ARTICLE II

The Merger

2.1 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, CKF Bancorp will merge with and into Kentucky First (the “Merger”) at the Effective Time. At the Effective Time, the separate corporate existence of CKF Bancorp shall cease. Kentucky First shall be the surviving corporation (hereinafter sometimes referred to in such capacity as the “Surviving Corporation”) in the Merger and shall continue to be governed by the HOLA and its name and separate corporate existence, with all of its rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises, shall continue unaffected by the Merger.

2.2 Closing. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) will take place by the electronic (PDF), facsimile or overnight courier exchange of executed documents or at a location and at a time as agreed to by the parties hereto on the date designated by Kentucky First within fifteen (15) Business Days following satisfaction or waiver (subject to applicable law) of the conditions to Closing set forth in Article VI (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing), or such later date as the parties may otherwise agree (the “Closing Date”).

2.3 Effective Time. In connection with the Closing, Kentucky First and CKF Bancorp shall duly execute and deliver a certificate or certificates of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) to the Federal Reserve and to the Delaware Secretary of State for filing pursuant to the HOLA and the regulations of the Federal Reserve thereunder and the DGCL. The Merger shall become effective at such time as the Certificate of Merger is duly filed with the Federal Reserve and the Delaware Secretary of State or at such later date or time as Kentucky First and CKF Bancorp agree and specify in the Certificate of Merger (the date and time the Merger becomes effective being the “Effective Time”).

2.4 Effects of the Merger. The Merger will have the effects set forth in the HOLA and the regulations of the Federal Reserve thereunder and the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, from and after the Effective Time, Kentucky First shall possess all of the properties, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of CKF Bancorp and be subject to all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of CKF Bancorp.

2.5 Effect on Outstanding Shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.6 hereof, by virtue of the Merger, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, with respect to the holder’s shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock issued and outstanding at the Effective Time, other than Excluded Shares, as provided in and subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, the holder may elect to receive in exchange for 100% of his or her shares (i) $9.50 in cash without interest for each share of CKF Bancorp Common Stock held by such holder (the “Cash Consideration”), (ii) the number of shares of Kentucky First Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Kentucky First Common Stock”), equal to the Exchange Ratio, as defined below, for each share of CKF Bancorp Common Stock held by such holder (the “Stock Consideration”), or (iii) a combination of the Cash Consideration for 40% of the shares held by such holder and the Stock Consideration for 60% of the shares held by such holder. The Cash Consideration and Stock Consideration are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “Merger Consideration.”

The “Exchange Ratio” shall be 1.0556 if the Kentucky First Price, as defined below, is at or above $9.00. If the Kentucky First Price is at or below $7.50, then the Exchange Ratio shall be 1.2667. If the Kentucky First Price is below $9.00 but above $7.50, then the Exchange Ratio shall be equal to $9.50 divided by a number equal to the Kentucky First Price (rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth). “Kentucky First Price” means the average of the average daily sales price (the average of the high and low sales price, rounded up to the nearest cent) of Kentucky First Common Stock, as reported on the Nasdaq Global Market, for the ten latest Trading Days, as defined below, preceding the date that is four business days prior to the Closing Date (“Measurement Period”). “Trading Day” means any day on which at least 100 shares of Kentucky First Common Stock are traded, as reported on the Nasdaq Global Market.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no fraction of a share of Kentucky First Common Stock and no certificates or scrip therefor will be issued in the Merger; instead, Kentucky First shall pay to each holder of CKF Bancorp Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of Kentucky First Common Stock an amount in cash, rounded to the nearest cent, determined by multiplying such fraction by the Kentucky First Price.

(c) If, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Kentucky First Common Stock shall have been changed into a different number of shares or into a different class by reason of any stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination or exchange of shares or any similar transaction, the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted appropriately to provide the holders of CKF Bancorp Common Stock the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.

(d) As of the Effective Time, each Excluded Share, other than Dissenters’ Shares, shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no exchange or payment shall be made with respect thereto. All shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock that are held by Kentucky First, if any, other than shares held in a fiduciary capacity or in satisfaction of a debt previously contracted, shall be canceled and shall constitute authorized but unissued shares. In addition, no Dissenters’ Shares shall be converted into shares of Kentucky First Common Stock pursuant to this Section 2.5 but instead shall be treated in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 2.12 of this Agreement.

2.6 Election and Proration Procedures.

(a) An election form in such form as CKF Bancorp and Kentucky First shall mutually agree (an “Election Form”) shall be mailed on the Mailing Date (as defined below) to each holder of record of shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock as of a record date which shall be the same date as the record date for eligibility to vote on the Merger. The “Mailing Date” shall be the date on which proxy materials relating to the Merger are mailed to holders of shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock. Kentucky First shall make available Election Forms as may be reasonably requested by all persons who become holders of CKF Bancorp Common Stock after the record date for eligibility to vote on the Merger and prior to the Election Deadline (as defined herein), and CKF Bancorp shall provide to the Exchange Agent all information reasonably necessary for it to perform its obligations as specified herein.

(b) Each Election Form shall entitle the holder of shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock (or the beneficial owner through appropriate and customary documentation and instructions) to (i) elect to receive the Cash Consideration for all of such holder’s shares (a “Cash Election”), (ii) elect to receive the Stock Consideration for all of such holder’s shares (a “Stock Election”), (iii) elect to receive a combination of cash and Kentucky First Common Stock, as described in clause (iii) of Section 2.5(a) herein, for all of such holder’s shares (a “Mixed Election”) or (iv) make no election or to indicate that such holder has no preference as to the receipt of the Cash Consideration or the Stock Consideration (a “Non-Election”). Holders of record of shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock who hold such shares as nominees, trustees or in other representative capacities (a “Representative”) may submit multiple Election Forms, provided that such Representative certifies that each such Election Form covers all the shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock held by that Representative for a particular beneficial owner. Shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock as to which a Cash Election has been made (including pursuant to a Mixed Election) are referred to herein as “Cash Election Shares.” Shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock as to which a Stock Election has been made (including pursuant to a Mixed Election) are referred to herein as “Stock Election Shares.” Shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock as to which no election has been made are referred to as “Non-Election Shares.” The aggregate number of shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock with respect to which a Stock Election has been made is referred to herein as the “Stock Election Number.”

