PROXY STATEMENT
INFORMATION CONCERNING THE SOLICITATION
This Proxy Statement is being furnished to the shareholders of FNB Bancorp, a California corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors for use at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) to be held at the Basque Cultural Center, 599 Railroad Avenue, South San Francisco, California, at 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, May 16, 2012. Only holders of record of the Company’s no par value common stock (the “Common Stock”) on April 9, 2012 (the “Record Date”), will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. At the close of business on the Record Date, the Company had outstanding and entitled to be voted 3,507,428 shares of Common Stock. The Company also has outstanding 12,600 shares of its Senior Fixed Rate Non - Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series C, held by the United States Department of the Treasury. None of such shares of Preferred Stock are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.
Shareholders may vote their shares by mail without attending the Annual Meeting, whether their shares of Common Stock are held in their names or through a broker, bank or other nominee. Instructions for voting by mail are set forth on the enclosed proxy card. For shares held through a broker, bank or other nominee, shareholders may vote by submitting their voting instructions to the broker, bank or other nominee. Voting instructions may be given by mail, by telephone or by using the Internet, if the broker, bank or other nominee makes those methods available to the shareholder, in which case the procedures will be enclosed with the Proxy Statement forwarded by the broker, bank or other nominee.
The presence in person or by proxy of a majority of the shares entitled to vote is necessary to constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum. “Broker non-votes” are shares held in “street name” by brokers or nominees who are present in person or represented by proxy, but which are not voted on a particular matter because under applicable rules the broker cannot vote on non-routine matters in the absence of instructions from the beneficial owner. The effect of abstentions and broker non-votes on the calculation of the required vote on specific proposals to be brought before the Annual Meeting is discussed under each proposal, where applicable.
1 |
Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held, except that for the election of directors each shareholder has cumulative voting rights and is entitled to as many votes as shall equal the number of shares held by such shareholder multiplied by the number of directors to be elected. Each shareholder may cast all of his or her votes for a single candidate or distribute such votes among any or all of the candidates as he or she chooses. However, no shareholder shall be entitled to cumulate votes (in other words, cast for any candidate a number of votes greater than the number of shares of stock held by such shareholder) unless such candidate’s name has been placed in nomination prior to the voting and the shareholder has given notice at the Annual Meeting prior to the voting of the shareholder’s intention to cumulate votes. If any shareholder has given such notice, all shareholders may cumulate their votes for candidates in nomination. Prior to voting, an opportunity will be given for shareholders or their proxies at the Annual Meeting to announce their intention to cumulate their votes. The proxy holders are given, under the terms of the proxy, discretionary authority to cumulate votes on shares for which they hold a proxy.
Any person giving a proxy in the form accompanying this Proxy Statement has the power to revoke that proxy prior to its exercise. The proxy may be revoked prior to the Annual Meeting by delivering to the Secretary of the Company either a written instrument revoking the proxy or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date. The proxy may also be revoked by the shareholder by attending and voting in person at the Annual Meeting. The proxy will be voted as directed by the shareholder giving the proxy and if no directions are given on the proxy, the proxy will be voted “FOR” the election of the nominees of the Board of Directors; “FOR” approval of the Company’s executive compensation; “FOR” the frequency of the future “Say on Pay” votes every three years; and “FOR” ratification of the appointment of Moss Adams LLP as independent auditors of the Company to serve for the 2012 fiscal year, and at the proxy holders’ discretion, on such other matters, if any, which may come before the Annual Meeting (including any proposal to adjourn the meeting).
The Company will bear the entire cost of preparing, assembling, printing and mailing proxy materials furnished by the Board of Directors to shareholders. Copies of proxy materials will be furnished to brokerage houses, fiduciaries and custodians to be forwarded to the beneficial owners of the Common Stock. The Company will reimburse brokerage houses, fiduciaries, custodians and others holding Common Stock in their names or names of nominees or otherwise for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in sending proxy materials to the beneficial owners of such Common Stock. In addition to the solicitation of proxies by use of the mail, some of the officers, directors and regular employees of the Company may (without additional compensation) solicit proxies by telephone, Internet or personal interview, the costs of which will be borne by the Company.

PROPOSAL NO. 1
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY
The Bylaws of the Company provide a procedure for nomination for election of members of the Board of Directors, which procedure is printed in full in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders accompanying this Proxy Statement. Nominations not made in accordance therewith may be disregarded by the Chairwoman of the Meeting, and upon her instructions the inspectors of election may disregard all votes cast for such nominee(s).
The Bylaws of the Company provide that the Board of Directors shall consist of not less than six nor more than eleven directors, the exact number to be fixed and determined from time to time by resolution of a majority of the full Board of Directors or by resolution of a majority of the shareholders at any annual or special meeting thereof. The authorized number of directors has been fixed by resolution of the Board of Directors at nine (9). Currently, there are nine (9) members serving on the Board of Directors. The directors to be elected at the Annual Meeting shall hold office for one year and until their successors are elected and have qualified. The nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote for them shall be elected as directors. Only votes cast “FOR” a nominee will be counted in determining whether that nominee has been elected as a director. Broker non-votes will not be included in the vote total.
All proxies will be voted for the election of the following nine (9) nominees recommended by the Board of Directors, unless authority to vote for the election of any director or directors is withheld by the shareholder on the proxy card. All of the nominees are incumbent Directors. If any nominee should unexpectedly decline or be unable to act as a director, the proxies may be voted for a substitute nominee to be designated by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any nominee will become unavailable and has no present intention to nominate persons in addition to or in lieu of those named below.
The following table sets forth information with respect to beneficial ownership of the Common Stock of the Company by those persons nominated by the Board of Directors for election as directors, as well as all directors and executive officers of FNB Bancorp and its subsidiary, First National Bank of Northern California, a national banking association (herein called the “Bank”), as a group.

