Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the Exchange Agent or any other Person shall be liable to any

former holder of shares of Community Common Stock for any amount delivered in good faith to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws.

equity or other equity plan, profit sharing, bonus, retirement (including compensation, pension, health, medical or life insurance benefits), employment agreement, deferred compensation, excess benefit, incentive compensation, severance, change in control or termination pay, hospitalization or other medical or dental, life or other insurance (including any self-insured arrangements), supplemental unemployment, salary continuation, sick leave or other leave of absence benefits, short- or long-term disability, or vacation benefits plan or any other agreement or policy or other arrangement providing employee benefits, employment-related compensation, fringe benefits or other benefits (whether qualified or nonqualified, funded or unfunded) (each an “Employee Benefit Plan”).

(b) With respect to each Employee Benefit Plan, Community has delivered or made available to Parent a true, correct and complete copy of: (i) each writing constituting a part of such Employee Benefit Plan, including, without limitation, all plan documents, benefit schedules, formal or informal trust agreements, and insurance Contracts and other funding vehicles; (ii) the most recent Annual Report (Form 5500 Series) and accompanying schedule, if any; (iii) all investment policy statements or guidelines, delegations and charters related to any Employee Benefit Plan; (iv) each trust agreement, group annuity Contract or other funding mechanism relating to any Employee Benefit Plan, (v) the current summary plan description and any material modifications thereto, if any; (vi) the most recent annual financial report, if any; (vii) the most recent actuarial report, if any; and (viii) the most recent determination letter from the IRS, if any. Except as specifically provided in the foregoing documents delivered or made available to Parent, there are no amendments to any Employee Benefit Plan that have been adopted or approved nor has Community or any of its Subsidiaries undertaken to make any such amendments or to adopt or approve any new Employee Benefit Plan. No Employee Benefit Plan is maintained outside the jurisdiction of the United States, or covers any employee residing or working outside of the United States.

(c) Each Employee Benefit Plan intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code and each related trust intended to qualify under Section 501(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination or may rely upon a prototype or volume submitter opinion letter from the IRS with respect to each such Employee Benefit Plan as to its qualified status under the Code, including all amendments to the Code effected by the Tax Reform Act of 1986 and subsequent legislation for the most recent cycle applicable to such qualified plan pursuant to Revenue Procedure 2005-66 (as amended or otherwise revised by subsequent IRS guidance), any such letter has not been revoked (nor, to the Knowledge of Community, has revocation been threatened) and no fact or event has occurred since the date of such letter or letters from the IRS that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the qualified status of any such Employee Benefit Plan or the exempt status of any such trust.

(d) With respect to each Employee Benefit Plan, Community and its Subsidiaries have complied in all material respects, and are now in material compliance with all provisions of ERISA, the Code and all Laws and regulations applicable to such Employee Benefit Plans and each Employee Benefit Plan has been administered in all material respects in accordance with its terms. There is not now, nor do any circumstances exist that could reasonably be expected to give rise to, any requirement for the posting of security with respect to any Employee Benefit Plan or the imposition of any lien on the assets of Community or any of its Subsidiaries under ERISA or the Code. None of Community or any of its Subsidiaries has

engaged in a transaction with respect to any applicable Employee Benefit Plan that, assuming the taxable period of such transaction expired as of the date hereof, would subject Community or any of its Subsidiaries to a tax or penalty imposed by either Section 4975 of the Code or Section 502(i) of ERISA.

(e) All contributions required to be made to any Employee Benefit Plan by applicable Law or regulation or by any plan document or other contractual undertaking, and all premiums due or payable with respect to insurance policies funding any Employee Benefit Plan, for any period through the date hereof have been timely made or paid in full or, to the extent not required to be made or paid on or before the date hereof, have been accrued on the Community Financial Statements to the extent required under GAAP. Each Employee Benefit Plan that is an employee welfare benefit plan under Section 3(1) of ERISA is either (i) funded through an insurance company contract and is not a “welfare benefit fund” with the meaning of Section 419 of the Code or (ii) unfunded.

(f) (i) No Employee Benefit Plan is a “multiemployer plan” within the meaning of Section 3(37) or 4001(a)(3) of ERISA (a “Multiemployer Plan”) or a plan that has two or more contributing sponsors at least two of whom are not under common control, within the meaning of Section 4063 of ERISA (a “Multiple Employer Plan”); (ii) none of Community or its Subsidiaries nor any of their respective ERISA Affiliates has, at any time during the last six years, contributed to or been obligated to contribute to any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan; (iii) none of Community and its Subsidiaries nor any of their respective ERISA Affiliates has incurred any Withdrawal Liability that has not been satisfied in full; and (iv) no Employee Benefit Plan is subject to Title IV or Section 302 of ERISA or to Sections 412 or 430 of the Code. “ERISA Affiliate” means, with respect to any entity, trade or business, any other entity, trade or business that is a member of a group described in Section 414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Code or Section 4001(b)(1) of ERISA that includes the first entity, trade or business, or that is a member of the same “controlled group” as the first entity, trade or business pursuant to Section 4001(a)(14) of ERISA. “Withdrawal Liability” means liability to a Multiemployer Plan as a result of a complete or partial withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan, as those terms are defined in Part I of Subtitle E of Title IV of ERISA.

(g) There does not exist, nor, to the Knowledge of Community, do any circumstances exist that could reasonably be expected to result in, any Controlled Group Liability that would be a liability of Community or its Subsidiaries following the Closing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither Community nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any of their respective ERISA Affiliates, has engaged in any transaction described in Section 4069 or Section 4204 or 4212 of ERISA. “Controlled Group Liability” means any and all liabilities (i) under Title IV of ERISA, (ii) under section 302 of ERISA, (iii) under sections 412 and 4971 of the Code, (iv) as a result of a failure to comply with the continuation coverage requirements of section 601 et seq. of ERISA and section 4980B of the Code, (v) as a result of a failure to comply with the group health care coverage requirements of sections 4980D or 4890H of the Code and (vi) under corresponding or similar provisions of foreign Laws or regulations.

(h) None of Community and its Subsidiaries has any liability for life, health, medical or other welfare benefits to former employees or beneficiaries or dependents thereof, except for health continuation coverage as required by Section 4980B of the Code or Part 6 of

Title I of ERISA and at no expense to Community and its Subsidiaries. Except as Previously Disclosed, Community and each of its Subsidiaries has reserved the right to amend, terminate or modify at any time all plans or arrangements providing for post-retirement welfare benefits.

(i) Except as would not reasonably be expected to result in any liability to Community or any of its Subsidiaries, there are no pending or threatened claims (other than routine undisputed claims for benefits in the ordinary course), lawsuits or arbitrations which have been asserted, threatened or instituted, and to the Knowledge of Community, no set of circumstances exists which may reasonably give rise to a claim or lawsuit against the Employee Benefit Plans, any fiduciaries thereof with respect to their duties to the Employee Benefit Plans or the assets of any of the trusts under any of the Employee Benefit Plans. Neither Community nor any of its Subsidiaries has taken any action to take corrective action or make a filing under any voluntary correction program of the IRS, the U.S. Department of Labor or any other Governmental Authority with respect to any Employee Benefit Plan, and neither Community nor any of its Subsidiaries has any Knowledge of any plan defect that would qualify for correction under any such program. No audit or other proceeding by a Governmental Authority is pending or, to Community’s Knowledge, threatened with respect to any Employee Benefit Plan.

(j) Each Employee Benefit Plan that is a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and associated Treasury Department guidance has been operated in compliance with, and is in documentary compliance with, Section 409A of the Code and IRS regulations and guidance thereunder. No compensation payable by Community or any of its Subsidiaries has been reported as nonqualified deferred compensation in the gross income of any individual or entity, and subject to an additional tax, as a result of the operation of Section 409A of the Code, and no arrangement exists with respect to a nonqualified deferred compensation plan that would result in income inclusion under Section 409A(b) of the Code.

(k) Except as Previously Disclosed on Section 4.11(k) of the Community Disclosure Schedule, neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, either alone or together with any other event or events, will (i) result in any payment (including, without limitation, severance, change in control, forgiveness of indebtedness or otherwise) becoming due under any Employee Benefit Plan, whether or not such payment is contingent, (ii) increase any payments or benefits otherwise payable under any Employee Benefit Plan, (iii) result in the acceleration of the time of payment, vesting or funding of any benefits including, but not limited to, the acceleration of the vesting and exercisability of any equity awards, whether or not contingent, (iv) result in any limitation on the right of Community or any of its Subsidiaries to amend, merge, terminate or receive a reversion of assets from any Employee Benefit Plan or related trust, (v) require the funding of any trust or other funding vehicle or (vi) limit or restrict the right of Community or, after the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the Parent or the Surviving Corporation, to merge, amend or terminate any of the Employee Benefit Plans. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the Merger, either alone or in combination with another event will result in any payment or benefit (whether in cash or property or the vesting of property) to any “disqualified individual” (as such term is defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.280G-1) that would, individually or in combination with any other such payment, constitute an “excess parachute payment” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(1) of the

Code) that would not be deductible under Section 280G of the Code. As of the Closing, Community shall have received, as of a date no earlier than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the written confirmation of a nationally recognized accounting firm reasonably acceptable to Parent that no agreement, Contract or arrangement to which any employee of Community is a party will result in the payment of any amount that would not be deductible by reason of Section 280G of the Code. No Employee Benefit Plan provides for the gross-up or reimbursement of Taxes under Section 4999 or 409A of the Code, or otherwise.

(l) Each individual who renders services to Community or any of its Subsidiaries who is classified by Community or such Subsidiary, as applicable, as having the status of an independent contractor or other non-employee status for any purpose (including for purposes of taxation and tax reporting and participation under Employee Benefit Plans) is properly so characterized.

(m) All cash bonuses and other incentive compensation that are payable by Community on a quarterly or monthly basis have been, and will be paid, solely pursuant to the Community’s Incentive and Commission Plan, a true and complete copy of which has been furnished by Community to Parent and Citizens (such plan, the “Community Incentive and Commission Plan”).

4.12 Approvals. As of the date of this Agreement, Community has no Knowledge why all regulatory approvals from any Governmental Authority required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement should not be obtained on a timely basis.

4.13 Opinion. The Community Board has received the opinion of ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & Co. that, as of the date hereof, and based upon and subject to the factors and assumptions set forth therein, the Merger Consideration to be paid to the holders of the Community Common Stock in the Merger is fair, from a financial point of view, to such holders.

4.14 Community Information. The information relating to Community and its Subsidiaries that is provided by Community or its representatives for inclusion in the Prospectus/Joint Proxy Statement and the Registration Statement, or in any application, notification or other document filed with any other Regulatory Agency or other Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are made, not misleading.

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable after they become available, but in no event more than twenty (20) days after the end of each calendar month ending after the date hereof and at least seven (7) Business Days before the Closing, Community will furnish to Parent and Citizens: (i) consolidated financial statements (including balance sheets, statements of operations and stockholders’ equity) of as of and for such month then ended (including the month ended immediately prior to the Closing Date) (the “Monthly Financial Statements”); (ii) internal management reports showing actual financial performance against plan; (iii) to the extent permitted by applicable Law, any reports provided to the Community Board or any committee thereof relating to the financial performance and risk management of it or any of its Subsidiaries; and (v) a listing of all new and renewed loans and loan modifications, loan payoffs (meaning a closed paid note) and loan purchases with a balance of $250,000 or greater that were completed or made during the preceding month. Community shall also furnish to Parent and Citizens copies of all Call Reports that will be filed after the date hereof with any Regulatory Agencies, including all financial statements included in such Call Reports and any related work papers. Community shall also undertake all commercially reasonable efforts to complete the audit of its consolidated financial statements (including balance sheets, statements of operations and stockholders’ equity) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017 (the “2017 Audited Financial Statements”), as promptly as practicable and by no later than March 15, 2018. Each of the Monthly Financial Statements, the financial statements contained in any Call Report filed by Community after the date hereof, and 2017 Audited Financial Statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP and regulatory accounting principles and other applicable legal and accounting requirements, and reflect all period-end accruals and other adjustments. Such financial statements shall be accompanied by a certificate of Community’s chief financial officer to the effect that such financial statements continue to reflect accurately, as of the date of the certificate, the financial condition of Community in all material respects. Such financial statements shall also reflect accruals for all Transaction Expenses incurred as of the date of such financial statements in accordance with GAAP.

(c) All nonpublic information and materials provided pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement entered into between the Parties dated October 30, 2017 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”).

(d) No investigation by a party hereto or its representatives shall affect or be deemed to modify or waive any representations, warranties or covenants of the other party set forth in this Agreement.

6.05 Regulatory Matters.

(a) The Parties shall reasonably cooperate with each other and use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to promptly prepare and file all necessary documentation, to effect all applications, notices, petitions and filings, to obtain as promptly as practicable all permits, consents, approvals and authorizations of all third parties and Governmental Authorities that are necessary or advisable to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement as soon as reasonably possible, and to comply with the terms and conditions of all such permits, consents, approvals, and authorizations of all such third parties or Governmental Authorities; provided, however, any initial filings with Governmental Authorities in connection with the Merger shall be made by Parent and Citizens within thirty (30) calendar days after the date hereof. Each of Parent and Community shall, upon request, furnish to the other all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, directors, officers and shareholders and such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with any statement, filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of Parent, Community or any of their respective Subsidiaries to any Governmental Authority in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Community and Parent shall have the right to review in advance and, to the extent practicable, each will consult the other on, in each case subject to applicable Laws, all the non-confidential information relating to Community or Parent (excluding any confidential financial information relating to individuals), as the case may be, and any of their respective Subsidiaries, that appear in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party or any Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In exercising the foregoing right, each of the Parties shall act reasonably and as promptly as practicable. The Parties shall consult with each other with respect to the obtaining of all permits, consents, approvals and authorizations (collectively the “Approvals”) of all third parties and Governmental Authorities necessary or advisable to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and each Party will keep the other reasonably apprised of the status of matters relating to such Approvals and the completion of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require Parent or any of its Subsidiaries to take any action, or commit to take any action, or agree to any condition or restriction, in connection with obtaining the foregoing permits, consents, approvals and authorizations of Governmental Authorities that would reasonably be likely, in each case following the Effective Time (but regardless when the action, condition or restriction is to be taken or implemented), to (i) have a Parent Material Adverse Effect or (ii) require Parent, Citizens or the Surviving Corporation to raise additional capital or accept any restrictions on its ability to operate its businesses, in each case, that would materially reduce the economic benefits of the transactions contemplated hereby to Parent and Citizens to such a degree that Parent and Citizens, in good faith after consultation with Community, would not have entered into this Agreement had such conditions, restrictions or requirements been known at the date hereof (any of clauses (i) or (ii), a “Materially Burdensome Regulatory Condition”).