(c) To be effective, a properly completed Election Form must be received by Illinois Stock Transfer Company (the “Exchange Agent”) on or before 5:00 p.m., Central Time, on the third business day subsequent to CKF Bancorp’s Stockholder Meeting (or such other time and date as CKF Bancorp and Kentucky First may mutually agree) (the “Election Deadline”). An election shall have been properly made only if the Exchange Agent shall have actually received a properly completed Election Form by the Election Deadline. An Election Form shall be deemed properly completed only if accompanied by one or more certificates theretofore representing CKF Bancorp Common Stock (“Certificate(s)”) (or customary affidavits and, if required by Kentucky First pursuant to Section 2.7(i), indemnification regarding the loss or destruction of such Certificates or the guaranteed delivery of such Certificates) representing all shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock covered by such Election Form, together with duly executed transmittal materials included with the Election Form. Any CKF Bancorp stockholder may at any time prior to the Election Deadline change his or her election by written notice received by the Exchange Agent prior to the Election Deadline accompanied by a properly completed and signed revised Election Form. Any CKF Bancorp stockholder may, at any time prior to the Election Deadline, revoke his or her election by written notice received by the Exchange Agent prior to the Election Deadline or by withdrawal prior to the Election Deadline of his or her Certificates, or of the guarantee of delivery of such Certificates, previously deposited with the Exchange Agent. All elections shall be revoked automatically if the Exchange Agent is notified in writing by Kentucky First and CKF Bancorp that this Agreement has been terminated. If a stockholder either (i) does not submit a properly completed Election Form by the Election Deadline or (ii) revokes its Election Form prior to the Election Deadline and does not submit a new properly executed Election Form prior to the Election Deadline, the shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock held by such stockholder shall be designated Non-Election Shares. Kentucky First shall cause the Certificates representing CKF Bancorp Common Stock described in clause (ii) to be promptly returned without charge to the person submitting the Election Form upon written request to that effect from the person who submitted the Election Form. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and of the Election Form, the Exchange Agent shall have reasonable discretion to determine whether any election, revocation or change has been properly or timely made and to disregard immaterial defects in any Election Form, and any good faith decisions of the Exchange Agent regarding such matters shall be binding and conclusive.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, the number of shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock outstanding at the Effective Time that shall be converted into the Stock Consideration will equal the Stock Conversion Number, as defined below, and the remaining outstanding shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock (excluding shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock to be canceled as provided in Section 2.5(d) and Dissenters’ Shares) shall be converted into the Cash Consideration. The “Stock Conversion Number” shall be the lesser of: (i) 60% of the total number of shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock issued and outstanding at the Effective Time, rounded down to the nearest whole number; or (ii) 811,375 shares divided by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for federal income tax purposes and solely so as to ensure that the Merger will qualify as a reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a) of the IRC, Kentucky First in its sole discretion may elect to increase the Stock Conversion Number to ensure that the Stock Consideration will represent at least 40% of the value of the aggregate Merger Consideration, increased by the value of any Excluded Shares, each as measured as of the Effective Time. In such event, the Stock Conversion Number shall be equal to the number of shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock as increased in the sole discretion of Kentucky First pursuant to the preceding sentence.

(e) Within five business days after the later to occur of the Election Deadline or the Effective Time, Kentucky First shall cause the Exchange Agent to effect the allocation among holders of CKF Bancorp Common Stock of rights to receive the Cash Consideration or the Stock Consideration as follows:

(i) If the Stock Election Number exceeds the Stock Conversion Number, then all Cash Election Shares and all Non-Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration, and each holder of Stock Election Shares will be entitled to receive (A) the Stock Consideration in respect of the number of Stock Election Shares held by such holder multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Stock Conversion Number and the denominator of which is the Stock Election Number and (B) the Cash Consideration in respect of the remaining number of such holder’s Stock Election Shares;

(ii) If the Stock Election Number is less than the Stock Conversion Number (the amount by which the Stock Conversion Number exceeds the Stock Election Number being referred to herein as the “Shortfall Number”), then all Stock Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration and the Non-Election Shares and Cash Election Shares shall be treated in the following manner:

(A) if the Shortfall Number is less than or equal to the number of Non-Election Shares, then all Cash Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration and each holder of Non-Election Shares shall receive (1) the Stock Consideration in respect of the number of Non-Election Shares held by such holder multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Shortfall Number and the denominator of which is the total number of Non-Election Shares and (2) the Cash Consideration in respect of the remaining number of such holder’s Non-Election Shares; or

(B) if the Shortfall Number exceeds the number of Non-Election Shares, then all Non-Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration, and each holder of Cash Election Shares shall receive (1) the Stock Consideration in respect of the number of Cash Election Shares held by such holder multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount by which the Shortfall Number exceeds the number of Non-Election Shares and the denominator of which is the total number of Cash Election Shares and (2) the Cash Consideration in respect of the remaining number of such holder’s Cash Election Shares.

For purposes of the foregoing calculations, Excluded Shares shall be deemed Cash Election Shares. For purposes of this Section 2.6(e), if Kentucky First is obligated to increase the number of shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock to be converted into shares of Kentucky First Common Stock as a result of the application of the last clause of Section 2.6(d) above, then the higher number shall be substituted for the Stock Conversion Number in the calculations set forth in this Section 2.6(e).

