.4 million of general obligation bonds and $34.4 million of revenue bonds issued by 278 issuers, primarily consisting of states, counties, cities, towns, villages and school districts. The Company held investments in general obligation bonds in 29 states (including the District of Columbia), including seven states in which the aggregate fair value exceeded $5.0 million. The Company held investments in revenue bonds in 17 states, including two states where the aggregate fair value exceeded $5.0 million. The amortized cost and fair values of the Company’s portfolio of general obligation bonds are summarized in the following tables by the issuers’ state: Average Exposure Number of Amortized Fair Per Issuer June 30, 2016: Issuers Cost Value (Fair Value) (dollars in thousands) U.S. State Illinois $ $ $ Wisconsin Michigan Pennsylvania Texas Ohio Iowa Other Total general obligations bonds $ $ $ Average Exposure Number of Amortized Fair Per Issuer December 31, 2015: Issuers Cost Value (Fair Value) (dollars in thousands) U.S. State Illinois $ $ $ Wisconsin Michigan Pennsylvania Texas Ohio Iowa Other Total general obligations bonds $ $ $ The general obligation bonds are diversified across many issuers, with $3.5 million and $3.4 million being the largest exposure to a single issuer at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company did not hold general obligation bonds of any single issuer, the aggregate book or market value of which exceeded 10% of the Company’s stockholders’ equity. Of the general obligation bonds in the Company’s portfolio, 98.3% had been rated by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating organization and 1.7% were unrated, based on the aggregate fair value as of June 30, 2016. Of the general obligation bonds in the Company’s portfolio, 97.6% had been rated by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating organization and 2.4% were unrated, based on the aggregate fair value as of December 31, 2015. The amortized cost and fair values of the Company’s portfolio of revenue bonds are summarized in the following tables by the issuers’ state: Average Exposure Number of Amortized Fair Per Issuer June 30, 2016: Issuers Cost Value (Fair Value) (dollars in thousands) U.S. State Indiana $ $ $ Illinois Other Total revenue bonds $ $ $ Average Exposure Number of Amortized Fair Per Issuer December 31, 2015: Issuers Cost Value (Fair Value) (dollars in thousands) U.S. State Indiana $ $ $ Illinois Other Total revenue bonds $ $ $ The revenue bonds are diversified across many issuers and revenue sources with $3.8 million and $3.0 million being the largest exposure to a single issuer at each of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company did not hold revenue bonds of any single issuer, the aggregate book or market value of which exceeded 10% of the Company’s stockholders’ equity. Of the revenue bonds in the Company’s portfolio, 97.0% had been rated by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating organization and 3.0% were unrated, based on the fair value as of June 30, 2016. All of the revenue bonds in the Company’s portfolio had been rated by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating organization as of December 31, 2015. Some of the primary types of revenue bonds held in the Company’s portfolio include: primary education or government building lease rentals secured by ad valorem taxes, utility systems secured by utility system net revenues, housing authorities secured by mortgage loans or principal receipts on mortgage loans, secondary education secured by student fees/tuitions, and pooled issuances (i.e. bond bank) consisting of multiple underlying municipal obligors. Substantially all of the Company’s obligations of state and political subdivision securities are owned by its subsidiary banks , which have adopted First Busey’s investment policy requiring that state and political subdivision securities purchased be investment grade. Such investment policy also limits the amount of rated state and political subdivision securities to an aggregate 100% of the subsidiary banks’ Total Capital (as defined by federal regulations) at the time of purchase and an aggregate 15% of Total Capital for unrated state and political subdivision securities issued by municipalities having taxing authority or located in counties/micropolitan statistical areas/metropolitan statistical areas in which an office is located. The investment policy states fixed income investments that are not Office of the Comptroller of the Currency Type 1 securities (U.S. Treasuries, agencies, municipal government general obligation and, for well-capitalized institutions, most municipal revenue bonds) should be analyzed prior to acquisition to determine that (1) the security has low risk of default by the obligor, and (2) the full and timely repayment of principal and interest is expected over the expected life of the investment. All securities in First Busey’s obligations of state and political subdivision securities portfolio are subject to ongoing review. Factors that may be considered as part of ongoing monitoring of state and political subdivision securities include credit rating changes by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations, market valuations, third-party municipal credit analysis, which may include indicative information regarding the issuer’s capacity to pay, market and economic data and such other factors as are available and relevant to the security or the issuer such as its budgetary position and sources, strength and stability of taxes and/or other revenue.