(c) From and after the date hereof until the earlier of the Effective Time or termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article 8, (i) the Parties shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to comply in all material respects with any commitments or

obligations under any Regulatory Agreement or CRA Agreement, and shall exercise their commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any unresolved violation, criticism or exception thereunder; (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Parties shall keep each other informed of the status and progress of its compliance with any such CRA-related commitments or obligations; (iii) each Party shall promptly provide the other Parties of any notice, or other Knowledge of such Party, of any planned or threatened objection by any community group to the transactions contemplated hereby; and (iv) each Party shall cooperate with the other Parties to address and resolve any such protests as promptly as practicable, including by providing access to such information and employees of such Party as another Party may reasonably request.

6.06 Registration Statement.

(a) Community and Parent shall prepare and file with the SEC the Prospectus/Joint Proxy Statement (as defined below), and Parent shall prepare and file with the SEC the Registration Statement on Form S-4 to be filed with the SEC by Parent in connection with the issuance of shares of Parent Common Stock in the Merger (including the joint proxy statement and prospectus (the “Prospectus/Joint Proxy Statement”) constituting a part thereof, the “Registration Statement”), as promptly as practicable after the date hereof. Each of Parent and Community shall, upon request, furnish to the other all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, directors, officers and shareholders and such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with the Prospectus/Joint Proxy Statement, the Registration Statement or any other statement, filing, notice or application made in connection therewith.

(b) Parent and Community each shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after such filing, and promptly thereafter Community and Parent shall mail the Prospectus/Proxy Statement to the holders of Community Common Stock and Parent Common Stock as applicable. Parent shall reasonably promptly provide Community with copies of any written comments and advise Community of any oral comments with respect to the Registration Statement received from the SEC. Each Party shall cooperate and provide the other with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement prior to filing such with the SEC.

(c) Community and Parent each agrees, for itself and its Subsidiaries, that (i) the Registration Statement will not, at the time the Registration Statement becomes effective under the Securities Act, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case with respect to the information supplied or to be supplied by it or its Subsidiaries for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Registration Statement, and (ii) the Prospectus/Joint Proxy Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto will not, at the date of mailing to Community and Parent shareholders and at the time of the Community Shareholder Meeting and Parent Shareholder Meeting to be held in connection with the Merger, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any 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, in each case with respect to the information supplied or to be supplied by it or its Subsidiaries for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Prospectus/Joint Proxy Statement. Community and

Parent will cause the Registration Statement to comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder. Each of Community and Parent agrees that if such Party shall become aware prior to the Effective Time of any information furnished by such Party that would cause any of the statements in the Prospectus/Joint Proxy Statement to be false or misleading with respect to any material fact, or that would result in an omission to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not false or misleading, to promptly inform the other Party thereof and to take the necessary steps to correct the Prospectus/Joint Proxy Statement.

6.07 Community Shareholder Approval.

(a) Community shall take, in accordance with applicable Law and the Community Articles and Community Bylaws, all actions necessary to convene a duly called meeting or meetings of its shareholders (the “Community Shareholder Meeting”) to be held as soon as reasonably practicable after the Registration Statement is declared effective (but in no event later than forty-five (45) days after the Registration Statement is declared effective) for the purpose of obtaining the Community Shareholder Approval.

(b) Except to the extent specifically contemplated in Section 6.09 in the case of a Community Change in Recommendation, the Community Board shall at all times prior to and during such Community Shareholder Meeting recommend such approval and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to solicit and obtain from the shareholders of Community the Community Shareholder Approval (the “Community Board Recommendation”), including by communicating to its shareholders its recommendation (and including such recommendation in the Prospectus/Joint Proxy Statement) that they adopt and approve the plan of Merger set forth in this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless this Agreement has terminated in accordance with its terms, this Agreement and the Merger shall be submitted to Community’s shareholders at the Community Shareholder Meeting whether or not (i) the Community Board shall have effected an Adverse Change of Recommendation or (ii) any Community Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly proposed or announced or otherwise submitted to Community or any of its advisors. Community shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, adjourn or postpone the Community Shareholder Meeting; provided that Community may, without the prior written consent of Parent, adjourn or postpone the Community Shareholder Meeting (A) if on the date on which Community Shareholder Meeting is originally scheduled, Community has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of shares of Community Common Stock to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct business at the Community Shareholder Meeting l, (B) after consultation with Parent, if the failure to adjourn or postpone Community Shareholder Meeting would reasonably be expected to be a violation of applicable Law for the distribution of any required supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement, or (C) after consultation with Parent, for a single period not to exceed ten (10) Business Days, to solicit additional proxies if necessary to obtain the Community Shareholder Approval. Parent may require Community to adjourn, delay or postpone Community Shareholder Meeting once for a period not to exceed ten (10) Business Days (but prior to the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Outside Date) to solicit additional proxies necessary to obtain the Community Shareholder Approval. Once Community has established the record date for determining shareholders of Community entitled to vote at the Community Shareholder Meeting, Community shall not change such record date or establish a

different record date for the Community Shareholder Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent, unless required to do so by applicable Law or the Community Articles or Community Bylaws.

(c) Community shall engage a proxy solicitor reasonably acceptable to Parent to assist in the solicitation of proxies from shareholders relating to the Community Shareholder Approval. Community and Parent shall each use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Community Shareholder Meeting and the Parent Shareholder Meeting to be held within ten

(10)	Business Days of each meeting.

6.08 Parent Shareholder Approval. The Parent Board has resolved to recommend to Parent’s shareholders that they approve the issuance of Parent Common Stock in connection with the Merger, and will submit to its shareholders the proposed issuance of the Parent Common Stock and any other matters required to be approved by its shareholders in order to carry out the intentions of this Agreement. Parent shall duly take, in accordance with applicable Law, the Parent Articles, and the Parent Bylaws, all action necessary to call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its shareholders, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the S-4 is declared effective for the purpose of obtaining the Requisite Parent Vote (the “Parent Shareholder Meeting”) (but in no event later than forty-five (45) days after the Registration Statement is declared effective). The Parent Board will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain from its shareholders the Parent Shareholder Approval, including by communicating to its shareholders its recommendation (and including such recommendation in the Prospectus/Joint Proxy Statement). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless this Agreement has terminated in accordance with its terms, the issuance of Parent Common Stock in the Merger and any other matters required to be approved by Parent’s shareholders in order to carry out the intentions of this Agreement shall be submitted to Parent’s shareholders at the Parent Shareholder Meeting. Parent shall engage a proxy solicitor reasonably acceptable to Community to assist in the solicitation of proxies from shareholders relating to the Parent Shareholder Approval. Community and Parent shall each use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Community Shareholder Meeting and the Parent Shareholder Meeting to be held within ten (10) Business Days of each meeting.

6.09 No Solicitation.

(a) Community agrees that neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any of the officers, directors or employees of it or its Subsidiaries shall, and that it shall cause its and its Subsidiaries’ officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, representatives (including any investment banker, attorney or accountant retained by it or any of its Subsidiaries) and Affiliates, not to, directly or indirectly:

(i) initiate, solicit, encourage or knowingly facilitate any inquiries with respect to, or the making of any proposal or offer that constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, a transaction to effect, (A) a merger, reorganization, share exchange, consolidation, business combination, recapitalization or similar transaction involving it or any of its Subsidiaries that, if consummated, would result in any Person (or the stockholders of such Person) beneficially owning 15% or more of any class of equity securities or any amount of securities representing 15% or more of the total voting power of it (or of the

surviving parent entity in such transaction) or of any of its Subsidiaries, or (B) any purchase or sale or other acquisition of 15% or more of the consolidated assets (including stock of its Subsidiaries) of it and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (C) any purchase or sale of, or tender or exchange offer for, or other acquisition of, its voting securities that, if consummated, would result in any Person (or the stockholders of such Person) beneficially owning 15% or more of any class of equity securities or any amount of securities representing 15% or more of the total voting power of it (or of the surviving parent entity in such transaction) or of any of its Subsidiaries, or (D) a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of it (any such proposal, offer or transaction in any of the preceding clauses (A), (B), (C) or (D) (other than a proposal or offer made by Parent or an Affiliate thereof) being hereinafter referred to as an “Acquisition Proposal”),

(ii) engage or enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions with or provide any confidential information or data to any Person relating to, or engage in any negotiations concerning, or otherwise cooperate with or assist or participate in, or encourage or knowingly facilitate any such inquiries, proposals, discussions or negotiations or any effort or attempt to make an Acquisition Proposal or any other proposal that could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, or

(iii) approve, endorse or recommend, or propose to approve, endorse or recommend, or execute or enter into, any letter of intent, agreement in principle, merger agreement, asset purchase or share exchange agreement, option agreement or other similar agreement related to any Acquisition Proposal or propose or agree to do any of the foregoing.

(b) Subject to Section 6.09(c) below, Community 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 Parent and Citizens with respect to any Community Acquisition Proposal and will, subject to applicable Law, (i) enforce any confidentiality or similar agreement relating to a Community Acquisition Proposal and (ii) within ten (10) Business Days after the date hereof, request and confirm the return or destruction of any confidential information provided to any Person (other than Parent and its Affiliates) pursuant to any such confidentiality or similar agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Community Board shall be permitted, at any time prior to the Community Shareholder Approval, and subject to compliance by Community with the other terms of this Section 6.09 and to Community first entering into a confidentiality agreement (a copy of which shall be provided to Parent) with the Person making the Acquisition Proposal described on terms no less restrictive to the counterparty than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement and that expressly permits Community to comply with its obligations under this Section 6.09, to engage in discussions and negotiations with, or provide any nonpublic information or data to, any Person in response to an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal by such Person made or renewed after the date of this Agreement and which the Community Board (i) concludes in good faith constitutes or is reasonably likely to result in a Superior Proposal and (ii) determines that engaging in such discussions and negotiations with, or providing such nonpublic information or

data to, such Person is necessary in order for the Community Board to comply with its fiduciary duties to its shareholders under applicable Law.

(d) Community shall notify Parent promptly (but in no event later than twenty four (24) hours) after receipt of any Acquisition Proposal, or any request for nonpublic information relating to Community or any of its Subsidiaries by any Person that informs Community or any of its Subsidiaries that it is considering making, or has made, an Acquisition Proposal, or any inquiry from any Person seeking to have discussions or negotiations with Community relating to a possible Acquisition Proposal or any other indication that any Person is considering making an Acquisition Proposal with respect to it. Such notice shall be made orally and confirmed in writing, and shall indicate the identity of the Person making the Acquisition Proposal, inquiry or request and the material terms and conditions of any inquiries, proposals or offers. Community shall also promptly, and in any event within twenty four (24) hours, notify Parent, orally and in writing, if it enters into discussions or negotiations concerning any Acquisition Proposal or provides nonpublic information or data to any Person in accordance with Section 6.09(c) (and shall promptly provide to Parent copies of all material nonpublic information so provided not previously provided to Parent) and shall keep Parent promptly and fully informed of the status and terms of any such proposals, offers, discussions or negotiations on a current basis, including by providing within twenty four (24) hours of receipt, a summary of all material terms of such proposals or offers (including any material changes in any terms), together with copies of all such proposals or offers if in writing (including all draft agreements). At least five (5) Business Days prior to each meeting of the Community Board at which the Community Board shall consider and determine whether any offer constitutes a Superior Proposal, Community shall provide Parent with a written notice specifying the date and time of such meeting, the reasons for holding such meeting, the material terms and conditions of the offer that is the basis of the potential action by the Community Board (including a copy of any draft definitive agreement reflecting the offer) and the identity of the Person making the offer.

(e) Subject to Section 6.09(f), neither the Community Board nor any committee of either thereof shall:

(i) withdraw, modify or qualify the Community Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to Parent, or adopt a resolution to withdraw, modify or qualify the Community Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to Parent or take any other action that is or becomes disclosed publicly and which can reasonably be interpreted as indicating that the Community Board or any committee thereof does not support the Merger and this Agreement or does not believe that the Merger and this Agreement are in the best interests of its shareholders;

(ii) fail to reaffirm, without qualification, the Community Board Recommendation or fail to state publicly, without qualification, that the Merger and this Agreement are in the best interests of its shareholders within five (5) Business Days after Parent requests in writing that such action be taken;

(iii) fail to announce publicly within ten (10) Business Days after a tender offer or exchange offer relating to the Community Common Stock shall have been commenced, that it recommends rejection of such tender or exchange offer;

(iv) fail to issue within ten (10) Business Days after an Acquisition Proposal is publicly announced with respect to Community a press release announcing its opposition to such Acquisition Proposal;

(v) approve, endorse or recommend any such Acquisition Proposal with respect to Community; or

(vi) resolve to take any action described in clauses (i) through (v) of this sentence (each of the foregoing actions described in clauses (i) through (vi) of this sentence being referred to herein as a “Community Change in Recommendation”).

