(b) Unless a Default shall have occurred, Pledgor shall be entitled to vote any and all shares of the Pledged Stock and to give consents, waivers and ratifications in respect thereof, provided that no vote shall be cast, no consent, waiver or ratification shall be given and

no action shall be taken by Pledgor that would violate or be inconsistent with any of the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Note or this Pledge Agreement, or that would have the effect of impairing the position or interests of Pledgor or any holder of the Note. All such rights of Pledgor to vote and to give consents, waivers and ratifications shall cease upon the occurrence of a Default and thereafter only Bank (or its nominees) shall be entitled to exercise all such rights.

(b) Pledgor has the corporate power to execute, deliver and perform the terms and provisions of this Pledge Agreement and has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by it of this Pledge Agreement. Pledgor has duly executed and delivered this Pledge Agreement, and this Pledge Agreement constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws and subject to general principles of equity. No basis presently exists for any claim against Bank under this Pledge Agreement or with respect to the enforcement thereof, and this Pledge Agreement is subject to no defenses of any kind.

(c) Neither the execution, delivery or performance by Pledgor of this Pledge Agreement, nor compliance by it with the terms and provisions hereof will: (i) contravene any provision of any law, statute, rule or regulation or any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality; (ii) conflict or be inconsistent with or result in any breach of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien (as defined in the Loan Agreement) upon any of the property or assets of Pledgor or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, credit agreement, loan agreement or any other agreement, contract or instrument to which Pledgor or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of its property or assets is bound or to which it may be subject; or (iii) violate any provision of the articles or certificate of incorporation, charter or bylaws of Pledgor or any of its Subsidiaries.

(e) The Pledged Stock represents 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Gold Bank-Kansas.

(f) The pledge, assignment and delivery of the GBC Pledged Security pursuant to this Pledge Agreement creates a valid first lien and security interest in the GBC Pledged Security in favor of Bank, and the proceeds thereof, subject to no prior Lien or to any agreement purporting to grant to any third party a security interest in the assets of Pledgor which would include any of the GBC Pledged Security (except as may exist in favor of Bank).

(g) None of the Pledged Stock constitutes margin stock, as defined in Regulation U promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

(h) Except as disclosed in the Loan Agreement, to Pledgor’s Knowledge, no condition, circumstance, document, restriction, litigation or proceeding (or threatened litigation or proceeding or basis therefor) exists which could adversely affect the validity or priority of the Liens granted Bank hereunder, which could materially adversely affect the ability of Pledgor to perform the obligations under this Pledge Agreement, which would constitute a default hereunder or thereunder or which would constitute such a default with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both.

(i) None of the actions contemplated by this Pledge Agreement are in violation of or restricted by any restrictive agreement, stop transfer order, any legend appearing on the certificates evidencing any of the GBC Pledged Security consisting of stock, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, any state blue-sky or securities law or any rule or regulation issued under the foregoing acts and laws.

Section 8. Remedies Cumulative. Each right, power and remedy of Bank provided in this Pledge Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power or remedy provided for in this Pledge Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise. The exercise or partial exercise by Bank of any one or more of such rights, powers or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Bank of all such other rights, powers or remedies, and no failure or delay on the part of Bank to exercise any such right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof.

Obligations or any security agreement securing the Obligations shall affect the rights of Bank in the GBC Pledged Security.

Section 10. Other Waivers. Waiver by Bank of any Default hereunder, or of any breach of the provisions of this Pledge Agreement by Pledgor, or any right of Bank hereunder, shall not constitute a waiver of any other Default or breach or right, nor the same Default or breach or right on a future occasion.

Section 11. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Pledge Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but, if any provision of this Pledge Agreement shall be held to be prohibited or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Pledge Agreement.

Section 12. Pledgor’s Obligations Absolute. The obligations of Pledgor under this Pledge Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, discharged or in any way impaired by any circumstance whatsoever, including without limitation: (a) any amendment or modification of either or both of the Notes, this Pledge Agreement, the Loan Agreement or any document or instrument provided for herein or therein or related thereto, or any assignment, transfer or other disposition of any thereof; (b) any waiver, consent, extension, indulgence or other action or inaction under or in respect of any such document or instrument or any exercise or non-exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect of any such document or instrument or this Pledge Agreement; (c) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or similar proceeding with respect to Pledgor or any of its properties or creditors; or (d) any limitation on Pledgor’s liabilities, obligations, duties, or indebtedness under any such instrument or any invalidity or unenforceability, in whole or in part of any such document or instrument or any term thereof; whether or not Pledgor shall have notice or knowledge of the foregoing.

will comply with all such statutes and regulations, if any, as may be required by law in order to establish, perfect, preserve and protect the rights and security interests of Bank hereunder.
