(7)

	
Deposits that have been reported as abandoned property under the abandoned property laws of any jurisdiction.

(c)

	
Seller does not represent or warrant that any deposit customers whose accounts are assumed by Purchaser will become or continue to be customers of Purchaser after the Effective Time.













	
  

	
(d)

	
Purchaser agrees to pay in accordance with law and customary banking practices all properly drawn and presented checks, drafts and withdrawal orders presented to Purchaser by mail, over-the-counter or through the check clearing system of the banking industry, by depositors of the accounts assumed, whether drawn on the checks, withdrawal or draft forms provided by Purchaser or for a period not to exceed sixty (60) calendar days after the Closing Date, on the checks, withdrawal











  





5











  








or draft forms provided by Seller, and in all other respects to discharge, in the usual course of the banking business, the duties and obligations of Seller with respect to the balances due and owing to the depositors whose accounts are assumed by Purchaser.








	
  

	
(e)

	
If, after the Effective Time, any depositor, instead of accepting the obligation of Purchaser to pay the Deposit Liabilities assumed, shall demand payment from Seller for all or any part of any such assumed Deposit Liabilities, Seller shall not be liable or responsible for making any such payment.













	
  

	
(f)

	
Purchaser agrees, at its cost and expense, (1) to assign new account numbers to depositors of assumed accounts, (2) to notify such depositors, on or before the Effective Time, in a form and on a date mutually acceptable to Seller and Purchaser, of Purchaser's assumption of Deposit Liabilities, and (3) to furnish such depositors with checks on the forms of Purchaser and with instructions to utilize Purchaser's checks and to destroy unused check, draft and withdrawal order forms of Seller and that checks or drafts drawn more than sixty (60) calendar days after the Closing Date on Seller’s check or draft forms will not be honored.  In connection with this obligation, Seller shall provide Purchaser with a customer list on the Deposit Liabilities together with information regarding these customers’ accounts.  (If Purchaser so elects, Purchaser may offer to buy from such depositors their unused Seller check, draft and withdrawal order forms.)  In addition, Seller will notify its affected customers by letter of the pending assignment of the Deposit Liabilities to Purchaser, which notice shall be at Seller's cost and expense and shall be in a form and mailed at a time mutually agreeable to Seller and Purchaser.













	
  

	
(g)

	
Purchaser agrees to pay promptly to Seller an amount equivalent to the amount of any checks, drafts or withdrawal orders credited to an assumed account as of the Effective Time that are properly returned to Seller after the Effective Time.













	
  

	
(h)

	
As of the Effective Time, Purchaser will assume and discharge Seller's duties and obligations in accordance with the terms and conditions and laws, rules and regulations that apply to the certificates, accounts and other Deposit Liabilities assumed under this Agreement.













	
  

	
(i)

	
As of and after the Effective Time, Purchaser will maintain and safeguard in accordance with applicable law and sound banking practices all account documents, deposit contracts, signature cards, deposit slips, canceled items and other records related to the Deposit Liabilities assumed under this Agreement, subject to Seller's right of access to such records as provided in this Agreement.













	
  

	
(j)

	
Within thirty (30) calendar days after the Closing Date, Seller will render a final statement to each depositor of an account assumed under this Agreement as to transactions occurring through the Effective Time; provided, however, that Seller shall not be obligated to render a final statement on any account not ordinarily











  





6











  









	
  

	
receiving periodic statements in the ordinary course of Seller's business.  Seller will be entitled to impose normal fees and service charges on a per-item basis at Closing, but Seller will not impose periodic fees or blanket charges in connection with such final statements.













	
  

	
(k)

	
Within sixty (60) calendar days after the Closing Date, Seller will timely provide to Purchaser 1099 data for Purchaser to comply with all laws, rules and regulations regarding 2011 tax reporting of transactions of such accounts through the Effective Time.