Net loans increased $1.2 billion as of June 30, 2016 as compared to December 31, 2015 primarily as a result of the Pulaski acquisition. Net deferred loan origination costs included in the tables above were $1.8 million as of June 30, 2016 and $0.9 million as of December 31, 2015. The Company believes that making sound loans is a necessary and desirable means of employing funds available for investment. Recognizing the Company’s obligations to its stockholders, depositors, and to the communities it serves, authorized personnel are expected to seek to develop and make sound, profitable loans that resources permit and that opportunity affords. The Company maintains lending policies and procedures designed to focus lending efforts on the types, locations and duration of loans most appropriate for its business model and markets. While not specifically limited, the Company attempts to focus its lending on short to intermediate-term (0-7 years) loans in geographic areas within 125 miles of its lending offices. Loans might be originated outside of these areas, but such loans are generally residential mortgage loans originated for sale in the secondary market. The Company attempts to utilize government-assisted lending programs, such as the Small Business Administration and United States Department of Agriculture lending programs, when prudent. Generally, loans are collateralized by assets, primarily real estate, of the borrowers and guaranteed by individuals. The loans are expected to be repaid primarily from cash flows of the borrowers, or from proceeds from the sale of selected assets of the borrowers. Management reviews and approves the Company’s lending policies and procedures on a routine basis. The policies for legacy Pulaski loans are similar in nature to Busey Bank’s policies and the Company is migrating Pulaski’s loan production towards the Busey Bank policies. Management routinely (at least quarterly) reviews the Company’s allowance for loan losses and reports related to loan production, loan quality, concentrations of credit, loan delinquencies and non-performing and potential problem loans. The Company’s underwriting standards are designed to encourage relationship banking rather than transactional banking. Relationship banking implies a primary banking relationship with the borrower that includes, at a minimum, an active deposit banking relationship in addition to the lending relationship. The integrity and character of the borrower are significant factors in the Company’s loan underwriting. As a part of underwriting, tangible positive or negative evidence of the borrower’s integrity and character are sought out. Additional significant underwriting factors beyond location, duration, a sound and profitable cash flow basis and the borrower’s character are the quality of the borrower’s financial history, the liquidity of the underlying collateral and the reliability of the valuation of the underlying collateral. At no time is a borrower’s total borrowing relationship permitted to exceed the Company’s regulatory lending limit and the Company generally limits such relationships to amounts substantially less than the regulatory limit. Loans to related parties, including executive officers and directors of the Company and its subsidiaries, are reviewed for compliance with regulatory guidelines by the Company’s board of directors at least annually. The Company maintains an independent loan review department that reviews the loans for compliance with the Company’s loan policy on a periodic basis. In addition, the loan review department reviews the risk assessments made by the Company’s credit department, lenders and loan committees. Results of these reviews are presented to management and the audit committee at least quarterly. The Company’s lending can be summarized into five primary areas: commercial loans, commercial real estate loans, real estate construction loans, retail real estate loans, and other retail loans. A description of each of the lending areas can be found in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. The significant majority of the Company’s portfolio lending activity occurs in its Illinois and Missouri markets, with the remainder in the Indiana and Florida markets. The Company utilizes a loan grading scale to assign a risk grade to all of its loans. A description of the general characteristics of each grade is as follows: · Pass- This category includes loans which are all considered strong credits, from investment or near investment grade to loans comprised of borrowers that exhibit credit fundamentals that exceed industry standards and loan policy guidelines and loans that exhibit acceptable credit fundamentals. · Watch- This category includes loans on management’s “Watch List” and is intended to be utilized on a temporary basis for a pass grade borrower where a significant risk-modifying action is anticipated in the near future. · Special mention- This category is for “Other Assets Specially Mentioned” loans that have potential weaknesses which may, if not checked or corrected, weaken the asset or inadequately protect the Company’s credit position at some future date. · Substandard- This category includes “Substandard” loans, determined in accordance with regulatory guidelines, for which the accrual of interest has not been stopped. Assets so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. · Doubtful- This category includes “Doubtful” loans that have all the characteristics of a “Substandard” loan with additional factors that make collection in full highly questionable and improbable. Such loans are placed on non-accrual status and may be dependent on collateral with a value that is difficult to determine. All loans are graded at their inception. Most commercial lending relationships that are $1.0 million or less are processed through an expedited underwriting process. If the credit receives a pass grade it is aggregated into a homogenous pool of either: $0.35 million or less or $0.35 million to $1.0 million. These pools are monitored on a regular basis and reviewed annually. Most commercial loans greater than $1.0 million are included in a portfolio review at least annually. Commercial loans greater than $0.35 million that have a grading of special mention or worse are reviewed on a quarterly basis. Interim reviews may take place if circumstances of the borrower warrant a more timely review. Loans in the highest grades, represented by the pass and watch categories, totaled $3.6 billion at June 30, 2016, compared to $2.5 billion at December 31, 2015. Loans in the lowest grades, represented by the special mention, substandard and doubtful, totaled $183.9 million at June 30, 2016, compared to $166.8 million at December 31, 2015. The following table is a summary of risk grades segregated by category of loans (excluding held for sale, accretable carrying value adjustments, and non-posted and clearings): June 30, 2016 Pass Watch Special Mention Substandard Doubtful (dollars in thousands) Commercial $ $ $ $ $ Commercial real estate Real estate construction Retail real estate Retail other Total $ $ $ $ $ December 31, 2015 Pass Watch Special Mention Substandard Doubtful (dollars in thousands) Commercial $ $ $ $ $ Commercial real estate Real estate construction Retail real estate Retail other — Total $ $ $ $ $ Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were due. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payment obligations as they become due, as well as when required by regulatory provisions. Loans may be placed on non-accrual status regardless of whether or not such loans are considered past due. When interest accrual is discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest is reversed. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received in excess of the principal due. Loans may be returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured. An analysis of past due loans that are still accruing and non-accrual loans is as follows: June 30, 2016 Loans past due, still accruing Non-accrual 30-59 Days 60-89 Days 90+Days Loans (dollars in thousands) Commercial $ $ $ — $ Commercial real estate Real estate construction — — Retail real estate — Retail other — Total $ $ $ $ December 31, 2015 Loans past due, still accruing Non-accrual 30-59 Days 60-89 Days 90+Days Loans (dollars in thousands) Commercial $ $ $ $ Commercial real estate — Real estate construction — — — Retail real estate — Retail other — Total $ $ $ $ A loan is classified as impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable the Company will be unable to collect scheduled principal and interest payments when due according to the terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Loans graded substandard or doubtful and loans classified as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) are assessed for impairment by the Company. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. PCI loans are considered impaired. Large groups of smaller balance homogenous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures unless such loans are the subject of a restructuring agreement. The gross interest income that would have been recorded in the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 if impaired loans had been current in accordance with their original terms was $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The amount of interest collected on those loans and recognized on a cash basis that was included in interest income was insignificant for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. The Company’s loan portfolio includes certain loans that have been modified in a TDR, where concessions have been granted to borrowers who have experienced financial difficulties. The Company will restructure a loan for its customer after evaluating whether the borrower is able to meet the terms of the loan over the long term, but who may be unable to meet the terms of the loan in the near term due to individual circumstances. The Company considers the customer’s past performance, previous and current credit history, the individual circumstances surrounding the current difficulties and the customer’s plan to meet the terms of the loan in the future prior to restructuring the terms of the loan. Generally, all five primary areas of lending are restructured through short-term interest rate relief, short-term principal payment relief, short-term principal and interest payment relief or forbearance (debt forgiveness). Once a restructured loan exceeds 90 days past due or is placed on non-accrual status, it is classified as non-performing loan totals. A summary of restructured loans as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 is as follows: June 30, 2016 December 31, 2015 (dollars in thousands) Restructured loans: In compliance with modified terms $ $ 30 — 89 days past due Included in non-performing loans Total $ $ All TDRs are considered to be impaired for purposes of assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and for financial reporting purposes. When the Company modifies a loan in a TDR, it evaluates any possible impairment similar to other impaired loans based on present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. If the Company determines that the fair value of the TDR is less than the recorded investment in the loan, impairment is recognized through an allowance estimate in the period of the modification and in periods subsequent to the modification. Performing loans classified as TDRs during the three months ended June 30, 2016 included four retail real estate modifications for short-term principal payment relief, with a recorded investment of $0.1 million. Performing loans classified as TDRs during the six months ended June 30, 2016 included three commercial real estate modifications for short-term principal payment relief, with a recorded investment of $0.3 million and six retail real estate modifications for short-term principal payment relief, with a recorded investment of $0.4 million. Performing loans classified as TDRs during the three months ended June 30, 2015 included one retail real estate modification for short-term interest rate relief, with a recorded investment of $0.1 million. Performing loans classified as TDRs during the six months ended June 30, 2015 included one retail real estate modification for short-term interest rate relief, with a recorded investment of $0.1 million and four retail real estate modifications for short-term principal payment relief, with a recorded investment of $0.4 million. The gross interest income that would have been recorded in the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 if performing TDRs had been performing in accordance with their original terms compared with their modified terms was insignificant. TDRs that were entered into during the last twelve months that were subsequently classified as non-performing and had payment defaults (a default occurs when a loan is 90 days or more past due or transferred to non-accrual) during the three months ended June 30, 2016 consisted of three retail real estate modifications totaling $0.2 million.

