Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Plan Administrator
F.N.B. Corporation Progress Savings 401(k) Plan
Hermitage, Pennsylvania
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits of the F.N.B. Corporation Progress Savings 401(k) Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2005 and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended. 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 audit.
We conducted our audit 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. An audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the 2005 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2005 and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audit of the Plan’s 2005 financial statements was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic 2005 financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental Schedule H, Line 4i – Schedule of Assets (Held at End of Year) as of December 31, 2005 and the supplemental Schedule H, Line 4j – Schedule of Reportable Transactions for the year ended December 31, 2005 are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are 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. The supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic 2005 financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic 2005 financial statements taken as a whole.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors
F.N.B. Corporation Progress Savings 401(k) Plan
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits of F.N.B. Corporation Progress Savings 401(k) Plan as of December 31, 2004, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended. 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 audit.
We conducted our audit 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 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides 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, 2004, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the year then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

F.N.B. Corporation
Progress Savings 401(k) Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2005 and 2004
1. Description of Plan
The following description of the F.N.B. Corporation Progress Savings 401(k) Plan (the Plan) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the summary plan description for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.
General
The Plan is a defined contribution 401(k) plan, covering all employees of F.N.B. Corporation (the Corporation), including the following subsidiaries: First National Bank of Pennsylvania; Regency Finance Company; First National Trust Company; First National Investment Services Company, LLC; F.N.B. Investment Advisors, Inc.; F.N.B. Capital Corporation, LLC and First National Insurance Agency, LLC. Effective January 1, 2004, F.N.B. Corporation spun off its Florida operations into a separate, independent public company, First National Bankshares of Florida, Inc. (FLB). As a result of the spin-off, F.N.B. Corporation stockholders received one share of FLB common stock for each share of the Corporation’s common stock owned. FLB common stock became an approved investment option in the Plan; however, no further contributions may be made into this investment option. Effective January 1, 2005, FLB was acquired by Fifth Third Bancorp (Fifth Third) and all FLB shares in the Plan were converted to Fifth Third shares. Employees who have completed 90 days of service and are age 21 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).
As a result of the Corporation acquiring NSD Bancorp, Inc. (NSD) and North East Bancshares, Inc. (NE) effective February 18, 2005, and October 7, 2005, respectively, employees who were active participants in the defined contribution plans of NSD and NE were permitted to immediately participate in the Plan. NSD and NE participants employed by the Corporation have not transferred any balances to the Plan as of December 31, 2005 as the former NSD and NE plans have yet to be terminated.
As a result of the Corporation acquiring Slippery Rock Financial Corporation (SRFC) effective October 8, 2004 and acquiring the assets of Morrell, Butz, and Junker, Inc. (MBJ) effective July 30, 2004, employees who were active participants in the defined contribution plans of SRFC and MBJ were permitted to immediately participate in the Plan. A total of $2,110,307 was transferred to the trustee for the Plan, representing the account balances of MBJ participants employed by the Corporation. This amount is included in participants’ rollover contributions in the accompanying 2004 Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits. SRFC participants employed by the Corporation have not transferred any balances to the Plan as of December 31, 2005 as the former SRFC plan has yet to be terminated.

Progress Savings 401(k) Plan
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
December 31, 2005 and 2004
1. Description of Plan (continued)
Contributions
Participating employees may make voluntary pretax contributions to their accounts of up to 50% of their compensation. The Plan also allows participants who have attained age 50 by the end of the plan year to elect to make catch-up contributions in accordance with Code Section 414(v). The Corporation makes a matching contribution of 50% of the first 6% of a participant’s salary deferral contribution. The amount of matching contributions is a discretionary percentage and may be changed. The Corporation may also make discretionary contributions to the Plan from time to time.
Participants’ savings contributions and employer matching contributions are designated under a qualified deferral arrangement as allowed by Sections 401(k) and 401(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Principal Financial Group, Inc. (Principal) is the custodian of all of the Plan’s assets, with the exception of the F.N.B. Corporation, Fifth Third and FLB common stock. The First National Trust Company is the trustee and custodian for the F.N.B. Corporation, Fifth Third and FLB common stock.
The employer’s discretionary contributions are used to purchase the Corporation’s common stock. Participants who have attained age 55 are permitted to direct the trustee to invest the Corporation’s discretionary portion of their account into any other investment that may be permitted under the Plan.
Dividends on F.N.B. Corporation Common Stock
Dividends on F.N.B. Corporation common stock are automatically reinvested in the Plan for all participants. However, participants may make a special request to receive a cash distribution of dividend payments on F.N.B. Corporation common stock.
Participant Accounts
Each participant’s account is credited with their voluntary contribution and the employer’s matching contribution and an allocation of the Plan’s net earnings as defined by the Plan.