2.7 Exchange Procedures.

(a) Appropriate transmittal materials (“Letter of Transmittal”) in a form satisfactory to Kentucky First and CKF Bancorp shall be mailed by the Exchange Agent as soon as practicable after the Effective Time (and in any event not later than five Business Days following the Effective Time) to each holder of record of CKF Bancorp Common Stock as of the Effective Time who did not previously submit a completed Election Form. A Letter of Transmittal will be deemed properly completed only if accompanied by certificates representing all shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock to be converted thereby.

(b) At and after the Effective Time, each Certificate (except as specifically set forth in Section 2.5) shall represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration.

Covenants

5.1 Acquisition Proposals.

(a) From the date of this Agreement until the earlier to occur of the Closing or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, CKF Bancorp shall not, and shall not authorize or permit any of its Subsidiaries or any of its Subsidiaries’ officers, directors or employees or any investment banker, financial advisor, attorney, accountant or other representative retained by CKF Bancorp or any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate or encourage, or take any other action to facilitate, any inquiries, discussions or the making of any proposal that constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, (ii) furnish any information or data regarding CKF Bancorp or any of its Subsidiaries to any person in connection with or in response to an Acquisition Proposal or an inquiry or indication of interest that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, (iii) continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations, or otherwise communicate in any way with any person (other than Kentucky First), regarding an Acquisition Proposal, (iv) approve, endorse or recommend any Acquisition Proposal, or (v) enter into or consummate any agreement, arrangement or understanding contemplating any Acquisition Proposal or requiring it to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that any violation of the restrictions set forth in the preceding sentence by any officer, director or employee of CKF Bancorp or any of its Subsidiaries or any investment banker, financial advisor, attorney, accountant or other representative retained by CKF Bancorp or any of its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 5.1 by CKF Bancorp. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the adoption and approval of this Agreement by CKF Bancorp’s stockholders, at a meeting of the stockholders of CKF Bancorp or in an action by the written consent in lieu of such a stockholder meeting, this Section 5.1(a) shall not prohibit CKF Bancorp from furnishing nonpublic information regarding CKF Bancorp and its Subsidiaries to, or entering into discussions with, any person in response to an Acquisition Proposal that is submitted to CKF Bancorp by such person (and not withdrawn) if (1) the Acquisition Proposal constitutes or could reasonably result in a Superior Proposal, (2) CKF Bancorp has not violated any of the restrictions set forth in this Section 5.1, (3) CKF Bancorp’s Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with and based upon the advice of its outside legal counsel, that such action is required in order for the Board of Directors to comply with its fiduciary obligations to CKF Bancorp’s stockholders under applicable law, and (4) at least two (2) Business Days prior to furnishing any nonpublic information to, or entering into discussions with, such person, CKF Bancorp gives Kentucky First written notice of the identity of such person and of CKF Bancorp’s intention to furnish nonpublic information to, or enter into discussions with, such person and CKF Bancorp receives from such person an executed confidentiality agreement on terms no more favorable to such person than the confidentiality agreement between Kentucky First and CKF Bancorp. In addition, nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit CKF Bancorp and any of its representatives from (i) informing any person of the existence of the provisions of this Section 5.1, (ii) contacting any person solely to clarify the terms and conditions of an Acquisition Proposal, or (iii) disclosing any information to its stockholders that the CKF Bancorp Board of Directors determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that it is required to disclose in order to not breach its fiduciary duties to CKF Bancorp’s shareholders under applicable law, subject to compliance with the requirements of this Section 5.1.

(b) CKF Bancorp will notify Kentucky First immediately orally (within one calendar day) and in writing (within three calendar days) of receipt of any Acquisition Proposal, any request for non-public information that could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, or any inquiry with respect to or that could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, including, in each case, the identity of the person making such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry and the terms and conditions thereof, and shall provide to Kentucky First any written materials received by CKF Bancorp or any of its Subsidiaries in connection therewith. CKF Bancorp will keep Kentucky First informed of any developments with respect to any such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry promptly upon the occurrence thereof.

(c) CKF Bancorp will immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any parties conducted prior to the date of this Agreement with respect to any of the foregoing. CKF Bancorp will take the necessary steps to inform the appropriate individuals or entities referred to in the first sentence of Section 5.1(a) of the obligations undertaken in this Section 5.1. CKF Bancorp will promptly request each person (other than Kentucky First) that has executed a confidentiality agreement in the 12 months prior to the date hereof in connection with its consideration of a business combination with CKF Bancorp or Central Kentucky Federal to return or destroy all confidential information previously furnished to such person by or on behalf of CKF Bancorp or Central Kentucky Federal. CKF Bancorp shall not release any third party from, or waive any provisions of, any confidentiality agreements or standstill agreement to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is a party.

5.2 Advice of Changes. Prior to the Closing, each party shall promptly advise the other party orally and in writing to the extent that it has knowledge of (i) any representation or warranty made by it contained in this Agreement becoming untrue or inaccurate in any material respect or (ii) the failure by it to comply in any material respect with or satisfy in any material respect any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under this Agreement; provided, however, that no such notification shall affect the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the parties or the conditions to the obligations of the parties under this Agreement.

5.3 Access and Information.

(a) Upon reasonable notice, CKF Bancorp shall (and shall cause its Subsidiaries to) afford Kentucky First and its representatives (including, without limitation, directors, officers and employees of Kentucky First and its affiliates and counsel, accountants and other professionals retained by Kentucky First) such reasonable access during normal business hours throughout the period prior to the Effective Time to the books, records (including, without limitation, tax returns and work papers of independent auditors), contracts, properties, personnel and to such other information relating to CKF Bancorp and CKF Bancorp’s Subsidiaries as Kentucky First may reasonably request; provided, however, that no investigation pursuant to this Section 5.3 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made by CKF Bancorp in this Agreement and, provided further, that CKF Bancorp need not furnish, and need not cause its Subsidiaries to furnish, access to books, records, contracts, properties or information to the extent such books, records, contracts, properties or information disclose (i) matters involving this Agreement, (ii) information or material that CKF Bancorp or Central Kentucky Federal is required or obligated to maintain as confidential under applicable laws or regulations or policies or procedures of CKF Bancorp or Central Kentucky Federal, or (iii) pending or threatened litigation or investigations if, in the opinion of counsel to CKF Bancorp, the granting of such access would or might adversely affect the confidential nature of or any privilege relating to the matters being discussed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither CKF Bancorp nor its Subsidiaries shall be required to provide access to or to disclose information where such access or disclosure would violate the rights of such entity’s customers, jeopardize the attorney-client privilege of the entity in possession or control of such information, or contravene any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, decree or binding agreement entered into prior to the date of this Agreement. The parties hereto will make appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements under circumstances in which the restrictions of the previous sentence apply.

