CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS AND TERMS OF MERGER

2.1 Merger. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Date, PFSL will be merged with and into IBAC in accordance with the Merger Agreement, the DGCL and the BCL.

2.2 Conversion of PFSL Common Stock.

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, at the Effective Date each outstanding share of PFSL Common Stock will be converted into shares of IBKC Common Stock equal to the sum of (i) the PFSL Common Stock held by each PFSL stockholder multiplied by the Exchange Ratio; plus (ii) a cash payment for fractional shares pursuant to Section 2.2(d) (collectively, the “Merger Consideration”).

(b) Shares of PFSL Common Stock that are held by PFSL and any PFSL Subsidiary (other than shares held in a fiduciary capacity) shall not be considered to be outstanding and shall be cancelled (and not converted) by virtue of the Merger at the Effective Date and without any further action by any party.

(c) If, before the Effective Date, IBKC should split, reclassify, recapitalize or combine the IBKC Common Stock, or pay a stock dividend in IBKC Common Stock, or otherwise change the IBKC Common Stock into any other securities, or make any other dividend or distribution in respect of the IBKC Common Stock (other than normal cash dividends consistent with past practices as the same may be adjusted from time to time in accordance with or not in violation of this Agreement), and the record date therefore is prior to the Effective Date, then the Exchange Ratios will be appropriately and proportionately adjusted to reflect such split, reclassification, recapitalization, combination, stock dividend or other distribution or change.

(d) In lieu of issuing any fractional share of IBKC Common Stock which would otherwise be distributable to a PFSL stockholder as determined following application of Section 2.2(a)(i), each holder of PFSL Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled thereto, after aggregating into whole shares all fractional shares of IBKC Common Stock to which such holder is entitled by virtue of the Merger, upon surrender of the certificate(s) which represented PFSL Common Stock, will receive, without interest, cash equal to such fractional share multiplied by $57.54.

(e) No later than the Effective Date, IBKC shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent for the benefit of the holders of PFSL Common Stock, for exchange in accordance with this Section 2.2, certificates representing the shares of IBKC Common Stock and the estimated amount of cash to be paid in lieu of fractional shares of IBKC Common Stock. After the Effective Date, each holder of PFSL Common Stock, upon surrender of such holder’s Certificates in accordance herewith, will be entitled to receive the shares of IBKC Common Stock and cash for fractional shares into which such holder’s shares have been converted, less any applicable tax withholding. Until then, each Certificate for PFSL Common Stock will represent the number of whole shares of IBKC Common Stock and cash into which the shares of PFSL Common Stock represented thereby were converted, except that IBKC may refuse to pay any dividend or other distribution payable to holders of any unsurrendered Certificate for PFSL Common Stock (without any interest thereon) until surrender or if such dividend or distribution has reverted in full ownership to IBKC under its Articles of Incorporation. Whether or not a Certificate for PFSL Common Stock is surrendered, after the Effective Date it will not represent any interest in any Person other than IBKC.

(f) As soon as practicable after the Effective Date, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days following the Effective Date, IBKC or the Exchange Agent shall mail to each holder of record of a Certificate or Certificates a form of letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent) and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration into which the shares of PFSL Common Stock represented by such Certificate or Certificates shall have been converted pursuant to this Section 2.2. Upon proper surrender of a Certificate for exchange and cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with a properly completed letter of transmittal, duly executed, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefore, as applicable, (i) a certificate representing that number of shares of IBKC Common Stock to which such former holder of PFSL Common Stock shall have become entitled pursuant to this Agreement and the Merger Agreement and (ii) a check representing that amount of cash for fractional shares to which such former holder of PFSL Common Stock shall have become entitled pursuant to this Agreement and the Merger Agreement.

(g) In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and the posting by such person of a bond in such amount as IBKC may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof.