Progress Savings 401(k) Plan
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
December 31, 2005 and 2004
1. Description of Plan (continued)
Vesting
Participants are immediately vested in their voluntary contributions plus actual earnings thereon. Participants are 100% vested in the employer’s matching contributions and actual earnings thereon after five years of service (see vesting schedule below):
         
Vesting Schedule  
Years of Service   Percentage   
 
1
    20 %
2
    40 %
3
    60 %
4
    80 %
5
    100 %
Cash dividends paid on F.N.B. Corporation common stock declared after March 1, 2003, are 100% vested regardless of years of service performed.
Forfeitures
Upon termination of a participant, the employer’s matching contribution to which the participant is not vested is segregated into a separate account until the participant incurs a five-year break in service upon which time such nonvested amount will be forfeited. Forfeited amounts are used to reduce the Plan’s administrative expenses. Any remaining balance is used by the employer to reduce future matching contributions. For the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, forfeitures totaled $69,668 and $25,479, respectively, and were used to reduce plan expenses.
Payment of Benefits
Upon termination of service, a participant with a vested account balance of less than $1,000 will receive a lump-sum amount equal to the vested value of his or her account. A participant who terminates service with a vested account balance of greater than $1,000 has two options: he or she may leave his or her account under the Plan or he or she may request a lump-sum distribution of the vested account balance. The Plan also permits distributions in the event of the participant’s permanent disability, death, early retirement (age 55), or attainment of normal retirement age as defined in the Plan.

1. Description of Plan (continued)
Participant Loans
Participants may borrow from their fund accounts up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their vested account balance. Loan terms range from one to five years. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account and bear interest at a rate commensurate with local prevailing rates as determined by the Plan Administrator. Principal and interest are paid ratably through payroll deductions.
Plan Termination
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Corporation has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contribution at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of plan termination, the participants will become 100% vested in their accounts.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, except for distributions which are recorded when paid by the trustee.
Valuation of Investments
The pooled separate account investments are valued at fair value. The dividends, interest, and realized and unrealized gains for the underlying funds are factored into the value of the separate account funds. The dollar value per unit of participation is determined by dividing the total value of the separate account by the total number of units of participation held in the separate account. Investments in guaranteed interest account are stated at their net asset value, based on the quoted market prices of the securities held in such funds. The common stock of the Corporation, Fifth Third and FLB is traded on a national exchange and is valued using last trading price on the last business day of the plan year. The participant loans are valued at their outstanding balances, which approximate fair value.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Administrative Expenses
All administrative expenses of the Plan not absorbed by forfeitures, except for investment fees, are paid by the Corporation. Such expenses have historically been comprised of fees of audit, custody and recordkeeping services and have been immaterial in relation to the Corporation and the Plan.
Investment Income
Interest income from investments and loans to participants is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on an accrual basis.
Contributions
Participant contributions are recorded in the month withheld from participants’ wages. Employer contributions are recorded in the same month.
Distributions to Participants
Distributions to participants are recorded when paid by the trustee.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Plan invests in certain 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.

5. Income Tax Status
The Plan received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated September 12, 2002, stating that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) and, therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation. Subsequent to this determination by the Internal Revenue Service, the Plan was amended. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the Code to maintain its qualification. The Plan Administrator believes the Plan is being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code and, therefore, believes that the Plan, as amended is qualified and the related trust is tax-exempt.
