ARTICLE I.  THE MERGER

 

1.01        The Merger.

 

(a)           General Description.  Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time (as defined in Article IX hereof), FCB shall merge with and into MainSource (the “Merger”). MainSource shall survive the Merger (sometimes hereinafter referred to as the “Surviving Corporation”) and shall continue its corporate existence under the laws of the State of Indiana pursuant to the provisions of and with the effect provided in the Kentucky Business Corporation Act and the Indiana Business Corporation Law, as amended.

 

(b)           Name, Officers and Directors.  The name of the Surviving Corporation shall be “MainSource Financial Group, Inc.” Its principal office shall be located at 2105 North State Road 3 Bypass, Greensburg, Indiana. The officers of MainSource serving at the Effective Time shall continue to serve as the officers of the Surviving Corporation, until such time as their successors shall have been duly elected and have qualified or until their earlier resignation, death or removal from office. The directors of the Surviving Corporation following the Effective Time shall be those individuals serving as directors of MainSource at the Effective Time until their successors have been duly elected and have qualified or until their earlier resignation, death, or removal as a director.

 

(c)           Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws.  The Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws of MainSource in existence at the Effective Time shall remain the Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws of the Surviving Corporation following the Effective Time, until such Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws shall be further amended as provided by applicable law.

 

(d)           Effect of the Merger.  At the Effective Time, the title to all assets, real estate and other property owned by FCB shall vest in the Surviving Corporation as set forth in KRS 271B.11-060 and in Indiana Code Section 23-1-40-6, as amended, without reversion or impairment. At the Effective Time, all liabilities of FCB shall be assumed by the Surviving Corporation as set forth in KRS 271B.11-060 and in Indiana Code Section 23-1-40-6, as amended.

 

(e)           Integration.  At the Effective Time and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the parties hereto currently intend to effectuate, or cause to be effectuated, the Merger, pursuant to Articles of Merger filed with the Kentucky Secretary of State and the Indiana Secretary of State. The parties agree to cooperate and to take all reasonable actions prior to or following the Effective Time, including executing all requisite documentation, as may be reasonably necessary to effect the Merger.

 

2



 

(f)            Certain Subordinated Debt.  At the Effective Time, MainSource will expressly assume the due and punctual payment of the principal of and any premium and interest on the FCB Bancorp, Inc., 6.00% Subordinated Notes Due October 15, 2025 according to their terms, and the due and punctual performance of all covenants and conditions thereof on the part of FCB to be performed or observed.

 

1.02        Reservation of Right to Revise Structure.  At MainSource’s election, the Merger may alternatively be structured so that (a) FCB is merged with and into any other direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of MainSource or (b) any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of MainSource is merged with and into FCB; provided, however, that no such change shall (x) alter or change the amount or kind of the Merger Consideration (as hereinafter defined) or the treatment (including, without limitation, the tax treatment) of the holders of common stock, $1.00 par value per share, of FCB (“FCB Common Stock”), (y) prevent the parties from obtaining the opinions of counsel referred to in Sections 7.01(h) and 7.02(h) or otherwise cause the transaction to fail to qualify for the tax treatment described in Section 1.03, or (z) materially impede or delay consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event of such an election, the parties agree to execute an appropriate amendment to this Agreement (to the extent such amendment only changes the method of effecting the business combination and does not substantively affect this Agreement or the rights and obligations of the parties or their respective shareholders) in order to reflect such election.

 

1.03        Tax Free Reorganization.  MainSource and FCB intend for the Merger to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) and related sections of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and that this Agreement shall constitute a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Sections 354 and 361 of the Code, and agree to cooperate and to take such actions as may be reasonably necessary to assure such result.

 

1.04        Absence of Control.  Subject to any specific provisions of this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties to this Agreement that neither MainSource nor FCB by reason of this Agreement shall be deemed (until consummation of the transactions contemplated here) to control, directly or indirectly, the other party or any of its respective Subsidiaries (as such term is defined below) and shall not exercise or be deemed to exercise, directly or indirectly, a controlling influence over the management or policies of such other party or any of its respective Subsidiaries.

 

ARTICLE II.
MANNER AND BASIS OF EXCHANGE OF STOCK

 

2.01        Consideration.

 

(a)           Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, each share of FCB Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (i) shares held as treasury stock of FCB, (ii) shares held directly or indirectly by MainSource, except shares held in a fiduciary capacity or in satisfaction of a debt previously contracted, if any, and (iii) Dissenting Shares) (the “FCB Outstanding Stock”) shall become and

 

3



 

be converted, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.04 below, into the right to receive in accordance with this Article:

 

(i)            0.9 shares (subject to adjustment as set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, the “Exchange Ratio”) of common stock, no par value, of MainSource (the “MainSource Common Stock”) (the consideration set forth in this Section 2.01(a)(i) being referred to in this Agreement as the “Stock Consideration”); and

 

(ii)           $7.00 in cash (the “Cash Consideration”).  The Cash Consideration and the Stock Consideration are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “Merger Consideration.”