(b) From the date hereof until the Effective Time, CKF Bancorp shall, and shall cause CKF Bancorp’s Subsidiaries to, promptly provide Kentucky First with (i) a copy of each report filed with federal or state banking regulators, (ii) a copy of each periodic report to its senior management and all materials relating to its business or operations furnished to its Board of Directors, (iii) a copy of each press release made available to the public and (iv) all other information concerning its business, properties and personnel as Kentucky First may reasonably request, provided, however, that CKF Bancorp need not provide, and need not cause its Subsidiaries to provide, copies of any portion of a document disclosing (i) matters involving this Agreement, (ii) information or material that CKF Bancorp or Central Kentucky Federal is required or obligated to maintain as confidential under applicable laws or regulations or policies or procedures of CKF Bancorp or Central Kentucky Federal, or (iii) pending or threatened litigation or investigations if, in the opinion of counsel to CKF Bancorp, such provision would or might adversely affect the confidential nature of or any privilege relating to the matters being discussed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither CKF Bancorp nor its Subsidiaries shall be required to provide access to or to disclose information where such access or disclosure would violate the rights of such entity’s customers, jeopardize the attorney-client privilege of the entity in possession or control of such information, or contravene any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, decree or binding agreement entered into prior to the date of this Agreement. The parties hereto will make appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements under circumstances in which the restrictions of the previous sentence apply.

(c) Kentucky First will not, and will cause its representatives not to, use any information obtained pursuant to this Section 5.3 for any purpose unrelated to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(d) From and after the date hereof, representatives of Kentucky First and CKF Bancorp shall meet on a regular basis to discuss and plan for the conversion of CKF Bancorp’s and its Subsidiaries’ data processing and related electronic informational systems to those used by Kentucky First and its Subsidiaries with the goal of conducting such conversion simultaneously with the consummation of the Bank Merger.

(e) CKF Bancorp and Central Kentucky Federal shall give notice to a designee of Kentucky First, and shall invite such person to attend all regular and special meetings of the Boards of Directors of CKF Bancorp and Central Kentucky Federal and all regular and special meetings of any senior management committee (including but not limited to the executive committee and the loan and discount committee of Central Kentucky Federal) of CKF Bancorp or Central Kentucky Federal. Such designees shall have no right to vote and shall not attend sessions of board and committees during which there is being discussed (i) matters involving this Agreement, (ii) information or material that CKF Bancorp or Central Kentucky Federal is required or obligated to maintain as confidential under applicable laws or regulations or policies or procedures of CKF Bancorp or Central Kentucky Federal, or (iii) pending or threatened litigation or investigations if, in the opinion of counsel to CKF Bancorp, the presence of such designees would or might adversely affect the confidential nature of or any privilege relating to the matters being discussed.

5.4 Applications; Consents.

(a) The parties hereto shall cooperate with each other and shall use their reasonable best efforts to prepare and file as soon as practicable after the date hereof all necessary applications, notices and filings to obtain all permits, consents, approvals and authorizations of all Governmental Entities that are necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. CKF Bancorp and Kentucky First shall furnish each other with all information concerning themselves, their respective subsidiaries, and their and their respective subsidiaries’ directors, officers and stockholders and such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with any application, notice or filing made by or on behalf of Kentucky First, CKF Bancorp or any of their respective subsidiaries to any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Plan of Bank Merger. Kentucky First and CKF Bancorp shall have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable each will consult with the other on, all the information relating to Kentucky First and CKF Bancorp, as the case may be, and any of their respective subsidiaries, that appears in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any Governmental Entity pursuant to this Section 5.4(a).

(b) As soon as practicable after the date hereof, each of the parties hereto shall, and they shall cause their respective subsidiaries to, use its best efforts to obtain any consent, authorization or approval of any third party that is required to be obtained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Plan of Bank Merger.

5.6 Additional Agreements. Subject to the terms and conditions herein provided, each of the parties hereto agrees to use all reasonable efforts to take promptly, or cause to be taken promptly, all actions and to do promptly, or cause to be done promptly, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable laws and regulations to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as expeditiously as possible, including using efforts to obtain all necessary actions or non-actions, extensions, waivers, consents and approvals from all applicable Governmental Entities, effecting all necessary registrations, applications and filings (including, without limitation, filings under any applicable state securities laws) and obtaining any required contractual consents and regulatory approvals.