The Board’s Role in Enterprise Risk Oversight
Our Board is responsible for overseeing risk management for the Company. Our management is responsible for the day-to-day management of these risks. The Asset Liability Committee (“ALCO”) is responsible for the management of interest rate risks across the Company. The Chief Operations Officer is responsible for managing the operations risk of the Company. The Chief Financial Officer, the Chief Operating Officer, the Chief Executive Officer, and the Chief Credit Officer are part of ALCO. On a quarterly basis, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer provides a comprehensive interest rate risk report to ALCO. The Board also engages in periodic discussions with all the executive officers as the Board may deem appropriate related to risk management.
The Board assumes oversight responsibility for all areas of risk and risk management. The risks and management activities designed to mitigate those risks are discussed at length at monthly Board meetings. In addition to its role in oversight of all risks across the Company, the Board also oversees ALCO, which has specific responsibility for oversight of financial risks, including liquidity risk and interest rate risk.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
The Directors are elected annually by the shareholders to oversee their interest in the success of the commercial banking business of the Company and the Bank. The Board of Directors, in turn, selects and oversees the members of senior management who are charged with conducting the business of the Company and the Bank under applicable standards of safety and soundness.
Ethical Standards
The Directors believe that the business of the Company and the Bank should be conducted in accordance with the highest ethical standards and in compliance with all laws, rules and regulations applicable to the Company and the Bank. In keeping with this belief, the Board of Directors has adopted a Code of Ethics, which applies to the members of the Board of Directors and all of the officers and employees of the Company and the Bank. A copy of the Code of Ethics is available to all shareholders on the Company’s website.
Director Independence
The Board of Directors of the Company has evaluated the independence of each of the members of the Board of Directors in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, including the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. For purposes of evaluating the independence of each member of the Board of Directors, the Board of Directors has adopted the definitions of director independence specified in the Nasdaq listing standards (although the Common Stock of the Company is not listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market).
The Board of Directors has determined that a majority of the Board of Directors is comprised of “Independent Directors” within the requirements of the foregoing laws, rules and regulations and listing standards. The Board of Directors has further determined that Directors Thomas C. McGraw, Jim D. Black and Anthony J. Clifford, who are employed as the Chief Executive Officer, the President and the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, respectively, of the Company and the Bank, are not independent.
Committees of the Board of Directors
During 2011, the Company and First National Bank each had the same Board committees and director-members. Each committee meeting is conducted on behalf of the Company as well as the Bank, regardless of whether the subject may apply to both or only one entity. The committees and their members were as follows:
Audit Committee. The current members are Edward J. Watson, Chair; Ronald R. Barels D.D.S. and Merrie Turner Lightner.

The members of the Company Audit Committee select and oversee the Company’s independent public accountants, analyze the results of internal and regulatory examinations and monitor the financial and accounting organization, reporting and controls. Each member of the Audit Committee is “independent” as defined under applicable rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Edward J. Watson has been designated by the Board of Directors as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined under applicable rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Reference should be made to the Audit Committee Report set forth below in this Proxy Statement for additional information regarding the functions of the Audit Committee.
A majority of the members of the Company’s Board of Directors, each of whom is “independent” as defined under applicable rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, has established procedures for receipt and delivery of shareholder communications addressed to the Board of Directors. Any such shareholder communications, including communications by employees of the Company solely in their capacity as shareholders, should be mailed or delivered to the Company addressed as follows: Board of Directors, FNB Bancorp, 975 El Camino Real, South San Francisco, CA 94080.
12 |
In performing the functions of the Company Nominating Committee, the Board of Directors has responsibility for considering appropriate candidates as directors. The Board of Directors believes that the participation of the full Board of Directors in considering candidates is efficient in view of the size of the Board of Directors. Candidates are selected by a majority of directors who are “independent” as defined under applicable rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, in accordance with a Nominating Committee Charter adopted by a majority of such independent directors. The Nominating Committee Charter includes a policy for consideration of candidates proposed by shareholders. Any recommendations by shareholders will be evaluated by the Board of Directors in the same manner as any other recommendation and in each case in accordance with the Nominating Committee Charter. Shareholders that desire to recommend candidates for consideration by the Company’s Board of Directors should mail or deliver written recommendations to the Company addressed as follows: Board of Directors, FNB Bancorp, 975 El Camino Real, South San Francisco, CA 94080. Each recommendation should include biographical information indicating the background and experience of the candidate that qualifies the candidate for consideration as a director for evaluation by the Board of Directors. In addition to minimum standards of independence for non-employee directors and financial literacy, the Board of Directors considers various other criteria including the candidate’s experience and expertise, financial resources, ability to devote the time and effort necessary to fulfill the responsibilities of a director and involvement in community activities in the market areas served by the Company and First National Bank that may enhance the reputation of the Company and the Bank. The Company and the Bank operate in a highly regulated industry and are subject to the supervision, regulation and periodic examination by state and federal banking regulatory authorities including the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Directors of the Company and the Bank are subject to certain rules and regulations and potential liabilities not otherwise applicable to directors of non-banking organizations. Consequently, evaluation of candidates by the Company’s Board of Directors may include more extensive inquiries into personal background information including confirmation of the accuracy and completeness of background information by (a) requiring candidates to complete questionnaires to elicit information of the type required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or such federal banking regulatory authorities, (b) conducting background investigations by qualified independent organizations experienced in conducting criminal and civil investigatory reviews, and (c) such other personal and financial reviews and analyses as the Board of Directors may deem appropriate in connection with the consideration of candidates. Shareholders who wish to nominate a candidate for election to the Company’s Board of Directors, as opposed to recommending a potential nominee for consideration by the Board of Directors, are required to comply with the advance notice and any other requirements of the Company’s Bylaws, applicable laws and regulations. The Board of Directors may elect to use third parties in the future to identify or evaluate candidates for consideration by the Board of Directors. A copy of the Nominating Committee Charter is available on the Company’s website at: http://www.fnbnorcal.com under “Investor Relations.”