 

(b)           Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, FCB shall secure an option cancellation agreement from each holder of an FCB Stock Option (as defined in Section 3.14(a)(iv)) providing that, as of the Effective Time, all outstanding and unexpired FCB Stock Options will become fully vested and be converted into the right to receive an amount of cash equal to the product of (i) the difference (if positive) between (A) the per share Merger Consideration, minus (B) the exercise price of such FCB Stock Option, multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of FCB Common Stock subject to such FCB Stock Option.  For purposes of this Section 2.01(b), the Stock Consideration component of the Merger Consideration referred to in sub-part (A)(i) of this Section 2.01(b) shall be valued at an amount equal to the product of (y) 0.9 and (z) the average of the daily closing sales prices of a share of MainSource Common Stock as reported on the NASDAQ for the 10 consecutive trading days ending on the third business day preceding the Closing Date (the “10 Day Average”).  At or prior to the Effective Time, FCB shall pay the FCB Stock Option holder the cash payments described in this Section 2.01(b) less such amounts as are required to be withheld or deducted under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign tax law with respect to the making of such payment.

 

2.02        Rights as Shareholders; Stock Transfers.  At the Effective Time, holders of FCB Common Stock shall cease to be, and shall have no rights as, shareholders of FCB, other than the right to receive any dividend or other distribution with respect to such FCB Common Stock with a record date occurring prior to the Effective Time. After the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of FCB of shares of FCB Common Stock.

 

2.03        Fractional Shares.  Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, no fractional shares of MainSource Common Stock and no certificates or scrip therefor, or other evidence of ownership thereof, will be issued in the Merger; instead, MainSource shall pay to each holder of FCB Common Stock who otherwise would be entitled to a fractional share of MainSource Common Stock an amount in cash (without interest) determined by multiplying such fraction by the 10 Day Average.

 

2.04        Exchange Procedures.

 

(a)           At and after the Effective Time, each certificate representing shares of FCB Common Stock shall represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

4



 

(b)           At or prior to the Effective Time, MainSource shall reserve a sufficient number of shares of MainSource Common Stock to be issued as part of the Merger Consideration. As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, but in no event more than five business days thereafter, MainSource shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of FCB Common Stock a letter of transmittal, in a form reasonably acceptable to MainSource and FCB, providing instructions as to the transmittal to the Exchange Agent of certificates representing shares of FCB Common Stock and the issuance of shares of MainSource Common Stock in exchange therefor pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.  The “Exchange Agent” shall be Computershare, Inc., or such other bank or trust company as may be agreed to by MainSource (which may be an affiliate of MainSource) and FCB, to effect the payment of the Merger Consideration to holders of FCB Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement.

 

(c)           MainSource shall cause (i) a check in the amount of cash that each holder of FCB Common Stock has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.01, (ii) a certificate representing that number of whole shares of MainSource Common Stock that each holder of FCB Common Stock has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.01, and (iii) a check in the amount of any cash in lieu of fractional shares or dividends or distributions which such holder shall be entitled to receive, to be delivered to such shareholder within five business days after receipt by MainSource or the Exchange Agent (as applicable) of certificates representing such shares of FCB Common Stock (“Old Certificates”) (or bond or other indemnity satisfactory to MainSource if any of such certificates are lost, stolen or destroyed) owned by such shareholder accompanied by a properly completed and executed letter of transmittal, in the form and substance reasonably satisfactory to MainSource and FCB.  No interest will be paid on any Merger Consideration that any such holder shall be entitled to receive pursuant to this Article II upon such delivery.

 

(d)           No dividends or other distributions on MainSource Common Stock with a record date occurring after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Old Certificate representing shares of FCB Common Stock converted in the Merger into the right to receive shares of such MainSource Common Stock until the holder thereof surrenders such Old Certificates in accordance with this Section 2.04. After becoming so entitled in accordance with this Section 2.04, the record holder thereof also shall be entitled to receive any such dividends or other distributions, without any interest thereon, which theretofore had become payable with respect to shares of MainSource Common Stock such holder had the right to receive upon surrender of the Old Certificate.

 

(e)           The stock transfer books of FCB shall be closed immediately upon the Effective Time and from and after the Effective Time there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer records of FCB of any shares of FCB

 

5



 

Common Stock. If, after the Effective Time, Old Certificates are presented to MainSource, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.04.

 

(f)            MainSource shall be entitled to rely upon FCB’s stock transfer books to establish the identity of those individuals, partnerships, corporations, trusts, joint ventures, organizations or other entities (each, a “Person”) entitled to receive the Merger Consideration, which books shall be conclusive with respect thereto. In the event of a dispute with respect to ownership of stock represented by any Old Certificate, MainSource shall be entitled to deposit any Merger Consideration represented thereby in escrow with an independent third party and thereafter be relieved from any and all liability with respect to any claims thereto.

 

(g)           If any Old Certificate shall have been lost, stolen, or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Old Certificate to be lost, stolen, or destroyed and the posting by such Person of a bond or other indemnity satisfactory to MainSource as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Old Certificate, MainSource will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen, or destroyed Old Certificate the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof.

