 Exhibit (10)(xvi) 
 Bank of Oak Ridge 
 Management Incentive Plan 
 Administrative Rules 

 Bank of Oak Ridge 
 Management Incentive Plan 
 1. Purpose 
 The purpose of the Bank of Oak Ridge Management Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) is to provide key employees of Bank of Oak Ridge (the
“Bank”) with the opportunity to receive payments of additional compensation distributed based upon the earnings of the Bank, and on the achievement of a broad set of corporate and/or individual objectives (the “Objectives”). The
Plan provides an incentive to employees to enhance the size and earnings of the Bank, within the constraints of safe, sound banking practices. 
 At the same time it must be emphasized that the Plan in no way contravenes the importance of either long-term goal achievement or the proper exercise of appropriate management accountability. These goals and areas of accountability include,
but are not limited to, the following items: 
  

	 	1.	Collection, recovery, charge-off, and bankruptcy activity. 

  

	 	2.	Maintenance and increase in market share through salesmanship and customer service. 

  

	 	3.	Continued salesmanship (call programs) and improved customer service. 

  

	 	4.	Employee management and development (staff supervision, tracking and cross-training, employee turnover, etc.) 

  

	 	5.	Development of new and better ways of doing business. 

  

	 	6.	Appropriate audit and documentation procedures. 

  

	 	7.	Responsible management of fixed assets/resources. 

  

	 	8.	Adherence to all Bank policy and philosophy. 

  

	 	9.	Maintenance of the highest ethical standards. 

 It is
anticipated that the limited amount of incentive potential available through the Plan, as compared to the size of salaries and incentives paid for performance of these long term management accountabilities, in conjunction with the controls built
into the performance measures in the Plan, will create the appropriate focus. The Board of Directors, through the Corporate Governance Compensation and Nominating Committee (the” Compensation Committee” or “Committee”), and the
Chief Executive Officer administers the plan. 
 At the Committee’s discretion funds may be used to pay discretionary bonuses. As an
example an employee with outstanding overall performance could receive a discretionary bonus in recognition of performance unaccounted for through the plan. It is understood that discretionary bonuses will be an exception as opposed to the rule.

 2. Effective Date and Plan Period 
 The Effective Date of the Plan shall be January 1, 2009. The Plan Period shall be divided into two segments; (i) January through June and (ii) July through December of each calendar year. 

 3. Eligibility 
 An individual shall be eligible to become a Participant in the Plan who satisfied the following requirements: 
  

	 	a.	The individual is an employee of the Bank. For this purpose, an individual shall be considered to be an “employee” if there exists between the individual and the Bank the
legal and bona fide relationship of employer and employee. An individual shall be considered an employee if he/she is regularly scheduled to work at least 20 hours per week. 

  

	 	b.	The individual employees’ position is considered by the Committee to be “key” and to have a direct impact on the size and earnings of the Bank.

  

	 	c.	The individual is approved by the Compensation Committee as a Participant in the Plan. 

 4. Participation 
 Prior to the beginning of each Plan Period, the Chief Executive Officer
shall recommend to the Compensation Committee each individual or position eligible to become a Participant in the Plan (a “Participant”) with respect to such Plan Period. The Compensation Committee in its discretion shall approve
participants. In the event of the promotion of an employee or the hiring of a new employee during the Plan Period, the Compensation Committee, upon the recommendation of the Chief Executive Officer, may approve the entry of a Participant into the
Plan Period. However, if the position has been previously approved, no such approval shall be required. In such case, the Incentive Award determined under Section 5 with respect to such Participant shall be the percentage as determined by the
Compensation Committee for the position multiplied by the individual’s job salary grade range mid-point during the period of time he or she was eligible to participate. However, in no event shall an employee be a Participant for less than the
full final three months of the Plan Period. Participation in the Plan shall be subject to the provisions of the Plan and such other terms and conditions, as the Compensation Committee shall provide. 
 5. Incentive Award 
 5.1
Subject to Section 5.2, each Participant for a Plan Period shall receive an Incentive Award determined by multiplying the percentage achieved of each of the individual’s objectives (“key drivers”) by a weighting factor (positive
or negative). A Potential Award is then multiplied by the sum of the weights derived. When no individual objectives related to a Plan Period have been determined for a Participant, then the Participant’s objectives for the purpose of this Plan
shall be the Corporate Objectives approved by the Committee at the beginning of such Plan Period. 

 For purposes of this section 5, the following definitions shall apply: 
 “Potential Award” means with respect to each Participant for the Plan Period a dollar amount determined by multiplying the individual’s
salary by a percentage designed by the Compensation Committee. The Potential Award represents the Incentive Award payable to the Participant in the event that Corporate and Participant’s personal objectives are achieved for the Plan Period. In
the event that no personal objectives are established for a Plan Period, the Potential Award represents the Incentive Award payable to the Participant in the event that all of the Corporate Objectives established at the beginning of the Plan Period
are fully achieved for the Plan Period. 
 “Adjusted Potential Award” is the pro-rata share of a pool established by the sum of all
participants’ Potential awards in the Plan Period. The pool is accrued based upon the achievements of net income (pre-incentive, pretax) objectives established by the CEO and approved by the Compensation Committee. 
 “Incentive Award” means by multiplying the actual cash value paid to the participant at the end of the Plan Period, determined by multiplying
the percentage of each of the individual’s objectives (established by the Chief Executive Officer), by weighting factor (positive or negative) established by the Chief Executive Officer, and multiplying that by the adjusted potential Award
pro-rata as to salary. 
 5.2 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, the Compensation Committee shall review and approve the
payment of the Incentive Award as determined under Section 5.1 and, in its discretion, may adjust the amount of the payment as it deems necessary to meet the purpose of this Plan and the best interest of the Bank. In no event shall an Incentive
Award be paid to a Participant who in the sole determination of the Compensation Committee has violated established policies and practices of the Bank as reflected in the minutes of the Board. Where interpretations of achievement of objectives are
inconsistent, the judgment of the Compensation Committee will prevail. 
 Individual objectives are not to be achieved at the expense of the
overall Bank objectives or long-term objectives of any individual. For example, if an employee achieves individual objectives, but in so doing clearly creates unnecessary strife among peers or subordinates, violates policy, avoids behaviors that
develop business in the long term, or in any way ignores the best interest of the Bank, then no Incentive Award will be paid. 
 6.
Termination of Employment during Plan Period 
 The Participant shall not receive an Incentive Award with respect to a Plan Period
if, for reasons other than a Termination Event as defined in this Section 6, the employment of the Participant by the Bank, or a Subsidiary, is terminated during the Plan Period or the duties of the position of the Participant are changed
during the Plan Period so that he/she is no longer in a position as described in Section 3. The following shall each constitute a “Termination Event”: 
  

	 	a.	Death of the Participant while employed by the Bank. 

	 	b.	Retirement of the Participant from the Bank with the approval of the Board. 

