THIS STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT, dated as of March 18, 2004 (Agreement), is made by and between Cathay General
Bancorp, a Delaware corporation and a registered Bank Holding Company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 as amended (Cathay), and Broadway Financial Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a registered savings and loan holding
company under the Home Owners Loan Act (BFC), the owner of 100% of the outstanding shares of Broadway Federal Bank (BFB), a federal savings bank. BFB joins in this agreement for the purpose of providing certain undertakings,
representations, warranties and covenants.



WITNESSETH:



A. BFC deems it advisable and in its best interests and the
interest of its shareholders that the parties enter into a stock purchase agreement whereby Cathay shall acquire certain authorized but previously unissued shares of BFC Common Stock, par value of $.01 per share (newly issued Common
Shares, within the meaning of the definition of Acquiring Person in Section 1 of that certain rights agreement between BFC and U.S. Stock Transfer Corporation dated as of January 31, 2003 [the Rights Plan]), (the

B. BFC is
the sole holder of the outstanding shares of BFB which joins in this Agreement to expedite and give effect to the undertakings herein.

of this Agreement, on the date on which the shares of the BFC are transferred to Cathay (the Effective Date), BFC shall sell to Cathay, and Cathay shall purchase from BFC, the Shares.



1.2 Number of Shares. The number of Shares to be sold to Cathay shall
be 215,000, or such lesser number of Shares as BFC shall determine will not cause the exercisability of the preferred share purchase rights under, or otherwise conflict with, the Rights Plan.

Cathay, on the conditions set forth herein, shall deliver to BFC on the Effective Date $13.50 per share, payable in immediately available funds.

2.1 Mutual Covenants.



(a) Government Approvals. Each party will use its commercially reasonable efforts in good faith to take or cause to be taken as promptly as

fees required for its applications to the FRB and DFI. BFC shall pay any fees required for applications to the OTS. Each party shall respond to a written request for information sought by the other for the purpose of obtaining the Government
Approvals promptly and in all cases within five days after receipt of such request.



(b) Notification of Breach of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Each party shall promptly give written notice to the other parties upon becoming aware of the occurrence or impending or threatened
occurrence of any event which would cause or constitute a breach of any of the representations, warranties or covenants of that party contained or referred to in this Agreement and shall use its best efforts to prevent the same or remedy the same
promptly.



(c) Press Releases. No party shall issue any
press release or written statement for general circulation relating to this Agreement unless previously provided to the other parties for review and approval (which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and shall cooperate with the
other parties in the development and distribution of all news releases and other public information disclosures with respect to the Acquisition or this Agreement; provided that either party may, without the consent of the other parties, make any
disclosure with regard to this Agreement that it determines is required under any applicable law or regulation.



(d) Registration Rights. At or prior to the Effective Date hereof, the parties shall have executed an agreement in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit A providing for Cathay to have rights with respect to the registration of the Shares (the Registration Rights Agreement).



2.2 Covenants of Cathay.

otherwise transferred by Cathay except pursuant to an effective registration filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 (the Securities Act), in a transaction complying
with the requirements of SEC Rule 144, or in another transaction that is otherwise exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Cathay further agrees that the certificates representing the Shares from time to time shall bear the
following legend:



These securities have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933. They may not be sold, offered for sale, pledged or hypothecated in the absence of a valid registration statement covering such transaction under such Act or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to BFC that
such registration is not required.



Section 3. COVENANTS OF BFC AND
BFB.



