transfer, convey and deliver the Shares to Purchaser for the consideration specified herein. 
 2.2 Estimated Purchase Price;
Adjustment. 
 (a) Not fewer than five Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver, or cause to be
delivered, to Purchaser (1) the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet, and (2) a certificate of Seller certifying that, to Seller’s Knowledge, the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet has been prepared in the same manner as the Reference Balance
Sheet (without any changes or modifications in the method of application of the Bank Accounting Principles). Following such delivery and prior to the Closing, Purchaser may review the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet and Seller shall consider
in good faith any disputes of Purchaser with respect thereto. 
 (b) As soon as practicable, but in no event more than
60 days following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and deliver, or cause to be delivered to Seller, (1) the Closing Balance Sheet, and (2) a certificate of Purchaser certifying that, to
Purchaser’s Knowledge, the Closing Balance Sheet has been prepared in the same manner as the Reference Balance Sheet (without any changes or modifications in the method of application of the Bank Accounting Principles). 

(c) Seller shall, within 30 days after the delivery by Purchaser to Seller of the Closing Balance Sheet,
complete its review of the Closing Balance Sheet. The Closing Balance Sheet shall become final and binding upon the parties on the 30th day following delivery thereof, unless Seller determines that the Closing Balance Sheet is inaccurate or has not
been prepared consistent with the Reference Balance Sheet and Bank Accounting Principles and gives written notice of its disagreement with the Closing Balance Sheet (the “Seller’s Objection”) to Purchaser


  
 12 









 
prior to such date. The Seller’s Objection shall (1) specify in reasonable detail the nature of each disagreement so asserted and (2) specify what Seller reasonably believes is the
correct Closing NAV and Premium based on the disagreements set forth in such Seller’s Objection. If Seller delivers a Seller’s Objection, then the Closing Balance Sheet, the Closing NAV and Premium (as revised or adjusted in accordance
with this sentence) shall become final and binding upon Purchaser and Seller on the earlier of (A) the date Purchaser and Seller resolve in writing any differences they have with respect to the matters specified in the Seller’s Objection
and (B) the date any disputed matters are finally resolved in writing in accordance with the procedures described in this Agreement. During the 30-day period following the delivery of the Seller’s Objection, Purchaser and Seller shall seek
in good faith to resolve in writing any differences that they may have with respect to the matters specified in the Seller’s Objection. Purchaser and its accountants shall, and shall cause the Bank or its successor to, and Seller and its
accountants shall, promptly provide the other party and its accountants and representatives reasonable access to all personnel, books and records, data and financial statements and any other information, including work papers of its accountants,
reasonably requested by the other party to the extent necessary for such party to review the Closing Balance Sheet or to prepare the Seller’s Objection (in the case of Seller) or to review the Seller’s Objection (in the case of Purchaser);
provided that such party and its accountants and representatives have executed all release letters reasonably requested by the other party’s accountants in connection therewith. 

(d) If Seller and Purchaser are unable to resolve all of their disagreements with respect to the determination of the Closing Balance
Sheet, Closing NAV and Premium within the 30-day period after delivery of the Seller’s Objection, they shall refer their remaining differences to KPMG or another nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants as to which
Seller and Purchaser mutually agree (the “CPA Firm”), who shall, limiting their review to still unresolved matters included in the Seller’s Objection and acting as experts and not as arbitrators, determine the Closing Balance
Sheet, Closing NAV and Premium consistent with the Reference Balance Sheet and the Bank Accounting Principles. The parties shall instruct the CPA Firm to deliver the Closing Balance Sheet, Closing NAV and Premium to Purchaser and Seller no later
than 20 Business Days after the remaining differences underlying the Seller’s Objection are referred to the CPA Firm. The CPA Firm’s determination shall include a certification that it determined the Closing Balance Sheet, Closing NAV and
Premium in accordance with this Section 2.2(d) and shall be conclusive and binding upon Purchaser and Seller, absent clear and manifest error. The fees and disbursements of the CPA Firm shall be paid by Purchaser or Seller in proportion
to those matters submitted to the CPA Firm that are resolved against that party, as such fees and disbursements are allocated by the CPA Firm in accordance with this Section 2.2 at the time of the CPA Firm’s determination. The fees
and expenses of Seller’s accountants and representatives, incurred in connection with their review of the Closing Balance Sheet and, if applicable, the Seller’s Objection shall be borne by Seller, and the fees and expenses of
Purchaser’s accountants and representatives, incurred in connection with their review of the Closing Balance Sheet and, if applicable, the Seller’s Objection shall be borne by Purchaser. Purchaser and its accountants and Seller and its
accountants shall (and Purchaser shall cause the Company or its successor to) make available to the CPA Firm all relevant books and records and any work papers (including those of the parties’ respective accountants) relating to the Reference
Balance Sheet Date, the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet, the Seller’s Objection and the Closing Balance Sheet and all other items reasonably requested by the CPA Firm. For the purpose of the final determination of the Closing Balance Sheet, no
change shall be made after the Closing with 

