ARTICLE I. THE MERGER

1.1 The Merger.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Ohio (the “OGCL”) and the Business Corporation Act of the State of Florida (the “FBCA”), at the Effective Time (as defined below), First National Bankshares shall merge with and into Fifth Third Financial. Fifth Third Financial (hereinafter sometimes referred to in such capacity as the “Surviving Corporation”) shall be the Surviving Corporation in the Merger, and shall continue its corporate existence under the laws of the State of Ohio. Upon consummation of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of First National Bankshares shall terminate.

(b) Fifth Third may at any time change the method of effecting the combination with First National Bankshares including without limitation the provisions of this Article I, if and to the extent it deems such change to be desirable, including without limitation to provide for a merger of First National Bankshares with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fifth Third or the merger of a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fifth Third with and into First National Bankshares; provided, however, that no such change shall (i) alter or change the amount or type of Merger Consideration (as defined below) to be provided to holders of First National Bankshares Common Stock (as defined below) as provided for in this Agreement, (ii) cause the combination to fail to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code or adversely affect the tax treatment of holders of First National Bankshares Common Stock as a result of receiving the Merger Consideration, or (iii) materially impede or delay consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. First National Bankshares shall, if requested by Fifth Third, enter into one or more amendments to this Agreement prior to the Effective Time in order to effect any such change.

1.2 Effective Time. The Merger shall become effective as set forth in the certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) that shall be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Ohio (the “Ohio Secretary”) and the articles of merger (the “Articles of Merger”) that shall be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida (the “Florida Secretary”) on the Closing Date. The term “Effective Time” shall be the date and time when the Merger becomes effective, as set forth in the Certificate of Merger and the Articles of Merger.

1.3 Effects of the Merger. At and after the Effective Time, the Merger shall have the effects set forth in the OGCL and the FBCA.

1.4 Conversion of First National Bankshares Common Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of First National Bankshares, Fifth Third, Fifth Third Financial or the holder of any of the securities of either First National Bankshares or Fifth Third:

(a) Subject to Section 2.2(e), each share of the common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of First National Bankshares (the “First National Bankshares Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, except for shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock owned by First National Bankshares or Fifth Third (other than shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock held in trust accounts, managed accounts and the like, or otherwise held in a fiduciary capacity, that are beneficially owned by third parties (any such shares held by First National Bankshares or Fifth Third, as the case may be, being referred to herein as “Trust Account Shares”) or shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock held on account of a debt previously contracted (“DPC Shares”)) shall be converted into the right to receive .5065 of a share (the “Exchange Ratio”) of the common stock, no par value per share, of Fifth Third (the “Fifth Third Common Stock”) (the “Merger Consideration”).

(b) All of the shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Article I shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist as of the Effective Time, and each certificate previously representing any such shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock (each, a “Certificate”) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive (i) a certificate representing the number of whole shares of Fifth Third Common Stock, and (ii) cash in lieu of fractional shares, into which the shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock represented by such Certificate have been converted pursuant to this Section 1.4 and Section 2.2(e). Certificates previously representing shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock shall be exchanged for certificates representing whole shares of Fifth Third Common Stock and cash in lieu of fractional shares issued in consideration therefor upon the surrender of such Certificates in accordance with Section 2.2, without any interest thereon. If, prior to the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Fifth Third Common Stock or First National Bankshares Common Stock shall have been increased, decreased, changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or securities as a result of a reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, or other similar change in capitalization, an appropriate and proportionate adjustment shall be made to the Exchange Ratio.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at the Effective Time, all shares of First National Bankshares Capital Stock (as defined below) that are owned by First National Bankshares or Fifth Third (other than Trust Account Shares and DPC Shares) shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist and no Merger Consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(d) Each share of Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share, of Fifth Third Financial (“Fifth Third Financial Common Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall remain issued and outstanding and unaffected by the Merger.

1.5 Fifth Third Capital Stock. At and after the Effective Time, each share of Fifth Third Capital Stock (as defined below) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing Date shall remain issued and outstanding and shall not be affected by the Merger.

1.6 Options and Other Stock-Based Awards.

(a) Effective as of the Effective Time, each then outstanding option to purchase shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock (each a “First National Bankshares Stock Option”) granted pursuant to the equity-based compensation plans identified in Section 4.11 of the First National Bankshares Disclosure Schedule (the “First National Bankshares Stock Plans”) to any current or former employee or director of, or consultant to, First National Bankshares or any of its Subsidiaries shall be assumed by Fifth Third and shall be converted automatically into an option to purchase a number of shares of Fifth Third Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share) (an “Assumed Stock Option”) at an exercise price determined as provided below (and otherwise subject to the terms of the First National Bankshares Stock Plans and the agreements evidencing grants thereunder):

(i) The number of shares of Fifth Third Common Stock to be subject to the Assumed Stock Option shall be equal to the product of the number of shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock subject to the First National Bankshares Stock Option and Exchange Ratio, provided that any fractional shares of Fifth Third Common Stock resulting from such multiplication shall be rounded to the nearest whole share; and

(ii) The exercise price per share of Fifth Third Common Stock under the Assumed Stock Option shall be equal to the exercise price per share of First National Bankshares Common Stock under the First National Bankshares Stock Option divided by the Exchange Ratio, provided that such exercise price shall be rounded to the nearest whole cent.

In the case of any First National Bankshares Stock Option to which Section 421 of the Code applies by reason of its qualification under Section 422 of the Code, the conversion formula shall be adjusted, if necessary, to comply with Section 424(a) of the Code. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Assumed Stock Options shall be

subject to the same terms and conditions (including expiration date, vesting and exercise provisions) as were applicable to the corresponding First National Bankshares Stock Options immediately prior to the Effective Time (but taking into account any non-discretionary changes thereto provided for in the First National Bankshares Stock Plans or other First National Bankshares Benefit Plan (defined below) or in any award agreement thereunder by reason of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby); provided, however, that references to First National Bankshares shall be deemed to be references to Fifth Third.

