C. Purchaser desires to purchase from Seller, and Seller desires to sell to Purchaser, on the following terms and conditions, the Bank Stock (the “Stock Purchase”).

D. The boards of directors of each of Purchaser and Seller, respectively, have approved this Agreement and the Stock Purchase.

AGREEMENTS

In consideration of the foregoing premises and the following mutual promises, covenants and agreements, the parties hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1

THE STOCK PURCHASE

Section 1.1 Sale and Purchase of Bank Stock. On the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, Seller agrees to sell the Bank Stock to Purchaser, and Purchaser agrees to purchase and accept delivery of the Bank Stock, in exchange for the payment to Seller of $80,000,000 (the “Stock Purchase Consideration”).

Section 1.2 Effective Time; Closing. Provided that this Agreement shall not prior thereto have been terminated in accordance with its express terms, the closing of the

Contemplated Transactions (the “Closing”) shall occur through the mail or at a place that is mutually acceptable to Purchaser and Seller, or if they fail to agree, at the offices of Barack ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, located at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, at 10:00 a.m., local time, on the date that is within ten (10) Business Days after the satisfaction or waiver (subject to applicable Legal Requirements) of the latest to occur of the conditions set forth in Article 8 and Article 9 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied or waived at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions) or at such other time and place as Purchaser and Seller may agree in writing (the “Closing Date”). Subject to the provisions of Article 10, failure to consummate the Contemplated Transactions on the date and time and at the place determined pursuant to this Section 1.2 will not result in the termination of this Agreement and will not relieve any party of any obligation under this Agreement. The Contemplated Transactions shall be deemed to be effective at 11:59 p.m. on the Closing Date (the “Effective Time”).

Section 1.3 Absence of Control. Subject to any specific provisions of this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties to this Agreement that Purchaser, by reason of this Agreement, shall not be deemed (until consummation of the Contemplated Transactions) to control, directly or indirectly, the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries and shall not exercise, or be deemed to exercise, directly or indirectly, a controlling influence over the management or policies of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries.

Section 1.4 Alternative Structure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, before the Effective Time, the parties may mutually agree to change the method of effecting the Contemplated Transactions if and to the extent that it deems such a change to be desirable; provided, that: (a) any such change shall not affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Contemplated Transactions to Seller; and (b) no such change shall (i) alter or change the amount or kind of the consideration to be issued to Seller as consideration for the Stock Purchase or (ii) materially impede or delay consummation of the Contemplated Transactions. If the parties agree to make such a change, they shall execute appropriate documents to reflect the change.

ARTICLE 2

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER

Except as Previously Disclosed, Seller hereby represents and warrants to Purchaser as follows, as of the date hereof (unless a representation or warranty expressly relates to another specified date):

Section 2.1 Seller Organization. Seller: (a) is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Iowa and is also in good standing in each other jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or the properties or assets owned or leased by it makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified and in good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect on Seller; (b) is

registered with the Federal Reserve as a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended; and (c) has full power and authority, corporate and otherwise, to operate as a bank holding company and to own, operate and lease its properties as presently owned, operated and leased, and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted. Seller has delivered or made available to Purchaser copies of the Seller Articles of Incorporation and Seller Bylaws and all amendments thereto, each of which are true, complete and correct, and in full force and effect as of the date of this Agreement.

Section 2.2 Subsidiary Organization. The Bank is an Iowa state chartered bank duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Iowa. The Insurance Subsidiary is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Iowa. Each Seller Subsidiary has full power and authority, corporate and otherwise, to own, operate and lease its properties as presently owned, operated and leased, and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted, and is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or the properties or assets owned or leased by it makes such qualification necessary. The deposit accounts of the Bank are insured by the FDIC through the Deposit Insurance Fund to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, and all premiums and assessments required to be paid in connection therewith have been paid when due. Seller has delivered or made available to Purchaser copies of the articles of incorporation or charter (or similar organizational documents) and bylaws of each Seller Subsidiary and all amendments thereto, each of which are true, complete and correct and in full force and effect as of the date of this Agreement. The Bank has no subsidiaries other than the Insurance Subsidiary.

Section 2.3 Authorization; Enforceability. Seller has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Seller, and the consummation by it of its obligations under this Agreement, have been authorized by all necessary corporate action, subject to the Seller Shareholder Approval, and, subject to the receipt of the Requisite Regulatory Approvals, this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Seller enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other Legal Requirements affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity.

Section 2.4 No Conflict. Neither the execution nor delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation or performance of any of the Contemplated Transactions will, directly or indirectly (with or without notice or lapse of time): (a) contravene, conflict with or result in a violation of any provision of the articles of incorporation or charter (or similar organizational documents) or bylaws, each as in effect on the date hereof, or any currently effective resolution adopted by the board of directors or shareholders of, Seller or any Seller Subsidiary; (b) assuming receipt of the Requisite Regulatory Approvals, contravene, conflict with or result in a violation of, or give any Regulatory Authority or other Person the valid and enforceable right to challenge any of the Contemplated Transactions or to exercise any remedy or obtain any relief under, any Legal Requirement or any Order to which Seller or any Seller Subsidiary, or any of

their respective assets that are owned or used by them, may be subject, except for any contravention, conflict or violation that is permissible by virtue of obtaining the Requisite Regulatory Approvals; (c) contravene, conflict with or result in a violation or breach of any provision of, or give any Person the right to declare a default or exercise any remedy under, or to accelerate the maturity or performance of, or to cancel, terminate or modify any Material Contract; or (d) result in the creation of any material lien, charge or encumbrance upon or with respect to any of the assets owned or used by the Bank or its Subsidiaries. Except for the Requisite Regulatory Approvals and Seller Shareholder Approval, neither Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries is or will be required to give any notice to or obtain any consent from any Person in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation or performance of any of the Contemplated Transactions.

Section 2.5 Bank Capitalization.

(a) The authorized capital stock of the Bank currently consists exclusively of 25,000 shares of the Bank Stock, of which, as of April 30, 2016 (the “Bank Capitalization Date”), 6,000 shares were issued and outstanding. The Bank does not have outstanding any bonds, debentures, notes or other debt obligations having the right to vote (or convertible into, or exchangeable for, securities having the right to vote) with Seller on any matter. All of the issued and outstanding shares of Bank Stock have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable. All of the issued and outstanding shares of Bank Stock are directly owned by Seller, free and clear of any liens, pledges, charges, claims and security interests and similar encumbrances, and all of such shares are duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable.

