any applicable law or any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any stock exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which the Warrant Certificates may from tine to time be listed, or to conform to usage. Each
Warrant Certificate shall be dated as of the date of issuance thereof by the Warrant Agent issuing such Warrant Certificate, either upon initial issuance or upon transfer or exchange, and on its face shall entitle the registered holder thereof to
purchase one share of Common Stock for each Warrant evidenced by such Warrant Certificate, initially at the prices per share set forth therein, but the number of such shares and such prices per share shall be subject to adjustments as provided

The Warrant Certificate shall be exercisable and transferrable immediately upon issuance. Without
limitation, any exercise shall comply with the provisions of Subsection 6(b) hereof.

Section 3.Issuance of Warrant
Certificates; Countersignature and Registration. The Warrant Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its President or any Vice President, by facsimile signature and have affixed thereto a facsimile of the Companys seal
which shall be attested by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company by facsimile signature. The Warrant Certificates shall be manually countersigned by the Warrant Agent (or by any successor as a Warrant Agent hereunder) and shall not
be valid for any purpose unless so countersigned. In case any officer of the Company who shall have signed any Warrant Certificate shall cease to be such officer of the Company before countersignature by a Warrant Agent and issuance and delivery
thereof, such Warrant Certificate, nevertheless, may be countersigned by the Warrant Agent, and issued and delivered with the same force and effect as though the person who signed such Warrant Certificate had not ceased to be such officer of the
Company; and any Warrant Certificate may be signed on behalf of the Company by any person who, at the actual date of the execution of such Warrant Certificate, shall be a proper officer of the Company to sign such Warrant Certificate, although at
the date of the execution of this Warrant Agreement any such person was not such an officer. Upon countersignature by the Warrant Agent and delivery, the Warrant Certificate shall be valid and binding upon the Company, and the holder thereof shall
be entitled to all the benefits of this Agreement.

The Warrant Agent will keep or cause to be kept at its principal corporate trust office
in Glendale, California, or elsewhere, books for registration and registration of transfer of the Warrant Certificates issued hereunder. Such books shall show the names and addresses of the respective holders of the Warrant Certificates, the number
of Warrants evidenced on its face by each of the Warrant Certificates, and the date of each of the Warrant Certificates.

Section 4.Transfer, Split Up, Combination and Exchange of Warrant Certificates; Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost, or Stolen Warrant Certificates. Subject to the provisions of Section 14 hereof any Warrant Certificate,
with or without other Warrant Certificates, may be transferred, split up, combined, or exchanged for another Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates representing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants. Subject to any restriction on
transferability that may appear on a Warrant Certificate in accordance with the terms hereof, any registered holder desiring to register the transfer of, or to split up, combine, or exchange, any Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates shall
make such request in writing delivered to the Warrant Agent and shall surrender such Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates to the Warrant Agent at its offices maintained for that purpose in Glendale, California, or elsewhere. Thereupon the
Warrant Agent shall countersign and deliver to the person entitled thereto a Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates, as the case may be, as soon as required. The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer, split up, combination, or exchange of Warrant Certificates.

the Company and the Warrant Agent of evidence reasonably satisfactory to them of the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of a Warrant Certificate, and, in case of loss, theft, or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to

Certificate to evidence the unexercised portion of such Warrant Certificate; and (iv) Warrant Certificates issued pursuant to Sections 11 or 20 hereof.

Section 6.Exercise of Warrants; Exercise Prices; Expiration Date of Warrants.

(a) Each
Warrant may be exercised on any business day beginning on the date of issuance and continuing until the close of business on April 30, 2007 (such date, as it may be changed, is herein called the Expiration Date). Each Warrant not
exercised on or before the close of business on the Expiration Date shall automatically become void at 5:00 P.M. Pacific Time (which time shall be deemed the close of business for purposes of this Agreement, the Warrants and the Warrant
Certificates), on the Expiration Date; each holder thereof shall thereafter have no further rights with respect thereto and the Company and the Warrant Agent shall thereafter have no further obligations with respect thereto.