(b) At the Effective Time, each right of any kind, contingent or accrued, to receive shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock or benefits measured by the value of a number of shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock, and each award of any kind consisting of shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock, granted under the First National Bankshares Stock Plans or any other First National Bankshares Benefit Plan (including restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance stock units, deferred stock units, phantom stock and dividend equivalents), other than First National Bankshares Stock Options (each, a “First National Bankshares Stock-Based Award”), whether vested or unvested, which is outstanding or unsatisfied immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall cease to represent a right or award with respect to shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock and shall be converted, at the Effective Time, into a right or award with respect to shares of Fifth Third Common Stock (an “Assumed Stock-Based Award”), on the same terms and conditions (including expiration date, vesting and exercise provisions) as were applicable under the First National Bankshares Stock-Based Awards (but taking into account any non-discretionary changes thereto provided for in the First National Bankshares Stock Plans or other First National Bankshares Benefit Plan or in any award agreement thereunder by reason of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby). The number of shares of Fifth Third Common Stock subject to each such Assumed Stock-Based Award shall be equal to the number of shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock subject to the First National Bankshares Stock-Based Award, multiplied by the Exchange Ratio (rounded to the nearest whole share of Fifth Third Common Stock). All dividend equivalents credited to the account of each holder of a First National Bankshares Stock-Based Award as of the Effective Time shall remain credited to such holder’s account immediately following the Effective Time, subject to adjustment in accordance with the foregoing.

(c) Fifth Third represents and warrants that it has taken all corporate action necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Fifth Third Common Stock upon the exercise of the Assumed Stock Options. On or as soon as practicable following the Closing Date, Fifth Third shall file a registration statement on an appropriate form or a post-effective amendment to a previously filed registration statement under the Securities Act (defined below) with respect to the issuance of the shares of Fifth Third Common Stock subject to the Assumed Stock Options and the Assumed Stock-Based Awards and shall use its reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement or registration statements (and maintain the current status of the prospectus or prospectuses contained therein) for so long as such equity awards remain outstanding.

(d) First National Bankshares represents and warrants that it has taken such action as is necessary to amend the First National Bankshares Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “First National Bankshares DRIP”) to eliminate or suspend, pending the consummation of the Merger, the right of any participant to make a new election, or increase an existing election, to purchase additional shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock under the First National Bankshares DRIP other than upon a dividend reinvestment; provided, however, that those participants who made such an election prior to August 1, 2004 shall be permitted to purchase additional shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock under the First National Bankshares DRIP pursuant to such existing election. Prior to the Effective Time and within five (5) business days of the anticipated Effective Time, First National Bankshares will take such action as is necessary to provide no additional shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock will be purchased under the First National Bankshares DRIP. Immediately prior to and effective as of the Effective Time and subject to the consummation of the Merger, First National Bankshares shall terminate the First National Bankshares DRIP.

1.7 Articles of Incorporation. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, the Articles of Incorporation of Fifth Third Financial (the “Fifth Third Financial Articles”), shall be the Articles of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with applicable law.

1.8 Code of Regulations. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, the Code of Regulations of Fifth Third Financial shall be the Code of Regulations of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with applicable law.

1.9 Tax Consequences. It is intended that the Merger shall constitute a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and that this Agreement shall constitute a “plan of reorganization,” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-2(g) as defined in Section 368 of the Code, for the purposes of Sections 354 and 361 of the Code.

2.1 Deposit of Merger Consideration. At or prior to the Effective Time, Fifth Third shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with Computershare Trust Company of New York, or a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to Fifth Third (the “Exchange Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of Certificates, for exchange in accordance with this Article II, certificates representing the shares of Fifth Third Common Stock and cash in lieu of any fractional shares (such cash and certificates for shares of Fifth Third Common Stock, together with any dividends or distributions with respect thereto, being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”), to be issued pursuant to Section 1.4 and paid pursuant to Section 1.4 and Section 2.2(e) in exchange for outstanding shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock.

2.2 Delivery of Merger Consideration.

(a) As soon as practicable, but in no event later than fifteen business days, after the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall mail to each holder of record of one or more Certificates a letter of transmittal in customary form as reasonably agreed by the parties (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent) and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for certificates representing the shares of Fifth Third Common Stock and any cash in lieu of fractional shares into which the shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock represented by such Certificate or Certificates shall have been converted pursuant to this Agreement. Upon proper surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Certificate or Certificates for exchange and cancellation, together with such properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal, the holder of such Certificate or Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, as applicable, (i) a certificate representing that number of whole shares of Fifth Third Common Stock to which such holder of First National Bankshares Common Stock shall have become entitled pursuant to the provisions of Article I and (ii) a check representing the sum of the amount of any cash in lieu of fractional shares which such holder has the right to receive in respect of the Certificate or Certificates surrendered pursuant to the provisions of this Article II, and the Certificate or Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued on any cash in lieu of fractional shares or on any unpaid dividends and distributions payable to holders of Certificates.

(b) No dividends or other distributions declared after the Effective Time with respect to Fifth Third Common Stock shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate until the holder thereof shall surrender such Certificate in accordance with this Article II. After the surrender of a Certificate in accordance with this Article II, the record holder thereof shall be entitled to receive any such dividends or other distributions, without any interest thereon, which theretofore had become payable with respect to shares of Fifth Third Common Stock represented by such Certificate.

(c) If any certificate representing shares of Fifth Third Common Stock is to be issued in a name other than that in which the Certificate or Certificates surrendered in exchange therefor is or are registered, it shall be a condition of the issuance thereof that the Certificate or Certificates so surrendered shall be properly endorsed (or accompanied by an appropriate instrument of transfer) and otherwise in proper form for transfer, and that the person requesting such exchange shall pay to the Exchange Agent in advance any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance of a certificate representing shares of Fifth Third Common Stock in any name other than that of the registered holder of the Certificate or Certificates surrendered, or required for any other reason, or shall establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

(d) After the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of First National Bankshares of the shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, certificates representing such shares are presented for transfer to the Exchange Agent, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for certificates representing shares of Fifth Third Common Stock and Cash Consideration as provided in this Article II.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Fifth Third Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates, no dividend or distribution with respect to Fifth Third Common Stock shall be payable on or with respect to any fractional share, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a shareholder of Fifth Third. In lieu of the issuance of any such fractional share, Fifth Third shall pay to each former shareholder of First National Bankshares who otherwise would be entitled to receive such fractional share an amount in cash determined by multiplying (i) the average of the closing-sale prices of Fifth Third Common Stock on the securities market or stock exchange in which the Fifth Third Common Stock principally trades, as reported by The Wall Street Journal for the ten consecutive trading days ending on the fifth trading day immediately preceding the date of the Effective Time by (ii) the fraction of a share (rounded to the nearest thousandth when expressed in decimal form) of Fifth Third Common Stock to which such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to Section 1.4.

