2018, by and among CNB Bank Shares, Inc., an Illinois corporation (“Acquiror”), CNB Acquisition, Inc., a Maryland
corporation (“Merger Sub”), and each stockholder of Jacksonville Bancorp, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”),
whose name appears on the signature page of this Agreement (such stockholders collectively referred to in this Agreement as the
“Principal Stockholders,” and individually as a “Principal Stockholder”).

 

Recitals

 

A.           As
of the date hereof, each Principal Stockholder is the owner of and controls voting power over the number of shares of the Company’s
common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Company Common Stock”), set forth opposite such Principal Stockholder’s
name on the signature page attached hereto.

 

B.           Acquiror
is contemplating the acquisition of the Company by means of a merger (the “Merger”) of the Merger Sub with
and into the Company, all pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger to be dated as of January 17,
2018 (the “Merger Agreement”), among Acquiror, Merger Sub and the Company.

 

C.           Acquiror
and Merger Sub are unwilling to expend the substantial time, effort and expense necessary to implement the Merger, including applying
for and obtaining necessary approvals of regulatory authorities, unless all of the Principal Stockholders enter into this Agreement.

 

Agreements

 

In consideration of the
foregoing premises, which are incorporated herein by this reference, and the covenants and agreements of the parties herein contained,
and as an inducement to Acquiror and Merger Sub to enter into the Merger Agreement and to incur the expenses associated with the
Merger, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

 

Section 1.            Representations
and Warranties. Each Principal Stockholder represents and warrants that as of the date hereof, he, she or it: (a) owns
beneficially and of record the number of shares of Company Common Stock set forth opposite such Principal Stockholder’s name
on the signature page attached hereto; (b) has the sole, or joint with any other Principal Stockholder, voting power, in each case
with respect to the shares of Company Common Stock set forth opposite such Principal Stockholder’s name on the signature
page attached hereto; and (c) has all necessary power and authority to enter into this Agreement, and further represents and warrants
that this Agreement is the legal, valid and binding agreement of such Principal Stockholder, and is enforceable against such Principal
Stockholder in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or
other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity.

 

Section 2.            Voting
Agreement; Proxy.

 

(a)          Each
Principal Stockholder hereby agrees that at any meeting of the Company’s stockholders however called, and any adjournment
or postponement thereof, and in any action by written consent of the Company’s stockholders, such Principal Stockholder shall
vote, or cause to be voted, all shares of Company Common Stock owned or controlled by him, her or it over which such Principal
Stockholder has the power to vote or direct the voting, at the time of such meeting of the Company’s stockholders (collectively,
the “Subject Shares”): (i) in favor of the approval of the Merger Agreement and the Merger and the other
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (ii) against any Acquisition Transaction, as defined in Section 1.1(c)
of the Merger Agreement, involving any party other than Acquiror or an Affiliate of Acquiror; and (iii) against any action
or agreement that could reasonably be expected to: (A) result in a material breach of any covenant, representation or warranty
or any other obligation of the Company under the Merger Agreement; or (B) in any manner prevent or materially impede, interfere
with or delay the Merger, the adoption of the Merger Agreement or the consummation of any of the transactions involving Acquiror
and Merger Sub contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

 

     

     

    

 

(b)           Each
Principal Stockholder hereby grants to, and appoints, Acquiror and Merger Sub, or any of them, and any individual designated in
writing by any of them, and each of them individually, as such Principal Stockholder’s proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full
power of substitution), for and in the name, place and stead of such Principal Stockholder, to vote such Principal Stockholder’s
Subject Shares, or grant a consent or approval in respect of such Subject Shares, solely for the matters covered by Section
2(a). Such Principal Stockholder understands and acknowledges that Acquiror and Merger Sub are entering into the Merger Agreement
in reliance upon such Principal Stockholder’s execution and delivery of this Agreement. Such Principal Stockholder hereby
affirms that the proxy set forth in this Section 2(b) is given in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement,
and that this proxy is given to secure the performance of the duties of such Principal Stockholder under this Agreement. Such Principal
Stockholder hereby further affirms that this proxy is coupled with an interest and may under no circumstances be revoked (except
that this proxy is automatically revoked and terminated upon termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 4).
Such Principal Stockholder hereby ratifies and confirms all that this proxy may lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.
This proxy is executed and intended to be irrevocable in accordance with the provisions of Section 2-507(d) of the General Corporation
Law of the State of Maryland (except that this proxy is automatically revoked and terminated upon termination of this Agreement
in accordance with Section 4). Such Principal Stockholder hereby represents that any proxies heretofore given by it in respect
of the Subject Shares with respect to the matters covered by this Section 2(b), if any, are revocable, and hereby revokes
such proxies. Upon delivery of written request to do so by Acquiror, such Principal Stockholder shall as promptly as practicable
execute and deliver to Acquiror and Merger Sub a separate written instrument or proxy that embodies the terms of this proxy as
set forth in this Section 2(b).

