Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement, Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities, Mat


Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 9, 2009, LCNB Corp. (the "Company") completed the sale to the U.S. Department of the Treasury ("Treasury") of $13.4 million of preferred shares of the Company as part of Treasury's Troubled Assets Relief Program Capital Purchase Program (the "CPP") established by under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 ("EESA"). To consummate the transaction, the Company entered into a Letter Agreement (including the Securities Purchase Agreement-Standard Terms incorporated by reference therein, the "Purchase Agreement") with Treasury dated January 9, 2009. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued and sold to Treasury for an aggregate purchase price of $13.4 million in cash: (i) 13,400 shares of the Company's Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, each without par value and having a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), and (ii) a warrant to purchase up to 217,063 shares of the Company's common stock, no par value per share ("Common Stock"), at an initial exercise price of $9.26 per share (the "Warrant"). The Warrant has a term of ten years.
All proceeds of the sale from the Company to Treasury of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Warrant under the Purchase Agreement will qualify as Tier 1 capital for regulatory purposes.

The Series A Preferred Stock will pay cumulative dividends at a rate of 5% per annum for the first five years, and at a rate of 9% per annum thereafter. The Series A Preferred Stock has no maturity date and ranks senior to the Common Stock with respect to the payment of dividends and distributions and amounts payable upon liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company. The Series A Preferred Stock generally is non-voting.

The Company may redeem the Series A Preferred Stock at its liquidation value plus any accrued and unpaid dividends after January 9, 2012, the third anniversary of the closing date of the Purchase Agreement. Prior to this date, the Company may redeem the Series A Preferred Stock at its liquidation value if
(i) the Company has raised aggregate gross proceeds in one or more Qualified Equity Offerings (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) in excess of $3.35 million, and (ii) the aggregate redemption price does not exceed the aggregate net proceeds from such Qualified Equity Offerings. Any redemption is subject to the consent of the Appropriate Federal Banking Agency (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).

Under the Purchase Agreement, limitations are placed on the payment of dividends on the Common Stock from and after January 9, 2009. Prior to January 9, 2012, unless the Company has redeemed the Series A Preferred Stock or Treasury has transferred the Series A Preferred Stock to a third party which is not an Affiliate (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), the consent of Treasury will be required for the Company to declare or pay any dividend or make any distribution on the Common Stock, except for a regular quarterly cash dividend, dividends payable solely in shares of Common Stock or dividends or distribution rights in connection with a shareholders' rights plan. For the same period, Treasury's consent shall be required for any repurchases of (i) Common Stock or other capital stock or other equity securities of any kind of the Company or
(ii) any trust preferred securities issued by the Company or any affiliates, other than (a) repurchases of Series A Preferred Stock, (y) purchases of junior preferred shares or Common Stock in connection with the administration of any employee benefit plan in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice and (c) purchases under certain other limited circumstances specified in the Purchase Agreement.

The Series A Preferred Stock and the Warrant were issued in a private placement exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, . . .
