PRE-CLOSING COVENANTS

4.1 Exclusivity. Without the prior written consent of each Purchaser (which consent may be withheld at such Purchaser’s sole discretion) until the earlier of (x) the date of the Closing and (y) the date on which this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, the Corporation agrees not to (and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any employee, officer, director, partner, agent, trustee, representative or other Person acting on its behalf or any entity under its control or at its direction to), directly or indirectly, sell or agree to sell to any other Person, discuss or negotiate with any other Person a possible sale of, or solicit or accept any offer to purchase from any other Person, all or any part of the Corporation’s or its Subsidiaries’ Equity Securities or assets (whether such transaction takes the form of an issuance or sale of common stock or other securities, merger, consolidation, sale of assets, liquidation, dissolution, refinancing, recapitalization, reorganization or otherwise), or provide any information to any other Person concerning the Corporation or its Subsidiaries. The Corporation represents and warrants that it has ceased all discussions with all Persons (other than the Purchasers) regarding all of the foregoing, and that none of the Corporation, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, affiliates, partners, trustees, agents or representatives is a party to or bound by any agreement relating to any of the foregoing, other than agreements with Purchasers.

(e) promptly (once any officer or director of the Corporation obtains knowledge thereof) inform Purchasers in writing of any material variances from the representations and warranties contained in Article 6 or any material breach of any covenant hereunder by the Corporation; and

(ii) propose or agree to accept any term or condition or otherwise modify the terms of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to obtain any consent, acceptance, or approval of any Governmental Entity to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents if such term, condition, modification or confirmation would (x) materially adversely affect (with respect to the Corporation or its Affiliates) any material term of the transactions, or (y) adversely affect (with respect to the Corporation or its Affiliates) any material

financial term of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE CORPORATION

On or prior to the date hereof, the Corporation has delivered to the Purchasers a complete set of Schedules setting forth, among other things, items the disclosure of which is necessary or appropriate either in response to an express disclosure requirement contained in a provision hereof or as an exception to one or more representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement.

Except for this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and as set forth on the Capitalization Schedule, there are no agreements or understandings between or among the Corporation and the holders of any of its Equity Securities or, to the Knowledge of the Corporation, among any other Persons with respect to the voting or transfer of the Corporation’s Equity Securities (including registration rights) or with respect to any other aspect of its governance.

6.3 Subsidiaries; Investments.

6.4 Authorization.

(a) The Corporation has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Corporation and the consummation by the Corporation of the Transactions, including the issuance of the Series C Preferred and the reservation for issuance and the issuance of the Conversion Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred, have been duly authorized by the Board and, other than as described at the beginning of this Section 6.4, no further corporate action on the part of the Corporation is required in connection therewith. Except as disclosed on the Authorization and Consent Schedule or as otherwise specified in this Section 6.4, no filing, consent or authorization is required by the Corporation, the Board or its shareholders with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. The Transaction Documents have been duly executed and delivered by the Corporation and constitute, and, upon execution and delivery thereof by the Corporation as contemplated herein, will constitute, legal, valid and binding obligations of the Corporation, enforceable against the Corporation in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity, applicable bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies or as indemnification or contribution may be limited by the securities laws and public policy relating thereto.

transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by the Corporation and/or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, and, to the extent required under their respective applicable Governing Documents or otherwise, its shareholders, directors, partners, managers and/or members. Each Transaction Document to which the Corporation and/or any Subsidiary is a party has been duly executed and delivered by the Corporation and/or such Subsidiary and constitutes valid and binding obligations of the Corporation and/or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, enforceable in accordance with its respective terms.