  

	 	c.	Disability of the Participant while employed by the Bank. For this purpose, the term “disability” shall mean the inability of a Participant, by reason of any medically
determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or to be of long continued or of indefinite duration, to perform his duties for the Bank. The determination of disability shall be made by the Compensation Committee
based on medical evidence from an independent physician selected by the Participant with the approval of the Compensation Committee; and, shall date from the original cessation of work. 

 In the event of a Termination Event, the Participant or his Beneficiary shall receive an Incentive Award with respect to such Plan Period equal to the
amount determined under Section 5 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full calendar months during the Plan Period in which he was a Participant prior to the Termination Event and the denominator of which is twelve.
Participants in multiple selected positions, each determined to be a participant position shall receive an amount reflecting the time-weighted service in each position. Participants departing a Participant position for a non-Participant position,
provided that such departure is not pursuant to poor performance, shall receive an award reflecting the period of the year in which they served. 
 7. Leaves of Absence 
 In general, the determination of award for an individual who has taken a leave of absence
during the Plan Period shall mirror the pro-rata payout provisions of termination. However, the Compensation Committee, acting on behalf of the Board of Directors, shall in its sole discretion determine the amount of award in each case so as to
preserve the intent of the Plan. 
 8. Payment of Incentive Awards 
 Unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, the Incentive Award for a Plan Period shall be paid by the Bank in cash to the Participant or
his Beneficiary by the later of (i) ninety days following the end of the Plan Period, or (ii) thirty days following the determination of the actual financial results for the Plan Period and the final achievement of the Participant’s
individual objectives (if applicable). A Participant must be an employee on the day of payment in order to be eligible. 
 9.
Nonassignability of Incentive Awards 
 The right to receive payment of the Incentive Award shall not be assignable or
transferable (including by pledge or hypothecation) other than by will or the laws of intestate succession. 

 10. No Trust Fund: Unsecured Interest 
 A Participant shall have no interest in any fund or specified asset of the Bank. No trust fund shall be created in connection with the Plan or any
Incentive Award, and there shall be no required funding of amounts, which may become payable under this Plan. Any amounts which are or may be set aside under the provisions of this Plan shall continue for all purposes to be a part of the general
assets of the Bank, and no person other than the Bank shall, by virtue of the provisions of this Plan, have any interest in such assets. No right to receive payment from the Bank pursuant to the Plan shall be greater than the right of any unsecured
creditor of the Bank. 
 11. No Right or Obligation of Continued Employment 
 Nothing contained in the Plan shall require the Bank to continue to employ the Participant, nor shall the Participant be required to remain in the
employment of the Bank. 
 12. Withholding 
 There shall be deducted from the payment of the Incentive Award the amount of any tax or other amount required by any governmental authority to be withheld and paid over by the Bank to such authority for the account
of the person entitled to such payment. 
 13. Retirement Plans 
 In no event shall any amounts accrued or payable under this Plan be treated as compensation for the purpose of determining the amount of contributions or
benefits to which a Participant shall be entitled under any retirement plan to which the Bank may be a party. Actual payments (as opposed to accruals) will be treated as compensation for accruing benefits under all retirement/pension plans, if such
plans include bonuses or incentives in their definition of compensation. 
 14. Dilution or Other Adjustments 
 If there is any change in the Bank because of a merger, consolidation or reorganization involving the Bank, the Compensation Committee shall make such
adjustments to any provisions of this Plan, as the Compensation Committee deems desirable to prevent the dilution or enlargement of rights granted hereunder. 
 15. Administration of the Plan 
 The Chief Executive Officer of the Bank with the consent and
approval of the Board shall administer the Plan; provided, that the Compensation Committee shall determine all matters pertaining to the Incentive Award of the Chief Executive Officer. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Compensation
Committee shall have plenary authority in its discretion, among other things, to designate the Participants to receive Incentive Awards, to determine the Potential Award of each Participant, to interpret the Plan and to prescribe, amend and rescind
rules and regulations relating to the Plan, provided that no member of the Board shall take part in any action with respect to the decisions to pay an Incentive Award to such member, or with respect to the terms or conditions of any Incentive Award
awarded to such member. 
  

 16. Amendments and Termination of the Plans 
 The Plan may be amended or terminated at any time by the Board. 
 17. Binding on Successors 
 The obligations of the Bank under the Plan shall be binding upon
any organization, which shall succeed, to all or substantially all of the assets of the Bank, and the term “Bank,” whenever used in the Plan, shall mean and include any such organization after the succession. 
 18. Applicable Law 
 The Plan
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina.Branch Purchase Agreement

the parties as of the Closing Date, with Seller responsible for (or entitled to receive, as the case may 

  

 7 

 
be) all such items which are allocable to the period on or prior to the Closing Date and Purchaser responsible for (or entitled to receive, as the case may

amount shall be included in the Pro-Rata adjustment. The aggregate net amount of such proration shall result in an adjustment (the “Pro-Rata Adjustment”) in the calculation of the Estimated Transfer Amount and the Final Transfer
Amount as provided for in Section 1.6 and Section 1.8, respectively. 
 (b) The Pro-Rata Adjustment shall include the dollar
amount of all security deposits which Seller has paid to lessors or landlords under the Tenant Leases as an amount that Seller is entitled to receive (without proration), as indicated in each Assignment and Assumption of Tenant Leases. 

(c) To the extent that any of the items of income, fees or expenses described in this Section 1.5 are not discovered prior to the preparation of
the Post-Closing Schedule, the parties shall cooperate so that Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, pays any such fee or expense or receives any such income depending upon whether such fee, expense or income relates to the period after, on or
before the Closing Date. 
 (d) All prorations made pursuant to this Section 1.5 shall be based upon the ratio of the number of days
prior to and including the Closing Date related to such item compared to the total number of days related to such item. 
 (e)

there has been conducted under the supervision of such officer a review of all relevant information and data then available, (y) attaching a schedule setting forth Seller’s best estimate of the following, in each case as of the close of
business on the date that is seven (7) calendar days prior to the Closing (the “Estimation Date”): (i) the aggregate amount of the Branch Deposits, including (to the extent not reflected in such aggregate amount) any
accrued and unpaid interest with respect to such Branch Deposits (the “Estimated Deposits”); (ii) the aggregate gross book value of the Loans, including (to the extent not reflected in such gross book value) all Loan Interest
as of the Estimation Date, minus an aggregate discount equal to 2.0% of the aggregate gross book value of the Loans (which discount, for the avoidance of doubt, takes into account any loan loss reserves attributable to the Loans) (such
book value, as so adjusted, the “Estimated Loan Payment”); (iii) the aggregate amount of the Cash (the “Estimated Cash”); and (iv) the Pro-Rata Adjustment (the “Estimated 

