ARTICLE I
THE MERGER

Section 1.01                The Merger. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time, Focus shall merge with and into HBC (the “Merger”) and the separate corporate existence of Focus shall cease. HBC shall be the surviving corporation in the Merger (sometimes hereinafter referred to as the “Surviving Corporation”), and shall continue to exist as a California corporation with all its rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises

1

continuing unaffected by the Merger. An agreement of merger (the “Agreement of Merger”), substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, shall be filed with the California Department of Business Oversight (“DBO”) and the Secretary of State of the State of California.

Section 1.02                Effective Time. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VI, other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the consummation of the Merger (the “Closing”), but subject to the fulfillment or waiver of those conditions, the parties shall cause the filings contemplated by Section 1.01 to be made (i) no later than the fifth (5th) business day after such satisfaction or waiver or (ii) on such other date to which HCC and Focus may agree in writing (the “Closing Date”). The Merger shall become effective (the “Effective Time”) upon such filing with DBO and the Secretary of State of the State of California or on such date as may be specified in the Agreement of Merger.

Section 1.03                Effect of the Merger. At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as provided in Section 1108 of the California General Corporation Law (“CGCL”) and Section 4887 of the California Financial Code (“CFC”), including any regulations or rules promulgated thereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all the property, rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises of Focus and HBC shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions, disabilities and duties of Focus and HBC shall become the debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions, disabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 1.04                Articles of Incorporation; By-laws. The Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of HBC as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 1.06                Possible Alternative Structures. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, prior to the Effective Time HCC shall be entitled, after consultation with Focus, to revise the structure of effecting the acquisition of Focus, provided, however, that (a) there are no adverse federal or state income tax consequences to Focus’s shareholders as a result of the modification (including no impact upon the opinions of counsel related to tax matters to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement), (b) the consideration to be paid to the holders of Focus Common Stock and Focus Stock Options under this Agreement is not thereby changed in kind, value or reduced in amount and the delivery of such consideration will not be delayed, (c) the benefits to be received by Focus’s directors, officers and employees under this Agreement are not diminished, and (d) such modification will not delay materially or jeopardize the receipt of any regulatory approvals or other consents and approvals relating to the consummation of the Merger or otherwise cause any condition to Closing set forth in Article VI not to be capable of being fulfilled. The parties agree to appropriately amend this Agreement and any related documents in order to reflect any such revised structure.

2

Section 1.07                Additional Actions. If at any time after the Effective Time the Surviving Corporation shall consider or be advised that any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances or any other acts or things are necessary, desirable or proper (a) to vest, perfect or confirm, of record or otherwise, in the Surviving Corporation its right, title or interest in or to or under any of the rights, privileges, powers, franchises, properties or assets of Focus, or (b) otherwise to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, the Surviving Corporation and its proper officers and directors or their designees shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of either of Focus or its Subsidiaries all such deeds, bills of sale, assignments and assurances and to do, in the name and on behalf of Focus, all such other acts and things as may be necessary, desirable or proper to vest, perfect or confirm the Surviving Corporation’s right, title or interest in or to or under any of the rights, privileges, powers, franchises, properties or assets of Focus and otherwise to carry out the purposes of this Agreement.

ARTICLE II
EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON CAPITAL STOCK

Section 2.01                Effect of the Merger on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, as a result of the Merger and without any action on the part of HCC, HBC or Focus or the holder of any capital stock of HCC, HBC or Focus:

(a)                               Cancellation of Certain Focus Common Stock. Each share of Focus Common Stock that is owned by HCC or Focus (as treasury stock or otherwise) or any of their respective direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiaries will automatically be cancelled and retired and will cease to exist, and no consideration will be delivered in exchange therefor.

(b)                              HCC Capital Stock. (i) Each share of HCC Common Stock and (ii) each share of HCC Series C Preferred Stock, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall remain issued and outstanding and shall not be affected by the Merger.

(c)                               HBC Capital Stock.  Each share of HBC common stock, no par value, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain issued and outstanding and shall not be affected by the Merger.

(d)                             Conversion of Focus Common Stock. Each share of Focus Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares to be cancelled and retired in accordance with Section 2.01(a), and (ii) Dissenting Shares) shall, by virtue of the Merger, be converted into the right to receive the number of shares of HCC Common Stock equal to 1.8235 shares of HCC Common Stock (the “Exchange Ratio”), together with any cash in lieu of fractional shares as specified in Section 2.01(g), (the “Merger Consideration”).

(e)                               Dilution. If HCC changes (or the HCC Board sets a related record date that will occur before the Effective Time for a change in) the number or kind of shares of HCC Common Stock outstanding by way of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization or similar transaction, then the Merger Consideration (and any other dependent items, such as the amounts payable to holders of Focus Stock Options) will be adjusted proportionately to account for such change to provide to the holders of HCC Common Stock

3

(and holders of Focus Stock Options) the same economic effect contemplated by this Agreement prior to such change.

(f)                                Cancellation of Shares and Closing of Focus’s Transfer Books. At the Effective Time (i) none of the shares of Focus Common Stock shall be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a valid certificate (each a “Certificate”) previously representing any such shares of Focus Common Stock or owner designated by a book entry previously representing a non-certificated share of Focus Common Stock (a “Book-Entry Share”) shall thereafter cease to have any rights with respect to such securities, except the right to receive (i) the Merger Consideration, (ii) any dividends and other distributions in accordance with Section 2.03(e), and (iii) any cash to be paid in lieu of any fractional share of HCC Common Stock in accordance with Section 2.01(g). The stock transfer books of Focus shall be closed with respect to all shares of Focus Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, and no further transfer of any such shares of Focus Common Stock shall be made on such stock transfer books after the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Focus Certificates or Book-Entry Shares representing such shares of Focus Common Stock are presented for transfer to the Exchange Agent or to the Surviving Corporation or HCC, they shall be cancelled and shall be exchanged as provided in Section 2.03.

(g)                              No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of HCC Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the Merger, and no certificates or scrip for any such fractional shares shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares. Any holder of Focus Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of HCC Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of HCC Common Stock issuable to such holder), in lieu of such fraction of a share and, upon surrender of such holder’s Certificates or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent, shall be paid in cash the dollar amount (rounded to the nearest whole cent), without interest, determined by multiplying such fraction of a share of HCC Common Stock multiplied by the HCC Average Closing Price.

Section 2.02                Exchange Agent; Deposit of Merger Consideration. Prior to the Closing Date, HCC shall select a bank or trust company to act as exchange agent in the Merger (the “Exchange Agent”) and provide the Exchange Agent with appropriate instructions regarding the matters described in this Article II in form and substance reasonably acceptable to HCC and Focus, all in accordance with the provisions of an agreement executed between HCC and the Exchange Agent.  HCC shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent (by instruction to HCC’s transfer agent) prior to the Effective Time (a) certificates representing the shares of HCC Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 2.01(d) (or make appropriate alternative arrangements if uncertificated shares of HCC Common Stock represented by a book entry will be issued), and (b) cash sufficient in lieu of fractional shares to be paid in accordance with Section 2.01(g). The shares of HCC Common Stock and cash amounts so deposited with the Exchange Agent are referred to collectively as the “Exchange Fund.”

Section 2.03                Exchange of Certificates and Book-Entry Shares.

(a)                               HCC shall take all steps necessary to cause the Exchange Agent, not later than five (5) business days after the Effective Time, to mail to holders of Focus Common Stock of record immediately prior to the Effective Time (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form that is

4

reasonably acceptable to Focus and containing such customary provisions as HCC may specify (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected and risk of loss and title to shall pass only upon proper delivery of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent upon adherence to the procedures set forth in the letter of transmittal, and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of such holder’s Certificates and Book-Entry Shares) (“Letter of Transmittal”), and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of such holder’s Certificates and Book-Entry Shares in exchange for certificates representing HCC Common Stock (or appropriate alternative arrangements if uncertificated shares of HCC Common Stock represented by a book entry will be issued).

(b)                              Upon surrender of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share to the Exchange Agent for exchange, together with a properly completed Letter of Transmittal and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Exchange Agent or HCC, the holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (i) a certificate representing the number of whole shares of HCC Common Stock (or uncertificated shares of HCC Common Stock represented by a book entry) to which such holders of Focus Common Stock shall have become entitled in accordance with Section 2.01(d), and (ii) a check representing the amount of cash in lieu of any fractional share of HCC Common Stock, if any, which such holder has the right to receive in respect of the Certificate or Book-Entry Share surrendered pursuant to Section 2.01(g).  No interest will be paid or accrued on the cash in lieu of fractional shares.  The Certificates or Book-Entry Shares so surrendered shall be canceled.

(c)                               If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen, or destroyed, HCC or the Exchange Agent may in its sole discretion require the owner of such lost, stolen, or destroyed Certificate to make and deliver to HCC or the Exchange Agent an affidavit of that fact and an agreement in form reasonably satisfactory to HCC indemnifying HCC and the Surviving Corporation against any claim that may be made against HCC or the Surviving Corporation and to deliver a bond (in such sum as HCC or the Exchange Agent may reasonably direct) as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Exchange Agent, HCC, or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Certificate.