(a) Corporate Action to Complete the
Acquisition. In connection with the sale of the Shares to Cathay, BFC will take such corporate action as is necessary to approve the issuance of the Shares to Cathay in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and to cause (i) the Shares to
be available for sale by BFC; (ii) the Shares, as sold to Cathay, to be duly authorized, validly issued and non-assessable in the name of Cathay; and (iii) in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, the Shares to be fully registered and
listed on the Nasdaq Small Cap Market. All corporate actions shall be taken in compliance with all corporate, securities and regulatory laws and regulations and shall be completed in the most expeditious manner possible. BFC hereby agrees to
promptly take any other corporate action as may be necessary to consummate the actions anticipated under this Agreement. BFC and the Board of Directors of BFC specifically agree to take now and in the future on a timely basis any and all actions
necessary or as requested by Cathay, including as appropriate amending BFCs Rights Plan or repurchasing any Shares owned by Cathay at a mutually agreeable price to be determined, to ensure that the acquisition or holding of the Shares by
Cathay does not cause the exercisability of the preferred share purchase rights under, or otherwise conflict with, the Rights Plan.



(b) Changes in Capital Stock; Dividends. At or prior to the Effective Date, except with the prior written consent of Cathay or as otherwise
provided on Schedule 3(b) to this Agreement, BFC shall not: declare or pay any dividends, other than its normal quarterly dividends consistent with past practices; effect any split or reverse split or make any change in the rights, preferences or
privileges of, any class or series of its authorized, issued or outstanding capital stock; grant or issue any stock option relating to, right to acquire, or security convertible into, shares of its capital stock or other equity securities; purchase,
redeem, retire or otherwise acquire (other than in a fiduciary capacity) any shares of, or any security convertible into, capital stock or other equity security, or agree to so any of the foregoing, except as expressly provided herein.

to the Effective Date, subject to the requirements of applicable law, BFB shall give Cathay and its counsel and accountants full access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable request, to all of its properties, books, contracts,
commitments and records including, but not limited to,



3



---

the corporate, financial and operational records, papers, reports, instructions, procedures, tax returns and filings, tax
settlement letters, material contracts or commitments, regulatory examinations and correspondences, and shall allow Cathay to make copies of such materials and shall furnish Cathay with all such information concerning its affairs as Cathay may
reasonably request. BFB shall also use its reasonable best efforts to cause its independent accounting firm to make available to Cathay, its accountants, counsel and other agents, to the extent reasonably requested in connection with such review,
such firms work papers and documentation relating to its work papers and its audits of the books and records of BFB. The availability or actual delivery of such information about either party shall not affect the covenants, representations and
warranties contained in this Agreement. BFB shall respond to any written request for information promptly and in all cases within five days after receipt of such request. BFB shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its officers, directors,
employees, auditors, and attorneys to cooperate with Cathay in its reasonable requests for information. Cathay shall treat as confidential all such information in accordance with the confidentiality letter agreement, dated February 23, 2004, entered
into between Cathay and BFC, which agreement shall remain in full force and effect.



Section 4. JOINT REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF BFB AND BFC.



BFB and BFC jointly and severally represent and warrant to Cathay that, except as set forth on a Schedule attached to this Agreement and corresponding in number with the applicable section:



4.1 Organization.



(a) BFB is a federal savings association, duly chartered, validly existing
and in good standing under the laws of the United States and has all requisite power and authority, corporate and otherwise, to own, operate and lease its assets and properties and to carry on its business substantially as it is now being conducted.



(b) BFC is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and
in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, is a savings and loan holding company under the Home Owners Loan Act (HOLA) and is the sole stockholder of BFB.



(c) Each of BFC and BFB is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the character of
the assets or properties owned or leased by it or the nature of the business transacted by it requires that it be so qualified, except where the failure to so qualify would not reasonably be likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a
Material Adverse Effect (as defined in Section 4.8) on BFC or materially adversely affect the ability of BFC or BFB to consummate the transactions contemplated herein. Each of BFC and BFB has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into
this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. On or before the Effective Date each of BFC and BFB will have received any Governmental Approvals for the actions anticipated
hereunder that may be required, including but not limited to, any share repurchases to be undertaken prior to the transactions contemplated hereby.



