Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of
Citizens Republic Bancorp
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Citizens
Republic Bancorp 401(k) Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statement
of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2010. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Plans management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We
were not engaged to perform an audit of the Plans internal control over financial reporting. Our
audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing
audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plans internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the
changes in its net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2010, in
conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken
as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December
31, 2010, is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the
financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labors Rules
and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plans management. The supplemental
schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the financial
statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
financial statements taken as a whole.

Citizens Republic Bancorp 401(k) Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
1. Description of the Plan
The Citizens Republic Bancorp 401(k) Plan (the Plan) is a defined contribution plan which
includes a salary deferral feature under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986
(Code) and covers substantially all employees of Citizens Republic Bancorp, Inc. (Corporation)
and its subsidiaries. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).
This description provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Summary Plan
Description and the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plans provisions. Copies
of these documents may be obtained by contacting Citizens Bank Human Resources Department at
810-768-4748 or email Benefits4U@citizensbanking.com.
Eligibility
Employees are eligible to participate in the Plan unless they are within a group considered
excluded. Excluded groups include: temporary, co-operative, seasonal, and those employees who
complete less than 1,000 hours of service in an eligibility computation period.
Contributions
In 2010, participants were able to contribute up to 50% of their annual compensation not to exceed
the annual Internal Revenue Service (IRS) dollar limitation of $16,500. Certain participants
were also able to contribute additional amounts of up to $5,500, the annual IRS dollar limit on
catch-up contributions during 2010. Newly hired eligible employees, with an entry date of July 1,
2010 or thereafter, who do not affirmatively enroll or decline enrollment by their entry date are
automatically enrolled in the Plan at an annual deferral rate of 3%. The annual deferral rate
prior to July 1, 2010 was 2%.
Compensation includes all wages except stock compensation, non-qualified moving expenses and other
travel allowances, severance payments, third-party sick pay, adoption benefits, tuition, deferred
compensation, reward and recognition, bonuses paid but not earned in the course of employment (i.e.
signing bonus or retention bonus), other post-employment payments such as retirement and/or
supplemental retirement benefits for purposes of elective deferrals, and non-elective
contributions.
In 2009, the Plan was amended to suspend all employer matching contributions effective for elective
deferrals made by participants with respect to compensation earned after the payroll period ending
July 16, 2009 and until such time as the Corporation affirmatively reinstates such matching
contributions. The computation of any future matching contributions will be made solely on the
basis of deferrals made, and compensation received, in each two-week payroll period, thereby
eliminating any year-end true-up of such contributions based on actual annual compensation.
The Plan provides that each eligible participant may receive a discretionary annual non-elective
employer contribution to his or her Plan account after the end of the
Page 4
Citizens Republic Bancorp 401(k) Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
year, provided the participant has been credited with a minimum of 1,000 hours of service within
the year and is employed by the Corporation at the end of the year. These two requirements are
waived for the plan year of a participants retirement, death or disability. No discretionary
employer contributions were made for the plan year ended December 31, 2010.
Participants direct their elective contributions into various investment options offered by the
Plan and can change their investment options on a daily basis. If a participant is automatically
enrolled, their contributions are invested in accordance with the default investment alternatives
established under the Plan until the participant changes their election. The Companys
contributions are allocated in the same manner as that of the participants elective contributions.
Participant Accounts
Each participants account is credited with the participants contributions and the Corporations
matching contributions and an allocation of plan earnings. Plan earnings are allocated based on the
participants share of net earnings or losses of their respective elected investment options.
Vesting
Participants are immediately vested in their own pre-tax contributions and the Corporations
matching contributions, if any, as well as actual earnings on each. Any discretionary employer
contribution is vested after the participant has completed three years of service; one year of
service being defined as completion of at least 1,000 hours of service in a plan year. The benefit
to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participants
vested account balance. Participants direct the investment of their accounts, inclusive of the
employer contribution balance, among the investments offered by the Plan.
On January 29, 2010, Citizens Republic Bancorp entered into a stock purchase agreement with Great
Western Bank whereby Great Western Bank agreed to acquire all of the stock of its wholly owned
subsidiary, F&M Bank-Iowa (F&M). Pursuant to the terms of the sale agreement, the Plan was
amended so that employees of F&M were fully vested in all 401(k) plan contributions credited to
their participant accounts through the closing date of the sale. This amendment was effective
March 24, 2010 and the sale of F&M was completed on April 23, 2010.
Forfeitures
Forfeitures can be used to offset the non-elective employer contribution, employer match, or plan
expenses. For the plan years ending December 31, 2010 and 2009, the amount of forfeitures was
immaterial and the balance remains in the Plan.