(b) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement including Sections 11, 13 and 14, the holder of each Warrant shall have the right to purchase from the
Company (and the Company shall issue and sell to such holder(s) of a Warrant) one fully paid share of Common Stock at the exercise prices per share set forth in the form of Warrant Certificate included herein, as such prices may be adjusted in
accordance with the provisions hereof (such prices, as so adjusted, being herein called the Exercise Price), upon surrender to the Warrant Agent, at its offices maintained for that purpose in Glendale, California, or elsewhere, of the
Warrant Certificate evidencing such Warrants with the Warrant Exercise Form on the reverse thereof duly completed and signed, and upon payment of the then applicable Exercise Price. Payment of the Exercise Price and any amounts described in
Subsection 6(c) shall be: (i) in cash in United States dollars; or (ii) by certified or official bank check payable in United States dollars to the order of the Company.

(c) Upon receipt of a Warrant Certificate, with the Warrant Exercise Form duly executed, accompanied by payment of the Exercise Price-for the shares of
Common Stock to be purchased and an amount (if required by Section 9 hereof) equal to any applicable transfer tax, the Warrant Agent shall thereupon promptly: (i) requisition from any transfer agent for the shares of Common Stock
certificates evidencing ownership of the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased; (ii) when appropriate, requisition from the Company the amount of cash to be paid in lieu of issuance of fractional shares of Common Stock; and
(iii) promptly after receipt of such certificates cause the same to be delivered to or upon the order of the registered



3

holder of such Warrant Certificate, registered in such name or names as may be designated by such holder, and, when
appropriate after receipt promptly deliver such cash in lieu of fractions to or upon the order of the registered holder of such Warrant Certificate.

(d) In case the registered holder of any Warrant Certificate shall exercise fewer than all of the Warrants evidenced thereby, a new Warrant Certificate evidencing Warrants equivalent to the Warrants remaining
unexercised shall be issued by the Warrant Agent to the registered holder of such Warrant Certificate or to his or her duly authorized assignee, subject to the provisions of Section 14 hereof.

(e) The Warrant Agent shall account promptly to the Company with respect to Warrants exercised, shares of Common Stock issued, and concurrently deliver
to the Company all monies or checks for the purchase of shares of Common Stock.

Section 7.Cancellation and Destruction of
Warrant Certificates. All Warrant Certificates surrendered for the purpose of exercise, conversion, exchange, substitution, or registration of transfer shall, if surrendered to the Company or to any of its agents, be delivered to the Warrant
Agent for cancellation or in canceled form, or if surrendered to the Warrant Agent shall be canceled by it. The Company shall deliver to the Warrant Agent for cancellation and retirement and the Warrant Agent shall so cancel and retire, any other
Warrant Certificate purchased or acquired by the Company otherwise than upon the exercise thereof. The Warrant Agent shall deliver all canceled Warrant Certificates to the Company, or shall, at the written request of the Company, destroy such
canceled Warrant Certificates, and in such case shall deliver a certificate of destruction thereof to the Company.

Section 8.Reservation and Availability of Shares of Common Stock. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, for the purpose of
enabling it to satisfy any obligation to issue shares of Common Stock upon exercise or conversion of Warrants, the full number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon the exercise or conversion of all outstanding Warrants.

Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment pursuant to Section 11 reducing the Exercise Price, the Company will take any corporate
action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock at the Exercise Price as so adjusted.

The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock which may be issued upon exercise of Warrants will upon issue be fully paid and non-assessable and
free from all taxes, liens, charges and security interests with respect to the issue thereof.

The Warrant Agent is hereby authorized to
requisition from time to time from any transfer agent for the shares of Common Stock, and any subsequent transfer agent of any of the Companys securities issuable upon the exercise o f the Warrants, share certificates required to honor
outstanding Warrants. The Company hereby authorizes and instructs its present and any future transfer agent to comply with all such requests. The Company will supply such transfer agent with duly executed share certificates for such purpose and will
itself provide or otherwise make available any cash which may be payable as provided in Section 14.

If and for so long as the outstanding shares of Common Stock may be listed on any securities exchange or

Upon official notice of issuance upon such exercise or conversion.

Section 9.Transfer Taxes. The Company further
covenants and agrees that it will pay when due and payable any and all federal and state transfer taxes and charges which may be payable in respect of the issuance or delivery of the Warrant Certificates or of any shares of Common Stock upon the
exercise or conversion of Warrants. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any transfer tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the transfer or delivery of Warrant Certificates or the issuance or conversion or
delivery of certificates for shares of Common Stock in a name other than that of the registered holder of the Warrant Certificate evidencing Warrants surrendered for exercise or to issue or deliver any certificates for shares of Common Stock upon
the exercise or conversion of any Warrants until any such tax shall have been paid (any such tax being payable by the holder of such Warrant Certificate at the time of surrender) or until it has been established to the Companys satisfaction
that no such tax is due.