 

(h)           Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at the Effective Time, all shares of FCB Common Stock that are held as treasury stock of FCB or owned by MainSource (other than shares held in a fiduciary capacity or in satisfaction of a debt previously contracted) shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist and no stock of FCB or other consideration shall be exchanged therefor.

 

(i)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party hereto shall be liable to any former holder of FCB Common Stock for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws.

 

2.05        Anti-Dilution Adjustments.  If MainSource changes (or establishes a record date for changing) the number of shares of MainSource Common Stock issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time by way of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar transaction with respect to the outstanding MainSource Common Stock, and the record date therefor shall be prior to the Effective Time, the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted so the shareholders of FCB at the Effective Time shall receive Merger Consideration that produces the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such action. No adjustment shall be made for the holders of shares of FCB Common Stock under this Section 2.05 solely as a result of MainSource issuing additional shares of MainSource Common Stock provided it receives fair market value consideration for such shares or such shares are issued in connection with the MainSource Plans (as hereinafter defined) consistent with past practice with respect to such issuances.

 

6



 

2.06        Dissenting Shares.  Shares of FCB issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by persons who have properly exercised, and not withdrawn or waived, appraisal rights with respect thereto (the “Dissenting Shares”) in accordance with KRS 271B.13-250 of the Kentucky Business Corporation Act (the “KBCA”), will not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, and holders of such shares of FCB Common Stock will be entitled, in lieu thereof, to receive payment of the appraised value of such shares of FCB Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of the KBCA unless and until such holders fail to perfect or effectively withdraw or lose their rights to appraisal and payment under the KBCA. If, after the Effective Time, any such holder fails to perfect or effectively withdraws or loses such right, such shares of FCB Common Stock will thereupon be treated as if they had been converted at the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon. FCB will give MainSource prompt notice of any demands received by FCB for appraisal of shares of FCB Common Stock. Prior to the Effective Time, FCB will not, except with prior consent of MainSource, make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands.

 

2.07        Preservation of Tax-Free Reorganization.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the tax opinions referred to in Sections 7.01(h) and 7.02(h) cannot be rendered (as reasonably determined, in each case, by Smith Amundsen LLC) as a result of the Merger potentially failing to satisfy the “continuity of interest” requirements under applicable federal income tax principles relating to reorganizations under Section 368(a) of the Code, then if agreed to by MainSource and FCB, the Exchange Ratio shall be increased to the minimum extent necessary to enable such tax opinions to be rendered.

 

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF FCB

 

On or prior to the date hereof, FCB has delivered to MainSource a schedule (the “FCB Disclosure Schedule”) setting forth, among other things, items the disclosure of which is necessary or appropriate either in response to an express disclosure requirement contained in a provision hereof or as an exception to one or more representations or warranties contained in this Article III or to one or more of its covenants contained in Article V.

For the purpose of this Agreement, and in relation to FCB and its Subsidiaries, “knowledge” means those facts that are actually known by the directors and executive officers of FCB and its Subsidiaries, or would reasonably be expected to have come to the attention of the directors and executive officers of FCB and its Subsidiaries based upon their periods of service and positions with FCB and its Subsidiaries without investigation.

(a)           Except as set forth in the FCB Disclosure Schedule, neither FCB nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor any of their respective assets, businesses, or operations, is a party to, or is bound or affected by, or receives benefits under, (i) any contract relating to the borrowing of money by FCB or any of its Subsidiaries or the guarantee by FCB or any of its Subsidiaries of any such obligation (other than contracts pertaining to fully-secured repurchase agreements, and trade payables, and contracts relating to borrowings or guarantees made in the ordinary course of business), (ii) any contract containing covenants that limit the ability of FCB or any of its Subsidiaries to compete in any line of business or with any Person, or to hire or engage the services of any Person, or that involve any restriction of the geographic area in which, or method by which, FCB or any of its Subsidiaries may carry on its business (other than as may be required by Law or any Governmental Authority) (as each are hereinafter defined), or any contract that requires it or any of its Subsidiaries to deal exclusively or on a “sole source” basis with another party to such contract with respect to the subject matter of such contract, (iii) any contract for, with respect to, or that contemplates, a possible merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other business combination, or asset sale or sale of equity securities not in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, with respect to FCB or any of its Subsidiaries, (iv) any lease of real or personal property providing for annual lease payments by or to FCB or its Subsidiaries in excess of $100,000 per annum other than financing leases entered into in the ordinary course of business in which FCB or any of its Subsidiaries is the lessor, or (v) any contract that involves expenditures or receipts of FCB

or any of its Subsidiaries in excess of $100,000 per year not entered into in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice.