 

Section 3.            Additional
Covenants. Except as required by law, each Principal Stockholder agrees that he, she or it will:

 

(a)          not,
and will use its best efforts to not permit any of his, her or its Affiliates to, prior to the meeting of the Company’s stockholders
to approve the Merger, sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of, or permit to be sold, assigned, transferred or otherwise
disposed of, any shares of Company Common Stock owned of record or beneficially by such Principal Stockholder on or after the date
hereof, or engage in any discussions with any person or entity related to any of the foregoing, except: (i) for transfers by will
or by operation of law (in which case this Agreement shall bind the transferee); (ii) for a transfer for estate and tax planning
purposes, subject in each case to the transferee agreeing in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement; (iii) for shares
tendered to the Company to pay the exercise price of outstanding stock options; or (iv) as Acquiror may otherwise agree in writing
in its sole discretion;

 

(b)          except
as expressly permitted under, and subject to the conditions of, Section 6.6 of the Merger Agreement, not engage in
any activities, discussions or negotiations with any parties other than Acquiror or an Affiliate of Acquiror with respect to any
Acquisition Transaction, as defined in Section 1.1(c) of the Merger Agreement;

 

    	 	2	 

     

    

 

(c)          not
vote or execute any written consent to rescind or amend in any manner any prior vote or written consent to approve or adopt the
Merger Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated thereby;

 

(d)          use
his, her or its best efforts to cause any necessary meeting of the Company’s stockholders to be duly called and held, or
any necessary consent of stockholders to be obtained, for the purpose of approving or adopting the Merger Agreement and the transactions
contemplated thereby;

 

(e)          use
his or her best efforts to cause each of his, her or its Affiliates to cooperate fully with Acquiror in connection with the Merger
Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby; and

 

(f)          execute
and deliver such additional instruments and documents and take such further action as may be reasonably necessary to effectuate
and comply with his, her or its respective obligations under this Agreement.

 

Section 4.          Termination.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this Agreement shall automatically terminate on the earlier of: (a) 
the date of termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms; (b) the date, if any, on which the Company publicly
discloses that the board of directors of the Company (the “Company Board”) has withdrawn, qualified or adversely
modified its recommendation to the stockholders of the Company that the Company’s stockholders vote in favor of the approval
or adoption of the Merger Agreement, in each case because the Company Board has determined in good faith, after consultation with
outside counsel, that the taking of such action is reasonably necessary for it to comply with its fiduciary duties under applicable
law; (c) the completion of the Merger; or (d) the second anniversary of the date hereof.

 

Section 5.          Amendment
and Modification. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented at any time by the written approval of such amendment,
modification or supplement by Acquiror, Merger Sub and all of the Principal Stockholders.

 

Section 6.          Entire
Agreement. This Agreement evidences the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the matters provided
for herein and there are no agreements, representations or warranties with respect to the matters provided for herein other than
those set forth herein and in the Merger Agreement and any written agreements related thereto. Except for the Merger Agreement,
this Agreement supersedes any agreements and understandings, written or oral, among any of the Principal Stockholders and Acquiror
or Merger Sub concerning the acquisition, disposition or control of any shares of Company Common Stock.

 

Section 7.          No
Economic Benefit; Absence of Control. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in Acquiror any direct
or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to any of the Company Common Stock. All rights, ownership and
economic benefits of and relating to the Company Common Stock shall remain and belong to the applicable stockholder and Acquiror
shall have no power or authority to direct any stockholder in the voting of any of the Company Common Stock or the performance
by any stockholder of his, her or its duties or responsibilities as a stockholder of the Company, except as otherwise provided
herein. Subject to any specific provisions of this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties to this Agreement that neither Acquiror
nor Merger Sub, by reason of this Agreement, shall be deemed (until consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger
Agreement) to control, directly or indirectly, the Company and shall not exercise, or be deemed to exercise, directly or indirectly,
a controlling influence over the management or policies of the Company.

her or its choosing with regard to this Agreement and the transactions and consequences contemplated hereby. Each Principal Stockholder
further acknowledges that he, she or it has received a copy of the Merger Agreement and is familiar with its terms.

 

Section 9.          Severability.
Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable
law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision will be
ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining
provisions of this Agreement.