  
 13 









 
respect to the accounting records of Bank on which the Closing Balance Sheet is to be based that would prevent, obstruct or otherwise affect the procedures set forth in this
Section 2.2. Each party shall have the ability, in their discretion, to submit written or oral submissions to the CPA Firm with respect to matters subject to the dispute. A copy of any such submission shall be provided to the other party
to the dispute. 
 (e) If (i) the Closing NAV plus the Premium exceed the Estimated Closing NAV plus the
Estimated Premium, Purchaser shall make an adjustment payment to Seller in the dollar amount of such excess or (ii) the Closing NAV plus the Premium is less than the Estimated Closing NAV plus the Estimated Premium, Seller shall
make an adjustment payment to Purchaser in the absolute dollar value of such difference. Any payment pursuant to this Section 2.2(e) shall be made together with interest on the amount of such payment at the Applicable Rate calculated on
the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed, accrued from the Closing Date until, but not including, the date of payment. Within ten days following the date on which the Closing Balance Sheet, Closing NAV and Premium become
final and binding pursuant to this Section 2.2, any payment payable pursuant to this Section 2.2(e) shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account or accounts designated by Purchaser or Seller, as
the case may be, at least two Business Days prior to the expiration of such ten day period. Any payment made pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be treated for all tax purposes as adjustments to the Purchase Price.

LLC as part of the Retained Assets Contribution and Assumption. Schedule 2.3 will identify each asset and the net book value of the Retained Assets at September 30, 2011. All payments or sale proceeds (other than payments of interest) received
with respect to the Retained Assets after the date hereof through the Closing Date, shall be included in the Retained Assets. For clarification purposes, the Retained Assets identified in (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above shall be
specifically identified in Schedule 2.3, however their net book value, while identified in Schedule 2.3 as of September 31, 2011, will be subject to change based on Bank Accounting Principles applied through Closing. Further, the Retained
Assets specifically identified in (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above shall not be added to or excluded from the Retained Assets regardless of any changes in loan, asset or balance sheet classifications for such assets after September 30,
2011 unless specifically agreed to by Purchaser and Seller prior to Closing. If an asset of the Bank should have been included on Schedule 2.3 as of September 30, 2011, then upon mutual agreement of Seller and Purchaser, Schedule 2.3 shall be

judgments in any such actions and in the earliest reasonable time at which such judgments might be rendered) as well as all other obligations of Seller. The cash available to Seller, after taking into account all other anticipated uses of the cash,

its business as presently conducted. Purchaser is duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign corporation authorized to do business in each jurisdiction in which the nature of its activities or the character of the properties it owns or leases

Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Purchaser and, constitutes (in each case assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by Seller) the legal, valid and binding obligations of Purchaser enforceable against Purchaser in
accordance with its terms, subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, moratorium, restructuring or similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally and general equitable
principles regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity.

a material adverse effect upon the ability of Purchaser to perform its obligations under, and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
 4.5 Regulatory Matters. Purchaser has timely filed all material reports, registrations and statements, together with any amendments required to be made with respect thereto, that it was required to
file since December 31, 2010 with any Regulatory Agency, and has paid all applicable material fees and assessments due and payable in connection therewith, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a material
adverse effect on the ability of Purchaser to perform its obligations under, and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. To Purchaser’s Knowledge, no Regulatory Agency or other Governmental Authority has initiated or has pending any

use reasonable best efforts to obtain each such approval as promptly as reasonably practicable. The parties shall cooperate with each other in connection therewith (including the furnishing of any information and any reasonable undertaking or
commitments that may be required to obtain the Regulatory Approvals). Each party will provide the other with copies of any applications and all correspondence relating thereto prior to filing, other than material filed in connection therewith under

representatives, access, upon reasonable notice and during customary business hours throughout the period before the Closing Date, at Purchaser’s sole expense, to Bank’s books, papers and records relating to the assets, properties,
operations, obligations and liabilities (other than minutes that discuss any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any proposals to acquire the Seller or Bank which were made prior to the date of the Agreement or any other subject
matter Seller reasonably determines should be treated as confidential) in which Purchaser may have a reasonable interest; provided, however, that neither Seller nor Bank shall be required to take any action that would provide access to
or to disclose information where such access or disclosure would result in the waiver by it of the privilege protecting communications between it and any of its counsel or where such access or disclosure would contravene any Applicable Law or Order
or binding agreement entered into prior to the date of this Agreement; provided, further, that the parties shall attempt to make appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements. Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
minimize any interference with Bank’s regular business operations during any such access to Bank’s property, books and records. 
 (b) At the request of Purchaser, during the period from the date of this Agreement to the Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause Bank and their respective officers and