  

 8 

 
Pro-Rata Adjustment”), in the case of clauses (i) through (iv), determined in accordance with Seller GAAP and (z) stating that the
attached schedule has been prepared in good faith and in compliance with this Section 1.6. Each such estimate shall be subject to the prior written approval of Purchaser, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 

(b) In connection with the sale by Seller to Purchaser of the Assets and the assumption by Purchaser of the Deposits and Other Liabilities as
provided for herein, at the Closing, (x) if the Estimated Transfer Amount is positive, Seller shall transfer to Purchaser in immediately available funds, by wire transfer to an account designated in writing by Purchaser to Seller at least two
(2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (“Purchaser’s Account”), an amount equal to the absolute value of the Estimated Transfer Amount and (y) if the Estimated Transfer Amount is negative, Purchaser shall
transfer to Seller in immediately available funds, by wire transfer to an account designated in writing by Seller to Purchaser at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (“Seller’s Account”), an amount equal
to the absolute value of the Estimated Transfer Amount. For purposes of this Agreement: 
 (i) “Estimated Target
Amount” means an amount equal to the sum of (i) the amount determined in accordance with Schedule 1.6(b)(i) (the “Deposit Premium”), (ii) the Estimated Loan Payment, (iii) the Estimated Cash and (iv) the
estimated aggregate book value (net of accumulated depreciation) as of the Closing Date of the Personal Property, the Leasehold Improvements and the Owned Real Properties as set forth on the Book Value Schedule delivered pursuant to
Section 4.16 plus the Estimated Pro-Rata Adjustment (if such amount is owing to Seller) or minus the Estimated Pro-Rata Adjustment (if such amount is owing to Purchaser). 
 (ii) “Estimated Transfer Amount” means the Estimated Deposits minus the Estimated Target Amount.

 Section 1.7 Post-Closing Schedule. 
 (a) Within forty-five (45) Business Days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller a schedule (the “Post-Closing Schedule”) setting forth the actual amount of (i) the
aggregate amount of the Deposits, including (to the extent not reflected in such aggregate amount) any accrued and unpaid interest with respect to such Deposits, (ii) the aggregate gross book value of the Loans, including (to the extent not
reflected in such book value) all Loan Interest, minus an aggregate discount equal to 2.0% of the aggregate gross book value of the Loans (which discount, for the avoidance of doubt, takes into account any loan loss reserves
attributable to the Loans), (iii) the aggregate amount of the Cash, (iv) the aggregate book value (net of accumulated depreciation) as of the Closing Date of the Personal Property, the Leasehold Improvements and the Owned Real Properties
and (v) the Pro-Rata Adjustment, in each case as of the close of business on the Closing Date. Seller shall cooperate with Purchaser in the preparation of the Post-Closing Schedule. Purchaser shall provide Seller and its independent accountants
with reasonable access to the books, records, facilities and personnel of the Branch Offices in a manner which does not unduly disrupt or interfere with the operation of the Branch Offices so that Seller and its independent accountants may review
the Post-Closing Schedule. In each case, such book value shall be determined in accordance with Seller GAAP. 
  

 9 

 (b) Within thirty (30) calendar days after delivery of the Post-Closing Schedule to Seller (the
“Review Period”), Seller may dispute all or any portion of the Post-Closing Schedule by giving written notice (a “Notice of Disagreement”) to Seller setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such dispute
(hereinafter called a “Disagreement”). The failure by Seller to deliver a Notice of Disagreement during the Review Period shall constitute an irrevocable acceptance by Seller of the Post-Closing Schedule in the form delivered by
Purchaser. If Seller delivers a Notice of Disagreement during the Review Period, the parties shall promptly commence good faith negotiations with a view to resolving such Disagreement. If Purchaser shall not dispute all or any portion of the Notice
of Disagreement by giving written notice to Seller setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such dispute within ten (10) Business Days following the delivery of the Notice of Disagreement, Purchaser shall be deemed to have irrevocably
accepted the Post-Closing Schedule as modified by the Notice of Disagreement. 
 (c) If Purchaser disputes all or any portion of the Notice
of Disagreement within the period specified in the last sentence of Section 1.7(b), and the parties are not able to resolve any Disagreement within fifteen (15) calendar days after the delivery by Purchaser of its dispute of the Notice of
Disagreement, such unresolved Disagreement(s) shall be referred to a nationally recognized accounting firm that is independent in respect of Purchaser and Seller for determination of the disputed amounts in accordance with this Agreement. If
Purchaser and Seller do not agree on the selection of a nationally recognized accounting firm within fifteen (15) calendar days, then the American Arbitration Association shall select such accounting firm. The determination of such firm shall
be final and binding upon the parties and the amount so determined shall be used to complete the final Post-Closing Schedule. Such firm shall render its determination as soon as practicable after referral of the Disagreement. The fees and expenses
of such firm shall be paid one-half (50%) by Purchaser and one-half (50%) by Seller. The parties shall cooperate with each other and such firm with respect to the resolution of any Disagreement, such cooperation to include reasonable

Closing Date using the amounts reflected in the final Post-Closing Schedule. As so recalculated, such amounts are referred to herein as the “Final Deposits”, the “Final Target Amount” and the “Final Transfer
Amount”, respectively. If the Final Transfer Amount is greater than the Estimated Transfer Amount, then Seller shall pay the difference to Purchaser. If the Final Transfer Amount is less than the Estimated Transfer Amount, then, Purchaser
shall pay the difference to Seller. In each case such payment shall be made within three (3) Business Days after the Final Settlement Date by wire transfer in immediately available funds to Seller’s Account or Purchaser’s Account, as

(30) calendar days from receipt of the Proposed Final Allocation to object in writing to such Proposed Final Allocation. If Seller does not object within such period the Proposed Final Allocation shall become final (the “Final
Allocation”). If Seller provides written notice to Purchaser prior to the end of such period that objects to the Proposed Final Allocation, Purchaser and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to agree on the Final Allocation. If Purchaser
and Seller do not agree on the Final Allocation within forty-five (45) calendar days of Seller having provided written notice to Purchaser, then any dispute with respect to the Final Allocation shall be resolved by a nationally recognized
accounting firm to be selected in accordance with Section 1.7(c). Any determination of such firm shall be made as soon as practicable and will be final and binding upon the parties. The parties shall sign the Final Allocation once it has been
finalized. Seller and Purchaser agree to (i) be bound, and cause any of their Affiliates to be bound, by the Final Allocation, (ii) prepare and file their Tax Returns on a basis consistent with the Final Allocation unless required to do
otherwise under Applicable Law and (iii) take no position, and cause any of their Affiliates to take no position, inconsistent with the Final Allocation on any applicable Tax Return or in any administrative or judicial examination or other

