This proxy statement is first being mailed to shareholders on or about October 10, 2014.

Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the Shareholder Meeting to Be Held on November 12, 2014. This proxy statement and our 2014 Annual Report are available at www.proxyvote.com and on our website at www.hfbla.com under “Investor Relations.”

What is the purpose of the annual meeting?

At our annual meeting, shareholders will act upon the election of directors, approval of the Home Federal Bancorp, Inc. of Louisiana 2014 Stock Incentive Plan and ratification of our independent registered public accounting firm. In addition, management will report on the performance of Home Federal Bancorp and respond to questions from shareholders.

What are the Board of Directors’ recommendations?

The recommendations of the Board of Directors are set forth under the description of each proposal in this proxy statement. In summary, the Board of Directors recommends that you vote FOR the nominees for director described herein, FOR approval of the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan and FOR ratification of our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2015.

The proxy solicited hereby, if properly signed and returned to us and not revoked prior to its use, will be voted in accordance with your instructions. If no contrary instructions are given, each proxy signed and received will be voted in the manner recommended by the Board of Directors and, upon the transaction of such other business as may properly come before the meeting, in accordance with the best judgment of the persons appointed as proxies. Proxies solicited hereby may be exercised only at the annual meeting and any adjournment of the annual meeting and will not be used for any other meeting.

Who is entitled to vote?

Only our shareholders of record as of the close of business on the record date for the meeting, September 17, 2014, are entitled to vote at the meeting. On the record date, we had 2,203,442 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and no other class of equity securities outstanding. For each issued and outstanding share of common stock you own on the record date, you will be entitled to one vote on each matter to be voted on at the meeting, in person or by proxy.

How do I vote my shares?

After you have carefully read this proxy statement, indicate on your proxy card how you want your shares to be voted, then sign, date and mail your proxy card in the enclosed prepaid return envelope as soon as possible. You may also vote by telephone or the Internet if indicated on your proxy card or voting instruction form. This will enable your shares to be represented and voted at the annual meeting.

Voting instructions from participants in the Home Federal Bank Employees’ Savings and Profit Sharing Plan and Employee Stock Ownership Plan must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on November 5, 2014, to be used by the plan Trustees to determine the votes for plan shares.

Can I attend the meeting and vote my shares in person?

Yes. All shareholders are invited to attend the annual meeting. Shareholders of record can vote in person at the annual meeting. If your shares are held in “street name,” then you are not the shareholder of record and you must ask your broker or other nominee how you can vote at the annual meeting.

Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy after I return my proxy card?

Yes. If you are a shareholder of record, there are three ways you can change your vote or revoke your proxy after you have sent in your proxy card.

•

First, you may complete and submit a new proxy card or vote by telephone or the Internet before the deadline printed on the card. Any earlier proxies will be revoked automatically.

•

Second, you may send a written notice to our Corporate Secretary, Ms. DeNell W. Mitchell, Home Federal Bancorp, Inc. of Louisiana, 624 Market Street, Shreveport, Louisiana 71101, in advance of the meeting stating that you would like to revoke your proxy.

•

Third, you may attend the annual meeting and vote in person. Any earlier proxy will be revoked. However, attending the annual meeting without voting in person will not revoke your proxy.

If your shares are held in “street name” and you have instructed a broker or other nominee to vote your shares, you must follow directions from your broker or other nominee to change your vote.

If my shares are held in “street name” by my broker, could my broker automatically vote my shares?

Your broker may not vote on the election of directors or the approval of the Home Federal Bancorp, Inc. of Louisiana 2014 Stock Incentive Plan if you do not furnish instructions for proposals one or two. You should use the voting instruction form provided by the institution that holds your shares to instruct your broker to vote your shares or else your shares may not be voted or may be considered “broker non-votes.”

Your broker may vote in his or her discretion on the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm if you do not furnish instructions. If your broker votes in his or her discretion on proposal three and you do not provide instructions on the other proposals, then your shares will be considered “broker non-votes” on proposals one and two.

What constitutes a quorum?

The presence at the meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock entitled to vote at the annual meeting will constitute a quorum. Proxies received but marked as abstentions will be included in the calculation of the number of shareholders considered to be present at the meeting.

What vote is required to approve each item?

The election of directors will be determined by a plurality of the votes cast at the annual meeting. The three nominees for director receiving the most “for” votes will be elected. The affirmative vote of a majority of the total votes cast is required for approval of the Home Federal Bancorp, Inc. of Louisiana 2014 Stock Incentive Plan and for approval of the proposal to ratify the appointment of LaPorte, A Professional Accounting Corporation for the year ending June 30, 2015. Abstentions are considered in determining the presence of a quorum, but will not affect the vote on the proposals.

INFORMATION WITH RESPECT TO NOMINEES FOR DIRECTOR, CONTINUING

DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

Election of Directors (Proposal One)

Our Articles of Incorporation provide that the Board of Directors shall be divided into three classes as nearly equal in number as possible. The directors are elected by our shareholders for staggered three year terms and until their successors are elected and qualified.

At this annual meeting, you will be asked to elect one class of directors, consisting of three directors, for a three-year term expiring in 2017 and until their successors are elected and qualified. Shareholders of Home Federal Bancorp are not permitted to use cumulative voting for the election of directors. Our Board of Directors, upon recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, nominated Messrs. David A. Herndon III, Woodus K. Humphrey and Mark M. Harrison to a three-year term expiring in 2017. No director or nominee for director is related to any other director or executive officer by blood, marriage or adoption, except Daniel Herndon and David Herndon III who are brothers.

Unless otherwise directed, each proxy signed and returned by a shareholder will be voted for the election of the nominees for director listed below. If any person named as a nominee should be unable or unwilling to stand for election at the time of the annual meeting, the proxies will nominate and vote for any replacement nominee or nominees recommended by our Board of Directors. At this time, the Board of Directors knows of no reason why any of the nominees listed below may not be able to serve as a director if elected.

The following tables present information concerning the nominees for director and our continuing directors. The indicated period of service as a director is presented on a calendar year basis and includes service for directors of Home Federal Bank prior to the organization of our initial holding company in 2005.

