Exhibit 99.5
STOCK PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
XXXXX XXXXXX, Personal Representative of the ESTATE OF XXXXX XXXXXXX, DECEASED (“Pledgor”) and THE BANK OF KENTUCKY, INC., a Kentucky banking corporation (“Secured Party”), jointly and severally, hereby agree as follows:
Pledge. In order to induce Secured Party to extend the Obligations, as that term is defined below, Pledgor hereby grants to Secured Party a security interest in, and pledges to Secured Party, the securities described in the attached Exhibit A, which is hereby incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein, and all income, interest, dividends, and distributions thereon, replacements and substitutions therefor, and the proceeds thereof (collectively, the “Pledged Securities”). The Pledged Securities are security for the payment to Secured Party of all of the following (the “Obligations”): all loans, advances, debts, liabilities, obligations, covenants and duties owing to Secured Party from any Pledgor of any kind or nature, present or future, whether or not evidenced by any note, guaranty or other instrument, including but not limited to those arising under: (i) the Term Note executed by XXXXX XXXXXX, Personal Representative of the ESTATE OF XXXXX XXXXXXX, DECEASED, payable to Secured Party dated December 31, 2014 in the original principal amount of Two Million Six Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($2,600,000.00), and all of the documents executed in connection therewith, and (ii) under any other agreement, instrument or document, whether or not for the payment of money, whether arising by reason of an extension of credit, opening of a letter of credit, loan, guaranty, indemnification or in any other manner, whether direct or indirect (including those acquired by assignment, participation, purchase, negotiation, discount or otherwise), absolute or contingent, joint or several, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising and whether or not contemplated by Pledgor or Secured Party on the date hereof; and, as to all of the foregoing, including any amendments, modifications, or superceding documents to each of the foregoing; and all charges, expenses, fees, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees, and any other sums chargeable to Pledgor under any of the Obligations. This Agreement is in addition to any previous assignments or pledges, and such previous assignments and pledges remain in full force and effect.
To the extent that this Agreement is made by Pledgor to provide additional collateral for the obligations of Borrower, then Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that notice of acceptance of this Agreement, notice of extensions of credit to Borrower from time to time, notice of default, diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment, notice of demand or protest, and any defense based upon a failure of Secured Party to comply with the notice requirements of the applicable version of Uniform Commercial Code Article XIII and IX, are hereby waived. Secured Party at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to Pledgor, and without impairing or releasing, discharging or modifying the liabilities of Pledgor hereunder, may in its sole discretion (i) change the manner, place or terms of payment or performance of or interest rates on, or change or extend the time of payment or performance of, or other terms relating to any of the Obligations, (ii) renew, increase, substitute, modify, amend or alter, or grant consents or waivers relating to any of the Obligations, any other guarantees or other liabilities, or any collateral for any Obligations or guarantees or other liabilities, (iii) apply any and all payments from any source whatsoever including any proceeds of any collateral, to any Obligations of Borrower in any order, manner and amount, (iv) deal or refrain from dealing with any person or entity, in its sole discretion, with respect to any Obligations in such manner as Secured Party deems appropriate, in its sole discretion, and/or (v) accept, sell, substitute, exchange, compromise, release, surrender, offset, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any of the Obligations, any guarantee or other liability for any of the Obligations, or any collateral for any of the Obligations or for any guarantee or other liability relating to any of the Obligations. Irrespective of the taking of or refraining from taking of any of the foregoing actions, the obligations of Pledgor will remain in full force and effect and will not be affected, impaired, discharged, or released in any manner. Secured Party in its sole discretion may determine the reasonableness of the period which may elapse prior to the making of demand for any payment upon Borrower and it need not pursue any of its remedies against Borrower, any other Pledgor or other person, or any collateral before having recourse against any Pledgor under this Agreement.
1. Representations. Pledgor warrants and represents that:
1.1 there are no restrictions upon the transfer of any of the Pledged Securities, other than those that are referenced on the face of the certificate or, for any uncertificated Pledged Securities, as previously disclosed to Secured Party in writing;
1.2 the Pledged Securities are issued and registered in the name of Pledgor as the legal and beneficial owner thereof, or, if uncertificated, are held in an account owned by Pledgor, and all Pledged Securities are duly authorized, validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable, with no personal liability attaching to the ownership thereof;
1.3 the Pledged Securities are free and clear of any security interests, pledges, liens, encumbrances, charges, agreements, claims or other arrangements or restrictions of any kind, except as referenced above; and Pledgor will not incur, create, assume or permit to exist any pledge, security interest, lien, charge or other encumbrance of any nature whatsoever on any of the Pledged Securities or assign, pledge or otherwise encumber any right to receive income from the Pledged Securities;
1.4 Pledgor has the right to transfer the Pledged Securities free of any encumbrances and without obtaining the consent of any other person or entity and Pledgor will defend Pledgor’s title to the Pledged Securities against the claims of all persons; and any registration with, or consent or approval of, or other action by, any federal, state or other governmental authority or regulatory body which was or is necessary for the validity of the pledge of, and grant of the security interest in, the Pledged Securities has been obtained;
1.5 the pledge of, and grant of the security interest in, the Pledged Securities is effective to vest in Secured Party a valid and perfected first and prior security interest, superior to the rights of any other person, in and to the Pledged Securities; and
1.6 all of the Pledged Securities in certificated form have been delivered to Secured Party, accompanied by assignments in blank duly executed, and all of the Pledged Securities in uncertificated form are subject to a Notification and Control Agreement by and between Secured Party and the Custodian, as such term is defined therein.
