This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 2”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed on November 26, 2014 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), relating to the shares of common stock, par value $2.50 per share (“Common Stock”), of Summit Financial Group, Inc. (the “Issuer” or the “Company”). Unless specifically amended hereby, the disclosures set forth in the Schedule 13D remain unchanged. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 2 that are not otherwise defined herein have the meanings attributed to them in the Schedule 13D.

 

Item 2. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to remove John M. Eggemeyer, John T. Pietrzak, Mark G. Merlo and J. Mikesell Thomas as Reporting Persons. Following the recent establishment of a six-person investment committee by Castle Creek Capital V LLC (“CCC V”), the general partner of Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP (“Fund V”), no person other than Fund V and CCC V presently has beneficial ownership (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Act) of the shares of Common Stock held by Fund V.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

 

Fund V sold 248,244 shares of Common Stock, at a price of $26.95 per share, to the Issuer under the Issuer’s ongoing repurchase plan previously adopted by the Issuer’s board of directors (as further described in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed with the SEC on November 4, 2021). Following the transactions, Fund V owns 744,731 shares of Common Stock.
