EXPLANATORY NOTE
On August 30, 2016, F.N.B. Corporation changed its state of incorporation from the State of Florida to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania pursuant to a plan of conversion. This reincorporation was approved by the shareholders at the annual meeting of shareholders held on May 18, 2016. As a result of the reincorporation, among other things, the affairs of F.N.B. ceased to be governed by Florida corporation laws and became subject to the corporation laws of Pennsylvania; the articles of incorporation and bylaws that were in effect immediately prior to the reincorporation were replaced by new articles of incorporation filed with the Pennsylvania Department of State and new bylaws approved in connection with the reincorporation and plan of conversion; and each share of common stock of F.N.B. as a Florida corporation was converted into a common share of F.N.B. as a Pennsylvania corporation.
The Registration Statements on Form S-8, File Nos. 333-176202 and 333-204986 (collectively, the Registration Statements), relating to the F.N.B. Corporation 2007 Incentive Compensation Plan, were originally filed by F.N.B. Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) on August 10, 2011 and June 16, 2015, respectively. Pursuant to Rule 414 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), the Registrant is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statements solely to reflect the change in the Registrants state of incorporation as a result of the reincorporation or as necessary to keep the Registration Statements from being misleading in any material respect. In accordance with the Securities Act, the Registrant expressly adopts the Registration Statements, as modified by this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1, as its own for all purposes of the Securities Act and Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), as a result of the reincorporation.

II-1
Item 6. | Indemnification of Directors and Officers. |
The Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law permits corporations to indemnify any person who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending or completed action or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by, or in the right of, the corporation) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a representative of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a representative of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including an employee benefit plan) against expenses (including attorneys fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the action or proceeding, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
With respect to proceedings by or in the right of the corporation, the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law permits a corporation to indemnify the same persons listed above, against expenses (including attorneys fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the defense or settlement of the action if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation. However, indemnification is not available for any claim, issue or matter as to which the person is adjudged to be liable, unless a court of common pleas where the registered office of the corporation is located or the court in which the action was brought determines that he or she is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity.
F.N.B.s articles of incorporation and bylaws provide that F.N.B. shall indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law in connection with any actual or threatened action, suit or proceeding, civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other (whether brought by or in the right of F.N.B. or otherwise) arising out of their service to F.N.B. or to another organization at F.N.B.s request, or because of their positions with F.N.B. F.N.B.s bylaws also state that F.N.B. shall pay the expenses incurred by a director or officer in defending or investigating a threatened or pending action, suit or proceeding in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by the director or officer to repay those amounts if it is ultimately determined that he or she was not entitled to be indemnified. F.N.B.s articles of incorporation further provide that F.N.B. may purchase and maintain insurance to protect itself and any such director or officer against any liability, cost or expense asserted against or incurred by him or her with respect to such service, whether or not F.N.B. would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability by law or under the provisions of this paragraph.
F.N.B. maintains insurance policies insuring directors and officers against certain liabilities they may incur in their capacity as such.
Item 7. | Exemption from Registration Claimed. |
Not applicable.
Item 8. | Exhibits. |
The exhibits to this registration statement are listed in the Exhibit Index hereto and are incorporated herein by reference.
Item 9. | Undertakings. |
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) | To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: |
(i) | To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; |
(ii) | To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, |
II-2
individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the Calculation of Registration Fee table in the effective registration statement. |
(iii) | To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement; |
Provided, however, that: paragraphs (a)(l)(i) and (a)(l)(ii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-8 and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.
(2) | That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
(3) | To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. |
(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrants annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Re: | Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statements on Form S-8 |
(File Nos. 333-176202 and 333-204986) |
F.N.B. Corporation 2007 Incentive Compensation Plan |
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to F.N.B. Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation (the Corporation), in connection with Post-Effective Amendment No. 1, being filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) on the date hereof, to (i) the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-176202), which was originally filed with the Commission on August 10, 2011 (the 2011 Registration Statement), and to (ii) the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-204986), which was originally filed with the Commission on June 16, 2015 (the 2015 Registration Statement and, collectively with the 2011 Registration Statement, the Registration Statements). As amended by Post-Effective Amendment No. 1, the 2011 Registration Statement shall relate to the offering of 900,000 common shares of the Corporation, par value $0.01 per share (the Common Shares), pursuant to the F.N.B. Corporation 2007 Incentive Compensation Plan (the Plan). As amended by Post-Effective Amendment No. 1, the 2015 Registration Statement shall relate to the offering of 1,500,000 Common Shares pursuant to the Plan.
For purposes of this opinion letter, we have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of all such agreements, instruments and documents as we deemed necessary to render the opinions hereinafter expressed, including but not limited to: the Registration Statements, each as amended by Post-Effective Amendment No. 1, the Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation as currently in effect, the Bylaws of the Corporation as currently in effect and the Plan. In our examination, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies, the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents, and the accuracy and completeness of all records, information and statements submitted to us by officers and representatives of the Corporation. We have also assumed that Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 shall have become effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), and its effectiveness shall not have been terminated or rescinded.
Board of Directors August 30, 2016 Page 2 |
Our examination of matters of law in connection with the opinions set forth below has been limited to, and accordingly our opinions herein are limited to, the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law, as amended. We express no opinion herein as to any other laws, statutes, ordinances, rules or regulations.
Based upon, subject to and limited by the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Common Shares have been duly authorized, and when the Common Shares have been issued in accordance with the Plan, the Common Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
We hereby consent to the filing of a copy of this opinion as an exhibit to Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to each of the Registration Statements. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act, or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder. This opinion is based upon currently existing statutes, rules, regulations and judicial decisions and we disclaim any obligation to advise you of any change in any of these sources of law or subsequent legal or factual developments which might affect any matters or opinions set forth herein.
Very truly yours,
