provided for in the consolidated statement of financial condition of
the Company as of June 30, 1995 (including related notes) and (y) of
liabilities incurred since such date in the ordinary course of

whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise, which would have a
Material Adverse Effect.
(k) MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE. Except as Previously Disclosed, since
June 30, 1995, no events or developments involving the Company or the Bank
have occurred which, individually or in the aggregate, (i) have had, or

the Company and the Bank are in compliance with all Environmental

not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.
Neither the Company nor the Bank has received any communication
alleging that the Company or any Company Subsidiary is not in such
compliance and, to the best knowledge of the Company, there are no
present circumstances that would prevent or interfere with the
continuation of such compliance.
(ii) To the best of the knowledge of the Company and the Bank,
none of the properties owned, leased or operated by the Company or the
Bank has been or is in violation of or liable under any Environmental
Law, except for any such violations or liabilities which would not
individually or in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect.
(iii) To the best of the knowledge of the Company and the
Bank, there are no past or present actions, activities, circumstances,
conditions, events or incidents that could reasonably form the basis
of any Environmental Claim or other claim or action or governmental
investigation that could result in the imposition of any liability
arising under any Environmental Law against the Company or the Bank or
against any Person whose liability for any Environmental Claim the
Company or the Bank has or may have retained or assumed either
contractually or by operation of law, except such as would not have a
Material Adverse Effect.
(m) TAX MATTERS. The Company and the Bank have timely filed all Tax
Returns required by applicable law to be filed by them (including, without
limitation, estimated tax returns, income tax returns, information returns
and withholding and employment tax returns) and have paid, or where payment
is not required to have been made, have set up an adequate reserve or
accrual for the payment of, all Taxes required to be paid in respect of the
periods covered by such Tax Returns, except in all cases where the failure
to do so does not or will not have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the
date hereof, there is no audit examination, assessed deficiency, deficiency
litigation or refund litigation with respect to any Taxes of the Company or
the Bank. All Taxes due with respect to completed and settled examinations
or concluded litigation relating to the Company have been paid in full or

consolidated statement of financial condition in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. The Company has not executed an extension
or waiver of any statute of limitations on the assessment or collection of
any material tax due that is currently in effect. Nothing has occurred,
whether by action or by failure to act, which would subject to recapture
the bad debt reserves established by the Bank for federal income tax
purposes under Section 593 of the Code.
(n) ERISA. The Company is in compliance in all material respects
with all presently applicable provisions of ERISA; no "reportable event"
(as defined in ERISA) has occurred with respect to any "pension plan" (as
defined in ERISA) for which the Company would have any material liability;
the Company has not incurred and does not expect to incur liability under
(i) Title IV of ERISA with respect to termination of, or withdrawal from,
any "pension plan" or (ii) Sections 412 (whether or not waived) or 4971 of
the Code; and each "pension plan" for which the Company would have any
liability that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code
is so qualified in all material respects and nothing has occurred, whether
by action or by failure to act, which would cause the loss of such
qualification.
(o) LITIGATION. There are no actions, suits, investigations or legal
proceedings pending against, or to the knowledge of the Company threatened
against, or affecting the Company or the Bank or their respective
properties before any court or governmental body or agency which would
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or which in any
manner challenge the legality, validity or enforceability of this
Agreement, any of the Related Agreements or any of the Securities, or which
would reasonably be expected to materially impair the ability or obligation
of the Company or the Bank to perform fully on a timely basis their
respective obligations under this Agreement, any Related Agreement to which
it will become a party or any of the Securities.
(p) COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Each of the Company and the Bank has all
permits, licenses, certificates of authority, orders and approvals of, and
has made all filings, applications and registrations with, federal, State,
local and foreign governmental or regulatory bodies that are necessary in
order to permit it to carry on its business as it is presently being
conducted and the absence of which could have a Material Adverse Effect;
all such permits, licenses, certificates of authority, orders and approvals
are in full force and effect; and to the best knowledge of the Company, no
suspension or cancellation of any of the same is threatened.
(q) NO DEFAULT OR VIOLATION. Neither the Company nor the Bank
currently is in violation of its Certificate of Incorporation and Charter,
respectively, its Bylaws, or of any applicable federal, state or local law
or ordinance or any order, rule or regulation of any federal, state, local
or other governmental agency or body (including, without limitation, all
banking, securities, safety, health, environmental, zoning, anti-
discrimination, antitrust, and wage and hour laws, ordinances, orders,
rules and regulations), or in default with respect to any order, writ,
injunction or decree of any court, or in default under any order, license,
regulation or demand of any governmental agency, any of which violations or
defaults could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be deemed (i)
to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) materially adversely impair the
ability of the Company or the Bank to perform on a timely basis any
obligation which it has under this Agreement, any Related Agreement to
which it will become a party or any of the Securities and neither the
Company nor the Bank has received any notice or communication from any
federal, state or local governmental authority asserting that the Company
or the Bank is in violation of any of the foregoing which could reasonably
be deemed to have any effect set forth in clauses (i) or (ii) above.
Except for the Capital Directive issued by the OTS to the Bank as of June
30, 1995 and as Previously Disclosed, neither the Company nor the Bank is
subject to any regulatory or supervisory cease and desist order, agreement,
written directive, memorandum of understanding or written commitment, and
none of them has received any written communication requesting that they
enter into any of the foregoing.
(r) CERTAIN FEES. Except for fees and expenses payable by the
Company to the Placement Agent, as Previously Disclosed, no fees or
commissions will be payable by the Company or the Bank to brokers, finders,
investment bankers or banks pursuant to any agreement entered into by the
Company or the Bank with respect to the offer and sale of the Units or any
of the other transactions contemplated hereby.
(s) USURY LAWS. The Senior Notes will not be subject to a defense
that the interest rate is in violation of the usury laws of the State of
California, as currently in effect. The Company hereby waives, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, its right to assert the
violation of any such usury law and the usury law of any other applicable
jurisdiction as a defense to the fulfillment of any of its obligations
under the Senior Notes and covenants and agrees to take all reasonable
actions as may be necessary in the future to make such waiver effective.