Section 10.Common Stock Record Date. Each person in whose name any certificate for shares of
Common Stock is issued upon the exercise of Warrants shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock represented thereby on, and such certificate shall be dated, the date upon which the Warrant
Certificate evidencing such Warrants was duly surrendered and payment of the Exercise Price (and any applicable transfer taxes) was made. Prior to the exercise of the Warrants evidenced thereby, the holder of a Warrant Certificate shall not be
entitled to any rights of a shareholder of the Company with respect to shares for which the Warrants shall be exercisable, including, without limitation, the rights to vote, to receive dividends or other distributions (except as expressly set forth
herein), or to exercise any preemptive rights, and shall not be entitled to receive any notice of any proceedings of the Company, except as expressly provided herein.

Section 11.Adjustment of Exercise Price, Number of Shares or Number of Warrants. The Exercise Price, the number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of each Warrant and the number
of Warrants outstanding shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of the events enumerated in Section 9 of the Warrant Certificate.

setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based and setting forth the number of Warrants to be issued under Section 11 hereof, or the number of shares of Common Stock (or portion
thereof) purchasable upon exercise of a Warrant after such



5



---

adjustment in the Exercise Price, which certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of the matters set
forth therein; and (ii) cause to be given to each of the holders of record of Warrant Certificates at their respective addresses appearing on the Warrant register written notice of such adjustment by first-class mail, postage prepaid. Where
appropriate, such notice may be given in advance and included as a part of the notice required to be made under the provisions of Section 9.5 of the Warrant Certificate.

Section 13.Obtaining of Governmental Approvals. The Company will use its reasonable efforts to take such action which may be
necessary from time to time to obtain and keep effective any and all permits, consents, and approvals of governmental agencies and authorities and to make all filings under federal and state securities laws which may be or become requisite in
connection with the issuance, sale, transfer and delivery of the Warrant Certificates, the exercise of the Warrants, and the issuance, sale, transfer and delivery of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.

The Company will give written notice of the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of Warrants, at such times and in such detail as
may be required, to each stock exchange and inter-dealer quotation system on which the shares of Common Stock are listed.

Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement or of the Warrants to the contrary: (i) the Warrants shall not be exercisable by the holder of any Warrant Certificate resident in a jurisdiction under the securities or blue sky laws of which the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Warrant Certificate are not registered or qualified or exempt from registration or qualification or in which a current prospectus meeting the requirements of the laws of such jurisdiction cannot be
lawfully delivered by or on behalf of the Company; and (ii) the Warrants shall not be exercisable by the holder of any Warrant Certificate if the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Warrant Certificate are not the subject of a
current registration statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the California Department of Financial Institutions, or such other appropriate securities agency, or exempt from such registration.

Section 14.Fractional Shares.

(a) The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrants or to distribute share certificates which evidence fractional shares of Common Stock. In lieu of
fractional shares of Common Stock there shall be paid to the registered holders of Warrant Certificates at the time such Warrants are exercised as herein provided an amount in cash in United States dollars equal to the same fraction of the current
market value of a share of Common Stock. For purposes of this Subsection 14(a), the current market value of a share of Common Stock shall be the Closing Price of a share of Common Stock for the trading day immediately prior to the date of such
exercise.

|CUSIP         |  | To Purchase One Share Of Common Stock Each

SOUTHWEST COMMUNITY BANK

Organized Under the Laws of the State of California

THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for
value received,

the registered holder hereof or registered assigns (the Holder), is entitled to purchase from Southwest Community Bank, a
California banking corporation (the Bank), at the purchase price of $28.60 per share (the Warrant Price), one share of the Banks Common Stock, no par value (the Common Stock), for each Warrant comprising the
aggregate number of Warrants set forth above. The number of shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the Warrant Price per share shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth herein. This Warrant shall expire at 5:00 p.m.
Pacific Time on April 30, 2007 (the Expiration Date), unless extended by the Bank, subject to regulatory approval.

This
Warrant is one of a duly authorized issue of up to 38,462 Warrants evidencing the right to purchase an aggregate of up to 38,462 shares of Common Stock and is issued in connection with the Banks public offering consisting of up to 192,310
shares of Common Stock and one Warrant for every five shares of Common Stock purchased. The shares of Common Stock to be issued upon the exercise of Warrants are referred to herein as Warrant Shares. The offer and sale of the Warrants
and the Warrant Shares has been made pursuant to a Permit issued by the California Department of Financial Institutions.