(b) None of the shares of Bank Stock were issued in violation of any federal or state securities laws or any other applicable Legal Requirement. There are: (i) no outstanding subscriptions, Contracts, conversion privileges, options, warrants, calls or other rights obligating the Bank to issue, sell or otherwise dispose of, or to purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire, any shares of Bank Stock; and (ii) no contractual obligations of the Bank to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any shares of Bank Stock or any securities representing the right to purchase or otherwise receive any shares of Bank Stock. Except as permitted by this Agreement, since the Bank Capitalization Date, no shares of Bank Stock have been purchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired, directly or indirectly, by the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries and no dividends or other distributions payable in any equity securities of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries have been declared, set aside, made or paid to Seller. The Bank does not own or have any Contract to acquire, any equity interests or other securities of any Person or any direct or indirect equity or ownership interest in any other business.

Section 2.6 Bank Subsidiary Capitalization. All of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock or other equity ownership interests of each Subsidiary of the Bank are directly owned by the Bank, free and clear of any liens, pledges, charges, claims and security interests and similar encumbrances, and all of such shares or equity ownership interests are duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable. No Subsidiary of the Bank has or is bound by any outstanding subscriptions, Contracts, conversion privileges,

options, warrants, calls or other rights obligating such Subsidiary to issue, sell or otherwise dispose of, or to purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire, any shares of capital stock or any other equity security of such Subsidiary. No Subsidiary of the Bank owns or has any Contract to acquire, any equity interests or other securities of any Person or any direct or indirect equity or ownership interest in any other business.

Section 2.7 Financial Statements and Reports; Regulatory Filings.

(a) True and complete copies of the following financial statements (collectively, the “Bank Financial Statements”) have been made available to Purchaser: (i) the audited consolidated balance sheets of the Bank as of December 31, 2013, 2014 and 2015, and the related statements of income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the fiscal years then ended; and (ii) the unaudited consolidated interim balance sheet of the Bank as of March 31, 2016 and the related statement of income for the three-month period then ended.

(b) The Bank Financial Statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP, except in each case as indicated in such statements or the notes thereto, and comply in all material respects with all applicable Legal Requirements. The Bank Financial Statements are complete and correct in all material respects and fairly and accurately present the respective financial position, assets, liabilities and results of operations of the Bank and its Subsidiaries at the respective dates of and for the periods referred to in Bank Financial Statements. To the Knowledge of Seller, the Bank Financial Statements do not include any assets or omit to state any liabilities, absolute or contingent, or other facts, which inclusion or omission would render the Bank Financial Statements misleading in any material respect as of the respective dates thereof and for the periods referred to therein.

(c) The Bank and each of its Subsidiaries has filed all forms, reports and documents required to be filed since January 1, 2013, with all applicable federal or state securities or banking authorities. Such forms, reports and documents: (i) complied as to form with applicable Legal Requirements; and (ii) did not at the time they were filed, after giving effect to any amendment thereto filed prior to the date hereof, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except that information filed as of a later date (but before the date of this Agreement) is deemed to modify information as of an earlier date.

Section 2.8 Books and Records. The books of account, minute books, stock record books and other records of the Bank and its Subsidiaries are complete and correct in all material respects and have been maintained in accordance with the Bank’s business practices and all applicable Legal Requirements, including the maintenance of an adequate system of internal controls required by such Legal Requirements. The minute books of the Bank and each of its Subsidiaries contain accurate and complete records in all material respects of all meetings held of, and corporate action taken by, its respective shareholders, boards of directors and committees of the boards of directors. At the Closing, all of those books and records will be in the possession of the Bank and its Subsidiaries.

Section 2.9 Properties.

(a) Section 2.9(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule lists or describes all interests in real property owned by the Bank and its Subsidiaries, including OREO, and the principal buildings and structures located thereon, together with the address of such real estate, and each lease of real property to which the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, identifying the parties thereto, the annual rental payable, the expiration date thereof and a brief description of the property covered, and in each case of either owned or leased real property, the proper identification, if applicable, of each such property as a branch or main office or other office.

(b) The Bank and each of its Subsidiaries has good and marketable title to all assets and properties, whether real or personal, tangible or intangible, that it purports to own, subject to no liens, mortgages, security interests, encumbrances or charges of any kind except: (a) as noted in the most recent Bank Financial Statements; (b) statutory liens for Taxes not yet delinquent or being contested in good faith by appropriate Proceedings and for which appropriate reserves have been established and reflected on the Bank Financial Statements; (c) pledges or liens required to be granted in connection with the acceptance of government deposits, granted in connection with repurchase or reverse repurchase agreements or otherwise incurred in the Ordinary Course of Business; (d) easements, rights of way, and other similar encumbrances that do not materially affect the use of the properties or assets subject thereto or affected thereby or otherwise materially impair business operations at such properties; and (e) minor defects and irregularities in title and encumbrances that do not materially impair the use thereof for the purposes for which they are held (collectively, the “Permitted Exceptions”). The Bank and each of its Subsidiaries as lessee has the right under valid and existing leases to occupy, use, possess and control any and all of the respective property leased by it, and each such lease is valid and without default thereunder by the lessee or, to the Knowledge of Seller, the lessor. To the Knowledge of the Seller, all buildings and structures owned by the Bank and each of its Subsidiaries lie wholly within the boundaries of the real property owned or validly leased by it, and do not encroach upon the property of, or otherwise conflict with the property rights of, any other Person.

Section 2.10 Loans; Loan Loss Reserve.

(a) Each loan, loan agreement, note, lease or other borrowing agreement by the Bank, any participation therein, and any guaranty, renewal or extension thereof (the “Bank Loans”) reflected as an asset on any of the Bank Financial Statements or reports filed with the Regulatory Authorities is evidenced by documentation that is customary and legally sufficient in all material respects and constitutes, to the Knowledge of Seller, the legal, valid and binding obligation of the obligor named therein, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally or equitable principles or doctrines; provided, however, any representation made in this Section 2.10(a) will not be deemed to be a representation of the collectability of such loans or similar items.

(b) All Bank Loans originated or purchased by the Bank were made or purchased in all respects in accordance with the policies of the board of directors of the Bank (or exceptions thereto consistent with past practice) and in the Ordinary Course of Business of the Bank. The Bank’s interest in all Bank Loans is free and clear of any security interest, lien, encumbrance or other charge, and the Bank has complied in all material respects with all Legal Requirements relating to such Bank Loans. There has been no default on, or forgiveness or waiver of, in whole or in part, any Bank Loan made to an executive officer or director of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or an entity controlled by an executive officer or director during the three (3) years immediately preceding the date hereof.

