LSBX Lsb Corp (MM)

LSB Corporation (NASDAQ: LSBX) (the "Company"), the parent company of River Bank (the "Bank"), today announced that the Board of Directors has approved the adoption of a Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan will be administered through its stock transfer agent Computershare Trust Company, N.A. and the Company anticipates that a mailing will be sent to shareholders communicating the details of the Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan in June 2009. Information regarding the Plan, including a copy of the Plan prospectus, will also be available on the Company's website at www.riverbk.com.

A dividend reinvestment and stock purchase plan is an investment option offered directly to existing shareholders from the issuing company, in this instance, LSB Corporation. At the shareholder's option, dividends are not paid directly in cash, but instead are directly reinvested in Company common stock. The Plan will also allow for a shareholder to make additional, optional stock purchases of Company common stock with a minimum purchase amount of $25 up to a maximum limit of $10,000 per month. The specific terms and conditions, including applicable fees, associated with the Plan will be provided with the mailing in June.
