MERGER PROPOSED – YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT

 

 

On April 26, 2016, Foundation Bancorp, Inc., or Foundation Bancorp, and Pacific Continental Corporation, or Pacific Continental, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (which, as amended, we refer to as the “merger agreement”) that provides for the merger of the two companies. Under the merger agreement, Foundation Bancorp, will merge with and into Pacific Continental, with Pacific Continental as the surviving corporation (which we refer to as the “merger”), followed immediately by the merger of Foundation Bank with and into Pacific Continental Bank, with Pacific Continental Bank as the surviving bank.

In the merger, each issued and outstanding share of Foundation Bancorp common stock (other than dissenting shares) will be converted into the right to receive “merger consideration” consisting of either (1) cash in an amount equal to $12.50 or (2) 0.7911 shares of Pacific Continental common stock. The preferred stock of Foundation Bancorp will become convertible into the right to receive the merger consideration with respect to 1,500,000 shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock, together with cumulative cash dividends payable to the holder of such preferred stock through March 25, 2020, as set forth in the charter of Foundation Bancorp. The Merger Agreement also provides that 79,000 shares of restricted stock of Foundation Bancorp granted pursuant to certain equity incentive plans will become fully vested as of the effective time of the merger and the holders of the restricted stock may elect to receive the merger consideration, as provided above. While the amount of the cash consideration paid per share for which an election to receive cash is made will remain $12.50 per share (subject to potential adjustment as provided for in the merger agreement), the market value of the stock consideration will fluctuate with the market price of Pacific Continental common stock.

You will have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received for your shares, subject to proration and allocation procedures set forth in the merger agreement which are intended to ensure that the aggregate cash consideration payable to the holders of Foundation Bancorp stock will be $19,334,017.50, subject to potential adjustment as provided for in the merger agreement. Therefore, your ability to receive cash or shares of Pacific Continental stock in exchange for your shares of Foundation Bancorp stock in accordance with your election may depend upon the election of other Foundation Bancorp shareholders. Pacific Continental may opt to increase the merger consideration in specific circumstances where Foundation Bancorp could otherwise terminate the merger agreement.

Based on the closing price of Pacific Continental’s common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on July     , 2016, the last practicable date before the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the value of the per share merger consideration payable to holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock (including the shares of restricted stock of Foundation Bancorp and the Foundation Bancorp preferred stock on an as-converted basis) was $            . In connection with your vote on the merger, we urge you to obtain current market quotations for Pacific Continental Corporation (NASDAQ trading symbol “PCBK”) and Foundation Bancorp (OTCBB trading symbol “FDNB”).

Based on the current number of shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock outstanding and reserved for issuance under employee benefit plans and the current number of shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock outstanding and convertible into the right to receive the merger consideration, Pacific Continental expects to issue approximately                  shares of common stock in the aggregate to Foundation Bancorp shareholders upon completion of the merger. However, if any increase or decrease in the number of shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock or preferred stock outstanding occurs for any reason prior to the completion of the merger, the actual number of shares issued upon completion of the merger could change.

The obligations of the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement are subject to the satisfaction, on or before the effective time of the merger, of certain conditions. Among other conditions described more fully in “The Merger Agreement – Conditions to Completion of the Merger”, the obligations of Pacific Continental to complete the merger are conditioned upon Foundation Bancorp having total shareholders’ equity, as reflected on its financial statements, of not less than $46,128,000, at the close of business on the last day of the month preceding the effective time of the merger.

Foundation Bancorp will hold a special meeting of its shareholders in connection with the merger. Foundation Bancorp shareholders will be asked to vote to approve the merger agreement and related matters as described in the attached proxy statement/prospectus. Approval of the merger agreement by Foundation Bancorp shareholders requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock and the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock.

The special meeting of Foundation Bancorp shareholders will be held at 3:30 p.m., local time, on                     , at the following address: Foundation Bank, 1110 112th Avenue NE, Bellevue, Washington 98004, West Building Conference Room, 1st Floor.

Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors unanimously recommends that Foundation Bancorp shareholders vote “FOR” the approval of the merger agreement and “FOR” the approval of each of the other matters to be considered at the Foundation Bancorp special meeting.

 

 

This proxy statement/prospectus describes the special meeting, the merger, the documents related to the merger and other related matters. Please carefully read this entire proxy statement/prospectus, including “Risk Factors,” beginning on page 17 for a discussion of the risks associated with the proposed merger and with owning Pacific Continental common stock. You also can obtain information about Pacific Continental from documents that it has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved the merger, the issuance of the Pacific Continental common stock to be issued in the merger or the other transactions described in this document, or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this proxy statement/prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

The securities to be issued in the merger are not savings or deposit accounts or other obligations of any bank or non-bank subsidiary of either Pacific Continental or Foundation Bancorp, and they are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency.

The date of this proxy statement/prospectus is July     , 2016, and it is first being mailed or otherwise delivered to the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp on or about                     , 2016.

NOTICE OF SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS TO BE HELD ON [*], 2016

To the Shareholders of Foundation Bancorp, Inc.:

Foundation Bancorp will hold a special meeting of the holders of its outstanding common stock and its outstanding preferred stock at 3:30 p.m., local time, on                 , 2016, at Foundation Bank, 1110 112th Avenue NE, Bellevue, Washington 98004, West Building Conference Room, 1st Floor, to consider and vote upon the following matters:

 

    a proposal to adopt and approve the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 26, 2016, by and among Pacific Continental Corporation, Pacific Continental Bank, Foundation Bancorp, Inc. and Foundation Bank, pursuant to which Foundation Bancorp will merge with and into Pacific Continental Corporation, as more fully described in the attached proxy statement/prospectus (which we refer to as the “merger proposal”); and

 

    a proposal to adjourn or postpone the special meeting, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies in favor of the merger proposal (which we refer to as an “adjournment proposal”).

We have fixed the close of business on                 , 2016, as the record date for the special meeting. Only Foundation Bancorp common shareholders and Foundation Bancorp preferred shareholders of record at that time are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Foundation Bancorp special meeting, or any adjournment or postponement of the special meeting. Approval of the merger proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock and the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock. Approval of an adjournment proposal would require that the votes cast in favor of the adjournment proposal by each class of Foundation Bancorp stock exceed the votes cast in opposition by each such class of Foundation Bancorp stock.

Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors has unanimously adopted the merger agreement, has determined that the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, are in the best interests of Foundation Bancorp and its shareholders, and unanimously recommends that Foundation Bancorp shareholders vote “FOR” the merger proposal, and “FOR” the adjournment proposal, if necessary or appropriate.

Your vote is very important. We cannot complete the merger unless Foundation Bancorp’s common shareholders and Foundation Bancorp’s preferred shareholders approve the merger proposal.

Regardless of whether you plan to attend the special meeting, please vote as soon as possible. If you hold stock in your name as a shareholder of record of Foundation Bancorp, please complete, sign, date, and return the accompanying proxy card in the enclosed postage-paid return envelope. If you hold your stock in “street name” through a bank or broker, please follow the instructions on the voting instruction card furnished by the record holder. A shareholder who executes a proxy may revoke it at any time before it is exercised by giving written notice to the Secretary of Foundation Bancorp at the address set forth above, by subsequently filing another proxy or by attending the special meeting and voting in person. Executed proxies with respect to shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock or Foundation Bancorp preferred stock with no instructions indicated on the proxy card will be voted “FOR” the merger proposal and “FOR” the adjournment proposal.

The enclosed proxy statement/prospectus provides a detailed description of the special meeting, the merger, the documents related to the merger and other related matters. We urge you to read the proxy statement/prospectus, including any documents incorporated by reference in the proxy statement/prospectus, and its annexes carefully and in their entirety.

In connection with the merger, Foundation Bancorp shareholders will have the opportunity to exercise dissenters’ rights in accordance with the procedures specified in the Revised Code of Washington (“RCW”) sections 23B.13.010 through 23B.13.310. A copy of these statutes is included in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus as Annex B. A dissenting shareholder who follows the required procedures may receive cash in an amount equal to the fair value of his or her shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock or Foundation Bancorp preferred stock, plus accrued interest, in lieu of the merger consideration provided for under the merger agreement. A shareholder who chooses to dissent pursuant to the applicable provisions of the RCW must deliver the required notice specified therein to Foundation Bancorp’s principal executive offices at 1110 112th Avenue NE, Suite 200, Bellevue, Washington 98004. For additional details about dissenters’ rights, please refer to “The Merger – Dissenters’ Rights of Foundation Bancorp Shareholders” on page 57 and Annex B of the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE MERGER AND THE SPECIAL MEETING

The following are some questions that you may have about the merger and the Foundation Bancorp special meeting and brief answers to those questions. We urge you to read carefully the remainder of this proxy statement/prospectus because the information in this section does not provide all of the information that might be important to you with respect to the merger and the special meeting. Additional important information is also contained in the documents incorporated by reference into this proxy statement/prospectus. See “Where You Can Find More Information” on page 96.

Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this proxy statement/prospectus to “Pacific Continental” refer to Pacific Continental, an Oregon corporation, and its subsidiaries, and references to “Foundation Bancorp” refer to Foundation Bancorp, Inc., a Washington corporation, and its subsidiaries.

 

Q: What is the merger?

 

A: Pacific Continental Corporation, Pacific Continental Bank, Foundation Bancorp and Foundation Bank have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 26, 2016 (which, as amended, we refer to as the “merger agreement”). Under the merger agreement, Foundation Bancorp will be merged with and into Pacific Continental Corporation (which we refer to as the “merger”), with Pacific Continental Corporation continuing as the surviving corporation. Immediately following the completion of the merger, Foundation Bancorp’s wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Foundation Bank, will merge with and into Pacific Continental’s wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Pacific Continental Bank (which we refer to as the “bank merger”). Pacific Continental Bank will be the surviving bank in the bank merger. A copy of the merger agreement is included in this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A.

The merger cannot be completed unless, among other things, Foundation Bancorp shareholders approve the proposal to approve the merger agreement (which we refer to as the “merger proposal”).

 

Q: Why am I receiving this proxy statement/prospectus?

 

A: We are delivering this document to you because it is a proxy statement being used by the Foundation Bancorp board of directors to solicit proxies of Foundation Bancorp’s shareholders in connection with approval of the merger and related matters.

In order to approve the merger and related matters, Foundation Bancorp has called a special meeting of its shareholders (which we refer to as the “special meeting”). This document serves as the proxy statement for the special meeting and describes the proposals to be presented at the meeting.

This document is also a prospectus that is being delivered to Foundation Bancorp shareholders because Pacific Continental is offering shares of its common stock to Foundation Bancorp shareholders in connection with the merger.

This proxy statement/prospectus contains important information about the merger and the other proposals being voted on at the special meeting. You should read it carefully and in its entirety. The enclosed materials allow you to have your shares voted by proxy without attending the special meeting. Your vote is important. We encourage you to submit your proxy as soon as possible.

 

Q: In addition to the merger proposal, what else am I being asked to vote on?

 

A: In addition to the merger proposal, Foundation Bancorp is soliciting proxies from its shareholders with respect to a proposal to adjourn or postpone the special meeting, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies in favor of the merger proposal (which we refer to as the “adjournment proposal”).

Completion of the merger is not conditioned upon approval of this proposal.


Table of Contents
Q: What will I receive in the merger?

 

A: If the merger is completed, unless you exercise dissenters’ rights (see “The Merger – Dissenters’ Rights of Foundation Bancorp Shareholders” on page 57 and Annex B), you may elect to receive “merger consideration” consisting of either (1) cash in an amount equal to $12.50 per share or (2) 0.7911 shares of Pacific Continental common stock for each issued and outstanding share of Foundation Bancorp common stock. The outstanding preferred stock of Foundation Bancorp will become convertible into the right to receive the merger consideration with respect to 1,500,000 shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock, together with cumulative cash dividends payable to the holder of such preferred stock through March 25, 2020, as set forth in the charter of Foundation Bancorp. The Merger Agreement also provides that 79,000 shares of restricted stock of Foundation Bancorp granted pursuant to certain equity incentive plans will become fully vested as of the effective time of the merger and the holders of the restricted stock may elect to receive the merger consideration, as provided above. Pacific Continental will not issue any fractional shares of Pacific Continental common stock in the merger. Foundation Bancorp shareholders who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share of Pacific Continental common stock upon the completion of the merger will instead receive an amount in cash (without interest) determined by multiplying the fractional share interest to which you would otherwise be entitled by the per share cash consideration.

You will have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received for your shares, subject to proration and allocation procedures set forth in the merger agreement, which are intended to ensure that the aggregate cash consideration payable to the holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock will be $19,334,017.50, subject to potential adjustment as provided for in the merger agreement. Therefore, your ability to receive cash or shares of Pacific Continental stock in exchange for your shares of Foundation Bancorp stock in accordance with your election may depend upon the election of other Foundation Bancorp shareholders.

Pacific Continental may opt to increase the merger consideration in specific circumstances where Foundation Bancorp could otherwise terminate the merger agreement. For more information regarding these termination rights and the adjustment that may result to the merger consideration, see “The Merger Agreement – Termination of the Merger Agreement”.

 

Q: How will the merger affect Foundation Bancorp restricted stock?

 

A: The merger agreement provides that 79,000 shares of restricted stock of Foundation Bancorp granted pursuant to certain equity incentive plans will become fully vested as of the effective time of the merger. Each holder of a share of restricted stock will be entitled to elect to receive the merger consideration, as provided above, and will be subject to the election and proration procedures described in this proxy statement/prospectus.

For more information, see “The Merger Agreement – Treatment of Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock”.

 

Q: Will the value of the merger consideration change between the date of this proxy statement/prospectus and the time the merger is completed?

 

A: While the amount of the cash consideration paid per share for which an election to receive cash is made will remain $12.50 per share (subject to potential adjustment as provided for in the merger agreement and as described below), the market value of the stock consideration will fluctuate with the market price of Pacific Continental common stock. To the extent that Foundation Bancorp’s transaction expenses exceed $1,200,000 on an after-tax basis (subject, for such purpose, to certain exclusions), any excess shall reduce the per share cash consideration for the transaction by the quotient of such excess divided by the total number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Foundation Bancorp (including that number of shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock into which the shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock shall be convertible). See “The Merger Agreement – Effect of Termination; Expenses; Termination Fees” for additional information.

Table of Contents
Q: How do I make an election with respect to my shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock and Foundation Bancorp preferred stock?

 

A: Each Foundation Bancorp shareholder will receive an election form, which you should complete and return, according to the instructions printed on the form. The election deadline will be 5:00 p.m., Pacific time, on the business day that is five business days prior to the effective date of the merger, or such other date as Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp shall mutually agree upon (the “election deadline”). If you do not send in the election form by the election deadline, you will be deemed not to have made an election and you may be paid in cash, Pacific Continental common stock or a combination of cash and stock depending on, and after giving effect to, the valid cash elections and stock elections that have been made by other Foundation Bancorp shareholders. See “The Merger Agreement – Elections; Allocation”.

 

Q: What do I need to do now?

 

A: After you have carefully read this proxy statement/prospectus in its entirety and have decided how you wish to vote your shares, please vote your shares promptly so that your shares are represented and voted at the special meeting. If you hold your shares in your name as a shareholder of record, you must complete, sign, date and mail your proxy card in the enclosed postage-paid return envelope as soon as possible. Alternatively, you may vote through the internet. Information and applicable deadlines for voting by internet are set forth in the enclosed proxy card instructions. You are encouraged to vote through the internet. If you sign and send in your proxy card and do not indicate how you want to vote, your proxy card will be voted “FOR” approval of the merger agreement and “FOR” the adjournment proposal, if necessary or appropriate. Not returning a proxy card, or not voting in person at the special meeting or abstaining from voting, will have the same effect as voting “AGAINST” the merger proposal. If you hold your shares in “street name” through a bank or broker, you must direct your bank or broker how to vote in accordance with the instructions you have received from your bank or broker. You can choose to attend the special meeting and vote your shares in person instead of completing and returning a proxy card. If you do complete and return a proxy card, you may change your vote at any time up to and including the time of the vote on the day of the special meeting by following the directions in the section “The Special Meeting – Revocability of Proxies and Changes to a Foundation Bancorp Shareholder’s Vote”. “Street name” shareholders who wish to vote in person at the special meeting will need to obtain a legal proxy from the institution that holds their shares.

 

Q: How does Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors recommend that I vote at the special meeting?

 

A: Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the merger proposal, and “FOR” an adjournment proposal, if necessary or appropriate.

 

Q: When and where is the meeting?

 

A: The Foundation Bancorp special meeting will be held at Foundation Bank, 1110 112th Avenue NE, Bellevue, Washington 98004, West Building Conference Room, 1st Floor, on                 ,                 , 2016, at 3:30 p.m., local time.

 

Q: What constitutes a quorum for the special meeting?

 

A: The presence at the special meeting, in person or by proxy, of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock entitled to vote at the special meeting and of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock entitled to vote at the special meeting will constitute a quorum. Abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will be included in determining the number of shares present at the meeting for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum. The absence of a quorum for one class of stock of Foundation Bancorp will not affect the presence of a quorum for the other class of stock of Foundation Bancorp.

Q: How many votes are required to approve each proposal at the special meeting?

Merger proposal. Approval of the merger proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock and the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock. Accordingly, if you mark “ABSTAIN” on your proxy card, fail to either submit a proxy card or vote through the internet or in person at the special meeting or fail to instruct your bank or broker how to vote with respect to the merger proposal, it will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the proposal. In connection with the merger agreement, each of Thomas Ellison, who as of the record date had the right to vote approximately [*]% of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock, and Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, which as of the record date had the right to vote 100% of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock, agreed, subject to certain exceptions, to vote their respective shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock and Foundation Bancorp preferred stock in favor of the merger proposal. For further information, see “The Merger – Voting Agreements”. In addition, in connection with the merger agreement, each of the directors of Foundation Bancorp and Foundation Bank who own shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock and certain officers of Foundation Bancorp and Foundation Bank individually entered into an agreement with Pacific Continental to vote their shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock in favor of the merger agreement and against any competing proposal, subject to certain exceptions. These shareholders in the aggregate held approximately [*]% of Foundation Bancorp’s outstanding common stock as of [*], 2016. For further information, see “The Merger Agreement – Voting and Non-Competition Agreements.”

Adjournment proposal. Approval of the adjournment proposal requires that the votes cast in favor of the proposal by each class of Foundation Bancorp stock exceed the votes cast in opposition by each such class of Foundation Bancorp stock. If you mark “ABSTAIN” on your proxy card, fail to instruct your bank or broker how to vote, or if you are not a “street name” holder and fail to either submit a proxy card entirely or vote through the internet or in person at the special meeting, it will have no effect on such proposal.

 

Q: Why is my vote important?

 

A: If you do not vote, it will be more difficult for Foundation Bancorp to obtain the necessary quorum to hold its special meeting. In addition, your failure to submit a proxy or vote through the internet or in person, or failure to instruct your bank or broker how to vote, or abstention, will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” approval of the merger agreement. Approval of the merger proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock and of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock. The Foundation Bancorp board of directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the merger proposal.

 

Q: If my shares of stock are held in “street name” by my bank or broker, will my bank or broker automatically vote my shares for me?

 

A: No. Your bank or broker cannot vote your shares without instructions from you. You should instruct your bank or broker how to vote your shares in accordance with the instructions provided to you. Please check the voting form used by your bank or broker.

 

Q: Can I attend the meeting and vote my shares in person?

 

A: Yes. All shareholders of Foundation Bancorp, including shareholders of record and shareholders who hold their shares through banks, brokers, nominees or any other holder of record, are invited to attend the special meeting. Holders of record of Foundation Bancorp common stock and Foundation Bancorp preferred stock can vote by proxy or through the internet or in person at the special meeting. If you are not a shareholder of record, you must obtain a proxy card, executed in your favor, from the record holder of your shares, such as a broker, bank or other nominee, to be able to vote in person at the meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the special meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy or through the internet to ensure that your vote is counted.

Q: Can I change my vote after I have mailed in my proxy card?

 

A: Yes. If you are a holder of record of Foundation Bancorp common stock or Foundation Bancorp preferred stock, you may revoke any proxy at any time before it is voted by (1) signing and returning a proxy card with a later date, (2) delivering a written revocation letter to Foundation Bancorp’s corporate secretary, or (3) attending the special meeting in person, notifying the corporate secretary and voting by ballot at the special meeting. Attendance at the special meeting by itself will not automatically revoke your proxy. A revocation or later-dated proxy received by Foundation Bancorp after the vote will not affect the vote. Foundation Bancorp’s corporate secretary’s mailing address is: Corporate Secretary, Foundation Bancorp, Inc., 1110 112th Avenue NE, Suite 200, Bellevue, Washington 98004. If you hold your shares in “street name” through a bank or broker, you should contact your bank or broker to revoke your proxy.

 

Q: Are there any voting agreements in place with existing shareholders?

 

A: Yes. In connection with the merger agreement, each of Thomas Ellison, who as of the record date for the Foundation Bancorp special meeting had the right to vote approximately [*]% of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock, and Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, which as of the record date had the right to vote 100% of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock, agreed, subject to certain exceptions, to vote their respective shares of Foundation Bancorp stock in favor of the merger proposal. The obligations of Mr. Ellison and Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, to vote in favor of the merger terminate on (1) the effective time of the merger, (2) a change in recommendation of the Foundation Bancorp board of directors to approve the merger, or (3) termination of the merger agreement in accordance with its terms, whichever occurs first. For further information, see “The Merger – Voting Agreements.” In addition, in connection with the merger agreement, each of the directors who own shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock and certain of the officers of Foundation Bancorp and Foundation Bank individually entered into an agreement with Pacific Continental to vote their shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock in favor of the merger agreement and against any competing proposal, subject to certain exceptions. These shareholders in the aggregate held approximately [*]% of Foundation Bancorp’s outstanding common stock as of [*], 2016. The obligations of such shareholders terminate in the event that the merger agreement is terminated for any reason in accordance with its terms, without the merger having been consummated, or a change of recommendation of the Foundation Bancorp board of directors to approve the merger. For further information, see “The Merger Agreement – Voting and Non-Competition Agreements.”

 

Q: What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the merger to Foundation Bancorp shareholders?

 

A: The closing of the merger is conditioned upon the receipt by Foundation Bancorp of an opinion from its counsel that the merger will constitute a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Subject to the limitations and qualifications described in the section entitled “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger” beginning on page 78 of this proxy statement/prospectus, a holder of Foundation Bancorp common stock whose shares of common stock are exchanged in the merger for shares of Pacific Continental common stock and cash generally will recognize gain, but not loss, in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) the amount of gain realized (i.e., the excess of the sum of the amount of cash and the fair market value of the Pacific Continental common stock received pursuant to the merger over that holder’s adjusted tax basis in its shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock surrendered) and (2) the amount of cash received pursuant to the merger. Further, a holder of Foundation Bancorp common stock generally will recognize gain or loss with respect to cash received in lieu of fractional shares of Pacific Continental common stock that the Foundation Bancorp shareholder would otherwise be entitled to receive. For further information, see “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger.”

Table of Contents

The U.S. federal income tax consequences described above may not apply to all holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock. Your tax consequences will depend on your individual situation. Accordingly, we strongly urge you to consult your independent tax advisor for a full understanding of the particular tax consequences of the merger to you.

The U.S. federal income tax consequences with respect to holders of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock will generally depend, at least in part, upon facts and circumstances that are particular to such holders (and such owners of any such holder that is a pass-through entity). Accordingly, if you are a holder of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock, we strongly urge you to consult your independent tax advisor for a full understanding of the particular tax consequences of the merger to you.

 

Q: Are Foundation Bancorp shareholders entitled to dissenters’ rights?

 

A: Yes. Under Washington law, Foundation Bancorp shareholders have the right to dissent from the merger and receive cash for the fair value of their shares of Foundation Bancorp stock. To perfect dissenters’ rights, a Foundation Bancorp shareholder must deliver a notice to Foundation Bancorp before the vote is taken at the special meeting and must not vote the shareholder’s shares in favor of the merger. A shareholder electing to dissent must strictly comply with all of the procedures specified in the Revised Code of Washington (“RCW”) sections 23B.13.010 through 23B.13.310. A copy of these statutes is included as Annex B. For further information, see “The Merger – Dissenters’ Rights of Foundation Bancorp Shareholders” on page 57. A shareholder who chooses to dissent pursuant to the applicable provisions of the RCW may provide the required notice specified therein to Foundation Bancorp’s principal executive offices at 1110 112th Avenue NE, Suite 200, Bellevue, Washington 98004. Note that if you return a signed proxy card without voting instructions or with instructions to vote “FOR” the merger proposal, your shares will be voted in favor of the merger proposal and you will lose all dissenters’ rights available under Washington law.

 

Q: If I am a Foundation Bancorp shareholder, should I send in my Foundation Bancorp stock certificates now?

 

A: Simultaneously with the mailing of the election form discussed above, the exchange agent will provide each Foundation Bancorp shareholder with a transmittal letter and instructions for surrendering each share of Foundation Bancorp common stock or Foundation Bancorp preferred stock to the exchange agent in exchange for the merger consideration elected by such Foundation Bancorp shareholder. See “The Merger Agreement – Exchange of Certificates” for more information regarding the procedure for exchanging your Foundation Bancorp stock certificates for the merger consideration.

 

Q: When do you expect to complete the merger?

 

A: Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp expect to complete the merger in the third quarter of 2016. However, Foundation Bancorp cannot assure you as to when or if the merger will be completed. Foundation Bancorp must first obtain shareholder approval of the merger, and certain other closing conditions must be satisfied, including the obtaining of the necessary regulatory approvals.

 

Q: What happens if the merger is not completed?

 

A: If the merger is not completed, holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock and Foundation Bancorp preferred stock will not receive any consideration for their shares in connection with the merger. Instead, Foundation Bancorp will remain an independent company and its common stock will continue to be traded on the over the counter market. In addition, if the merger agreement is terminated under certain circumstances, a termination fee may be required to be paid by either Pacific Continental or Foundation Bancorp. See “The Merger Agreement – Effect of Termination; Expenses; Termination Fees” beginning on page 73 for a discussion of the circumstances under which termination fees will be required to be paid.

Table of Contents

Under the terms and conditions of the merger agreement and in accordance with Oregon and Washington law, upon completion of the merger, Foundation Bancorp will merge with and into Pacific Continental, with Pacific Continental continuing as the surviving corporation. This transaction is referred to in this proxy statement/prospectus as the merger. Immediately following the merger, Foundation Bank will merge with and into Pacific Continental Bank, with Pacific Continental Bank as the surviving bank, which we refer to as the bank merger. We refer to the merger and the bank merger collectively as the mergers.

Merger Consideration (page 63)

If the merger is completed, each share of Foundation Bancorp common stock (other than dissenting shares) will be converted into the right to receive “merger consideration” consisting of either (1) cash in an amount equal to $12.50 per share or (2) 0.7911 shares of Pacific Continental common stock for each issued and outstanding share of Foundation Bancorp common stock. The preferred stock of Foundation Bancorp will become convertible into the right to receive the merger consideration with respect to 1,500,000 shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock, together with cumulative cash dividends payable to the holder of such preferred stock through March 25, 2020, as set forth in the charter of Foundation Bancorp. The merger agreement also provides that 79,000 shares of restricted stock of Foundation Bancorp granted pursuant to certain equity incentive plans shall become fully vested as of the effective time of the merger and the holders thereof may elect to receive the merger consideration, as provided above. While the amount of the cash consideration paid per share for which an election to receive cash is made will remain $12.50 per share (subject to potential adjustment as provided for in the merger agreement and as described below), the market value of the stock consideration will fluctuate with the market price of Pacific Continental common stock. To the extent that Foundation Bancorp’s transaction expenses exceed $1,200,000 on an after-tax basis (subject, for such purpose, to certain exclusions), any excess shall reduce the per share cash consideration for the transaction by the quotient of such excess divided by the total number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Foundation Bancorp (including that number of shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock into which the shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock shall be convertible). See “The Merger Agreement – Effect of Termination; Expenses; Termination Fees” for additional information regarding the potential adjustment to the per share cash consideration.

Pacific Continental common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “PCBK”. Foundation Bancorp common stock is traded over the counter under the OTCBB trading symbol “FDNB”. The following table shows the closing sale prices of Pacific Continental common stock and Foundation Bancorp common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Global Select Market and over the counter, respectively, on April 26, 2016, the last full trading day before the public announcement of the merger agreement, and on July [*], 2016, the last practicable trading day before the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. This table also shows the approximate implied value of the per share stock consideration issuable for each share of Foundation Bancorp common stock (including the shares of restricted stock of Foundation Bancorp and the Foundation Bancorp preferred stock on an as-converted basis), which we calculated by multiplying the closing price of Pacific Continental common stock on those dates by the exchange ratio of 0.7911.

Foundation Bancorp’s Board of Directors Unanimously Recommends that Foundation Bancorp Shareholders Vote “FOR” the Merger Proposal and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal (page 38)

Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors has determined that the merger, the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement are in the best interests of Foundation Bancorp and its shareholders and has unanimously approved and adopted the merger agreement. Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors unanimously recommends that Foundation Bancorp shareholders vote “FOR” the merger proposal and “FOR” the adjournment proposal. For the factors considered by Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors in reaching its decision to approve and adopt the merger agreement, see “The Merger – Foundation Bancorp’s Reasons for the Merger; Recommendation of Foundation Bancorp’s Board of Directors”.

Opinion of Foundation Bancorp’s Financial Advisor (page 42 and Annex C)

In connection with the merger, Foundation Bancorp’s financial advisor, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc. (“Keefe, Bruyette & Woods”), delivered a written opinion, dated April 24, 2016, to the Foundation Bancorp board of directors as to the fairness, from a financial point of view and as of the date of the opinion, to the holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock of the merger consideration in the proposed merger. The full text of the opinion, which describes the procedures followed, assumptions made, matters considered, and qualifications and limitations on the review undertaken by Keefe, Bruyette & Woods in preparing the opinion, is attached as Annex C to this document. The opinion was for the information of, and was directed to, the Foundation Bancorp board of directors (in its capacity as such) in connection with its consideration of the financial terms of the merger. The opinion did not address the underlying business decision of Foundation Bancorp to engage in the merger or enter into the merger agreement or constitute a recommendation to the Foundation Bancorp board in connection with the merger, and it does not constitute a recommendation to any holder of Foundation Bancorp common stock or any shareholder of any other entity as to how to vote in connection with the merger or any other matter (including, with respect to holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock, what election any such shareholder should make with respect to the cash consideration, the stock consideration or any combination thereof).

For further information, see “The Merger – Opinion of Foundation Bancorp’s Financial Advisor”.

What the Holder of Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock Will Receive in the Merger (page 64)

At the closing of the merger, Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, the holder of 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of preferred stock of Foundation will become convertible into the right to receive the merger consideration with respect to 1,500,000 shares of Foundation common stock, together with cumulative cash dividends payable in respect of such preferred stock through March 25, 2020, as set forth in the charter of Foundation Bancorp. Subject to the election and proration procedures described in this proxy statement prospectus, the holder thereof may elect to receive the per share stock consideration or the per share cash consideration payable in the merger. In connection with the merger agreement, Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, has agreed, subject to certain exceptions, to vote its shares of preferred stock of Foundation in favor of the merger proposal, satisfying the vote required for the preferred stockholders to approve the merger proposal. Pursuant to its voting agreement with Pacific Continental, Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, has agreed to waive and not assert or perfect any dissenters’ rights or any liquidation rights that such shareholder may have by virtue of ownership of the shares in connection with the merger. The obligations of Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, under the voting agreement terminate on (1) the effective time of the merger, (2) a change in recommendation of the Foundation Bancorp board of directors to approve the merger, or (3) termination of the merger agreement in accordance with its terms, whichever occurs first. Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, as the holder of the Foundation Bancorp preferred stock, will also receive a cumulative cash dividend at closing, which would be $4,035,938 if the closing occurred on June 30, 2016, which amount represents the total cumulative dividend payable to such preferred stockholder through March 25, 2020.

What Holders of Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock Will Receive in the Merger (page 65)

At the closing of the merger, each outstanding share of restricted stock awarded by Foundation Bancorp, whether vested or unvested, will become fully vested so that all the restrictions on the restricted stock shall lapse as of the effective time of the merger and the holder thereof may elect to receive the per share stock consideration or the per share cash consideration, or a combination thereof, payable in the merger, subject to the election and proration procedures described in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Foundation Bancorp Will Hold its Special Meeting on                 ,                 , 2016 (page 27)

The special meeting of Foundation Bancorp shareholders will be held on                 , 2016, at 3:30 p.m. local time, at Foundation Bank, 1110 112th Avenue NE, Bellevue, Washington 98004, West Building Conference Room, 1st Floor. At the special meeting, Foundation Bancorp shareholders will be asked to:

 

    approve the merger proposal; and

 

    approve an adjournment proposal, if necessary or appropriate.

Only holders of record of Foundation Bancorp common stock and Foundation Bancorp preferred stock at the close of business on                 , 2016, will be entitled to vote at the special meeting. Each share of Foundation Bancorp common stock and Foundation Bancorp preferred stock is entitled to one vote on each proposal to be considered at the Foundation Bancorp special meeting. As of the record date, there were                  shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock and 15,000 shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock entitled to vote at the special meeting. As of the record date, the directors and officers of Foundation Bancorp beneficially owned and were entitled to vote approximately                  shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock representing approximately     % of the shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock outstanding on that date. As of the record date, Thomas Ellison beneficially owned and was entitled to vote approximately                  shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock, representing approximately     % of the shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock outstanding on that date. As of the record date, Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, beneficially owned and was entitled to vote 15,000 shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock, representing 100% of the shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock outstanding on that date. Mr. Ellison, Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, and the directors and certain officers of Foundation Bancorp and Foundation Bank have agreed, subject to certain exceptions, to vote their respective shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock and Foundation Bancorp preferred stock in favor of the merger proposal. For further information, see “The Merger Agreement – Voting Agreements” and “ – Voting and Non-Competition Agreements”.

Approval of the merger proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock and the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock. To approve the adjournment proposal, the votes cast in favor of the proposal by each such class of Foundation Bancorp stock must exceed the votes cast in opposition by each class of stock. Accordingly, if you mark “ABSTAIN” on your proxy card, fail to either submit a proxy card or vote through the internet or in person at the special meeting or fail to instruct your bank or broker how to vote with respect to the merger proposal, it will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the merger proposal. If you mark “ABSTAIN” on your proxy card, fail to instruct your bank or broker how to vote, or if you are not a “street name” holder and fail to submit a proxy card entirely or vote through the internet or in person at the special meeting, it will have no effect on the adjournment proposal.

The Merger Will Be Tax-Free to Holders of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock as to the Shares of Pacific Continental Common Stock They Receive (page 78)

The closing of the merger is conditioned upon the receipt by Foundation Bancorp of an opinion from its counsel that the merger will constitute a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

Table of Contents

Subject to the limitations and qualifications described in the section entitled “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger” beginning on page 78 of this proxy statement/prospectus, a holder of Foundation Bancorp common stock whose shares of common stock are exchanged in the merger for shares of Pacific Continental common stock and cash generally will recognize gain, but not loss, in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) the amount of gain realized (i.e., the excess of the sum of the amount of cash and the fair market value of the Pacific Continental common stock received pursuant to the merger over that holder’s adjusted tax basis in its shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock surrendered) and (2) the amount of cash received pursuant to the merger. Further, a holder of Foundation Bancorp common stock generally will recognize gain or loss with respect to cash received in lieu of fractional shares of Pacific Continental common stock that the Foundation Bancorp shareholder would otherwise be entitled to receive.

For further information, see “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger”.

The U.S. federal income tax consequences described above may not apply to all holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock. Your tax consequences will depend on your individual situation. Accordingly, we strongly urge you to consult your independent tax advisor for a full understanding of the particular tax consequences of the merger to you.

The U.S. federal income tax consequences with respect to holders of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock will generally depend, at least in part, upon facts and circumstances that are particular to such holders (and such owners of any such holder that is a pass-through entity). Accordingly, if you are a holder of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock, we strongly urge you to consult your independent tax advisor for a full understanding of the particular tax consequences of the merger to you.

