PROSPECTUS
OLD NATIONAL BANCORP
5,000,000 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
Resale of Shares by Selling Shareholders
We may, from time to time, make acquisitions. Such acquisitions will
not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws;
however, persons that acquire shares from us pursuant to such acquisitions may,
with our written consent, use this prospectus to resell such shares of our
common stock. Sales by such persons may be made in a number of ways, including,
without limitation:
o through the New York Stock Exchange, in the over-the-counter
market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise;
o directly to purchasers or through agents, brokers, dealers or
underwriters; and
o at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices
related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated
prices.
Selling shareholders may effect such transactions by selling the shares
to or through broker-dealers or underwriters. These broker-dealers, if used, may
receive discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling shareholders or
from the purchaser of the shares. The selling shareholders will receive the
purchase price of the shares of stock sold less any such discounts, concessions
or commissions. The selling shareholders will be responsible for any such
discounts, concessions or commissions. We will not receive any proceeds from the
sale of the shares by the selling shareholders.
We will furnish this prospectus to the security holders of the
companies that we intend to acquire prior to the completion of the acquisition.
In addition, if we consummate any acquisition that would have a material
financial effect on us, a post-effective amendment to this registration
statement will be filed.
Other Information
Our common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the
ticker symbol "ONB."
These securities are not savings or deposit accounts or other obligations of a
bank and are not insured by the FDIC or any other governmental agency.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities
commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the
adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a
criminal offense.

OLD NATIONAL BANCORP
We are a bank holding company that operates 133 banking offices and 252
ATM locations in Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky through our bank subsidiaries.
These banks provide a wide range of financial services, including:
o commercial, consumer and real estate loans;
o deposit products;
o issuing and servicing credit cards;
o leasing;
o letters of credit; and
o safe deposit facilities.
We also own nonbank subsidiaries which provide additional financial
services incidental to its operations, including:
o securities brokerage services;
o fiduciary and trust services;
o investment services; and
o issuance and reinsurance of credit life, accident, health,
life, property and casualty insurance.
We were incorporated in 1982 in the State of Indiana as the holding
company of Old National Bank in Evansville, Indiana. Old National Bank has
provided banking services since 1834. We began an acquisition program in 1985
and have acquired 38 financial institutions since that time. We continue to
explore opportunities to acquire banks, savings associations and non-bank
companies and are currently reviewing and analyzing potential acquisitions, as
well as engaging in discussions or negotiations concerning potential
acquisitions. There can be no assurance that any of these discussions or
negotiations will result in definitive agreements or consummated acquisitions.
3
As a legal entity separate and distinct from its bank and non-bank
subsidiaries, our principal sources of revenues are dividends and fees from its
bank and non-bank subsidiaries. The subsidiaries that operate in the banking,
insurance and securities business can pay dividends only if they are in
compliance with the applicable regulatory requirements imposed on them by
federal and state regulatory authorities.
REGULATORY MATTERS
As a bank holding company, we are subject to regulation, supervision
and examination by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System under
the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. For a discussion of certain
material elements of the regulatory framework applicable to bank holding
companies and their subsidiaries and certain specific information relevant to
us, see our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2002 which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus.
This regulatory framework is intended primarily for the protection of
depositors and the federal deposit insurance funds and not for the protection of
security holders or creditors. The various government rules, regulations and
requirements that apply to us impact our business and activities. A change in
applicable statutes, rules, regulations and requirements that apply to us impact
business and activities may have a material effect on our business and earnings.
In addition, our business and earnings are affected by general economic
conditions, legislation and actions of regulatory authorities.
Under policy of the Federal Reserve, a bank holding company is expected
to act as a source of financial strength for its bank subsidiaries and to commit
resources to support such banks. As a result, the Federal Reserve may require us
to commit resources to our bank subsidiaries.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the shares of
our common stock offered hereby. All proceeds from the sale of such shares of
our common stock will be received by the selling shareholders, as described
below. See "Selling Shareholders" and "Plan of Distribution."
SELLING SHAREHOLDERS
This prospectus relates to the offer for sale or other distribution of
shares of our common stock by persons who will acquire shares of our common
stock in connection with our acquisition of businesses. Such selling
shareholders will be identified from time to time by supplements to this
prospectus.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The shares may be sold or distributed from time to time by the selling
shareholders to be named in a prospectus supplement, by their permitted donees
or transferees, or by their other successors in interest. The selling
shareholders may sell their shares at market prices prevailing at the time of
sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices,
or at fixed prices, which may be changed. Each selling shareholder may reserve
the right to accept or reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of
shares, whether the purchase is to be made directly or through agents.
4
The selling shareholders may offer their shares at various times in one
or more of the following transactions:
o in ordinary brokers' transactions and transactions in which
the broker solicits purchasers;
o in transactions involving cross or block trades or otherwise
on The New York Stock Exchange;
o in transactions in which brokers, dealers or underwriters
purchase the shares as principal and resell the shares for
their own accounts pursuant to this prospectus;
o in transactions "at the market" to or through market makers in
the common stock or into an existing market for our common
stock;
o in other ways not involving market makers or established
trading markets, including direct sales of the shares to
purchasers or sales of the shares effected through agents;
o through transactions in options, swaps or other derivatives
which may or may not be listed on an exchange;
o in privately negotiated transactions; or
o in a combination of any of the foregoing transactions.
The selling shareholders also may sell their shares in accordance with
Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
From time to time, one or more of the selling shareholders may pledge
or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares owned by them. If the
selling shareholders default in performance of the secured obligations, the
pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares from time to time. The
selling shareholders also may transfer and donate shares in other permitted
circumstances. The number of shares beneficially owned by selling shareholders
who transfer, donate, pledge or grant a security interest in their shares will
decrease as and when the selling shareholders take these actions. The plan of
distribution for the shares offered and sold under this prospectus will
otherwise remain unchanged, except that the permitted transferees, donees or
other successors in interest will be selling shareholders for purposes of this
prospectus.
