(2) the Loan Purchase Amount for each Purchased Loan;

(3) the Net Book Value of the Personal Property, the improvements associated with the Branch and the Leased Premises, in each case as of the Effective Time; and

(1) the Deposit Liabilities and the terms and agreements relating thereto (including all of Seller’s related responsibilities with respect to (A) the abandoned property laws of any state, (B) any legal process that is served on Seller on or before the Closing Date with respect to claims against or for the Deposit Liabilities that does not exceed the amount of the applicable Assumed Deposit(s) (except to the extent attributable to any act or omission taken or omitted to be taken by Seller prior to the Effective Time in violation of an applicable contract or law), and (C) any other applicable laws (except to the extent attributable to any act or omission taken or omitted to be taken by Seller prior to the Effective Time in violation of any such laws));

(2) all of Seller’s duties, obligations and liabilities relating to the Personal Property and the Personal Property Leases;

(3) all of Seller’s duties, obligations and liabilities relating to the Branch Lease and the Leased Premises;

(4) [intentionally omitted];

(5) all of Seller’s duties, obligations and liabilities relating to the Purchased Loans and the servicing thereof; and

(6) all of Seller’s duties, obligations and liabilities relating to the Assumed Contracts; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not, except pursuant to a subsequent

assignment to which Purchaser is a party, assume any liabilities, duties or obligations arising under any Assumed Contract that is not assigned to Purchaser at the Closing due to the failure to receive a necessary consent or otherwise.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Purchaser shall not assume any duties, obligations or liabilities of Seller of any kind, whether known, unknown, contingent or otherwise, other than the Transferred Liabilities, including any duty, obligation or liability (1) not directly relating to the Transferred Assets, (2) attributable to any acts or omissions to act taken or omitted to be taken by or on behalf of Seller (or any of its Affiliates) prior to the Effective Time in violation of any applicable laws, contracts or legal or fiduciary duties, (3) attributable to any actions, causes of action, claims, suits or proceedings or violations of law or regulation attributable to any acts or omissions to act taken or omitted to be taken by Seller (or any of its affiliates or direct or indirect Subsidiaries), (4) for Taxes relating to the Transferred Assets or the Transferred Liabilities for taxable periods (or portions thereof) ending on or prior to the Closing Date, (5) relating to the Employees in any respect, including the employment or termination of any Employee, in the case of any Employee relating, to any period prior to the time such Employee becomes employed by Purchaser, and Losses with respect to the Benefit Plans, ERISA, COBRA or the WARN Act, whether arising before or after the Effective Time, relating to the employment of the Employees by Seller or its Affiliates and their respective predecessors, (6) for Excluded ▇▇▇/ ▇▇▇▇▇ Plan Deposits, (7) any deposit account designated as closed status or any accounts with a zero balance for the period 45 days prior to the Closing Date, (8) any liability associated with traveler’s checks, cashier’s checks, or other official bank checks issued by Seller prior to the Closing Date, (9) arising from circumstances, events or conditions prior to the Effective Time and not expressly assumed hereunder, or (10) deposit liabilities that, by law or contract, cannot either be transferred by Seller or assumed by Purchaser (collectively, the “EXCLUDED LIABILITIES”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is not the intention that the assumption by Purchaser of the Transferred Liabilities shall in any way enlarge the rights of any third parties relating thereto. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent any party hereto from contesting matters relating to the Transferred Liabilities with any third party obligee. From and after the Effective Time, (A) Purchaser shall have complete control over the payment, settlement or other disposition of the Transferred Liabilities and the right to commence, control and conduct all negotiations and proceedings with respect thereto and (B) Seller shall have complete control over the payment, settlement or other disposition of the Excluded Liabilities and the right to commence, control and conduct all negotiations and proceedings with respect thereto. Except as otherwise provided in Article IV or any transition plan entered into thereunder, (i) Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser of any claim made against it with respect to the Transferred Liabilities or the Transferred Assets and shall not voluntarily make any payment of, settle or offer to settle, or consent or compromise or admit liability with respect to, any Transferred Liabilities or Transferred Assets and (ii) Purchaser shall promptly notify Seller of any claim made against it with respect to the Excluded Liabilities or the Excluded Assets and shall not voluntarily make any payment of, settle or offer to settle, or consent or compromise or admit liability with respect to, any Excluded Liabilities or Excluded Assets.

(d) All excise, sales, use, stamp, documentary and transfer Taxes and similar fees and charges (collectively, “TRANSFER TAXES”) that are payable or that arise as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by Purchaser, and Purchaser shall indemnify and hold Seller and its Affiliates harmless from and against any such Transfer Taxes.