(d)                             If any portion of the HCC Common Stock that a person has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.01(d) is to be issued in a name other than that in which the Certificate or Book-Entry Share surrendered is registered, it shall be a condition to such issuance thereof that the Certificate or Book-Entry Shares surrendered shall be properly endorsed (or accompanied by an appropriate instrument of transfer) and otherwise in proper form for transfer, and the person requesting such exchange shall pay to the Exchange Agent in advance any transfer or other Tax required by reason of a certificate or uncertificated book entry share, as applicable, or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(e)                               No dividends or other distributions declared after the Effective Time with respect to HCC Common Stock and payable to the holders of record thereof shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Share until the holder thereof shall surrender such Certificate or Book-Entry Share in accordance with this Article II. After the surrender of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share in accordance with this Article II, the record holder thereof shall be entitled to receive any such dividends or other distributions, without any interest thereon,

5

which theretofore had become payable with respect to shares of HCC Common Stock represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry Share.

(f)                                Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares as of the date twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to HCC upon demand, and any holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares who have not theretofore surrendered their Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with this Section 2.03 shall thereafter look only to HCC for satisfaction of their claims for the Merger Consideration, cash in lieu of fractional shares of HCC Common Stock, and any dividends or distributions with respect to HCC Common Stock, in each case without interest thereon.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of HCC, the Surviving Corporation, Focus or the Exchange Agent or any other person shall be liable to any former holder of shares of Focus Common Stock for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(g)                              Each of the Exchange Agent, HCC, and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder or former holder of Focus Common Stock such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under the Code or any provision of state, local, or foreign Tax law or under any other applicable Law. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

(h)                              Any portion of the HCC Common Stock made available to the Exchange Agent in respect of any Dissenting Shares shall be returned to HCC upon demand.

Section 2.04                Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Focus Common Stock that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that are held by a shareholder who is entitled to demand, and who properly demands, the fair market value of such shares pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, Chapter 13 of the CGCL (a “Dissenting Shareholder”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration. For purposes of this Agreement, “Dissenting Shares” means any shares of Focus Common Stock as to which a Dissenting Shareholder has properly exercised a demand for fair market value pursuant to Chapter 13 of the CGCL. At the Effective Time all Dissenting Shares shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist. No Dissenting Shareholder shall be entitled to any Merger Consideration in respect of any Dissenting Shares unless and until such holder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such holder’s right to demand fair market value of its Dissenting Shares under the CGCL, and any Dissenting Shareholder shall be entitled to receive only the payment provided by Chapter 13 of the CGCL with respect to the Dissenting Shares owned by such Dissenting Shareholder and not any Merger Consideration. Focus shall give HCC (a) prompt notice of any written demands for fair market value, attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to applicable Law relating to shareholders’ demands for fair market value, and (b) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for fair market value under the CGCL. Focus shall not, except with the prior written consent of HCC, voluntarily make any payment with respect to any demands for fair market value of Dissenting Shares, offer to settle or settle any such demands.

Section 2.05                Treatment of Stock Options.

(a)                               Prior to and effective as of the Effective Time, Focus shall have taken all such action as is necessary to terminate, subject to compliance with this Section 2.05, the Focus Equity Plans and shall have provided written notice to each holder of an option to acquire shares of Focus Common Stock (each, a “Focus Stock Option”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not then vested or exercisable, that such Focus Stock Option shall terminate at the Effective Time and that, if such Focus Stock Option is not exercised or otherwise terminated on or before the Effective Time, such holder shall be entitled to receive in cancellation of each Focus Stock Option a cash payment in an amount, without interest, equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares of Focus Common Stock subject to the Focus Stock Option times (ii) the excess, if any, of the product of the Exchange Ratio multiplied by the HCC Average Closing Price over the exercise price per share under such Focus Stock Option (“Option Consideration”). HCC or the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration paid in accordance with this Section 2.05 on account of Focus Stock Options such amounts as HCC or the Exchange Agent is required to deduct and withhold from such payment under the Code or any similar Law. At the Effective Time the Focus Equity Plans and all Focus Stock Options issued thereunder that have not previously been exercised, whether or not then vested and whether or not then exercisable, shall terminate and be of no further effect. Any payments pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall be made only after the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VI.

(b)                              At least thirty (30) business days prior to the Closing Date and prior to any such payment, Focus shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain a written acknowledgement and waiver (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to HCC) from each holder of a Focus Stock Option (i) confirming the number of Focus Stock Options held, (ii) confirming that the treatment of such Focus Stock Options pursuant to this Agreement and the amounts to be paid pursuant to this Agreement have been correctly calculated, (iii) acknowledging that in consideration for the cancellation of such Focus Stock Option, the holder agrees to accept the Option Consideration, and (iv) containing waivers for such other matters as reasonably determined by HCC.  Focus shall provide a copy of each such acknowledgement and waiver to obtain to HCC at least five (5) business days prior to the Closing Date.

(c)                               Each holder of in-the-money Focus Stock Option listed on Schedule D-1 shall have entered into an In-the-Money Option Holder Agreement in the form of Exhibit D attached to this Agreement (the “In-the-Money Stock Option Holder Agreement”) dated the date of this Agreement providing for the termination of such holder’s Focus Stock Options and restricting the exercise of in-the-money Focus Stock Options (whether vested or not vested).  Each holder of such terminated Focus Stock Options that are in-the-money shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of each share of Focus Common Stock that would otherwise have been issuable upon exercise thereof the Option Consideration.

(d)                             Focus shall take all actions necessary to ensure that from and after the Effective Time neither HCC nor the Surviving Corporation will be required to deliver shares of HCC Common Stock or Focus Common Stock or other capital stock to any person pursuant to or in settlement of Focus Stock Options after the Effective Time.

7

(e)                               At or prior to the Closing Date, Focus and the Focus Board and its compensation committee, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions which are necessary to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.05(a), (b) and (d).

Section 2.06                Tax Consequences. For federal income tax purposes, the Merger is intended to constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

ARTICLE III
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF FOCUS

Except as set forth in the Focus Disclosure Schedule, Focus hereby represents and warrants to HCC and HBC that the following is true and correct:

Section 3.01                Organization; Qualification and Subsidiaries.

(a)                               Corporate Organization. Focus is a corporation and a California chartered bank duly organized, validly existing in good standing in California. Focus is authorized by the DBO in accordance with the CFC to conduct a commercial banking business. The deposits of Focus are insured up to the applicable limits (or fully insured if there is no limit) through the Deposit Insurance Fund (“DIF”) as administered by Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, and all premiums and assessments required to be paid have been paid when due. No Legal Action for the termination or revocation of such insurance is pending, or to the knowledge of Focus, has any such termination or revocation been threatened.  Focus has the requisite corporate power and authority to own or lease and operate all of its properties and assets and to carry on its business as is now being conducted. Focus is duly licensed or qualified to do business in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted by it or the character or location of the properties and assets owned or leased by it makes such licensing or qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so licensed or qualified would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Focus Material Adverse Effect.

(b)                              Charter Documents. Focus has delivered or made available to HCC a correct and complete copy of the Charter Documents of Focus, as amended and currently in effect. Focus is not in violation of any of the provisions of its Charter Documents.

(c)                               Minute Books. The minute books of Focus and its Subsidiaries, in all material respects, contain accurate records of all meetings and accurately reflect all other material actions taken by the shareholders, their respective Boards of Directors and all standing committees of their respective Boards of Directors.

(d)                             Subsidiaries. Section 3.01(d) of the Focus Disclosure Schedule sets forth a complete and correct list of all the Subsidiaries of Focus (each, a “Focus Subsidiary” and collectively the “Focus Subsidiaries”). Section 3.01(d) of the Focus Disclosure Schedule also sets forth a list identifying the number and owner of all outstanding capital stock or other equity securities of each Focus Subsidiary, options, warrants, stock appreciation rights, scrip, rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities or rights convertible into, shares of any capital stock or other equity securities of such Subsidiary, or

8

Contracts by which such Subsidiary may become bound to issue additional shares of its capital stock or other equity securities, or options, warrants, scrip, rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments for any shares of its capital stock or other equity securities and the identity of the parties to any such Contracts. All of the outstanding shares of capital stock or other securities evidencing ownership of the Focus Subsidiaries are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and such shares or other securities are owned by Focus or another of the Focus Subsidiaries free and clear of any Liens (other than Permitted Liens). Each of the Focus Subsidiaries (i) is a duly organized and validly existing corporation, partnership or limited liability company or other legal entity under the Laws of its jurisdiction of organization, (ii) is duly licensed and qualified to do business and is in good standing in all jurisdictions (whether federal, state, local or foreign) where its ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of its business requires it to be so qualified (except for jurisdictions in which the failure to be so qualified would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Focus Material Adverse Effect), and (iii) has all requisite corporate power and authority to own or lease its properties and assets and to carry on its business as now conducted. A correct and complete copy of the Charter Documents of each of the Focus Subsidiaries, as amended and currently in effect, has been delivered and made available to HCC. None of the Focus Subsidiaries are in violation of their respective Charter Documents. Focus does not possess directly or indirectly any material equity interest in any person, except for (i) the Focus Subsidiaries, (ii) equity interests held in the investment portfolios of Focus, (iii) equity interests held by Focus in a fiduciary capacity, and (iv) equity interests held in connection with the lending activities of Focus. Neither Focus nor any of its Subsidiaries is or has ever been a general partner of any general or limited partnership. There are no restrictions on the ability of any Focus Subsidiary to pay dividends or distributions to Focus.

