Talking Points for Lafayette Savings Bank associates (for internal use only)

Please tell me more about this announcement.

On Wednesday, June 4, Old National Bancorp, the holding company for Old National Bank, and LSB Financial Corp., the holding company for Lafayette Savings Bank, publicly announced its intention to partner with Lafayette Savings Bank. The transaction is expected to close in the mid- to late-fourth quarter of 2014, subject to required regulatory and shareholder approvals and customary closing conditions.

Tell me about Old National Bank.

Old National is a secure, FDIC-insured community bank that is fully committed to Lafayette Savings Bank clients and to this community.

Headquartered in Evansville, Ind., Old National has a 180-year legacy of serving Midwestern families, businesses and communities. Old National entered the state of Michigan in 2013 through the partnership of Bank of America branches in Southwestern Michigan and has a partnership pending with United Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly-owned bank subsidiary, United Bank & Trust, based in Ann Arbor. Old National also has banking centers throughout Indiana, along with branches in Southern Illinois, Western Kentucky and Louisville. Old National has a total of 166 branches (as of March 31, 2014).

In addition to providing comprehensive retail, commercial and business banking services, Old National offers insurance, wealth management and investment services.

Why did LSB Financial Corp. decide to partner with Old National Bancorp?

Our leadership team recognized an opportunity to enhance the suite of products and services that we can provide to our clients while also allowing Old National to benefit from LSB’s areas of expertise. The partnership creates the potential for larger relationships for us in banking, wealth management and mortgage, and it’s a great cultural fit because both banks are focused on solutions-based client service and community investment.

When will my accounts change?

Absolutely nothing is changing right now. We are still Lafayette Savings Bank, and you should continue to bank as you always have (same checks, same locations, same ATMs). You can also expect to see the same faces you’ve become accustomed to seeing.

Old National is committed to clearly communicating any changes that may be made to your accounts. As we approach the closing of the proposed transaction and subsequent branch conversion, some changes may be made. We promise that we will work very hard to ensure the process is as smooth and seamless as possible for you.

Will this banking center be closing?

At this time, we do not anticipate any banking center closings.

Is my money safe? If I have $250,000 here and $250,000 at Old National are my deposits covered at both places?

If your combined balances at both banks are less than or equal to $250,000, then your deposits are fully insured. If your combined balances are greater than $250,000, then your FDIC coverage may become affected upon completion of the proposed transaction. The coverage is dependent on how your accounts are titled. Let’s review your deposits at each bank (access www.FDIC.gov for the deposit evaluator to determine FDIC coverage).

Can I go to an Old National banking center to make a deposit today?

No, for the near future you will continue to bank as you do today. We’ll continue to take care of your banking needs here. Our online banking system and all of our telephone numbers are also still the same. At a later date we will let you know how you can take advantage of the ability to bank at any Old National banking center, as well as at oldnational.com.

Will this change your commitment to the community?

Absolutely not. Old National shares our commitment to community investment and community service, which is one of the reasons we sought this partnership. In fact Old National is a former recipient of the Points of Light Corporate Engagement Award for Excellence, arguably the highest recognition of corporate volunteer service and community engagement. And Old National associates are encouraged and empowered to volunteer their time in the community.