Interests of Foundation Bancorp’s Directors and Officers in the Merger (page 54)

Foundation Bancorp shareholders should be aware that some of Foundation Bancorp’s directors and officers have interests in the merger and have arrangements that are different from, or in addition to, those of Foundation Bancorp shareholders generally. Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors was aware of these interests and considered these interests, among other matters, when making its decision to adopt the merger agreement, and in recommending that Foundation Bancorp shareholders vote in favor of approving the merger agreement.

These interests include the following:

 

    Prior to the closing of the merger, any holder of outstanding Foundation Bancorp restricted stock awarded under a Foundation Bancorp equity incentive plan, whether vested or unvested, will be entitled to receive the merger consideration with respect to such shares of restricted stock, and will be subject to the election and proration procedures described in this proxy statement/prospectus. Subject to such procedures, the holder thereof may elect to receive the per share stock consideration or the per share cash consideration, or a combination thereof, payable in the merger.

 

    One current director of Foundation Bancorp is a representative of Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, the holder of 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock. In accordance with the merger agreement, the preferred stock of Foundation Bancorp will become convertible into the right to receive the merger consideration with respect to 1,500,000 shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock. In addition, Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, will receive cumulative cash dividends payable with respect to such preferred stock through March 25, 2020, as set forth in the charter of Foundation Bancorp.

 

   

After the effective time of the merger, Pacific Continental will make the change in control payments provided for in written employment agreements entered into between Foundation Bancorp and certain

officers of Foundation Bancorp prior to the date of the merger agreement, regardless of whether such officers will continue as employees of Pacific Continental.

 

    The Foundation Bancorp compensation & governance committee has authorized the payment of transaction bonus payments to six officers in conjunction with the merger. A partial payment was made to five of the officers on December 21, 2015. The remaining payments to the five officers and the full payment to the sixth officer will be made upon a successful close of the merger in 2016. The committee authorized total payments to Duane Woods, Jocelyn Lane, Randy Cloes, Richard Deglman, Brett Ballman and Eileen Magnusson, in the following amounts: $135,000, $80,000, $80,000, $80,000, $80,000, and $50,000, respectively; with $505,000 payable to such officers in the aggregate. Pacific Continental has agreed to pay Duane Woods a supplemental transaction bonus in the amount of $135,000 after the closing of the merger.

 

    In accordance with the merger agreement, two representatives of Foundation Bancorp will join the boards of directors of Pacific Continental and Pacific Continental Bank following the merger.

 

    Under the merger agreement, Foundation Bancorp directors and officers are entitled to continued indemnification and to coverage under a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy for a period of six years after the merger.

 

    As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, certain of the executive officers of Foundation Bancorp have accepted offers of employment with Pacific Continental. Following the merger, Jocelyn Lane, Executive Vice President and Market President, will be employed by Pacific Continental Bank in the position of Executive Vice President, Market President, Greater Seattle Market; Brett Ballman, Senior Vice President – Director of Operations, Risk and Regulatory Affairs, will be employed by Pacific Continental Bank as a senior vice president, Director of Internal Audit; and Eileen Magnusson, Senior Vice President and Director of Human Resources, will be employed by Pacific Continental Bank as a vice president, HR Business Partner.

Foundation Bancorp Shareholders Who Do Not Vote in Favor of the Merger Agreement May Be Entitled to Assert Dissenters’ Rights (page 57)

Under Washington law, Foundation Bancorp shareholders have the right to dissent from the merger and receive cash for the fair value of their shares of Foundation Bancorp stock. To perfect dissenters’ rights, a Foundation Bancorp shareholder must deliver a notice to Foundation Bancorp before the vote is taken at the special meeting and must not vote the shareholder’s shares in favor of the merger. A shareholder electing to dissent must strictly comply with all of the procedures specified in the Revised Code of Washington (“RCW”) Sections 23B.13.010 through 23B.13.310. A copy of these statutes is included as Annex B. For further information, see “The Merger – Dissenters’ Rights of Foundation Bancorp Shareholders” on page 57.

Conditions that Must Be Satisfied or Waived for the Merger to Occur (page 70)

Currently, Foundation Bancorp and Pacific Continental expect to complete the merger in the third quarter of 2016. As more fully described in this proxy statement/prospectus and in the merger agreement, the completion of the merger depends on a number of conditions being satisfied or, where legally permissible, waived. These conditions include, among others, (1) approval of the merger proposal by Foundation Bancorp’s shareholders, (2) the receipt of required regulatory approvals, (3) effectiveness under the federal securities laws of the registration statement of which this proxy statement/prospectus is a part, (4) authorization for listing on the Nasdaq Global Select Market of the shares of Pacific Continental common stock to be issued in the merger, (5) the absence of any order, injunction or other legal restraint preventing the completion of the merger or making the completion of the merger illegal, (6) subject to the materiality standards provided in the merger

agreement, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp, (7) performance in all material respects by each of Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp of its obligations under the merger agreement, (8) holders of not more than ten percent (10%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock and that number of shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock into which the shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock are convertible shall have demanded or be entitled to demand payment of the fair value of their dissenters’ shares under applicable provisions of the RCW, and (9) receipt by Foundation Bancorp of an opinion from its counsel as to certain tax matters. In addition, the obligations of Pacific Continental to complete the merger are conditioned upon Foundation Bancorp having total shareholders’ equity, as reflected on its financial statements, of not less than $46,128,000, at the close of business on the last day of the month preceding the effective time of the merger. At March 31, 2016, Foundation Bancorp had total shareholders’ equity of $46.8 million. For further information, see “The Merger Agreement – Conditions to Completion of the Merger”.

Neither Foundation Bancorp nor Pacific Continental can be certain when, or if, the conditions to the merger will be satisfied or waived, or that the merger will be completed.

Non-Solicitation (page 68)

As more fully described in this proxy statement/prospectus and in the merger agreement, and subject to the exceptions summarized below, Foundation Bancorp has agreed not to initiate or solicit or engage in any negotiations or have discussions with any other party with respect to a competing acquisition proposal, or to enter into any agreement relating to any such proposal, unless Foundation Bancorp receives an unsolicited bona fide proposal that the board of directors, prior to the approval of the merger by the Foundation Bancorp shareholders at the special meeting, determines in good faith and after consultation with its outside legal counsel and its independent financial advisors constitutes, or is reasonably likely to constitute, a proposal that is more favorable from a financial point of view to its shareholders than the merger (a “superior proposal”), and as to which the Foundation Bancorp Board also determines in good faith, and based on the advice of its outside legal counsel, that failure to do so would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties. Foundation Bancorp, before shareholder approval of the merger agreement, is permitted to, following receipt of an unsolicited bona fide acquisition proposal that its board of directors determines in good faith and after consultation with its outside legal counsel and its independent financial advisors constitutes, or is reasonably likely to constitute, a superior proposal, (1) provide confidential information or data to the party making the acquisition proposal and its representatives under the terms of a confidentiality agreement at least as favorable in all material respects, in the aggregate, to Foundation Bancorp as those contained in the confidentiality agreement between Foundation Bancorp and Pacific Continental, and (2) engage in negotiations or have discussions regarding the acquisition proposal.

Termination of the Merger Agreement (page 72)

The merger agreement may be terminated:

 

    by the mutual written consent of Foundation Bancorp and Pacific Continental;

 

    by either Foundation Bancorp or Pacific Continental, by majority vote of its respective board of directors and written notice to the other party, if the merger has not become effective by April 30, 2017;

 

    by Pacific Continental or Foundation Bancorp, in the event of a material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement which cannot be or has not been cured within 30 days of written notice from the non-breaching party, and where the breach would allow the non-breaching party to terminate the merger agreement and the terminating party is not in material breach of the merger agreement;

 

   

by Foundation Bancorp, prior to, but not after, the approval of the merger agreement by the Foundation Bancorp shareholders, if: (i) Foundation Bancorp is not in material breach of the merger agreement; (ii) Foundation Bancorp receives an unsolicited bona fide acquisition proposal that is not withdrawn and

 



 

14


Table of Contents
 

that the Foundation Bancorp board of directors determines in good faith constitutes a superior proposal; (iii) the Foundation Bancorp board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside legal counsel and independent financial advisors) that failure to accept the superior proposal would be more likely than not inconsistent with its fiduciary obligations; (iv) Foundation Bancorp provides Pacific Continental prior written notice at least three business days prior to terminating the merger agreement, which notice states that the Foundation Bancorp board has received a superior proposal and, absent any revision to the terms and conditions of the merger agreement, the Foundation Bancorp board has determined to terminate the merger agreement; (v) during this three business day period, Foundation Bancorp negotiates in good faith with Pacific Continental (to the extent Pacific Continental wishes to negotiate) to enable Pacific Continental to make an improved offer such that the acquisition proposal at issue would cease to constitute a superior proposal; (vi) at the end of this three business day period (or such earlier time that Pacific Continental advises Foundation Bancorp that it no longer wishes to negotiate to amend the merger agreement), the Foundation Bancorp board of directors, after taking into account any modification to the terms of the merger agreement and the merger proposed by Pacific Continental, continues to believe that the acquisition proposal constitutes a superior proposal and Foundation Bancorp enters into a definitive agreement for such superior proposal; and (vii) Foundation Bancorp, prior to termination of the merger agreement, pays the applicable termination fee to Pacific Continental (see “The Merger Agreement – Effect of Termination; Expenses; Termination Fees”);

 

    by either party, if any statute, rule, regulation, judgment, decree, injunction or other order permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting consummation of the merger shall become final and non-appealable (whether before or after the approval of the merger by the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp);

 

    by either party, if the Foundation Bancorp shareholders fail to approve the merger agreement; or

 

    by Pacific Continental, if the Foundation Bancorp board of directors (i) submits the merger agreement to its shareholders without a recommendation for approval or with any adverse conditions on, or qualifications of, such recommendation for approval; (ii) otherwise withdraws or materially and adversely modifies (or discloses its intention to withdraw or materially and adversely modify) its recommendation; or (iii) recommends to its shareholders a superior proposal.

Effect of Termination; Expenses; Termination Fee (page 73)

The merger agreement generally provides that all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement shall be paid for by the party incurring such expense.

If, however, the merger agreement is terminated by Pacific Continental in the event of a material breach by Foundation Bancorp of any representation, warranty or covenant which is not cured, or if the board of directors of Foundation Bancorp submits the merger agreement to its shareholders without a recommendation for approval or with any adverse conditions on, or qualifications of, such recommendation for approval, otherwise withdraws or materially and adversely modifies its recommendation or recommends to its shareholders a superior proposal, the merger agreement provides for Foundation Bancorp to pay to Pacific Continental the sum of $1,000,000. If the merger agreement is terminated by Foundation Bancorp prior to its obtaining shareholder approval of the merger proposal in order to enter into a definitive acquisition agreement with respect to a superior proposal, the merger agreement provides for Foundation Bancorp to pay to Pacific Continental the sum of $1,000,000. In such circumstances, or in the event the merger agreement is terminated by either party due to Foundation Bancorp’s shareholders not having approved the merger agreement, and Foundation Bancorp publicly announces a proposal, plan or intention to enter into an agreement to engage in an acquisition proposal prior to twelve (12) months from the date of termination, and such acquisition proposal had been proposed prior to the date of the Foundation Bancorp special meeting, then Foundation Bancorp is required to pay to Pacific Continental a termination fee of $2,000,000 (reduced by the amounts paid or payable, as provided above). If the merger agreement is terminated

 



 

15


Table of Contents

by Foundation Bancorp in the event of a material breach by Pacific Continental of any representation, warranty or covenant which is not cured, the merger agreement provides for Pacific Continental to pay to Foundation Bancorp the sum of $2,000,000.

The merger agreement provides that each party shall pay its respective transaction expenses, including expenses related to legal, accounting and advisory services. To the extent that Foundation Bancorp’s transaction expenses exceed $1,200,000 on an after-tax basis (subject, for such purpose, to certain exclusions), any excess shall reduce the per share cash consideration for the transaction by the quotient of such excess divided by the total number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Foundation Bancorp (including that number of shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock into which the shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock shall be convertible).

See “The Merger Agreement – Effect of Termination; Expenses; Termination Fees” for additional information.

Regulatory Approvals Required for the Merger (page 60)

Subject to the terms of the merger agreement, Foundation Bancorp has agreed to cooperate with Pacific Continental and use its reasonable best efforts to assist Pacific Continental in obtaining all regulatory approvals (or waivers or non-objections) necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement. Under applicable law, the merger must be approved by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, or “Federal Reserve Board,” and the bank merger must be approved (or waived or not objected to) by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or “FDIC”, the Director of the Oregon Division of Finance and Corporate Securities, or “Oregon Director” and the Agency Director of the Washington State Department of Financial Institutions, or “Washington Director”. Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp filed all of the required applications, and filed a request for a waiver from the Federal Reserve Board of its application requirements that would apply to this merger. As of the date hereof, the FDIC and the Oregon Director have approved the bank merger applications, and the Federal Reserve Board has granted the requested waiver.

Although neither Foundation Bancorp nor Pacific Continental knows of any reason why the remaining regulatory approval cannot be obtained in a timely manner, Foundation Bancorp and Pacific Continental cannot be certain when or if it will be obtained.

The Rights of Foundation Bancorp Shareholders Will Change as a Result of the Merger (page 82)

The rights of Foundation Bancorp shareholders will change as a result of the merger due to differences in Pacific Continental’s and Foundation Bancorp’s governing documents and due to differences in the laws of the states of incorporation of Pacific Continental (Oregon) and Foundation Bancorp (Washington). The rights of Foundation Bancorp shareholders are governed by Foundation Bancorp’s articles of incorporation and bylaws, each as amended to date, and by the corporate laws of the State of Washington. Upon the completion of the merger, Foundation Bancorp shareholders will become shareholders of Pacific Continental, as the continuing legal entity in the merger, and the rights of Foundation Bancorp shareholders will thereafter be governed by Pacific Continental’s articles of incorporation and bylaws, each as amended to date, and by the corporate laws of the State of Oregon.

See “Comparison of Shareholder Rights” for a description of the material differences in shareholders’ rights under the Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp governing documents and the laws of their respective states of incorporation.

Risk Factors (page 17)

You should consider all of the information contained in or incorporated by reference into this proxy statement/prospectus in deciding how to vote for the proposals presented in the proxy statement/prospectus. In particular, you should consider the factors described under “Risk Factors” beginning on page 17.

RISK FACTORS

In addition to general investment risks and the other information contained in or incorporated by reference into this proxy statement/prospectus, including the matters addressed under the section “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” you should carefully consider the following risk factors in deciding how to vote on the proposals presented in this proxy statement/prospectus. You should also consider the other information in this proxy statement/prospectus and the other documents incorporated by reference into this proxy statement/prospectus. See “Where You Can Find More Information”.

Because the market price of Pacific Continental common stock will fluctuate, the value of the stock consideration to be received by Foundation Bancorp shareholders in the merger is uncertain.

If the merger is completed, each share of Foundation Bancorp common stock (other than dissenting shares) will be converted into the right to receive “merger consideration” consisting of either (1) cash in an amount equal to $12.50 per share or (2) 0.7911 shares of Pacific Continental common stock for each issued and outstanding share of Foundation Bancorp common stock. The preferred stock of Foundation Bancorp will become convertible into the right to receive the merger consideration with respect to 1,500,000 shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock, together with cumulative cash dividends payable to the holder of such preferred stock through March 25, 2020, as set forth in the charter of Foundation Bancorp. The merger agreement also provides that 79,000 shares of restricted stock of Foundation Bancorp granted pursuant to certain equity incentive plans will become fully vested as of the effective time of the merger and the holders of the restricted stock may elect to receive the merger consideration, as provided above.

While the amount of the cash consideration paid per share for which an election to receive cash is made will remain $12.50 per share (subject to potential adjustment as provided in the merger agreement), the market value of the stock consideration will fluctuate with the market price of Pacific Continental common stock. The market value of the shares of Pacific Continental common stock to be received as part of the merger consideration will fluctuate with the market price of Pacific Continental common stock, and will vary from the closing price of Pacific Continental common stock on the date Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp announced the merger, on the date that this proxy statement/prospectus is mailed to Foundation Bancorp shareholders, on the date of the special meeting, and on the date the merger is completed and thereafter.

Any change in the market price of Pacific Continental common stock prior to the completion of the merger will affect the market value of the stock consideration that Foundation Bancorp shareholders will receive upon completion of the merger, and there will be no adjustment to the merger consideration for changes in the market price of either shares of Pacific Continental common stock or shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock, except as described above. Stock price changes may result from a variety of factors that are beyond the control of Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp, including, but not limited to, general market and economic conditions, changes in the companies’ respective businesses, operations and prospects, and regulatory considerations. In connection with your vote on the merger, you should obtain current market quotations for shares of Pacific Continental common stock (NASDAQ trading symbol “PCBK”) and for shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock (OTCBB trading symbol “FDNB”).

The market price of Pacific Continental common stock after the merger may be affected by factors different from those affecting the shares of Foundation Bancorp or Pacific Continental currently.

Upon completion of the merger, holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock and Foundation Bancorp preferred stock may become holders of Pacific Continental common stock. Pacific Continental’s business differs in important respects from that of Foundation Bancorp, and, accordingly, the results of operations of the combined company and the market price of Pacific Continental’s common stock after the completion of the merger may be affected by factors different from those currently affecting the independent results of operations of each of Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp. For a discussion of the business of Pacific Continental

and of some important factors to consider in connection with that business, see the documents incorporated by reference in this proxy statement/prospectus and referred to under “Where You Can Find More Information”.

Regulatory approvals may not be received, may take longer than expected or may impose conditions that are not presently anticipated or that could have an adverse effect on the combined company following the merger.

Before the merger and the bank merger may be completed, Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp must obtain approvals from the FDIC, the Oregon Director and the Washington Director, and the approval (or waiver) of the Federal Reserve Board. Other approvals, waivers, non-objections or consents from regulators may also be required. In determining whether to grant these approvals, waivers, non-objections or consents the regulators consider a variety of factors, including the regulatory standing of each party and the factors described under “The Merger – Regulatory Approvals Required for the Merger”. An adverse development in either party’s regulatory standing or these factors could result in an inability to obtain approval or delay its receipt. These regulators may impose conditions on the completion of the merger or the bank merger or require changes to the terms of the merger or the bank merger. Such conditions or changes could have the effect of delaying or preventing completion of the merger or the bank merger or imposing additional costs on or limiting the revenues of the combined company following the merger and the bank merger, any of which might have an adverse effect on the combined company following the merger.

Combining the two companies may be more difficult, costly or time consuming than expected and the anticipated benefits and cost savings of the merger may not be realized.

Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp have operated and, until the completion of the merger, will continue to operate, independently. The success of the merger, including anticipated benefits and cost savings, will depend, in part, on Pacific Continental’s ability to successfully combine and integrate the businesses of Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp in a manner that permits growth opportunities and does not materially disrupt the existing customer relations or result in decreased revenues due to loss of customers. It is possible that the integration process could result in the loss of key employees, the disruption of either company’s ongoing businesses or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies that adversely affect the combined company’s ability to maintain relationships with clients, customers, depositors and employees or to achieve the anticipated benefits and cost savings of the merger. The loss of key employees could adversely affect Pacific Continental’s ability to successfully conduct its business, which could have an adverse effect on Pacific Continental’s financial results and the value of its common stock. If Pacific Continental experiences difficulties with the integration process, the anticipated benefits of the merger may not be realized fully or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected. As with any merger of financial institutions, there also may be business disruptions that cause Pacific Continental and/or Foundation Bancorp to lose customers or cause customers to remove their accounts from Pacific Continental and/or Foundation Bancorp and move their business to competing financial institutions. Integration efforts between the two companies will also divert management attention and resources. These integration matters could have an adverse effect on each of Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp during this transition period and for an undetermined period after completion of the merger on the combined company. In addition, the actual cost savings of the merger could be less than anticipated.

The opinion of Foundation Bancorp’s financial advisor delivered to Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors prior to execution of the merger agreement will not reflect any changes in circumstances that may have occurred since the date of the opinion.

The fairness opinion of Keefe, Bruyette & Woods was delivered to Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors on April 24, 2016. Changes in the operations and prospects of Pacific Continental or Foundation Bancorp, general market and economic conditions and other factors which may be beyond the control of Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp may have altered the value of Pacific Continental or Foundation Bancorp or the sale prices of shares of Pacific Continental common stock and Foundation Bancorp common stock as of the

 

18


Table of Contents

date of this proxy statement/prospectus, or may alter such values and sale prices by the time the merger is completed. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods’ opinion, dated April 24, 2016, does not and will not speak as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus or the time the merger is completed or any other date other than the date of the opinion. For a description of the opinion, see “The Merger – Opinion of Foundation Bancorp’s Financial Advisor”.

Certain of Foundation Bancorp’s directors and officers have interests in the merger that may differ from the interests of Foundation Bancorp’s shareholders.

Foundation Bancorp’s shareholders should be aware that some of Foundation Bancorp’s directors and officers have interests in the merger and have arrangements that are different from, or in addition to, those of Foundation Bancorp’s shareholders generally. These interests and arrangements may create potential conflicts of interest. Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors was aware of these interests and considered these interests, among other matters, when making its decision to approve the merger agreement, and in recommending that Foundation Bancorp’s shareholders vote in favor of approving the merger agreement.

These interests include the following:

 

    Prior to the closing of the merger, any holder of outstanding Foundation Bancorp restricted stock awarded under a Foundation Bancorp equity incentive plan, whether vested or unvested, will be entitled to receive the merger consideration with respect to such shares of restricted stock, and will be subject to the election and proration procedures described in this proxy statement/prospectus. Subject to such procedures, the holder thereof may elect to receive the per share stock consideration or the per share cash consideration, or a combination thereof, payable in the merger.

 

    One current director of Foundation Bancorp is a representatives of Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, the holder of 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock. In accordance with the merger agreement, the preferred stock of Foundation Bancorp will become convertible into the right to receive the merger consideration with respect to 1,500,000 shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock. In addition, Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, will receive cumulative cash dividends payable with respect to such preferred stock through March 25, 2020, as set forth in the charter of Foundation Bancorp.

 

    After the effective time of the merger, Pacific Continental will make the change in control payments provided for in the written employment agreements entered into between Foundation Bancorp and certain officers of Foundation Bancorp prior to the date of the merger agreement, regardless of whether such officers will continue as employees of Pacific Continental.

 

    The Foundation Bancorp compensation & governance committee has authorized the payment of transaction bonus payments to six officers in conjunction with the merger. A partial payment was made to five of the officers on December 21, 2015. The remaining payments to the five officers and the full payment to the sixth officer will be made upon a successful close of the merger in 2016. The committee authorized total payments to Duane Woods, Jocelyn Lane, Randy Cloes, Richard Deglman, Brett Ballman and Eileen Magnusson, in the following amounts: $135,000, $80,000, $80,000, $80,000, $80,000, and $50,000, respectively; with $505,000 payable to such officers in the aggregate. Pacific Continental has agreed to pay Duane Woods a supplemental transaction bonus in the amount of $135,000 after the closing of the merger.

 

    In accordance with the merger agreement, two representatives of Foundation Bancorp will join the boards of directors of Pacific Continental and Pacific Continental Bank following the merger.

 

    Under the merger agreement, Foundation Bancorp directors and officers are entitled to continued indemnification and to coverage under a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy for a period of six years after the merger.

 

19


Table of Contents
    As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, certain of the executive officers of Foundation Bancorp have accepted offers of employment with Pacific Continental. Following the merger, Jocelyn Lane, Executive Vice President and Market President, will be employed by Pacific Continental Bank in the position of Executive Vice President, Market President, Greater Seattle Market; Brett Ballman, Senior Vice President – Director of Operations, Risk and Regulatory Affairs, will be employed by Pacific Continental Bank as a senior vice president, Director of Internal Audit; and Eileen Magnusson, Senior Vice President and Director of Human Resources, will be employed by Pacific Continental Bank as a vice president, HR Business Partner.

For a more complete description of these interests, see “The Merger – Interests of Foundation Bancorp’s Directors and Officers in the Merger.”

Termination of the merger agreement could negatively impact Foundation Bancorp.

If the merger agreement is terminated, there may be various consequences. For example, the market price of Foundation Bancorp’s common stock could decline to the extent that the current market prices reflect a market assumption that the merger will be completed. If the merger agreement is terminated under certain circumstances, Foundation Bancorp may be required to pay to Pacific Continental a termination fee of $1.0 million or $2.0 million, depending upon the circumstances of termination.

The $1.0 million or $2.0 million, as applicable, termination fee and the restrictions on solicitation contained in the merger agreement may discourage others from trying to acquire Foundation Bancorp.

Until the completion of the merger, with some exceptions, Foundation Bancorp is prohibited from initiating, soliciting, or engaging in any negotiations concerning any inquiries or proposals that may lead to an acquisition proposal, such as a merger or other business combination transaction, with any person other than Pacific Continental. In addition, Foundation Bancorp has agreed to pay a $1.0 million or $2.0 million termination fee to Pacific Continental, depending upon the circumstances of the termination. In addition, in connection with the merger agreement, each of Thomas Ellison, who as of the record date had the right to vote approximately [*]% of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock, and Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, which as of the record date had the right to vote 100% of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock, agreed, subject to certain exceptions, to vote their respective shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock and Foundation Bancorp preferred stock in favor of the merger proposal. Each of the directors of Foundation Bancorp and Foundation Bank who own shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock and certain officers of Foundation Bancorp and Foundation Bank also individually entered into an agreement with Pacific Continental to vote their shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock in favor of the merger agreement and against any competing proposal, subject to certain exceptions. These shareholders in the aggregate held approximately [*]% of Foundation Bancorp’s outstanding common stock as of [*], 2016. For further information, see “The Merger Agreement – Voting Agreements” and “ – Voting and Non-Competition Agreements.” These provisions could discourage other companies from trying to acquire Foundation Bancorp even though those other companies might be willing to offer greater value to Foundation Bancorp’s shareholders than Pacific Continental has offered in the merger. The payment of the termination fee could also have an adverse effect on Foundation Bancorp’s financial condition. See “The Merger Agreement – Effect of Termination; Expenses; Termination Fees” on page 73.

Foundation Bancorp will be subject to business uncertainties and contractual restrictions on its operations while the merger is pending.

Foundation Bancorp will be subject to business uncertainties and contractual restrictions on its operations while the merger is pending. For instance, uncertainty about the effect of the merger on employees and customers may have an adverse effect on Foundation Bancorp and consequently on Pacific Continental. These uncertainties may impair Foundation Bancorp’s ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel until the merger is

 

20


Table of Contents

completed, and could cause customers and others that deal with Foundation Bancorp to seek to change existing business relationships with Foundation Bancorp. Retention of certain employees by Foundation Bancorp may be challenging while the merger is pending, as certain employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles with Foundation Bancorp. If key employees depart because of issues relating to the uncertainty and difficulty of integration or a desire not to remain with Pacific Continental or Foundation Bancorp, Foundation Bancorp’s business or Pacific Continental’s business following the merger could be harmed. In addition, subject to certain exceptions, Foundation Bancorp has agreed to operate its business in the ordinary course, and to comply with certain other operational restrictions, prior to closing. The merger agreement also restricts Foundation Bancorp from making certain acquisitions and taking other specified actions until the merger occurs without the consent of Pacific Continental. These restrictions may prevent Foundation Bancorp from pursuing attractive business opportunities that may arise prior to the completion of the merger. See “The Merger Agreement – Covenants and Agreements” for a description of the restrictive covenants applicable to Foundation Bancorp.

If the merger is not completed, Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp will have incurred substantial expenses without realizing the expected benefits of the merger.

Each of Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp has incurred and will incur substantial expenses in connection with the negotiation and completion of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, as well as the costs and expenses of filing, printing and mailing this proxy statement/prospectus and all filing and other fees paid to the SEC in connection with the merger. If the merger is not completed, Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp would have to recognize these expenses without realizing the expected benefits of the merger.

The shares of Pacific Continental common stock to be received by Foundation Bancorp shareholders as a result of the merger will have different rights from the shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock.

Upon completion of the merger, Foundation Bancorp shareholders will become Pacific Continental shareholders and their rights as shareholders will be governed by the Pacific Continental articles of incorporation and bylaws. In addition, Foundation Bancorp is incorporated under the laws of the State of Washington, and Pacific Continental is incorporated under the laws of the State of Oregon. The rights associated with Foundation Bancorp common stock are different from the rights associated with Pacific Continental common stock. Please see “Comparison of Shareholder Rights” beginning on page 82 for a discussion of the different rights associated with Pacific Continental common stock.

Shareholders may receive a form of consideration different from what they elect.

While each Foundation Bancorp shareholder may elect to receive cash or Pacific Continental common stock in the merger, the proration and allocation procedures set forth in the merger agreement are intended to ensure that the aggregate cash consideration payable to the holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock will be $19,334,017.50, subject to potential adjustment as provided for in the merger agreement. If Foundation Bancorp shareholders elect more cash or stock consideration than is available under the merger agreement, your elections may be prorated to ensure that the aggregate cash consideration payable to the holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock will be $19,334,017.50, subject to potential adjustment as provided for in the merger agreement. Therefore, your ability to receive cash or shares of Pacific Continental stock in exchange for your shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock or Foundation Bancorp preferred stock in accordance with your election may depend upon the election of other Foundation Bancorp shareholders.

Anti-takeover provisions in Pacific Continental’s amended and restated articles of incorporation and bylaws and Oregon law could impede a takeover of Pacific Continental.

Pacific Continental’s second amended and restated articles of incorporation contain provisions that could make it more difficult for a third-party to acquire Pacific Continental (even if doing so would be beneficial to

 

21


Table of Contents

Pacific Continental’s shareholders) and for holders of Pacific Continental’s common stock to receive any related takeover premium for their common stock. Pacific Continental is also subject to certain provisions of Oregon law that could delay, deter or prevent a change in control of Pacific Continental. These provisions could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of Pacific Continental common stock. Please see “Comparison of Shareholder Rights” beginning on page 82 for a discussion of these provisions.

Sales of substantial amounts of Pacific Continental’s common stock in the open market by former Foundation Bancorp shareholders could depress Pacific Continental’s stock price.

Shares of Pacific Continental common stock that are issued to shareholders of Foundation Bancorp in the merger will be freely tradable without restrictions or further registration under the Securities Act of 1933. Based on the shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock outstanding as of the record date (including the shares of Foundation Bancorp restricted stock and the Foundation Bancorp preferred stock on an as-converted basis), the maximum number of shares of common stock Pacific Continental will issue upon completion of the merger is approximately [*] shares. If the merger is completed and if former shareholders of Foundation Bancorp sell substantial amounts of Pacific Continental common stock in the public market following completion of the merger, the market price of Pacific Continental common stock may decrease.

Holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock and Foundation Bancorp preferred stock will have a reduced ownership and voting interest in the combined company after the merger and will exercise less influence over management of the combined company.

Holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock currently have the right to vote in the election of the board of directors and on other matters affecting Foundation Bancorp. Holders of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock currently have the right to vote together with the holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock on all matters upon which the holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock are entitled to vote, provided than no holder of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock may vote in excess of 9.9% of the votes entitled to be cast at any meeting of shareholders. Upon the completion of the merger, each Foundation Bancorp shareholder who receives shares of Pacific Continental common stock will become a shareholder of Pacific Continental with a percentage ownership of Pacific Continental that is smaller than such shareholder’s percentage ownership of Foundation Bancorp. It is currently expected that the former shareholders of Foundation Bancorp as a group will receive shares in the merger constituting approximately [*]% of the outstanding shares of Pacific Continental common stock immediately after the merger. As a result, current shareholders of Pacific Continental as a group will own approximately [*]% of the outstanding shares of Pacific Continental common stock immediately after the merger. Because of this, Foundation Bancorp shareholders may have less influence on the management and policies of Pacific Continental than they now have on the management and policies of Foundation Bancorp.

Some of the statements contained or incorporated by reference in this proxy statement/prospectus are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements regarding Pacific Continental’s or Foundation Bancorp’s expectations or predictions of future financial or business performance or conditions. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “target,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continue,” “positions,” “prospects” or “potential,” by future conditional verbs such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could” or “may,” or by variations of such words or by similar expressions.

These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties which change over time. In addition to factors discussed under “Risk Factors” or previously disclosed in Pacific Continental’s reports filed with the SEC that are incorporated into this proxy statement/prospectus by reference, the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements: ability to obtain regulatory approvals and meet other closing conditions to the merger, including approval by Foundation Bancorp shareholders, on the expected terms and schedule; delay in closing the merger; difficulties and delays in integrating the Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp businesses or fully realizing cost savings and other benefits; business disruption following the proposed transaction; diversion of management time on issues relating to the merger and the bank merger; changes in asset quality and credit risk; the inability to sustain revenue and earnings growth; changes in interest rates and capital markets; inflation; customer borrowing, repayment, investment and deposit practices; the introduction, withdrawal, success and timing of business initiatives; competitive conditions; economic conditions and changes in economic conditions in general and in Oregon or Washington in particular; changes in Pacific Continental’s stock price before closing, including as a result of the financial performance of Foundation Bancorp prior to closing; the reaction to the transaction of the companies’ customers, employees and counterparties; the impact, extent and timing of technological changes, capital management activities, actions of the Federal Reserve Board, the FDIC, the Oregon Director, or the Washington Director, or other legislative and regulatory actions and reforms; and failure to consummate or delay in consummating the merger for any other reason.

For any forward-looking statements made in this proxy statement/prospectus or in any documents incorporated by reference into this proxy statement/prospectus, Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these statements, which speak only as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus or the date of the applicable document incorporated by reference in this proxy statement/prospectus. Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp do not undertake to update forward-looking statements to reflect facts, circumstances, assumptions or events that occur after the date the forward-looking statements are made. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning the merger or other matters addressed in this proxy statement/prospectus and attributable to Pacific Continental, Foundation Bancorp or any person acting on their behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this proxy statement/prospectus.

COMPARATIVE PER SHARE DATA OF PACIFIC CONTINENTAL CORPORATION (UNAUDITED)

The table below sets forth the book value per common share, cash dividends per common share, and basic and diluted earnings per common share data for each of Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp on a historical basis, for Pacific Continental on a pro forma combined basis and on a pro forma combined basis for Foundation Bancorp equivalent shares. The Per Equivalent Foundation Bancorp Share data shows the effect of the merger from the perspective of an owner of Foundation Bancorp common stock (and includes the shares of Foundation Bancorp restricted stock and the Foundation Bancorp preferred stock on an as-converted basis). The pro forma combined and pro forma per equivalent shares information gives effect to the merger as if the merger had been effective on the dates presented in the case of the book value per common share data, and as if the merger had been effective as of January 1 of the applicable pro forma period, in the case of the cash dividends paid per common share and earnings per common share data. The pro forma data combines the historical results of Foundation Bancorp into Pacific Continental’s consolidated statement of income and, while certain adjustments were made for the estimated impact of certain fair value adjustments and other merger-related activity, they are not indicative of what could have occurred had the merger taken place on January 1 of the applicable pro forma period.

The pro forma financial information in the table below is provided for illustrative purposes and does not reflect the impact of factors that may result as a consequence of the merger or consider any potential impacts of current market conditions or the merger on revenues, expense efficiencies or asset dispositions, among other factors, or the impact of possible business model changes. As a result, unaudited pro forma data is presented for illustrative purposes only and does not represent an attempt to predict or suggest future results. Upon completion of the merger, the operating results of Foundation Bancorp will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements of Pacific Continental on a prospective basis.

This section contains information for Foundation Bancorp shareholders about the special meeting that Foundation Bancorp has called to allow its shareholders to consider and vote on the merger agreement and other related matters. Foundation Bancorp is mailing this proxy statement/prospectus to Foundation Bancorp shareholders, on or about July     , 2016. This proxy statement/prospectus is accompanied by a notice of the special meeting of Foundation Bancorp shareholders and a form of proxy card that Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors is soliciting for use at the special meeting and at any adjournments or postponements of the special meeting.

Date, Time and Place of Meeting

The special meeting of Foundation Bancorp shareholders will be held at Foundation Bank, 1110 112th Avenue NE, Bellevue, Washington 98004, West Building Conference Room, 1st Floor, at 3:30 p.m., local time, on                 ,                 , 2016.