(c) The Bank is not a party to any Bank Loan: (i) under the terms of which the obligor is more than ninety (90) days delinquent in payment of principal or interest or in default of any other material provision as of the dates shown thereon or for which the Bank has discontinued the accrual of interest; (ii) that has been classified as “substandard,” “doubtful,” “loss,” “other loans especially mentioned” or any comparable classifications by the Bank; (iii) that has been listed on any “watch list” or similar internal report of the Bank; (iv) that has been the subject of any notice from any obligor of adverse environmental conditions potentially affecting the value of any collateral for such Bank Loan; (v) with respect to which the Bank is aware of potential violations of any Environmental Laws that may have occurred on the property serving as collateral for such Bank Loan or by any obligor of such Bank Loan; or (vi) that represents an extension of credit to an executive officer or director of the Bank or an entity controlled by an executive officer or director.

(d) The Bank’s allowance for loan and lease losses reflected in the Bank Financial Statements (including footnotes thereto) was determined and calculated on the basis of the Bank’s quarterly review and evaluation of the portfolio of Bank Loans under the requirements of GAAP and Legal Requirements, was established in a manner consistent with the Bank’s internal policies, and, in the reasonable judgment of the Bank, was adequate under the requirements of GAAP and all Legal Requirements to provide for possible losses, net of recoveries relating to Bank Loans previously charged-off, on outstanding Bank Loans.

(e) To Seller’s knowledge, none of the Bank Loans is subject to any material offset or claim of offset.

Section 2.11 Taxes.

(a) Seller and each of the Seller Subsidiaries have duly and timely filed all Tax Returns required to be filed by them on or before the Closing Date for all taxable or reporting periods ending on or before the Closing Date, and each such Tax Return is true, correct and complete in all material respects. Seller and each of the Seller Subsidiaries have paid, or made adequate provision for the payment of, all Taxes (whether or not reflected in Tax Returns as filed or to be filed) due and payable by Seller and each of the Seller Subsidiaries, or claimed to be due and payable by any Regulatory Authority, and are not delinquent in the payment of any Tax, except such Taxes as are being contested in good faith and as to which adequate reserves have been provided.

(b) There is no claim or assessment pending or, to the Knowledge of Seller, threatened against Seller and the Seller Subsidiaries for any Taxes that they owe. No audit, examination or investigation related to Taxes paid or payable by Seller and each of the Seller Subsidiaries is presently being conducted or, to the Knowledge of Seller, threatened by any Regulatory Authority. Neither Seller nor the Seller Subsidiaries are the beneficiary of any extension of time within which to file any Tax Return, and there are no liens for Taxes (other than Taxes not yet due and payable) upon any of Seller’s or the Seller Subsidiaries’ assets. Neither Seller nor the Seller Subsidiaries has executed an extension or waiver of any statute of limitations on the assessment or collection of any Tax that is currently in effect. None of Seller or any of the Seller Subsidiaries is a party to a tax sharing, tax allocation or similar agreement.

(c) Seller and each of the Seller Subsidiaries have delivered or made available to Purchaser true, correct and complete copies of all Tax Returns relating to income taxes and franchise taxes owed by Seller and the Seller Subsidiaries with respect to the last three (3) fiscal years.

(d) Seller and each of the Seller Subsidiaries have not engaged in any transaction that could affect the Tax liability for any Tax Returns not closed by applicable statute of limitations: (i) which is a “reportable transaction” or a “listed transaction” or (ii) a “significant purpose of which is the avoidance or evasion of U.S. federal income tax” within the meaning of Sections 6662, 6662A, 6011, 6111 or 6707A of the Code or of the regulations of the U.S. Department of the Treasury promulgated thereunder or pursuant to notices or other guidance published by the IRS (irrespective of the effective dates).

Section 2.12 Employee Benefits.

(a) Section 2.12(a) of Seller Disclosure Schedules includes a complete and correct list of each Employee Benefit Plan. Seller has delivered to Purchaser true and complete copies of the following with respect to each Employee Benefit Plan: (i) copies of each Employee Benefit Plan (including a written description where no formal plan document exists), and all related plan descriptions and other written communications provided to participants of Employee Benefit Plans; (ii) to the extent applicable, the last three (3) years’ annual reports on Form 5500, including all schedules thereto and the opinions of independent accountants; and (iii) the following documents:

(i) current contracts with third party administrators, actuaries, investment managers, consultants, insurers, and independent contractors;

(ii) all notices and other communications that were given by Seller, any Seller Subsidiary, or any Employee Benefit Plan to the IRS, the DOL or the PBGC pursuant to applicable law within the three (3) years preceding the date of this Agreement; and

(iii) all notices or other communications that were given by the IRS, the PBGC, or the DOL to Seller, any Seller Subsidiary, or any Employee Benefit Plan within the three (3) years preceding the date of this Agreement.

(b) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (including possible terminations of employment in connection therewith) will cause a payment, vesting, increase or acceleration of benefits or benefit entitlements under any Employee Benefit Plan or any other increase in the liabilities of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries under any Employee Benefit Plan as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No Employee Benefit Plan provides for payment of any amount which, considered in the aggregate with amounts payable pursuant to all other Employee Benefit Plans, would result in any amount being non-deductible for federal income tax purposes by virtue of Section 280G or 162(m) of the Code.

(c) Neither the Bank nor any of the Bank ERISA Affiliates sponsors, maintains, administers or contributes to, or has ever sponsored, maintained, administered or contributed to, or has or could have any liability with respect to, (i) any “multiemployer plan” (as defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA), or (ii) any “multiple employer welfare arrangement” (as defined in Section 3(40) of ERISA). Neither the Bank nor any of the Bank ERISA Affiliates sponsors, maintains, administers or contributes to, or has ever sponsored, maintained, administered or contributed to, or has, has had or could have any liability with respect to, any Employee Benefit Plan subject to Title IV of ERISA, Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code, or any tax-qualified “defined benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(35) of ERISA).

(d) Each Employee Benefit Plan that is intended to qualify under Section 401 and related provisions of the Code is the subject of a favorable determination letter from the IRS to the effect that it is so qualified under the Code and that its related funding instrument is tax exempt under Section 501 of the Code (or Seller and the Seller Subsidiaries are otherwise relying on an opinion or advisory letter issued to the preapproved plan sponsor), and there are no facts or circumstances that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the qualified status of any Employee Benefit Plan or the tax-exempt status of any related trust.

(e) Each Employee Benefit Plan is and has been administered in all material respects in compliance with its terms and with all applicable Legal Requirements.

(f) Other than routine claims for benefits made in the Ordinary Course of Business, there is no litigation, claim or assessment pending or, to Seller’s Knowledge, threatened by, on behalf of, or against any Employee Benefit Plan or against the administrators or trustees or other fiduciaries of any Employee Benefit Plan that alleges a violation of applicable state or federal law or violation of any Employee Benefit Plan document or related agreement.

