7%
Subordinated Notes Due April 20, 2022

 

April 20, 2012

 

To
each of the Purchasers listed in

the attached
Schedule A:

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Park National Corporation,
an Ohio corporation (the “Company”), agrees with each of the purchasers whose names appear at the end hereof
(each, a “Purchaser” and, collectively, the “Purchasers”) as follows:

 

Section 1.          Authorization
of Notes.

 

The Company will authorize
the issuance and sale of $30,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its unsecured 7% Subordinated Notes due April 20, 2022
(the “Notes”, with such term to include any such notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to
Section 13), that are intended to qualify as Tier 2 Capital under applicable rules and regulations
of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“FRB”). The Notes shall be substantially in
the form set out in Exhibit 1. Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Schedule B; references
to a “Schedule” or an “Exhibit” are, unless otherwise specified, to a Schedule or an Exhibit attached to
this Agreement.

 

Section 2.          Sale
and Purchase of Notes.

 

Subject to the terms
and conditions of this Agreement, the Company will issue and sell to each Purchaser, and each Purchaser will purchase from the
Company, at the Closing provided for in Section 3, one or more Notes in the principal amount specified opposite such Purchaser’s
name in Schedule A at the purchase price of 100% of the principal amount thereof. The Purchasers’ obligations hereunder
are several and not joint obligations and no Purchaser shall have any liability to any Person for the performance or nonperformance
of any obligation by any other Purchaser hereunder.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

Section 3.          Closing.

 

The sale and purchase
of the Notes to be purchased by each Purchaser shall occur at the offices of the Company, 50 North Third Street, Newark, Ohio 43055,
at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Daylight Saving Time, at a closing (the “Closing”) on April 20, 2012,
or on such other Business Day thereafter on or prior to April 30, 2012, as may
be agreed upon by the Company and the Purchasers. At the Closing, the Company will deliver to each Purchaser the Notes to be purchased
by such Purchaser in the form of a single Note (or such greater number of Notes in denominations of at least $100,000 as such Purchaser
may request) dated the date of the Closing and registered in such Purchaser’s name (or in the name of its nominee), against
delivery by such Purchaser to the Company or its order of immediately available funds in the amount of the purchase price therefor
by wire transfer, direct deposit, ACH transfer or other method acceptable to the Company, in each case in immediately available
funds. If at the Closing the Company shall fail to tender such Notes to any Purchaser as provided above in this Section 3,
or any of the conditions specified in Section 4 shall not have been fulfilled to such Purchaser’s satisfaction, such
Purchaser shall, at its election, be relieved of all further obligations under this Agreement, without thereby waiving any rights
such Purchaser may have by reason of such failure or such nonfulfillment.

 

Section 4.          Conditions
to Closing.

 

Each Purchaser’s
obligation to purchase and pay for the Notes to be sold to such Purchaser at the Closing is subject to the fulfillment to such
Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction, prior to or at the Closing, of the following conditions:

 

Section 4.1.          Representations
and Warranties. The representations and warranties of the Company in this
Agreement shall be correct when made and at the time of the Closing.

 

Section 4.2.          Performance;
No Default. The Company shall have performed and complied with all agreements
and conditions contained in this Agreement required to be performed or complied with by it prior to or at the Closing and, after
giving effect to the issue and sale of the Notes (and the application of the proceeds thereof as contemplated by Section 5.14 of
this Agreement), no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

 

Section 4.3.          Compliance
Certificates.

 

(a)          Officer’s
Certificate. The Company shall have delivered to such Purchaser an Officer’s Certificate, dated the date of the Closing,
certifying that the conditions specified in Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.8 have been fulfilled.

 

(b)          Secretary’s
Certificate. The Company shall have delivered to such Purchaser a certificate, dated the date of the Closing, certifying as
to the resolutions attached thereto and other corporate proceedings relating to the authorization, execution and delivery of the
Notes and this Agreement.

 

Section 4.4.          Opinion
of Counsel. Such Purchaser shall have received an opinion in form and
substance satisfactory to such Purchaser, dated the date of the Closing, from Vorys, Sater, Seymour and Pease LLP, counsel for
the Company, covering the matters set forth in Exhibit 4.4 (and the Company hereby instructs its counsel to deliver such opinion
to each Purchaser).

 

Section 4.5.          Purchase
Permitted by Applicable Law, etc. On the date of the Closing, such Purchaser’s
purchase of Notes shall (i) be permitted by the laws and regulations of each jurisdiction to which such Purchaser is subject,
or (ii) not violate any applicable law or regulation (including, without limitation, Regulation T, U or X promulgated by the
FRB).

