THE MERGER OF NORTHWEST BANK AND LORAIN NATIONAL BANK AN EXCITING OPPORTUNITY FOR BOTH COMPANIES 15

 Keys to Success 16 A Focus on Our Employees and Customers Create an environment where Lorain National Bank employees are eager to join the Northwest team and contribute to our combined success Ensure a transition for LNB’s customers that is as seamless as possible

Why Lorain National Bank? 17 Similar history, philosophies, culture and products and service mix LNB founded in 1905 – Northwest in 1894 Both institutions are true community banks Both have relatively simple and straightforward products and services Both focused on quality customer service Solid management team making great progress Good branches – good loan and deposit mixes Specialized indirect auto lending and SBA lending business lines would be new niches for Northwest and something we see as scalable Closer to our corporate offices than many of our existing regions

Why Ohio? 18 Ohio is a natural extension of our market The bonds between eastern Ohio and western Pennsylvania will continue to strengthen with the ongoing development of the shale gas industry. Similarities in Midwest culture, values and work ethic Market similarities to Northwest’s best performing markets LNB’s presence in Lorain County, Ohio much like Northwest’s in Erie County, Pennsylvania (Number 2 in market share) Strong community presence and support Small towns in Ohio – small towns in Pennsylvania

Northwest Regions 19 Northwest PA $1.80 billion Ohio $1.14 billion Southwest PA $1.03 billion Erie PA $800 million New York $617 million Central PA $599 million Eastern PA $485 million Maryland $270 million The addition of Lorain National Bank will make Northwest’s Ohio Region the bank’s second largest region. (by deposit size)

TogetherA Formidable Presence in Ohio and Pennsylvania 20 LNBB Branches NWBI Branches

Our Vision for the Ohio Market LNB’s management team, led by Dan Klimas, will become Northwest’s management team for the Ohio Region and the foundation for future growth in this market. Regional headquarters will remain in Lorain. Northwest’s Ohio management team will have decision making authority supported by Northwest’s administrative and operations staff in Warren, PA. Northwest will continue LNB’s tradition of community support and involvement in the Ohio market. 21

What Should You Expect? Northwest has a longstanding tradition for compassion in its dealings with employees. Northwest currently has only a limited presence in Ohio and does not have a regional management team. Your institution will become the foundation for our future in Ohio. There will not be a significant loss of jobs compared to most mergers of this size and nature. Some displacement will occur. Opportunities in other areas may be available Career counseling will be provided Displaced employees will receive two weeks of pay for each year of service, with a maximum of 26 weeks and a minimum of four weeks. Medical insurance will continue to be provided for the same length of time. 22
