AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER, dated as of October 3, 2006 (this “Agreement”), is by and between Treaty Oak Bancorp, Inc., a Texas corporation (“Bancorp”), and Treaty Oak Holdings, Inc., a Texas corporation (the “Company” and, together with Bancorp, the “Parties”).

WHEREAS, this Agreement provides for the acquisition of the Company by Bancorp by virtue of the merger of the Company with and into Bancorp (the “Merger”);

WHEREAS, as a result of the Merger, all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value of $0.01 per share (the “Company Common Stock”), and the Company’s Preferred Stock, par value $10.00 per share (the “Company Preferred Stock”), shall be converted into and exchanged for shares of Bancorp’s Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), in the manner provided in this Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of Bancorp and the Board of Directors of the Company have each approved this Agreement and the proposed transactions contemplated hereby and have authorized the execution hereof, and the Board of Directors of Bancorp and the Board of Directors of the Company have adopted a resolution recommending that the plan of merger set forth in this Agreement be approved by the shareholders of Bancorp and the Company; and

WHEREAS, the parties intend, by executing this Agreement, to adopt a plan of reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I
THE MERGER

Section 1.01 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall be merged with and into Bancorp at the Effective Time (as defined below), in accordance with the provisions of Part Five of the Texas Business Corporation Act (the “TBCA”), and the separate corporate existence of the Company shall cease. Bancorp shall be the surviving corporation in the Merger (sometimes referred to as the “Surviving Corporation”) and shall continue its corporate existence under the Laws of the State of Texas.

Section 1.02 Effective Time. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, at the Closing the Company and Bancorp shall duly execute and file articles of merger (the “Articles of Merger”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Texas under Article 5.04 of the TBCA. The Merger will become effective when the Articles of Merger are filed in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Texas and a certificate of merger is issued by the office of the Secretary

of State of the State of Texas pursuant to Article 5.05 of the TBCA, or at such later date or time as Bancorp and the Company shall agree and specify in the Articles of Merger in accordance with Article 10.03 of the TBCA (the time the Merger becomes effective, the “Effective Time”).

Section 1.03 Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects provided by this Agreement and as set forth in the TBCA and other applicable Law.

Section 1.04 Effect on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of the Parties or any holder of Company Common Stock or Company Preferred Stock:

(a) Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares and Treasury Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive 0.8121 Shares, and each share of Company Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares or Treasury Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive 1.2034 Shares (all of such Shares issued to the holders of the Company Common Stock and the Company Preferred Stock are sometimes referred to herein as the “Merger Consideration”). At the Effective Time, all shares of Company Common Stock and Company Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Company Capital Stock”) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any shares of Company Capital Stock (a “Certificate”) shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration for each share of Company Capital Stock represented by the Certificate or, in the case of Dissenting Shares, the rights set forth in Section 1.05.

(b) Any shares of Company Capital Stock held directly or indirectly by the Company (collectively, the “Treasury Shares”) shall be cancelled and retired at the Effective Time, and no consideration shall be issued in exchange therefor.

(c) At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed, and no transfer of Company Capital Stock theretofore outstanding shall thereafter be made.

(d) If, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock shall have been increased, decreased, changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or securities as a result of a reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or otherwise, an appropriate and proportionate adjustment shall be made to the Merger Consideration.

Section 1.05 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, shares of Company Capital Stock that are issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time and that are held by a shareholder who has not voted such shares in favor of the Merger and who has otherwise taken all of the steps required by Article 5.12 of the TBCA to properly exercise and perfect such shareholder’s dissenter’s rights (any such shares being referred to herein as “Dissenting Shares”) shall be deemed to have ceased to represent any interest in the Surviving Corporation as of the Effective Time and shall be entitled to those rights and remedies

set forth in Articles 5.11, 5.12 and 5.13 of the TBCA; provided, however, that in the event that a shareholder of the Company fails to perfect, withdraws or otherwise loses any such right or remedy granted by the TBCA, the shares of Company Capital Stock held by such shareholder shall be converted into and represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration specified in this Agreement. The Company shall give Bancorp (a) prompt notice of any notice or demand for appraisal or payment for shares of Company Capital Stock received by the Company, and (b) the opportunity to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demands or notices. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Bancorp, make any payment with respect to, or settle, offer to settle or otherwise negotiate any such demands.

Section 1.06 Exchange Procedures.

(a) All Certificates shall be delivered to Bancorp at the Closing. Upon surrender of a Certificate to Bancorp for exchange, Bancorp will instruct its transfer agent to issue to such holder certificates evidencing the applicable Merger Consideration. The holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a certificate representing the number of Shares that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the terms hereof, and the Certificate so surrendered shall be cancelled. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 1.06, each Certificate shall be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender a certificate representing Shares as contemplated by this Section 1.06.

(b) If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if reasonably required by Bancorp, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as Bancorp may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against either of them with respect to such Certificate, Bancorp shall cause the transfer agent to shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration to which the holder thereof is entitled.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Party shall be liable to any former holder of Company Capital Stock for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws.

(d) Bancorp shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of shares of Company Capital Stock such amounts as Bancorp is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Bancorp, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the shares of Company Capital Stock in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Bancorp.

Section 1.07 Stock Options. At the Effective Time, each outstanding option to purchase shares of Company Common Stock (each, a “Company Option”) whether vested or unvested, shall be, in connection with the Merger, assumed by Bancorp. Each Company Option so assumed by Bancorp under this Agreement shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same

terms and conditions set forth in the respective option agreements immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (i) such Company Option shall be exercisable only for that number of whole shares of Bancorp Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by 0.8121, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Bancorp Common Stock, and (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Bancorp Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed Company Option shall be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock at which such Company Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by 0.8121, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. As of the date of this Agreement, there are outstanding Company Options to acquire 40,000 shares of Company Common Stock held by four (4) individuals.

ARTICLE II
THE CLOSING AND THE CLOSING DATE

Section 2.01 Closing; Closing Date. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, a closing (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Jenkens & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, A Professional Corporation, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇., ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ at 10:00 a.m. on a date designated by Bancorp, which shall be no later than the fifth (5th) Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver of the last to be satisfied or waived of the conditions set forth in Article VII, Article VIII and Article IX; provided, however, that if on such date the conditions set forth in Article VII, Article VIII and Article IX have not been satisfied or waived (subject to applicable Law) (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied or waived at the Closing, but in all cases subject to satisfaction thereof), the Closing shall take place on the second (2nd) Business Day immediately following the date on which such conditions have been so satisfied or waived.

and noted meeting of the shareholders of Bancorp to be held for the purpose of considering and voting on the approval of that matter.

Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” This Agreement shall not be interpreted or construed to require any Person to take any action, or fail to take any action, if to do so would violate any applicable Law.

Section 11.11 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas applicable to contracts made and wholly-performed within such state, without regard to any applicable conflicts of law principles.

Each of the Parties submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any such court in any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of, or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and hereby irrevocably waives the benefit of jurisdiction derived from present or future domicile or otherwise in such action or proceeding. Each Party irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of

any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

Section 11.12 Counterparts.
