     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Guaranty Bank, a federal savings association (the
“bank”), promises to pay to the order of                      (the “purchaser”), at the purchaser’s
offices in                      in lawful money of the United States of America, (i) the principal
amount of $                    , payable upon the earlier of (A) the tenth anniversary of the date hereof
and (B) acceleration in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement and (ii) interest on
any and all (A) unpaid principal hereof outstanding from time to time and (B) unpaid and past due
interest accrued thereon, in each case in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the
Purchase Agreement.

     1. Payments. The entire unpaid principal of this note and any accrued interest then
unpaid shall be due and payable on or before the tenth anniversary of the date hereof. The interest
on this note shall be due and payable semiannually as it accrues on the last Business Day of each
December and June until this note is paid in full, commencing on December 31, 2008. Subject to
Section 14 of this note, the bank shall have the right and privilege of prepaying all or any part
of this note at any time after the fifth anniversary of the date first written above, but not prior
thereto, and in accordance with Section 2.08 of the Purchase Agreement without notice or penalty,
subject to the Federal Banking Regulator’s prior approval, and all payments on this note shall be
applied first to accrued interest and the balance, if any, to principal. If any amount payable
hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be due and payable
and made on the next succeeding Business Day.

     2. Interest. Interest on the unpaid principal balance of this note shall accrue at a
rate of interest equal to twelve percent (12%) per annum (the “Interest Rate”), and (ii) interest
on all

PA- Sub Debt

- 1 -

 

past due principal amounts from time to time remaining outstanding hereunder (howsoever such
past due amounts shall arise, whether by acceleration, default, the occurrence of the Stated
Maturity date or otherwise), shall accrue at a rate of interest equal to fourteen (14%) per annum
(the “Default Rate”) and interest on such past due amounts shall be payable monthly, or at the
option of the purchaser, on demand.

     3. Prohibition on Payment of Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, (1)
in accordance with 12 U.S. C. §1828(b), the bank shall not pay interest on this note while it
remains in default in the payment of any assessment due to the FDIC, and (2) in accordance with and
subject to 12 U.S.C. §1831o (or its successor statute), if the bank becomes a critically
undercapitalized insured depository institution under such statute, it shall not, beginning 60 days
after becoming critically undercapitalized, make any payment of principal or interest on the
Securities. The bank shall promptly notify the purchaser upon becoming aware of any facts that
would result in the bank being prohibited from paying interest on this note in accordance with the
preceding sentence.

     4. Maximum Interest. It is the intent of the parties that the rate and amount of
interest and other charges to the bank under this note shall be lawful; therefore, if for any
reason the interest or other charges payable under this note are found by a court of competent
jurisdiction, in a final determination, to exceed the limit or amount which the purchaser may
lawfully charge the bank, then the obligation to pay interest and other charges shall automatically
be reduced to such limit and, if any amount in excess of such limit shall have been paid, then, at
the option of the purchaser, such amount shall be refunded to the bank or applied to the
outstanding principal balance of this note.

     5. Subordination. This note is subordinated on liquidation, as to principal,
interest, and premium (if any) to all claims against the bank that have the same priority as
savings accounts or higher. The indebtedness of the bank evidenced by this note, including the
principal and premium, if any, and interest shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to
its obligations to its depositors, its obligations under bankers’ acceptances and letters of
credit, and its obligations to its other creditors, including its obligations to the Federal
Reserve Bank, FDIC, and any rights acquired by the FDIC as a result of loans made by the FDIC to
the bank or the purchase or guarantee of any of its assets by the FDIC pursuant to the provisions
of 12 USC §1823(c), (d) or (e), whether now outstanding or hereafter incurred. In the event of any
insolvency, receivership, conservatorship, reorganization, readjustment of debt, marshaling of
assets and liabilities or similar proceedings or any liquidation or winding up of or relating to
the bank, whether voluntary or involuntary, all such obligations shall be entitled to be paid in
full before any payment shall be made on account of the principal of, or premium, if any, or
interest, on the note. In the event of any such proceedings, after payment in full of all sums
owing on such prior obligations, the holder of the note, together with any obligations of the bank
ranking on a parity with the note, shall be entitled to be paid from the remaining assets of the
bank the unpaid principal thereof and any unpaid premium, if any, and interest before any payment
or other distribution, whether in cash, property, or otherwise, shall be made on account of any
capital stock or any obligations of the bank ranking junior to the notes. Except as otherwise
expressly set forth in this note, nothing herein shall impair the obligation of the bank, which is

PA- Sub Debt

- 2 -

 

absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on the note
according to its terms.