TDRs that were entered into during the prior twelve months that were subsequently classified as non-performing and had payment defaults during the three months ended June 30, 2015 consisted of one commercial real estate modification totaling $1.0 million.

These estimates are affected by changing economic conditions and the economic prospects of borrowers. Allowance for Loan Losses The allowance for loan losses represents an estimate of the amount of losses believed to be inherent in the Company’s loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The allowance for loan losses is evaluated geographically, by class of loans. The allowance calculation involves a high degree of estimation that management attempts to mitigate through the use of objective historical data where available. Loan losses are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes the uncollectibility of the loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Overall, the Company believes the allowance methodology is consistent with prior periods and the balance was adequate to cover the estimated losses in the Company’s loan portfolio at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The general portion of the Company’s allowance contains two components: (i) a component for historical loss ratios, and (ii) a component for adversely graded loans. The historical loss ratio component is an annualized loss rate calculated using a sum-of-years digits weighted 20-quarter historical average. The Company’s component for adversely graded loans attempts to quantify the additional risk of loss inherent in the special mention and substandard portfolios. The substandard portfolio has an additional allocation of 3.00% placed on such loans, which is an estimate of the additional loss inherent in these loan grades based upon a review of overall historical charge-offs. As of June 30, 2016, the Company believed this reserve remained adequate. Special mention loans have an additional allocation of 1.00% placed on such loans, which is an estimate of the additional loss inherent in these loan grades. As of June 30, 2016, the Company believed this reserve remained adequate. The specific portion of the Company’s allowance relates to loans that are impaired, which includes non-performing loans, TDRs and other loans determined to be impaired. Impaired loans are excluded from the determination of the general allowance for non-impaired loans and are allocated specific reserves as discussed above. Impaired loans are reported at the fair value of the underlying collateral, less estimated costs to sell, if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Collateral values are estimated using a combination of observable inputs, including recent appraisals discounted for collateral specific changes and current market conditions, and unobservable inputs based on customized discounting criteria. The general reserve quantitative allocation that is based upon historical charge off rates is adjusted for qualitative factors based on current general economic conditions and other qualitative risk factors both internal and external to the Company. In general, such valuation allowances are determined by evaluating, among other things: (i) Management & Staff; (ii) Loan Underwriting, Policy and Procedures; (iii) Internal/External Audit & Loan Review; (iv) Valuation of Underlying Collateral; (v) Macro and Local Economic Factors; (vi) Impact of Competition, Legal & Regulatory Issues; (vii) Nature and Volume of Loan Portfolio; (viii) Concentrations of Credit; (ix) Net Charge-Off Trends; and (x) Non-Accrual, Past Due and Classified Trends. Management evaluates the degree of risk that each one of these components has on the quality of the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis. Based on each component’s risk factor, a qualitative adjustment to the reserve may be applied to the appropriate loan categories. During the second quarter of 2016, the Company adjusted qualitative factors relating to Impact of Competition, Legal & Regulatory Issues. The adjustment of these factors increased our allowance requirements by $1.9 million at June 30, 2016 compared to the method used for March 31, 2016. Adjustments to increase these qualitative factors were made to recognize perceived changing degrees of risk, offset decreasing quantitative factors and reflect management’s evaluation of risk. The Company will continue to monitor its qualitative factors on a quarterly basis. The Company holds acquired loans from business combinations with uncollected principal balances. These loans are carried net of a fair value adjustment for credit risk and interest rates and are only included in the allowance calculation to the extent that the reserve requirement exceeds the fair value adjustment. However, as the acquired loans renew, it is necessary to establish an allowance which represents an amount that, in management’s opinion, will be adequate to absorb probable credit losses inherent in such loans. The following table details activity in the allowance for loan losses. Allocation of a portion of the allowance to one category does not preclude its availability to absorb losses in other categories.