Section 4.6.          Sale
of Other Notes. Contemporaneously with the Closing, the Company shall sell to each of the other Purchasers the Note(s) to be
purchased by each such other Purchaser at the Closing as specified in Schedule A.

 

Section 4.7.          Changes
in Corporate Structure. Except as specified in Schedule 4.7, the
Company shall not have changed its jurisdiction of incorporation or been a party to any merger or consolidation and shall not have
succeeded to all or any substantial part of the liabilities of any other entity, at any time following the date of the most recent
financial statements referred to in Schedule 5.5.

 

Section 4.8.          Proceedings
and Documents. All corporate and other proceedings in connection with
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all documents and instruments incident to such transactions shall be reasonably
satisfactory to such Purchaser, and such Purchaser shall have received all such counterpart originals or certified or other copies
of such documents as such Purchaser may reasonably request.

 

Section 5.          Representations
and Warranties of the Company.

 

The Company represents
and warrants to each Purchaser that as of the date of Closing:

 

Section 5.1.          Organization;
Power and Authority. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Ohio,
and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required
by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing would not, individually or
in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company has the corporate power and authority to
own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease, to transact the business it transacts and proposes
to transact, to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Notes and to perform the provisions hereof and thereof.

 

Section 5.2.          Authorization,
etc. This Agreement and the Notes have been duly authorized by all necessary
corporate action on the part of the Company, and this Agreement constitutes, and upon execution and delivery thereof each Note
will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms,
except as such enforceability may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other
similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity (regardless
of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

 

    	- 3 -

    	 

    

 

Section 5.3.          Disclosure.
The Company has delivered to each Purchaser a copy of an Offering Memorandum, dated April 6, 2012 (the “Memorandum”),
relating to the transactions contemplated hereby. Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.3, this Agreement, the Memorandum, the
documents, certificates or other writings identified in Schedule 5.3 and the consolidated financial statements listed in Schedule 5.5,
taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made. Except as disclosed in the Memorandum
or as expressly described in Schedule 5.3, or in one of the documents, certificates or other writings identified therein,
or in the consolidated financial statements listed in Schedule 5.5, since December 31, 2011, there has been no change
in the financial condition, operations, business or properties of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries except changes that, individually
or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

Section 5.4.          Organization
and Ownership of Shares of Subsidiaries. 

 

(a)          Schedule 5.4
is (except as noted therein) a complete and correct list of the Company’s Subsidiaries, showing, as to each Subsidiary, the
correct name thereof, the jurisdiction of its organization, and the percentage of shares of each class of its capital stock or
similar equity interests outstanding owned by the Company and each other Subsidiary.

Subsidiary identified in Schedule 5.4 is a corporation or other legal entity duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other legal entity
and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as
to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each such Subsidiary has the corporate or other power and authority to own or hold under lease
the properties it purports to own or hold under lease and to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact.

 

Section 5.5.          Consolidated
Financial Statements. The Company has delivered to each Purchaser copies
of the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 5.5. All of said consolidated

financial position of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the respective dates specified in such Schedule 5.5 and the consolidated
results of their operations and cash flows for the respective periods so specified and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP
consistently applied throughout the periods involved except as set forth in the notes thereto.

 

Section 5.6.          Compliance
with Laws, Other Instruments, etc. The execution, delivery and performance
by the Company of this Agreement and the Notes will not (i) contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default under,
or result in the creation of any Lien in respect of any property of the Company or any Subsidiary under, any indenture, mortgage,
deed of trust, loan, purchase or credit agreement, lease, corporate charter or by-laws, or any other Material agreement or instrument
to which or by which the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties may be bound or affected, (ii) conflict
with or result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree, or ruling of any court,
arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary or (iii) violate any provision of any statute
or other rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary, in each case which
would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 

    	- 4 -

    	 

    

 

Section 5.7.          Governmental
Authorizations, etc. No consent, approval or authorization of, or registration,
filing or declaration with, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by
the Company of this Agreement or the Notes except routine filings made, or to be made, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act
and/or under applicable state securities laws.

 

Section 5.8.          Litigation;
Observance of Statutes and Orders.

against or affecting the Company or any Subsidiary or any property of the Company or any Subsidiary in any court or before any
arbitrator of any kind or before or by any Governmental Authority that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

(b)          Neither
the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default under any order, judgment, decree or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental
Authority or is in violation of any applicable law, ordinance, rule or regulation (including without limitation Environmental Laws)
of any Governmental Authority, which default or violation, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect.