     6. Acceleration. Subject to Section 14 below, this note shall become immediately due
and payable, at the option of the holder, upon the terms stated in the Purchase Agreement, without
presentment or demand or any notice to the bank or any other person obligated, upon an Event of
Default.

     7. Waiver of Notices. The bank waives demand, presentment for payment, notice of
nonpayment, notice of protest, and all other notices.

     8. Federal Banking Regulator Rights. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
note, including specifically those set forth in Section 4 of this note, Section 2.10 of the
Purchase Agreement, events of default and covenants of the bank, it is expressly understood and
agreed that the Federal Banking Regulator or any receiver or conservator of the bank appointed by
the Federal Banking Regulator shall have the right in the performance of his legal duties, and as
part of liquidation designed to protect or further the continued existence of the bank or the
rights of any parties or agencies with an interest in, or claim against, the bank or its assets, to
transfer or direct the transfer of the obligations of this note to any bank or bank holding company
selected by such official which shall expressly assume the obligation of the due and punctual
payment of the unpaid principal, and interest and premium, if any, on this note and the due and
punctual performance of all covenants and conditions; and the completion of such transfer and
assumption shall serve to supersede and void any default, acceleration or subordination which may
have occurred, or which may occur due or related to such transaction, plan, transfer or assumption,
pursuant to the provisions of this note, and shall serve to return the holder to the same position,
other than for substitution of the obligor, it would have occupied had no default, acceleration or
subordination occurred; except that any interest and principal previously due, other than by reason
of acceleration, and not paid shall, in the absence of a contrary agreement by the holder of this
note, be deemed to be immediately due and payable as of the date of such transfer and assumption,
together with the interest from its original due date at the rate provided for herein.

     9. Transfer Restriction. An indenture must be in place before this note may be
transferred to any non-accredited investor.

     10. Incorporation of Terms. The terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement are
incorporated by reference herein and shall have the same force and effect as if set forth herein in
full, it being the intention of the bank that all of the terms of this note are subject to and
governed by the terms and provisions of the Purchase Agreement.

     11. Modification and Benefit of Note. This note may not be modified, altered or
amended except by an agreement in writing signed by bank and purchaser.

     12. Headings of Subdivisions. The headings of subdivisions in this note are for
convenience of reference only, and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the provisions of
this note.

     13. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REFERENCE TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF
LAW. ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY OR AGAINST THE BANK OR WITH RESPECT TO OR ARISING OUT OF
THIS NOTE MAY BE BROUGHT IN OR REMOVED TO THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, IN AND FOR NEW YORK
COUNTY, OR OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK. BY EXECUTION AND
DELIVERY OF THIS NOTE, THE BANK ACCEPTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY, THE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS (AND COURTS OF APPEALS THEREFROM) FOR
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE.

     14. Restriction on Acceleration and Prepayment. The bank must obtain approval of the
Federal Banking Regulator before the voluntary prepayment of principal on this note or the
acceleration of payment of principal on this note if the bank is (a) undercapitalized,
significantly undercapitalized, or critically undercapitalized as described in 12 CFR §565.4(b),
(b) fails to meet the regulatory capital requirements at 12 CFR §567, or (c) would fail to meet any

Section 9. Additional Covenants.

     (a) [Reserved]

     (b) Reservation for Issuance. The Company will at all times reserve and keep
available, out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the
conversion of the Preferred Shares, the full number of Conversion Shares. Additionally, the
Company will at all times prior to the Closing reserve and keep available, out of its authorized
but unissued shares of preferred stock, solely for the purpose of issuing the Preferred Shares at
the Closing, a sufficient number of shares of preferred stock to allow the issuance of all shares
of Preferred Stock necessary to be issued to the Holders.

     (c) Exchange Listing. The Company will promptly use its reasonable best efforts to
cause the Conversion Shares to be approved for listing on the NYSE, subject to official notice of
issuance and upon receipt of the Stockholder Approval.