(g) To the Knowledge of the Seller, no Employee Benefit Plan fiduciary or any other person has any liability to any Employee Benefit Plan participant, beneficiary or any other person under any provisions of ERISA or any other applicable law by reason of any action or failure to act in connection with any Employee Benefit Plan, including any liability by any reason of any payment of, or failure to pay, benefits or any other amounts or by reason of any

credit or failure to give credit for any benefits or rights. No party in interest (as defined in Code Section 4975(e)(2)) of any Employee Benefit Plan has engaged in any nonexempt prohibited transaction (as described in Code Section 4975(c) or ERISA Section 406) which could reasonably be expected to result in any liability to the Bank or any Bank Subsidiary.

(h) All accrued contributions and other payments to be made by the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries to any Employee Benefit Plan (i) through the date hereof have been made or reserves adequate for such purposes have been set aside therefor and reflected in the Bank Financial Statements and (ii) through the Closing Date will have been made or reserves adequate for such purposes will have been set aside therefore and reflected in Bank Financial Statements.

(i) There are no obligations under any Employee Benefit Plans to provide health or other welfare benefits to retirees or other former employees, directors, consultants or their dependents (other than rights under Section 4980B of the Code or Section 601 of ERISA or comparable state laws).

(j) No condition exists as a result of which the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries would have any liability, whether absolute or contingent, under any Employee Benefit Plan with respect to any misclassification of a person performing services for the Bank any of its Subsidiaries as an independent contractor rather than as an employee. All individuals participating in Employee Benefit Plans are in fact eligible and authorized to participate in such Employee Benefit Plan.

(k) Section 2.12(k) of Seller Disclosure Schedules includes the name of each Person who is or would be entitled pursuant to any Contract or Employee Benefit Plan to receive any payment from the Bank or any Subsidiary as a result of the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions (including any payment that is or would be due as a result of any actual or constructive termination of a Person’s employment or position following such consummation) and the maximum amount of such payment.

Section 2.13 Compliance with Legal Requirements. The Bank and each of its Subsidiaries hold all material licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and rights from all appropriate Regulatory Authorities necessary for the conduct of their respective businesses. The Bank and each of its Subsidiaries is, and at all times since January 1, 2014, has been, in compliance with each material Legal Requirement that is or was applicable to it or to the conduct or operation of its respective businesses or the ownership or use of any of its respective assets. Except for normal examinations conducted by a Regulatory Authority in the Ordinary Course of Business, no Regulatory Authority has initiated since January 1, 2014, or has pending any proceeding, enforcement action or investigation into the business, disclosures or operations of the Bank or any Subsidiary.

Since January 1, 2014, the Bank and its Subsidiaries have fully complied with, and there is no unresolved violation, criticism or exception by any Regulatory Authority with respect to, any report or statement relating to any examination or inspection of the Bank or any Subsidiary. Since January 1, 2014, there have been no formal or informal inquiries by, or disagreements or disputes with, any

Regulatory Authority with respect to the business, operations, policies or procedures of the Bank or any Subsidiary (other than normal examinations conducted by a Regulatory Authority in the Ordinary Course of Business). To the Knowledge of Seller, there has not been any event or occurrence since January 1, 2014, that would result in a determination that the Bank is not an eligible depository institution as defined in 12 C.F.R. § 303.2(r).

Section 2.14 Legal Proceedings; Orders.

(a) Since January 1, 2014, there have been, and currently are, no Proceedings or Orders pending, entered into or, to the Knowledge of Seller, threatened against or affecting the Bank or any Subsidiary or any of their respective assets, businesses, current or former directors or executive officers, or the Contemplated Transactions, that have not been fully satisfied or terminated. No officer, director, employee or agent of the Bank or Subsidiary is subject to any Order that prohibits such officer, director, employee or agent from engaging in or continuing any conduct, activity or practice relating to the businesses of the Bank or any Subsidiary as currently conducted.

(b) Neither the Bank nor any of its Subsidiaries: (i) is subject to any cease and desist or other Order or enforcement action issued by; (ii) is a party to any written agreement, consent agreement or memorandum of understanding with; (iii) is a party to any commitment letter or similar undertaking to; (iv) is subject to any order or directive by; (v) is subject to any supervisory letter from; (vi) has been ordered to pay any civil money penalty, which has not been paid, by; or (vii) has adopted any policies, procedures or board resolutions at the request of any Regulatory Authority that currently restricts in any material respect the conduct of its business, in any manner relates to its capital adequacy, restricts its ability to pay dividends or interest or limits in any material manner its credit or risk management policies, its management or its business. To the Knowledge of Seller, none of the foregoing has been threatened by any Regulatory Authority.

Section 2.17 No Defaults. Each Material Contract is in full force and effect and is valid and enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other Legal Requirements affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity. To the Knowledge of the Seller, no event has occurred or circumstance exists that (with or without notice or lapse of time) may contravene, conflict with or result in a violation or breach of, or give the Bank, any Subsidiary or other Person the right to declare a default or exercise any remedy under, or to accelerate the maturity or performance of, or to cancel, terminate or modify, any Material Contract. Except in the Ordinary Course of Business with respect to any Bank Loan, neither the Bank nor any of its Subsidiaries has given to or received from any other Person, at any time since January 1, 2013, any notice or other communication (whether oral or written) regarding any actual, alleged, possible or potential violation or breach of, or default under, any Material Contract, that has not been terminated or satisfied prior to the date of this Agreement.

Section 2.18 of Seller Disclosure Schedules lists all insurance policies and bonds owned or held by Seller or the Seller Subsidiaries with respect to business, operations, properties or assets (including bankers’ blanket bond but excluding insurance providing benefits for employees) of the Bank and its Subsidiaries, true, complete and correct copies of each of which have been made available to Purchaser. The Seller Subsidiaries are insured with reputable insurers against such risks and in such amounts as the management of Seller reasonably has determined to be prudent and consistent with industry practice. Seller and the Seller Subsidiaries, as applicable, are in compliance in all material respects with such insurance policies and are not in default under any of the terms thereof. Each such policy is outstanding and in full force and effect and, except for policies insuring against potential

liabilities of officers, directors and employees of the Seller Subsidiaries, the relevant Seller Subsidiary thereof is the sole beneficiary of such policies. All premiums and other payments due under any such policy have been paid, and all claims thereunder have been filed in due and timely fashion. Section 2.18 of Seller Disclosure Schedules lists and briefly describes all claims that have been filed under such insurance policies and bonds within the past five (5) years prior to the date of this Agreement that individually or in the aggregate exceed $25,000 and the current status of such claims.

None of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries has had any insurance policy or bond cancelled or nonrenewed by the issuer of the policy or bond within the past five (5) years.

