EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form S-3D (Registration No. 333-235739) is being filed to reflect the amendment and restatement of the Wilson Bank Holding Company Amended and Restated Dividend Reinvestment Plan that was adopted by the Board of Directors of Wilson Bank Holding Company on March 29, 2021. The amendment and restatement of the Amended and Restated Dividend Reinvestment Plan modifies the Amended and Restated Dividend Reinvestment Plan to allow Wilson Bank Holding Company to retain, unless a participant in the Amended and Restated Dividend Reinvestment Plan elects otherwise, that portion of any cash dividend paid to a participant on shares of its common stock that is not sufficient to purchase a whole share of common stock until such time as such amounts that have previously been retained, when combined with any portion of a dividend subsequently paid, equals the amount necessary to acquire an additional share of common stock in connection with the payment of a future dividend. The text of the prospectus, as amended and restated for the Amended and Restated Dividend Reinvestment Plan, is set forth below. The registration fees in respect of the shares of common stock registered under the Registration Statement were paid at the time of the original filing of the Registration Statement.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

We make statements in this Prospectus, in accompanying prospectus supplements, if any, and in our filings with the Commission that are incorporated by reference into this Prospectus regarding our outlook or expectations for earnings, revenues, expenses and/or other matters regarding or affecting us that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as “expect,” “intend,” “should,” “may,” “could,” “believe,” “suspect,” “anticipate,” “seek,” “plan,” “estimate” and other similar words and expressions, but other statements not based on historical fact may also be considered forward-looking.

Forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over time. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. We do not assume any duty and do not undertake to update our forward-looking statements. Actual results or future events could differ, possibly materially, from those that we anticipated in our forward-looking statements, and future results could differ materially from our historical performance.

Our forward-looking statements are subject to the risks and uncertainties described in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our other filings with the Commission that are incorporated by reference into this Prospectus (including, without limitation, under the heading “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information” in such filings and in our “Risk Factors” sections below and in our Forms 10-K and Forms 10-Q). Our forward-looking statements may also be subject to other risks and uncertainties, including those discussed elsewhere in this Prospectus and in our other filings with the Commission.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our Common Stock involves risks, including risks related to our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. You should participate in the Plan after you have independently researched your investment decision and you have considered the potential risks of participation in the Plan and investing in shares of our Common Stock including those described below and as well as those potential risks described in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, which report is incorporated by reference into this Prospectus. You should also review the risk factors that will be set forth in other documents that we file with the Commission after the date of this Prospectus. See “Where You Can Find More Information.” Additional risk factors may also be set forth in any applicable prospectus supplement.

Risks Related to the Purchase of Shares Under the Plan

You will not know the price of our common stock at the time you make an investment decision.

Although we describe generally in this Prospectus how the price of the Common Stock we are selling under the Plan will be determined, you will not know the price of the Common Stock you are purchasing under the Plan at the time you authorize the investment or elect to have your dividends reinvested. Additionally, the price of our Common Stock may fluctuate between the time you decide to purchase shares of our Common Stock under the Plan and the time of actual purchase.

We may in the future issue additional shares of common stock.

The Board of Directors of the Company will continue to have authority to issue additional shares of Common Stock from time to time. Any future issuances of Common Stock may result in dilution of the value of the shares you acquire pursuant to the Plan.

Our management has discretion in the allocation of proceeds of this offering.

We intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Plan for general corporate purposes to support the growth and expansion of the Company and its subsidiaries. Our management, however, has discretion in determining the actual manner in which the net proceeds will be applied. The precise use, amounts and timing of the application of proceeds will depend upon, among other things, the funding requirements of our subsidiaries, the availability of other funds, and the existence of business opportunities. See “USE OF PROCEEDS” below for more information.

We may discontinue paying dividends in the future.

A substantial portion of our revenue and operating income is generated by our bank subsidiary. Accordingly, we are dependent on the earnings and cash flows of, and dividends and distributions or advances from, Wilson Bank to provide the funds necessary to meet our obligations. Our ability to pay dividends is materially dependent on the earnings of Wilson Bank. The amount of future dividends is at the discretion of our Board of Directors and principally depends upon our earnings, financial condition, the capital requirements of our bank subsidiary and other factors. There can be no assurance that we will continue to pay dividends on shares of our Common Stock, and if paid, the timing and amount of such dividends.