The principal functions of the Audit Committee are (1) to examine and review both internal audit controls and regulatory audit reports and to meet with the Bank’s auditors concerning audit procedures and controls and (2) to monitor the Bank’s investment activities. A copy of the Audit Committee Charter is available on the Company’s website at: http://www.fnbnorcal.com under “Investor Relations.”
13 |
The principal functions of the Loan and Discount Committee are to oversee loans and investments and the routine operations of First National Bank by delegation from the Board of Directors and to advise and report to the entire Board of Directors regarding such matters.
The Compensation Committee investigates and advises the Board of Directors as to employee benefit arrangements and conducts executive searches whenever First National Bank proposes to hire executive personnel. The Compensation Committee also reports to the Board of Directors with regard to executive compensation, including bonus compensation. A copy of the Compensation Committee Charter is available on the Company’s website at: http://www.fnbnorcal.com under “Investor Relations.”
The Executive Committee meets periodically as necessary or appropriate between meetings of the Board of Directors, to discuss matters affecting the Company and the Bank.

See Notes to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 for discussion of the assumptions related to the calculation of the grant date fair value of stock options.
(2) The Company does not make Stock Awards nor does it have a Non-Equity Incentive Compensation Plan for non-officer (independent) directors. Non-officer directors do not participate in the Deferred Compensation Plan.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), requires the Company’s directors and executive officers and any persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of Common Stock and other equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and any greater than 10% shareholders are required by the SEC to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
On March 15, 2002, the Company registered its common stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, at which time the Company’s directors, officers and any person who owned more than 10% of such common stock became subject to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.
To the Company’s knowledge, based solely on a review of such reports furnished to the Company and written representations that no other reports were required, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and any greater than 10% shareholders were complied with on a timely basis.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS
The Company has a policy that it does not enter into any transactions covered under Item 404 of Regulation S-K with the exception of loans made by First National Bank (see “Indebtedness of Management,” below). There have been no other transactions, or series of similar transactions, during 2011, or any currently proposed transaction, or series of similar transactions, to which the Company or the Bank was or is to be a party, in which the amount involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000 and in which any director, director-nominee or executive officer of the Company or Bank, or any shareholder owning of record or beneficially 5% or more of FNB Bancorp common stock, or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons, had, or will have, a direct or indirect material interest. Loans were made, in the ordinary course of business and on substantially the same terms, including interest rate and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable loans with persons not related to the lender.
Indebtedness of Management
Through its banking subsidiary, First National Bank, the Company has had, and expects in the future to have banking transactions, including loans and other extensions of credit, in the ordinary course of its business with many of the Company’s directors and officers and their associates, including transactions with corporations of which such persons are directors, officers or controlling shareholders, on substantially the same terms (including interest rates and collateral) as those prevailing for comparable transactions with others. Management believes that in 2011 such transactions comprising loans did not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features. Loans to executive officers of First National Bank are subject to limitations as to amount and purposes prescribed in part by the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, and the regulations of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
Compensation Philosophy and Objectives
The Company’s compensation programs and policies are designed to enhance shareholder value by aligning the financial interests of the executive officers with those of the shareholders. The Company competes with other financial institutions by seeking to attract and retain a highly qualified management team, utilizing compensation programs that reward superior performance. The Board of Directors of the Company believes that its compensation programs should:
• reflect the qualifications, skills, experience and responsibilities of each officer on the management team;
• serve to attract and retain the most qualified individuals available to the Company by being competitive with the compensation being paid to persons having similar positions and responsibilities with other financial institutions in the same or adjoining market areas;
• provide each officer on the management team with incentive and motivation to achieve his or her personal goals, both short term and long term, set in a manner which is consistent with the overall strategic goals of the Company, as determined by the Board of Directors; and
• reward those officers whose performance, both individually and as a member of the management team, is superior.
The Company was formed in 2001 to become the holding company of the Bank. After approval by the shareholders of the Bank, the holding company reorganization became effective on March 15, 2002. No separate compensation has been paid to the executive officers of the Company since 2002. The compensation paid by the Bank to its executive officers includes payment for all services rendered by such officers to the Company, including their attendance at meetings of the Board of Directors and their attendance at meetings of committees of the Board of Directors of the Company.
17 |
The compensation of the executive officers of the Bank is reviewed and approved annually by the Board of Directors, including a review of base salaries and a discretionary bonus plan based on performance objectives. This review by the Board of Directors is based on the recommendations by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.
Three members of the Company and Bank Board of Directors are also executive officers of the Company and the Bank and all three abstain from the executive compensation decisions made by the Board of Directors. Thomas C. McGraw is Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank; Jim D. Black is President of the Company and the Bank; and Anthony J. Clifford is Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company and the Bank. Messrs. McGraw, Black and Clifford have served in such capacities since April 1, 2002. Mr. McGraw also served as Secretary of the Company (since inception of the corporation in 2001 until 2011) and the Bank from 1989 to 2011.
Salary, bonus and perquisite compensation are related to current performance. The long-term components of compensation (equity incentives in the form of stock options and post-termination benefits) are reviewed by the Board of Directors in the context of the other compensation provided to executives, but adjustments are not necessarily made each year. The grant of stock options and the award of post-termination benefits are primarily intended to attract and retain executive officers and other key employees to serve on the Company’s management team over an extended period of time, and only secondarily to reward current employment.