(e) Seller shall prepare, in consultation with Purchaser, a Balance Sheet of Transferred Assets and Transferred Liabilities (the “PRE-CLOSING BALANCE SHEET”) as of the close of business on the day immediately prior to the Closing Date (the “PRE-CLOSING BALANCE SHEET DATE”). Seller agrees to pay to Purchaser at the Closing, in immediately available funds, the excess amount, if any, of the amount of Deposit Liabilities assumed by Purchaser pursuant to paragraph (b) above as reflected by the Pre-Closing Balance Sheet, over the aggregate Purchase Price computed in accordance with paragraph (a) above, as reflected by the Pre-Closing Balance Sheet. Purchaser agrees to pay Seller at the Closing, in immediately available funds, the excess amount, if any, of the aggregate Purchase Price computed in accordance with paragraph (a) above, as reflected by the Pre-Closing Balance Sheet, over the amount of Deposit Liabilities assumed by Purchaser pursuant to paragraph (b) above as reflected by the Pre-Closing Balance Sheet. All amounts paid at the Closing shall be subject to subsequent adjustment based on the Post-Closing Balance Sheet.

(f) Seller and Purchaser agree to cooperate in good faith to determine a reasonable allocation of the total consideration paid for the Transferred Assets, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.2 and Section 3.3, in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code. On or prior to the date ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall provide to Seller Purchaser’s proposed allocation of the total consideration paid for the Transferred Assets. Within thirty (30) days after the receipt of such proposed allocation, Seller shall propose to Purchaser any changes to such allocation in writing or otherwise shall be deemed to have agreed with such allocation. Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate in good faith to mutually agree to such allocation and shall reduce such agreement to writing, including jointly and properly executing completed Internal Revenue Service Form 8594, and any other forms or statements required by the Code (or state or local Tax law), Treasury Regulations or the Internal Revenue Service or other Governmental Authority, together with any and all attachments required to be filed therewith. Seller and Purchaser shall file timely any such forms and statements with the Internal Revenue Service or other Governmental Authority. In the event that Seller objects to Purchaser’s proposed allocation in writing within such thirty (30) day period and Purchaser and Seller are unable to reach an agreement within thirty (30) days after Purchaser’s receipt of such written objection, the dispute shall be referred to a nationally recognized accounting firm mutually acceptable to Seller and Purchaser for resolution, and the determination of such firm shall be binding upon Seller and Purchaser and their respective Affiliates and shall constitute the agreed allocation, with Seller and Purchaser each bearing one-half of the costs, fees and expenses of such firm. The agreed allocation shall be appropriately adjusted to take into account any subsequent payments under this Agreement and any other subsequent events required to be taken into account under Section 1060 of the Code. Seller and Purchaser shall not file any Tax Return or other documents or otherwise take any position with respect to Taxes that is inconsistent with the allocation determined pursuant to this Section 2.2(f); provided, however, that neither Seller nor Purchaser shall be obligated to litigate any challenge to such allocation by any Governmental Authority. Seller and Purchaser shall promptly inform one another of any challenge by any Governmental Authority to any allocation made pursuant to this Section 2.2(f) and agree to consult with and keep one another informed with respect to the state of, and any discussion, proposal or submission with respect to, such challenge.

SECTION 2.3. Proration; Other Closing Date Adjustments.

(a) Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, it is the intention of the parties that Seller shall operate the Branch Banking Operations, hold the Transferred Assets and retain the Transferred Liabilities for its own account until the Effective Time, and the Branch Banking Operations shall be operated, the Transferred Assets shall be held and the Transferred Liabilities shall be assumed for Purchaser’s account as of and after the Effective Time. Thus, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, items of income and expense, as defined herein, shall be prorated as of the Effective Time, and settled between Seller and Purchaser on and as of the Closing Date, whether or not such adjustment would normally be made as of such time. Items of proration will be handled at Closing as an adjustment to the Purchase Price unless otherwise agreed by the parties hereto. In furtherance of the foregoing, Purchaser shall promptly forward to Seller complete and accurate copies of all invoices, billing statements and similar documents received by Purchaser after the Effective Time and relating to the Branch Banking Operations conducted prior to the Effective Time, and Seller shall promptly forward to Purchaser complete and accurate copies of all invoices and billing statements received by Seller relating to the Branch Banking Operations conducted after the Effective Time. To the extent the exact amounts of any real or personal property Taxes or other items to be prorated are not known on the Closing Date, the parties shall make reasonable estimates of such Taxes or other items for purposes of making prorations at Closing and shall thereafter adjust the prorations as promptly as practicable after such exact amounts are finally ascertained.

(b) For purposes hereof, items of proration and other adjustments shall include: (1) rental payments under the Branch Lease; (2) personal and real property Taxes and assessments arising from the Leased Premises or otherwise from the Branch Banking Operations (determined by assuming that the taxable year or period ended at the Effective Time); (3) FDIC deposit insurance assessments; and (4) prepaid expenses and items and accrued but unpaid liabilities a portion of which is attributable to periods after the Effective Time (it being understood that Purchaser shall have no liability for any accrued but unpaid liabilities attributable to Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities).