correct listing of the following assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries
as of August 31, 1995: (i) all non-performing loans, securities or other
assets (i.e., all assets on which the Company or the Bank has ceased
recognizing interest under generally accepted accounting principles or as

as of such date), (ii) all loans, securities or other assets as to which
any payments of principal or interest are past due 60 or more days, (iii)
all loans, securities or other assets not included in the foregoing which
have been classified special mention, substandard, doubtful or loss by
management of the Company or the Bank or regulatory examiners, and (iv)
each parcel of Real Estate Owned (excepting such parcels as may have been
disposed of in the ordinary course of business subsequent to such date),
including an identification of the amount of reserves which have been

hereof the Company, on an unconsolidated basis, does not have any
outstanding Debt (as defined in Section 3 of the Senior Notes), and except

outstanding Debt on the Closing Date.
(v) PRIVATE OFFERING. Neither the Company nor, assuming the accuracy
of such representations of the Placement Agent as may be requested by the
Company in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, any Person
acting on its behalf, has taken or will take any action which might subject
the offering, issuance or sale of the Units to the registration
requirements of the Securities Act or comparable provisions of any
applicable State securities laws.
(w) DISCLOSURE. None of the representations and warranties of the
Company or any of the information or documents which have been Previously
Disclosed to a Purchaser pursuant hereto are false or misleading in any
material respect or contain any untrue statement of a material fact, or
omit to state any material fact required to be stated or necessary to make
any such information or document, at the time and in light of the
circumstances, not misleading. Copies of all documents referred to in this
Section 3.1 are true, correct and complete copies thereof and include all
amendments, supplements and modifications thereto and all waivers
thereunder.
SECTION 3.2 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE
PURCHASERS.
(a) INVESTMENT INTENT. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly and
as to itself only, represents and warrants to, and covenants and agrees
with, the Company that the Securities to be acquired by it hereunder are
being acquired for its own account for investment and with no intention of
distributing or reselling such Securities or any part thereof or interest
therein in any transaction which would be in violation of the securities
laws of the United States of America or any State, without prejudice,
however, to a Purchaser's right, subject to the provisions of this
Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, at all times to sell or
otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Securities under an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act and other applicable State
securities laws or under an exemption from such registration, and subject,
nevertheless, to the disposition of a Purchaser's property being at all
times within its control. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly and as
to itself only, further represents and warrants to the Company that such
Purchaser has no present agreement, understanding, plan or intent to
transfer the Units (including the Warrants) to be purchased by it to any
transferee.
(b) TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS.
(i) If a Purchaser should decide to dispose of any of the
Securities, such Purchaser understands and agrees that it may do so
only pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act or as set forth below: (i) to the Company, (ii) to any
Person reasonably believed by such Purchaser to be a "qualified
institutional buyer" (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities
Act) in compliance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act, (iii)
pursuant to an exemption from registration set forth in Rule 144 under
the Securities Act, (iv) to any Person who is reasonably believed by
such Purchaser to be an "accredited investor" (as defined in Rule
501(a) under the Securities Act) and that, prior to such transfer,
furnishes to the Purchaser and the Company a signed letter confirming
its status as an accredited investor and agreeing to the restrictions
on transfer of the Securities set forth in this Agreement or (v) to
any Affiliate of such Purchaser pursuant to an applicable exemption
under the Securities Act. In connection with any transfer of any
Securities other than (i) any transfer pursuant to an effective
registration statement or (ii) any transfer by a qualified
institutional buyer (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act)
pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, the Company may require that the
transferor of any such Securities provide to the Company an opinion of
counsel experienced in the area of United States securities laws
selected by the transferor (which may include in-house counsel of a
transferor), which counsel shall be and the form and substance of
which opinion shall be, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the
effect that such transfer does not require registration of such
Securities under the Securities Act or any State securities laws. In
connection with any transfer pursuant to clause (ii) above, the
Company may request reasonable certification as to the status of the
transferor's transferee as a qualified institutional buyer. Each
Purchaser agrees to the imprinting, so long as appropriate, (i) on the
Senior Notes of the first legend set forth on the form of Senior Note
included as Exhibit B hereto, (ii) on the Warrants of the first legend
set forth on the form of Warrant included as Exhibit D hereto and
(iii) on certificates representing the Series A Preferred Stock and
the Common Stock issuable (x) upon exercise of the Warrants or (y)
pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Senior Notes and/or Section 2(b) of
the Certificate of Designations, a legend substantially similar to the
foregoing legends. The legends set forth above may be removed if and
when the applicable Securities are disposed of pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act or in the
opinion of counsel to the Company experienced in the area of United
States securities laws such legend is no longer required under
applicable requirements of the Securities Act. The Senior Notes,
Warrants and certificates evidencing the Series A Preferred Stock and
Common Stock referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above also
shall bear any other legends required by applicable federal or state
securities laws, which legends may be removed when, in the opinion of
counsel to the Company experienced in the applicable securities laws,
the same are no longer required under the applicable requirements of
such securities laws. The Company agrees that it will provide each
Purchaser, upon request, with a substitute document evidencing the
Securities not bearing such legend at such time as such legend is no
longer applicable.
(ii) Each Purchaser understands and agrees that it may transfer
the Senior Note, shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Warrant which
comprise a Unit (including any Fractional Unit) only together as such
until the earlier of (x) the date the Company files with the
Commission its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 1996 and (y) March 30, 1997. Each Purchaser agrees to the
imprinting, so long as appropriate, of the second legend set forth on
the form of Senior Notes and the form of Warrant included as Exhibit B
and Exhibit D hereto, respectively, on the Senior Notes, certificates
evidencing Series A Preferred Stock and Warrants which are included in