Stock Option Plans
Currently, the Company has three stock option plans: the FNB Bancorp Stock Option Plan (formerly the First National Bank of Northern California 1997 Stock Option Plan), the FNB Bancorp 2002 Stock Option Plan and the FNB Bancorp 2008 Stock Option Plan. No options have been granted under the FNB Bancorp Stock Option Plan since June 22, 2007, and no further options can be granted under the FNB Bancorp Stock Option Plan. Options are still available for grant under the FNB Bancorp 2002 Stock Option Plan and the FNB Bancorp 2008 Stock Option Plan. The stated purpose of the FNB Bancorp 2002 Stock Option Plan, as amended (adopted by the Board of Directors on June 28, 2002 and approved by the shareholders on May 14, 2003) and the FNB Bancorp 2008 Stock Option Plan (adopted by the Board of Directors on February 22, 2008 and approved by the shareholders on May 21, 2008) is to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility and to provide additional incentive to the key officers of the Company and the Bank by encouraging them to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company and, in general, to promote the success of the Company’s business. The Board of Directors believes that the grant of stock options is consistent with the best interests of the shareholders because an officer’s ownership of shares of Company stock will give such officer a long-term interest in the Company’s overall performance and success. Generally, stock options are granted to eligible employees in the second quarter of each fiscal (calendar) year.

FNB Bancorp Stock Option Plan. The Board of Directors of the Bank adopted the First National Bank of Northern California 1997 Stock Option Plan (the “Bank Stock Option Plan”), which was approved by the shareholders of First National Bank at the 1997 Annual Meeting, held on October 15, 1997. Pursuant to the holding company reorganization which became effective March 15, 2002, the Bank Stock Option Plan became the FNB Bancorp Stock Option Plan. As of December 31, 2011, a total of 27,313 shares were reserved for options previously granted and outstanding under the FNB Bancorp Stock Option Plan, including options for an aggregate of 14,038 shares of Common Stock (as adjusted for stock dividends paid in 2000 through 2011) which have been granted to the five officers of the Company identified in the “Summary Compensation Table” below. All such options granted and currently outstanding are incentive stock options, vesting at the rate of 20 percent per year over the period of 5 years from date of grant and are exercisable for a period of 10 years from the grant date, which were fully vested on the dates of grant and are exercisable (at a price of $23.90 per share for options granted in 2007) over a period of 10 years from the grant dates. Directors Angelot and Watson have been granted non-statutory stock options for an aggregate of 764 shares of Common Stock (as adjusted for stock dividends paid in 2000 through 2011).
Upon consummation of any plan of reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Company with one or more other banks or corporations as a result of which the Company is not the surviving entity, or upon the sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Company to another bank or corporation, then all outstanding unexercised options shall become immediately exercisable in accordance with the terms of the FNB Bancorp Stock Option Plan and the Plan shall terminate.
FNB Bancorp 2002 Stock Option Plan. The Board of Directors of the Company adopted the FNB Bancorp 2002 Stock Option Plan (the “2002 Plan”) on June 28, 2002, which was approved by the shareholders at the 2003 Annual Meeting, held on May 14, 2003. A total of 310,266 shares of Common Stock were reserved for issuance pursuant to the 2002 Plan (after giving effect to stock dividends through December 31, 2011). The 2002 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options (“Incentive Options”) and nonstatutory stock options (“Nonstatutory Options”). The terms and provisions of the Plan are substantially the same as the FNB Bancorp Stock Option Plan.
As of December 31, 2011, a total of 238,358 shares of Common Stock were reserved for options previously issued under the 2002 Plan (as adjusted for the Company’s 2002 through 2011 stock dividends). Options for an aggregate of 87,040 shares of Common Stock (adjusted for the stock dividends paid in 2002 through 2011) have been granted to the five officers of the Company identified in the “Summary Compensation Table” below pursuant to the 2002 Plan. All such options granted and currently outstanding under the 2002 Plan are incentive stock options, vesting at the rate of 20 percent per year over the period of 5 years from the date of grant and are exercisable for a period of 10 years from the grant date. Non-employee directors Angelot, Pacelli and Watson have been granted non-statutory stock options for an aggregate of 9,527 shares of Common Stock (adjusted for the stock dividends paid in 2002 through 2011) which were fully vested on the dates of grant and are exercisable (at a price of $16.88 per share for options granted in 2002, at a price of $16.12 per share for options granted in 2003, at a price of $22.00 per share for options granted in 2004, at a price of $21.36 per share for options granted in 2005, at a price of $27.05 for options granted in 2006 and at a price of $23.90 per share for options granted in 2007) over a period of 10 years from the grant dates.
19 |
Upon the dissolution, liquidation or sale of the Company, or a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving entity, outstanding options which would otherwise terminate in accordance with the 2002 Plan will become exercisable in full for such period as is determined by the Board of Directors of the Company or a Stock Option Committee appointed by the Board (but in any event not more than 15 days) prior to the consummation of such event. After the consummation of such an event, such outstanding options will terminate.
FNB Bancorp 2008 Stock Option Plan. The Board of Directors of the Company adopted the FNB Bancorp 2008 Stock Option Plan (the “2008 Plan”) on February 22, 2008, which was approved by the shareholders at the 2008 Annual Meeting, held on May 21, 2008. A total of 461,893 shares of Common Stock were reserved for issuance pursuant to the 2008 Plan (after giving effect to stock dividends through December 31, 2011). The 2008 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options (“Incentive Options”) and nonstatutory stock options (“Nonstatutory Options”). The terms and provisions of the Plan are substantially the same as the FNB Bancorp 2002 Stock Option Plan.