3.10        Absence of Undisclosed Liabilities.  Except as provided in the FCB Financial Statements or in the FCB Disclosure Schedule, and except for unfunded loan commitments and obligations on letters of credit to customers of FCB’s Subsidiaries made in the ordinary course of business, except for trade payables incurred in the ordinary course of such Subsidiaries’ business, and except for obligations for services rendered pursuant to this Agreement, or any other transactions which would not result in a material liability, none of FCB or any of its Subsidiaries has, nor will have at the Effective Time, any obligation, agreement, contract, commitment, liability, lease or license which exceeds $100,000 individually, or any obligation, agreement, contract, commitment, liability, lease or license made outside of the ordinary course of business, nor does there exist any circumstances resulting from transactions effected or events occurring on or prior to the date of this Agreement or from any action omitted to be taken during such period which could reasonably be expected to result in any such obligation, agreement, contract, commitment, liability, lease or license. None of FCB or any of its Subsidiaries is delinquent in the payment of any amount due pursuant to any trade payable in any material respect, and each has properly accrued for such payables in accordance with GAAP, except where the failure to so accrue would not constitute a Material Adverse Effect.  The FCB Disclosure Schedule includes a complete and accurate list of all payments (or estimated payments, as applicable) to be made by FCB as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, but not limited to, all payments to employees (including payments for accrued and unpaid vacation and paid time off), all payments accelerated as a result of the consummation of the Merger and all payments to venders or third parties.

 

3.11        Title to Properties.  Except as described in this Section 3.11 or the FCB Disclosure Schedule:

 

14



 

(a)                                 FCB or one of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, has good and marketable title in fee simple absolute to all real property (including, without limitation, all real property used as bank premises and all other real estate owned) which is reflected in the FCB Financial Statements as of December 31, 2015; good and marketable title to all personal property reflected in the FCB Financial Statements as of December 31, 2015, other than personal property disposed of in the ordinary course of business since December 31, 2015; good and marketable title to or right to use by valid and enforceable lease or contract all other properties and assets (whether real or personal, tangible or intangible) which FCB or any of its Subsidiaries purports to own or which FCB or any of its Subsidiaries uses in its respective business and which are in either case material to its respective business; good and marketable title to, or right to use by terms of a valid and enforceable lease or contract, all other property used in its respective business to the extent material thereto; and good and marketable title to all material property and assets acquired and not disposed of or leased since December 31, 2015. All of such properties and assets are owned by FCB or its Subsidiaries free and clear of all land or conditional sales contracts, mortgages, liens, pledges, restrictions, options, security, interests, charges, claims, rights of third parties or encumbrances of any nature except: (i) as set forth in the FCB Disclosure Schedule; (ii) as specifically noted in reasonable detail in the FCB Financial Statements; (iii) statutory liens for taxes not yet delinquent or being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings; (iv) pledges or liens required to be granted in connection with the acceptance of government deposits or granted in connection with repurchase or reverse repurchase agreements; (v) the applicable lessor’s reversionary interest in any leased property pursuant to the applicable lease; and (vi) easements, encumbrances and liens of record, imperfections of title and other limitations which are not material in amounts to FCB on a consolidated basis and which do not materially detract from the value or materially interfere with the present or contemplated use of any of the properties subject thereto or otherwise materially impair the use thereof for the purposes for which they are held or used. All real property owned or, to the knowledge of FCB, leased by FCB or its Subsidiaries is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable zoning and land use laws. To FCB’s knowledge, all real property, machinery, equipment, furniture and fixtures owned or leased by FCB or its Subsidiaries that is material to their respective businesses is structurally sound, in good operating condition (ordinary wear and tear excepted) and has been and is being maintained and repaired in the ordinary course of business.

 

(b)           All all real property presently owned, leased or used by FCB or any of its Subsidiaries, FCB, its Subsidiaries and each of the prior owners, have conducted their respective business in compliance with all federal, state, county and municipal laws, statutes, regulations, rules, ordinances, orders, directives, restrictions and requirements relating to, without limitation, responsible property transfer, underground storage tanks, petroleum

products, air pollutants, water pollutants or storm water or process waste water or otherwise relating to the environment, air, water, soil or toxic or hazardous substances or to the manufacturing, recycling, handling, processing, distribution, use, generation, treatment, storage, disposal or transport of any hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products (including polychlorinated biphenyls, whether contained or uncontained, and asbestos-containing materials, whether friable or not), including without limitation, the Federal Solid Waste Disposal Act, the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments, the Federal Clean Air Act, the Federal Clean Water Act, the Occupational Health and Safety Act, the Federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, the Toxic Substances Control Act, the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 and the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986, all as amended, and regulations of the Environmental Protection Agency, the Nuclear Regulatory Agency, the Army Corps of Engineers, the Department of Interior, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service and any state department of natural resources or state environmental protection agency now or at any time thereafter in effect (collectively, “Environmental Laws”), except where such noncompliance would not have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no pending or, to the knowledge of FCB, threatened, claims, actions or proceedings by any local municipality, sewage district or other governmental entity against FCB or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to the Environmental Laws, and to FCB’s knowledge there is no reasonable basis or grounds for any such claim, action or proceeding, except where such claim, action or proceeding would not have a Material Adverse Effect. To FCB’s knowledge, no environmental permits or approvals issued by government environmental agencies are required for the conduct of the business of FCB or any of its Subsidiaries as currently conducted or the consummation of the Merger contemplated hereby. Neither FCB nor any of its Subsidiaries is the past or present owner, or the operator or lessee, of any real property on which any hazardous substances (as defined in CERCLA 42 USC 9601) (“Hazardous Substances”) have been used, stored, deposited, treated, recycled or disposed of, which Hazardous Substances if known to be present on, at or under such property would require clean-up, removal, treatment, abatement, response costs, or any other remedial action under any Environmental Law, except where such actions would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither FCB nor any of its Subsidiaries is liable for any Hazardous Substances clean-up or remediation under any of the Environmental Laws arising from the acts or omissions of FCB or its Subsidiaries with respect to any real property other than those listed in the preceding sentences of this subsection, except where such actions would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