6.5 No Contravention. Except as set forth on the Restrictions Schedule, the execution and delivery by the Corporation and/or any Subsidiary of each Transaction Document to which the Corporation and/or such Subsidiary is a party, the consummation of the Transaction and the consummation of all of the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and the fulfillment of and compliance with the respective terms hereof and thereof by the Corporation and/or each Subsidiary, as the case may be, did not, do not and shall not, as the case may be, (a) conflict with or result in a breach or violation of, (b) constitute a default under (whether with or without the passage of time, the giving of notice or both), (c) result in the creation of any Lien or Encumbrance upon the Corporation’s Equity Securities or assets pursuant to, (d) give any third party the right to modify, terminate or accelerate, or cause any modification, termination or acceleration of, any obligation under, (e) create any right to payment or any other right (concurrently or with the passage of time and/or upon the occurrence of one or more events or conditions), or (f) require any authorization, consent, approval, exemption or other action by or notice or declaration to, or filing with, any third party or any Governmental Entity, the Corporation’s or any Subsidiary’s Governing Documents, or any Law to which the Corporation, any Subsidiary is subject, or any order, judgment or decree or any contract, agreement, instrument or document to which the Corporation or any Subsidiary is a party or is otherwise subject.

6.6 Financial Statements and Related Matters. Attached hereto to the Financial Statements Schedule are the following financial statements (the “Financial Statements”):

(a) the consolidated and consolidating audited balance sheet of the Bank as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2011 and the related statements of operation, cash flows and shareholders’ equity (or the equivalent) for the twelve (12) month period then ended; and

Each of the foregoing Financial Statements (including the notes thereto, if any) is consistent with the books and records of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries (which books and records are accurate and complete in all material respects), presents fairly in all material respects the financial condition and results of operations and cash flows of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and for the periods covered thereby and has been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods covered thereby (subject, in the

case of the unaudited Financial Statements, to the absence of footnote disclosures and, in the case of the Latest Balance Sheet, to normal year-end adjustments for recurring accruals (which shall not be material, individually or in the aggregate)).

6.7 Absence of Undisclosed Liabilities. Except as set forth on the Liabilities Schedule, neither the Corporation nor any Subsidiary have or will have any material obligation or liability (whether accrued, absolute, contingent, unliquidated or otherwise, whether known or unknown, whether due or to become due and regardless of when asserted) arising out of any transactions entered into, at or prior to the date hereof, or any action or inaction at or prior to the date hereof, or any state of facts existing at or prior to the date hereof, other than: (a) liabilities set forth on the liabilities side of the Latest Balance Sheet (including any notes thereto), (b) liabilities and obligations which have arisen after the date of the Latest Balance Sheet in the ordinary course of business (none of which is a liability resulting from noncompliance with any applicable Laws, breach of contract, breach of warranty, tort, infringement, claim or lawsuit) and (c) other liabilities that do not individually exceed $100,000 or in the aggregate exceed $250,000.

6.8 No Material Adverse Effect.

6.10 Governmental and Regulatory Proceedings. There is no action or proceeding to which the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries is a party pending or, to the Knowledge of the Corporation, threatened or contemplated, before any Governmental Entity or self-regulatory organization (i) that challenges the validity or propriety of the transactions contemplated hereby or (ii) if determined adversely to the Corporation or any Subsidiary would reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect. To the Knowledge of the Corporation, no executive officer, director or employee of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries is the subject of any action or proceeding involving a claim of material breach of fiduciary duty relating to the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries or is or may be permanently or temporarily enjoined by any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Entity or self-regulatory organization from engaging in or continuing to conduct any of the businesses of the Corporation or any Subsidiary. No order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Entity or self-regulatory organization has been issued in any action or proceeding to which the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries is or was a party that would reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

6.11 Agreements with Regulatory Agencies. Except as set forth on the Regulatory Issues Schedule, neither the Corporation nor any Subsidiary is subject to any cease-and-desist or other similar order or enforcement action issued by, or is a party to any written agreement, consent agreement or memorandum of understanding with, or is a party to any commitment letter or similar undertaking to, or is subject to any capital directive by, or has adopted any board

resolutions at the request of, or is subject to any supervisory letter from, or has been ordered to pay any civil money penalty by, or has adopted any policies or procedures at the request of, any Governmental Entity (each item in this sentence, a “Regulatory Agreement”), nor has the Corporation or any Subsidiary been advised by any such Governmental Entity that it is considering issuing, initiating, ordering or requesting any such Regulatory Agreement. The Corporation and each Subsidiary are in compliance in all respects with each Regulatory Agreement to which it is party or subject, and neither the Corporation nor any Subsidiary has received any notice from any Governmental Entity indicating that either the Corporation or any Subsidiary is not in compliance in all material respects with any such Regulatory Agreement.