AMENDED AND RESTATED DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN

The following, in question and answer form, is a summary of the key provisions of the Plan. Those holders of Common Stock who do not wish to participate in the Plan will continue to receive cash dividends, if and when declared by our board of directors, by check or automatic deposit.

PURPOSE

1. What is the purpose of the Plan?

The Plan provides record owners of Common Stock with a simple and convenient way of investing cash dividends in shares of Common Stock without payment of any brokerage commission, service charge or other expense. To the extent such shares are purchased from us, we will receive additional funds to finance our continuing operations. The Plan offers eligible holders an opportunity to invest conveniently for the long-term. The Plan is not intended to provide a mechanism for generating short-term profits or engaging in other strategies involving rapid turnover of shares or proliferation of accounts. We accordingly reserve the right to refuse to allow participation in the Plan and to modify, suspend or terminate participation by otherwise eligible record owners who engage in, or who we believe may engage in, such practices or other practices we deem to be inconsistent with the purposes of the Plan or detrimental to the Plan or other participants.

ADVANTAGES

2. What are the advantages of the Plan?

As a participant in the Plan you may:

●

Purchase additional shares of Common Stock by reinvesting all of your cash dividends;

●

Simplify your record keeping of additional Common Stock purchases, since you will receive a statement after every investment; and

●

Withdraw from the Plan at any time.

PARTICIPATION

3. Who is eligible to participate?

All holders of Common Stock are eligible to participate in the Plan. You may participate only with respect to all of your shares of Common Stock.

4. How do I join the Plan?

If you are eligible to participate, you may join the Plan by signing an Authorization Card and returning it to us as follows:

Wilson Bank Holding Company

P.O. Box 768

Lebanon, Tennessee 37088

Attention: Stock Transfer Department

An Authorization Card may be obtained at any time by written request to us at the above address or by calling WBHC Stock Transfer Department at 615-443-5900. You may also join the plan on the shareholder portal maintained by the Company by clicking “Dividend Options” and choosing “Full Investment”.

5. When may I join the Plan?

If you are eligible to participate, you may join the Plan at any time. If we receive your properly executed Authorization Card specifying reinvestment of dividends before the record date for a dividend payment, reinvestment will commence with that dividend payment. However, if we receive your properly executed Authorization Card on or after a dividend record date, the reinvestment of dividends through the Plan will begin with the dividend payment following the next record date.

6. How does the Plan work?

Cash dividends on all of your shares of Common Stock may be reinvested automatically for you by us in additional shares of Common Stock. You may participate in the Plan only with respect to all of the cash dividends you would otherwise be entitled to receive.

ADMINISTRATION

7. Who administers the Plan?

We administer the Plan for participants, keep records and perform other duties relating to the Plan.

Our mailing address is:

Wilson Bank Holding Company

P.O. Box 768

Lebanon, Tennessee 37088

Attention: Stock Transfer Department

Our Stock Transfer department telephone number is (615) 443-5900. All completed Authorization Cards, requests for withdrawal, requests for certificates and all other written communications regarding the Plan should be sent to us at the above address (please include your Taxpayer Identification Number or Social Security Number in your correspondence with us).

COSTS

8. Are there any expenses to participants in connection with purchases under the Plan?

No. You will incur no brokerage commissions or service charges for the purchases made under the Plan. We will pay all costs of administration of the Plan. You may incur tax liability as a result of our payment of expenses in connection with open market purchases of shares for you as a Plan participant, as explained under Question 15.

PURCHASES

9. How many shares of Common Stock will be purchased for my Plan account and what is the source of shares purchased under the Plan?

If you become a participant in the Plan, the number of shares purchased for you will depend on the amount of your dividends and market prices of the Common Stock. You will receive that number of whole shares equal to the total amount invested, divided by the purchase price per share. No fractional shares will be issued.

In lieu of issuing fractional shares to a participant in the Plan, we will, unless a participant notifies us in writing that they do not wish us to do so, retain that portion of any dividend paid that is not in an amount sufficient to purchase a whole share Common Stock until a future investment date associated with a subsequent dividend when such amount, together with any other similarly held amount associated with subsequent dividends, is sufficient to purchase a whole share of Common Stock at the price determined as set forth in response to Question 11, at which time we will purchase an additional share of Common Stock for the participant on the next investment date.