Participant Loans
Participants may borrow from their account a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser
of $50,000 or 50% of the participants vested account balance. Loan terms range from one to five
years or up to 15 years for the purchase of a primary residence. A loan is secured by the balance
in the participants account and
Page 5
Citizens Republic Bancorp 401(k) Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
bears interest equal to the prime rate at the loan origination date plus 1%. Only one loan may be
outstanding against a participants account at any time. Principal and interest are paid ratably
through payroll deductions.
Payment of Benefits
Upon termination of employment, death, disability, or retirement, a participant has the option to
receive, defer, or roll over to an IRA or other eligible plan a single lump-sum amount equal to the
vested balance of their account. Effective July 1, 2010, the Plan was amended to allow a
participant or beneficiary, at any time after separation from service, to elect distribution of all
or any part of their account.
Administrative Expenses
Substantially all administrative expenses are paid by the Plan. Participants pay the applicable
fees associated with their investments, loans, distributions, withdrawals, and stock transactions.
Plan Termination
Although the Corporation has not expressed any intent to do so, the Corporation has the right under
the Plan to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of the Code and ERISA. In the event of
Plan termination, all participants will be 100% vested in their accounts. The value of each
participants account will be determined as of the effective date of the termination and
distributed as provided by the Plan.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes and supplemental schedules. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Payment of Benefits
Benefits are recorded when paid.
Page 6
Citizens Republic Bancorp 401(k) Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
Loans to Participants
Loans to participants are recorded at their unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid
interest. Interest income on notes receivable from participants is recorded when it is earned.
Related fees are recorded as administrative expenses and are expensed when they are incurred. No
allowance for credit losses has been recorded for loans to participants. If a participant ceases to
make loan repayments and the Plan Administrator deems the participant loan to be a distribution,
the participant loan balance is reduced and a benefit payment is recorded.
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
Investments held by the Plan are stated at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that
would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). See Note 4 for further
discussion and disclosures related to fair value measurements.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded
on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Net appreciation includes the
Plans gains and losses on investments bought and sold as well as held during the year.
New Accounting Pronouncements
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (the
Codification or ASC)
Accounting Standard Update (ASU)
FASB ASU 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about
Fair Value Measurements
This ASU requires new disclosures and clarifies existing disclosure requirements about fair value
measurement as set forth in ASU Subtopic 820-10. The FASBs objective is to improve these
disclosures and, thus, increase the transparency in financial reporting, as well as clarify the
requirements of existing disclosures. ASU 2010-06 was effective for interim and annual reporting
periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for certain disclosure requirements which are
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those
fiscal years. Adoption of ASU 2010-06 did not have a significant impact on the Plans net assets
available for benefits or its changes in net assets available for benefits.
FASB ASU 2010-25, Plan Accounting Defined Contribution Pension Plans (Topic 962): Reporting Loans
to Participants by Defined Contribution Pension Plans
This ASU applies to any defined contribution pension plan that allows participant loans. The
amendments in this ASU require that participant loans be classified as notes receivable from
participants, which are segregated from plan investments and
Page 7
Citizens Republic Bancorp 401(k) Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
measured at their unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest. ASU 2010-25 was
effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2010, and should be applied retrospectively to
all prior periods presented. Adoption of ASU 2010-25 did not have a significant impact on the
Plans net assets available for benefits or its changes in net assets available for benefits.
Loans to participants as of December 31, 2009 were reclassified from investments to notes
receivable on the Plans Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits to conform to the current
year presentation.
Pending Accounting Pronouncements
FASB ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value
Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS
This ASU represents the converged guidance of the FASB and the IASB (the Boards) on fair value
measurement. The collective efforts of the Boards and their staffs, reflected in this ASU, have
resulted in common requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair
value measurements, including a consistent meaning of the term fair value. ASU 2011-04 is
effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and should be applied
retrospectively to all prior periods presented. Adoption of ASU 2011-04 is not expected to have a
significant impact on the Plans net assets available for benefits or its changes in net assets
available for benefits.

4. Fair Value Measurements
The Plan groups assets which are recorded at fair value into three levels, based on the markets in
which the assets are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value.
An assets level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is
significant to the fair value measurement (with Level 1 considered highest and Level 3 considered
lowest). A brief description of each level follows:
|
|
|
Level 1 Fair value is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments in active
markets. |
|
|
|
|
Level 2 Fair value is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active
markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active,
and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable
in the market. |
|
|
|
|
Level 3 Fair value is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one
significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions
reflect estimates that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
Valuation techniques may include use of discounted cash flow models and similar techniques. |
All financial instruments of the Plan are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The methods
and assumptions used to estimate the fair value for each asset group are set forth below.