Director Nominations

Nominations for director of Home Federal Bancorp are made by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers candidates for director suggested by other directors, as well as our management and shareholders. A shareholder who desires to recommend a prospective nominee for the Board should notify our Secretary in writing with whatever supporting material the shareholder considers appropriate. In addition, any shareholder wishing to make a nomination must follow our procedures for shareholder nominations, which are described under “Shareholder Proposals, Nominations and Communications with the Board of Directors.”

The charter of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee sets forth certain criteria the committee may consider when recommending individuals for nomination as director including: (a) ensuring that the Board of Directors, as a whole, is diverse and consists of individuals with various and relevant career experience, relevant technical skills, industry knowledge and experience, financial expertise (including expertise that could qualify a director as a “financial expert,” as that term is defined by the rules of the SEC), local or community ties and (b) minimum individual qualifications, including strength of character, mature judgment, familiarity with our business and industry, independence of thought and an ability to work collegially. The committee also may consider the extent to which the candidate would fill a present need on the Board of Directors.

Director Independence

A majority of Home Federal Bancorp’s directors are independent directors as defined in the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market. The Board of Directors has determined that Drs. Colquitt and Trawick and Messrs. Harrison, Humphrey, Lawrence and Wilhite are independent directors.

Board Leadership Structure

Our Board of Directors is led by a Chairman selected by the Board from time to time. Presently, Mr. Daniel Herndon, our Chief Executive Officer also serves as Chairman of the Board. Mr. Barlow serves as our President and Chief Operating Officer and is a member of the Board and serves as co-principal executive officer with Mr. Herndon. The Board has determined that selecting our Chief Executive Officer as Chairman is in our best interests because it promotes unity of vision for the leadership of Home Federal Bancorp and avoids potential conflicts among directors. In addition, as Chief Executive Officer Mr. Herndon is familiar with our business and operations and is well situated to lead discussions on important matters affecting the business of Home Federal Bancorp. By combining the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman positions there is a firm link between management and the Board which promotes the development and implementation of our corporate strategy.

The Board of Directors is aware of the potential conflicts that may arise when an insider chairs the Board, but believes these are limited by existing safeguards which include the fact that as a financial institution holding company, much of our operations are highly regulated.

** Chairman

Audit Committee. The Audit Committee reviews with management and the independent registered public accounting firm the systems of internal control, reviews the annual financial statements, including the Annual Report on Form 10-K and monitors Home Federal Bancorp’s adherence in accounting and financial reporting to generally accepted accounting principles. The Audit Committee is comprised of three directors who are independent directors as defined in the Nasdaq listing standards and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Board of Directors has determined that no members of the Audit Committee meet the qualifications established for an Audit Committee financial expert in the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission; however, the members have the requisite financial and accounting background to meet the Nasdaq listing standards. The Audit Committee met three times in fiscal 2014 and informally reviews our financial results on a quarterly basis.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. It is the responsibility of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee in accordance with its charter to, among other functions, review the qualifications of director nominees. The Committee approves nominees for consideration by the full Board of Directors to fill vacancies on the Board or for election at the annual meeting. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee met once during fiscal 2014.

Compensation Committee. It is the responsibility of the Compensation Committee of Home Federal Bancorp to set the compensation of Home Federal Bancorp’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as well as the other members of senior management. The Compensation Committee of Home Federal Bancorp met two times in fiscal 2014.

Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

Risk is inherent with every business, particularly financial institutions. We face a number of risks, including credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, operational risk, strategic risk and reputational risk. Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of the risks Home Federal Bancorp faces, while the Board, as a whole and through its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of risk management. In its risk oversight role, the Board of Directors ensures that the risk management processes designed and implemented by management are adequate and functioning as designed.

Members of senior management regularly attend meetings of the Board of Directors and address any questions or concerns raised by the Board on risk management or other matters. The Board’s risk oversight function is carried out through, among other factors, its review and approval of various policies and procedures, such as Home Federal Bank’s lending and investment policies, ratification or approval of investments and loans exceeding certain thresholds, and regular review of risk elements such as interest rate risk exposure, liquidity and problem assets.

Directors’ Attendance at Annual Meetings

Directors are expected to attend the annual meeting absent a valid reason for not doing so. All of our directors attended the annual meeting of shareholders held on November 13, 2013.

Employment Agreements

Home Federal Bank has entered into an amended and restated employment agreement with Mr. James R. Barlow and an amended and restated employment and transition agreement with Mr. Daniel R. Herndon, in each case effective as of January 1, 2013. The employment agreements amend and restate prior employment agreements between Home Federal Bank and each executive. Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Herndon serves as Executive Chairman of the Board of Home Federal Bank for a fixed term of five years commencing on the effective date and ending on December 31, 2017, at which point Mr. Herndon will retire as Executive Chairman of the Board but will continue to serve as a director and receive board fees for his continued service thereafter. Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Barlow serves as President and Chief Executive Officer of Home Federal Bank for an initial term of three years commencing on the effective date, provided that the term of Mr. Barlow’s agreement will be extended for an additional year on each January 1 during the term of the agreement, unless Home Federal Bank or Mr. Barlow gives notice to the other party of its or his intent not to extend the term of the agreement. The agreements provided for initial base salaries of $148,101 and $193,950 per year for Messrs. Herndon and Barlow, respectively, provided that Mr. Herndon’s base salary shall be reduced to $100,000 per year commencing on January 1, 2016, and shall remain unchanged for the last two years of his employment period. Mr. Barlow’s base salary may be increased at the discretion of the Board of Directors of Home Federal Bank but may not be decreased during the term of the agreements without the prior written consent of the executive. Home Federal Bank also agreed to provide each of Messrs. Herndon and Barlow with an automobile during the term of the agreements.

The employment agreements with Messrs. Herndon and Barlow are terminable with or without cause by Home Federal Bank. The employment agreements provide that in the event of (y) termination of employment by Home Federal Bank other than for cause, disability, retirement or death, or (z) termination by the executive for "good reason," as defined, in each case before or after a change in control, the executive would be entitled to (1) an amount of cash severance which is equal to three times his average annual compensation and (2) continued participation in certain employee benefit plans of Home Federal Bank until the earlier of 36 months or the date the executive receives substantially similar benefits from full-time employment with another employer. The employment agreement with Home Federal Bank provides that in the event any of the payments to be made thereunder or otherwise upon termination of employment are deemed to constitute "parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, then such payments and benefits received thereunder shall be reduced by the minimum amount necessary to result in no portion of the payments and benefits being non-deductible by Home Federal Bank for federal income tax purposes.