4



---

4.2 Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation
of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly approved and authorized by the Board of Directors of BFC, and no other corporate action on the part of BFC is required to be taken. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by BFC and
BFB and constitutes the valid and binding obligation of each of them and is enforceable against each of them, except to the extent that enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium,
receivership, conservatorship or similar laws or equitable principles or doctrines.



4.3 Conflicts. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by BFC and BFB does not, and the consummation by BFC and BFB of the transactions contemplated hereby will not, conflict with or result in any
violation, breach or termination of, or default or loss of a material benefit under, permit the acceleration of any obligation under, require the giving of notice or obtaining consent under, or result in the creation of any material lien, charge or
encumbrance on any property or assets under, (i) any provision of the Certificate or Charter or Bylaws of BFC or BFB, (ii) any mortgage, indenture, lease or agreement to which BFC or BFB is a party or by which any of their assets are bound, or (iii)
any permit, concession, grant, franchise, license, judgment, order, decree, statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to BFC or BFB or their respective properties, other than any such conflicts, violations or defaults which, with
respect to (ii) or (iii), would not reasonably be likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on BFC. Further, assuming that Cathay holds no other shares of BFC stock other than the Shares acquired pursuant to this
Agreement, Cathays acquisition and holding of the Shares will not cause the exercisability of the preferred share rights under, or otherwise conflict with, the Rights Plan.



4.4 Anti-takeover Provisions Inapplicable. No business combination, moratorium, control
share or other state anti-takeover statute or regulation applicable to BFC or BFB, (i) applies to the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) prohibits or restricts the ability of BFC to perform its obligations under this Agreement, (iii) would
have the effect of invalidating or voiding this Agreement, or (iv) would subject Cathay to any material impediment or condition in connection with the exercise of any of its rights under this Agreement.

requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as the case may be, and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder applicable to such BFC SEC Reports, and did not or will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

respect to BFC or BFB is pending or, to the knowledge of BFC, threatened, nor has any governmental entity indicated to BFC or BFB an intention to conduct the same, other than normal bank regulatory examinations and other investigations or reviews
the outcome of which is not reasonably expected by BFC to be likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on BFC.



(c) BFC and BFB are in substantial compliance with the applicable provisions of the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) and the regulations
promulgated thereunder. As of the date of this Agreement, BFC has not been advised of the existence of any fact or circumstance or set of facts or circumstances which, if true, would cause BFB to fail to be in substantial compliance with such
provisions. BFB has not received since December 31, 2000 a CRA rating from an applicable regulatory authority which is less than satisfactory.



4.11 Litigation. Except as disclosed in BFC SEC Reports, there is no suit, action, investigation or proceeding, legal, quasi-judicial,
administrative or otherwise, pending or, to the knowledge of BFC threatened, against or affecting BFC or BFB, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents, in their capacities as such, seeking damages in excess of $250,000,

their capacities as such.

(a) The outstanding loans, including guarantees thereon,
originated by BFB have been documented in all material respects in accordance with the policies of BFB, including guarantees thereon, and all loans purchased by or participated in by BFB are documented in a manner substantially consistent with such
policies. BFB has made available to Cathay for review each loan or other asset of BFC or any BFC Subsidiary that has been classified by examiners or others as Other Loans of Concern, Substandard, Doubtful or
Loss. BFB has made available to Cathay for review a complete list of the real estate acquired through foreclosure, repossession or deed in lieu thereof (REO) on the books of BFC or BFB as of December 31, 2003.



(b) All interest rate swaps, caps, floors and option agreements and other
interest rate risk management arrangements to which BFC or BFB is a party or by which any of their properties or assets may be bound were entered into in the ordinary course of business and, to the knowledge of BFC, in accordance with then customary
practice and applicable rules,

regulations and policies of the OTS and with counterparties believed to be financially responsible at the time. BFC, BFB
and the BFC Subsidiaries have duly performed in all material respects all of their respective obligations thereunder to the extent that such obligations to perform have accrued, and to the knowledge of BFC, there are no material breaches, violations
or defaults or allegations or assertions of such by any party thereunder.