Section 3.02                Capital Structure.

(a)                               Capital Stock. The authorized shares of stock of Focus consist of 40,000,000 shares of Common Stock, no par value (“Focus Common Stock”) and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, no par value (“Focus Preferred Stock”). As of the date of this Agreement (i) 3,001,722 shares of Focus Common Stock are issued and outstanding (and no shares of Focus Common Stock are held by Focus in its treasury), of which 72,440 shares are restricted shares subject to risk of forfeiture during certain periods of vesting, (ii) 753,623 shares of Focus Common Stock have been reserved for issuance pursuant to the Focus Equity Plans in respect of Focus Stock Options outstanding as of the date of this Agreement, subject to adjustment on the terms set forth in Focus Equity Plans, and (iii) 191,607 shares of Focus Common Stock have been reserved for future issuance pursuant to awards under Focus Equity Plans not granted on the date of this Agreement. Except as set forth in this Section 3.02(a), as of the date of this Agreement, Focus had no Focus Common Stock, Focus Preferred Stock or any other securities reserved for issuance or required to be reserved for issuance. All such issued and outstanding shares of Focus Common Stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable and were not issued in violation of or subject to any preemptive rights, Lien, voting restriction, purchase option, call option, right of first refusal, subscription agreement, or any other similar right, and were issued in accordance with applicable Law.

(b)                              Voting Securities. Neither Focus nor any of its Subsidiaries have any authorized, issued or outstanding any bonds, debentures, notes, or other indebtedness which the holders

9

thereof have the right to vote (or convertible into, or exchangeable for, securities having the right to vote) on any matters on which shareholders of Focus may vote.

(c)                               Focus Stock-Based Rights. Section 3.02(c) of the Focus Disclosure Schedule sets forth, as of the date of this Agreement, a complete and correct list of each Focus Stock Option, award of restricted shares of Focus Common Stock, Contract relating to the issued or unissued capital stock of Focus or any of its Subsidiaries, or obligating Focus or any of its Subsidiaries to issue, grant, or sell any shares of capital stock of or other equity interests in or securities convertible into equity interests in Focus or any of its Subsidiaries (each, a “Focus Stock-Based Right”), setting forth with respect to each such Focus Stock-Based Right (i) the name, (ii) the holder thereof, (iii) the plan under which such Focus Stock-Based Right was granted, if any, (iv) the number of shares of Focus Common Stock subject to such Focus Stock-Based Right, (v) the per-share price at which such Focus Stock-Based Right may be exercised or the shares of Focus Common Stock subject to such Focus Stock-Based Right were sold or issued, (vi) the grant and expiration dates, and (vii) the terms of vesting, including whether (and to what extent) the vesting will be accelerated in any way by this Agreement or by termination of employment or change in position following consummation of the Merger (whether alone or upon the occurrence of any additional or subsequent events). With respect to each grant of a Focus Stock-Based Right, (i) each such grant was made in accordance with the terms of the applicable Focus Equity Plan and applicable Law, and (ii) each such grant was properly accounted for in accordance with GAAP in the financial statements (including the related notes) of Focus. All Focus Stock Options have been granted with a per share exercise at least equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date the option was granted within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and associated Treasury Department guidance.  Each Focus Stock Option intended to qualify as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code has been structured to so qualify. Each grant of a Focus Stock Option was duly authorized no later than the date on which the grant of such Focus Stock Option was by its terms to be effective by all necessary corporate action, including, as applicable, approval by the Focus Board (or a duly constituted and authorized committee thereof), and any required shareholder approval by the necessary number of votes or written consents, and the award agreement governing such grant (if any) was duly executed and delivered by each party thereto. Focus has not granted, and there is no and has been no Focus policy or practice to grant, any Focus Stock Options prior to, or otherwise coordinated the grant of Focus Stock Options with, the release or other public announcement of material information regarding Focus or its financial results or prospects. The treatment of the Focus Stock Options provided for under this Agreement, including but not limited to Section 2.05, is consistent in all material respects with and not in violation of any document or agreement pertaining to a Focus Stock Option or a Focus Equity Plan or applicable Law.  From January 1, 2015 through the date of this Agreement, neither Focus nor any of its Subsidiaries has accelerated the vesting or lapsing of restrictions with respect to any Focus Stock-Based Right, or adopted or amended any Focus Equity Plan. All shares of Focus Common Stock subject to issuance pursuant to a Focus Stock-Based Right will, upon issuance on the terms and conditions specified in the instruments pursuant to which they are issuable, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable. Except for Focus Stock-Based Rights set forth on Section 3.02(c) of the Focus Disclosure Schedule, there are no outstanding options, warrants, calls, subscription rights, exercisable, convertible or exchangeable securities, stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights, any other rights, awards or Contracts (contingent or

10

otherwise) that obligate Focus to issue, transfer or sell any Focus Common Stock or any investment that is convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for any such shares.

Focus maintains accurate books and records and in all material respects they have been, and are being maintained in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with GAAP and any other applicable Law and accounting requirement.

(i)         Focus has implemented and maintains internal controls over financial reporting that are sufficient to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of its financial reporting and the preparation of its financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes policies and procedures for its own purposes that (A) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of Focus and its Subsidiaries, (B) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of Focus and its Subsidiaries are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of Focus and its Subsidiaries, and (C) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of Focus’s assets that could have a material effect on its financial statements.

(ii)        Since December 31, 2011, neither Focus nor any of its Subsidiaries or, to the knowledge of Focus, any director, officer, employee, auditor, accountant, or representative of Focus or any of its Subsidiaries has received or has otherwise had or obtained knowledge of any complaint, allegation, assertion, or claim, whether written or oral, regarding the accounting or auditing practices, procedures, methodologies, or methods of Focus or any of its Subsidiaries or their internal control over financial reporting, including any complaint, allegation, assertion, or

13

claim that Focus or any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in questionable accounting or auditing practices.

Focus has made available to HCC (A) a summary of any such disclosure made by management to Focus’s auditors and audit committee since December 31, 2011 and (B) any material communication since December 31, 2011 made by management or Focus’s auditors to the audit committee required or contemplated by the audit committee’s charter or professional standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.

(f)        Undisclosed Liabilities. Except for (i) those liabilities that are set forth on Focus Balance Sheet, (ii) those liabilities and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (iii) liabilities incurred since the date of the Focus Balance Sheet in the ordinary course of business and that are not and would not be, individually or in the aggregate, material to the financial condition of Focus and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, neither Focus nor any of the Focus Subsidiaries has any liabilities, which were required to be reflected on the Focus Balance Sheet under GAAP if it had existed on the date of the Focus Balance Sheet.

(c)        Fiduciary Accounts. Focus and each of its Subsidiaries has properly administered in all material respects all accounts for which it acts as a fiduciary, including accounts for which it serves as a trustee, agent, custodian, personal representative, guardian, conservator or investment advisor, in accordance with the terms of the governing documents and applicable Law.

Neither HCC nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to, or has any commitment to become a party to, any joint venture, off balance sheet partnership or any similar Contract (including any Contract relating to any transaction or relationship between or among HCC and any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any unconsolidated Affiliate), including any structured finance, special purpose or limited purpose entity or person, on the other hand, or any “off balance sheet arrangements” (for reference, as defined in Item 303(a) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act), where the result, purpose or intended effect of such Contract is to avoid disclosure of any material transaction involving or material liabilities of HCC or any of its Subsidiaries in the financial statements included in the HCC SEC Reports, or the HCC Reports.

(f)                                Undisclosed Liabilities.  Except for (i) those liabilities that are disclosed in the HCC Reports, (ii) those liabilities and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (iii) liabilities incurred since the date of the balance sheet included in HCC’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K in the ordinary course of business and that are not and would not be, individually or in the aggregate, material to the financial condition of HCC and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, neither HCC nor any of the its Subsidiaries has any liabilities, which were required to be reflected on such balance sheet under GAAP if it had existed on the date of such balance sheet.

Section 4.06                Taxes.

(a)                               Tax Returns.  HCC and each of its Subsidiaries have duly and timely filed or caused to be filed (taking into account any valid extensions) all material Tax Returns required to be filed by or with respect to HCC and its Subsidiaries on or prior to the Closing Date. The Tax Returns have accurately reflected and shall accurately reflect all liability for Taxes of HCC and each of its Subsidiaries for the periods covered thereby.  Neither HCC nor any of its Subsidiaries is currently the beneficiary of any extension of time within which to file any Tax Return other than extensions of time to file Tax Returns obtained in the ordinary course of business.

(b)                              Liability for Taxes.  All Taxes of HCC and its Subsidiaries (whether or not shown on any tax return) have been timely paid except for Taxes that are both being contested in good faith and adequately reserved against and included as an identifiable tax liability (in accordance with GAAP) on the Financial Statements and HCC Balance Sheet. HCC does not have any liability for taxes in excess of the amount reserved or provided for in the Financial Statements or HCC Balance Sheet (but excluding, for this purpose only, any liability reflected thereon for deferred taxes to reflect timing differences between tax and financial accounting methods).