3.12        Loans and Investments.

 

(a)           FCB has provided MainSource with a list of each loan by First Capital that has been classified by regulatory examiners or management as “Other Loans Specially Mentioned,” “Substandard,” “Doubtful” or “Loss” or that has been identified by accountants or auditors (internal or external) as having a significant risk of uncollectability as of September 30, 2016, and a list of Delinquent Loans as of October 31, 2016, and will provide updates to such lists to MainSource as of the last day of each quarter prior to Closing and as of the day prior to Closing. The most recent loan watch list of First Capital and a list of all loans which have been determined to be 30 days or more past due with respect to principal or interest payments or has been placed on nonaccrual status has also been provided by FCB to MainSource and will be provided with updates as of the day prior to Closing.

 

(b)           All loans reflected in the FCB Financial Statements as of December 31, 2015, and which have been made, extended, renewed, restructured, approved, amended or acquired since December 31, 2015: (i) have been made for good, valuable and adequate consideration in the ordinary course of business; (ii) constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the obligor and any guarantor named therein, except to the extent limited by general principles of equity and public policy or by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, liquidation, moratorium, readjustment of debt or other laws of general application relative to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights; (iii) are evidenced by notes, instruments or other evidences of indebtedness which are true, genuine and what they purport to be; and (iv) to the extent secured by collateral, are secured by perfected security interests or recorded mortgages naming First Capital as the secured party or mortgagee (unless by written agreement to the contrary); provided, however, that the enforcement of each of (ii) through (iv) above may be limited by applicable laws related to safety and soundness of insured depository institutions as set forth in 12 U.S.C. § 1818(b), the appointment of a conservator or receiver, bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights or by general equity principles. The phrase “enforceable in accordance with its terms” as it relates to a loan does not mean that the borrower has the financial ability to repay a loan or that any collateral is sufficient to result in payment of the loan secured thereby.

 

(c)           The reserves, the allowance for loan and lease losses and the carrying value for real estate owned which are shown on the FCB Financial Statements are, in the judgment of management of FCB, adequate in all material respects under the requirements of GAAP to provide for known and inherent losses on items for which reserves were made, on loans and leases outstanding and real estate owned as of the respective dates.

 

17



 

(d)           Except as set forth in the FCB Disclosure Schedule, none of the investments reflected in the FCB Financial Statements as of and for the period ended December 31, 2015, and none of the investments made by any Subsidiary of FCB since December 31, 2015, are subject to any restriction, whether contractual or statutory, which materially impairs the ability of such Subsidiary to dispose freely of such investment at any time. Except as set forth on the FCB Disclosure Schedule, neither FCB nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any repurchase agreements with respect to securities.

 

(e)           Except as set forth in the FCB Disclosure Schedule, and except for customer deposits, ordinary trade payables, and Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, neither FCB nor any of its Subsidiaries has, and none will have at the Effective Time, any indebtedness for borrowed money.

5.06                        Acquisition Proposals.

 

(a)                                 FCB will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, and its and their respective officers, directors and representatives (including Investment Banker) to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing solicitations, discussions or negotiations with any Person that has made or indicated an intention to make an Acquisition Proposal (as defined below). During the period from the date of this Agreement through the Effective Time, FCB shall not terminate, amend, modify or waive any material provision of any confidentiality or similar agreement to which FCB or any of its Subsidiaries is a party (other than any involving MainSource).

 

(b)                                 Except as permitted in this Section 5.06, FCB shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and any of their respective directors, officers and representatives (including Investment Banker) not to, (i) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage or facilitate, or take any other action designed to, or that could reasonably be expected to facilitate (including by way of furnishing non-public information) any inquiries with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, or (ii) initiate, participate in or knowingly encourage any discussions or negotiations or otherwise knowingly cooperate in any way with any Person regarding an Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that, at any time prior to obtaining the approval of the Merger by FCB’s shareholders, if FCB receives a bona fide Acquisition Proposal that the FCB Board of Directors determines in good faith constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal (as defined below) that was not solicited after the date hereof and did not otherwise result from a breach of FCB’s obligations under this Section 5.06, FCB may furnish, or cause to be furnished, non-public information with respect to FCB and its Subsidiaries to the Person who made such proposal (provided that all such information has been provided to MainSource prior to or at the same time it is provided to such Person) and may participate in discussions and negotiations regarding such proposal if (A) the FCB Board of Directors determines in good faith, and following consultation with financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that failure to do so would be reasonably likely to result in a breach of its fiduciary duties to FCB’s shareholders under applicable law and (B) prior to taking such action, FCB has used its best reasonable efforts to enter into a confidentiality agreement with respect to such proposal on customary terms. Without limiting the foregoing, it is agreed that any violation of the restrictions contained in the first sentence of this Section 5.06(b) by any representative (including Investment Banker) of FCB or its Subsidiaries shall be a breach of this Section 5.06 by FCB.