Section 2.19 Compliance with Environmental Laws. There are no actions, suits, investigations, liabilities, inquiries, Proceedings or Orders involving the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective assets that are pending or, to the Knowledge of Seller, threatened, nor, to the Knowledge of Seller, is there any factual basis for any of the foregoing, as a result of any asserted failure of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries of, or any predecessor thereof, to comply with any Environmental Law. No environmental clearances are required for the conduct of the business of the Bank or the any of its Subsidiaries or the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions. To the Knowledge of Seller, neither the Bank nor any of its Subsidiaries is the owner of any interest in real estate on which any substances have been generated, used, stored, deposited, treated, recycled or disposed of, which substances if known to be present on, at or under such property, would require notification to any Regulatory Authority, clean up, removal or some other remedial action under any Environmental Law at such property or any impacted adjacent or down gradient property. To the Knowledge of Seller, the Bank and its Subsidiaries have complied in all respects with all Environmental Laws applicable to it and its business operations.

Section 2.20 Transactions with Affiliates. No officer or director of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries, any Immediate Family Member of any such Person, and no entity that any such Person “controls” within the meaning of Regulation O of the Federal Reserve has (a) any Bank Loan or any other agreement with Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or (b) any interest in any material property, real, personal or mixed, tangible or intangible, used in or pertaining to, the business of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries.

Section 2.21 Brokerage Commissions. None of Seller or its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective Representatives, has incurred any obligation or liability, contingent or otherwise, for brokerage or finders’ fees or agents’ commissions or other similar payment in connection with this Agreement.

Section 2.22 Approval Delays. To the Knowledge of Seller, there is no reason why the granting of any of the Requisite Regulatory Approvals would be denied or unduly delayed. The Bank’s most recent CRA rating was “satisfactory” or better.

Section 2.23 Labor Matters.

(a) There are no collective bargaining agreements or other labor union Contracts applicable to any employees of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries. There is no labor dispute, strike, work stoppage or lockout, or, to the Knowledge of Seller, threat thereof, by or with respect to any employees of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries, and there has been no labor dispute, strike, work stoppage or lockout in the previous three (3) years. There are no organizational efforts with respect to the formation of a collective bargaining unit presently being made, or to the Knowledge of Seller, threatened, involving employees of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries. Neither the Bank nor any of its Subsidiaries has engaged or is engaging in any unfair labor practice. The Bank and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements respecting employment and employment practices, terms and conditions of employment, wages, hours of work and occupational safety and health. No Proceeding asserting that the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries has committed an unfair labor practice (within the meaning of the National Labor Relations Act of 1935) or seeking to compel the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries to bargain with any labor organization as to wages or conditions of employment is pending or, to the Knowledge of Seller, threatened with respect to the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries before the National Labor Relations Board, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or any other Regulatory Authority.

(b) Neither the Bank nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to, or otherwise bound by, any consent decree with, or citation by, any Regulatory Authority relating to employees or employment practices. None of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their executive officers has received within the past three (3) years any written notice of intent by any Regulatory Authority responsible for the enforcement of labor or employment laws to conduct an investigation relating to the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries and no such investigation is in progress.

Section 2.24 Intellectual Property. Each of the Bank and its Subsidiaries has the unrestricted right and authority, and will have the unrestricted right and authority from and after the Effective Time, to use all patents, trademarks, copyrights, service marks, trade names or other intellectual property as is necessary to enable them to conduct and to continue to conduct all material phases of the businesses of the Bank and its Subsidiaries in the manner presently conducted by them, and, to the Knowledge of Seller, such use does not, and will not, conflict with, infringe on or violate any patent, trademark, copyright, service ▇▇▇▇, trade name or any other intellectual property right of any Person.

Section 2.25 Investments.

(a) Section 2.25(a) of Seller Disclosure Schedules includes a complete and correct list and description as of March 28, 2016, of: (i) all investment and debt securities, mortgage-backed and related securities, marketable equity securities and securities purchased under agreements to resell that are owned by the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries, other than, with respect to the Bank, in a fiduciary or agency capacity (the “Investment Securities”);

and (ii) any such Investment Securities that are pledged as collateral to another Person. The Bank and its Subsidiaries has good and marketable title to all Investment Securities held by it, free and clear of any liens, mortgages, security interests, encumbrances or charges, except for Permitted Exceptions and except to the extent such Investment Securities are pledged in the Ordinary Course of Business consistent with prudent banking practices to secure obligations of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries. The Investment Securities are valued on the books of the Bank and its Subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP.

(b) Except as may be imposed by applicable securities laws and restrictions that may exist for securities that are classified as “held to maturity,” none of the Investment Securities is subject to any restriction, whether contractual or statutory, that materially impairs the ability of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries to dispose of such investment at any time. With respect to all material repurchase agreements to which the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, has a valid, perfected first lien or security interest in the securities or other collateral securing each such repurchase agreement, and the value of the collateral securing each such repurchase agreement equals or exceeds the amount of the debt secured by such collateral under such agreement.

(c) None of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries has sold or otherwise disposed of any Investment Securities in a transaction in which the acquiror of such Investment Securities or other person has the right, either conditionally or absolutely, to require the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries to repurchase or otherwise reacquire any such Investment Securities.

(d) There are no interest rate swaps, caps, floors, option agreements or other interest rate risk management arrangements to which the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries is bound.

Section 2.26 Accuracy of Information Furnished; Only Representations. Neither any representation nor warranty of Seller in, nor any Seller Disclosure Schedule to, this Agreement contains any untrue statement of a material fact, or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. No notice given pursuant to Section 4.3 will contain any untrue statement or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein or in this Agreement, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Except for the representations and warranties contained in this Article II (including the related portions of the Seller Disclosure Schedules), neither Seller nor any other Person has made or makes any other express or implied representation or warranty, either written or oral, on behalf of Seller or any of the Seller Subsidiaries, including any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any information regarding the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries furnished or made available to Purchaser and its Representatives and any information, documents or material made available to Purchaser in due diligence, management presentations or in any other form in expectation of the transactions contemplated hereby or as to the future revenue, profitability or success of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries, or any representation or warranty arising from statute or otherwise in law.

ARTICLE 4

SELLER’S COVENANTS

Section 4.1 Access and Investigation.

(a) Subject to any applicable Legal Requirement, Purchaser and its Representatives shall, at all times during normal business hours and with reasonable advance notice, have such reasonable access to the facilities, operations, records and properties of the Bank and each of its Subsidiaries in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.1(a) as shall be necessary for the purpose of preparing for the operation of the Bank following the Effective Time. Purchaser and its Representatives may, during such period, make or cause to be made such reasonable investigation of the operations, records and properties of the Bank and its Subsidiaries and of their respective financial and legal conditions as Purchaser shall deem

necessary or advisable to familiarize itself with such records, properties and other matters; provided, however, that such access or investigation shall not interfere materially with the normal operations of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries. Upon request, Seller and each of its Subsidiaries will furnish Purchaser or its Representatives attorneys’ responses to auditors’ requests for information regarding Seller or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, and such financial and operating data and other information reasonably requested by Purchaser (provided, such disclosure would not result in the waiver by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries of any claim of attorney-client privilege). No investigation by Purchaser or any of its Representatives shall affect the representations and warranties made by Seller in this Agreement. This Section 4.1(a) shall not require the disclosure of any information the disclosure of which to Purchaser, in Seller’s reasonable judgment, would be prohibited by any applicable Legal Requirement or would result in the breach of any agreement with any third party in effect on the date of this Agreement.