OREO	Note 6: OREO OREO represents properties acquired through foreclosure or other proceedings in settlement of loans. OREO is held for sale and is recorded at the date of foreclosure at the fair value of the properties less estimated costs of disposal, which establishes a new cost basis. Any adjustment to fair value at the time of transfer to OREO is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Properties are evaluated regularly to ensure each recorded amount is supported by its current fair value, and valuation allowances to reduce the carrying amount to fair value less estimated costs to dispose are recorded as necessary. Revenue, expense, gains and losses from the operations of foreclosed assets are included in operations. At June 30, 2016, the Company held $2.8 million in commercial OREO, $0.5 million in residential OREO and an insignificant amount of other repossessed assets. At December 31, 2015, the Company held $0.5 million in commercial OREO, $0.3 million in residential OREO and an insignificant amount of other repossessed assets.

Borrowings
Borrowings	Note 7: Borrowings Securities sold under agreements to repurchase, which are classified as secured borrowings, generally mature either daily or within one year from the transaction date. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are reflected at the amount of cash received in connection with the transaction. The underlying securities are held by the Company’s safekeeping agent. The Company may be required to provide additional collateral based on fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying securities. Short-term borrowings consist of FHLB advances which mature in less than one year from date of origination. On November 20, 2015, the Company entered into a credit agreement to make available a revolving loan facility to the Company in the maximum principal amount of $20.0 million. The loan has an annual interest rate of 2.50% plus the one-month LIBOR rate and has a maturity date of November 19, 2016. The loan also bears a non-usage fee calculated based on the average daily principal balance of the loan outstanding during the prior fiscal quarter. The Company had no outstanding amounts on its loan at June 30, 2016 or December 31, 2015 . The following table sets forth the distribution of securities sold under agreements to repurchase and short-term borrowings and weighted average interest rates: June 30, 2016 December 31, 2015 (dollars in thousands) Securities sold under agreements to repurchase Balance at end of period $ $ Weighted average interest rate at end of period % % Maximum outstanding at any month end in year-to-date period $ $ Average daily balance for the year-to-date period $ $ Weighted average interest rate during period(1) % % Short-term borrowings, FHLB advances Balance at end of period $ $ — Weighted average interest rate at end of period % — % Maximum outstanding at any month end in year-to-date period $ $ — Average daily balance for the year-to-date period $ $ — Weighted average interest rate during period(1) % — % (1) The weighted average interest rate is computed by dividing total annualized interest for the year-to-date period by the average daily balance outstanding. Long-term debt is summarized as follows: June 30, 2016 December 31, 2015 (dollars in thousands) Notes payable, FHLB, ranging in maturity from nineteen months to ten years, collateralized by FHLB deposits, residential and commercial real estate loans and FHLB stock. $ $ As of June 30, 2016, funds borrowed from the FHLB, listed above, consisted of variable-rate notes maturing through September 2024, with interest rates ranging from 0.14% to 0.28%.

Diluted earnings per common share are computed using the treasury stock method and reflects the potential dilution that could occur if the Company’s outstanding stock options were exercised and restricted stock units were vested. Stock options and restricted stock units for which the exercise or the grant price exceeds the average market price over the period have an anti-dilutive effect and are excluded from the calculation. At June 30, 2016, 10,850 outstanding options and 191,278 warrants were anti-dilutive and excluded from the calculation of common stock equivalents. At June 30, 2015, 86,585 outstanding options, 191,278 warrants, and 126,844 restricted stock units were anti-dilutive and excluded from the calculation of common stock equivalents.

