Dear Valued Depositor:

 

I am pleased to tell you about an investment opportunity and, just as importantly, to request your vote. Pursuant to a plan of conversion and reorganization (the “Plan”), our organization will convert from the mutual holding company to the stock holding company form of organization. To accomplish the conversion, PB Bancorp, Inc., newly formed to own Putnam Bank, is offering shares of its common stock. Enclosed you will find a Prospectus, a Proxy Statement and a Questions and Answers Brochure describing the proxy vote, the offering and the Plan.

 

THE PROXY VOTE:

 

Your vote is extremely important for us to meet our goals. The Plan is subject to approval by Putnam Bank’s depositors. NOT VOTING YOUR ENCLOSED PROXY CARD(S) WILL HAVE THE SAME EFFECT AS VOTING “AGAINST” THE PLAN. Note that you may receive more than one Proxy Card, depending on the ownership structure of your accounts at Putnam Bank. Please vote all the Proxy Cards you receive — none are duplicates! To cast your vote, please sign and date each Proxy Card and return the card(s) in the Proxy Reply Envelope provided. Alternatively, you may vote by telephone or the Internet by following the simple instructions on the Proxy Card. Our Board of Directors urges you to vote “FOR” the Plan.

 

Please note:

 

The proceeds resulting from the sale of stock will support our business strategy.
There will be no change to account numbers, interest rates or other terms of your accounts at Putnam Bank. Deposit accounts will not be converted to stock. Your deposit accounts will continue to be insured by the FDIC, up to the maximum legal limits.
You will continue to enjoy the same services with the same Board of Directors, management and staff.
Voting does not obligate you to purchase shares of common stock in our offering.

 

THE STOCK OFFERING:

 

As an eligible Putnam Bank depositor, you have non-transferable rights, but no obligation, to purchase shares of common stock during our Subscription Offering before any shares are made available for sale to the general public. The common stock is being offered at $8.00 per share, and there will be no sales commission charged to purchasers during the offering.

 

Please read the enclosed materials carefully. If you are interested in purchasing shares of common stock, complete the enclosed Stock Order Form and return it with full payment. You may submit your Stock Order Form by overnight delivery to the indicated address on the Stock Order Form, by hand-delivery to Putnam Banks main office located at 40 Main Street, Putnam, Connecticut, or by mail using the Stock Order Reply Envelope provided. Stock Order Forms and full payment must be received (not postmarked) before 2:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on December 16, 2015. If you are considering purchasing stock with funds you have in an IRA or other retirement account, please call our Stock Information Center promptly for guidance, because these orders require additional processing time.

(3)any blood or marriage relative of the person, who either has the same home as the person or who is a director or officer of PSB Holdings, Inc. or Putnam Bank.

 

Acting in concert – The term acting in concert means:

(2)a combination or pooling of voting or other interests in the securities of an issuer for a common purpose pursuant to any contract, understanding, relationship, agreement or other arrangement, whether written or otherwise.

 

A person or company that acts in concert with another person or company (other party) will also be deemed to be acting in concert with any person or company who is also acting in concert with that other party, except that any tax-qualified employee stock benefit plan will not be deemed to be acting in concert with its trustee or a person who serves in a similar capacity solely for determining whether common stock held by the trustee and common stock held by the employee stock benefit plan will be aggregated.

 

Our directors are not treated as associates of each other solely because of their membership on the Board of Directors. We have the sole discretion to determine whether prospective purchasers are associates or acting in concert. Persons having the same address and persons exercising subscription rights through qualifying deposits registered at the same address will be deemed to be acting in concert, unless we determine otherwise.