Seller as of the date of this Agreement, or if Seller attains Knowledge of the occurrence after the date of this Agreement of any fact or condition that would (except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement) cause or constitute a breach of any such representation or warranty had such representation or warranty been made as of the time of occurrence or discovery of such fact or condition. If any such fact or condition would require any change in the Seller Disclosure Schedules if the Seller Disclosure Schedules were dated the date of the occurrence or discovery of any such fact or condition, Seller will promptly deliver to Purchaser a supplement to the Seller Disclosure Schedules specifying such change. During the same period, Seller will promptly notify Purchaser of the occurrence of any breach of any covenant of Seller in this Agreement or of the occurrence of any event that might reasonably be expected to make the satisfaction of the conditions in Article 8 impossible or unlikely.

Section 4.4 Other Offers.

(a) Seller will immediately cease and cause to be terminated any activities, discussions or negotiations conducted before the date of this Agreement with any Persons other than Purchaser with respect to any Acquisition Proposal. Seller will within two (2) Business Days advise Purchaser following receipt of any Acquisition Proposal and the substance thereof (including the identity of the Person making such Acquisition Proposal), and will keep Purchaser apprised of any related developments, discussions and negotiations (including the material terms and conditions of the Acquisition Proposal) on a reasonably current basis.

(b) Seller agrees that it will not, and will cause the respective Seller Subsidiaries and its and the Seller Subsidiaries’ officers, directors, agents, advisors and affiliates not to, initiate, solicit, encourage or knowingly facilitate inquiries or proposals with respect to, or engage in any negotiations concerning, or provide any confidential or nonpublic information or data to, or have any discussions with, any Person relating to, any Acquisition Proposal (other than contacting a Person for the sole purpose of seeking clarification of the terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal); provided that, in the event Seller receives an unsolicited bona fide Acquisition Proposal, from a Person other than Purchaser after the execution of this Agreement and prior to receipt of the Seller Shareholder Approval, and the Seller Board concludes in good faith that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal or would reasonably be likely to result in a Superior Proposal and, after considering the advice of outside counsel, that failure to take such actions would be reasonably likely to result in a violation of the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable law, Seller may: (i) furnish information with respect to it to such Person making such Acquisition Proposal pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement (subject to the requirement that any such information not previously provided to Purchaser shall be promptly furnished to Purchaser); (ii) participate in discussions or negotiations regarding such Acquisition Proposal; and (iii) terminate this Agreement in order to concurrently enter into an agreement with respect to such Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that Seller may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 4.4 unless and until (x) five (5) Business Days have elapsed following the delivery to the other party of a written notice of such determination by the Seller Board and, during such five (5) Business-Day period, the parties cooperate with one another with the intent of enabling the parties to engage in good faith negotiations so that the Contemplated Transactions may be effected, and (y) at the end of such five (5) Business-Day period, Seller continues, in good faith and after consultation with outside legal counsel and financial advisors, to believe that a Superior Proposal continues to exist.

Section 4.5 Seller Shareholder Approval. Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement and unless there has been a Seller Adverse Recommendation, Seller shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, take all lawful action to obtain, no later than twenty (20) days after the Agreement Date, the Seller Shareholder Approval by written consent (the “Written Consent”). Promptly following receipt of the Written Consent, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the Agreement Date, Seller shall deliver a copy of the Written Consent to Purchaser, together with a certificate executed on behalf of Seller by its corporate secretary certifying that such Written Consent reflects the Seller Shareholder Approval. Seller and Seller Board will recommend that its shareholders vote in favor of this Agreement, and Seller and the Seller Board will not withhold, withdraw, qualify or adversely modify (or publicly propose or resolve to withhold, withdraw, qualify or adversely modify) Seller Board’s recommendation to Seller’s shareholders that Seller’s shareholders vote in favor of the adoption and approval of this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions (a “Seller Adverse Recommendation”). However, if, prior to the time the Seller Shareholder Approval is obtained, the Seller Board, after consultation with outside counsel, determines in good faith that (a) an Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and (b) it is reasonably likely that to continue to recommend this Agreement to its shareholders in light of such Acquisition Proposal would result in a violation of its fiduciary duties under the IBCA, then the Seller Board may make a Seller Adverse Recommendation or publicly propose or resolve to make a Seller Adverse Recommendation.

Section 4.6 Information Provided to Purchaser. Seller agrees that the information concerning Seller or any of the Seller Subsidiaries that is provided or to be provided by Seller to Purchaser for inclusion in any documents to be filed with any Regulatory Authority in connection with the Contemplated Transactions will at the respective times such documents are filed, not be false or misleading with respect to any material fact, or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall have no responsibility for the truth or accuracy of any information with respect to Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates contained in any document submitted to, or other communication with, any Regulatory Authority.

Section 4.7 Employee Benefit Plans. At the request of Purchaser made not later than 30 calendar days before the Closing and to the extent allowable under the terms of the applicable Employee Benefit Plan, Seller will cause the Bank to take all appropriate action to amend or terminate, prior to the Effective Time, (i) any Employee Benefit Plan sponsored by the Bank or (ii) the Bank’s and the Bank Subsidiaries’ participation in any Employee Benefit Plan sponsored by Seller or another Seller Affiliate. Prior to the Effective Time, Seller shall cause the Bank to accrue the costs associated with any payments due under any Employee Benefit Plan, including without limitation any change of control or severance agreements, retention or stay bonus programs, or other similar arrangements, consistent with GAAP.

Section 4.8 Title to Real Estate.

(a) As soon as practical after the date hereof, but in any event no later than forty five (45) days after the date hereof, Seller shall obtain and deliver to Purchaser, with respect to all interests in real property owned by the Bank and each of its Subsidiaries, an owner’s preliminary report of title covering a date subsequent to the date hereof, issued by a title insurance company that is reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, showing fee simple title in the Bank or its Subsidiary in such real property with coverage over all standard exceptions and subject to no liens, mortgages, security interests, encumbrances or charges of any kind except for any Permitted Exceptions. The cost of obtaining any preliminary report of title discussed in this Section 4.8 shall be borne by Seller.