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time prior to the Community Shareholder Approval, the Community Board may effect a Community Change in Recommendation if:

(i) after the date of this Agreement, an unsolicited, bona fide written offer to effect a transaction of the type referred to in the definition of the term Superior Proposal is made to Community and is not withdrawn;

(ii) such unsolicited, bona fide, written offer was not obtained or made as a direct or indirect result of a breach of, or any action inconsistent with, this Agreement;

(iii) Community has complied with its obligations to provide notices to Parent of any Acquisition Proposal and other matters requiring notice under this Section 6.09;

(iv) at least two (2) Business Days prior to each meeting of the Community Board at which the Community Board shall consider and determine whether any such offer constitutes a Superior Proposal, Community provides the Parent with a written notice specifying the date and time of such meeting, the reasons for holding such meeting, the material terms and conditions of the offer that is the basis of the potential action by the Community Board (including a copy of any draft definitive agreement reflecting the offer) and the identity of the Person making the offer (it being agreed that any material change to the terms and conditions of such offer shall require a new notice and new two (2) Business Day period);

(v) the Community Board determines in good faith, after obtaining and taking into account the advice of a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation and its outside legal counsel, that such offer constitutes a Superior Proposal;

(vi) the Community Board does not effect, or cause Community to effect, a Community Change in Recommendation at any time within three (3) Business Days after Parent receives written notice from Community confirming that the Community Board has determined that such offer is a Superior Proposal and intends to effect a Community Change in Recommendation;

(vii) during such five (5) Business Day period, if requested by Parent, Community engages in good faith negotiations with Parent to amend this Agreement in such a manner that the offer that was determined to constitute a Superior Proposal no longer constitutes a Superior Proposal;

(viii) at the end of such five (5) Business Day period, such offer has not been withdrawn and continues to constitute a Superior Proposal (taking into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent as a result of the negotiations required by clause (vii) or otherwise); and

(ix) the Community Board reasonably determines in good faith, after obtaining and taking into account the advice of its outside legal counsel that, in light of such Superior Proposal, a Community Change in Recommendation is required in order for the Community Board to comply with its fiduciary duties to its shareholders under applicable Law.

(g) Nothing in this Section 6.09 (but subject to the terms set forth in Section 8.01) shall (i) permit Community to terminate this Agreement or (ii) affect any other obligation of Community under this Agreement. Unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, Community shall not submit to the vote of its shareholders any Acquisition Proposal other than the Merger.

6.10 Takeover Laws. At all times prior to the Effective Time, Community and Parent (as to themselves) shall: (a) take all reasonable action necessary to ensure that no Takeover Law is or becomes applicable to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the Merger; and (b) if any Takeover Law becomes applicable to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including the Merger, take all reasonable action necessary to ensure that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and otherwise to minimize the effect of such Takeover Law on this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger.

6.11 Schedule Updates. Not later than the tenth (10th) day of each calendar month between March 31, 2018 and the Closing Date, and at least seven (7) Business Days prior to the Closing (or with respect to matters requiring updating as of the Determination Date, on the Determination Date), Community shall provide to Parent and Citizens a supplemental Community Disclosure Schedule reflecting any required changes thereto between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date which would have been required to be set forth or described in such disclosure schedule or which is necessary to correct any information in any Community representation or warranty or such disclosure schedule which has been rendered inaccurate thereby. Delivery of such supplemental disclosure schedules shall not cure a breach or modify a representation or warranty of this Agreement or for determining the satisfaction of any conditions to consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or otherwise affect the respective rights, obligations, representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the Parties hereto. Any information set forth in any one section of Community Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to apply to each other applicable section or subsection of Community Disclosure Schedule, respectively, if its relevance to the information called for in such section or

subsection is reasonably apparent on its face notwithstanding the omission of any cross-reference to such other section.

6.12 Certain Policies. Immediately prior to the Effective Time and provided that Parent has confirmed in writing that all conditions to its obligations to effect the Merger have been satisfied or waived and that it is prepared to effect the Merger, Community shall, consistent with GAAP, the rules and regulations of the SEC and the rules and regulations of the CDBO, FDIC and applicable banking Law, modify or change its loan, other real estate owned, accrual, reserve, Tax, litigation and real estate valuation policies and practices (including loan classifications and levels of reserves) so as to be applied on a basis that is consistent with that of Citizens; provided, however, that unless the modification or changes would otherwise be necessary to be consistent with applicable Law or with regulatory accounting principles and GAAP, no such modification or change shall constitute or be deemed to be a breach, violation of or failure to satisfy any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement, condition or other provision of this Agreement or otherwise be considered in determining whether any such breach, violation or failure to satisfy shall have occurred, or as an admission or acknowledgement by Community that any such modification or change is appropriate or required or that any financial statement or information previously provided by Community was incorrect in any respect.

6.13 Indemnification; Director’s and Officer’s Insurance.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, each of Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director and officer of Community and its Subsidiaries (in each case, when acting in such capacity) (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of actions or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to the extent they are indemnified on the date hereof to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law; and Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall also advance expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law; provided that the Indemnified Party to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances (including to Citizens, as successor-in-interest to Community) if it is ultimately determined that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification. Further, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall assume, perform and observe the obligations of Community under the Community Articles, the Community Bylaws and the agreements in effect as of the date of this Agreement and set forth in Schedule 6.13(a) of the Community Disclosure Schedule to indemnify those Persons who are or have been at any time been directors and officers of Community for their acts and omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time in their capacity as directors or officers.

(b) For a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time, Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall provide that portion of director’s and officer’s liability insurance (“D&O Insurance”) that serves to reimburse the present and former officers and directors (determined as of the Effective Time) of Community with respect to claims against such directors and officers arising from facts or events which occurred at or before the Effective Time, which D&O Insurance shall contain at least the same coverage and amounts, and contain terms

and conditions no less advantageous to such officers and directors, as that coverage currently provided by Community; provided, however, that in no event shall Parent or the Surviving Corporation be required to expend in the aggregate for such six (6)-year period more than 300% of the current amount expended on an annual basis by Community to maintain or procure such D&O Insurance; provided, further, that if Parent or the Surviving Corporation is unable to maintain or obtain the D&O Insurance called for by this Section 6.13, Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall obtain as much comparable insurance as is available at a cost in the aggregate for such six (6)-year period up to 300% of the current annual premium; provided, further, that officers and directors of Community may be required to make application and provide customary representations and warranties to Parent or the Surviving Corporation’s insurance carrier for the purpose of obtaining such D&O Insurance. In lieu of the foregoing, Parent shall or, with the prior written consent of Parent, Community may, purchase, at or prior to the Effective Time, a six (6)-year prepaid “tail” policy on terms and conditions providing substantially equivalent benefits as the current policies of the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by the Community and its Subsidiaries with respect to matters arising at or prior to the Effective Time, covering without limitation the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, at an aggregate cost up to but not exceeding 300% of the current annual premium for such insurance (or as much comparable insurance as is available at a cost in the aggregate for such six (6) year period up to 300% of the current annual premium). If such prepaid “tail” policy has been obtained prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall cause such policy to be maintained in full force and effect, for its full term, and cause all obligations thereunder to be honored by Parent and the Surviving Corporation, and no other party shall have any further obligation to purchase or pay for insurance pursuant to this Section 6.13(b). If Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of its successors or assigns shall (i) consolidate with or merge into any other corporation or entity and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any other Person, then, and in each case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.13. The provisions of this Section 6.13 are (i) intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party and (ii) in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Indemnified Person may have by contract or otherwise.

(c) Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under Section 6.13(a), upon learning of any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation described above, will promptly notify Parent or the Surviving Corporation thereof; provided that failure to so notify will not affect the obligations of Parent or the Surviving Corporation under Section 6.13(a) unless and to the extent that Parent or the Surviving Corporation is actually and materially prejudiced as a consequence. In the event of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation (whether arising before or after the Effective Time), (i) Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall have the right to assume the defense thereof and Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party for any legal expenses or other counsel or any other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that none of Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any Claim for which indemnification has been sought by an Indemnified Party hereunder, unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such

Claim or such Indemnified Party otherwise consents in writing to such settlement, compromise or consent, (ii) the Indemnified Party will cooperate in the defense of any such matter, and (iii) Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall not be liable for any settlement effected without its prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall not have any obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Party if and when a court of competent jurisdiction shall ultimately determine, and such determination shall have become final, that the indemnification of such Indemnified Party in the manner contemplated hereby is prohibited by applicable Law.

6.14 Employee Benefit Plans.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or pursuant to the terms of such Employee Benefit Plans, all Employee Benefit Plans of Community will be discontinued and employees of Community who become employees of Citizens on the Closing Date (such employees “Continuing Employees”) shall become eligible for the employee benefit plans of Citizens beginning on the first day of the month immediately after the Closing Date on the same terms as such plans and benefits are generally offered from time to time to employees of Citizens in comparable positions with Citizens; provided, however, that Continuing Employees will be eligible to participate in any severance plans of Citizens immediately after the Closing Date on the same terms as such plans and benefits are generally offered from time to time to employees of Citizens in comparable positions with Citizens. Effective as of a date no later than the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, Community shall terminate its 401(k) Plan (the “Community 401(k) Plan”) and shall provide Parent with evidence that the Community 401(k) Plan has been terminated (effective no later than the day immediately preceding the Closing Date) pursuant to resolutions of the Community Board. The form and substance of such resolutions shall be subject to the review and reasonable approval of Parent.

employees of Community on the Closing Date with credit, for the calendar year in which the Closing occurs, for the amount of any out-of-pocket expenses and copayments or deductible expenses that are incurred by them and their spouses and eligible dependents during the calendar year in which the Closing occurs under a group health plan maintained by Citizens or any of its Affiliates.

102

(d) by action of the Community Board or Parent Board if the Community Shareholder Approval or Parent Shareholder Approval is not obtained at the duly convened Community Shareholder Meeting or Parent Shareholder Meeting, respectively;

(e) by action of the Community Board or Parent Board, if there shall have been a breach by the other Party of any of the covenants or agreements or any of the representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement on the part of such other Party, which breach, either individually or in the aggregate, would result in, if occurring or continuing on the Closing Date, the failure of the condition set forth in Sections 7.01, 7.02, or 7.03, as the case may be, and which breach has not been cured within thirty (30) days following written notice thereof (or such shorter period as remaining prior to the Outside Date) to the breaching Party or, by its nature, cannot be reasonably cured within such time period; provided further that the terminating Party is not then in material breach of any representation warranty, covenant or agreement which would result in, if occurring or continuing on the Closing Date, the failure of the conditions set forth in Sections 7.01, 7.02 or 7.03;

103

reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange of shares or similar transaction between the date of this Agreement and the Determination Date); and

If Parent makes such election to reinstate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, no termination will occur pursuant to this Section 8.01(h) and this Agreement will remain in effect according to its terms (except as the Merger Consideration has been adjusted).

(ii) (A) If either Party shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(b) or Section 8.01(d) in the event that the Community Shareholder Approval shall not have been obtained, or if Parent shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(e) or if Community shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(g); (B) at any time after the date of this Agreement and at or before the date of the Community Shareholder Meeting (or the date of termination, if applicable) an Acquisition Proposal (or an intention (whether or not conditional) to make an Acquisition Proposal), whether or not relating to an Acquisition Proposal received prior to the date hereof, shall have been made or renewed to Community or the Community Board or its shareholders and publicly announced or otherwise become publicly known, and (C) if within eighteen (18) months after the date of such termination of this Agreement, Community or any of its Subsidiaries executes any definitive agreement with respect to, or consummates, such Acquisition Proposal (substituting for purposes of this clause (C) “50%” for “15%” in the definition thereof), then Community shall pay Citizens the Termination Fee upon the first to occur of the date of execution of such definitive agreement or the date of the consummation of the transaction contemplated by such Acquisition Proposal.

8.03(b) above are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that without such agreements Parent would not have entered into this Agreement, and that such amounts do not constitute a penalty. If Community fails to pay Parent any amounts due under Section 8.03(b) above within the time period specified therein, Community shall pay all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Parent from the date such amounts were required to be paid in connection with any action, including the filing of any lawsuit, taken to

105

collect payment of such amounts, together with interest on the amount of any such unpaid amounts at the publicly announced prime rate of interest printed in The Wall Street Journal on the date such payment was required to be made.

(d) The Parties acknowledge and hereby agree that in no event shall Community be required to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion, whether or not such termination fee may be payable under more than one provision of this Agreement at the same or at different times and the occurrence of different events.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, in any circumstance in which Parent receives payment of the Termination Fee in accordance with Section 8.03, the receipt of the Termination Fee in such circumstance shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of Parent and Citizens against Community or any of its former, current or future shareholders, members, managers, directors, officers, employees, agents, affiliates or assignees for any and all losses and damages suffered or incurred as a result of the failure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be consummated or for a breach or failure to perform hereunder (whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise) or otherwise arising out of, or directly or indirectly relating to, this Agreement, the negotiation, execution or performance hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby.

9.07 Entire Understanding; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (including the Community Disclosure Schedule and Parent Disclosure Schedule attached hereto and incorporated herein), the Voting Agreements and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute

108

the entire agreement of the Parties hereto and thereto with reference to the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and supersede all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and warranties, both written and oral, between the Parties or their officers, directors, agents, employees or representatives, with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except for Section 6.13, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person, other than the Parties hereto or their respective successors, any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.

9.08 Effect. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to require Community or Parent or any Affiliates or directors of any of them to take any action or omit to take any action which action or omission would violate any applicable Law (whether statutory or common Law), rule or regulation.