Home Federal Bancorp entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Barlow to serve as President and Chief Operating Officer of Home Federal Bancorp, effective as of January 1, 2013, which is on terms substantially similar to the amended and restated employment agreement with Home Federal, except as follows. The agreement with Home Federal Bancorp provides that severance payments payable to Mr. Barlow by Home Federal Bancorp shall include the amount by which the severance benefits payable by Home Federal are reduced as a result of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, if the parachute payments exceed 105% of three times the executive's "base amount" as defined in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code. If the parachute payments are not more than 105% of the amount equal to three times the base amount, the severance benefits payable by Home Federal Bancorp will be reduced so they do not constitute "parachute payments" under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, the agreement with Home Federal Bancorp provides that Home Federal Bancorp shall reimburse Mr. Barlow for any resulting excise taxes payable by him, plus such additional amount as may be necessary to compensate him for the payment of state and federal income, excise and other employment-related taxes on the excise tax reimbursement. Under the agreements with Home Federal Bancorp and Home Federal Bank, Mr. Barlow's compensation, benefits and expenses will be paid by Home Federal Bancorp and Home Federal Bank in the same proportion as the time and services actually expended by Mr. Barlow on behalf of each of Home Federal Bancorp and Home Federal Bank.

Home Federal Bancorp has also entered into an amended and restated employment and transition agreement with Mr. Herndon, effective January 1, 2013, to serve as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Home Federal Bancorp for a term of three years, after which he will serve as Executive Chairman of the Board for a period of two years commencing January 1, 2016. Otherwise, the agreement with Home Federal Bancorp is on terms substantially similar to Mr. Herndon’s agreement with Home Federal Bank, except as follows. The agreement provides that severance payments payable to Mr. Herndon by Home Federal Bancorp shall include

the amount by which the severance benefits payable by Home Federal Bank are reduced as a result of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, if the parachute payments exceed 105% of three times the executive's “base amount” as defined in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code. If the parachute payments are not more than 105% of the amount equal to three times the base amount, the severance benefits payable by Home Federal Bancorp will be reduced so they do not constitute “parachute payments” under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, the agreement provides that Home Federal Bancorp shall reimburse Mr. Herndon for any resulting excise taxes payable by him, plus such additional amount as may be necessary to compensate him for the payment of state and federal income, excise and other employment-related taxes on the excise tax reimbursement. Under the agreements with Home Federal Bancorp and Home Federal Bank, Mr. Herndon’s compensation, benefits and expenses will be paid by Home Federal Bancorp and Home Federal Bank in the same proportion as the time and services actually expended by the executive on behalf of each of Home Federal Bancorp and Home Federal Bank.

Pursuant to an employment offer letter accepted by Mr. Glen W. Brown, our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, on April 9, 2014, Mr. Brown’s base salary is $150,000 and 2014 incentive bonus will be $15,000. Mr. Brown will participate in Home Federal Bank’s 401(k) Plan and Employee Stock Ownership Plan when he meets the eligibility requirements and other group benefit plans maintained by Home Federal Bank. Home Federal Bancorp entered into a change in control agreement with Mr. Brown described below under “Change in Control Agreement.” Pursuant to the offer letter, on July 31, 2014, we granted 10,500 incentive stock options to Mr. Brown. The stock options are exercisable 20% per year commencing on the first anniversary of the date of grant and the exercise price of the options will equal the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. We also awarded 3,500 shares of common stock under the recognition and retention plan. The stock awards vest at a rate of 20% per year commencing on the first anniversary of the date of grant.

The Boards of Directors of Home Federal Bancorp and Home Federal Bank also approved an employment and transition agreement between Home Federal Bancorp, Home Federal Bank and Clyde D. Patterson, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, effective as of January 1, 2013. Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Patterson will serve as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Home Federal Bancorp and Home Federal Bank for a term of up to two years, will thereafter serve on a part-time or consultant basis through December 31, 2017, and will retire as of December 31, 2017. The agreement provides for initial base compensation of $117,362 for the first two years and $60,000 per year commencing on January 1, 2015. In addition to other benefits generally available for employees of Home Federal, Home Federal Bancorp and Home Federal also agreed to provide Mr. Patterson with an automobile during the term of the agreement.

The agreement with Mr. Patterson is terminable with or without cause by Home Federal Bancorp and Home Federal Bank. The agreement provides that in the event of (y) termination of employment by Home Federal Bancorp and Home Federal Bank other than for cause, disability, retirement or death, or (z) termination by Mr. Patterson for “good reason,” as defined, in each case before or after a change in control, Mr. Patterson would be entitled to (1) an amount of cash severance which is equal to two times the sum of his base compensation as of the date of termination if the date of termination is on or before December 31, 2014 and (2) if the date of termination is on or after January 1, 2015, the greater of the remaining base compensation under the agreement or $120,000. The agreement provides that in the event any of the payments to be made thereunder or otherwise upon termination of employment are deemed to constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, then such payments and benefits received thereunder shall be reduced by the minimum amount necessary to result in no portion of the payments and benefits being non-deductible by Home Federal Bancorp or Home Federal Bank for federal income tax purposes.

Change in Control Agreement

On August 13, 2014, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved a change in control agreement with Mr. Brown effective as of August 18, 2014 through July 31, 2015. On or prior to July 31, 2015 and each subsequent July 31st, the Compensation Committee or the Board of Directors will consider whether the term of the agreement will be extended for an additional year.