As of December 31, 2011, a total of 221,453 shares of Common Stock were reserved for options previously issued under the 2008 Plan (as adjusted for the Company’s 2008, 2009 and 2010 stock dividends). Options for an aggregate of 71,015 shares of Common Stock (adjusted for the stock dividends paid in 2008, 2009 and 2011) have been granted to the five officers of the Company identified in the “Summary Compensation Table” below pursuant to the 2008 Plan. All such options granted and currently outstanding under the 2008 Plan are incentive stock options, vesting at the rate of 20 percent per year over the period of 5 years from the date of grant and are exercisable for a period of 10 years from the grant date. Non-employee directors Angelot, Barels, Lightner, Pacelli and Watson have been granted non-statutory stock options for an aggregate of 13,216 shares of Common Stock (adjusted for the stock dividends paid in 2008, 2009 and 2011) which were fully vested on the dates of grant and are exercisable (at a price of $10.16 per share for options granted in 2008, at a price of $6.77 per share for options granted in 2009, and at a price of $13.05 per share for options granted in 2011, over a period of 10 years from the grant dates. No options were granted under the 2008 Plan in 2010.
Upon the dissolution, liquidation or sale of the Company, or a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving entity, outstanding options which would otherwise terminate in accordance with the 2008 Plan will become exercisable in full for such period as is determined by the Board of Directors of the Company or a Stock Option Committee appointed by the Board (but in any event not more than 15 days) prior to the consummation of such event. After the consummation of such an event, such outstanding options will terminate.

FNB Bancorp Savings Plan. On August 26, 1969, the Bank established The First National Bank Profit Sharing and 401(k) Plan (the “Plan”) under provisions which allow the Bank to make a contribution on behalf of each eligible employee. The Plan is now called the “FNB Bancorp Savings Plan.” Each year, the Board of Directors of the Bank decides whether to make a profit sharing contribution to the Plan, and the amount of that contribution. During 2011, the Plan was designated as a safe harbor plan. The safe harbor contribution to the Plan for 2011 was approximately $308,000. Each participant in the Plan who is employed on the last day of the Plan year receives a share of that contribution based on the amount of his or her compensation. The accounts of the participants vest according to a schedule of years of service with the Bank. Mass Mutual acts as Trustee for the Profit Sharing Plan Trust, and the Trustee invests all the assets of the Plan in four common trust funds maintained by the Trustee. On January 1, 1998, the Plan was amended to allow any eligible employee to make voluntary contributions to the Plan, and to direct the investment of such voluntary contributions from a menu of available options. Both the profit sharing provisions and the employee contribution provisions are elements of the Plan. The profit and safe harbor contributions to the Savings Plan are funded by the Bank, and are approved by the Board of Directors. The employee contribution element of the Plan is funded by the employee.
Each year, the Board of Directors of the Bank decides whether to designate the Plan as a safe harbor plan and whether to make a profit sharing contribution to the FNB Bancorp Savings Plan, and the amount of that contribution. Each participant in the Plan who is employed on the last day of the Plan year, including executive officers, receives a share of that contribution, based on the amount of his or her qualifying compensation. By funding the safe harbor and the profit sharing element of the Plan and also allowing employees to make their own contributions to the Plan, the Company believes that all participants are motivated to contribute to the ongoing success of the Bank as measured by its growth in assets, deposits, loans, capital, earnings and profitability.
Employment Contracts. There are no employment contracts between the Company or the Bank and the executive officers named in the tables below (other than the Salary Continuation Agreements, the Management Continuity Agreements, the Deferred Compensation Plan and the Company’s stock option plans). The Bank has established a Deferred Compensation Plan and participation is open to all officers of the Bank with the title of Vice President or higher, which includes the named executive officers. The funds contributed to the Plan are those of the individual participants, and represent income earned and/or bonuses granted as an employee of the Bank. No funds of the Bank may be contributed to the Plan. Additional information about the Deferred Compensation Plan is set forth below, and a summary of contributions, earnings and withdrawals in respect of the accounts of the named executive officers, is set forth in a table named “2011 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation” on page 29.
Role of Management
The annual compensation recommendations made to the Board of Directors by the Compensation Committee are based on data and information gathered from sources outside the Company and the Bank and additional input provided to the members of the Compensation Committee by the executive officers. The executive officers of the Bank during 2011 were: Thomas C. McGraw, Chief Executive Officer; Jim D. Black, President; Anthony J. Clifford, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer; David A. Curtis, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer; and Randy R. Brugioni, Senior Vice President and Chief Credit Officer. Input provided to the Compensation Committee is compiled and coordinated on behalf of all executive officers by an Executive Management Group, composed of Messrs. McGraw, Black and Clifford, who consult with the other executive officers during this process. As already indicated, Messrs. McGraw, Black and Clifford are members of the Company and Bank Board of Directors so they abstain from executive compensation decisions made by the Board.

Compensation Committee
The current members of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors are Edward J. Watson, Chair, Thomas G. Atwood, D.D.S. and Merrie Turner Lightner. Only independent members of the Board of Directors may serve on the Compensation Committee. Each current member of the Compensation Committee is “independent” as defined under applicable rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
The Compensation Committee advises the Board of Directors as to all employee benefit arrangements and, based on its investigations and review, reports to the Board of Directors on its recommendations with regard to executive compensation, including bonus compensation. The Compensation Committee’s philosophy is that compensation should be designed to reflect the value created for shareholders while supporting the Bank’s strategic goals. The Compensation Committee reviews the compensation of the executive officers twice a year to insure that the Bank’s compensation programs are related to long term financial performance and consistent generally with employers of comparable size in the industry. The Compensation Committee reviews each executive officer’s total compensation package, including base salary, cash bonus and stock option awards, and qualified and non-qualified retirement and deferred compensation benefits. The Compensation Committee also meets at least twice throughout the year in order to review year-to-date financial performance, as compared to budget and as compared to the financial performance of competitors, and generally to monitor the target total compensation of each executive officer. The Compensation Committee utilizes independent compensation reports to assist in the analysis of compensation packages but did not utilize the services of independent compensation consultants during 2011.