(c)                               Withholding. All Taxes required to be withheld, collected or deposited by or with respect to HCC and each of the HCC Subsidiaries have been timely withheld, collected or deposited, as the case may be, and to the extent required by applicable Law, have been paid to the relevant Governmental Entity. HCC and each of its Subsidiaries have complied in all material respects with all information reporting and backup withholding provisions of applicable Law, including the collection, review and retention of any required withholding certificates or

42

comparable documents (including with respect to deposits) and any notice received pursuant to Section 3406(a)(1)(B) or (C) of the Code.

(d)                             Tax Reporting.  HCC and its Subsidiaries have disclosed on their federal income tax returns and state income tax returns all positions taken therein that could give rise to substantial understatement of federal income tax within the meaning of Section 6662 of the Code or any similar provision under applicable state tax law.

(e)                               Liens. There are no Liens for Taxes with respect to any of the assets of HCC or any of its Subsidiaries other than for statutory Liens for Taxes not yet due and payable.

(f)                                Tax Deficiencies and Audits. No deficiency for any Taxes which has been proposed, asserted or assessed in writing against HCC or any of its Subsidiaries has not been resolved. There is no waiver or extension of the application of any statute of limitations of any jurisdiction regarding the assessment or collection of any Tax with respect to HCC and any of its Subsidiaries, which waiver or extension is in effect. HCC is not contesting any Tax liability.  To the knowledge of HCC, no Tax Return of HCC nor any of its Subsidiaries is under audit or examination by any Governmental Entity. No written or, to the knowledge of HCC, unwritten notice of such an audit or examination by any Governmental Entity has been received by HCC or any of its Subsidiaries. Any assessments for Taxes due with respect to any completed and settled examinations or any concluded litigation have been fully paid.  Since December 31, 2008, HCC has not amended any Tax Return or entered into any settlement or compromise of any Tax. No issue has been raised by any Governmental Entity in any pending Tax audit that could be material and adverse to HCC or the Surviving Corporation for any period after the Effective Time.

(g)                              Tax Jurisdictions. No claim has been made by any Governmental Entity authority in a jurisdiction where HCC and its Subsidiaries do not file Tax Returns that HCC or any of its Subsidiaries is or may be subject to Tax in that jurisdiction.

(h)                              Consolidated Groups, Transferee Liability and Tax Agreements. Neither HCC nor any of its Subsidiaries (i) has been a member of a group filing Tax Returns on a consolidated, combined, unitary or similar basis (other than a consolidated group of which HCC is the common parent), (ii) has any liability for Taxes of any person (other than HCC or any of its Subsidiaries) under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 (or any comparable provision of local, state or foreign Law) as a transferee or successor by Contract or otherwise, or (iii) is a party to or bound by or has any liability under any Tax sharing, allocation or indemnification Contract with respect to Taxes (including any advance pricing agreement, closing agreement or other Contract) relating to Taxes with any Governmental Entity.

(i)                                  Reportable Transactions. Neither HCC nor any of its Subsidiaries has been a party to or a promoter of a “reportable transaction” within the meaning of Section 6707A(c)(1) of the Code and Treasury Regulations Section 1.6011-4(b).

(j)                                  Listed Transactions. Neither HCC nor any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in any “listed transaction” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.6011 4(b)(2).

43

(k)                              Qualifying Reorganization. Neither HCC nor any of its Subsidiaries has taken or agreed to take any action or is aware of any fact or circumstance that would prevent or impede, or could reasonably be expected to prevent or impede, the Merger from qualifying as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

Section 4.07                Compliance. HCC and each of its Subsidiaries has conducted its business and is in compliance (after giving effect to any non-compliance and cure) in all material respects with each Law that is applicable to any of them or to the conduct or operation of their respective business as presently conducted, or the ownership or use of any of any of their respective properties, rights, assets and deposits, including (i) the Bank Secrecy Act, Title III of the U.S. Patriot Act or related state or federal anti-money-laundering laws, regulations and guidelines, (ii) consumer lending, deposit and savings and related operations laws and regulations, including the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Truth in Lending Act, applicable regulations promulgated by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and other investor and mortgage insurance company requirements relating to the originating, sale and servicing of mortgage and consumer loans, (iii) extensions of credit to and transactions with officers, directors and affiliates, and (iv) the CRA. Neither HCC nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice from any Governmental Entity or any other person regarding any failure to comply with any material alleged or threatened liability under such Law that has not heretofore been cured and for which there is any remaining liability.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, HCC has not been advised of any material regulatory concerns regarding its compliance with the Bank Secrecy Act or related state or federal anti-money-laundering laws, regulations and guidelines, including those provisions of federal regulations requiring (i) the filing of reports, such as Currency Transaction Reports and Suspicious Activity Reports, (ii) the maintenance of records and (iii) the exercise of diligence in identifying customers. HCC has adopted such procedures and policies as are necessary or appropriate, in the reasonably judgment of HCC management, to comply with Title III of the U.S. Patriot Act.  No matter described in Section 4.07 of the HCC Disclosure Schedule, individually or in the aggregate, had or would reasonably be expected to have a HCC Material Adverse Effect.

Section 4.08                Regulatory Matters. Neither HCC nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any of their respective properties is directly or indirectly a party or subject to any Order which restricts the conduct of its business as currently conducted, imposes any requirements or procedures, or in any manner that relates to its capital adequacy, its liquidity and funding policies and practices, its ability to pay dividends, its credit, risk management or compliance policies, its internal controls, its management or its operations or business.  Neither HCC nor any of its Subsidiaries has received at any time since December 31, 2013, any notice or other communication from any Governmental Entity that it is considering issuing, initiating, ordering or requesting any such Order. To the knowledge of HCC, there are no formal or informal investigations relating to any regulatory matter pending before any Governmental Entity with respect to HCC or any of its Subsidiaries, that such Governmental Entity is contemplating issuing or requesting (or is considering the appropriateness of issuing or requesting) any Order. Except for normal examinations conducted by a Governmental Entity in the ordinary course of the business of HCC and its Subsidiaries, there is no pending Legal Action before, or, to the knowledge of HCC, examination or investigation by, any Governmental Entity into the business or operations, policies, practices or disclosures of HCC or any of its Subsidiaries. There is no material unresolved violation, criticism or exception by any Governmental Entity with respect to any

44

report or statement relating to any examination of HCC or any of its Subsidiaries. HBC meets or exceeds the criteria to be deemed “well-capitalized” (as that term is defined by 12 C.F.R. 225.2(r), and HBC and HCC are “well managed” (as that term is defined at 12 C.F.R. 225.2(s)). HBC has not been informed that its status as “well-capitalized,” or “well managed” will change within the next 12 months.  No matter described in Section 4.08 the HCC Disclosure Schedule, individually or in the aggregate, had or would reasonably be expected to have a HCC Material Adverse Effect.

Section 4.09                Community Reinvestment Act.  HBC had a rating of “satisfactory” or better as of its most recent CRA compliance examination and it has no knowledge of any facts that may result in not receiving a rating of “satisfactory” or better at its next CRA compliance examination or have any basis to believe that any Governmental Entity may seek to restrain, delay or prohibit the Contemplated Transactions as a result of any act or omission of HBC under the CRA.

Section 4.10                Litigation. There is no Legal Action pending, or to the knowledge of the HCC, threatened against HCC or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties or assets or, to the knowledge of HCC, against any executive officer or director of HCC or any of its Subsidiaries in their capacities as such.  To the knowledge of HCC, there is no reasonable basis for and no event has occurred or circumstance exists that (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) would reasonably be expected to give rise to or serve as a basis for, constitute or result in, any material Legal Action against HCC or any of its Subsidiaries. No matter described in Section 4.10 of the HCC Disclosure Schedule, individually or in the aggregate, had or would reasonably be expected to have a HCC Material Adverse Effect.

Section 4.11                Opinion of HCC Financial Advisor. The HCC Board has received an opinion (which, if initially rendered verbally, has been on will be confirmed by a written opinion, dated the same date) from Keefee, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇, Inc. (“KBW”) to the effect that, as of the date of such opinion, and based on and subject to the factors, assumptions, qualifications, and limitations contained therein, the Exchange Ratio is fair, from a financial point of view, to HCC.

Section 4.12                HCC Information. The information provided by HCC relating to HCC, HBC and their Subsidiaries that is to be contained in the Registration Statement, the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus, any filings or approvals under applicable state securities laws, any filing pursuant to Rule 165 or Rule 425 under the Securities Act or Rule 14a-12 under the Exchange Act, or in any other document filed with any other Governmental Entity in connection with the matters set forth in this Section 4.12, 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 and will comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations thereunder, and any other Laws, as applicable. The representations and warranties contained in this Article IV, and no statement by HCC or HBC in any certificate, agreement, schedule or other document furnished or to be furnished in connection with the Contemplated Transactions, was or will be inaccurate, incomplete or incorrect in any material respect as of the date furnished or contains or will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omits or will omit to state any material fact necessary to make such representation, warranty or statement not misleading.

45

Section 4.13                Regulatory Reports and Filings. HCC agrees that through the Effective Time, each of its reports and other filings and the reports and filing of HBC and its Subsidiaries required to be filed with any Governmental Entity will comply in all material respects with all of the applicable Law of such Governmental Entity with which it will be filed and none of the reports or other filings will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they will be made, not misleading. Any financial statement contained in any such report, or other filing that is intended to present the financial position of HCC or HBC and its Subsidiaries (or as on a consolidated basis) will fairly present in all material respects the financial position of HCC and HBC and their Subsidiaries (or as on a consolidated basis) and will be prepared in accordance with GAAP. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 4.13. HCC makes no representation or warranty with respect to any information supplied by Focus for inclusion in any such reports.