Share-based Compensation
Share-based Compensation	Note 9: Share-based Compensation The Company grants share-based compensation awards to its employees and members of its board of directors as provided for under the Company’s 2010 Equity Incentive Plan. The Company currently grants share-based compensation in the form of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and deferred stock units (“DSUs”). The Company grants RSUs to members of management periodically throughout the year. Each RSU is equivalent to one share of the Company’s common stock. These units have a requisite service period ranging from one to five years. The Company annually grants share-based awards in the form of DSUs, which are RSUs with a deferred settlement date, to its board of directors. Each DSU is equivalent to one share of the Company’s common stock. The DSUs vest over a twelve-month period following the grant date or on the date of the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders, whichever is earlier. These units generally are subject to the same terms as RSUs under the Company’s 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, except that, following vesting, settlement occurs within 30 days following the earlier of separation from the board or a change in control of the Company. Subsequent to vesting and prior to delivery, these units will continue to earn dividend equivalents. The Company also has outstanding stock options granted prior to 2011. Under the terms of the Company’s 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, the Company is allowed, but not required, to source stock option exercises and grants of RSUs and DSUs from its inventory of treasury stock. As of June 30, 2016, the Company held 707,405 shares in treasury. On February 3, 2015, First Busey announced that its board of directors approved a repurchase plan under which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to an aggregate of 666,667 shares of its common stock. The repurchase plan has no expiration date and replaced the prior repurchase plan that was originally approved in 2008. During the third quarter of 2015, the Company purchased 333,333 shares under this repurchase plan. At June 30, 2016 the Company had 333,334 shares that may yet be purchased under the plan. A description of the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, which was amended in 2015, can be found in the Company’s Proxy Statement for the 2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The Company’s 2010 Equity Incentive Plan is designed to encourage ownership of its common stock by its employees and directors, to provide additional incentive for them to promote the success of its business, and to attract and retain talented personnel. All of the Company’s employees and directors, and those of its subsidiaries, are eligible to receive awards under the plan. In relation to the Pulaski acquisition, the Company assumed stock options that were previously issued under shareholder approved Pulaski incentive plans. At the effective time of the acquisition, each outstanding option to purchase shares of Pulaski common stock was converted automatically into a stock option exercisable for that number of shares of First Busey common stock equal to (i) the number of shares of Pulaski common stock subject to the Pulaski stock option immediately prior to the effective time multiplied by (ii) the exchange ratio (rounded down to the nearest whole share), with an exercise price per share equal to (A) the exercise price per share of Pulaski common stock of the Pulaski stock option immediately prior to the effective time divided by (B) the exchange ratio (rounded up to the nearest whole cent). Each Pulaski stock option assumed and converted continues to be subject to the same terms and conditions, as applicable immediately prior to the effective time. All Pulaski stock options are fully vested. A summary of the status of and changes in the Company’s stock option awards for the six months ended June 30, 2016 follows: Shares Weighted- Average Exercise Price Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term Outstanding at beginning of year $ Converted options from Pulaski Granted — — Exercised ) Forfeited ) Expired ) Outstanding at end of period $ Exercisable at end of period $ The Company did not record any stock option compensation expense for the three or six months ended June 30, 2016 or 2015. A summary of the changes in the Company’s stock unit awards for the six months ended June 30, 2016, is as follows: Weighted- Director Weighted- Restricted Average Deferred Average Stock Grant Date Stock Grant Date Units Fair Value Units Fair Value Non-vested at beginning of year $ $ Granted — — — — Dividend equivalents earned Vested ) ) Forfeited ) — — Non-vested at end of period $ $ Outstanding at end of period $ $ All recipients earn quarterly dividend equivalents on their respective units. These dividend equivalents are not paid out during the vesting period, but instead entitle the recipients to additional units. Therefore, dividends earned each quarter compound based upon the updated unit balances. Upon vesting/delivery, shares are expected (though not required) to be issued from treasury. In relation to the Pulaski acquisition, the Company also assumed performance based restricted stock units. At the effective time of the acquisition, the number of shares covered by each outstanding restricted stock unit award in respect of Pulaski common stock was fixed at the target level under Pulaski’s existing plan and automatically converted into a service-based restricted stock unit award of First Busey common stock that is equal to the number of shares of Pulaski common stock subject to such Pulaski performance stock award multiplied by the exchange ratio. Following the change in control, each restricted stock award will vest, without regard to any performance metrics, on the earlier to occur of September 30, 2017 or the award holders’ involuntary termination of employment for reasons other than cause or voluntary termination of employment for good reason, as specified in the award agreement. Dividends related to these units are accrued and will be paid in cash upon vesting. At June 30, 2016 these awards represented 53,004 First Busey restricted stock units. The Company recognized $0.4 million and $0.3 million of compensation expense related to non-vested stock units for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Company recognized $0.8 million and $0.6 million of compensation expense related to non-vested stock units for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. As of June 30, 2016, there was $3.6 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to these non-vested stock units. This cost is expected to be recognized over a period of 3.1 years.

Outstanding Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
Outstanding Commitments and Contingent Liabilities	Note 11: Outstanding Commitments and Contingent Liabilities Legal Matters The Company is a party to legal actions which arise in the normal course of its business activities. In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of these matters is not expected to have a material effect on the financial position or the results of operations of the Company. Credit Commitments and Contingencies The Company is a party to credit-related financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of those commitments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. A summary of the contractual amount of the Company’s exposure to off-balance-sheet risk relating to the Company’s commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit follows: June 30, 2016 December 31, 2015 (dollars in thousands) Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk: Commitments to extend credit $ $ Standby letters of credit Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as no condition established in the contract has been violated. These commitments are generally at variable interest rates and generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The commitments for equity lines of credit may expire without being drawn upon. Therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer’s obligation to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including bond financing and similar transactions and primarily have terms of one year or less. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Company holds collateral, which may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, and income producing properties, supporting those commitments if deemed necessary. In the event the customer does not perform in accordance with the terms of the agreement with the third party, the Company would be required to fund the commitment. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make is represented by the contractual amount shown in the summary above. If the commitment is funded, the Company would be entitled to seek recovery from the customer. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, no amounts were recorded as liabilities for the Company’s potential obligations under these guarantees. Other Commitments From time to time, the Company will sign contracts for construction projects relating to the Company’s facilities.