The Compensation Committee operates under a Compensation Committee Charter adopted by the Board of Directors. At least once a year, the Compensation Committee reviews and assesses the Charter and recommends any proposed changes to the Board of Directors for approval.
In 2009, the Company sold shares of its Series A and Series B Preferred Stock to the United States Department of the Treasury (“Treasury”), as part of the Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program. So long as the shares of Series A and Series B Preferred Stock remained outstanding, the Compensation Committee was required to provide an “EESA” certification as part of the Compensation Committee Report (see page 31).All of these shares were redeemed on September 15, 2011, utilizing funds derived from the issuance and sale of $12,600,000 of shares of the Company’s Senior Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series C, under the U. S. Treasury’s Small Business Lending Fund.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
During the year 2011, Thomas G. Atwood, D.D.S., Merrie Turner Lightner and Edward J. Watson served as members of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. None of these members is or has been an executive officer or employee of the Company or the Bank, whether during 2011 or at any time since incorporation of the Company in 2001, and none of them has been a participant in any transaction or would be a participant to a currently proposed transaction with the Company or the Bank in which such member had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, except for any loans made by the Bank to such member in the ordinary course of business, made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the same time for comparable loans with persons not related to the Bank, and which loans did not involve more than the normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable features. In addition, during 2011, no member of the Compensation Committee or any executive officer of the Company or the Bank served as a director or member of the compensation committee of any other company. Mr. Watson has served as Secretary of the Company and the Bank since 2011, which is not an executive officer position.
Components of Compensation
The Company’s compensation program consists of five components, namely, (1) base salary; (2) cash bonuses; (3) equity compensation (stock options); (4) perquisites; and (5) post-employment pay and benefits. These components as a group are intended to compensate each executive officer fairly for his or her services, and to reward such officer based on the Company’s overall performance plus his or her individual performance during the year, according to the position held by such officer. In reviewing each officer’s compensation package, the Compensation Committee considers the mix of total pay, benefits and perquisites, together with the competitive market for persons having the same or a similar skill-set as possessed by such officer.
Base Salary. Base salary is related to the individual executive officer’s level of responsibility and comparison with comparable employers in the banking industry. The Board of Directors reviews and sets base salaries annually, taking into consideration the recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer (for executive officers other than the Chief Executive Officer). In conducting its review of salaries, the Board of Directors takes into consideration the overall performance of the Bank and the Company.
The Board of Directors determines the base salary for the Chief Executive Officer by (a) examining the financial performance of the Bank against its present goals; (b) examining the financial performance of the Bank as compared to the banking industry generally; (c) evaluating the overall performance of the Chief Executive Officer; and (d) comparing the base salary of the Chief Executive Officer to that of other chief executive officers in the banking industry in the market area of the Bank.
On December 2011, effective as of January 1, 2012 for the year 2012, the Board of Directors approved the following base salaries: Mr. McGraw’s salary was increased to $283,894; Mr. Black’s salary was increased to $274,809; Mr. Clifford’s salary was increased to $262,913; Mr. Curtis’s salary was increased to $228,149; and Mr. Brugioni’s salary was increased to $195,667. The compensation paid to Messrs. McGraw (CEO), Black (President), Clifford (EVP), Curtis (CFO) and Brugioni (SVP) during 2011 is set forth in the “Summary Compensation Table” below.
23 |
Cash Incentive Compensation. The Bank does not have a formal bonus plan. The Board of Directors, at its discretion, awards annual bonuses to executive officers and during 2011 awarded bonuses to Messrs. Black, Clifford, Curtis and Brugioni (which are set forth in the “Summary Compensation Table” below). The Board of Directors decides annually whether to make a profit sharing contribution to the FNB Bancorp Savings Plan, and the amount of that contribution. The executive officers participate in the Savings Plan and the amounts credited to their respective accounts for 2011 are included in the “Summary Compensation Table” below. Historically, the Board of Directors has approved annual target accruals of approximately 16 percent, in the aggregate, of eligible salaries for a contribution to the Savings Plan and a cash bonus pool, combined. In view of current economic conditions, this amount was reduced to approximately 6% for 2010. The total contribution to the Savings Plan for 2011 was approximately $308,000 and the contribution to the cash bonus pool was $327,000.

Equity Incentive Compensation. At its discretion, the Board of Directors grants stock options to key officers of the Company and the Bank who are primarily responsible for the growth and management of its business. As of December 31, 2011, a total of 459,811 shares were reserved for options previously granted and currently outstanding under the FNB Bancorp Stock Option Plan (successor as of March 15, 2002, to the First National Bank of Northern California 1997 Stock Option Plan) the FNB Bancorp 2002 Stock Option Plan, and the 2008 FNB Bancorp Stock Option Plan, which includes options for an aggregate of 172,093 shares of common stock (as adjusted for stock dividends paid in 2000 through 2011) which have been granted to Messrs. McGraw, Black, Clifford, Curtis and Brugioni. All stock option plans have been approved by the shareholders of the Company. The number of shares granted to an employee is based on several factors, including employee performance and the value placed on the expected future performance of the employee, retention of the employee and, in some cases, internal or external pay equity. The Board of Directors believes that grants of stock options have enhanced and will continue to enhance the Company’s ability to attract, reward and motivate executive officers and other key employees.
A summary of the stock options to the Named Executive Officers during 2011, including the exercise prices, is set forth in the following table: (none granted in 2010)

(1) The exercise price of an incentive stock option is set at the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant. All options granted to such officers and currently outstanding are incentive stock options, vesting at the rate of 20 percent per year over the period of 5 years from date of grant and are exercisable for a period of 10 years from the grant date.
A summary of the stock options outstanding and held by such officers as of December 31, 2011 is set forth below in the table of “Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End 2011” and a summary of the stock options exercised during 2011 is set forth below in the table of “Option Exercises.” The Company does not grant Stock Awards.