Section 4.14                Governmental Approvals And Other Conditions. Neither HCC nor any of its Subsidiaries has taken or intend to take any action, nor does HCC have knowledge of any fact or circumstance that would materially impede or delay the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions, or the ability of the parties to obtain any approval of any Governmental Entity required for the Contemplated Transactions or to perform its covenants and agreements under this Agreement. To the knowledge of HCC, no event has occurred and no circumstances exists that are reasonably likely to (a) cause the approvals that are required to be obtained from any Governmental Entity having approval authority in connection with the Contemplated Transactions not be granted, (b) cause such Governmental Entity approvals to be subject to a condition which would differ from conditions customarily imposed by a Governmental Entity in orders approving acquisitions of the type contemplated by this Agreement, or (c) make any of the conditions precedent to the obligations of HCC and its Subsidiaries to consummate the Contemplated Transactions unlikely to be fulfilled within the applicable time period or periods required for satisfaction of such condition or conditions.

Section 4.15                Labor.  HCC and its Subsidiaries have complied and are in compliance in all material respects with applicable Law with respect to employment, termination of employment, and terms, practices, conditions and classification of employment (including applicable Law regarding family and medical leave, disability, labor relations, workers compensation, wage and hour requirements, immigration, discrimination, employee health and safety, employee scheduling, occupational safety and health and the WARN Act), and have not engaged in any unfair labor practices or similar prohibited practices that would reasonably be expected to have a HCC Material Adverse Effect.

Focus and its Subsidiaries shall permit HCC, its Representatives to make copies of such books, records and other documents and to discuss the business affairs, condition (financial and otherwise), assets and liabilities of Focus and its Subsidiaries with such third persons, including its directors, officers, employees, accountants, counsel and creditors, as is necessary or reasonably appropriate for the purposes of familiarizing itself with the businesses and operations of Focus and its Subsidiaries, obtaining any necessary Orders, consents or approvals of the Contemplated Transactions by any Governmental Entity and conducting an evaluation of the assets and liabilities of Focus and its Subsidiaries. Upon reasonable request by HCC, Focus shall make its chief financial officer and controller available to discuss with HCC and its Representatives HCC’s ongoing due diligence of Focus and its Subsidiaries operations. Focus will cause its independent outside auditors to make available to HCC, its accountants, counsel and other agents, such personnel, work papers and other documentation of such firm relating to its work papers and its audits of the books and records of Focus and its Subsidiaries as may be requested by HCC in connection with its review of the foregoing matters. Neither Focus nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to provide access to or disclose information where such access or disclosure would jeopardize the protection of attorney-client privilege or contravene any applicable Law, or violate the rights, interests or confidence of any customer (it being agreed that the parties shall use their reasonable commercial efforts to cause such information to be provided in a manner that would not result in such jeopardy or contravention). No investigation shall affect Focus’s representations and warranties contained herein, or limit or otherwise affect the remedies available to HCC pursuant to this Agreement.

(b)                              HCC and Focus shall, and cause their respective Representatives to, comply with all of their respective obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement, which shall survive the termination of this Agreement in accordance with the terms set forth therein.

Section 5.04                No Solicitation.

(a)                               Subject to Section 5.04(b) and Section 5.04(f), Focus shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and its and their Representatives not to, directly or indirectly (i) solicit, initiate, encourage, induce, or facilitate any inquiries, offers or the making or announcement of any proposal or other action designed to facilitate any inquires or proposals that constitutes or may reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, (ii) furnish any information regarding Focus or any of its Subsidiaries or provide any access to the properties, books and records of Focus or its Subsidiaries to any person in connection with or in response to an Acquisition Proposal or an inquiry or indication of interest that may reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, (iii) initiate, engage or participate in discussions (except for the limited purposes of notifying such person of the existence of the provisions of this Section 5.04(a) or negotiations with any person with respect to any Acquisition Proposal or that may reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, or (iv) approve, endorse, or recommend, or enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect to any Acquisition Proposal (including any letter of intent, letter of interest, term sheet, agreement in principle, memorandum of understanding, merger agreement, asset purchase agreement, share exchange agreement, option agreement or other similar agreement (whether binding or not)

52

constituting or related to or intended to, or that may reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement referred to in or permitted by Section 5.04(b)), or that is intended or that may reasonably be expected to result in the abandonment, termination or failure to consummate the Merger. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Focus acknowledges and agrees that any violation of or the taking of any action inconsistent with any of the restrictions set forth in the preceding sentence by any Representative of Focus or any of its Subsidiaries, whether or not such Representative is purporting to act on behalf of Focus or any of its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute a breach of this Section 5.04 by Focus.

(b)                              Prior to the adoption of this Agreement by the Requisite Focus Vote, Section 5.04(a) shall not prohibit Focus from furnishing nonpublic information regarding Focus and its Subsidiaries to or entering into negotiations or discussions with any person in response to a bona fide, unsolicited written Acquisition Proposal that the Focus Board concludes in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and its outside legal counsel) constitutes or is more likely than not to result in a Superior Proposal that is submitted to Focus by such person (and not withdrawn prior to the furnishing of such information or such discussions) if (i) neither Focus nor any Representative of Focus or any of its Subsidiaries shall have violated any of the restrictions set forth in Section 5.04, (ii) the Focus Board concludes in good faith, after having obtained and taken into account the advice of its outside legal counsel, that such action is required or is reasonably like to be required in order for the Focus Board to comply with its fiduciary obligations to Focus’s shareholders under applicable Law, (iii) at least two (2) business days prior to furnishing any such nonpublic information to or entering into discussions with such person Focus gives HCC written notice of the identity of such person and of Focus’s intention to furnish nonpublic information to or enter into discussions with such person, and Focus receives from such person an executed Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement, and (iv) upon furnishing any such nonpublic information to such person Focus simultaneously furnishes such nonpublic information to HCC (to the extent such nonpublic information has not been previously furnished by Focus to HCC).

(c)                               Focus shall notify HCC promptly (but in no event later than twenty-four (24) hours) after receipt of (i) any inquiry or indication of interest that may lead to an Acquisition Proposal, (ii) an Acquisition Proposal (including or any modification of or an amendment to any Acquisition Proposal), or (iii) any request for nonpublic information relating to Focus or any of the Focus Subsidiaries (including access to the properties, books or records of Focus or any of its Subsidiaries) by any person that has made, or to the knowledge of Focus, may be considering making, an Acquisition Proposal. Such notice to HCC shall be made orally and in writing, and shall indicate the identity of the person submitting any of the foregoing, and the terms of any such Acquisition Proposal (or modification or amendment), inquiry, indication or request. Focus shall keep HCC fully informed on a current basis of any additional information requested or provided by Focus and any changes in the status and any changes or modifications in the terms of any such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, indication or request.

(d)                             Focus shall and cause its Subsidiaries to, and shall instruct and cause its Representatives to, immediately cease and terminate any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any persons (other than HCC) conducted prior to the date of this Agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal.  Focus shall use reasonable best efforts to request all

53

persons other than HCC and its  Representatives and Focus’s Representatives who have been furnished confidential information regarding Focus in connection with the solicitation of or discussions regarding an Acquisition Proposal within the eighteen (18) months prior to the date of this Agreement to  promptly  return or destroy such information (and provide certification thereof).

(e)                               Focus shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, (i) release any person from, and agrees to use reasonable efforts to enforce, the confidentiality, standstill non-solicitation or similar provisions of any agreement to which Focus or any of its Subsidiaries is a party with respect to an Acquisition Proposal that remains in effect as of the date of this Agreement, and (ii) shall immediately take all steps necessary to terminate any approval that may have been given prior to the date of this Agreement under any such provisions authorizing any person to make an Acquisition Proposal.

(f)                                Nothing set forth in this Section 5.04 shall prohibit the Focus Board from taking and disclosing to Focus’s shareholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a)(2)-(3) under the Exchange Act or complying with the provisions of Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act (as if Focus Common Stock were registered under the Exchange Act), if the Focus Board determines in good faith after consultation with outside legal counsel that failure to do so would violate any applicable Law (as if Focus Common Stock were registered under the Exchange Act); provided, however, that compliance by Focus with such obligations shall not relieve Focus of any of its obligations under this Section 5.04 and shall not be deemed to permit the Focus Board to make a Change in Recommendation or take any of the actions referred to in Section 5.06(e), except to the extent permitted by Section 5.06(f).

Section 5.05                Registration Statement; Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus; NASDAQ Listing.