5.8 Stockholder Meeting.

(a) CKF Bancorp will submit to its stockholders this Agreement and any other matters required to be approved or adopted by stockholders in order to carry out the intentions of this Agreement. In furtherance of that obligation, CKF Bancorp will take, in accordance with applicable law and its certificate of incorporation and bylaws, all action necessary to call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its stockholders (the “Stockholder Meeting”) as promptly as practicable following effectiveness of the the Registration Statement (defined below) for the purpose of considering and voting on approval and adoption of this Agreement and the transactions provided for in this Agreement. CKF Bancorp agrees that its obligations pursuant to this Section 5.8(a) shall not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to CKF Bancorp of any Acquisition Proposal or by any Change of Recommendation (as defined below). Subject to Section 5.8(b), CKF Bancorp shall, (i) through CKF Bancorp’s Board of Directors, recommend to its stockholders approval and adoption of this Agreement, (ii) include such recommendation in the Proxy Statement-Prospectus and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from its stockholders a vote approving and adopting this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at any time prior to the Effective Time, CKF Bancorp’s Board of Directors may, if it concludes in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal advisors) that the failure to do so would cause it to violate its fiduciary duties under applicable law, withdraw, modify or change its recommendation that the stockholders of CKF Bancorp approve this Agreement (a “Change of Recommendation”); provided that prior to any such Change of Recommendation, CKF Bancorp shall have complied in all material respects with Section 5.1, given Kentucky First prompt written notice advising it of the decision of CKF Bancorp’s Board of Directors to take such action and, in the event the decision relates to an Acquisition Proposal, given Kentucky First the material terms and conditions of the Acquisition Proposal, including the identity of the person making any such Superior Proposal or inquiry and the material terms of such Acquisition Proposal or inquiry; and provided, further, that in the event the decision relates to an Acquisition Proposal: (i) CKF Bancorp shall have given Kentucky First three (3) Business Days after delivery of such notice to propose revisions to the terms of this Agreement (or make another proposal) and if Kentucky First proposes to revise the terms of this Agreement, CKF Bancorp shall have negotiated, and shall have caused its financial and legal advisors to negotiate, in good faith with Kentucky First with respect to such proposed revisions or other proposal; and (ii) CKF Bancorp’s Board of Directors shall have determined in good faith, after considering the results of such negotiations and giving effect to any proposals, amendments or modifications made or agreed to by Kentucky First, if any, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal. In the event CKF Bancorp’s Board of Directors does not make the determination referred to in clause (ii) of this paragraph and thereafter determines to withdraw, modify or change its recommendation that the stockholders of CKF Bancorp approve this Agreement pursuant to this Section 5.8(b), the procedures referred to above shall apply anew and shall also apply to any subsequent withdrawal, amendment or change. In the event of any material revisions to the Acquisition Proposal, CKF Bancorp shall be required to deliver a new written notice to Kentucky First and to again comply with the requirements of this Section 5.8(b) with respect to such new written notice, except that the three (3) Business Day period referred to above shall be reduced to two (2) Business Days. Unless this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 7.1, or unless a Change of Recommendation is made prior to the 31st day following the date of this Agreement, this Agreement shall be submitted to the stockholders of CKF Bancorp at the Stockholder Meeting for the purpose of voting on the approval and adoption of this Agreement and nothing contained herein shall be deemed to relieve CKF Bancorp of such obligation; provided, however, that if CKF Bancorp’s Board of Directors shall have effected a Change of Recommendation, then CKF Bancorp’s Board of Directors may submit this Agreement to CKF Bancorp’s stockholders without recommendation (although the resolutions adopting this Agreement as of the date hereof may not be rescinded), in which event CKF Bancorp’s Board of Directors may communicate the basis for its lack of a recommendation to CKF Bancorp’s stockholders in the Proxy Statement-Prospectus or an appropriate amendment or supplement thereto to the extent required by applicable law. In addition to the foregoing, CKF Bancorp shall not submit to the vote of its stockholders any Acquisition Proposal other than the Merger.

5.9 Registration of Kentucky First Common Stock.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable following the date hereof, Kentucky First shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-4 with respect to the issuance of Kentucky First Common Stock in the Merger (such Form S-4, and any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Registration Statement”). The Registration Statement shall contain proxy materials relating to the matters to be submitted to the CKF Bancorp stockholders at the Stockholders Meeting, which shall also constitute the prospectus relating to the shares of Kentucky First Common Stock to be issued in the Merger (such proxy statement/prospectus, and any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Proxy Statement-Prospectus”). CKF Bancorp will furnish to Kentucky First the information required to be included in the Registration Statement with respect to its business and affairs and shall have the right to review and consult with Kentucky First and approve the form of, and any characterizations of such information included in, the Registration Statement prior to its being filed with the SEC. Kentucky First shall use reasonable best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC and to keep the Registration Statement effective as long as is necessary to consummate the Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby. CKF Bancorp will use reasonable best efforts to cause the Proxy Statement-Prospectus to be mailed to CKF Bancorp’s stockholders as promptly as practicable after the Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act. Kentucky First will advise CKF Bancorp, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the time when the Registration Statement has become effective, the issuance of any stop order, the suspension of the qualification of the Kentucky First Common Stock issuable in connection with the Merger for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or any request by the SEC for amendment of the Proxy Statement-Prospectus or the Registration Statement. If at any time prior to the Effective Time any information relating to Kentucky First or CKF Bancorp, or any of their respective affiliates, officers or directors, should be discovered by Kentucky First or CKF Bancorp which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to any of the Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement-Prospectus so that any of such documents would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party which discovers such information shall promptly notify the other party hereto and, to the extent required by law, rules or regulations, an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed by Kentucky First with the SEC and disseminated by CKF Bancorp to the stockholders of CKF Bancorp.

(b) Kentucky First shall also take any action required to be taken under any applicable state securities laws in connection with the Merger and each of CKF Bancorp and Kentucky First shall furnish all information concerning it and the holders of CKF Bancorp Common Stock as may be reasonably requested in connection with any such action.

(c) Prior to the Effective Time, Kentucky First shall notify The Nasdaq Global Market of the additional shares of Kentucky First Common Stock to be issued by Kentucky First in exchange for the shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock.