(f) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by the shareholders of First National Bankshares as of the first anniversary of the Effective Time shall be paid to Fifth Third. Any former shareholders of First National Bankshares who have not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to Fifth Third for payment of the shares of Fifth Third Common Stock and cash in lieu of any fractional shares and any unpaid dividends and distributions on the Fifth Third Common Stock deliverable in respect of each share of First National Bankshares Common Stock such shareholder holds as determined pursuant to this Agreement, in each case, without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of First National Bankshares, Fifth Third, the Exchange Agent or any other person shall be liable to any former holder of shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock for any amount delivered in good faith to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws.

(g) In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if reasonably required by Fifth Third, the posting by such person of a bond in such amount as Fifth Third may determine is reasonably necessary as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the shares of Fifth Third Common Stock and any cash in lieu of fractional shares deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement.

As used in this Agreement, the term “Material Adverse Effect” means, with respect to First National Bankshares, Fifth Third or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, a material adverse effect, when considered individually or in the aggregate, on (i) the business, operations, results of operations or financial condition of such party and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole or (ii) the ability of such party to timely consummate the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that with respect to clause (i), the following shall not be deemed to have a Material Adverse Effect: any change or event caused by or resulting from (A) changes in prevailing interest rates, currency exchange rates or other economic or monetary conditions in the United States or elsewhere, (B) changes in United States or foreign securities markets, including changes in price levels or trading volumes, (C) changes or events, after the date hereof, affecting the financial services industry generally and not specifically relating to Fifth Third or First National Bankshares or their respective Subsidiaries, as the case may be, (D) changes, after the date hereof, in generally accepted accounting principles or regulatory accounting requirements applicable to banks or savings associations and their holding companies generally, (E) changes, after the date hereof, in laws, rules or regulations of general applicability or interpretations thereof by any Governmental Entity (as defined below), (F) actions or omissions of Fifth Third or First National Bankshares taken with the prior written consent of the other or required hereunder, (G) any outbreak of major hostilities in which the United States is involved or any act of terrorism within the United States or directed against its facilities or citizens wherever located; and provided, further, that in no event shall a change in the trading prices of a party’s capital stock, by itself, constitute a Material Adverse Effect.

As used in this Agreement, the word “Subsidiary” when used with respect to any party means any bank, savings bank, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, or other organization, whether incorporated or unincorporated, which is or should be consolidated with such party for financial reporting purposes under GAAP (as defined below).

option agreements and other interest rate risk management arrangements (collectively, the “Fifth Third Interest Rate Management Instruments”), whether entered into for the account of Fifth Third or for the account of a customer of Fifth Third or one of its Subsidiaries, were entered into in the ordinary course of business and, to Fifth Third’s knowledge, (i) in accordance with prudent banking practice and applicable rules, regulations and policies of any Regulatory Authority and with counterparties believed to be financially responsible at the time, (ii) are legal, valid and binding obligations of Fifth Third or one of its Subsidiaries enforceable in accordance with their terms (except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and the availability of equitable remedies),and (iii) are in full force and effect. Fifth Third and each of its Subsidiaries have duly performed in all material respects all of their material obligations under the Fifth Third Interest Rate Management Instruments to the extent that such obligations to perform have accrued, and to Fifth Third’s knowledge, there are no material breaches, violations or defaults or allegations or assertions of such by any party thereunder.

3.16 Environmental Liability. There are no legal, administrative, arbitral or other proceedings, claims, actions, causes of action, private environmental investigations or remediation activities or governmental investigations of any nature seeking to impose, or that could reasonably result in the imposition, on Fifth Third or any Fifth Third Subsidiary any liability or obligation arising under common law or under any local, state or federal environmental statute, regulation, ordinance, code, order, decree or other law (collectively, “Environmental Laws”), including, without limitation, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (“CERCLA”), pending or, to the knowledge of Fifth Third, threatened against Fifth Third or any Fifth Third Subsidiary, which liability or obligation will, either individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on Fifth Third. To the knowledge of Fifth Third, there is no reasonable basis for any such proceeding, claim, action or governmental investigation that would impose any liability or obligation that will, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on Fifth Third. Neither Fifth Third nor any Fifth Third Subsidiary is subject to any agreement, order, judgment, decree, letter or memorandum by or with any court, governmental authority, regulatory agency or third party imposing any liability or obligation with respect to the foregoing that will have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on Fifth Third. To the best knowledge of Fifth Third, there are and have been no conditions at any property owned, operated or otherwise used by, or the subject of a security interest on behalf of, Fifth Third or any Fifth Third Subsidiary, and there are no events, conditions, circumstances, practices, plans or legal requirements that could give rise to obligations or liabilities of Fifth Third or any Fifth Third Subsidiary under any Environmental Law that, either individually or in the aggregate, would have a Material Adverse Effect on Fifth Third.

of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Proxy Statement/Prospectus will comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder, except that no representation or warranty is made by Fifth Third with respect to statements made or incorporated by reference therein based on information supplied by First National Bankshares for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

3.19 Internal Controls. The records, systems, controls, data and information of Fifth Third and its Subsidiaries are recorded, stored, maintained and operated under means (including any electronic, mechanical or photographic process, whether computerized or not) that are under the exclusive ownership and direct control of Fifth Third or its Subsidiaries or accountants (including all means of access thereto and therefrom), except for any non-exclusive ownership and non-direct control that would not reasonably be expected to have a materially adverse effect on the system of internal accounting controls described in the following sentence. As and to the extent described in the Fifth Third Reports filed with the SEC prior to the date hereof, Fifth Third and its Subsidiaries have devised and maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurances regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Fifth Third (i) has designed disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to Fifth Third, including its consolidated Subsidiaries, is made known to the management of Fifth Third by others within those entities, and (ii) has disclosed, based on its most recent evaluation prior to the date hereof, to Fifth Third’s auditors and the audit committee of Fifth Third’s Board of Directors (x) any significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal controls which could adversely affect in any material respect Fifth Third’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data and have identified for Fifth Third’s auditors any material weaknesses in internal controls and (y) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in Fifth Third’s internal controls.

Since March 31, 2004, none of the bank Subsidiaries of Fifth Third (the “Fifth Third Bank Subsidiaries”) has incurred any unusual or extraordinary loan losses which are material to Fifth Third and the Fifth Third Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis; to the best knowledge of Fifth Third and in light of each of the Fifth Third Bank Subsidiaries’ historical loan loss experience and its management’s analysis of the quality and performance of its loan portfolio, its reserves for loan losses are adequate to absorb potential loan losses determined on the basis of management’s continuing review and evaluation of the loan portfolio and its judgment as to the impact of economic conditions on the portfolio.

