represent less than forty percent (40%) of its Aggregate Ownership of Common Stock on the date of this Agreement (as of immediately

that, if any Designating Person’s ownership of Common Stock increases to an amount equal to or greater than forty percent
(40%) of its Aggregate Ownership of Common Stock actually owned on the date of this Agreement (as of immediately after giving
effect to the Mergers) within ninety (90) days after the first date on which such Designating Person owns less than forty percent
(40%) of such Aggregate Ownership, the applicable Designating Person’s right to nominate one or two Directors, as applicable,
pursuant to Section 2.02(a) shall be reinstated, subject to this Section 2.02(c); provided further that,
if at any time any Designating Person that is part of the Hale Stockholder Trust Group ceases to own a number of shares that would
represent at least forty percent (40%) of its Aggregate Ownership of Common Stock on the date of this Agreement (the “Departing
Hale Trust Stockholder Group”) and the Stockholder that is part of the Hale Stockholder Trust Group and was not
a Designating Person on the date of this Agreement (the “Other Hale Trust Stockholder Group”) continues
as of such date to own a number of shares that represents at least forty percent (40%) of its Aggregate Ownership of Common Stock
on the date of this Agreement, the Other Hale Trust Stockholder Group shall immediately become a Designating Person in place of
the Departing Hale Trust Stockholder Group without application of subclauses (i)-(iii) of this Section 2.02(c) up to that
time but otherwise subject to this Section 2.02(c). 


(d)            The
Corporation agrees to use best efforts (i) to cause each individual designated pursuant to Section 2.02(a) or Section
2.03 to be elected as a Director on the Board and (ii) to take all other necessary actions (including calling a special meeting
of the Board and/or stockholders) to cause the composition of the Board to be as set forth in Section 2.02(a).




Section 2.03.        Vacancies.
If, as a result of death, disability, retirement, resignation, removal or otherwise, there shall exist or occur any vacancy
on the Board, the Stockholder entitled under Section 2.02(a) to designate such Director nominee whose death, disability,
retirement, resignation or removal resulted in such vacancy shall have the exclusive right to designate another individual to
fill such vacancy and serve as a Director (such individual, the “Replacement Nominee”). Each Replacement Nominee
elected to the Board shall hold office for a term that shall coincide with the Term to which such Replacement Nominee shall have
been elected.




Section 2.04.        Meetings.
The Corporation shall take all actions necessary to ensure that the Board shall hold regularly scheduled meetings at least
four (4) times per calendar year, which meetings shall occur approximately every ninety (90) days. The Corporation shall pay all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Director in connection with attending regular and special meetings of the Board
and any committee thereof on which such Director serves, and any such meetings of the board of directors of any Subsidiary of
the Corporation and any committee thereof on which such Director serves. The Board shall have authority to fix the compensation
and/or fees of Directors for service as a member of the Board; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, only the non-employee
Directors are permitted to receive compensation and/or fees for service as a member of the Board.

Section 2.05.        Charter
or Bylaw Provisions. The Charter and Bylaws and all similar governing documents with respect to the Subsidiaries of the Corporation
shall provide for (a) the elimination of the liability of each Director to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law
and (b) indemnification of, and advancement of expenses for, each Director for acts on behalf of the Corporation to the maximum
extent permitted by applicable law. With respect to the Lightyear Designee and the Aquiline Designee, and in addition to the foregoing,
the Corporation acknowledges that such Directors may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance
provided by the Stockholder designating such Director (and/or such Stockholder’s Affiliates) (such Stockholder and its Affiliates,
“Stockholder Indemnitors”). The Corporation hereby agrees (i) that it is the indemnitor of first resort
(i.e., its obligations to the Lightyear Designee or the Aquiline Designee are primary and any obligation of any applicable Stockholder
Indemnitor to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by the Lightyear Designee
or the Aquiline Designee are secondary), and (ii) that it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred
by each such Director, and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses and liabilities to the extent legally permitted
and as required by the terms of this Agreement and the Charter and Bylaws (and any other agreement regarding indemnification between
the Corporation and any such Director), without regard to any rights such Director may have against any applicable Stockholder
Indemnitor. The Corporation further agrees that no advancement or payment by any Stockholder Indemnitor on behalf of the Lightyear
Designee or the Aquiline Designee, as applicable, with respect to any claim for which such Director has sought indemnification
from the Corporation shall affect the foregoing and such Stockholder Indemnitor shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated
to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Lightyear Designee or the Aquiline Designee,
as applicable, against the Corporation. The Corporation agrees that the Stockholder Indemnitors are express third-party beneficiaries
of the terms of this Section 2.05.

Section 2.06.     
ERISA Matters.







(a)            Until
such time (the “VCOC End Date”) as the later of (i) when a VCOC Investor ceases to hold at least one
percent (1%) of the then outstanding Common Stock or (ii) a VCOC Investor has acquired sufficient additional “venture capital
investments” (within the meaning of Section 2510.3-101(d)(3)(i) of the Plan Asset Regulations) such that the extinguishment
of the rights set forth in this Section 2.06 will not adversely affect such VCOC Investor’s ability to qualify as
a VCOC, then Lightyear III and Aquiline and, at Lightyear’s or Aquiline’s request, as the case may be, each of their
respective Affiliates that directly or indirectly has an investment in the Corporation and is intended to qualify as a “venture
capital operating company” (a “VCOC”) as defined in the regulations issued by the U.S. Department
of Labor and codified at 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101 (the “Plan Asset Regulations”) (each of Lightyear
III, Aquiline and such Affiliate of either, a “VCOC Investor”), without prejudice to or limitation on
any of the other rights afforded to such VCOC Investor under this Agreement or any other agreement, (A) shall be provided with
financial statements of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries as soon as practicable and, in any event, within forty-five (45)
days after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters or ninety (90) days after the end of each fiscal year (to the extent
such financial statements have been completed); (B) upon reasonable advance notice to the Corporation, as the case may be, shall
be entitled to visit and inspect offices and properties of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries periodically, but not more frequently
than once per calendar quarter for each VCOC Investor (at which visits any Person who has similar rights under this Agreement
may be permitted to attend at the Corporation’s discretion); (C) upon reasonable advance notice, shall be entitled to consult
with appropriate officers and directors of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries periodically, but not more frequently than once
per calendar quarter for each VCOC Investor (at which meetings any Person who has similar rights under this Agreement may be permitted
to attend at the Corporation’s discretion), with respect to matters relating to the business and affairs of the Corporation;
and (D) in the event the Lightyear Designee or the Aquiline Designee no longer has the right to serve on the Board (or if
the Lightyear Designee or Aquiline Designee has the right to serve on the Board but the Lightyear Designee or Aquiline Designee
has not been appointed or is otherwise unable to attend a Board meeting), then either of Lightyear III or Aquiline, as the case
may be, may appoint a non-voting observer to the Board (but not to the board of directors of any Subsidiary of the Corporation)
(the rights in clauses (A) through (D) above, collectively, the “VCOC Rights”) and provide each VCOC
Investor with such other rights of consultation reasonably necessary under applicable legal authorities promulgated after the
date hereof to allow its investment in the Corporation to continue to qualify as a “venture capital investment” for
purposes of the Plan Asset Regulations. In the event that, prior to the VCOC End Date, the Corporation ceases to qualify as an
“operating company” (as defined in the first sentence of Section 2510.3-101(c)(1) of the Plan Asset Regulations) or
the investment in the Corporation by a VCOC Investor does not qualify as a “venture capital investment” as defined
in the Plan Asset Regulations, then the Corporation shall consider and discuss in good faith with Lightyear and Aquiline, as applicable,
any reasonable suggestions timely made by Lightyear or Aquiline, as applicable, that would preserve the status of each VCOC Investor
as a VCOC. In the event that a VCOC Investor is an Affiliate of Lightyear or Aquiline, the Corporation and Lightyear or Aquiline,
as applicable, agree that such Affiliate shall be a third party beneficiary for purposes of this Section 2.06 and shall
have the right, power and authority to enforce the provisions of this Section 2.06 as though such Affiliate was Party to
this Agreement.


