| Note 20. | Agreement and Plan of Merger
On December 5, 2014, Cornerstone, the Bank, SmartFinancial, Inc. (SmartFinancial), and SmartFinancial’s wholly owned subsidiary, SmartBank, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement), pursuant to which SmartFinancial will be merged with and into Cornerstone (the Merger), and the entity surviving the Merger (the Surviving Company) will be renamed SmartFinancial, Inc. The banks will initially remain separate and operate under their respective names in their respective markets. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of SmartFinancial common stock will be converted into 4.20 shares of Cornerstone common stock, subject to adjustment based on an anticipated reverse stock split of Cornerstone’s common stock. Additionally, each outstanding share of SmartFinancial preferred stock will be converted into a share of Cornerstone preferred stock with similar rights and preferences. Current holders of Cornerstone’s preferred stock will be asked to vote on an amendment to Cornerstone’s charter to allow Cornerstone to redeem its outstanding preferred stock prior to the completion of the Merger. Based on consideration of all the relevant facts and circumstances of the Merger, for accounting purposes, SmartFinancial will be considered to have acquired Cornerstone. As a result, following the completion of the Merger, the historical financial statements of the Surviving Company will be the historical financial statements of SmartFinancial. The Merger will be effected by the issuance of shares of Cornerstone stock to SmartFinancial shareholders. The assets and liabilities of Cornerstone as of the effective date of the Merger will be recorded at their estimated fair values and added to those of SmartFinancial. Any excess of purchase price over the net estimated fair values of the acquired assets and liabilities of Cornerstone will be allocated to all identifiable intangible assets. Any remaining excess will then be allocated to goodwill. The goodwill resulting from the Merger will not be amortized to expense, but instead will be reviewed for impairment at least annually. To the extent goodwill were impaired, its carrying value would be written down to its implied fair value and a charge would be made to earnings. Intangibles with definite useful lives will be amortized to expense over their estimated useful lives. The Merger Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants by all parties. Conditions to each party’s obligation to consummate the Merger include the following, as well as other customary conditions: (1) approval of the Merger Agreement by shareholders of Cornerstone and SmartFinancial, (2) approval of the Merger by regulatory authorities, (3) action by no more than 7% of the outstanding shares of SmartFinancial common stock and Cornerstone common stock taken together that would establish the right to dissent from the Merger under Tennessee law, (4) redemption of outstanding shares of Cornerstone’s preferred stock and (5) the completion by Cornerstone of financing transactions that may be necessary to obtain regulatory approval of the Merger. Conditions to SmartFinancial’s obligation to consummate the Merger include the following: (1) evidence that Cornerstone has amended its charter to allow the redemption of its outstanding preferred stock, the conversion of SmartFinancial’s outstanding preferred stock and the reverse stock split, (2) approval by Cornerstone shareholders of an amended and restated charter, (3) approval by Cornerstone shareholders of amended and restated bylaws and (4) adoption by Cornerstone board of directors and approval by Cornerstone shareholders of an incentive compensation plan. The Merger Agreement provides certain termination rights for both Cornerstone and SmartFinancial and further provides that, upon termination of the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances, Cornerstone or SmartFinancial, as applicable, will be obligated to pay the other party a termination fee of $1,200,000 plus expenses.