There are no Liens for any Taxes (other than a Lien for current real property or ad valorem Taxes not yet due and payable) on any the Assets of First National Bankshares or its Subsidiaries.

First National Bankshares and each of its Subsidiaries have duly performed in all material respects all of their material obligations under the FLB Interest Rate Risk Management Instruments to the extent that such obligations to perform have accrued, and to First National Bankshares’ knowledge, there are no material breaches, violations or defaults or allegations or assertions of such by any party thereunder.

4.22 Reorganization. As of the date of this Agreement, First National Bankshares is not aware of any fact or circumstance that would reasonably be expected to prevent the Merger from qualifying as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

4.23 Information Supplied. None of the information supplied or to be supplied by First National Bankshares for inclusion or incorporation by reference in (i) the Form S-4 will, at the time the Form S-4 is filed with the SEC and at the time it becomes effective under the Securities Act, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and (ii) the Proxy Statement/Prospectus will, at the date of mailing to shareholders and at the time of the meeting of shareholders to be held in connection with the Merger, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

As and to the extent described in the First National Bankshares Reports filed with the SEC prior to the date hereof, First National Bankshares and its Subsidiaries have devised and maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurances regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP. First National Bankshares (i) has designed disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to First National Bankshares, including its consolidated Subsidiaries, is made known to the management of First National Bankshares by others within those entities, and (ii) has disclosed, based on its most recent evaluation prior to the date hereof, to First National Bankshares’ auditors and the audit committee of First National Bankshares’ Board of Directors (x) any significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal controls which could adversely affect in any material respect First National Bankshares’ ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data and have identified for First National Bankshares’ auditors any material weaknesses in internal controls and (y) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in First National Bankshares’ internal controls.

There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of First National Bankshares, threatened which would reasonably be expected to lead to the revocation, amendment, failure to renew, limitation, suspension or restriction of any such permits, licenses, exemptions, orders and approvals, except for such revocations, amendments, failures to renew, limitations, suspensions or restrictions which, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on First National Bankshares.

Fifth Third shall cause the shares of Fifth Third Common Stock to be issued in the Merger to be qualified for quotation or listing on the securities market or stock exchange in which the Fifth Third Common Stock principally trades, subject to official notice of issuance, prior to the Effective Time.

6.8 Employee Matters.

(a) From the Effective Time through such later date as Fifth Third deems reasonably practicable (such date being referred to herein as the “Benefits Transition Date”), Fifth Third shall provide the employees of First National Bankshares and its Subsidiaries as of the Effective Time (the “Covered Employees”) with employee benefits and compensation plans, programs and arrangements that are substantially similar, in the aggregate, to the employee benefits and compensation plans, programs and arrangements provided by First National Bankshares or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, to such employees immediately prior to the Effective Time. From and after the Benefits Transition Date, Fifth Third shall provide the Covered Employees with employee benefits and compensation plans, programs and arrangements (other than Fifth Third’s defined benefit pension plan, which has been frozen) that are substantially similar, in the aggregate, to those provided to similarly situated employees of Fifth Third and its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, those employees of First National Bankshares and its Subsidiaries (other than temporary and/or co-operative employees) who do not have an employment, change in control or severance agreement and who are not employed by Fifth Third or who are terminated or voluntarily resign after being notified that, as a condition of employment, such employee must work at a location more than thirty (30) miles from such employee’s former location of employment or that such employee’s salary will be materially decreased, in any case and in both cases, within ninety (90) days after the Effective Time, and who sign and deliver a termination and release agreement in a form substantially similar to one of those attached hereto as Exhibit 6.7(a), shall be entitled to severance pay: (i) in the case of officers of First National Bankshares and all other exempt employees, equal to two (2) weeks of pay for each complete year of service (and a prorated amount for any partial year of service) with a minimum severance pay equal to (4) weeks pay; and (ii) in the case of all other employees, equal to one (1) week of pay for each complete year of service (and a prorated amount for any partial year of service) with a minimum severance pay equal to two (2) weeks of pay. For purposes of this Section 6.8, “service” shall include

service with subsidiaries of First National Bankshares and service with members of the Affiliated Group of which First National Bankshares was a member prior to January 1, 2004. The severance payment referred to above shall replace the First National Bankshares’ current severance pay plan, if any, and a new severance pay plan will be in effect but in no event shall there be any duplication of severance pay. First National Bankshares shall cooperate with Fifth Third to comply with, and provide notices regarding, the Workers Adjustment and Retraining Act or any similar state or local law, including without limitation, providing notices to employees and government representatives. Nothing contained in this Section shall be construed or interpreted to limit or modify in any way Fifth Third’s at will employment policy. In no event shall severance pay or any severance period be taken into account in determining the amount of any other benefit (including but not limited to, an individual’s benefit under any pension plan). If, by reason of the controlling plan document, controlling law or otherwise, severance pay or any severance period is taken into account in determining any other benefit, the severance pay otherwise payable shall be reduced by the present value of the additional benefit determined under other benefit plans attributable to the severance pay or period.

(b) From and after the Effective Time, Fifth Third shall (i) provide all Covered Employees with service credit for purposes of eligibility, participation, vesting and levels of benefits (but not for benefit accruals under any defined benefit pension plan except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.8(b)), under any employee benefit or compensation plan, program or arrangement adopted, maintained or contributed to by Fifth Third or any of its Subsidiaries in which Covered Employees are eligible to participate, for all periods of employment with First National Bankshares or any of its Subsidiaries (or their predecessor entities) prior to the Effective Time, to the same extent that such service was credited under a comparable plan of First National Bankshares, (ii) cause any pre-existing conditions or limitations, eligibility waiting periods or required physical examinations under any welfare benefit plans of Fifth Third or any of its Subsidiaries to be waived with respect to the Covered Employees and their eligible dependents, to the extent waived under the corresponding plan in which the applicable Covered Employee participated immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (iii) give the Covered Employees and their eligible dependents credit for the plan year in which the Effective Time (or commencement of participation in a plan of Fifth Third or any of its Subsidiaries) occurs towards applicable deductibles and annual out-of-pocket limits for expenses incurred prior to the Effective Time (or the date of commencement of participation in a plan of Fifth Third or any of its Subsidiaries). For purposes of any cash balance pension plan maintained or contributed to by Fifth Third or any of its Subsidiaries in which Covered Employees become eligible to participate following the Effective Time, the Covered Employees’ level of benefit accruals under any such plans (for periods of service following the date on which the Covered Employees commence participation in such plans) shall be determined based on the Covered Employees’ credited service prior to the Effective Time and with the Surviving Corporation following the Effective Time.