SECTION 2.4. Environmental Matters.

Seller has made available to Purchaser complete and accurate copies of all environmental studies, reports and audits in Seller’s or its Affiliates’ possession related to the Leased Premises (the “EXISTING ENVIRONMENTAL REPORTS”).

SECTION 2.5. Assumed Contracts.

Attached as Schedule 2.5 is a list of all service or similar contracts in effect as of the date hereof that exclusively relate to the Leased Premises or the Branch Banking Operations subject hereto that are being assumed by Purchaser (and that are capable of assignment in connection herewith) (“ASSUMED CONTRACTS”). Subject to the proration requirements of Section 2.3, Purchaser shall assume all such Assumed Contracts as of the Effective Time.

SECTION 2.6. Books and Records.

(a) On the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser all files, documents and records in Seller’s possession that pertain to the Transferred Assets and Transferred Liabilities and are utilized by Seller to administer, monitor, evidence or record information respecting the business or conduct of the Branch Banking Operations, including all such files, documents and records maintained on electronic or magnetic media in the electronic data base system of Seller that are reasonably accessible on a branch-by-branch basis, and, to the extent permitted by law, including copies of all personnel files relating to the Hired Employees and, to the extent permitted by law, including all look back records related to the Assumed Deposits and Purchased Loans, all records related to Bank Secrecy Act and anti-money laundering monitoring and records relating to the Bank Secrecy Act and anti-money laundering tool, Yellow Hammer, and its related records. If any personnel file, or portion thereof, relating to any such employee is not permitted by law to be transferred pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, Seller shall promptly advise Purchaser of such prohibition and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, if any Hired Employee executes a waiver mutually reasonably satisfactory to Seller and Purchaser authorizing such delivery, Seller shall promptly provide copies of the entire personnel file applicable to such employee. Following the Closing Date, Seller shall preserve and safely keep all files not transferred to Purchaser related to the Transferred Assets and Transferred Liabilities for as long as may be required by applicable law. Following Closing, upon receipt of a written request from Purchaser, Seller shall provide research and account history services related to any such records for the Purchaser and shall provide to Purchaser an account history on tape with respect to any Assumed Deposits, Transferred Assets, and Transferred Liabilities. At Purchaser’s expense, Seller shall promptly provide such copies of such files, documents and records relating to the Transferred Assets and Transferred Liabilities in its possession as Purchaser shall reasonably request. Purchaser agrees, at Seller’s expense, to return to Seller all files, documents and records contained on any Leased Premises that, to Purchaser’s knowledge, do not relate to the Transferred Assets and Transferred Liabilities.

(b) As to any file, document, or record, as of the time of transfer and until any return thereof to Seller, Purchaser shall become responsible for maintaining such file, document or record transferred to it pursuant hereto. Purchaser will preserve and hold such files, documents and records in safekeeping as required by applicable law and in accordance with Purchaser’s customary practices.

(c) After the Effective Time, Purchaser will permit Seller and its representatives, at reasonable times and upon reasonable written notice, at Seller’s sole cost and expense except as set forth in Section 2.6(d), to examine, inspect, copy and reproduce any such files, documents or records, and to access any Employees that may then be employed by Purchaser, to the extent reasonably required in connection with any third party claim, action, litigation or other proceeding involving Seller or its Affiliates or in connection with any legal obligation owed by Seller or its Affiliates to any present or former depositor or other customer or any Governmental Authority, including for purposes of preparing regulatory reports and returns and Tax Returns. After the Effective Time, Seller will permit Purchaser and its representatives, at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense except as set forth in Section 2.6(d), to examine, inspect, copy and reproduce files, documents or records retained by Seller or its Affiliates regarding the Transferred Assets and Transferred Liabilities to the extent

reasonably required in connection with any third party claim, action, litigation or other proceeding involving Purchaser or its Affiliates or in connection with any legal obligation owed by Purchaser or its Affiliates to any present or former depositor or other customer or any Governmental Authority, including for purposes of preparing regulatory reports and returns and Tax Returns.

(d) For a period of six (6) months after the Effective Time, the party providing copies of records hereunder shall do so without charge, and thereafter it may charge its customary rate for providing such copies.