	
  

	
(l)

	
Seller will provide Purchaser, at least twenty (20) calendar days before the Closing, the list of ACH entries for electronic transfer accounts maintained at the Banking Centers.  As of the Effective Time, Purchaser, at its expense, will notify all Automated Clearing House ("ACH") originators of the transfers and assumptions made pursuant to the Agreement; provided, however, that Seller may, at its option, notify all such originators itself (on behalf of Purchaser) also at the expense of Purchaser.  For a period of 60 calendar days beginning on the Effective Time, Seller will honor all ACH items related to accounts assumed under this Agreement which are routed or presented to Seller.  Seller will make no charge to Purchaser for honoring such items, and will electronically transmit such ACH data to Purchaser.  If Purchaser cannot receive an electronic transmission, Seller will make available to Purchaser at Seller's operations center receiving items from the Automated Clearing House tapes containing such ACH data.  Items routed or presented after the 60-day period shall be returned to the presenting party.  Seller and Purchaser shall make arrangements to provide for the daily settlement with immediately available funds by Purchaser of any ACH items honored by Seller, and Seller shall be held harmless and indemnified by Purchaser for acting in accordance with this arrangement to accept ACH items.













	
  

	
(m)

	
As of the Effective Time, Purchaser agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to collect from Purchaser's customers amounts equal to any Visa or MasterCard charge backs under the MasterCard and Visa Merchant Agreements between Seller and its customers, or amounts equal to any deposit items returned to Seller after the Effective Time which were honored by Seller prior to the Effective Time, and remit such amounts so collected to Seller.  Purchaser agrees to immediately freeze and remit to Seller any funds, up to the amount of the charged back or returned item that had been previously credited by Seller, if such funds are available at the time of notification by Seller to Purchaser of the charged back or returned item and such charge back is permitted.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall have no duty to remit funds for any item or charge that has been improperly returned or charged to Seller.  Solely for the purposes of this Section 1.3(m), all references to Seller shall be deemed to include Seller and its assignees.

Section 1.4.  [Removed]







Section 1.5. Safe Deposit Business.








	
  

	
(a)

	
As of the Effective Time, Purchaser will assume and discharge Seller's obligations with respect to the safe deposit box business at the Banking Centers arising on or after the Effective Time in accordance with the terms and conditions of contracts or rental agreements related to such business, and Purchaser will maintain all facilities necessary for the use of such safe deposit boxes by persons entitled to use them; provided, that nothing herein shall be deemed to prohibit Purchaser, after the Effective Time, from discontinuing the safe deposit box services or facilities at the Banking Centers (all in accordance with applicable law and any contractual obligations regarding the same).













	
  

	
(b)

	
As of the Effective Time, Seller shall transfer and assign the records related to such safe deposit box business to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall maintain and safeguard all such records and be responsible for granting access to and protecting the contents of safe deposit boxes at the Banking Centers.













	
  

	
(c)

	
Safe deposit box rental payments (not including late payment fees) collected by either Seller or Purchaser applying to periods both before and after the Effective Time shall be prorated as of the Effective Time.












Section 1.6. Employee Matters.








	
  

	
(a)

	
Purchaser shall offer employment to all employees employed by Seller at the Banking Centers as of the Effective Time (the "Employees”) that are set forth in Schedule 1.6, in their then respective current functional positions and locations, with remuneration not less than levels at the Effective Time and benefits generally equivalent to benefits offered by Purchaser to similarly situated employees of Purchaser.