(b)            Each
VCOC Investor agrees to hold in confidence any information provided to such party in accordance with Section 5.01 and to
promptly inform the Corporation of the circumstances set forth in Section 2.06(a)(ii) above. Each VCOC Investor acknowledges
that it may receive material non-public information about the Corporation and agrees that it is aware of and shall comply with
the federal and state securities laws that restrict any person who has material, non-public information about a company from purchasing
or selling securities of the company or from communicating such information to any other person under circumstances in which it
is reasonably foreseeable that such person is likely to purchase or sell such securities.


(c)            The
Corporation agrees that at all times it shall qualify as an “operating company” within the meaning of the first sentence
of Section 2510.3-101(c)(1) of the Plan Asset Regulations.

Section 2.07.        Board
of Directors of the Bank. The Corporation shall take such actions as are necessary or appropriate to cause the board of directors
of the Bank (the “Bank Board”) to consist of a single class of ten (10) directors. The members of the Bank
Board as of the date hereof are set forth on Exhibit D hereto. The Bank Board shall maintain an Audit Committee, Loan Committee,
Compensation & Succession Committee, Trust Committee and such other committees as it may determine. The composition of such
committees and of the full Bank Board shall at all times comply with applicable regulatory guidelines. The composition of such
committees as of the date hereof shall be as set forth on Exhibit E. Thereafter, the composition of such committees shall
be determined by the full Bank Board.


Section 2.08.        Regulatory
Compliance Upon Listing Event. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in conjunction with any Listing
Event and effective immediately prior to the consummation thereof, the Designating Persons shall cause the Board to be comprised
of Directors meeting any independence or other qualification requirements or standards imposed by the SEC or any applicable self-regulatory
organization, stock exchange, or other governmental entity. To the extent compliance therewith requires the replacement of any
Directors designated by Designating Persons, such replacements shall be apportioned such that the Directors designated by Designating
Persons that are Hale Stockholder Trust Groups, on the one hand, and the Directors designated by Designating Persons that are
Exempt Stockholders, on the other hand, have equal (or as close to equal as possible) numbers of Directors meeting applicable
independence or other qualification requirements following such Listing Event; provided that in the event that the effect of any
reconstitution required by this Section 2.08 shall be borne unequally by the Hale Stockholder Trust Groups (and Directors
designated thereby) and the Exempt Stockholders (and Directors designated thereby), the Hale Stockholder Trust Groups shall be
required to have one more Director designated by them meeting such independence or other qualification requirements or standards
than the Exempt Stockholders following such Listing Event. For example, if in order to meet applicable director independence requirements
in conjunction with a Listing Event, the Board must be comprised of at least six (6) Directors (of a total of ten (10) Directors)
meeting certain independence requirements, and at the time of preparation for such Listing Event, four (4) Directors designated
by the Exempt Stockholders do not meet such independence requirements and three (3) Directors designated by the Hale Stockholder
Trust Groups do not meet such independence requirements, two (2) of the Directors designated by the Exempt Stockholders not meeting
such independence requirements shall resign and be replaced by two (2) Directors meeting such independence requirements, and one
(1) of the Directors designated by the Hale Stockholder Trust Groups shall resign and be replaced by a Director meeting such independence
requirements. The provisions of this Section 2.08 shall also apply to any reconstitution of committees of the Board in
conjunction with a Listing Event, mutatis mutandis. Following any reconstitution of the Board required by this Section 2.08
and effective immediately after the consummation of the initial Public Offering, the rights of all Designating Persons under
Section 2.02 (and its related provisions, including Section 2.03), other than the rights of Lightyear III and Aquiline,
shall forthwith terminate.




Section 2.09.        Actions
Requiring Board Approval. The Corporation shall not authorize, take or agree to take any action requiring an approval under
Sections 3.03(i) or 3.03(j) of the Bylaws unless the applicable approval has been obtained.

(a)            Each Stockholder understands and agrees that the shares of Common Stock held by such Stockholder as of the date hereof
have not been registered under the Securities Act and are restricted securities under the Securities Act. Each Stockholder agrees
that it shall not Transfer any Securities (or solicit any offers in respect of any Transfer of any Securities), except in compliance
with the Securities Act, any other applicable securities or “blue sky” laws, any applicable regulatory policy statements,
any applicable agreement with a regulator that is entered into pursuant to any such policy statement and the terms and conditions
of this Agreement.


(b)           Any
attempt to Transfer any Securities not in compliance with this Agreement shall be null and void, and the Corporation shall not,
and shall cause any transfer agent not to, give any effect in the Corporation’s stock records to such attempted Transfer.


(c)           Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, it is acknowledged that 120,325.54168 shares of Common Stock owned by CFS as of the date hereof
are pledged to the Corporation (as successor to Strategic Growth Partners, LLC) pursuant to the CFS Pledge Agreement.


 Section 3.02.         Legends.


 




(a)            In
addition to any other legend that may be required, each certificate for Securities issued to any Stockholder shall bear a legend
in substantially the following form:


THIS
SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY NON-U.S. OR STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND
MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE THEREWITH OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION
THEREFROM.


THIS
SECURITY IS ALSO SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AS SET FORTH IN THE STOCKHOLDERS’ AGREEMENT DATED AS OF
JUNE 19, 2017, AS MAY BE AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, COPIES OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED UPON REQUEST FROM THE CORPORATION OR ANY SUCCESSOR
THERETO, AND THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE THEREWITH. NO PERSON

AND UNTIL SUCH PERSON BECOMES A PARTY TO THE STOCKHOLDERS’ AGREEMENT.