9.09 Severability. Except to the extent that application of this Section 9.09 would have a Community Material Adverse Effect or a Parent Material Adverse Effect or would prevent, materially delay or materially impair the ability of Community or Parent to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any term or provision of this Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

9.10 Enforcement of the Agreement. The Parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

9.11 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations of the Parties hereunder shall be assigned by either of the Parties (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other Party, and any attempt to make any such assignment without such consent shall be null and void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

[SIGNATURE PAGE TO AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION AND MERGER]

Exhibit A-1

Form of Voting and Support Agreement

EXHIBIT A-1

VOTING AND SUPPORT AGREEMENT

(WITH REVOCABLE PROXY)

This VOTING AND SUPPORT AGREEMENT (WITH REVOCABLE PROXY) (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of February 26, 2018 by and among CVB Financial Corp., a California corporation (“Parent”), the shareholder of Community Bank, a California state-chartered bank (“Community”), that is a signatory to this Agreement (the “Shareholder”), and solely for purposes of Sections 7 and 11, Community.

Recitals

A. Parent, Citizens Business Bank, a California state-chartered bank and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Citizens”) and Community are concurrently entering into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Merger (and as it may be amended, the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of the date of this Agreement, pursuant to which Community will merge (the “Merger”) with and into Citizens, whereupon each issued and outstanding share of Community’s common stock (“Community Common Stock”) will be converted into the right to receive the consideration set forth in the Merger Agreement.

B. As a condition to their willingness to enter into the Merger Agreement, Parent and Citizens have required that each director and certain executive officers of Community, solely in his or her capacity as a shareholder and beneficial owner or record holder of Community Common Stock, enter into, and each has agreed to enter into, this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, for good and valuable consideration, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Representations and Warranties of the Shareholder. The Shareholder hereby represents and warrants to Parent as follows:

(a) Authority; No Violation. The Shareholder has all necessary power and authority to enter into and perform all of the Shareholder’s obligations hereunder. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Shareholder (and the Shareholder’s spouse, if the Shares (as defined below) constitute community property) and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Shareholder and such spouse, enforceable against the Shareholder and the Shareholder’s spouse in accordance with its terms, except to the extent enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and subject to the general principles of equity. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Shareholder will not violate any other agreement to which the Shareholder is a party, including any voting agreement, shareholders’ agreement, trust agreement or voting trust.

(b) Ownership of Shares. As used in this Agreement, “Shares” means the shares of Community Common Stock which the Shareholder owns of record or beneficially and has the power to vote (for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any shares underlying unvested Community RSUs), including the shares of Community Common Stock owned of record or

A-1-1

beneficially, with power to vote, as of the date of this Agreement, which are listed on Schedule I hereto (the “Existing Shares”) and the shares of Community Common Stock acquired by the Shareholder, with power to vote, after the date of this Agreement, including any shares acquired upon the vesting of Community RSUs held by Shareholder. The Existing Shares are owned by the Shareholder, subject to applicable community property laws, free and clear of all encumbrances, voting arrangements and commitments of every kind, except as would not restrict the performance of the Shareholder’s obligations under this Agreement. The Shareholder represents and warrants that the Shareholder has sole or shared power to vote all Existing Shares.

2. Voting Agreement and Agreement Not to Transfer.

(a) From the date of this Agreement until the Termination Date (as defined in Section 9 below) (the “Support Period”), the Shareholder hereby agrees that, at any meeting of Community’s shareholders (and at any adjournment or postponement thereof), however called, and in any action taken by written consent of Community’s shareholders in lieu of a meeting, unless Parent otherwise exercises the Proxy (as defined below), the Shareholder will vote or cause to be voted all Shares held by the Shareholder as of the applicable voting record date:

(i) in favor of the approval of the principal terms of the Merger Agreement, the Merger, the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and any other matter that is required to be approved by Community’s shareholders to facilitate the Merger;

(ii) against any action or agreement that to the knowledge of the Shareholder would result in a breach in any material respect of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of Community under this Agreement or the Merger Agreement; and

(iii) Except as otherwise contemplated or permitted by the Merger Agreement or otherwise consented to by Parent, against the following actions (other than the Merger and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement): (A) any extraordinary corporate transactions, such as a merger, consolidation or other business combination involving Community; (B) any sale, lease or transfer of a material amount of the assets of Community; and (C) any other matter, to the extent that such matter requires a Community shareholder vote, that to the knowledge of the Shareholder could be reasonably expected to materially impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, discourage or adversely affect consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

During the Support Period, the Shareholder shall not enter into any agreement or understanding with any Person or entity to vote or give instructions after the Termination Date in any manner inconsistent with clauses (i), (ii), or (iii) of the preceding sentence.

(b) The Shareholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to exercise or perfect, any rights of appraisal, any dissenters’ rights and any similar rights relating to the Merger that the Shareholder may directly or indirectly have by virtue of the ownership of any Shares if the Effective Time occurs.

A-1-2

(c) Except as otherwise contemplated or permitted by the Merger Agreement or otherwise consented to by Parent, during the Support Period, the Shareholder will not, directly or indirectly (i) sell, give, transfer, exchange, pledge, assign, hypothecate, encumber, tender or otherwise dispose of or encumber or make any offer or agreement relating to any of the foregoing with respect to the Shares (collectively, a “Transfer”), (ii) enforce or permit execution of the provisions of any redemption, share purchase or sale, recapitalization or other agreement with Community or any other Person or enter into any contract, option or other agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect to the Transfer of, directly or indirectly, any of the Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable for Shares, any other capital stock of Community or any interest in any of the foregoing with any Person, (iii) except as set forth herein, deposit any Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with respect to such Shares or grant any proxy or power of attorney with respect thereto, (iv) enter into any swap, contract, option or other arrangement or undertaking with respect to the direct or indirect sale, assignment, transfer, exchange or other disposition of or transfer of any interest in or the voting of any Shares, (v) take any action that would make any of the Shareholder’s representations or warranties contained in this Agreement untrue or incorrect in any material respect or have the effect of preventing or disabling the Shareholder from performing the Shareholder’s obligations under this Agreement; provided however, that this Agreement shall not prohibit the Shareholder from (x) disposing of or surrendering to Community shares underlying Community RSUs in connection with the vesting of such Community RSUs for the payment of taxes thereon, if any, or (y) transferring and delivering Shares to any member of Shareholder’s immediate family or to a trust for the benefit of Shareholder or upon the death of Shareholder; provided that such a Transfer shall only be permitted if, as a precondition to such Transfer, the transferee agrees in writing, to be bound by and comply with the provisions of this Agreement. Once Community Shareholder Approval has been obtained, the prohibitions provided for in Section 2(c) shall no longer apply to Shareholder.

3. REVOCABLE PROXY. THE SHAREHOLDER HEREBY REVOKES ANY AND ALL PREVIOUS PROXIES GRANTED WITH RESPECT TO THE SHARES. BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, THE SHAREHOLDER HEREBY GRANTS, OR AGREES TO CAUSE THE APPLICABLE RECORD HOLDER TO GRANT, A REVOCABLE PROXY (THE “PROXY”) APPOINTING PARENT AS THE SHAREHOLDER’S ATTORNEY-IN-FACT AND PROXY, WITH FULL POWER OF SUBSTITUTION, FOR AND IN THE SHAREHOLDER’S NAME, TO VOTE OR OTHERWISE TO UTILIZE SUCH VOTING POWER AS PARENT OR ITS PROXY OR SUBSTITUTE SHALL, IN PARENT’S SOLE DISCRETION, DEEM PROPER WITH RESPECT TO THE SHARES TO EFFECT ANY ACTION CONTEMPLATED BY SECTION 2(a) ABOVE. THE PROXY GRANTED BY THE SHAREHOLDER PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 3 IS GRANTED IN CONSIDERATION OF PARENT ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE MERGER AGREEMENT AND INCURRING CERTAIN RELATED FEES AND EXPENSES, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE PROXY GRANTED BY THE SHAREHOLDER SHALL BE AUTOMATICALLY REVOKED UPON TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS TERMS.

4. No Solicitation. Except as otherwise contemplated or permitted by the Merger

Agreement, and subject to Section 6 hereof, during the Support Period, Shareholder shall not, and shall not permit any attorney or other representative retained by Shareholder to, directly or indirectly, (a) take any of the actions prohibited by [Section 6.09(a)] of the Merger Agreement that Community has agreed not to take, or (b) participate in, directly or indirectly, a “solicitation” of “proxies” (as such terms are used in the rules of the SEC) or powers of attorney or similar

A-1-3

rights to vote, or seek to advise or influence any Person with respect to the voting of, any shares of Community Common Stock in connection with any matter described in Section 2(a) of this Agreement, other than to recommend that shareholders of Community vote in favor of the adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement and the Merger, or (c) (i) otherwise initiate, solicit, induce or knowingly encourage, or knowingly take any action to facilitate the making of, any inquiry, offer or proposal which constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, or (ii) otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding any Acquisition Proposal, or furnish, or otherwise afford access, to any Person (other than Parent or Citizens) to any information or data with respect to Community relating to an Acquisition Proposal. Shareholder agrees immediately to cease and cause to be terminated any activities, discussions or negotiations conducted before the date of this Agreement with any Persons other than Parent or Citizens with respect to any possible Acquisition Proposal and will use Shareholder’s commercially reasonable efforts to inform any representative retained by Shareholder of the obligations undertaken by Shareholder pursuant to this Section 4.

5. Notice of Share Acquisitions. Shareholder hereby agrees to notify Parent promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) in writing of the number of any additional shares of Community Common Stock or other securities of Community of which Shareholder acquires beneficial or record ownership on or after the date of this Agreement.

6. Shareholder Capacity. The Shareholder is entering this Agreement in Shareholder’s capacity as the record or beneficial owner of the Shareholder’s Shares, and not in his or her capacity as a director or executive officer, as applicable, of Community or as a trustee of any Community benefit plan. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall be deemed in any manner to limit or affect in any manner the discretion of the Shareholder to take any action, or fail to take any action, in his or her capacity as a director or executive officer, as applicable, of Community or as a trustee of any benefit plan of Community, that Shareholder determines Shareholder should take (or fail to take) in the exercise of Shareholder’s duties and responsibilities as a director or executive officer, as applicable, of Community or as a trustee of any benefit plan of Community.

7. Stop Transfer Order. In furtherance of this Agreement, Shareholder hereby authorizes and instructs Community to enter a stop transfer order with respect to all of Shareholder’s Shares for the Support Period, except for such Transfers as are as otherwise provided for or permitted by this Agreement. Community agrees that it shall comply with such stop transfer instructions.

8. Ownership Rights. Parent acknowledges and agrees that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in Parent any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to any Shares. All rights, ownership and economic benefits of and relating to the Shares shall remain vested in and belong to the Shareholder, and Parent shall have no authority to exercise any power or authority to direct the Shareholder in the voting of any of the Shares, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.

9. Termination. This Agreement and the obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate upon the first to occur of (a) the Effective Time of the Merger or (b) the termination of

A-1-4

the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms (the “Termination Date”); provided, however, that this Section 9 and Section 11 hereof shall survive any such termination.

10. Specific Performance. Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that irreparable injury will result to Parent in the event of a breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement and that Parent may have no adequate remedy at law with respect thereto. Accordingly, in the event of a material breach of this Agreement, and in addition to any other legal or equitable remedy Parent may have, Shareholder agrees that the entry of a preliminary injunction and a permanent injunction (including, without limitation, specific performance) by a court of competent jurisdiction, to restrain the violation or breach thereof by Shareholder or any Affiliates, agents, or any other persons acting for or with Shareholder in any capacity whatsoever, is an appropriate remedy for any such breach and that Shareholder will not oppose the granting of such relief on the basis that Parent has an adequate remedy at law. Shareholder further agrees that Shareholder will not seek, and agrees to waive any requirement for, the securing or posting of a bond in connection with Parent’s seeking or obtaining such equitable relief. Such injunctive and other equitable remedies are cumulative and Shareholder submits to the jurisdiction of such court in any such action.

11. Miscellaneous.

(a) Definitional Matters.

(i) All capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Merger Agreement.

(ii) The descriptive headings herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

(b) Entire Agreement. This Agreement together with the Merger Agreement constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

(c) Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators and other legal representatives. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

(d) Certain Events. Shareholder agrees that this Agreement and the obligations hereunder shall attach to the Shares owned by Shareholder and shall be binding upon any Person to which legal ownership of such Shares shall pass, whether by operation of law or otherwise, including, without limitation, the Shareholder’s heirs, executors, guardians, administrators, trustees or successors, except to the extent enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and subject to the general principles of equity. Notwithstanding any Transfer of such Shares by a Shareholder, the Shareholder or, as applicable, the

A-1-5

Shareholder’s heirs, executors, guardians, administrators, trustees or successors, shall remain liable for the performance of all obligations under this Agreement.

(e) Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assigned without the prior written consent of the other party hereto, and any purported assignment without such consent shall be null and void.

(f) Modifications. This Agreement shall not be amended, altered or modified in any manner whatsoever, except by a written instrument executed by the parties hereto.

(g) Governing Law. This Agreement and the legal relations between the parties hereto shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of California, without regard to the conflict of laws rules thereof. The state or federal courts located within the state of California shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any and all disputes between the parties hereto, whether in law or equity, arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the agreements, instruments and documents contemplated hereby and the parties consent to and agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts. Each of the parties hereby waives and agrees not to assert in any such dispute, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any claim that

(i) such party is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such courts, (ii) such party and such party’s property is immune from any legal process issued by such courts, or (iii) any litigation or other proceeding commenced in such courts is brought in an inconvenient forum.

(h) Reliance on Counsel and Other Advisors. The Shareholder has consulted with such legal, financial, technical or other experts as the Shareholder deems necessary or desirable before entering into this Agreement.

(i) Validity. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, each of which shall remain in full force and effect.

(j) Counterparts and Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. Signatures sent by facsimile or in “pdf” format by email transmission shall have the same force as manual signed originals.