(a)                               As promptly as practicable, by in any event no later than forty-five (45) days from the date of this Agreement, Focus and HCC shall jointly cause the Registration Statement to be prepared, and HCC shall cause the Registration Statement (in which Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus will be included with respect to the issuance of HCC Common Stock in the Merger) to be filed with the SEC.  Focus and HCC shall each furnish all information concerning it and the holders of its capital stock as the other may reasonably request in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement and any amendment thereto. HCC and Focus shall each use their respective reasonable commercial efforts to cause the Registration Statement and Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus to comply with the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC, to respond promptly to any comments of the SEC or its staff, and to have the Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after it is filed with the SEC. HCC and Focus shall notify each other promptly of the receipt of any comments from the SEC or its staff and of any request by the SEC or its staff for amendments or supplements to Registration Statement or for additional information and shall supply each other with copies of all correspondence between such party or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or its staff, on the other hand, with respect to Registration Statement or the Merger. HCC shall also file and use reasonable commercial efforts to cause to become effective as promptly as possible any amendment to the Registration Statement, including the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus and, if required, Focus shall mail to its shareholders any such amendment

54

that becomes necessary after the date the Registration Statement is declared effective. If at any time prior to the Effective Time either Focus or HCC becomes aware of any event or circumstance which is required to be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus, it shall promptly inform the other party. Each of HCC and Focus will advise the other, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the time when the Registration Statement has become effective or any supplement or amendment thereto has been filed, the issuance of any stop order, or any request by the staff of the SEC for amendment of the Registration Statement or Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus or comments thereon or responses thereto.

(b)                              Each of HCC and Focus shall use reasonable commercial efforts to cause all documents that it is responsible for filing with the SEC in connection with the Contemplated Transactions to comply as to form and substance in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as applicable.

(c)                               Prior to the Effective Time, HCC shall use reasonable commercial efforts to qualify the HCC Common Stock under the securities or the “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions as may be required; provided, however, that HCC shall not be required to (i) qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction in which it is not now so qualified, (ii) file a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction, or (iii) subject itself to taxation in any jurisdiction in which it is not so subject.

(d)                             HCC shall use reasonable commercial efforts to have the shares of HCC Common Stock to be issued in the Merger listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market as of the Closing Date upon notice of issuance.

Section 5.06                Shareholder Meetings.

(a)                               Each of HCC and Focus shall take all action necessary in accordance with applicable Law and their respective Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws or similar organizational documents to duly call, give notice of, convene and, as soon as practicable but not later than forty-five (45) days after the Registration Statement is declared effective, hold a meeting of its shareholders and, except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.06, use its reasonable best efforts to take such other actions necessary to obtain the relevant shareholder approvals, in each case as promptly as practicable for the purpose of obtaining the Requisite HCC Vote, in the case of HCC, and the Requisite Focus Vote. Focus and HCC shall cooperate to schedule and convene the Focus Meeting and the HCC Meeting on the same date. Focus (in consultation with HCC) shall set a single date for persons entitled to notice of and to vote at the Focus Meeting and shall not change such record date (whether in connection with the Focus Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof) without the prior consent of HCC.

(b)                              Except in the case of a Change in Recommendation permitted by Section 5.06(f), Focus shall solicit, and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain, the Requisite Focus Vote at the Focus Meeting. Subject to Section 5.06(f), Focus shall (i) through the Focus Board, recommend to its shareholders adoption of this Agreement (the “Focus Board Recommendation”), (ii) include such recommendation in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus and (iii) use reasonable best efforts to obtain the Focus Requisite Vote from its shareholders.  Focus hereby

55

acknowledges its obligation to submit this Agreement to its shareholders at the Focus Meeting as provided in this Section 5.06.

(c)                               HCC shall solicit, and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain, the Requisite HCC Vote at the HCC Meeting. HCC shall (i) through its Board of Directors, recommend to its shareholders approve the issuance of the HCC Common Stock in connection with the Merger for purposes of NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635 and Section 1201(b) of the CGCL, and (ii) include such recommendation in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

(d)                             Focus and HCC shall cooperate and keep the other party informed on a current basis regarding its solicitation efforts and voting results following the dissemination of the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus to the shareholders of Focus and HCC. If at any time following the dissemination of the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus (i) Focus reasonably determines in good faith that the Requisite HCC Vote is unlikely to be obtained at the HCC Meeting, or (ii) HCC reasonably determines in good faith that the Requisite Focus Vote is unlikely to be obtained at the Focus Meeting, then prior to the vote contemplated having been taken such party may request that the other party adjourn or postpone its meeting for up to forty-five (45) days from then-scheduled date and the other party shall comply with such request; provided, however, that Focus or HCC, as applicable, shall be required to adjourn or postpone its meeting on only one occasion.  During any such period of adjournment or postponement, Focus and HCC shall continue in all respects to comply with their obligations under this Section 5.06 and, subject to Section 5.06, shall in good faith use reasonable best efforts to obtain shareholder approval or negotiate a restructuring of the Contemplated Transactions, including the Merger (it being understood that neither party shall have any obligation to alter or change the amount or kind of the Merger Consideration in a manner adverse to such party or its shareholders) and, subject to this Section 5.06, seek to obtain the Requisite HCC Vote or the Requisite Focus Vote, as applicable.  Except as set forth in this Section 5.06, no party shall have the obligation to postpone or adjourn its shareholder meeting.

(e)                               Subject to Section 5.06(f), neither the Focus Board nor any committee thereof shall (i) withdraw, modify, amend or qualify the Focus Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to HCC (it being understood that the failure of the Focus Board Recommendation to be unanimous shall constitute a withdrawal, modification, amendment or qualification that is adverse to HCC), (ii) adopt or propose a resolution to withdraw, amend or qualify the Focus Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to HCC, (iii) take any other action that is or becomes disclosed publicly and which can reasonably be interpreted to indicate that the Focus 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 Focus’s shareholders (it being understood that taking a neutral position or no position with respect to any Acquisition Proposal shall constitute an adverse modification), (iv) publicly announce its intention to withdraw, modify, amend or qualify the Focus Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to HCC, (v) fail to reaffirm without qualification the Focus Board Recommendation, or fail to state publicly without qualification that the Merger and this Agreement are in the best interests of Focus’s shareholders, within five (5) business days after HCC requests in writing that such action be taken, (vi) fail to announce publicly, within ten (10) business days after a tender offer or exchange offer relating to securities of Focus shall have been commenced, that the Focus Board recommends rejection of such tender or exchange offer, (vii) fail to issue, within ten (10)

56

business days after an Acquisition Proposal is publicly announced, a press release announcing its opposition to such Acquisition Proposal, (viii) approve, endorse, or recommend any Acquisition Proposal, or (ix) resolve or propose to take any action described in clauses (i) through (viii) of this sentence (each of the foregoing actions described in clauses (i) through (viii) of this sentence being referred to as a “Change in Recommendation”).

(f)                                Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.06(e) or elsewhere in this Agreement, at any time prior to obtaining the Requisite Focus Vote, the Focus Board may effect a Change of Recommendation with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, if (i) Focus has complied with its obligations under Section 5.04 and 5.06(a), (b) and (d), (ii) the Focus Board receives an unsolicited bona fide, written Acquisition Proposal from any person that is not withdrawn, and (iii) a majority of the entire Focus Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its independent financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal; provided, however, that (A) a majority of the entire Focus Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure of the Focus Board to take such action would be or would reasonably likely to be a violation of its fiduciary duties to the shareholders of Focus under applicable Law, and (B) (1) Focus provides HCC prior written notice at least five (5) business days (or such longer period as it may be extended upon the modification or amendment of the Acquisition Proposal as contemplated below) prior to taking such action, which notice shall state that the Focus Board has received a Superior Proposal and, absent any revision to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Focus Board has resolved to effect a Change of Recommendation, which notice shall specify the basis for such Change of Recommendation or termination, including the material terms of the Superior Proposal and the proposed documents and agreements to effect the Superior Proposal (a “Notice of Superior Proposal”) (it being understood that such Notice of Superior Proposal shall not in and of itself be deemed a Change of Recommendation); (2) during such five (5) business day period (as it may be extended upon the modification or amendment of the Acquisition Proposal as contemplated below), Focus negotiates in good faith (including by making its officers, directors and its financial and legal advisors reasonably available to negotiate) with HCC (to the extent that HCC wishes to negotiate) to enable HCC to make an offer that is at least as favorable to the shareholders of Focus so that such Acquisition Proposal would cease to constitute a Superior Proposal; and (3) at the end of such five (5) business day period (as it may be extended upon the modification or amendment of the Acquisition Proposal as contemplated below, or such earlier time that HCC advises Focus in writing that it no longer wishes to negotiate to amend this Agreement), a majority of the entire Focus Board, after taking into account any modifications to the terms of this Agreement and the Merger agreed to by HCC after receipt of such notice, continues to believe (after consultation with its independent financial advisors and outside legal counsel) that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure to accept the Acquisition Proposal would or would reasonably likely to result in a violation of its fiduciary duties to Focus shareholders under applicable Law. In the event of any revisions to the terms of an Acquisition Proposal giving rise to the Notice of Superior Proposal that are material to such Acquisition Proposal after the Notice of Superior Proposal has been given to HCC, such revisions shall be deemed a new Acquisition Proposal and  Focus shall be required to deliver a new Notice of Superior Proposal  to HCC and to comply with the requirements of this Section 5.06(f) with respect to such new  Acquisition Proposal, provided, however, that the notice period of clause (f)(iii)(B)(1) shall  be reduced to three (3) business days.

