(a) If a Party becomes aware of any matter that it believes is indemnifiable (the “Indemnitee”) by the other Party hereto, including, as the case may be, the Shareholder (the “Indemnifying Party”) and such matter involves (i) any claim made against the Indemnitee by any Person or entity other than a Party or (ii) the commencement of any action, suit, investigation, arbitration, or similar proceeding against the Indemnitee by any Person other than a Party, the Indemnitee will give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice of such claim or the commencement of such action, suit, investigation, arbitration, or similar proceeding. Such notice will (i) provide (with reasonable specificity) the basis on which indemnification is being asserted, (ii) set forth the actual or estimated amount of damages for which indemnification is being asserted, if known, and (iii) be accompanied by copies of all relevant pleadings, demands, and other papers served on the Indemnitee. The failure to provide the notice promptly will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 10 except to the extent of any damages that would not have been incurred if the notice had been given promptly.

(b) The Indemnifying Party will have a period of 30 days after the delivery of each notice required by Section 10(a) hereof during which to respond to such notice. If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend the claim described in such notice within such 30-day period, the Indemnifying Party will be obligated to settle or defend such claim, at its own expense and by counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee will cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party and counsel for the Indemnifying Party in the defense against any such claim, and the Indemnitee will have the right to participate at its own expense in the defense of any such claim. If the Indemnifying Party responds within such 30-day period and elects not to defend such claim, or does not respond within such 30-day period, the Indemnitee will be free to settle or defend (and control the defense of) such claim and to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnitee under applicable Law. The Indemnitee’s settlement or defense will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 10.

(c) Any settlement of any claim (whether defended by the Indemnitee or by the Indemnifying Party) will require the prior written consent of the Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld). If, however, the Indemnitee refuses to consent to a reasonable and bona fide offer of settlement involving solely the payment of money that the Indemnifying Party desires to accept, the Indemnitee may continue to pursue such claim, free of any participation by the Indemnifying Party, at the sole expense of the Indemnitee for the period continued by the Indemnitee. In such event, the obligation of the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnitee will equal the amount of the offer of settlement that the Indemnifying Party desired to accept, plus the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (except for expenses resulting from the Indemnitee’s participation in any defense controlled by the Indemnifying Party) and other damages incurred by the Indemnitee before the Indemnitee refused to accept the offer of settlement and any damages incurred after the refusal to the extent they would have been covered by the indemnification in this Section 10 if the Indemnitee had not refused to accept the settlement.

(d) If an Indemnitee becomes aware of any matter that it believes is indemnifiable, the Indemnitee will give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice of such claim. Such notice will (i) provide (with reasonable specificity) the basis for which indemnification is being asserted and (ii) set forth the actual or estimated amount of damages for which indemnification is being asserted. The failure to provide the notice promptly will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 10 except to the extent any Damages that would not have been incurred if the notice had been given promptly. The Indemnifying Party will have a period of 30 days after the delivery of each notice required by this Section 10 during which to respond to such notice. If the Indemnifying Party accepts (in writing) full responsibility for the claim described in such notice, the actual or estimated amount of Damages reflected in such notice will be conclusively deemed a Liability that the Indemnifying Party owes, and will pay (in cash) upon demand, to the Indemnitee. If the Indemnifying Party has disputed such claim or does not respond within such 30-day period, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnitee agree to proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute. If all such disputes are not resolved through negotiations within 30 days after such negotiations begin, either the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnitee may initiate litigation to resolve such disputes. If the Indemnifying Party does not respond within 30 days after delivery of any claim notice required by this Section 10, the Indemnitee may initiate litigation to resolve such claim.

11. Procedures Relating to Tax Indemnification. If a claim shall be made by any taxing authority, or the party receiving notice of such claim shall promptly notify the other party in writing of such claim (a “Tax Claim”). If notice of a Tax Claim is not given to the Indemnifying Party promptly after receipt of correspondence from any taxing authority requesting audit adjustments, or in reasonable detail to apprise the Indemnifying Party of the nature of the Tax Claim, in each case taking into account the facts and circumstances with respect to such Tax Claim, such failure to provide notice promptly will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 11 except and to the extent that the failure to timely notify actually prejudices the Indemnifying Party’s ability to contest such Tax Claim.

With respect to any Tax Claim, the Indemnifying Party may control all proceedings taken solely in connection with such Tax Claim (including, without limitation, selection of and payment for counsel reasonably acceptable to Indemnitee) and, without limiting the foregoing, may in its sole discretion pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with any taxing authority with respect thereto, and may, in its sole discretion, either pay the Tax claimed and ▇▇▇ for a refund where applicable Law permits such refund suits or contest the Tax Claim in any permissible manner; provided, however, that if (i) the results of such proceedings, suit, contest, claim, hearing, compromise or proposed settlement could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the assets, business, operations or financial condition of the Indemnitee or its ability to treat any income or losses in a particular manner for tax calculation purposes for taxable periods ending after the Closing Date or (ii) any such proceedings, suit, contest, claim, hearing, compromise or proposed settlement or procedure involves Taxes other than Taxes subject to indemnification, the parties hereto shall consult and mutually agree on a reasonable good faith basis upon all aspects of the conduct of such matters. The Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate in contesting any Tax Claim, which cooperation shall include, without limitation, the retention and the provision to the Indemnifying Party of records and information which are reasonably relevant to such Tax Claim, and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information or explanation of any material provided hereunder or to testify at proceedings relating to such Tax Claim. In no case shall the Indemnitee settle or otherwise compromise any Tax Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

