Company to enter into a new Change of Control Agreement with the Executive, to reflect certain changes in corporate governance pay practices and certain legally-required changes; 

WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee has authorized the Company to enter into this Change of Control Agreement with the Executive;

calendar months thereafter (the “Initial Term”). This term of this Change of Control Agreement will automatically renew for twenty-four (24) full calendar months thereafter on the third anniversary of the Effective Date and on each

 ARTICLE 3 
 PAYMENTS 
 3.1 Qualifying Termination. If during the Protected

accrued obligations, severance pay and severance benefits in accordance with Sections 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 hereof. If the Executive’s employment with the Employer Entities is terminated (i) for any reason prior to or after the Protected Period
or (ii) other than pursuant to a Qualifying Termination during the Protected Period, then the Executive will not be entitled to the payment of any severance or provision of any benefits under this Change of Control Agreement. 

3.2 Accrued Benefits. In the event of a Qualifying Termination described in Section 3.1 hereof, the Employer Entities will
pay to the Executive any accrued and unpaid base salary and paid time-off, within thirty (30) days following the date of Qualifying Termination or such earlier date as is required by law. 

3.3 Severance Pay. Subject to Article 7 hereof, in the event of a Qualifying Termination described in Section 3.1 hereof, the
Employer Entities will pay to the Executive an amount equal to two (2) times: (i) the Executive’s annual base salary immediately prior to the Change of Control; (ii) the average of the aggregate annual amount of all bonuses paid
to the Executive during the thirty-six (36) month period (or the Executive’s period of employment with the Employer Entities, if less) preceding the Change of Control; (iii) the aggregate amount of all contributions by the Company for
the account of the Executive under the First Commonwealth Financial Corporation 401(k) Savings and Investment Plan and the First Commonwealth Financial Corporation Stock Ownership Plan during the twelve (12) month period preceding the Change of
Control; and (iv) the aggregate of all contributions by the Company for the account of the Executive to the Company’s Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan during the twelve (12) month period preceding the Change of Control.
Subject to Article 7 hereof, such sum will be paid in equal periodic installments payable in accordance with the Employer Entity’s normal payroll practices during the twenty-four (24) month period immediately following such Qualifying
Termination (the “Severance Period”). 
 3.4 Continued Health Insurance Benefits. In addition to the severance
payable pursuant to Section 3.3 hereof, in the event of a Qualifying Termination described in Section 3.1 hereof, the Employer Entities will offer continuation coverage to the Executive, as required by the Consolidated Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), under the Company’s group health plan on the terms and conditions mandated by COBRA and the Company will pay the full cost of the COBRA premiums on behalf of the Executive and his
covered family members during the eighteen (18) month period immediately following such Qualifying Termination. 
 3.5
Other Compensation and Benefits. 

  
 5 








 (a) Except as expressly provided for in Article 3 hereof, the Executive will not be entitled
to severance pay or benefits under any plan, program, policy, practice or other arrangement of any Employer Entity in connection with any Qualifying Termination, including without limitation this Change of Control Agreement or any severance policy
of any Employer Entity. 
 (b) During the Severance Period, the Executive will not be eligible to participate in any Employer
Entity equity-based incentive, other incentive, 401(k) savings, employee stock ownership, deferred compensation, supplemental retirement, supplemental savings, life insurance, short or long term disability, employee welfare benefit, fringe benefit,
perquisite, vacation, paid time-off or other employee benefit plan, program, policy, practice or other arrangement of any Employer Entity. 
 (c) Unless otherwise determined by the Board or applicable committee thereof, any outstanding options or other equity based awards held by the Executive to purchase or acquire Employer stock under any
equity-based plan of any Employer Entity will be subject to the exercisability, vesting and forfeiture provisions of the respective plan. Any benefits the Executive has earned with respect to his employment for periods on or prior to the Qualifying
Termination under any annual incentive, deferred compensation, supplement retirement or savings, 401(k), employer stock ownership or similar plan of any Employer Entity will be paid in accordance with the terms of such plan. 

3.6 Release. The Company’s obligation to make any payment to the Executive as described in this Article 3 is contingent
upon the Executive’s execution and non-revocation of a release within sixty (60) days following the Executive’s Separation from Service, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that, in the opinion of the
Company’s counsel, is effective to release the Company from all claims relating to the Executive’s employment or the termination thereof (other than under the terms of this Change of Control Agreement), and the Company will have no
obligation to make any payment unless and until such a release has become effective. 
 3.7 Business Expenses. The
Employer Entities will reimburse the Executive for any unreimbursed, reasonable business expenses incurred by the Executive on or before the Qualifying Termination, pursuant to Employer’s reimbursement policies, provided that Executive present
all expense reports to Employer in accordance with such policies. All such expense reports must be submitted within thirty (30) days following the date of the Qualifying Termination. 