Purchaser of notice of such disagreement, such items shall be determined by a nationally-recognized independent accounting firm selected by mutual agreement between Seller and Purchaser. Such accounting firm shall be instructed to resolve the disputed items within ten (10) Business Days of engagement, to the extent reasonably practicable. The determination of such accounting firm shall be final and binding on the parties hereto. The fees of any such accounting firm shall be divided equally between Seller and Purchaser.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.3, if at any time within ninety (90) days after the Post-Closing Balance Sheet Delivery Date either party discovers an error in the calculation of the Post-Closing Balance Sheet that resulted in the Purchase Price actually paid, as adjusted pursuant to this Section 3.3 (“ORIGINAL PRICE”), being at least $50,000, individually or in the aggregate with all such errors, more or less than the Purchase Price would have been but for such error (“REVISED PRICE”), and notifies the other party thereof, the parties agree to cooperate in good faith to correct the error.

contemplated by Section 4.2, Purchaser will send appropriate notice to all customers having accounts constituting Assumed Deposits the terms of which provide for direct debit of such accounts by third parties, instructing such customers concerning transfer of customer direct debit authorizations from Seller to Purchaser. Seller shall cooperate in soliciting the transfer of such authorizations. Such notice shall be in a form reasonably agreed to by the parties acting in good faith. In connection with their respective obligations under Section 4.1, Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate in good faith (a) to determine the method and timing for forwarding to Purchaser and settling all direct debits relating to accounts constituting Assumed Deposits, as well as such other matters relating thereto as may be necessary or advisable for purposes of assuring an orderly transition of ownership of the Deposit Liabilities to Purchaser hereunder and (b) to determine the method and timing for forwarding to Seller and settling all direct debits relating to deposit accounts of Seller that are not Assumed Deposits, but which transactions are nonetheless routed to Purchaser as a result of the transfer to Purchaser of the routing and transit numbers or for other reasons, as well as such other matters relating thereto as may be necessary or advisable for purposes of assuring the orderly processing of transactions routed to Purchaser that relate to deposit accounts of Seller that are not Deposits.

SECTION 4.5. Interest Reporting and Withholding.

(a) Unless otherwise agreed to by the parties, Seller will report to applicable Tax authorities and holders of Assumed Deposits, with respect to the period from January 1 of the year in which the Closing occurs through the Closing Date, all interest (including for purposes hereof dividends and other distributions with respect to money market accounts) credited to, withheld from and any early withdrawal penalties imposed upon the Assumed Deposits. Purchaser will report to the applicable Tax authorities and holders of Assumed Deposits, with respect to all periods from the day after the Closing Date, all such interest credited to, withheld from and early withdrawal penalties imposed upon such Assumed Deposits. Any amounts required by any Governmental Authority to be withheld from any of the Assumed Deposits through the Closing Date will be withheld by Seller in accordance with applicable law or appropriate notice from any Governmental Authority and will be remitted by Seller to the appropriate agency on or prior to the applicable due date. Any such withholding required to be made subsequent to the Closing Date shall be withheld by Purchaser in accordance with applicable law or the appropriate notice from any Governmental Authority and will be remitted by Purchaser to the appropriate agency on or prior to the applicable due date. Promptly after the Closing Date, but in no event later than the date Purchaser is obligated to remit such amounts to the applicable Governmental Authority, Seller will pay to Purchaser that portion of any sums theretofore withheld by Seller from any Assumed Deposits that are required to be remitted by Purchaser pursuant to the foregoing and shall directly remit to the applicable Governmental Authority that portion of any such sums that are required to be remitted by Seller.

(b) Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, Seller shall be responsible for delivering to payees all Internal Revenue Service notices with respect to information reporting and tax identification numbers required to be delivered through the Closing Date with respect to the Assumed Deposits, and Purchaser shall be responsible for delivering to payees all such notices required to be delivered following the Closing Date with respect to the Assumed Deposits.

Seller will (or will authorize ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ to) provide Purchaser with a list of ATM access/debit cards (including any point-of-sale cards) issued by Seller to depositors of any Assumed Deposits, and all data processing records in a format specified by Purchaser. Files shall contain all addresses therefor and all related information required to support an automated conversion, in each case in sufficient time for the Conversion and card reissue. At the Closing, Seller will provide Purchaser with a revised data processing record through the Closing, and, within thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date anticipated by the parties, all customer PINs or algorithms or logic used to generate PINs. At least ten (10) calendar days prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall notify holders of ATM access/debit cards relating to Assumed Deposits that all such cards issued by the Seller will be void as of the Closing Date, and at least five (5) days prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser will provide each holder of an ATM access/debit card issued by Seller relating to an Assumed Deposit with a new Purchaser ATM access/debit card, with instructions to utilize Purchaser’s ATM access/debit card as of the Closing Date, and at least fifty (50) checks on forms of Purchaser, with instructions to utilize Purchaser’s checks and to destroy unused checks of Seller as of the Closing Date.

Seller shall take such actions as may be mutually agreed with Purchaser with respect to any Personal Property Lease or the Branch Lease that is currently in effect but that would otherwise expire on or prior to the Closing (including renewing or extending such Personal Property Lease or the Branch Lease on such terms and conditions as Seller and Purchaser may mutually agree). In the event that Seller and Purchaser are unable to reach agreement pursuant to the preceding sentence with respect to any Personal Property Lease or the Branch Lease, Seller shall use reasonable best efforts to renew or extend on a month-to-month basis any such Personal Property Lease or the Branch Lease; provided, however, that no such renewal or extension shall be for a fixed term exceeding one year without the prior written consent of Purchaser, and Seller shall consult with Purchaser prior to renewing or extending the Branch Lease or any material Personal Property Lease. Seller shall not cancel, terminate or amend (other than as provided in the preceding sentence relating to extensions) any such Personal Property Lease or the Branch Lease without the prior written consent of Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall use reasonable best efforts to amend any Personal Property Leases in order to transfer the related Personal Property to Purchaser pursuant to Article II if such amendment is required to effect such transfer.