 

(c)                                  Neither the FCB Board of Directors nor any committee thereof shall (or shall agree or resolve to) (i) fail to make, withdraw or modify in a manner adverse to MainSource or propose to withdraw or modify in a manner adverse to MainSource (or take any action inconsistent with) the recommendation by the FCB Board of Directors or any such committee of

 

46



 

this Agreement or the Merger, or approve or recommend, or propose to recommend, the approval or recommendation of any Acquisition Proposal (any of the foregoing being referred to herein as an “Adverse Recommendation Change”), or (ii) cause or permit FCB or First Capital to enter into any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other similar agreement (each, an “Acquisition Agreement”) constituting or related to, or which is intended to or would be reasonably likely to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement referred to in Section 5.06(b)).

 

(d)                                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to the special meeting of FCB’s shareholders to approve the Merger, the FCB Board of Directors may, in response to a Superior Proposal, effect an Adverse Recommendation Change; provided, that the FCB Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors, that the failure to do so would be reasonably likely to result in a breach of its fiduciary duties to the shareholders of FCB under applicable Law, and provided, further, that the FCB Board of Directors may not effect such an Adverse Recommendation Change unless (A) the FCB Board shall have first provided prior written notice to MainSource (an “Adverse Recommendation Change Notice”) that it is prepared to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change in response to a Superior Proposal, which notice shall, in the case of a Superior Proposal, attach the most current version of any proposed written agreement or letter of intent relating to the transaction that constitutes such Superior Proposal (it being understood that any amendment to the financial terms or any other material term of such Superior Proposal shall require a new notice and a new five business day period) and (ii) MainSource does not make, within five business days after receipt of such notice, a proposal that would, in the reasonable good faith judgment of the FCB Board of Directors (after consultation with financial advisors and outside legal counsel), cause the offer previously constituting a Superior Proposal to no longer constitute a Superior Proposal or that the Adverse Recommendation Change is no longer required to comply with the FCB Board’s fiduciary duties to the shareholders of FCB under applicable law. FCB agrees that, during the five business day period prior to its effecting an Adverse Recommendation Change, FCB and its officers, directors and representatives shall negotiate in good faith with MainSource and its officers, directors, and representatives regarding any revisions to the terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement proposed by MainSource.

 

(e)                                  In addition to the obligations of FCB set forth in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 5.06, FCB shall as promptly as possible, and in any event within two business days after FCB first obtains knowledge of the receipt

 

47



 

thereof, advise MainSource orally and in writing of (i) any Acquisition Proposal or any request for information that FCB reasonably believes could lead to or contemplates an Acquisition Proposal or (ii) any inquiry FCB reasonably believes could lead to any Acquisition Proposal, the terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry (including any subsequent amendment or other modification to such terms and conditions) and the identity of the Person making any such Acquisition Proposal or request or inquiry. In connection with any such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry, if there occurs or is presented to FCB any material change, modification or development to a previously made offer or letter of intent or any other material development occurs, FCB (or its outside counsel) shall (A) advise and confer with MainSource (or its outside counsel) regarding the progress of negotiations concerning any Acquisition Proposal, the material resolved and unresolved issues related thereto and the material terms (including material amendments or proposed amendments as to price and other material terms) of any such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry, and (B) promptly upon receipt or delivery thereof provide MainSource with true, correct and complete copies of any document or communication related thereto.

 

(f)                                   Nothing contained in this Section 5.06 shall prohibit FCB from at any time taking and disclosing to its shareholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the 1934 Act or from making any other disclosure to its shareholders or in any other regulatory filing if, in the good faith judgment of the FCB Board of Directors, after consultation with its outside counsel, failure to so disclose would be reasonably likely to result in a breach of their or FCB’s obligations under applicable law.

 

(g)                                  For purposes of this Agreement, “Acquisition Proposal” shall mean (i) any inquiry, proposal or offer from any Person or group of Persons (other than as contemplated by this Agreement) relating to, or that could reasonably be expected to lead to, any direct or indirect acquisition or purchase, in one transaction or a series of transactions, of (A) assets or businesses that constitute 20% or more of the revenues, net income or assets of FCB and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (B) 20% or more of any class of equity securities of FCB or any of its Subsidiaries; (ii) any tender offer or exchange offer that, if consummated, would result in any Person beneficially owning 20% or more of any class of equity securities of FCB or any of its Subsidiaries; or (iii) any merger, consolidation, business combination, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution, joint venture, binding share exchange or similar transaction involving FCB, First Capital or any of its other Subsidiaries pursuant to which any Person or the shareholders of any Person would own 20% or more of any class of equity securities of FCB, First Capital, or any of FCB’s other Subsidiaries or of any resulting parent company of FCB or First Capital.