(k) Notices. Any notices or other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given upon (i) transmitter’s confirmation of a receipt of a transmission to the email address set forth below, (ii) confirmed delivery by a standard overnight carrier or (iii) the expiration of five (5) business days after the day when mailed by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, addressed at the following addresses (or at such other address as the parties hereto shall specify by like notice):

EXHIBIT A-2

PARENT VOTING AND SUPPORT AGREEMENT

This PARENT VOTING AND SUPPORT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of February 26, 2018 by and among Community Bank, a California state-chartered bank (“Community”), the shareholder of CVB Financial Corp., a California corporation (“Parent”), that is a signatory to this Agreement (the “Shareholder”), and solely for purposes of Sections 5 and 9, Parent.

Recitals

B. As a condition to their willingness to enter into the Merger Agreement, Community has required that the Shareholder, solely in the Shareholder’s capacity as a shareholder and beneficial owner or record holder of Parent’s common stock (“Parent Common Stock”), enter into, and the Shareholder has agreed to enter into, this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, for good and valuable consideration, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Representations and Warranties of the Shareholder. The Shareholder hereby represents and warrants to Community as follows:

(b) Ownership of Shares. As used in this Agreement, “Shares” means the shares of Parent Common Stock which the Shareholder owns of record or beneficially and has the power to vote, including the shares of Parent Common Stock owned of record or beneficially, with power to vote, as of the date of this Agreement, which are listed on Schedule I hereto (the

A-2-1

“Existing Shares”) and the shares of Parent Common Stock acquired by the Shareholder, with power to vote, after the date of this Agreement. The Existing Shares are owned by the Shareholder, subject to applicable community property laws, free and clear of all encumbrances, voting arrangements and commitments of every kind, except as would not restrict the performance of the Shareholder’s obligations under this Agreement. The Shareholder represents and warrants that the Shareholder has sole or shared power to vote all Existing Shares.

2. Voting Agreement and Agreement Not to Transfer.

(a) From the date of this Agreement until the Termination Date (as defined in Section 7 below) (the “Support Period”), the Shareholder hereby agrees that, at any meeting of Parent’s shareholders (and at any adjournment or postponement thereof), however called, and in any action taken by written consent of Parent’s shareholders in lieu of a meeting, the Shareholder will vote or cause to be voted all Shares held by the Shareholder as of the applicable voting record date:

(i) in favor of the issuance of shares of Parent Common Stock in the Merger pursuant to the Merger Agreement (the “Parent Share Issuance”) and any other matter that is required to be approved by Parent’s shareholders to facilitate the Merger;

(ii) against any action or agreement that to the knowledge of the Shareholder would result in a breach in any material respect of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of Parent under this Agreement or the Merger Agreement; and

(iii) except as otherwise contemplated or permitted by the Merger Agreement or otherwise consented to by Community, against any matter, to the extent that such matter requires a Parent shareholder vote, that to the knowledge of the Shareholder could be reasonably expected to materially impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, discourage or adversely affect the Parent Share Issuance or the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

(b) Except as otherwise contemplated or permitted by the Merger Agreement or otherwise consented to by Community, during the Support Period, the Shareholder will not, directly or indirectly (i) sell, give, transfer, exchange, pledge, assign, hypothecate, encumber, tender or otherwise dispose of or encumber or make any offer or agreement relating to any of the foregoing with respect to the Shares (collectively, a “Transfer”), (ii) enforce or permit execution of the provisions of any redemption, share purchase or sale, recapitalization or other agreement with Parent or any other Person or enter into any contract, option or other agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect to the Transfer of, directly or indirectly, any of the Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable for Shares, any other capital stock of Parent or any interest in any of the foregoing with any Person, (iii) except as set forth herein, deposit any Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with

A-2-2

respect to such Shares or grant any proxy or power of attorney with respect thereto, (iv) enter into any swap, contract, option or other arrangement or undertaking with respect to the direct or indirect sale, assignment, transfer, exchange or other disposition of or transfer of any interest in or the voting of any Shares, (v) take any action that would make any of the Shareholder’s representations or warranties contained in this Agreement untrue or incorrect in any material respect or have the effect of preventing or disabling the Shareholder from performing the Shareholder’s obligations under this Agreement; provided however, that this Agreement shall not prohibit the Shareholder from (x) disposing of or surrendering to Parent shares underlying any equity award by Parent in connection with the vesting of such equity award for the payment of taxes thereon, if any, or (y) transferring and delivering Shares to any member of Shareholder’s immediate family or to a trust for the benefit of Shareholder or upon the death of Shareholder; provided that such a Transfer shall only be permitted if, as a precondition to such Transfer, the transferee agrees in writing, to be bound by and comply with the provisions of this Agreement. Once Parent Shareholder Approval has been obtained, the prohibitions provided for in Section 2(b) shall no longer apply to Shareholder.

3. Notice of Share Acquisitions. Shareholder hereby agrees to notify Community promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) in writing if at any time during the term of this Agreement Shareholder acquires beneficial or record ownership, individually or in the aggregate, of more than 100,000 shares of Parent Common Stock or other securities of Parent.

4. Shareholder Capacity. The Shareholder is entering this Agreement in Shareholder’s capacity as the record or beneficial owner of the Shareholder’s Shares, and not in the Shareholder’s as a director of Parent or, as applicable, a trustee of any Parent benefit plan. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall be deemed in any manner to limit or affect in any manner the discretion of the Shareholder to take any action, or fail to take any action, in the Shareholder’s capacity as a director of Parent or, as applicable, as a trustee of any benefit plan of Parent, that the Shareholder determines the Shareholder should take (or fail to take) in the exercise of the Shareholder’s duties and responsibilities as a director of Parent or, as applicable, as a trustee of any benefit plan of Parent.

5. Stop Transfer Order. In furtherance of this Agreement, the Shareholder hereby authorizes and instructs Parent to enter a stop transfer order with respect to all of the Shareholder’s Shares for the Support Period, except for such Transfers as are as otherwise provided for or permitted by this Agreement. Parent agrees that it shall comply with such stop transfer instructions.

6. Ownership Rights. Community acknowledges and agrees that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in Community any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to any Shares. All rights, ownership and economic benefits of and relating to the Shares shall remain vested in and belong to the Shareholder, and Community shall have no authority to exercise any power or authority to direct the Shareholder in the voting of any of the Shares, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.

7. Termination. This Agreement and the obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate upon the first to occur of (a) the Effective Time of the Merger or (b) the termination of

A-2-3

the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms (the “Termination Date”); provided, however, that this Section 7 and Section 9 hereof shall survive any such termination.

8. Specific Performance. Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that irreparable injury will result to Community in the event of a breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement and that Community may have no adequate remedy at law with respect thereto. Accordingly, in the event of a material breach of this Agreement, and in addition to any other legal or equitable remedy Community may have, Shareholder agrees that the entry of a preliminary injunction and a permanent injunction (including, without limitation, specific performance) by a court of competent jurisdiction, to restrain the violation or breach thereof by Shareholder or any Affiliates, agents, or any other persons acting for or with Shareholder in any capacity whatsoever, is an appropriate remedy for any such breach and that Shareholder will not oppose the granting of such relief on the basis that Community has an adequate remedy at law. Shareholder further agrees that Shareholder will not seek, and agrees to waive any requirement for, the securing or posting of a bond in connection with Community’s seeking or obtaining such equitable relief. Such injunctive and other equitable remedies are cumulative and Shareholder submits to the jurisdiction of such court in any such action.

9. Miscellaneous.

(a) Definitional Matters.

(i) All capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Merger Agreement.

(ii) The descriptive headings herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

A-2-4

Shareholder’s heirs, executors, guardians, administrators, trustees or successors, shall remain liable for the performance of all obligations under this Agreement.

(e) Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assigned without the prior written consent of the other party hereto, and any purported assignment without such consent shall be null and void.

(f) Modifications. This Agreement shall not be amended, altered or modified in any manner whatsoever, except by a written instrument executed by the parties hereto.

NON-COMPETITION, NON-SOLICITATION AND NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT

This NON-COMPETITION, NON-SOLICITATION AND NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) dated as of February 26, 2018 is entered into by and between Citizens Business Bank, a California state-chartered bank (“Citizens”), and [_______] (“Director”).

RECITALS

A. Citizens, CVB Financial Corp., a California corporation and parent corporation of Citizens (“Parent”), and Community Bank, a California state-chartered bank (“Community”), have entered into that certain Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Merger, dated as of February 26, 2018 (the “Merger Agreement”), which, among other things, contemplates the merger of Community into Citizens (the “Merger”). By operation of the Merger, Citizens will succeed, without further transfer, to the rights, obligations, properties and assets of Community, including all goodwill, trade secrets and other intellectual property of Community, at the Effective Time of the Merger.

B. Director is a director of Community and beneficial owner of Community common stock. Director holds restricted stock units of Community (“RSUs”) that will be converted into shares of Community common stock immediately prior to the Merger as provided in the Community equity plan, the RSU grant agreement and the Merger Agreement, and Director will then be eligible to receive the Merger Consideration set forth in the Merger Agreement. Therefore, Director is entitled to receive substantial monetary payments in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement pursuant to Director’s being the holder of a certain number of RSUs.

C. As a condition and an inducement to Parent’s and Citizens’ willingness to enter into the Merger Agreement, and in order to protect the goodwill, trade secrets and other intellectual property of Community from after the Effective Time of the Merger, Director agrees to refrain from competing with and using trade secrets or soliciting customers or employees of Community and, from and after the Effective Time of the Merger, Citizens as successor to Community, in accordance with the terms hereof.

D. Director and Citizens intend for the provisions of this Agreement to be in compliance with California Business and Professions Code Section 16601 and further intend for it to be fully enforceable.

E. Except as otherwise provided herein, each capitalized term shall have the meaning given to such term in the Merger Agreement. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth:

B1-1

“Customer” means any Person with whom Community has an existing relationship for Financial Services (as defined below) from the date of execution of the Merger Agreement until immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger.

“Enterprise” means the provision of Financial Services conducted by Community at any time from the date of execution of the Merger Agreement until immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger.

“Financial Institution” means a “depository institution” as that term is defined in 12 C.F.R. Section 348.2, and any parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof.

“Financial Services” means any banking, financial or other services provided by a bank, trust company, credit union or other Financial Institution (including any Financial Institution or trust company in formation), including but not limited to the origination, purchasing, selling and servicing of commercial, real estate, residential, construction, consumer and other loans; the engagement of an agent bank to issue credit cards and process credit card transactions and billing; the issuance, origination, sale and servicing of letters of credit and swap arrangements; the solicitation and provision of deposit services and services related thereto; and the provision of wire transfer, direct payment, foreign currency exchange, and other customary community banking services provided by Community prior to the Effective Time of the Merger.

“Prospective Customer” means any Person with whom Community, to Director’s knowledge, has specifically pursued a relationship in writing (including through e-mail correspondence) to provide Financial Services at any time between the date of execution of the Merger Agreement and the Effective Time of the Merger; provided, however, that Community’s general solicitation for business, such as through television or media advertising, does not constitute pursuit of a relationship.

“Trade Secrets” means all secrets and other confidential information, ideas, knowledge, know-how, techniques, secret processes, improvements, discoveries, methods, inventions, sales, financial information, Customers, lists of Customers and Prospective Customers, broker lists, potential brokers, rate sheets, plans, concepts, strategies or products, as well as all documents, reports, drawings, designs, plans and proposals otherwise pertaining to same or relating to the business and properties of Community or its subsidiaries and Parent, Citizens and its subsidiaries of which Director has acquired, or may hereafter acquire, knowledge and possession as a shareholder, director, officer or employee of Community or, if applicable, Parent or Citizens, or as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; provided however, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, “Trade Secrets” shall not include any (i) information which is or has become available from a third party who learned the information independently and is not or was not bound by a confidentiality agreement with respect to such information; or (ii) information readily ascertainable from public, trade or other nonconfidential sources (other than as a result, directly or indirectly, of a disclosure or other dissemination in contravention of a confidentiality agreement).

B1-2

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and respective representations, warranties and covenants, agreements and conditions contained herein and in the Merger Agreement, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Director and Citizens agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS BY DIRECTOR

Director acknowledges that:

(a) Parent and Citizens would not enter into the Merger Agreement unless Director agrees not to enter into an activity that is competitive with or similar to the Enterprise in violation of this Agreement and that, accordingly, this Agreement is a material inducement for Parent and Citizens to enter into and to carry out the terms of the Merger Agreement. Accordingly, Director expressly acknowledges that [he/she] is entering into this Agreement with Citizens to induce Parent and Citizens to enter into and carry out the terms of the Merger Agreement.

(b) By virtue of [his/her] position with Community, Director has developed considerable expertise in the business operations of Community and has access to Trade Secrets of Community. Director recognizes that Parent and Citizens would be irreparably damaged, and its substantial investment in Community materially impaired, if Director were to disclose or make use of any Trade Secrets in violation of the terms of this Agreement, or if Director were to solicit employees of Community or Citizens as successor to Community from and after the Effective Time of the Merger in violation of the terms of this Agreement. Accordingly, Director expressly acknowledges that [he/she] is voluntarily entering into this Agreement and that the terms and conditions of this Agreement are fair and reasonable to Director in all respects.

ARTICLE II

NON-COMPETITION, NON-SOLICITATION AND NON-DISCLOSURE

2.1 Non-competition.

(a) From the date of this Agreement and for the period ending on the expiration of twenty-four (24) months after the Effective Time of the Merger (the “Applicable Period”), Director shall not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of Citizens, own, manage, operate, control, or have any interest in the ownership, management, operation, or control of, or be connected as a shareholder, member, partner, principal, director, officer, manager, investor, organizer, founder, trustee, employee, advisor, consultant, agent, or representative of or with, any business or enterprise engaged in providing Financial Services in any of the following counties: Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego, and Ventura, California.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Director shall not be deemed to be in contravention of subsection (a) of this Section 2.1, if: (y) Director participates in any such business solely (A) as an officer or director of Parent or Citizens or (B) as a passive investor in up to 5% of the equity securities or 10% of the debt securities of a

B1-3

company or partnership, or (z) Director is employed by a business or enterprise that is engaged primarily in a business other than the provision of Financial Services which is competitive with or similar to the Enterprise and Director does not apply in any manner [his/her] expertise at such business or enterprise to that part of such business or enterprise that is competitive with or similar to the Enterprise.