Shares purchased under the Plan will be, at our discretion, either newly issued shares or shares purchased for Plan participants in the open market, or a combination of the foregoing. Newly issued shares will be purchased directly from us.

10. When will shares of Common Stock be purchased under the Plan?

In the months in which dividends are paid, dividends will normally be invested concurrently on the dividend payment date. No interest will be paid on funds held by us pending investment, including amounts held by us as described in response to Question 9.

PRICE

11. At what price will shares of Common Stock be purchased under the Plan?

If we elect to sell original issue shares to you, the price at which these shares will be purchased will equal the volume weighted average price of the reported sale prices of our Common Stock for the preceding thirty (30) days prior to the investment date of which we are aware; provided that we will not make purchases of original issue shares at less than their par value ($2.00 per share).

If we elect to purchase shares in the open market for your account, we will make these purchases at prevailing open market prices. The price to you will be the average price of all shares purchased. We commingle your funds with the funds of the other participants in making purchases for all participants.

REPORTS TO PARTICIPANTS

12. What reports will be sent to participants in the Plan?

After each investment for your account, you will receive a detailed statement showing the amount invested, the number of shares purchased and the price per share of each share purchased under the Plan. This statement will provide a record of the cost of purchases under the Plan and should be retained for tax purposes.

CERTIFICATES

13. Will stock certificates be issued for shares of Common Stock purchased under the Plan?

Certificates for shares of Common Stock purchased under the Plan will not be issued to you unless you request them, rather shares purchased will be credited to your account in book entry form. The number of shares credited to your account will be shown on your statement of account. This convenience protects against loss, theft or destruction of stock certificates, and reduces the costs to be borne by us.

A certificate for any number of whole shares credited to your account under the Plan will be issued on your written request, and the shares represented by that certificate will be withdrawn from your account. We will not hold certificates for shares of Common Stock issued under the Plan. Your written request should be mailed to us. Any remaining full shares will continue to be credited to your account. Dividends on all of your shares, including those represented by the certificate issued to you, will continue to be reinvested. Certificates for fractions of a share will not be issued under any circumstances.

TERMINATION OF PARTICIPATION OR THE PLAN ITSELF

14. How do I terminate participation in the Plan?

You may terminate your participation in the Plan at any time by notifying us in writing.

If your notice of termination is received on or after the record date for the next dividend, that dividend will be reinvested for you, but all subsequent dividends on those shares will be paid to you. If you terminate your participation in the Plan, we will return to you any funds held in your account associated with previously paid dividends that had not yet been invested in shares of the Common Stock at the time you terminated your participation in the Plan.

We may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time upon written notice mailed to each of the Plan's participants.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

15. What are the principal federal income tax consequences of participation in the Plan?

The Internal Revenue Service has ruled that shareholders participating in dividend reinvestment plans similar to the Plan are treated for federal income tax purposes as having received a taxable stock distribution equal to the fair market value of the amount of stock purchased with reinvested dividends (calculated under the Plan as the dollar amount of the reinvested dividends). To the extent distributions made by us to our shareholders are treated as made from our earnings and profits, the distributions will be dividends taxable as ordinary income except to the extent that we designate any portion of such dividend as a “capital gain” dividend or as “qualified dividend income” pursuant to federal income tax rules. Qualified dividend income is taxable at the long-term capital gain rates for individuals, provided that certain holding period requirements (generally at least sixty (60) days throughout the 120-day time period beginning sixty (60) days before the ex-dividend date) with respect to our stock have been met. Based on our historical practice of making dividend distributions from earnings and profits, participating shareholders can expect that the full amount of any distribution under the Plan will be a qualified dividend. Accordingly, Participants who purchase shares under the Plan through dividend reinvestment generally will recognize income in an amount equal to the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the investment date multiplied by the number of shares purchased (including any fractional interest in a share). The tax basis for shares purchased under these circumstances will be equal to the fair market value of the shares on the investment date (calculated under the Plan as the purchase price for such shares). The holding period for such shares will commence on the day after the investment date.

In the case of any shareholder for whom federal income tax withholding on dividends is required and in the case of a foreign shareholder whose income is subject to federal income tax withholding, we will reinvest dividends net of the amount of tax required to be withheld.