(c) From and after the Effective Time, Fifth Third shall honor all accrued and vested benefit obligations to and all contractual rights of current and former employees, directors and consultants of First National Bankshares and its Subsidiaries under the First National Bankshares Benefit Plans.

(d) Nothing in this Section 6.8 or in this Agreement shall be interpreted as preventing the Surviving Corporation or Fifth Third from amending, modifying or terminating any Fifth Third Benefit Plan or other contract, arrangement, commitment or understanding in accordance with their terms and applicable law.

(e) If Fifth Third so requests, First National Bankshares or its Subsidiaries shall develop a plan and timetable for terminating, as of a date not earlier than one (1) day prior to the Effective Time, any or all of the First National Bankshares Benefit Plans, and, with the advance written approval of Fifth Third, shall proceed with the implementation of said termination plan and timetable; provided no First National Bankshares Benefit Plan shall be required to be terminated if such termination would adversely affect the qualification of such First National Bankshares Benefit Plan under the Code.

(f) If Fifth Third so timely requests, First National Bankshares or its Subsidiaries shall take all actions necessary to file an application for determination letter with the IRS prior to the Effective Time, for any First National Bankshares Benefit Plan requested by Fifth Third.

(g) With respect to any First National Bankshares Benefit Plan that provides for vesting of benefits, there shall be no discretionary acceleration of vesting without Fifth Third’s consent whether or not such discretionary acceleration of vesting is provided under the terms of the Benefit Plan; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, First National Bankshares may in its sole discretion accelerate the exercisability of any or all options to acquire First National Bankshares Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the date hereof, with such acceleration to be effective, if at all, immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(h) If Fifth Third so requests, First National Bankshares or any of its Subsidiaries shall take all actions necessary to freeze any or all First National Bankshares Benefit Plans as of a date not earlier than one day prior to the Effective Time such that no further contributions (including employee 401(k) contributions) shall be made and no further benefits shall accrue under such First National Bankshares Benefit Plans after such freeze date.

(i) Except as provided otherwise pursuant hereto, First National Bankshares and any of its Subsidiaries, without the advance written consent of Fifth Third, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, shall not (i) adopt any amendments to the First National Bankshares Benefit Plans after the date of this Agreement; or (ii) make any distributions from the First National Bankshares Benefit Plans after the date of this Agreement other than in the ordinary course of operations of such First National Bankshares Benefit Plans; or (iii) make any contributions to the defined benefit plans maintained by First National Bankshares or discretionary contributions to any of the First National Bankshares Benefit Plans after the date of this Agreement except discretionary contributions in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices to its employees; or (iv) take any action which would reduce or restrict the availability of surplus (excess of plan assets over plan liabilities) under any defined benefit plan as defined in Section 414(j) of the Code.

(j) First National Bankshares shall provide to Fifth Third from and after the Effective Time, documentation reasonably satisfactory to Fifth Third demonstrating that Fifth Third has all power and authority necessary to amend, transfer, roll-over or satisfy in full any payment or contribution obligations under, and/or terminate any or all of the First National Bankshares Benefit Plans, thereby reducing or eliminating future liability.

6.9 Indemnification; Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance.

(a) In the event of any threatened or actual claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal or administrative, including, without limitation, any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation in which any individual who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date of this Agreement, or who becomes prior to the Effective Time, a director or officer of First National Bankshares or any of its Subsidiaries, or who is or was serving at the request of First National Bankshares or any of its Subsidiaries as a director or officer of another person, including any entity specified in the First National Bankshares Disclosure Schedule (the “Indemnified Parties”), is, or is threatened to be, made a party based in whole or in part on, or arising in whole or in part out of, or pertaining to (i) the fact that he is or was a director or officer of First National Bankshares or any of its Subsidiaries or any entity specified in the First National Bankshares Disclosure Schedule or any of their respective predecessors or (ii) this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, whether in any case asserted or arising before or after the Effective Time, the parties hereto agree to cooperate and use their reasonable best efforts to defend against and respond thereto. It is understood and agreed that after the Effective Time, Fifth Third shall indemnify and hold harmless, as and to the fullest extent permitted by law, each such Indemnified Party against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses (including reimbursement for reasonable fees and expenses in advance of the final disposition of any claim, suit, proceeding or investigation to each Indemnified Party to the fullest extent permitted by law upon receipt of any undertaking required by applicable law), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any such threatened or actual claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation.

(b) Fifth Third shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the individuals serving as officers and directors of First National Bankshares, its Subsidiaries or any entity specified in the First National Bankshares Disclosure Schedule immediately prior to the Effective Time to be covered for a period of three (3) years from the Effective

Time by the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy maintained by First National Bankshares (provided that Fifth Third may substitute therefor policies of at least the same coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions which are not less advantageous than such policy) with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time which were committed by such officers and directors in their capacity as such; provided that in no event shall Fifth Third be required to expend in any one year an amount in excess of 150% of the annual premiums currently paid by First National Bankshares (which current amount is set forth in Section 6.9 of the First National Bankshares Disclosure Schedule) for such insurance (the “Insurance Amount”).

(c) In the event Fifth Third or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person, then, and in each such case, to the extent necessary, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Fifth Third assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.9.

(d) The provisions of this Section 6.9 shall survive the Effective Time and are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party and his or her heirs and representatives.

6.10 Additional Agreements. In case at any time after the Effective Time any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement (including, without limitation, any merger between a Subsidiary of Fifth Third, on the one hand, and a Subsidiary of First National Bankshares, on the other) or to vest the Surviving Corporation with full title to all properties, assets, rights, approvals, immunities and franchises of any of the parties to the Merger, the proper officers and directors of each party to this Agreement and their respective Subsidiaries shall take all such necessary action as may be reasonably requested by, and at the sole expense of, Fifth Third.

6.11 Advice of Changes. First National Bankshares, Fifth Third and Fifth Third Financial shall each promptly advise the other party of any change or event (i) having or reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on it or (ii) which it believes would or would be reasonably likely to cause or constitute a breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained herein; provided, however, that no such notification shall affect the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the parties (or remedies with respect thereto) or the conditions to the obligations of the parties under this Agreement; provided further that a failure to comply with this Section 6.11 shall not constitute the failure of any condition set forth in Article VII to be satisfied unless the underlying Material Adverse Effect or material breach would independently result in the failure of a condition set forth in Article VII to be satisfied.