1. Exercise
Period and Expiration Date. The Warrants are exercisable from issuance until the Expiration Date (the Exercise Period), unless extended. This Warrant shall expire in its entirety and no longer be exercisable at 5:00 p.m., Pacific
Time, on the Expiration Date, unless extended. The Bank shall use its best efforts to qualify or register the Warrant Shares under the laws of the states in which the Holders reside and under applicable federal securities laws where no exemption
from such registration or qualification is available.

2. Exercise of Warrants. This Warrant may be exercised at the Banks
Administrative Office at 5810 El Camino Real, Carlsbad, California 92008, upon presentation and surrender hereof, with the Warrant Exercise Form on the reverse side hereof duly completed and signed, and upon payment to the Bank of the Warrant Price
(as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of Section 9 hereof), for the number of Warrant Shares in respect of which such



---

Warrant is then exercised. Payment of the aggregate Warrant Price shall be made in cash in United States dollars, by
certified or official bank check payable in United States dollars to the order of the Bank, or by any combination thereof.

The Bank shall
not be required to issue fractional Warrant Shares on the exercise of Warrants. When Warrants shall be presented for exercise in full at the same time by the same Holder, the number of full Warrant Shares which shall be issuable upon the exercise
thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares purchasable by such Holder on exercise of the Warrants so presented. If any fraction of a Warrant Share would be issuable on the exercise of any Warrants in full, the
Bank shall pay an amount in cash equal to the then current market price per Warrant Share multiplied by such fraction. When Warrants shall be presented for exercise as to a specified portion, only full Warrant Shares shall be issuable and a new
Warrant shall be issuable evidencing the remaining Warrant or Warrants.

Upon such surrender of Warrants and payment of the Warrant Price
as aforesaid, the Bank or its Warrant Agent shall issue and cause to be delivered with all reasonable dispatch to or upon the written order of the Holder and in such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate or certificates for the
number of full Warrant Shares so purchased upon the exercise of such Warrants, together with cash, as provided above in this Section 2, in respect of any fractional Warrant Share otherwise issuable upon such surrender. Such certificate or
certificates shall be deemed to have been issued and any person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to become a holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the date of the surrender of such Warrants and payment of the Warrant Price,
as aforesaid; provided, however, that if, at the date of surrender of such Warrants and payment of the Warrant Price, the transfer books for the Warrant Shares or other class of stock purchasable upon the exercise of such Warrants shall be closed,
the certificates for the Warrant Shares in respect of which such Warrants are then exercised shall be issuable as of the date on which such books shall next be opened (whether before or after the Expiration Date) and until such date the Bank shall
be under no duty to deliver any certificate for such Warrant Shares. The purchase rights represented by the Warrants shall be exercisable, at the election of the Holders thereof, either in full or from time to time in part and, in the event that a
Warrant is exercised in respect of less than all of the Warrant Shares purchasable on such exercise at any time prior to the date of expiration of the Warrants, a new Warrant evidencing the remaining Warrant or Warrants will be issued. All Warrants
surrendered in the exercise of the rights thereby evidenced shall be cancelled by the Bank.

3. Exchange of Warrants. This Warrant
may be exchanged without charge for another Warrant(s) entitling the Holder thereof to purchase a like aggregate number of Warrant Shares as the Warrant(s) surrendered then entitle such Holder to purchase. Any Holder desiring to exchange a
Warrant(s) shall make such request in writing delivered to the Bank or its Warrant Agent and shall surrender, properly endorsed, the Warrant(s) to be so exchanged. Thereupon, the Bank or its Warrant Agent shall deliver to the person(s) entitled
thereto new Warrant(s) as so requested.

REFERENCE IS HEREBY MADE TO THE FURTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS WARRANT SET FORTH ON THE REVERSE
HEREOF, WHICH FURTHER PROVISIONS SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES HAVE THE SAME EFFECT AS IF SET FORTH AT THIS PLACE.

4. Transfer of Warrants. This Warrant shall be transferable only on the books of the
Bank maintained by the Warrant Agent upon delivery hereof, with the Assignment of Warrant Form below duly endorsed with signatures properly guaranteed by a commercial bank or securities brokerage firm, or accompanied by proper evidence of
succession, assignment or authority to transfer. Upon any registration of transfer, the Bank or its Warrant Agent shall deliver a new Warrant or Warrants to the person(s) entitled thereto.

5. Payment of Taxes. The Bank will pay all documentary stamp taxes, if any, attributable to the initial issuance of Warrant Shares upon the
exercise of Warrants; provided, however, that the Bank shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any Warrants or certificates for Warrant Shares in a name
other than that of the registered Holder of the Warrants, and in such case the Bank shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificates for shares of Common Stock or any Warrant until the person requesting the same has paid to the Bank the
amount of such tax or has established to the Banks satisfaction that such tax has been paid.

6. Mutilated or Missing
Warrants. In case any of the Warrants shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Bank or its Warrant Agent may, at its discretion issue, upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and in substitution for the Warrant lost,
stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant of like tenor and representing an equivalent right or interest;



---

but only upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Bank or its Warrant Agent of such loss, theft or destruction of
such Warrant and indemnity, if requested, also satisfactory to the Bank or its Warrant Agent. An applicant for such a substitute Warrant shall reimburse Bank and its Warrant Agent for all reasonable expenses and shall also comply with such other
reasonable regulations as the Bank or its Warrant Agent may prescribe.

7. Reservation of Warrant Shares. The Bank shall at all
times, while the Warrants are exercisable, keep reserved, out of its authorized Common Stock, a number of shares of Common Stock sufficient to provide for the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by the outstanding Warrants. Promptly after
the date of expiration of the Warrants, no shares shall be subject to reservation in respect of such Warrants.

8. Cancellation of
Warrants. The Bank or its Warrant Agent shall cancel any Warrants surrendered for exchange, substitution, transfer or exercise in whole or in part.

9. Adjustment of Warrant Price and Number of Warrant Shares. The number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of each Warrant and the Warrant Price shall be subject to adjustments from time to
time upon the happening of certain events, as hereinafter defined:

9.1 Mechanical Adjustments. The number of Warrant Shares
purchasable upon the exercise of each Warrant and the Warrant Price shall be subject to adjustment as follows:

(a) In case
the Bank shall: (i) pay a dividend in shares of Common Stock or make a distribution in shares of Common Stock; (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares; (iii) combine its outstanding shares
of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock; or (iv) issue by reclassification of its shares of Common Stock or capital reorganization other securities of the Bank, the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of
each Warrant immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the Holder of each Warrant shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Bank which the Holder would have owned or would have been
entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above, had such Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the happening of such event or any record date with respect thereto. An adjustment made pursuant to this Paragraph
(a) shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such event retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event.

(b) No adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent (1%) in the number of Warrant Shares
purchasable upon the exercise of each Warrant; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Paragraph (b) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment(s). All
calculations shall be made to the nearest one hundredth (1/100) of a share.



---

(c) Whenever the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of each Warrant
is adjusted, as herein provided, each Warrant Price payable upon exercise of each Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying the Warrant Price immediately prior to the adjustment by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the number of Warrant
Shares purchasable upon the exercise of each Warrant immediately prior to the adjustment, and of which the denominator shall be the number of Warrant Shares so purchasable immediately thereafter. All calculations shall be made to the nearest whole
penny.

(d) For the purpose of this Subsection 9.1, the term shares of Common Stock shall mean: (i) the
class of stock designated as the Common Stock of the Bank at the date of this Warrant: or (ii) any other class of stock resulting from successive changes or reclassifications of such shares consisting solely of changes in par value, or from par
value to no par value, or from no par value to par value. In the event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to Paragraph (a) above, the Holder shall become entitled to purchase any shares of the Bank other than shares of
Common Stock, thereafter the number of such other shares so purchasable upon exercise of each Warrant and the Warrant Price of such shares shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable
to the provisions with respect to the Warrant Shares contained in Paragraphs (a) through (c), inclusive, above, and the provisions of Sections 1 and 2 and Subsections 9.2 through 9.4, inclusive, with respect to the Warrant Shares, shall apply
on like terms to any such other shares.

9.2 Voluntary Adjustment by the Bank. The Bank may at its option, at any time during the
term of the Warrants, reduce the then current Warrant Price to any amount deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Bank, subject to regulatory approval.