Matters to Be Considered

At the special meeting, Foundation Bancorp shareholders will be asked to consider and vote upon the following matters:

 

    a proposal to approve the merger agreement;

 

    a proposal to adjourn or postpone the Foundation Bancorp special meeting, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies in favor of the merger proposal.

Recommendation of Foundation Bancorp’s Board of Directors

Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors has determined that the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, are in the best interests of Foundation Bancorp and its shareholders, has unanimously approved and adopted the merger agreement, and unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the merger proposal, and “FOR” the adjournment proposal, if necessary or appropriate. See “The Merger – Foundation Bancorp’s Reasons for the Merger; Recommendation of Foundation Bancorp’s Board of Directors” for a more detailed discussion of Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors’ recommendation.

Record Date and Quorum

The Foundation Bancorp board of directors has fixed the close of business on                 , 2016, as the record date for determining the holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock issued and the holders of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the special meeting.

As of the Foundation Bancorp record date, there were                  shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Foundation Bancorp special meeting held by approximately          holders of record, and 15,000 shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Foundation Bancorp special meeting held by one holder of record. Each share of Foundation Bancorp common stock or Foundation Bancorp preferred stock entitles the holder to one vote at the special meeting on each proposal to be considered at the Foundation Bancorp special meeting.

The representation (in person or by proxy) of at least a majority of the shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock entitled to vote at the special meeting and at least a majority of the shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock entitled to vote at the special meeting will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. The absence of a quorum for one class of stock of Foundation Bancorp will not affect the presence of a quorum for the other class of stock of Foundation Bancorp. All shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock or

Approval of the merger proposal requires the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock and the affirmative vote of holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock. Approval of the adjournment proposal requires the votes cast in favor of the proposal by each class of Foundation Bancorp stock that exceed the votes cast in opposition by each such class of Foundation Bancorp stock. If you mark “ABSTAIN” on your proxy card, fail to either submit a proxy card or vote through the internet or in person at the special meeting or fail to instruct your bank or broker how to vote with respect to the merger proposal, it will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the merger proposal. If you mark “ABSTAIN” on your proxy card, or fail to instruct your bank or broker how to vote, or if you are not a “street name” holder and fail to either submit a proxy card entirely or vote through the internet or in person at the special meeting, it will have no effect on the adjournment proposal.

In connection with the merger agreement, each of Thomas Ellison, who as of the record date had the right to vote approximately [*]% of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock, and Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, which as of the record date had the right to vote 100% of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock, agreed, subject to certain exceptions, to vote their respective shares of Foundation Bancorp stock in favor of the merger proposal. For further information, see “The Merger – Voting Agreements”. In addition, in connection with the merger agreement, each of the directors who own shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock and certain of the officers of Foundation Bancorp and Foundation Bank individually entered into an agreement with Pacific Continental to vote their shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock in favor of the merger agreement and against any competing proposal, subject to certain exceptions. These shareholders in the aggregate held approximately [*]% of Foundation Bancorp’s outstanding common stock as of [*], 2016. For further information, see “The Merger Agreement – Voting and Non-Competition Agreements”.

Voting on Proxies; Incomplete Proxies

A Foundation Bancorp shareholder may vote by proxy or in person by attending the Foundation Bancorp special meeting. If you hold your shares of Foundation Bancorp stock in your name as a shareholder of record, to submit a proxy, you, as a Foundation Bancorp shareholder, may use one of the following methods:

 

    Through the internet: by visiting the website indicated on the proxy card and following the instructions; or

 

    By mail: by completing and returning the proxy card in the enclosed envelope.

Foundation Bancorp requests that Foundation Bancorp shareholders vote through the internet or by completing and signing the accompanying proxy card and returning it to Foundation Bancorp as soon as possible in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. When the accompanying proxy card is returned properly executed, the shares of Foundation Bancorp stock represented by it will be voted at the special meeting in accordance with the instructions contained on the proxy card. If any proxy card is returned without indication as to how to vote, the shares of Foundation Bancorp stock represented by the proxy card will be voted “FOR” the merger proposal and “FOR” the adjournment proposal, if necessary or advisable.

If a Foundation Bancorp shareholder’s shares are held in “street name” by a broker, bank or other nominee, the shareholder should check the voting form used by that firm to determine how to vote, including whether it may vote by internet.

Table of Contents

Every Foundation Bancorp shareholder’s vote is important. Accordingly, each Foundation Bancorp shareholder should sign, date and return the enclosed proxy card, or vote through the internet, whether or not the Foundation Bancorp shareholder plans to attend the special meeting in person. Sending in your proxy card or voting through the internet will not prevent you from voting your shares personally at the meeting, since you may revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted.

Shares Held in “Street Name”; Broker Non-Votes

Under stock exchange rules, banks, brokers and other nominees who hold shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock in “street name” for a beneficial owner of those shares typically have the authority to vote in their discretion on “routine” proposals when they have not received instructions from beneficial owners. However, banks, brokers and other nominees are not allowed to exercise their voting discretion with respect to the approval of matters determined to be “non-routine,” without specific instructions from the beneficial owner. Foundation Bancorp expects that all proposals to be voted on at the Foundation Bancorp special meeting will be “non-routine” matters. Broker non-votes are shares held by a broker, bank or other nominee that are represented at the special meeting, but with respect to which the broker or nominee is not instructed by the beneficial owner of such shares to vote on the particular proposal and the broker does not have discretionary voting power on such proposal. If your broker, bank or other nominee holds your shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock in “street name,” your broker, bank or other nominee will vote your shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock only if you provide instructions on how to vote by complying with the voter instruction form sent to you by your broker, bank or other nominee with this proxy statement/prospectus.

Revocability of Proxies and Changes to a Foundation Bancorp Shareholder’s Vote

If you hold stock in your name as a shareholder of record, you may revoke any proxy at any time before it is voted by (1) signing and returning a proxy card with a later date, (2) delivering a written revocation letter to Foundation Bancorp’s corporate secretary, (3) attending the special meeting in person, notifying the corporate secretary and voting by ballot at the special meeting, or (4) voting through the internet.

Any shareholder entitled to vote in person at the special meeting may vote in person regardless of whether a proxy has been previously given, but the mere presence (without notifying Foundation Bancorp’s corporate secretary) of a shareholder at the special meeting will not constitute revocation of a previously given proxy.

Written notices of revocation and other communications about revoking your proxy card should be addressed to:

Foundation Bancorp, Inc.

1110 112th Avenue NE, Suite 200

Bellevue, WA 98004

Attention: Corporate Secretary

If your shares are held in “street name” by a bank or broker, you should follow the instructions of your bank or broker regarding the revocation of proxies.

Solicitation of Proxies

Foundation Bancorp is soliciting your proxy in conjunction with the merger. Foundation Bancorp will bear the entire cost of soliciting proxies from you. In addition to solicitation of proxies by mail, Foundation Bancorp will request that banks, brokers and other record holders send proxies and proxy material to the beneficial owners of Foundation Bancorp common stock and secure their voting instructions. Foundation Bancorp will reimburse the record holders for their reasonable expenses in taking those actions. If necessary, Foundation Bancorp may

use its directors and several of its regular employees, who will not be specially compensated, to solicit proxies from the Foundation Bancorp shareholders, either personally or by telephone, facsimile, letter or electronic means. In addition, Pacific Continental intends to engage Georgeson, Inc., to assist in the solicitation of proxies and to act as information agent.

Attending the Meeting

Subject to space availability, all Foundation Bancorp shareholders as of the record date, or their duly appointed proxies, may attend the Foundation Bancorp special meeting. Since seating is limited, admission to the Foundation Bancorp special meeting will be on a first-come, first-served basis. Registration and seating will begin at 3:00 p.m., local time.

If you hold your shares of Foundation Bancorp stock in your name as a shareholder of record and you attend the Foundation Bancorp special meeting, you may submit your vote in person. Any votes that you previously submitted by proxy or through the internet will be superseded by any vote that you cast at the Foundation Bancorp special meeting.

Adjournment and Postponement

If a quorum is not obtained at the special meeting, or if fewer shares of Foundation Bancorp’s common stock or Foundation Bancorp’s preferred stock are voted in favor of the proposal for approval of the merger agreement than the number required for approval, it is expected that the special meeting will be adjourned or postponed to allow additional time for soliciting additional proxies. In that event, proxies will be voted to approve an adjournment or postponement, except for proxies as to which instructions have been given to vote against the adjournment proposal.

Assistance

If you need assistance in completing your proxy card, have questions regarding the special meeting, or voting by mail or through the internet, or would like additional copies of this proxy statement/prospectus, please contact Foundation Bancorp’s Investor Relations Contact, Randy Cloes, Chief Financial Officer, at (425) 691-5000.

THE MERGER

The following discussion contains certain information about the merger (as defined below). The discussion is subject, and qualified in its entirety by reference, to the merger agreement attached as Annex A to this proxy statement/prospectus and incorporated herein by reference. This summary may not contain all of the information about the merger that is important to you and we encourage you to read the merger agreement and this proxy statement/prospectus in their entirety. Additional information about the merger, Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp may be found as described in the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information” and “Information about Foundation Bancorp, Inc.”.

Terms of the Merger

The boards of directors of each of Pacific Continental Corporation, Pacific Continental Bank, Foundation Bancorp and Foundation Bank have approved and adopted the merger agreement. Pursuant to the merger agreement, Foundation Bancorp will merge with and into Pacific Continental, with Pacific Continental as the surviving corporation (the “merger”) upon the terms and subject to the conditions in the merger agreement. Immediately following the merger, Foundation Bancorp’s wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Foundation Bank, will merge with and into Pacific Continental’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Pacific Continental Bank (the “bank merger” and together with the merger, the “mergers”), with Pacific Continental Bank as the resulting bank.

Pursuant to the merger agreement, if the merger is completed, each holder of Foundation Bancorp common stock (other than those exercising dissenters’ rights) may elect to receive “merger consideration” consisting of either (1) cash in an amount equal to $12.50 per share or (2) 0.7911 shares of Pacific Continental common stock for each issued and outstanding share of Foundation Bancorp common stock. The preferred stock of Foundation Bancorp will become convertible into the right to receive the merger consideration with respect to 1,500,000 shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock, together with cumulative cash dividends payable to the holder of such preferred stock through March 25, 2020, as set forth in the charter of Foundation Bancorp. The merger agreement also provides that 79,000 shares of restricted stock of Foundation Bancorp granted pursuant to certain equity incentive plans will become fully vested as of the effective time of the merger and the holders of the restricted stock may elect to receive the merger consideration, as provided above. Pacific Continental will not issue any fractional shares of Pacific Continental common stock in the merger. Foundation Bancorp shareholders who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share of Pacific Continental common stock upon the completion of the merger will instead receive an amount in cash (without interest) determined by multiplying the fractional share interest to which such shareholder would otherwise be entitled by the per share cash consideration.

Each Foundation Bancorp shareholder will have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received for your shares, subject to proration and allocation procedures set forth in the merger agreement, which are intended to ensure that the aggregate cash consideration payable to the holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock will be $19,334,017.50, subject to potential adjustment as provided for in the merger agreement. See “The Merger Agreement – Elections; Allocation”. To the extent that Foundation Bancorp’s transaction expenses exceed $1,200,000 on an after-tax basis (subject, for such purpose, to certain exclusions), any excess shall reduce the per share cash consideration for the transaction by the quotient of such excess divided by the total number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Foundation Bancorp (including that number of shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock into which the shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock shall be convertible). See “The Merger Agreement – Effect of Termination; Expenses; Termination Fees” for additional information regarding the potential adjustment to the per share cash consideration.

The shareholders of Foundation Bancorp are being asked to approve the merger agreement. More information regarding the merger agreement and the conditions for completing the mergers may be found in the section of this proxy statement/prospectus entitled “The Merger Agreement” beginning on page 63.

Background of the Merger

From time to time, the board of directors of Foundation Bancorp assesses the economic, regulatory and competitive conditions in which Foundation Bancorp operates as well as its long-term business strategy and objectives. During recent years, Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors (the “Foundation Board”) has reviewed and assessed strategic opportunities and challenges and has considered various strategic options potentially available to Foundation Bancorp, all with the goal of enhancing Foundation Bancorp’s strategic capabilities and increasing value for Foundation Bancorp’s shareholders.

During the past two years, the Foundation Board has held strategic planning sessions during which representatives of Keefe, Bruyette & Woods have provided the Foundation Board with an overview of the banking environment, updated the Foundation Board on the state of the bank equity market and participated in discussions with the Foundation Board regarding strategic transactions. In October 2014, in light of the Foundation Board’s perception of an increasingly burdensome regulatory climate for community banking institutions and certain challenges it was facing with respect to maintaining adequate capital ratios, the Foundation Board requested that Keefe, Bruyette & Woods assist the Foundation Board with identifying potential strategic transactions intended to boost Foundation Bancorp’s capital ratios without diluting shareholders’ interests.

The Foundation Board discussed with Keefe, Bruyette & Woods several strategic options. The Foundation Board elected to move forward with a capital raise and engaged Keefe, Bruyette & Woods in December 2014. At Foundation Bancorp’s direction, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods approached Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, and another potential investor regarding a private placement investment in Foundation Bancorp in November and December of 2014.

In December 2014, following additional analysis and discussions with Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, and the other potential investor, Foundation Bancorp elected to proceed with discussions with Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, and the parties negotiated a definitive agreement for the sale of $15 million of Foundation Bancorp convertible preferred stock to Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP. The definitive agreement negotiated between the parties provided that the shares of preferred stock would be convertible into shares of Foundation Bancorp’s common stock at a price of $10.00 per share, subject to certain agreed upon adjustments. The transaction closed on March 27, 2015.

Pursuant to the Investment Agreement entered into between Foundation Bancorp and Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, Tony Scavuzzo, as representative of Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, was appointed to the Foundation Board on June 19, 2015.

On October 16, 2015, Diane Dewbrey resigned from her position as President and Chief Executive Officer of Foundation Bancorp, Inc. Duane Woods, Vice Chairman of Foundation Bancorp, was appointed by the Foundation Board as the Interim Chief Executive Officer of Foundation Bancorp at a meeting of the Foundation Board on October 28, 2015. At that same meeting, representatives of Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, presented an analysis to the Foundation Board and advised on the merits of various strategic options, including capital raisings and strategic mergers.

In early November 2015, a director of Foundation Bancorp reached out to a certain financial institution headquartered in the Pacific-Northwest (“Party A”) regarding a potential strategic combination of the two institutions. On November 13, 2015, Mr. Woods and Lou Mills, Chairman of the Foundation Board, met with the Chairman and the President and Chief Executive Officer of Party A to discuss the potential terms of a transaction between Foundation Bancorp and Party A. In order to facilitate further transaction discussions, on November 19, 2015, Foundation Bancorp and Foundation Bank entered into a Mutual Confidentiality Agreement with Party A and its wholly-owned subsidiary.

On November 29, 2015, the Foundation Board held a telephonic meeting, also attended by representatives of Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, to discuss the status of Foundation Bancorp’s discussions with Party A and potential strategic alternatives for Foundation Bancorp. On December 1, 2015, Mr. Woods received a non-binding letter of intent from the President and Chief Executive Offer of Party A proposing a strategic merger whereby Foundation Bancorp’s shareholders would exchange 100% of their outstanding shares of common stock, preferred stock, and share equivalents for shares of Party A’s common stock at a proposed value of $12.10 per Foundation Bancorp share.

On December 2, 2015, pursuant to an action by unanimous written consent, the Foundation Board established a special committee (the “Special Committee”) to discuss, review, analyze, evaluate and negotiate possible strategic options with respect to Foundation Bancorp and to make reports and recommendations to the Foundation Board with respect thereto. The board appointed Louis Mills, Jamie Colbourne, Tony Scavuzzo and Mr. Woods to the Special Committee.

The Special Committee held its first meeting on December 2, 2015, to discuss the non-binding letter of intent received from Party A. The Special Committee discussed the terms of the non-binding letter of intent, and noted that the primary issue with respect to the non-binding letter of intent was the proposed value of $12.10 per Foundation Bancorp share. The Special Committee also discussed the resulting exchange ratio and the critical importance of integration issues to ensure a successful transaction for the benefit of Foundation Bancorp and its shareholders.

During the meeting, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods discussed with the Special Committee the bank mergers and acquisitions environment, including recent bank acquisition transactions in the Pacific Northwest region. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods also discussed with the Special Committee three other financial institutions that it was believed might have interest in exploring a potential strategic transaction with Foundation Bancorp if the Board were to decide to explore other alternatives. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods explained that, considering the relative size and strength of the three institutions to Foundation Bancorp, a merger between Foundation Bancorp and any of the alternative companies would likely be in effect an acquisition rather than a “strategic merger” of similarly-sized entities. The Special Committee determined that the potential long-term benefits of a “strategic merger” with a similarly-sized entity like Party A in a structure and pricing range along the lines then being discussed with Party A could outweigh the potential benefits of alternative options. The board opted to continue discussions and proceed with further due diligence with Party A.

At the December 2, 2015, meeting, the Special Committee also approved the engagement of Keefe, Bruyette & Woods to provide financial advisory and investment banking services and Sidley Austin LLP (“Sidley Austin”) to provide legal counsel to Foundation Bancorp in connection with the possible sale of Foundation Bancorp to Party A or another corporation or business entity.

After the meeting of the Special Committee, Mr. Woods and Mr. Mills met with representatives of Party A to negotiate the terms of the non-binding letter of intent. The Foundation Bancorp representatives requested several changes to Party A’s non-binding letter of intent that were beneficial to Foundation Bancorp and had been discussed by the Special Committee. On December 4, 2015, Party A submitted a revised, non-binding indication of interest to Mr. Woods which indicated a price of $12.20 per share of Foundation Bancorp common stock, of which 100% of the consideration was to be in Party A common stock and other more favorable terms for Foundation Bancorp and a sixty (60) day exclusivity period. Mr. Woods promptly forwarded the indication to Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Sidley Austin and the other members of the Special Committee. The Special Committee discussed the revisions during a telephonic meeting later that day.

After extensive discussions, the Special Committee unanimously determined it would be fair, advisable, and in the best interests of the shareholders to enter into the non-binding letter of intent with Party A and proceed with discussions, diligence, evaluations, and negotiations with respect to the proposed strategic transaction. The

Table of Contents

Special Committee unanimously determined to present the non-binding letter of intent to the board of directors of Foundation Bancorp and to recommend that it be authorized, approved and adopted by the board of directors.

Following receipt of the recommendation of the Special Committee and review of the non-binding letter of intent, the Foundation Board unanimously determined by a written consent on December 4, 2015, that it was fair, advisable, and in the best interests of Foundation Bancorp and its shareholders to enter into the non-binding letter of intent and to proceed with discussions, negotiations, and diligence regarding the proposed merger. During the next several weeks, Foundation Bancorp and Party A exchanged detailed due diligence requests and engaged in a thorough due diligence review that continued throughout the duration of the negotiations.

On December 18, 2015, the compensation & governance committee of the Foundation Board approved the payment of transaction bonuses to Mr. Woods and to five other officers of Foundation Bancorp. The committee authorized total payments to Duane Woods, Jocelyn Lane, Randy Cloes, Richard Deglman, Brett Ballman and Eileen Magnusson, in the following amounts: $135,000, $80,000, $80,000, $80,000, $80,000 and $50,000, respectively; with $505,000 payable to such officers in the aggregate. A partial payment was made to five of the officers on December 21, 2015, with the remaining payments to the five officers and the full payment to the sixth officer to be made upon a successful close of the merger in 2016.

On December 29, 2015, Sidley Austin delivered to counsel for Party A, a draft of the definitive merger agreement. Between December 29, 2015 and January 28, 2016, the parties and their representatives exchanged various drafts of the transaction documents and held a number of telephonic meetings to discuss the terms of the proposed transaction and to negotiate acceptable final transaction documents, including, without limitation, provisions relating to the scope of representations, warranties and covenants, the amount of termination fees and the circumstances under which they would be paid and the terms under which Foundation Bancorp would be permitted to respond to certain unsolicited alternative proposals.

From the end of December 2015 through January 28, 2016, Foundation Bancorp and Party A engaged in a mutual due diligence process. In furtherance of the diligence efforts, each party conducted a review of the other’s loan and investment portfolios, reviewed the other’s funding and liquidity policies and deposit accounts, and conducted interviews with members of the other party’s executive management team. Throughout this time, Foundation Bancorp’s executive management team and members of the Special Committee convened for weekly meetings regarding the potential transaction and the status of the diligence process. Representatives from Keefe, Bruyette & Woods and Sidley Austin attended many of these meetings via teleconference. Mr. Woods also regularly communicated with the Foundation Board and provided updates regarding the discussions and negotiations with Party A.

Due to certain strategic reasons, on January 21, 2016, a representative from Party A indicated to Mr. Woods that it would be reducing the proposed purchase price to $11.96 per share, 80% of which would be in stock and 20% of which would be in cash. Mr. Woods communicated Party A’s revised indication to the Special Committee and the Foundation Board.

On January 27, 2016, the Foundation Board met to discuss the transaction. Representatives from Keefe, Bruyette & Woods and Sidley Austin also participated. The Foundation Board discussed the updated indication that that Party A had provided and which had been distributed to the board prior to the meeting. Following lengthy discussions and analysis of the transaction, the directors determined to move forward with a counter-proposal to Party A for a purchase price equal to $12.00 per share.

Following the board meeting, Mr. Woods sent Party A’s Chairman of the Board and President and Chief Executive Officer the counter-proposal which had been approved by the Foundation Board. Mr. Woods indicated that Foundation Bancorp was willing to accept merger consideration valued at $12.00 per share of Foundation Bancorp common stock. Mr. Woods reiterated that in the non-binding letter of intent and throughout the negotiations between the parties, the merger had been contemplated as a strategic merger, not an acquisition.

Table of Contents

Mr. Woods expressed concerns that Party A’s most recent proposal was unacceptable and a reversal from the original agreement between in parties and warned that Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors would, in accordance with its fiduciary duties, need to seek other strategic alternatives if Party A continued to view the transaction as an acquisition rather than a collaborative integration.

On January 28, 2016, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Party A verbally informed Mr. Woods that Party A would be prepared to offer a significantly reduced purchase price of approximately $11.00 per share with no additional specified due diligence or strategic concerns. Mr. Woods expressed Foundation Bancorp’s disappointment at the proposal and indicated that further negotiations in that range would not be productive and that further meetings would not be necessary given the reduced purchase price and other strategic reasons. The President and Chief Executive Officer of Party A indicated that Party A would be willing to release Foundation Bancorp from exclusivity, which it did on that same day.

Following the termination of negotiations with Party A, on January 28, 2016, the Special Committee instructed Keefe, Bruyette & Woods to assist Foundation Bancorp with preparing a Confidential Information Memorandum regarding the potential sale of Foundation Bancorp and identifying financial institutions that may be interested in a possible transaction. The Special Committee intended to generate interest from strategically identified institutions and to engage such institutions in a competitive bidding process. The following week, at Foundation Bancorp’s direction, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods initiated discussions with six (6) financial institutions, including Pacific Continental. Each of the institutions executed a mutual nondisclosure agreement with Foundation Bancorp during the next several weeks and was provided a copy of the Confidential Information Memorandum as well as access to a virtual data room to review and analyze data on Foundation Bancorp.

Following the execution of the mutual nondisclosure agreements, Pacific Continental and the other five financial institutions contacted by Keefe, Bruyette & Woods began performance of preliminary due diligence on Foundation Bancorp. On February 9, 2016, Mr. Woods, Mr. Scavuzzo, Foundation Bancorp director H. Martin Smith III, and Thomas Ellison, Foundation Bancorp’s founder and largest individual shareholder, met with Roger Busse, President and Chief Executive Officer of Pacific Continental, and Casey Hogan, Chief Operating Officer of Pacific Continental, to discuss opportunities for synergies, further due diligence by Pacific Continental and next steps in connection with the possible transaction. During this time frame, representatives of Foundation Bancorp participated in informational meetings with two other contacted institutions referred to as “Party B” and “Party C” which were both bank holding companies headquartered in the Pacific Northwest.

On February 23, 2016, a meeting was held between representatives of Foundation Bancorp and the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Party B. In attendance on behalf of Foundation were Mr. Woods, Mr. Mills, Mr. Smith, Mr. Ellison and Foundation Bancorp director Ronald Cohn. Party B made a presentation about its business and the strategic benefits they believed would accrue from a merger with Foundation Bancorp. On March 1, 2016, a meeting was held between the executive management teams of Foundation Bank and Party C. Party C provided a presentation on its growth and strategic plan and why a merger with Foundation would be a good fit. Party C asked several questions regarding specific credits, personnel and deposits of Foundation Bank, which were addressed by Foundation Bank’s executive team. Also on March 1, 2016, a telephone conference was held between the executive management teams of Foundation Bank and Pacific Continental to discuss diligence, Foundation Bank’s loan portfolio, systems, personnel and possible opportunities and efficiencies.

On March 4, 2016, Foundation Bancorp received an initial indication of interest from Party B, which indicated a price of $12.00 per share for Foundation Bancorp common stock, of which 100% of the consideration was to be in Party B stock. Also on March 4, 2016, Party C submitted an indication of interest to Mr. Woods and Keefe, Bruyette & Woods indicating a price of $10.00 per share, paid in Party C common stock.

On March 16, 2016 and March 17, 2016, informational meetings were held between members of Party B’s executive management and members of Foundation Bank’s executive management in connection with Party B’s

preliminary due diligence investigation. In addition to addressing diligence matters, the parties discussed opportunities for synergies and the potential structure of a strategic transaction between Foundation Bancorp and Party B. On March 17, 2016, a meeting was held between members of Pacific Continental’s executive management and members of Foundation Bank’s executive management to discuss credit due diligence findings. Pacific Continental asked several questions regarding specific credits, Foundation Bank’s niche focus, growth strategy and litigation.

On March 21, 2016, Pacific Continental made a second offer to acquire Foundation Bancorp, submitting a term sheet outlining proposed consideration with a value of $12.25 per share of Foundation Bancorp common stock, of which 50% of the consideration was proposed to be in Pacific Continental common stock and 50% in cash. On March 23, 2015, Pacific Continental delivered a non-binding indication of interest to Foundation Bancorp, which proposed a price of $12.50 per share of Foundation Bancorp common stock with a mix of 30% cash and 70% Pacific Continental common stock. The three other financial institutions involved in the process declined to submit an indication of interest regarding a potential transaction with Foundation Bancorp.

At a meeting on March 23, 2016, the board of directors of Foundation Bancorp discussed the offers that had been received from Pacific Continental, Party B and Party C. The Board resolved to continue negotiations and discussions with Party B and Pacific Continental with respect to their offers and to delegate to the Special Committee all the Board’s power and authority to discuss, review, analyze, evaluate and negotiate the offers (and any amendments thereto).

On March 25, 2016, unsolicited, Party C, submitted a revised indication of interest for $11.50 per share to Mr. Woods and Keefe, Bruyette & Woods. The Special Committee reviewed the proposal but opted to proceed with their current discussions with Pacific Continental and Party B.

On April 1, 2016, representatives from D.A. Davidson, on behalf of Pacific Continental, forwarded an initial draft of the Agreement and Plan of Merger to Keefe, Bruyette & Woods. On that same day, Party B submitted an updated indication of interest to Foundation Bancorp, proposing an offer of $12.42 per share with 100% of the consideration in Party B stock. On April 4, 2015, Pacific Continental submitted a revised non-binding indication of interest reaffirming a $12.50 purchase price.

The Special Committee held a meeting on April 4, 2016, to discuss the negotiations with Pacific Continental and Party B, Party B’s most recent indication, and the draft definitive agreement from PCC. Representatives of Keefe, Bruyette & Woods and Sidley Austin also participated. The board of directors discussed the advantages and disadvantages of negotiating a sale transaction with Pacific Continental as opposed to Party B or other potential purchasers. After discussion with its advisors, the committee determined that it would be in best interests of Foundation Bancorp and its shareholders to enter into a sale agreement with Pacific Continental. In reaching this determination, the committee considered the significant market premium implied by Pacific Continental’s offer, the strength of Pacific Continental’s market presence and its good standing with regulators, the significant time and expenses Foundation Bancorp would incur in shopping for another deal and the potential negative impact to the business and customer and employee relations if the marketing became publicly known. The Special Committee then authorized the execution of the non-binding letter of intent with Pacific Continental.

On April 4, 2016 and April 5, 2016, Mr. Woods and Foundation Bancorp’s legal counsel from Sidley Austin negotiated with Pacific Continental and its legal counsel for substantially reduced conditionality as well as other terms favorable to Foundation Bancorp in the non-binding letter of intent. On April 5, 2016, Foundation Bancorp and Pacific Continental executed the non-binding letter of intent. Shortly thereafter, Pacific Continental’s legal counsel and Foundation Bancorp’s legal counsel exchanged data request lists in order to begin the due diligence process.

During the ensuing four weeks, representatives of Pacific Continental and Foundation Bank, and their respective legal counsel and financial advisors, conducted negotiations regarding the terms of the merger

transaction. In addition, the terms of voting and non-competition agreements between Pacific Continental and the individual directors of Foundation Bancorp and Foundation Bank and certain Foundation Bancorp shareholders were negotiated.

During this period, Foundation Bancorp’s executive management team, members of the Special Committee, and representatives from Sidley Austin and Keefe, Bruyette & Woods convened on a regular basis to discuss the status of the due diligence process, plans for communications with Foundation Bancorp’s staff, customers, shareholders, and regulators, and negotiation of the transaction terms.

During the week of April 11, 2016, members of Foundation Bancorp’s executive management met with members of Pacific Continental’s executive management in Eugene, Oregon, as part of Foundation Bancorp’s due diligence investigation of Pacific Continental.

On Sunday, April 24, 2016, a special meeting of the Foundation Bancorp board of directors was convened. Representatives of Keefe, Bruyette & Woods and Sidley Austin also participated. A representative of Sidley Austin described the extensive negotiations that had taken place and explained that, under the terms of the proposed transaction, the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp would be able to elect to receive either 0.7911 shares of Pacific Continental common stock or $12.50 in cash per share, or a combination thereof; provided that the aggregate cash consideration payable will be $19,334,017.50, or thirty percent (30%) of the total merger consideration. To the extent that the cash consideration is oversubscribed, a sufficient number of cash election shares would be converted, on a pro rata basis, into the right to receive Pacific Continental common stock. The Foundation Board discussed the fact that, given the appreciation in Pacific Continental’s share price, the fixed exchange ratio of 0.7911 would result in a per share valuation higher than $12.50. The closing price of Pacific Continental common stock on the last business day before this meeting, April 22, 2016, was $16.31 per share, implying a price of $12.90 per share for Foundation Bancorp common stock.

At this meeting, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods reviewed the financial aspects of the proposed merger and rendered to the Foundation Bancorp board of directors an opinion to the effect that, as of such date and subject to the procedures followed, assumptions made, matters considered, and qualifications and limitations on the review undertaken by Keefe, Bruyette & Woods as set forth in its opinion, the merger consideration in the proposed merger was fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock.

Representatives of Sidley Austin then reviewed with the directors their fiduciary duties under applicable law to Foundation Bancorp’s shareholders as well as terms of the merger agreement and the related shareholder and voting agreements to be entered into in connection therewith, copies of each of which had been delivered to the directors in advance of the meeting. The Foundation Bancorp board of directors then engaged in a discussion of the terms of the agreements and a representative of Sidley Austin answered their various questions. After discussion and taking into account the factors described below in greater detail, the Foundation Bancorp board of directors unanimously adopted resolutions approving the merger agreement and transactions contemplated thereby.

On April 24, 2016, the boards of directors of each of Pacific Continental Corporation and Pacific Continental Bank approved the merger agreement and the merger.

Following the Foundation Bancorp and Pacific Continental board meetings, the terms of the merger agreement and related agreements were finalized, and the agreements were executed and delivered and the transaction announced on the evening of April 26, 2016, in a press release jointly issued by Foundation Bancorp and Pacific Continental. Based on a $16.74 per share closing price of Pacific Continental’s common stock on April 26, 2016, the aggregate consideration for Foundation Bancorp was approximately $67.1 million, or $13.02 per share, over $0.50 per share higher than the purchase price contemplated in the final non-binding letter of intent.

    the complementary aspects of Foundation Bancorp’s and Pacific Continental’s businesses, including customer focus, geographic coverage, business orientation and compatibility of the companies’ cultures and management and operating styles;

 

    the fact that the merger consideration consists substantially of Pacific Continental common stock, giving former Foundation Bancorp shareholders the opportunity to participate as Pacific Continental shareholders in the benefits of the combination and the future performance of the combined company generally;

 

    Pacific Continental’s successful track record, including, among other things, with respect to the integration of acquisitions;

For further information, see “The Merger – Voting Agreements”;

 

    the Foundation Bancorp board of directors’ belief that the merger consideration exceeds Foundation Bancorp’s likely value in the absence of a merger, including its potential for future growth, which belief was based on a number of factors, including:

 

    the risks and uncertainties associated with maintaining Foundation Bancorp’s performance as a standalone company; and

 

    the Foundation Bancorp board of directors’ analysis of other strategic alternatives available to Foundation Bancorp;

 

    the greater market capitalization and anticipated trading liquidity of Pacific Continental common stock after the transaction in the event Foundation Bancorp shareholders desire to sell the shares of Pacific Continental common stock to be received by them upon completion of the merger;

 

    the financial presentation, dated April 24, 2016, of Keefe, Bruyette & Woods to the Foundation Bancorp board of directors and the opinion, dated April 24, 2016, of Keefe, Bruyette & Woods to the Foundation Bancorp board of directors as to the fairness, from a financial point of view and as of the date of the opinion, to the holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock of the merger consideration in the proposed merger, as more fully described below under “Opinion of Foundation Bancorp’s Financial Advisor”;

    the risks associated with the operations of the combined company including the challenges both of integrating Foundation Bancorp’s business, operations and employees with those of Pacific Continental and of achieving the anticipated cost savings;

 

    the potential risk of diverting management focus and resources from other strategic opportunities and from operational matters while working to implement the merger; and

 

    the fact that some of the directors and officers of Foundation Bancorp have interests in the merger and have arrangements that are different from or in addition to those of Foundation Bancorp shareholders generally.

This description of the information and factors considered by Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors is not intended to be exhaustive, but is believed to include all material factors the board considered. In determining whether to approve and recommend the merger agreement, Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors did not assign any relative or specific weights to any of the foregoing factors, and individual directors may have weighed factors differently. After deliberating with respect to the merger and the merger agreement, considering, among other things, the reasons discussed above, Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors approved the merger agreement and the merger as being in the best interests of Foundation Bancorp and its shareholders, based on the total mix of information available to the board.

Pacific Continental’s Reasons for the Merger

After careful consideration, at a meeting held on April 24, 2016, Pacific Continental’s board of directors determined that the merger is in the best interests of Pacific Continental and its shareholders and unanimously approved the merger agreement.

In reaching its decision to approve the merger agreement, the Pacific Continental board of directors consulted with the company’s management, as well as its financial and legal advisors, and considered a number of factors, including the following material factors:

 

    its knowledge of Foundation Bancorp’s business, operations, financial condition, earnings and prospects, taking into account the results of Pacific Continental’s due diligence review of Foundation Bancorp, including Pacific Continental’s assessments of Foundation Bancorp’s loan portfolio, deposit mix, credit policies, asset quality, adequacy of loan loss reserves and interest rate risk. In reviewing these factors, the Pacific Continental board of directors considered its view that Foundation Bancorp’s business banking franchise should complement that of Pacific Continental, and that Foundation Bancorp is one of the few independently-owned business banking franchises in the Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue market;

 

    the fact that the acquisition of Foundation Bancorp would enable Pacific Continental to expand its strategic presence in the Seattle market, an attractive geography given its growth prospects and economic trends;

 

    its understanding of the current and prospective environment in which Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp operate, including national and local economic conditions, the competitive environment for financial institutions generally, and the likely effect of these factors on Pacific Continental, both with and without the proposed transaction;

 

    the fact that Foundation Bancorp’s shareholders would own approximately [*]% of the outstanding shares of Pacific Continental immediately following the merger;

 

    the similarity in Foundation Bancorp’s and Pacific Continental’s business vision and commitment to their respective customers, shareholders, employees and other constituencies, and the two companies’ complementary cultures, which Pacific Continental’s management believes should facilitate integration and implementation of the transaction;

 

    the belief of Pacific Continental’s management that the merger will be accretive to Pacific Continental’s earnings under generally accepted accounting principles (referred to as “GAAP”) in periods subsequent to incurring certain non-recurring acquisition, conversion and integration costs;

 

    the anticipated pro forma impact of the merger on the combined company, including potential synergies, and the expected impact on financial metrics such as earnings and tangible equity per share, as well as on regulatory capital levels, and management’s expectation that Pacific Continental will retain its strong capital position upon completion of the transaction;

 

    the likelihood of a successful integration of Foundation Bancorp’s business, operations and workforce with those of Pacific Continental;

 

    the regulatory and other approvals required in connection with the transaction and the likelihood such approvals would be received in a timely manner and without unacceptable conditions; and

 

    the financial and other terms of the merger agreement, including the fixed exchange ratio for the stock portion of the merger consideration and the fixed amount of the cash portion of the merger consideration, tax treatment and deal protection and termination fee provisions, which the Pacific Continental board of directors reviewed with its outside financial and legal advisors.