6.12 Dividends. After the date of this Agreement, each of First National Bankshares and Fifth Third shall coordinate with the other the declaration of any dividends in respect of First National Bankshares Common Stock and Fifth Third Common Stock and the record dates and payment dates relating thereto, it being the intention of the parties hereto that holders of First National Bankshares Common Stock shall not receive two dividends, or fail to receive one dividend, for any quarter with respect to their shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock and any shares of Fifth Third Common Stock any such holder receives in exchange therefor in the Merger.

6.13 Exemption from Liability Under Section 16(b). Fifth Third and First National Bankshares agree that, in order to most effectively compensate and retain First National Bankshares Insiders (as defined below) in connection with the Merger, both prior to and after the Effective Time, it is desirable that First National Bankshares Insiders not be subject to a risk of liability under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law in connection with the conversion of shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock and First National Bankshares Stock Options into shares of and options for Fifth Third Common Stock in the Merger, and for that compensatory and retentive purpose agree to the provisions of this Section 6.13. Assuming that First National Bankshares delivers to Fifth Third the Section 16 Information (as defined below) in a timely fashion, the Board of Directors of Fifth Third, or a committee of Non-Employee Directors thereof (as such term is defined for purposes of Rule 16b-3(d) under the Exchange Act), shall adopt a resolution providing

that the receipt by First National Bankshares Insiders of Fifth Third Common Stock in exchange for shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock, and of options for Fifth Third Common Stock upon conversion of options for First National Bankshares Common Stock, in each case pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to the extent such securities are listed in the Section 16 Information, are intended to be exempt from liability pursuant to Section 16(b) under the Exchange Act. The term “Section 16 Information” shall mean information accurate in all material respects regarding First National Bankshares Insiders, the number of shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock held by each such First National Bankshares Insider and expected to be exchanged for Fifth Third Common Stock in the Merger, and the number and description of the options for First National Bankshares Common Stock held by each such First National Bankshares Insider and expected to be converted into options for Fifth Third Common Stock in connection with the Merger; provided that the requirement for a description of any First National Bankshares Stock Options shall be deemed to be satisfied if copies of all First National Bankshares Stock Plans, and agreements evidencing grants thereunder, under which such First National Bankshares Stock Options have been granted, have been made available to Fifth Third. The term “First National Bankshares Insiders” shall mean those officers and directors of First National Bankshares who are subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act and who are listed in the Section 16 Information.

6.14 Acquisition Proposals.

(a) First National Bankshares agrees that it, its Subsidiaries and each of their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives (including any investment banker, financial advisor, attorney, accountant or other representative retained by First National Bankshares or any of its Subsidiaries) will (i) cease immediately and terminate any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any third parties conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, and (ii) will not release any third party from, or waive any provisions of, any confidentiality or standstill agreement to which it or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates is a party with respect to any Acquisition Proposal. From and after the date of this Agreement and until the earlier of the termination of this Agreement or the Effective Time, except in compliance with this Section 6.14, First National Bankshares will not, and will not permit its directors, officers, employees, investment bankers, attorneys, accountants or other representatives, agents or Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate, or encourage any Acquisition Proposals; (ii) engage in discussions with third parties, or negotiations concerning, or provide any non-public information to any person or entity in connection with, any Acquisition Proposal; or (iii) agree to, approve, recommend or otherwise endorse or support any Acquisition Proposal, except that, if First National Bankshares receives a communication that it believes, after consultation with its outside counsel, may upon clarification constitute a Superior Proposal (as defined below), First National Bankshares may communicate with the person making such communication to the limited extent necessary to obtain the necessary clarification.

(b) As used in this Agreement, “Acquisition Proposal” means any tender or exchange offer involving First National Bankshares or any of its Subsidiaries, any proposal for a merger, consolidation or other business combination involving First National Bankshares or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Southern Community Merger and the First Bradenton Merger), any proposal or offer to acquire in any manner an interest in excess of fifteen percent (15%) of the outstanding equity securities, or a substantial portion of the business or assets of, First National Bankshares or any of its Subsidiaries (other than assets or inventory in the ordinary course of business or assets held for sale), any proposal or offer with respect to any recapitalization or restructuring with respect to First National Bankshares or any of its Subsidiaries or any proposal or offer with respect to any other transaction similar to any of the foregoing with respect to First National Bankshares or any of its Subsidiaries other than pursuant to the Merger.

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.14(a) above, if a corporation, limited liability company, limited liability partnership, partnership, person or other entity or group (a “Third Party”) after the date of this Agreement and prior to the First National Bankshares shareholders meeting required by Section 6.3 submits to First National Bankshares’ Board of Directors an unsolicited, bona fide, written Acquisition Proposal, and First

National Bankshares’ Board of Directors reasonably determines in good faith, after receipt of advice from outside legal counsel that the failure to engage in discussions with the Third Party concerning such Acquisition Proposal would likely cause First National Bankshares’ Board of Directors to breach its fiduciary duties to First National Bankshares and its shareholders, then, in such case, (i) First National Bankshares may (A) furnish information about its business to the Third Party under protection of an appropriate confidentiality agreement containing customary limitations on the use and disclosure of all non-public written or oral information furnished to such Third Party, provided that First National Bankshares must contemporaneously furnish to Fifth Third all such non-public information furnished to the Third Party which has not been previously disclosed to Fifth Third and (B) negotiate and participate in discussions and negotiations with such Third Party; and (ii) if First National Bankshares’ Board of Directors determines that such an Acquisition Proposal is a Superior Proposal, First National Bankshares’ Board of Directors may (subject to the provisions of this Section 6.14) (A) withdraw or adversely modify its approval or recommendation of the Merger and recommend such Superior Proposal or (B) terminate this Agreement, in each case, at any time after the second business day following delivery of written notice to Fifth Third (a “Notice of Superior Proposal”) advising Fifth Third that First National Bankshares’ Board of Directors has received a Superior Proposal, identifying the Third Party and specifying the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal. First National Bankshares may take either of the foregoing actions pursuant to the preceding sentence if, and only if, an Acquisition Proposal that was a Superior Proposal continues to be a Superior Proposal in light of any improved proposal submitted by Fifth Third, considered in good faith by First National Bankshares and with the advice of a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation, prior to the expiration of the two business day period specified in the preceding sentence. For purposes of this Agreement, “Superior Proposal” means any bona fide, written Acquisition Proposal for consideration consisting of cash and/or securities, and otherwise on terms which First National Bankshares’ Board of Directors determines are more favorable to First National Bankshares’ shareholders from a financial point of view than the Merger (or other revised proposal submitted by Fifth Third as contemplated above), after consultation with its outside legal counsel and a financial adviser of nationally recognized reputation and that the Third Party is reasonably likely to consummate the Superior Proposal on the terms proposed, that the Third Party’s offer is fully financed or reasonably capable of being fully financed, and is reasonably likely to receive all required governmental approvals on a timely basis. Further, for purposes of this definition of “Superior Proposal,” the term Acquisition Proposal shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 6.14(b) except that the reference to “15% or more” in the definition of “Acquisition Proposal” shall be deemed to be a reference to “a majority” and “Acquisition Proposal” shall only be deemed to refer to a transaction involving First National Bankshares.