Perquisites. The Board of Directors believes that offering certain perquisites is important to the operations of the Company and will assist the Company in its efforts to recruit and retain key employees. Messrs. McGraw, Black and Clifford are provided with the use of Company-owned automobiles. The aggregate amount of perquisites and other personal benefits or property received by executive officers during 2011 are included under column (g) for “All Other Compensation” in the Summary Compensation Table.
Post-Employment Compensation. The Company has no pension or retirement plan but the Bank has previously entered into individual salary continuation agreements with five current and former executive officers.
The Bank has entered into Salary Continuation Agreements (the “Agreements”) with Michael R. Wyman, now deceased (former Chairman of the Board of Directors, in 2009, and former Chief Executive Officer, in 1996), James B. Ramsey (former Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, in 1998, amended in 2004), Jim D. Black (President, in 2004), Anthony J. Clifford (Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, in 2004), and David A. Curtis (Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, in 2006). The Agreements provide for annual benefits to be paid to Mr. Wyman or his designated beneficiary of up to $60,000 per year over a period of 15 years; annual benefits to be paid to Mr. Ramsey or his designated beneficiary of up to $70,000 per year over a period of 20 years; annual benefits to be paid to Mr. Black or his designated beneficiary of up to $122,600 per year over a period of 20 years; annual benefits to be paid to Mr. Clifford or his designated beneficiary of up to $140,700 per year over a period of 20 years; and annual benefits to be paid to Mr. Curtis or his designated beneficiary of up to $170,000 per year over a period of 20 years. Such benefits were effective for Mr. Wyman and Mr. Ramsey upon attaining 66 years of age, and will be effective for each of Messrs. Black, Clifford and Curtis upon (i) attainment of age 65, or upon his death or disability prior to such time if he is actively employed by First National Bank at the time; (ii) termination of his employment by the Bank without “cause” (as defined in the Agreements); and (iii) termination or constructive termination of his employment by the Bank after the occurrence of a “change of control” of the Bank (as defined in the Agreements). The Bank has purchased life insurance policies on the life of Messrs. Wyman (in 1996), Ramsey (in 2004, in addition to the 1998 policy), Black (in 2004), Clifford (in 2004) and Curtis (in 2007). The Bank is the sole owner and beneficiary or co-beneficiary under such life insurance policies, which policies indirectly offset the anticipated costs for certain death, disability and post-employment/retirement benefits for Messrs. Wyman, Ramsey, Black, Clifford and Curtis. The Bank has entered into Split-Dollar Agreements with Messrs. Black, Clifford Curtis and Ramsey, each of which designates the Bank as beneficiary of the insurance policies after the interest of Messrs. Black, Clifford, Curtis and Ramsey have been paid to their respective designated beneficiaries. The cash surrender value of each insurance policy, which is expected to increase over the term of the policy, is included among the “other assets” on the consolidated balance sheet of the Company.
28 |
Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change-in-Control
Management Continuity Agreements. On July 20, 2000, the Bank entered into Management Continuity Agreements with Jim D. Black, Charles R. Key and Anthony J. Clifford. Each Agreement provides for the payment of a severance benefit to the officer upon termination of employment after a “change in control” of the Bank (as defined in the Agreements). The purpose of the Agreements is to maintain sound and vital management of the Bank, thereby protecting its best interests, in the event of a proposed change in control of the Bank. The amount of the benefit payable under each Agreement is two times the “base annual salary” of the relevant officer for the twelve month period immediately preceding a “change in control.” In addition, if any payment of the benefit constitutes an “excess parachute payment” that is subject to an excise tax imposed by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the Bank will increase the amounts payable to the extent necessary to place the officer in the same after-tax position that would have existed had no excise tax been imposed. The Bank can elect to pay benefits in a lump sum payment or in monthly installments over a period not exceeding two years following the date of termination of employment. Each Management Continuity Agreement continues for two years from July 20, 2000, and is subject to automatic one year renewals thereafter, unless the Bank gives written notice of non-renewal. Each Management Continuity Agreement has been renewed annually and currently expires on July 20, 2012 (subject to further renewal).
Golden Parachute Compensation. In the event of a change of control, based on current base salaries, the following table illustrates the benefits that would apply.

The Bank has established a Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan, and participation in the Plan is open to all officers of the Bank. The Deferred Compensation Plan consists of a Deferred Compensation Trust, dated November 1, 1997, with Mass Mutual serving as Trustee, and individual Deferred Compensation Agreements between the Bank and each of the participating officers. The funds contributed to the Plan are those of the individual participant, and represent income earned and/or bonuses granted as an employee of the Bank. No funds of the Bank may be contributed to the Plan. Under the Plan, a participant may elect to defer the receipt of a portion of his or her cash salary and/or bonus. The Bank maintains a record of the deferred compensation for each participant, and at the time of distribution, is obligated to effect the distribution as well as collection of any and all taxes due at such time. Each participant may elect whether he or she will receive distribution of his or her entire account, subject to applicable tax withholding requirements, upon reaching a specified age, or upon passage of at least five years or upon termination of employment. In order to discharge its obligations in respect of such deferred compensation, the Bank forwards the amounts of contributions of the deferred compensation specified by the participants to the Deferred Compensation Trust, which are then invested in accordance with the instructions of the participants. The principal and any earnings in the Trust are held separate and apart from other funds of the Bank and are used for the discharge of the Bank’s obligations to the participants. As of December 31, 2011, the Deferred Compensation Trust held an aggregate of 28,299 shares of Company Common Stock, and held shares of Company Common Stock for the accounts of Messrs. Black, Brugioni and Curtis, representing approximately 0.73% of the total shares outstanding on such date (consisting of 7,430 shares for Jim D. Black; 1,805 shares for David A. Curtis; 16,394 shares for Randy R. Brugioni; and no shares for Thomas C. McGraw or Anthony J. Clifford).
