Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On May 31, 2015, UMB Financial Corporation (“UMB”) completed its previously announced merger with Marquette Financial Companies, a Minnesota corporation (“Marquette”). Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 15, 2014 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among UMB, Marquette, the beneficial owners of all of the outstanding shares of Marquette, and Lakes Merger Sub LLC, a Missouri limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of UMB (“Merger Sub”), Marquette was merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”), with Merger Sub surviving the Merger. Immediately thereafter, Merger Sub was merged with and into UMB, with UMB surviving the merger.

At the effective time of the Merger, each share of Marquette common stock issued and outstanding as of the effective time was converted into and constituted the right to receive 9.2295 shares of UMB common stock, or approximately 3.470 million shares of UMB common stock in the aggregate, which is subject to a possible post-closing adjustment as provided in the Merger Agreement. The market value of the shares of UMB common stock issued at the effective time of the Merger was approximately $179.7 million, based on UMB’s closing stock price of $51.79 on May 29, 2015.

The foregoing summary of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which was attached as Exhibit 2.1 to UMB’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed December 15, 2014.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

The information regarding the issuance of shares of UMB common stock set forth in Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated in its entirety herein by reference. The issuance of such shares at the effective time of the Merger was a private transaction exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

The information provided under Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is being furnished and is not deemed to be “filed” with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section.