pledges, material liens, encumbrances, reservations, tenancies, encroachments, overlaps or other title exceptions or zoning or similar land use violations (excluding legal but nonconforming uses) related to the Owned Real Property to which Purchaser reasonably objects (the "Title Defects").  Within the Inspection Period the Purchaser may, at Purchaser’s expense, obtain a Commitment for an ALTA Owner’s Form B Title Insurance Policy (the “Title Policy”) issued by a title insurer reasonably approved by Seller (the “Title Insurer”), with respect to the Owned Real Property and designating Purchaser as the proposed insured (the “Title Commitment”).  Purchaser agrees that Title Defects shall not include real property taxes not yet due and payable, or easements, restrictions, tenancies, and rights of way which do not materially interfere with the use of the Owned Real Property as a banking center or defects which Purchaser can obtain protection from through purchase of title insurance at regular rates (or higher rates if the excess over the regular rate is paid by Seller).  Seller shall have no obligation to cure any Title Defects.  If Seller is unable or unwilling to cure any such Title Defects to Purchaser's reasonable satisfaction, Purchaser shall have the option (upon written notice to Seller) to either (x) accept the Title Defects and receive title in its then existing condition and proceed to Closing (without a Purchase Price adjustment), or (y) terminate this Agreement solely with respect to the affected Owned Real Property and purchase only the Deposit Liabilities related to the associated Banking Center, unless: (i) the Purchaser elects not to purchase the Improved Real Property at the Plymouth Banking Center as described on Schedule 1.1(a)(1), in which case Purchaser may not purchase the Deposit Liabilities associated with either the Roper or Plymouth Banking Centers; or (ii) the Purchaser elects not to purchase the Improved Real Property at the Preston Corners Banking Center as described on Schedule 1.1(a)(1), in which case Purchaser may not purchase Deposit Liabilities associated with the Lake Boone and Falls of Neuse Banking Centers.

(iv)

	
Purchaser shall have the right to update title matters at Closing for any changes that may have arisen between the date of Purchaser's original title search and the Closing Date.  If such update indicates that any Title Defects have been placed of record since the effective date of the Title Commitment and Purchaser reasonably objects thereto, then Purchaser agrees to notify Seller in writing within three (3) business days of receiving notification thereof.  Seller shall have no obligation to cure any Title Defects.  If Seller is unable or unwilling to cure any such Title Defects to Purchaser's reasonable satisfaction, Purchaser shall have the option (upon written notice to Seller) to either (x) accept the Title Defects and receive title in its then existing condition and proceed to Closing (without a











  





11











  









	
  

	
Purchase Price adjustment), or (y) terminate this Agreement solely with respect to the affected Owned Real Property and purchase the Deposit Liabilities related to the associated Banking Center and the other Banking Centers, unless:  (i) the Purchaser elects not to purchase the Improved Real Property at the Plymouth Banking Center as described on Schedule 1.1(a)(1), in which case Purchaser may not purchase the Deposit Liabilities associated with either the Roper or Plymouth Banking Centers; or (ii) the Purchaser elects not to purchase the Improved Real Property at the Preston Corners Banking Center as described on Schedule 1.1(a)(1), Purchaser may not purchase Deposit Liabilities associated with the Lake Boone and Falls of Neuse Banking Centers.

If satisfactory arrangements have not been made as of such time wherein landlord consents to such assignment, this Agreement shall be terminated solely with respect to the affected Leased Real Property.













	
  

	
(b)

	
Environmental Matters.












Purchaser shall have the right to conduct such investigation of environmental matters with respect to the Owned Real Property as it may reasonably require and shall report the results of any such investigation, together with its objections to any Environmental Issue, if any, to Seller no later than the end of the Inspection Period; provided, that without the prior written consent of Seller, Purchaser shall not conduct any invasive testing or any ground water monitoring or install any test well or undertake any other investigation which requires a permit or license from, or the reporting of the investigation or the results thereof to, a local or state environmental regulatory authority or the United States Environmental Protection Agency.  As a part of an investigation of environmental matters with respect to the Owned Real Property, the Purchaser may, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, obtain a completed Phase I environmental report (“Phase I”) of the Owned Real Property conducted by an independent environmental investigation and testing firm selected by Purchaser and reasonably acceptable to Seller.  If the Phase I discloses any potential environmental condition that in the reasonable belief of Purchaser warrants further review or investigation, Purchaser shall give notice of the same to Seller within ten (10) business days of its receipt of the Phase I.  Purchaser shall purchase the Owned Real Property on the terms set forth in this Agreement if notice is not provided within such ten (10) business day period. Upon giving such notice, Purchaser may, within an additional thirty (30) day period, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, obtain a completed Phase II environmental report (“Phase II”).  Purchaser shall purchase the Owned Real Property on the terms set forth in this Agreement if (a) the