(d) Nothing contained in this Section 6.14 shall prohibit First National Bankshares from taking, and disclosing to its shareholders, a position required by Rule 14e-2(a) or Rule 14d-9(e) under the Exchange Act.

(e) First National Bankshares will notify Fifth Third promptly, and in any event within 24 hours, if (i) a bona fide Acquisition Proposal is made or is modified in any material respect (including the principal terms and conditions of any such Acquisition Proposal or modification thereto and the identity of the offeror) or (ii) First National Bankshares furnishes non-public information to, or enters into discussions or negotiations with respect to an Acquisition Proposal with, any Third Party.

(f) In addition to the obligations of First National Bankshares set forth in this Section 6.14, First National Bankshares, as promptly as practicable, will advise Fifth Third orally and in writing of any request for information which First National Bankshares reasonably believes could lead to an Acquisition Proposal or of any Acquisition Proposal, and the material terms and conditions of such request, Acquisition Proposal or inquiry, and First National Bankshares will keep Fifth Third informed in all material respects of the status of any such request, Acquisition Proposal or inquiry.

It is understood and agreed that, without limitation of First National Bankshares’ obligations hereunder, any violation of this Section 6.14 by any director, officer, affiliate, financial advisor, accountant, attorney or other advisor or representative of First National Bankshares, whether or not such person or entity is purporting to act

on behalf of First National Bankshares, shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 6.14 by First National Bankshares. First National Bankshares agrees that, as of the date hereof, it, its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees, investment bankers, attorneys, accountants and other representatives and agents, shall immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions and negotiations with any Third Party (other than Fifth Third and its representatives) conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal.

6.15 Restructuring Efforts. If First National Bankshares shall have failed to obtain the requisite vote or votes of its shareholders for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement at a duly held meeting of its shareholders or at any adjournment or postponement thereof, each of the parties shall in good faith use its reasonable best efforts to negotiate a restructuring of the transaction provided for herein (it being understood that neither party shall have any obligation to alter or change the amount or kind of the Merger Consideration in a manner adverse to such party or its shareholders) and to resubmit the transaction to the First National Bankshares shareholders for approval.

6.16 Executive Benefit Trust. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall First National Bankshares (a) take any action under the terms of any First National Bankshares Benefit Plan, employment agreement, change in control agreement or similar arrangement relating to the payment thereof or funding of obligations thereunder which would have the effect of increasing any such payments or funding, nor will First National Bankshares adopt or implement any new such plan, agreement or arrangement, without the prior written consent of Fifth Third, or (b) make any payments or fund any obligations under any First National Bankshares Benefit Plan, employment agreement, change in control agreement or similar arrangement that First National Bankshares deems are mandatory or required thereunder without prior written notice to Fifth Third; provided, however, that First National Bankshares shall continue to be able to make salary and other compensation payments in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice to its employees.

6.17 No Multiple Change of Control Payment. First National Bankshares shall take such action as is necessary so that any officer, director or employee of Southern Community or First Bradenton, upon the consummation of the Southern Community Merger or the First Bradenton Merger respectively, receives any type of payment under a change of control agreement, severance agreement, or otherwise in connection with those mergers, respectively, shall not be entitled to receive any such payment upon the consummation of the Merger.

6.18 Non-Compete Agreements. First National Bankshares shall use its reasonable best efforts to have each Director of any First National Bankshares Banking Subsidiary and each person who served as a Director of Southern Community or First Bradenton as of August 1, 2004 or at any time thereafter prior to the consummation of the Southern Community Merger or the First Bradenton Merger, respectively, execute and deliver to First National Bankshares a non-compete agreement with terms substantially identical to those in the Non-Compete Election Notice (as defined herein) being delivered by each member of the Board of Directors of First National Bankshares pursuant to Section 7.3(d).

ARTICLE VIII. TERMINATION AND AMENDMENT

8.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Effective Time, whether before or after approval of the Merger by the shareholders of First National Bankshares:

(a) by mutual consent of Fifth Third and First National Bankshares in a written instrument, if the Board of Directors of each so determines by a vote of a majority of the members of its respective entire Board of Directors;

(b) by either Fifth Third or First National Bankshares, upon written notice to the other party, if a Governmental Entity that must grant Fifth Third a Requisite Regulatory Approval has denied approval of the Merger and such denial has become final and nonappealable; or any Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Merger, and such order, decree, ruling or other action has become final and nonappealable; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(b) shall not be available to any party whose failure to comply with any provision of this Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, such action;

(c) by either Fifth Third or First National Bankshares, upon approval or action by their respective Board of Directors, by written notice to the other party, if the Merger shall not have been consummated on or before the first anniversary of the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(c) shall not be available to any party whose failure to comply with any provision of this Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Effective Time to occur on or before such date;

(d) by either Fifth Third or First National Bankshares, upon approval or action by their respective Board of Directors, if there shall have been a breach by the other party of any of the covenants or agreements or any of the representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement on the part of First National Bankshares, in the case of a

termination by Fifth Third, or Fifth Third, in the case of a termination by First National Bankshares, which breach either individually or in the aggregate would result in, if occurring or continuing on the Closing Date, the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.2 or Section 7.3, as the case may be, and which is not cured within thirty (30) days following written notice thereof to the breaching party or, by its nature, cannot be cured within such time period;

(e) by Fifth Third if the aggregate amount of consolidated shareholders’ equity (including Common Stock, Additional Paid-In Capital and Retained Earnings and excluding Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income) of First National Bankshares immediately prior to the Effective Time, as shown by and reflected in its books and records of accounts on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied, is less than $550,000,000.