The Pacific Continental board of directors also considered a number of potential risks and uncertainties associated with the merger in connection with its deliberations regarding the proposed transaction, including the following:

 

    the potential risk of diverting management attention and resources from the operation of Pacific Continental’s business towards the completion of the merger;

 

    the potential risks associated with achieving anticipated cost synergies and savings and successfully integrating Foundation Bancorp’s business, operations and workforce with those of Pacific Continental, particularly in the Seattle market, given the distance from Pacific Continental’s headquarters in Eugene;

 

    the merger-related costs;

 

    the termination fee provisions which require the payment of a termination fee by Pacific Continental in certain circumstances;

 

    the potential risk of losing other possible acquisition opportunities while Pacific Continental remains focused on completing the merger; and

 

    the other risks described under the heading “Risk Factors” on page 17 of this proxy statement/prospectus.

The foregoing discussion of the factors considered by the Pacific Continental board of directors is not intended to be exhaustive, but rather includes the material factors considered by the Pacific Continental board of directors. In reaching its decision to approve the merger agreement, the Pacific Continental board of directors did not quantify or assign any relative weights to the factors considered, and individual directors may have given different weights to different factors. The Pacific Continental board of directors considered all these factors as a whole, including discussions with, and questioning of, Pacific Continental management and Pacific Continental’s financial and legal advisors, and overall considered the factors to be favorable to, and to support, its determination.

For the reasons set forth above, the Pacific Continental board of directors unanimously determined that the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, including the issuance of Pacific Continental common stock in connection with the merger, are advisable and in the best interests of Pacific Continental and its shareholders.

Opinion of Foundation Bancorp’s Financial Advisor

Foundation Bancorp engaged Keefe, Bruyette & Woods to render financial advisory and investment banking services to Foundation Bancorp, including an opinion to the Foundation Bancorp board of directors as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to the holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock of the merger consideration to be received by such shareholders in the proposed merger of Foundation Bancorp with and into Pacific Continental. Foundation Bancorp selected Keefe, Bruyette & Woods because Keefe, Bruyette & Woods is a nationally recognized investment banking firm with substantial experience in transactions similar to the merger. As part of its investment banking business, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods is continually engaged in the valuation of financial services businesses and their securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions.

As part of its engagement, representatives of Keefe, Bruyette & Woods attended the meeting of the Foundation Bancorp board held on April 24, 2016, at which the Foundation Bancorp board evaluated the proposed merger. At this meeting, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods reviewed the financial aspects of the proposed merger and rendered to the Foundation Bancorp board an opinion to the effect that, as of such date and subject to the procedures followed, assumptions made, matters considered, and qualifications and limitations on the review undertaken by Keefe, Bruyette & Woods as set forth in its opinion, the merger consideration in the proposed merger was fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock. The Foundation Bancorp board approved the merger agreement at this meeting.

Keefe, Bruyette & Woods’ opinion speaks only as of the date of the opinion. The opinion was for the information of, and was directed to, the Foundation Bancorp board (in its capacity as such) in connection with its consideration of the financial terms of the merger. The opinion addressed only the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the merger consideration in the merger to the holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock. It did not address the underlying business decision of Foundation Bancorp to engage in the merger or enter into the merger agreement or constitute a recommendation to the Foundation Bancorp board in connection with the merger, and it does not constitute a recommendation to any holder of Foundation Bancorp common stock or any shareholder of any other entity as to how to vote in connection with the merger or any other matter (including, with respect to holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock, what election any such shareholder should make with respect to the cash consideration, the stock consideration or any combination thereof), nor does it constitute a recommendation regarding whether or not any such shareholder should enter into a voting, shareholders’ or affiliates’ agreement with respect to the merger or exercise any dissenters’ or appraisal rights that may be available to such shareholder.

Keefe, Bruyette & Woods’ opinion was reviewed and approved by Keefe, Bruyette & Woods’ Fairness Opinion Committee in conformity with its policies and procedures established under the requirements of Rule 5150 of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.

    a comparison of certain financial and stock market information for Foundation Bancorp and Pacific Continental with similar information for certain other companies the securities of which were publicly traded;

 

    financial and operating forecasts and projections of Foundation Bancorp that were prepared by, and provided to Keefe, Bruyette & Woods and discussed with Keefe, Bruyette & Woods by, Foundation Bancorp management and that were used and relied upon by Keefe, Bruyette & Woods at the direction of such management and with the consent of the Foundation Bancorp board;

 

    publicly available consensus “street estimates” of Pacific Continental for 2016 and 2017, as well as assumed long-term Pacific Continental growth rates provided to Keefe, Bruyette & Woods by Pacific Continental management, all of which information was discussed with Keefe, Bruyette & Woods by such management and used and relied upon by Keefe, Bruyette & Woods based on such discussions, at the direction of Foundation Bancorp management and with the consent of the Foundation Bancorp board; and

 

    estimates regarding certain pro forma financial effects of the merger on Pacific Continental (including, without limitation, the cost savings and related expenses expected to result or be derived from the merger) that were prepared by Pacific Continental management, and provided to and discussed with Keefe, Bruyette & Woods by such management, and used and relied upon by Keefe, Bruyette & Woods based on such discussions, at the direction of Foundation Bancorp management and with the consent of the Foundation Bancorp board.

Keefe, Bruyette & Woods also performed such other studies and analyses as it considered appropriate and took into account its assessment of general economic, market and financial conditions and its experience in other transactions, as well as its experience in securities valuation and knowledge of the banking industry generally. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods also participated in discussions with the managements of Foundation Bancorp and Pacific Continental regarding the past and current business operations, regulatory relations, financial condition and future prospects of their respective companies and such other matters as Keefe, Bruyette & Woods deemed relevant to its inquiry. In addition, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods considered the results of the efforts undertaken by or on behalf of Foundation Bancorp, with Keefe, Bruyette & Woods’ assistance, to solicit indications of interest from third parties regarding a potential transaction with Foundation Bancorp.

In conducting its review and arriving at its opinion, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods relied upon and assumed the accuracy and completeness of all of the financial and other information provided to it or that was publicly available and did not independently verify the accuracy or completeness of any such information or assume any responsibility or liability for such verification, accuracy or completeness. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods relied upon management of Foundation Bancorp as to the reasonableness and achievability of the financial and operating forecasts and projections of Foundation Bancorp (and the assumptions and bases therefor) that were prepared by, and provided to Keefe, Bruyette & Woods and discussed with Keefe, Bruyette & Woods by, such management and Keefe, Bruyette & Woods assumed that such forecasts and projections were reasonably prepared on a basis reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments of such management and that such forecasts and projections would be realized in the amounts and in the time periods estimated by such management. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods further relied, with the consent of Foundation Bancorp, upon Pacific Continental management

Table of Contents

as to the reasonableness and achievability of the publicly available consensus “street estimates” of Pacific Continental and the long-term Pacific Continental growth rates that were provided to and discussed with Keefe, Bruyette & Woods by Pacific Continental management, as well as the estimates regarding certain pro forma financial effects of the merger on Pacific Continental (and the assumptions and bases therefor, including, without limitation, the cost savings and related expenses expected to result or be derived from the merger) referred to above and Keefe, Bruyette & Woods assumed, with the consent of the Foundation Bancorp, that all such information was reasonably prepared on a basis reflecting, or in the case of the publicly available consensus “street estimates” of Pacific Continental referred to above were consistent with, the best currently available estimates and judgments of Pacific Continental management and that the forecasts, projections and estimates reflected in such information would be realized in the amounts and in the time periods estimated.

It is understood that the forecasts, projections and estimates of Foundation Bancorp and Pacific Continental that were provided to Keefe, Bruyette & Woods were not prepared with the expectation of public disclosure and that all of such forecasts, projections and estimates, together with the publicly available consensus “street estimates” of Pacific Continental referred to above that Keefe, Bruyette & Woods was directed to use, were based on numerous variables and assumptions that are inherently uncertain, including, without limitation, factors related to general economic and competitive conditions and that, accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from those set forth in such information. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods assumed, based on discussions with the respective managements of Foundation Bancorp and Pacific Continental and with the consent of the Foundation Bancorp board, that all such information provided a reasonable basis upon which Keefe, Bruyette & Woods could form its opinion and Keefe, Bruyette & Woods expressed no view as to any such information or the assumptions or bases therefor. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods relied on all such information without independent verification or analysis and did not in any respect assume any responsibility or liability for the accuracy or completeness thereof.

Keefe, Bruyette & Woods also assumed that there were no material changes in the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business or prospects of either Foundation Bancorp or Pacific Continental since the date of the last financial statements of each such entity that were made available to Keefe, Bruyette & Woods. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods is not an expert in the independent verification of the adequacy of allowances for loan and lease losses and Keefe, Bruyette & Woods assumed, without independent verification and with Foundation Bancorp’s consent, that the aggregate allowances for loan and lease losses for Foundation Bancorp and Pacific Continental are adequate to cover such losses. In rendering its opinion, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods did not make or obtain any evaluations or appraisals or physical inspection of the property, assets or liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of Foundation Bancorp or Pacific Continental, the collateral securing any of such assets or liabilities, or the collectability of any such assets, nor did Keefe, Bruyette & Woods examine any individual loan or credit files, nor did it evaluate the solvency, financial capability or fair value of Foundation Bancorp or Pacific Continental under any state or federal laws, including those relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or other matters. Estimates of values of companies and assets do not purport to be appraisals or necessarily reflect the prices at which companies or assets may actually be sold. Because such estimates are inherently subject to uncertainty, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods assumed no responsibility or liability for their accuracy.

Keefe, Bruyette & Woods assumed, in all respects material to its analyses:

 

    that the merger would be completed substantially in accordance with the terms set forth in the merger agreement (the final terms of which Keefe, Bruyette & Woods assumed would not differ in any respect material to Keefe, Bruyette & Woods’ analyses from the draft reviewed and referred to above) with no adjustments to the merger consideration (including the allocation among cash and stock) and with no other payments in respect of Foundation Bancorp common stock;

 

   

that any related transactions (including the subsidiary bank merger and the payment to the holders of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock of cumulative cash dividends through March 25, 2020, as set forth in the Foundation Bancorp charter, in an aggregate amount estimated by Foundation Bancorp to be

 

45


Table of Contents
 

approximately $3.5 million (the “Dividend Payment”), will be completed substantially in accordance with the terms set forth in the merger agreement or as described to us by representatives of Foundation Bancorp;

 

    that the representations and warranties of each party in the merger agreement and in all related documents and instruments referred to in the merger agreement were true and correct;

 

    that each party to the merger agreement and all related documents would perform all of the covenants and agreements required to be performed by such party under such documents;

 

    that there were no factors that would delay any necessary regulatory or governmental approval for the merger or any related transaction or cause any necessary regulatory or governmental approval for the Merger or any related transaction to be subject to any adverse conditions, and that all conditions to the completion of the merger and any related transaction would be satisfied without any waivers or modifications to the merger agreement; and

 

    that in the course of obtaining the necessary regulatory, contractual, or other consents or approvals for the merger and any related transaction, no restrictions, including any divestiture requirements, termination or other payments or amendments or modifications, would be imposed that would have a material adverse effect on the future results of operations or financial condition of Foundation Bancorp, Pacific Continental, the combined entity or the contemplated benefits of the merger, including the cost savings and related expenses expected to result or be derived from the merger.

Keefe, Bruyette & Woods assumed, in all respects material to its analyses, that the merger would be consummated in a manner that complies with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and all other applicable federal and state statutes, rules and regulations. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods was further advised by representatives of Foundation Bancorp that Foundation Bancorp relied upon advice from its advisors (other than Keefe, Bruyette & Woods) or other appropriate sources as to all legal, financial reporting, tax, accounting and regulatory matters with respect to Foundation Bancorp, Pacific Continental, the merger, any related transaction (including the subsidiary bank merger and the Dividend Payment), and the merger agreement. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods did not provide advice with respect to any such matters.

Keefe, Bruyette & Woods’ opinion addressed only the fairness, from a financial point of view, as of the date of the opinion, to the holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock, of the merger consideration to be received by such holders in the merger. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods expressed no view or opinion as to any other terms or aspects of the merger or any term or aspect of any related transaction (including the subsidiary bank merger and the Dividend Payment), including without limitation, the form or structure of the merger (including the form of the merger consideration or the allocation thereof between cash and stock) or any related transaction, any consequences of the merger or any related transaction to Foundation Bancorp, its shareholders, creditors or otherwise, or any terms, aspects, merits or implications of any employment, consulting, voting, support, shareholder or other agreements, arrangements or understandings contemplated or entered into in connection with the merger or otherwise. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods’ opinion was necessarily based upon conditions as they existed and could be evaluated on the date of such opinion and the information made available to Keefe, Bruyette & Woods through such date. Developments subsequent to the date of Keefe, Bruyette & Woods’ opinion may have affected, and may affect, the conclusion reached in Keefe, Bruyette & Woods’ opinion and Keefe, Bruyette & Woods did not and does not have an obligation to update, revise or reaffirm its opinion. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods’ opinion did not address, and Keefe, Bruyette & Woods expressed no view or opinion with respect to:

 

    the underlying business decision of Foundation Bancorp to engage in the merger or enter into the merger agreement;

 

    the relative merits of the merger as compared to any strategic alternatives that are, have been or may be available to or contemplated by Foundation Bancorp or the Foundation Bancorp board;

    the effect of the merger or any related transaction on, or the fairness of the consideration to be received by, holders of any class of securities of Foundation Bancorp (other than the holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock solely with respect to the merger consideration, as described in Keefe, Bruyette & Woods’ opinion and not relative to the consideration to be received by holders of any other class of securities) or holders of any class of securities of Pacific Continental or any other party to any transaction contemplated by the merger agreement;

 

    whether Pacific Continental has sufficient cash, available lines of credit or other sources of funds to enable it to pay the aggregate amount of the cash consideration to the holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock at the closing of the merger;

 

    the election by holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock to receive the cash consideration or the stock consideration, or any combination thereof, or the actual allocation between the cash consideration and the stock consideration among such holders (including, without limitation, any reallocation thereof as a result of proration pursuant to the merger agreement), or the relative fairness of the stock consideration and the cash consideration;

 

    any adjustment (as provided in the merger agreement) to the merger consideration assumed to be paid in the merger for purposes of Keefe, Bruyette & Woods’ opinion;

 

    the actual value of Pacific Continental common stock to be issued in the merger;

 

    the prices, trading range or volume at which Foundation Bancorp common stock or Pacific Continental common stock would trade following the public announcement of the merger or the prices, trading range or volume at which Pacific Continental common stock would trade following the consummation of the merger;

 

    whether Foundation Bancorp has sufficient cash, available lines of credit or other sources of funds to enable it to pay the Dividend Payment;

 

    any advice or opinions provided by any other advisor to any of the parties to the merger or any other transaction contemplated by the merger agreement; or

 

    any legal, regulatory, accounting, tax or similar matters relating to Foundation Bancorp, Pacific Continental, their respective shareholders, or relating to or arising out of or as a consequence of the merger or any related transaction (including the subsidiary bank merger and the Dividend Payment), including whether or not the merger would qualify as a tax-free reorganization for United States federal income tax purposes.

In performing its analyses, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods made numerous assumptions with respect to industry performance, general business, economic, market and financial conditions and other matters, which are beyond the control of Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Foundation Bancorp and Pacific Continental. Any estimates contained in the analyses performed by Keefe, Bruyette & Woods are not necessarily indicative of actual values or future results, which may be significantly more or less favorable than suggested by these analyses. Additionally, estimates of the value of businesses or securities do not purport to be appraisals or to reflect the prices at which such businesses or securities might actually be sold. Accordingly, these analyses and estimates are inherently subject to substantial uncertainty. In addition, the Keefe, Bruyette & Woods opinion was among several factors taken into consideration by the Foundation Bancorp board in making its determination to approve the merger agreement and the merger. Consequently, the analyses described below should not be viewed as determinative of the decision of the Foundation Bancorp board with respect to the fairness of the merger consideration. The type and amount of consideration payable in the merger were determined through negotiation between Foundation Bancorp and Pacific Continental and the decision to enter into the merger agreement was solely that of the Foundation Bancorp board.

Table of Contents

The following is a summary of the material financial analyses presented by Keefe, Bruyette & Woods to the Foundation Bancorp board in connection with its opinion. The summary is not a complete description of the financial analyses underlying the opinion or the presentation made by Keefe, Bruyette & Woods to the Foundation Bancorp board, but summarizes the material analyses performed and presented in connection with such opinion. The financial analyses summarized below include information presented in tabular format. The tables alone do not constitute a complete description of the financial analyses. The preparation of a fairness opinion is a complex analytic process involving various determinations as to appropriate and relevant methods of financial analysis and the application of those methods to the particular circumstances. Therefore, a fairness opinion is not readily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. In arriving at its opinion, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods did not attribute any particular weight to any analysis or factor that it considered, but rather made qualitative judgments as to the significance and relevance of each analysis and factor. Accordingly, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods believes that its analyses and the summary of its analyses must be considered as a whole and that selecting portions of its analyses and factors or focusing on the information presented below in tabular format, without considering all analyses and factors or the full narrative description of the financial analyses, including the methodologies and assumptions underlying the analyses, could create a misleading or incomplete view of the process underlying its analyses and opinion. For purposes of the financial analyses described below, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods utilized an implied value of the merger consideration of $12.78 per share of Foundation Bancorp common stock, consisting of the sum of (i) the implied value of the stock consideration of 0.7911 of a share of Pacific Continental common stock, based on the closing price of Pacific Continental common stock on April 22, 2016, multiplied by 0.70, and (ii) the cash consideration of $12.50, multiplied by 0.30. With Foundation Bancorp’s consent, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods assumed, for purposes of certain of its analyses in all respects material to such analyses, the occurrence of the Dividend Payment.

Selected Companies Analysis of Foundation Bancorp. Using publicly available information, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods compared the financial performance, financial condition and market performance of Foundation Bancorp to 11 selected banks and thrifts located in the Pacific Northwest region (defined as Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana) with publicly traded stock, assets between $200 million and $1.0 billion and last-twelve-months (“LTM”) return on assets less than 0.85%. Mutual holding companies and merger targets were excluded from the selected companies.

The selected companies included in Foundation Bancorp’s “peer” group were:

 

First Northwest Bancorp   Riverview Bancorp, Inc.
Pacific Financial Corporation   Eagle Bancorp Montana, Inc.
Citizens Bancorp   Northwest Bancorporation, Inc.
Anchor Bancorp   Community Financial Group, Inc.
Premier Commercial Bancorp   People’s Bank of Commerce
Oregon Pacific Bancorp  

To perform this analysis, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods used profitability data and other financial information as of, or for the period ended, December 31, 2015 (or March 31, 2016 as was publicly available in the case of Foundation Bancorp and People’s Bank of Commerce) and market price information as of April 22, 2016. Where consolidated holding company level financial data for the selected companies was unreported, subsidiary bank level data was utilized to calculate ratios. Certain financial data prepared by Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, as referenced in the tables presented below, may not correspond to the data presented in Foundation Bancorp’s historical financial statements as a result of the different periods, assumptions and methods used by Keefe, Bruyette & Woods to compute the financial data presented.

Rather, it involves complex considerations and judgments concerning differences in financial and operating characteristics of the companies involved.

Select Transactions Analysis. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods reviewed publicly available information related to 12 selected whole bank and thrift transactions in the Pacific Northwest region announced since January 1, 2012 with announced transaction values, total assets between $100 million and $1.0 billion and nonperforming assets to assets ratios less than 5.0%.

The selected transactions were:

 

Acquiror:

  

Acquired Company:

First Interstate BancSystem, Inc.    Flathead Bank of Bigfork, Montana
Northwest Bancorporation, Inc.    Fairfield Financial Holdings Corp.
Pacific Continental    Capital Pacific Bancorp
Glacier Bancorp, Inc.    Montana Community Banks, Inc.
Banner Corporation    Siuslaw Financial Group, Inc.
Columbia Banking System, Inc.    Intermountain Community Bancorp
First Interstate BancSystem, Inc.    Mountain West Financial Corp.
HomeStreet, Inc.    Fortune Bank
HomeStreet, Inc.    YNB Financial Services Corp.
Glacier Bancorp, Inc.    North Cascades Bancshares, Inc.
Heritage Financial Corporation    Valley Community Bancshares, Inc.
Bank of Commerce    Nicholas, Incorporated

For each selected transaction, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods derived the following implied transaction statistics, in each case based on the transaction consideration value paid for the acquired company and using financial data based on the acquired company’s then latest publicly available financial statements prior to the announcement of the acquisition:

 

    Price per common share to LTM EPS of the acquired company (in the case of selected transactions involving a private acquired company, this transaction statistic was calculated as total transaction consideration divided by LTM net income);

 

    Price per common share to book value per share of the acquired company (in the case of selected transactions involving a private acquired company, this transaction statistic was calculated as total transaction consideration divided by total book value);

 

51


Table of Contents
    Price per common share to tangible book value per share of the acquired company (in the case of selected transactions involving a private acquired company, this transaction statistic was calculated as total transaction consideration divided by total tangible common equity); and

 

    To the extent publicly available, tangible equity premium to core deposits (total deposits less time deposits greater than $100,000) of the acquired company, referred to as core deposit premium.

Keefe, Bruyette & Woods also reviewed the price per common share paid for the acquired company for each of the four selected transactions in which the acquired company had publicly traded stock as a premium to the closing stock price of the acquired company one day prior to the announcement of the acquisition (expressed as a percentage and referred to as the one-day market premium). The resulting transaction statistics for the selected transactions were compared with the corresponding transaction statistics for the proposed merger based on the implied value of the merger consideration of $12.78 per share of Foundation Bancorp common stock and using historical financial information for Foundation Bancorp as of March 31, 2016 and the closing price of Pacific Continental common stock on April 22, 2016.

Relative Contribution Analysis. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods analyzed the relative standalone contribution of Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp to various pro forma balance sheet and income statement items and the pro forma market capitalization of the combined entity. This analysis excluded purchase accounting adjustments and cost savings but assumed the occurrence of the Dividend Payment. To perform this analysis, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods used (i) balance sheet and LTM earnings data for Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp as of, or for the period ended, March 31, 2016, (ii) 2016 and 2017 earnings consensus “street estimates” for Pacific Continental, an assumed long-term earnings growth rate for Pacific Continental provided by Pacific Continental management and earnings estimates for Foundation Bancorp provided by Foundation Bancorp management and (iii) market price data as of April 22, 2016. The results of Keefe, Bruyette & Woods’ analysis are set forth in the following table, which also compares the results of Keefe, Bruyette & Woods’ analysis with

Pro Forma Financial Impact Analysis. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods performed a pro forma financial impact analysis that combined projected income statement and balance sheet information of Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp. Using closing balance sheet estimates as of September 30, 2016 for Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp per their respective managements, 2016 and 2017 consensus “street estimates” for Pacific Continental, assumed long-term growth rates for Pacific Continental provided by Pacific Continental management, financial forecasts and projections for Foundation Bancorp provided by Foundation Bancorp management, and pro forma assumptions (including purchase accounting adjustments, cost savings and related expenses) provided by Pacific Continental management, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods analyzed the potential financial impact of the merger (assuming the occurrence of the Dividend Payment on certain projected financial results. This analysis indicated that the merger could be accretive to Pacific Continental’s 2016, 2017 and 2018 estimated EPS (assuming the impact of one-time, merger-related charges at closing and no additional impact to earnings of one-time, merger-related charges), accretive to Pacific Continental’s estimated closing book value per share as of September 30, 2016 and dilutive to Pacific Continental’s estimated closing tangible book value per share as of September 30, 2016. Furthermore, the analysis indicated that, pro forma for the proposed merger, each of Pacific Continental’s tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio, Tier 1 leverage ratio, Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio and Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio as of September 30, 2016 could be lower. For all of the above analyses, the actual results achieved by Pacific Continental following the merger will vary from the projected results, and the variations may be material.

Discounted Cash Flow Analysis. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods performed a discounted cash flow analysis to estimate a range for the implied equity value of Foundation Bancorp. In this analysis, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods used financial forecasts and projections relating to the earnings and assets of Foundation Bancorp prepared by and provided to Keefe, Bruyette & Woods by Foundation Bancorp management, and assumed discount rates

Table of Contents

ranging from 15.0% to 19.0%. The range of values were derived by adding (i) the present value of the estimated free cash flows that Foundation Bancorp could generate over the period from 2016 to 2020 as a standalone company, and (ii) the present value of Foundation Bancorp’s implied terminal value at the end of such period. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods assumed that Foundation Bancorp would maintain a tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio of 8.00% and would retain sufficient earnings to maintain that level. In calculating the terminal value of Foundation Bancorp, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods applied a range of 13.0x to 17.0x estimated 2021 earnings. This discounted cash flow analysis resulted in a range of implied values per share of Foundation Bancorp common stock of $7.90 to $12.28.

The discounted cash flow analysis is a widely used valuation methodology, but the results of such methodology are highly dependent on the assumptions that must be made, including asset and earnings growth rates, terminal values, dividend payout rates, and discount rates. The analysis did not purport to be indicative of the actual values or expected values of Foundation Bancorp.

Miscellaneous. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods acted as financial advisor to Foundation Bancorp and not as an advisor to or agent of any other person. As part of its investment banking business, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods is continually engaged in the valuation of bank and bank holding company securities in connection with acquisitions, negotiated underwritings, secondary distributions of listed and unlisted securities, private placements and valuations for various other purposes. As specialists in the securities of banking companies, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods has experience in, and knowledge of, the valuation of banking enterprises. In the ordinary course of their broker-dealer businesses, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods and its affiliates may from time to time purchase securities from, and sell securities to, Foundation Bancorp and Pacific Continental and, as a market maker in securities, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods and its affiliates may from time to time have a long or short position in, and buy or sell, debt or equity securities of Foundation Bancorp or Pacific Continental for their own accounts and for the accounts of their respective customers and clients.

Pursuant to the Keefe, Bruyette & Woods engagement agreement, Foundation Bancorp agreed to pay Keefe, Bruyette & Woods a total cash fee equal to 1.00% of the aggregate merger consideration, $100,000 of which became payable to Keefe, Bruyette & Woods with the rendering of its opinion and the balance of which is contingent upon the closing of the merger. Foundation Bancorp also agreed to reimburse Keefe, Bruyette & Woods for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and disbursements incurred in connection with its retention and to indemnify Keefe, Bruyette & Woods against certain liabilities relating to or arising out of Keefe, Bruyette & Woods’ engagement or Keefe, Bruyette & Woods’ role in connection therewith. In addition to this present engagement, during the two years preceding the date of its opinion, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods has provided investment banking and financial advisory services to Foundation Bancorp and received compensation for such services. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods acted as placement agent to Foundation Bancorp in connection with Foundation Bancorp’s private placement of convertible preferred stock in March 2015. In connection with that private placement, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods received a fee of $525,000 from Foundation Bancorp. During the two years preceding the date of its opinion, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods has not provided investment banking and financial advisory services to Pacific Continental. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods may in the future provide investment banking and financial advisory services to Foundation Bancorp and/or Pacific Continental and receive compensation for such services.

Board of Directors and Management of Pacific Continental After the Merger

At the effective time of the merger, the board of directors of the combined company will consist of the current directors of Pacific Continental, except that Pacific Continental will take all necessary actions to appoint Thomas Ellison and Duane C. Woods, as of the effective time of the merger, to the boards of directors of each of Pacific Continental and Pacific Continental Bank. The chairperson of the board of directors of the combined company will be the existing chairperson of the board of directors of Pacific Continental.

Interests of Foundation Bancorp’s Directors and Officers in the Merger

Foundation Bancorp shareholders should be aware that some of Foundation Bancorp’s directors and officers have interests in the merger and have arrangements that are different from, or in addition to, those of Foundation Bancorp shareholders generally. Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors was aware of these interests and considered these interests, among other matters, when making its decision to adopt the merger agreement, and in recommending that Foundation Bancorp shareholders vote in favor of approving the merger agreement.

Equity Interests of Directors and Executive Officers

Restricted Stock. At the closing of the merger, each holder of a share of restricted stock awarded by Foundation Bancorp under its equity incentive plans and then outstanding, whether vested or unvested, will become fully vested and, subject to the election and proration procedures described in this proxy statement/prospectus, the holders thereof may elect to receive the merger consideration.

The following table sets forth the number of shares of Foundation Bancorp restricted stock held by each director and executive officer of Foundation Bancorp as of December 31, 2015, and the value of the merger consideration for which they could be exchanged in the merger (assuming cash merger consideration of $12.50 per share and using the closing stock price of Pacific Continental common stock on July [*], 2016, the last trading day before the date of this proxy statement/prospectus). The following table assumes that Foundation Bancorp’s directors and executive officers will not sell or acquire any shares of Foundation Bancorp restricted stock following the date of this proxy statement/prospectus.

Change in Control Payments

After the effective time of the merger, Pacific Continental Corporation will make the change in control payments provided for in written employment agreements entered into between Foundation Bancorp and certain officers of Foundation Bancorp prior to the date of the merger agreement, regardless of whether such officers will continue as employees of Pacific Continental Corporation, conditioned on the officers entering into written agreements to release Pacific Continental Corporation and its predecessors in interest from any liabilities arising out of or related to the payments. Foundation Bank entered into employment agreements with five of its officers in October 2014 or December 2014. Each agreement has a three-year term with a current expiration date in October 2017 or December 2017, as applicable, and would automatically renew for successive one-year periods, provided that (i) neither the officer, nor Foundation Bank or Foundation Bancorp gives notice to the other in writing at least

 

55


Table of Contents

90 days prior to the anniversary of the term that the agreement should not be extended further, and (ii) prior to such anniversary Foundation Bancorp’s board of directors or its compensation & governance committee explicitly reviews and approves the extension. The agreements include provisions for fixed amounts of cash severance compensation and continuation of health and welfare benefits under various circumstances, including termination by Foundation Bank without cause or by the executive for good reason, with enhanced benefits following a change in control of the bank. The consummation of the mergers will constitute a change in control under the agreements.

Upon involuntary termination of employment (other than by reason of death or disability or for cause) during the period commencing on the sixth month anniversary preceding a change in control of Foundation Bank and ending on the second anniversary of such change in control, each executive with an employment agreement is entitled to receive a lump sum cash severance payment in an amount equal to 1.0 times, 1.5 times, or 2.0 times the executive’s annual base salary in effect as of the date of termination. The cash payment is to be paid to the executive within 25 business days after his or her termination date. The officers are also entitled to a continuation of his or her health and welfare benefits for a period of one year.

Pacific Continental Corporation has agreed to make payments equal to the change in control payments provided for in the employment agreements following the effective time of the merger to Jocelyn Lane, Randy Cloes, Richard Deglman, Brett Ballman and Eileen Magnusson, in the following amounts, if they execute the required release: $380,000, $277,500, $277,500, $135,000, and $110,000, respectively.

The Foundation Bancorp compensation & governance committee has also authorized the payment of transaction bonus payments to six officers in conjunction with the merger. A partial payment was made to five of the officers on December 21, 2015. The remaining payments to the five officers and the full payment to the sixth officer will be made upon a successful close of the merger in 2016. The committee authorized total payments to Duane Woods, Jocelyn Lane, Randy Cloes, Richard Deglman, Brett Ballman and Eileen Magnusson, in the following amounts: $135,000 $80,000, $80,000, $80,000, $80,000, and $50,000, respectively; with $505,000 payable to such officers in the aggregate. Pacific Continental has agreed to pay Duane Woods a supplemental transaction bonus in the amount of $135,000 after the closing of the merger.

Pursuant to the terms of the Foundation Bancorp Equity Incentive Plan, in the event of a change in control, all restricted stock awards that have been granted will become fully vested and all restrictions on such awards will immediately lapse if the shares are not otherwise assumed or substituted for equivalent equity awards.

Continuing Employment of Certain Foundation Bancorp Officers

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, certain of the executive officers of Foundation Bancorp have accepted offers of employment with Pacific Continental. Following the merger, Jocelyn Lane, Executive Vice President and Market President, will be employed by Pacific Continental Bank in the position of Executive Vice President, Market President, Greater Seattle Market; Brett Ballman, Senior Vice President – Director of Operations, Risk and Regulatory Affairs, will be employed by Pacific Continental Bank as a senior vice president, Director of Internal Audit; and Eileen Magnusson, Senior Vice President and Director of Human Resources, will be employed by Pacific Continental Bank as a vice president, HR Business Partner.

The terms of employment provide for base salary, and additional amounts that may be awarded for bonus potential and equity compensation potential, and an equity signing grant, as follows: Ms. Lane, $190,015 base salary, 25% bonus potential, 25% equity compensation potential, and a $10,000 equity signing grant; Mr. Ballman, $135,000 base salary, 15% bonus potential, 10% equity compensation potential, and a $10,000 equity signing grant; and Ms. Magnusson, $110,000 base salary, 15% bonus potential, 10% equity compensation potential, and a $10,000 equity signing grant. Ms. Lane will also be recommended to Pacific Continental’s compensation committee for a change in control agreement, consistent with the form of change in control agreement for other executive officers and key employees of Pacific Continental, providing for a cash payment

of two times Ms. Lane’s annual base salary plus cash bonus opportunity in the event of a qualifying termination of employment in connection with a change in control of Pacific Continental.

Board Representation

At the effective time of the merger, the board of directors of the combined company will consist of the current directors of Pacific Continental, except that Pacific Continental will take all necessary actions to appoint Thomas Ellison and Duane C. Woods, as of the effective time of the merger, to the boards of directors of each of Pacific Continental Corporation and Pacific Continental Bank. The chairperson of the board of directors of the combined company will be the existing chairperson of the board of directors of Pacific Continental Corporation. See “– Board of Directors and Management of Pacific Continental After the Merger”.

Protection of Directors and Officers Against Claims

Pacific Continental has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless each of Foundation Bancorp’s directors and officers from costs and expenses arising out of matters existing or occurring at or before the consummation of the merger to the fullest extent allowed under applicable law and the articles of incorporation and bylaws of Foundation Bancorp and Foundation Bank. Pacific Continental has also agreed that it will maintain Foundation Bancorp’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy, or provide a policy providing coverage at least as favorable to the indemnified parties as Foundation Bancorp’s existing policies, for the benefit of Foundation Bancorp’s directors and officers who are currently covered by such insurance, for a period of six years from the effective time of the merger, with respect to matters existing or occurring prior to the effective time of the merger, subject to a limit on the premium cost to maintain such coverage.

Public Trading Markets

Pacific Continental common stock is listed for trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “PCBK,” and Foundation Bancorp common stock is traded over the counter under the OTCBB symbol “FNDB”. Upon completion of the merger, Foundation Bancorp common stock will no longer be traded.

Under the merger agreement, Pacific Continental will cause the shares of Pacific Continental common stock to be issued in the merger to be approved for listing on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, subject to notice of issuance, and the merger agreement provides that neither Pacific Continental nor Foundation Bancorp will be required to complete the merger if such shares are not approved for quotation on the Nasdaq Global Select Market.

