(collectively, “Governmental Licenses”) issued by the appropriate Governmental Agencies necessary to conduct

aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on Company or such applicable Subsidiary; Company and each Subsidiary of Company is in
compliance with the terms and conditions of all such Governmental Licenses, except where the failure so to comply would not, singly
or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on Company or such applicable Subsidiary of Company; all of the Governmental
Licenses are valid and in full force and effect, except where the invalidity of such Governmental Licenses or the failure of such
Governmental Licenses to be in full force and effect would not have a Material Adverse Effect on Company or such applicable Subsidiary

of business consistent with past practice or in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.


 


4.4.2     Absence
of Default. Since the date of the latest audited financial statements included in Company’s SEC Reports, no event
has occurred which either of itself or with the lapse of time or the giving of notice or both, would give any creditor of Company
the right to accelerate the maturity of any material Indebtedness of Company. Company is not in default under any law, rule, regulation,
order, writ, injunction, decree, determination or award applicable to Company where such default by Company could reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect on Company.

agreements or any transaction by Bank acting in a fiduciary capacity, (ii) statutory liens for amounts not yet delinquent or which
are being contested in good faith and (iii) such as do not, singly or in the aggregate, materially affect the value of such property
and do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by Company or any of its Subsidiaries.
Company and each of its Subsidiaries, as lessee, has the right under valid and existing leases of real and personal properties
that are material to Company or such Subsidiary, as applicable, in the conduct of its business to occupy or use all such properties
as presently occupied and used by it. Such existing leases and commitments to lease constitute or will constitute operating leases
for both tax and financial accounting purposes and the lease expense and minimum rental commitments with respect to such leases
and lease commitments are as disclosed in all material respects in Company’s SEC Reports.


 


4.5     No
Material Adverse Change. Since the date of the latest audited financial statements included in Company’s SEC Reports,
there has been no development or event which has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Company
or any of its Subsidiaries.


 


4.6     Legal
Matters.


 


4.6.1     Compliance
with Law. Company and each of its Subsidiaries (i) has complied with and (ii) is not under investigation with respect to,
and, to the Company’s knowledge, have not been threatened to be charged with or given any notice of any material violation
of any applicable statutes, rules, regulations, orders and restrictions of any domestic or foreign government, or any instrumentality
or agency thereof, having jurisdiction over the conduct of its business or the ownership of its properties, except where any such
failure to comply or violation would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Company or any of its Subsidiaries.


 


4.6.2     Regulatory
Enforcement Actions. Company, Bank and its other Subsidiaries are in compliance in all material respects with all laws
administered by and regulations of any Governmental Agency applicable to it or to them, except where the failure to so comply would
not have a Material Adverse Effect. None of Company, Bank, Company’s other Subsidiaries nor any of their officers or directors
is now operating under any restrictions, agreements, memoranda, or commitments (other than restrictions of general application)
imposed by any Governmental Agency, nor are, to Company’s knowledge, (a) any such restrictions threatened or (b) any agreements,
memoranda or commitments being sought by any Governmental Agency.


 




    	 	-12-	 



     


    

 


4.6.3     Pending
Litigation. There are no actions, suits, proceedings or written agreements pending, or, to Company’s knowledge, threatened
or proposed, against Company, Bank, or any of its other Subsidiaries at law or in equity or before or by any federal, state, municipal,
or other governmental department, commission, board, or other administrative agency, domestic or foreign, that, either separately
or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a
whole, or affect issuance or payment of the Subordinated Notes; and neither Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to or
named as subject to the provisions of any order, writ, injunction, or decree of, or any written agreement with, any court, commission,
board or agency, domestic or foreign, that either separately or in the aggregate, will have a Material Adverse Effect on Company
and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.


 


4.6.4     Environmental.
No Property is or, to Company’s knowledge, has been a site for the use, generation, manufacture, storage, treatment, release,
threatened release, discharge, disposal, transportation or presence of any Hazardous Materials and neither Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries has engaged in such activities. There are no claims or actions pending or, to Company’s knowledge, threatened
against Company or any of its Subsidiaries by any Governmental Agency or by any other Person relating to any Hazardous Materials
or pursuant to any Hazardous Materials Law.