the Units. Such legends may be removed following the expiration of
the restrictions on transfer contained in paragraph (b)(ii) and (iii)
of this Section 3.2, and the Company agrees that it will provide each
Purchaser, upon request, with a substitute document evidencing the
Senior Notes, Series A Preferred Stock and Warrants comprising the
Units not bearing such legend at such time as such legend is no longer
applicable.
(iii) Each Purchaser understands and agrees that until the
Warrants become exercisable in accordance with their terms, it will
give the Company not less than 10 Business Days' notice of any
proposed transfer of Units and/or Securities, accompanied by
information related to such transfer which is reasonably sufficient to
enable the Company to make the determinations referred to herein, so
that the Company may determine in its reasonable judgment whether (i)
such proposed transfer involves a person who is a "5% shareholder" of
the Company, as that term is defined in Section 382(k)(7) of the Code,
or who would become a 5% shareholder of the Company as a result of
such proposed transfer, and, if so, (ii) whether such proposed
transfer could reasonably be expected to result in an "ownership
change" under Section 382 of the Code and the regulations promulgated
thereunder (taking into account both the proposed transfer and any
other transactions of which the Company is aware) and, if so, (iii)
whether such "ownership change" would result in a material loss of tax
benefits to the Company. In the event the Company makes such
determinations and provides the Purchaser with written notice of the
same within 10 Business Days of its receipt of the above-referenced
notice from the Purchaser, or in the event the Company makes a
reasonable written request to such Purchaser for further information
concerning such proposed transfer within the same 10-Business Day
period and makes the foregoing determinations within 10 Business Days
after receipt of such further information, the Purchaser agrees not to
effect any such transfer as the Company may request in order to avoid
such an "ownership change."
(c) STOP TRANSFER INSTRUCTIONS. Each Purchaser agrees that the
Company shall be entitled to make a notation on its records and give
instructions to any transfer agent of the Securities in order to implement
the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 3.2(b) of this Agreement.
(d) ACCREDITED INVESTOR. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly
and as to itself only, represents and warrants to, and covenants and agrees
with, the Company that (i) at the time it was offered the Units, it was,
(ii) at the date hereof, it is, and (iii) at the Closing, it will be, an
"accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act,
and has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and
financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of
the prospective investment in the Securities, and has so evaluated the
merits and risks of such investment, is able to bear the economic risk of
such investment and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss
of such investment.
(e) DUE EXECUTION. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly and as
to itself only, represents and warrants to the Company that this Agreement
has been, and each Related Agreement to which it will become a party will
be, duly executed and delivered by it or on its behalf and constitutes, or
will constitute, as applicable, a valid and binding obligation of such
Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms,
except that (i) rights to indemnity and contribution under the Registration
Rights Agreement may be limited by applicable law, (ii) enforceability may
be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium and similar laws affecting
creditors' rights generally and (iii) rights of acceleration and the
availability of equitable remedies may be limited by equitable principles
of general applicability.
(f) NO CONFLICT. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly and as to
itself only, represents and warrants to the Company that (i) the execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement and each of the Related
Agreements to which it will become a party do not and will not, as
applicable, conflict with or constitute a breach or a default under (i) its
articles of incorporation, charter or other organizational document or
bylaws, as applicable, (ii) any material obligation, agreement, indenture,
bond, debenture, note, instrument or any other evidence of indebtedness to
which it is a party or its assets are subject or (iii) subject to Section
3.2(i) hereof, any law, ordinance, order, license, rule or other regulation
or demand of any court or governmental agency, arbitration panel or
authority applicable to it.
(g) ACCESS TO INFORMATION. Each Purchaser acknowledges receipt of
the Confidential Memorandum and further acknowledges that prior to the date
hereof and, subject to the Company's compliance with its obligations
pursuant to Section 5.3(a) hereof, on and subsequent to the date hereof, it
has been afforded (i) the opportunity to ask such questions as it has
deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from, representatives of the
Company concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Units
and the merits and risks of investing in the Units and (ii) access to
information about the Company and the Company's financial condition,
results of operations, business, properties, management and prospects
sufficient to enable it to evaluate its investment in the Units.
(h) RELIANCE. Each Purchaser also understands and acknowledges that
(i) the Units are being offered and sold without registration under the
Securities Act in a private placement that is exempt from the registration
provisions of the Securities Act and (ii) such exemption depends in part
on, and that the Company, its counsel and the Private Placement Agent will
rely upon, the accuracy and truthfulness of the foregoing representations
and warranties of such Purchaser, and such Purchaser hereby consents to
such reliance.
(i) GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORIZATION. Except for (i) compliance with
applicable federal and State securities laws in connection with the
performance by a Purchaser of its obligations under the Registration Rights
Agreement, (ii) any required compliance by a Purchaser with applicable
federal and State securities laws, HSR and/or federal banking laws and
regulations in connection with (x) the issuance of shares of Common Stock
upon exercise of the Warrants in accordance with their terms or (y) any
issuance of Common Stock pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Senior Notes or
Section 2(b) of the Certificate of Designations and (iii) such written
confirmations from the OTS as may be reasonably determined by a Purchaser
to be necessary to ensure that upon consummation of the transactions
contemplated by Section 2.1 hereof it will not be deemed to be in control
of the Company or subject to a rebuttable presumption of control of the
Company under the HOLA and 12 C.F.R. Part 574, each Purchaser, severally
and not jointly and as to itself only, represents and warrants to the
Company that no consent, approval, order or other authorization of any
governmental, administrative or regulatory body or agency is legally
required by or on behalf of the Purchaser in connection with the execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement and each Related Agreement to
which it will become a party.
(j) OWNERSHIP OF COMPANY STOCK.
(i) Each Purchaser who is an individual, severally and not
jointly and as to itself only, represents and warrants to the Company
that, other than by virtue of this Agreement and in the case of
Management as Previously Disclosed, (A) he does not own any Capital
Stock or Stock Equivalents of the Company, and that to his knowledge

