OTHER EVENTS

On December 9, 2022 at 11:59 p.m., pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of May 31, 2022 between F.N.B. Corporation (“F.N.B.”) and UB Bancorp (“UBB”), F.N.B. completed its acquisition of UBB through the merger of UBB with and into F.N.B., with F.N.B. being the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). UBB is the holding company for Union Bank, a North Carolina banking institution. On December 10, 2022 at 12:01 a.m., Union Bank merged with and into First National Bank of Pennsylvania, the principal subsidiary of F.N.B., with First National Bank of Pennsylvania continuing as the surviving bank.

Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, at the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding share of UBB common stock (excluding certain shares held by F.N.B., UBB and their respective subsidiaries) was converted into the right to receive 1.61 shares of the common stock of F.N.B., with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares. There were no outstanding options to purchase shares of UBB common stock issued pursuant to UBB’s equity incentive compensation plan at the effective time of the Merger. All outstanding restricted stock awards issued by UBB pursuant to UBB’s equity incentive compensation plan vested prior to the effective time of the Merger and were converted into non-restricted shares of F.N.B. common stock. There were no other equity awards issued pursuant to UBB’s equity incentive compensation plan at the effective time of the Merger to be converted into equity awards for F.N.B. common stock.

The foregoing description of the Agreement and Plan of Merger and the Merger does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, which is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 2.1 filed with this report.

On December 12, 2022, F.N.B. issued a press release announcing the closing of the Merger. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