(b)           If
any Securities shall be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement filed with the SEC or sold pursuant to Rule 144,
the Corporation, upon the written request of the holder thereof, shall promptly issue to such holder of such Securities a new
certificate evidencing such Securities without the first sentence of the legend required by Section 3.02(a) endorsed thereon.
If any Securities cease to be subject to the restrictions on Transfer set forth in this Agreement, the Corporation, upon the written
request of the holder thereof, shall promptly issue to such holder a new certificate evidencing such Securities without the second
sentence of the legend required by Section 3.02(a) endorsed thereon.

Section 3.03.        Permitted
Transferees. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (but in any event subject to Section 3.05),
any Stockholder may at any time Transfer any or all of its Securities to one or more of its Permitted Transferees without the
consent of the Corporation or any other Stockholder and without compliance with Section 3.04, Section 4.01, and
Section 4.03 so long as (a) the Permitted Transferee (other than as described in clause (h) of the definition thereof)
shall have agreed in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement by executing a Joinder, and (b) the Transfer is in compliance
with the Securities Act and any other applicable securities or “blue sky” laws. If a Permitted Transferee is an Affiliate
of, or a trust for the exclusive benefit of certain persons related to, a Stockholder but following the Transfer of Securities
by such Stockholder such Permitted Transferee is to cease to be an Affiliate of, or such trust is to cease to be for the exclusive
benefit of such persons related to, such Stockholder, as the case may be, such Permitted Transferee shall immediately prior to
ceasing to be an Affiliate of such Stockholder, or such trust shall immediately prior to ceasing to be for the exclusive benefit
of such persons, as the case may be, Transfer such Securities back to such Stockholder.

any time (i) in a Transfer in compliance with Section 4.01 or Section 4.03, or (ii) in a Public Offering pursuant

Agreement by executing a Joinder;


(b)           at
any time following the initial Public Offering (subject to Section 4.01, but only if Section 4.01(g) is applicable
thereto).




Section 3.05.        Number
of Stockholders. At any time prior to the initial Public Offering or prior to the Corporation otherwise becoming subject to
the periodic reporting obligations of the Exchange Act, the Corporation may refuse to register any transfer of shares of Common

or more than 450 “accredited investors” (as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act).
If the Corporation becomes aware that any class or series of Common Stock becomes held of record by more than 1,900 holders or
more than 400 “accredited investors” (as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act),
the Corporation will notify all Stockholders of such fact.


 


Section 3.06.        Joinder.

purchase shares of Common Stock from the Stockholders in accordance with this Section 4.01 (the “Tag-Along
Offer”).

From
the date of its receipt of the Tag-Along Notice, each Stockholder (other than the Tag-Along Seller) shall have the right (a “Tag-Along
Right”), exercisable by notice (the “Tag-Along Response Notice”) given to the Tag-Along
Seller within ten (10) Business Days after its receipt of the Tag-Along Notice (the “Tag-Along Notice Period”),
to request that the Tag-Along Seller include in the proposed Transfer all or a portion of the Common Stock held by such Tagging
Person; provided that (a) if the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be Transferred by the Tag-Along Seller and
the Tagging Persons exceeds the Maximum Number, then the Tag-Along Seller and each Tagging Person will have the right to Transfer
a number of shares of Common Stock determined as follows: (i) first, each Stockholder proposing to participate in such Tag-Along
Sale will be allocated for sale a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the lesser of the number of shares of Common Stock
such Stockholder has proposed to sell and the product of the Maximum Number times the Pro Rata Portion applicable to such Stockholder
relative to all Stockholders who are validly proposing to Transfer shares of Common Stock in such Tag-Along Sale (the “First
Sale Allocation”), (ii) second, if following the First Sale Allocation the Maximum Number of shares of Common Stock
has not been allocated and any of the Tag-Along Seller or Tagging Persons have proposed to sell more shares of Common Stock than
have been allocated to them in the First Sale Allocation, the remaining shares of Common Stock will be allocated amongst such
remaining Stockholders on the same basis as the First Sale Allocation mutatis mutandis and (iii) the process described
in the immediately preceding clause (ii) will be repeated until the Maximum Number of shares of Common Stock has been allocated,
and (b) if the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be Transferred by the Tag-Along Seller and the Tagging Persons is
less than the Minimum Number, then no Transfer will occur pursuant to the relevant Tag-Along Offer. Each Tag-Along Response Notice
shall include wire transfer or other instructions for payment or delivery of the purchase price for the Common Stock to be sold
in such Tag-Along Sale. Each Tagging Person shall deliver to the Tag-Along Seller, with its Tag-Along Response Notice, the certificates
representing the shares of Common Stock of such Tagging Person to be included in the Tag-Along Sale, together with a limited power-of-attorney
in customary form authorizing the Tag-Along Seller to Transfer such shares of Common Stock on the terms set forth in the Tag-Along
Notice. Delivery of the Tag-Along Response Notice with such certificates and limited power-of-attorney shall constitute an irrevocable
acceptance of the Tag-Along Offer by such Tagging Persons, subject to the provisions of this Section 4.01 and Section
4.02. The Tag-Along Seller shall hold such certificates representing the shares of Common Stock of such Tagging Person(s)
to be included in the Tag-Along Sale in escrow, pending the consummation of such Tag-Along Sale or return of such certificates
to the Tagging Persons in accordance with the next succeeding paragraph.


If,
at the end of a 90-day period after such delivery of such Tag-Along Notice (which 90-day period shall be extended if any of the
transactions contemplated by the Tag-Along Offer are subject to Regulatory Consents until the earlier of (a) the expiration of
five (5) Business Days after all such Regulatory Consents have been received or satisfied and (b) the permanent denial of any
such Regulatory Consent, but in no event later than one hundred and fifty (150) days following delivery of the Tag-Along Notice
by the Tag-Along Seller), the Tag-Along Seller has not completed the Transfer of all shares of Common Stock to be sold by the
Tag-Along Seller and all Tagging Persons at the same price and on substantially the same other terms and conditions set forth
in the Tag-Along Notice, (i) the Tag-Along Seller shall return to each Tagging Person the limited power-of-attorney and all certificates
representing the shares of Common Stock that such Tagging Person delivered for Transfer pursuant to this Section 4.01(a)
and any other documents in the possession of the Tag-Along Seller executed by the Tagging Persons in connection with the proposed
Tag-Along Sale, and (ii) all the restrictions on Transfer contained in this Agreement or otherwise applicable at such time with
respect to such shares of Common Stock shall continue in effect.



