For Immediate Release
PrivateBancorp, Inc. Raises $194 Million in New Capital
CHICAGO, November 2, 2009 PrivateBancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: PVTB) today announced it has
closed its recently announced underwritten public offering of common stock, which included the full
exercise of the underwriters overallotment option, and issued a total of 22.2 million shares for
net proceeds of $181.2 million to the Company after deducting underwriting commissions. Of that
amount, approximately $35.3 million was purchased by certain funds managed by GTCR Golder Rauner
II, L.L.C.
In addition, GTCR has purchased approximately $12.8 million of non-voting common stock of the
Company, or 1.6 million shares, through an exercise of preemptive rights (based on the aggregate
public offering amount less the amount purchased by GTCR in the public offering).
The shares of common stock in the public offering were issued pursuant to a prospectus
supplement to the prospectus filed as a part of the Companys effective shelf-registration
statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-150767). The net proceeds from the offering, as well as from
the sale of non-voting common stock, will qualify as tangible common equity and Tier 1 capital and
will be used to further capitalize the Companys banks in order to support continued growth and for
working capital and other general corporate purposes, including possible FDIC-assisted acquisition
transactions subject to satisfying eligibility requirements to participate in such transactions.
In addition, as a result of these transactions, the Company is now eligible to request that the
U.S. Department of the Treasury reduce the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise
of the warrant held by the U.S. Treasury by 50 percent to 645,013 shares.
J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. was the sole book-running manager for the offering. SunTrust
Robinson Humphrey, Inc. was lead manager. Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated, Keefe, Bruyette &
Woods, Inc. and William Blair & Company, L.L.C. were co-managers.

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements contained in this release that are not historical facts may constitute forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
The Companys ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is
inherently uncertain. Factors that could affect the Companys expectations concerning the
offering, including without limitation the application of the net proceeds from the offering and
the sale of non-voting common stock, or which could have a material adverse effect on the
operations and future prospects of the Company include, but are not limited to, continued
deterioration of general economic and business conditions, including the real estate and financial
markets, in the U.S. and in the Companys markets; further deterioration in asset quality,
including transactions extended directly for commercial real estate property investment, and to
investors in real estate projects; difficult commercial real estate market conditions and
collateral values and absorption of projects available for lease remaining soft; the effect of
continuing weak economic conditions on industry segments, in addition to commercial real estate,
causing an increase in under-performing and non-performing loans; changes in legal or regulatory
requirements or the results of regulatory examinations that could adversely impact the Companys
business and financial condition or restrict growth, including its ability to pursue FDIC-assisted
transactions; additional adverse developments in its loan or investment portfolios; any need to
continue to further increase the Companys allowance for loan losses; unforeseen difficulties,
higher than expected costs and the inability to manage operational risks associated with the
continued execution of the Companys Strategic Growth Plan; and the risks and other factors
disclosed in the Companys public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These risks
and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance
should not be placed on such statements. The Company assumes no obligation to update publicly any
of these statements in light of future events unless required under the federal securities laws.