6.12 Risk Management Instruments. All derivative instruments, including, swaps, caps, floors and option agreements, whether entered into for the Corporation’s own account, or for the account of one or more of its Subsidiaries or its or their customers, were entered into (i) only in the ordinary course of business, (ii) in accordance with prudent practices and in all material respects with all applicable Laws and (iii) with counterparties believed to be financially responsible at the time; and each of such instruments constitutes the valid and legally binding obligation of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries, enforceable in accordance with its terms. Neither the Corporation or its Subsidiaries, nor, any other party thereto, is in breach of any of its obligations under any such agreement or arrangement.

6.13 No Restrictions. Except as set forth on the No Restrictions Schedule, neither the Corporation nor any Subsidiary is currently prohibited, directly or indirectly, under any order of any Governmental Entity (other than orders, regulations or policy statements applicable to bank holding companies and their subsidiaries generally), or any agreement or other instrument to which it is a party or is subject, from paying any dividends, from making any other distribution on its Equity Securities, from repaying any loans or advances or from transferring any of its properties or assets.

8.7 Indemnification Procedure.

(a) If any Losses for which indemnification is provided under Section 8.6 relate to a claim, demand, action, suit, countersuit, litigation, dispute, order, writ, injunction, judgment, assessment, decree, grievance, investigation or other proceeding by a third-party (a “Third-Party Claim”), the Indemnitee will give written notice of such Third-Party Claim (including a reasonable description thereof) to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) within thirty (30) days of notification of the Third-Party Claim, provided that the Indemnitee’s right to indemnification will not be waived by any failure to provide notification within such ten (10) day period, unless such failure materially prejudices the ability of the Indemnifying Party to defend the Third-Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party will have 15 days from the receipt of such notice (the “Indemnity Acknowledgement Period”) to (i) give written notice to the Indemnitee of its intention to defend such Third-Party Claim on behalf of the Indemnitee, which notice will acknowledge the obligation of the Indemnifying Party to indemnify the Indemnitee against, and be fully responsible (with no reservation of any rights) for, all liabilities and obligations relating to such Third-Party Claim (subject to the Cap where applicable), and (ii) enter into an agreement with the Indemnitee in form and substance satisfactory to the Indemnitee which agreement unconditionally guarantees the payment and performance of any liability or Loss which may arise with respect to such Third-Party Claim.

(b) If notice to defend and the required acknowledgement and agreement are given by the Indemnifying Party within the Indemnity Acknowledgement Period, the Indemnifying Party will have the right to compromise or defend any such Third-Party Claim through counsel of its own choosing (provided that such counsel is reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee) and at its own expense; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party will not agree to any settlement or remedy (i) that involves any remedy other than a pure monetary resolution, including, without limitation, injunctive relief against the Indemnitee or requires the Indemnitee to enter into a consent decree or (ii) requires the Indemnitee to confess to any wrongdoing, unless the Indemnitee consents in writing to such settlement or remedy. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to defend any such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party

will promptly provide the Indemnitee with copies of all pleadings and filings pertinent to the Third-Party Claim. The Indemnitee shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnitee; provided, that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnitee, (x) there are legal defenses available to an Indemnitee that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party; or (y) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnitee that cannot be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnitee in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnitee determines counsel is required.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party fails to give written notice to the Indemnitee within the Indemnity Acknowledgement Period of the Indemnifying Party’s intention to defend such Third-Party Claim at its own expense and acknowledging its obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee against such claim or fails to defend diligently and continuously a Third-Party Claim against the Indemnitee, the Indemnitee will have the right to compromise or defend such Third-Party Claim through counsel of its own choosing, but for the account and at the expense of the Indemnifying Party.