Review of Risk Associated With Compensation Plans
The compensation plans described in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis are reviewed and evaluated by the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors at least annually. As part of that review, various criteria related to financial performance, credit risk, operational risk, liquidity risk, capital risk and interest rate risk are considered.
In addition, although there is no formal cash bonus plan, the Board of Directors may, at its discretion, award annual cash bonuses to executive officers. The members of the Compensation Committee are well aware of the financial performance of the Company and the Bank when considering whether to recommend the payment of a cash bonus to any executive officer.
30 |
For 2011, the Compensation Committee met with the senior officers of the Company and reviewed the compensation plans and concluded that, based on the controls and procedures described in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis and elsewhere in this Proxy Statement, the compensation plans do not present risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Compensation Committee Report
The members of the Compensation Committee have reviewed and discussed the foregoing Compensation Discussion and Analysis with management and, based on such review and discussion, the Compensation Committee has recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this proxy statement and in the FNB Bancorp Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Certification under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (“EESA”):
The compensation committee certifies that:
(1) | It has reviewed with senior risk officers the senior executive officer compensation plans and has made all reasonable efforts to ensure that these plans do not encourage senior executive officers to take unnecessary and excessive risks that threaten the value of FNB Bancorp; | |
(2) | It has reviewed with senior risk officers the employee compensation plans and has made all reasonable efforts to limit any unnecessary risks these plans pose to the FNB Bancorp; and | |
(3) | It has reviewed the employee compensation plans to eliminate any features of these plans that would encourage the manipulation of reported earnings of FNB Bancorp to enhance the compensation of any employee. |
Respectfully submitted by the members of the Compensation Committee,
Edward J, Watson, Chair

PROPOSAL NO. 2
ADVISORY (NON-BINDING) APPROVAL OF THE COMPANY’S EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) provides shareholders with the opportunity to vote on an advisory (non-binding) basis, to approve the compensation of our named executive officers as further described in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” and “Executive Compensation” sections of this Proxy Statement, including the related compensation tables and narrative discussion. This proposal, commonly known as a “Say on Pay” proposal, provides our shareholders the opportunity to express their views on our executive compensation program, as it relates to our named executive officers. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our named executive officers and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this Proxy Statement.
We ask our shareholders to indicate their support for our executive compensation program for our named executive officers and vote “FOR” the following resolution at the Meeting:
“RESOLVED, that the Company’s shareholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the discussion in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” and “Executive Compensation” sections of this Proxy Statement and the related compensation tables and narrative discussion.”
Because your vote is advisory, it will not be binding upon the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee and may not be construed as overruling any decision by the Board or the Compensation Committee. However, the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee may, in their respective sole discretion, take into account the outcome of the vote when considering future executive compensation arrangements.
Shareholders are encouraged to carefully review the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” and “Executive Compensation” sections of this Proxy Statement and the related compensation tables and narrative discussion for a detailed discussion of the Company’s executive compensation program for our named executive officers.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF PROPOSAL NO. 2 AND THE COMPENSATION FOR OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.

PROPOSAL NO. 3
ADVISORY (NON-BINDING) VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF THE FUTURE “SAY ON PAY” VOTES
The Dodd-Frank Act also provides shareholders with the opportunity to vote on how frequently we should seek an advisory vote, or “Say on Pay,” on the compensation of our named executive officers. Shareholders may indicate on an advisory (non-binding) basis whether they prefer an advisory vote on compensation for our named executive officers on an annual (every one year), biennial (every two years) or triennial (every three years) basis.
After consideration of this proposal, our Board of Directors has determined that an advisory vote on executive compensation that occurs every three years is the most appropriate for the shareholders of the Company. Our Board of Directors values the opinions of our shareholders and believes that a triennial advisory vote would provide us with appropriate shareholder input on our executive compensation program for the named executive officers.
We ask our shareholders to indicate their preferred voting frequency by choosing the option of an annual advisory vote (every year), a biennial advisory vote (every two years) or a triennial advisory vote (every three years) or by choosing to abstain from voting on this proposal.
Because your vote is advisory, it will not be binding upon the Board of Directors and may not be construed as overruling any decision by the Board of Directors. However, the Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, take into account the outcome of the vote when considering submission of an advisory “Say on Pay” proposal for shareholder approval.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” APPROVAL OF PROPOSAL NO. 3 AND THE TRIENNIAL FREQUENCY OF FUTURE “SAY ON PAY” VOTES.

PROPOSAL NO. 4
RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The firm of Moss Adams LLP, which served the Company as independent auditors for the 2011 fiscal year, has been recommended by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company to serve as independent auditors for the 2012 fiscal year, and the Board of Directors has approved the Audit Committee recommendation. In this Proposal No. 4, the shareholders of the Company are being asked to ratify the appointment of Moss Adams LLP as independent auditors of the Company, to serve for the 2012 fiscal year.
A representative of Moss Adams LLP is expected to attend the Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement if the representative desires to do so, and the representative is expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.
During the two fiscal years of the Company ended December 31, 2011, and during the subsequent interim period through April 24, 2012, neither the Company nor the Bank consulted with Moss Adams LLP regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the financial statements of the Company, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or a reportable event under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Audit Fees
The aggregate fees billed by Moss Adams LLP to the Company for professional services rendered for the integrated audit of the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, and for the review of the financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2011, June 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, were $162,500.
All Other Fees
Moss Adams LLP billed $15,000 for the audit of the FNB Bancorp Savings Plan during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company has approved each professional service rendered by Moss Adams LLP during the fiscal year 2011, and the Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services would be compatible with maintaining the independence of Moss Adams LLP.