Phase I or Phase II report reveals potential levels of environmental contaminants not in excess of federal or state action limits, or (b) the Purchaser shall have been provided confirmation from governmental authorities with applicable jurisdiction that no action with respect to the Owned Real Property is required.  If the Phase II report reveals levels of environmental contaminants in excess of federal or state action limits on any Owned Real Property (an “Environmental Issue”), Purchaser shall have the option (upon written notice to Seller) to either (x) accept the Owned Real Property in its then existing condition and proceed to Closing (without a Purchase Price adjustment), or (y) terminate this Agreement solely with respect to the affected Owned Real Property and purchase the Deposit Liabilities related to the associated Banking Center and the other Banking Centers, unless: (i) the Purchaser elects not to purchase the Improved Real Property at the Plymouth Banking Center as described on Schedule 1.1(a)(1), in which case Purchaser may not purchase the Deposit Liabilities associated with either the Roper or Plymouth Banking Centers; or (ii) the Purchaser elects not to purchase the Improved Real Property at the Preston Corners Banking Center as described on Schedule 1.1(a)(1), in which case Purchaser may not purchase Deposit Liabilities associated with the Lake Boone and Falls of Neuse Banking Centers.

Facilities Inspection.













	
  

	
(i)

	
Purchaser shall have the right, at Purchaser’s expense, to inspect the physical condition of the Owned Real Property (collectively, “Building Issues”) during the Inspection Period.  These inspections shall be conducted during regular business hours by qualified inspectors or employees of Purchaser or its affiliates following not less than three (3) business days notice to Seller, and a representative of Seller is entitled to be present at any inspection.  Prior to entry upon the Owned Real Property, Purchaser will confirm to Seller the existence of general liability insurance in coverage amounts reasonably acceptable to Seller.  Any physical disturbance to the Owned Real Property shall be subject to Seller’s prior approval, which may be subject to such reasonable repair and restoration conditions as Seller may impose (including, without limitation, the obligation to repair any disturbed area to its condition immediately prior to that disturbance).  Purchaser promptly shall provide Seller with copies of any and all written reports in connection with those inspections, at no cost to Seller, upon Seller’s request.













	
  

	
(ii)

	
Purchaser shall return the Owned Real Property to the condition existing prior to any tests and inspections performed by Purchaser or Purchaser’s representatives, as determined by Seller in its reasonable discretion.  Purchaser shall indemnify, hold harmless and, if requested by Seller (in Seller’s sole discretion), defend (with counsel approved by Seller) Seller, together with Seller’s affiliates, parent and subsidiary entities, successors, assigns, partners, managers, employees, officers, directors, shareholders, counsel, representatives, agents, from and against any and all damages,











  





13











  








mechanics’ liens, liabilities, losses, demands, actions, causes of action, claims, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and the cost of appeals) from or relating to Purchaser’s or its employee’s, agent’s, representative’s, or contractor’s entry onto the Owned Real Property, and any inspections or other matters performed by Purchaser with respect to the Owned Real Property.  The provisions of this Section 1.10 shall survive Closing or any termination of this Agreement.








	
  

	
(d)

	
Correction of Defects.













	
  

	
If Purchaser discovers a material defect in a Banking Center with respect to Building Issues or discovers an Environmental Issue (each a “Defect”), Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing within the Inspection Period.  Seller shall have no obligation to cure any Defect.  If Seller is unable or unwilling to cure any Defects to Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction, Purchaser shall have the option (upon written notice to Seller) to either (x) accept the Defect and receive the Owned Real Property in its then existing condition and proceed to Closing (without a Purchase Price adjustment), or (y) terminate this Agreement solely with respect to the affected Owned Real Property and purchase the Deposit Liabilities related to the associated Banking Center and the other Banking Centers, unless: (i) the Purchaser elects not to purchase the Improved Real Property at the Plymouth Banking Center as described on Schedule 1.1(a)(1), in which case Purchaser may not purchase the Deposit Liabilities associated with either the Roper or Plymouth Banking Centers; or (ii) the Purchaser elects not to purchase the Improved Real Property at the Preston Corners Banking Center as described on Schedule 1.1(a)(1), in which case Purchaser may not purchase Deposit Liabilities associated with the Lake Boone and Falls of Neuse Banking Centers.