8.8 Further Assurances. In case at any time after the Closing any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, each of the Parties will take such further action (including the execution and delivery of such further instruments and documents) as any other Party may reasonably request, all at the sole cost and expense of the requesting Party.

8.9 Remedies. The Corporation acknowledges and agrees that the Purchasers would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of Article 1 of this Agreement are not performed by the Corporation in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached and money damages would not be an adequate remedy, so long as the conditions of Article 3 and the Corporation Conditions Annex have been fulfilled by the Purchasers or waived by the Corporation. Accordingly, if the conditions of Article 3 and the Corporations Conditions Annex have been fulfilled by the Purchaser or waived by the Corporation, in addition to the other remedies available to the Purchasers, the Corporation agrees that each Purchaser shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of Article 1 of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement, and the terms and provisions hereof (without the posting of bond or other security) in any action instituted in any court of the United States or any state thereof having jurisdiction over the Parties and the matter.

This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties, their permitted successors and assigns and nothing herein expressed or implied shall give or be construed to give any Person, other than the Parties and such permitted successors and assigns, any legal or equitable rights hereunder.

8.12 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance shall be held to be prohibited by, illegal or unenforceable under applicable law in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or illegality or unenforceability, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

8.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in counterparts (including by means of telecopied, facsimile or portable document format (pdf) signature pages), any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one Party, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.

8.19 Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this

Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

8.20 Consent to Jurisdiction. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN SECTION 8.9 HEREOF, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN ANY ACTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL PROPERLY (BUT NOT EXCLUSIVELY) LIE IN ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT LOCATED IN THE COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA.

THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THE MAILING BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, OF ANY PROCESS REQUIRED BY ANY SUCH COURT SHALL CONSTITUTE VALID AND LAWFUL SERVICE OF PROCESS AGAINST THEM, WITHOUT NECESSITY FOR SERVICE BY ANY OTHER MEANS PROVIDED BY STATUTE OR RULE OF COURT.

8.21 Waiver of Jury Trial. BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY OF THE PARTIES HERETO, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

So long as any Purchaser holds Equity Securities, the Corporation shall permit any representatives designated by any Purchaser, upon reasonable notice and at mutually agreeable times during normal business hours, to (a) visit and inspect any of the properties of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries, (b) examine the corporate and financial records of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries and make copies thereof or extracts therefrom and (c) discuss the affairs, finances, and accounts of any such entities with the directors, officers, key employees and independent accountants of the Corporation and Subsidiaries; provided, that, in each case, access to highly confidential proprietary information and facilities need not be provided.

The Corporation shall use reasonable efforts to avoid having assets that consist of “United States real property interests” within the meaning of Section 897 of the IRC at any time in such an amount that could cause the Corporation to become a “United States real property holding corporation” within the meaning of Section 897. In the event the Corporation has reason to believe that the Corporation could become a “United States real property holding corporation” as so defined, it shall promptly notify each Purchaser in writing of such fact.

Covenants Annex – Page 2

and Exchange Commission thereunder and shall comply with any applicable requirements of the Registration Rights Agreement.

Public Disclosures. The Corporation shall not, nor shall it permit any Subsidiary to, disclose the name or identity of any Purchaser (or any Affiliate thereof) as an investor in the Corporation in any press release or other public announcement or in any document or material filed with any governmental entity (other than tax filings in the ordinary course), without the prior written consent of such Purchaser, unless such disclosure is required by applicable law, governmental regulations, by order of a court of competent jurisdiction, in which case prior to making such disclosure the Corporation shall give written notice to such Purchaser describing in reasonable detail the proposed content of such disclosure and shall permit such Purchaser to review and comment upon the form and substance of such disclosure.