2.2 Non-solicitation. During the Applicable Period, Director shall not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of Parent or Citizens, on behalf of any Financial Institution,

(a) solicit or aid in the solicitation of any Customers or Prospective Customers for Financial Services,

(b) solicit or aid in the solicitation of any officers or employees of Community or, from and after the Effective Time of the Merger, Citizens as successor to Community, or

(c) induce or attempt to induce any Person who is a Customer or Prospective Customer, or induce or attempt to induce any supplier, distributor, officer or employee of Community as of the date hereof or immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger or Citizens, as applicable, in each case, to terminate such person’s relationships with the Surviving Corporation.

The prohibitions set forth in this Section 2.2 shall not apply to general solicitations or attempted solicitations by employment agencies (so long as the agency was not directed to solicit a Person otherwise subject to the prohibitions of this Section 2.2) or the general advertising or general solicitations not specifically directed at such Person(s).

2.3 Trade Secrets. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and at all times after the date hereof, other than for the benefit of Community, or as otherwise approved by Community, and, after the Effective Time of the Merger (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement), other than for the benefit of Parent and/or Citizens or as otherwise approved by Parent or Citizens in writing, Director (i) shall make no use of the Trade Secrets, or any part thereof; (ii) shall not disclose the Trade Secrets, or any part thereof, to any other Person, and (iii) shall deliver, on and after the Effective Time of the Merger, upon the request of Citizens, all documents, reports, drawings, designs, plans, proposals and other tangible evidence of Trade Secrets, now possessed or hereafter acquired by Director, to Parent and/or Citizens.

2.4 Exceptions. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Director may disclose or reveal any information, whether including in whole or in part any Trade Secrets, that Director is required to disclose or reveal under any applicable Law or is otherwise required to disclose or reveal by any Governmental Authority; provided, that Director makes a good faith request that the confidentiality of the Trade Secrets be preserved and, to the extent not prohibited by applicable Laws, gives Citizens prompt notice of such requirement in advance of such disclosure and exercises reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality of such Trade Secrets, including, without limitation, by reasonably cooperating with Parent and Citizens, to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Trade Secrets by the Governmental Authority or other recipient of the Trade Secrets.

B1-4

ARTICLE III

INDEPENDENCE OF OBLIGATIONS

The covenants of Director set forth in this Agreement shall be construed as independent of any other agreement or arrangement between Director, on the one hand, and Citizens on the other, and the existence of any claim or cause of action by Director against Community, Citizens, Parent, or any of their respective Affiliates (or the existence of any claim or cause of action by Citizens or Parent against Director, as the case may be), shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement of such covenants against Director, or against Citizens or Parent, as the case may be.

ARTICLE IV

GENERAL

4.1 Amendments. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, this Agreement may be amended by agreement in writing of the parties hereto at any time.

4.2 Integration. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings of the parties in connection therewith.

4.3 Termination.

(a) This Agreement shall terminate automatically without further action in the event that the Merger Agreement is terminated prior to the Effective Time of the Merger.

(b) Unless sooner terminated pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 4.3, the obligations of Director under Section 2.1 shall terminate at the end of the Applicable Period.

(c) Unless sooner terminated under subsection (a) of this Section 4.3, and except as provided in subsection (b) of this Section 4.3, the obligations of Director under this Agreement shall terminate only on the mutual agreement of Director, on the one hand, and Citizens or the Surviving Corporation, on the other hand.

4.4 Specific Performance. Director acknowledges and agrees that irreparable injury will result to Citizens in the event of a breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement and that Citizens may have no adequate remedy at law with respect thereto. Accordingly, in the event of a material breach of this Agreement, and in addition to any other legal or equitable remedy Citizens may have, Director agrees that the entry of a preliminary injunction and a permanent injunction (including, without limitation, specific performance) by a court of competent jurisdiction, to restrain the violation or breach thereof by Director or any Affiliates, agents, or any other persons acting for or with Director in any capacity whatsoever, is an appropriate remedy for any such breach and that Director will not oppose the granting of such relief on the basis that Citizens has an adequate remedy at law. Director submits to the jurisdiction of such court in any such action. In addition, after discussing the matter with Director, Citizens shall have the right to inform any third party that Citizens reasonably believes to be, or to be

B1-5

contemplating, participating with Director or receiving from Director assistance in violation of this Agreement, of the terms of this Agreement and the rights of Citizens hereunder, and that participation by any such persons with Director in activities in violation of Director’s agreement with Citizens set forth in this Agreement may give rise to claims by Citizens against such third party in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled at law or in equity.

4.5 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unreasonable as to duration, activity or subject, it shall be deemed to extend only over the maximum duration, range of activities or subjects as to which such provision shall be valid and enforceable under applicable Law. If any provisions shall, for any reason, be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

4.6 Notices. Any notice or communication required or permitted hereunder, shall be deemed to have been given if in writing and (a) delivered in person, (b) delivered by confirmed email transmission, (c) sent by overnight carrier, postage prepaid with return receipt requested or (d) mailed by certified or registered mail postage prepaid with return receipt requested, addressed as follows:

This NON-COMPETITION, NON-SOLICITATION AND NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT AND RELEASE (this “Agreement”) dated as of February 26, 2018 is entered into by and between Citizens Business Bank, a California state-chartered bank (“Citizens”), and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ (“Shareholder”).

RECITALS

B. Shareholder is a beneficial owner of Community common stock and an executive officer of Community. Shareholder holds restricted stock units of Community (“RSUs”) that will be converted into shares of Community common stock immediately prior to the Merger as provided in the Community equity plan, the RSU grant agreement and the Merger Agreement, and Shareholder will then be eligible to receive the Merger Consideration set forth in the Merger Agreement.

C. Shareholder is entitled to receive substantial monetary payments in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement as a shareholder of Community and pursuant to Shareholder’s change in control/severance agreement by and between Shareholder and Community.

D. As a condition and an inducement to Parent’s and Citizens’ willingness to enter into the Merger Agreement, and in order to protect the goodwill, trade secrets and other intellectual property of Community from after the Effective Time of the Merger, Shareholder agrees to refrain from competing with and using trade secrets or soliciting customers or employees of Community and, from and after the Effective Time of the Merger, Citizens as successor to Community, in accordance with the terms hereof.

E. Shareholder and Citizens intend for the provisions of this Agreement to be in compliance with California Business and Professions Code Section 16601 and further intend for it to be fully enforceable.

“Customer” means any Person (i) with whom Community has an existing relationship for Financial Services (as defined below) from the date of execution of the Merger Agreement until immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger, or (ii) who is a customer of Citizens immediately prior to termination of Shareholder’s employment or other position with Citizens, if applicable.

ARTICLE I

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS BY SHAREHOLDER

Shareholder acknowledges that:

(a) Parent and Citizens would not enter into the Merger Agreement unless Shareholder agrees not to enter into an activity that is competitive with or similar to the Enterprise in violation of this Agreement and that, accordingly, this Agreement is a material inducement for Parent and Citizens to enter into and to carry out the terms of the Merger Agreement. Accordingly, Shareholder expressly acknowledges that he is entering into this Agreement with Citizens to induce Parent and Citizens to enter into and carry out the terms of the Merger Agreement.

(b) By virtue of his position with Community and, if applicable, Parent and/or Citizens after the Effective Time of the Merger, Shareholder has developed considerable expertise in the business operations of Community and, if applicable, will develop considerable expertise in the business operations of Parent and Citizens and has access to Trade Secrets of Community and, if applicable, will have access to Trade Secrets of Parent and Citizens. Shareholder recognizes that Parent and Citizens would be irreparably damaged, and its substantial investment in Community materially impaired, if Shareholder were to enter into an activity that is competitive with or similar to the Enterprise in violation of the terms of this Agreement, if Shareholder were to disclose or make use of any Trade Secrets in violation of the terms of this Agreement, or if Shareholder were to solicit Customers, Prospective Customers or employees of Community or Citizens as successor to Community from and after the Effective Time of the Merger in violation of the terms of this Agreement. Accordingly, Shareholder expressly acknowledges that he is voluntarily entering into this Agreement and that the terms and conditions of this Agreement are fair and reasonable to Shareholder in all respects.

ARTICLE II

2.4 Exceptions. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Shareholder may disclose or reveal any information, whether including in whole or in part any Trade Secrets, that Shareholder is required to disclose or reveal under any applicable Law or is otherwise required to disclose or reveal by any Governmental Authority; provided, that Shareholder makes a good faith request that the confidentiality of the Trade Secrets be preserved and, to the extent not prohibited by applicable Laws, gives Citizens prompt notice of such requirement in advance of such disclosure and exercises reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality of such Trade Secrets, including, without limitation, by reasonably cooperating with Parent and Citizens, to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Trade Secrets by the Governmental Authority or other recipient of the Trade Secrets.

ARTICLE III

RELEASE

3.1 Release. From and after the Effective Time of the Merger, Shareholder on Shareholder’s own behalf and on behalf of Shareholder’s past, present and future affiliates, agents, attorneys, administrators, heirs, executors, spouses, trustees, beneficiaries, representatives, successors and assigns claiming by or through Shareholder (collectively, the “Related Persons”), hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably RELEASES and FOREVER DISCHARGES (the “Release”) Community and its current or former affiliates, subsidiaries, subdivisions, officers, directors, employees, managers, partners, principals, advisors, agents, stockholders, members, investors, equity holders or other representatives (including attorneys, accountants, consultants, bankers and financial advisors), successors (including Citizens), predecessors or assigns (each, a “Released Party” and collectively, the “Released Parties”) from the following (collectively, the “Releasing Party Claims”): any and all claims, demands, allegations, assertions, complaints, controversies, charges, duties (fiduciary or otherwise), breaches of duties, grievances, rights, causes of action, actions, suits, liabilities, debts, obligations, promises, commitments, agreements, guarantees, endorsements, duties, damages, costs, losses, debts and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs incurred) of any nature whatsoever (whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, disclosed or undisclosed, matured or unmatured, accrued or unaccrued, asserted or unasserted, absolute or contingent, determined or conditional, express or implied, fixed or variable and whether vicarious, derivative, joint, several or secondary) relating to the Released Parties, including, without limitation, any and all actions, activities, assets, liabilities and the ownership of any securities, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, absolute or contingent, direct or indirect or nominally or beneficially possessed or claimed by Shareholder, whether the same be in administrative proceedings, in arbitration, at law, in equity or mixed, which Shareholder ever had, now has or hereafter may have against any or all of the Released Parties, in respect of any and all agreements, liabilities or obligations entered into or incurred on or prior to the date hereof, or in respect of any event occurring or circumstances existing on or prior to the date

hereof, whether or not relating to claims pending on, or asserted after, the date hereof; provided, however, that the foregoing release does not extend to, include or restrict or limit in any way, and each Releasing Party hereby reserves such Releasing Party’s rights, if any, and the right of the other Releasing Parties, if any, to pursue any and all Releasing Party Claims that such Releasing Party may now or in the future have solely on account of (a) any existing rights of such Releasing Party under any severance agreement, employment agreement or other employee

B3-5

benefit plan of Community of which Shareholder is a party or is otherwise a beneficiary thereof, (b) any rights or claims for benefits (other than any severance or deferred compensation) under benefit plans of Community (or its successor) (including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, COBRA benefits and rights to account balances, earnings thereon and forfeiture allocations), (c) rights under any applicable workers’ compensation statutes arising out of compensable job related injuries, (d) any claims relating to salary, vacation pay or other compensation received in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, (e) any rights to indemnification for serving as an officer, director, agent or employee of Community or any affiliates of Community, or serving at the request of Community as a trustee or fiduciary of any benefit plan, provided that such rights exist as a matter of law or contract or pursuant to the corporate documents of such applicable company, (f) any rights under the Merger Agreement to the Merger Consideration and (g) any claim which, as a matter of applicable Law, cannot be released.

3.2 ADEA. Without limiting the scope of the Release in any way, Shareholder certifies that the Release constitutes a knowing and voluntary waiver of any and all rights or claims that exist or that he/she may have or may claim to have under the Federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”), as amended by the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990, which is set forth at 29 U.S.C. § § 621, et seq. The Release does not govern any rights or claims that may arise under the ADEA after the date the Release is signed by Shareholder. If Shareholder is age 40 or over, (a) he/she is aware of his/her right to revoke the Release at any time within the seven (7)-day period following the date he/she signs it and that the Release shall not become effective or enforceable until the seven (7)-day revocation period expires without revocation; and (b) he/she has been given an opportunity to consider fully the terms of the Release for forty-five (45) days, although Shareholder is not required to wait forty-five (45) days before signing the Release. Shareholder understands that he or she will relinquish any right to any retention bonuses set forth in the Community retention bonus plan if he/she exercises his/her right to revoke it.

3.3 No Additional Facts. Shareholder agree that because the Release specifically covers known and unknown claims, Shareholder waives any and all rights under Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, or under any comparable law of any other jurisdiction. Section 1542 states:

“A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.”

Shareholder hereby expressly waives any rights Shareholder may have under Section 1542 of the California Civil Code or any other applicable law to preserve Releasing Party Claims which Shareholder does not know or suspect to exist in Shareholder’s favor at the time of executing the release provided in Section 3.1. Shareholder understands and acknowledges that Shareholder may discover facts different from, or in addition to, those which Shareholder knows or believes to be true with respect to the claims released herein, and agrees that the release provided in Section 3.1 shall be and remain effective in all respects notwithstanding any subsequent discovery of different or additional facts. If Shareholder discovers that any fact relied upon in entering into the release provided in Section 3.1 was untrue, or that any fact was concealed, or

B3-6

that an understanding of the facts or law was incorrect, Shareholder shall not be entitled to any relief as a result thereof, and Shareholder surrenders any rights Shareholder might have to rescind the release provided in Section 3.1 on any ground. Such release is intended to be and is final and binding regardless of any claim of misrepresentation, promise made with the intention of performing, concealment of fact, mistake of law, or any other circumstances whatsoever.