SECTION 4.8. Notices to Obligors on Purchased Loans.

(a) Purchaser shall no later than fifteen (15) days prior to the anticipated Closing Date prepare and transmit, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, to each obligor on each Purchased Loan, a notice in a form satisfying all legal requirements to the effect that the Purchased Loan will be transferred to Purchaser. To the extent that Purchaser’s notice pursuant to the prior sentence shall be legally insufficient, Seller agrees, at Purchaser’s sole expense, to provide all Purchased Loan obligors with all required notices of the assignment and transfer of the Purchased Loans.

(b) To the extent that any of the Purchased Loans transferred from Seller to Purchaser involve a transfer of servicing as defined and governed by the Real Estate Settlement Procedure Act (12 U.S.C. Section 2601 et seq.), Seller and Purchaser will jointly coordinate any appropriate required customer notices.

SECTION 4.9. Loan Payments.

After the Effective Time, Seller shall forward to Purchaser any payments received by Seller with respect to the Purchased Loans within one Business Day after such payment is received by Seller. Seller shall forward such payment to Purchaser in the same form as received by Seller.

SECTION 5.1. Seller’s Indemnification of Purchaser.

Subject to any limitations in this Section 5.1 and Section 5.4, Seller and its respective successors and assigns (it being understood and agreed that, in the event of a liquidation or dissolution of Seller, no Person shall be deemed to be a successor or assign of Seller solely as a result of such Person’s status as a stockholder of Seller) shall indemnify, hold harmless, and defend Purchaser and its representatives, controlling persons and Affiliates from and against any Losses arising out of or relating to (a) any breach by Seller of any of its covenants or agreements contained herein, (b) any breach by Seller of any of its representations and warranties contained herein, (c) transactions or operations of the Branch Banking Operations on or before the Effective Time, or (d) any Excluded Liabilities.

SECTION 5.2. Purchaser’s Indemnification of Seller.

Purchaser and its successors and assigns shall indemnify, hold harmless, and defend Seller and its representatives, controlling persons and Affiliates from and against any Losses arising out of or relating to (a) any breach by Purchaser of any of its covenants or agreements contained herein, (b) any breach by Purchaser of any of its representations and warranties contained herein, or (c) actions or omissions of Purchaser occurring from and after the Effective Time in conducting the Branch Banking Operations or otherwise relating to the Transferred Assets or the Transferred Liabilities.

SECTION 5.3. Claims for Indemnity.

(a) A claim for indemnity shall be made by the claiming party at any time prior to the applicable Claim Limitation Anniversary by the giving of written notice thereof to the other party. Such written notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis upon which such claim for indemnity is made. In the event that any bona fide claim is made within such period, the indemnity relating to such claim shall survive until such claim is resolved. No claim for indemnity may be made at any time at or after the first anniversary of the Effective Time (excluding claims for indemnity with respect to (1) the representations and warranties contained in Section 6.3 or Section 7.3, which may be made until the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, (2) the representations and warranties contained in Section 6.14, which may be made at any time up to the date ending thirty (30) days after the applicable statutes of limitations with respect thereto, and (3) Section 5.1(c), Section 5.1(d), or Section 5.2(c), which may be made at any time after the Effective Time), and no indemnity shall be available thereafter in accordance with the provisions of this Article V. The applicable claim limitation period, as provided in the preceding sentence, is hereby referred to as the “CLAIM LIMITATION ANNIVERSARY.”

(b) In the event that any Person or entity not a party hereto shall make any demand or claim or file or threaten to file any lawsuit, which demand, claim or lawsuit could result in any Loss to a party hereto of the kind for which such party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 5.1 or 5.2, such indemnified party shall notify the indemnifying party of such demand, claim or lawsuit within twenty (20) days of such demand, claim, filing or threat; provided, however, that any failure by the indemnified party to so notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to be given such notice. Following receipt of notice of a demand, claim or lawsuit, and unless counsel to the indemnified party shall have determined in good faith that the assumption of such defense by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to a conflict or potential conflict of interest or the availability of defenses not available to the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall have the option, at its cost and expense, to assume the defense of such matter and to retain counsel (not reasonably objected to by the indemnified party) to defend any such demand, claim or lawsuit, and the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses (except as expressly provided to the contrary herein) with respect to the defense of such claim or litigation, other than reasonable fees and expenses of counsel employed by the indemnified party for any period during which the indemnifying party has not assumed the defense thereof. The indemnified party shall have the option of joining the defense of such demand, claim or lawsuit (which shall be at the cost and expense of the indemnified party unless (1) counsel to the indemnified party determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate due to a conflict or potential conflict of interest or the availability of defenses not available to the indemnifying party or (2) the indemnifying party fails to assume the defense of such demand, claim or lawsuit within a reasonable period of time following written notice thereof) with counsel not reasonably objected to by the indemnifying party and counsel for each party shall, to the extent consistent with its professional responsibilities, cooperate with the other party and any counsel designated by that party. In effecting the settlement of any such demand, claim or lawsuit, the indemnifying party, or the indemnified party, as the case may be, shall act in good faith, shall consult with the other party and shall enter into only such settlement as the other party shall consent to, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. An indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement not made in accordance with the preceding sentence.

