REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED

PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

401(k) Oversight Committee

Renasant Bank

Tupelo, Mississippi

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of The Peoples Bank & Trust Company 401(k) Plan as of December 1, 2005 and 2004, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the auditing 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 Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audit 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 Plan’s 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. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as 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 of The Peoples Bank & Trust Company 401(k) Plan as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and for the years then ended present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of The Peoples Bank & Trust Company 401(k) Plan as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and changes in its net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

Renasant Bank

Our audits of the Plan’s financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held at the end of the year is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements, but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental information is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements as of December 31, 2005, and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

THE PEOPLES BANK & TRUST COMPANY 401(k) PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004

NOTE A – DESCRIPTION OF PLAN

The following brief description of The Peoples Bank & Trust Company 401(k) Plan (the “Plan”) is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for more complete information.

General: The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering substantially all employees of Renasant Corporation (formerly known as The Peoples Holding Company and referred to herein as the “Company”). Employees who have completed six months of service and are age twenty-one or older are eligible to participate in the Plan. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

On December 16, 2004, the board of directors of the Company approved a plan to change the name of the Company from “The Peoples Holding Company” to “Renasant Corporation.” The change of the Company’s name became effective on April 19, 2005.

On December 16, 2004, the board of directors of The Peoples Bank & Trust Company approved a plan to change the name of “The Peoples Bank & Trust Company” to “Renasant Bank” and “The Peoples Insurance Agency” to “Renasant Insurance, Inc.” As such, The Peoples Bank & Trust Company is referred to as Renasant Bank and The Peoples Insurance Agency is referred to as Renasant Insurance, Inc. throughout the remainder of the financial statements.

Transfers from Merged Plans: On January 1, 2005, the Company completed its acquisition of Heritage Financial Holding Corporation (“Heritage”), a bank holding company headquartered in Decatur, Alabama. Effective January 1, 2005, the Plan was amended to make all newly acquired eligible employees of Heritage participants of the Plan.

On December 31, 2004, the Company merged two benefit plans which it sponsors, The Peoples Bank & Trust Company Employee Stock Ownership Plan and The Peoples Bank & Trust Company Money Purchase Pension Plan, into the Plan. The transfer of the net assets of the two merged benefit plans is shown as an addition to the net assets of the Plan for the year ended December 31, 2004. At the date of transfer, the Employee Stock Ownership Plan and Money Purchase Pension Plan had net assets of $13,146,472 and $6,404,866, respectively. The merged assets from these plans will remain non-participant directed investments.

On July 1, 2004, the Company acquired 100% of the voting interest of Renasant Bancshares, Inc. (“Renasant Bancshares”), a bank holding company headquartered in Germantown, Tennessee, in a business combination accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Effective July 1, 2004, the Plan was amended to make all newly acquired eligible employees of Renasant Bancshares participants of the Plan.

THE PEOPLES BANK & TRUST COMPANY 401(k) PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004

NOTE A – DESCRIPTION OF PLAN (Continued)

Contributions: Each year, participants may contribute up to the applicable IRS limits, as defined in the Plan. Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or contribution plans. The employer matches 100% of each employee’s salary deferral contribution up to four percent of each employee’s compensation. The Company, at its discretion, may make a discretionary profit sharing contribution to the non-participant directed investments for the benefit of the participants. Contributions are subject to certain limitations.

Participant Accounts: Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contribution and allocations of the employer contribution and plan earnings/losses. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s vested account.

Vesting: Participants are immediately 100% vested in salary deferral contributions and earnings allocated to those accounts. Vesting in matching employer contributions and profit sharing contributions is based on a six year graduated schedule.

Payment of Benefits: Upon termination of service with the employer, a participant may elect to receive a lump-sum distribution of his or her entire vested account balance. Benefits are recorded when paid.

Participant Notes Receivable: Participants may borrow from their fund accounts up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their deferral account balance. Loan availability is generally limited to hardship restrictions. Loan terms range from 1 to 5 years unless the loan is for the purchase of a principal residence. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account and bear interest at prime plus one. Principal and interest is paid ratably through payroll deductions.

NOTE B – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Accounting: The Plan’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, with the exception of the payment of benefits, which are recognized as a reduction in the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as they are disbursed to participants.

Investment Valuation: Quoted market prices are used to value investments. The Company’s common stock is traded on the NASDAQ under the trading symbol “RNST” and is valued using the closing price on the last day of the Plan year. The participant loans are valued at their outstanding balances, which approximate fair value. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis.

THE PEOPLES BANK & TRUST COMPANY 401(k) PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004

NOTE B – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Forfeitures: Forfeitures of non-vested employer match contributions will reduce employer match contributions. Forfeitures of non-vested employer profit sharing contributions will be allocated to other participants based on compensation. There were forfeitures pending in the amount of $44,136 at December 31, 2005. There were no forfeitures pending at December 31, 2004. The forfeitures were used to reduce the company contribution.

Administrative Expenses: The Plan sponsor absorbs all of the administrative expenses of the Plan. Such expenses have historically been comprised of fees of audit, custody and recordkeeping services.

Risks and Uncertainties: The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will 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.

Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the plan administrator to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results may differ from those estimates.

NOTE C – PLAN TERMINATION

Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right at any time to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of plan termination, all employees will become 100% vested in their accounts.

NOTE D – TAX STATUS

The Plan obtained its latest determination letter on July 3, 2003, in which the Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan, as then designed, was in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The Plan has been amended since that date. The plan administrator and the Plan’s tax counsel believe that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been included in the Plan’s financial statements.