 


4.6.5     Brokerage
Commissions. Except for commissions paid to the Placement Agent, neither Company nor any Affiliate of Company is obligated
to pay any brokerage commission or finder’s fee to any Person in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.


 


4.6.6     Investment
Company Act. Neither Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is an “investment company” or a company “controlled”
by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.


 


4.7     No
Misstatement. The information furnished by Company to Purchasers in the data room established by Company on January 25,
2017 and in the investor presentation utilized by Company in connection with the offering and sale of the Subordinated Notes (including
statements made by members of Company management with respect to such investor presentation), when viewed together as a whole and
along with the Company SEC Reports and other information disclosed publicly by the Company, does not contain any untrue statement
of a material fact, or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading.


 




    	 	-13-	 



     


    

 


4.8     Reporting
Compliance. Company is subject to, and is in compliance in all material respects with, the reporting requirements of Section
13 and Section 15(d), as applicable, of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and the regulations of the
SEC thereunder (collectively, the “Exchange Act”). Company’s SEC Reports at the time they were or hereafter
are filed with the SEC, complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and did not and do not include
any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of
the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.


 


4.9     Internal
Control Over Financial Reporting. Company and its Subsidiaries maintain systems of “internal control over financial
reporting” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that comply with the requirements of the Exchange Act and have
been designed by, or under the supervision of, their respective principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons
performing similar functions, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation
of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP, including, but not limited to, a system of accounting controls
sufficient to provide reasonable assurances that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or
specific authorizations; (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity
with GAAP and to maintain accountability for assets; (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s
general or specific authorization; and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable
intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. Since the end of Company’s most recent audited
fiscal year, (y) Company has no knowledge of (i) any material weakness in Company’s internal control over financial reporting
(whether or not remediated) or (ii) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a
significant role in Company’s internal controls and (z) there has been no change in Company’s internal control over
financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Company’s internal control
over financial reporting.


 


4.10     Disclosure
Controls and Procedures. Company and its Subsidiaries maintain an effective system of disclosure controls and procedures
(as defined in Rule 13a-15 and Rule 15d-15 of the Exchange Act), that (i) are designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed by Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported
within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that material information relating to Company and its
Subsidiaries is made known to Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer by others within Company
and its Subsidiaries to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure, and (ii) are effective in all material respects to perform
the functions for which they were established. As of the date hereof, Company has no knowledge that would reasonably cause it to
believe that the evaluation to be conducted of the effectiveness of Company’s disclosure controls and procedures for the
most recently ended fiscal quarter period will result in a finding that such disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective
for such quarter ended. Based on the evaluation of Company’s and each Subsidiary’s disclosure controls and procedures
described above, Company is not aware of (1) any significant deficiency in the design or operation of internal controls which could
adversely affect Company’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data or any material weaknesses in
internal controls or (2) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant
role in Company’s internal controls. Since the most recent evaluation of Company’s disclosure controls and procedures
described above, there have been no significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect
internal controls.

Market Transaction”). In connection with any such Secondary Market Transaction, Company shall, at any such Purchaser’s
expense, cooperate with any such Purchaser and otherwise reasonably assist any such Purchaser, at any such Purchaser’s expense,
in satisfying the market standards to which any such Purchaser customarily adheres or which may be reasonably required in the marketplace
or by applicable rating agencies in connection with any such Secondary Market Transaction. Subject to any written confidentiality
obligation, all information regarding Company may be furnished, without liability except in the case of gross negligence or willful
misconduct, to any Purchaser and to any Person reasonably deemed necessary by Purchaser in connection with participation in such
Secondary Market Transaction. All documents, financial statements, appraisals and other data relevant to Company or the Subordinated
Notes may be retained by any such Person.

the limitation imposed on the capital treatment of subordinated debt during the five (5) years immediately preceding the Maturity

extent permitted by law.

provisions. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts,
each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute
but one and the same instrument. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, or by e-mail delivery