after due inquiry any of such Purchaser's Related Persons or any

(including without limitation the Federal Trade Commission and the

Department of Justice pursuant to the HSR) in connection with (i) the
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement or any Related
Agreement by the Company, the Bank or any Purchaser or (ii) the Company's
issuance of Common Stock upon exercise of Warrants or pursuant to Section

Designations, such party shall take all actions necessary to obtain any
such approval, consent or non-objection or file such notice or other filing
as promptly as practicable, and the other parties hereto agree to cooperate
with such party in obtaining or filing the same. Any party that is
required to file any notice, application or other document pursuant to the
preceding sentence shall provide copies thereof (excluding any confidential

unduly interfere with normal operations, and provided further that in the
event that any of the foregoing are in the control of any third party, the
Company shall use its best efforts to cause such third party to provide
access to such materials to each Purchaser who shall request the same. In
the event that the Company is prohibited by law from providing any of the
access referred to in the preceding sentence to a Purchaser, it shall use
its best efforts to obtain promptly waivers thereof so as to permit such

be reasonably related to the transactions contemplated hereby and not
unduly interfere with normal operations.
(b) All information furnished to a Purchaser by the Company
previously in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement or pursuant hereto shall be treated as the sole property of the
Company and each Purchaser covenants, severally and not jointly and as to
itself only, that it shall use its best efforts to keep confidential all
such information and shall not directly or indirectly use such information
for any competitive or other commercial purposes. The obligation to keep
such information confidential shall continue for five years from the date
hereof but shall not apply to (i) any information which (x) a Purchaser can
establish by convincing evidence was already in its possession prior to the
disclosure thereof by the Company; (y) was then generally known to the
public; or (z) became known to the public through no fault of a Purchaser;
or (ii) disclosures pursuant to a legal requirement or in accordance with
an order of a court of competent jurisdiction, provided that a Purchaser
shall use its best efforts to give the Company at least ten Business Days
prior notice thereof and shall limit such disclosure to the minimum amount
required by such legal requirement or court order.
SECTION 5.4 PRESS RELEASES. The Company and each Purchaser who
will be a Material Securityholder upon consummation of the transactions
specified in Section 2.1 hereof shall agree with each other as to the form
and substance of any press release related to this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby, and consult with each other as to the
form and substance of other public disclosures which may relate to the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, provided, however, that
nothing contained herein shall prohibit any party, following notification
to such other parties, from making any disclosure which it determines in
good faith is required by law or regulation. For purposes of the
foregoing, the Company may treat a law firm designated from time to time by
the Purchasers who are Material Securityholders as the authorized
representative of each of the Purchasers.
SECTION 5.5 NO SOLICITATION. Prior to the Closing, neither the
Company nor the Bank, nor any of the directors, officers, employees,
representatives or agents of the Company or other persons controlled by the
Company, shall solicit or encourage inquiries or proposals with respect to,

Company or the Bank, or any business combination with the Company or the
Bank, other than as contemplated by this Agreement. The Company will

inquiries or proposals are received by, or such information is requested
from, or any such negotiations or discussions are sought to be initiated
with, the Company or the Bank.

semi-annual interest payments which become due on the Senior Notes
shall be used to establish and maintain the Interest Reserve Account
required by Section 1(b) of the Senior Notes and the Security
Agreement.
SECTION 5.7 CURRENT INFORMATION.

their becoming available, (i) each communication sent by the Company to its
shareholders generally, (ii) each report filed by the Company with the