  
 38 









 
employees to, and shall make all reasonable efforts to cause their respective data processing service providers to, cooperate and assist Purchaser in connection with preparation for an electronic
and systematic conversion of all applicable data regarding Bank to Purchaser’s system of electronic data processing; provided, however, that no such conversion shall occur until the Closing. Purchaser shall be responsible for reasonable and
agreed upon costs incurred by Seller, including all fees to third parties, in connection with any such efforts. 
 (c) Purchaser
acknowledges and agrees that the Confidentiality Agreement remains in full force and effect and, in addition, covenants and agrees to keep confidential, in accordance with the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement, information provided to

effect.

and other authorized representatives, and Purchaser shall, and shall cause Bank to, permit Seller and its officers, employees, counsel, accountants and other authorized representatives, reasonable access to any and all material, information, records
and other documents in its possession or control relating to matters arising on or before the Closing Date and reasonably necessary in connection with (i) accounting purposes, (ii) regulatory purposes, (iii) any Proceeding involving
the party requesting access to such documents, (iv) Tax purposes and (v) the Retained Assets, subject to confidentiality requirements. Seller shall use reasonable efforts to minimize disruption or interference with regular business
operations of Purchaser and Bank. All material, information, records and other documents, whether held by Purchaser, Bank or Seller, shall be maintained for such periods as are required by Law, unless the parties shall agree in writing to a longer
period. Between the date hereof and the Closing Date, the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to agree to policies and procedures to be followed by each party in connection with any request by Seller, following the Closing Date, for
Purchaser and Bank to provide Seller with any information which may be requested hereunder.

 (b) the breach of any covenant or agreement to be performed by Purchaser herein. 

7.3 Limitations on Liability. 
 (a) Time Limitations and Nonsurvival. The representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement shall survive for two years following the Closing Date, except that the representations and

Date except to the extent expressly contemplating performance thereafter. 
 (b) Limitations on Seller’s
Indemnification. Seller will have no obligation to indemnify Purchaser for any Losses pursuant to Section 7.1(a) until such time as such Losses, in the aggregate, exceed one million dollars ($1,000,000) at which point Seller shall be

pursuing any rights against such third party. An indemnified party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any claim or liability that such indemnified party asserts under this ARTICLE VII; provided that the indemnified party
shall not be required to incur any out-of-pocket fees or expenses in connection with such mitigation. In the event that an indemnified party shall fail to use such commercially reasonable 

  
 54 









 
efforts to mitigate any claim or liability, then notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the indemnifying party shall not be required to indemnify any
indemnified party for any portion of a Loss that could reasonably be expected to have been avoided if the indemnified party had made such efforts.

shall be entitled to assume control of the defense of such action or claim; provided that: 
 (i) the indemnified party shall
be entitled to participate in the defense of such claim and to employ counsel at its own expense to assist in the handling of such claim; 
 (ii) no indemnifying party shall consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by each claimant or plaintiff to the
indemnified party and its Affiliates of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or if, pursuant to or as a result of such consent or settlement, injunctive or other equitable relief would be imposed against the indemnified party or
such judgment or settlement could materially interfere with the business or operations of the indemnified party; and 
 (iii)
after written notice by the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume control of the defense of any such action in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified
party hereunder for any legal fees, costs and expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof. 
 (b) If the indemnifying party does not assume control of the defense of such claim in a reasonable period of time following its receipt of notice of such claim in accordance with the foregoing provisions,
the indemnified party shall have the right to defend such claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate, and the indemnifying party will promptly reimburse the indemnified party therefor; provided, that the indemnified party shall not be entitled
to consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of such claim without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party.

Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended or shall be construed to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under
or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

contract or at law or in equity, exclusively, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of New York, and (1) irrevocably submits to the exclusive
jurisdiction of such courts, (2) waives any objection to laying venue in any such action or proceeding in such courts, and (3) waives any objection that such courts are an inconvenient forum or do not have jurisdiction over any party. Each
of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Applicable Law. 

