C.The first literal paragraph on page 1 is hereby amended and restated, effective from and after the date hereof to read in its entirety as follows:


FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, GERMAN AMERICAN BANCORP, INC., a Indiana corporation with an address at 711 Main Street, Jasper, Indiana 47546 (the “Borrower”), hereby promises and agrees to pay to the order of STOCK YARDS BANK & TRUST COMPANY, a Kentucky banking corporation (“Lender”), having an address of 1040 East Main Street, Louisville, Kentucky 40206, an aggregate principal sum equal to the lesser of [i] TWENTY MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($20,000,000.00), or [ii] so much thereof as is advanced hereunder and not repaid, together with interest thereon as hereinafter provided, in lawful money of the United States of America, in the manner set forth herein, on or before December 28, 2016 (the “Final Maturity Date”). 


D.    The last literal paragraph which begins at the end of page 2 and continues on page 3 be and is hereby amended and restated, effective from and after the date hereof, to read in its entirety as follows: 


Borrower shall pay Lender a non-usage fee (the “Non-usage Fee”) calculated on a quarterly basis for each calendar quarter hereunder until and including the Final Maturity Date, and any other date that this Note is paid in full and canceled (the “Final Payment Date”).  The Non-Usage Fee applicable hereunder to a particular calendar quarter shall be computed by applying the rate of one-fourth of one percent (0.25%) to the difference between the face amount of this Note ($20,000,000.00) less the average amount of outstanding principal balance under this Note for the number of days that have elapsed from and including the first day of that particular calendar quarter and ending on the first to occur of the last day of that particular calendar quarter, the Final Maturity Date or the Final Payment Date.  The Non-usage Fee applicable hereunder to a particular calendar quarter shall be payable on the first to occur of the first day of the second calendar quarter next succeeding that particular calendar quarter, the Final Maturity Date and the Final Payment Date.  By way of example, the Non-usage Fee for the fourth calendar quarter of 2015 shall be calculated as of December 31, 2015 and shall be payable on April 1, 2016 (assuming neither the Final Maturity Date nor the Final Payment Date Note has occurred prior to April 1, 2016).  For the avoidance of doubt, the Non-usage Fee for each calendar quarter commencing prior to the Final Maturity Date or Final Payment Date that is not otherwise due and payable hereunder prior to the Final Maturity Date or Final Payment Date, as applicable, shall be due and payable in full on the Final Maturity Date or Final Payment Date, as applicable. 
1.2    This Amendment is not intended to, and shall not, affect a novation of the obligations expressed in the Revolving Note or the Loan Documents.  Except as expressly provided herein, the Revolving Note shall continue to be in full force and effect from and after the date of this Amendment as it was prior to the date hereof.