3.8 Withholding Taxes and Other Deductions. The Employer Entities may withhold from any payments made to the Executive any
applicable federal, state, local and other taxes (such as employment taxes), and such other deductions as are prescribed by law. This includes withholding amounts from payments made pursuant to this Article 3 in order to satisfy any withholding
obligations.

 ARTICLE 4 
 LIMITATION ON PAYMENT OF BENEFITS 
 Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Change of Control Agreement, if the payments and benefits pursuant to Article 3 hereof, either alone or together with other payments and benefits which the Executive has the right to receive from the Company or any of its
subsidiaries, would constitute a “parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code, the payments and benefits pursuant to Article 3 hereof will be reduced, in the manner determined by independent tax counsel selected as provided
below, by the amount, if any, which is the minimum necessary to result in no portion of the payments and benefits under Article 3 hereof being non-deductible to the Company or such subsidiary pursuant to Section 280G of the Code and subject to
the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code; provided, however, that if such procedure for determining the reduction of payments and benefits is determined by the Company to result in a violation of Section 409A, such reduction
will be made on a pro rata basis. The determination of whether any reduction in the payments and benefits is to be made pursuant to Article 3 hereof will be based upon the written advice of independent tax counsel selected by the Company and
reasonably acceptable to the Executive. The fees and expenses of the tax counsel will be paid by the Company. The Company will use its best efforts to cause such counsel to prepare the foregoing opinion as promptly as practicable, and in any event,
within thirty (30) days after the Change of Control or date of Qualifying Termination, if earlier. The Company and the Executive agree to be bound by the determination of such tax counsel and to make appropriate payments to each other to give
effect to the intent and purpose of this Article 4. 
 ARTICLE 5 

BENEFICIARIES 
 If the Executive dies after the occurrence of a Qualifying Termination, but prior to the payment of all of the monthly severance payments required by Article 3 hereof, then all remaining severance
payments will be paid to the beneficiary designated in writing by the Executive at the same time, and in the same amount, as would have been payable to the Executive. The designation of a beneficiary for purposes of this Article 5 will be revocable
during the lifetime of the Executive. If the Executive does not designate a beneficiary under this Change of Control Agreement, the beneficiary will be deemed to be the same person that the Executive designated with respect to the Executive’s
group life insurance program maintained by the Company. 
 ARTICLE 6 

EXECUTIVE COVENANTS 
 6.1 Non-Disparagement. The Executive agrees that he will not, in writing or orally, or through conduct, disparage, deprecate, discredit, vilify or otherwise say anything negative about the Employer

 6.2 Non-Disclosure of Confidential Information. The Executive recognizes and

customers and prospective customers, amount or kind of customers’ purchases from the Employer Entities, the Employer Entities’ sources of supply, the Employer Entities’ computer programs, system documentation, special hardware,

Entities or relating to the Employer Entities’ affairs (collectively referred to herein as the “Confidential Information”); (b) the Confidential Information is the property of the Employer Entities; (c) the use,
misappropriation or disclosure of the Confidential Information would constitute a breach of trust and could cause irreparable injury to the Employer Entities; and (d) it is essential to the protection of the Employer Entities’ good will
and to the maintenance of the Employer Entities’ competitive position that the Confidential Information be kept secret and that the Executive not disclose the Confidential Information to others or use the Confidential Information to the
Executive’s own advantage or the advantage of others. Confidential Information will not include information otherwise available in the public domain through no act or omission of the Executive. The Executive agrees to hold and safeguard the
Confidential Information in trust for the Employer Entities, its successors and assigns and agrees that he will not, without the prior written consent of the Employer Entities, misappropriate or disclose or make available to anyone for use outside
the Employer Entities’ organizations at any time, either during his employment with any Employer Entity or subsequent to the termination of his employment with the Employer Entities for any reason, including without limitation, termination by
any Employer Entity, any of the Confidential Information, whether or not developed by the Executive, except as required in the performance of the Executive’s duties to the Employer Entities. 