    	20



    	 



    



(b)           The
Tag-Along Seller shall Transfer, on behalf of itself and each Tagging Person, the Common Stock subject to the Tag-Along Offer
and elected to be Transferred at the same price and on substantially the terms and conditions set forth in the Tag-Along Notice
within ninety (90) days (or such longer period as extended under Section 4.01(a)) of delivery of the Tag-Along Notice.
Concurrently with the consummation of the Tag-Along Sale, the Tag-Along Seller shall (i) notify the Tagging Persons thereof, (ii)
direct the proposed transferee in such Tag-Along Sale to deliver the applicable portion of the purchase price directly to each
Tagging Person for the shares of Common Stock of such Tagging Person Transferred pursuant to the Tag-Along Sale in accordance
with the wire transfer or other instructions for payment or delivery set forth in the applicable Tag-Along Response Notices and
(iii) promptly after the consummation of such Tag-Along Sale, furnish such other evidence of the completion and the date of completion
of such transfer and the terms thereof as may be reasonably requested by the Tagging Persons. The transferee in such Tag-Along
Sale must become a party to this Agreement if it is not already a party by executing a Joinder.


(c)            If at the termination of the Tag-Along Notice Period any Stockholder shall not have elected to participate in the Tag-Along
Sale, such Stockholder shall be deemed to have waived its rights under Section 4.01(a) with respect to the Transfer of
its shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Tag-Along Sale.


(d)           Notwithstanding
anything contained in this Section 4.01, there shall be no liability on the part of the Tag-Along Seller to the Tagging
Persons (other than the obligation to return any certificates evidencing shares of Common Stock, limited powers-of-attorney and
other documents received by the Tag-Along Seller) or any other Person if the Transfer of shares of Common Stock pursuant to this
Section 4.01 is not consummated for whatever reason. Whether to effect a Transfer of shares of Common Stock pursuant to
this Section 4.01 by the Tag-Along Seller is in the sole and absolute discretion of the Tag-Along Seller; provided,
however, that for the avoidance of doubt, the Tag-Along Seller may not sell any of its shares of Common Stock in a Tag-Along
Sale unless the proposed transferee buys the applicable shares of Common Stock of the Tagging Persons in accordance with this
Section 4.01.


(e)            If
the Tag-Along Seller (or group in which such Tag-Along Seller is a participant) is proposing to sell a number of shares of Common
Stock owned by it that constitutes more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Tag-Along Seller
may provide the proposed transferee in a Tag-Along Sale reasonable access to the books, records and properties of the Corporation
and its Subsidiaries, subject to such transferee executing customary confidentiality agreements in favor of, and in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to, the Corporation; provided that, if the proposed transferee is a Competitor, the proposed transferee
may not receive or otherwise have access to any Confidential Information regarding the business prospects (including without limitation
projections) or strategies of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries without the prior approval of the Board.


(f)            The
provisions of this Section 4.01 shall not apply to any proposed Transfer of any shares of Common Stock by the Tag-Along
Seller (i) in a Public Offering pursuant to the exercise of rights under an applicable registration rights agreement, (ii) to
a Permitted Transferee pursuant to Section 3.03, (iii) pursuant to a sale under Rule 144 following a Public Offering (subject
to Section 4.01(g) below), or (iv) of less than three percent (3%) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock over any twelve
(12) month period.


(g)             Following
an initial Public Offering, the provisions of this Section 4.01 shall apply only to the extent that a Tag-Along Sale constitutes
(or is occurring as a part of) a Change of Control; provided that for purposes of this Section 4.01(g), references to “fifty
percent (50%)” in the definition of Change of Control shall be replaced with “thirty percent (30%)”.



    	21



    	 



    





Section 4.02.       Additional
Conditions to Tag-Along Sales. Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 4.01, the rights and obligations of the
Stockholders to participate in a Tag-Along Sale under Section 4.01 are subject to the following conditions:







(a)            upon
the consummation of such Tag-Along Sale, all of the Stockholders participating therein will receive the same amount of consideration
per share;


(b)            no
Stockholder other than the proposed Tag-Along Seller shall be obligated to pay any fees or expenses (other than their own) incurred
in connection with any consummated or unconsummated Tag-Along Sale, provided that each Tagging Person shall be obligated
to pay its pro rata share (based on the number of shares of Common Stock Transferred) of the reasonable and customary expenses
incurred in connection with a consummated Tag-Along Sale to the extent such expenses are incurred for the benefit of all Stockholders
and are not otherwise paid by the Corporation or the proposed transferee;


(c)            each
Tagging Person shall (i) make such customary representations, warranties and covenants as the Tag-Along Seller may reasonably
request with respect to record and beneficial ownership of such securities and the authority, power and right to enter into and
consummate the Transfer without contravention of any law or agreement and similar matters, in which case (A) liability shall be
several and not joint, (B) each Tagging Person shall be liable only with respect to the matters related to such Stockholder, and
(C) such representations, warranties and covenants shall be substantially identical to those of the Tag-Along Seller and (ii)
be required to bear its pro rata share (based on the proceeds from such Transfer) of any escrows, holdbacks or adjustments in
purchase price; provided that no Tagging Person shall be obligated in connection with such a Transfer to agree to indemnify
or hold harmless the transferee with respect to an amount in excess of the proceeds paid to such Tagging Person in connection
with such Transfer; and


(d)           
it is understood and agreed that a Tag-Along Seller may enter into an agreement to effect a Tag-Along Sale in advance of
the actual transfer of shares of Common Stock but subject to compliance with Section 4.01 and the entry into such agreement
will not be considered a Transfer for purposes of this Agreement.


Section
4.03.        Right
of First Refusal.


(a)            If
at any time prior to the initial Public Offering a Stockholder (the “Selling Stockholder”) desires to
sell all or any Securities to a Third Party in one or a series of related Transfers otherwise permitted by Article 3 and the Selling
Stockholder receives from or otherwise negotiates with a Third Party a bona fide offer (an “Offer”)
for the Transfer of such Securities, the Selling Stockholder shall provide the Corporation with written notice of such Offer (the
“Offer Notice”), identifying the Third Party making the Offer, the number and character of the Securities
proposed to be Transferred (the “Offered Securities”), the price at which the proposed Transfer is to
be made (the “Offer Price”) and the other material terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer; provided
that this Section 4.03 shall not apply to one or a series of Transfers of Securities by a Selling Stockholder (x) that
are approved by the Corporation and (y) in which the aggregate value of the Securities to be Transferred, together with all other
Securities Transferred by such Selling Stockholder in the one year period preceding the Transfer that were undertaken pursuant
to this proviso, do not exceed $250,000. The Corporation shall provide a copy of the Offer Notice to each Stockholder within three
(3) Business Days of receiving the Offer Notice from the Selling Stockholder. Nothing in this Section 4.03 shall be deemed
to waive, diminish or otherwise limit the restrictions imposed under Article 3.