2. Default. Upon the occurrence of (herein referred to as an “Event of Default”): (i) any Event of Default as defined in any of the documents including any of the Obligations, (ii) any default under any of such documents that do not contain a defined set of “Events of Default”, (iii) any representation or warranty made by Pledgor to Secured Party in this Agreement is false or erroneous in any material respect, or (iv) the failure of Pledgor to observe or perform any covenant or other agreement with Secured Party under this Agreement Secured Party may exercise with respect to the Pledged Securities any one or more of the rights and remedies provided a secured party under applicable law. At any bona fide public sale Secured Party will be free to purchase all or any part of the Pledged Securities, and Secured Party may purchase all or any part of the Pledged Securities at a private sale to the extent permitted under the applicable version of the Uniform Commercial Code. Any such sale may be on cash or credit. Secured Party will be authorized at any such sale (if it deems it advisable to do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the Pledged Securities for their own account in compliance with Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933 or any other applicable exemption available under such Act. Secured Party will not be obligated to make any sale if it determines not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of the sale may have been given. Secured Party may adjourn any sale and sell at the time and place to which the sale is adjourned. Out of the proceeds of any sale Secured Party may retain an amount equal to the unpaid amount due or to become due on all of the Obligations plus the amount of the expenses of such sale, and will pay any balance of such proceeds to Pledgor. Pledgor will remain liable to Secured Party if there is any deficiency. Whenever notice is required by law to be sent by Secured Party to Pledgor of any sale or other disposition of the Pledged Securities, ten days written notice sent to Pledgor at the address specified below, or at such other address as Pledgor may furnish Secured Party in writing from time to time for this purpose, will be reasonable.
3. Voting Rights and Transfer. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, Pledgor will have the right to exercise all voting rights with respect to the Pledged Securities. At any time after the occurrence of any such Event of Default, Secured Party may transfer any or all of the Pledged Securities into its name or that of its nominee and may exercise all voting rights with respect to the Pledged Securities, but no such transfer will constitute a taking of such Pledged Securities in satisfaction of any or all of the Obligations unless Secured Party expressly so indicates by letter mailed or delivered to Pledgor.
4. Dividends and Interest.
4.1 Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, Pledgor will have the right to receive all interest and all cash dividends declared and paid with respect to the Pledged Securities.
4.2 If any additional shares are issued to Pledgor as a stock dividend on any of the Pledged Securities, as a result of any split of any of the Pledged Securities, by reclassification or otherwise, such additional shares that are in certificated form will be immediately delivered to Secured Party (together with assignments in blank duly executed), and any Pledged Securities in uncertificated form immediately will be noted on the records of the issuer or any depository as being subject to a lien in favor of Secured Party. Such additional
shares will be subject to this Agreement and a part of the Pledged Securities to the same extent as the original Pledged Securities.
5. Reimbursement of Secured Party.
5.1 Pledgor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Secured Party to the full extent permitted by law from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities (including liabilities for penalties) of whatever nature, and to reimburse Secured Party for all costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and disbursements, growing out of or resulting from the Pledged Securities, this Agreement or the administration and enforcement or exercise of any right or remedy granted to Secured Party hereunder, except for any of the foregoing arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Secured Party. In no event will Secured Party be liable to Pledgor for any matter or thing in connection with this Agreement other than to account for moneys actually received by it in accordance with the terms hereof.
5.2 If Pledgor fails to do any act or thing which Pledgor has covenanted to do hereunder or any representation or warranty of Pledgor hereunder will be breached, Secured Party may (but will not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach and there will be added to the indebtedness secured hereby, the cost or expense incurred by Secured Party in so doing, and any and all amounts expended by Secured Party in taking any such action will be repayable to it upon its demand to Pledgor therefor and, subject to any maximum interest rate limitations specified by applicable law, will bear interest at the highest Default Rate (as defined in any of the Obligations).
5.3 All indemnities contained in this Section will survive the termination of this Agreement.
6. Further Assurances. At any time and from time to time, upon demand of Secured Party, Pledgor will give, execute, file and record any notice, financing statement, continuation statement, instrument, document or agreement that Secured Party may consider necessary or desirable to create, preserve, continue, perfect or validate any security interest granted hereunder or to enable Secured Party to exercise or enforce its rights hereunder with respect to such security interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Secured Party is authorized to file financing statements, continuation statements and other documents under the Uniform Commercial Code relating to the Pledged Securities and is granted an irrevocable power of attorney to sign the name of the Pledgor thereon.
7. Representations and Warranties to Survive. All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made by Pledgor herein or in any document delivered pursuant to the terms of this Agreement will survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement without limitation as to time and amount.

9.1 No delay or omission on the part of Secured Party to exercise any right or power arising from any Event of Default will impair any such right or power or be considered a waiver of any such right or power or a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein nor will the action or nonaction of Secured Party in case of such Event of Default impair any right or power arising as a result thereof or affect any subsequent default or any other default of the same or a different nature.

Unless otherwise specified herein, any reference to “Pledgor” will mean each such person or entity executing this Agreement individually and all of such persons or entities collectively.

No notice to or demand on Pledgor in any case will entitle Pledgor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstance.