(c) Except for pledges to secure public and trust deposits and borrowings in the ordinary course of business, none of the investments reflected in the BFC Financial Statements dated as of December 31, 2003 under the
heading Investment Securities, and none of the investments made by BFC, BFB and BFC Subsidiary since December 31, 2003, is subject to any restriction, whether contractual or statutory, which materially impairs the ability of BFC, BFB or
BFC Subsidiary to freely dispose of such investment at any time, other than those restrictions permitted or imposed on securities held for investment under GAAP. With respect to all material repurchase agreements to which BFC or BFB is a party, BFC
or BFB has a valid, perfected first lien or security interest in the government securities or other collateral securing each such repurchase agreement, and the value of the collateral securing each such repurchase agreement equals or exceeds the
amount of the debt secured by such collateral under such agreement. Except for any securities sold subject to repurchase obligations in the normal course of business and any loans or loan participations subject to customary repurchase obligations,
none of BFC or BFB has sold or otherwise disposed of any assets in a transaction in which the acquirer of such assets or other person has the right, either conditionally or absolutely, to require BFC, BFB or BFC Subsidiary to repurchase or otherwise
reacquire any such assets.



(d) All United States Treasury
securities, obligations of other United States Government agencies and corporations, obligations of States of the United States and their political subdivisions, and other investment securities classified as held to maturity and
available for sale held by BFC, BFB and the BFC Subsidiaries, as reflected in the BFC Financial Statements dated December 31, 2003, were classified and accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115
and the intentions of management.



4.13 Allowance for Loan
Losses.



(a) BFB allowance for loan losses
(ALL) is in compliance with BFBs existing methodology for determining the adequacy of its ALL as well as the standards established by applicable regulatory authorities and the Financial Accounting Standards Board.



(b) Section 4.13 of the BFC Disclosure Schedule includes the sum of the
aggregate amount of all NPAs (as defined below) and all troubled debt restructurings (as defined under GAAP) on the books of BFC, BFB and the BFC Subsidiaries as of the date set forth in such schedule. NPAs shall mean (i) all loans

nonaccrual status, (C) where a reasonable doubt exists, in the reasonable judgment of BFB, as to the timely future collectibility of principal and/or interest, whether or not interest is still accruing or the loan is less than 90 days past due, (D)
where the interest rate terms have been reduced and/or the maturity dates have been extended subsequent to the agreement under which the loan was originally created due to concerns regarding the borrowers ability to pay in accordance with

EXHIBIT A



BROADWAY FINANCIAL CORPORATION

REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT



THIS
REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (the Rights Agreement) is entered into as of March 18, 2004 by and between Cathay General Bancorp, a Delaware corporation and a registered Bank Holding BFC under the Bank Holding BFC Act of
1956 as amended (Cathay), and Broadway Financial Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a registered savings and loan holding company under the Home Owners Loan Act (BFC), the owner of 100% of the
outstanding shares of Broadway Federal Bank (BFB), a federal savings bank.



WHEREAS, Cathay, BFC and BFB have entered into that certain Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 18, 2004 (the Purchase Agreement) pursuant to which Cathay agreed to acquire, and BFC
agreed to sell to Cathay, certain shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of BFC (the Common Stock), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement;



WHEREAS, concurrently herewith BFC is delivering to Cathay 215,000 shares of
Common Stock (the Shares), as more fully described in the Purchase Agreement; and



WHEREAS, Section 2.1(d) and related provisions of the Purchase Agreement provide that BFC shall enter into this Rights Agreement for the registration of
the Shares concurrent with the execution of the Purchase Agreement;



NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree to the terms and conditions set forth below. All capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Purchase Agreement.