(ii)                                       FCB breaches or fails to perform any of its representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.01, and such condition is incapable of being satisfied by the Outside Date or such breach has not been cured by FCB within 20 business days after FCB’s receipt of written notice of such breach from MainSource; or

(d)                                 by written notice from FCB to MainSource if:

 

(i)                                          any event shall have occurred which is not capable of being cured prior to the Outside Date and would result in any condition set forth in Section 7.02 not being satisfied prior to the Outside Date;

 

(ii)                                       MainSource breaches or fails to perform any of its representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.02 and such condition is incapable of being satisfied by the Outside Date or such breach has not been cured by MainSource within 20 business days after MainSource’s receipt of written notice of such breach from FCB;

 

(iii)                                    there has been a Material Adverse Effect on MainSource on a consolidated basis as of the Effective Time, as compared to that in existence as of the date of this Agreement; or

 

(iv)                                   FCB intends to enter into an agreement relating to a Superior Proposal in accordance with Section 5.06; provided, however, that FCB has (i) not materially breached the provisions of Section 5.06, and (ii) complied with its payment obligation under Section 8.02(b);

 

(e)                                  by written notice of MainSource to FCB:

(f)                                   by written notice by MainSource to FCB if a quorum could not be convened at the meeting of shareholders of FCB contemplated in Section 5.01 or at a reconvened meeting held at any time prior to or on the Outside Date; or

 

(g)                                  by written notice of FCB to MainSource if both of the following conditions are satisfied at any time during the five day period commencing on the Determination Date, such termination to be effective on the tenth day following the Determination Date:

 

(i)                                          the MainSource Market Value on the Determination Date is less than $24.37; and

 

(ii)                                       the number obtained by dividing the MainSource Market Value by the Initial MainSource Market Value shall be less than the Index Ratio minus 0.15; Subject, however, to the following:  If FCB elects to exercise its termination right pursuant to this Section 8.01(g), it shall give prompt written notice thereof to MainSource. During the five business day period commencing with its receipt of such notice, MainSource shall have the option to increase the Exchange Ratio to equal the lesser of (x) a quotient, the numerator of which is equal to the product of the Initial MainSource Market Value, the Exchange Ratio (as then in effect), and the Index Ratio minus 0.15 and the denominator of which is equal to the MainSource Market Value on the Determination Date; or (y) the quotient determined by dividing the Initial MainSource Market Value by the MainSource Market Value on the Determination Date, and multiplying the quotient by the product of the Exchange Ratio (as then in effect) and 0.80. If within such five business day period, MainSource delivers written notice to FCB that it intends to proceed with the Merger by paying such additional consideration as contemplated by the preceding sentence, and notifies FCB of the revised Exchange Ratio, then no

 

64



 

                                                     termination shall have occurred pursuant to this Section 8.01(g), and this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms (except that the Exchange Ratio shall have been so modified).  If MainSource or any company belonging to the Index declares or effects a stock dividend, reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange of shares or similar transaction between the date of this Agreement and the Determination Date, the prices for the common stock of such company shall be appropriately adjusted for the purposes of applying this Section 8.01(g).

 

For purposes of this Section 8.01(g), the following terms shall have the meanings indicated below:

 

“Determination Date” shall mean the first date on which all Regulatory Approvals (and waivers, if applicable) necessary for consummation of the Merger have been received (disregarding any waiting period).”

 

“Final Index Price” means the average of the daily closing value of the Index for the twenty consecutive trading days immediately preceding the Determination Date.”

“Initial MainSource Market Value” means $30.46, adjusted as indicated in the last sentence of this Section 8.01(g).

“MainSource Market Value” means, as of any specified date, the average of the daily closing sales prices of a share of MainSource Common Stock as reported on the NASDAQ Global Market for the twenty (20) consecutive trading days immediately preceding such specified date.

 

8.02                        Effect of Termination.

 

(a)                                 Subject to the remainder of this Section 8.02, in the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01, this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void and have no effect, without any liability on the part of MainSource or FCB and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, advisors, agents, or shareholders and all rights and obligations of any party under this Agreement shall cease, except for the agreements contained in this Section 8.02 and Section 11.11, which shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 8.02(a), except for the fees payable pursuant to subsections (b), (c) or (d), shall relieve any party hereto

 

65



 

                                                from liabilities or damages arising out of any fraud or intentional breach by such party of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement.

 

(b)                                 FCB shall pay to MainSource an amount in cash equal to $2,000,000 (the “Primary Termination Fee”) if:

 

(i)                                     this Agreement is terminated by MainSource pursuant to Section 8.01(e); or

 

(ii)                                  this Agreement is terminated by either party pursuant to Section 8.01(b)(i) and (A) prior to the date of such termination, an Acquisition Proposal was received by FCB and made known to the shareholders of FCB or publicly available, and (B) prior to the date that is twelve months after such termination, FCB or any of its Subsidiaries enters into any Acquisition Agreement or any Acquisition Proposal is consummated; provided, however, that in such case FCB shall only be liable to pay MainSource the amount of the Termination Fee less the amount of any MainSource Expenses previously paid to MainSource pursuant to Section 8.02(d) by FCB; or

 

(iii)                               this Agreement is terminated by either party pursuant to Section 8.01(b)(iii) and (A) prior to the date of such termination, an Acquisition Proposal was made, and (B) prior to the date that is twelve months after such termination, FCB or any of its Subsidiaries enters into any Acquisition Agreement or any Acquisition Proposal is consummated.