Dividends reinvested under the Plan by corporate shareholders may be eligible for the 70% dividends-received deduction.

A Participant whose fractional interests in shares of Common Stock are liquidated for cash under the Plan generally will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the cash payment and the Participant’s tax basis in the fractional interests. Whether any such gain or loss will be taxed as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss will depend upon the Participant’s holding period.

The foregoing summary of the principal federal income tax consequences is general and does not purport to cover every situation. Moreover, it does not include a discussion of state and local income tax consequences of participation in the Plan. You should consult with your own tax advisers regarding the federal, state and local tax consequences in your particular circumstances.

OTHER INFORMATION

16. Who should be contacted if there is a question about participation in the Plan?

The Plan is administered for the benefit of our shareholders. All notices, correspondence, questions or other communications should be addressed to Wilson Bank Holding Company, Attention: Stock Transfer Department, Dividend Reinvestment Plan, P.O. Box 768, Lebanon, Tennessee 37087. The conditions of participation in the Plan will be governed by the laws of state of Tennessee.

We will not be liable under the Plan for any act done by us in our role as Plan administrator carried out in good faith or for any good faith omission to act including, without limitation, any claims for liability:

●

arising out of failure to terminate a participant's participation in the Plan upon the participant's death prior to receipt of notice in writing of such death;

●

with respect to the prices at which shares are purchased or sold for the participant's account and the time such purchases or sales are made; and

●

relating to the value of the shares acquired for the participant's account.

17. What happens if we have a Common Stock rights offering, issue a stock dividend or declare a stock split?

Any shares of Common Stock distributed as a stock dividend or as a result of a stock split on shares held by the Plan administrator for a participant will be credited to the participant's account. In the event that we make available to holders of Common Stock rights to subscribe to additional shares, debentures or other securities, the full shares of Common Stock held for you under the Plan will be added to the other shares held by you in calculating the number of shares to which you have a right to subscribe.

18. May the Plan be modified or discontinued?

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. We also reserve the right to make modifications to the Plan. We will endeavor to notify Participants of any such suspension, termination or modification, but the absence of notification will not affect the effectiveness of the suspension, termination or modification. If we terminate the Plan, we will return to you any funds held in your account associated with previously paid dividends that had not yet been invested in shares of the Common Stock at the time that we terminated the Plan.

In addition, we may adopt rules and procedures for the administration of the Plan, interpret the provisions of the Plan and make any necessary determinations relating thereto. Any such rules, procedures, interpretations and determinations will be final and binding.

19. May a Participant pledge shares held in the Participant’s account under the Plan?

You may not pledge or assign any shares credited to your Plan account as a result of reinvested dividends or otherwise and any such purported pledge or assignment will be void. If you wish to pledge or assign shares held in your Plan account, you must first request a certificate for such shares. (See Question 13 regarding share certificates). Such shares when withdrawn from a Plan account may be so pledged, and the dividends payable on them may continue to be eligible for reinvestment under this Plan.

20. Does participation in the Plan entail any risks?

Yes. Participation in the Plan involves the purchase of shares of Common Stock. In purchasing stock, Participants take a certain risk with their money. Stock prices may fall or rise depending on financial and other developments at the Company, as well as circumstances in the broad stock market. General economic conditions and political events can also influence stock prices. We cannot provide any assurance that shares purchased under the Plan will, at any particular time, be worth as much or more than their purchase price. In other words, there is a risk that if a Participant sells the shares of Common Stock, he or she will receive less than what was paid for the shares. In addition, if we hold a portion of any previously paid dividend to a participant that was not sufficient to purchase a share of Common Stock as described in response to Question 9, such funds will be subject to our general creditors and any claim you have to such funds will be that of an unsecured, general creditor.

See the section entitled “Risk Factors.”

USE OF PROCEEDS

We do not know either the number of shares that will ultimately be purchased under the Plan or the prices at which the shares will be sold, and therefore we cannot determine how the proceeds will be used. We intend to add the net proceeds of sales under the Plan of these shares that are sold as original issue shares by us to our general funds to be available for general corporate purposes, which may include, without limitation, working capital, capital expenditures, investments in or loans to our wholly owned bank subsidiary, share repurchases, funding potential acquisitions and satisfaction of other obligations.