    	22



    	 



    



(b)           Upon
receipt of the Offer Notice, each Stockholder shall have the option to purchase at the Offer Price and on the other terms specified
in the Offer Notice such Stockholder’s Pro Rata Portion of the Offered Securities and, in addition, submit a binding written
offer to purchase at the Offer Price and on the other terms specified in the Offer Notice additional Offered Securities in excess
of such Stockholders’ Pro Rata Portion, but only if, in either case, (i) such purchase would not cause the beneficial ownership
of any Stockholder, together with its Affiliates, to exceed such Stockholder’s Ownership Limit and (ii) the requirements
of clause (d) below are satisfied. Each Stockholder exercising its rights pursuant to this Section 4.03(b) shall, within
thirty (30) days from receipt of the Offer Notice by the Corporation (the “Offer Period”), (A) indicate
to the Selling Stockholder whether it has accepted the Offer to purchase its respective Pro Rata Portion of the Offered Securities
by sending irrevocable written notice of such acceptance (a “Stockholder Acceptance Notice”) to the
Selling Stockholder, which shall promptly provide written notice to the Corporation of the number of Offered Securities specified
in such Stockholder Acceptance Notice, and (B) indicate to the Selling Stockholder the number of Securities, if any, that such
Stockholder offers to purchase in excess of the number of Securities specified in its Stockholder Acceptance Notice (but only
to the extent it would not cause such Stockholder to exceed its Ownership Limit) by sending irrevocable written notice of such
offer (“Stockholder Additional Purchase Offer”) to the Selling Stockholder, which shall promptly provide
written notice to the Corporation of the number of Offered Securities specified in such Stockholder Additional Purchase Offer.
The failure of any Stockholder to deliver a Stockholder Acceptance Notice or a Stockholder Additional Purchase Offer within the
Offer Period shall be deemed to be a waiver of such Stockholder’s rights under this Section 4.03 with respect to
such sale. If the number of Offered Securities proposed to be purchased by the Stockholders delivering proper notices exceeds
the number of Offered Securities, the Offered Securities shall be allocated among such Stockholders in accordance with the last
sentence of Section 4.04(a) mutatis mutandis.


(c)            If
at the end of the Offer Period, the number of Securities specified in all Stockholder Acceptance Notices and all Stockholder Additional
Purchase Offers (the “Claimed Securities”) is less than the total number of Offered Securities (such
difference in the number of Claimed Securities and the total number of Offered Securities, the “Unclaimed Securities”),
then the Corporation, in its reasonable discretion, may designate other Persons (not affiliated with any Stockholder) to purchase
the Unclaimed Securities or may purchase the Offered Securities itself; provided that any such purchases would not cause
the beneficial ownership of any Stockholder, together with its Affiliates, to exceed such Stockholder’s Ownership Limit;
provided further that, to the extent necessary to avoid any such purchase by the Corporation resulting in such an exceedance,
the Corporation may reduce the number of Offered Securities set forth in one or more Stockholder Additional Purchase Offers.


(d)           Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no Stockholder or other Person may purchase any Offered Securities pursuant to subsections (b) and (c) above unless
all (but not less than all) of the Offered Securities are purchased in purchases pursuant to subsections (b) and (c) above.



    	23



    	 



    



(e)           The
consummation of any purchase and sale to the Corporation, any Stockholder or any other Person pursuant to this Section 4.03
shall take place on such date, not later than thirty (30) days after the expiration of the Offer Period pursuant to this Section
4.03 with respect to such offer, as the parties shall mutually select. Prior to the date selected, the Corporation, each Stockholder,
and any other Person, as applicable, shall execute an agreement in form and substance mutually agreed upon by the parties and
on the terms specified in the Offer Notice. Upon the consummation of any such purchase and sale, the Selling Stockholder shall
transfer to the Corporation, Stockholder, and/or other Person, as applicable, the Offered Securities with instruments of transfer
duly executed by the Selling Stockholder free and clear of any liens (other than liens arising under applicable securities laws
and liens arising under this Agreement or under an applicable registration rights agreement), against delivery of the Offer Price,
payable in cash.


(f)            If the Offer Notice has been duly given pursuant to this Section 4.03 and not all of the Offered Securities are
being purchased in purchases pursuant to subsections (b) and (c) above, then the Selling Stockholder shall have the right, for
a period of ninety (90) days (which 90-day period shall be extended if any of the transactions contemplated by the Offer are subject
to Regulatory Consents until the earlier of (a) the expiration of five (5) Business Days after all such Regulatory Consents have
been received or satisfied and (b) the permanent denial of any such Regulatory Consent, but in no event later than one hundred
and fifty (150) days following delivery of the Offer Notice by the Selling Stockholder) from the expiration of the Offer Period
with respect to such Offer Notice, to sell to the Third Party all (but not less than all) of the Offered Securities. The Selling
Stockholder may not sell to the Third Party less than all of the Offered Securities offered to the Stockholders and the Corporation
pursuant to its rights under this Section 4.03 without again complying with the procedures set forth in this Section
4.03.


(g)           Any Third Party that purchases shares of Common Stock following compliance with this Section 4.03 must become a
party to this Agreement if it is not already a party by executing and delivering a Joinder.


(h)           In
connection with any sale that is subject to this Section 4.03, if the Selling Stockholder (or group of Selling Stockholders)
proposes to sell a number of shares of Common Stock that constitutes more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of
Common Stock, the Selling Stockholder may provide the Third Party reasonable access to the books, records and properties of the
Corporation and its Subsidiaries subject to such Third Party executing customary confidentiality agreements in favor of, and in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to, the Corporation; provided that, if the Third Party is a Competitor, the
Third Party may not receive or otherwise have access to any Confidential Information regarding the business prospects (including
without limitation projections) or strategies of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries without the prior approval of the
Board.


(i)            It
is understood and agreed that a Selling Stockholder may enter into an agreement to effect a sale in advance of the actual Transfer
of Common Stock but subject to compliance with this Section 4.03, and the entry into such agreement will not be considered
a Transfer for purposes of this Agreement.



    	24



    	 



    



(j)            Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if Supermajority Board Approval is obtained, then the Selling Stockholder may consummate the proposed Transfer
of such Securities prior to complying with the provisions of this Section 4.03, but subject to the transferee complying
with such provisions promptly thereafter by offering each of the other Stockholders the opportunity to purchase its applicable
portion of the Securities Transferred to such transferee, with such offer being made substantially on the terms of this Section
4.03 except that the offer occurs after the Transfer rather than before and the offered terms are those on which the transferee
acquired the applicable Securities. Notwithstanding Section 4.01, any sale by any transferee under this Section 4.03(j),
(i) will not require compliance with Section 4.01 in advance of such sale (it being understood that nothing in this Section
4.03(j) will relieve the original transferor from complying with Section 4.01 if applicable to such Transfer but rather
will permit such transferor to instead comply after such sale in a manner reasonably designed to achieve the intent of Section
4.01) and (ii) will be disregarded for purposes of Section 4.01(f)(iv).


(k)           For
the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4.03 shall not apply to (i) any Transfer after the initial Public Offering or (ii)
the Transfer of Securities in the initial Public Offering pursuant to the exercise of rights under an applicable registration
rights agreement.


Section
4.04.      Preemptive
Rights.