(h) If the Person surrendering a Certificate and signing the accompanying letter of transmittal is not the record holder thereof, then it shall be a condition of the payment of the Merger Consideration that: (i) such Certificate is properly endorsed to such Person or is accompanied by appropriate stock powers, in either case signed exactly as the name of the record holder appears on such Certificate, and is otherwise in proper form for transfer, or is accompanied by appropriate evidence of the authority of the Person surrendering such Certificate and signing the letter of transmittal to do so on behalf of the record holder; and (ii) the person requesting such exchange shall pay to the Exchange Agent in advance any transfer or other similar taxes required by reason of the payment to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered, or required for any other reason, or shall establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

2.3 PFSL Stock Options. Schedule 2.3(a) sets forth all outstanding options to purchase shares of PFSL Common Stock as of the date of this Agreement, whether or not then vested or exercisable (the “PFSL Options”), including the names of the holders thereof, the vesting and expiration dates thereof, and the exercise prices thereof. Immediately prior to the Effective Date, each PFSL Option shall, by reason of the Merger, be cancelled and converted into the right to receive in cash an amount (subject to required tax withholdings) equal to the difference between $16.00 and the exercise price of the option (the “Option Payment”). Prior to the receipt of the Option Payment, each holder of a PFSL Option shall execute a cancellation agreement, substantially in the form of Schedule 2.3(b).

SECTION III.

3.1 Time and Place of Closing. (a) The Closing will take place on a mutually agreed upon Business Day within forty-five (45) days subsequent to the last of (i) the date of receipt of all required federal or state regulatory agency approvals of the Merger and the expiration of all required waiting periods, and (ii) the date on which the stockholders of PFSL approve this Agreement at the Stockholders Meeting to be held pursuant to Section 7.1(b) of this Agreement; or such other date as the parties hereto may mutually agree. If all conditions in Section VIII hereof are satisfied, or waived by the party entitled to grant such waiver, at the Closing (i) the parties shall each provide to the others such proof of satisfaction of the conditions in Section VIII as the party whose obligations are conditioned upon such satisfaction may reasonably request, (ii) the certificates, letters and opinions required by Section VIII shall be delivered, (iii) the directors and appropriate officers of the parties shall execute, deliver and acknowledge the Merger Agreement, and (iv) the parties shall take such further action including (without limitation) filing the Merger Agreement as is required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Merger Agreement.

(b) If on any date established for the Closing all conditions in Section VIII hereof have not been satisfied or waived by each Warrantor entitled to grant such waiver, then either Warrantor, on one or more occasions, may declare a delay of the Closing of such duration, not exceeding ten (10) days, as the declaring Warrantor shall select, but no such delay shall extend beyond the last date set forth in subparagraph (c) of Section 9.1(c), and no such delay shall interfere with the right of either Warrantor to declare a termination pursuant to Section IX. The place of Closing shall be at the office of IBKC set forth in Section 10.7.

Any employee of PFSL or FCB who does not remain employed by FCB after the Effective Date or does not receive a severance payment in connection with the Merger shall receive a severance payment as if he or she were an employee of IBKC for the entire time he or she were an employee of PFSL or FCB.

(b) In the event of any termination of any PFSL or FCB health plan, IBKC and IBERIABANK shall make available to Continuing Employees and their dependents, employer-provided health care coverage under health plans provided by IBKC or IBERIABANK. Unless a Continuing Employee affirmatively terminates coverage under a PFSL or FCB health plan prior to the time that such Continuing Employee becomes eligible to participate in the IBKC or IBERIABANK health plan, no coverage of any of the Continuing Employees or their dependents shall terminate under any of the PFSL or FCB health plans prior to the time such Continuing Employees and their dependents become eligible to participate in the health plans, programs and benefits common to all employees and their dependents of IBKC or IBERIABANK. In the event IBKC or IBERIABANK terminates any PFSL or FCB health plan or consolidates of any PFSL or FCB health plan with any IBKC or IBERIABANK health plan, individuals covered by the PFSL or FCB health plan shall be entitled to immediate coverage under the IBKC or IBERIABANK health plan in accordance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, as amended, and the regulations issued thereunder, including limitations on pre-existing condition exclusions, nondiscrimination and special enrollment rights. All PFSL or FCB employees who cease participating in a PFSL or FCB health plan and become participants in a comparable IBKC or IBERIABANK health plan shall receive credit for any co-payment and deductibles paid under PFSL’s or FCB’s health plan, to the extent such credit would be provided under PFSL’s or FCB’s health plan, for purposes of satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements under the IBKC or IBERIABANK health plan, upon substantiation, in a form reasonably satisfactory to IBKC or IBERIABANK, that such co-payment and/or deductible has been satisfied.

