RECITALS
WHEREAS, F.N.B.'s Board and shareholders have adopted and approved the
F.N.B. Corporation 2007 Incentive Compensation Plan ("Plan"); and
WHEREAS, F.N.B. is committed to be a high dividend paying corporation;
and
WHEREAS, F.N.B. intends to award certain management employees for
F.N.B.'s long term performance which is designed to deliver total shareholder
return by combining a strong dividend yield with earnings per share growth for
the purpose of attaining a corresponding share price appreciation; and
WHEREAS, F.N.B. believes these awards will align management's interest
with those of the shareholders; and
WHEREAS, the Participant has accepted the grant of the Restricted Stock
Units and agree to the terms and conditions stated below:
SECTION 1. PURPOSE. The purpose of this award is to align Participant's interest
with that of F.N.B. shareholders by attaining total shareholder return through a
combination of an attractive dividend yield and earnings per share growth over
the performance period, which is consistent with F.N.B.'s investment thesis of
achieving total shareholder return of nine to twelve percent.
SECTION 2. RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD. Subject to the provisions of this
Agreement and the provisions of the Plan, F.N.B. hereby grants to Participant
______ restricted stock units evidencing a right to receive ______ shares of
common stock of F.N.B. (the "Target Amount") provided that the applicable
Vesting Requirements described in 3(a)(i)(1), (2) and (3) of this Agreement have
been met. These Restricted Stock Units are notational units of measurement
denominated in shares of F.N.B. common stock (i.e., one restricted stock unit is
equivalent to one share of F.N.B. common stock). The restricted stock units
represent an unfunded, unsecured deferred compensation obligation of F.N.B.
SECTION 3. VESTING.
(a) All, a portion, a multiple or none of Participant's Target Amount will
vest subject to the following terms and conditions:
(i) TIME AND PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS. Subject to the forfeiture
and accelerated vesting provisions set forth in Section 4
hereof, the Target Amount shall become vested in shares of
F.N.B. common stock and shall become deliverable in the amount
described in Section 3(b) hereof (provided such delivery is
otherwise in accordance with federal and state laws) to the
Participant on March 1, 2012 ("Vesting Date"), provided each
of the following three vesting requirements set forth in
Section 3(a)(i)(1), (2) and (3) below, are satisfied, which
shall hereinafter be referred to as the "Vesting
Requirements."
(1) SERVICE REQUIREMENT. Participant remains continuously
employed by F.N.B. from the Grant Date through the
Vesting Date; and
(2) FIRST PERFORMANCE TRIGGER. F.N.B.'s relative return
on average tangible equity ("XXXXX"), as calculated
under Section 3(c)(i) herein, during the four year
period beginning on January 1, 2008, and ending on
December 31, 2011 (the "Performance Period"), is
greater than or equal to the 50th percentile of the
peer financial institutions' (identified in Schedule
1 attached hereto and hereinafter referred to as the
"Peer Financial Institutions") XXXXX during the
Performance Period as approved by the Committee on
January 16, 2008 ("XXXXX Performance Goal"); and
(3) SECOND PERFORMANCE TRIGGER. F.N.B.'s diluted earnings
per share growth during the Performance Period
("F.N.B. EPS Growth") is greater than zero, and at or
above the 20th percentile of the Peer Financial
Institutions' diluted earnings per share growth (Peer
Financial Institutions' EPS Growth") during the
Performance Period, as calculated under Section
3(c)(ii) herein.