Securities Act, provided that the Company shall not be required to furnish
any such Purchaser any of the same to the extent that it already has done
so pursuant to Section 4(h)(iv) of the Senior Notes or the Registration
Rights Agreement.
SECTION 5.8 LISTING OF ADDITIONAL SHARES OF COMMON STOCK. The
Company shall take all action which is necessary to ensure that Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and Common Stock which may be
issued pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Senior Notes or Section 2(b) of the
Certificate of Designations will be eligible upon issuance for quotation on
the Nasdaq Stock Market's National Market or any exchange on which the
Common Stock is then traded.
SECTION 5.9 RIGHTS OF FIRST REFUSAL. (a) Subject to subsection
(g), for so long as a Purchaser is a holder of a Unit (an "Eligible
Purchaser"), the Company agrees not to issue any of its Capital Securities
or to permit the Bank to issue any of its Capital Securities (such Capital
Securities of the Company and the Bank hereinafter deemed to be jointly
covered by the term "Capital Securities") to any Person or Persons, other
than in the case of Capital Securities of the Bank to the Company (a "Third
Party Purchaser"), without first offering or causing the Bank to offer, as
applicable, to such Eligible Purchaser the opportunity to purchase all or
part of such Capital Securities being issued at the same purchase price and
on the same terms as are proposed to be offered to a Third Party Purchaser.
For this purpose, the Company shall deliver a written notice, or cause the
Bank to deliver a written notice, as applicable (in each case a "Notice"),
to each Eligible Purchaser of any proposed issuance of Capital Securities
which shall contain all of the material terms of the proposed issuance,
including, without limitation, the purchase price and total amount of
Capital Securities proposed to be issued, which terms, including without
limitation the purchase price and any conversion price or rate of such
Capital Securities, may to the extent necessary be expressed in the form of
good faith estimates by the Board of Directors of the Company.
(b) Upon receipt of the Notice, each Eligible Purchaser will have the
right to subscribe for all or part of the Capital Securities on the same
terms set forth in the Notice, by delivery of written notice to the Company
or the Bank, as applicable ("Acceptance Notice"), in accordance with the
instructions set forth in the Notice, within 20 days from the date of its
receipt of the Notice (the "Offer Period"). The Acceptance Notice shall
specify the amount (not exceeding all) of the Capital Securities being
offered with respect to which the Eligible Purchaser wishes to exercise its
subscription rights.
(c) An Acceptance Notice, once given by an Eligible Purchaser in
accordance with subsection (b), shall become irrevocable at the end of the
Offer Period unless it is withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Offer
Period (any such Acceptance Notice which so becomes irrevocable being
called an "Irrevocable Acceptance" and the Eligible Purchaser giving such
notice being an "Accepting Eligible Purchaser").
(d) (i) In the event that any Eligible Purchaser fails to have
delivered an Irrevocable Acceptance with respect to any Notice on or prior
to the last day of the Offer Period with respect to such Notice, such
Eligible Purchaser will have no further right to subscribe for the Capital
Securities proposed to be issued in such Notice during a Free Sale Period
commencing on the date immediately following the end of the Offer Period
with respect to such Notice.
(ii) In the event that no Eligible Purchasers shall have
delivered an Irrevocable Acceptance with respect to a Notice on or
prior to the last day of the Offer Period with respect to such Notice,
the Company or the Bank, as applicable, will be entitled to a Free
Sale Period with respect to the Capital Securities proposed to be
issued in such Notice commencing on the date immediately following the
end of the Offer Period with respect to such notice.
(iii) In the event that Accepting Eligible Purchasers deliver
Irrevocable Acceptances relating to an amount of Capital Securities in
the aggregate in excess of the amount of Capital Securities proposed
to be issued pursuant to the Notice, the amount of Capital Securities
which each Accepting Eligible Purchaser shall be obligated to purchase
will be such Eligible Purchaser's Purchaser Percentage of the Capital
Securities proposed to be issued pursuant to such Notice (provided
that, if one or more Accepting Eligible Purchasers deliver Irrevocable
Acceptances to subscribe for less than such Eligible Purchaser's
Purchaser Percentage, then the Capital Securities that would have been
allocated to such Eligible Purchaser or Purchasers pursuant to this
subsection (d)(iii) shall be allocated to the other Accepting Eligible
Purchasers in accordance with their respective Purchaser's
Percentages, except that no Accepting Eligible Purchaser shall be