I agree that, after receipt by PB Bancorp, Inc., this Stock Order Form may not be modified or canceled without PB Bancorp, Inc.s consent, and that if withdrawal from a deposit account has been authorized, the authorized amount will not otherwise be available for withdrawal. Under penalty of perjury, I certify that (1) the Social Security or Tax ID information and all other information provided hereon are true, correct and complete, (2) I am purchasing shares solely for my own account and that there is no agreement or understanding regarding the sale or transfer of such shares, or my right to subscribe for shares, and (3) I am not subject to backup withholding tax [cross out (3) if you have been notified by the IRS that you are subject to backup withholding]. I acknowledge that my order does not conflict with the overall purchase limitation of 62,500 shares in all categories of the offering combined, for any person or entity, together with any associate or group of persons acting in concert, as set forth in the plan of conversion and the Prospectus dated _____________, 2015.

 

Subscription rights pertain to those eligible to subscribe in the Subscription Offering. Subscription rights are only exercisable by completing and submitting a Stock Order Form, with full payment for the shares subscribed for. Federal regulations prohibit any person from transferring or entering into any agreement directly or indirectly to transfer the legal or beneficial ownership of subscription rights, or the underlying securities, to the account of another.

 

I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ARE NOT DEPOSITS OR SAVINGS ACCOUNTS AND ARE NOT INSURED OR GUARANTEED BY THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION OR ANY OTHER GOVERNMENT AGENCY.

 

I further certify that, before purchasing the shares of the common stock of PB Bancorp, Inc., I received the Prospectus dated ____________, 2015, and I have read the terms and conditions described in the Prospectus, including disclosure concerning the nature of the security being offered and the risks involved in the investment, described by PB Bancorp, Inc. in the Risk Factors section, beginning on page __. Risks include, but are not limited to the following:

 

1.A worsening of economic conditions in our market area could reduce demand for our products and services and/or result in increases in our level of non-performing loans, which could adversely affect our operations, financial condition and earnings.
2.Strong competition within our market area may limit our growth and profitability.
3.Because we intend to increase our commercial real estate and commercial loan originations, our lending risk will increase and downturns in the real estate market or local economy could adversely affect our earnings.
4.Our business strategy includes growth, and our financial condition and results of operations could be negatively affected if we fail to grow or fail to manage our growth effectively.
5.Future changes in interest rates may reduce our profits.
6.A continuation of the historically low interest rate environment may adversely affect our net interest income and profitability.
7.We could record future losses on our investment securities portfolio.
8.A significant percentage of our assets is invested in securities, which typically have a lower yield than our loan portfolio.
9.Our emphasis on one- to four-family residential mortgage loans exposes us to increased credit risks.
10.Continued declines in our loan portfolio may negatively impact our earnings and results of operations.
11.Our cost of operations is high relative to our revenues.
12.Building market share by expanding of our commercial real estate and commercial business lending capacity could cause our expenses to increase faster than revenues.
13.If our allowance for loan losses is not sufficient to cover actual loan losses, our earnings could decrease.
14.Declines in property values can increase the loan-to-value ratios on our residential mortgage loan portfolio, which could expose us to greater risk of loss.
15.Changes in laws and regulations and the cost of regulatory compliance with new laws and regulations may adversely affect our operations and/or increase our costs of operations.
16.We have become subject to more stringent capital requirements, which may adversely impact our return on equity, require us to raise additional capital, or limit our ability to pay dividends or repurchase shares.
17.Non-compliance with the USA PATRIOT Act, Bank Secrecy Act, or other laws and regulations could result in fines or sanctions.
18.Proposed and final regulations could restrict our ability to originate and sell loans.
19.Our success depends on hiring and retaining certain key personnel.
20.We face significant operational risks because the nature of the financial services business involves a high volume of transactions.
21.Cyber-attacks or other security breaches could adversely affect our operations, net income or reputation.
22.Risks associated with system failures, interruptions, or breaches of security could negatively affect our earnings.
23.Legal and regulatory proceedings and related matters could adversely affect us or the financial services industry in general.
24.Managing reputational risk is important to attracting and maintaining customers, investors and employees.
25.Changes in managements estimates and assumptions may have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and our financial condition or operating results.
26.We are subject to environmental liability risk associated with lending activities.
27.The future price of the shares of common stock may be less than the $8.00 purchase price per share in the offering.
28.Our failure to effectively deploy the net proceeds may have an adverse effect on our financial performance.
29.Our return on equity will be low following the stock offering. This could negatively affect the trading price of our shares of common stock.
30.Our stock-based benefit plans will increase our expenses and reduce our income.
31.The implementation of stock-based benefit plans may dilute your ownership interest. Historically, stockholders have approved these stock-based benefit plans.
32.We have not determined when we will adopt one or more new stock-based benefit plans. Stock-based benefit plans adopted more than 12 months following the completion of the conversion may exceed regulatory restrictions on the size of stock-based benefit plans adopted within 12 months, which would further increase our costs.
33.Various factors may make takeover attempts more difficult to achieve.
34.You may not revoke your decision to purchase PB Bancorp common stock in the subscription or community offerings after you send us your order.
35.The distribution of subscription rights could have adverse income tax consequences.

