                             STOCKHOLDERS' AGREEMENT

      This STOCKHOLDERS' AGREEMENT (this "AGREEMENT"), dated as of November 20,
2002, is entered into by and between BancWest Corporation, a Delaware
corporation ("BW"), and BNP Paribas S.A., a societe anonyme or limited liability
banking corporation organized under the laws of the Republic of France ("BNP
PARIBAS").

      WHEREAS, BW is the owner of all 3,276,535 of the issued and outstanding
shares of common stock, par value $5 per share (the "COMMON STOCK"), of Bank of
the West, a California banking corporation (the "BANK");

      WHEREAS, in connection with the acquisition of United California Bank, BW
borrowed $800 million (the "LOAN") on an interim basis from the New York branch
of BNP Paribas and desires to restructure said financing in compliance with the
terms of the application to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
seeking approval of the acquisition of United California Bank by setting up a
long term financing structure on terms which BW regards to be in its best
interests;

      WHEREAS, in order to refinance the Loan, BW has agreed to sell to BNP
Paribas, and BNP Paribas has agreed to purchase from BW, 485,413 shares of
Common Stock (the "MINORITY SHARES") for their $800 million fair value (the
"ORIGINAL PURCHASE PRICE"), pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of
the date hereof, between BW and BNP Paribas (the "STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT"),
and BW will use the sale proceeds to repay the current $800 million outstanding
principal balance of the interim debt; and

      WHEREAS, BW wishes to retain the right to repurchase the Minority Shares,
pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, in order
to be able to restore its position as the owner of all of the issued and
outstanding Common Stock;

      NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations and warranties
contained in this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt, adequacy and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, and intending
to be legally bound, the parties hereto agree as follows:

                                   ARTICLE I

share capital, (iii) a transaction is approved by the Bank's board of directors
which would cause the Bank to cease to join in filing consolidated tax returns

modification, or as a result of the construction of any law, rule or regulation
by a relevant authority, whether such law, rule, regulation or authority be
French, United States, European, foreign, state, provincial or local, it becomes
illegal or impractical for the parties hereto to maintain their participation in
this Agreement, or (v) the parties reasonably agree, after good faith
discussions, that there has been a change in applicable law, rules or
regulations (or judicial, administrative or regulatory interpretation thereof)
that, in the good faith judgment of the parties, is reasonably likely to
adversely impact the economic benefits of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement to either party.

      "DISTRIBUTION" means any dividend or other distribution paid by the Bank
on all or any part of the Common Stock, whether paid in cash or property or for

paid in a form other than cash being determined for purposes of this Agreement
to be the fair value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of
Directors of the Bank); provided, however that "Distribution" shall not include
a pro rata dividend or distribution of shares of the Common Stock or other pro
rata adjustment that is subject to Section 6.2, or any amount received as

Common Stock by the Bank.

      "FUTURE VALUE" of any payment means the amount of such payment, together
with interest on such payment, from the date of payment to the date for which

      1.2 Headings. The headings and subheadings in this Agreement are included
for convenience and identification only and are in no way intended to describe,
interpret, define or limit the scope, extent or intent of this Agreement or any
provision hereof.

                                  ARTICLE II

                                 DISTRIBUTIONS

      2.1 Distribution Policy. Each of BNP Paribas and BW, as the owner of a
portion of the Common Stock, shall be free to exercise the full extent of its
voting rights as it deems appropriate in its sole discretion under applicable
state law and the Bank's bylaws and articles of incorporation. Separate from the
election of directors of the Bank and all other voting powers with respect to
the Common Stock, each of BNP Paribas and BW may request the Board of Directors
of the Bank to declare dividends and to cause the Bank to make Distributions on
the Common Stock out of available earnings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is
expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto that the declaration and
payment by the Bank of dividends and other Distributions on the Common Stock is
within the sole discretion of the Bank's Board of Directors, and nothing in this
Agreement shall give the parties any rights or claims against the Bank or any
member of the Board of Directors of the Bank regarding the declaration or
payment of dividends or other Distributions on the Common Stock (or any
determination not to declare and pay dividends or other Distributions).