Pacific Continental’s Dividend Policy

Pacific Continental has regularly paid cash dividends on a quarterly basis, typically in February, May, August and November of each year. The Pacific Continental board of directors considers the dividend amount quarterly and takes a broad perspective in its dividend deliberations including a review of recent operating performance, capital levels, and concentrations of loans as a percentage of capital, and growth projections. The Pacific Continental board of directors also considers dividend payout ratios, dividend yield, and other financial metrics in setting the quarterly dividend. No assurances can be given that any dividends will be paid by Pacific Continental or that dividends, if paid, will not be reduced in future periods. Dividends from Pacific Continental will depend, in large part, upon receipt of dividends from Pacific Continental Bank. Pacific Continental’s board of directors may change its dividend policy at any time, and the payment of dividends by banks and financial holding companies is generally subject to legal and regulatory limitations. For further information on Pacific Continental’s dividend history, see “Comparative Market Prices and Dividends”.

Dissenters’ Rights of Foundation Bancorp Shareholders

Shareholders who dissent from a proposed plan of merger are entitled to receive the fair value of their shares under Revised Code of Washington (“RCW”) 23B.13.010 through 23B.13.310. A copy of these statutes is attached as Annex B.

To perfect dissenters’ rights, a shareholder must deliver written notice of dissent to Foundation Bancorp, prior to the vote on the merger being taken at the special meeting. Additionally, such shareholder must not vote his or her shares of Foundation Bancorp stock in favor of the merger.

This section is intended as a brief summary of the material provisions of the Washington statutory procedures that a shareholder must follow in order to properly demand and perfect dissenters’ rights. This summary, however, is not intended as a complete statement of all applicable requirements, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to RCW 23B.13.010 through RCW 23B.13.310, the full text of which appears in Annex B. The following summary does not constitute any legal or other advice, nor does it constitute a recommendation that shareholders assert their dissenters’ rights under the RCW.

A shareholder may only dissent with respect to all of the shareholder’s shares, except that a shareholder of record holding shares beneficially owned by another person may assert dissenters’ rights as to fewer than all of the Foundation Bancorp shares registered in such shareholder’s name only if such shareholder dissents with respect to all shares beneficially owned by any one person and delivers to Foundation Bancorp a notice of the name and address of each person on whose behalf the shareholder asserts dissenters’ rights. A beneficial shareholder may assert dissenters’ rights as to shares held on the beneficial shareholder’s behalf only if (i) the beneficial owner submits to Foundation Bancorp the record holder’s consent to the dissent not later than the time the beneficial shareholder asserts dissenters’ rights, which consent shall be set forth either (1) in a record or (2) if the corporation has designated an address, location or system to which the consent may be electronically transmitted and the consent is electronically transmitted to the designated address, location or system, in an electronically transmitted record, and (ii) the beneficial shareholder does so with respect to all shares of which such shareholder is the beneficial owner or over which such shareholder has the power to direct the vote.

If the merger is approved, Foundation Bancorp will deliver to all shareholders who have satisfied the requirements described above a written dissenters’ notice. The notice will be sent within 10 days after the special meeting and will, among other things, state where the payment demand must be sent (and where and when stock certificates must be deposited) and supply a form for demanding payment. The form will include the date of the first announcement of the terms of the merger and will require certification by the person assisting dissenters’ rights as to whether or not the dissenting shareholder acquired beneficial ownership before that date. The dissenters’ notice will also set a date by which Foundation Bancorp must receive the payment demand.

A shareholder receiving a dissenters’ notice must demand payment, certify whether or not he or she acquired beneficial ownership of the shares before the date set forth in the notice, and deposit stock certificates in accordance with the terms of the notice. A shareholder who does not properly and timely satisfy these requirements will not be entitled to payment for his or her shares under the dissenters’ rights statutes and will instead receive the merger consideration.

Within 30 days of the later date of the effective date of the merger or its receipt of a proper and timely payment demand, the surviving corporation will pay to each dissenting shareholder the amount that the surviving corporation estimates to be the fair value of such shareholder’s shares, plus accrued interest. The payment will be accompanied by, among other things, a copy of the surviving corporation’s ’s balance sheet and income statement, the latest available interim financial statements, if any, an explanation of how the surviving corporation estimated the fair value of the shares, an explanation of how the interest was calculated, a statement of the dissenter’s right to demand payment under RCW 23B.13.280, and a copy of the applicable provisions of

 

58


Table of Contents

the RCW 23B.13.010 through 23B 13.310. Investment banker opinions as to the fairness from a financial point of view of the consideration payable in a transaction such as the merger are not opinions as to, and do not in any way address, fair value under the RCW.

The surviving corporation may elect to withhold payment from a dissenter unless the dissenter was the beneficial owner of the shares before the date set forth in the dissenters’ notice. To the extent the surviving corporation elects to withhold payment after the effective date of the merger, it will estimate the fair value of the shares plus accrued interest, and will pay this amount to each dissenter who agrees to accept it in full satisfaction of the dissenters’ demand. The payment will be accompanied by an explanation of how the surviving corporation estimated the fair value of the shares, an explanation of how the interest was calculated and a statement of the dissenter’s right to demand payment under RCW 23B.13.280

A dissenting shareholder may deliver a notice to the surviving corporation informing the surviving corporation of the dissenting shareholder’s own estimate of the fair value of the shares and amount of interest due, and demand payment of the dissenter’s estimate, less any payment under RCW 23B.13.250, or reject the surviving corporation’s offer and demand payment of the dissenter’s estimate of the fair value and interest due, under certain conditions specified in RCW 23B.13.280. If a dissenter wishes to submit his, her or its own estimate of the fair value of such dissenter’s shares, such dissenter must deliver the notice and demand payment within 30 days after the surviving corporation makes or offers payment for the dissenter’s shares. Failure to do so will cause such dissenter to waive this right to demand payment.

If a demand for payment remains unsettled, the surviving corporation will commence a proceeding, within 60 days after receiving the dissenting shareholder’s payment demand under RCW 23B.13.280 and petition the court to determine the fair value of the shares and accrued interest. If the surviving corporation does not commence the proceeding within the sixty-day period, it shall pay each dissenter whose demand remains unsettled the dissenting shareholder’s estimated fair value of the shares.

As the surviving corporation is not a Washington corporation, it must commence the proceeding in the superior court of the county where its registered office is located. The registered office for Pacific Continental, as the surviving corporation in Washington, is c/o Pacific Continental Bank, CT Corporation System, 505 Union Avenue SE, Suite 120, Olympia, Washington 98501, and accordingly, the proceeding will be in the superior court in Thurston County, Washington. The surviving corporation must make all dissenters whose demands remain unsettled parties to the proceeding as in an action against their shares and all parties must be served with a copy of the petition. Nonresidents may be served by registered or certified mail or by publication as provided by law.

The surviving corporation may join as a party to the proceeding any shareholder who claims to be a dissenter but who has not, in the opinion of the surviving corporation, complied with the provisions of RCW 23B.13.300. If the court determines that such shareholder has not complied with the provisions of RCW 23B.13.300, the shareholder will be dismissed as a party.

The jurisdiction of the court in which the proceeding is commenced under RCW 23B.13.300 is plenary and exclusive. The court may appoint one or more persons as appraisers to receive evidence and recommend decision on the question of fair value. The appraisers have the powers described in the order appointing them, or in any amendment to it. The dissenters are entitled to the same discovery rights as parties in other civil proceedings.

Each dissenter made a party to such proceeding is entitled to judgment for the amount, if any, by which the court finds the fair value of the dissenter’s shares, plus interest, exceeds the amount paid by the surviving corporation, or the fair value, plus accrued interest, of the dissenter’s after-acquired shares for which the surviving corporation elected to withhold payment under RCW 23B.13.270.

 

59


Table of Contents

The court will determine all costs of such proceeding and will assess such costs against the surviving corporation, including the reasonable compensation and expenses of appraisers appointed by the court, except to the extent the court finds the dissenters acted arbitrarily, vexatiously, or not in good faith in demanding payment under chapter 23B.13.280. The court may also assess certain fees and expenses of counsel and experts for the respective parties, as provided in RCW 23B.13.310, in amounts the court finds equitable.

If the court finds that the services of counsel for any dissenter were of substantial benefit to other dissenters similarly situated, and that the fees for those services should not be assessed against the surviving corporation, the court may award to these counsel reasonable fees to be paid out of the amounts awarded the dissenters who were benefited.

In view of the complexity of RCW 23B.13.010 through 23B.13.310, and the requirement that shareholders must strictly comply with these provisions, shareholders of Foundation Bancorp who wish to dissent from the merger and pursue dissenters’ rights should consult their legal and financial advisors.

The failure of a Foundation Bancorp shareholder to comply strictly with the Washington statutory requirements will result in a loss of dissenters’ rights. A copy of the relevant statutory provisions is attached as Annex B. You are urged to refer to the annex for a complete statement concerning dissenters’ rights. The foregoing summary of such rights is qualified in its entirety by reference to that annex.

Regulatory Approvals Required for the Merger

Completion of the merger is subject to prior receipt of certain approvals and consents (or waivers or non-objections) required to be obtained from applicable governmental and regulatory authorities. Subject to the terms of the merger agreement, Foundation Bancorp has agreed to cooperate with Pacific Continental and use its reasonable best efforts to assist Pacific Continental in obtaining all regulatory approvals necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement. Under applicable law, the merger must be approved (or waived or not objected to) by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, or “Federal Reserve Board,” and the bank merger must be approved by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or “FDIC”, the Director of the Oregon Division of Finance and Corporate Securities, or “Oregon Director” and the Agency Director of the Washington State Department of Financial Institutions, or “Washington Director”.

Bank Regulatory Approvals and Notices

The transactions contemplated by the merger agreement are subject to approval (or waiver) by the Federal Reserve Board pursuant to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (which we refer to as the “BHC Act”).

The merger of Foundation Bank with and into Pacific Continental Bank is subject to approval by the FDIC pursuant to the Bank Merger Act. Pacific Continental Bank submitted an application pursuant to the Bank Merger Act seeking the prior approval of the FDIC for Foundation Bank to merge with and into Pacific Continental Bank. The FDIC takes into consideration a number of factors when acting on applications under the Bank Merger Act. These factors include the financial and managerial resources (including consideration of the competence, experience, and integrity of the officers, directors, and principal shareholders) and future prospects of the combined organization. The FDIC also considers the effectiveness of the applicant in combating money laundering, and the convenience and needs of the communities to be served, as well as the extent to which the proposal would result in greater or more concentrated risks to the stability of the U.S. banking or financial system. The FDIC may not approve a proposal that would have significant adverse effects on competition or on the concentration of resources in any banking market. In reviewing the convenience and needs of the communities to be served, the Federal Reserve and the FDIC will consider the records of performance of the relevant insured depository institutions under the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 (which we refer to as the “CRA”). In their most recent respective CRA examinations, both Pacific Continental Bank and Foundation

Table of Contents

Bank received an overall “satisfactory” regulatory rating. The Bank Merger Act and applicable regulations require published notice of, and the opportunity for public comment on, these applications. The FDIC takes into account the views of third party commenters, particularly on the subject of the merging parties’ service to their respective communities, and any hearing, meeting or comments provided by third parties could prolong the period during which the application is under review by the FDIC. As of the date hereof, the FDIC has approved Pacific Continental Bank’s application for Foundation Bank to merge with and into Pacific Continental Bank.

The transactions contemplated by the merger agreement are subject to approval by the Oregon Director pursuant to the Oregon Revised Statutes (“ORS”) and the Washington Director pursuant to the RCW. Pacific Continental Bank submitted an application to each of the Oregon Director and the Washington Director for Pacific Continental Bank to acquire Foundation Bank by merger. Among other things, the Oregon Director considers whether the proposed transaction conforms with the ORS and whether the proposed transaction is detrimental to the safety and soundness of the resulting Oregon state-chartered bank or the public interest. Among other things, the Washington Director will consider the identity, banking and business experience of Pacific Continental, its financial and managerial resources and future prospects, the terms and conditions of the proposed transaction, the source and amount of the funds or other consideration used or to be used in making the acquisition, and any plan or proposal to make any major change in the bank’s business or corporate structure. As of the date hereof, the Oregon Director has approved the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, conditioned upon evidence of approval or non-objection being granted by all other regulatory agencies having jurisdiction over the transaction.

Notifications and/or applications requesting approval may be submitted to various other federal and state regulatory authorities and self-regulatory organizations. Neither Pacific Continental nor Foundation Bancorp is aware of any material governmental approvals or actions that are required for completion of the merger other than those described above. It is presently contemplated that if any such additional governmental approvals or actions are required, those approvals or actions will be sought. There can be no assurance, however, that any additional approvals or actions will be obtained.

Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp have filed all of the required applications, and filed a request for a waiver from the Federal Reserve Board of its application requirements that would apply to this merger. As of the date hereof, the Federal Reserve Board has granted the requested waiver of its application requirements.

Although neither Foundation Bancorp nor Pacific Continental knows of any reason why these regulatory approvals cannot be obtained in a timely manner, Foundation Bancorp and Pacific Continental cannot be certain when or if they will be obtained. Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp believe that the merger does not raise significant regulatory concerns and that all requisite regulatory approvals should be obtained. However, neither Pacific Continental nor Foundation Bancorp can assure you that all of the regulatory approvals described above will be obtained and, if obtained, we cannot assure you as to the timing of any such approvals, the parties’ ability to obtain the approvals on satisfactory terms or the absence of any litigation challenging such approvals. In addition, there can be no assurance that such approvals will not impose conditions or requirements that, individually or in the aggregate, would or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, assets or business of the combined company.

Voting Agreements

In connection with the merger agreement, each of Thomas Ellison, who as of the record date had the right to vote approximately [*]% of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock, and Castle Creek Capital, which as of the record date had the right to vote 100% of the outstanding shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock, agreed, subject to certain exceptions, to vote their respective shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock and Foundation Bancorp preferred stock in favor of the merger proposal. The obligations of Mr. Ellison and the obligations of Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, to vote in favor of the merger, terminate

Table of Contents

on the earliest to occur of (1) the effective time of the merger, (2) a change in recommendation of the Foundation Bancorp board of directors to approve the merger, or (3) termination of the merger agreement in accordance with its terms.

The voting agreements generally require that each of Mr. Ellison and Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, vote his or its shares (including any shares acquired after the execution of the voting agreement) in favor of the merger and against any acquisition proposal, any action, proposal, transaction or agreement which would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of Foundation Bancorp or Foundation Bank under the merger agreement or of the shareholder under the voting agreement, or any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that would reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, delay, discourage, adversely affect or inhibit the timely consummation of the merger or the fulfillment of the conditions of Pacific Continental, Pacific Continental Bank, Foundation Bancorp or Foundation Bank under the merger agreement.

Each of Mr. Ellison and Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, has agreed not to deposit any shares in any voting trust, grant any proxies or otherwise subject any of his or its shares to any arrangement with respect to the voting of the shares. Each of Mr. Ellison and Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, is also restricted from transferring or encumbering the shares, except that transfers to affiliates of the shareholder are permitted by the voting agreement.

In addition, in connection with the merger agreement, each of the directors who own shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock and certain of the officers of Foundation Bancorp and Foundation Bank individually entered into an agreement with Pacific Continental to vote their shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock in favor of the merger agreement and against any competing proposal, subject to certain exceptions. These shareholders in the aggregate held approximately [*]% of Foundation Bancorp’s outstanding common stock as of [*], 2016. For further information, see “The Merger Agreement – Voting Agreements” and “– Voting and Non-Competition Agreements.”

The foregoing description of the voting agreements and the voting and non-competition agreements is only a summary and shareholders are urged to read the form of such agreements included in this proxy statement/prospectus as Exhibits A-1 and A-2 to Annex A.

THE MERGER AGREEMENT

The following describes certain aspects of the mergers and includes a summary of certain material provisions of the merger agreement. The following description is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the merger agreement, which is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A and is incorporated by reference into this proxy statement/prospectus. We urge you to read the merger agreement carefully and in its entirety, as it is the legal document governing the mergers.

Structure of the Mergers

Each of the boards of directors of Pacific Continental Corporation, Pacific Continental Bank, Foundation Bancorp and Foundation Bank has unanimously approved the merger, and Pacific Continental Corporation, Pacific Continental Bank, Foundation Bancorp and Foundation Bank have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 26, 2016 (which, as amended, we refer to as the “merger agreement”). Under the merger agreement, Foundation Bancorp will be merged with and into Pacific Continental Corporation (which we refer to as the “merger”), with Pacific Continental Corporation continuing as the surviving corporation. Immediately following the completion of the merger, Foundation Bancorp’s wholly owned bank subsidiary, Foundation Bank, will merge with and into Pacific Continental’s wholly owned bank subsidiary, Pacific Continental Bank (which we refer to as the “bank merger”). The mergers will occur upon closing, following the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions set forth in the merger agreement.

Merger Consideration

If the merger is completed, holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock (other than those exercising dissenters’ rights) may elect to receive “merger consideration” consisting of either (1) cash in an amount equal to $12.50 per share or (2) 0.7911 shares of Pacific Continental common stock for each issued and outstanding share of Foundation Bancorp common stock. The preferred stock of Foundation Bancorp will become convertible into the right to receive the merger consideration with respect to 1,500,000 shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock, together with cumulative cash dividends payable to such holders through March 25, 2020, as set forth in the charter of Foundation Bancorp. The Merger Agreement also provides that 79,000 shares of restricted stock of Foundation Bancorp granted pursuant to certain equity incentive plans shall become fully vested as of the effective time of the merger, and the holders thereof may elect to receive the merger consideration, as provided above.

Pacific Continental will not issue any fractional shares of Pacific Continental common stock in the merger. Foundation Bancorp shareholders who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share of Pacific Continental common stock upon the completion of the merger will instead receive an amount in cash (without interest) determined by multiplying the fractional share interest to which a shareholder would otherwise be entitled by the per share cash consideration.

Pacific Continental may opt to increase the merger consideration in specific circumstances where Foundation Bancorp could otherwise terminate the merger agreement. For more information regarding these termination rights and the adjustment that may result to the merger consideration, see “– Termination of the Merger Agreement”. The cash consideration is also subject to potential adjustment as provided in the merger agreement in the event that Foundation Bancorp’s transaction expenses exceed an agreed amount. See “– Effect of Termination; Expenses; Termination Fees”.

If, prior to the closing of the mergers, Pacific Continental increases, decreases, changes into or exchanges its common stock for a different kind of shares or securities, as a result of a stock dividend, stock split, or reverse stock split or similar transaction involving the issuance of Pacific Continental common stock for which no consideration is received, or other similar change in capitalization, then an appropriate and proportionate adjustment shall be made to the per share stock consideration to provide the holders of shares of Foundation

Foundation Bancorp shareholders may elect to receive either Pacific Continental common stock (a “stock election”), cash (a “cash election”), or stock with respect to 70% of such holder’s Foundation Bancorp shares and cash with respect to the remaining 30% of such holder’s shares (a “mixed election”) in the merger on an election form to be provided by the exchange agent designated by Pacific Continental to conduct the election and exchange procedures on a date which is on or about the thirtieth (30th) day prior to the anticipated effective date of the merger. A shareholder may also make no election with respect to such holder’s shares of Foundation Bancorp stock. The shares elected to be exchanged for Pacific Continental common stock are “stock election shares”, those to be exchanged for cash are “cash election shares”, those to be exchanged for 70% stock and 30% cash are “mixed election shares”, and those for which no election was made are “no-election shares”.

The exchange agent may allocate among the Foundation Bancorp shareholders the right to receive Pacific Continental common stock and cash in the merger to ensure that the aggregate cash consideration payable to the holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock in the merger will be $19,334,017.50, subject to potential adjustment as provided for in the merger agreement. To the extent that Foundation Bancorp’s transaction expenses exceed $1,200,000 on an after-tax basis (subject, for such purpose, to certain exclusions), any excess shall reduce the per share cash consideration for the transaction by the quotient of such excess divided by the total number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Foundation Bancorp (including that number of shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock into which the shares of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock shall be convertible). See “– Effect of Termination; Expenses; Termination Fees” for additional information regarding the potential adjustment to the per share cash consideration. Pacific Continental may opt to increase the merger consideration in specific circumstances where Foundation Bancorp could otherwise terminate the merger agreement.

If there are an insufficient number of cash election shares to result in the amount of the aggregate cash consideration discussed above, then the exchange agent may convert no-election shares (in such manner as to maximize the number of no-election shares treated as subject to a mixed election), followed by stock election shares (allocated on a pro rata basis), to cash election shares. If there is an excess of cash election shares, some may be converted to the right to receive Pacific Continental common stock, with those cash election shares subject to a mixed election converted only after no-election shares and shares electing exclusively for a cash election have been converted to stock election shares.

Treatment of Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock

At the closing of the merger, Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, the holder of 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of preferred stock of Foundation will become convertible into the right to receive the merger consideration with respect to 1,500,000 shares of Foundation common stock, together with cumulative cash dividends payable in respect of such preferred stock through March 25, 2020, as set forth in the charter of Foundation Bancorp. Subject to the election and proration procedures described in this proxy statement prospectus, the holder thereof may elect to receive the per share stock consideration or the per share cash consideration, or a combination thereof, payable in the merger. In connection with the merger agreement, Castle Creek Capital has agreed, subject to certain exceptions, to vote its shares of preferred stock of Foundation in favor of the merger proposal, satisfying the vote required for the preferred stockholders to approve the merger proposal. Pursuant to its voting agreement with Pacific Continental, Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, has agreed to waive and not assert or perfect any dissenters’ rights or any liquidation rights that such shareholder may have by virtue of ownership of the shares in connection with the merger. The obligations of Castle Creek

Capital Partners V, LP, under the voting agreement terminate on (1) the effective time of the merger, (2) a change in recommendation of the Foundation Bancorp board of directors to approve the merger, or (3) termination of the merger agreement in accordance with its terms, whichever occurs first. Castle Creek Capital Partners V, LP, as the holder of the Foundation Bancorp preferred stock, will also receive a cumulative cash dividend at closing, which would be $4,035,938 if the closing occurred on June 30, 2016, which amount represents the total cumulative dividend payable to such preferred stockholder through March 25, 2020.

Treatment of Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock

At the closing of the merger, each holder of a share of restricted stock awarded by Foundation Bancorp and then outstanding, whether vested or unvested, will become fully vested as of the effective time of the merger and the holder thereof may elect to receive the per share stock consideration or the per share cash consideration, or a combination thereof, payable in the merger, subject to the election and proration procedures described in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Exchange of Certificates

Simultaneously with the mailing of the election form discussed above, the exchange agent will provide each Foundation Bancorp shareholder with a letter of transmittal and instructions for surrendering each share of Foundation Bancorp common stock, Foundation Bancorp restricted stock or Foundation Bancorp preferred stock or book-entry share, as applicable, to the exchange agent in exchange for the merger consideration elected by such Foundation Bancorp shareholder.

If a certificate representing shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock, Foundation Bancorp restricted stock or Foundation Bancorp preferred stock has been lost, stolen or destroyed, the exchange agent will issue the merger consideration upon receipt of an affidavit of that fact by the claimant and if reasonably required by Pacific Continental or the exchange agent, the posting of a bond in such amount as Pacific Continental may determine is reasonably necessary as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such certificate.

Non-Solicitation

Subject to the exceptions summarized below, Foundation Bancorp has agreed not to initiate or solicit or participate in discussions or negotiations with any other party with respect to a competing acquisition proposal, or to enter into any agreement relating to any such proposal, unless Foundation Bancorp receives an unsolicited bona fide proposal that the board of directors determines in good faith and after consultation with its outside legal counsel and its independent financial advisors constitutes, or is reasonably likely to constitute, a proposal that is more favorable to its shareholders than the merger (a “superior proposal”), and as to which the Foundation Bancorp Board has also determined in good faith, and based on the advice of its outside legal counsel, that failure to do so would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties. The merger agreement defines “acquisition proposal” as any proposal or offer with respect to the following involving Foundation Bancorp or Foundation Bank: (1) any merger, consolidation, share exchange, business combination or similar transaction; (2) any sale, lease, exchange, pledge, transfer or other disposition of 15% or more of either of their respective consolidated assets in a single transaction or series of transactions; (3) any tender offer or exchange offer for, or other acquisition of, 15% or more of the outstanding shares of either of their respective capital stock; or (4) any public announcement of a proposal, plan or intention to do any of the foregoing, or any agreement to engage in any of the foregoing, other than the mergers provided for in the merger agreement. In order to be a “superior proposal”, the phrase “15% or more” in the merger agreement definition of “acquisition proposal” is replaced by the phrase “50% or more”.

Table of Contents

Foundation Bancorp, before shareholder approval of the merger agreement, is permitted to, following receipt of an unsolicited bona fide acquisition proposal that the board of directors determines in good faith and after consultation with its outside legal counsel and its independent financial advisors constitutes, or is reasonably likely to constitute, a superior proposal, (1) provide confidential information or data to the party making the acquisition proposal and its representatives under the terms of a confidentiality agreement at least as favorable to Foundation Bancorp as those contained in the confidentiality agreement between Foundation Bancorp and Pacific Continental, and (2) engage in negotiations or have discussions regarding the acquisition proposal.

Foundation Bancorp is required to advise Pacific Continental within two business days after receipt of any acquisition proposal of the receipt of any such acquisition proposal and the material terms of such proposal or inquiry and keep Pacific Continental reasonably and promptly informed of the status and details of any such proposal or inquiry. In the merger agreement, Foundation Bancorp also agreed to immediately cease any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any other parties as of the date of the merger agreement.

Indemnification. After the effective time of the merger, Pacific Continental will indemnify each officer and director of Foundation Bancorp and Foundation Bank against all losses, damages and expenses in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, based in whole or in part or arising out of or pertaining to the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer or employee of Foundation Bancorp or Foundation Bank or (ii) the merger agreement, the merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement. Any rights to indemnification provided for under the organizational documents and bylaws of Foundation Bancorp and Foundation Bank, as in effect as of the date of the merger agreement, will survive the merger and be honored by Pacific Continental in accordance with their terms for a period of six years following the closing.

If Foundation Bancorp and Pacific Continental fail to obtain “tail” insurance policies as of the effective time of the merger, Pacific Continental, as the surviving corporation, will maintain the directors’ and officers’ insurance in effect as of the date of the merger agreement for a period of six years with benefits and levels of coverage at least as favorable as provided in Foundation Bancorp’s existing policies, except that Pacific Continental will not be required to pay an annual premium amount in excess of 300% of the annual premiums currently paid by Foundation Bancorp.

Employee and Benefit Plan Matters

Termination of Benefit Plans. Prior to the effective time of the merger, Foundation Bancorp will take all actions necessary to terminate the Foundation Bancorp Long Term Equity Incentive Plan and the Foundation Bancorp 401(k) Plan. In addition, before the effective time of the merger, Foundation and its subsidiaries are required, at the direction of Pacific Continental Bank, to take all actions necessary to terminate, cease benefit accruals, cause the continuation of any employee benefit plans, or facilitate the merger of any Foundation employee benefit plan (each, a “Foundation plan”) into any employee benefit plan maintained by Pacific Continental Bank.

Employee Eligibility for PCB Benefit Plans. Employees of Foundation and its subsidiaries who accept offers of employment with Pacific Continental Bank (“continuing employees”) will be employed subject to the same terms, conditions and policies that apply to similarly situated Pacific Continental Bank employees.

Pacific Continental Bank will recognize continuing employees’ years of service with Foundation and its subsidiaries for purposes of determining eligibility and benefit accruals under the employee welfare benefit plans of Pacific Continental Bank and entitlement to severance benefits, vacation benefits and sick leave.

under) under Pacific Continental Bank’s 401(k) Plan (except to the extent such credit would result in a duplication of benefits or a greater benefit may otherwise be provided in written employment contracts).

Waiver of Waiting Periods and Other Limitations. Pacific Continental Bank will use commercially reasonable efforts to amend its medical, dental and other welfare plans and procedures so that continuing employees and their eligible dependents who are no longer covered by Foundation Bancorp’s employee welfare benefit plans will not be required to satisfy any deductible, out-of-pocket maximum or similar requirements under the medical, dental and other welfare plans maintained by Pacific Continental Bank to the extent of amounts previously credited for such purposes under the corresponding Foundation Bancorp welfare plans, and to waive any waiting periods, pre-existing condition exclusions or limitations and requirements to show evidence of good health contained in such Pacific Continental Bank welfare plans (except to the extent any such waiting period, pre-existing condition exclusion or limitation, or requirement to show evidence of good health applied under the corresponding the Foundation Bancorp welfare plan in which the participant participated or was otherwise eligible to participate).

Severance Payments; Termination of Continuing Employees. At the effective time of the merger, except with respect to officers or employees of Foundation Bancorp with employment or other written agreements that provide for greater severance, Pacific Continental will pay to those employees of Foundation Bancorp who are not continuing employees an amount of severance pay in cash equal to two week’s salary for each year of service with Foundation Bancorp, subject to a minimum severance pay amount of four weeks’ salary. Except as otherwise provided with respect to individuals with employment or other written agreements that provide for severance payments, continuing employees who by reason of the merger become employees of Pacific Continental Bank and are thereafter terminated other than for cause will (i) if such termination occurs within the first six months after the effective date of the merger, be provided severance benefits commensurate with those provided to Foundation Bancorp employees terminated prior to the effective date, or (ii) if such termination occurs thereafter, be provided with severance benefits by Pacific Continental bank based on Pacific Continental Bank’s severance policy.

Change in Control Payments. After the effective time of the merger, Pacific Continental Corporation will make the change in control payments provided for in written employment agreements entered into between Foundation Bancorp and certain officers of Foundation Bancorp prior to the date of the merger agreement, regardless of whether such officers will continue as employees of Pacific Continental Corporation.

likely than not inconsistent with its fiduciary obligations; (iv) Foundation Bancorp provides Pacific Continental prior written notice at least three business days prior to terminating the merger agreement, which notice states that the Foundation Bancorp board has received a superior proposal and, absent any revision to the terms and conditions of the merger agreement, the Foundation Bancorp board has determined to terminate the merger agreement; (v) during this three business day period, Foundation Bancorp negotiates in good faith with Pacific Continental (to the extent Pacific Continental wishes to negotiate) to enable Pacific Continental to make an improved offer such that the acquisition proposal at issue would cease to constitute a superior proposal; (vi) at the end of this three business day period (or such earlier time that Pacific Continental advises Foundation Bancorp that it no longer wishes to negotiate to amend the merger agreement), the Foundation Bancorp board, after taking into account any modification to the terms of the merger agreement and the merger proposed by Pacific Continental, continues to believe that the acquisition proposal constitutes a superior proposal and Foundation Bancorp enters into a definitive agreement for such superior proposal; and (vii) Foundation Bancorp, prior to termination of the merger agreement, pays the applicable termination fee to Pacific Continental (see “– Effect of Termination; Expenses; Termination Fees”);

 

    by either party, if any statute, rule, regulation, judgment, decree, injunction or other order permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting consummation of the merger shall become final and non-appealable (whether before or after the approval of the merger by the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp);

 

    by either party, if the Foundation Bancorp shareholders fail to approve the merger agreement; or

 

    by Pacific Continental, if the Foundation Bancorp board (i) submits the merger agreement to its shareholders without a recommendation for approval or with any adverse conditions on, or qualifications of, such recommendation for approval; (ii) otherwise withdraws or materially and adversely modifies (or discloses its intention to withdraw or materially and adversely modify) its recommendation; or (iii) recommends to its shareholders a superior proposal.

Effect of Termination; Expenses; Termination Fees

The merger agreement generally provides that all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement (including the costs and expense of printing and mailing this proxy statement/prospectus) shall be paid for by the party incurring such expense.

If, however, the merger agreement is terminated by Pacific Continental in the event of a material breach by Foundation Bancorp of any representation, warranty or covenant which is not cured, or if the board of directors of Foundation Bancorp submits the merger agreement to its shareholders without a recommendation for approval or with any adverse conditions on, or qualifications of, such recommendation for approval, otherwise withdraws or materially and adversely modifies its recommendation or recommends to its shareholders a superior proposal, the merger agreement provides for Foundation Bancorp to pay to Pacific Continental the sum of $1,000,000.

If the merger agreement is terminated by Foundation Bancorp prior to its obtaining shareholder approval of the merger proposal in order to enter into a definitive acquisition agreement with respect to a superior proposal, the merger agreement provides for Foundation Bancorp to pay to Pacific Continental the sum of $1,000,000. In such circumstances, or in the event the merger agreement is terminated by either party due to Foundation Bancorp’s shareholders not having approved the merger agreement, and Foundation Bancorp publicly announces a proposal, plan or intention to enter into an agreement to engage in an acquisition proposal prior to twelve (12) months from the date of termination, and such acquisition proposal had been proposed prior to the date of the special meeting, then Foundation Bancorp is required to pay to Pacific Continental a termination fee of $2,000,000 (reduced by the amounts paid or payable, as provided above).

If the merger agreement is terminated by Foundation Bancorp in the event of a material breach by Pacific Continental of any representation, warranty or covenant which is not cured, the merger agreement provides for Pacific Continental to pay to Foundation Bancorp the sum of $2,000,000.

 

73


Table of Contents

If either party fails to promptly pay these fees and, in order to obtain such payment, the party entitled to the fee must commence a court action which results in a judgment against the party responsible for making such payments, the party who must pay the fee shall pay to the party owed the fee its costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses), and interest on the amount owed at a rate per year equal to the prime rate plus 300 basis points.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Foundation Bancorp nor Pacific Continental shall be relieved or released from any liabilities or damages arising out of its knowing and willful breach of any provision of this Agreement.

The merger agreement provides that each party shall pay its respective transaction expenses, including expenses related to legal, accounting and advisory services. To the extent that Foundation Bancorp’s transaction expenses exceed $1,200,000 on an after-tax basis (subject, for such purpose, to certain exclusions described below), any excess shall reduce the per share cash consideration for the transaction by the quotient of such excess divided by the total number of shares of issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Foundation Bancorp (including that number of shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock into which the Foundation Bancorp preferred stock shall be convertible).

ACCOUNTING TREATMENT

In accordance with current accounting guidance, the merger will be accounted for using the acquisition method. The result of this is that (1) the recorded assets and liabilities of Pacific Continental will be carried forward at their recorded amounts, (2) Pacific Continental’s historical operating results will be unchanged for the prior periods being reported on and (3) the assets and liabilities of Foundation Bancorp will be adjusted to fair value at the date Pacific Continental assumes control of the combined entities (the “merger date”). In addition, all identifiable intangibles will be recorded at fair value and included as part of the net assets acquired. The amount by which the purchase price, consisting of the value of cash and shares of Pacific Continental common stock to be issued to former Foundation Bancorp shareholders and former holders of Foundation Bancorp restricted stock, exceeds the fair value of the net assets of Foundation Bancorp at the merger date will be reported as goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized and will be evaluated for impairment at least annually. Definite-lived identified intangibles will be amortized over their estimated lives. The operating results of Foundation Bancorp will be included in the operating results of Pacific Continental from the merger date forward.

MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGER

The following discussion sets forth the anticipated material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the merger to U.S. holders (as defined below) of Foundation Bancorp common stock that exchange their shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock for shares of Pacific Continental common stock and cash in the merger. This discussion does not address any aspect of U.S. taxation other than U.S. federal income taxation, is not a complete analysis or listing of all potential U.S. federal income tax considerations with respect to the transactions or subsequent ownership and disposition of shares of Pacific Continental common stock received in the merger, and does not address all tax considerations that may be relevant to a holder of Foundation Bancorp common stock in light of its particular circumstances. In addition, this summary does not address the U.S. federal alternative minimum, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. state and local, or foreign tax consequences of the merger. This discussion is based upon the Code, the regulations promulgated under the Code and court and administrative rulings and decisions, all as in effect on the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. These laws may change, possibly retroactively, and any change could affect the accuracy of the statements and conclusions set forth in this discussion.