 (viii) All payments made up to the Closing Date on the Loans have been properly credited to the

terms.

in Seller’s possession or of which Seller has knowledge, which written materials contain information that would have an adverse effect on Purchaser’s ability to use and operate the Owned Real Properties as they are currently being used and
operated, or on the marketability of the Owned Real Properties. The written materials related to the Owned Real Properties delivered to Purchaser are true, accurate and complete in all material respects. 
 (c) All of the buildings, structures and improvements located on any of the Owned Real Properties, including, without limitation, the roofs, plumbing,
heating, ventilation, air conditioning, electrical, drainage, sewer utility supplies, road and irrigation systems, are in good working order, free of material defects, suitable for use in the operation of the Branch Business as currently conducted
by Seller and in all material respects compliance with all Applicable Laws. There is no material construction affecting any portion of any of the Owned Real Properties which is not substantially completed as of the date hereof. The consummation of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not prevent, under the terms of any contract, agreement or instrument relating to the Real Properties, Purchaser from continuing to use or possess any portion of any of the Owned Real Properties
in the same manner such Owned Real Properties were used or possessed by Seller immediately prior to the Closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
 (d) The Owned Real Properties have water supply, storm and sanitary sewer facilities, access to telephone, gas, and electricity connections, fire protection, drainage, means of ingress and egress to and from public
highways and, without limitation, other public utilities, in each case adequate to conduct the Branch Business in the manner currently conducted by Seller. The parking facilities located on the Owned Real Properties, if any, meet all requirements
imposed by all Applicable Laws (including zoning laws). All of such public utilities are installed and operating, and all installation and connection charges will have been paid in full on or prior to the Closing Date. Seller has not received any

services presently serving any of the Owned Real Properties. 
 (e) Seller is not obligated under, or a party to, any option, right of first

Leases, no third party has any right to use, lease, possess and/or occupy any portion of the Owned Real Properties and there are no oral or written agreements between Seller and any other third party providing such third party the right to use,
occupy or posses all or any portion of any of the Owned Real Properties. 
 (f) Each of the Owned Real Properties complies in all material
respects with all requirements of each applicable insurance policy covering such Owned Real Property and Seller has not received from any of the insurers thereunder any notice requiring that any 

  

 22 

 
work be performed at any of the Owned Real Properties. To Sellers’ knowledge, there are no defects or inadequacies in the Owned Real Properties that
would adversely affect the insurability of the same or cause the imposition of extraordinary premiums therefor, or create or be likely to create, a hazard, excessive maintenance costs or material operating deficiencies. 
 Section 2.14 Personal Property. The material Personal Property is in good working condition, subject to ordinary wear and tear and routine
maintenance needs. Section 1.1(a)(vi)(A) of the Seller Disclosure Letter contains a true and correct list of all of the multi-function Ricoh printer/copiers leased by Seller (showing in each case the annual rental, the expiration date thereof
and a brief description of the property covered). The printer/copiers set forth in such list are the only Leased Personal Property (other than any of the Excluded Assets listed on Section 1.2(a)(ii)(B) of the Seller Disclosure Letter) used by
Seller in or relating to the Branch Business. Attached to Section 2.14 of the Seller Discloser Letter is a true and correct copy of the lease for one such printer/copier, and each other lease for the printer/copiers set forth in
Section 1.1(a)(vi)(A) of the Seller Disclosure Letter is in a form that is substantially the same as, and contains the same material terms and conditions as, the lease set forth in Section 2.14 of the Seller Disclosure Letter.

Encumbrances and Encumbrances arising in agreements providing for the license of Licensed IP) all Licensed IP and has all rights necessary to grant the licenses set forth in Section 4.22. The conduct of the business of the Branch Offices, and,
to the knowledge of Seller, the use by Purchaser of the Licensed IP, does not infringe on or otherwise violate the rights of any Person. For purposes of this Agreement, “Licensed IP” means the rights licensed to Purchaser under
Section 4.22.

of such leave and, if known, the date on which the Employee is expected to resume active service. 
 (b) Section 2.16(b) of the Seller
Disclosure Letter includes a complete list of each material Employee Benefit Plan (each a “Material Employee Benefit Plan”). Seller has delivered to Purchaser a correct and complete copy or written summary of each of Seller’s

Act within ninety (90) calendar days prior to the Closing Date. Seller shall update this list up to and including the Closing Date. 
 (f) As of the date hereof, none of Rob Stumbaugh, Doug Woods, Gail Grant, Shaun McCarthy, Gary Geis or David Manley has notified Seller of his or her intention to terminate employment with Seller. There is no proceeding pending or, to the
knowledge of Seller, threatened under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended (or under any state or local wage and hour laws and regulations) against Seller which affects the Branch Business, nor, to the knowledge of Seller, is there any
basis for any of the same. There are no proceedings or disputes pending or, to the knowledge of Seller, threatened by any Employee in relation to his or her terms of employment or in relation to any discrimination issue or the termination of his or
her employment. To the knowledge of Seller, Seller’s labor relations with the Employees are satisfactory. Seller is not a party to or bound by any collective bargaining agreement with respect to the Employees. There is no actual, or to the
knowledge of Seller, threatened labor strike, organized work stoppage or lockout, or any dispute or controversy with a union or with respect to unionization or collective bargaining involving any of the Employees.

penalty or liability other than the underlying liability to pay the Deposit).

obligations under this Agreement and the other documents, agreements or instruments to be executed by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (a “Purchaser Material Adverse
Effect”). Purchaser’s deposits are, subject to applicable monetary limits established by law, insured by the FDIC in accordance with the FDIA, and Purchaser has paid all premiums and assessments and has duly, timely and accurately

delivery by Purchaser of this Agreement or any document, agreement or instrument to be executed by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, nor the consummation by Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, nor compliance by
Purchaser with any of the terms or provisions hereof or thereof, will (i) violate any provision of the Articles of Incorporation of Purchaser or Bylaws of Purchaser or (ii) assuming the consents and approvals referred to in

transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including the transfer of the Assets to Purchaser) except for such consents, approvals, authorizations or filings the failure of which to obtain would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a
Purchaser Material Adverse Effect.