6.3 Non-Solicitation of Employees. The Executive agrees that, during the term of his employment with any Employer Entity
and for twenty-four (24) months following termination of the Executive’s employment with the Employer Entities for any reason, including without limitation termination by any Employer Entity for Cause or without Cause, the Executive will

whatsoever, or to hire any such employee

employment with the Employer Entities for any reason, the Executive will promptly deliver to the Employer Entities all correspondence, drawings, blueprints, manuals, letters, notes, notebooks, reports, flow-charts, computer equipment, programs,
software, databases, proposals, financial statements and reports, and any documents concerning the Employer Entities’ customers or concerning products or processes used by the Employer Entities and, without limiting the foregoing, will promptly
deliver to the Employer Entities any and all other documents or materials containing or constituting Confidential Information. 

  
 8 








 6.5 Work Made for Hire. The Executive agrees that in the event of publication by the
Executive of written or graphic materials constituting “work made for hire,” as defined and used in the Copyright Act of 1976, 17 USC § 1 et seq., the Employer Entities will retain and own all rights in said
materials, including right of copyright. 
 6.6 Jurisdiction and Service of Process. The Executive and the Company waive
any right to a court (including jury) proceeding and instead agree to submit any dispute over the application, interpretation, validity, or any other aspect of this Change of Control Agreement to binding arbitration consistent with the application
of the Federal Arbitration Act and the procedural rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) before an arbitrator who is a member of the National Academy of Arbitrators (“NAA”) out of a nationwide panel of
eleven (11) arbitrators to be supplied by the AAA. The Company will absorb the fee charged and the expenses incurred by the neutral arbitrator selected. 
 6.7 Validity. The terms and provisions of this Article 6 are intended to be separate and divisible provisions and if, for any reason, any one or more of them is held to be invalid or unenforceable,
neither the validity nor the enforceability of any other provision of this Change of Control Agreement will thereby be affected. The parties hereto acknowledge that the potential restrictions on the Executive’s future employment imposed by this
Article 6 are reasonable in both duration and geographic scope and in all other respects. If for any reason any court of competent jurisdiction will find any provisions of this Article 6 unreasonable in duration or geographic scope or otherwise, the
Executive and the Company agree that the restrictions and prohibitions contained herein will be effective to the fullest extent allowed under applicable law in such jurisdiction.

 ARTICLE 7 
 SECTION 409A 
 7.1 This Change of Control Agreement will be administered,
interpreted and construed in compliance with Section 409A, including any exemption thereunder. Each payment hereunder, including each installment payment, will be treated as a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A. With respect to
payments subject to Section 409A (and not exempt therefrom), each such payment will be paid as a result of a permissible distribution event, and at a specified time, consistent with Section 409A. The Executive has no right to, and there
will not be, any acceleration or deferral with respect to payments hereunder. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company will not be liable for, and nothing provided or contained in this Change of Control Agreement will obligate or cause

for, any tax, interest or penalties imposed on the Executive related to or arising with respect to any violation of Section 409A. For purposes of this Change of Control Agreement, any

 7.2 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Change of Control Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that any amount payable or benefit to be provided under this Change of Control Agreement
constitutes Section 409A Deferred Compensation that is not exempt from Section 409A, and such amount or benefit is payable or to be provided as a result of Separation from Service, and the Executive is a “specified employee” (as
defined and determined under Section 409A and any relevant procedures that the Company may establish) (“Specified Employee”) at the time of his Separation from Service, then such payment or benefit will not be made or provided to the
Executive until the day after the date that is six months following the Executive’s Separation from Service, at which time all payments or benefits that otherwise would have been paid or provided to the Executive under this Change of Control
Agreement during that six-month period, but were not paid or provided because of this Section 7.2, will be paid or provided, with any cash payment to be made in a single lump sum (without any interest with respect to that six-month
period). This six-month delay will cease to be applicable if the Executive’s Separation from Service due to death or if the Executive dies before the six-month period has elapsed, in which event any such payments or benefits will be paid
or provided to the Executive’s estate within thirty (30) days of the date of death.

provision of this Change of Control Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that any amount payable or benefit to be provided under this Change of Control Agreement constitutes Section 409A Deferred Compensation that is not exempt from
Section 409A and the Executive is not a Specified Employee at the time of his Separation from Service, then such payment or benefit will not be provided to the Executive until the sixtieth (60th) day following the Executive’s
Separation from Service, at which time all payments or benefits that otherwise would have been paid or provided to the Executive under this Change of Control Agreement during the sixty (60) days period, but were not paid or provided because of
this Section 7.3, will be paid or provided, with any cash payment to be made in a single lump sum (without any interest with respect to that sixty-day period).
