IOWA CITY, IA (June 18, 2008) MidWestOne Financial Group, Inc. (the Company) announced today that, because of the severe flooding throughout the Iowa City and Coralville, Iowa, region and the resulting inability of many of the Companys shareholders to safely and conveniently attend the Companys 2008 annual meeting scheduled for today, the Company decided to open the annual meeting at the previously scheduled time and location and then immediately adjourn the meeting. As a result, no substantive business was conducted at todays meeting. The Companys shareholders approved a motion to reconvene the adjourned meeting on Wednesday, June 25, 2008, at 3:00 p.m. at the Sheraton Iowa City Hotel, located at 210 S. Dubuque Street, Iowa City, Iowa. At the reconvened meeting on June 25, the Company anticipates conducting the business set forth in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders and accompanying proxy statement and annual report that were mailed to the Companys shareholders on or about May 22, 2008. Proxies previously submitted by shareholders will remain valid at the reconvened meeting. Accordingly, shareholders do not need to resubmit their proxies.