This discussion addresses only those Foundation Bancorp common shareholders that hold their shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock as a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment) and assumes that the merger and the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement will be completed in accordance with the merger agreement and as further described in this proxy statement/prospectus. Further, this discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to you in light of your particular circumstances or that may be applicable to you if you are subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws, including if you are:

 

    a bank, insurance company or other financial institution;

 

    a tax-exempt organization;

 

    a retirement plan or other tax-deferred account;

 

    an entity or arrangement treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a partnership, an S corporation or other pass-through entity (or an investor in such an entity or arrangement);

 

    a mutual fund, regulated investment company or real estate investment trust;

 

    a personal holding company;

 

    a dealer or broker in stocks and securities or currencies;

 

    a trader in securities that elects mark-to-market treatment;

 

    a holder of Foundation Bancorp common stock subject to alternative minimum provisions of the Code

 

    a holder of Foundation Bancorp common stock that received shares through the exercise of an employee stock option, an RSU, through a tax qualified retirement plan or otherwise as compensation (including any Foundation Bancorp restricted stock);

 

    a person that is not a U.S. holder (as defined below);

 

    a U.S. holder (as defined below) that has a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar;

 

    a “controlled foreign corporation,” “passive foreign investment company,” or corporation that accumulates earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax;

 

    a holder of Foundation Bancorp common stock that holds Foundation Bancorp common stock as part of a hedge, straddle, constructive sale, conversion or other risk or reduction strategy or integrated transaction;

 

    a holder of Foundation Bancorp common stock that exercises dissenters’ rights;

 

78


Table of Contents
    a retirement plan or account;

 

    a cooperative;

 

    a U.S. expatriate; or

 

    a holder of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock.

For purposes of this discussion, the term “U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of Foundation Bancorp common stock that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes

 

    an individual citizen or resident of the United States;

 

    a corporation, or entity treated as a corporation, organized in or under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

 

    (3) a trust that (1) is subject to (A) the primary supervision of a court within the United States and (B) the authority of one or more United States persons to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (2) has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a United States person ; or

 

    an estate, the income of which is includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of its source.

The U.S. federal income tax consequences with respect to holders of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock will generally depend, at least in part, upon facts and circumstances that are particular to such holders (and such owners of any such holder that is a pass-through entity). Holders of Foundation Bancorp preferred stock should consult their own tax advisors.

The U.S. federal income tax consequences to a partner in an entity or arrangement that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and that holds Foundation Bancorp common stock generally will depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partners in a partnership holding Foundation Bancorp common stock should consult their own tax advisors.

This discussion is based, and the tax opinion referred to in the following paragraphs will be based, upon the provisions of the Code, applicable Treasury Regulations, published positions of the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”), judicial decisions and other applicable authorities, as in effect on the date of the registration statement on Form S-4 of which this proxy statement/prospectus is a part or the date of the tax opinion, as the case may be. There can be no assurance that future legislative, administrative or judicial changes or interpretations, which changes or interpretations could apply retroactively, will not affect the accuracy of this discussion or the statements or conclusions set forth in the tax opinion referred to in the following paragraphs. No rulings have been or will be sought from the IRS concerning the tax consequences of the merger. The tax opinion of counsel to be received in connection with the merger will not be binding on the IRS or any court. As such, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not take a contrary position regarding the tax consequences of the merger described in this discussion or the tax opinion of counsel, or that any such contrary position would not be sustained.

Determining the actual tax consequences of the merger to you may be complex. They will depend on your specific situation and on factors that are not within the control of Foundation Bancorp or Pacific Continental. You are strongly urged to consult with your own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of the merger to you, including the effects of U.S. federal, state and local, foreign and other tax laws.

Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp have structured the merger to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. The obligation of Foundation Bancorp and Foundation Bank to complete the merger is conditioned upon the receipt of an opinion from Sidley Austin LLP, counsel to

 

79


Table of Contents

Foundation Bancorp, dated the closing date of the merger, to the effect that the merger will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. In rendering the opinion, Sidley Austin LLP may require and rely upon representations and covenants, including those contained in certificates of officers of Pacific Continental, Foundation Bancorp and others, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to such counsel. This opinion will not be binding on the IRS or the courts. Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp have not requested and do not intend to request any ruling from the IRS as to the United States federal income tax consequences of the merger.

Assuming that the merger is completed according to the terms of the merger agreement and based upon facts, factual representations and assumptions contained in certificates of officers of Pacific Continental and Foundation Bancorp, all of which must continue to be true and accurate in all material respects through the effective time of the merger and must be repeated in updated certificates executed as of such effective time, and subject to the applicability as of such effective time of the assumptions, qualifications and limitations contained in this “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger” section of this proxy statement/prospectus and in their respective federal income tax opinions filed herewith, it is the opinion of each of Sidley Austin LLP, counsel to Foundation Bancorp, and Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP, counsel to Pacific Continental, that the merger will qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Based solely on the information, and subject to the assumptions, qualifications and limitations set forth herein and in their respective federal income tax opinions filed herewith, this discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the merger, to the extent such discussion expresses conclusions as to the application of U.S. federal income tax law, constitutes the opinions of Sidley Austin, LLP, counsel to Foundation Bancorp, and Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP, counsel to Pacific Continental.

Tax Consequences of the Merger Generally

The following discussion expressly assumes that the transaction will be consummated in accordance with the provisions of the merger agreement and as described in this proxy statement/prospectus, and no transaction or condition described therein and affecting this opinion (including the opinion conditions described in the previous paragraph) will be waived by any party. Thus, upon exchanging your Foundation Bancorp common stock for Pacific Continental common stock and cash, you generally will recognize gain (but not loss) in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) the amount of gain realized (i.e., the excess of the sum of the amount of cash (excluding any cash received in lieu of a fractional share which is discussed below) and the fair market value of the Pacific Continental common stock received pursuant to the merger over your adjusted tax basis in your shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock surrendered) and (2) the amount of cash received pursuant to the merger (excluding any cash received in lieu of a fractional share).

If you acquired different blocks of Foundation Bancorp common stock at different times or different prices, you should consult your tax advisor regarding the manner in which gain or loss should be determined.

Any recognized gain generally will be long-term capital gain if, as of the effective date of the merger, your holding period with respect to the Foundation Bancorp common stock surrendered exceeds one year. Long-term capital gain of certain non-corporate U.S. holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock, including individuals, is generally taxed at preferential rates. In some cases, if a holder actually or constructively owns Pacific Continental common stock other than Pacific Continental common stock received pursuant to the merger, the recognized gain could be treated as having the effect of a distribution under the tests set forth in Section 302 of the Code, in which case such gain could be treated as dividend income to the extent of the holder’s ratable share of accumulated earnings and profits as calculated for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Because the possibility of dividend treatment depends upon each holder’s particular circumstances, including the application of constructive ownership rules, holders of Foundation Bancorp common stock should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the foregoing rules to their particular circumstances.

 

80


Table of Contents

The aggregate tax basis in the shares of Pacific Continental common stock that you receive in the merger, including any fractional share interests deemed received and sold as described below, will equal your aggregate adjusted tax basis in the Foundation Bancorp common stock you surrender, reduced by the amount of cash received (excluding any cash received in lieu of a fractional share) and increased by the amount of gain, if any, recognized by you (excluding any gain recognized with respect to cash received in lieu of a fractional share) on the exchange. Your holding period for the shares of Pacific Continental common stock that you receive in the merger (including a fractional share interest deemed received and sold as described below) will include your holding period for the shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock that you surrender in the exchange.

Cash In Lieu of a Fractional Share

If you receive cash in lieu of a fractional share of Pacific Continental common stock, you will be treated as having received the fractional share of Pacific Continental common stock pursuant to the merger and then as having sold that fractional share of Pacific Continental common stock for cash. As a result, you generally will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount of cash received and the basis allocable to your fractional share of Pacific Continental common stock. This gain or loss generally will be capital gain or loss, and will be long-term capital gain or loss if, as of the effective date of the merger, the holding period for the Foundation Bancorp common stock surrendered therefor is greater than one year. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Additional Tax on Net Investment Income

A U.S. holder that is an individual or estate, or a trust that does not fall into a special class of trusts that is exempt from such tax, is subject to a 3.8% additional tax on the lesser of (1) the U.S. holder’s “net investment income” (or “undistributed net investment income” in the case of an estate or trust) for the relevant taxable year and (2) the excess of the U.S. holder’s modified adjusted gross income for the taxable year over a certain threshold (which in the case of individuals is between $125,000 and $250,000, depending on the individual’s circumstances). For this purpose, net investment income generally will include dividend income and net gain recognized with respect to a disposition of shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock pursuant to the merger, unless such dividend income or net gain is derived in the ordinary course of the conduct of a trade or business (other than a trade or business that consists of certain passive or trading activities). If you are a U.S. holder that is an individual, estate or trust, please consult your tax advisors regarding the applicability of the additional tax on net investment income with respect to your disposition of shares of Foundation Bancorp common stock pursuant to the merger.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

If you are a non-corporate holder of Foundation Bancorp common stock you may be subject to information reporting and backup withholding (currently at a rate of 28%) on any cash payments you receive. You generally will not be subject to backup withholding, however, if you provide proof of an applicable exemption or you furnish your taxpayer identification number, and otherwise comply with all applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules.

Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will generally be allowed as a refund or credit against your U.S. federal income tax liability, provided you timely furnish the required information to the IRS.

A U.S. holder of Foundation Bancorp common stock who receives Pacific Continental common stock as a result of the merger will be required to retain records pertaining to the merger. This summary of material U.S. federal income tax consequences is for general information only and is not tax advice. You are urged to consult your tax advisor with respect to the application of U.S. federal income tax laws to your particular situation as well as any tax consequences arising under the U.S. federal estate or gift tax rules, or under the laws of any state, local, foreign or other taxing jurisdiction.

COMPARISON OF SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS

Foundation Bancorp is incorporated under the laws of the State of Washington, and the rights of the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, Foundation Bancorp’s articles of incorporation, as amended (the Foundation Bancorp Articles), and its bylaws (the Foundation Bancorp Bylaws). As a result of the merger, Foundation Bancorp shareholders who receive shares of Pacific Continental common stock will become Pacific Continental shareholders.

Pacific Continental is incorporated under the laws of the State of Oregon, and the rights of Pacific Continental shareholders are governed by the laws of the State of Oregon, as well as by Pacific Continental’s second amended and restated articles of incorporation (the Pacific Continental Articles) and its amended and restated bylaws (the Pacific Continental Bylaws). Thus, following the merger, the rights of Foundation Bancorp shareholders who become Pacific Continental shareholders in the merger will no longer be governed by the Foundation Bancorp Articles and Bylaws and instead will be governed by the Pacific Continental Articles and Bylaws.

Set forth below is a summary comparison of material differences between the rights of Foundation Bancorp shareholders under the Foundation Bancorp Articles and the Foundation Bancorp Bylaws (left column), and the rights of Foundation Bancorp shareholders under the Pacific Continental Articles and Pacific Continental Bylaws (right column). The summary set forth below is not intended to provide a comprehensive discussion of each company’s governing documents. For more complete information, you should read the full text of the Foundation Bancorp Articles and Bylaws, the Pacific Continental Articles and Bylaws, and the relevant sections of the RCW and the ORS.

This change is to be effective for director elections beginning at Pacific Continental’s next annual meeting.

Anti-Takeover Provisions and Other Shareholder Protections
The Washington Business Corporation Act contains provisions intended to deter or prevent the hostile takeover of Washington corporations and foreign corporations that have substantial economic ties to Washington. The anti-takeover statute generally prohibits a target corporation from engaging in certain significant business transactions with an acquiring    In addition, Oregon law prohibits, except under certain circumstances, a “business combination” (defined broadly to include mergers or consolidations, certain sales, sales of assets, liquidation or dissolution, and other specified transactions) between a corporation and an “interested shareholder” (defined generally as a

A significant business transaction includes, for example, a merger or consolidation of the target corporation with the acquiring person, the substantial sale of the target corporation’s assets to the acquiring person, the termination of 5 percent or more of the Washington employees of the target corporation, and the liquidation or dissolution of a target corporation proposed by the acquiring person.   

person or group that directly or indirectly controls, or has the right to control, the voting or disposition of 15% or more of outstanding voting stock) within three years of the shareholder becoming an interested shareholder.

 

A business combination between a corporation and an interested shareholder is prohibited unless (1) prior to the date the person became an interested shareholder, the board of directors approved either the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the person becoming an interested shareholder, (2) upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the person becoming an interested shareholder, that person owns at least 85% of the corporation’s voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction is commenced (excluding shares owned by persons who are both directors and officers and shares owned by employee stock plans in which participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer), or (3) the business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized by the affirmative vote (at an annual or special meeting and not by written consent) of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested shareholder.

   The Oregon Control Share Act, codified at ORS Sections 60.801 through 60.816, restricts a shareholder’s ability to vote shares of stock acquired in certain transactions not approved by the board of directors that cause the acquiring person to gain control of a voting position exceeding one-fifth, one-third, or one-half of the votes entitled to be cast in an election of directors. Shares acquired in a control share acquisition have no voting rights except as authorized by a vote of the shareholders. If the acquiror’s control shares are allowed to have voting rights and represent a majority or more of all voting power, shareholders who do not vote in favor of voting rights for the control shares will have the right to receive the appraised fair value of their shares, which may not be less than the highest price paid per share by the acquiror for the control shares.

Amendment of Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws

Under Washington law, an amendment to the articles of incorporation is generally approved if, approved by the board of directors and two-thirds of the shareholders entitled to vote on the amendment.

 

Under Washington law, a corporation’s board of directors may amend or repeal the corporation’s bylaws unless the corporation’s articles of incorporation or Washington law reserves the power to amend the bylaws exclusively to the shareholders in whole or in part, or the shareholders, in amending or repealing a particular bylaw, provide expressly that the board of directors may not amend or repeal that bylaw. A corporation’s shareholders may also amend or repeal the bylaws.

 

The Foundation Bancorp Bylaws may be altered, amended or repealed and any new bylaws may be adopted by the affirmative vote of 60% of the board of directors or by the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of shares entitled to vote and present, in person or by proxy, at the next meeting of shareholders following such action.

  

Under Oregon law, an amendment to the articles of incorporation is generally approved if, upon approval by the board of directors and referral to the shareholders, a quorum exists and the votes cast favoring the amendment exceed the votes cast opposing the amendment, unless the amendment would create dissenters’ rights, in which case a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on the amendment is required to approve the amendment.

 

Under Oregon law, a corporation’s board of directors may amend or repeal the corporation’s bylaws unless the corporation’s articles of incorporation or Oregon law reserves the power to amend the bylaws exclusively to the shareholders in whole or in part, or the shareholders, in amending or repealing a particular bylaw, provide expressly that the board of directors may not amend or repeal that bylaw. A corporation’s shareholders may also amend or repeal the bylaws. The Pacific Continental Bylaws are consistent with the statutory requirements.

 

The Pacific Continental Bylaws may be altered, amended or repealed by a majority vote of the board of directors at any regular meeting of the board of directors or any special meeting called for that purpose.

Number of Directors; Term; Classes

The Foundation Bancorp Articles and the Foundation Bancorp Bylaws provide that the number of directors will not be fewer than five nor more than twenty, with the exact number determined from time to time by majority vote of the Foundation Bancorp board of directors. The Foundation Bancorp board currently has eight directors.

 

The Foundation Bancorp board is divided into three classes, as nearly equal in number as possible, with each class standing for election every third year and each director serving a three-year term.

  

The Pacific Continental Articles and the Pacific Continental Bylaws provide that the number of directors will not be fewer than six nor more than fifteen directors, with the exact number determined from time to time by resolution of the Pacific Continental board. The Pacific Continental Board currently has eleven directors.

 

The Pacific Continental board is not divided into classes and directors each serve a one-year term.

Removal of Directors
Washington law provides that the shareholders of a corporation may remove directors with or without cause unless the articles of incorporation provide that directors may be removed only for cause. A director may be removed only if the number of votes cast to remove the    The rights of the shareholders of Pacific Continental are subject to similar provisions of Oregon law regarding removal of directors as the rights of the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp, and the Pacific Continental Articles and Bylaws do not contain

The meeting notice must state that the purpose or one of the purposes, of the meeting is removal of the director. The Foundation Bancorp Articles and Foundation Bancorp Bylaws do not contain additional provisions relating to the removal of directors.    additional provisions relating to the removal of directors.
Filling Vacancies on the Board of Directors

Washington law provides generally that vacancies on a board of directors, including vacancies resulting from an increase in the number of directors may be filled by the shareholders or the board of directors of the corporation (and if the directors remaining in office constitute fewer than a quorum of the board, by the affirmative vote of a majority of all the directors remaining in office).

The Foundation Bancorp Bylaws provide that vacancies may be filled by the affirmative vote of sixty (60%) of the remaining directors of the Foundation Bancorp board.

   Subject to Oregon law, vacancies on the Pacific Continental board may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors, though less than a quorum, at a meeting of the Pacific Continental board after the vacancy occurs. Each director so elected and approved will hold office until the next shareholder meeting at which directors are elected and until such director’s qualified successor is elected and accepts office.
Limitation of Directors’ and Officers’ Liability
Washington law provides that a corporation may eliminate or limit the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for conduct as a director, provided that such provisions shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director for (1) acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct by a director or a knowing violation of law by a director; (2) any unlawful distribution; or (3) any transaction from which the director will personally receive a benefit in money, property, or services to which the director is not legally entitled.    The rights of the shareholders of Pacific Continental are subject to similar provisions of Oregon law regarding limitations of director and officer liability as the rights of the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp.
The Foundation Bancorp Articles restate this standard and provide that, to the greatest extent permissible by law, no director shall be personally liable to Foundation Bancorp or its shareholders for monetary damages.    The Pacific Continental Articles provide that no current or former director will be personally liable to Pacific Continental or its shareholders for monetary damages unless a court having jurisdiction, and from which there is no further right to appeal, determines that such director’s or former director’s acts or omissions involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, participation in any transaction from which the person will personally receive a benefit in money, property, or services to which the person is not legally entitled, an unlawful distribution under the Oregon Bank Act, and conduct for which the person is adjudged liable to Pacific Continental.

   The Pacific Continental Articles provide similar limitations of liability for outside directors of subsidiaries of which at least 80% of the voting interests are held beneficially by Pacific Continental for suits brought directly by Pacific Continental as a shareholder of such subsidiary or derivatively on behalf of such subsidiary (or by any Pacific Continental shareholder double-derivatively on behalf of Pacific Continental and such subsidiary).
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Under Washington law, a corporation may indemnify a director for actions taken in good faith and which the director reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation. In the case of a criminal proceeding, the director must not have had any reasonable cause to believe the conduct was unlawful. A director may not be indemnified in connection with a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation in which the director was found liable to the corporation, or a proceeding in which the director was found to have improperly received a personal benefit. Washington law further provides for mandatory indemnification of officers and directors for reasonable expenses incurred when the indemnified party is wholly successful in the defense of the proceeding. A corporation may indemnify officers to the same extent as directors.    The rights of the shareholders of Pacific Continental are subject to similar provisions of Oregon law regarding indemnification of directors and officers as the rights of the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp.

The Foundation Bancorp Bylaws grant a right to indemnification to any person who was or is a party to or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding (other than an action by or in the right of the company, discussed below) by reason of or arising from the fact that the person is or was a director or officer of Foundation Bancorp or one of its subsidiaries, or is or was serving at the request of Foundation Bancorp as a director, officer, partner, trustee, partner, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, penalties, excise taxes assessed with respect to any employee benefit plan and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred therewith.

  

The Pacific Continental Articles grant a right to indemnification to any person who is, or is threatened to be made, a party to any action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, and whether formal or informal, and whether by or in the right of Pacific Continental or its shareholders or by any other party, by reason of the fact that the person:

 

(1) is or was a director of Pacific Continental;

 

(2) is or was simultaneously both an officer and director of Pacific Continental;

 

(3) while not principally employed by Pacific Continental or any subsidiary at least 80% of which is controlled by Pacific Continental, is or was a director or manager of an at least 80% controlled subsidiary of Pacific Continental; or

It is PCC’s current expectation, subject to PCC Board approval, that the individuals to be designated to serve on and appointed to the PCC Board and the PCB Board will be Thomas Ellison and Duane Woods. The Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of PCC will be the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation. From and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall possess all the rights, powers, privileges and franchises and be subject to all of the obligations, liabilities, restrictions and disabilities of Foundation Bancorp and PCC.

2.1.2 Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 8, the Merger shall become effective upon the occurrence of the filing of the Holding Company Plan of Merger with the Oregon Secretary of State as required under the OBCA and the filing of the Holding Company Articles of Merger with the Washington Secretary of State as required under the WBCA, and as of the date set forth in the Certificate of Merger issued by the Oregon Secretary of State, or such later date and time as may be set forth in such filing (the time the Merger becomes effective on the Effective Date being referred to as the “Effective Time”).

2.1.5 Election Procedures.

(a) Election Form. An election form, in such form as PCC and Foundation Bancorp shall reasonably agree (the “Election Form”), shall be mailed to the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp on or about the thirtieth (30th) day prior to the anticipated Effective Date. Each Election Form shall permit the holder (or in the case of nominee record holders, the beneficial owner through proper instructions and documentation), subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.1.5(c), (i) to elect to receive PCC Common Stock with respect to all of such holder’s Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and/or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock (a “Stock Election”), (ii) to elect to receive cash with respect to all of such holder’s Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and/or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock (a “Cash Election”), (iii) to elect to receive cash with respect to 30% of such holder’s shares and shares of PCC Common Stock with respect to such holder’s remaining 70% of shares (a “Mixed Election”) or (iv) to indicate that such holder makes no such election with respect to such holder’s shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock (a “Non-Election”). Shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock as to which a Cash Election has been made (including pursuant to a Mixed Election) are referred to herein as “Cash Election Shares.” Shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock as to which a Stock Election has been made (including pursuant to a Mixed Election) are referred to herein as “Stock Election Shares.” Shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock as to which no election has been made are referred to herein as “No-Election Shares.” Nominee record holders who hold Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock on behalf of multiple beneficial owners shall indicate how many of the shares held by them are Stock Election Shares, Cash Election Shares and No-Election Shares based upon the actions of the beneficial owners thereof. If a shareholder either (i) does not submit and continue to maintain through the Election Deadline a properly completed Election Form or (ii) fails to perfect his, her or its right to dissent under the WBCA, the shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and/or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock held by such shareholder shall be designated No-Election Shares. Any Dissenting Shares shall be deemed to be Cash Election Shares and, with respect to such shares, the holders thereof shall in no event be classified as holders of Reallocated Stock Shares (as defined herein).

(b) Election Deadline. The term “Election Deadline” shall mean 5:00 p.m., Pacific Time, on the Business Day that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Effective Date, or such other date as PCC and Foundation Bancorp shall mutually agree upon.

(c) Effective Election. Any election to receive PCC Common Stock and/or cash shall have been properly made only if the Exchange Agent shall have actually received a properly completed Election Form by the Election Deadline. Any Election Form may be revoked or changed by the person submitting such Election Form to the Exchange Agent (or any other Person to whom the subject shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock of such holder are subsequently transferred) by written notice to the Exchange Agent only if such written notice is actually received by the Exchange Agent at or prior to the Election Deadline. The Exchange Agent shall have reasonable discretion to determine when any election, modification or revocation is received, whether any such election, modification or revocation has been properly made and to disregard immaterial defects in any Election Form, and any good faith decisions of the Exchange Agent regarding such matters shall be binding and conclusive. Neither PCC nor the Exchange Agent shall be under any obligation to notify any person of any defect in an Election Form.

(d) Allocation. The Exchange Agent shall effect the allocation among holders of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and/or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock of rights to receive PCC Common Stock and/or cash in the Merger in accordance with the Election Forms as follows:

(i) Cash Consideration Undersubscribed. If the number of Cash Election Shares times the Per Share Cash Consideration is less than an amount equal to the Aggregate Cash Consideration, then:

(1) all Cash Election Shares (subject to Section 2.1.6 with respect to Dissenters’ Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive cash;

(2) No-Election Shares shall then be deemed to be Cash Election Shares to the extent necessary to have the total number of Cash Election Shares (including Dissenters’ Shares) times the Per Share Cash Consideration equal the Aggregate Cash Consideration. If less than all of the No-Election Shares are so required to be treated as Cash Election Shares, then the Exchange Agent shall select which No-Election Shares shall be treated as Cash Election Shares in such manner as to maximize the number of No-Election Shares treated as subject to a Mixed Election, and all remaining No-Election Shares shall thereafter be treated as Stock Election Shares;

(3) if all of the No-Election Shares are treated as Cash Election Shares under the preceding subsection and the total number of Cash Election Shares times the Per Share Cash Consideration is still less than the Aggregate Cash Consideration, then the Exchange Agent shall convert on a pro rata basis as described below in Section 2.1.5(e) a sufficient number of Stock Election Shares into Cash Election Shares (“Reallocated Cash Shares”) such that the sum of the number of Cash Election Shares plus the number of Reallocated Cash Shares times the Per Share Cash Consideration equals the Aggregate Cash Consideration (provided that Stock Election Shares subject to a Mixed Election shall be treated as Reallocated Cash Shares only if the Stock Election Shares not subject to a Mixed Election are insufficient in number); and all Reallocated Cash Shares will be converted into the right to receive cash; and

(4) the Stock Election Shares which are not Reallocated Cash Shares shall be converted into the right to receive PCC Common Stock.

(ii) Cash Consideration Oversubscribed. If the number of Cash Election Shares times the Per Share Cash Consideration is greater than the Aggregate Cash Consideration, then:

(1) all Stock Election Shares and a sufficient number of No-Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive PCC Common Stock; provided that the Exchange Agent shall select which No-Election Shares shall be treated as Stock Election Shares in such a manner as to maximize the number of No-Election Shares treated as subject to a Mixed Election;

(2) if, after following the procedures in Section 2.1.5(d)(ii)(1), the Cash Consideration is still over-subscribed, then the Exchange Agent shall convert on a pro rata basis as described below in Section 2.1.5(e) a sufficient number of Cash Election Shares (excluding any Dissenters’ Shares) (“Reallocated Stock Shares”) such that the number of remaining Cash Election Shares (including Dissenters’ Shares) times the Per Share Cash Consideration equals the Aggregate Cash Consideration (provided that Cash Election Shares subject to a Mixed Election shall be treated as Reallocated Stock Shares only if, and to the extent that, the Cash Election Shares not subject to a Mixed Election are insufficient in number); and all Reallocated Stock Shares shall be converted into the right to receive PCC Common Stock; and

(3) the Cash Election Shares (subject to Section 2.1.6 with respect to Dissenters’ Shares) which are not Reallocated Stock Shares shall be converted into the right to receive cash.

(iii) Cash Consideration Satisfied. If the number of Cash Election Shares times the Per Share Cash Consideration is equal to the Aggregate Cash Consideration, then subparagraphs (d)(i) and

 

A-12


Table of Contents

(ii) above shall not apply and all Cash Election Shares (subject to Section 2.1.6 with respect to Dissenters’ Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive cash and all No-Election Shares and all Stock Election Shares will be converted into the right to receive PCC Common Stock.

(e) Pro Rata Reallocations. In the event that the Exchange Agent is required pursuant to Section 2.1.5(d)(i)(3) to convert some Stock Election Shares into Reallocated Cash Shares, each holder of Stock Election Shares shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the total Reallocated Cash Shares. In the event the Exchange Agent is required pursuant to Section 2.1.5(d)(ii)(2) to convert some Cash Election Shares into Reallocated Stock Shares, each holder of Cash Election Shares shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the total Reallocated Stock Shares.

(f) Adjustment Per Tax Opinion. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2 to the contrary, if Sidley Austin LLP and tax counsel to PCC reasonably determine that the amount of cash payable pursuant to Section 2.1.5 (prior to the application of this Section 2.1.5(f)) exceeds the maximum amount of cash that would enable Sidley Austin LLP to deliver the tax opinion referred to in Section 8.3(d) solely because the Merger would not satisfy the “continuity-of-interest” requirements of Section 368 of the Code (and relevant Treasury Regulations and other applicable authority), the amount of cash to be delivered (but for this Section 2.1.5(f)) with respect to each share of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock, that are convertible, in whole or in part, into a right to receive cash, shall be reduced to the minimum extent necessary (and PCC shall deliver with respect to each such share of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock, in lieu of the reduced amount of cash, that number of shares of PCC Common Stock having an aggregate value (based on the closing price of the PCC Common Stock on the Closing Date) equal to the reduced amount of cash) so that, in the reasonable determination of Sidley Austin LLP and tax counsel to PCC, Sidley Austin LLP shall be able to deliver the tax opinion referred to in Section 8.3(d). In making its determination, Sidley Austin LLP and tax counsel to PCC shall take into account cash in lieu of fractional shares, Dissenters’ Shares, payments made by Foundation Bancorp to its shareholders as redemption proceeds or as extraordinary dividends, the Cumulative Cash Dividend, shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock to be excluded from the relevant calculations, and such other considerations as Sidley Austin LLP and tax counsel to PCC reasonably deem necessary to take into account for purposes of making the Merger satisfy such “continuity-of-interest” requirements.

2.1.6 Dissenters’ Shares. All shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock that are held by a “dissenter” within the meaning of RCW §§ 23B.13.010 et seq. (“Dissenters’ Shares”) shall be converted into the right to receive payment with respect thereto in accordance with the provisions of the WBCA and shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive the Merger Consideration unless and until such shares have lost their status as Dissenters’ Shares under RCW §§ 23B.13.010 et seq. at which time each such share shall be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration. As of the Effective Time, all such shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock, and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock (which are not Dissenters’ Shares) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration to be paid in accordance with Section 2.2.

2.1.7 Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock.

(a) Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock. Foundation Bancorp shall take all actions necessary to cause each outstanding share of Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock to be fully vested so that all restrictions on the Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock shall lapse as of the Effective Time, and such shares shall be entitled to the election procedures set forth in Section 2.1.5.

(b) Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock. Each share of the Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, without the consent of the holders thereof, become convertible into the right to receive the Merger Consideration with respect to 1,500,000 shares of Foundation

2.2 Exchange Procedures.

(a) Preliminary Mailing of Transmittal Material. Provided that Foundation Bancorp has delivered, or caused to be delivered, to the Exchange Agent all information which is reasonably necessary for the Exchange Agent to perform its obligations as specified herein, the Exchange Agent shall, and PCC shall cause the Exchange Agent to, mail or deliver to each holder of record of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and/or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock, simultaneously with the mailing or delivery of the Election Form, a form of letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to such Certificate(s) theretofore representing shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock, including certificates representing shares of Bank Common Stock that have been converted to shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock (collectively, the “Foundation Bancorp Certificates”) or book-entry shares (“Book-Entry Shares”), as relevant, shall pass only upon proper delivery of such Foundation Bancorp Certificate(s) or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent advising such holder of the procedure for surrendering to the Exchange Agent) such Foundation Bancorp Certificate(s) or Book-Entry Shares in exchange for the consideration to which such holder may be entitled pursuant to Section 2.1.4 hereof.

(c) PCC Deliveries. At least one (1) day prior to the Closing, for the benefit of the holders of Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, (i) PCC shall deliver to the Exchange Agent evidence of shares in book entry form, representing the number of shares of PCC Common Stock issuable to the holders of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock as part of the Merger Consideration and (ii) PCC shall deliver, or cause PCB to deliver, to the Exchange Agent, the cash portion of the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to this Section 2, each to be delivered to the holders of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock in exchange for their Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares as provided in this Section 2. The Exchange Agent shall not be entitled to vote or exercise any rights of ownership with respect to the shares of PCC Common Stock held by it from time to time hereunder, except that it shall receive and hold all dividends or other distributions paid or distributed with respect to such shares for the account of the Persons entitled thereto.

(d) Exchange Agent Deliveries.

(i) After completion of the allocation referred to in Section 2.1.5(d) and upon the Closing, each holder of a Foundation Bancorp Certificate or Certificates or Book-Entry Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time who has properly surrendered, or has caused to be surrendered, such Foundation Bancorp Certificate or Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of such Certificates) or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent will be entitled to evidence of issuance in book entry form, or upon written request of such holder a

(e) No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, neither certificates nor scrip for fractional shares of PCC Common Stock shall be issued in the Merger. Each holder of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock who otherwise would have been entitled to a fraction of a share of PCC Common Stock (after taking into account all Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares delivered by such holder) shall receive in lieu thereof cash (without interest) in an amount determined by multiplying the fractional share interest to which such holder would otherwise be entitled by the Per Share Cash Consideration.

4.23 Employee Benefits.

(a) Section 4.23(a) of the Foundation Bancorp Disclosure Schedule contains a true and complete list of each Foundation Bancorp Plan. “Foundation Bancorp Plan” shall mean any Employee Benefit Plan sponsored, maintained, contributed to or required to be contributed to, by Foundation Bancorp, or as to which Foundation Bancorp has or may have any liability or obligation, contingent or otherwise, whether written or not.

(b) Except as disclosed in Section 4.23(b) of the Foundation Bancorp Disclosure Schedule or as contemplated by this Agreement, there are no Contracts, arrangements or commitments maintained or agreed to by either Foundation Bancorp, or provisions of any Foundation Bancorp Plans that provide for or could result in the payment to any current or former Foundation Bancorp employee, officer or director of any money or other property rights, or accelerate the vesting or payment of such amounts or rights to any such person, or result in an increase in benefits otherwise payable under any Foundation Bancorp Plan, as a result of the execution of this Agreement or the consummation of transactions contemplated by this Agreement (whether alone or upon the occurrence of any additional or subsequent events). No such payment or acceleration set forth in Section 4.23(b) of the Foundation Bancorp Disclosure Schedule constitutes or could reasonably be characterized as an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Code Section 280G, and Foundation Bancorp has made available to PCC true and complete copies of Code Section 280G calculations prepared with respect to each disqualified individual in connection with such transactions. Foundation Bancorp does not have any obligation to reimburse any person for any income tax or penalty that would otherwise be payable by that person under Code Section 4999 or 409A.

(c) Except as set forth in Section 4.23(c) of the Foundation Bancorp Disclosure Schedule, neither Foundation Bancorp nor any entity which is considered one employer with Foundation Bancorp as determined under Section 414(a), (b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Code or Section 4001 of ERISA (“ERISA Affiliate”) has maintained, contributed to, or been required to contribute to, a single-employer pension benefit plan that is subject to title I, subtitle B, part 3 of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code in the six (6) years prior to the date hereof.

Each Foundation Bancorp Plan that is intended to be tax-qualified has a currently effective favorable determination or may rely on a currently effective favorable opinion from the Internal Revenue Service as to the Plan’s qualification under the Code, and to the Knowledge of Foundation Bancorp, no circumstance exists that is likely to result in the loss of such qualified status under Section 401(a) of the Code. No Foundation Bancorp Plan is a “multiemployer pension plan,” as such term is defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA, a “multiple employer plan,” as described in Section 413(c) of the Code, or a “multiple employer welfare arrangement,” as such term is defined in Section 3(40)(A) of ERISA. All contributions or other amounts payable by Foundation Bancorp as of the date hereof with respect to each Foundation Bancorp Plan in respect of current or prior plan years have been timely paid when due, or accrued in accordance with GAAP, and there are no pending or, to the Knowledge of Foundation Bancorp, threatened or anticipated, claims (other than routine claims for benefits) by, on behalf of or against any Foundation Bancorp Plan, or any trusts related thereto.

To the Knowledge of Foundation Bancorp, neither Foundation Bancorp nor any ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a transaction in connection with which Foundation Bancorp or any ERISA Affiliate could be subject to either a civil penalty assessed pursuant to Section 409 or 502(i) of ERISA or a tax imposed pursuant to Section 4975 or 4976 of the Code.

Part 364. Neither Foundation Bancorp nor any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary has any Knowledge of any facts or circumstances that would indicate that any non-public customer information has been disclosed to or accessed by an unauthorized third party in a manner that would cause Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary to undertake any material remedial action. Foundation Bancorp and the Foundation Bancorp Subsidiaries have adopted and implemented an anti-money laundering program that contains adequate and appropriate customer identification verification procedures that comply with Section 326 of the Patriot Act, and such anti-money laundering program meets the requirements in all material respects of Section 352 of the Patriot Act and the regulations thereunder.

do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or desirable, or advisable under applicable laws, so as to permit consummation of the Mergers as promptly as practicable and otherwise to enable consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8 hereof, and shall cooperate fully with Foundation Bancorp to that end.