The change in control agreement provides that during its term and subsequent to a change in control, in the event that Mr. Brown’s employment is terminated (a) by Home Federal Bank other than for cause, disability, retirement or death, or (b) by Mr. Brown for "good reason," as defined, Mr. Brown would be entitled to (1) an

amount of cash severance which is equal to one times his annual rate of base salary compensation and (2) continued participation in certain employee benefit plans of Home Federal Bank until the earlier of 12 months or the date he receives substantially similar benefits from full-time employment with another employer. The change in control agreement provides that in the event any of the payments to be made thereunder or otherwise upon termination of employment are deemed to constitute "parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, then such payments and benefits received thereunder shall be reduced by the minimum amount necessary to result in no portion of the payments and benefits being non-deductible by Home Federal Bank for federal income tax purposes.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Agreements

Home Federal Bank also entered into Supplemental Executive Retirement Agreements for the benefit of Messrs. Herndon and Patterson effective as of January 1, 2013. Under the terms of the agreements, after the target retirement date of December 31, 2017, Messrs. Herndon and Patterson will receive annual retirement benefits of $75,000 and $25,000, respectively, payable in equal annual installments of eight and ten years, respectively. In the event of retirement prior to December 31, 2017, with or without cause, Messrs. Herndon and Patterson would receive their accrued benefits through such date payable in a lump sum. In the event of death while in active service, the designated beneficiaries would receive a lump sum payment of the full retirement benefit. In the event of death after retirement, but before all payments have been made, any remaining benefits will be paid to the designated beneficiaries until all the annual installments have been paid. The retirement benefits are vesting ratably at 20% per year for five years beginning with the calendar year ended December 31, 2013.

Loan Officer Incentive Plan

Home Federal Bank adopted a Loan Officer Incentive Plan as an annual incentive compensation plan to reward participating loan officers with variable cash awards that are contingent upon the net interest income produced from the loan officer’s identified loan portfolio. Mr. Sawrie is our only named executive officer who participates in the plan. Participants in the Loan Officer Incentive Plan are selected by the chief executive officer and president at the beginning of each fiscal year and recommended for approval by the compensation committee of the Board of Directors which administers the plan.

The terms of the Loan Officer Incentive Plan are reviewed annually. For fiscal 2013, participants in the Loan Officer Incentive Plan received a cash reward equal to 4% of the income base from loans originated by the particular loan officer prior to the beginning of the fiscal year. Participants also received a cash reward equal to 6% of the income base from new loans originated by the particular loan officer during the 12-month performance period which coincides with the fiscal year.

Each fiscal year, the cumulative interest income from loans existing at the beginning of the performance period will be calculated. Interest expense, equal to loan volume times our most recent average cost of funds, will be deducted from interest income to arrive at the loan officer’s contribution amount for existing loans. The loan officer’s contribution is then multiplied by a loan portfolio rating (up to 100%) to calculate an income base. The income base for existing loans is then multiplied by 4% to determine the cash incentive award from existing loans.

The cumulative interest income from new loans originated during the performance period is then calculated. Interest expense, equal to loan volume multiplied by our most recent average cost of funds, will be deducted from interest income to arrive at net interest income. Loan initiation fees associated with such newly originated loans shall be added to net interest income to arrive at the loan officer’s contribution amount for newly originated loans. The loan officer’s contribution is then multiplied by a loan portfolio rating (up to 100%) to calculate an income base. The income base for new loans is then multiplied by 6% to determine the cash incentive award from loans originated during the performance period. The incentive awards from existing loans and new loans are added to determine the total award payment. Upon the approval of the compensation committee, cash incentive awards are calculated and paid on a semi-annual basis to participants who are employed and in good standing on the date of such payments.

Retirement Benefits

Retirement benefits are an important element of a competitive compensation program for attracting senior executives, especially in the financial services industry. We froze our defined benefit pension plan in February 2003. Mr. Herndon is our only named executive officer with accrued benefits under the pension plan. Our executive compensation program currently includes (i) a 401(k) profit sharing plan which enables our employees to supplement their retirement savings with elective deferral contributions and with matching and discretionary contributions by us, and (ii) an employee stock ownership plan that allows participants to accumulate retirement benefits in the form of employer stock at no current cost to the participant.

401(k) and Profit Sharing Plan . We adopted the Home Federal Bank Employees’ Savings and Profit Sharing Plan and Trust (“401(k) Plan”) effective November 15, 2004. To participate in the 401(k) Plan, eligible employees must have completed three months of full time service and attained age 21. Participating employees may make elective salary reduction contributions of up to $17,500 of their eligible compensation for 2014. Home Federal Bank will contribute a basic “safe harbor” contribution of 100% of the first 6% of plan salary elective deferrals. We are also permitted to make discretionary contributions to be allocated to participant accounts.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan. We established an employee stock ownership plan for our employees in connection with our mutual to stock conversion in 2005. We acquired additional shares in connection with our second-step conversion in 2010. The shares were purchased by the employee stock ownership plan with funds borrowed from Home Federal Bancorp and are held in a suspense account and released for allocation as debt service payments are made. Additional discretionary contributions may be made to the plan in either cash or shares of common stock, although we have no plans to do so at this time. Shares released from the suspense account are allocated to each eligible participant’s plan account pro rata based on compensation. Forfeitures may be used for the payment of expenses or be reallocated among the remaining participants. Employees who have been credited with at least 1,000 hours of service during a 12-month period and who have attained age 21 are eligible to participate in the employee stock ownership plan. Participants become 100% vested after three years of service. Participants also become fully vested in their account balances upon a change in control (as defined), death, disability or retirement. Benefits may be payable upon retirement or separation from service.

Stock Option Plans and Recognition and Retention Plans

In August 2005, shareholders approved our 2005 Stock Option Plan and our 2005 Recognition and Retention Plan. Pursuant to the terms of the 2005 Stock Option Plan, options to acquire up to 158,868 shares of common stock were available to be granted to employees and directors. Pursuant to the terms of the 2005 Recognition and Retention Plan, awards of up to 63,547 shares of restricted common stock were available to be granted to employees and directors. In December 2011, shareholders approved our 2011 Stock Option Plan and our 2011 Recognition and Retention Plan. No options or plan share awards were granted during fiscal 2014 under the 2011 Stock Option Plan or the 2011 Recognition and Retention Plan. Under all of the stock benefit plans, awards may vest no faster than 20% per year, beginning one year from the date of grant. However, under the plans, vesting of any award is accelerated upon the death or disability of a recipient or upon a change-in-control of Home Federal Bancorp. Outstanding stock awards and stock options for our named executive officers are reflected in the below table “Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End.”