5.10 Notification of Certain Matters. Each party shall give prompt notice to the other of: (i) any event or notice of, or other communication relating to, a default or event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become a default, received by it or any of its Subsidiaries subsequent to the date of this Agreement and prior to the Effective Time, under any contract material to the financial condition, properties, businesses or results of operations of each party and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole to which each party or any Subsidiary is a party or is subject; and (ii) any event, condition, change or occurrence which individually or in the aggregate has, or which, so far as reasonably can be foreseen at the time of its occurrence, is reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Each of CKF Bancorp and Kentucky First shall give prompt notice to the other party of any notice or other communication from any third party alleging that the consent of such third party is or may be required in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

5.11 Employee Benefit Matters.

(a) Kentucky First intends to offer employment beginning as of the Effective Time to all employees of CKF Bancorp and Central Kentucky Federal. All persons who are employees of CKF Bancorp and Central Kentucky Federal immediately prior to the Effective Time and whose employment is not specifically terminated at or prior to the Effective Time (a “Continuing Employee”) shall, at the Effective Time, become employees of Kentucky First and/or First Federal of Frankfort. Except as set forth in Section 5.11(d), below, Kentucky First and First Federal of Frankfort shall employ Continuing Employees at salary rates identical to those in effect at CKF Bancorp and Central Kentucky immediately prior to the Effective Time. Except for any Continuing Employee who enters into an employment agreement with Kentucky First and First Federal of Frankfort, all of the Continuing Employees shall be employed at the will of Kentucky First and First Federal of Frankfort, and no contractual right to employment shall inure to such employees because of this Agreement.

(b) General Rule: No Change in Insurance Coverage Expected for 2012. Following the Effective Time, Kentucky First will use its reasonable best efforts not to make any change during calendar year 2012 in any medical, dental, vision, disability, life insurance or any other “welfare plan” as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA that a Continuing Employee was covered by immediately prior to the Effective Time. Beginning in calendar year 2013 and until such time as First Federal of Frankfort and First Federal of Hazard merge with and into each other (a “Subsequent Bank Merger”), Kentucky First will use its reasonable best efforts to cause Continuing Employees to receive benefits under First Federal of Frankfort medical plans and other welfare plans substantially similar to those provided to such persons under existing CKF Bancorp and Central Kentucky Federal medical plans and other welfare plans. Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents will receive credit under Central Kentucky’s medical plans and other welfare plans for any expenses incurred by such Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents during the portion of the calendar year prior to the Effective Time for purposes of satisfying applicable deductible, co-insurance, maximum out-of-pocket and similar expenses.

(c) Credit for Prior Service. To the extent applicable, service with CKF Bancorp or Central Kentucky Federal shall be deemed to be service with Kentucky First and First Federal of Frankfort for eligibility and vesting purposes only, but not for purposes of benefit accruals.

For calendar year 2012, except as required by applicable law, there shall be no change to the Central Kentucky Federal 401(k) Plan, and Continuing Employees will continue to participate in the 401(k) Plan under the same terms and conditions that were in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, unless such changes are required by applicable law. Beginning with calendar year 2013, the Central Kentucky Federal 401(k) Plan may be merged, terminated or frozen, at the discretion of Kentucky First.

(f) First Federal of Hazard ESOP. Upon the event of a Subsequent Bank Merger, Continuing Employees shall become eligible to participate in the First Federal of Hazard ESOP in accordance with the terms of such ESOP. In that case, it is understood that Continuing Employees shall receive prior service credit with CKF Bancorp, Central Kentucky Federal and/or First Federal of Frankfort for purposes of eligibility and vesting only, but not for purposes of benefit accruals with respect to the First Federal of Hazard ESOP.

(g) Central Kentucky Federal Employee Stock Ownership Plan. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Central Kentucky Federal shall, in cooperation with Kentucky First, terminate the Central Kentucky ESOP immediately prior to the Effective Time and subject to the occurrence of the Effective Time. All shares of CKF Bancorp Common Stock held by the Central Kentucky ESOP shall be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as elected by the participants of the Central Kentucky ESOP, all accounts shall be fully vested and all assets in the Central Kentucky ESOP shall be distributed to Central Kentucky ESOP participants after the receipt of a favorable determination letter from the IRS. Prior to the Effective Time, Central Kentucky shall take all such actions as are necessary, determined in consultation with Kentucky First, in order to submit the application for a favorable determination letter in advance of the Effective Time, and following the Effective Time, Kentucky First shall use its best efforts in good faith to obtain such favorable determination letter as promptly as possible.

(h) Directors Plan. Immediately on or prior to the Effective Time, Central Kentucky shall, in cooperation with Kentucky First, terminate the Central Kentucky Federal Savings Bank Retirement Plan for Non-Employee Directors, and the amounts due thereunder shall be paid in a lump sum to the participants therein on the Effective Time, in accordance with the terms of the plan and Section 409A of the Code.

Mr. Brooks and the Chief Financial Officer of Kentucky First will meet prior to the Effective Time to define the specific duties and responsibilities to be given to Mr. Brooks following the Effective Time.

5.12 Indemnification.

(a) From and after the Effective Time through the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, Kentucky First agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director and officer of CKF Bancorp or any of its Subsidiaries and each officer or employee of CKF Bancorp and or any of its Subsidiaries that is serving or has served as a director or officer of another entity expressly at the request or direction of CKF Bancorp or any of its Subsidiaries (each, an “Indemnified Party”), against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, as they are from time to time incurred, in each case to the fullest extent such person would have been indemnified or have the right to advancement of expenses pursuant to CKF Bancorp’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws as in effect on the date of this Agreement and to the fullest extent permitted by law.

(b) Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under Section 5.12(a), upon learning of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, shall promptly notify Kentucky First thereof, but the failure to so notify shall not relieve Kentucky First of any liability it may have hereunder to such Indemnified Party if such failure does not materially and substantially prejudice Kentucky First.

(c) Kentucky First shall use its reasonable best efforts to maintain CKF Bancorp’s and its Subsidiaries’ existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy (or provide a policy providing comparable coverage and amounts on terms no less favorable to the persons currently covered by CKF Bancorp’s existing policy, including Kentucky First’s existing policy if it meets the foregoing standard) covering persons who are currently covered by such insurance for a period of three years after the Effective Time; provided, however, that in no event shall Kentucky First be obligated to expend, in order to maintain or provide insurance coverage pursuant to this Section 5.12(c), an amount per annum in excess of 100% of the amount of the annual premiums paid by CKF Bancorp as of the date hereof for such insurance (“Maximum Insurance Amount”); provided further, that if the amount of the annual premiums necessary to maintain or procure such insurance coverage exceeds the Maximum Insurance Amount, Kentucky First shall obtain the most advantageous coverage obtainable for an annual premium equal to the Maximum Insurance Amount.