 

(c)                                  [Reserved]

 

(d)                                 FCB shall pay to MainSource an amount in cash equal to $500,000 (the “Secondary Termination Fee”) if this Agreement is terminated by MainSource pursuant to Section 8.01(c)(ii) of this Agreement, unless such termination is based on a breach by FCB of its representation in Section 3.11(b).

 

(e)                                  MainSource shall pay to FCB the Secondary Termination Fee if this Agreement is terminated by FCB pursuant to Section 8.01(d)(ii) of this Agreement.

 

(f)                                   For the avoidance of doubt, if multiple termination events occur under Section 8.02(b) that trigger payment of the Primary Termination Fee, FCB shall only be liable to pay the Primary Termination Fee one time.  If multiple events occur under this Section 8.02 such that FCB is required to pay the Secondary Termination Fee under Section 8.02(d) and is required to pay the Primary Termination Fee under Section 8.02(b), MainSource shall not be entitled to recover under both Section 8.02(b) and 8.02(d). Any

 

66



 

                                                Primary Termination Fee or Secondary Termination Fee due under Section 8.02(b) or 8.02(d) (as applicable) shall be paid by FCB by wire transfer of same day funds:

 

(i)                                     in the case of Section 8.02(b)(i) or 8.02(d), concurrently with such termination;

 

(ii)                                  in the case of Section 8.02(b)(ii) or Section 8.02(b)(iii), on the earlier of the date FCB enters into such Acquisition Agreement or consummates such Acquisition Proposal.

 

Any Secondary Termination Fee due under Section 8.02(e) shall be paid by MainSource by wire transfer of same day funds concurrently with such termination.

 

(g)                                  In the event that FCB owes the Primary Termination Fee or Secondary Termination Fee to MainSource pursuant to Section 8.02(b) or 8.02(d) (as applicable) or in the event that MainSource owes Secondary Termination Fee to FCB pursuant to Section 8.02(e), then the payment of such amount shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for those termination events and shall constitute liquidated damages (it being understood that, where events occur that would require FCB to pay both the Primary Termination Fee and the Secondary Termination Fee, the Primary Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy). FCB and MainSource acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 8.02 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, neither MainSource nor FCB would not have entered into this Agreement. Accordingly, if FCB or MainSource (as applicable) fails promptly to pay the amounts due pursuant to this Section 8.02, and, in order to obtain such payment, FCB or MainSource (as applicable) commences a suit that results in a judgment against FCB or MainSource (as applicable) for the amounts set forth in this Section 8.02, FCB or MainSource (as applicable) shall pay to MainSource or FCB (as applicable) its reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such suit and any appeal relating thereto, together with interest on the amounts set forth in this Section 8.02 at the national prime rate in effect on the date such payment was required to be made.

The parties hereto agree that each party and its counsel reviewed and revised this Agreement and that the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party will not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or any amendments or exhibits hereto.

 

11.10                 Survival of Representations, Warranties or Covenants.  Except as set forth in the following sentence, none of the representations, warranties or covenants of the parties will survive the Effective Time or the earlier termination of this Agreement, and thereafter MainSource, FCB and all the respective directors, officers and employees of MainSource and FCB will have no further liability with respect thereto. The covenants contained in Section 8.02 shall survive termination of this Agreement. The covenants contained in Sections 1.01(b), 5.18(h), and 11.08 shall survive the Effective Time.

 

11.11                 Expenses.  Except as provided elsewhere in this Agreement, each party to this Agreement shall pay its own expenses incidental to the Merger contemplated hereby, except that MainSource shall pay and bear the cost of (a) each regulatory filing, notification, registration or similar fee required to be paid by any part in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the applicable securities laws, banking laws, and other applicable laws, and (b) any fees and expenses (excluding each party’s internal costs and fees and expenses of attorneys, accountants and financial and other advisors) incurred in respect of printing, filing and mailing of the Registration Statement and the proxy statement/prospectus associated with the Registration Statement, or any reaffirmation by the FCB Board pursuant to Section 8.01(e)(v).

 

11.12                 Certain References.  Whenever in this Agreement a singular word is used, it also will include the plural wherever required by the context and vice-versa, and the masculine or neuter gender shall include the masculine, feminine and neuter genders. Except expressly stated otherwise, all references in this Agreement to periods of days shall be construed to refer to calendar, not business, days. The term “business day” will mean any day except Saturday and Sunday when MainSource Bank, in Greensburg, Indiana, is open for the transaction of business.

 

11.13                 Disclosure Schedules.  The mere inclusion of an item in a party’s Disclosure Schedule as an exception to a representation or warranty shall not be deemed an admission by such party that such item represents a material exception or fact, event or circumstance or that such item is reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Further, while each party will use commercially reasonable efforts to specifically reference each Section of this Agreement under