(b) DETERMINATION OF VESTED RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS AWARD AMOUNT. Provided the
Vesting Requirements are met, the number of the Participant's restricted stock
units that will become vested on the Vesting Date will be determined as follows:
(i) Maximum. If F.N.B.'s EPS Growth is at or above the 60th
percentile of the Peer Financial Institutions' EPS Growth
during the Performance Period, then the vested amount shall be
1.75 times the Target Amount ("Maximum Amount");
(ii) Target. If F.N.B.'s EPS Growth is at the 35th percentile of
the Peer Financial Institutions' EPS Growth during the
Performance Period, then the vested amount shall be the Target
Amount;
(iii) Threshold. If F.N.B.'s EPS Growth is at the 20th percentile of
the Peer Financial Institutions' EPS Growth during the
Performance Period, then the vested amount shall be 0.51 times
the Target Amount ("Threshold Amount"); and
-2-
(iv) Interpolation Between Levels. For amounts between the
Threshold and Target levels or between the Target and Maximum
levels, straight line interpolation, rounded up to the next
whole share, will be used to determine the number of
restricted stock units that shall vest on the Vesting Date.
For purposes of this Agreement, the amount of the
Participant's award that vests under the calculation set forth
under this Section 3(b) of the Agreement shall be referred to
herein as the "Award Amount."
(c) FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENTS.
(i) F.N.B. XXXXX. For purposes of this Agreement, the calculation
of F.N.B.'s XXXXX for the Performance Period shall be computed
by taking the average of F.N.B.'s XXXXX for each year in the
Performance Period and comparing that to the average XXXXX for
the Peer Financial Institutions for each year in the
Performance Period. XXXXX is calculated for each year in the
Performance Period by taking net income and adding back the
after-tax effect of the amortization of acquisition-related
intangible assets, divided by average shareholders' equity
minus average acquisition-related intangible assets;
(ii) F.N.B. AND PEER FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS' EPS. For purposes of
this Agreement, the calculation of F.N.B.'s earnings per share
growth for the four-year Performance Period shall be computed
by taking the average of F.N.B.'s annual diluted EPS growth
for each year in the four-year Performance Period and
comparing that to the average annual diluted EPS growth for
the Financial Institutions Peer Group for each year in the
four-year Performance Period.
SECTION 4. FORFEITURE; TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT; AND ACCELERATED VESTING OF
RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS. Upon the effective date of the termination of
Participant's employment with F.N.B., the Restricted Stock Units shall
immediately be forfeited and returned to the Company by the administrator of
this award program without consideration or future action being required of the
Company; except that notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event such
termination is a result of the following circumstances:
(a) DEATH. The Target Amount shall automatically vest (to the extent this award
has not been previously forfeited) and become payable in accordance with Section
7 hereof immediately upon Participant's death between the Grant Date and the
Vesting Date.
(b) DISABILITY. Provided the Vesting Requirements, except for the service
requirement set forth at Section 3(a)(i)(1) hereof, have been met, the
Participant shall be entitled to vesting on the Vesting Date in an amount not
less than the pro rata amount of the Award Amount for the number of full months
of the Performance Period (Participant shall be credited with working the full
month of January 2008) the Participant worked before the Participant became a
"Disabled Participant" (as defined in the Plan) as a portion of the total number
of months (including January 2008) in the Performance Period. The number of
restricted stock units the Participant is entitled to have vest as a result of
becoming a "Disabled Participant" and payable in accordance with Section 7
hereof, shall
-3-
be calculated by multiplying the Award Amount by the fraction, the numerator of
which is the number of full months (including credit for the full month of
January 2008) the Participant worked during the Performance Period before the
date Participant became a "Disabled Participant," and the denominator of which
is forty-eight (48), representing the total number of months in the Performance
Period.
(c) TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. Provided the Vesting Requirements, have been met,
except for the service requirement set forth at Section 3(a)(i)(1) hereof, the
Participant shall be entitled to vesting on the Vesting Date in an amount not
less than the pro rata amount of the Award Amount for the number of full months
of the Performance Period (Participant shall be credited with working the full
month of January 2008) the Participant was employed by F.N.B. before the
Participant's employment was terminated without "Cause" (as defined in the Plan)
as a portion of the total number of months (including January 2008) in the
Performance Period. The number of restricted stock units the Participant is
entitled to have vest as a result of the termination of his Employment without
"Cause" and payable in accordance with Section 7 hereof, shall be calculated by
multiplying the Award Amount by the fraction, the numerator of which is the
number of full months (including credit for the full month of January 2008) the
Participant was employed by F.N.B. during the Performance Period before the
actual date of the termination of Participant's employment, and the denominator
of which is forty-eight (48), representing the total number of months in the
Performance Period.