9.3 Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of each Warrant and the Warrant Price of such Warrant Shares are adjusted, as herein provided, the Bank shall cause
to be mailed by First class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder, notice of such adjustment or adjustments setting forth the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of each Warrant and the Warrant Price of such Warrant Shares after
such adjustment, setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the computation by which such adjustment was made. Any failure by the Bank to give notice to any Holder or any defect therein shall not affect
the validity of such adjustment or of the event resulting in the adjustment, nor of the Holders rights to such adjustment.

9.4 No
Adjustment for Dividends or Distributions. Except as provided in Subsections 9.1 and 9.6, no adjustment in respect of any dividends or distributions shall be made during the term of a Warrant or upon the exercise of a Warrant.

9.5 Rights Upon Consolidation, Merger. etc.

(a) In the case of any consolidation of the Bank with or merger of the Bank into another corporation or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation of the property of the Bank as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety, such successor or purchasing corporation may assume the obligations hereunder, and may execute with the



---

Bank an agreement that each Holder shall have the right thereafter upon payment of the Warrant Price in
effect immediately prior to such transaction to purchase upon exercise of each Warrant the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property (including cash) which each Holder would have owned or would have been entitled to receive after
the happening of such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance had such Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such action. The Bank shall mail by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder, notice of the execution of any such
agreement. Such agreement shall provide for adjustments, which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 9. The provisions of this Subsection 9.5 shall similarly apply to successive
consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances.

(b) In the event that such successor corporation does not execute such an
agreement with the Bank as provided in Paragraph (a), then each Holder shall be entitled to exercise outstanding Warrants, during a period of at least 30 days, which period shall terminate at least 5 days prior to consummation of the consolidation,
merger, sale or conveyance, and thereby receive consideration in the transaction on the same basis as other previously outstanding shares of the same class as the Warrant Shares acquired upon exercise. The Bank shall use its best efforts to qualify
or register the Warrant Shares issued pursuant to this Paragraph (b) under the laws of the states in which the holders reside and under applicable federal securities laws where no exemption from registration or qualification is available.
Warrants not exercised in accordance with this Paragraph (b) before consummation of the transaction will be canceled and become null and void. The Bank shall mail by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder, at least 10 days prior to
the first date on which the Warrants shall become exercisable, notice of the proposed transaction setting forth the first and last date on which the Holder may exercise outstanding Warrants and a description of the terms of this Warrant providing
for cancellation of the Warrants in the event that Warrants are not exercised by the prescribed date.

(c) The Banks
failure to give any notice required by this Subsection 9.5 or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of any such agreement, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance of property.

9.6 Rights Upon Liquidation. In case: (i) the Bank shall make any distribution of its assets to holders of its shares of Common Stock as a
liquidation or partial liquidation dividend or by way of return of capital, or other than as a dividend payable out of capital and unimpaired surplus legally available for dividends under California law: or (ii) the Bank shall liquidate,
dissolve or wind up its affairs (other than in connection with a consolidation, merger or sale of all or substantially all of its property, assets, and business as an entirety), then the Bank shall cause to be mailed to each Holder, by first class
mail, postage prepaid, at least 20 days prior to the applicable record date, a notice stating the date on which such distribution, liquidation, dissolution or winding up is expected to become effective, and the date on which it is expected that
holders of shares of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities or other property or assets (including cash) deliverable upon such distribution, liquidation, dissolution or winding up. The
Banks failure to give the notice required by this Subsection 9.6 or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of such distribution, liquidation, dissolution or winding up.



---

9.7 Statement on Warrant. Irrespective of any adjustments in the Warrant Price or the number or
kind of shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants. Warrants theretofore or thereafter issued may continue to express the same price and number and kind of shares as are stated in the Warrants initially issued.

10. No Rights as Stockholders. Nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder hereof or the Holders
transferees the right to vote or to receive dividends or to consent to or to receive notice as stockholders in respect of any meeting of stockholders for the election of directors of the Bank or any other matter, or any rights whatsoever as
stockholders of the Bank.

11. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Warrant by any Holder to the Bank or by the Bank to the Holder,
shall be in writing and shall be mailed first class, postage prepaid, or delivered: (a) if to the Bank, at its Administrative Office at 5810 El Camino Real, Carlsbad, California 92008; or (b) if to the Holder, at the Holders
respective address on the books of the Bank.

12. Applicable Law. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to principles of conflict of laws.

13. Captions. The captions of the
Sections and Subsections of this Warrant have been inserted for convenience only and shall have no substantive effect.