After fiscal year end, on July 31, 2014, the Compensation Committee awarded the remaining available 31,311 stock options and 8,557 stock awards under our 2005 and 2011 plans such that no further awards are available for future grant under the existing plans.

Survivor Benefit Plan

In June 2011, Home Federal Bank purchased bank owned life insurance on the lives of its employees. In consideration for entering into consent to insurance agreements, on July 13, 2011, Home Federal Bank entered into Survivor Benefit Plan Participation Agreements with employees including Messrs. Herndon, Barlow and Sawrie. The agreements provide that the officer’s beneficiary will receive three times the officer’s base salary if serving as an officer of Home Federal Bank at the date of death. The agreements may be amended or terminated at any time by Home Federal Bank as long as it does not reduce or delay any benefit payable to a participant whose death has already occurred.

Related Party Transactions

Home Federal Bank offers extensions of credit to its directors, officers and employees as well as members of their immediate families for the financing of their primary residences and other proposes. These loans are made in the ordinary course of business, on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable loans with persons not related to Home Federal Bank and none of such loans involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features.

Under Home Federal Bancorp’s Audit Committee Charter, the Audit Committee is required to review and approve all related party transactions, as described in Item 404 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

PROPOSAL TO ADOPT THE HOME FEDERAL BANCORP, INC. OF LOUISIANA

2014 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN (PROPOSAL TWO)

Description of the Incentive Plan

The following description of the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan is a summary of its terms and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Incentive Plan, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement as Appendix A .

General. The Board of Directors has adopted the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan which is designed to attract and retain qualified personnel in key positions, provide officers and key employees with a proprietary interest in Home Federal Bancorp as an incentive to contribute to our success and reward key employees for outstanding performance. The Incentive Plan is also designed to attract and retain qualified directors for Home Federal Bancorp. The Incentive Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options intended to comply with the requirements of Section 422 of the Code, non-qualified or compensatory stock options and share awards of restricted stock, which may be based upon performance goals. Share awards and stock options under the Incentive Plan will be available for grant to officers, key employees and directors of Home Federal Bancorp and any subsidiaries.

Administration. The Incentive Plan will be administered and interpreted by a committee of the Board of Directors that is comprised solely of two or more non-employee directors. Such committee currently is comprised of Messrs. Harrison, Humphrey and Wilhite, who also currently serve as the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.

Stock Options. Under the Incentive Plan, the Board of Directors or the committee will determine which officers, key employees and non-employee directors will be granted options, whether such options will be incentive or compensatory options (in the case of options granted to employees), the number of shares subject to each option, the exercise price of each option, whether such options may be exercised by delivering other shares of common stock and when such options become exercisable. The per share exercise price of a stock option shall be at least equal to the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date the option is granted.

All options granted to participants under the Incentive Plan shall become vested and exercisable at the rate, and subject to such limitations, as specified by the Board of Directors or the committee at the time of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no vesting shall occur on or after a participant’s employment or service with Home Federal Bancorp is terminated for any reason other than his death, disability or a change in control. Unless the committee or Board of Directors shall specifically state otherwise at the time an option is granted, all options granted to participants shall become vested and exercisable in full on the date an optionee terminates his employment or service with Home Federal Bancorp or a subsidiary company because of his death or disability. In addition, all stock options will become vested and exercisable in full upon a change in control of Home Federal Bancorp, as defined in the Incentive Plan.

Each stock option or portion thereof shall be exercisable at any time on or after it vests and is exercisable until the earlier of ten years after its date of grant or six months after the date on which the employee’s employment terminated, unless extended by the committee or the Board of Directors to a period not to exceed three years from such termination. Unless stated otherwise at the time an option is granted (i) if an employee terminates his employment with Home Federal Bancorp as a result of disability without having fully exercised his options, the optionee shall have one year following his termination due to disability to exercise such options, and (ii) if an optionee terminates his employment or service with Home Federal Bancorp following a change in control of Home Federal Bancorp without having fully exercised his options, the optionee shall have the right to exercise such options during the remainder of the original ten year term of the option. However, failure to exercise incentive stock options within three months after the date on which the optionee’s employment terminates will result in the option being treated as a compensatory stock option in the event that it is exercised. If an optionee dies while serving as an employee or a non-employee director or terminates employment or service as a result of disability and dies without having fully exercised his options, the optionee’s executors, administrators, legatees or distributees of his estate shall have the right to exercise such options during the one year period following his death, provided no option will be exercisable more than ten years from the date it was granted.

Stock options are non-transferable except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an optionee who holds non-qualified options may transfer such options to his or her spouse, lineal ascendants, lineal descendants, or to a duly established trust for the benefit of one or more of these individuals. Options so transferred may thereafter be transferred only to the optionee who originally received the grant or to an individual or trust to whom the optionee could have initially transferred the option. Options which are so transferred shall be exercisable by the transferee according to the same terms and conditions as applied to the optionee.

Payment for shares purchased upon the exercise of options may be made (i) in cash or by check, (ii) by delivery of a properly executed exercise notice, together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to sell the shares and then to properly deliver to Home Federal Bancorp the amount of sale proceeds to pay the exercise price, all in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, (iii) at the discretion of the board or the committee, by delivering shares of common stock (including shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an option) equal in fair market value to the purchase price of the shares to be acquired pursuant to the option, (iv) at the discretion of the board or the committee, by withholding some of the shares of common stock which are being purchased upon exercise of an option, or (v) any combination of the foregoing. With respect to subclause (iii) hereof, the shares of common stock delivered to pay the purchase price must have either been (x) purchased in open market transactions or (y) issued by Home Federal Bancorp pursuant to a plan thereof, in each case more than six months prior to the exercise date of the option.

Share Awards. Under the Incentive Plan, the Board of Directors or the committee is authorized to grant share awards, which are a right to receive a distribution of shares of common stock. Shares of common stock granted pursuant to a share award will be in the form of restricted stock which shall vest upon such terms and conditions as established by the committee. The board or the committee will determine which officers, and key employees and non-employee directors will be granted share awards, the number of shares subject to each share award, whether the share award is contingent upon achievement of certain performance goals and the performance goals, if any, required to be met in connection with a share award.

