     (b) On January 6, 2011, Pinnacle Financial Partners, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from Clay T. Jackson notifying the Company that Mr. Jackson was resigning, effective immediately, from the Company’s board of directors. Mr. Jackson’s term as a director of the Company and its bank subsidiary, Pinnacle National Bank, ended on January 6, 2011.

Mr. Major’s term as a director of the Company and Pinnacle National Bank will end at the completion of the Annual Meeting.