SECTION 5.4. Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) Seller shall not be required to indemnify Purchaser unless the aggregate amount of all Losses incurred by Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.1 exceeds $100,000. Once such aggregate amount of Losses incurred by Purchaser exceeds $100,000, Purchaser shall thereupon be entitled to indemnification only for amounts in excess of such $100,000; provided, however, that the limitations contained in this sentence and the immediately preceding sentence shall not apply to any claim of common law fraud alleged to have been committed by or on behalf of Seller or an Affiliate thereof upon Purchaser or claims for indemnification relating to the breach of any representation or warranty contained in Section 6.14 or to any Transferred Liabilities or Excluded Liabilities, as applicable.

(b) Seller shall not be obligated to indemnify Purchaser for Losses that exceed $1,500,000 in the aggregate with all Losses asserted by such party; provided, however, that the limitations contained in this sentence shall not apply to any claim of common law fraud alleged to have been committed by or on behalf of Seller or an Affiliate thereof upon Purchaser or claims for indemnification for Excluded Liabilities.

(c) Following the Closing, the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties hereto with respect to any and all claims relating to the matters addressed in Section 5.1 or 5.2 (other than claims of common law fraud alleged to have been committed by or on behalf of the indemnifying party or an Affiliate thereof upon the indemnified party) shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article V; provided, however, that the parties may seek to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and conditions hereof.

(d) Nothing in this Article V shall affect the rights and remedies of Purchaser or Seller under Article IX or Article X with respect to any breach by the other of any of their covenants or agreements to be performed at or after the Effective Time.

SECTION 5.5. Treatment of Indemnification Payments.

Seller and Purchaser agree to treat any indemnification payment under this Article V as an adjustment of the consideration paid for the Transferred Assets for income Tax purposes.

SECTION 5.6. Escrow.

At Closing, Seller shall deposit $1,500,000 with ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ as escrow agent (the “ESCROW AGENT”) pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit “B” (the “ESCROW AGREEMENT”) to support its obligations under Section 5.1 of this Agreement.

SECTION 6.4. No Brokers.

All negotiations relative hereto and the transactions contemplated hereby have been carried on by Seller and Purchaser, and there has been no participation or intervention by any other Person, firm or corporation employed or engaged by or on behalf of Seller in such a manner as to give rise to any valid claim against Seller or Purchaser for a brokerage commission, finder’s fee or like commission, except that Seller has engaged ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Financial Group, LLC and will be solely responsible for its fees and expenses.

SECTION 6.5. Personal Property.

Seller owns, and will convey to Purchaser at the Closing, all of Seller’s right, title, and interest to all of the Personal Property, which constitutes good title, free and clear of any mortgages, liens, security interests, pledges or encumbrances of any kind or nature (“LIENS”), other than any such Liens that are reflected in the Net Book Value of the Personal Property for purposes of Section 2.2.

Seller and its Affiliates covenant and agree that they shall not provide any information to Republic First Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries with respect to the Assumed Deposits or Purchased Loans (or the customers associated therewith) or the Hired Employees.

Subject to review of such information as Purchaser may request of such Employees and interviews with such Employees, Purchaser shall determine, in its sole and absolute discretion which Employees to whom it shall make an offer of employment. Any Employees who receive such an offer and accept it are referred to as “Hired Employees.” Each offer of employment to a Hired Employee shall be (i) at a base salary or base hourly wage that is not less than what such Hired Employee was receiving immediately prior to the Closing Date; and (ii) on terms and conditions that are no less favorable in the aggregate to the Hired Employee than those applicable to other similarly situated employees of Purchaser and its Affiliates. Each Hired Employee shall be an “at will” employee of Purchaser. Each Hired Employee’s employment with Seller and its Affiliates shall cease as of the Closing Date. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be (i) construed as an employment contract between Purchaser and any Employee or (ii) give any Employee any rights to claim status as a third party beneficiary of this Agreement.

Any reasonable overtime payable to such employees required as a direct result of such training shall be at Purchaser’s expense. Such training activities may take place, as mutually agreed by the parties, at the Branch or off-site.

