Directors of First Merchants Corporation and First Merchants Bank. Johnson, President and Chief Executive Officer for the Detroit Economic Growth Corporation, has focused on job creation, capital investment and small business growth for the City of
Detroit since 2018. Sondhi, Founder and President of Sondhi Solutions, headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana, oversees the strategy of his IT staffing and consulting company serving small to <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">mid-sized</FONT>
enterprise businesses and governmental agencies. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">&#147;First Merchants&#146; Board of Directors is pleased to welcome Mr.&nbsp;Johnson

and business acumen to our Board.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Most recently, Johnson was integral in bringing Fiat Chrysler&#146;s $4.5&nbsp;billion investment

communities.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Sondhi, an entrepreneur, founded Sondhi Solutions in 2009. Under his leadership as Chief Executive Officer, the
company has quickly grown and expanded across the United States. Sondhi Solutions has been named an Inc. 5000 member, as one of the fastest-growing businesses in the United States, on three separate occasions. </P>

Connect, a consulting agency designed to bridge the gap between economic developers and site consultants. He also serves as a member of the International Economic Development Council. </P>