4.4 Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) From and after the Effective Date through the sixth anniversary thereof, or until the final disposition of such Claim (as defined herein) with respect to any Claim asserted within the period, IBKC shall, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, and under the respective certificate of incorporation, bylaws or similar governing documents of PFSL and FCB, indemnify, defend and hold harmless each person who is now, or who has been at any time before the date hereof or who becomes before the Effective Date, an officer or director of PFSL, FCB or a PFSL Subsidiary (the “Indemnified Parties”) against all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), liabilities or judgments or amounts that are paid in settlement (which settlement shall require the prior written consent of IBKC, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of or in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, or administrative (each a “Claim”), in which an Indemnified Party is, or is threatened to be made, a party or witness, based in whole or in part on, or arising in whole or in part out of, the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of PFSL, FCB or a PFSL Subsidiary, if such Claim pertains to any matter arising, existing or occurring before the Effective Date (including, without limitation, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby), regardless of whether such Claim is asserted or claimed before, or after, the Effective Date. IBKC shall pay expenses in advance of the final disposition of any such action or proceeding to each Indemnified Party to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law (to the extent not prohibited by federal law) upon receipt of an undertaking to repay such advance payments if the Indemnified Party shall be adjudicated or determined to be not entitled to indemnification in the manner set forth below. Nothing in this Section 4.4(a), shall be deemed to preclude any rights to indemnification provided in the certificate of incorporation, bylaws or similar governing documents of PFSL and FCB with respect to matters occurring subsequent to the Effective Date to the extent that the provisions establishing such rights or limitations are not otherwise amended to the contrary.

(b) Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under Section 4.4, upon learning of any claim, shall notify IBKC thereof in writing as promptly as is practicable; provided, however, that failure to so notify IBKC shall not relieve IBKC and IBERIABANK from any liability that would otherwise arise under this Section 4.4 except to the extent such failure prejudices IBKC or IBERIABANK. IBKC and IBERIABANK shall have the right to assume the defense thereof and shall not be liable for any expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof, except that if IBKC and IBERIABANK do not assume or continue to pursue such defense, or counsel for the Indemnified Party advises in writing that issues raise conflicts of interest

between IBKC and IBERIABANK and the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnified Party may retain counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Party (and reasonably satisfactory to IBKC) at IBKC’s and IBERIABANK’s expense; provided, however, that (i) IBKC and IBERIABANK shall not be obligated to pay for more than one counsel for all Indemnified Parties in any jurisdiction except as may be required due to conflicts of interest; (ii) the Indemnified Parties will cooperate (to the extent reasonably appropriate under the circumstances) in the defense of any such claim; and (iii) IBKC and IBERIABANK shall not be liable for any settlement effected without the prior written consent of IBKC, which consent may be withheld unless such settlement is reasonable in light of such claims, actions, suits, proceedings or investigations against, and defenses available to, such Indemnified Party.

(c) PFSL and FCB will, for total premiums not to exceed $315,000 (the “Maximum Amount”), purchase a continuation of their current directors and officers liability insurance for a coverage period of three (3) years after the Merger, provided that if the amount of the annual premiums necessary to maintain or procure such insurance coverage exceeds the Maximum Amount, IBKC shall maintain the most advantageous policies of directors’ and officers’ insurance obtainable for an annual premium equal to the Maximum Amount.