12. Tax Indemnity. Subject to the provisions of Section 9, the Seller or the Shareholder, jointly and severally, shall indemnify, save and hold harmless Buyer and Buyer shall indemnify, save and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all Damages incurred in connection with, arising out of, resulting from or incident to (a) any Taxes with respect to any Tax year or portion thereof ending on or before the Closing Date (or for any Tax year beginning before and ending after the Closing Date to the extent allocable (as determined in the following sentence) to the portion of such period beginning before and ending on the Closing Date), and (b) for the unpaid Taxes of any person under Treasury Regulations § 1.1502-6 (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign law), as a transferee or successor, by contract, or otherwise. For purposes of the preceding sentence, in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and are payable for a Tax period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date, the portion of such Tax that relates to the portion of such Tax period ending on the Closing Date shall (i) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income or receipts, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Tax period, and (ii) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income or receipts, be deemed equal to the amount which would by payable if the relevant Tax period ended on the Closing Date.

13. Indemnification Payments. The Indemnifying Party agrees that any payment required to be made under Sections 10 or 11 will be paid within ten (10) days after receipt of written request.

14. Termination.

(a) Termination of Agreement. The Parties may terminate this Agreement as provided below:

(i) the Buyer and the Seller may terminate this Agreement by mutual written consent at any time prior to the Closing;

(iv) the Seller may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to the Buyer at any time prior to the Closing (A) in the event the Buyer has breached any material representation, warranty, or covenant contained in this Agreement in any material respect, the Seller has notified the Buyer of the breach, and the breach has continued without cure for a period of ten (10) days after the notice of breach or (B) if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before the Closing Date, by reason of the failure of any condition precedent under Section 6(b) hereof (unless the failure results primarily from the Seller itself breaching any representation, warranty, or covenant contained in this Agreement).

(b) Effect of Termination. Except as otherwise provided herein, if any Party terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 14(a) above, all rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder shall terminate without any Liability of any Party to any other Party (except for any Liability of any Party then in breach).

(c) Break Up Fee. In the event that after the signing of this Agreement the transaction is not closed by the Closing Date for any reason, including the failure of any condition precedent to Buyer’s obligations, or Buyer elects not to or is unable to consummate the transaction, the Seller shall be entitled to collect from the Buyer a breakup fee of $100,000.00, provided, however, no such fee shall be due if the failure to close the transaction is due to the actions of Seller in contravention of this Agreement.

(d) Seller’s Default. In the event this transaction fails to close by reason of a breach of this Agreement by Seller, the Buyer’s remedies are limited to either: (i) specific performance or (ii) an amount equal to Buyer’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this transaction not to exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00)

15. Miscellaneous.

(a) Change of Name. Buyer may on or after the Closing Date, take any action that is necessary to change its name to “PanAmerican Bank” and Seller shall take action to change its name from “PanAmerican Bank.”

No claim for the recovery of any damages as a result of the breach of a representation or warranty may be asserted by any Party after such one-year period has expired; provided, however, that claims for damages resulting from a breach of a representation or warranty first asserted within such one period shall not thereafter be barred.

(c) Press Releases and Public Announcements. No Party shall issue any press release or make any public announcement relating to the subject matter of this Agreement without the prior written approval of the other Party; provided, however, that any Party may make any public disclosure it believes in good faith is required by applicable law or any listing or trading agreement concerning its publicly-traded securities (in which case the disclosing Party will use its best efforts to advise the other Party prior to making the disclosure).

(d) No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

(f) Succession and Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties named herein and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

(g) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

Any Party may send any notice, request, demand, claim, or other communication hereunder to the intended recipient at the address set forth above using any other means (including personal delivery, expedited courier, messenger service, ordinary mail, or electronic mail), but no such notice, request, demand, claim, or other communication shall be deemed to have been duly given unless and until it actually is received by the intended recipient. Any Party may change the address to which notices, requests, demands, claims, and other communications hereunder are to be delivered by giving the other Party notice in the manner herein set forth.

(j) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of Florida without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Florida or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Florida.

(k) Amendments and Waivers. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Buyer and the Seller. The Seller may consent to any such amendment at any time prior to the Closing with the prior authorization of its board of directors. No waiver by any Party of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence.

(l) Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction.

(m) Expenses. Each of the Buyer, the Seller, and the Shareholder will bear its own costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

(n) Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Any reference to any federal, state, local, or foreign statute or law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. The word “including” shall mean including without limitation. The Parties intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein shall have independent significance. If any Party has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty, or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the Party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant.