      2.2 Limitations on Distributions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
stated in this Article II, neither BNP Paribas nor BW shall take any action, or
cause or request any member of the Board of Directors of the Bank to take any
action, that would result in the Bank declaring, making or paying a Distribution
to the extent such Distribution would violate Sections 640 et. seq. of the
California Financial Code (or any successor provision), the Federal Deposit
Insurance Act, the rules, regulations, policies or other requirements of the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board or the
California Department of Financial Institutions or any other applicable foreign,
federal, state or local laws, rules, regulations, policies or Injunctions or
would result in the Bank or any other banking subsidiary of BW no longer being
"well capitalized" under the rules, regulations and policies of the United
States federal banking authorities.

                                  ARTICLE III

                                  CALL OPTION

      3.1 Call Option. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in
this Agreement, BW shall have the unconditional right (the "CALL RIGHT") to
purchase from BNP Paribas all or a portion of the Minority Shares on the Closing
Date (as defined below) at an

                                       3
<PAGE>
aggregate price (the "CALL PRICE") for such number of Minority Shares to be
purchased equal to the product of (a) the total of (i) $800 million plus (ii)
4.39% per annum of the Original Purchase Price accruing from the Original
Transaction Date to the Closing Date (compounded quarterly, on March 31, June
30, September 30 and December 31 of each year and calculated on the basis of a
365 day year and the number of days actually elapsed since the Original
Transaction Date) minus (iii) the aggregate amount of the Future Value as of the
Closing Date of all Distributions paid on the Minority Shares from the Original
Transaction Date to the Closing Date (provided, that any Distribution with a
record date prior to the Closing Date but not yet paid by the Closing Date shall
be treated as if it was paid on the Closing Date), plus (iv) $5,000,000,
multiplied by (b) the quotient of (i) the number of Minority Shares that BW is
purchasing on such Closing Date divided by (ii) the total number of Minority
Shares subject to the Agreement on the date hereof. To the extent BW exercises
the Call Right with respect to less than all of the Minority Shares, it may
exercise the Call Right on one or more future occasions in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement (except to the extent BNP Paribas previously has
exercised its Put Right (as defined below)). Appropriate adjustments to this
formula using similar terms and conditions shall be made by the parties if any
of the Minority Shares are redeemed while Minority Shares are still held by BNP
Paribas.

      3.2 Failure to Exercise Call Right. In the event that (A) BW does not
exercise its Call Right with respect to all of the Minority Shares pursuant to
the delivery to BNP Paribas of one or more Call Exercise Notices (as defined
below) on or before December 22, 2011, or (B) an event described in clauses (i),
(ii), (iii) or (iv) of the definition of Acceleration Event occurs and is
continuing or the parties hereto reach an agreement described in clause (v) of
the definition of Acceleration Event and BW does not exercise its Call Right
with respect to all of the Minority Shares pursuant to the delivery to BNP
Paribas of a Call Exercise Notice on or before the 90th day following such event
or agreement, then commencing 30 days after the last day on which BW could have
exercised its Call Right, BNP Paribas shall have the unconditional right (the
"PUT RIGHT") to require BW to purchase all of the Minority Shares then owned by
BNP Paribas at an aggregate price (the "Put Price") for such number of Minority
Shares to be purchased equal to the product of (a) the total of (i) $800 million
plus (ii) 4.39% per annum of the Original Purchase Price accruing from the
Original Transaction Date to the Closing Date (compounded quarterly on March 31,
June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year and calculated on the basis
of a 365 day year and the number of days actually elapsed since the Original
Transaction Date) minus (iii) the aggregate amount of the Future Value as of the
Closing Date of all Distributions paid on the Minority Shares from the Original
Transaction Date to the Closing Date (provided, that any Distribution with a
record date prior to the Closing Date but not yet paid by the Closing Date shall
be treated as if it was paid on the Closing Date), plus (iv) $50,000,000,
multiplied by (b) the quotient of (i) the number of Minority Shares that BNP
Paribas has required BW to purchase on such Closing Date divided by (ii) the
total number of Minority Shares subject to the Agreement on the date hereof.
Appropriate adjustments to this formula using similar terms and conditions shall
be made by the parties if any of the Minority Shares are redeemed while Minority
Shares are still held by BNP Paribas. BNP Paribas may give notice to BW of its
intention to exercise its Put Right ("PUT EXERCISE NOTICE") beginning at the
time such Put Right shall arise and at the latest 30 days after such time (but
in no event later than February 22, 2012).

