Explanatory Note
     On October 1, 2010, Home BancShares, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Report”) to report that its wholly owned subsidiary, Centennial Bank, had acquired the banking operations of Wakulla Bank, a Florida state-chartered bank headquartered in Crawfordville, Florida (“Wakulla”), through an agreement with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). Centennial Bank entered into a purchase and assumption agreement with the FDIC, as receiver for Wakulla, on October 1, 2010, pursuant to which Centennial Bank acquired the performing loans and certain assets and assumed substantially all of the deposits and certain liabilities of Wakulla. The final carrying values and the final list of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed remains subject to finalization and revision by the FDIC and Centennial Bank. Once such terms are finalized, the acquisition will be deemed to be effective as of October 1, 2010.
     This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (the “Amendment”) amends and supplements the disclosure provided in the Report. Except as otherwise provided herein, the other disclosures made in the Report remain unchanged. The Company anticipates that it will further amend the Report and this Amendment at a later date to the extent additional financial information is required by Item 9.01.
     Statements made in this Amendment, other than those concerning historical financial information, may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are subject to risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding the Company’s expectations concerning its financial condition, operating results, cash flows, liquidity and capital resources. A discussion of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from management’s expectations is set forth under the captions “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, and in its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010.
Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement
     Effective October 1, 2010, Centennial Bank assumed substantially all of the deposits and acquired certain assets and certain liabilities of Wakulla from the FDIC, as receiver for Wakulla (the “Acquisition”), pursuant to the terms of a Purchase and Assumption Agreement entered into by and among Centennial Bank, the FDIC, as receiver for Wakulla, and the FDIC, on October 1, 2010 (the “Agreement”).
     Under the terms of the Agreement, Centennial Bank acquired approximately $322.4 million in assets, including approximately $236.7 million in loans held by Wakulla, $45.9 million of marketable securities, $9.8 million of cash and cash equivalents (excluding cash paid by the FDIC to complete the Acquisition), $27.6 million of federal funds sold and $2.4 million of other assets. Centennial Bank also assumed approximately $354.4 million in liabilities, including approximately $354.2 million in customer deposits. We did not acquire any non-performing loans or other real estate owned of Wakulla, nor any FHLB borrowings of Wakulla. In addition, no assets were acquired or liabilities assumed from Wakulla’s parent entity. The deposits were acquired at no premium and assets were acquired at a discount to Wakulla’s historic book value as of October 1, 2010 of approximately $52.9 million, subject to customary adjustments. In connection with the Acquisition, the FDIC has made a payment to Centennial Bank in the amount of approximately $80.9 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments based upon the final closing date balance sheet for Wakulla. The cash payment is settlement for the net equity received, assets discount bid, charge-offs since July 28, 2010, and other customary closing adjustments. The terms of the Agreement provide for the FDIC to indemnify Centennial Bank against certain claims, including claims with respect to liabilities of Wakulla not assumed or otherwise purchased by Centennial Bank, claims made by shareholders of Wakulla, and claims based on any prior action or inaction by Wakulla’s directors, officers and other employees.
     In connection with the Acquisition, Centennial Bank entered into loss sharing agreements with the FDIC. Pursuant to the terms of the loss sharing agreements, the FDIC is obligated to reimburse Centennial Bank for 70% of losses on the first loss tranche of up to $15.7 million in single family residential loans and up to $22.7 million in commercial loans. The FDIC will reimburse Centennial Bank for 30% of losses on the second loss tranche including the next $8.6 million in single family residential loans and the next $25.7 million in commercial loans.

The FDIC will reimburse Centennial Bank for 80% of losses above these amounts with respect to covered loans. Centennial Bank will reimburse the FDIC for 70%, 30% and 80%, respectively, of recoveries with respect to losses for which the FDIC paid Centennial Bank the respective percentage reimbursement under the loss sharing agreements. The loss sharing agreements do not provide loss sharing for consumer loans, estimated to total approximately $23.2 million, which we acquired from Wakulla.
     In addition, on December 15, 2020 (the “True-Up Measurement Date”), Centennial Bank has agreed to pay the FDIC 50% of the excess, if any, of (i) 20% of an intrinsic loss estimate of $73.0 million, less (ii) the sum of (A) 20% of the net loss amount (the sum of all losses less the sum of all recoveries on covered assets) plus (B) 25% of the asset premium (discount) plus (C) 3.5% of the total loans subject to loss sharing under the loss sharing agreements as specified in the schedules to the Agreement.
     Centennial Bank did not acquire the real estate, banking facilities, furniture and equipment of Wakulla as part of the Acquisition but may exercise its option under the Agreement within 90 days after the Acquisition to purchase some or all of these assets at fair market value from the FDIC.
     All capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined are ascribed the meanings as given in the Agreement.