	
  

	
(e)

(i)


 



	
  

	
Except as stated in this Agreement, Seller shall bear all risk of loss or damage to the Owned Real Property from all causes until the Closing; provided, however, Seller shall have no obligation to repair such loss or damage.







 



	
  

	
(ii)

	
If before Closing: (a) any material portion of any Owned Real Property is destroyed by fire, the elements or by any other casualty (a “Casualty”), or (b) any material portion of any Owned Real Property is taken by eminent domain or made the subject of condemnation proceedings (a “Taking”), Seller shall give Purchaser prompt written notice thereof and Purchaser may elect, by written notice to Seller within ten (10) business days after Purchaser has received written notice of such event from Seller (and the Closing shall be extended for two (2) business days after the expiration of such termination election period, if applicable), to terminate this Agreement without further liability, solely with respect to the affected











  





14











  








Owned Real Property and all assets described in Section 1.1(a) related to such Real Property and/or the Banking Center located thereon, except for obligations set forth in this Agreement that expressly survive termination.  In no event shall Purchaser have the right to purchase the assets relating to a Banking Center without also taking the corresponding Owned Real Property, and vice-versa.  If before Closing a portion of any Owned Real Property is destroyed by a Casualty (as to less than a “material portion”) or a Taking occurs (which does not affect a “material portion” of any Owned Real Property), Purchaser shall proceed to Closing subject to the provisions of Section 1.10(e)(iii).  For the purposes of this Section 1.10, a “material portion” of any Owned Real Property shall mean (i) any portion of the Owned Real Property where the cost to restore same (as reasonably determined by Seller) exceeds $200,000 and (ii) with respect to a Taking only, any portion which materially affects access to or parking upon the Owned Real Property solely to the extent such remaining parking is not in compliance with applicable ordinances.








	
  

	
(iii)

	
If this Agreement is not terminated pursuant to Section 1.10(e)(ii), then at the Closing the following shall occur:

Seller shall credit on account of the Purchase Price the amount, as applicable, of all condemnation awards actually received by Seller or any sums of money collected by Seller (whether retained by Seller or paid directly to a holder of any lien on the Owned Real Property) under its policies of insurance or renewals thereof insuring against the loss in question to the extent same have not been expended for the purpose of restoration or repair of the Owned Real Property.







 



	
  

	
(B)

	
In the case of a Taking, Seller shall assign, transfer and set over to Purchaser all of Seller's right, title and interest in and to (a) such further sums payable thereunder, and (b) any awards that may be made with respect to any pending or future condemnation proceeding.







 



	
  

	
(C)

	
In the case of a Casualty, Seller shall assign, transfer and set over to Purchaser all of Seller's right, title, and interest in and to the proceeds of any casualty insurance policies payable to Seller.







 



	
  

	
(D)

	
In the case of a Casualty, Seller shall credit against the Purchase Price the amount of any deductible under its insurance policy, but not to exceed the amount required to repair or replace the portion of the Owned Real Property damaged or destroyed.







 



	
  

	
(E)

	
All provisions of this Subparagraph (e) shall also be applicable to:  (i) any Leased Real Property subject, however, to the rights of the







 






  





15











  








landlord under the Real Property Leases; and (ii) to the Banking Centers listed on Schedule 6.23.


 



	
  

	
(f)

	
Development Bonds.













	
  

	
If Seller has outstanding bonds, letters of credit, or other security issued in favor of a municipality or agency related to the development of any Unimproved Real Property (the “Seller Bonds”) Purchaser shall cause to be issued to such municipality or agency, effective at Closing, any replacement bonds or letters of credit that are necessary to obtain the release of the Seller Bonds.