(b) At the Closing, Seller shall obtain at its own expense and deliver to Purchaser, with respect to all interests in real property owned by the Bank and each of its Subsidiaries, an owner’s title insurance policy, or an irrevocable commitment to issue such a policy to Purchaser at no expense to Purchaser, dated as of the later of the Closing Date and the actual date of recording of the deed for such property, on ALTA Policy Form 2006, if available (if not available, then on Form B-1992), with respect to all interests in real property owned by the Bank and its Subsidiaries, issued by a title insurance company selected by Purchaser, containing any endorsements reasonably required by Purchaser, insuring the fee simple estate of the Bank or its Subsidiary in the such properties in the amount not less than the greater of (i) the appraised value of the property and (ii) the value at which the Seller or the Bank currently carries the property on its books, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions.

Section 4.9 Surveys. Purchaser may, in its discretion, within forty-five (45) days after the date hereof, require Seller to provide, at the shared expense of Seller and Purchaser, and as soon as practicable prior to the Closing, a current American Land Title Association survey of any or all parcels of real property owned by the Bank and each of its Subsidiaries, other than property carried as OREO, disclosing no survey defects that would materially impair the use thereof for the purposes for which it is held or materially impair the value of such property.

Section 4.10 Environmental Investigation.

(a) Purchaser may, in its discretion, within forty-five (45) days after the date of this Agreement, require Seller to order, at Purchaser’s expense, a Phase I environmental site assessment to be delivered only to Purchaser for each parcel of real property in which the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries holds an interest (each a “Phase I Report”), conducted by an independent professional consultant reasonably acceptable to Purchaser to determine if any real property in which the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries holds any interest contains or gives evidence of any adverse environmental condition or any violations of Environmental Laws on any such property. If a Phase I Report discloses any violations or

adverse environmental conditions, or reports a reasonable suspicion thereof, then Purchaser may promptly obtain, at Purchaser’s expense, a Phase II environmental report with respect to any affected property which report shall contain an estimate of the cost of any remediation or other follow-up work that may be necessary to address those violations or conditions in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements (each a “Phase II Report,” and collectively referred to with the associated Phase I Report, an “Environmental Report”). Purchaser shall have no duty to act upon any information produced by an Environmental Report for the benefit of Seller or any of the Seller Subsidiaries or any other Person, but shall provide such information to Seller upon Seller’s request.

(b) Upon receipt of the estimate of the costs of all follow-up work to an Environmental Report, Purchaser and Seller shall attempt to agree upon a course of action for remediation of any adverse environmental condition or violation suspected, found to exist, or that would tend to be indicated by an Environmental Report. The estimated total cost for completing all necessary work plans or removal or remediation actions is referred to collectively as the “Remediation Cost.” If the aggregate Remediation Cost for the total parcels of property in which the Bank or its Subsidiaries holds an interest exceeds $750,000, Purchaser may, at its sole option, terminate this Agreement prior to Closing.

Section 4.11 Additional Accruals and Reserves. Upon mutual agreement of Seller and Purchaser, Seller will cause the Bank to establish such additional accruals and reserves as may be necessary to conform the Bank’s accounting and credit loss reserve practices and methods to those of Purchaser and Purchaser’s plans with respect to the conduct of the Bank’s business after the Contemplated Transactions; provided that Purchaser acknowledges that establishing such accruals and reserves and provision for such costs and expenses will not (a) be deemed to cause the Bank Financial Statements to have been prepared other than in accordance with GAAP, (b) constitute or result in a Material Adverse Effect with respect to Seller, or (c) constitute a breach of any provision of this Agreement by Seller.

Section 4.12 Indemnification; Insurance. Purchaser agrees that all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation by the Bank now existing in favor of each Person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof or who becomes prior to the Closing Date, an officer or director of the Bank, as provided in the articles of incorporation or by-laws of the Bank shall survive the Closing Date and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms for a period of not less than six years. The Bank shall, prior to the Closing, be permitted to and shall cause to be acquired and maintained for a period of at least six (6) years under the Bank’s existing director and officer liability insurance extended insurance coverage of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time with respect to those persons who are currently covered by such director and officer liability insurance (commonly referred to as “tail coverage”) on terms with respect to such coverage and amount substantially similar to the terms and conditions of the Bank’s director and officer liability insurance in effect as of the Agreement Date.

Section 4.13 Discussions with Employees or Customers. Except with the prior written consent of Purchaser, during the period from the date of this Agreement to the earlier of the one (1) year anniversary of the Closing Date or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to its terms, Seller will not, and will cause its Affiliates not to, solicit or cause to be solicited for employment any officer-level employee of the Bank. Any such consent is revocable at any time. For purposes of this paragraph, solicitation shall not include solicitation of employees: (a) who first solicit employment from Seller or its Affiliates; or (b) who are solicited (i) by advertising in periodicals of general circulation or (ii) by an employee search firm, so long as such firm was not directed or encouraged to solicit such employee or any other employees of the Bank. In addition, during the period from the date of this Agreement to the earlier of the one (1) year anniversary of the Closing Date or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to its terms, Seller will not, and will cause its Affiliates not to, knowingly solicit the customers of the Bank.

During the same period, Seller will promptly notify Purchaser of the occurrence of any breach of any covenant of Seller in this Agreement or of the occurrence of any event that might reasonably be expected to make the satisfaction of the conditions in Article 9 impossible or unlikely.

Section 6.1 Regulatory Approvals. Purchaser and Seller will cooperate and use all reasonable best efforts to as promptly as possible prepare, file, effect and obtain all Requisite Regulatory Approvals, and the parties will comply with the terms of such Requisite Regulatory Approvals. Each of Purchaser and Seller will have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable each will consult with the other, in each case subject to applicable Legal Requirements relating to the exchange of information, with respect to all substantive written information submitted to any Regulatory Authority in connection with the Requisite Regulatory Approvals. In exercising the foregoing right, each of the parties will act reasonably and as promptly as practicable.

other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with any filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of such other party or any of its Subsidiaries with or to any Regulatory Authority in connection with the Contemplated Transactions (but excluding any information contained therein regarding Purchaser and its business or operations for which confidential treatment has been or will be requested).

Section 6.2 Publicity. Neither Seller nor Purchaser shall issue or cause the publication of any press release or other public announcement with respect to, or otherwise make any public statement or, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, any disclosure of nonpublic information to a third party, concerning, the Contemplated Transactions without the prior consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of Purchaser, in the case of a proposed announcement, statement or disclosure by Seller, or Seller, in the case of a proposed announcement, statement or disclosure by Purchaser; provided, however, that Purchaser may, without the prior consent of Seller (but after prior consultation with Seller to the extent practicable under the circumstances), issue or cause the publication of any press release or other public announcement to the extent required by applicable Legal Requirements or by the NASDAQ Rules, and the Seller and officers of the Bank may respond in reasonable fashion to inquiries regarding the Contemplated Transactions by the press, employees or others after an initial announcement of the Contemplated Transactions is made in accordance with this Agreement; provided that Purchaser shall be informed of the nature of, and responses to, inquiries from sources external to Seller or the Bank.