(a)            Prior
to the initial Public Offering, each Significant Stockholder and each Substantial Stockholder (each, an “Eligible
Stockholder”) shall have the right, subject to this Section 4.04(a) and Section 4.04(f), to purchase,
on the terms and conditions set forth herein, such Eligible Stockholder’s Pro Rata Portion (relative to all Stockholders
as determined immediately prior to the issuance) of (i) any Securities, or (ii) any Subsidiary Securities, in each case that the
Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation may propose to issue (each of (i) and (ii), the “Preemption Securities”).
In addition, the parties acknowledge that certain of the Eligible Stockholders may desire to purchase more than their Pro Rata
Portion of the Preemption Securities specified in the Issuance Notice and, accordingly, each such Eligible Stockholder shall be
provided with the opportunity to purchase Preemption Securities in excess of such Eligible Stockholder’s Pro Rata Portion
of the Preemption Securities as set forth below, provided that in no event shall any such Eligible Stockholder be permitted
to purchase an amount of Securities that would cause such Eligible Stockholder (together with its Affiliates) to exceed its Ownership
Limit. If there is an insufficient amount of Preemption Securities to satisfy the aggregate amount of Preemption Securities desired
to be purchased by all such Eligible Stockholders in excess of their respective Pro Rata Portion of the Preemption Securities,
then Each Eligible Stockholder desiring to purchase Preemption Securities will have the right to purchase Preemption Securities
as follows: (i) first, each Eligible Stockholder desiring to purchase Preemption Securities will be allocated for purchase a number
of Preemption Securities equal to the lesser of the number of Preemption Securities such Stockholder has requested to purchase
and such Stockholder’s Pro Rata Portion relative to all such Eligible Stockholders desiring to purchase Preemption Securities
(the “First Preemptive Allocation”), (ii) second, if following the First Preemptive Allocation the full
amount of Preemption Securities proposed to be issued has not been allocated and any of the Eligible Stockholders have requested
to purchase more than their relative Pro Rata Portion of the Preemption Securities, the remaining available Preemption Securities
will be allocated amongst such Eligible Stockholders on the same basis as the First Preemptive Allocation mutatis mutandis
(including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Pro Rata Portion being calculated relative to the Eligible Stockholders participating
in this round), and (iii) third, the process described in the immediately preceding clause (ii) will be repeated until all of
the Preemption Securities have been allocated; provided that no Eligible Stockholder will be entitled to purchase Preemption
Securities to the extent it would cause such Eligible Stockholder to exceed its Ownership Limit.



    	25



    	 



    



(b)           The
Corporation shall give each Eligible Stockholder notice (an “Issuance Notice”) of any proposed issuance
or sale by the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation, as applicable, of any Preemption Securities at least thirty (30)
days prior to the proposed issuance or sale date. The Issuance Notice shall specify the price at which such Preemption Securities
are to be issued or sold and the other material terms of the issuance. Subject to Section 4.04(a) and 4.04(f), each
Eligible Stockholder shall be entitled to purchase up to such Eligible Stockholder’s Pro Rata Portion (relative to all Stockholders
as determined immediately prior to the issuance) of the Preemption Securities proposed to be issued or sold, at the price and
on the terms specified in the Issuance Notice.


(c)          
Each Eligible Stockholder who desires to purchase any or all of or more than its Pro Rata Portion of the Preemption Securities
specified in the Issuance Notice shall deliver written notice to the Corporation (each, an “Exercise Notice”)
of its election to purchase such Preemption Securities within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the Issuance Notice. The Exercise
Notice shall specify the number (or amount) of Preemption Securities to be purchased by such Eligible Stockholder and shall constitute
exercise by such Eligible Stockholder of its rights under this Section 4.04 and a binding agreement of such Eligible Stockholder
to purchase, at the price and on the terms and conditions specified in the Issuance Notice, the number of shares (or amount) of
Preemption Securities specified in the Exercise Notice (or such lesser amount as is allocated to such Eligible Stockholder pursuant
to this Section 4.04). If, at the termination of such ten (10) Business Day period, any Eligible Stockholder shall not
have delivered an Exercise Notice to the Corporation, such Eligible Stockholder shall be deemed to have waived all of its rights
under this Section 4.04 with respect to the purchase of such Preemption Securities. Promptly following the termination
of such ten (10) Business Day period, the Corporation shall deliver to each Eligible Stockholder a copy of all Exercise Notices
it received.


(d)         
The Corporation shall have ninety (90) days from the date of the Issuance Notice to consummate the proposed issuance or
sale of any or all of such Preemption Securities that the Eligible Stockholders have not elected to purchase at the price and
upon terms and conditions specified in the Issuance Notice, provided that, if such issuance is subject to Regulatory Consents,
such ninety (90) day period shall be extended until the expiration of five (5) Business Days after all such Regulatory Consents
have been received or satisfied (or the permanent denial of any such Regulatory Consent), but in no event later than one hundred
and eighty (180) days from the date of the Issuance Notice. If the Corporation proposes to issue or sell any such Preemption Securities
after such ninety (90) day (or extended period, as the case may be) period, it shall again comply with the procedures set forth
in this Section 4.04.


(e)          
At the consummation of the issuance or sale of such Preemption Securities, the Corporation shall issue certificates or
instruments representing the Preemption Securities to be purchased by each Eligible Stockholder exercising preemptive rights pursuant
to this Section 4.04 registered in the name of such Eligible Stockholder, promptly following payment by such Eligible Stockholder
of the purchase price for such Preemption Securities in accordance with the terms and conditions as specified in the Issuance
Notice.



    	26



    	 



    



(f)           
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Eligible Stockholder shall be entitled to purchase Preemption Securities as contemplated
by this Section 4.04 in connection with issuances or sales of Preemption Securities (i) to employees, officers, directors
or consultants of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries (A) pursuant to employee benefit plans or compensatory arrangements
approved by the Board and (to the extent required) the Stockholders as set forth herein and/or (B) in the case of directors, as
“qualifying equity interests” as contemplated by 12 C.F.R. 7.2005 (or any equivalent state law or regulation) and
other issuances; provided that such issuances under this sub-clause (B) do not exceed $100,000 in the aggregate for any
given director, (ii) to debt financing sources (in their capacity as such) in connection with any bona fide, arm’s-length
restructuring of outstanding debt of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries approved by the Board or the board of directors
of such Subsidiary, (iii) in connection with the exercise or conversion of outstanding Securities or Subsidiary Securities or
any interest payment, dividend or distribution in respect of outstanding Securities or Subsidiary Securities, (iv) as consideration
in connection with any bona fide, arm’s-length direct or indirect merger, acquisition or similar transaction, (v) in the
case of debt securities issued by the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries (that is not a Security or Subsidiary Security) pursuant
to a bona fide underwritten public offering, (vi) pursuant to a written requirement to raise additional capital issued by the
Federal Reserve or any other Regulatory Authority or (vii) any sale by a CFS Pledgee of any CFS Pledged Shares. No Eligible Stockholder
shall be entitled to purchase Preemption Securities to the extent that such purchase would cause such Eligible Stockholder to
be in breach of its obligation under Section 5.05 and/or Section 6.19. Neither the Corporation nor any of its Subsidiaries
shall be obligated to consummate any proposed issuance or sale of Preemption Securities, nor be liable to any Eligible Stockholder,
if it has not consummated any proposed issuance or sale of Preemption Securities pursuant to this Section 4.04 for whatever
reason, regardless of whether it shall have delivered an Issuance Notice or received any Exercise Notices in respect of such proposed
issuance. 


