any), means any such day on which dealings in dollar deposits are conducted
among banks in the offshore dollar Interbank market. All payments and

Calculation. Except as otherwise stated in this Agreement, the annual interest
rate for this Agreement is computed on a 365/360 basis; that is, by applying the
ratio of the annual Interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the
outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the
principal balance is outstanding. This results in more Interest or a higher fee
than if a 365-day year is used. Installments of principal which are not paid
when due under this Agreement shall continue to bear interest until paid.    
7.6   Default Rate. Upon the occurrence of any default or after maturity or
after judgment has been rendered on any obligation under this Agreement, all
amounts outstanding under this Agreement, including any interest, fees, or costs
which are not paid when due, will at the option of the Bank bear Interest at a
rate which is 5.00 percentage point(s) higher than the rate of interest
otherwise provided under this Agreement. This may result in compounding of
interest. This will not constitute a waiver of any default.

hereof) only with respect to Obligations under Facility C and/or with respect to
the collateral pledged under Section 6.1 (b) hereof and under the Commercial
Pledge Agreement and addenda thereto. Nothing in this Section 10.21 affects
Bank’s right to enforce its rights and remedies with respect to an event of
default other than an event of default arising under Section 10.21.1, 10.21.2
and/or Section 10.21.3 and, If there exists events of defaults under
Section 10.21 and under other provisions of this Agreement, then the restriction
in the previous sentence on Bank’s enforcement of its rights and remedies will
not apply.       10.21.1 Facility C Loan to Value. Borrower must ensure that the
amount of Tier 1 capital (computed consistent with Call Report methodology) of
Panhandle is at least four limes (400% of) the amount of outstanding Obligations

1 capital drops below the Minimum Capital Level For any reason, Borrower must,
within 2 business days thereafter, either repay Obligations under Facility C or
raise Panhandle’s Tier 1 capital in a lawful manner so that Borrower’s covenant
in the previous sentence is satisfied.         10.21.2 Non-performing Assets;
Losses. Borrower must:

  (a)   Ensure that non-performing assets (90 days past due, non-accrual) as a
percentage of capital and reserves (Tier 1 capital + ALLL reserves), as reported
by Panhandle in the applicable Call Report, do not exceed 35.00% at the end of
any fiscal quarter.     (b)   Ensure that non-performing assets (90 days past
due, non-accrual) as a percentage of total loans and OREO, as reported by
Panhandle in the applicable Call Report, do not exceed 7.00% at the end of any
fiscal quarter.     (c)   Cause Panhandle to maintain on a quarterly basis as of
the end of each fiscal quarter its allowance for loan and lease losses at an
amount that exceeds 1.50% of its total loans and leases, net of unearned income
(all computed consistent with Call Report methodology).

Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.50:1.00 measured quarterly.

  (a)   “Debt Service Coverage Ratio” means the ratio of (a) Cash Flow to
(b) aggregate debt obligations of Borrower, including those related to trust
preferred securities end obligations hereunder, excluding from the denominator
and the numerator the amount of Panhandle’s non-recurring expense for FDIC
special assessments in 2009. This ratio will be calculated at the end of each
reporting period for which the Bank requires financial statements, using the
results of the three-month period ending with that reporting period. That
current portion of long-term liabilities will be measured as of the last day of
the calculation period.     (b)   ‘Cash Flow” is defined as consolidated
earnings before Interest, depreciation and amortization

injuries to the person or property of any third parties or to any natural
resources.     (b)   Any use, generation, manufacture, production, storage,
release, threatened release, discharge, disposal or presence of a hazardous
substance. This indemnity will apply whether the hazardous substance is on,
under or about any of the Borrower’s property or operations or property leased
to the Borrower, whether or not the property has been taken by the Bank as
collateral.