(d) ACCELERATED VESTING - CHANGE IN CONTROL OR SALE. In the event a "Change in
Control" (as defined in the Plan) of F.N.B. Corporation or the Bank occurs,
prior to the Vesting Date and the Participant has remained continuously employed
by F.N.B. since the Grant Date, the Target Amount shall immediately vest and be
payable in accordance with Section 7 hereof.
(i) TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT WHILE CHANGE IN CONTROL PENDING. For
purposes of this Agreement, the termination of the
Participant's employment following execution of a definitive
agreement contemplating a "Change in Control" of F.N.B. or the
Bank, without "Cause" (as defined in the Plan), prior to the
consummation date of the "Change in Control" or such Sale,
shall immediately result in full vesting at the Target Amount.
SECTION 5. RESTRICTIONS. The Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to the
following restrictions:
(a) RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER. The restricted stock units may not be
sold, assigned, transferred, encumbered, hypothecated or pledged by the
Participant, other than to F.N.B. as a result of forfeiture of the units as
provided herein and except by beneficiary designation, will or by laws of
descent and distribution upon the Participant's death.
(b) NO VOTING RIGHTS. The restricted stock units granted pursuant to
this Agreement, whether or not vested, will not confer any voting rights upon
the Participant, unless and until the restricted stock units are paid to
Participant in shares of F.N.B. common stock.
(c) RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS SUBJECT TO THE PLANS. The restricted stock
units awarded under the Agreement are subject to the terms of the Plan. In the

-4-
SECTION 6. DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS. Any dividend paid in cash on the shares of the
F.N.B. common stock between the Grant Date and the date the Award Amount is paid
to Participant under Section 7 hereof shall not be paid currently, but subject
to the vesting requirements described herein, shall be converted into additional
restricted stock units and delivered to Participant in accordance with Section 7
hereof. Any restricted stock units resulting from the conversion of these
dividend amounts ("Dividend Units") will be considered restricted stock units
for purposes of this Agreement and will be subject to all the terms, conditions
and restrictions set forth herein. The Dividend Units shall be made in whole
and/or fractional restricted stock units and shall be based on the "Fair Market
Value" (as defined in the Plan) of the shares of F.N.B. common stock on the date
of payment of any such dividend. All Dividend Units shall be subject to the same
vesting requirements applicable to previously held restricted stock units in
respect of which they were credited and shall be payable in accordance with
Section 7 of this Agreement.
SECTION 7. PAYMENT OF VESTED RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS. Payment of Vested
Restricted Stock Units shall be made within thirty (30) days of the Vesting Date
following satisfaction of the Vesting Requirements or within thirty (30) days of

non-recurring events affecting F.N.B. or the financial statements of F.N.B. in
response to changes in applicable laws or regulations, or to account for items
of gain, loss or expense determined to be extraordinary or unusual in nature or
infrequent in occurrence or related to the disposal of a segment of a business
or related to a change in accounting principles. Additionally, the restricted
stock units awarded under this Agreement shall be subject to the provisions of
Section 2.6 of the Plan relating to adjustments for changes in corporate

or F.N.B. EPS Growth measurement or other performance measurement as it shall

Award Amount award contemplated by this Agreement. Such modification of the
performance measurement specified in this Agreement by the Committee shall
ensure that F.N.B.'s XXXXX Performance Goal or F.N.B. on Peer Institutions' EPS
Growth or measurement thereof, or establishment of new performance measurements
shall in no event be detrimental to the Participant and shall be consistent with
any adjustment to the Company's capital structure during the Performance Period.
Such "significant events" contemplated herein may include, but not be limited
to, capital raises, stock splits, stock buybacks, sale of business units,
business restructuring charges, merger related costs, non-recurring activities,
and other comparable events.