(g)            Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if at least two-thirds (2/3) of the entire Board determines that the Corporation or a Subsidiary of the Corporation
must issue Securities or Subsidiary Securities on an expedited basis, then the Corporation may consummate the proposed issuance
or sale of such securities and then comply with the provisions of this Section 4.04; provided that the purchaser
of such securities has consented in writing to the issuance of Preemption Securities in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 4.04.


(h)            The
provisions of this Section 4.04 shall terminate immediately prior to the consummation of the initial Public Offering.


(i)             Any
Eligible Stockholder shall be entitled to assign all or a portion of its rights under this Section 4.04 to an Affiliate
subject to the terms and conditions that would be applicable to such Affiliate if such assignment were a transfer to it under
Section 3.03.

Section
5.01.        Confidentiality.


(a)           Each
Stockholder agrees that Confidential Information furnished and to be furnished to it has been and may in the future be made available
in connection with such Stockholder’s investment in the Corporation. Each Stockholder agrees that it shall use, and that
it shall cause any Person to whom Confidential Information is disclosed pursuant to clause (i) below to use, the Confidential

competitively the Corporation, any of its Affiliates or any other Stockholder). Each Stockholder further acknowledges and agrees
that it shall not disclose any Confidential Information to any Person, except that Confidential Information may be disclosed:

such Stockholder’s Representatives (as defined below) in the normal course of the performance of their duties or to any
financial institution providing credit to such Stockholder or to any investor or potential investor of such Stockholder or its

requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process to which a Stockholder is subject,
provided that such Stockholder agrees to give the Corporation prompt notice of such request(s), to the extent practicable,
so that the Corporation may seek an appropriate protective order or similar relief (and the Stockholder shall cooperate with such
efforts by the Corporation, and shall in any event make only the minimum disclosure required by such law, rule or regulation));


(iii)           in accordance with Section 4.01(e) or Section 4.03(h); provided that such Stockholder shall be responsible

developed by such Stockholder without violating any confidentiality agreement with, or other obligation of secrecy to, the Corporation
(and, in the case of any employee of the Corporation or any Subsidiary, not in connection with their duties as an employee).

annual operating budget, accompanied by an audit report of the Corporation’s independent auditors; and


(c)           promptly

obligations thereunder.

of “Control.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither the Corporation (on behalf of
itself and its Subsidiaries) nor any Stockholder (other than any Hale Stockholder) shall take any action, including the exercise
of any right granted under this Agreement, that would cause the ownership of voting Securities of any Stockholder (other than
any Hale Stockholder) or any other Person (together with the ownership by such Stockholder’s or other Person’s “affiliates”
(as such term is used under the BHC Act) of voting Securities) to increase to an amount that would constitute “control”
under the BHC Act or HOLA, or otherwise cause any Stockholder (other than any Hale Stockholder) to “control” the Corporation
or any of its Subsidiaries under and for purposes of the BHC Act or HOLA; provided that the foregoing shall not prevent any Hale
Stockholder from taking any action otherwise prohibited by this Section 5.05 if the taking of such action would not cause
(x) any Stockholder (other than any Hale Stockholder) to increase such Stockholder’s ownership of voting Securities to an
amount that would constitute “control” or (y) any Stockholder (other than any Hale Stockholder) to “control”
the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries.


Section 5.06.        Insurance.
The Corporation shall purchase and maintain customary directors and officers insurance, in such amounts as shall be approved

holding a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.


(b)           The
Corporation shall obtain from each officer and key employee of the Corporation (or any Subsidiary of the Corporation) receiving
an incentive or performance award from the Corporation whether in the form of incentive equity (whether in the form of stock options,
restricted stock or otherwise) or otherwise, as a condition to such award, an agreement to be bound by non-solicitation (relating
to independent contractors, employees, customers, clients and suppliers of the Corporation and its subsidiaries), intellectual
property/assignment of inventions and confidentiality covenants in a form approved by the Board.


Section
5.08.      U.S.
Real Property Interest Matters.



    	31



    	 



    



(a)           As
and when requested by a Significant Stockholder, the Corporation shall provide reasonable assistance in connection with determinations
by such Significant Stockholder of whether the Common Stock that such Significant Stockholder holds or has held constitutes a
United States real property interest under Section 897 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
The Corporation shall timely and duly comply with the notice requirement to the Internal Revenue Service described in Treasury
Regulation Section 1.897-2(h)(2).


(b)           From
and after the date hereof, the Corporation agrees to maintain at all times its status as an association taxable as a corporation
for U.S. federal income tax purposes.


(c)            The
Corporation shall, prior to making a distribution to the Significant Stockholders, based on the information that is reasonably
available to the Corporation at the time, calculate the percentage of the dividend distribution that is expected to be out of
the Corporation’s earnings and profits, including current or accumulated earnings and profits, and therefore constitutes
a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes pursuant to Section 301(c)(1) of the Code. If any amount of the distribution is
reasonably expected to be in excess of the Corporation’s earnings and profits, including current or accumulated earnings
and profits, the Corporation will notify the Significant Stockholders, and if requested by any Significant Stockholder, at such
Significant Stockholder’s expense, consult with a nationally recognized accounting firm to determine whether the stock in
the Corporation is a “United States real property interest” (a “USRPI”) for purposes of
Section 897 of the Code, and, if based on such consultation, the Corporation’s stock is reasonably expected to be a USRPI,
the Corporation will notify the such Significant Stockholder of its conclusion at least thirty (30) days prior to making the distribution
(and shall update such information, if applicable, on the date such distribution is made and as soon as practicable after the
Corporation’s tax year end). If it is determined that the interest in the Corporation is not a USRPI, the Corporation shall
provide such Significant Stockholder with a properly executed statement from the Corporation that meets the requirements of Treasury
Regulations Sections 1.1445-2(c)(3) and 1.897-2(h)(1) or notify such Significant Stockholder of its inability to provide such
a certificate and the basis for such inability. If such a certificate cannot be provided, the Corporation shall cooperate with
such Significant Stockholder in good faith to determine the percentage of the dividend distribution that is in excess of such
Significant Stockholder’s adjusted basis in the Common Stock of the Corporation.