1.Registration Upon Request. As soon as practicable after the
written request of Cathay, and, in any event, within 90 days of such request, BFC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to file one registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 and the rules and regulations thereunder, all as amended
from time to time (collectively, the Act), covering all Shares that Cathay desires to register, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective as soon as practicable.
No other persons shall be entitled to include any securities in any registration pursuant to this Section 1 without the consent of Cathay. BFC shall not be required to effect, or to take any action to effect, more than one registration pursuant to
this Section 1. In addition, BFC shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to effect, any registration pursuant to this Section 1 if Cathay proposes to dispose of Shares that may be immediately registered on Form S-3 pursuant to a
request made pursuant to Section 3. BFC shall have the right to defer filing a registration statement under the Act pursuant to this Section 1 not more than once in any 12-month period if the Board of the Directors of BFC shall determine that it
would be seriously detrimental to BFC to file such registration statement at the date the filing would otherwise be required under this Rights Agreement, in which case BFC shall have an additional period of not more than 120 days within which to
file such registration statement. If Cathay intends to distribute the Shares covered by its request under this Section 1 by means of an underwriting, it shall so advise BFC as a part of its request made pursuant to this Section 1. The underwriter
may be selected by Cathay but shall be subject to the approval of BFC, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.



1



---

2. Incidental Registration.



(a) If (but without obligation to do so) BFC proposes to register any of its equity securities under the Act for its own
account or for the account of any security holders (other than any registration pursuant to Section 1 or Section 3, any registration of an offering to employees, consultants or other persons providing services to BFC, BFB or their subsidiaries, or
any registration on Form S-4 or a successor form, or any registration on any form which does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Shares), it shall
promptly give written notice to Cathay of its intention to do so, and if within 30 days after receipt of such notice Cathay so requests in writing, BFC shall, subject to Section 2(b), include in such registration all Shares that Cathay shall specify
in writing to BFC.



(b) In connection with any offering
involving an underwriting of shares of BFCs capital stock, BFC shall not be required under Section 2(a) to include any Shares in such underwriting unless Cathay accepts the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between BFC and the
underwriters selected by it (or by other persons entitled to select the underwriters), and then only in such quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering by BFC. If the total amount
of securities, including Shares, requested by stockholders to be included in such offering exceeds the amount of securities that the underwriters determine in their sole discretion is compatible with the success of the offering, then BFC shall be
required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Shares, which the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering (the securities so included to be apportioned pro
rata among BFC, on the one hand, and the selling stockholders, on the other hand, according to the total amount of securities entitled to be included therein owned by BFC, on the one hand, and the total amount of securities entitled to be included
therein owned by the selling stockholders, on the other hand). For purposes of the preceding parenthetical statement concerning apportionment, for any selling stockholder which is a holder of registrable securities and which is a partnership,
limited liability company or corporation, the partners, retired partners, members and stockholders of such holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing
persons shall be deemed to be a single selling stockholder, and any pro-rata reduction with respect to such selling stockholder shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all
entities and individuals included in such selling stockholder, as defined in this sentence.



3. Form S-3 Registration. On the written request of Cathay that BFC effect one registration of Shares on Form S-3, BFC shall, as soon as
practicable, use its reasonable commercial efforts to effect the registration of such Shares as specified in such request; provided, however, that BFC shall not be obligated to effect, or take any action to effect, any such registration pursuant to
this Section 3 if (i) Form S-3 is not available for such offering; (ii) the Board of the Directors of BFC shall determine that it would be seriously detrimental to BFC to file such registration statement at the date the filing would otherwise be
required under this Rights Agreement, in which case BFC shall have an additional period of not more than 120 days



2



---

within which to file such registration statement; or (iii) after BFC has effected one (1) registration pursuant to
Section 1 or this Section 3 and such registration has been ordered effective by the Commission.



4. Conditions. Registrations of Shares pursuant to Sections 1, 2 or 3 shall be subject to the following:



(a) Filing of Amendments. BFC shall promptly file such amendments and
supplements to the registration statement and the related prospectus and take such other action as may be necessary to keep the registration statement effective and to comply with the Act.



