INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT
ITEM 5.02.    DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS
     On March 18, 2009, the F.N.B. Corporation Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) approved the award of performance and service-based awards to the Corporation’s Chief Financial Officer and other certain executive officers named in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis included in F.N.B. Corporation’s (“Corporation”) proxy statement for its annual meeting of shareholders held in 2008 (the Named Executive Officers). The Committee granted awards in the following amounts which, in accordance with the requirements of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, if determined to be less than 1/3 of each of the Named Executive Officer’s annual compensation, consisting of each Named Executive Officer’s 2008 W-2 compensation and the value of the awards:
                 
    Number of Restricted     Number of Restricted  
    Stock Units Awarded     Stock Units Awarded  
Named Executive Officer   Performance-Based     Service-Based  
Brian Lilly
  20,044     10,022  
Vincent Calabrese
    5,665       2,833  
David Mogle
    5,665       2,833  
     These awards are made pursuant to the stockholder approved 2007 Incentive Compensation Plan (the Plan), a copy of which is on file with the SEC as Annex “A” to the Corporation’s 2007 proxy statement. The terms of the awards are materially the same as the awards granted in 2008. However, the Committee determined it appropriate to clarify the vesting measure for the performance-awards as Return on Average Tangible Common Equity (“ROATCE”) instead of Return on Average Tangible Equity in order to insure consistency in performance measurements year over year.
     The service-based restricted stock awards are subject to the standard terms contained in the service-based restricted stock award agreement previously filed on July 19, 2007, under a Form 8-K by the Corporation and will vest on January 16, 2012, provided the Named Executive Officer remains continuously employed by the Corporation.
     In addition to the change noted above related to the performance-based awards, both the performance-based and time-based awards are subject to any vesting limitations imposed on the recipient as a result of the Company participating in the United States Treasury Capital Purchase Program.
     The foregoing discussion is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan and of the Performance-Award and Service-Based Award Agreements which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, and incorporated by reference herein.
ITEM 9.01.    FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS
