persons listed on Exhibit A (each, an "Initial Holder"), in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. 



        WHEREAS,
in recognition of the financial risks undertaken by the initial shareholders of the Company, the Company desires to grant to each Initial Holder warrants to purchase shares of
common stock of the Company (each, a "Warrant" and, collectively, the "Warrants") equal to one warrant for each five shares purchased in the initial offering of common stock of the Company. 


        NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the agreements hereinafter set forth, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and, by acceptance
of a Warrant, each Holder (as defined herein) agree as follows: 



        1.    Grant of Warrants.    Subject to the terms, restrictions, limitations and conditions stated in this Agreement,
the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company hereby grants to Initial Holder the number of Warrants set forth beside his name on  Exhibit A. Each Warrant initially shall
be exercisable for one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of
the Company ("Share"), subject to adjustment as provided in Section 11 of this Agreement. The Initial Holders and all subsequent registered holders of the Warrants (each, a "Holder" and,
collectively, the "Holders") shall have the rights and obligations set forth in this Agreement. 



        2.    Warrant Certificates.    Each Warrant shall be evidenced by a warrant certificate, which shall be substantially
in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit B ("Warrant Certificate"). Each Warrant Certificate shall have such marks of identification or
designation and such legends or endorsements thereon as the Company deems appropriate, so long as they are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, or as are required to comply with any
applicable law, rule, or regulation applicable to the Company or the Shares. The Warrant Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Company by
the manual, facsimile, or imprinted signature of its Chairman of the Board, its president or any vice president and shall be attested by the manual, facsimile, or imprinted signature its secretary or
any assistant secretary. 


        3.    Term of Warrants.    


        (a)    The term for the exercise of the Warrants shall begin at 9:00 a.m., Austin, Texas time on the date that Treaty Oak

Regulator); and (ii) the Regulator is requiring exercise or forfeiture of warrants. Upon receipt of such notice from the Regulator, the Company shall promptly notify each Holder that he must
exercise the Warrants granted to him prior to the end of the 45-day period or such earlier period as may be specified by the Regulator or forfeit such Warrant(s). In case of forfeiture, no
Holder shall have any cause of action, of any kind or nature, against the Company, the Bank, or any of their respective officers or directors with respect to the forfeiture. In addition, the Company
shall not be liable to any Holder due to the failure or inability of the Company to provide adequate notice to Holder. 


        4.    Exercise of Warrants.    The purchase price per Share to be paid by a Holder for Shares subject to the Warrants
shall be $10.00, subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 11 of this Agreement (the

number of Shares that remain subject to the Warrant shall be issued by the Company to such Holder or to his duly authorized assigns. 


        6.    Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

aggregate amount. 


        (d)   Every
Warrant Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied (if so required by the Company or the Securities
Registrar) by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company or the Securities Registrar, duly executed by the registered Holder or by such Holder's duly
authorized attorney in writing. 


        7.    Replacement of Warrant Certificates.    


        (a)    Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of a
Warrant Certificate and, in the case of loss, theft, or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of mutilation,
surrender, and cancellation of such Warrant Certificate, the Company shall issue and deliver to the Holder or his duly authorized assigns, one or more new Warrant Certificates of like tenor and in
like aggregate amount. In the case of loss, theft, or destruction of a Warrant Certificate, prior to the issuance of a replacement Warrant Certificate, the Company may also require that a bond be
posted in such amount as the Company may determine is necessary as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Warrant Certificate. 


        (b)   All
Warrants shall be held and owned under the express condition that the provisions of this Section are exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment of
mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Warrant Certificates and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies, notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted to
the contrary with respect to the replacement or payment of negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender. 


        (c)   Upon
the issuance of any new Warrant Certificate under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be 


2





 



imposed
in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Company and its agents and counsel) connected therewith. 


        (d)   Every
new Warrant Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Warrant Certificate shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Agreement equally and proportionately with any and all other
Warrant Certificates duly issued hereunder. 


        8.    Persons Deemed Holders.    Prior to the due presentment of a Warrant Certificate for registration of transfer or
exchange, the Company, any Securities Registrar, and any other agent of the Company may treat the person in whose name such Warrant Certificate is registered in the Securities Register as the sole
Holder of such Warrant Certificate and of the Warrant represented by such Warrant Certificate for all purposes whatsoever, and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or
interest in such Warrant Certificate or in the Warrant represented by such Warrant Certificate on the part of any person and shall be unaffected by any notice to the contrary. 



        9.    Cancellation.    All Warrant Certificates surrendered for the purpose of exercise, exchange or registration of
transfer shall be cancelled by the Securities Registrar, and no Warrant Certificates shall be issued in lieu thereof, except as expressly permitted by the provisions of this Agreement. 


        10.    Fractional Shares.    The Company shall not be required to issue Warrant Certificates exercisable for
fractional Shares or to issue fractional Shares upon the exercise of Warrants. Warrant Certificates exercisable for fractional Shares shall expire as of the Expiration Date, and a Holder of such
Warrant Certificates shall not be entitled to any consideration of any kind or nature in respect of such Warrant or Warrant Certificate. 


        11.    Stock Dividends, Splits, Etc.

declare and pay a dividend of its Shares payable in additional Shares, the Exercise Price, as then in effect, shall be proportionately reduced, and the Company shall proportionately increase the
number of Shares then subject to exercise under this Warrant (and not previously exercised.) 


        (b)   If,
prior to the Expiration Time, the Company shall combine its outstanding Shares into a lesser number of Shares, the Exercise Price, as then in effect, shall be
proportionately increased, and the Company shall proportionately reduce the number of Shares then subject to exercise under this Warrant (and not previously exercised.) 



        12.    Reorganization, Reclassifications, Consolidation or Merger.    If, prior to the Expiration Time, there shall be
a reorganization or reclassification of the Shares (other than as provided in Section 11 of this Agreement) or any consolidation or merger of the Company with another entity, the Holder shall
be entitled to receive, during the remainder of the term of this Agreement and upon payment of the Exercise Price, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company or of
the successor entity (or its parent company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, as the case may be, to which a holder of Shares, deliverable upon the exercise of a Warrant, would have been
entitled upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, or merger; and, in any case, the Company shall make appropriate adjustments (as determined by the board of directors of the Company
in its sole discretion) in the application of the provisions with respect to the rights and interests of the Holders so that the provisions set forth in this Agreement (including the adjustment to the
Exercise Price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants) shall be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable, to any shares or other property thereafter deliverable upon the
exercise of this Warrant. 


        13.    Certificate as to Adjustments; Issuance of New Warrant Certificates.    Within thirty (30) days
following any adjustment provided for in Section 11 or 12 of this Agreement, the Company shall give

written
notice of the adjustment to the Holders as provided in Section 14(a) of this Agreement. The notice shall state the Exercise Price as adjusted and the increased or decreased
number of shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant(s) and shall set forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation for each. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein
or in the Warrant Certificates, the Company may, at its option, issue new Warrant Certificates evidencing the Warrants, in such form as may be approved by the Company, to reflect any adjustment or
change in the Exercise Price and the number or kind of stock or other securities or property purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants. 


        14.    Miscellaneous.    


        (a)    Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be made hereunder shall be in writing, duly signed by the
party giving such notice or communication and shall be deemed delivered and effective when given personally or mailed by first-class registered or certified mail, postage prepaid as

effective until received by the Company. 


        (b)   The
Company shall, at all times, reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Shares or out of any Shares held in treasury that number of Shares that
will from time to time be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants. The Company shall take all such action as may be necessary to ensure that all Shares delivered upon
exercise of any Warrants shall, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Certificates for such Shares, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. 


        (c)   The
Company shall pay when due and payable any and all federal and state transfer taxes and charges (other any applicable income taxes) that may be payable in respect of
the issuance and delivery of Warrant Certificates or of certificates for Shares receivable upon the exercise of any Warrants; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax
that may be payable in respect of the issuance and delivery (i) of any Warrant Certificate or stock certificate registered in a name other than that of the Holder of the Warrant Certificate
that has been surrendered or (ii) of any Warrant Certificate under Section 7. 



        (d)   No
Holder, in his capacity as such, shall be entitled to vote or receive dividends or shall be deemed from any other purpose the holder of the Shares or other securities
which may at any time be issuable upon the exercise of such Warrant. Nothing contained herein or in any Warrant Certificate shall be construed to confer upon any Holder, in his capacity as such, any
of the rights of a shareholder of the Company, including any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to shareholders of the Company at any meeting thereof, to give or
withhold consent to any corporation action, or to receive notices of meeting or other actions affecting shareholders. 



        (e)   Each
Holder, by accepting a Warrant Certificate, accepts and agrees to the terns of this Agreement. The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon the Company and the
Holders and their respective heirs, successors, representatives, and permitted assigns. Nothing expressed or referred to herein is intended or will be construed to give any person other than the
Company or the Holders any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim under or in respect of this Agreement, or any provision herein contained, it being the intention of the Company and the Holders
that this Agreement, the assumption of obligations and statements of responsibilities hereunder, and all other conditions and provisions hereof are for the sole benefit of the Company and the Holders
and for the benefit of no other person. 


        (f)    This
Agreement constitutes the full understanding of the Company and the Holders, a complete allocation of risks between them, and a complete and exclusive statement of
the terms and 


4





 



conditions
of their agreement relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior agreements, whether written or oral, that may exist between the Company and any Holder with respect
thereto. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, no conditions, usage of trade, course of dealing or performance, understanding, or agreement purporting to modify, vary, explain,
or supplement the terms or conditions of this Agreement will be binding unless hereafter or contemporaneously herewith made in writing and signed by the party to be bound, and no modification will be
effected by the acknowledgment or acceptance of documents containing terms or conditions at variance with or in addition to those set forth in this Agreement.