(o) Incorporation of Exhibits and Schedules. The Exhibits and Schedules identified in this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.

(p) Specific Performance. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the other Party would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached. Accordingly, each of the Parties agrees that the other Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in any action instituted in any court of the United States or any state thereof having jurisdiction over the Parties and the matter, subject to the provisions set forth in Section 15(q) below, in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity.

(q) Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the Parties submits to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in Miami-Dade County, Florida, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and agrees that all claims in respect of the action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court. Each Party also agrees not to bring any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other court. Each of the Parties waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any action or proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety, or other security that might be required of any other Party with respect thereto. Any Party may make service on the other Party by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the Party to be served at the address and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 15(i) above . Nothing in this Section 15(q), however, shall affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or in equity. Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any action or proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law or in equity.

(r) Confidentiality. Without the express written consent of all of the Parties, each of the Parties agrees to maintain in confidence and not disclose to any other Person the terms of the transactions contemplated hereby or the information delivered in connection with the proposed due diligence investigation, other than disclosures required to obtain the approvals for the transactions contemplated hereby, disclosures to those professionals and advisors who have a need to know, disclosures of information already available to the public or any other disclosures required by applicable law. In the event that the Buyer or Seller is at any time requested or required (by oral questions, interrogatories, request for information or documents, subpoena or other similar process) to disclose any information supplied to it in connection with this transaction, such Party agrees to provide the other Party prompt notice of such request so that an appropriate protective order may be sought and/or such other Party may waive the first Party’s compliance with the terms of this Section 15(r). For purposes of this Section 15(r), Party and Parties shall include each of the Shareholders.

(s) Fraudulent Transfer Laws. The Buyer acknowledges that the Seller will not comply with the provisions of any transfer laws of any jurisdiction in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Seller acknowledges that the subject transaction will not in any manner violate the terms of the Florida Fraudulent Transfer Act. Seller shall indemnify and hold Buyer harmless from any and all Liabilities resulting from noncompliance with the Florida Fraudulent Transfer Act, including, but not limited to, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of any such Liability or obligations.

(t) Third Parties. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any person, other than the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

(u) Registration. If at any time while Seller holds any of Buyer's common shares, Buyer takes action to register any of its shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any similar federal statute, Buyer shall give Seller prompt written notice of its intended action. If registration of any such securities held by Seller is then possible under applicable laws, regulations, and practices of the Securities and Exchange Commission or other appropriate governmental agency and Seller within 15 days after receipt of any such notice requests Buyer to do so, Buyer shall, at its expense, take action to register the Seller's shares at the same time and use its best efforts to the end that such registration shall become effective.

(v) Directors. SSBC will recommend and will use its best efforts to obtain the nomination and election of Mr. ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ to its board of directors and (ii) an individual suggested by Mr. ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ to the board of directors of Southern Security Bank. This provision shall survive the closing of this transaction.

2. First Security Bank of New Mexico v. PanAmerican Bank et. al., United States District Court for the District of New Mexico, Case No. 94-1464.

In August of 1994, CIC Capital (“CIC”), as agent for Banco Continental Overseas N.V. (“BCO”), requested that PanAmerican Bank, as custodian, transfer to First Security Bank of New Mexico (“First Security”) the sum of $495,000 for the purchase, for BCO, of a First Security certificate of deposit.

CIC dealt with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (“Stonebanks”), an alleged broker for First Security. Stonebanks was associated with a brokerage firm by the name of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Corp. (“▇▇▇▇▇▇▇”). After the funds were transferred by PanAmerican, it was learned that the instructions and directions concerning the wire transfer, which were ostensibly given on behalf of a ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇, an officer at First Security, were fraudulent and the account to which the funds were actually transferred was not an account of First Security but rather an account of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ at First Security.

Because there were certain funds still in the account of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ at First Security, First Security filed an interpleader action naming PanAmerican, as well as other potential claimants, as defendants in order to determine the entitlement of the various parties to those funds. PanAmerican in turn filed a counterclaim against First Security for recovery of the funds transferred, as well as an action against ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Stonebanks. The action against First Security was based on PanAmerican’s position that First Security improperly credited the wired funds to the account of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, because the wire instructions indicated that the beneficiary of the funds was First Security and not ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.

PanAmerican was the named party to this action because, in its capacity as custodian of BCO, PanAmerican was the remitter of the funds. The Bank, therefore, was prosecuting this action for the recovery of funds belonging to its customer, BCO.

Pursuant to a partial settlement with regards to the funds, the Bank recovered $71,452.90. Following a trial last month, the Court entered a judgment against the Bank denying recovery. It appears that this is the end of the case as no appeal will be taken from this judgment.

3. PanAmerican Bank vs. PanAmerican Bank, in the United States Patent and Trademark Office before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board, Cancellation No. 25,635. In 1998, a bank with principal offices in California named also PanAmerican Bank filed a petition with the United States Trial and Appeal Board alleging that it had been using the name PanAmerican Bank prior to the time that the Bank registered PanAmerican Bank as a trademark.
