4.1.9 Acquisition Proposal. AB and the Bank will immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any Persons conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal. AB agrees that neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries will, and AB will direct and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its and its Subsidiaries’ directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives (including, without limitation, any investment banker, attorney or accountant retained by it or any of its Subsidiaries) not to initiate, solicit, encourage or take any other action to facilitate any inquiries or the making of any proposal or offer(including, without limitation, any proposal or offer to shareholders of AB) with respect to an Acquisition Event (any such proposal or offer, an “Acquisition Proposal”) or engage in any negotiations concerning, or provide any confidential information or data to, or have any discussions with, any Person relating to an Acquisition Proposal, or otherwise facilitate any effort or attempt to make or implement an Acquisition Proposal; except that, in the event AB receives an unsolicited bona fide Acquisition Proposal and the board of directors of AB determines prior to approval of this Agreement and the Merger by AB’s shareholders at the AB Meeting, in good faith and after consultation with independent legal counsel, that (a) such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or is reasonably expected to result in a Superior Proposal, and (b) fiduciary duties applicable to it require it to engage in negotiations with, provide confidential information or data to, or have any discussions with a Person in connection with such Acquisition Proposal, AB may do so to the extent the board of directors of AB determines it is required by its fiduciary duties. In such event, prior to providing any confidential information or data to any such Person, AB and such Person shall have executed a confidentiality agreement on terms at least as favorable to AB as those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement. AB will further notify GBCI in writing promptly (and in any event within two Business Days) if any such inquiries or proposals are received by, any such information is requested from, or any such negotiations or discussions are sought to be initiated or continued with AB, or if any such inquiry, proposal or request is thereafter materially modified or amended, including providing to GBCI the material terms and conditions of any such proposal or inquiry in connection with each required notice, together with a copy of any written proposals received (it being understood that the name of Person making the Acquisition Proposal may be redacted from the copy of the written proposal provided to GBCI). AB will take the necessary steps to inform the appropriate individuals or entities referred to in the second sentence of this Section 4.1.9 of the obligations to be undertaken in this Section 4.1.9. Nothing contained in this Section 4.1.9 shall prohibit AB or the board of directors of AB from complying with AB’s obligations required under Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act; provided, however, that any such disclosure relating to an Acquisition Proposal (other than a “stop, look and listen” or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f)under the Exchange Act) shall be deemed a change in the board of directors of AB’s recommendation that AB’s shareholders approve this Agreement and the Merger unless the board of directors of AB reaffirms such recommendation in such disclosure.

4.3.2 Submission to Shareholders. AB will promptly take the actions necessary in accordance with applicable Law and its articles of incorporation and bylaws to convene a shareholders’ meeting to consider the approval of this Agreement and to authorize the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (such meeting and any adjournment or postponement thereof, the “AB Meeting”). The AB Meeting will be held on the earliest practical date after the date the Prospectus/Proxy Statement may first be sent to AB’s shareholders without objection by applicable Governmental Authorities. The board of directors of AB has adopted a resolution recommending approval of this Agreement and the Merger by AB’s shareholders, and it shall not withdraw, modify, or qualify its recommendation unless, subsequent to the Execution Date, AB receives a Superior Proposal and the board of directors of AB determines, in good faith and upon the written advice of independent legal counsel, that it would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law not to withdraw, modify, or qualify such recommendation. AB shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from the shareholders of AB approval of this Agreement in accordance with Utah Law, including (except as provided in the preceding sentence) by communicating to its shareholders its recommendation(and including such recommendation in the Prospectus/Proxy Statement) that they approve this Agreement and the Merger. Subject to applicable Law, AB shall adjourn or postpone the AB Meeting if, as of the time for which such meeting is originally scheduled, there are insufficient shares of AB Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of such meeting, or if, on the date of such AB Meeting, (a) AB has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of shares necessary to obtain the required approval by AB’s shareholders and such approval remains possible to obtain and (b) the shareholders of AB have authorized by the requisite vote under Utah Law the adjournment pursuant to the Prospectus/Proxy Statement; provided that AB shall only be required to adjourn the AB Meeting two times pursuant to this Section 4.3.2.

7.4.6 Superior Proposal—Termination by AB. By the board of directors of AB upon written notice to GBCI if AB’s board of directors has in good faith determined that an Acquisition Proposal received by AB constitutes a Superior Proposal; provided, however, that AB may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.4.6 unless (a) it has not materially breached Section 4.1.9 or Section 4.3.2, (b) promptly following the delivery of such notice of termination, it enters into a definitive acquisition agreement relating to such Superior Proposal, (c) it has provided GBCI at least 10 days’ prior written notice advising GBCI that the board of directors of AB is prepared to accept a Superior Proposal (the “Superior Proposal Notice Period”) and has given GBCI, if it so elects, an opportunity to amend the terms of this Agreement during the Superior Proposal Notice Period (and negotiated with GBCI in good faith with respect to such terms during the Superior Proposal Notice Period) in such a manner as would enable AB’s board of directors to proceed with the Merger without violating their fiduciary duties, and (d) simultaneously upon entering into such definitive acquisition agreement relating to such Superior Proposal referred to in clause (b), it delivers to GBCI the Break-Up Fee.
