INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT

Item 8.01. Other Events.

On March 20, 2017, First United Corporation (the “Company”) completed its previously announced rights offering to shareholders (the “Rights Offering”) pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of 783,626 shares of its common stock at a subscription price of $11.93 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $9.35 million. The terms of the Rights Offering contemplated the possibility of a separate standby offering to certain accredited investors (the “Standby Offering”) in the event that the Rights Offering was not fully subscribed by the Company’s shareholders. The Company did not sell any shares of its common stock in the Standby Offering because the Rights Offering was fully subscribed by shareholders through a combination of the exercise of their basic subscription privileges and their oversubscription privileges. The Company’s press release announcing the closing of the Rights Offering is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and incorporated herein by reference.
