                               FIRST AMENDMENT
                                      TO
                         AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER


         THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this "First
Amendment") is made and entered into as of August 8, 1997, by and among F.N.B.
CORPORATION ("FNB"), a Pennsylvania corporation, SOUTHWEST BANKS, INC.
("Southwest"), a Florida corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of FNB, INDIAN
ROCKS STATE BANK ("IRSB"), a Florida state banking corporation and to be joined
in by SOUTHWEST INTERIM BANK, N.A. ("Interim"), a national bank to be chartered
under the laws of the United States and to become a wholly owned subsidiary of
FNB.


                                   PREAMBLE

         The parties hereto entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the
"Merger Agreement") dated as of May 10, 1997 whereby FNB, Southwest and IRSB
agreed to the merger of IRSB with and into Interim. The parties now desire to
amend the Merger Agreement on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above and the mutual covenants
and agreements set forth herein, the parties agree as follows:

         1.       Conversion of Shares. Section 3.1(d) of the Merger Agreement
is hereby amended by deleting Section 3.1(d) in its entirety and by insertion,
in lieu thereof, of the following:

                           "(d) If the Designated Price of FNB Common Stock
                  shall be less than $22.00, then the Exchange Ratio shall be
                  increased to equal the quotient, rounded to the third decimal
                  point, obtained by dividing (i) the product of $22.00 and the
                  Exchange Ratio by (ii) the Designated Price. If the Designated
                  Price shall be less than $20.00, then FNB may, at any time
                  during the period commencing on the Determination Date and
                  ending at the close of business on the day before Closing,
                  terminate the Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(k) hereof. If
                  the Designated Price of FNB Common Stock shall be equal to or
                  greater than $27.00, then the Exchange Ratio shall decrease to
                  equal the quotient, rounded to the third decimal point,
                  obtained by dividing (x) the product of $27.00 and the
                  Exchange Ratio by (y) the Designated Price; provided, however,
                  that in no event shall the Exchange Ratio be less than 1.8
                  shares of FNB Common Stock for each share of IRSB Common
                  Stock; and provided, further, however, that if a Change in
                  Control of FNB has occurred, then the Exchange Ratio shall not
                  decrease and shall be fixed at two (2) shares of FNB Common
                  Stock for each share of IRSB Common Stock as provided in
                  Section 3.1(c) of this Agreement."

         2.       Termination.  Section 10.1 of the Merger Agreement is amended 
by deleting subparagraph (g) thereof in its entirety.

         3.       Defined Terms.  All terms which are capitalized herein, but 
which are not defined herein, shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the 
Merger Agreement.

         4. Inconsistent Provisions. All provisions of the Merger Agreement
which have not been amended by this First Amendment shall remain in full force
and effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, to the extent that
there is any inconsistency between the provisions of the Merger Agreement and
the provisions of this First Amendment, the provisions of this First Amendment
shall control and be binding.