3.4 No Suits or Actions. Shareholder hereby irrevocably covenants to refrain from, and shall cause each of its Related Persons to refrain from, asserting any claim or demand, or commencing, instituting or causing to be commenced, any suit, proceeding or manner of action of any kind against any Released Party based upon any Releasing Party Claim. If Shareholder (or any of its Related Persons) does any of the things mentioned in the immediately preceding sentence, then Shareholder shall indemnify the Released Parties (or any of them) in the amount of the value of any final judgment or settlement (monetary or other) and any related cost (including reasonable legal fees) entered against, paid or incurred by the Released Parties (or any of them).

3.5 Revocation. Shareholder acknowledges that Shareholder (a) has read the Release, (b) has been provided a full and ample opportunity to study it, including a period of at least forty-five (45) days if Shareholder is over forty (40) years old (or, if less than forty (40) years old, at least ten (10) days) within which to consider it (although Shareholder may voluntarily choose to execute the Release earlier), and (c) is signing it voluntarily with full knowledge that it is intended, to the maximum extent permitted by law, as a complete release and waiver of any and all claims, including without limitation any claims under ADEA. To revoke, Shareholder must send a written notice of revocation to Citizens at the address set forth in Section 5.6 of this Agreement.

3.6 No Assignment of Releasing Party Claims. Shareholder represents and warrants to the Released Parties that there has been no assignment or other transfer of any interest in any Releasing Party Claim.

ARTICLE IV

INDEPENDENCE OF OBLIGATIONS

The covenants of Shareholder set forth in this Agreement shall be construed as independent of any other agreement or arrangement between Shareholder, on the one hand, and Citizens on the other, and the existence of any claim or cause of action by Shareholder against Community, Citizens, Parent, or any of their respective Affiliates (or the existence of any claim or cause of action by Citizens or Parent against Shareholder, as the case may be), shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement of such covenants against Shareholder, or against Citizens or Parent, as the case may be.

B3-7

ARTICLE V

GENERAL

5.1 Amendments. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, this Agreement may be amended by agreement in writing of the parties hereto at any time.

5.3 Termination.

(a) This Agreement shall terminate automatically without further action in the event that the Merger Agreement is terminated prior to the Effective Time of the Merger.

(b) Unless sooner terminated pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 5.3, the obligations of Shareholder under Sections 2.1 and 2.2 shall terminate at the end of the Applicable Period. The Release shall continue to be in full force and effect indefinitely, unless this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 5.3(a).

(c) Unless sooner terminated under subsection (a) of this Section 5.3, and except as provided in subsection (b) of this Section 5.3, the obligations of Shareholder under this Agreement shall terminate only on the mutual agreement of Shareholder, on the one hand, and Citizens or the Surviving Corporation, on the other hand.

5.4 Specific Performance. Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that irreparable injury will result to Citizens in the event of a breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement and that Citizens may have no adequate remedy at law with respect thereto. Accordingly, in the event of a material breach of this Agreement, and in addition to any other legal or equitable remedy Citizens may have, Shareholder agrees that the entry of a preliminary injunction and a permanent injunction (including, without limitation, specific performance) by a court of competent jurisdiction, to restrain the violation or breach thereof by Shareholder or any Affiliates, agents, or any other persons acting for or with Shareholder in any capacity whatsoever, is an appropriate remedy for any such breach and that Shareholder will not oppose the granting of such relief on the basis that Citizens has an adequate remedy at law. Shareholder submits to the jurisdiction of such court in any such action. In addition, after discussing the matter with Shareholder, Citizens shall have the right to inform any third party that Citizens reasonably believes to be, or to be contemplating, participating with Shareholder or receiving from Shareholder assistance in violation of this Agreement, of the terms of this Agreement and the rights of Citizens hereunder, and that participation by any such persons with Shareholder in activities in violation of Shareholder’s agreement with Citizens set forth in this Agreement may give rise to claims by Citizens against such third party in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled at law or in equity.

B3-8

provision shall be valid and enforceable under applicable Law. If any provisions shall, for any reason, be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

Any notice or communication required or permitted hereunder, shall be deemed to have been given if in writing and (a) delivered in person, (b) delivered by confirmed email transmission, (c) sent by overnight carrier, postage prepaid with return receipt requested or (d) mailed by certified or registered mail postage prepaid with return receipt requested, addressed as follows:

3.1 Release. From and after the Effective Time of the Merger, Executive on Executive’s own behalf and on behalf of Executive’s past, present and future affiliates, agents, attorneys, administrators, heirs, executors, spouses, trustees, beneficiaries, representatives, successors and assigns claiming by or through Executive (collectively, the “Related Persons”), hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably RELEASES and FOREVER DISCHARGES (the “Release”) Community and its current or former affiliates, subsidiaries, subdivisions, officers, directors, employees, managers, partners, principals, advisors, agents, stockholders, members, investors, equity holders or other representatives (including attorneys, accountants, consultants, bankers and financial advisors), successors (including Citizens), predecessors or assigns (each, a “Released Party” and collectively, the “Released Parties”) from the following (collectively, the “Releasing Party Claims”): any and all claims, demands, allegations, assertions, complaints, controversies, charges, duties (fiduciary or otherwise), breaches of duties, grievances, rights, causes of action, actions, suits, liabilities, debts, obligations, promises, commitments, agreements, guarantees, endorsements, duties, damages, costs, losses, debts and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs incurred) of any nature whatsoever (whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, disclosed or undisclosed, matured or unmatured, accrued or unaccrued, asserted or unasserted, absolute or contingent, determined or conditional, express or implied, fixed or variable and whether vicarious, derivative, joint, several or secondary) relating to the Released Parties, including, without limitation, any and all actions, activities, assets, liabilities and the ownership of any securities, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, absolute or contingent, direct or indirect or nominally or beneficially possessed or claimed by Executive, whether the same be in administrative proceedings, in arbitration, at law, in equity or mixed, which Executive ever had, now has or hereafter may have against any or all of the Released Parties, in respect of any and all agreements, liabilities or obligations entered into or incurred on or prior to the date hereof, or in respect of any event occurring or circumstances existing on or prior to the date hereof, whether or not relating to claims pending on, or asserted after, the date hereof; provided, however, that the foregoing release does not

B4-5

extend to, include or restrict or limit in any way, and each Releasing Party hereby reserves such Releasing Party’s rights, if any, and the right of the other Releasing Parties, if any, to pursue any and all Releasing Party Claims that such Releasing Party may now or in the future have solely on account of (a) any existing rights of such Releasing Party under any severance agreement, employment agreement or other employee benefit plan of Community of which Executive is a party or is otherwise a beneficiary thereof, (b) any rights or claims for benefits (other than any severance or deferred compensation) under benefit plans of Community (or its successor) (including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, COBRA benefits and rights to account balances, earnings thereon and forfeiture allocations), (c) rights under any applicable workers’ compensation statutes arising out of compensable job related injuries, (d) any claims relating to salary, vacation pay or other compensation received in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, (e) any rights to indemnification for serving as an officer, director, agent or employee of Community or any affiliates of Community, or serving at the request of Community as a trustee or fiduciary of any benefit plan, provided that such rights exist as a matter of law or contract or pursuant to the corporate documents of such applicable company, (f) any rights under the Merger Agreement to the Merger Consideration and (g) any claim which, as a matter of applicable Law, cannot be released.

3.2 ADEA. Without limiting the scope of the Release in any way, Executive certifies that the Release constitutes a knowing and voluntary waiver of any and all rights or claims that exist or that he/she may have or may claim to have under the Federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”), as amended by the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990, which is set forth at 29 U.S.C. § § 621, et seq. The Release does not govern any rights or claims that may arise under the ADEA after the date the Release is signed by Executive. If Executive is age 40 or over, (a) he/she is aware of his/her right to revoke the Release at any time within the seven (7)-day period following the date he/she signs it and that the Release shall not become effective or enforceable until the seven (7)-day revocation period expires without revocation; and (b) he/she has been given an opportunity to consider fully the terms of the Release for forty-five (45) days, although Executive is not required to wait forty-five (45) days before signing the Release. Executive understands that he or she will relinquish any right to any retention bonuses set forth in the Retention Bonus Agreement if he/she exercises his/her right to revoke it.

3.3 No Additional Facts. Executive agree that because the Release specifically covers known and unknown claims, Executive waives any and all rights under Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, or under any comparable law of any other jurisdiction. Section 1542 states:

Executive hereby expressly waives any rights Executive may have under Section 1542 of the California Civil Code or any other applicable law to preserve Releasing Party Claims which Executive does not know or suspect to exist in Executive’s favor at the time of executing the release provided in Section 3.1. Executive understands and acknowledges that Executive may discover facts different from, or in addition to, those which Executive knows or believes to be

B4-6

true with respect to the claims released herein, and agrees that the release provided in Section 3.1 shall be and remain effective in all respects notwithstanding any subsequent discovery of different or additional facts. If Executive discovers that any fact relied upon in entering into the release provided in Section 3.1 was untrue, or that any fact was concealed, or that an understanding of the facts or law was incorrect, Executive shall not be entitled to any relief as a result thereof, and Executive surrenders any rights Executive might have to rescind the release provided in Section 3.1 on any ground. Such release is intended to be and is final and binding regardless of any claim of misrepresentation, promise made with the intention of performing, concealment of fact, mistake of law, or any other circumstances whatsoever.

3.4 No Suits or Actions. Executive hereby irrevocably covenants to refrain from, and shall cause each of its Related Persons to refrain from, asserting any claim or demand, or commencing, instituting or causing to be commenced, any suit, proceeding or manner of action of any kind against any Released Party based upon any Releasing Party Claim. If Executive (or any of its Related Persons) does any of the things mentioned in the immediately preceding sentence, then Executive shall indemnify the Released Parties (or any of them) in the amount of the value of any final judgment or settlement (monetary or other) and any related cost (including reasonable legal fees) entered against, paid or incurred by the Released Parties (or any of them).

3.5 Revocation. Executive acknowledges that Executive (a) has read the Release, (b) has been provided a full and ample opportunity to study it, including a period of at least forty-five (45) days if Executive is over forty (40) years old (or, if less than forty (40) years old, at least ten (10) days) within which to consider it (although Executive may voluntarily choose to execute the Release earlier), and (c) is signing it voluntarily with full knowledge that it is intended, to the maximum extent permitted by law, as a complete release and waiver of any and all claims, including without limitation any claims under ADEA. To revoke, Executive must send a written notice of revocation to Citizens at the address set forth in Section 5.6 of this Agreement.

3.6 No Assignment of Releasing Party Claims. Executive represents and warrants to the Released Parties that there has been no assignment or other transfer of any interest in any Releasing Party Claim.

ARTICLE IV

INDEPENDENCE OF OBLIGATIONS

The covenants of Executive set forth in this Agreement shall be construed as independent of any other agreement or arrangement between Executive, on the one hand, and Citizens on the other, and the existence of any claim or cause of action by Executive against Community, Citizens, Parent, or any of their respective Affiliates (or the existence of any claim or cause of action by Citizens or Parent against Executive, as the case may be), shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement of such covenants against Executive, or against Citizens or Parent, as the case may be.

B4-7

ARTICLE V

GENERAL

5.1 Amendments. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, this Agreement may be amended by agreement in writing of the parties hereto at any time.

5.3 Termination.

(a) This Agreement shall terminate automatically without further action in the event that the Merger Agreement is terminated prior to the Effective Time of the Merger.

(b) Unless sooner terminated pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 5.3, the obligations of Executive under Sections 2.1 and 2.2 shall terminate at the end of the Applicable Period. The Release shall continue to be in full force and effect indefinitely, unless this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 5.3(a).

(c) Unless sooner terminated under subsection (a) of this Section 5.3, and except as provided in subsection (b) of this Section 5.3, the obligations of Executive under this Agreement shall terminate only on the mutual agreement of Executive, on the one hand, and Citizens or the Surviving Corporation, on the other hand.

5.4 Specific Performance. Executive acknowledges and agrees that irreparable injury will result to Citizens in the event of a breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement and that Citizens may have no adequate remedy at law with respect thereto. Accordingly, in the event of a material breach of this Agreement, and in addition to any other legal or equitable remedy Citizens may have, Executive agrees that the entry of a preliminary injunction and a permanent injunction (including, without limitation, specific performance) by a court of competent jurisdiction, to restrain the violation or breach thereof by Executive or any Affiliates, agents, or any other persons acting for or with Executive in any capacity whatsoever, is an appropriate remedy for any such breach and that Executive will not oppose the granting of such relief on the basis that Citizens has an adequate remedy at law. Executive submits to the jurisdiction of such court in any such action. In addition, after discussing the matter with Executive, Citizens shall have the right to inform any third party that Citizens reasonably believes to be, or to be contemplating, participating with Executive or receiving from Executive assistance in violation of this Agreement, of the terms of this Agreement and the rights of Citizens hereunder, and that participation by any such persons with Executive in activities in violation of Executive’s agreement with Citizens set forth in this Agreement may give rise to claims by Citizens against such third party in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled at law or in equity.

B4-8

reason, be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

“Financial Institution” means a “depository institution” as that term is defined in 12 C.F.R. Section 348.2, and any parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof.