 

By executing this form, the investor is not waiving any rights under federal or state securities laws, including the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Questions and Answers

About Our Plan of Conversion

and Stock Offering

 

 

 

 

 

This pamphlet answers questions about our plan of conversion and stock offering. Investing in shares of common stock involves certain risks. Before making an investment decision, please read the enclosed Prospectus carefully, including the ‘‘Risk Factors’’ section.

 

GENERAL — THE CONVERSION

 

Our Board of Directors has determined that the plan of conversion and reorganization is in the best interests of our organization, our customers and the communities we serve.

 

Q.What is the conversion and offering?

 

A.Under our plan of conversion and reorganization (the “Plan”), our organization is converting from the partially public mutual holding company form of ownership to the fully public stock holding company form of ownership. At June 30, 2015, Putnam Bancorp, MHC owned 57.0% of the common stock of PSB Holdings, Inc. (“PSB Holdings”). The remaining 43.0% of the common stock was owned by the public and by The Putnam Bank Foundation. As a result of the conversion, our newly formed corporation, PB Bancorp, Inc. (“PB Bancorp”) will own Putnam Bank. Shares of common stock of PB Bancorp representing the ownership interest of Putnam Bancorp, MHC in PSB Holdings, as adjusted for the assets of Putnam Bancorp, MHC, are currently being offered for sale.

 

At the completion of the conversion, public stockholders of PSB Holdings will exchange their shares of common stock for newly issued shares of common stock of PB Bancorp, maintaining their approximate percentage ownership in our organization immediately prior to the conversion, as adjusted for the assets of Putnam Bancorp, MHC.

 

At the completion of the conversion, 100% of the common stock of PB Bancorp will be owned by public stockholders (including the charitable foundation). Putnam Bancorp, MHC’s shares of PSB Holdings will be cancelled, and PSB Holdings and Putnam Bancorp, MHC will cease to exist.

 

Q.What are the reasons for the conversion and offering?

 

A.Our primary reasons for converting to the fully public stock form of ownership and undertaking the stock offering are to: (i) enhance our regulatory capital position; (ii) eliminate the uncertainties associated with the mutual holding company structure under financial reform legislation; (iii) transition us to a more familiar and flexible organizational structure; (iv) improve the liquidity of our shares of common stock; and (v) facilitate future mergers and acquisitions.

 

Q.Is Putnam Bank considered “well-capitalized” for regulatory purposes?

 

A.Yes. As of June 30, 2015, Putnam Bank was considered “well-capitalized” for regulatory purposes.

 

Q.Will customers notice any change in Putnam Bank’s day-to-day activities as a result of the conversion and offering?

 

A.No. It will be business as usual. The conversion is an internal change in our corporate structure. There will be no change to our Board of Directors, management, and staff as a result of the conversion. Putnam Bank will continue to operate as an independent bank.

 

Q.Will the conversion and offering affect customers’ deposit accounts or loans?

 

A.No. The conversion and offering will not affect the balance or terms of deposits or loans, and deposits will continue to

be insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to the maximum legal limits. Deposit accounts will not be converted to stock.

