There are 125,967 common shares owned by the FFD Financial Corporation Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the "Plan").  First Bankers Trust Services, Inc. is the Trustee of the Plan.  Under the terms of the Plan and the Trust Agreement, the Trustee votes all of the shares allocated to the accounts of participants as directed by the participants to whose accounts such shares have been allocated.  With respect to unallocated shares or allocated shares with respect to which no instructions have been received, the Plan provides that the Trustee shall vote such shares in

the Trustee's discretion.  As of December 31, 2009, all shares held by the Plan had been allocated to the accounts of participants.

Although the Trustee has general authority to sell assets, because the Plan provides that the Trustee is to invest primarily in shares of the issuer, the authority to dispose of such shares is limited by the Plan.
