Fritz, President and Chief Executive Officer Dated: June 30, 1999 Exhibit 1 River Valley Bancorp Announces Stock Repurchase Program and Resignation of President MADISON, Ind.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 29, 1999--River Valley Bancorp (Nasdaq Small Cap Symbol:RIVR), an Indiana corporation which is the holding company for River Valley Financial Bank, based in Madison, announced today that the board of directors has approved the repurchase, from time to time, on the open market of up to 5 percent of the Corporation's outstanding shares of common stock, without par value, or 53,767 shares. Such purchases will be made subject to market conditions in open market or block transactions. According to James E. Fritz, president of the Corporation, the board believes that the Corporation's shares are currently undervalued by the market and that open market purchases will have the potential effects of enhancing the book value per share and growth in earnings per share of the Corporation's remaining outstanding shares. The board of directors also announced today that James E. Fritz intends to resign as the Corporation's president and chief executive officer and as a member of the Corporation's board of directors. Fritz, who is resigning for personal reasons, will remain in his current positions with the company until a qualified replacement is selected by the Corporation's board of directors. The board of directors has formed a search committee consisting of all outside directors which has begun the process of selecting and interviewing potential candidates. The board also hired a search firm to provide assistance in selecting a qualified candidate to replace Fritz. The search committee has already begun interviewing qualified replacement candidates. River Valley Financial Bank operates five full service offices and one drive-up facility in Madison and Hanover that offer a variety of deposits and lending services to retail and commercial customers in Jefferson and surrounding counties.