If the employment of a share award recipient is terminated before the share award is completely earned, the recipient will forfeit the right to any shares subject to the share award that has not been earned, except as set forth below. All shares subject to a share award held by a recipient whose employment or service with Home Federal Bancorp or a subsidiary company terminates due to death or disability will be deemed fully earned as of the recipient’s last day of employment or service. In addition, all shares subject to a share award held by a recipient will be deemed to be fully earned as of the effective date of a change of control of Home Federal Bancorp.

A recipient of a share award will not be entitled to receive any dividends declared on the common stock and will not be entitled to any voting rights with respect to an unvested share award until it vests. Share awards are not transferable by the recipient and shares subject to a share award may only be earned by and paid to the recipient who was notified in writing of such award by the committee.

The committee may determine to make any share award a performance share award by making such award contingent upon the achievement of a performance goal, or any combination of performance goals. Each performance share award will be evidenced by a written agreement setting forth the performance goals applicable to such award. All determinations regarding the achievement of any performance goal will be made by the committee. Each performance share award will be granted and administered to comply with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Incentive Plan, a recipient of a performance award shall have no rights as a stockholder until the shares of Common Stock covered by the performance share award are issued to the recipient according to the terms thereof.

Number of Shares Covered by the Incentive Plan. A total of 150,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for future issuance pursuant to the Incentive Plan, which is equal to approximately 7.0% of the issued and outstanding common stock on August 13, 2014, the date the Incentive Plan was approved by the Board of Directors. No more than 37,500, or 25%, of the shares reserved under the Incentive Plan may be granted as share awards. In the event of a stock split, reverse stock split, subdivision, stock dividend or any other capital adjustment, the number of shares of common stock under the Incentive Plan, the number of shares to which any share award or stock option relates and the exercise price per share under any option shall be adjusted to reflect such increase or decrease in the total number of shares of common stock outstanding after such capital adjustment.

Amendment and Termination of the Incentive Plan. The Board of Directors may at any time terminate or amend the Incentive Plan with respect to any shares of common stock as to which share awards or stock options have not been granted, subject to any required stockholder approval or any stockholder approval which the board may deem to be advisable. The Board of Directors may not, without the consent of the holder of a share award or stock option, alter or impair any share award or stock option previously granted or awarded under the Incentive Plan except as specifically authorized by the plan.

Unless sooner terminated, the Incentive Plan shall continue in effect for a period of ten years from August 13, 2014, the date that the Incentive Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors. Termination of the Incentive Plan shall not affect any previously granted share awards or stock options.

Awards to be Granted. Home Federal Bancorp has not made any determination as to the timing or recipients of grants of share awards or stock options under the Incentive Plan. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock to which Awards may be granted to any individual shall be 25,000 shares in the aggregate.

Awards Granted or Available Under Existing Plans . As of the date hereof, awards covering 228,258 stock options and 50,688 unvested share awards were outstanding under Home Federal Bancorp’s existing 2005 and 2011 stock benefit plans and no shares remained available for grant under the plans. The 2005 stock benefit plans are expiring on June 8, 2015, ten years from the date of adoption by the Board of Directors.

Federal Income Tax Consequences. Set forth below is a summary of the federal income tax consequences under the Internal Revenue Code relating to awards which may be granted under the Incentive Plan.

Incentive Stock Options. No taxable income is recognized by the optionee upon the grant or exercise of an incentive stock option that meets the requirements of Section 422 of the Code. However, the exercise of an incentive stock option may result in alternative minimum tax liability for the optionee. If no disposition of shares issued to an optionee pursuant to the exercise of an incentive stock option is made by the optionee within two years from the date of grant or within one year after the date of exercise, then upon sale of such shares, any amount realized in excess of the exercise price (the amount paid for the shares) will be taxed to the optionee as a long-term capital gain and any loss sustained will be a long-term capital loss, and no deduction will be allowed to Home Federal Bancorp for federal income tax purposes.

If shares of common stock acquired upon the exercise of an incentive stock option are disposed of prior to the expiration of the two-year and one-year holding periods described above (a “disqualifying disposition”), the optionee generally will recognize ordinary income in the year of disposition in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise (or, if less, the amount realized on an arm's length sale of such shares) over the exercise price of the underlying options, and Home Federal Bancorp will be entitled to deduct such amount. Any gain realized from the shares in excess of the amount taxed as ordinary income will be taxed as capital gain and will not be deductible by Home Federal Bancorp.

An incentive stock option will not be eligible for the tax treatment described above if it is exercised more than three months following termination of employment, except in certain cases where the incentive stock option is exercised after the death or permanent and total disability of the optionee. If an incentive stock option is exercised at a time when it no longer qualifies for the tax treatment described above, the option is treated as a non-qualified stock option.

Non-qualified Stock Options. No taxable income is recognized by the optionee at the time a non-qualified stock option is granted under the Incentive Plan. Generally, on the date of exercise of a non-qualified stock option, ordinary income is recognized by the optionee in an amount equal to the difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise, and Home Federal Bancorp receives a tax deduction for the same amount. Upon disposition of the shares acquired, an optionee generally recognizes the appreciation or depreciation on the shares after the date of exercise as either short-term or long-term capital gain or loss depending on how long the shares have been held. In general, common stock issued upon exercise of an option granted under the Incentive Plan will be transferable and not subject to a risk of forfeiture at the time issued.

Share Awards . Upon the receipt of a share award, the holder will realize income for federal income tax purposes equal to the amount received and Home Federal Bancorp will be entitled to a deduction for federal income tax purposes in the same amount. Pursuant to Section 83 of the Code, recipients of share awards will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares of common stock granted to them at the time that the shares vest and become transferable. A recipient of a share award may also elect, however, to accelerate the recognition of income with respect to his or her grant to the time when shares of common stock are first transferred to him or her, notwithstanding the vesting schedule of such awards. Home Federal Bancorp will be entitled to deduct as a compensation expense for tax purposes the same amounts recognized as income by recipients of share awards in the year in which such amounts are included in income.