7.7 Employee Matters.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, PCC will honor in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately before the Effective Time, and make the payments provided for in accordance with the terms (other than a requirement of termination of employment) of, all written employment agreements entered into prior to the date hereof and set forth on Section 7.7(a) of the Foundation Bancorp Disclosure Schedule, regardless of whether such officers who are party to such agreements will be Continuing Employees, subject to any limitations imposed under applicable law or by any Regulatory Authority; provided, however, that such officers have entered into written agreements with PCC, in a form mutually acceptable to Foundation Bancorp and PCC, to release PCC and the PCC Subsidiaries and their predecessors in interest from any liabilities arising out of or related to such payments. Nothing herein shall be construed as creating an obligation on PCC to reimburse or gross up any officer or other employee for any income tax or penalty, including as a result of any “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code or any “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, that would otherwise by payable by the officer, employee, or Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary.

(b) Prior to the Effective Date, PCC shall determine which of the employees of Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary will be offered employment by PCB immediately following the Effective Date (the employees who accept such offers of employment, “Continuing Employees”) and shall give notice thereof to Foundation Bancorp. Effective no later than immediately prior to the Effective Time, Foundation Bancorp shall terminate the employment of each of these employees of Foundation Bancorp and the Foundation Bancorp Subsidiaries who PCC notifies Foundation Bancorp in writing at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Effective Time that PCC does not intend to offer continued employment with PCB after the Effective Date. Such employees to whom PCC does not intend to offer continued employment, and whose employment is therefore terminated, along with any Continuing Employee whose employment is terminated during the six (6) month period following the Effective Time (other than for cause), shall be entitled to receive the benefits and severance pay in accordance with Section 7.7(i) below. The employment of the Continuing Employees shall be subject to the terms, conditions and policies of employment that apply to similarly situated employees of PCB. To the extent that the Continuing Employees do not continue to be covered after the Effective Time by the Foundation Bancorp Plans that provide medical, dental and other welfare benefits (the “Foundation Bancorp Welfare Plans”), PCC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to amend its medical, dental and other welfare plans (the “PCB Welfare Plans”) and procedures so that (1) for the plan year including the Effective Date, the Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents shall not be required to satisfy any deductible, out-of-pocket maximum or similar requirements under the PCB Welfare Plans to the Continuing Employees to the extent of amounts previously credited for such purposes under the corresponding the Foundation Bancorp Welfare Plans and (2) any waiting periods, pre-existing condition exclusions or limitations and requirements to show evidence of good health contained in such PCB Welfare Plans shall be waived with respect to the Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents (except to the extent any such waiting period, pre-existing condition exclusion or limitation, or requirement to show evidence of good health applied under the corresponding the Foundation Bancorp Welfare Plan in which the participant participated or was otherwise eligible to participate). Continuing Employees will be given credit for their service with Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary for purposes of eligibility under the PCB Welfare Plans (or, if continued by PCB, the Foundation Bancorp Welfare Plans).

(c) Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.7(a) with respect to individuals with employment or other written agreements that provide for severance payments or Section 7.7(b), Continuing Employees whose employment is thereafter terminated other than for cause (“cause” shall include failure to meet conduct or

 

A-53

employment standards) will be provided with severance benefits by PCB based on the PCB Severance Policy. A description of the current PCB Severance Policy is included in Section 7.7(c) of the PCC Disclosure Schedule. Continuing Employees will be given credit for their service with Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary for purposes of determining the amount of severance benefits under the PCB Severance Policy.

(d) For purposes of vacation benefits and sick leave, service accrued with Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary shall be credited for determining a Foundation Bancorp employee’s eligibility and length of vacation and sick leave under the PCB vacation or sick leave plan, and any vacation or sick leave taken prior to the Effective Date will be subtracted under the PCB plan from the Foundation Bancorp employee’s vacation or sick leave entitlement for the calendar year in which the Effective Date occurs to the extent permitted under applicable law. A Foundation Bancorp employee’s sick leave accrued time and vacation accrued time prior to the Effective Date will be carried forward, with prospective accruals based upon PCB vacation or sick leave plans or policies.

(e) For purposes of eligibility to participate in and vesting in (but not benefit accruals under) any cash or deferred arrangement maintained by PCB that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(k) of the Code (the “PCB 401(k) Plan”), Continuing Employees shall receive credit for length of service accrued with Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary and (except to the extent such credit would result in a duplication of benefits or a greater benefit may otherwise be provided in written employment contracts) shall be entitled to participate in such plans, arrangements and similar benefits then made available to similarly situated PCB employees effective as of the Effective Time.

(f) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (1) neither PCC nor PCB is obligated to continue to employ any employee of Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary for any period of time following the Effective Date, (2) nothing in this Agreement shall limit the ability of PCC or any PCC Subsidiary to revise, amend or terminate any Employee Benefit Plan, PCB Welfare Plan or other employee benefit plan, program or policy from time to time, (3) nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as an amendment of any Employee Benefit Plans or PCB Welfare Plan, and (4) no provision of this Section 7.7 shall create any third party beneficiary rights in any employee, director, former employee or former director (including any beneficiary or dependent of such employee, director, former employee or former director) of Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary in respect of continued employment or service (or resumed employment or service) or any other matter.

(g) Prior to the Effective Date, Foundation Bancorp shall take all actions necessary or appropriate to terminate the Foundation Bancorp Stock Plan and the qualified cash or deferred arrangement maintained by Foundation Bancorp (the “Foundation Bancorp 401(k) Plan”), including adoption of an appropriate resolution of the Foundation Bancorp Board. In addition, prior to the Effective Date, Foundation Bancorp and each Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary shall upon reasonable request of PCC (taking into account time considerations, the ability to make any relations actions contingent on the Closing occurring, and the need for consent from any third parties, including employees), take all reasonable actions requested by PCB in writing that may be necessary or appropriate to (1) cause one or more of the other Foundation Bancorp Plans to terminate as of the Effective Date, or as of the date immediately preceding the Effective Date, subject to the terms of the Foundation Bancorp Plans and applicable law, (2) cause benefit accruals and entitlements under any Foundation Bancorp Plan to cease as of the Effective Date, or as of the date immediately preceding the Effective Date, (3) make a good faith effort to cause the continuation on and after the Effective Date of any contract, arrangement or insurance policy relating to any Foundation Bancorp Plan for such period as may be requested by PCB, or (4) facilitate the merger of any Foundation Bancorp Plan into any employee benefit plan maintained by PCB after the Effective Date. All resolutions, notices, or other documents issued, adopted or executed in connection with the implementation of this Section 7.7(g) shall be subject to PCB’s prior review and approval.

(h) Prior to the Effective Time, Foundation Bancorp and each Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary shall cooperate with PCB to allow PCB, in its sole discretion, but subject to reasonable procedures and

limitations established by Foundation Bancorp, to (1) arrange and conduct for employees of Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary, an open enrollment period for PCB Welfare Plans (to the extent such plans will be made available to such employees) and employee orientation sessions (with such sessions to be held at times reasonably agreed to by PCB and Foundation Bancorp), and (2) meet with employees of Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary (either individually or in groups) during breaks, or as otherwise agreed to by PCB and Foundation Bancorp.

(i) At the Effective Time or such later time when a termination of employment occurs, as applicable, except with respect to those officers or employees of Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary who are party to an employment agreement or other agreement providing for greater severance benefits with Foundation Bancorp or with such Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary, PCC shall pay to (1) those employees of Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary who are not Continuing Employees and (2) Continuing Employees whose employment is terminated in the six (6) month period following the Effective Time, an amount of severance pay in cash equal to two (2) weeks’ salary for every year of service with Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary, subject to a minimum severance pay amount of four (4) weeks’ salary.

(j) PCB shall take all steps reasonably necessary to permit each Continuing Employee who has received an eligible rollover distribution (as defined in Section 402(c)(4) of the Code) from the Foundation Bancorp 401(k) Plan to roll over such eligible distribution as part of any lump sum distributions, to the extent permitted by the Foundation Bancorp 401(k) Plan, into an account under the PCB 401(k) Plan.

7.8 Indemnification of Directors and Officers; D&O 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 person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date of this Agreement, or who becomes prior to the Effective Date, a director or officer of Foundation Bancorp or the Bank (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 or she is or was a director, officer or employee of Foundation Bancorp or the Bank, or (ii) this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, whether in any case asserted or arising before or after the Effective Date, the parties hereto agree to cooperate and use their reasonable best efforts to defend against and respond thereto. On and after the Effective Time, PCC shall indemnify and hold harmless, as and to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, the Foundation Bancorp Articles and Foundation Bancorp Bylaws, and the Bank Articles and the Bank Bylaws, the Indemnified Parties against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ 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 applicable law upon receipt of an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification), judgments and fines incurred in connection with any such threatened or actual claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, and in the event of any such threatened or actual claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, the Indemnified Parties may retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to them; provided, however, that (1) PCC shall have the right to assume the defense thereof and upon such assumption PCC shall not be liable to any Indemnified Party for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses subsequently incurred by any Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof, except that if PCC elects not to assume such defense or counsel for the Indemnified Parties reasonably advises the Indemnified Parties that there are issues which raise conflicts of interest between PCC and the Indemnified Parties, the Indemnified Parties may retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to them after notification, and PCC shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel for the Indemnified Parties; (2) PCC shall not be liable for any settlement effected without its prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed; and (3) PCC shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Party when and if a court of competent jurisdiction shall ultimately determine, and such determination shall have become final and non-appealable, that indemnification of such Indemnified Party in the

 

A-55


Table of Contents

manner contemplated hereby is prohibited by applicable law; provided further, however, that any such determination shall not limit or affect the availability of insurance protection, as set forth in Section 7.8(d), unless the insurance policy provides for such a limitation or otherwise excludes coverage under such circumstances.

(b) Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under Section 7.8(a), upon learning of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, shall promptly notify PCC thereof in writing, provided that the failure to so notify PCC shall not relieve PCC of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that such failure materially prejudices PCC. PCC’s obligations under Section 7.8(a) continue in full force and effect for a period of six (6) years from the Effective Date; provided, however, that all rights to indemnification in respect of any claim asserted or made within such period shall continue until the final disposition of such claim.

Nothing in this Section 7.8(c) shall require any amendment to the articles of incorporation of PCC or PCB.

If Foundation Bancorp and the Surviving Corporation for any reason fails to obtain such “tail” insurance policies as of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and PCC shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, continue to maintain in effect for a period of at least six (6) years from and after the Effective Time the D&O Insurance in place as of the date of this Agreement with benefits and levels of coverage at least as favorable to the Indemnified Parties as provided in Foundation Bancorp’s existing policies as of the date of this Agreement, or the Surviving Corporation shall, and PCC shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, purchase comparable D&O Insurance for such six (6) year period with benefits and levels of coverage at least as favorable to the Indemnified Parties as provided in Foundation Bancorp’s existing policies as of the date of this Agreement; providedhowever, that in no event shall PCC or the Surviving Corporation be required to expend for such policies an annual premium amount in excess of 300% of the annual premiums currently paid by Foundation Bancorp for such insurance; and, provided, further, that if the annual premiums of such insurance coverage exceed such amount, the Surviving Corporation shall, and PCC shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding such amount.

(e) If PCC or any of its successors or assigns (1) shall consolidate with or merge into any other corporation or entity and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (2) shall transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any individual, corporation or other entity, then, and in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the surviving corporation shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 7.8.

(f) The provisions of Section 7.8(a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties, their heirs and their representatives following consummation of the Mergers.

10. TERMINATION.

10.1 Procedure for Termination. This Agreement may be terminated before the Effective Date:

(a) By the mutual written consent of Foundation Bancorp and PCC;

(b) By either Foundation Bancorp or PCC, if its Board of Directors so determines by vote of a majority of the members of its entire Board of Directors, upon written notice to the other party, if at the time of such notice the Merger shall not have become effective by April 30, 2017 (or such later date as shall have been agreed to in writing by PCC and Foundation Bancorp), except to the extent that the failure of the Merger to be consummated arises out of or results from the action or inaction of the party seeking to terminate, which action or inaction is in material violation of its obligations under this Agreement;

(c) By PCC or Foundation Bancorp, in the event of either: (i) a material breach by the other party of any representation or warranty contained herein, which breach cannot be or has not been cured within thirty (30) days after the giving of written notice to the breaching party of such breach; or (ii) a material breach by the other party of any of the covenants or agreements contained herein, which breach cannot be or has not been cured within thirty (30) days after the giving of written notice to the breaching party of such breach, provided that (A) such breach (under either clause (i) or (ii)) would entitle the non-breaching party not to consummate the Merger under Section 8.2 (if PCC is the non-breaching party) or Section 8.3 (if Foundation Bancorp is the non-breaching party), and (B) the terminating party is not itself in material breach of any provision of this Agreement;

(d) By Foundation Bancorp, prior to the time, but not after, the approval of this Agreement by the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp at the Foundation Bancorp Meeting has occurred, if: (i) Foundation Bancorp is not in material breach of this Agreement; (ii) Foundation Bancorp receives an unsolicited bona fide Acquisition Proposal that is not withdrawn and the Foundation Bancorp Board determines in good faith it constitutes a Superior Proposal; (iii) the Foundation Bancorp Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside, legal counsel and independent financial advisors) that failure to accept such Superior Proposal would be more likely than not inconsistent with its fiduciary obligations; (iv) Foundation Bancorp provides PCC prior written notice at least three (3) Business Days prior to terminating this Agreement, which notice shall state that the Foundation Bancorp Board has received a Superior Proposal and, absent any revision to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Foundation Bancorp Board has determined to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(d); (v) during such three (3) Business Day period, Foundation Bancorp negotiates in good faith with PCC (to the extent PCC wishes to negotiate) to enable PCC to make an improved offer such that the Acquisition Proposal at issue would cease to constitute a Superior Proposal; (vi) at the end of such three (3) Business Day period (or such earlier time that PCC advises Foundation Bancorp that it no longer wishes to negotiate to amend this Agreement), the Foundation Bancorp Board, after taking into account any modification to the terms of this Agreement and the Merger proposed by PCC, continues to believe that, such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal, and Foundation Bancorp enters into a definitive agreement for such

Superior Proposal; and (vii) Foundation Bancorp, prior to such termination of this Agreement, pays to PCC in immediately available funds any amounts required to be paid pursuant to Sections 10.2.2(a) and 10.2.2(b) hereof;

(e) By either party, if any Order permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting consummation of the Merger shall become final and non-appealable (whether before or after the approval of the Merger by the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp);

(f) By either party, if the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp fail to approve the principal terms of this Agreement at the Foundation Bancorp Meeting (provided that a party shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement if the failure to obtain the required shareholder approval is attributable to a failure on the part of such party to perform any material obligation required hereunder to be performed by such party); or

(g) By PCC, if the Foundation Bancorp Board (i) submits this Agreement to its shareholders without a recommendation for approval or with any adverse conditions on, or qualifications of, such recommendation for approval; (ii) otherwise withdraws or materially and adversely modifies (or discloses its intention to withdraw or materially and adversely modify) its recommendation referred to in Section 6.6; or (iii) recommends to its shareholders a Superior Proposal.

A-71


Table of Contents

discourage, adversely affect or inhibit the timely consummation of the Merger or the fulfillment of PCC’s, PCB’s, Foundation Bancorp’s or the Bank’s conditions under the Merger Agreement, unless, in the case of (i) or (ii), (x) the Foundation Bancorp Board shall have effected a change in recommendation under Section 6.5 of the Merger Agreement or terminated the Merger Agreement, or (y) the Foundation Bancorp Meeting shall have concluded with the vote contemplated by the Merger Agreement having been taken.

The undertaking in this Agreement of each Director to vote his or her respective shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock in favor of the principal terms of the Merger Agreement relates solely to such Director’s separate interests as shareholders and not in any way to his or her position as a director of Foundation Bancorp.

(d) Director agrees that all shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock or Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock that Director purchases, acquires the right to vote or otherwise acquires beneficial ownership (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) after the execution of this Agreement, including without limitation, by purchase, as a result of a stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification, exchange or change of such Foundation Bancorp Common Stock or Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock, or upon exercise or conversion of any other securities, shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement and shall constitute Shares for all purposes of this Agreement.

8. Miscellaneous.

(a) Entire Agreement; Amendment. The obligations of Director set forth in this Agreement shall not be effective or binding upon Director until after such time as the Merger Agreement is executed and delivered by Foundation Bancorp, the Bank, PCC and PCB, and this Agreement supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented in any manner, except by an instrument in writing signed by all of the parties hereto.

(b) Waiver. No failure or delay of any party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have hereunder. Any agreement on the part of a party to any such waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument executed and delivered by such party.

(c) Specific Performance and Other Equitable Remedies. The parties acknowledge that the type and period of restriction imposed in Section 4 and Section 5 above are fair and reasonable and are reasonably required for the protection of PCC and Foundation Bancorp and of the goodwill associated with the business of Foundation Bancorp. Director acknowledges that PCC would not have entered into the Merger Agreement unless Director had, among other things, entered into this Agreement. In the event PCC considers Director or Director considers PCC to be in material breach of any obligation under this Agreement, the party asserting the breach shall provide

 

A-72


Table of Contents

to the other party written notice of the acts or omissions that are deemed to be in breach. The party allegedly in breach will then have ten (10) days to cure that claimed breach and provide written documentation as to the cure. No legal action can proceed until notice has been given and the opportunity to cure has elapsed. In addition to any other rights and remedies PCC may have if Director violates this Agreement, Director agrees that a breach by Director of his or her covenants set forth in this Agreement is likely to cause Foundation Bancorp, and PCC as its successor, irreparable injury and damage, and Director hereby expressly agrees that Foundation Bancorp, and PCC as its successor, shall be entitled to seek the remedies of injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent a breach of this Agreement by Director. Each of the parties further waives (i) any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate and (ii) any requirement under any law to post security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief. This provision shall not be construed as a waiver of any of the remedies which Foundation Bancorp or PCC may have for damages or otherwise.

(d) Governing Law. This Agreement and all disputes and controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be governed by and subject to the applicable federal banking laws of the United States of America and, to the extent state law would apply, rather than such federal laws, to the laws of the State of Oregon (determined without reference to the choice of law provisions thereof).

(e) Construction. It is the intent of the parties hereto that this Agreement shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under Oregon law, and, wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in a manner that will render it effective and valid under Oregon law. If any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or become invalid under applicable law, that provision will be ineffective only to the extent of the prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of the provision or the remaining provisions of the Agreement. The parties expressly intend and desire that any court holding any provision of this Agreement to be invalid or unenforceable as written substitute a provision that is enforceable and that most fully accomplishes the purpose of the invalid or unenforceable provision and enforce the other provisions of this Agreement. Accordingly, if any provision hereof shall be deemed invalid or unenforceable, this Agreement shall be amended to delete or modify as necessary the invalid or unenforceable provisions to alter the balance of this Agreement to render the same valid and enforceable.

(f) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, and each such executed counterpart shall be deemed to be an original instrument, but all such executed counterparts together shall constitute but one agreement.

(g) Further Assurances. From time to time, at the request of PCC and without further consideration, Director shall take such further actions, including executing and delivering such additional documents, as may be reasonably deemed by PCC to be necessary or desirable to make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(h) Attorneys’ Fees. If any action is instituted to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action shall be entitled to recover from the losing party its reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses.

(i) Headings. The article and section headings in this Agreement are for the convenience of the parties and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

(j) Assignment. Neither party to this Agreement may assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party hereto, except that PCC may assign, in its sole discretion, all or any of its rights, interests and obligations hereunder to any of its Affiliates. Any assignment contrary to the provisions of this Section 9(j) shall be null and void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

5. [Reserved].

7. Voting.

(a) Officer hereby agrees, in his or her individual capacity as a shareholder, and not in the capacity of an officer of Foundation Bancorp, during the term of this Agreement, to vote and to cause any holder of record of Shares referenced herein to vote or execute a written consent or consents if shareholders of Foundation Bancorp are requested to vote their shares through the execution of an action by written consent in lieu of any such annual or special meeting of shareholders of Foundation Bancorp: (i) in favor of the Merger and the Merger Agreement, at every meeting (or in connection with any action by written consent) of the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp at which such matters are considered and at every adjournment or postponement thereof; or (ii) against (1) any Acquisition Proposal, (2) any action, proposal, transaction or agreement which could reasonably be expected to result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of Foundation Bancorp or the Bank under the Merger Agreement or of Officer under this Agreement and (3) any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that could reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, delay, discourage, adversely affect or inhibit the timely consummation of the Merger or the fulfillment of PCC’s, PCB’s, Foundation Bancorp’s or the Bank’s conditions under the Merger Agreement, unless, in the case of (i) or (ii), (x) the Foundation Bancorp Board shall have effected a change in recommendation under Section 6.5 of the Merger Agreement or terminated the Merger Agreement, or (y) the Foundation Bancorp Meeting shall have concluded with the vote contemplated by the Merger Agreement having been taken.

(b) Until the earliest of the Effective Date, the termination of the Merger Agreement, or a change of recommendation under Section 6.5 of the Merger Agreement, Officer will not sell, permit any Lien to be created with respect to, or grant any proxy or other voting rights in respect of (other than the proxy and power of attorney granted hereunder), the Shares.

(c) Officer hereby agrees, in his or her individual capacity as a shareholder and not in the capacity of an officer of Foundation Bancorp, that between the date hereof and the earliest of the Effective Date, the termination of the Merger Agreement, or a change of recommendation under Section 6.5 of the Merger Agreement, he or she shall not, directly or indirectly, initiate contact with any person or entity in an effort to solicit any Acquisition Proposal.

A-79


Table of Contents

conversion of any other securities, shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement and shall constitute Shares for all purposes of this Agreement.

8. Miscellaneous.

(a) Entire Agreement; Amendment. The obligations of Officer set forth in this Agreement shall not be effective or binding upon Officer until after such time as the Merger Agreement is executed and delivered by Foundation Bancorp, the Bank, PCC and PCB, and this Agreement supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented in any manner, except by an instrument in writing signed by all of the parties hereto.

(b) Waiver. No failure or delay of any party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have hereunder. Any agreement on the part of a party to any such waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument executed and delivered by such party.

(c) Specific Performance and Other Equitable Remedies. The parties acknowledge that the type and period of restriction imposed in Section 4 above is fair and reasonable and is reasonably required for the protection of PCC and Foundation Bancorp and of the goodwill associated with the business of Foundation Bancorp. Officer acknowledges that PCC would not have entered into the Merger Agreement unless Officer had, among other things, entered into this Agreement. In the event PCC considers Officer or Officer considers PCC to be in material breach of any obligation under this Agreement, the party asserting the breach shall provide to the other party written notice of the acts or omissions that are deemed to be in breach. The party allegedly in breach will then have ten (10) days to cure that claimed breach and provide written documentation as to the cure. No legal action can proceed until notice has been given and the opportunity to cure has elapsed. In addition to any other rights and remedies PCC may have if Officer violates this Agreement, Officer agrees that a breach by Officer of his or her covenants set forth in this Agreement is likely to cause Foundation Bancorp, and PCC as its successor, irreparable injury and damage, and Officer hereby expressly agrees that Foundation Bancorp, and PCC as its successor, shall be entitled to seek the remedies of injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent a breach of this Agreement by Officer. Each of the parties further waives (i) any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate and (ii) any requirement under any law to post security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief. This provision shall not be construed as a waiver of any of the remedies which Foundation Bancorp or PCC may have for damages or otherwise.

(d) Governing Law. This Agreement and all disputes and controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be governed by and subject to the applicable federal banking laws of the United States of America and, to the extent state law would apply, rather than such federal laws, to the laws of the State of Oregon (determined without reference to the choice of law provisions thereof).

(e) Construction. It is the intent of the parties hereto that this Agreement shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under Oregon law, and, wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in a manner that will render it effective and valid under Oregon law. If any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or become invalid under applicable law, that provision will be ineffective only to the extent of the prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of the provision or the remaining provisions of the Agreement. The parties expressly intend and desire that any court holding any provision of this Agreement to be invalid or unenforceable as written substitute a provision that is enforceable and that most fully accomplishes the purpose of the invalid or unenforceable provision and enforce the other provisions of this Agreement. Accordingly, if any provision hereof shall be deemed invalid or unenforceable, this Agreement shall

 

A-80


Table of Contents

be amended to delete or modify as necessary the invalid or unenforceable provisions to alter the balance of this Agreement to render the same valid and enforceable.

(f) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, and each such executed counterpart shall be deemed to be an original instrument, but all such executed counterparts together shall constitute but one agreement.

(g) Further Assurances. From time to time, at the request of PCC and without further consideration, Officer shall take such further actions, including executing and delivering such additional documents, as may be reasonably deemed by PCC to be necessary or desirable to make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(h) Attorneys’ Fees. If any action is instituted to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action shall be entitled to recover from the losing party its reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses.

(i) Headings. The article and section headings in this Agreement are for the convenience of the parties and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

(j) Assignment. Neither party to this Agreement may assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party hereto, except that PCC may assign, in its sole discretion, all or any of its rights, interests and obligations hereunder to any of its Affiliates. Any assignment contrary to the provisions of this Section 9(j) shall be null and void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

agreement on the part of a party to any such waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument executed and delivered by such party.

(c) Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek specific performance of the terms hereof, this being in addition to any other remedies to which they are entitled at law or equity, in contract or tort or any other claims.

7. Merger Consideration.

Subject to Sections 2.1.5, 2.1.6, 2.1.7, 2.2, 2.3, 10.1(d), and 11.5 of the Merger Agreement, at and as of the Effective Time, automatically by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Person, each share of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock (other than Dissenters’ Shares) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive, at the election of the holder thereof as provided in Section 8:

(a) Cash in an amount equal to $12.50 (the “Per Share Cash Consideration”); or

(b) 0.7911 shares of PCC Common Stock (the “Per Share Stock Consideration”).

8. Election Procedures.

(a) Election Form. An Election Form shall be mailed to the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp on or about the thirtieth (30th) day prior to the anticipated Effective Date. Each Election Form shall permit the holder (or in the case of nominee record holders, the beneficial owner through proper instructions and documentation), subject to the conditions set forth in Section 8(c), (i) to elect a Stock Election, (ii) to elect a Cash Election, (iii) to elect a Mixed Election or (iv) to indicate a Non-Election. Nominee record holders who hold Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock, or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock on behalf of multiple beneficial owners shall indicate how many of the shares held by them are Stock Election Shares, Cash Election Shares and No-Election Shares based upon the actions of the beneficial owners thereof. If a shareholder either (i) does not submit and continue to maintain through the Election Deadline a properly completed Election Form or (ii) fails to perfect his, her or its right to dissent under the WBCA, the shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and/or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock held by such shareholder shall be designated No-Election Shares. Any Dissenting Shares shall be deemed to be Cash Election Shares and, with respect to such shares, the holders thereof shall in no event be classified as holders of Reallocated Stock Shares.

(b) Election Deadline. The term “Election Deadline” shall mean 5:00 p.m., Pacific Time, on the Business Day that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Effective Date, or such other date as PCC and Foundation Bancorp shall mutually agree upon.

(c) Effective Election. Any election to receive PCC Common Stock and/or cash shall have been properly made only if the Exchange Agent shall have actually received a properly completed Election Form by the Election Deadline. Any Election Form may be revoked or changed by the person submitting such Election Form to the Exchange Agent (or any other Person to whom the subject shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock are subsequently transferred) by written notice to the Exchange Agent only if such written notice is actually received by the Exchange Agent at or

 

A-94


Table of Contents

prior to the Election Deadline. The Exchange Agent shall have reasonable discretion to determine when any election, modification or revocation is received, whether any such election, modification or revocation has been properly made and to disregard immaterial defects in any Election Form, and any good faith decisions of the Exchange Agent regarding such matters shall be binding and conclusive. Neither PCC nor the Exchange Agent shall be under any obligation to notify any person of any defect in an Election Form.

(d) Allocation. The Exchange Agent shall effect the allocation among holders of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and/or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock of rights to receive PCC Common Stock and/or cash in the Merger in accordance with the Election Forms as follows:

(i) Cash Consideration Undersubscribed. If the number of Cash Election Shares times the Per Share Cash Consideration is less than an amount equal to the Aggregate Cash Consideration, then:

(A) all Cash Election Shares (subject to Section 9 with respect to Dissenters’ Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive cash;

(B) No-Election Shares shall then be deemed to be Cash Election Shares to the extent necessary to have the total number of Cash Election Shares (including Dissenters’ Shares) times the Per Share Cash Consideration equal the Aggregate Cash Consideration. If less than all of the No-Election Shares are so required to be treated as Cash Election Shares, then the Exchange Agent shall select which No-Election Shares shall be treated as Cash Election Shares in such manner as to maximize the number of No-Election Shares treated as subject to a Mixed Election, and all remaining No-Election Shares shall thereafter be treated as Stock Election Shares;

(C) if all of the No-Election Shares are treated as Cash Election Shares under the preceding subsection and the total number of Cash Election Shares times the Per Share Cash Consideration is still less than the Aggregate Cash Consideration, then the Exchange Agent shall convert on a pro rata basis as described in Section 8(e) a sufficient number of Stock Election Shares into Cash Election Shares (“Reallocated Cash Shares”) such that the sum of the number of Cash Election Shares plus the number of Reallocated Cash Shares times the Per Share Cash Consideration equals the Aggregate Cash Consideration (provided that Stock Election Shares subject to a Mixed Election shall be treated as Reallocated Cash Shares only if the Stock Election Shares not subject to a Mixed Election are insufficient in number); and all Reallocated Cash Shares will be converted into the right to receive cash; and

(D) the Stock Election Shares which are not Reallocated Cash Shares shall be converted into the right to receive PCC Common Stock.

(ii) Cash Consideration Oversubscribed. If the number of Cash Election Shares times the Per Share Cash Consideration is greater than the Aggregate Cash Consideration, then:

(A) all Stock Election Shares and a sufficient number of No-Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive PCC Common Stock; provided that the Exchange Agent shall select which No-Election Shares shall be treated as Stock Election Shares in such a manner as to maximize the number of No-Election Shares treated as subject to a Mixed Election;

(B) if, after following the procedures in Section 8(d)(ii)(A), the Cash Consideration is still over-subscribed, then the Exchange Agent shall convert on a pro rata basis as described in Section 8(e) a sufficient number of Cash Election Shares (excluding any Dissenters’ Shares) (“Reallocated Stock Shares”) such that the number of remaining Cash Election Shares (including Dissenters’ Shares) times the Per Share Cash Consideration equals the Aggregate Cash Consideration (provided that Cash Election Shares subject to a Mixed Election shall be treated as Reallocated Stock Shares only if, and to the extent that, the Cash Election Shares not subject to a Mixed Election are insufficient in number); and all Reallocated Stock Shares shall be converted into the right to receive PCC Common Stock; and

 

A-95


Table of Contents

(C) the Cash Election Shares (subject to Section 9 with respect to Dissenters’ Shares) which are not Reallocated Stock Shares shall be converted into the right to receive cash.

(iii) Cash Consideration Satisfied. If the number of Cash Election Shares times the Per Share Cash Consideration is equal to the Aggregate Cash Consideration, then Section 8(d)(i) and Section 8(d)(ii) of the Merger Agreement shall not apply and all Cash Election Shares (subject to Section 9 with respect to Dissenters’ Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive cash and all No-Election Shares and all Stock Election Shares will be converted into the right to receive PCC Common Stock.

(e) Pro Rata Reallocations. In the event that the Exchange Agent is required pursuant to Section 8(d)(i)(C) to convert some Stock Election Shares into Reallocated Cash Shares, each holder of Stock Election Shares shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the total Reallocated Cash Shares. In the event the Exchange Agent is required pursuant to Section 8(d)(ii)(B) to convert some Cash Election Shares into Reallocated Stock Shares, each holder of Cash Election Shares shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the total Reallocated Stock Shares.

(f) Adjustment Per Tax Opinion. Notwithstanding anything in Section 2 of the Merger Agreement to the contrary, if Sidley Austin LLP and tax counsel to PCC reasonably determine that the amount of cash payable pursuant to Section 8 (prior to the application of this Section 8(f)) exceeds the maximum amount of cash that would enable Sidley Austin LLP to deliver the tax opinion referred to in Section 8.3(d) of the Merger Agreement solely because the Merger would not satisfy the “continuity-of-interest” requirements of Section 368 of the Code (and relevant Treasury Regulations and other applicable authority), the amount of cash to be delivered (but for this Section 8(f)) with respect to each share of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock, that are convertible, in whole or in part, into a right to receive cash, shall be reduced to the minimum extent necessary (and PCC shall deliver with respect to each such share of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock, in lieu of the reduced amount of cash, that number of shares of PCC Common Stock having an aggregate value (based on the closing price of the PCC Common Stock on the Closing Date) equal to the reduced amount of cash) so that, in the reasonable determination of Sidley Austin LLP and tax counsel to PCC, Sidley Austin LLP shall be able to deliver the tax opinion referred to in Section 8.3(d) of the Merger Agreement. In making its determination, Sidley Austin LLP and tax counsel to PCC shall take into account cash in lieu of fractional shares, Dissenters’ Shares, payments made by Foundation Bancorp to its shareholders as redemption proceeds or as extraordinary dividends, the Cumulative Cash Dividend, shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock to be excluded from the relevant calculations, and such other considerations as Sidley Austin LLP and tax counsel to PCC reasonably deem necessary to take into account for purposes of making the Merger satisfy such “continuity-of-interest” requirements.

9. Dissenters’ Shares.

All Dissenters’ Shares shall be converted into the right to receive payment with respect thereto in accordance with the provisions of the WBCA and shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive the Merger Consideration unless and until such shares have lost their status as Dissenters’ Shares under the Revised Code of Washington §§ 23B.13.010 et seq. at which time each such share shall be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration. As of the Effective Time, all such shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock (which are not Dissenters’ Shares) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration to be paid in accordance with Section 11.

10. Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock.

(a) Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock. Foundation Bancorp shall take all actions necessary to cause each outstanding share of Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock to be fully vested so that all restrictions on the

 

A-96


Table of Contents

Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock shall lapse as of the Effective Time, and such shares shall be entitled to the election procedures set forth in Section 8.

(b) Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock. Each share of the Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, without the consent of the holders thereof, become convertible into the right to receive the Merger Consideration with respect to 1,500,000 shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, as provided in Section 7 hereof, together with the Cumulative Cash Dividend. The holder of the Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock shall have the opportunity to elect the form of Merger Consideration to be received in the transaction, in accordance with Section 8 hereof. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 10(b) to the contrary, the holder of Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock may elect to be paid the “fair value” of its Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock pursuant to the procedure set forth in RCW §§ 23B.13.010 et seq., as provided in Section 9 hereof.

11. Exchange Procedures.

(a) Preliminary Mailing of Transmittal Material. Provided that Foundation Bancorp has delivered, or caused to be delivered, to the Exchange Agent all information which is reasonably necessary for the Exchange Agent to perform its obligations as specified herein, the Exchange Agent shall, and PCC shall cause the Exchange Agent to, mail or deliver to each holder of record of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and/or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock, simultaneously with the mailing or delivery of the Election Form, a form of letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to such Certificate(s) theretofore representing shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Foundation Bancorp Certificates”) or book-entry shares (“Book-Entry Shares”), as relevant, shall pass only upon proper delivery of such Foundation Bancorp Certificate(s) or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent advising such holder of the procedure for surrendering to the Exchange Agent) such Foundation Bancorp Certificate(s) or Book-Entry Shares in exchange for the consideration to which such holder may be entitled pursuant to Section 7 hereof.

(b) Secondary Mailing of Transmittal Material. PCC shall take all steps necessary to cause the Exchange Agent, within five (5) Business Days after the Effective Time, to mail to each holder of Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares who has not previously surrendered such Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares with an Election Form, a form letter of transmittal for return to the Exchange Agent and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Foundation Bancorp Certificates and Book-Entry Shares for the Merger Consideration and cash in lieu of fractional shares, if any, into which the shares of such Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock have been converted pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) PCC Deliveries. At least one (1) day prior to the Closing, for the benefit of the holders of Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, (i) PCC shall deliver to the Exchange Agent evidence of shares in book entry form, representing the number of shares of PCC Common Stock issuable to the holders of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock as part of the Merger Consideration and (ii) PCC shall deliver, or cause PCB to deliver, to the Exchange Agent, the cash portion of the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 2 of the Merger Agreement, each to be delivered to the holders of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock in exchange for their Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares as provided in Section 2 of the Merger Agreement. The Exchange Agent shall not be entitled to vote or exercise any rights of ownership with respect to the shares of PCC Common Stock held by it from time to time hereunder, except that it shall receive and hold all dividends or other distributions paid or distributed with respect to such shares for the account of the Persons entitled thereto.