     (d) Stockholder Meeting. The Company will call a special meeting of its stockholders,
as promptly as practicable following the Closing Date to approve the conversion of the Preferred
Shares into Common Stock for purposes of complying with the requirements of the NYSE, and use
commercially reasonable efforts to take any other action necessary to effect such conversion. The
Board of Directors, to the extent it is consistent with its fiduciary duties, will recommend to the
Company’s stockholders that such stockholders vote in favor of the proposals required by this
Section 9(d). In connection with such meeting, the Company will promptly prepare and file
with the Commission a preliminary proxy statement, will use its reasonable best efforts to respond
to any comments of the Commission or its staff and to cause a definitive proxy statement related to
such stockholders’ meeting to be mailed to the Company’s stockholders not more than five Business
Days after clearance thereof by the Commission staff, and will use its reasonable best efforts to
solicit proxies for such stockholder approval. In the event that the approvals necessary to permit
the Preferred Shares to be converted into Common Stock are not obtained at such special
stockholders meeting, the Company will include a proposal to approve (and the Board of Directors,
to the extent it is consistent with its fiduciary duties, will recommend approval of) such issuance
at a meeting of its stockholders no less than once in each subsequent six-month period beginning on
January 1, 2009 and ending on the earlier of (i) the date such approval is obtained or made, or
(ii) May 31, 2012, and if Stockholder Approval has not been obtained by May 31, 2012, the Company
will cause all Preferred Shares to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar
securities issued by the Company are then listed or, if no similar securities issued by the Company
are then listed on any securities exchange, use its reasonable best efforts to cause all such
Preferred Shares to be listed on the NYSE or the NASDAQ stock market, as determined by the Company.

     (e) Voting Agreement. As a material inducement to the Company’s entering into this
Agreement and issuing and selling the Preferred Shares to the Investor, the Investor irrevocably

- 19 -

 

covenants and agrees to vote and to execute written consents, and to cause its Affiliates to
vote and execute written consents, at any meeting of the stockholders of the Company or in any
action taken by the stockholders without a meeting, with respect to all Voting Securities over
which the Investor or any of its Affiliates has voting power (i) in favor of the Stockholder
Approval, and (ii) against any action, agreement or proposal that would result in the Stockholder
Approval not being obtained acting with the intent of hindering, delaying, frustrating, impairing
or making futile or less likely the Stockholder Approval. Upon the execution of this Agreement,
the Investor hereby revokes any and all other proxies and voting agreements given by the Investor
with respect to its Voting Securities and the Investor will cause its Affiliates to revoke any and
all other proxies and voting agreements given by such Affiliate with respect to its Voting
Securities. As of the date hereof, the Investor has voting power with respect to all shares of
Common Stock set forth opposite the Investor’s name on Schedule 1. The agreements and
restrictions set forth in this Section 9(e) will be binding on any transferee of the
Preferred Shares, and the Investor agrees that it will, as a condition to the transfer of the
Preferred Shares require that any transferee of such Preferred Shares take such Preferred Shares
subject to the terms of this Section 9(e). This agreement to vote is irrevocable and
coupled with an interest and will expire upon termination of this Agreement, upon the receipt of
the Stockholder Approval, or the expiration of any period beyond which agreements to vote are not
enforceable under applicable law, whichever comes first.

     (f) Reports Under the Exchange Act. With a view to making available to the Investor
the benefits of Rule 144, the Company agrees to (i) make and keep public information available, as
those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, (ii) file with the Commission in a timely
manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such
reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and
(iii) furnish to the Investor so long as the Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon
request (A) a written statement by the Company, if true, that it has complied with the reporting
requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (B) a copy of the most recent
annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the
Company, and (C) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investors to
sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.

     (g) Investment Agreements. Without the prior consent of the Investor, which consent
will not be unreasonably delayed, the Company will not amend, modify or supplement any Investment
Agreement with any other Holder.

     (h) Disclosure of Material Non-Public Information. The next Business Day following
the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company agrees to file a Current Report on Form
8-K regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Investment Agreements. The
Company hereby represents and warrants to the Investor that, upon the filing of such Form 8-K, the
Company will have disclosed in the Company SEC Documents all material non-public information that
the Company had previously provided to the Investor.
