Farmers National Banc Corp. Cancels Special Meeting and Intends to Simplify
Shareholder Proposals

June 14, 2010, Canfield, Ohio. Farmers National Banc Corp. (OTCBB:FMNB) (the “Corporation”) announced today that it has cancelled the Special Meeting of Shareholders scheduled for June 17, 2010 and has ceased soliciting proxies pursuant to its definitive proxy statement (filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 12, 2010) to vote on proposed amendments to the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation and Code of Regulations, and to approve and adopt the 2010 Replacement Equity Plan. The proxy statement included seven separate shareholder proposals. Members of management have been responding to a significant number of questions from shareholders regarding the proposed amendments.

“It has become clear from our dialogue with our shareholders that the sheer number of proposals has created quite a bit of confusion, said Frank Paden, President of the Corporation. Paden added that “although the proposals have received substantial support, we think that this confusion has resulted in many shareholders opting not to vote at all on key proposals.”

Because the charter amendments unanimously recommended by the board require approval by 2/3rds of the outstanding shares, the Corporation has determined that the low voter response that it is experiencing on key issues makes it inadvisable to proceed with the special meeting. In order to address these concerns, the board has decided to eliminate all but the most critical amendments and ask shareholders to approve those proposals at a subsequent meeting.

One proposal that the board continues to believe is vital is the elimination of pre-emptive rights. John Gulas, the Corporation’s Chief Operating Officer, commented that “eliminating preemptive rights is essential to the Corporation’s ability to take advantage of opportunities to raise capital on a timely basis. Farmers National Bank continues to experience tremendous growth and capital is required to fund that growth.” Mr. Gulas added that “in a volatile market, we must be able to move quickly to raise capital when opportunities present themselves, and the need to comply with preemptive rights hampers our ability to do that.”

The board and management are reviewing the current proposals with a view to reducing their number and complexity. The Corporation intends to soon file and distribute new proxy materials

to the Corporation’s shareholders and announce the date and time for a new Special Meeting of Shareholders.
