Letter From The President

as a member of the Banterra Team , i am proud to share the exceptional results of our team’s efforts, the positive impact it has had on the bank’s strong financial performance and the enhancement of the communities in which we all live. we continually strive to improve and grow our existing customer relationships. if you are considering banking with Banterra , it is our goal that this information and the experience you have had or will have with our team members communicates the bank’s strength and dedication to our slogan “banking with local style.” we mean it.

Banterra will celebrate its 40 th anniversary in 2015. Banterra started with a single location in Ridgway, illinois, and today, the bank is the region’s largest locallyowned financial institution with 35 branches located in Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky and Missouri with total assets of $1.3 billion. Banterra now stands in the top five percent of banks in Illinois and top ten percent in the nation. This growth is reflective of hard work and smart expansion and acquisitions, such as the recent merger of area bank and new branches in East prairie and st. louis, Missouri. our success comes by maintaining core objectives. we are motivated to provide the highest results to our stakeholders, which include customers, team members, shareholders and communities in which we live. we utilize the business expertise of a strong board of directors, as well as regional advisory boards in our regions. we continually innovate and design new products and strive to offer the best in service and conveniences. we support the needs of our communities with almost

30% of the marketing budget dedicated to community contributions.

Most of all, we have a dedicated Banterra Team of almost 400 employees ready to serve your financial needs. The bank routinely celebrates the impressive milestones of employee anniversaries such as 25, 30 and 35 years of service, and that doesn’t happen with just any company. Banterra is locally owned and managed and we live in the same communities as the people and companies we serve.

we accomplished a great deal in 2014 and we have a lot more planned in 2015.

We truly appreciate the opportunity to meet your financial needs. I invite you to visit Banterra.com

Regards,

Jeff May

Community

at Banterra , we understand the importance of service and taking care of our community. that’s probably because we understand that our business is about relationships, meeting customers’ needs, and doing what we can to improve our neighborhoods.

that’s why we make it a point to support our communities. sometimes it is through sponsoring a local event or donating to our schools. oftentimes, it is our employees as well as our customers supporting fund-raising promotions that are ongoing in our branches.

Banterra supported hundreds of community needs in 2014, including donating buildings in Metropolis (for use of a courthouse), paducah

(for use of habitat for humanity) and Mt. Vernon (for use of downtown development). Banterra also raised $9,000 for Associated Fire Fighters of Illinois, as well as provided promotional support, to assist AFFI in presenting an equipped vehicle to a wounded soldier from Southern Illinois.

If your charity, organization, or event would like to request a donation or sponsorship from Banterra , simply stop by your local branch and talk to a banking center Manager. you’ll be provided with a form to complete for consideration.

Special Events

Banterra wants to be the financial partner that helps you reach your american dream, whether that is buying a home or starting your own business. You’ll also find that we are a financial partner that wants you to have fun! we sometimes offer special events that raise money for a charity or show our customer appreciation.

whether it is offering discount tickets to a st. louis cardinals baseball game or the world-famous grand ole opry, we turn fundraisers into fun raisers by presenting events that raise money for local charities.

you may also see fun customer appreciation events not only in our branches, but also in our communities, such as a football tailgate or a special lunch for our farmers. at Banterra , we want to get to know our customers and these limited opportunities often support that goal.

For Banterra’s latest updates on community service and special events, as well as more information on Banterra , go to Banterra.com

Community

at Banterra , we understand the importance of service and taking care of our community. that’s probably because we understand that our business is about relationships, meeting customers’ needs, and doing what we can to improve our neighborhoods.

that’s why we make it a point to support our communities. sometimes it is through sponsoring a local event or donating to our schools. oftentimes, it is our employees as well as our customers supporting fund-raising promotions that are ongoing in our branches.

Banterra supported hundreds of community needs in 2014, including donating buildings in Metropolis (for use of a courthouse), paducah

(for use of habitat for humanity) and Mt. Vernon (for use of downtown development). Banterra also raised $9,000 for Associated Fire Fighters of Illinois, as well as provided promotional support, to assist AFFI in presenting an equipped vehicle to a wounded soldier from Southern Illinois.

If your charity, organization, or event would like to request a donation or sponsorship from Banterra , simply stop by your local branch and talk to a banking center Manager. you’ll be provided with a form to complete for consideration.

Special Events

Banterra wants to be the financial partner that helps you reach your american dream, whether that is buying a home or starting your own business. You’ll also find that we are a financial partner that wants you to have fun! we sometimes offer special events that raise money for a charity or show our customer appreciation.

whether it is offering discount tickets to a st. louis cardinals baseball game or the world-famous grand ole opry, we turn fundraisers into fun raisers by presenting events that raise money for local charities.

you may also see fun customer appreciation events not only in our branches, but also in our communities, such as a football tailgate or a special lunch for our farmers. at Banterra , we want to get to know our customers and these limited opportunities often support that goal.