 Section 4.4 Further Assurances. From time to time after the Closing, each party, without further consideration, shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such instruments and take such action as may be

efforts to secure to Purchaser, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, the benefits thereof in some other manner or (ii) which are otherwise not transferable or assignable, to use its commercially reasonable efforts jointly with Purchaser
to secure to Purchaser, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, the benefits and burdens thereof in some other manner (including the exercise of the rights of Seller thereunder); provided, however, that nothing herein shall relieve Seller of its
obligations under Section 4.23, 4.25 and 9.2 and (c) use reasonable efforts to assist Purchaser in the orderly transfer of the Assets and Deposits. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not
constitute an agreement to assign any Assigned Permit, Contract or Lease if an attempted assignment thereof without the consent of a third party thereto would constitute a breach thereof.

the description or name of any service or product from time to time purchased, processed, manufactured or sold by Purchaser and its Affiliates in continuation of the Branch Business. 
 Section 4.23 Landlord’s Consent. Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts so that at least three (3) Business Days
prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall obtain from each lessor or landlord under a Tenant Lease which requires the consent of the lessor or landlord thereunder to an assignment of each such Tenant Lease, a consent to assignment by Seller of
Seller’s interest in such Tenant Leases (“Landlord’s Consent”), each of which Landlord’s Consent shall be substantially in such form attached as Exhibit 4.23; or, if Seller, after reasonable diligence, cannot obtain
such Landlord’s Consents substantially in the form of Exhibit 4.23, then such Landlord’s Consents shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, and shall specifically provide, among other things, that neither Seller (as tenant) or
such landlord (as landlord) is in default under such Tenant Lease. Seller shall have no obligation to offer or pay any consideration in order to obtain any such consents or approvals. All Tenant Leases requiring the lessor’s or landlord’s

(“Title Company”) promptly after the date hereof (but in any event within three (3) Business Days following the date hereof), and a certified ALTA survey (each, a “Survey”), with respect to all of the Owned
Real Properties. Each such survey: (a) shall be an ALTA survey duly certified by the respective surveyor to Purchaser, the Title Company and any other parties elected by Purchaser; (b) shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable
to Purchaser and the Title Company; (c) shall show no encroachments or other survey defects with respect to the buildings, structures and other improvements thereon and which shall show no encroachments or other survey defects with respect to
the property lines and boundaries thereof (in each case, other than Permitted Encumbrances). Each such title commitment shall reflect that upon payment of all premiums and charges due for such title insurance, the respective Sellers shall be vested
with good, marketable and fee simple title to such Owned Real Properties, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances. Each title commitment delivered pursuant to this Section 4.26 shall contain, at Purchaser’s cost and expense, the following
endorsements, but only to the extent available in Colorado: Zoning 3.1 (with parking), access, contiguity, survey (same/same), permanent index (tax parcel) number, owner’s comprehensive, and extended coverage (deletion of standard exceptions),

extent that such Encumbrances can be cured by the payment or expenditure of money, Seller shall be obligated to correct or cure such defect or problem as promptly as practicable. Seller shall cooperate with Purchaser to obtain, on or prior to the
Closing Date, final dated-down title commitments (for the issuance of final title policies) and Purchaser shall pay, at Closing, all costs and expenses of the Title Company for all title insurance work charges, searches, title examinations,
abstracts, all ALTA title insurance premiums and all endorsements. Purchaser shall pay all escrow closing fees and charges (excluding the aforementioned title work charges and search fees set forth in the immediately preceding sentence) at Closing.

 Section 4.27 Real Estate Transfer Declarations. Each of Seller and Purchaser shall execute and deliver to the other at Closing, such
customary and required municipal, county and state real estate transfer declarations as may be required to transfer the Owned Real Properties from Seller to Purchaser.

 ARTICLE V 
 EMPLOYEE MATTERS 
 Section 5.1 Employees. 
 (a) Purchaser shall offer employment to each employee employed by or at
a Branch Office as of the Closing Date and listed on Section 2.16(a) of the Seller Disclosure Letter (as may be amended by written mutual agreement by Purchaser and Seller) (the “Employees”) on terms and conditions
substantially comparable to the terms and conditions of employment provided to employees of Purchaser of comparable positions and tenure, in the aggregate (a “Comparable Position”), which shall include base compensation that
is not less than the base compensation received by such employee from Seller immediately prior to the Closing; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the employees listed on Schedule 5.1(a) of the Seller Disclosure Letter shall not be deemed to
be “Employees” for the purposes hereof. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Purchaser in its efforts to hire the employees receiving offers under this Section 5.1(a) and Seller shall not take, and shall cause
each of its Affiliates not to take, any action which would impede, hinder, interfere or otherwise compete with such efforts. Seller hereby waives and shall cause its Affiliates to waive any noncompetition, nonsolicitation, confidentiality and other
restrictions to the extent such restrictions would otherwise limit the scope of any Transferred Employee’s services to Purchaser or its Affiliates, and hereby assigns to Purchaser the right to enforce any such restrictions to the extent that
they can be assigned and relate to the Branch Business or the Assets. Each offer of employment pursuant to this Section 5.1(a) shall be effective as of the first day following the Closing Date; provided that in the case of any offeree who is in
inactive status or otherwise absent from employment on the Closing Date, such offer shall not be binding upon Purchaser and shall not be deemed to have been accepted by such offeree unless such offeree reports to Purchaser for active work within
twelve (12) weeks after the Closing Date, or if absent by reason of short-term disability, injury or illness, within the period prescribed by Seller’s short-term disability plan, or within six (6) months if no such period is
prescribed by Seller’s short-term disability plan, and with acceptable medical release for regular work or work with reasonable accommodation, or if absent on statutory leave such as maternity or parental leave within the period prescribed by
the applicable statute for such leave. All such Employees who accept Purchaser’s offer of employment and actually perform services for Purchaser on or after the Closing Date are hereinafter referred to as the “Transferred
Employees”. The employment of the Transferred Employees with Purchaser shall be considered effective and their employment by Seller shall terminate and transfer to Purchaser on the date they first perform services for Purchaser (the
“Employment Effective Date”). Notwithstanding anything set forth below or herein to the contrary, (i) nothing in this Agreement shall create any obligation on the part of Purchaser to continue the employment of any employee for
any definite period following the 

  