The selling shareholders may use brokers, dealers, underwriters or
agents to sell their shares. The persons acting as agents may receive
compensation in the form of commissions, discounts or concessions. This
compensation may be paid by the selling shareholders or the purchasers of the
shares for whom such persons may act as agent, or to whom they may sell as
principal, or both. The compensation as to a particular person may be less than
or in excess of customary commissions. The selling shareholders and any agents
or broker-dealers that participate with the selling shareholders in the offer
and sale of the shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of
the Securities Act. Any commissions they receive and any profit they realize on
the resale of the shares by them may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and
commissions under the Securities Act. Neither we nor any selling shareholders
can presently estimate the amount of such compensation.
If a selling shareholder sells shares in an underwritten offering, the
underwriters may acquire the shares for their own account and resell the shares
from time to time in one or more
5
transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering
price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. In such event, we
will set forth in a supplement to this prospectus the names of the underwriters
and the terms of the transactions, including any underwriting discounts,
concessions or commissions and other items constituting compensation of the
underwriters and broker-dealers. The underwriters from time to time may change
any public offering price and any discounts, concessions or commissions allowed
or reallowed or paid to broker-dealers. Unless otherwise set forth in a
supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the shares will be
subject to certain conditions, and the underwriters will be obligated to
purchase all of the shares specified in the supplement if they purchase any of
the shares.
We intend to advise the selling shareholders that during such time as
they may be engaged in a distribution of the shares, they are required to comply
with Regulation M under the Exchange Act. With certain exceptions, Regulation M
prohibits any selling shareholder, any affiliated purchasers and any
broker-dealer or other person who participates in such distribution from bidding
for or purchasing, or attempting to induce any person to bid for or purchase,
any security which is the subject of the distribution until the entire
distribution is complete. Regulation M also prohibits any bids or purchases made
in order to stabilize the price of a security in connection with the
distribution of that security. The foregoing restrictions may affect the
marketability of the shares.
We may agree to indemnify the selling shareholders against certain
liabilities, including certain liabilities under the Securities Act.
It is possible that a significant number of shares could be sold at the
same time. Such sales, or the perception that such sales could occur, may
adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock.
We will bear all expenses (other than selling commissions, underwriting
discounts and fees and expenses of counsel to any selling shareholder) of the
selling shareholders in connection with the registration and sale of the shares
pursuant to this registration statement. To the extent required, we will file
during any period in which offers or sale are being made, one or more
supplements to this prospectus to set forth the name of selling stockholders and
any other material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed.
LEGAL MATTERS
Certain legal matters relating to the validity of shares of our common
stock offered pursuant to this prospectus will be passed upon for us by Krieg
DeVault LLP, Indianapolis, Indiana.
EXPERTS
Our consolidated financial statements incorporated into this prospectus
by reference to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2002 have been so incorporated in reliance on the report of
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent accountants, given on the authority of

PART II
INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
Item 20. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Chapter 23-1-37 of the Indiana Business Corporation Law (the "IBCL")
gives corporations the power to indemnify officers and directors under certain
circumstances.
The Registrant's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation provide
that the Registrant will indemnify, under certain circumstances, any person
which is or was a director, officer or employee of the Registrant or of any
other corporation for which he is or was serving in any capacity at the request
of the Corporation against all liability and expense that may be incurred by him
in connection with any claim, action, suit or proceeding against them.
Additionally, under the IBCL, a director of the Registrant will not be
liable to shareholders for any action taken as a director, or any failure to
take any action, unless (1) the director has breached or failed to perform his
duties as a director in good faith with the care an ordinarily prudent person in
a like position would exercise under similar circumstances and in a manner the
director reasonably believes to be in the best interests of the corporation; and
(2) such breach or failure to perform constitutes willful misconduct or
recklessness.
The Registrant also has policies insuring its officers and directors
against certain liabilities for action taken in such capacities, including
liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").
See "Item 22. Undertakings" for a description of the SEC's position
regarding the indemnification of directors and officers for liabilities arising
under the Securities Act.
Item 21. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules.
(a) The exhibits to this registration statement are listed in the
attached Exhibit Index.
(b) Not applicable
(c) Not applicable
Item 22. Undertakings.
(a) The Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales
are being made, a post-effective amendment to this
registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by
Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of
1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or
events arising after the effective date of
the registration statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereto)
which, individually or in the aggregate,
represent a fundamental change in the
information set forth in this registration
statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any increase or decrease in volume of
securities offered (if the total dollar
value of securities offered would not exceed
that which was registered) and any deviation
from the low or high end of the estimated
maximum offering range may be reflected in
the form of prospectus filed with the
Commission
9
pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the
aggregate, the changes in volume and price
represent no more than a 20% change in the
maximum aggregate offering price set forth
in the "Calculation of Registration Fee"
table in the effective registration
statement.
(iii) To include any material information with
respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in the registration
statement or any material change to such
information in the registration statement.
Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and
(a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the registration statement
is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3, and the
information required to be included in a
post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is
contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished
to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to
section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by
reference in the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability
under the Securities Act of 1933, each such
post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a
post-effective amendment any of the securities being
registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.
(b) The Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining
any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of a registrant's
Annual Report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling
persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise,
the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by each
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will
be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to respond to requests
for information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant
to Item 4, 10(b), 11 or 13 of this Form, within one business day of receipt of
such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or
other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents
filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the
date of responding to the request.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to supply by means of a
post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the
company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and
included in the registration statement when it became effective.