The above description of tax consequences under federal income tax law is necessarily general in nature and is not complete. Moreover, statutory provisions are subject to change, as are their interpretations, and their application may vary in individual circumstances. Finally, the consequences under applicable state and local income tax laws may not be the same as under the federal income tax laws.

Accounting Treatment. Home Federal Bancorp will recognize the cost of employee services received in share-based payment transactions, including stock options, and measure the cost on the grant-date fair value of the award. That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the share award or the stock option. Home Federal Bancorp will recognize compensation expense on share awards at the time of vesting. The amount of compensation expense recognized for accounting purposes is based upon the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant to recipients, rather than the fair market value at the time of vesting for tax purposes, unless the grants are performance based. In such event, the fair market value on the date of vesting will be recognized as compensation expense. The vesting of plan share awards will have the effect of increasing Home Federal Bancorp’s compensation expense and will be a factor in determining Home Federal Bancorp’s earnings per share on a fully diluted basis.

Stockholder Approval. No share awards or stock options will be granted under the Incentive Plan unless the Incentive Plan is approved by stockholders. Stockholder ratification of the Incentive Plan will satisfy certain federal tax requirements applicable to incentive stock options.

The Board of Directors recommends that stockholders vote FOR adoption of the

2014 Stock Incentive Plan.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of Home Federal Bancorp’s common stock to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by regulation to furnish Home Federal Bancorp with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. We know of no person who owns 10% or more of our common stock.

Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms furnished to us, or written representations from our officers and directors, we believe that during, and with respect to, the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, all of our officers and directors complied in all respects with the reporting requirements promulgated under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM (PROPOSAL THREE)

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Home Federal Bancorp has appointed LaPorte, A Professional Accounting Corporation to perform the audit of our financial statements for the year ending June 30, 2015, and further directed that the selection of auditors be submitted for ratification by the shareholders at the annual meeting.

We have been advised by LaPorte that neither that firm nor any of its associates has any relationship with Home Federal Bancorp or its subsidiaries other than the usual relationship that exists between an independent registered public accounting firm and its clients. LaPorte will have one or more representatives at the annual meeting who will have an opportunity to make a statement, if they so desire, and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

In determining whether to appoint LaPorte as our independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee considered whether the provision of services, other than auditing services, by LaPorte is compatible with maintaining their independence. In fiscal 2014 and 2013, LaPorte performed auditing services as well as reviewed our public filings. The Audit Committee believes that LaPorte’s performance of these services is compatible with maintaining the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence.

Audit Fees

The following table sets forth the aggregate fees paid by us to LaPorte for professional services rendered by LaPorte in connection with the audit of Home Federal Bancorp’s consolidated financial statements for fiscal 2014 and 2013, as well as the fees paid by us to LaPorte for audit-related services, tax services and all other services rendered by LaPorte to us during fiscal 2014 and 2013.

	Year Ended June 30,
	2014		2013
Audit fees (1)	$	93,700	$	72,742
Audit-related fees (2)		663		853
Tax fees		--		--
All other fees		--		--
Total	$	94,363	$	73,595

____________________

(1)

Audit fees consist of fees incurred in connection with the audit of our annual financial statements and the review of the interim financial statements included in our quarterly reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as work generally only the independent auditor can reasonably be expected to provide, such as statutory audits, consents and assistance with and review of documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

(2)

Audit-related fees for 2014 and 2013 consist of fees incurred in connection with accounting consultation and research.

The Audit Committee selects our independent registered public accounting firm and pre-approves all audit services to be provided by it to Home Federal Bancorp. The Audit Committee also reviews and pre-approves all audit-related and non-audit related services rendered by our independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with the Audit Committee’s charter. In its review of these services and related fees and terms, the Audit Committee considers, among other things, the possible effect of the performance of such services on the independence of our independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee pre-approves certain audit-related services and certain non-audit related tax services which are specifically described by the Audit Committee on an annual basis and separately approves other individual engagements as necessary.

Each new engagement of LaPorte, A Professional Accounting Corporation was approved in advance by the Audit Committee or its Chair, and none of those engagements made use of the de minimis exception to pre-approval contained in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules.

The Board of Directors recommends that you vote FOR the ratification of the appointment

of LaPorte , A Professional Accounting Corporation for the

fiscal year ending June 30, 2015.

OPTIONS

Each Option granted hereunder shall be on the following terms and conditions:

The proper Officers on behalf of the Corporation and each Optionee shall execute a stock option agreement which shall set forth the total number of shares of Common Stock to which it pertains, the exercise price, whether it is a Non-Qualified Option or an Incentive Stock Option, and such other terms, conditions, restrictions and privileges as the Board or the Committee in each instance shall deem appropriate, provided they are not inconsistent with the terms, conditions and provisions of this Plan. Each Optionee shall receive a copy of his executed stock option agreement. Any Option granted with the intention that it will be an Incentive Stock Option but which fails to satisfy a requirement for Incentive Stock Options shall continue to be valid and shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Option.

8.02 Option Exercise Price.

(a) Incentive Stock Options. The per share price at which the subject Common Stock may be purchased upon exercise of an Incentive Stock Option shall be no less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock at the time such Incentive Stock Option is granted, except as provided in Section 8.09(b).

(b) Non-Qualified Options. The per share price at which the subject Common Stock may be purchased upon exercise of a Non-Qualified Option shall be established by the Committee at the time of grant, but in no event shall be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock at the time such Non-Qualified Option is granted.

(c) Prohibition of Repricing. Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.01, the exercise price of an Option may not be reduced, directly or indirectly by cancellation and re-grant or otherwise, without the prior approval of the shareholders of the Corporation.

8.03 Vesting and Exercise of Options.

(a) General Rule. Incentive Stock Options and Non-Qualified Options shall become vested and exercisable at the rate, to the extent and subject to such limitations as may be specified by the Board or the Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no vesting shall occur on or after an Optionee’s employment or service as a Non-Employee Director with the Corporation and all Subsidiary Companies is terminated for any reason other than his death, Disability or a Change in Control. In determining the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which Options are vested and/or exercisable, fractional shares will be rounded up to the nearest whole number if the fraction is 0.5 or higher, and down if it is less.