INDEMNIFICATION

The Tennessee Business Corporation Act (“TBCA”) provides that a corporation may indemnify any of its directors and officers against liability incurred in connection with a proceeding if (i) the director or officer acted in good faith, (ii) in the case of conduct in his or her official capacity with the corporation, the director or officer reasonably believed such conduct was in the corporation’s best interests, (iii) in all other cases, the director or officer reasonably believed that his or her conduct was not opposed to the best interest of the corporation, and (iv) in connection with any criminal proceeding, the director or officer had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. In actions brought by or in the right of the corporation, however, the TBCA provides that no indemnification may be made if the director or officer was adjudged to be liable to the corporation. In cases where the director or officer is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding instigated because of his or her status as an officer or director of a corporation, the TBCA mandates that the corporation indemnify the director or officer against reasonable expenses incurred in the proceeding. The TBCA also provides that in connection with any proceeding charging improper personal benefit to an officer or director, no indemnification may be made if such officer or director is adjudged liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the TBCA provides that a court of competent jurisdiction, upon application, may order that an officer or director be indemnified for reasonable expenses if, in consideration of all relevant circumstances, the court determines that such individual is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification, whether or not the standard of conduct set forth above was met.

Our bylaws provide that we shall indemnify and advance expenses to each of our directors or officers, or any person who may have served at the request of our board of directors or our Chief Executive Officer, as a director or officer of another corporation (and, in either case, his heirs, executors and administrators), to the fullest extent allowed by the laws of the State of Tennessee, both as now in effect or hereafter adopted. Our bylaws also provide that we may indemnify and advance expenses to any employee or agent of the Company who is not a director or officer (and his heirs, executors and administrators) to the same extent as to a director or officer, if the board of directors determines that to do so is in the best interests of the Company.

Our bylaws also provide that the indemnification rights contained therein do not exclude other indemnification rights to which a director or officer may be entitled under any statute, charter provision, bylaw, resolution adopted by the shareholders, resolution adopted by the board of directors, agreement, insurance purchased by us or otherwise, both as to action in his or her official capacity and as to action in another capacity.

We believe that our bylaw provisions related to indemnification on liability are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.

We have in effect a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy which provides coverage for our directors and officers. Under this policy, the insurer agrees to pay, subject to certain exclusions, for any claim made against a director or officer for a wrongful act by such director or officer, but only if and to the extent such director or officer becomes legally obligated to pay such claim.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Except to the extent the Plan administrator purchases shares of our Common Stock acquired under the Plan on the open market, the shares of Common Stock sold under the Plan will be distributed directly by us rather than through an underwriter, broker or dealer. There will be no brokerage commissions or other fees charged to participants in connection with the purchase of shares under the Plan.

LEGAL OPINION

The validity of the shares of Common Stock offered under the Plan has been passed upon for us by Bass, Berry & Sims PLC.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

The Registrant’s bylaws provide that the Registrant shall indemnify and advance expenses to each director or officer of Registrant, or any person who may have served at the request of Registrant’s board of directors or its Chief Executive Officer, as a director or officer of another corporation (and, in either case, his heirs, executors and administrators), to the fullest extent allowed by the laws of the State of Tennessee, both as now in effect or hereafter adopted. The bylaws also provide that the Registrant may indemnify and advance expenses to any employee or agent of the Registrant who is not a director or officer (and his heirs, executors and administrators) to the same extent as to a director or officer, if the board of directors determines that to do so is in the best interests of the Registrant.

The Registrant’s bylaws also provide that the indemnification rights contained in the bylaws do not exclude other indemnification rights to which a director or officer may be entitled under any statute, charter provision, bylaw, resolution adopted by the shareholders, resolution adopted by the board of directors, agreement, insurance purchased by the Registrant or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity.

The Registrant believes that its bylaw provisions related to indemnification and limitations on liability are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.

The Registrant has in effect a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy which provides coverage for its directors and officers. Under this policy, the insurer agrees to pay, subject to certain exclusions, for any claim made against a director or officer of the Registrant for a wrongful act by such director or officer, but only if and to the extent such director or officer becomes legally obligated to pay such claim.

Item 17. Undertakings

(a) The undersigned 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 thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the 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 pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent 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), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 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, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

II-2

(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 undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 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 the 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.

II-3