required to purchase any Capital Securities in an amount greater than
the amount elected to be subscribed for by such Accepting Eligible
Purchaser pursuant to its Irrevocable Acceptance).
(iv) In the event that Accepting Eligible Purchasers exercise
their option to purchase, pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this
Section 5.9, in the aggregate, all (or, if the Company or the Bank, as
applicable, shall so elect, more than 90%) of the Capital Securities
proposed to be issued in the Notice, all such Eligible Purchasers and
the Company or the Bank, as applicable, shall complete the purchase of
the Capital Securities on the terms set forth in the Notice within 30
days of the expiration of the Offer Period, or within such longer
period (not to exceed six months from the date of the Accepting
Eligible Purchaser's Irrevocable Acceptance) as may be required for
such Accepting Eligible Purchaser to obtain any applicable regulatory
approvals that such Accepting Eligible Purchaser is making a good
faith effort to obtain. If an Accepting Eligible Purchaser does not
complete the purchase of Capital Securities as set forth above, other
than as a result of the negligence, bad faith or wilful misconduct of
the Company or the Bank or any action or omission made by the Company
or the Bank that would prevent such an Accepting Eligible Purchaser
from completing its purchase, the Company or the Bank, as applicable,
will be entitled to a Free Sale Period commencing on the 31st day
following the expiration of the Offer Period, subject to extension as
set forth in the immediately preceding sentence.
(v) Other than as set forth in subsection (vi) below (and
subject to subsection (iv) above), in the event that Accepting
Eligible Purchasers shall have delivered Irrevocable Acceptances for
all or less than all of the Capital Securities set forth in the
Notice, each Accepting Eligible Purchaser shall purchase, within the
applicable period set forth in subsection (iv) above or subsection
(vi) below, as the case may be, the amount of Capital Securities set
forth in its Irrevocable Acceptance.
(vi) In the event that Accepting Eligible Purchasers elect to
subscribe for, in the aggregate, less than all (or if the Company or
the Bank, as applicable, shall so elect 90%) of the Capital Securities
proposed to be offered pursuant to the Notice, the Company or the
Bank, as applicable, shall have a Free Sale Period commencing on the
date immediately following the end of the Offer Period with respect to
the Capital Securities offered pursuant to such Notice as to which
Accepting Eligible Purchasers do not elect to subscribe and the
Company agrees to sell, and to cause the Bank to sell, as applicable,
and the Accepting Eligible Purchasers shall be obligated to purchase,
the Capital Securities for which they subscribed substantially
simultaneously (or, with respect to any Accepting Eligible Purchaser,
within such longer period (not to exceed four months from the relevant
purchase by the Third Party Purchaser) as may be required for such
Accepting Eligible Purchaser to obtain any applicable regulatory
approvals that such Accepting Eligible Purchaser is making a good
faith effort to obtain) with the purchase by the Third Party Purchaser
of the balance of the Capital Securities proposed to be offered
pursuant to such Notice, it being understood that if such balance of
Capital Securities is not so purchased on the terms set forth in the
Notice, no Eligible Purchaser will be required or entitled to purchase
such Capital Securities as to which its Irrevocable Acceptance
applied.
(e) If at any time during a Free Sale Period the terms of a proposed
issuance shall have changed in any material respect from the terms set
forth in the Notice, the Company or the Bank, as applicable, shall give
notice (the "Alteration Notice") to the Eligible Purchasers describing the
changes in terms. Upon receipt of any Alteration Notice, each Eligible
Purchaser will have the right to subscribe for all or part of the Capital
Securities on the terms set forth in the Alteration Notice, by delivery of
an Acceptance Notice to the Company or the Bank, as applicable, in
accordance with the instructions set forth in the Alteration Notice, within
20 days from the date of receipt of the Alteration Notice (the "Altered
Offer Period"), stating the amount (not exceeding all) of Capital
Securities proposed to be offered as to which such Eligible Purchaser
wishes to exercise its right to subscribe. In any such case, the
procedures set forth in subsection (d), to the extent applicable, shall be
followed.
(f) The failure of an Eligible Purchaser to respond to any particular
Notice or Alteration Notice will not constitute a waiver of such Eligible
Purchaser's rights with respect to any proposed issuance of Capital
Securities pursuant to a subsequent Notice or Alteration Notice.
(g) Subsections (a)-(f) shall not apply to the issuance of Capital
Securities pursuant to or in connection with (i) the purchase and sale of
the Securities contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) a reorganization,