                                       4
<PAGE>
      3.3 Call Exercise Notice. BW may exercise its Call Right by giving a
notice (a "CALL EXERCISE NOTICE") to BNP Paribas of its intention to exercise
the Call Right in whole or, from time to time, in part:

            (a) at any time from and including November 23 to and including
December 22 of each year from and including 2004 to and including 2011; and/or

            (b) on the occurrence of an event described in clause (i), (ii),
(iii) or (iv) of the definition of Acceleration Event that is continuing, or the
parties hereto reach an agreement described in clause (v) of the definition of
Acceleration Event, at any time from and after such event or agreement to and
including the 90th day following such event or agreement (but in no event later
than December 22, 2011).

Each Call Exercise Notice shall specify the number of Minority Shares to be
purchased.

BW shall have exercised its Call Right, or (B) the Put Price, in the event BNP
Paribas shall have exercised its Put Right.

            (b) Subject to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent
contained in this Article III, the closing (the "CLOSING,") with respect to a
particular purchase and sale of the Minority Shares pursuant to Section 3.1 or
3.2 shall take place at 10:00 a.m. San Francisco, California time at the offices

Closing Date: (i) if BW has delivered a Call Exercise Notice pursuant to Section
3.3(a), January 7 of the year following the year in which such Call Exercise
Notice has been delivered, or (ii) if BW has delivered a Call Exercise Notice
pursuant to Section 3.3(b) or BNP Paribas has delivered a Put Exercise Notice,

Exercise Notice. BNP Paribas shall designate an account or accounts to which BW
shall wire the Call Price or the Put Price, as the case may be, in accordance
with Section 3.7 (including the amount to be wired to each such account) within
five Business Days of receipt of the Call Exercise Notice or delivery of the Put
Exercise Notice.

      3.5 Conditions to BW's Purchase of the Minority Shares. The purchase of
any or all of the Minority Shares by BW pursuant to this Article III is subject
to the satisfaction of the following conditions at or prior to the Closing of
such purchase, unless waived by BW in its sole discretion:

transactions contemplated herein, and any applicable waiting periods shall have
expired or been terminated.

      3.7 Delivery and Payment. At each Closing:

            (a) BNP Paribas shall deliver to BW (i) certificates for the
appropriate number of Minority Shares duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by
appropriate stock powers, in either case signed exactly as the name of the
registered holder appears on the certificates, with the signatures on such
certificates or stock powers guaranteed by a financial institution that is a
participant in the Security Transfer Agents Medallion Program, the New York
Stock Exchange Medallion Signature Guarantee Program or the Stock Exchange

title to the Minority Shares shall not pass from BNP Paribas to BW until the

            (b) BW shall pay the Purchase Price with respect to the Minority

its officers to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of BNP Paribas,
any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances, letters of transmittal,

Minority Shares to, and the vesting of title thereto in, BW.

      3.9 Specific Performance. Each of BW and BNP Paribas agrees that the right
and obligation of BW to purchase the Minority Shares, and the right and
obligation of BNP Paribas to transfer the Minority Shares to BW, pursuant to
this Article III shall (subject to applicable law) be subject to specific
performance, that the options described in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 may be settled
only by physical delivery of certificates representing the Minority Shares and,
for the avoidance of doubt, that BNP Paribas shall not be entitled to satisfy
its obligations, or exercise its

                                       6
<PAGE>
rights, under this Agreement by paying BW the excess of the value of the
Minority Shares over the Purchase Price. Both BW and BNP Paribas acknowledge and
agree that damages shall not be an adequate remedy for breach of BNP Paribas'
obligation to transfer the Minority Shares to BW pursuant to Section 3.1 or BW's
obligation to purchase the Minority Shares from BNP Paribas pursuant to Section
3.2. Accordingly, except as provided in Section 6.9 hereof, during the term of
this agreement, BNP Paribas shall not transfer the Minority Shares without the
prior consent of BW.