 40 

 
Employment Effective Date, and (ii) nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Purchaser from altering, amending, or terminating any of its Employee
Benefit Plans, or the participant of any of its employees in such plans, at any time. Seller shall be liable for, and indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from, all claims, demands, costs or other liabilities, including reasonable attorneys’
fees: (i) related to the employees of Seller who do not become Transferred Employees, except to the extent that Purchaser has illegally discriminated against or otherwise acted illegally with respect to such employees; (ii) to the extent
such liability arises from any action, event or course of conduct (except for any action, event or course of conduct by Purchaser) that occurs prior to the Employment Effective Date; or (iii) to the extent such liability arises under or relates
to any Employee Benefit Plan. From and after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall pay, discharge and be responsible for all salary, wages, claims and benefits arising out of or relating to the employment of the Transferred Employees by Purchaser on and
after the Employment Effective Date. 
 (b) Except as otherwise required by the terms of any such Employee Benefit Plan or Applicable Law,
as of the Employee Effective Date, each Transferred Employee shall cease to be covered by any employee welfare benefit plans (as such term is defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA), including plans, programs, policies and arrangements which provide
medical and dental coverage, life and accident insurance, disability coverage, and vacation and severance pay sponsored or maintained by Seller and shall cease accruing benefits under any employee pension plan (as such term is defined in
Section 3(2) of ERISA) sponsored or maintained by Seller. Purchaser shall cause all Employees as of the Employment Effective Date to be eligible to participate in any “employee benefit plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(3) of
ERISA) of Purchaser in which similarly situated employees of Purchaser are generally eligible to participate without duplication of benefits and the “employee welfare benefit plans” and “employee pension plans” (as defined in
Section 3(1) and Section 3(2) of ERISA, respectively) and any other employee benefit plan, program, policy or arrangement of Purchaser in which similarly situated employees of Purchaser are generally eligible to participate. Purchaser
agrees to (i) waive any pre-existing conditions and waiting periods under such plans, and (ii) cause such plans to honor any expenses incurred by the Transferred Employees and their beneficiaries under similar plans of Seller during the
portion of the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs for purposes of satisfying applicable deductible, co-insurance and maximum out-of-pocket expenses. For purposes of any eligibility, seniority requirements, waiting periods, vesting
periods and severance benefits based on length of service in any plan, policy or arrangement of Purchaser for which a Transferred Employee may be eligible after the Closing, Purchaser shall ensure that service by such Employee with Seller shall be
deemed to have been service with Purchaser for all purposes under any such plan, policy or arrangement to the extent such service is credited by Seller under its similar plans; provided that Purchaser shall not be required to treat an
Employee’s service with Seller as service with Purchaser for purposes of determining benefit accrual under any defined benefit plan maintained by Purchaser. 
 (c) With respect to any Employee who was not offered a Comparable Position with Purchaser or who is terminated by Purchaser other than for “cause” within twelve (12) months following the date of this
Agreement, Purchaser shall provide to such Employee the compensation and other benefits described in the First Community Bank Severance Plan Policy listed in Section 2.16(b) of the Seller Disclosure Letter to the extent such Employee is
eligible to receive such compensation and other benefits under the terms of such plan. 
  

 41 

 (d) Seller shall use reasonable efforts to deliver to Purchaser no later than thirty (30) calendar
days after the execution of this Agreement, with respect to each Employee, copies of Seller’s general employee benefit information, Employee information (including staff lists that include title and hire date, all records relating to
withholding and payment of income and unemployment taxes (federal, state and local) and FICA taxes (including, without limitation, Forms W-4, Forms I-9, Employee Withholding Allowance Certificates) with respect to wages paid by Seller during the
2009 calendar year) and complete copies of the personnel records of Employees employee records (including, without limitation, performance reviews, preemployment investigation and background checks). 
 (e) Purchaser shall designate a 401(k) plan maintained by Purchaser to accept rollovers from Transferred Employees of “eligible rollover
distributions” (as defined in Section 402(c) of the Code) from Seller’s 401(k) plan. 
 (f) Seller shall remain responsible
for all obligations of Seller under unemployment compensation laws for all of its current and former employees, including but not limited to Transferred Employees relating to periods of employment with Seller. With respect to each Transferred
Employee, Seller shall retain the obligation and liability for any workers’ compensation or similar workers’ protection claims incurred prior to the Closing Date (including claims made on or after the Closing Date) which are the result of
an injury or illness originating prior to the Closing Date. Seller shall remain responsible following the Closing for any obligations arising under or relating to the employment agreements listed in Section 2.16(d) of the Seller Disclosure
Letter regardless of whether the affected employees become employees of Purchaser. 
 (g) No officer, director, employee, agent or
representative of Seller shall make any communication to any Employee regarding any compensation or benefits to be provided after the Closing without the advance written approval of Purchaser. 
 (h) Seller shall be responsible for providing all required notification under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985
(“COBRA”) and comparable state laws to all former employees of Seller at the Branch Offices, including employees who do not become Transferred Employees prior to the Employment Effective Date, and to all other Persons who became
“qualified beneficiaries” under COBRA with respect to any group health plans maintained by Seller for its employees at the Branch Offices, and Seller will have provided any required COBRA coverage to all such former employees and such
other qualified beneficiaries of Seller who elected COBRA coverage within the time period specified by COBRA and the regulations promulgated thereunder. 
 (i) For a period of ninety (90) calendar days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall not engage in any conduct which would result in an employment loss or layoff for a sufficient number of employees of Purchaser
which, if aggregated with any such conduct on the part of Seller prior to the Closing Date, would trigger obligations or liability for Seller under the WARN Act. 
  

 42 

 (j) This Agreement is not intended, nor shall it be construed, to create any express or implied
third-party beneficiary rights in any Person, including present or former employees of Seller, the Employees, and any beneficiaries or dependents thereof. 
 Section 5.2 Notice of Closing. Except as necessary in order to obtain the Requisite Regulatory Approvals, prior to the Closing Date Purchaser shall not give any notice or notification of the closing (or
possible closing) of any of the Branch Offices, or that any employees at any Branch Office are not to be offered employment by Purchaser, or be responsible for any such notice or notification or the communication of any such information to any
Person (including any employee of Seller).

party shall reimburse by wire transfer of immediately available funds no later than ten (10) calendar days after receipt of such notice. 
 (b) Purchaser and Seller shall each pay one-half (50%) of all sales, use, transfer, recording, privilege, documentary, gross receipts, registration, conveyance, excise, license, stamp, duties or similar Taxes and fees (collectively,
the “Transfer Taxes”) incurred in connection with or resulting from this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereunder. The party which has primary responsibility under Applicable Law for the payment of any particular

