$12,000,000.00 ; October 29, 2009
Cincinnati,Ohio & #160; (Effective Date)
Promise to Pay. On or before October 28, 2010 (the “Maturity Date”), the undersigned, COMMUNITY TRUST BANCORP, INC., a Kentucky corporation, whose address is 346 North Mayo Trail, P.O. Box 2947, Pikeville, Kentucky 41502 (hereinafter referred to as “Borrower”) for value received, promises to pay to the order of FIFTH THIRD BANK, an Ohio banking corporation, whose address is 38 Fountain Square Plaza, Cincinnati, Ohio 45263 (hereinafter referred to as “Lender”) the sum of TWELVE MILLION AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($12,000,000.00) (the “Revolving Credit Commitment”) plus interest as provided herein, less such amounts as shall have been repaid in accordance with this Third Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Promissory Note (the “Note”). The outstanding balance of this Note (the “Aggregate Principal Balance”) shall appear on a supplemental bank record and is not necessarily the face amount of this Note, which record shall evidence the balance due pursuant to this Note at any time. As used herein, “Local Time” means the time at the office of Lender specified in this Note. Lender, in its reasonable discretion, may loan hereunder to Borrower on a revolving basis such amounts as may from time to time be requested by Borrower, provided that: (a) the Aggregate Principal Balance at any time shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment, and (b) no Event of Default shall exist or be caused thereby. The Aggregate Principal Balance, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and any other charges, advances and fees, if any, outstanding hereunder, shall be due and payable in full on the earlier of the Maturity Date or upon acceleration of this Note.
On the date hereof, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Lender hereby extends to Borrower a committed revolving line of credit facility (the “Facility”) under which Lender shall make loans (the “Revolving Loans”) to Borrower at Borrower’s request from time to time during the term of this Note in amounts not exceeding the Revolving Credit Commitment. If the aggregate amount of Revolving Loans outstanding at any time under the Facility exceeds the limits set forth above on any such date, Borrower will immediately pay the amount of such excess to Lender in cash. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may borrow, repay, and reborrow under the Facility, provided that the principal amount of all Revolving Loans outstanding at any one time under the Facility will not exceed the Borrowing. In the event Borrower fails to pay such excess, Lender may, in their discretion, setoff such amount against Borrower’s or affiliate Bank accounts at Lender.
Request for Revolving Loan. Borrower may request an advance on the Revolving Credit Commitment (each advance, a “Revolving Loan”) by written notice to Lender, via facsimile transmission, electronic mail or otherwise, no later than 4:00 p.m. Local Time on the date Borrower shall request that such Revolving Loan be advanced. Lender shall make each Revolving Loan by crediting the amount thereof to Borrower’s account at Lender.
Interest Rate. The principal sum outstanding shall bear interest at a floating rate per annum equal to 2.25% in excess of the “LIBOR Rate” (the “Interest Rate”). The LIBOR Rate is the rate of interest (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next 1/8 of 1% and adjusted for reserves if Lender is required to maintain reserves with respect to relevant advances) fixed by the British Bankers’ Association at 11:00 a.m., London time, relating to quotations for the one month London InterBank Offered Rates on U.S. Dollar deposits as published on Bloomberg LP, or, if no longer provided by Bloomberg LP, such rate as shall be determined in good faith by the Lender from such sources as it shall determine to be comparable to Bloomberg LP (or any successor) as determined by Lender at approximately 10:00 a.m. Cincinnati, Ohio time on the relevant date of determination. The Interest Rate shall initially be determined as of the date of the initial advance of funds to Borrower under this Note and shall be effective until the first business day of the month following the one month period after the initial advance. The Interest Rate shall be adjusted automatically on the first business day each one month thereafter, commencing on the first business day of the month following the expiration of the initial Interest Rate determination under this Note.
In addition, notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, if, prior to or during any period with respect to the LIBOR Rate, any change in any law, regulation or official directive, or in the interpretation thereof, by any governmental body charged with the administration thereof, shall make it unlawful for Lender to fund or maintain its funding in Eurodollars of any portion of the advance subject to the LIBOR Rate or otherwise to give effect to Lender’s obligations as contemplated hereby: (i) Lender may, by written notice to Borrower, declare Lender’s obligations in respect of the LIBOR Rate to be terminated forthwith, and (ii) the LIBOR Rate with respect to Lender shall forthwith cease to be in effect, and interest shall from and after such date be calculated at the Prime Rate, and interest shall be paid on the first (1st) day of each calendar month. Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse and indemnify Lender from all increased costs or fees incurred by Lender subsequent to the date hereof relating to the offering of rates of interest based upon the LIBOR Rate. Borrower’s right to utilize LIBOR Rate Index Pricing as set forth
in this Note shall be terminated automatically if Lender, by telephonic notice, shall notify Borrower that one, two, three, four or six month LIBOR Rates are not readily available in the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate Market, or that, by reason of circumstances affecting such Market, adequate and reasonable methods do not exist for ascertaining the rate of interest applicable to such deposits. In such event, amounts outstanding hereunder shall bear interest at a rate equal to Lender’s Prime Rate or such other rate of interest as may be agreed to between Lender and Borrower.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Note, in no event shall the interest rate charged on the Revolving Credit Commitment exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted under applicable state and/or federal usury laws. Any payment of interest that would be deemed unlawful under applicable laws for any reason shall be deemed received on account of, and will automatically be applied to reduce, the principal sum outstanding and any other sums (other than interest) due and payable to Lender under this Note, and the provisions hereof shall be deemed amended to provide for the highest rate of interest permitted under applicable law.
Payment of Interest. Interest shall be payable montly in arrears with each interest payment due on the last day of each month commencing on October 31, 2009 and continuing on the last day of each month thereafter.
Location/Application of Payments. Principal and interest payments shall be made at Lender’s address above unless otherwise designated by Lender in writing. Each payment hereunder shall be applied first to advanced costs, charges and fees, then to accrued interest, and then to principal, which will be repaid in inverse chronological order of maturity.