(d) If IBKC or IBERIABANK or any of their successors or assigns (i) reorganizes or consolidates with or merges into or enters into another business combination transaction with any other Person or entity and is not the resulting, continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such reorganization, consolidation, merger or transaction or (ii) liquidates, dissolves or transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person or entity, then, and in each such case, proper provisions will be made so that such surviving corporation or transferee and its successors and assigns assume the obligations of IBKC and IBERIABANK set forth in this Agreement. The obligations of IBKC and IBERIABANK under this Section 4.4 are intended to be for the benefit of, and enforceable against IBKC and IBERIABANK directly by, the Indemnified Parties and their heirs and representatives and shall be binding on all respective successors and permitted assigns of IBKC and IBERIABANK. IBKC shall pay all reasonable costs, including attorneys’ fees, that may be incurred by any Indemnified Party in successfully enforcing the indemnity and other obligations provided for in this Section 4.4 to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law. The rights of each Indemnified Party hereunder shall be in addition to any other rights such Indemnified Party may have under applicable law. The provisions of this Section 4.4 shall survive the Effective Date.

PFSL shall use its best efforts to cause each person who is identified as an “affiliate” of PFSL pursuant to the two (2) immediately preceding sentences to deliver to IBKC, prior to the Effective Date, a written agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit II.

6.9 Certain Actions.

(a) Subject to Section 6.9(d) of this Agreement, PFSL agrees that, from the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Date or the termination of this Agreement, neither it nor any of its affiliates, nor any of the officers and directors of it or its affiliates shall, and that it shall cause its and its affiliates’ employees, agents and representatives (including any investment banker, attorney or accountant retained by it or any of its affiliates) not to, directly or indirectly, (i) initiate, solicit, encourage or knowingly facilitate any inquiries or the making of any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) have any discussion with or provide any confidential information or data to any Person relating to an Acquisition Proposal, or engage in any negotiations concerning an Acquisition Proposal, or knowingly facilitate any effort or attempt to make or implement an Acquisition Proposal, (iii) approve or recommend, or propose publicly to approve or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal or (iv) approve or recommend, or propose to approve or recommend, or execute or enter into any letter of intent, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement or other similar agreement or propose publicly or agree to do any of the foregoing related to any Acquisition Proposal.

(b) PFSL agrees that it will, and will cause its officers, directors and representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any activities, discussions or negotiations existing as of the date of this Agreement with any parties conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal informing them that the Board of Directors no longer seeks the making of any Acquisition Proposals.

(c) PFSL agrees that it will use reasonable best efforts to promptly inform its directors, officers, key employees, agents and representatives of the obligations undertaken in this Section 6.9.

(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.9(a) of this Agreement, if any Person after the date of this Agreement submits to PFSL’s board of directors an unsolicited, bona fide, written Acquisition Proposal, and PFSL’s board of directors reasonably determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that the failure to engage in discussions with such Person concerning such Acquisition Proposal may cause PFSL’s board of directors to breach its fiduciary duties to PFSL and its stockholders, and after consultation with its financial advisor, then, in such case, (i) PFSL may (A) furnish information about its business to such Person under protection of an appropriate confidentiality agreement containing customary limitations on the use and disclosure of all non-public written or oral information furnished to such Person, provided that PFSL must contemporaneously furnish to IBKC all such non-public information furnished to such Person, and (B) negotiate and participate in discussions and negotiations with such Person; and (ii) if PFSL’s board of directors determines that such an Acquisition Proposal is a Superior Proposal (defined below), PFSL’s board of directors may (subject to the provisions of this Section 6.9) (A) withdraw or adversely modify its approval or recommendation of the Merger and recommend such Superior Proposal or (B) terminate this Agreement, in each case, (i) at any time after five (5) Business Days following IBKC’c receipt of written notice (a “Notice of Superior Proposal”) advising IBKC that PFSL’s board of directors has received a Superior Proposal and enclosing a copy of the Acquisition Proposal, identifying the Person submitting the Superior Proposal, specifying the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal, and (ii) subject to IBKC’s Right of First Refusal (defined below). In the event IBKC elects not to exercise the Right of First Refusal, PFSL shall provide IBKC with a final written notice of acceptance before or simultaneous with accepting any Superior Proposal. For purposes of this Agreement, “Superior Proposal” means any unsolicited, bona fide, written Acquisition Proposal for consideration consisting of cash and/or securities, and otherwise on terms which PFSL’s board of directors determines, after consultation with its financial advisor, are more favorable to PFSL’s stockholders (in their capacities as stockholders) from a financial point of view than the Merger after giving effect to the provisions of Section 9.2 (or other revised proposal submitted by IBKC). For the purposes of this Section 6.9(d), an Acquisition Proposal shall be “bona fide” if the board of directors of PFSL reasonably determines that the Person submitting such Acquisition Proposal is capable, from a financial, regulatory and other appropriate perspectives, of consummating such Acquisition Proposal on the terms proposed.

