Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) The phantom stock units resulted from the termination of a deferred compensation plan (the "prior plan") associated with Renasant Bank, formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary of Renasant Bancshares, Inc., which was merged with and into The Peoples Bank & Trust Company, now also known as Renasant Bank. These funds were transferred into the Company's DSU Plan as determined by the fair market value of the participant's interest in the prior plan as of November 11, 2005, divided by the fair market value of a share of the Company's common stock as of such date. The units are settled 100% in the Company's common stock upon the reporting person's retirement or upon approved hardship reasons. The conversion or exercise price is one phantom stock unit for one share of the Company's common stock.
(2) Equal installments of 33 1/3 of the option shares granted will become exercisable on the completion of one, two, and three years of service measured from the grant date, respectively. The options will expire ten years from the grant date.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space provided is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.

Potential persons who are to respond to the collection of information contained in this form are not required to respond unless the form displays a currently valid OMB number.