Section 7. Remedies. In addition to any other remedy permitted by law, upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default, Lender may at any time, without notice:
7.1 Apply the Collateral to this Note or such other Obligations, whether due or not.
7.2 Lender may, at its option, proceed to enforce and protect its rights by an action at law or in equity or by any other appropriate proceedings; provided that this Note and the Obligations shall be accelerated automatically and immediately if the Event of Default is a filing under the Bankruptcy Code.
7.3 Notwithstanding any other legal or equitable rights of Lender, Lender, in the Event of
Default, is:
(a) hereby irrevocably appointed and constituted attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, to exercise all rights of ownership with respect to the Collateral including, but not limited to, the right to collect all income or other distributions arising therefrom and to exercise all voting rights connected with the Collateral; and
(b) is hereby given full power to collect, sell, assign, transfer and deliver all of said Collateral or any part thereof, or any substitutes therefore, or any additions thereto, through any private or public sale without either demand or notice to Borrower, or any advertisement, the same being hereby expressly waived, at which sale Lender is authorized to purchase said property
or any part thereof, free from any right of redemption on the part of Borrower, which is hereby expressly waived and released.
7.4 In case of sale for any cause, after deducting all costs and expenses of every kind, Lender may apply, as it shall deem proper, the residue of the proceeds of such sale toward the payment of any one or more or all of the Obligations of Borrower, whether due or not due, to Lender; after such application and the return of any surplus, Borrower agrees to be and remains liable to Lender for any and every deficiency after application as aforesaid upon this and any other Obligation.

7.6 Lender’s rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative, and may be exercised together, separately, and in any order. No delay on the part of Lender in the exercise any such right or remedy shall operate as a waiver. No single or partial exercise by Lender of any right or remedy shall preclude any other further exercise of it or the exercise of any other right or remedy. No waiver or indulgence by Lender of any Event of Default shall be effective unless in writing and signed by Lender, nor shall a waiver on one occasion be construed as a waiver of any other occurrence in the future.
Section 8. Miscellaneous.

If any payment is not paid when due (whether by acceleration or otherwise) or within 10 days thereafter, Borrower agrees to pay to Lender a late payment fee of $20.00. After an Event of Default, the Borrower agrees to pay to Lender a fixed charge of $25.00, or the Borrower agrees that Lender may, without notice, increase the above stated interest rate by six percent (6%), whichever is greater. Under no circumstances shall said interest rate be raised to a rate which shall be in excess of the maximum rate of interest allowable under the state and/or federal usury laws in force at the time of such change.
8.2 Prepayment. The Borrower may prepay all or part of this note, which prepaid amounts shall be applied to the amounts due in reverse order of their due dates. Partial prepayments shall not excuse and subsequent payment due.
8.3 Amendment and Restatement. This Third Amended and Restated Revolving Note (as
defined herein, the “Note”) is issued upon surrender of, and in exchange for, the Second Amended and Restated Revolving Note dated July 30, 2008, that matured on July 29, 2009 and subsequently was extended by written agreement between Lender and Borrower until October 29, 2009 (as extended, the “Second Amended Note”), that was issued upon surrender of, and inchange for, the Amended and Restated Revolving Note dated April 28, 2007, that matured on April 30, 2008 (the “Amended Note”). The Amended Note was issued upon surrender of, and in exchange for, the original Revolving Note dated April 28, 2006, that matured on April 28, 2007 (the “Original Note”). The issuance of this Note shall not be construed in any manner as a novation or any other extinguishment of the obligations arising under the Original Note, the Amended Note, or the Second Amended Note, or to affect the priority of any security interests granted in connection with any of the foregoing.
8.4 Entire Agreement. Borrower agrees that there are no conditions or understandings which are not expressed in this Note and the documents referred to herein.
8.5 Severability. The declaration of invalidity of any provision of this Note shall not affect any part of the remainder of the provisions.

Lender may perform Borrower’s obligations, or delay or fail to exercise any of its rights or remedies, without causing a waiver of those obligations or rights. A waiver on one occasion shall not constitute a waiver on another occasion. Borrower’s obligations under this Note shall not be affected if Lender amends, compromises, exchanges, fails to exercise, impairs or releases (i) any of the obligations belonging to any co-borrower, endorser or guarantor, (ii) any of its rights against any co-borrower, guarantor or endorser, or (iii) the Collateral or any other property securing the obligations.
