Exhibit 10.1
SHAREHOLDER VOTING AND SUPPORT AGREEMENT, dated as of September 12, 2007 (this “Agreement”),
among Integra Bank Corporation, an Indiana corporation (the “Company”), and each of the persons
listed on Schedule I attached hereto (each, a “Shareholder,” and collectively, the
“Shareholders”).
R E C I T A L S:
WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company and
Peoples Community Bancorp, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Peoples”), are entering into an Agreement
and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), which provides, among other things, for the merger of
Peoples into Integra (the “Merger”), all on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in
the Merger Agreement; and
WHEREAS, as an inducement and a condition to entering into the Merger Agreement, the Company
has required that the Shareholders agree, and each Shareholder has agreed, to enter into this
Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreements set
forth herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Definitions. Terms used and not defined herein, but defined in the Merger
Agreement, shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement.
2. Voting.
(a) Each Shareholder shall, at any meeting of the shareholders of Peoples, however
called, or in connection with any written consent of the shareholders of Peoples, vote (or
cause to be voted), to the extent the Shareholder has the right to vote or direct such
voting, all shares of Peoples Common Stock then held of record or beneficially owned by such
Shareholder (the “Shares”), including the Shares listed on Schedule I attached
hereto, as follows: (i) in favor of the Merger, the execution and delivery by Peoples of
the Merger Agreement and the approval of the terms thereof and each of the other actions
contemplated by the Merger Agreement and this Agreement and any actions required in
furtherance thereof and hereof and (ii) against any proposal relating to an Acquisition
Proposal and against any action or agreement that would impede, frustrate, prevent or
nullify this Agreement, or result in a breach in any respect of any covenant, representation
or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of Peoples under the Merger Agreement or
which would result in any of the conditions set forth in Article VII of the Merger Agreement
not being fulfilled. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary,
the Shareholder shall be permitted to vote such Shares in favor of a Superior Offer that is
submitted for approval by the shareholders of Peoples if
all of the following shall have
occurred: (i) Board of Directors of Peoples has approved
such Superior Offer and recommended such Superior Offer to the shareholders of Peoples
in accordance with Section 5.1 of the Merger Agreement, (ii) the Merger Agreement has been
terminated in accordance with Section 8.1(h) of the Merger Agreement, and (iii) Peoples has
paid the Termination Fee to the Company in accordance with Section 8.3(b)(i) of the Merger
Agreement.
(b) Each Shareholder hereby covenants and agrees that, except as contemplated by this
Agreement and the Merger Agreement, such Shareholder shall not (i) offer to transfer (which
term shall include, without limitation, any sale, tender, gift, pledge, assignment or other
disposition), transfer or consent to any transfer of, any or all of the Shares beneficially
owned by such Shareholder (to the extent the Shareholder has the right to dispose of or
direct the disposition of such Shares) or any interest therein without the prior written
consent of the Company, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld in the case of a gift
or similar estate planning transaction (it being understood that the Company may decline to
consent to any such transfer if the Person acquiring such Shares does not agree to take such
Shares subject to the terms of this Agreement); provided, however, that the foregoing
provision shall not be deemed to restrict the transfers of any Shares pursuant to any bona
fide margin or other security arrangements in existence prior to the date of this Agreement,
(ii) enter into any option or other Contract with respect to any transfer of any or all of
such Shares or any interest therein except as permitted in clause (i), (iii) grant any
proxy, power-of-attorney or other authorization or consent in or with respect to such Shares
except to vote the Shares in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (iv) deposit such
Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with respect to
such Shares, or (v) subject to Section 6 hereof, take any other action that would make any
representation or warranty of such Shareholder contained herein untrue or incorrect in any
material respect or in any way restrict, limit or interfere in any material respect with the
performance of such Shareholder’s obligations hereunder or the transactions contemplated
hereby or by the Merger Agreement.
(c) Subject to Section 6 hereof, each Shareholder hereby agrees that such Shareholder
(i) shall not, directly or indirectly, encourage, solicit, initiate or participate in any
way in any discussions or negotiations with, or provide any information to, or afford any
access to the properties, books or records of Peoples or any Subsidiaries of Peoples to, or
otherwise take any other action to assist or facilitate, any Person or group (other than the
Company or any Affiliate or associate of the Company) concerning any Acquisition Proposal,
(ii) upon execution of this Agreement, will immediately cease any existing activities,
discussions or negotiations conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal,
and (iii) will immediately communicate to the Company the terms of any Acquisition Proposal
(or any discussion, negotiation or inquiry with respect thereto) and the identity of the
Person making such Acquisition Proposal or inquiry which such Shareholder may receive.
-2-
(d) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the parties hereto
agrees to use all reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do,
or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws to
consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and
the Merger Agreement. Each party shall promptly consult with the other and provide any
necessary information and material with respect to all filings made by such party with any
Governmental Entity in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby and the Merger Agreement.
(e) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each Shareholder hereby waives
any rights of appraisal or rights to dissent from the Merger that such Shareholder may have.
(f) Each Shareholder that is the holder of any Unexercised Options hereby agrees to
accept the treatment of Unexercised Options pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Merger Agreement
and to execute any documents requested by Peoples or Integra to give effect to or evidence
such treatment.
3. Representations and Warranties of Each Shareholder. Each Shareholder hereby
represents and warrants, severally and not jointly, to the Company as follows:
(a) Such Shareholder owns individually and beneficially the Shares set forth opposite
such Shareholder’s name on Schedule I attached hereto. Such Shares constitute all
of the shares owned individually and beneficially by such Shareholder on the date hereof.
Except as set forth on Schedule I attached hereto, such Shareholder has sole voting
power and sole power to issue instructions with respect to the matters set forth in Section
2 hereof, sole power of disposition, sole power to demand and sole power to agree to all of