(e) IBKC shall have the right (“Right of First Refusal”) for five (5) Business Days after receipt of Notice of Superior Proposal to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement as would enable PFSL to proceed with the Merger on the basis of such adjusted terms. If IBKC fails to exercise such Right of First Refusal within the time herein specified, PFSL shall be at liberty to accept the Superior Proposal, subject to the obligations of PFSL pursuant to Section 9.2 hereof.

6.10 Agreement as to Efforts to Consummate. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and its fiduciary duties under applicable law, each Warrantor agrees to use, and to cause its Subsidiaries to use, its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things, necessary, proper or advisable under applicable laws and regulations to consummate and make effective, as soon as practicable after the date of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, using its best efforts to lift or rescind any injunction or restraining order or other order adversely affecting the ability of any party hereto to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Warrantor shall use, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to use, its reasonable best efforts to obtain consents of all third parties and governmental bodies necessary or desirable for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. This Section 6.10 shall not require either Warrantor to waive any condition to such Warrantor’s obligation to consummate the Merger.

6.11 Operating Functions.

(c) By the Board of Directors of either Warrantor in the event that the Merger shall not have been consummated within nine months after the date of this Agreement; except that if within such period required regulatory approval has not been obtained, and the failure of the closing to have occurred on or before such date was not due to IBKC’s material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, IBKC may extend such date one or more times but not beyond twelve months after the date of this Agreement; or

(d) By the Board of Directors of either Warrantor in the event any approval of any Regulatory Authority required for consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby shall have been denied by final non-appealable action of such Regulatory Authority or if any such action taken by such Regulatory Authority is not appealed within the time limit for appeal; or

(e) By the Board of Directors of IBKC, in the event any such approval of any Regulatory Authority is conditioned upon the satisfaction of any condition or requirement that, in the reasonable opinion of IBKC, would so materially adversely affect its business or the economic benefits of the Merger as to render consummation of the Merger inadvisable or unduly burdensome, and the time period for appeals and request for reconsideration has run; or

(f) By the Board of Directors of either Warrantor, if the stockholders of PFSL fail to approve this Agreement, the Merger Agreement and the Merger, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby at the Stockholders Meeting; or

(b) In the event this Agreement is terminated by IBKC pursuant to Section 9.1(b) hereof because of a willful breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement by PFSL, or pursuant to Section 9.1(f) hereof if the failure of the stockholders of PFSL to approve this Agreement, the Merger Agreement and the Merger, occurs after the receipt by PFSL of an Acquisition Proposal, or pursuant to Section 9.1(h) hereof, or by PFSL pursuant to Section 9.1(k) hereof, and within twelve (12) months after the date of any such termination PFSL, without IBKC’s prior written consent, accepts an Acquisition Proposal, then PFSL shall pay IBKC $3.7 million (the “Termination Fee”) not later than the fifth Business Day following the date PFSL accepts such Acquisition Proposal.