(b) Furnish Copies. BFC shall furnish to Cathay such reasonable number
of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Act, and such other documents as Cathay may reasonably request to facilitate the disposition of the Shares being registered.



(c) Blue Sky. BFC shall take such action under the securities laws of
such states of the United States as Cathay shall reasonably request; provided, however, that BFC shall not be required to qualify to do business as a foreign corporation, or to file any general consent to service of process, in any state.



(d) Underwriting. In the event of an underwritten
public offering, BFC and Cathay shall enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter.



(e) Notification. BFC shall notify Cathay at any time when a prospectus is required to be delivered under the Act of
the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in the registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing.



(f) Counsel and Accountants Opinion. BFC shall furnish, at the request of Cathay, on the date the registered Shares are delivered to the underwriters for sale through underwriters, or, if such Shares are
not being sold through underwriters, on the date that the registration statement becomes effective: (i) an opinion, dated such date, of the counsel representing BFC for the purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given
to the underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to Cathay; and (ii) a letter, dated such date, of the independent certified public accountants of BFC, in form and substance as is customarily given
by independent certified public Accountants to the underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to Cathay.



(g) Expenses. BFC shall bear the cost of all registrations, including, but not limited to, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses and
fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel and accountants for BFC (subject, however, to subsection (h) below), except that Cathay shall pay the fees, expenses and disbursements of any counsel retained by Cathay and the underwriting fees and
selling commissions applicable to Cathays Shares; provided, however, that BFC shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun



3



---

pursuant to Section 1 or Section 3 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of Cathay (in
which case Cathay shall bear such expenses), unless Cathay agrees to forfeit its registration rights under Section 1 and Section 3; provided further, however, that if at the time of such withdrawal, Cathay has learned of a material adverse change in
the condition, business, or prospects of BFC from that known to Cathay at the time of its request and has withdrawn the request with reasonable promptness following disclosure by BFC of such material adverse change, then Cathay shall not be required
to pay any of such expenses and shall retain its rights pursuant to Section 1 and Section 3.



(h) Audits. BFC shall not be required to furnish any audited financial statements at the request of Cathay other than those statements customarily prepared at the end of its fiscal year, unless (i) Cathay shall
agree to reimburse BFC for the out-of-pocket costs incurred by BFC in the preparation of such other audited financial statements, or (ii) such other audited financial statements are required by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission
(the Commission) as a condition to ordering a registration statement effective under the Act.



(i) Indemnification.



(1) To the extent permitted by law, BFC shall indemnify and hold harmless Cathay, each of its directors and officers, any underwriter (as defined in the
Act) and each person who under the Act is deemed a controlling person of Cathay or underwriter, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) to which Cathay, underwriter or controlling person may become subject
under the Act, the Exchange Act or applicable state securities laws or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or
violations (collectively a Violation): (i) any untrue or allegedly untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement, any related prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment or
supplement to the registration statement or any prospectus or preliminary prospectus or (ii) upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, and shall reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Cathay, its directors and officers, underwriter or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or
action; provided, however, that BFC shall not be liable to Cathay, its directors and officers, underwriter or controlling person for any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions to the extent the same shall arise out of or be based upon any
such untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by Cathay, its directors and officers, underwriter or controlling person seeking indemnification hereunder to BFC for use in the
registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, amendment or supplement.



(2) Cathay shall indemnify and hold harmless BFC, each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration statement, any underwriters, and its controlling persons against any such losses, claims,
damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto), to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject, under the Act, the Exchange Act or applicable state securities laws, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, and shall reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any of the foregoing persons in connection with investigating or



4



---

defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent)
that such Violation shall arise out of or be based upon any untrue or allegedly untrue statement, or any omission or alleged omission, made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by Cathay to BFC for use in the
registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, amendment or supplement; provided, that the liability under this Section 4(i)(2) of Cathay shall not exceed Cathays gross proceeds from the offering, except in the case of willful
fraud by Cathay.



