ITEM 1.02 
TERMINATION OF A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT
 
On July 18, 2012, Farmers Capital Bank Corporation (“Company”) completed the repurchase of the warrant it issued to the U.S. Department of the Treasury (“Treasury”) in January 2009 as part of the Troubled Asset Relief Program’s Capital Purchase Program (“CPP”). The warrant allowed for the purchase of 223,992 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $20.09 per share. The Company repurchased the warrant at a mutually agreed upon price of $75,000. The repurchase of the warrant had no impact on the Company’s results of operations, although cash and shareholders’ equity declined by the amount of the purchase price.
 
On June 11, 2012, the Treasury announced that it would conduct an auction of its preferred stock investment held in seven banks, including the Company, as part of its ongoing efforts to wind down and recover its remaining CPP investments. The Treasury was successful in selling all of its investment in the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock to private investors. Upon settlement of the warrant repurchase, the Treasury has no remaining equity stake in the Company.