57

(g)                              Nothing in Section 5.06(f) shall be interpreted to excuse Focus and the Focus Board from complying with its unqualified obligation to submit this Agreement to its shareholders at the Focus Meeting and Focus shall not submit to the vote of its shareholders at or prior to the Focus Meeting any Acquisition Proposal other than the Merger. Without limiting the foregoing, if the Focus Board has withdrawn or modified the Focus Board Recommendation as permitted by Section 5.06(f), then, unless this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with Section 7.01, the Focus Board shall submit this Agreement to Focus’s shareholders without recommendation (although the resolutions adopting this Agreement as of the date hereof may not be rescinded or amended), in which event the Focus Board may communicate the basis for its lack of a recommendation to Focus’s shareholders in Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus or an appropriate amendment or supplement thereto to the extent required by applicable Law.

Section 5.07                Approvals.

(a)                               Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement (including those contained in this Section 5.07), each of HCC and Focus shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use its reasonable best efforts to take or cause to be taken all actions, and to do or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective, and to satisfy all conditions to the Contemplated Transactions, including (i) obtaining all necessary Governmental Authorizations, and the making all necessary registrations and filings (including filings with Governmental Entities, which shall be made within thirty (30) days of the date of this Agreement (other than the Registration Statement, which shall be within the time stated in Section 5.05(a)) and the taking of all steps as may be necessary or advisable to obtain an approval or waiver from or to avoid an action or proceeding by any Governmental Entity, (ii) obtaining all necessary consents or waivers from or providing notice to third parties (including actions required in order to continue any Focus Material Contract (including any Contract entered into following the date of this Agreement that would have been a Focus Material Contract at the time this Agreement was entered into) following the Closing or to avoid any penalty or other fee under such Focus Material Contract, in each case arising in connection with the Contemplated Transactions, and (iii) the execution and delivery of any additional instruments necessary to consummate the Merger and to fully carry out the purposes of this Agreement.  Subject to applicable Law, Focus and HCC shall promptly cooperate and coordinate with the other in the taking of the actions contemplated by clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) immediately above and supply the other with any information that may be reasonably required in order to effectuate the taking of such actions. Each party hereto shall promptly inform the other party of any communication from any Governmental Entity regarding any of the Contemplated Transactions. If Focus or HCC receives a request for additional information or documentary material from any Governmental Entity with respect to Contemplated Transactions, then it shall use reasonable commercial efforts to make, or cause to be made, as soon as reasonably practicable and after consultation with the other party, an appropriate response in compliance with such request. Neither HCC nor Focus shall commit to or agree (or permit their respective Subsidiaries to commit to or agree) with any Governmental Entity to stay, toll or extend any applicable waiting period under any applicable Law without the prior written consent of the other. In the event that any party shall fail to obtain any such third party consent as required in clause (ii), that party shall use reasonable commercial efforts, and shall take any such actions reasonably requested by the other party, to minimize any adverse effect on the consummation of the Merger on the Surviving Corporation businesses and financial

58

condition resulting, or that would be reasonably likely to result after the Effective Time, from the failure to obtain such consent.

(b)                              Subject to applicable Law relating to the exchange of information, HCC and Focus shall upon request furnish each other with all information concerning HCC, HBC, Focus and their respective Subsidiaries, directors, officers and shareholders and such other matters as may be reasonably necessary in connection with any statement, filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of HCC, HBC, Focus or any of their respective Subsidiaries to any Governmental Entity in connection with the Contemplated Transactions. HCC and Focus 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 Law relating to the exchange of information, any filing made or proposed to be made with, or written materials submitted or proposed to be submitted to, any third party or any Governmental Entity in connection with the Contemplated Transactions.

(c)                               Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement, under no circumstances shall HCC, HBC or Focus or any of their respective Subsidiaries be required, and the other party and its Subsidiaries shall not be permitted (without the first party’s written consent in its sole discretion), to take any action or commit to take any action, or agree to any condition, restriction or requirement, involving any of them pursuant to this Section 5.07 or otherwise in connection with obtaining the foregoing Government Authorizations, that would, or would be reasonably likely to, individually or in the aggregate, materially reduce the benefits of the Merger to such a degree that the first party would not have entered into this Agreement had such conditions, restrictions or requirements been known at the date of this Agreement (a “Burdensome Condition”); provided, however, that if requested by HCC, then Focus and its Subsidiaries will take or commit to take any such action, or agree to any such condition or restriction, so long as such action, commitment, agreement, condition or restriction is binding on Focus and its Subsidiaries only in the event the Closing occurs.

(d)                             Subject to applicable Law (including applicable Law relating to the exchange of information), Focus and HCC shall keep each other apprised of the status of matters relating to the completion of the Contemplated Transactions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing (i) each of HCC, HBC and Focus shall promptly furnish the other with copies of notices or other communications received by it or any of its Subsidiaries, respectively (or written summaries of communications received orally), from any third party or Governmental Entity with respect to the Contemplated Transactions, (ii) each of HCC, HBC and Focus shall provide the other a reasonable opportunity to review in advance, and to the extent practicable accept the reasonable comments of the other in connection with, any proposed non-confidential written communication to, including any filings with, any Governmental Entity, and (iii) Focus shall consider in good faith HCC’s views with respect to and confer in good faith with HCC to resolve any disagreement as to strategy with respect to any communication by Focus or any of its Subsidiaries with any Governmental Entity or third party relating to the Contemplated Transactions.

(e)                               In the event that any Legal Action is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by a Governmental Entity challenging the Contemplated Transactions, Focus shall cause its Subsidiaries to cooperate in all respects with HCC and shall use its reasonable commercial efforts to contest and resist any such Legal Action and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or

59

overturned any Order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of the Contemplated Transactions.

Section 5.08                Current Information and Reports. During the Pre-Closing Period:

Focus will promptly provide to HCC (and not later than five (5) business days after delivery) reports and other documents provided to the Loan Committee and the ALCO Committee (or similar committee) of the Focus Board.

Section 5.10    Supplemental Disclosure Schedules. During the Pre-Closing Period, Focus and HCC will promptly supplement or amend its disclosure schedule the execution of this Agreement to reflect any matter which, if existing, occurring or known at the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in such disclosure schedule or which is necessary to correct any information in such disclosure schedule which has been rendered inaccurate thereby. No supplement or amendment to such disclosure schedule shall have any effect for the purpose of determining satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 6.02(a) or Section 6.02(b) (in the case of HCC) or Section 6.03(a) or Section 6.03(b) (in the case of Focus) or otherwise affect the respective rights, obligations, representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the parties or the conditions to the obligations of the parties under this Agreement.

Continuing Employees shall be offered salary or wage levels at least equal to the salary or wage levels to which such employees were entitled to immediately prior to the Closing Date.  Subject to the provisions of this Section 5.11, as soon as administratively practicable after the Effective Time, HCC shall take all reasonable action so that Continuing Employees shall be entitled to participate in each employee benefit plan, program or arrangement of HCC and HBC of general applicability (the “HCC Benefit Plans”) to the same extent as similarly-situated employees of HCC and HBC (it being understood that inclusion of Continuing Employees in HCC Benefit Plans may occur at different times with respect to different plans), provided, however, that coverage shall be continued under corresponding benefit plans of Focus (to the extent such Focus plans have not been terminated) until such employees are permitted to participate in the HCC Benefit Plans and, provided further, that Continuing Employees shall not have the opportunity to participate in the HBC 2005 Amended and Restated Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”).

(d)       HCC in its sole discretion, may elect to terminate the Focus 401(k) Plan or to discontinue contributions to the Focus 401(k) Plan anytime following the Effective Time, to cause Focus to terminate the 401(k) Plan to be effective at the Effective Time, or to merge the Focus 401(k) Plan with and into the HBC 401(k) Plan after the Effective Time.

63

of fact arising, existing or occurring at or before the Effective Time (including the Merger and the other Contemplated Transactions), regardless of whether such Claim is asserted or claimed before or after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted under Focus’s Charter Documents and applicable Law. HCC shall pay reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) in advance of the final disposition of any such proceeding to each Indemnified Party to the extent permissible under applicable Law upon receipt of an undertaking to repay such advance payments if he or she shall be adjudicated or determined to be not entitled to indemnification under this Section 5.12.

(b)        Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under Section 5.12(a), upon learning of any Claim, shall promptly notify HCC thereof; provided, however, that failure to so notify will not affect the obligations of HCC under Section 5.12(a) unless and to the extent that HCC is actually prejudiced as a consequence. In the event of any such Legal Action (whether arising before or after the Effective Time), (i) HCC shall have the right to assume the defense thereof and HCC shall not be liable to such Indemnified Parties for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Parties in connection with the defense thereof, except that if HCC elects not to assume such defense, Indemnified Parties may retain counsel satisfactory to them, and HCC shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel for Indemnified Parties promptly as statements therefor are received; provided, however, that HCC shall be obligated pursuant to this Section 5.12(b) to pay for only one firm of counsel for all Indemnified Parties in any jurisdiction, (ii) Indemnified Parties will cooperate in the defense of any such Claim, and (iii) HCC shall not be liable for any settlement effected without its prior written consent; and provided, further, that HCC shall not have any obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Party when and if a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine, and such determination shall have become final, that the indemnification of such Indemnified Party in the manner contemplated under Section 5.12(a) is prohibited by applicable Law.