Capital

Capital
Capital	Note 12: Capital The ability of the Company to pay cash dividends to its stockholders and to service its debt historically was dependent on the receipt of cash dividends from its subsidiaries. Under applicable regulatory requirements, an Illinois state-chartered bank such as Busey Bank may not pay dividends in excess of its net profits. Because Busey Bank has been in a retained earnings deficit position since 2009, it has not been able to pay dividends since that time. With prior approval from its regulators, however, an Illinois state-chartered bank in this situation may be able to reduce its capital stock, by amending its charter to decrease the authorized number of shares, and then make a subsequent distribution to its holding company. Using this approach, and with the approval of its regulators, Busey Bank has distributed funds to the Company, the most recent of which was $60.0 million on December 8, 2015. The Company expects to seek regulatory approval for additional capital distributions in future periods. Pulaski Bank is a national bank regulated by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”). Under federal regulations, the approval of the OCC is required prior to any capital distribution when the total amount of capital distributions for the current calendar year exceeds net income for that year plus retained net income for the preceding two years. In connection with the application of the acquisition method of accounting, Pulaski Bank’s retained earnings were reduced to zero at the date of the acquisition. Accordingly, the amount of Pulaski Bank’s capital available for distribution to the Company without prior regulatory approval is limited to Pulaski Bank’s undistributed earnings since the date of the acquisition. The Company and both of its subsidiary banks are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and/or state agencies that involve the quantitative measure of their assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items, as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Quantitative measures established by regulations to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the banks to maintain minimum dollar amounts and ratios of such to risk weighted assets (as defined in the regulations and set forth in the table below) of total capital, Tier 1 capital and Common Equity Tier 1 capital, and for both of the subsidiary banks, Tier 1 capital to average assets. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements may cause regulatory bodies to initiate certain discretionary and/or mandatory actions that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our financial statements. The Company, as a financial holding company, is required to be “well capitalized” in the capital categories shown in the table below. As of June 30, 2016, the Company and both of its subsidiary banks met all capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject, including the guidelines to be considered “well capitalized.” On July 21, 2010, President Obama signed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) into law, which required the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System to establish minimum capital levels for bank holding companies on a consolidated basis that are at least as stringent as those required for insured depository institutions. The components of Tier 1 capital were restricted to capital instruments that at the time of signing were considered to be Tier 1 capital for insured depository institutions. As a result, the proceeds of trust preferred securities are excluded from Tier 1 capital unless such securities were issued prior to May 19, 2010 by bank holding companies with less than $15.0 billion of total assets. Since the Company has assets of less than $15.0 billion, it is able to maintain its trust preferred securities as Tier 1 capital but it will have to comply with new capital mandates in other respects, and it will not be able to raise Tier 1 capital through the issuance of trust preferred securities in the future. In July 2013, the U.S. federal banking authorities approved the implementation of the Basel III regulatory capital reforms and issued rules effecting certain changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act (the “Basel III Rules”). The Basel III Rules are applicable to all U.S. banks that are subject to minimum capital requirements, as well as to bank and savings and loan holding companies other than “small bank holding companies” (generally non-public bank holding companies with consolidated assets of less than $1 billion). The Basel III Rules not only increased most of the required minimum regulatory capital ratios, but they also introduced a new Common Equity Tier 1 Capital ratio and the concept of a capital conservation buffer. The Basel III Rules also expanded the definition of capital as in effect currently by establishing criteria that instruments must meet to be considered Additional Tier 1 Capital (Tier 1 Capital in addition to Common Equity) and Tier 2 Capital. A number of instruments that generally qualified as Tier 1 Capital under the old guidelines no longer qualify, or their qualifications will change, as the Basel III Rules are being fully implemented. The Basel III Rules also permitted banking organizations with less than $15.0 billion in assets to retain, through a one-time election, the past treatment for accumulated other comprehensive income, which did not affect regulatory capital. First Busey and both of its subsidiary banks made this election in the first quarter of 2015 to avoid variations in the level of their capital depending on fluctuations in the fair value of their securities portfolio. The Basel III Rules maintained the general structure of the prompt corrective action framework, while incorporating increased requirements. The prompt corrective action guidelines were also revised to add the Common Equity Tier 1 Capital ratio. Under the final capital rules that became effective on January 1, 2015, there was a requirement for a Common Equity Tier 1 capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk weighted assets which is in addition to the other minimum risk based capital standards in the rule. Failure to maintain the buffer will result in restrictions on the Company’s ability to make capital distributions, including the payment of dividends, and to pay discretionary bonuses to executive officers. The capital buffer requirement is being phased-in over three years beginning in 2016. The table below includes the 0.625% increase for 2016 in the minimum capital requirement ratios. The capital buffer requirement effectively raises the minimum required Common Equity Tier 1 Capital ratio to 7.0%, the Tier 1 Capital ratio to 8.5%, and the Total Capital ratio to 10.5% on a fully phased-in basis on January 1, 2019. As of June 30, 2016, the Company and both of its subsidiary banks were in compliance with the current phase of the Basel III Rules and management believes that the Company and both of its subsidiary banks would meet all capital adequacy requirements under the Basel III Rules on a fully phased-in basis as if such requirements had been in effect.