(d)           The
Corporation will not distribute a USRPI to any Significant Stockholder without such Significant Stockholder’s prior written
consent.

In addition, any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement that would adversely affect the rights of any Stockholder
in a manner that is adverse relative to the treatment of any other Stockholder shall also require the prior written consent of
such Stockholder; provided that any amendment or waiver to Section 4.04 shall require the written consent of each Eligible
Stockholder, regardless of the relative effect of such amendment as compared to other Stockholders; provided, further, that any
amendment or waiver to Section 2.01, 2.02, 2.03, 2.05, 2.06, 2.08, 5.05, 6.01,

Section 6.02.       Waiver.
Any Party may waive any provision of this Agreement with respect to itself by an instrument in writing executed by the Party
against whom the waiver is to be effective. Except where a specific period for action or inaction is provided herein, neither
the failure nor any delay on the part of any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate
as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of any Party of any such right, power or privilege, nor any single or partial
exercise of any such right, power or privilege, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such
right, power or privilege. The failure of a Party to exercise any right conferred herein within the time required shall cause
such right to terminate with respect to the transaction or circumstances giving rise to such right, but not to any such right
arising as a result of any other transactions or circumstances.

Section 6.04.        Severability.

of law or public policy, all other terms and other provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect
so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially
adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced,
the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely
as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are fulfilled to the greatest
extent possible.


Section 6.05.        Entire
Agreement. This Agreement, including all Exhibits hereto, constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties and supersedes
any prior understandings, agreements or representations by, between or among the Parties, written or oral, to the extent that
they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof.

may transfer its rights hereunder in connection with a Transfer of Securities permitted under Section 3.03 and (iii) any

Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of

jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. Each Party, unless
otherwise prohibited by statute, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its assets and properties, to
the exclusive jurisdiction of any Delaware state court in New Castle County, or federal court of the United States of America,

an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such Delaware state or federal court. Each

by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Each Party, unless otherwise prohibited by statute, hereby irrevocably
consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 6.09. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect
the right of any Party to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

Stockholder (other than a Hale Stockholder) shall take, permit or allow any action that would cause such Stockholder or an Affiliate
of such Stockholder to be required to register as a bank holding company under the BHC Act or a savings and loan holding company
under HOLA with respect to the Corporation or its Subsidiaries.


(c)            Unless
approved in advance by the affected Stockholder and the Corporation, neither the Corporation nor any Stockholder shall take, permit

institution that is a direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Corporation to become a “commonly controlled insured depository
institution” (as that term is defined and interpreted for purposes of 12 U.S.C. § 1815(e), as may be amended or supplemented
from time to time, and any successor thereto) with respect to any institution that is not a direct or indirect Subsidiary of the
Corporation.

obligations, shall immediately notify the Corporation and shall cooperate in good faith with the Corporation promptly to modify
any ownership or other arrangements, or take any other action, as is necessary to cure or avoid such breach; provided that
no such modification shall require any other Stockholder to increase or decrease its ownership interest in the Corporation without

(f)            At
the request of the Corporation, each Stockholder agrees to promptly provide any such information that the Federal Reserve or any
other bank or thrift regulatory agency may request in connection with any application or other filing required to be made by the
Corporation or may otherwise reasonably request, and undertakes that such information shall be true and accurate; provided
that, in lieu of the foregoing, any Stockholder may, in its sole discretion, provide directly to the Federal Reserve or such
other regulatory agency any such information that such Stockholder deems to be proprietary or confidential in nature. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, no Stockholder shall be required to provide (i) information regarding its investors solely in
their capacities as limited partners or other similar passive equity investors (except that the Corporation may request such information
from such Stockholder to the extent required in connection with information requests from a Governmental Entity and such Stockholder
subject to clause (ii)(A) shall be required to provide such information), and shall be entitled to request confidential treatment
from any Governmental Entity and not disclose to the Corporation any information that is confidential and proprietary to such
Stockholder or (ii) any information, the disclosure of which either (A) is prohibited by applicable law or contract (and the Stockholders
shall not be obligated to seek the consent of any person to such disclosure) or (B) in the reasonable judgment of such Stockholder’s
investment adviser, would be adverse to the interests of such Stockholder or such investment adviser or their respective partners
or clients.


(g)            Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 6.19 shall supersede and control with
respect to any other provision of this Agreement that may conflict with or that may result in a breach of any of the provisions
described in this Section 6.19 and the provisions of this Section 6.19 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to
all of the provisions of this Agreement to the extent necessary to cause such other provisions of this Agreement to comply with
this Section 6.19.

any Subsidiary thereof even if such opportunity is of a character that, if referred or presented to the Corporation or any Subsidiary
thereof, could be taken by the Corporation or any Subsidiary thereof, and each Specified Stockholder, Specified Stockholder Person
or any of its or their Affiliates or, if applicable, any Specified Stockholder Affiliate Board Member (in such person’s

(c)          
No act or omission by any Specified Stockholder, any Specified Stockholder Person or its or their Affiliates or, if applicable,
any Specified Stockholder Affiliate Board Member (in such person’s capacity as an employee or officer of the Specified Stockholder
Person) in accordance with this Section 6.20 shall be considered contrary to (i) any fiduciary duty that such Specified
Stockholder, Specified Stockholder Person or its or their Affiliates or, if applicable, such Specified Stockholder Affiliate Board
Member (in such person’s capacity as an employee or officer of the Specified Stockholder) may owe to the Corporation, its
Subsidiaries or any of its or their Affiliates or to any Stockholder or by reason of such Specified Stockholder, Specified Stockholder
Person or its or their Affiliates or, if applicable, such Specified Stockholder Affiliate Board Member (in such person’s
capacity as an employee or officer of the Specified Stockholder) being a Stockholder, or (ii) any fiduciary duty of any director
of the Corporation, its Subsidiaries or any of its or their Affiliates who is also a director, officer or employee of any Specified
Stockholder, any Specified Stockholder Person or its or their Affiliates to the Corporation, Subsidiaries or any of its or their
Affiliates, or to any stockholder thereof. Any Person purchasing or otherwise acquiring any shares of capital stock of the Corporation,
its Subsidiaries or any of its or their Affiliates, or any interest therein, at any time after the date hereof shall be deemed
to have notice of and to have consented to the provisions of this Section 6.20. 


(d)         
The Corporation shall cause the governing documents of the Corporation and any of its Subsidiaries to have provisions that
are consistent with this Section 6.20.

Except as may be required by applicable law, neither the Corporation nor any representative of the Corporation will issue
any press release that identifies any Stockholder or any investment advisor to a Stockholder, or otherwise makes any public
statement with respect to any Stockholder or any investment advisor to a Stockholder hereby, without the prior written consent
of such Stockholder. Any such press release or public statement required by applicable law shall, to the extent feasible, only

of Stockholders; No Recourse. This Agreement affects the Stockholders only in their capacities as stockholders of the Corporation.