Trading restrictions apply to mutual funds and pooled separate accounts. Participants are
restricted from the frequent trading of shares in an investment option, which is defined as: (1)
one or more participant-directed trades within the
Page 9
Citizens Republic Bancorp 401(k) Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
same investment option; (2) within a rolling 30-day period; and (3) each trade is greater than
$25,000. Such activity may result in the Plan Administrator imposing penalties or additional trade
restrictions on the participant.
Common Stock
Common stock represents the stock of Citizens Republic Bancorp, Inc., the Plan Sponsor, which is
traded on an active market. On June 14, 2011, Citizens announced a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of
Citizens common stock and anticipates that it will be effective after the close of trading on July
1, 2011. When the reverse stock split becomes effective, every ten shares of issued and
outstanding Citizens common stock will be automatically combined into one issued and outstanding
share of common stock. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse stock
split. Shareholders who would otherwise hold a fractional share will receive a cash payment in
lieu of such fractional share based on the closing price of Citizens common stock on the effective
date of the reverse stock split.
Mutual Funds
Mutual funds are valued at the Net Asset Value (NAV) of shares held by the Plan as reported on
active markets.
Pooled Separate Accounts
Pooled separate accounts are valued at the NAV of units held by the Plan as reported by the
investment manager of the fund. The NAV is based on the value of the underlying assets owned by the
fund, minus its liabilities, and then divided by the number of units outstanding. The NAV unit
price of the pooled separate accounts is not quoted on any market; however the unit price is based
on the underlying investments which are traded in an active market and are priced by independent
providers. Citizens has evaluated the valuation methodologies used to develop the fair values in
order to determine whether such valuations are representative of an exit price in Citizens
principal markets. Further, Citizens has developed an internal, independent price verification
function that performs testing on valuations received from third parties. There are no significant
restrictions on the redemption of investments in the pooled separate accounts.
Other Investments
Other investments are comprised of a benefit-responsive guaranteed income fund (GIF) which is
recorded at contract value and based on the nature of the contract generally approximates fair
value. Contract value represents contributions, earnings at guaranteed crediting rates, less
withdrawals and fees. The fair value of the Plans investment in the GIF is estimated using a
comparison to similar assets in an active market. The average yield earned by the Plan as well as
the participants for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was 3.93% and 3.66%, respectively.
The GIF is backed by an insurance wrapper through the Prudential Retirement Insurance and Annuity
Company (PRIAC) that guarantees the principal and accumulated interest in the event the funds
portfolio declines in value as well as a guarantee of the minimum rate of return on the underlying
portfolio. Participants are
Page 10
Citizens Republic Bancorp 401(k) Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
guaranteed a pre-determined interest rate and no loss of principal. The underlying portfolio is
primarily invested in public bonds, commercial mortgages and private placement bonds.
Interest is credited on contract balances using a single portfolio rate approach. Under this
methodology, a single interest crediting rate is applied to all contributions made to the product
regardless of the timing of those contributions. Interest crediting rates are reviewed on a
semi-annual basis for resetting. When establishing interest crediting rates for this product,
Prudential considers many factors, including current economic and market conditions, the general
interest rate environment and both the expected and actual experience of a reference portfolio
within the issuers general account. These rates are established without the use of a specific
formula. The minimum crediting rate under the contract is 1.50%.
The following table presents the balances of assets that were measured at fair value on a recurring
basis as of December 31, 2010:

5. Income Tax Status
The underlying non-standardized prototype plan has received an opinion letter from the IRS dated
March 31, 2008 stating that the form of the Plan is qualified under Section 401 of the Code, and
therefore, the related trust is tax exempt. In accordance with Revenue Procedures 2008-6 and
2005-16, the Plan Sponsor has determined that it is eligible to, and has chosen to, rely on the
current IRS prototype plan opinion letter. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in
conformity with the Code to maintain its qualified status. The Plan Administrator believes the Plan
is being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code and, therefore,
believes that the Plan is qualified and the related trust is tax exempt.

Notes to Financial Statements
6. Risks and Uncertainties
The Plan investments include mutual funds, a GIF, pooled separate accounts, and equity securities.
The Plan generates a significant portion of its earnings from investments in domestic and
international mutual funds. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest
rate, market, and credit risks. GIFs meet the definition of benefit-responsive and are carried at
contract value. If an event were to occur such that the realization of a GIFs full contract value
is no longer probable (for example, a significant decline in credit worthiness of the contract
issuer or wrapper provider), these investment contracts would no longer be considered
benefit-responsive and would be carried at fair value. Due to the level of risk associated with
certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment
securities could occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participants
account balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits
and the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits.