“Prospective Customer” means any Person (i) with whom Community has, to Employee’s knowledge, specifically pursued a relationship in writing (including through e-mail correspondence) to provide Financial Services at any time between the date of execution of the Merger Agreement and the Effective Time of the Merger or (ii) with whom Citizens has, to Employee’s knowledge, specifically pursued a relationship in writing (including through e-mail correspondence) to provide Financial Services at any time prior to termination of Employee’s employment or other position with Citizens, if applicable; provided, however, that Community’s or Citizens’ general solicitation for business, such as through television or media advertising, does not constitute pursuit of a relationship.

ARTICLE I

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS BY EMPLOYEE

Employee acknowledges that:

(a) Parent and Citizens would not enter into the Merger Agreement unless Employee agrees not to use Trade Secrets or solicit customers and employees in violation of this Agreement and that, accordingly, this Agreement is a material inducement for Parent and Citizens to enter into and to carry out the terms of the Merger Agreement. Accordingly, Employee expressly acknowledges that [he/she] is entering into this Agreement with Citizens to induce Parent and Citizens to enter into and carry out the terms of the Merger Agreement.

(b) Employee acknowledges that by virtue of [his/her] position with Community and, if applicable, Parent and/or Citizens after the Effective Time of the Merger, Employee has developed considerable expertise in the business operations of Community and, if applicable, will develop considerable expertise in the business operations of Parent and Citizens and has access to Trade Secrets of Community and, if applicable, will have access to Trade Secrets of Parent and Citizens upon the Effective Time of the Merger. Employee recognizes that Parent and Citizens would be irreparably damaged, and its substantial investment in Community materially impaired, if Employee were to disclose or make use of any Trade Secrets in violation of the terms of this Agreement, or if Employee were to solicit employees of Community or Citizens as successor to Community from and after the Effective Time of the Merger in violation of the terms of this Agreement. Accordingly, Employee expressly acknowledges that [he/she] is voluntarily entering into this Agreement and that the terms and conditions of this Agreement are fair and reasonable to Employee in all respects.

ARTICLE II

NON-SOLICITATION AND NON-DISCLOSURE

2.1 Non-solicitation. From the date of this Agreement and for the period ending on the expiration of twelve (12) months after the Effective Time of the Merger (the “Applicable Period”), Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of Parent or Citizens, on behalf of any Financial Institution,

The prohibitions set forth in this Section 2.1 shall not apply to general solicitations or attempted solicitations by employment agencies (so long as the agency was not directed to solicit a Person otherwise subject to the prohibitions of this Section 2.1) or the general advertising or general solicitations not specifically directed at such Person(s).

2.2 Trade Secrets. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and at all times after the date hereof, other than for the benefit of Community, or as otherwise approved by Community, and, after the Effective Time of the Merger (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement), other than for the benefit of Parent and/or Citizens or as otherwise approved by Parent or Citizens in writing, Employee (i) shall make no use of the Trade Secrets, or any part thereof; (ii) shall not disclose the Trade Secrets, or any part thereof, to any other Person, and (iii) shall deliver, on and after the Effective Time of the Merger, upon the request of Citizens, all documents, reports, drawings, designs, plans, proposals and other tangible evidence of Trade Secrets, now possessed or hereafter acquired by Employee, to Parent and/or Citizens.

2.3 Exceptions. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Employee may disclose or reveal any information, whether including in whole or in part any Trade Secrets, that Employee is required to disclose or reveal under any applicable Law or is otherwise required to disclose or reveal by any Governmental Authority; provided, that Employee makes a good faith request that the confidentiality of the Trade Secrets be preserved and, to the extent not prohibited by applicable Laws, gives Citizens prompt notice of such requirement in advance of such disclosure and exercises reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality of such Trade Secrets, including, without limitation, by reasonably cooperating with Parent and Citizens, to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Trade Secrets by the Governmental Authority or other recipient of the Trade Secrets.

ARTICLE III

RELEASE

3.1 Release. From and after the Effective Time of the Merger, Employee on Employee’s own behalf and on behalf of Employee’s past, present and future affiliates, agents, attorneys, administrators, heirs, executors, spouses, trustees, beneficiaries, representatives, successors and assigns claiming by or through Employee (collectively, the “Related Persons”), hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably RELEASES and FOREVER DISCHARGES (the “Release”) Community and its current or former affiliates, subsidiaries, subdivisions, officers, directors, employees, managers, partners, principals, advisors, agents, stockholders, members, investors, equity holders or other representatives (including attorneys, accountants, consultants, bankers and financial advisors), successors (including Citizens), predecessors or assigns (each, a “Released Party” and collectively, the “Released Parties”) from the following (collectively, the “Releasing Party Claims”): any and all claims, demands, allegations,

B5-4

assertions, complaints, controversies, charges, duties (fiduciary or otherwise), breaches of duties, grievances, rights, causes of action, actions, suits, liabilities, debts, obligations, promises, commitments, agreements, guarantees, endorsements, duties, damages, costs, losses, debts and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs incurred) of any nature whatsoever (whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, disclosed or undisclosed, matured or unmatured, accrued or unaccrued, asserted or unasserted, absolute or contingent, determined or conditional, express or implied, fixed or variable and whether vicarious, derivative, joint, several or secondary) relating to the Released Parties, including, without limitation, any and all actions, activities, assets, liabilities and the ownership of any securities, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, absolute or contingent, direct or indirect or nominally or beneficially possessed or claimed by Employee, whether the same be in administrative proceedings, in arbitration, at law, in equity or mixed, which Employee ever had, now has or hereafter may have against any or all of the Released Parties, in respect of any and all agreements, liabilities or obligations entered into or incurred on or prior to the date hereof, or in respect of any event occurring or circumstances existing on or prior to the date hereof, whether or not relating to claims pending on, or asserted after, the date hereof; provided, however, that the foregoing release does not extend to, include or restrict or limit in any way, and each Releasing Party hereby reserves such Releasing Party’s rights, if any, and the right of the other Releasing Parties, if any, to pursue any and all Releasing Party Claims that such Releasing Party may now or in the future have solely on account of (a) any existing rights of such Releasing Party under any severance agreement, employment agreement or other employee benefit plan of Community of which Employee is a party or is otherwise a beneficiary thereof, (b) any rights or claims for benefits (other than any severance or deferred compensation) under benefit plans of Community (or its successor) (including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, COBRA benefits and rights to account balances, earnings thereon and forfeiture allocations), (c) rights under any applicable workers’ compensation statutes arising out of compensable job related injuries, (d) any claims relating to salary, vacation pay or other compensation received in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, (e) any rights to indemnification for serving as an officer, director, agent or employee of Community or any affiliates of Community, or serving at the request of Community as a trustee or fiduciary of any benefit plan, provided that such rights exist as a matter of law or contract or pursuant to the corporate documents of such applicable company, (f) any rights under the Merger Agreement to the Merger Consideration and (g) any claim which, as a matter of applicable Law, cannot be released.

3.2 ADEA. Without limiting the scope of the Release in any way, Employee certifies that the Release constitutes a knowing and voluntary waiver of any and all rights or claims that exist or that he/she may have or may claim to have under the Federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”), as amended by the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990, which is set forth at 29 U.S.C. § § 621, et seq. The Release does not govern any rights or claims that may arise under the ADEA after the date the Release is signed by Employee. If Employee is age 40 or over, (a) he/she is aware of his/her right to revoke the Release at any time within the seven (7)-day period following the date he/she signs it and that the Release shall not become effective or enforceable until the seven (7)-day revocation period expires without revocation; and (b) he/she has been given an opportunity to consider fully the terms of the Release for forty-five (45) days, although Employee is not required to wait forty-five (45) days before signing the Release. Employee understands that he or she will relinquish any right to any retention bonuses set forth in the Community retention bonus plan if he/she exercises his/her right to revoke it.

B5-5

3.3 No Additional Facts. Employee agree that because the Release specifically covers known and unknown claims, Employee waives any and all rights under Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, or under any comparable law of any other jurisdiction. Section 1542 states:

Employee hereby expressly waives any rights Employee may have under Section 1542 of the California Civil Code or any other applicable law to preserve Releasing Party Claims which Employee does not know or suspect to exist in Employee’s favor at the time of executing the release provided in Section 3.1. Employee understands and acknowledges that Employee may discover facts different from, or in addition to, those which Employee knows or believes to be true with respect to the claims released herein, and agrees that the release provided in Section 3.1 shall be and remain effective in all respects notwithstanding any subsequent discovery of different or additional facts. If Employee discovers that any fact relied upon in entering into the release provided in Section 3.1 was untrue, or that any fact was concealed, or that an understanding of the facts or law was incorrect, Employee shall not be entitled to any relief as a result thereof, and Employee surrenders any rights Employee might have to rescind the release provided in Section 3.1 on any ground. Such release is intended to be and is final and binding regardless of any claim of misrepresentation, promise made with the intention of performing, concealment of fact, mistake of law, or any other circumstances whatsoever.

3.4 No Suits or Actions. Employee hereby irrevocably covenants to refrain from, and shall cause each of its Related Persons to refrain from, asserting any claim or demand, or commencing, instituting or causing to be commenced, any suit, proceeding or manner of action of any kind against any Released Party based upon any Releasing Party Claim. If Employee (or any of its Related Persons) does any of the things mentioned in the immediately preceding sentence, then Employee shall indemnify the Released Parties (or any of them) in the amount of the value of any final judgment or settlement (monetary or other) and any related cost (including reasonable legal fees) entered against, paid or incurred by the Released Parties (or any of them).

3.5 Revocation. Employee acknowledges that Employee (a) has read the Release, (b) has been provided a full and ample opportunity to study it, including a period of at least forty-five (45) days if Employee is over forty (40) years old (or, if less than forty (40) years old, at least ten (10) days) within which to consider it (although Employee may voluntarily choose to execute the Release earlier), and (c) is signing it voluntarily with full knowledge that it is intended, to the maximum extent permitted by law, as a complete release and waiver of any and all claims, including without limitation any claims under ADEA. To revoke, Employee must send a written notice of revocation to Citizens at the address set forth in Section 5.6 of this Agreement.

3.6 No Assignment of Releasing Party Claims. Employee represents and warrants to the Released Parties that there has been no assignment or other transfer of any interest in any Releasing Party Claim.

B5-6

ARTICLE IV

INDEPENDENCE OF OBLIGATIONS

The covenants of Employee set forth in this Agreement shall be construed as independent of any other agreement or arrangement between Employee, on the one hand, and Citizens on the other, and the existence of any claim or cause of action by Employee against Community, Citizens, Parent, or any of their respective Affiliates (or the existence of any claim or cause of action by Citizens or Parent against Employee, as the case may be), shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement of such covenants against Employee, or against Citizens or Parent, as the case may be.

ARTICLE V

GENERAL

5.1 Amendments. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, this Agreement may be amended by agreement in writing of the parties hereto at any time.

5.3 Termination.

(a) This Agreement shall terminate automatically without further action in the event that the Merger Agreement is terminated prior to the Effective Time of the Merger.

(b) Unless sooner terminated pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 5.3, the obligations of Employee under Sections 2.1 and 2.2 shall terminate at the end of the Applicable Period. The Release shall continue to be in full force and effect indefinitely, unless this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 5.3(a).

(c) Unless sooner terminated under subsection (a) of this Section 5.3, and except as provided in subsection (b) of this Section 5.3, the obligations of Employee under this Agreement shall terminate only on the mutual agreement of Employee, on the one hand, and Citizens or the Surviving Corporation, on the other hand.

5.4 Specific Performance. Employee acknowledges and agrees that irreparable injury will result to Citizens in the event of a breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement and that Citizens may have no adequate remedy at law with respect thereto. Accordingly, in the event of a material breach of this Agreement, and in addition to any other legal or equitable remedy Citizens may have, Employee agrees that the entry of a preliminary injunction and a permanent injunction (including, without limitation, specific performance) by a court of competent jurisdiction, to restrain the violation or breach thereof by Employee or any Affiliates, agents, or any other persons acting for or with Employee in any capacity whatsoever, is an appropriate remedy for any such breach and that Employee will not oppose the granting of such relief on the

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual covenants and agreements herein set forth and for the purpose of prescribing the terms and conditions of such Merger, the parties hereto agree as follows:

RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF SURVIVING CORPORATION

At and after the Effective Time, all rights, privileges, powers and franchises and all property and assets of every kind and description of Citizens and Community shall be vested in and be held and enjoyed by the Surviving Corporation, without further act or deed, and all the estates and interests of every kind of Citizens and Community, including all debts due to either of them, shall be as effectively the property of the Surviving Corporation as they were of Citizens and Community, and the title to any real estate vested by deed or otherwise in either Citizens or Community shall not revert or be in any way impaired by reason of the Merger; and all rights of creditors and liens upon any property of Citizens and Community shall be preserved unimpaired and all debts, liabilities and duties of Citizens and Community shall be debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation and may be enforced against it to the same extent as if said debts, liabilities and duties had been incurred or contracted by it.

ARTICLE VI

(b) Cancellation of Excluded Shares.

If a holder of shares of Community Common Stock who demands that Community purchase such shares under Chapter 13 of the CGCL shall thereafter effectively withdraw or lose (through failure to perfect or otherwise) such holders’ dissenters’ rights with respect to such shares of Community Common Stock then, as of the occurrence of such withdrawal or loss, each such share of Community Common Stock shall be deemed as of the Effective Time to have been converted into and represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration.

(d) Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement of Merger, no fractional shares of Parent Common Stock will be issued and any holder of Shares entitled to receive a fractional share of Parent Common Stock shall be entitled to receive a cash payment in lieu thereof (rounded to the nearest cent), which payment shall be determined by multiplying (i) the 20-day volume weighted average price of a share of Parent Common Stock as quoted on NASDAQ as of the fifth (5^th) Business Day immediately prior to the Closing Date by (ii) the fraction of the share (rounded to the nearest thousandth when expressed in decimal form) of Parent Common Stock which such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive hereunder.