 

THE PROXY VOTE

 

Although we have received conditional regulatory approval, the Plan is also subject to approval by stockholders, corporators and voting depositors.

 

Q.Why should I vote “For” the Plan?

 

A.Your vote “For” the Plan is extremely important to us. Each voting depositor of Putnam Bank received a Proxy Card attached to a Stock Order Form. These depositor packages also include a Proxy Statement describing the Plan. The Plan cannot be implemented without stockholder, corporator and depositor approval.

 

Our Board of Directors believes that converting to a fully public ownership structure will best support our future growth.

 

Voting does not obligate you to purchase shares of common stock during the offering.

 

Q.What happens if I don’t vote?

 

A.Your vote is very important. Proxy Cards not voted will have the same effect as voting “Against” the Plan.

 

Without sufficient favorable votes, we cannot complete the conversion and the related stock offering.

 

Q.How do I vote?

 

A.Mark your vote, sign and date each Proxy Card enclosed and return the card(s) in the enclosed Proxy Reply Envelope. Alternatively, you may vote by Internet or telephone, by following the simple instructions on the Proxy Card. PLEASE VOTE PROMPTLY. NOT VOTING HAS THE SAME EFFECT AS VOTING “AGAINST” THE PLAN. Telephone and Internet voting are available 24 hours a day.

 

Q.How many votes are available to me?

 

A.Depositors at the close of business on November 3, 2015 are entitled to one vote for each $100 or fraction thereof on deposit. However, no depositor may cast more than 1,000 votes. Proxy Cards are not imprinted with your number of votes; however, votes will be automatically tallied by computer.

 

Q.Why did I receive more than one Proxy Card?

 

A.If you had more than one deposit account on November 3, 2015, you may have received more than one Proxy Card, depending on the ownership structure of your account. There are no duplicate cards — please promptly vote all the Proxy Cards sent to you.

 

Q.More than one name appears on my Proxy Card. Who must sign?

 

A.The names reflect the title of your deposit account. Proxy Cards for joint accounts require the signature of only one of the account holders. Proxy Cards for trust or custodian accounts must be signed by the trustee or the custodian, not the listed beneficiary.

 

 

 

 

THE STOCK OFFERING AND PURCHASING SHARES

 

Q.How many shares are being offered and at what price?

 

A.PB Bancorp is offering for sale between 2,921,875 and 3,953,125 shares of common stock (subject to increase to 4,546,094 shares) at $8.00 per share. No sales commission will be charged to purchasers.

 

Q.Who is eligible to purchase stock during the stock offering?

 

A.Pursuant to our Plan, non-transferable rights to subscribe for shares of PB Bancorp common stock in the Subscription Offering have been granted in the following descending order of priority:

 

Priority #1 — Depositors of Putnam Bank with aggregate balances of at least $50 at the close of business on July 1, 2014;

 

Priority #2 — Our tax-qualified employee benefit plans;

 

Priority #3 — Depositors of Putnam Bank with aggregate balances of at least $50 at the close of business on September 30, 2015; and

 

Priority #4 — Depositors of Putnam Bank at the close of business on November 3, 2015.

 

Shares not sold in the Subscription Offering may be offered for sale to the public in a Community Offering, with a preference given first to natural persons including trusts of natural persons residing in New London and Windham Counties, Connecticut and then to PSB Holdings public stockholders as of November 3, 2015. Remaining shares may be offered to members of the general public.

 

Shares not sold in the Subscription and Community Offerings may be offered for sale to the general public through a Syndicated Offering.

 

Q.I am eligible to subscribe for shares of common stock in the Subscription Offering but am not interested in investing. May I allow someone else to use my Stock Order Form to take advantage of my priority as an eligible account holder?