(3) Each party entitled to indemnification
hereunder (the Indemnified Party) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the Indemnifying Party) promptly after such Indemnified Party becomes aware of any claim or
potential claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom. The Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at its own expense. No
Indemnified Party shall consent to entry of any judgment or settle such claim or litigation without the prior, written consent of the Indemnifying Party.



(4) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 4(i) is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party with
respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein for reasons of public policy, the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall to the extent permitted by applicable law contribute to
the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the
other, in connection with the matters that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall be determined by a
court of law by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by the
Indemnified Party and the parties relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.



(j) Information Concerning Cathay.Cathay shall furnish to BFC such information regarding Cathay as BFC may reasonably request and as shall be
required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to herein.



(k) Same Exchange. BFC shall cause all Shares registered hereunder to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by BFC are then listed.



(l) Transfer Agent. BFC shall provide a transfer agent and registrar
for all Shares registered pursuant to this Rights Agreement and a CUSIP number for all such Shares, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration.



5. Reports Under Securities Exchange Act of 1934. With a view to making available to Cathay the benefits of Rule 144
promulgated under the Act and any other rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit a holder to sell shares to the public without registration, BFC agrees, to:



(a) use its reasonable efforts to make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in
Commission Rule 144;



5



---

(b) use its reasonable efforts to file with or submit to the Commission in a timely manner all reports
and other documents required of BFC under the Act and the 1934 Act; and



(c) furnish to Cathay promptly upon request (i) a written statement by BFC as to whether or not it has complied with the reporting requirements of Commission Rule 144, the Act and the 1934 Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or
quarterly report of BFC and such other reports and documents so filed by BFC, and (iii) such other information as may reasonably be requested in availing a shareholder of any rule or regulation of the Commission which permits the selling of any such
securities without registration.



6. Assignability of
Registration Rights. The rights to cause BFC to register the Shares may be assigned (but only with all related obligations) by Cathay one time to any purchaser of all of the Shares then held by Cathay, provided BFC is, within a reasonable time
after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned; and provided, further, that such assignment shall be
effective only if immediately following such transfer the further disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the Act.



7. Amendment. Any provision of these registration rights may be amended, and the exercise of any rights under this Rights Agreement may be waived
(either generally or in a particular instance, and either retroactively or prospectively) only with the written consent of BFC and Cathay, except that any party may waive as to itself in writing the exercise of any rights under this Rights
Agreement.



8. Expiration. Cathays rights to cause
BFC to register the Shares pursuant to this Rights Agreement shall expire at such time as Rule 144 or another similar exemption under the Securities Act is available for the sale of all of Cathays shares during a three (3)-month period without
registration.



9. Rights Granted to Subsequent Investors.Without the prior written consent of Cathay, BFC shall not enter into an agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of BFC which would allow such holder or prospective holder: (a) to include such securities in any
registration filed under Section 1, unless under the terms of such agreement, such holder or prospective holder may include such securities in any such registration only to the extent that the inclusion of his securities will not reduce the number
of Shares which are included, or (b) to make a demand registration which could result in such registration statement being declared effective prior to the date set forth in Section 1 or within one hundred eighty (180) days of the effective date of
any registration effected pursuant to Section 1.



10.
Miscellaneous.

Agreement are solely for convenience of reference and shall not affect the interpretation of this Rights Agreement.

(g) Delays or Omissions; Waiver. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power, or remedy accruing to either BFC
or Cathay upon any breach or default by the other under this Rights Agreement shall impair any such right, or remedy nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or any acquiescence therein or in any similar breach or
default thereafter occurring.



(h) Further Actions. At
any time and from time to time, each party agrees, without further consideration, to take such actions and to execute and deliver such documents as may be reasonably necessary to effectuate the purposes of this Rights Agreement.