merger or consolidation of the Company or the Bank or a sale, disposition
or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company
or the Bank to any Person or any Person to the Company or the Bank pursuant
to one transaction or series of related transactions, (iii) any conversion
or exchange of any Capital Securities (including without limitation the
Warrants) in accordance with the terms of such securities or of the
instruments relating to or governing the issuance of such Capital
Securities, (iv) any employee benefit plans, other than the Employee Stock
Ownership Plan or any similar plan of the Company, (v) any stock dividends,
or pro rata (as to any class) split-ups, combinations or exchanges of or
similar transactions involving Capital Securities, (vi) the issuance of
Common Stock pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Senior Notes or Section 2(b)
of the Certificate of Designations, (vii) any bona fide public offering of
Capital Securities which is registered under the Securities Act and
underwritten by an underwriting firm or firms of national reputation or
(viii) any issuance of Common Stock, Options (as defined in the Warrants)
or Convertible Securities (as defined in the Warrants) which would result
in an adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrants to the number
of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants or the
exercise price of a share of Common Stock which may be acquired upon
exercise thereof and (ix) any issuance of Common Stock, Options (as so
defined) or Convertible Securities (as so defined) to the holders of Common
Stock in their capacities as such which would not result in an adjustment
in accordance with the terms of the Warrants to the number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants or the exercise price
of a share of Common Stock which may be acquired upon exercise thereof,
provided that the Company concurrently therewith grants to each Eligible
Purchaser as of the record date for such transaction the rights, warrants
or options to which each Eligible Purchaser would have been entitled if, on
the record date used to determine the stockholders entitled to the rights,
warrants or options being granted by the Company, the Eligible Purchaser
was the holder of record of the number of whole shares of Common Stock then
issuable upon exercise of the Warrants held by such Eligible Purchaser.
(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Section 5.9, except as permitted under subsection (g) above, neither
Eligible Purchasers nor any Third Party Purchaser will be permitted to
purchase an amount of Capital Securities of the Bank which, when combined
with any other Capital Securities of the Bank owned by such Purchasers,
would result in the Company and the Bank not being permitted to file a
consolidated federal income tax return in the opinion of independent public
accountants or counsel for the Company, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to each Accepting Eligible Purchaser.
(i) For the purposes of this Section 5.9,
"Purchaser Percentage" means, at any time of determination
with respect to an Eligible Purchaser, the aggregate number of
shares of Common Stock (including shares of Common Stock which
may be acquired upon exercise of outstanding Warrants, whether or
not then exercisable) then held by such Eligible Purchaser
divided by the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock
(including shares of Common Stock which may be acquired upon
exercise of outstanding Warrants, whether or not then
exercisable) outstanding at such time, expressed as a percentage,
with fractional percentages of .5 or more and less than .5
rounded up and down, respectively.
"Free Sale Period" means a period of three months (or such
longer period of time, not in excess of one year, required to
obtain any regulatory approvals, consents or other actions
necessary to consummate a sale to a Third Party Purchaser which
has agreed in writing (subject to such regulatory approvals,
consents or actions and other reasonable closing conditions) to
purchase Capital Securities on or prior to the end of such three-
month period), during which the Company or the Bank, as
applicable, shall be permitted to issue the Capital Securities
which were proposed to be issued pursuant to a Notice or
Alteration Notice to a Third Party Purchaser on terms no more
favorable to the Third Party Purchaser than those set forth in
such Notice or Alteration Notice, as the case may be.
SECTION 5.10 RULE 144 AND RULE 144A REPORTING.
With a view to making available to holders of Securities the benefits
of certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may permit the
sale of the Securities to the public without registration, the Company
agrees at all times to:
(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms
are understood and defined in Rules 144 and 144A under the Securities
Act (or any successors thereto); and
(b) use its best efforts to file with the Commission in a timely
manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under