      Upon demand by the Bank, the Borrower will defend any investigation,
action or proceeding alleging the presence of any hazardous substance in any
such location, which affects the Real Property or which is brought or commenced
against the Bank, whether alone or together with the Borrower or any other
person, all at the Borrower’s own cost and by counsel to be approved by the Bank
in the exercise of its reasonable judgment. In the alternative, the Bank may
elect to conduct its own defense at the expense of the Borrower. The Borrower’s
obligations to the Bank under this Article, except the obligation to give
notices to the Bank, shall survive termination of this Agreement, repayment of
the Borrower’s obligations to the Bank under this Agreement, and foreclosure of
the deed of trust or mortgage encumbering the Real Property or similar
proceedings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnity set forth above will
not apply to any hazardous substances that originate on or under the Real
Property after the date the Bank acquires title to the Real Property by
foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure.     11.2   Representation and
Warranty Regarding Hazardous Substances. Before signing this Agreement, the
Borrower researched and inquired into the previous uses and ownership of the
Real Property. Based on that due diligence, the Borrower represents and warrants
that to the best of its knowledge, no hazardous substance has been disposed of
or released or otherwise exists in, on, under or onto the Real Property, except
as the Borrower has disclosed to the Bank in writing.     11.3   Compliance
Regarding Hazardous Substances. The Borrower has compiled, and will comply and
cause all occupants of the Real Property to comply, with all current and future
laws, regulations and ordinances or other requirements of any governmental
authority relating to or imposing liability or standards of conduct concerning
protection of health or the environment or hazardous substances (“Environmental
Laws”). The Borrower shall promptly, at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense,
take all reasonable actions with respect to any hazardous substances or other
environmental condition at, on, or under the Real Property necessary to
(i) comply with all applicable Environmental Laws; (ii) allow continued use,
occupation or operation of the Real Property; or (iii) maintain the fair market
value of the Real Property. The Borrower acknowledges that hazardous substances
may permanently and materially impair the value and use of the Real Property.

loan, the Borrower will promptly notify the Bank in writing if it knows,
suspects or believes there may be any hazardous substance in or around the Real
Property, or in the soil, groundwater or soil vapor on or under the Real
Property, or that the Borrower or the Real Property may be subject to any
threatened or pending investigation by any governmental agency under any current
or future law, regulation or ordinance pertaining to any hazardous substance.

representatives will have the right at any reasonable time, after giving
reasonable notice to the Borrower, to enter and visit the Real Property and any
other locations where any personal property collateral securing this Agreement

property collateral, and following the date on which the Bank believes in good
faith that there is a violation of any of the foregoing in this Section 11.5 or
an event of default has occurred and is continuing, for the purpose of taking
and removing environmental samples and conducting tests on any part of the Real
Property. The Borrower shall reimburse the Bank on demand for the costs of any
such environmental Investigation and testing that is undertaken in good faith or
following an event of default hereunder. The Bank will make reasonable efforts
during any site Visit, observation or testing conducted pursuant this paragraph
to avoid interfering with the Borrower’s use of the Real Property and the
personal property collateral. The Bank is under no duty, however, to visit or
observe the Real Property or the personal property collateral or to conduct
tests, and any such acts by the Bank will be solely for the purposes of
protecting the Bank’s security and preserving the Bank’s rights under this
Agreement. No site visit, observation or testing or any report or findings made
as a result thereof (“Environmental Report”) (i) will result in a waiver of any
default of the Borrower, (ii) impose any liability on the Bank; or (iii) be a
representation or warranty of any kind regarding the Real Property or the
personal property collateral (including its condition or value or compliance
with any laws) or the Environmental Report (including its accuracy or
completeness). In the event the Bank has a duty or obligation under applicable
laws, regulations or other requirements to disclose an Environmental Report to
the Borrower or any other party, the Borrower authorizes the Bank to make such a
disclosure. The Bank may also disclose an Environmental Report to any regulatory
authority, and to any other parties as necessary or appropriate in the Bank’s
judgment. The Borrower further understands and agrees that any Environmental
Report or other information regarding a site visit, observation or testing that
is disclosed to the Borrower by the Bank or its agents and representatives is to

Borrower) by the Borrower without advice or assistance from the Bank.     11.6