 INDEMNIFICATION 
 Section 11.1 Seller to Indemnify. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article XI, from and after the Closing, Seller and Parent,
jointly and severally, agree to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Purchaser, its Affiliates (as “Affiliates” is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) and Purchaser’s and each such
Affiliate’s directors, officers, subsidiaries, successors and assigns, and Affiliates (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses, including
reasonable legal fees and expenses, damages, expenditures, proceedings, judgments, awards, settlements, fines, penalties, Taxes, demands and obligations to third parties (“Losses”) of any kind whatsoever which may at any time be
incurred by, imposed upon, or asserted or awarded against any Purchaser Indemnified Party: 
 (a) arising out of or resulting from the breach
or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement, the certificate delivered to Purchaser by Seller pursuant to Section 9.1(f) or any documents, agreements or instruments to be executed by Seller or Parent
pursuant to this Agreement; 
 (b) arising out of or resulting from any breach or failure to comply with any covenant or agreement made by
Seller or Parent in this Agreement or any documents, agreements or instruments to be executed by Seller or Parent pursuant to this Agreement; 
 (c) arising out of or resulting from or based upon any asset of Seller or Parent other than the Assets, including the Excluded Assets, or any liability of Seller or Parent other than the Assumed Liabilities, including the Excluded

 51 

 (d) any failure of Seller to obtain prior to the Closing any consent contemplated by Section 9.2;
and 
 (e) any inaccuracy in the certificate delivered by Seller to Purchaser pursuant to Section 9.3(c)(ii). 
 Section 11.2 Purchaser to Indemnify. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article XI, from and after the Closing, Purchaser agrees to
indemnify, hold harmless and defend Seller and its Affiliates and Seller’s and each such Affiliate’s directors, officers, subsidiaries, successors and assigns, and Affiliates (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified
Parties”) from and against any and all Losses of any kind whatsoever which may at any time be incurred by, imposed upon, or asserted or awarded against Seller Indemnified Parties (a) arising out of or resulting from the breach or
inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser in this Agreement, the certificate delivered to Seller by Purchaser pursuant to Section 10.1(d) or any documents, agreements or instruments to be executed by Purchaser pursuant to
this Agreement, (b) arising out of or resulting from any breach or failure to comply with any covenant or agreement made by Purchaser in this Agreement or any documents, agreements or instruments to be executed by Purchaser pursuant to this
Agreement or (c) the failure by Purchaser to perform any of its obligations with respect to the Assumed Liabilities in accordance with their terms. 
 Section 11.3 Procedure for Indemnification. 
 (a) If a party entitled to be indemnified under
this Agreement (an “Indemnitee”) receives notice of the assertion by an unaffiliated third party (a “Third Party”) of any claim or potential liability or of the commencement by any such Person of any action or
proceeding (a “Third Party Claim”) with respect to which another party hereto (an “Indemnifying Party”) is obligated to provide indemnification, the Indemnitee shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt notice thereof
after becoming aware of such Third Party Claim. Such notice shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail and shall indicate the amount (estimated if necessary) of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnitee. Such notice
shall be a condition precedent to any liability of the Indemnifying Party for any Third Party Claim under the provisions for indemnification contained in this Agreement; provided, however, that the failure of the Indemnitee to give prompt notice to
the Indemnifying Party of such Third Party Claim shall adversely affect the Indemnitee’s rights to indemnification hereunder solely to the extent that such failure prejudices the Indemnifying Party in the defense of such Third Party Claim. The
Indemnifying Party may elect to compromise or defend, at such Indemnifying Party’s own expense and by such Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, which counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee, any Third Party Claim. If the
Indemnifying Party elects to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, it shall, within fifteen (15) calendar days after receiving notice of the Third Party Claim, notify the Indemnitee of its intent to do so, and the Indemnitee shall
cooperate, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, in the compromise of, or defense against, such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend against the Third Party Claim, or fails to notify the Indemnitee of
its election as herein provided, or otherwise abandons the defense of such Third Party Claim, (i) the Indemnitee may pay (without prejudice of any of its rights as against the Indemnifying Party), compromise or defend such Third Party Claim and
(ii) the costs and expenses of the Indemnitee 

  

 52 

 
incurred in connection therewith shall be indemnifiable by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to the terms of the Agreement. In addition, in connection with any
Third Party Claim in which the Indemnitee shall reasonably conclude, based upon an opinion of its counsel, that (A) there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of such Third
Party Claim, (B) there are specific defenses available to the Indemnitee which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party and which could be materially adverse to the Indemnifying Party, or (C) the
Indemnifying Party’s counsel is not reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee, then the Indemnitee shall have the right to retain separate counsel in connection with such Third Party Claim. In such an event, the Indemnifying Party shall pay the
reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to each of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnitee but in no event shall Indemnifying Party be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel, separate from its own counsel, for Indemnitees
who have no conflicts of interests among them in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same allegations or circumstances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the
Indemnifying Party nor the Indemnitee may settle or compromise any claim (unless the sole relief payable to a Third Party in respect of such Third Party Claim is monetary damages that are paid in full by the party settling or compromising such
claim) over the objection of the other; provided, however, that consent to settlement or compromise shall not be unreasonably withheld. In any event, except as otherwise provided herein, the Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party may each
participate, at its own expense, in the defense of such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend any claim, the Indemnitee shall make available to the Indemnifying Party any personnel or any books, records or other documents
within its control that are reasonably necessary or appropriate for such defense, subject to the receipt of appropriate confidentiality agreements. 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 11.3(a), in the event prompt action is required with respect to the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Article XI, have the right to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that in the event that the Indemnifying Party subsequently elects to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, then the provisions
set forth in Section 11.3(a) shall be applicable and the Indemnifying Party shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Article XI, reimburse the Indemnitee for any costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnitee prior to the date the
Indemnifying Party assumes control of such Third Party Claim. 
 Section 11.4 Limitations. 
 (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, except with respect to Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.5, 2.9, 2.11 and Article VI to
which this Section 11.4 shall not apply, no claim shall be made against Seller or Parent for indemnification under Section 11.1(a) with respect to any Loss which any of Purchaser’s Indemnified Parties may suffer, incur or sustain
unless the aggregate of all such Losses described in Section 11.1(a) shall exceed $200,000 (the “Deductible”), and Seller and Parent shall only be required to pay or be liable for any such Losses described in
Section 11.1(a) to the extent that the aggregate amount of such Losses exceeds the Deductible, and then only with respect to Losses incurred in excess of such amount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any Loss or Losses which
would otherwise be subject to indemnification by Seller and Parent pursuant to 

  