(d) In the event Kentucky First or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other person or entity and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person or entity, then, and in each such case, to the extent necessary, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Kentucky First assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.12.

(e) The provisions of this Section 5.12 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party and his or her representatives.

5.13 Board of Directors

(a) Subject to the receipt of a waiver from the OCC permitting First Federal of Frankfort’s Board of Directors to amend First Federal of Frankfort’s Bylaws to increase the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors to 17, which waiver Kentucky First and its Subsidiaries shall use their best efforts to obtain, First Federal of Frankfort shall take all action necessary to appoint all of the members of the Boards of Directors of CKF Bancorp and Central Kentucky Federal who were serving in that capacity immediately prior to the Effective Time to First Federal of Frankfort’s Board of Directors, effective immediately following the Effective Time (“Continuing Directors”). Three such individuals will be appointed to terms expiring at the 2012 annual meeting of stockholders, two such individuals will be appointed to terms expiring at the 2013 annual meeting of stockholders, and two such individuals will be appointed to terms expiring at the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders. Upon the expiration of such initial terms, subject to any required regulatory approvals and the exercise of their fiduciary duties, the Board of Directors of First Federal of Frankfort shall renominate such individuals for election for one additional three-year term. Thereafter, such individuals shall be subject to the same nomination and election procedures as the other directors on First Federal of Frankfort’s Board of Directors. Such Continuing Directors who are not officers of First Federal of Frankfort shall receive a fee of $900 per month for each month during which he or she serves as a director. In the event the waiver described in the first sentence of this Section 5.13(a) cannot be obtained, one current director from each of First Federal of Frankfort and Central Kentucky Federal shall be named as an advisory director of First Federal of Frankfort and shall receive a fee of $900 per month for each month during which he or she serves as an advisory director, and all other provisions of this Section 5.13(a) shall be effected, except that only two Continuing Directors will be appointed to terms expiring at the 2012 annual meeting of stockholders.

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, the Board of Directors of Kentucky First shall appoint W. Banks Hudson as a director of Kentucky First to serve in the class of directors with terms expiring at the 2013 annual meeting of stockholders shall appoint William H. Johnson as a director of Kentucky First to serve in the class of directors with terms expiring at the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders, conditional upon obtaining any necessary regulatory approvals. Upon the expiration of such initial terms, subject to any required regulatory approvals and the exercise of their fiduciary duties, the Board of Directors of Kentucky First shall renominate such individuals for election for one additional three-year term. Thereafter, Messrs. Banks and Johnson shall be subject to the same nomination and election procedures as the other directors on Kentucky First’s Board of Directors.

5.14 Operations of Central Kentucky Federal after the Bank Merger. Immediately following the consummation of the Bank Merger, Kentucky First will operate the former offices of Central Kentucky Federal as branch offices of First Federal of Frankfort. If requested by CKF Bancorp and subject to any required regulatory approvals, First Federal of Frankfort shall operate such former Central Kentucky Federal branch offices under the name “Central Kentucky Federal Savings Bank.”

5.15 Environmental Reports. CKF Bancorp shall cooperate with an environmental consulting firm designated by Kentucky First that is reasonably acceptable to CKF Bancorp (the “Environmental Consultant”) in connection with the conduct by the Environmental Consultant of a Phase I and/or II Environmental Site Assessment or other environmental investigation on all real property owned or leased by CKF Bancorp or Central Kentucky Federal as of the date of this Agreement (the “CKF Bancorp Property”). If Kentucky First reasonably determines that further investigatory procedures are required as to any CKF Bancorp Property on the basis of the review of the report of the initial investigation with respect to such CKF Bancorp Property prepared by the Environmental Consultant, and should Kentucky First order the Environmental Consultant to perform such further investigatory procedures, CKF Bancorp shall cooperate with such further investigatory procedures. Kentucky First shall furnish true and complete copies of any reports of the Environmental Consultant that it receives with respect to any CKF Bancorp Property. CKF Bancorp shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, without the written consent of Kentucky First, knowingly take any action or execute any instruments that would affect the status of any of its properties under environmental laws or its rights or duties under such laws.

5.16 Reserves and Merger-Related Costs. Prior to the Effective Time, each of CKF Bancorp and its Subsidiaries shall, consistent with GAAP and applicable U.S. banking laws and regulations, modify or change its loan, accrual, reserve, tax, litigation and real estate valuation policies and practices (including loan classifications and levels of reserves) so as to be applied on a basis that is consistent with that of Kentucky First, provided, however, that no such modifications or changes need be made prior to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 6.1(a) and (b); provided further, that in any event, no accrual or reserve made by CKF Bancorp or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Section 5.16 shall constitute or be deemed to be a breach, violation of or failure to satisfy any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement, condition or other provision of this Agreement or otherwise be considered in determining whether any such breach, violation or failure to satisfy shall have occurred. The recording of any such adjustments shall not be deemed to imply any misstatement of previously furnished financial statements or information and shall not be construed as concurrence of CKF Bancorp or its management with any such adjustments.