 

A.No. Subscription rights are non-transferable! Only those eligible to subscribe in the Subscription Offering, as listed above, may purchase shares in the Subscription Offering. To preserve subscription rights, the shares may only be registered in the name(s) of eligible account holder(s). On occasion, unscrupulous people attempt to persuade account holders to transfer subscription rights, or to purchase shares in the offering based on an understanding that the shares will be subsequently transferred to others. Participation in such schemes is against the law and may subject involved parties to prosecution. If you become aware of any such activities, please notify our Stock Information Center promptly so that we can take the necessary steps to protect our eligible account holders’ subscription rights in the offering.

 

Q.How may I buy shares during the Subscription and Community Offerings?

 

A.Shares can be purchased by completing a Stock Order Form and returning it, with full payment, so that it is received (not postmarked) before the offering deadline. You may submit your Stock Order Form by overnight delivery to the indicated address on the Stock Order Form, by hand-

delivery to Putnam Banks main office Street, Putnam, Connecticut, or by mail using the Stock Order Reply Envelope provided. Please do not mail Stock Order Forms to Putnam Banks offices.

 

Q.What is the deadline for purchasing shares?

 

A.To purchase shares in the Subscription and Community Offerings, you must deliver a properly completed, signed Stock Order Form, with full payment, so that it is received (not postmarked) before 2:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on December 16, 2015. Acceptable methods for delivery of Stock Order Forms are described above.

 

Q.How may I pay for the shares?

 

A.Payment for shares can be remitted in two ways:

 

(1)By personal check, bank check or money order, made payable to PB Bancorp, Inc. These will be deposited upon receipt. We cannot accept wires or third party checks. Putnam Bank line of credit checks may not be remitted for this purchase. Please do not mail cash!

 

(2)By authorized deposit account withdrawal of funds from your Putnam Bank deposit account(s). The Stock Order Form section entitled “Method of Payment — Deposit Account Withdrawal” allows you to list the account number(s) and amount(s) to be withdrawn. Funds designated for direct withdrawal must be in the account(s) at the time the Stock Order Form is received. You may not authorize direct withdrawal from accounts with check-writing privileges. Please submit a check instead. If you request direct withdrawal from such accounts, we reserve the right to interpret that as your authorization to treat those funds as if we had received a check for the designated amount, and we will immediately withdraw the amount from your checking account(s). Also, IRA or other retirement accounts held at Putnam Bank may not be listed for direct withdrawal. See information on retirement accounts below.

 

Q.Will I earn interest on my funds?

 

A.Yes. If you pay by personal check, bank check or money order, you will earn interest at a rate of 0.05% per annum from the date we process your payment until the completion of the conversion and offering. At that time, you will be issued a check for interest earned on funds. If you pay for shares by authorizing a direct withdrawal from your Putnam Bank deposit account(s), your funds will continue earning interest within the account, at the account’s contractual rate. The interest will remain in your account(s) when the designated withdrawal is made, upon completion of the conversion and offering.

 

Q.Are there limits to how many shares I can order?

 

A.Yes. The minimum order is 25 shares ($200). The maximum number of shares that may be purchased by a person or entity is 37,500 shares ($300,000). Additionally, no person or entity, together with associates or persons acting in concert with such person or entity, may purchase more than 62,500 shares ($500,000) in all categories of the offerings combined.

 

More detail on purchase limits, including the definition of “associate” and “acting in concert,” can be found in the Prospectus section entitled ‘‘The Conversion and Offering — Additional Limitations on Common Stock Purchases.’’

 

 

 

 

Q.May I use my Putnam Bank individual retirement account (“IRA”) to purchase shares?

 

A.You may use funds currently held in retirement accounts with Putnam Bank. However, before you place your stock order, the funds you wish to use must be transferred to a self-directed retirement account maintained by an independent trustee or custodian, such as a brokerage firm. If you are interested in using IRA or any other retirement funds held at Putnam Bank or elsewhere, please call our Stock Information Center as soon as possible for guidance, but preferably at least two weeks before the December 16, 2015 offering deadline. Your ability to use such funds for this purchase may depend on time constraints, because this type of purchase requires additional processing time, and may be subject to limitations imposed by the institution where the funds are held.

 

Q.May I use a loan from Putnam Bank to pay for shares?
