FBC BANCORP, INC.
AMENDMENT TO INCENTIVE AWARDS
Dear Stock Option Award Holder:
This letter serves as an amendment to your stock option award(s) that were granted under one or more of the equity incentive plans sponsored by FBC Bancorp, Inc.
Why is an Amendment Needed? Effective on October 31, 2016, FBC Bancorp, Inc. was acquired by Sunshine Bancorp, Inc. in a merger. In connection with that transaction, Sunshine Bancorp, Inc. assumed all of the outstanding stock option awards under the FBC Bancorp, Inc.2014 Directors Stock Option Plan and the FBC Bancorp, Inc. 2014 Officers and Employees Stock Option Plan (the Plans). Accordingly, those stock option awards that formerly related to FBC Bancorp, Inc.s common stock were converted to stock option awards relating to shares of Sunshine Bancorp, Inc.s common stock, and the stock option awards are now governed by the Sunshine Bancorp, Inc. 2015 Equity Incentive Plan.
What Amendments are Being Made? Your stock option award(s) are amended, effective as of the closing date of the merger, so that all references to FBC Bancorp, Inc. are now references to Sunshine Bancorp, Inc. and to provide that the shares subject to the stock option awards are now shares of common stock of Sunshine Bancorp, Inc.
The numbers of shares subject to your stock option awards are adjusted, effective as of the closing date of the merger, as follows: [ ]
In addition, the exercise price per share of your stock options is adjusted, effective as of the closing date of the merger, as follows: [ ]
Except for the changes described in this amendment, the terms and conditions of your stock option award(s), including, without limitation, the acceleration of the vesting as a result of the merger, remain in full force and effect and are not changed.
To acknowledge these changes to your awards, please sign and date this letter where indicated below and return a signed original to me by [ ], 2016.
Sincerely, | ||
Andrew S. Samuel | ||
President and Chief Executive Officer of Sunshine Bancorp, Inc. |