Termination

7.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated, and the Merger abandoned, at any time prior to the Effective Time, by action taken or authorized by the Board of Directors of the terminating party, either before or after any requisite stockholder approval:

(a) by the mutual written consent of Kentucky First and the CKF Parties; or

(b) by either Kentucky First or the CKF Parties, in the event of the failure of CKF Bancorp’s stockholders to approve the Agreement at the Stockholder Meeting; provided, however, that CKF Bancorp shall only be entitled to terminate the Agreement pursuant to this clause if it has complied in all material respects with its obligations under Section 5.8; or

(c) by either Kentucky First or the CKF Parties, if either (i) any approval, consent or waiver of a Governmental Entity required to permit consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall have been denied or (ii) any Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction shall have issued a final, unappealable order enjoining or otherwise prohibiting consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or

(d) by either Kentucky First or the CKF Parties, in the event that the Merger is not consummated by September 30, 2012, unless the failure to so consummate by such time is due to the failure of the party seeking to terminate this Agreement to perform or observe the covenants and agreements of such party set forth herein; or

(e) by either Kentucky First or the CKF Parties (provided that the party seeking termination is not then in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained herein), in the event of a breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of the other party set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of the other party shall have become untrue, in either case such that the conditions set forth in Sections 6.2(a) and (b) or Sections 6.3(a) and (b), as the case may be, would not be satisfied and such breach or untrue representation or warranty has not been or cannot be cured within thirty (30) days following written notice to the party committing such breach or making such untrue representations or warranty; or

(f) by Kentucky First, (i) if CKF Bancorp shall have materially breached its obligations under Section 5.1 or Section 5.8 or (ii) if the CKF Bancorp’s Board of Directors does not publicly recommend in the Proxy Statement-Prospectus that stockholders approve and adopt this Agreement or if, after recommending in the Proxy Statement-Prospectus that stockholders approve and adopt this Agreement, the Board of Directors of CKF Bancorp effects a Change of Recommendation; or

(g) by Kentucky First, if, on the basis of one or more Phase II Environmental Site Assessment Reports of the Environmental Consultant, Kentucky First reasonably determines that (A) the aggregate costs of taking all remedial and corrective actions and measures (1) required by applicable law, or (2) recommended by such report(s), in the aggregate (including the aggregate costs of the taking of further investigative procedures and the obtaining of the Phase II Environmental Site Assessment Report(s)), would exceed the sum of $300,000, or (B) that the sum of such costs identified in clause (A) cannot be reasonably estimated with any degree of certainty but could reasonably be expected to exceed the sum of $500,000 in the aggregate; provided, however, that Kentucky First may not exercise this termination right after February 3, 2012; or

(h) by the CKF Parties if CKF Bancorp has received a Superior Proposal and CKF Bancorp’s Board of Directors has made a determination to accept such Superior Proposal, after determining in good faith (based on advice of its outside legal counsel) that failing to terminate this Agreement would constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties under applicable law, provided that (i) the CKF Bancorp Parties have not materially breached their obligations under Section 5.1; (ii) promptly following such termination of this Agreement, CKF Bancorp shall enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal and pay to Kentucky First the Fee set forth in Section 7.2(a); and (iii) (a) at least five business days prior to such termination, CKF Bancorp shall provide written notice to Kentucky First advising it that CKF Bancorp’s Board of Directors is prepared, subject to the additional requirements of this Section 7.1(h), to cause CKF Bancorp to accept a Superior Proposal, specifying the terms and conditions thereof and identifying the person making such proposal (it being understood and agreed that any amendment or modification of an Acquisition Proposal shall result in a new Acquisition Proposal for which a new five business day period following a new notice referred to above shall be required) and (b) CKF Bancorp shall, and shall cause its outside legal counsel and financial advisor to, negotiate in good faith with Kentucky First, if requested by Kentucky First, to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement as would enable CKF Bancorp to proceed with the transactions contemplated hereby on such adjusted terms consistent with CKF Bancorp’s Board of Directors’ determination in good faith (based on advice of its outside legal counsel) that proceeding based upon such adjusted terms would not constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties.

7.2 Termination Fee.

(a) The CKF Parties shall pay to Kentucky First a fee of (i) $300,000 if the Agreement is terminated on or before December 3, 2011, or (ii) $600,000 if the Agreement is terminated after December 3, 2011 (the “Fee”), if this Agreement is terminated as follows:

(i) if this Agreement is terminated by Kentucky First pursuant to Section 7.1(f), then the CKF Parties shall pay the Fee on the second business day following such termination;

(ii) if this Agreement is terminated by (A) Kentucky First or CKF Bancorp pursuant to Section 7.1(b) or (B) by Kentucky First pursuant to Section 7.1(e) because of CKF Bancorp’s willful breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement under this Agreement, and in any such case an Acquisition Proposal with respect to CKF Bancorp shall have been publicly announced or otherwise communicated or made known to CKF Bancorp’s Board of Directors (or any person shall have publicly announced, communicated or made known an intention to make an Acquisition Proposal) at any time after the date of this Agreement and on or prior to the date of the Stockholders Meeting, in the case of clause (A), or the date of termination, in the case of clause (B), then the CKF Parties shall pay (x) one third of the Fee to Kentucky First on the second business day following such termination and (y) if within 12 months after such termination CKF Bancorp enters into a definitive agreement with respect to, or consummates, an Acquisition Proposal, then the CKF Parties shall pay the remainder of the Fee on the date of such execution or consummation; and

(iii) if this Agreement is terminated by the CKF Parties pursuant to Section 7.1(h) herein, then the CKF Parties shall pay the Fee concurrently with such termination.

(b) Any amount that becomes payable pursuant to Section 7.2(a) shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Kentucky First in writing to the CKF Parties.

(c) CKF Bancorp acknowledges that the agreement contained in Section 7.2(a) is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, that without such agreement by CKF Bancorp, Kentucky First would not have entered into this Agreement and that such amounts do not constitute a penalty. If CKF Bancorp fails to pay the amounts due under Section 7.2(a) with the time periods specified, CKF Bancorp shall pay the costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by Kentucky First in connection with any action, including the filing of any lawsuit, taken to collect payment of such amounts, together with interest on the amount of any such unpaid amounts at the prime lending rate prevailing during such period as published in The Wall Street Journal, calculated on a daily basis from the date such amounts were required to be paid until the date of actual payment.

7.3 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement by either Kentucky First or CKF Bancorp as provided in Section 7.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and, subject to Section 7.2, have no effect, and there shall be no liability on the part of any party hereto or their respective officers and directors, except that (i) Sections 5.3(c), 7.2, 8.6 and 8.8, shall survive any termination of this Agreement, and (ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no party shall be relieved or released from any liabilities or damages arising out of its willful breach of any provision of this Agreement.