Agreement.
(b) Such Shareholder has the power and authority to enter into and perform all of such
Shareholder’s obligations under this Agreement. This Agreement has been duly and validly
executed and delivered by such Shareholder and constitutes a legal, valid and binding
agreement of such Shareholder, enforceable against such Shareholder in accordance with its
terms, except in each case as enforcement may be limited by general principles of equity,
whether applied in a court of law or a court of equity, and by bankruptcy, insolvency and
similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally. There is no beneficiary or
holder of a voting trust certificate or other interest of any trust of which such
Shareholder is a trustee, or any party to any other agreement or arrangement, whose consent
is required for the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation by such
Shareholder of the transactions contemplated hereby.
(c) (i) Except as may be required under applicable securities laws, no filing with, and
no permit, authorization, consent or approval of, any Governmental Entity is necessary for
the execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Shareholder, the consummation by such
Shareholder of the transactions contemplated hereby and the
-3-
compliance by such Shareholder
with the provisions hereof and (ii) none of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by
such Shareholder, the consummation by such Shareholder of the transactions contemplated
hereby or compliance by such Shareholder
with any of the provisions hereof, except in cases in which any conflict, breach,
default or violation described below would not interfere with the ability of such
Shareholder to perform such Shareholder’s obligations hereunder, shall (A) conflict with or
result in any breach of any organizational documents applicable to such Shareholder, (B)
result in a violation or breach of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time
or both) a default (or give rise to any third party right of termination, cancellation,
modification or acceleration) under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any note,
loan agreement, bond, mortgage, indenture, license or other Contract of any kind, including,
without limitation, any voting agreement, proxy arrangement, pledge agreement, shareholders
agreement or voting trust, to which such Shareholder is a party or by which such Shareholder
or any of such Shareholder’s properties or assets may be bound or (C) violate any Order or
Law applicable to such Shareholder or any of such Shareholder’s properties or assets.
(d) Except as permitted by this Agreement, the Shares beneficially owned by such
Shareholder and the certificates representing such Shares are now, and at all times during
the term hereof will be, held by such Shareholder, or by a nominee or custodian for the
benefit of such Shareholder, free and clear of all Liens, proxies, voting trusts or
agreements, understandings or arrangements or any other rights whatsoever, except for any
such Liens or proxies arising hereunder.
4. Stop Transfer. Each Shareholder shall request that Peoples not register the
transfer (book-entry or otherwise) of any certificate or uncertificated interest representing any
of the Shares beneficially owned by such Shareholder, unless such transfer is made in compliance
with this Agreement.
5. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate, and none of the Shareholders or the
Company shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, upon the earlier of (a) the
Effective Time or (b) the termination of the Merger Agreement.
6. No Limitation. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, nothing in this
Agreement shall be construed to prohibit a Shareholder, or any officer or Affiliate of a
Shareholder who is or has been designated a member of the Board of Directors of Peoples, from
taking any action solely in his or her capacity as a member of the Board of Directors of Peoples or
from exercising his or her fiduciary duties as a member of the Board of Directors of Peoples to the
extent specifically permitted by the Merger Agreement.
7. Miscellaneous.
(a) This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to
the subject matter hereof and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both
written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.
-4-
(b) This Agreement shall not be assigned by operation of Law or otherwise without the
prior written consent of each Shareholder (in the case of any assignment by the Company) or
the Company (in the case of any assignment by a Shareholder),
provided that the Company may assign its rights and obligations hereunder to any
Company Subsidiary, but no such assignment shall relieve the Company of its obligations
hereunder.
(c) Without limiting any other rights the Company may have hereunder in respect of any
transfer of Shares, each Shareholder agrees that this Agreement and the obligations
hereunder shall attach to the Shares owned of record by such Shareholder and shall be
binding upon any Person to which legal ownership of such Shares shall pass, whether by
operation of Law or otherwise, including, without limitation, such Shareholder’s heirs,
guardians, administrators or successors.
(d) This Agreement may not be amended, changed, supplemented or otherwise modified with
respect to a Shareholder except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such
Shareholder and the Company.

(f) Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement
will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if
any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal
or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable Law in any jurisdiction, such
invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or portion of

(h) The failure of any party hereto to exercise any right, power or remedy provided
under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity, or to
insist upon compliance by any other party hereto with its obligations hereunder, and any
custom or practice of the parties at variance with the terms hereof, shall not constitute a
waiver by such party of its right to exercise any such or other right, power or remedy or to
demand such compliance.
(i) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party
hereto, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any
other Person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this
Agreement.

applicable to the matters arising under or in connection with this Agreement, this Agreement

injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically

-6-

defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request
for leave from any such court and (iii) agrees that it will not bring any action
relating to this Agreement or any transaction contemplated by this Agreement in any court

to the laying of venue of any Proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby in the courts of the State of Indiana located in the City of Evansville
or in any Federal court located in the Southern District of Indiana, and hereby further
irrevocably and unconditionally waive and agree not to plead or claim in any such court that
any such Proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

this Agreement shall be entitled to recover its costs, including attorneys’ fees, incurred