Section 6.20.                                Electronic Installation.







Purchaser shall have a reasonable right to enter the Banking Centers in the thirty (30) calendar day period prior to the Closing Date to install necessary wiring for Purchaser’s teller terminals and data processing equipment to be utilized after the Closing, subject to satisfaction by Purchaser of the following conditions:








	
  

	
(a)

	
reasonable advance notice of such entry shall be given to Seller, such entry shall comply with Seller’s security procedures and Seller shall have the right to have its employees or contractors present to inspect the work being done;













	
  

	
(b)

	
all such work shall be done so as to cause the minimum practicable interference with Seller’s business in the Banking Centers; and













	
  

	
(c)

	
all such work will be done in compliance with applicable laws and governmental regulations, and Purchaser shall be responsible for the procurement, at Purchaser’s expense, of all required governmental or administrative permits and approvals.












Purchaser agrees that if, for any reason, the transactions contemplated hereunder are not consummated, Purchaser will, at its sole cost and expense, remove any installations it shall have made in the Banking Centers and shall repair and restore the Banking Centers to their condition immediately prior to such installation.







Section 6.21.                                Actions With Respect to IRA and Keogh Plan Deposit Liabilities.







Seller shall (i) resign as of the Closing Time as the Trustee/Custodian of each IRA Deposit Liability and as the Trustee/Custodian of each Keogh Plan Deposit Liability of which it is the Trustee/Custodian, if any, (ii) to the extent permitted by the documentation governing each such IRA or Keogh Plan, appoint Purchaser as successor Trustee/Custodian of each such IRA or Keogh Plan, and Purchaser agrees to accept each such trusteeship/custodianship and assume all fiduciary obligations with respect thereto as of the Closing Time, and (iii) deliver to the grantor or named fiduciary of each such IRA or Keogh Plan, respectively, such notice of the foregoing as is required by the documentation governing such IRA or Keogh Plan.

Section 6.22.                                Closing of Roper Banking Center.







Seller hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file all such applications, notices and other documents with respect thereto with the appropriate regulatory authorities as required by law to close the Roper Banking Center on or before the Closing Date.  However, the failure by Seller to close the Roper Banking Center prior to the Closing Date shall not provide either Seller or Purchaser a basis upon which to terminate the transactions contemplated by the Agreement.  If closing the Roper Banking Center (the “Roper Closing”) (i) takes place on or prior to the Closing Date or (ii) must take place after the Closing Date due to regulatory notice waiting period requirements (“Waiting Periods”), Purchaser agrees to pay the purchase price in Section 1.2(a)(5) of this Agreement on the date of the Roper Closing, so long as Seller has filed all such applications, notices and other documents with respect to the Roper Closing with the appropriate regulatory authorities prior to the Closing Date.  Seller agrees to close the Roper Banking Center as soon as practicable after all Waiting Periods have expired.







Section 6.23.                                New Lease Agreements.







Seller and Purchaser will execute at Closing a triple-net lease agreement for each of those Banking Centers listed on Schedule 6.23 (the “New Real Property Leases”), at the per square foot rental rate and for the term specified on such Schedule.  The form of the lease agreement to be used for each lease is attached hereto as Exhibit 6.23.  Seller and Purchaser hereby agree to negotiate and execute each New Real Property Lease to be effective as of the Effective Time.  For purposes of this Agreement, the Banking Centers listed on Schedule 6.23 will not be deemed to be Real Property.







Section 6.24.                                Amendment of Agreement.







If the parties determine that they will be unable to obtain regulatory approval or do so in a timely fashion because of the impact on competition in any of the markets in which the Banking Centers identified on Schedule 6.24 are located, the parties shall amend this Agreement to remove from the transactions contemplated hereunder those Banking Centers identified on such Schedule, and the assets and Deposit Liabilities related thereto, such that regulatory approval can reasonably be obtained.
