Incentive Compensation Plan Incentive Compensation Plan
On January 30, 2024, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted, with shareholder approval, the First Commonwealth Financial Corporation 2024 Plan. This plan allows for shares of common stock to be issued to employees, directors, and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries as an incentive to aid in the financial success of the Company. The shares can be issued as options, stock appreciation rights, performance share or unit awards, dividend or dividend equivalent rights, stock awards, restricted stock awards, or other annual incentive awards. Up to 5,000,000 shares of stock can be awarded under this plan, of which 4,314,537 shares were still available for awards as of December 31, 2025.