(f) by either Fifth Third or First National Bankshares, if the required vote of First National Bankshares shareholders in favor of this Agreement shall not have been obtained upon a vote taken thereon at the duly convened First National Bankshares Shareholders Meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof at which a vote on such was taken; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(f) shall not be available to any party that has failed to comply in all material respects with its obligations under Article VI;

(g) by either Fifth Third or First National Bankshares (provided that the terminating party is not then in breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement under the applicable standard set forth in Section 9.2 of this Agreement or in material breach of any covenant contained in this Agreement) in the event that any of the conditions precedent to the obligations of such party to consummate the Merger cannot be satisfied or fulfilled by the date specified in Section 8.1(c) of this Agreement;

(h) by Fifth Third, if the Board of Directors of First National Bankshares has authorized, recommended, proposed or publicly announced its intention to authorize, recommend or propose any Acquisition Proposal with any person other than Fifth Third;

8.2 Effect of Termination. (a) In the event of termination of this Agreement by either First National Bankshares or Fifth Third as provided in Section 8.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of Fifth Third or First National Bankshares or their respective officers or directors, except with respect to Sections 6.2(b), 8.2, 9.3, 9.4, 9.9 and 9.10, which shall survive such termination and except that no party shall be relieved or released from any liabilities or damages arising out of its breach of this Agreement.

(b) In the event that this Agreement is terminated:

(i) by either Fifth Third or First National Bankshares pursuant to Section 8.1(f) and prior to the First National Bankshares Shareholders Meeting, (x) the First National Bankshares Board of Directors shall have withdrawn its recommendation or refused to recommend to the shareholders of First National Bankshares that they vote to approve this Agreement and (y) there was an Acquisition Proposal that had not been withdrawn or rejected by First National Bankshares; or

(ii) by Fifth Third pursuant to Section 8.1(d) as a result of a material breach by First National Bankshares of Section 6.3 by reason of a failure to call the First National Bankshares Shareholders Meeting or a failure to prepare and mail to its shareholders the Proxy Statement/Prospectus; or

(iii) by Fifth Third pursuant to Section 8.1(h) or by First National Bankshares pursuant to Section 8.1(i);

then, on the business day following such termination, First National Bankshares shall pay to Fifth Third a termination fee equal to $50,000,000 (the “First National Bankshares Termination Fee”) by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

(i) by either Fifth Third or First National Bankshares pursuant to Section 8.1(f) and at the time of the First National Bankshares Shareholders Meeting (or at any adjournment thereof) an Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly disclosed and not withdrawn; or

(ii) by Fifth Third pursuant to Section 8.1(d) as a result of any knowing, willful or intentional breach of this Agreement on the part of First National Bankshares (other than a material breach by First National Bankshares of Section 6.3 as set forth in Section 8.2(b)(ii) or of Section 6.14); provided that: (A) at the time of such termination First National Bankshares shall not be entitled to terminate the Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(d); and (B) either (1) an Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly disclosed at or before the time of such breach; or (2) an overture from a bona fide person or entity shall have been communicated to the First National Bankshares Board of Directors at or before the time of such breach to engage in an agreement, plan or transaction to acquire or purchase all or a substantial portion of the assets of or a substantial equity interest in, or to effect any recapitalization, liquidation or dissolution involving or a business combination or other similar transaction with, First National Bankshares or any First National Bankshares Subsidiary (including, without limitation, a bona fide tender offer or exchange offer to purchase First National Bankshares common stock) other than with Fifth Third or a Fifth Third Subsidiary.

and, within twelve months of any termination described in (c)(i), (ii) or (iii) above, First National Bankshares consummates, or enters into a definitive agreement with respect to consummation of, an Acquisition Proposal (an “Alternative Transaction Event”),

then,

First National Bankshares shall within five Business Days after the occurrence of such Alternative Transaction Event, pay to Fifth Third the First National Bankshares Termination Fee by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

(d) The First National Bankshares Termination Fee, if payable, will be the sole and exclusive remedy of Fifth Third for all claims under this Agreement other than for amounts payable pursuant to Section 8.2(e). If First National Bankshares fails to pay all amounts due to Fifth Third on the dates specified, then First National Bankshares shall pay all costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred by Fifth Third in connection with any action or proceeding (including the filing of any lawsuit) taken by it to collect such unpaid amounts, together with interest on such unpaid amounts at the prime lending rate prevailing at such time, as published in The Wall Street Journal, from the date such amounts were required to be paid until the date actually received by Fifth Third.

The parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in Sections 8.2(b) and 8.2(c) are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and constitute liquidated damages and not a penalty, and that, without these agreements, the parties would not have entered into this Agreement.

(e) In the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Sections 8.1(d), (h) or (i) or, under circumstances that trigger payment of the First National Bankshares Termination Fee, Section 8.1(f), the non-terminating party shall immediately reimburse the terminating party for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses relating to the Merger in an amount not to exceed $3,000,000, which amount shall not be deemed an exclusive remedy or liquidated damages.

8.3 Amendment. Subject to compliance with applicable law and Section 1.1(b), this Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto, upon the approval of their respective Boards of Directors, at any time before or after approval of the matters presented in connection with the Merger by the shareholders of First National Bankshares; provided, however, that after any approval of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by the shareholders of First National Bankshares, there may not be, without further approval of such shareholders, any amendment of this Agreement that changes the amount or the form of the consideration to be delivered hereunder to the holders of First National Bankshares Common Stock, other than as contemplated by this Agreement. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto.

8.4 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, the parties hereto, by action taken or authorized by their respective Board of Directors, may, to the extent legally allowed, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties hereto, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein; provided, however, that after any approval of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by the shareholders of First National Bankshares, there may not be, without further approval of such shareholders, any extension or waiver of this Agreement or any portion thereof which reduces the amount or changes the form of the consideration to be delivered to the holders of First National Bankshares Common Stock hereunder, other than as contemplated by this Agreement. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such party, but such extension or waiver or failure to insist on strict compliance with an obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

ARTICLE IX. GENERAL PROVISIONS

9.1 Closing. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) will take place at 10:00 a.m. on a date and at a place to be specified by the parties, which shall be no later than five business days after the satisfaction or waiver (subject to applicable law) of the latest to occur of the conditions set forth in Article VII hereof (other than those conditions that by their nature or terms are to be satisfied or waived at Closing), unless extended by mutual agreement of the parties (the “Closing Date”).

Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.2(a), Section 3.2(d), Section 3.3(a) and Section 3.3(b)(i), in the case of Fifth Third, and Section 4.2(a), Section 4.2(d), Section 4.3(a) and Section 4.3(b)(i), in the case of First National Bankshares, shall be deemed untrue and incorrect if not true and correct in all material respects.