(b) Accelerated Vesting. Unless the Committee or Board shall specifically state otherwise at the time an Option is granted, all Options granted under this Plan shall become vested and exercisable in full on the date an Optionee terminates his employment with the Corporation or a Subsidiary Company or service as a Non-Employee Director because of his death or Disability. In addition, all outstanding Options shall become immediately vested and exercisable in full as of the effective date of a Change in Control.

8.04 Duration of Options.

(a) General Rule . Except as provided in Sections 8.04(b) and 8.09, each Option or portion thereof shall be exercisable at any time on or after it vests and remain exercisable until the earlier of (i) ten (10) years after its date of grant or (ii) six (6) months after the date on which the Employee or Non-Employee Director ceases to be employed by or serve the Corporation and all Subsidiary Companies, or any successor thereto, unless the Board or the Committee in its discretion decides at the time of grant to extend such six-month period in clause (ii) to a period not exceeding three (3) years. In the event an Incentive Stock Option is not exercised within 90 days of the effective date of termination of the Optionee’s status as an employee, the tax treatment accorded Incentive Stock Options by the Code may not be available. In addition, the accelerated vesting of Incentive Stock Options provided by Section 8.04 may result in all or a portion of such Incentive Stock Options no longer qualifying as Incentive Stock Options.

A-6

(b) Exceptions . Unless the Board or the Committee shall specifically state otherwise at the time an Option is granted, if an Employee or Non-Employee Director terminates his employment or service as a director with the Corporation or a Subsidiary Company as a result of Disability without having fully exercised his Options, the Employee or Non-Employee Director shall have the right to exercise such Options following his termination due to Disability until one (1) year following the date of termination of employment or service as a director due to Disability, subject to the last sentence of this Section 8.04(b).

Unless the Board or the Committee shall specifically state otherwise at the time an Option is granted, if an Employee or Non-Employee Director terminates his employment or service with the Corporation or a Subsidiary Company following a Change in Control without having fully exercised his Options, the Optionee shall have the right to exercise such Options during the remainder of the original ten (10) year term (or five (5) year term for Options subject to Section 8.09(b) hereof) of the Option from the date of grant.

If an Optionee dies while in the employ or service of the Corporation or a Subsidiary Company or terminates employment or service with the Corporation or a Subsidiary Company as a result of Disability and dies without having fully exercised his Options, the executors, administrators, legatees or distributees of his estate shall have the right, during the one (1) year period following his death, to exercise such Options.

In no event, however, shall any Option be exercisable more than ten (10) years (five (5) years for Options subject to Section 8.09(b) hereof) from the date it was granted.

8.05 Nonassignability. Options shall not be transferable by an Optionee except by will or the laws of descent or distribution, and during an Optionee’s lifetime shall be exercisable only by such Optionee or the Optionee’s guardian or legal representative. Notwithstanding the foregoing, or any other provision of this Plan, an Optionee who holds Non-Qualified Options may transfer such Options to his or her spouse, lineal ascendants, lineal descendants, or to a duly established trust for the benefit of one or more of these individuals. Options so transferred may thereafter be transferred only to the Optionee who originally received the grant or to an individual or trust to whom the Optionee could have initially transferred the Option pursuant to this Section 8.05. Options which are transferred pursuant to this Section 8.05 shall be exercisable by the transferee according to the same terms and conditions as applied to the Optionee.

8.06 Manner of Exercise . Options may be exercised in part or in whole and at one time or from time to time. The procedures for exercise shall be set forth in the written stock option agreement provided for in Section 8.01 above.

8.07 Payment for Shares . Payment in full of the purchase price for shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant to the exercise of any Option shall be made to the Corporation upon exercise of the Option. All shares sold under the Plan shall be fully paid and nonassessable. Payment for shares may be made by the Optionee (i) in cash or by check, (ii) by delivery of a properly executed exercise notice, together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to sell the shares and then to properly deliver to the Corporation the amount of sale proceeds to pay the exercise price, all in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and Financial Accounting Standards Board ASC Topic 718, or any successor thereto, (iii) at the discretion of the Board or the Committee, by delivering shares of Common Stock (including shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Option) equal in Fair Market Value to the purchase price of the shares to be acquired pursuant to the Option, (iv) at the discretion of the Board or the Committee, by withholding some of the shares of Common Stock which are being purchased upon exercise of an Option, or (v) any combination of the foregoing. With respect to subclause (iii) hereof, the shares of Common Stock delivered to pay the purchase price must have either been (x) purchased in open market transactions or (y) issued by the Corporation pursuant to a plan thereof, in each case more than six months prior to the exercise date of the Option.

(c) Notice of Disposition; Withholding; Escrow. An Optionee shall immediately notify the Corporation in writing of any sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition (or action constituting a disqualifying disposition within the meaning of Section 421 of the Code) of any shares of Common Stock acquired through exercise of an Incentive Stock Option, within two (2) years after the grant of such Incentive Stock Option or within one (1) year after the acquisition of such shares, setting forth the date and manner of disposition, the number of shares disposed of and the price at which such shares were disposed of. The Corporation shall be entitled to withhold from any compensation or other payments then or thereafter due to the Optionee such amounts as may be necessary to satisfy any withholding requirements of federal or state law or regulation and, further, to collect from the Optionee any additional amounts which may be required for such purpose. The Committee may, in its discretion, require shares of Common Stock acquired by an Optionee upon exercise of an Incentive Stock Option to be held in an escrow arrangement for the purpose of enabling compliance with the provisions of this Section 8.09(c).

As described in the enclosed materials, proxies are being solicited in connection with the proposals to be considered at the upcoming Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Home Federal Bancorp.

Enclosed with this letter is the Proxy Statement, which describes the matters to be voted upon, Annual Report for the year ended June 30, 2014 and Voting Instruction Ballot. After you have reviewed the Proxy Statement, we urge you to vote your allocated shares held in the 401(k) Plan by marking, dating, signing and returning the enclosed Voting Instruction Ballot in the envelope provided or voting by phone or the Internet. In order to be effective, your voting instructions must be received no later than 11:59 P.M. Eastern Time on November 5, 2014.