Operating Segments and Related Information
Operating Segments and Related Information	Note 13: Operating Segments and Related Information The Company has three reportable operating segments, Banking, Remittance Processing and Wealth Management. The Banking operating segment provides a full range of banking services to individual and corporate customers through its branch network in downstate Illinois, Missouri, southwest Florida and through its branch in Indianapolis, Indiana. Banking services for Busey Bank and Pulaski Bank are aggregated into the banking operating segment as they have similar operations and activities. The Remittance Processing operating segment provides for online bill payments, lockbox and walk-in payments. The Wealth Management operating segment provides a full range of asset management, investment and fiduciary services to individuals, businesses and foundations, tax preparation, philanthropic advisory services and farm and brokerage services. The Company’s three operating segments are strategic business units that are separately managed as they offer different products and services and have different marketing strategies. The “other” category consists of the Parent Company and the elimination of intercompany transactions. The segment financial information provided below has been derived from the internal accounting system used by management to monitor and manage the financial performance of the Company. The accounting policies of the three segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Derivative Financial Instruments
Derivative Financial Instruments	Note 14: Derivative Financial Instruments The Company originates and purchases derivative financial instruments, including interest rate lock commitments issued to residential loan customers for loans that will be held for sale, forward sales commitments to sell residential mortgage loans to loan investors and interest rate swaps. See Note 15 - Fair Value Measurements for further discussion of the fair value measurement of such derivatives. Interest Rate Lock Commitments - At June 30, 2016, the Company had issued $396.0 million of unexpired interest rate lock commitments to loan customers. Such interest rate lock commitments that meet the definition of derivative financial instruments under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, are carried at their fair values in other assets or other liabilities in the consolidated financial statements, with changes in the fair values of the corresponding derivative financial assets or liabilities recorded as either a charge or credit to current earnings during the period in which the changes occurred. Forward Sales Commitments - At June 30, 2016, the Company had issued $651.6 million of unexpired forward sales commitments to mortgage loan investors. Typically, the Company economically hedges mortgage loans held for sale and interest rate lock commitments issued to its residential loan customers related to loans that will be held for sale by obtaining corresponding best-efforts forward sales commitments with an investor to sell the loans at an agreed-upon price at the time the interest rate locks are issued to the customers. Forward sales commitments that meet the definition of derivative financial instruments under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging , are carried at their fair values in other assets or other liabilities in the consolidated financial statements . While such forward sales commitments generally served as an economic hedge to the mortgage loans held for sale and interest rate lock commitments, the Company did not designate them for hedge accounting treatment. Consequently, changes in fair value of the corresponding derivative financial asset or liability were recorded as either a charge or credit to current earnings during the period in which the changes occurred. The fair values of these derivative assets and liabilities recorded in the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2016 are summarized as follows (dollars in thousands) : June 30, 2016 Fair value recorded in other assets $ Fair value recorded in other liabilities The gross gains and losses on these derivative assets and liabilities recorded in non-interest income and expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the six months ended June 30, 2016 are summarized as follows (dollars in thousands) . At June 30, 2016, the impact of the net loss on derivative financial instruments was almost entirely offset by a corresponding increase in the fair value of loans held for sale.

Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Measurements	Note 15: Fair Value Measurements The fair value of an asset or liability is the price that would be received by selling that asset or paid in transferring that liability in an orderly transaction occurring in the principal market (or most advantageous market in the absence of a principal market) for such asset or liability. In estimating fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, the income approach and/or the cost approach. Such valuation techniques are consistently applied. Inputs to valuation techniques include the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. FASB ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows: Level 1 Inputs - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 Inputs - Inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as interest rates, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.) or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market data by correlation or other means. Level 3 Inputs - Unobservable inputs for determining the fair values of assets or liabilities that reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities. A description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth below. These valuation methodologies were applied to those Company assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value. There were no transfers between levels during the quarter ended June 30, 2016. In general, fair value is based upon quoted market prices, when available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable data. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that financial instruments are recorded at fair value. These adjustments may include amounts to reflect, among other things, counterparty credit quality and the company’s creditworthiness as well as unobservable parameters. Any such valuation adjustments are applied consistently over time. The Company’s valuation methodologies may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. While management believes the Company’s valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. Furthermore, the reported fair value amounts have not been comprehensively revalued since the presentation dates and, therefore, estimates of fair value after the balance sheet date may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein. Securities Available for Sale . Securities classified as available for sale are reported at fair value utilizing level 1 and level 2 measurements. For mutual funds and other equity securities, unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets are utilized to determine fair value at the measurement date and have been classified as level 1 in the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy. For all other securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The independent pricing service evaluations are based on market data. The independent pricing service utilizes evaluated pricing models that vary by asset class and incorporate available trade, bid and other market information. Because many fixed income securities do not trade on a daily basis, the independent pricing service applies available information as appropriate through processes such as benchmark curves, benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings, and matrix pricing, to prepare evaluations. In addition, the independent pricing service uses model processes, such as the Option Adjusted Spread model, to assess interest rate impact and develop prepayment scenarios. The models and processes take into account market conventions. For each asset class, a team of evaluators gathers information from market sources and integrates relevant credit information, perceived market movements and sector news into the evaluated pricing applications and models. The market inputs that the independent pricing service normally seeks for evaluations of securities, listed in approximate order of priority, include: benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data including market research publications. The independent pricing service also monitors market indicators, industry and economic events. Information of this nature is a trigger to acquire further market data. For certain security types, additional inputs may be used or some of the market inputs may not be applicable. Evaluators may prioritize inputs differently on any given day for any security based on market conditions, and not all inputs listed are available for use in the evaluation process for each security evaluation on a given day. Because the data utilized was observable, the securities have been classified as level 2 in the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy. Loans held for sale. Beginning on January 1, 2016, the Company elected to adopt the fair value option for all residential mortgage loans held for sale and to account for such loans at their fair values with changes in fair value recognized in earnings, consistent with the provisions in ASC 820. The Company accounted for held for sale loans that were originated prior to January 1, 2016 under the lower of cost or fair value option, with any corresponding adjustments recorded as a valuation adjustment, if necessary. Such fair value adjustments are recorded as a component of gain on sale of loans in the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements. The fair value of the mortgage loans held for sale are measured using observable quoted market or contract prices or market price equivalents and are classified as level 2 in the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy. Derivative Assets and Derivative Liabilities. Derivative assets and derivative liabilities are reported at fair value utilizing level 2 measurements. Derivative instruments with positive fair values are reported as assets and derivative instruments with negative fair value are reported as liabilities. The fair value of derivative assets and liabilities is determined based on prices obtained from a third party. Values of derivative assets and liabilities are primarily based on observable inputs and are classified as level 2 in the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy. The following table summarizes financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value (dollars in thousands) : Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Inputs Inputs Inputs Fair Value June 30, 2016 Securities available for sale U.S. Treasury securities $ — $ $ — $ Obligations of U.S. government corporations and agencies — — Obligations of states and political subdivisions — — Residential mortgage-backed securities — — Corporate debt securities — — Mutual funds and other equity securities — — Loans Loans held for sale Derivative assets Foreign currency forward contracts — — Derivative financial assets — — Derivative liabilities Derivative financial liabilities — — Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Inputs Inputs Inputs Fair Value December 31, 2015 Securities available for sale U.S. Treasury securities $ — $ $ — $ Obligations of U.S. government corporations and agencies — — Obligations of states and political subdivisions — — Residential mortgage-backed securities — — Corporate debt securities — — Mutual funds and other equity securities — — Derivative assets Foreign currency forward contracts — — Derivative liabilities Foreign currency forward contracts — — Certain financial assets and financial liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis; that is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). Impaired Loans . The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, periodically, a loan is considered impaired and is reported at the fair value of the underlying collateral, less estimated costs to sell, if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Impaired loans measured at fair value typically consist of loans on non-accrual status and restructured loans in compliance with modified terms. Collateral values are estimated using a combination of observable inputs, including recent appraisals, and unobservable inputs based on customized discounting criteria. Due to the significance of the unobservable inputs, all impaired loan fair values have been classified as level 3 in the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy. OREO. Non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities measured at fair value include OREO (upon initial recognition or subsequent impairment). OREO properties are measured using a combination of observable inputs, including recent appraisals, and unobservable inputs based on customized discounting criteria. Due to the significance of the unobservable inputs, all OREO fair values have been classified as level 3 in the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy. The following table summarizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value (dollars in thousands) : Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Inputs Inputs Inputs Fair Value June 30, 2016 Impaired loans $ — $ — $ $ OREO — — December 31, 2015 Impaired loans $ — $ — $ $ OREO(1) — — — — (1)OREO fair value was less than one thousand dollars.