SECTION 8.18. Actions With Respect to ▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇ Plan Deposit Liabilities.

(a) On or before the Closing Date, Seller shall (1) resign as the trustee or custodian, as applicable, of each ▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇ Plan of which it is the trustee or custodian and whose

Deposit Liabilities are being assumed by Purchaser hereunder (a list of which Plans and the amount of related Deposits as of the date herein is set forth on Schedule 8.18(a)), (2) to the extent permitted by the documentation governing each such ▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇ Plan and applicable law, appoint Purchaser as successor trustee or custodian, as applicable, of each such ▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇ Plan, and Purchaser hereby accepts each such trusteeship or custodianship under their terms and conditions of Purchaser’s plan documents for its ▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇ Plans, and assumes all fiduciary and custodial obligations with respect thereto as of the close of business the day on which the Deposit Liabilities of such ▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇ Plans are being assumed by Purchaser pursuant to the terms hereof, and (3) deliver to the ▇▇▇ grantor or ▇▇▇▇▇ Plan named fiduciary of each such ▇▇▇ or ▇▇▇▇▇ Plan such notice of the foregoing as is required by the documentation governing each such ▇▇▇ or ▇▇▇▇▇ Plan or applicable law. If, pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing any such ▇▇▇ or ▇▇▇▇▇ Plan or applicable law, (A) Seller is not permitted to appoint Purchaser as successor trustee or custodian, or the ▇▇▇ grantor or ▇▇▇▇▇ Plan named fiduciary objects in writing to such designation, or is entitled to, and does, in fact, name a successor trustee or custodian other than Purchaser, or (B) such ▇▇▇ or ▇▇▇▇▇ Plan includes assets that are not Deposit Liabilities and are not being transferred to Purchaser, or the assumption of such deposit liabilities included in such ▇▇▇ or ▇▇▇▇▇ Plan would result in a loss of qualification of such ▇▇▇ or ▇▇▇▇▇ Plan under the Code or applicable Treasury Regulations, all deposit liabilities of Seller held under such ▇▇▇ or ▇▇▇▇▇ Plan shall be excluded from the Deposit Liabilities (such excluded deposit liabilities being herein called the “EXCLUDED ▇▇▇/ ▇▇▇▇▇ PLAN DEPOSITS”). Upon appointment as a successor custodian for such ▇▇▇ Deposit Liabilities or as a successor trustee for such IRAs or ▇▇▇▇▇ Plans, Purchaser shall perform the services and carry out the duties and obligations required of it under the applicable plans, the Code and applicable federal and state laws and regulations.

(b) To the extent that the Deposit Liabilities include certain IRAs or ▇▇▇▇▇ Plans that are required to make certain periodic distributions to the ▇▇▇ account owner or ▇▇▇▇▇ Plan participant (or beneficiary) either at the account owner’s or participant’s request or because the account owner or participant has attained age 70 1/2, effective as of the Effective Time, Purchaser agrees to continue to make such periodic distributions in accordance with the distribution instructions forwarded by Seller to Purchaser. Purchaser hereby assumes the obligation to pay each minimum distribution required by federal law by December 31 of the calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs and, in consideration thereof, Seller agrees not to withhold the amount of such distributions from the aggregate amount of the Deposit Liabilities.

SECTION 8.19. Letters of Credit.

(a) It is the intention of the parties that Purchaser will assume all obligations accruing after the Effective Time with respect to the Letters of Credit. Accordingly, Seller and Purchaser agree to use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain prior to the Closing Date the consent of the beneficiary (if necessary) to the assumption of (and the resulting release of Seller from) the Letters of Credit and/or to issue replacement letters of credit for those Letters of Credit that are standby Letters of Credit. Attached hereto as Schedule 8.19 is a list of all such Letters of Credit for which consent is required.

(b) Until such time as there are no Letters of Credit, Seller hereby grants to Purchaser, and Purchaser hereby agrees and commits to acquire, as of the Closing Date, from Seller a participation in the Letters of Credit equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the amount thereof.

(c) Seller agrees that, with respect to each request by a beneficiary for a draw under or payment of a Letter of Credit (a “REQUEST”), it will (1) promptly provide, by facsimile sent to Purchaser, copies of any and all documents submitted to support any Request; (2) wait twenty-four (24) hours, or such shorter time period as may be required under such Letter of Credit, after sending the facsimile before acting on a Request; (3) act in accordance with law in deciding whether or not to honor the Request unless directed in writing by Purchaser to otherwise honor or dishonor a Request, which written direction from Purchaser shall set forth Purchaser’s specific reasons for honor or dishonor, as the case may be, provided, however, in the event Purchaser has directed Seller in writing to dishonor a Request that Seller reasonably deems should be honored, Purchaser’s written direction must be accompanied by an indemnification from Purchaser holding Seller harmless from and against any and all Losses that Seller may incur arising from Purchaser’s direction to dishonor (nothing in this Section 8.19(c) is intended to limit Purchaser’s reimbursement obligation set forth in Section 8.19(d), and the indemnity herein shall not be subject to the time limitations or basket limitations set forth in Article V), and if such indemnification is not provided to Seller in writing in a timely fashion, Seller may honor such Request; (4) provide notice to Purchaser of the action taken on the Request and the amount of the Letter of Credit Disbursement that may become due pursuant to Section 8.19(d); and (5) after honoring a Request, send the documents submitted by the beneficiary in support of a Request as directed by Purchaser.

