through 450.1565 of the Michigan Business Corporation Act contain specific provisions relating to indemnification of directors
and officers of Michigan corporations. In general, the statute provides that (a) a corporation must indemnify a director or officer
who is wholly successful in his defense of a proceeding to which he is a party because of his status as such, and (b) a corporation
may indemnify a director or officer if he is not wholly successful in such defense, if it is determined as provided in the statute
that the director meets a certain standard of conduct and upon an evaluation of the reasonableness of expenses and amount paid
in settlement. The statute also permits a director or officer of a corporation who is a party to a proceeding to apply to the courts
for indemnification or advance of expenses, and the court may order indemnification or advancement of expenses under certain circumstances
set forth in the statute. The statute further provides that a corporation may, in its articles of incorporation, in its bylaws,
through a resolution, or through a contract provide indemnification in addition to that provided by statute, subject to certain
conditions set forth in the statute.</P>

the mandatory indemnification required by our articles of incorporation. The bylaws provide procedures and standards for determination,
evaluation and authorization of indemnification. Under the bylaws, we are required to pay or reimburse the reasonable expenses
incurred by a director or officer who is a party to a proceeding before final disposition of the proceeding if the person furnishes
a written undertaking to repay the advance if it is ultimately determined that the person did not meet the applicable standard
of conduct, if any, required by statute for indemnification. The indemnification provisions in our bylaws are enforceable as a
contract.</P>

Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Sections 450.1561
through 450.1565 of the Michigan Business Corporation Act contain specific provisions relating to indemnification of directors
and officers of Michigan corporations. In general, the statute provides that (a) a corporation must indemnify a director or officer
who is wholly successful in his defense of a proceeding to which he is a party because of his status as such, and (b) a corporation
may indemnify a director or officer if he is not wholly successful in such defense, if it is determined as provided in the statute
that the director meets a certain standard of conduct and upon an evaluation of the reasonableness of expenses and amount paid
in settlement. The statute also permits a director or officer of a corporation who is a party to a proceeding to apply to the courts
for indemnification or advance of expenses, and the court may order indemnification or advancement of expenses under certain circumstances
set forth in the statute. The statute further provides that a corporation may, in its articles of incorporation, in its bylaws,
through a resolution, or through a contract provide indemnification in addition to that provided by statute, subject to certain
conditions set forth in the statute.
Our articles of incorporation
require indemnification of any Macatawa director or executive who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding because he or she is or was a director or executive officer, or is
or was serving at the request of Macatawa in another capacity, to the fullest extent permitted by law. We may also indemnify any
person who is not a director or executive officer, if the indemnification is authorized by the board of directors.
Our bylaws implement
the mandatory indemnification required by our articles of incorporation. The bylaws provide procedures and standards for determination,
evaluation and authorization of indemnification. Under the bylaws, we are required to pay or reimburse the reasonable expenses
incurred by a director or officer who is a party to a proceeding before final disposition of the proceeding if the person furnishes
a written undertaking to repay the advance if it is ultimately determined that the person did not meet the applicable standard
of conduct, if any, required by statute for indemnification. The indemnification provisions in our bylaws are enforceable as a
contract.
Macatawa has entered
into Indemnification Agreements with certain of its directors that provide for additional indemnity protection for the directors,
consistent with the provisions of the Michigan Business Corporation Act.
In addition, Macatawa
maintains policies of director and officer liability insurance, under which directors and officers of the Company are insured against
certain liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties.

Item 9.
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 SEC 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)
and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is
contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 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 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 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.

Pursuant to the requirements
of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the
requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned,
thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Holland, State of Michigan, on May 5, 2015.