The estimated fair values of financial instruments that are reported at amortized cost in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value, were as follows (dollars in thousands) : June 30, 2016 December 31, 2015 Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Amount Value Amount Value Financial assets: Level 1 inputs: Cash and due from banks $ $ $ $ Federal funds sold — — Level 2 inputs: Securities held to maturity Loans held for sale(2) — — Accrued interest receivable Level 3 inputs: Loans, net Mortgage servicing rights Financial liabilities: Level 2 inputs: Deposits $ $ $ $ Securities sold under agreements to repurchase Short-term borrowings — — Long-term debt Junior subordinated debt owed to unconsolidated trusts Accrued interest payable (2) Effective January 1, 2016, measured at fair value on a recurring basis. FASB ASC Topic 825 requires disclosure of the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities, including those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis or non-recurring basis. A detailed description of the valuation methodologies used in estimating the fair value of financial instruments is set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 or is described below. The fair value of loans, net reflects general changes in the interest rate curve used to calculate fair values based on cash flows. The carrying amount approximates fair value for federal funds sold and is classified as level 1 in the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy. The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is estimated by discounting the future cash flows and classified as level 3 in the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair value of short-term borrowings, which includes advances from the FHLB, is determined by discounting the future cash flows of existing advances using rates currently available on advances from the FHLB having similar characteristics and is classified as level 2 in the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy.

Liability for Loans Sold

Liability for Loans Sold.
Liability for Loans Sold	Note 16: Liability for Loans Sold The Company records an estimated liability for probable amounts due to the Company’s loan investors under contractual obligations related to residential mortgage loans originated for sale that were previously sold and became delinquent or defaulted, or were determined to contain certain documentation or other underwriting deficiencies. Under standard representations and warranties and early payment default clauses in the Company’s mortgage sale agreements, the Company could be required to repurchase mortgage loans sold to investors or reimburse the investors for losses incurred on loans (collectively “repurchase”) in the event of borrower default within a defined period after origination (generally 90 days), or in the event of breaches of contractual representations or warranties made at the time of sale that are not remedied within a defined period after the Company receives notice of such breaches (generally 90 days). In addition, the Company may be required to refund the profit received from the sale of a loan to an investor if the borrower pays off the loan within a defined period after origination, which is generally 120 days. The Company establishes a mortgage repurchase liability related to these events that reflects management’s estimate of losses on loans for which the Company could have a repurchase obligation based on a combination of factors. Such factors incorporate the volume of loans sold in current and previous periods, borrower default expectations, historical investor repurchase demand and appeals success rates (where the investor rescinds the demand based on a cure of the defect or acknowledges that the loan satisfies the investor’s applicable representations and warranties), and estimated loss severity. Payments made to investors as reimbursement for losses incurred are charged against the mortgage repurchase liability. Loans repurchased from investors are initially recorded at fair value, which becomes the Company’s new accounting basis. Any difference between the loan’s fair value and the outstanding principal amount is charged or credited to the mortgage repurchase liability, as appropriate. Subsequent to repurchase, such loans are carried in loans on the Company’s balance sheet. Loans repurchased with deteriorated credit quality at the date of repurchase are accounted for under ASC Topic 310-30. The liability for loans sold of $2.0 million at June 30, 2016 represents the Company’s best estimate of the probable losses that the Company will incur for various early default provisions and contractual representations and warranties associated with the sales of mortgage loans. Because the level of mortgage loan repurchase losses depends upon economic factors, investor demand strategies and other external conditions that may change over the life of the underlying loans, the level of the liability for mortgage loan repurchase losses is difficult to estimate and requires considerable management judgment. In addition, the Company does not service the loans that it sells to investors and is generally unable to track the remaining unpaid balances or delinquency status after sale. As a result, there may be a range of possible losses in excess of the estimated liability that cannot be estimated. Management maintains regular contact with the Company’s investors to monitor and address their repurchase demand practices and concerns.
