ARTICLE VI

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLERS AND THE

BENEFICIAL OWNERS FOR THEMSELVES

Each Seller and each Seller’s Beneficial Owner(s) (each, collectively an “Exchangor”) hereby, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to the Buyer as follows:

6.1 No Registration. Such Exchangor understands that the Exchange Shares, have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act.

6.2 Investment Intent. Such Exchangor is acquiring the Exchange Shares for investment for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof, and that such Exchangor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. Such Exchangor further represents that it does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person or entity to sell, transfer or grant participation to such person or entity or to any third person or entity with respect to any of the Exchange Shares.

6.3 Investment Experience. Such Exchangor has substantial experience in evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of securities in companies similar to the Buyer and its Subsidiary and acknowledges that such Exchangor, can protect its own interests. Such Exchangor or its Purchaser Representative has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters so that such Exchangor is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Buyer.

6.4 Investment Risk. Such Exchangor understands and acknowledges that an investment in the Buyer involves substantial risks. Such Exchangor can bear the economic risk of such Exchangor’s investment and is able, without impairing such Exchangor’s financial condition, to hold the Exchange Shares for an indefinite period of time and to suffer a complete loss of such Exchangor’s investment.

6.5 Access to Data. Such Exchangor has had an opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, the officers of the Buyer concerning this Agreement, the exhibits and schedules attached hereto and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as well as the Buyer’s and its Subsidiary’s business, management and financial affairs, which questions were answered to its satisfaction. The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify the representations and warranties of the Buyer in Section 3 of this Agreement or the right of the Beneficial Owners to rely thereon.

6.6 Accredited Investor. Such Exchangor is either an existing shareholder of the Buyer or an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D, Rule 501(a), promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act and shall submit to the Buyer such further assurances of such status as may be reasonably requested by the Buyer except as otherwise indicated in the subscription agreement executed by such Exchangor.

6.8 Rule 144 and Stock Transfer Restrictions. Such Exchangor acknowledges that the Exchange Shares must be (i) held for at least two years from the date of issuance under the Utah Financial Institutions Act and regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) held under federal and state securities laws for an indefinite period of time until such shares are registered or can be traded pursuant to an exemption from registration. Such Exchangor is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act which permit limited resale of shares purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including among other things, the existence of a public market for the shares, the availability of certain current public information about the Buyer, the resale occurring not less than one year after a party has purchased and paid for the security to be sold, the sale being effected through a “broker’s transaction” or in transactions directly with a “market maker” and the number of shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations. Such Exchangor understands that the current public information referred to above is not now available and the Buyer has no present plans to make such information available. Such Exchangor acknowledges and understands that the Buyer may not be satisfying the current public information requirement of Rule 144 at the time the Exchangor wishes to sell the Exchange Shares and that, in such event, the Exchangor may be precluded from selling such securities under Rule 144, even if the other requirements of Rule 144 have been satisfied. Such Exchangor acknowledges that, in the event all of the requirements of Rule 144 are not met, registration under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration will be required for any disposition of the Exchange Shares. Such Exchangor understands that, although Rule 144 is not exclusive, the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell restricted securities received in a private offering other than in a registered offering or pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales and that such persons and the brokers who participate in the transactions do so at their own risk.

6.9 No Public Market. Such Exchangor understands and acknowledges that no public market now exists for any of the securities issued by the Buyer and that the Buyer has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Buyer’s securities.

(b) The Agreement, when executed and delivered by the Exchangor, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Exchangor, enforceable in accordance with their terms except: (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies or by general principles of equity.

(c) No consent, approval, authorization, order, filing, registration or qualification of or with any court, governmental authority or third person is required to be obtained by the Exchangor in connection with the execution and delivery of the Agreements by the Exchangor or the performance of the Exchangor’s obligations hereunder or thereunder.

6.11 Brokers or Finders. Such Exchangor has not engaged any brokers, finders or agents, and neither the Buyer nor any other Exchangor has, nor will, incur, directly or indirectly, as a result of any action taken by the Exchangor, any liability for brokerage or finders’ fees or agents’ commissions or any similar charges in connection with the Agreements.

Such Exchangor has reviewed with its own tax advisors the U.S. federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by the Agreements. With respect to such matters, such Exchangor relies solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Buyer or any of its agents, written or oral. The Exchangor understands that it (and not the Buyer) shall be responsible for its own tax liability that may arise as a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by the Agreements.

(iii) a claim by any person other than the Beneficial Owners or the Sellers who are not natural persons that they are entitled to any of the Exchange Shares or that the transfer of any part of the 10% Membership Interest to Buyer was not properly authorized by the Sellers or is defective in any manner.

(c) In addition to the foregoing, the Company, Sellers and Beneficial Owners’ (the “Selling Parties”) obligation to indemnify Buyer under Section 10.2(a), and Buyer’s obligation to indemnify the Selling Parties under Section 10.3, shall not exceed the amount equal to number of Exchange Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement, multiplied by the per share book value of the shares of stock of Buyer’s subsidiary, FinWise Bank, as set forth on the most recent Call Report filed by FinWise Bank prior to the Closing (the “FinWise Book Value”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer agrees not to seek indemnification from an Exchangor who, at Closing, owned less than 5% of the Company in an amount not to exceed that value of the number of Exchange Shares received by such individual Exchangor multiplied by the FinWise Book Value.

(d) Further, the obligation of any individual Exchangor to indemnify Buyer under Section 10.2(b), and the Buyer’s obligation to indemnify an individual Exchangor, shall not exceed the amount equal to the number of Exchange Shares received by the Exchangor multiplied by the FinWise Book Value. For purposes of Section 10.6 (c) and (d), any entity that is a Seller and its Beneficial Owner(s) shall be treated as a single Exchangor.

(e) In calculating the amount of losses to the Buyer or the Selling Parties under Section 10.2 and Section 10.3 such losses shall be reduced by any recovery from any third party (including insurance proceeds) as a result of the facts or circumstances giving rise to the losses.