(d) In the event Seller notifies Purchaser that a Letter of Credit Disbursement has been made, then Purchaser agrees to pay to Seller on the day so notified by Seller an amount equal to the Letter of Credit Disbursement; provided, however, that if such notice was not given by Seller to Purchaser prior to 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time on such day, then such amount shall be paid by Purchaser not later than 10:00 a.m. on the next Business Day. Purchaser agrees to pay Seller any amounts due under this Section 8.19(d) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account previously designated by Seller.

(e) Purchaser also agrees to pay Seller (1) interest on any and all amounts unpaid by Purchaser when due under Section 8.19(d), from the date such amounts become due until payment in full, such interest being payable on demand and accruing at the Federal Funds Rate and (2) any and all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred by Seller in exercising or enforcing any rights or performing any obligations under Section 8.19(d) and 8.19(e).

(f) Seller shall promptly remit to Purchaser any amounts subsequently received by Seller from Letter of Credit Customers in respect of all Letter of Credit Disbursements, and agrees to use reasonable best effects to collect all amounts that may be owed to Seller from Letter of Credit Customers in respect of all Letter of Credit Disbursements. Seller also agrees to pay to Purchaser (1) interest on any and all amounts due to Purchaser under this Section 8.19(f), from the date Seller receives such amounts until payment in full, such interest being payable on demand and accruing at the Federal Funds Rate and (2) any and all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred by Purchaser in exercising or enforcing any rights under this Section 8.19(f).

SECTION 11.3. Certain Obligations Upon Termination.

(a) Notwithstanding Section 8.7, should the transactions contemplated herein not be consummated because of a party’s breach of this Agreement, in addition to such damages as may be recoverable in law or equity, the other party shall be entitled to recover from the breaching party upon demand, itemization, and documentation, its reasonable outside legal, accounting, consulting, and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection herewith. In the event of a termination of this Agreement by Seller pursuant to Section 11.1(g) hereof, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser on demand, itemization and documentation, Purchaser’s reasonable outside legal, accounting, consulting, and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection herewith in an amount not to exceed $250,000 in the aggregate.

(b) Without limiting Section 11.3(a) and subject to the final sentence of this Section 11.3(b), if (A) either (1) this Agreement is terminated by either Purchaser or Seller pursuant to Section 11.1(e), or (2) no Stockholder Meeting is held, and (B) within nine (9) months following the date of such termination, Seller shall enter into a definitive agreement with respect to, or consummate, an Acquisition Proposal, Seller shall promptly, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days thereafter, pay to Purchaser, via wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as Purchaser may from time to time designate, $750,000 (the “SELLER TERMINATION FEE”). For purposes of this Section 11.3(b), the term “ACQUISITION PROPOSAL” shall mean any proposal relating to any tender offer or exchange offer for, or proposal for merger, consolidation or other business combination with, or any proposal for the acquisition of a substantial equity interest in, or of a substantial portion of the assets of, or any similar transaction involving, Seller or any of its Subsidiaries, other than the transactions contemplated hereby, it being understood that any proposal to acquire, or that would result directly or indirectly in the acquisition of, any significant portion of the Branch Banking Operations, the Transferred Assets or the Transferred Liabilities shall constitute an Acquisition Proposal. In the event that (A) Seller or any of its Affiliates exercises their right under Section 8.14 to participate in discussions with a third party, or furnishes any information in connection with discussions with a third party, to satisfy a fiduciary duty to its stockholders with respect to any unsolicited offer, or (B) Seller or any of its Affiliates breaches Section 8.14 or Section 8.15, the nine (9) month period cited in the first sentence of this Section 11.3(b) shall be extended to twelve (12) months.

(d) The parties hereto acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 11.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated hereby, and that, without these agreements, neither party to this Agreement would enter into this Agreement; accordingly, if a party fails promptly to pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 11.3, and, in order to obtain such payment, the other party commences a suit that results in a judgment against the obligated party for the fees and expenses set forth in this Section 11.3, the obligated party shall pay to the other party its costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount of the fee at the Federal Funds Rate. The parties hereto agree that any remedy or amount payable pursuant to this Section 11.3 shall not preclude any other remedy or amount payable hereunder with respect to, and shall not be the exclusive remedy for, any willful and material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein.