 53 

 
Section 11.1(a) relating to any single breach or series of related breaches by Seller shall not constitute “Losses” for the purposes hereof,
and therefore shall not be applied toward the Deductible or be indemnifiable hereunder, unless such Losses relating to any single breach or series of related breaches exceed $5,000. 
 (b) Except with respect to Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.5, 2.9 and 2.11 and Article VI to which this Section 11.4(b) shall not apply, the maximum
aggregate amount of Losses against which the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to be indemnified under Section 11.1(a) with respect to all claims thereunder shall be an amount equal to $40,000,000. 
 (c) NO PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR INDIRECT DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS
WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OTHER LAW OR OTHERWISE AND WHETHER OR NOT FROM ANY OTHER PARTY’S SOLE, JOINT OR CONCURRENT NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER FAULT, EXCEPT SUCH DAMAGES THAT ARE PAYABLE TO A THIRD PARTY
WITH RESPECT TO A THIRD PARTY CLAIM FOR WHICH ANY PERSON IS SEEKING INDEMNIFICATION HEREUNDER, AND EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO RECEIVE SUCH DAMAGES UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT. 
 Section 11.5 Indemnification Payments on After-Tax Basis. Any indemnification payment made under this Agreement
with respect to any Loss shall be (a) an amount which is sufficient to compensate the indemnified party for the amount of such Loss, after taking into account all increases in federal, state, local, foreign or other Taxes payable by the
indemnified party as a result of such payment and (b) net of any Tax savings actually realized by the indemnified party resulting from deductions or other tax benefits attributable to such Loss. 
 Section 11.6 Purchase Price Adjustment. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated and reported as adjustments
to the purchase price for all Tax purposes unless otherwise required by Applicable Law. 
 Section 11.7 Survival. No rights to
indemnification with respect to breaches of the representations and warranties of the parties contained in this Agreement shall be asserted by any party unless notice thereof is given on or before the date such representation or warranty no longer
survives as provided in this Section 11.7. The representations and warranties of Seller, on the one hand, and of Purchaser, on the other hand, contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement
shall survive the Closing Date and shall expire on the later of the second anniversary of the Closing date and June 30, 2011, except with respect to the representations contained Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.5 and 2.9 which will survive
indefinitely and the representations contained in Sections 2.8 and 2.11 which will survive through the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitations. Any covenant or agreement of any party contained herein (including, without limitation,
those relating to indemnification) shall survive the Closing indefinitely. 
  

 54 

 Section 11.8 Exclusive Remedy. The indemnification provisions of Article VI and this Article
XI shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of each party hereto (including the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, and the Seller Indemnified Parties) after the Closing for any breach of the other party’s representations, warranties, covenants or
agreements contained in this Agreement or otherwise with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that the foregoing shall not be deemed to limit the rights of each party to seek equitable remedies (including
specific performance or injunctive relief) or to seek other damages in the case of fraud or willful misconduct. 
 Section 11.9
Non-Duplication of Article VI Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement, any indemnification otherwise payable pursuant to this Article XI shall not be made to the extent it would result in duplication of
indemnification payments made pursuant to Article VI. 
 ARTICLE XII 
 TERMINATION 
 Section 12.1 Methods of Termination. This
Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby may be abandoned at any time prior to the Closing: 
 (a) by mutual
written consent of Seller and Purchaser; 
 (b) by either Seller or Purchaser, upon written notice to the other, if the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement shall not have been consummated on or before the date that is one hundred fifty (150) calendar days after the date hereof (the “Termination Date”), unless the failure of such occurrence shall be
due to the failure of the party seeking to terminate this Agreement to perform or observe the agreements set forth herein required to be performed or observed by such party at or before the Closing; provided, however, that in the event that the
conditions set forth in Section 8.1 and Section 9.4 are the only conditions (other than conditions which by their nature can only be satisfied at Closing) which have not been satisfied by the Termination Date (and provided that the reason
for the failure of the condition set forth in Section 9.4 is the failure to obtain any required regulatory approvals), the Termination Date shall automatically be extended by thirty (30) calendar days; 
 (c) by Seller, upon written notice to Purchaser specifying the nature of any such breach and requesting that it be remedied, if there shall have been
any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Purchaser set forth in this Agreement or if any representation or warranty of Purchaser shall have become untrue, in either case (i) such that the conditions set forth in
Section 10.1 would not be satisfied and (ii) such breach is not curable, or if curable, is not cured within forty-five (45) calendar days after receipt by Purchaser of such written notice from Seller; provided, however, that Seller
shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 12.1(c) if it, at such time, is in breach of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement such that the conditions
set forth in Section 9.1 would not be satisfied; 
  

 55 

 (d) by Purchaser, upon written notice to Seller specifying the nature of any such breach and requesting
that it be remedied, if there shall have been any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Seller set forth in this Agreement or if any representation or warranty of Seller shall have become untrue, in either case
(i) such that the conditions set forth in Section 9.1 would not be satisfied and (ii) such breach is not curable, or if curable, is not cured within forty-five (45) calendar after receipt by Seller of such written notice from
Purchaser; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 12.1(d) if it, at such time, is in breach of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth
in this Agreement such that the conditions set forth in Section 10.1 would not be satisfied; or 
 (e) by either Seller or Purchaser,
upon written notice to the other, if any Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction issues a final unappealable order prohibiting consummation of any material transaction contemplated hereby. 
 Section 12.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.1 hereof, this Agreement
shall forthwith become void and have no effect, without any liability on the part of any party hereto or its affiliates, directors, officers or stockholders, other than the provisions of this Section 12.2, Section 13.4, Section 13.5
and the confidentiality provisions of Section 4.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, a termination of this Agreement shall not defeat or impair the right of any party to pursue such relief as may otherwise be available to it on account of
any willful breach of this Agreement. 
 ARTICLE XIII 
 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 
 Section 13.1 Entire Agreement; Modification; Waiver.
This Agreement, including the Seller Disclosure Letter, the Purchaser Disclosure Letter, the Annex, all Schedules hereto and all Exhibits hereto, together with the Confidentiality Agreement and any other agreements contemplated hereby, constitutes
the entire agreement of the parties pertaining to the subject matter contained herein and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements, representations and understandings of the parties. No supplement, modification or amendment to, or waiver
of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by Seller or Purchaser. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision, whether or not similar, nor shall any waiver
constitute a continuing waiver. 
 Section 13.2 Counterparts; Virtual Closing. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. A signature page to this Agreement or any other document prepared in connection with the transactions which contains a
copy of a party’s signature and which is sent by such party or its agent with the apparent intention (as reasonably evidenced by the actions of such party or its agent) that it constitute such party’s execution and delivery of this
Agreement or such other document, including a document sent by facsimile transmission or by email in portable document format (pdf), shall have the same effect as if such party had executed and delivered an original of this Agreement or such other
document. Minor variations in the form of the signature page, including footers from earlier versions of this Agreement or any such other document, shall be disregarded in determining the party’s intent or the effectiveness of such signature.