(c)        HCC and Focus shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the persons serving as officers and directors of Focus immediately prior to the Effective Time to be covered by a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance tail policy obtained from Focus’s current insurance carrier (the “Tail Insurance Policy”) of substantially the same coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions which are generally not less advantageous than Focus’s current policy with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time that were committed by such officers and directors in their capacity as such for a period of six (6) years; provided, however, that in no event shall the cost of the Tail Insurance Policy be more than two hundred percent (200%) of the current amount expended on an annual basis by Focus for its current policy; provided, further, that if the Tail Insurance Policy cannot be obtained as provided by this Section 5.12(c),  HCC shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain as much comparable insurance as is available; provided, further, that officers and directors of Focus may be required to make application and provide customary representations and warranties to an insurance carrier for the purpose of obtaining the Tail Insurance Policy.

(d)       This Section 5.12 shall survive the Effective Time and is intended to benefit each Indemnified Person (each of whom shall be entitled to enforce this Section 5.12 against HCC) and shall be binding on all successors and assigns of HCC.

(b)        by HCC or Focus if the Merger shall not have been consummated by 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time on or before March 31, 2016 (the “End Date”); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.01(b) shall not be available to a party whose failure to perform any obligation required to be performed by such party was the primary cause of, or resulted in the failure of the Merger to be consummated on or before the End Date;

(c)        (i) by either HCC or Focus if any Governmental Entity which must grant a Requisite Regulatory Approval has denied such approval and such denial has become final and nonappealable, (ii) by either HCC or Focus if any Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction shall have issued a final nonappealable Order enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions, unless such denial or Order shall be due to the failure of the party seeking to terminate this Agreement to perform or observe the covenants and agreements of such party set forth in this Agreement, or (iii) by HCC if any Regulatory Approval includes, or will not be issued without, the imposition of a Burdensome Condition;

(d)       by either HCC or Focus if (i) the HCC Meeting (including any postponements or adjournments thereof) shall have been held and the Requisite HCC Vote shall not have been obtained or (ii) the Focus Meeting (including any postponements or adjournments thereof) shall have been held and the Requisite Focus Vote shall have not been obtained; provided, however, that the party seeking to terminate this Agreement under this Section 7.01(d) shall have complied in all material respects with its obligations under Section 5.06 (including by complying with an adjournment or postponement request under Section 5.06(d)); provided further, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 7.01(d) will not be available to a party where the failure to obtain the approval of its shareholders has been caused by (i) its material breach of this Agreement, or (ii) in the case of Focus a breach of the Shareholder Agreements entered into by one or more shareholders of Focus;

(e)        by HCC if (i) the Focus Board effects a Change in Recommendation, (ii) Focus, or any of its Subsidiaries or any Representative of Focus or any of its Subsidiaries, shall have violated, breached, or taken any action inconsistent with any of the provisions set forth in

74

Section 5.04 or Section 5.06(a), (c)-(g), or (iii) the Focus Board or any committee thereof shall have resolved or proposed to take any action described in clauses (i) and (ii) of this sentence;

(f)        by HCC (i) if (A) any of Focus’s representations and warranties become inaccurate as of a date subsequent to the date of this Agreement (as if made on such subsequent date), such that the condition set forth in Section 6.02(a) would not be satisfied if the condition were then being tested, and (B) such inaccuracy, if capable of cure, has not been cured by Focus prior to the earlier of the End Date and thirty (30) days after its receipt of written notice thereof, or (ii) if any of Focus’s covenants contained in this Agreement shall have been breached such that the condition set forth in Section 6.02(b) would not be satisfied and such breach is not curable or shall not have been cured within thirty (30) days following Focus’s receipt of written notice from HCC of such breach or such breach by its nature is not capable of being cured prior to the Closing;

(h)        by Focus, if prior to the receipt of the Requisite Focus Vote, Focus (i) has complied with Sections 5.04 and 5.06 and is not otherwise in material breach of this Agreement, (ii) receives an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal from any person that is not withdrawn, and a majority of the entire Focus Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its independent financial advisors and outside legal counsel), that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that failure of the Focus Board to accept the Acquisition Proposal would be or would be reasonably likely to result in a violation of its fiduciary duties to the shareholders of Focus under applicable Law, (iii) pays HCC the Termination Fee in immediately available funds and (iv) simultaneously or substantially simultaneously with such termination Focus enters into a definitive acquisition, merger or similar agreement to effect the Superior Proposal; provided, however, that (A) Focus provides HCC prior written notice at least five (5) business days (or such longer period as it may be extended upon modification or amendment of the Acquisition Proposal as contemplated below) prior to taking such action, which notice shall state that the Focus Board has received a Superior Proposal and, absent any revision to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Focus Board has resolved to effect a termination of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 7.01(h) and includes the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal (including copies of the proposed documents and agreements to effect the Superior Proposal)  and the identity of the person making such Superior Proposal,  (B)  during such five (5) business day period (as it may be extended upon modification or amendment of the Acquisition Proposal as contemplated below), Focus negotiates in good faith  (including by making its officers, directors and its financial and legal advisors reasonably available to negotiate) with HCC (to the

75

extent HCC wishes to negotiate) to enable HCC to make an offer that is at least as favorable to the shareholders of Focus so that such Acquisition Proposal would cease to constitute a Superior Proposal (“Revised HCC Proposal”), (C) at the end of such five (5) business day period (as it may be extended upon modification or amendment of the Acquisition Proposal as contemplated below, or such earlier time that HCC advises Focus in writing it no longer wishes to negotiate to amend this Agreement), a majority of the entire Focus Board, after taking into account the Revised HCC Proposal continues to believe (after consultation with its independent financial advisors and outside legal counsel) that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that failure to accept the Acquisition Proposal would or would be reasonably likely to result in a violation of its fiduciary duties to the shareholders of Focus under applicable Law, provided, further that in the event of any revisions to the terms of an Acquisition Proposal that are material to such Acquisition Proposal after the start of the five (5) business day period of clause (iv)(A), such revisions shall be deemed a new Acquisition Proposal and Focus shall be required to deliver a new written notice as required by clause (iv)(A) to HCC and to comply with the requirements of this Section 7.01(h) with respect to such new Acquisition Proposal, except, that the notice period of clause (iv)(A) shall  be reduced to three (3) business days.

Any termination pursuant to this Section 7.01 (other than pursuant to Section 7.01(a)) shall be effected by written notice from the terminating party to the other party.

Section 7.02    Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 7.01, this Agreement shall be of no further force or effect; provided, however, that (a) Section 5.03(b), this Section 7.02, Section 7.03, and Article VIII shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect, and (b) the termination of this Agreement shall not relieve any party from any liability for fraud, or any willful material inaccuracy in or willful material breach of any representation, or any willful material breach of any warranty, covenant, or other provision contained in this Agreement.

Section 7.03    Expenses; Termination Fees.

(iii)       (A) by HCC or Focus pursuant to Section 7.01(b), (B) by HCC or Focus pursuant to Section 7.01(d)(ii) or (C) by HCC pursuant to Section 7.01(f) and, in any case of (A), (B) or (C), (x) on or before the date of any such termination an Acquisition Proposal shall have been announced, disclosed, or otherwise made known to the Focus shareholders, the senior management of Focus or the Focus Board, and (y) Focus enters into a definitive agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, or an Acquisition Proposal is consummated or Focus enters

into any letter of intent, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement or similar contract with respect to an Acquisition Proposal within twelve (12) months following termination of this Agreement.

The parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 7.03 are an integral part of the Contemplated Transactions and that, without these agreements, the parties would not enter into this Agreement.  The parties further acknowledge and agree that the remedies set forth in this Section 7.03(b) shall be the sole and exclusive remedies for any losses or damages incurred by HCC arising from the termination of this Agreement pursuant to any Section giving rise to Focus’s obligation to pay such amount, except that payment of the fees described in this Section 7.03(b) shall not be in lieu of liability pursuant to Section 7.02(b).

(c)        A Termination Fee required to be paid pursuant to Section 7.03(b)(i) shall be paid within two (2) business days after termination, and a Termination Fee required to be paid pursuant to Section 7.03(b)(ii) shall be paid on or prior to the date of termination and any Termination Fee payable pursuant to Section 7.03(b)(iii) shall be paid within two (2) business days after the event giving rise to such payment.

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 HCC with respect to any possible Acquisition Proposal and will take all necessary steps to inform any Representative retained by him or her of the obligations undertaken by Shareholder pursuant to this Section 5.

or her fiduciary duties and responsibilities as a director of Focus or as a trustee of any Focus benefit plan.

8.         Stop Transfer Order.  In furtherance of this Agreement, Shareholder hereby authorizes and instructs Focus to enter a stop transfer order with respect to all of Shareholder’s Shares for the period from the date of this Agreement through the date this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 9.

10.       Specific Performance.  Shareholder acknowledges that it is a condition to the willingness of HCC to enter into the Merger Agreement that Shareholder execute and deliver this Agreement and that it will be impossible to measure in money the damage to HCC if Shareholder fails to comply with the obligations imposed by this Agreement and that, in the event of any such failure, HCC will not have an adequate remedy at law or in equity. Accordingly, Shareholder agrees that injunctive relief or other equitable remedy is the appropriate remedy for any such failure and will not oppose the granting of such relief by a court of competent jurisdiction on the basis that HCC 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 Focus’s seeking or obtaining such equitable relief. Such injunctive and other equitable remedies are cumulative and shall be HCC’s sole remedy under this Agreement, unless HCC shall have sought and been denied by a court of competent jurisdiction injunctive or other equitable remedies and such denial is other than by reason of violation of this Agreement by HCC.