 

A-97


Table of Contents

(d) Exchange Agent Deliveries.

(i) After completion of the allocation referred to in Section 8(d) and upon the Closing, each holder of a Foundation Bancorp Certificate or Certificates or Book-Entry Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time who has properly surrendered, or has caused to be surrendered, such Foundation Bancorp Certificate or Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of such Certificates) or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent will be entitled to evidence of issuance in book entry form, or upon written request of such holder a certificate or certificates representing, the number of whole shares of PCC Common Stock and/or the amount of cash into which the aggregate number of shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock previously represented by such Foundation Bancorp Certificate or Certificates or Book-Entry Shares surrendered shall have been converted pursuant to this Agreement and, if such holder’s shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock have been converted into PCC Common Stock, and any other distribution theretofore paid with respect to PCC Common Stock issuable in the Merger, in each case, without interest. The Exchange Agent shall accept such Foundation Bancorp Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of such Certificates) or Book-Entry Shares upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Exchange Agent may impose to effect an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with normal exchange practices.

(ii) If a holder of Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares surrenders, or causes to be surrendered, such Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares and a properly executed letter of transmittal to the Exchange Agent at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Effective Date, then PCC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange Agent to deliver, within two (2) Business Days following the Effective Date, to such holder of Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares the Merger Consideration into which the shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock represented by such Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares have been converted pursuant to Section 7. Subject to Section 11(b), if a holder of Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares surrenders, or causes to be surrendered, such Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares and a properly executed letter of transmittal to the Exchange Agent at any time after five (5) Business Days prior to the Effective Date, then PCC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange Agent to promptly, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days following receipt of such Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares and properly executed letter of transmittal, deliver to such holder of Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares the Merger Consideration into which the shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock represented by such Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares have been converted pursuant to Section 7.

(iii) Each Foundation Bancorp Certificate or Book-Entry Share outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time which prior to the Effective Time represented Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock and which is not surrendered to and accepted by the Exchange Agent in accordance with the procedures provided for herein shall, except as otherwise herein provided, until duly surrendered to the Exchange Agent, be deemed to evidence ownership of the number of shares of PCC Common Stock and/or the right to receive the amount of cash, into which such Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock shall have been converted. After the Effective Time, there shall be no further transfer on the records of Foundation Bancorp of Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares representing Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock and, if such Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are presented to Foundation Bancorp for transfer, they shall be cancelled against delivery of certificates or book-entry shares for PCC Common Stock and/or cash as hereinabove provided. No dividends which have been declared will be remitted to any Person entitled to receive shares of PCC Common Stock under Section 7 until such Person surrenders the Foundation Bancorp Certificate or Certificates or Book-Entry Shares representing Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp

 

A-98


Table of Contents

Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock, at which time such dividends shall be remitted to such Person, without interest. In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of Foundation Bancorp, the Merger Consideration to be delivered upon due surrender of the Foundation Bancorp Certificate or Book-Entry Shares may be delivered to such a transferee if the Foundation Bancorp Certificate or Book-Entry Shares formerly representing such shares is presented to PCC, accompanied by all documents reasonably required by PCC to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable stock transfer taxes have been paid or are not applicable.

(iv) In the event any Foundation Bancorp 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 PCC or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such Person of a bond in such amount as PCC may determine is reasonably necessary as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Foundation Bancorp Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the applicable Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the requirements of this Section 11.

(v) Unclaimed Merger Consideration. Any portion of the shares of PCC Common Stock and cash delivered to the Exchange Agent by PCC pursuant to Section 11(c) that remains unclaimed by the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp for one (1) year after the Effective Time (as well as any proceeds from any investment thereof) shall be delivered by the Exchange Agent to PCC. Any shareholders of Foundation Bancorp who have not theretofore complied with Section 11(d) shall thereafter look only to PCC for the consideration deliverable in respect of each share of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock such shareholder holds as determined pursuant to this Agreement without any interest thereon. If outstanding Certificates for shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock or Book-Entry Shares are not surrendered or the payment for them is not claimed prior to the date on which such shares of PCC Common Stock or cash would otherwise escheat to any governmental unit or agency, the unclaimed items shall, to the extent permitted by abandoned property and any other applicable law, become the property of PCC (and to the extent not in its possession shall be delivered to it), free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled to such property. Neither the Exchange Agent nor any party to this Agreement shall be liable to any holder of stock represented by any Foundation Bancorp Certificate or Book-Entry Shares for any consideration paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws. PCC and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the stock transfer books of Foundation Bancorp to establish the identity of those Persons entitled to receive the Merger Consideration specified in this Agreement, which books shall be conclusive with respect thereto. In the event of a dispute with respect to ownership of stock represented by any Foundation Bancorp Certificate or any Book-Entry Shares, PCC and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deposit any Merger Consideration represented thereby in escrow with an independent third party and thereafter be relieved with respect to any claims thereto.

(e) No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, neither certificates nor scrip for fractional shares of PCC Common Stock shall be issued in the Merger. Each holder of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock who otherwise would have been entitled to a fraction of a share of PCC Common Stock (after taking into account all Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares delivered by such holder) shall receive in lieu thereof cash (without interest) in an amount determined by multiplying the fractional share interest to which such holder would otherwise be entitled by the Per Share Cash Consideration. No such holder shall be entitled to dividends, voting rights or any other rights in respect of any fractional share.

(f) Withholding Rights. Each of PCC, the Exchange Agent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares such amounts as it is required to deduct and

 

A-99


Table of Contents

withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any other applicable state, local or foreign Tax laws. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Surviving Corporation or PCC, as the case may be, such withheld amounts (i) shall be remitted by PCC or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, to the applicable Governmental Authority, and (ii) to the extent so remitted, shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Surviving Corporation or PCC, as the case may be.

12. Anti-Dilution Provision.

If, prior to the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of PCC Common Stock shall have been increased, decreased, changed into or exchanged for a different kind of shares or securities, as a result of a stock dividend, stock split, or reverse stock split or similar transaction involving the issuance of PCC Common Stock for which no consideration is received, or other similar change in capitalization, an appropriate and proportionate adjustment shall be made to the Per Share Stock Consideration to provide the holders of shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock and Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock (and shares of Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock entitled to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 10(b) hereof) which have converted into the stock portion of the Merger Consideration the same economic effect as contemplated by the Merger Agreement with respect to the stock portion of the Merger Consideration prior to such event.

13. Shareholder Approval.

This Agreement has been ratified and approved by the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp at a meeting called and held in accordance with the applicable provisions of law and its Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws. Approval of this Agreement by the shareholders of PCC is not required in accordance with Section 60.487(7) of the OBCA. Each of PCC and Foundation Bancorp have procured all other consents and approvals, taken all other actions, and satisfied all other requirements prescribed by law or otherwise, necessary for consummation of the Merger on the terms herein provided.

14. Conditions to the Merger.

All conditions precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement as set forth in the Merger Agreement have been satisfied or waived.

(a) A plan of merger, which has become effective, to which the corporation is a party (i) if shareholder approval was required for the merger by RCW 23B.11.030, 23B.11.080, or the articles of incorporation, and the shareholder was entitled to vote on the merger, or (ii) if the corporation was a subsidiary and the plan of merger provided for the merger of the subsidiary with its parent under RCW 23B.11.040;

(6) Each dissenter made a party to the proceeding is entitled to judgment (a) for the amount, if any, by which the court finds the fair value of the dissenter’s shares, plus interest, exceeds the amount paid by the corporation, or (b) for the fair value, plus accrued interest, of the dissenter’s after-acquired shares for which the corporation elected to withhold payment under RCW 23B.13.270.

(2) The court may also assess the fees and expenses of counsel and experts for the respective parties, in amounts the court finds equitable:

(a) Against the corporation and in favor of any or all dissenters if the court finds the corporation did not substantially comply with the requirements of RCW 23B.13.200 through 23B.13.280; or

(b) Against either the corporation or a dissenter, in favor of any other party, if the court finds that the party against whom the fees and expenses are assessed acted arbitrarily, vexatiously, or not in good faith with respect to the rights provided by chapter 23B.13 RCW.

(3) If the court finds that the services of counsel for any dissenter were of substantial benefit to other dissenters similarly situated, and that the fees for those services should not be assessed against the corporation, the court may award to these counsel reasonable fees to be paid out of the amounts awarded the dissenters who were benefited.

Pursuant to the Agreement and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth therein, at and as of the Effective Time (as defined in the Agreement), automatically by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of FDNB or PCBK, the holders common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of FDNB (the “FDNB Common Stock”) or the holders of common stock, no par value per share, of PCBK (the “PCBK Common Stock”), each share of FDNB Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (including shares of Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock (as defined in the Agreement) and shares of FDNB Common Stock issued upon the conversion of shares of Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock (as defined in the Agreement), as provided in the Agreement, and excluding Dissenters’ Shares (as defined in the Agreement)) shall be converted into the right to receive, at the election of the of the holder thereof (subject to proration and reallocation as set forth in the Agreement, as to which we express no opinion), either: (i) $12.50 in cash (the “Cash Consideration”) or (ii) 0.7911 of a share of PCBK Common Stock (the “Stock Consideration”); provided that the Agreement provides that such shares of FDNB Common Stock shall be converted into the right to receive Cash Consideration in an aggregate amount equal to $19,334,017.50 and that any shares of FDNB Common Stock not converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration. The Cash Consideration and the Stock Consideration, taken together, are referred to herein as the “Merger Consideration.” The terms and conditions of the Merger are more fully set forth in the Agreement.

The Agreement further provides that, as soon as practicable following the closing of the Merger or on such other time or date as may be determined by PCBK, Foundation Bank will merge with and into Pacific Bank, pursuant to a separate agreement to be entered into by and between Foundation Bank and Pacific Bank following the execution and delivery of the Agreement (such transaction, the “Bank Merger”). In addition, we have been advised by representatives of FDNB that FDNB will make a cash payment to the holders of Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock, prior to the Effective Time, in an aggregate amount estimated by FDNB to be approximately $3.5 million (the “Change of Control Payment”), as further described in the Agreement. With the consent of FDNB we have assumed, for purposes of certain of our analyses in all respects material thereto, the occurrence of the Change of Control Payment.

KBW has acted as financial advisor to FDNB and not as an advisor to or agent of any other person. As part of our investment banking business, we are continually engaged in the valuation of bank and bank holding company securities in connection with acquisitions, negotiated underwritings, secondary distributions of listed and unlisted securities, private placements and valuations for various other purposes. As specialists in the securities of banking companies, we have experience in, and knowledge of, the valuation of banking enterprises. In the ordinary course of their broker-dealer businesses, KBW and its affiliates may from time to time purchase securities from, and sell securities to, FDNB and PCBK, and as a market maker in securities, KBW and its affiliates may from time to time have a long or short position in, and buy or sell, debt or equity securities of FDNB or PCBK for their own accounts and for the accounts of their respective customers and clients. We have acted exclusively for the board of directors of FDNB (the “Board”) in rendering this opinion and will receive a fee from FDNB for our services. A portion of our fee is payable upon the rendering of this opinion, and a significant portion is contingent upon the successful completion of the Merger. In addition, FDNB has agreed to indemnify us for certain liabilities arising out of our engagement.

In addition to this present engagement, in the past two years, KBW has provided investment banking and financial advisory services to FDNB and received compensation for such services. KBW acted as placement agent to FDNB in connection with FDNB’s private placement of convertible preferred stock in March 2015. In the past two years, KBW has not provided investment banking and financial advisory services to PCBK. We may in the future provide investment banking and financial advisory services to FDNB or PCBK and receive compensation for such services.

In connection with this opinion, we have reviewed, analyzed and relied upon material bearing upon the financial and operating condition of FDNB and PCBK and bearing upon the Merger, including among other things, the following: (i) a draft of the Agreement dated April 20, 2016 (the most recent draft made available to us); (ii) the audited financial statements for the three fiscal years ended December 31, 2015 of FDNB; (iii) the audited financial statements and Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the three fiscal years ended December 31, 2015 of PCBK; (iv) certain unaudited quarterly financial results for the period ended March 31, 2016 of FDNB (as set forth in the FDNB publicly-available press release dated April 20, 2016); (v) certain unaudited quarterly financial results for the period ended March 31, 2016 of PCBK (contained in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by PCBK with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 20, 2016); (vi) certain regulatory filings of FDNB, Foundation Bank, PCBK and Pacific Bank, including (as applicable) the annual reports on Form Y-6, semi-annual reports on Form FR Y-9SP, quarterly reports on Form FR Y-9C and quarterly call reports filed with respect to each period applicable to such reports during the three year period ended December 31, 2015 and, in the case of Pacific Bank, the quarter ended March 31, 2016; (vii) certain other interim reports and other communications of FDNB and PCBK to their respective shareholders; and (viii) other financial information concerning the businesses and operations of FDNB and PCBK that was furnished to us by FDNB and PCBK or which we were otherwise directed to use for purposes of our analyses. Our consideration of financial information and other factors that we deemed appropriate under the circumstances or relevant to our analyses included, among others, the following: (i) the historical and current financial position and results of operations of FDNB and PCBK; (ii) the assets and liabilities of FDNB and PCBK; (iii) the nature and terms of certain other merger transactions and business combinations in the banking industry; (iv) a comparison of certain financial and stock market information for FDNB and PCBK with similar information for certain other companies the securities of which are publicly traded; (v) financial and operating forecasts and projections of FDNB that were prepared by, and provided to us and discussed with us by, FDNB management and that were used and relied upon by us at the direction of such management and with the consent of the Board; (vi) publicly available consensus “street estimates” of PCBK for 2016 and 2017, as well as assumed long term PCBK growth rates provided to us by PCBK management, all of which information was discussed with us by such management and used and relied upon by us based on such discussions, at the direction of FDNB management and with the consent of the Board; and (vii) estimates regarding certain pro forma financial effects of the Merger on PCBK (including, without

limitation, the cost savings and related expenses expected to result or be derived from the Merger) that were prepared by PCBK management, and provided to and discussed with us by such management, and used and relied upon by us based on such discussions, at the direction of FDNB management and with the consent of the Board. We have also performed such other studies and analyses as we considered appropriate and have taken into account our assessment of general economic, market and financial conditions and our experience in other transactions, as well as our experience in securities valuation and knowledge of the banking industry generally. We have also participated in discussions with the managements of FDNB and PCBK regarding the past and current business operations, regulatory relations, financial condition and future prospects of their respective companies and such other matters as we have deemed relevant to our inquiry. In addition, we have considered the results of the efforts undertaken by or on behalf of FDNB, with our assistance, to solicit indications of interest from third parties regarding a potential transaction with FDNB.

In conducting our review and arriving at our opinion, we have relied upon and assumed the accuracy and completeness of all of the financial and other information provided to us or that was publicly available and we have not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of any such information or assumed any responsibility or liability for such verification, accuracy or completeness. We have relied upon management of FDNB as to the reasonableness and achievability of the financial and operating forecasts and projections of FDNB (and the assumptions and bases therefor) that were prepared by, and provided to us and discussed with us by, such management and we have assumed that such forecasts and projections were reasonably prepared on a basis reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments of such management and that such forecasts and projections will be realized in the amounts and in the time periods currently estimated by such management. We have further relied, with the consent of FDNB, upon PCBK management as to the reasonableness and achievability of the publicly available consensus “street estimates” of PCBK and the long term PCBK growth rates that were provided to and discussed with us by PCBK management, as well as the estimates regarding certain pro forma financial effects of the Merger on PCBK (and the assumptions and bases therefor, including, without limitation, the cost savings and related expenses expected to result or be derived from the Merger) referred to above and we have assumed, with the consent of FDNB, that all such information was reasonably prepared on a basis reflecting, or in the case of the publicly available consensus “street estimates” of PCBK referred to above were consistent with, the best currently available estimates and judgments of PCBK management and that the forecasts, projections and estimates reflected in such information will be realized in the amounts and in the time periods currently estimated.

It is understood that the forecasts, projections, and estimates of FDNB and PCBK that were provided to us were not prepared with the expectation of public disclosure and that all of such forecasts, projections, and estimates, together with the publicly available consensus “street estimates” of PCBK referred to above that we were directed to use, are based on numerous variables and assumptions that are inherently uncertain, including, without limitation, factors related to general economic and competitive conditions and that, accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from those set forth in such information. We have assumed, based on discussions with the respective managements of FDNB and PCBK and with the consent of the Board, that all such information provides a reasonable basis upon which we could form our opinion and we express no view as to any such information or the assumptions or bases therefor. We have relied on all such information without independent verification or analysis and do not in any respect assume any responsibility or liability for the accuracy or completeness thereof. We also assumed that there were no material changes in the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business or prospects of either FDNB or PCBK since the date of the last financial statements of each such entity that were made available to us. We are not experts in the independent verification of the adequacy of allowances for loan and lease losses and we have assumed, without independent verification and with your consent, that the aggregate allowances for loan and lease losses for FDNB and PCBK are adequate to cover such losses. In rendering our opinion, we have not made or obtained any evaluations or appraisals or physical inspection of the property, assets or liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of FDNB or

PCBK, the collateral securing any of such assets or liabilities, or the collectability of any such assets, nor have we examined any individual loan or credit files, nor did we evaluate the solvency, financial capability or fair value of FDNB or PCBK under any state or federal laws, including those relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or other matters. Estimates of values of companies and assets do not purport to be appraisals or necessarily reflect the prices at which companies or assets may actually be sold. Because such estimates are inherently subject to uncertainty, we assume no responsibility or liability for their accuracy.

We have assumed, in all respects material to our analyses, the following: (i) that the Merger will be completed substantially in accordance with the terms set forth in the Agreement (the final terms of which we have assumed will not differ in any respect material to our analyses from the draft reviewed and referred to above) with no adjustments to the Merger Consideration (including the allocation among cash and stock) and with no other payments in respect of the FDNB Common Stock; (ii) that any related transactions (including the Bank Merger and the Change of Control Payment) will be completed substantially in accordance with the terms set forth in the Agreement or as described to us by representatives of FDNB; (iii) that the representations and warranties of each party in the Agreement and in all related documents and instruments referred to in the Agreement are true and correct; (iv) that each party to the Agreement and all related documents will perform all of the covenants and agreements required to be performed by such party under such documents; (v) that there are no factors that would delay any necessary regulatory or governmental approval for the Merger or any related transaction or cause any necessary regulatory or governmental approval for the Merger or any related transaction to be subject to any adverse conditions, and that all conditions to the completion of the Merger and any related transaction will be satisfied without any waivers or modifications to the Agreement; and (vi) that in the course of obtaining the necessary regulatory, contractual, or other consents or approvals for the Merger and any related transaction, no restrictions, including any divestiture requirements, termination or other payments or amendments or modifications, will be imposed that will have a material adverse effect on the future results of operations or financial condition of FDNB, PCBK, the combined entity, or the contemplated benefits of the Merger, including the cost savings and related expenses expected to result or be derived from the Merger. We have assumed, in all respects material to our analyses, that the Merger will be consummated in a manner that complies with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and all other applicable federal and state statutes, rules and regulations. We have further been advised by representatives of FDNB that FDNB has relied upon advice from its advisors (other than KBW) or other appropriate sources as to all legal, financial reporting, tax, accounting and regulatory matters with respect to FDNB, PCBK, the Merger, any related transaction (including the Bank Merger and the Change of Control Payment), and the Agreement. KBW has not provided advice with respect to any such matters.

This opinion addresses only the fairness, from a financial point of view, as of the date hereof, to the holders of FDNB Common Stock of the Merger Consideration to be received by such holders in the Merger. We express no view or opinion as to any other terms or aspects of the Merger or any term or aspect of any related transaction (including the Bank Merger and the Change of Control Payment), including without limitation, the form or structure of the Merger (including the form of Merger Consideration or the allocation thereof between cash and stock) or any related transaction, any consequences of the Merger or any related transaction to FDNB, its shareholders, creditors or otherwise, or any terms, aspects, merits or implications of any employment, consulting, voting, support, shareholder or other agreements, arrangements or understandings contemplated or entered into in connection with the Merger or otherwise. Our opinion is necessarily based upon conditions as they exist and can be evaluated on the date hereof and the information made available to us through the date hereof. It is understood that subsequent developments may affect the conclusion reached in this opinion and that KBW does not have an obligation to update, revise or reaffirm this opinion. Our opinion does not address, and we express no view or opinion with respect to, (i) the underlying business decision of FDNB to engage in the Merger or enter into the Agreement; (ii) the relative merits of the Merger as compared to any strategic alternatives that are, have been or may be available to or contemplated by FDNB or the Board; (iii) the fairness of the amount or nature of any

compensation to any of FDNB’s officers, directors or employees, or any class of such persons, relative to the compensation to the holders of FDNB Common Stock; (iv) the effect of the Merger or any related transaction on, or the fairness of the consideration to be received by, holders of any class of securities of FDNB (other than the holders of FDNB Common Stock solely with respect to the Merger Consideration, as described herein and not relative to the consideration to be received by holders of any other class of securities) or holders of any class of securities of PCBK or any other party to any transaction contemplated by the Agreement; (v) whether PCBK has sufficient cash, available lines of credit or other sources of funds to enable it to pay the aggregate amount of the Cash Consideration to the holders of FDNB Common Stock at the closing of the Merger; (vi) the election by holders of FDNB Common Stock to receive the Cash Consideration or the Stock Consideration, or any combination thereof, or the actual allocation between the Cash Consideration and the Stock Consideration among such holders (including, without limitation, any reallocation thereof as a result of proration pursuant to the Agreement), or the relative fairness of the Stock Consideration and the Cash Consideration; (vii) any adjustment (as provided in the Agreement) to the Merger Consideration assumed to be paid in the Merger for purposes of our opinion; (viii) the actual value of PCBK Common Stock to be issued in the Merger; (ix) the prices, trading range or volume at which FDNB Common Stock or PCBK Common Stock will trade following the public announcement of the Merger; (x) the prices, trading range or volume at which PCBK Common Stock will trade following the consummation of the Merger; (xi) whether FDNB has sufficient cash, available lines of credit or other sources of funds to enable it to pay the Change of Control Payment; (xii) any advice or opinions provided by any other advisor to any of the parties to the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by the Agreement; or (xiii) any legal, regulatory, accounting, tax or similar matters relating to FDNB, PCBK, their respective shareholders, or relating to or arising out of or as a consequence of the Merger or any related transaction (including the Bank Merger and the Change of Control Payment), including whether or not the Merger would qualify as a tax-free reorganization for United States federal income tax purposes.

This opinion is for the information of, and is directed to, the Board (in its capacity as such) in connection with its consideration of the financial terms of the Merger. This opinion does not constitute a recommendation to the Board as to how it should vote on the Merger, or to any holder of FDNB Common Stock or any shareholder of any other entity as to how to vote in connection with the Merger or any other matter (including, with respect to holders of FDNB Common Stock, what election any such shareholder should make with respect to the Cash Consideration, the Stock Consideration or any combination thereof), nor does it constitute a recommendation regarding whether or not any such shareholder should enter into a voting, shareholders’, or affiliates’ agreement with respect to the Merger or exercise any dissenters’ or appraisal rights that may be available to such shareholder.

This opinion has been reviewed and approved by our Fairness Opinion Committee in conformity with our policies and procedures established under the requirements of Rule 5150 of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that, as of the date hereof, the Merger Consideration to be received by the holders of FDNB Common Stock in the Merger is fair, from a financial point of view, to such holders.

Very truly yours,

PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Item 20. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

The registrant, Pacific Continental (“Pacific Continental” or the “registrant”), is a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Oregon. Sections 60.387 through 60.414 of the OBCA contain specific provisions relating to indemnification of directors and officers of Oregon corporations. In general, the statute provides that (i) a corporation shall indemnify a director or officer who was wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which the director or officer was a party because of such status as a director or officer, unless limited by the articles of incorporation, and (ii) a corporation may indemnify a director or officer against liability incurred in a proceeding to which the individual was made a party because the individual is or was a director or officer, if it is determined as provided in the statute that the director or officer meets a certain standard of conduct, provided that the corporation may not indemnify a director or officer in connection with a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation in which the director or officer was judged liable to the corporation or a proceeding that charged the director or officer with and adjudged the director or officer liable for improperly receiving a personal benefit. The statute also permits a director or officer of a corporation who is a party to a proceeding to apply to the courts for indemnification or advance of expenses, unless the articles of incorporation provide otherwise, and the court may order indemnification or advancement of expenses under certain circumstances set forth in the statute. The statute further provides that a corporation may in its articles of incorporation or bylaws or by resolution provide indemnification in addition to that provided by statute, subject to certain conditions set forth in the statute. In addition, the statute provides that a corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of a director or officer against liability asserted against or incurred by the individual even if the corporation has no power to indemnify the individual against the same liability.

Pacific Continental’s second amended and restated articles of incorporation provide, among other things, for the mandatory indemnification of directors and officer-directors in connection with any personal legal liability, including judgments, penalties, fines, settlement, and reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the individual by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer-director, unless the liability and expenses were on account of conduct finally adjudged to have been “egregious” conduct. “Egregious” conduct is defined in the second amended and restated articles of incorporation as acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct, a knowing violation of law, participation in any transaction from which the person will personally receive a benefit in money, property or services to which that person is not legally entitled, an unlawful distribution under the OBCA, and conduct for which the person is adjudged liable to the corporation. The second amended and restated articles of incorporation also provide for the mandatory advancement of reasonable expenses incurred, in advance of the disposition of the action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt by the Pacific Continental of a written, unsecured promise by the person to repay such amounts advanced if it is finally adjudged that the person is not eligible for indemnification.

Item 21. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules

(a) The exhibits required by this item are set forth on the Exhibit Index attached hereto.

Item 22. Undertakings

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which it offers or sells securities, 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, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement; and

(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;

(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 the 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 registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to 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) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to deliver or cause to be delivered with the prospectus, to each person to whom the prospectus is sent or given, the latest annual report to security holders that is incorporated by reference in the prospectus and furnished pursuant to and meeting the requirements of Rule 14a-3 or Rule 14c-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; and, where interim financial information required to be presented by Article 3 of Regulation S-X are not set forth in the prospectus, to deliver, or cause to be delivered to each person to whom the prospectus is sent or given, the latest quarterly report that is specifically incorporated by reference in the prospectus to provide such interim financial information.

(d) (1) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes as follows: that prior to any public reoffering of the securities registered hereunder through use of a prospectus which is a part of this registration statement, by any person or party who is deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Rule 145(c), the issuer undertakes that such reoffering prospectus will contain the information called for by the applicable registration form with respect to reofferings by persons who may be deemed underwriters, in addition to the information called for by the other items of the applicable form.

(2) The registrant undertakes that every prospectus: (i) that is filed pursuant to paragraph (1) immediately preceding, or (ii) that purports to meet the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of the Act and is used in connection with an offering of securities subject to Rule 415, will be filed as a part of an amendment to the registration statement and will not be used until such amendment is effective, and that, for purposes 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.

(e) 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 Securities and Exchange Commission 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.

Table of Contents

(f) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to Item 4, 10(b), 11, or 13 of this Form, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request.

(g) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement when it became effective.

Pacific Continental Corporation

Eugene, Oregon 97401

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to Pacific Continental Corporation, an Oregon corporation (“PCC”), in connection with the merger (the “Merger”) of Foundation Bancorp, Inc., a Washington corporation (“FB”), with and into PCC, with PCC continuing as the surviving corporation, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Agreement”), dated as of April 26, 2016, by and among PCC, Pacific Continental Bank, FB and Foundation Bank. Terms used but not defined herein have the meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement.

In connection therewith, we have assisted in the preparation of the Prospectus/Proxy Statement that forms part of the Registration Statement filed by PCC with the SEC.

For purposes of rendering this opinion we have examined and are relying upon (without any independent investigation or review) the truth, correctness and completeness at all relevant times of the statements, covenants, representations and warranties contained in the Agreement, letters dated the date hereof delivered to us by PCC and by FB containing their respective tax-related representations (the “Tax Representation Letters”), the Prospectus/Proxy Statement (as amended or supplemented through the date hereof), the Registration Statement (as amended or supplemented through the date hereof) and such other instruments and documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate.

Further, for purposes of rendering this opinion we have made the following assumptions (without any independent investigation or review):

(a) original documents submitted to us (including signatures) are authentic, documents submitted to us as copies conform to the original documents and all such documents either have been or will be by the Effective Time duly and validly executed and delivered where such execution and delivery are prerequisites to effectiveness;

(b) the Merger will be consummated in the manner described in the Prospectus/Proxy Statement and the Registration Statement and in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement;

(c) all representations, warranties and statements made or agreed to by PCC and FB or by their respective managements, officers and directors in connection with the Merger, including but not limited to those set forth in the Agreement, the Tax Representation Letters, the Prospectus/Proxy Statement (including the purposes of PCC and FB for consummating the Merger) and the Registration Statement are true, correct and complete at all relevant times (including in updated Tax Representation Letters executed by appropriate officers of PCC and FB, respectively, as of the Effective Time), and any such representation, warranty or statement (i) relating to the absence of any plan, intention, understanding or agreement signifies that there is, in fact, no such plan, intention, understanding or agreement and/or (ii) qualified by belief or knowledge (or similarly qualified) is true, correct and complete without such qualification;

(d) the transactions, conditions, covenants and agreements contained in the Agreement and the Tax Representation Letters will be performed without waiver or breach of any material provision; and

(e) PCC and FB and their respective subsidiaries will treat the Merger for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and will report the Merger on their respective U.S. federal income tax returns, in a manner consistent with the opinion set forth below.

If any of the above described assumptions are untrue for any reason or if the transaction is consummated in a manner that is different from the manner described in the Agreement, the Prospectus/Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement, our opinion as expressed below may be adversely affected.

Based solely on the information, and subject to the assumptions, qualifications and limitations, set forth herein and in the Prospectus/Proxy Statement and the Registration Statement, we hereby confirm that the discussion contained in the Prospectus/Proxy Statement under the heading “Material Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger,” to the extent such discussion expresses conclusions as to the application of U.S. federal income tax law, constitutes our opinion.

The opinion expressed herein is based upon laws, judicial decisions and administrative regulations, rulings and practice, all as in effect on the date hereof and all of which are subject to change, either on a prospective or retroactive basis. The foregoing opinion is limited to the U.S. federal income tax matters addressed herein, and no other opinions are rendered with respect to other U.S. federal tax matters or to

any issues arising under the tax laws of any other country, or any state or locality. This opinion is expressed as of the date hereof, and we disclaim any undertaking to advise you of subsequent changes relating to matters considered herein or of any subsequent changes in applicable law.

In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to Foundation Bancorp, Inc. (“FB”), a Washington corporation, and Foundation Bank, a Washington state-chartered commercial bank (the “Bank”), in connection with the proposed merger of FB with and into Pacific Continental Corporation (“PCC”), an Oregon corporation (the “Merger”), whereupon the separate existence of FB shall cease and PCC shall be the surviving corporation. Immediately following the Merger, PCC intends that the Bank shall be merged with and into Pacific Continental Bank, an Oregon state-chartered commercial bank (“PCB”) with PCB being the resulting bank, and the separate corporate existence of the Bank shall cease (the “Bank Merger” and, together with the Merger, the “Mergers”) all pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 26, 2016 (the “Merger Agreement”), among FB, the Bank, PCC and PCB.

This opinion letter is being delivered in connection with, and appears as an exhibit to, the registration statement on Form S-4, including a joint proxy statement/prospectus (as amended through the date hereof, the “Registration Statement”) filed by PCC on this date with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). Unless otherwise defined, capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Merger Agreement.

In rendering the opinion set forth below:

(a) we have examined and relied upon the Registration Statement, the Merger Agreement and the exhibits thereto, the officer’s certificates of FB and PCC dated as of the date hereof (the “Representation Letters” and, together with the Merger Agreement and the Registration Statement, the “Transaction Documents”), and such other agreements, instruments, documents and records as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this opinion letter;

(b) we have assumed, without independent investigation or inquiry, (i) the authenticity and completeness of all documents submitted to us as originals, (ii) the genuineness of all signatures on all documents that we examined, (iii) the conformity to authentic originals and completeness of documents submitted to us as certified, conformed or reproduction copies, (iv) the legal capacity of all natural persons executing documents, (v) the due authorization, execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents, (vi) the valid existence and good standing of all parties to the Transaction Documents, and (vii) the enforceability of the Transaction Documents;

(c) we have assumed, with your permission, that (i) all covenants, representations and other undertakings set forth in the Transaction Documents have been or will be performed in accordance with the terms thereof, (ii) the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents have been or will be consummated in accordance with the terms thereof and will be effective under applicable state law, (iii) none of the material terms and conditions of the Transaction Documents have been or will be waived or modified, and (iv) there are no documents or understandings between the parties that would alter, or are inconsistent with, the terms set forth in the Transaction Documents;

(d) we have examined and relied upon, and have assumed, without independent investigation or inquiry, the accuracy of (both as of the date hereof and at the Effective Time), all statements regarding factual matters, representations and warranties contained in the Transaction Documents and the statements made in the certificates of officers and representatives of FB and PCC delivered to us, including the Representation Letters, we have assumed that the statements made in the Representation Letters will be repeated in updated Representation Letters executed by appropriate officers of FB and PCC, respectively, as of the Effective Time, and, with respect to any representations and warranties in any of the foregoing that are made “to the knowledge of” or “based on the belief” of FB or PCC or any other person or are similarly qualified, we have assumed that such representations and warranties are accurate, in each case without such qualification, and, as to all matters for which a person or entity has represented that such person or entity does not have any plan or intention, there is no such plan or intention; and

(e) we have assumed, with your permission, that PCC and FB and their respective subsidiaries will treat the Merger for United States federal income tax purposes, and will report the Merger on their respective United States federal income tax returns, in a manner consistent with the opinion set forth below.

No assurance can be given as to the effect on the opinion set forth below if any of the foregoing assumptions is or becomes inaccurate.

Based solely upon and subject to the foregoing and the limitations, qualifications and assumptions set forth herein and in the Registration Statement, we hereby confirm that the discussion contained in the Registration Statement under the heading “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger,” to the extent such discussion expresses conclusions as to the application of United States federal income tax law, constitutes our opinion.

This opinion is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the Treasury Regulations thereunder, and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, all as in effect on the date hereof. It should be noted that such laws, Treasury Regulations, judicial decisions, administrative interpretations and other authorities are subject to change at any time and, in some circumstances, with retroactive effect. A change in any of the authorities upon which our opinion is based, or any variation or difference in any fact from those set forth or assumed herein, could affect our conclusions herein. No assurance can be given that the Internal Revenue Service will agree with this opinion or that, if the Internal Revenue Service were to take a contrary position, such position would not ultimately be sustained by the courts.

We inform you that any United States federal tax advice contained in this opinion is limited to the one or more United States federal tax issues addressed in the opinion. Additional issues may exist that could affect the United States federal tax treatment of the Mergers that is the subject of this opinion and this opinion does not consider or provide a conclusion with respect to any additional issues. Other than as expressly stated above, we express no opinion regarding the tax treatment of the Mergers under the laws of the United States or any state or local government within the United States or under the laws of any foreign country. Additionally, we express no opinion regarding any other tax consequences of the transactions, or on any issue relating to FB, the Bank, PCC or PCB or, in each case, to any investment therein or under any other law.

The opinions set forth above are expressed as of the date hereof, and we disclaim any undertaking to advise you of any subsequent changes in the matters stated, represented or assumed herein or any subsequent changes in applicable law or interpretations thereof. We assume no obligation to update or supplement this letter to reflect any facts or circumstances which may hereafter come to our attention with respect to the opinions expressed above, including any changes in applicable law which may hereafter occur.

This opinion letter is rendered only as of the date hereof and could be affected by changes in facts, circumstances, law or the Merger Agreement, or other events or developments that hereafter may occur or be brought to our attention. We assume no responsibility to advise you or any other person of any such change, event or development.