From time to time prior to the Closing, Seller and Purchaser shall each have the right (but not the obligation) to supplement or amend the Disclosure Schedules with respect to any matter hereafter arising or of which it becomes aware after the date hereof (each a “Schedule Supplement”). Any disclosure in any such Schedule Supplement shall not be deemed to have cured any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, including for purposes

of termination rights, if any, contained in this Agreement or of determining whether or not the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 or Section 9.1, as applicable, have been satisfied; provided, however, that if the receiving party has the right to, but does not elect to, terminate this Agreement related to items set forth in such Schedule Supplement, and such party does not so terminate within ten (10) Business Days of its receipt of such Schedule Supplement, then such party shall be deemed to have irrevocably waived any right to terminate this Agreement with respect to such matter.

Section 6.5 Tax Matters.

(a) Without the prior written consent of the other party, no party or its Subsidiaries (and prior to the Closing, the Bank, its Affiliates and their respective Representatives) shall not, to the extent it may affect, or relate to, the other party, make, change or rescind any Tax election, amend any Tax Return or take any position on any Tax Return, take any action, omit to take any action or enter into any other transaction not consistent with past practice that would (i) in the case of Purchaser, have the effect of increasing the Tax liability or reducing any Tax asset of Seller or Seller Subsidiaries for the Pre-Closing Tax Period or (ii) in the case of Seller, have the effect of increasing the Tax liability or reducing any Tax asset of Purchaser or the Bank.

(b) Purchaser shall prepare, or caused to be prepared, all Tax Returns of the Bank and its Subsidiaries that are required to be filed after the Closing Date and cause the Bank and its Subsidiaries to remit all Taxes shown on such Tax Returns.

(c) Seller and Purchaser shall provide each other with such cooperation and information as either of them reasonably may request of the other in filing any Tax Return or in connection with any audit or other proceeding in respect of Taxes of the Bank. Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of relevant Tax Returns or portions thereof, together with accompany schedules, related work papers and documents relating to rulings or other determinations by tax authorities.

(d) Any and all existing Tax sharing agreements (whether written or not) binding upon the Bank shall be terminated as of the Closing Date. After such date neither the Bank, Seller nor any of Seller’s Affiliates and their respective Representatives shall have any further rights or liabilities thereunder.

Section 6.6 Employees and Employee Benefits.

(a) All individuals employed by the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Closing (“Covered Employees”) shall automatically become employees of Purchaser as of the Closing for the purposes of the Purchaser Benefit Plans and shall receive credit for unused vacation time and their years of service with the Bank in calculating their vacation time under Purchaser’s applicable paid time

off policies. Effective as of the Closing, Purchaser shall maintain employee benefit plans and compensation opportunities for the benefit of Covered Employees that provide employee benefits and compensation opportunities that, in the aggregate, are substantially comparable to the employee benefits and compensation opportunities that are made available to similarly-situated employees of Purchaser under the Purchaser Benefit Plans; provided, however, that: (i) in no event shall any Covered Employee be eligible to participate in any closed or frozen Purchaser Benefit Plan; (ii) until such time as Purchaser shall cause the Covered Employees to participate in the Purchaser Benefit Plans, a Covered Employee’s continued participation in the corresponding Employee Benefit Plans for which the Bank or a Bank subsidiary is the plan sponsor shall be deemed to satisfy the foregoing provisions of this sentence (it being understood that participation in the Purchaser Benefit Plans may commence at different times with respect to each Purchaser Benefit Plan); and (iii) if any Covered Employee is terminated by Purchaser without cause on or before the first anniversary of the Closing and is not entitled to contractual severance or change in control benefits, such Covered Employee shall be provided with severance in an amount equal to one (1) week’s base salary, as in effect immediately prior to such termination, for each whole year of continuous service with the Bank and its Subsidiaries and their respective predecessors, including any service after the Closing.

(b) For all purposes (other than purposes of benefit accruals under any defined-benefit type retirement plan) under the Purchaser Benefit Plans providing benefits to the Covered Employees (the “New Plans”), each Covered Employee shall be credited with his or her years of service with the Bank and its Subsidiaries and their respective predecessors to the same extent as such Covered Employee was entitled to credit for such service under any applicable Employee Benefit Plan in which such Covered Employee participated or was eligible to participate immediately prior to the Transition Date; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits with respect to the same period of service.

(c) In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, as of the Transition Date, Purchaser shall provide that: (i) each Covered Employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all New Plans to the extent coverage under such New Plan is similar in type to an applicable Employee Benefit Plan in which such Covered Employee was participating immediately prior to the Transition Date (such Employee Benefit Plans prior to the Transition Date collectively, the “Old Plans”); (ii) for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical, vision or similar benefits to any Covered Employee, all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such New Plan shall be waived for such Covered Employee and his or her covered dependents, unless such conditions would not have been waived under the Old Plan in which such Covered Employee, as applicable, participated or was eligible to participate immediately prior to the Transition Date; and (iii) any eligible expenses incurred by such Covered Employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the Old Plan ending on the Transition Date shall be taken into account under such New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Covered Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Plan.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 11.1 Governing Law.

Neither party to this Agreement may assign any of its rights under this Agreement (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other party. Any purported assignment in contravention hereof shall be null and void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement and every representation, warranty, covenant, agreement and provision hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Nothing expressed or referred to in this Agreement will be construed to give any Person other than the parties to this Agreement any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement. The representations and warranties in this Agreement are the product of negotiations among the parties hereto and are for the sole benefit of the parties. Any inaccuracies in such representations and warranties are subject to waiver by the parties hereto in accordance with Section 11.4 without notice or liability to any other Person. In some instances, the representations and warranties in this Agreement may represent an allocation among the parties hereto of risks associated with particular matters regardless of the knowledge of any of the parties hereto. Consequently, persons other than the parties may not rely upon the representations and warranties in this Agreement as characterizations of actual facts or circumstances as of the date of this Agreement or as of any other date.

Section 11.3 Modification. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented by the parties at any time before or after Seller Shareholder Approval is obtained; provided, however, that after Seller Shareholder Approval is obtained, there may not be, without further approval of Seller’s shareholders, any amendment of this Agreement that requires further approval under applicable Legal Requirements.

Any agreement on the part of a party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such party. Neither the failure nor any delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. Except as provided in Article 10, the rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Legal

Requirements: (x) no claim or right arising out of this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement can be discharged by one party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in writing signed by the other party; (y) no waiver that may be given by a party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given; and (z) no notice to or demand on one party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of such party or of the right of the party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.