  
 58 









 (b) Each party hereby (i) consents to service of process in any action between the
parties arising in whole or in part under or in connection with this Agreement in any manner permitted by New York Law, (ii) agrees that service of process made in accordance with clause (i) or made by registered or certified mail, return
receipt requested, at its address specified pursuant to Section 9.1, will constitute good and valid service of process in any such action and (iii) waives and agrees not to assert (by way of motion, as a defense, or otherwise) in
any such action any claim that service of process made in accordance with clause (i) or (ii) does not constitute good and valid service of process. 
 9.8 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH
SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS

one or more of the provisions contained herein, or the application thereof in any circumstances, is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect for any reason, the parties shall negotiate in good faith with a view to the substitution
therefor of a suitable and equitable solution in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid provision, provided, that the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every
other respect and of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not be in any way impaired thereby, it being intended that all of the rights and privileges of the parties hereto shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable
Law. 
 9.10 Cumulative Remedies; Specific Performance. All rights and remedies under this Agreement or otherwise
afforded by Applicable Law to any party, shall be cumulative and not alternative Without limiting the rights of a party hereto to pursue all other legal and equitable rights available to such party for another party’s failure to perform its
obligations under this Agreement, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the remedy at law for any failure to perform their respective obligations hereunder would be inadequate and that each party shall be entitled to specific performance,
injunctive relief or other equitable remedies in the event of any such failure.

result of any breach or alleged breach of this Agreement, the prevailing party in said litigation shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, including attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in litigating entitlement
to attorneys’ fees and costs and in determining or quantifying the amount of recoverable attorneys’ fees and costs (through both trial and appellate levels) from the nonprevailing party. 

9.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of
which together shall constitute one instrument. 
 9.14 Schedules. Following the date of this Agreement, Seller may
update the disclosures schedules to disclose any development or circumstance occurring between the date hereof and the Closing. No such update shall be taken into account in determining whether a Material Adverse Effect has occurred. However, any
such update shall be taken into account for the purpose of determining the accuracy of any representation or warranty of Seller.

 Capitalized terms used in this

Both the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet and Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared, and each of the Estimated Closing NAV, Bank NAV and

 In preparing the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet and

or change to accounting policies and procedures that would otherwise be applied as a result of the Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated thereby, including any decisions made by Purchaser, or actions taken in respect thereof, that would
otherwise require adjustments which would impact the Closing Balance Sheet. 
 For avoidance of doubt, the adjustments and
changes that would be excluded in preparing the deliverables and performing the calculations contemplated above would include, but would not be limited to, the following: 

 

	 	•	 	 Held for sale and/or discontinued operations accounting arising from the Agreement but not pursuant to the ordinary course of business;

	 	•	 	 Goodwill or other intangible valuation; 


  

	 	•	 	 Purchase accounting adjustments of Purchaser; 


  

	 	•	 	 Costs associated with severance pay and stay bonuses paid pursuant to the Agreement but not those costs incurred in the ordinary course of business;



  

	 	•	 	 Termination of benefit plans and 401k plans required or contemplated by the Agreement; 



 

	 	•	 	 Costs associated with termination or non-renewal of contracts requested by Purchaser, or otherwise required or contemplated by the Agreement;











	 	•	 	 Other transaction and acquisition costs agreed to be paid by Purchaser; 



 

	 	•	 	 Changes in policies and practices governing the allowance for loan loss methodology; 



 

	 	•	 	 Changes to other matters of judgment or significant accounting policies including goodwill and long-lived asset impairments;



  

	 	•	 	 Changes in policies and practices governing the assignment of loan risk ratings and the determination of impairment under Accounting Standards
Codification Section 310; 


  

	 	•	 	 Any post-closing adjustments after 20 business days less than $50,000; provided that if the aggregate amount of such adjustments exceeds $200,000, then
all such adjustments shall be recorded. 


 Notwithstanding the application of Bank Accounting Principles noted
above, the following shall be recognized on the Closing Balance Sheet and related calculations of Closing NAV: 
  

	 	•	 	 The sum of all deferred tax assets, the deferred tax valuation allowance and deferred tax liabilities will be recorded at $0.



 The Seller will promptly inform the Purchaser of: (i) any changes in its or the Bank’s accounting
policies, methods and conventions after September 30, 2011, whether or not required by promulgated changes to GAAP, (ii) the dollar impact of such changes on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet, and (iii) the calculations thereof, if
any.