Indemnification of Directors; First Resort. The indemnification provisions set forth in the Bylaws of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries are hereby incorporated by reference for the benefit of any Person that serves as a director of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries at the direction of a Purchaser. The Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, shall be the indemnitor of first resort with respect to indemnifiable claims against a person with a claim for indemnification under the By-Laws of such entity (a “Bylaw Indemnitee”) who also has rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by the Purchasers and/or certain of their respective Affiliates (the “Affiliate Indemnitors”), such that the Corporation’s obligations to such Bylaw Indemnitees are primary and any obligation of the Affiliate Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by such Bylaw Indemnitee is secondary. The Corporation or its Subsidiary, as the case may be, shall advance the full amount of expenses incurred by such Bylaw Indemnitee to the extent provided for in the relevant bylaws and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted consistent with the relevant bylaws, without regard to any rights such Bylaw Indemnitees may have against the Affiliate Indemnitors. The Corporation hereby irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases, and will cause any of its Subsidiaries to waive, relinquish and release, the Affiliate Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Affiliate Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Corporation shall indemnify the Affiliate Indemnitors directly for any amounts that the Affiliate Indemnitors pay as indemnification or advancement on behalf of any such Bylaw Indemnitee and for which such Bylaw Indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification from the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with serving as a director or officer of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries. No advancement or payment by the Affiliate Indemnitors on behalf of any such Bylaw Indemnitee with respect to any claim for which such Bylaw Indemnitee has sought indemnification from the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries shall affect the obligations of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries hereunder and the Affiliate Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of such Bylaw Indemnitee against the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries.

Covenants Annex – Page 3

9.	Director and Officer Liability Insurance. The Corporation shall at all times maintain director and officer liability insurance in an amount, and upon the terms and conditions, that is customary in the industry.

10.

Director Fees & Expenses. The Corporation shall pay or reimburse the directors elected by the Purchasers in their capacity as holders of Series C Preferred for attending meetings of the stockholders, the Board and committees thereof in the same manner as the Corporation pays (or reimburses, as applicable) for fees and expenses incurred by other directors of the Corporation.

11.

Sufficiency of Conversion Stock. The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Conversion Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the conversion of the Series C Preferred, such number of shares of Conversion Stock issuable upon the conversion of all Series C Preferred that has been or may be, at the option of LM III and LM III-A, respectively, issued pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. All shares of Conversion Stock which are so issuable shall, when issued, be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, charges and encumbrances. The Corporation shall take all such actions as may be necessary to assure that all such shares of Conversion Stock may be so issued without violation of any applicable Law or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which shares of Conversion Stock may be listed (except for official notice of issuance which shall be immediately delivered by the Corporation upon each such issuance). The Corporation shall not take any action which would cause the number of authorized but unissued shares of Conversion Stock to be less than the number of such shares required to be reserved under the terms of the Series C Preferred as set forth in the Certificate of Designation for issuance upon conversion of the Series C Preferred.

12.

VCOC Rights. In the event, and to the extent that, it is reasonably determined that the rights afforded to the Purchasers pursuant to this Covenants Annex are not sufficient for purposes of the Department of Labor’s “plan assets” regulations, to the extent such plan assets regulations applies to the investment in the Series C Preferred, the Purchasers and the Corporation shall cooperate in good faith to agree upon mutually satisfactory management access and information rights which satisfy such regulations.

13.

Redemption of TARP Shares. The Corporation shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to receive all required Governmental Approvals in order for the Corporation to use a portion of the proceeds that it receives in exchange for the Series C Preferred to redeem all of the issued and outstanding shares of the TARP Series A Preferred Stock and the TARP Series B Preferred Stock issued to the Treasury under the TARP Capital Purchase Program instituted under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, as amended by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, within a commercially reasonable period of time after the consummation of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement.