the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.
SECTION 5.11 PURCHASES OF SECURITIES.
The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to,
purchase any:
(i) Senior Notes except in accordance with Section 4(m) of the
Senior Notes;
(ii) Series A Preferred Stock except pursuant to a repurchase
offer made to each holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock pro
rata in accordance with the aggregate number of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock held by such holder; and
(iii) Warrants except pursuant to a repurchase offer made to
each holder of a Warrant pro rata in accordance with the aggregate
number of shares of Common Stock which may be acquired upon exercise
of the Warrants held by such holder.
SECTION 5.12 STOCK OPTIONS. Between the date hereof and the
Closing, the Company shall use its best efforts to cancel all unexercised
stock options issued to Management pursuant to the Stock Option Plan prior
to the Closing and to grant to members of Management substitute options
under the Stock Option Plan to purchase an aggregate of 360,000 shares of
Common Stock, which options shall (i) have a per share exercise price equal
to the greater of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the
date of grant, as determined pursuant to the Stock Option Plan, and $3.875,
(ii) become vested and exercisable in three equal annual installments
commencing on the first anniversary of the date of grant and (iii)
terminate seriatim in three equal annual installments commencing on the
fifth anniversary of the date of grant. The Purchasers acknowledge that an
aggregate of an additional 240,000 shares of Common Stock may be made
subject to options to be granted to other employees of the Company or the
Bank in connection with a program to reduce the amounts of annual cash
compensation payable by the Company and the Bank.
SECTION 5.13 EXCHANGE OF SECURITIES. The Company will, at its
expense, promptly upon surrender of (i) any Senior Note, (ii) any
certificate evidencing Series A Preferred Stock and (iii) any Warrant, at
the office of the Company referred to in, or designated pursuant to,
Section 6.4, respectively execute and deliver to the Purchaser (i) a new
Senior Note or Senior Notes in aggregate principal amounts specified by the
Purchaser (subject to the minimum denomination of the Senior Notes) for an
aggregate principal amount equal to the Senior Note or Senior Notes
surrendered, (ii) a new certificate or certificates in denominations
specified by the Purchaser for an aggregate number of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock equal to the number of shares of such stock represented by
the certificate or certificates surrendered and (iii) a new Warrant or
Warrants covering a number of shares of Common Stock specified by the
Purchaser for an aggregate number of shares of Common Stock equal to the
shares of Common Stock covered by the Warrant or Warrants surrendered.
SECTION 5.14 ACQUISITION OF COMMON STOCK. Until the Warrants become
exercisable in accordance with their terms, each Purchaser who is a
Material Securityholder agrees to give the Company not less than 10
Business Days' notice of any proposed purchase or other acquisition of
"stock" of the Company (as defined under Section 382 of the Code and the
regulations thereunder), including any acquisition of "stock" pursuant to
Section 5.9 hereof but excluding shares of Common Stock which may be
acquired pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Senior Notes and/or Section 2(b)
of the Certificate of Designations, accompanied by information related to
such proposed transaction which is reasonably sufficient to enable the
Company to make the determinations referred to herein, so that the Company
may determine in its reasonable judgment whether such purchase or other
acquisition (i) would result in such Material Securityholder becoming a "5%
shareholder" of the Company, as that term is defined in Section 382(k)(7)
of the Code and, if so, (ii) whether such purchase or other acquisition
could reasonably be expected to result in an "ownership change" under
Section 382 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder (taking
into account both the proposed transfer and any other transactions of which
the Company is aware) and, if so, (iii) whether such "ownership change"
would result in a material loss of tax benefits to the Company. In the
event the Company makes such determinations and provides the Purchaser with
written notice of the same within 10 Business Days of its receipt of the
above-referenced notice from the Purchaser, or in the event the Company
makes a reasonable written request to such Purchaser for further
information concerning such proposed transaction within the same 10-
Business Day period and makes the foregoing determinations within 10
Business Days after receipt of such further information, the Purchaser
agrees not to effect any such purchase or other acquisition as the Company
may request in order to avoid such an "ownership change."