 

Section 5.9.          Taxes.
The Company and its Subsidiaries have filed all income tax returns that are required to have been filed in any jurisdiction,
and have paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes and assessments payable by them, to the
extent such taxes and assessments have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent, except for any taxes and
assessments (i) the amount of which is not individually or in the aggregate Material or (ii) the amount, applicability
or validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which the Company
or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, has established adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP.

 

Section 5.10.         Title
to Property; Leases. The Company and its Subsidiaries have good and sufficient
title to their respective Material properties, including all such properties reflected in the most recent audited consolidated
balance sheet referred to in Schedule 5.5 (except as disclosed in the Memorandum or as expressly described in Schedule 5.3,
or in one of the documents, certificates or other writings identified therein) or purported to have been acquired by the Company
or any Subsidiary after said date (except as sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary course of business), in each case free
and clear of Liens prohibited by this Agreement, except for those defects in title and Liens that, individually or in the aggregate,
would not have a Material Adverse Effect. All Material leases are valid and subsisting and are in full force and effect in all
Material respects.

 

Section 5.11.         Licenses,
Permits, etc. Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.11, the Company and
its Subsidiaries own or possess all licenses, permits, franchises, authorizations, patents, copyrights, service marks, trademarks
and trade names, or rights thereto, that are Material, without known conflict with the rights of others, except for those conflicts
that, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.12.         Compliance
with ERISA. All Plans established or maintained by the Company or any
ERISA Affiliate or to which the Company or any ERISA Affiliate contributes are in Material compliance with applicable requirements
of ERISA, and are in Material compliance with applicable requirements (including qualification and non-discrimination requirements)
of the Code for obtaining the tax benefits the Code thereupon permits with respect to such plans.

 

Section 5.13.         Private
Offering by the Company. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its
behalf has offered the Notes or any similar securities for sale to, or solicited any offer to buy any of the same from, or otherwise
approached or negotiated in respect thereof with, any Person other than the Purchasers and not more than 75 other Accredited Investors,
each of which has been offered the Notes at a private sale for investment. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf
has taken, or will take, any action that would subject the issuance or sale of the Notes to the registration requirements of Section 5
of the Securities Act.

 

Section 5.14.         Use
of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. The Company will use the net proceeds
from the offering of the Notes for general corporate purposes, which may include but are not limited to working capital, acquisition
opportunities, capital expenditures, investments in or loans to the Subsidiaries, payment and refinancing of debt, including outstanding
short-term indebtedness, if any, and satisfaction of other obligations. In addition, the Company may use certain net proceeds from
the offering of the Notes to redeem a portion or all of the Series A Preferred Shares and repurchase the Warrant which are held
by the U.S. Treasury pursuant to the Capital Purchase Program established under the Troubled Assets Relief Program, or to otherwise
repay indebtedness of the Company incurred in connection therewith. No part of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes hereunder
will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of buying or carrying any margin stock within the meaning of Regulation U
promulgated by the FRB, or for the purpose of buying or carrying or trading in any securities under such circumstances as to involve
the Company in a violation of Regulation X promulgated by the FRB or to involve any broker or dealer in a violation of Regulation T
promulgated by the FRB.

 

Section 5.15.         Foreign
Assets Control Regulations, etc. Neither the sale of the Notes by the
Company hereunder nor its use of the proceeds thereof will violate the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, or any of the foreign
assets control regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) or any enabling
legislation or executive order relating thereto.

 

Section 5.16.         Status
under Certain Statutes. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is subject
to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005, as amended,
the Interstate Commerce Act, as amended, or the Federal Power Act, as amended.

Section 6.          Representations
of the Purchaser.

 

Section 6.1.          Purchase
for Investment. Each Purchaser represents that such Purchaser is purchasing
the Note(s) for the Purchaser’s own account or for one or more separate accounts maintained by such Purchaser and not with
a view to the distribution thereof, provided that the disposition of such Purchaser’s property shall at all times
be within such Purchaser’s control. Each Purchaser represents that such Purchaser is an “accredited investor”
within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D as promulgated under the Securities Act (an “Accredited Investor”).
Each Purchaser understands that the Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or under the securities laws of any
state but have been offered and sold pursuant to and in reliance upon exemptions from registration thereunder. Each Purchaser also
understands that the Notes may not be subsequently sold, assigned, conveyed, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred by
such Purchaser except pursuant to an effective registration statement registering the Notes under the Securities Act and under
applicable state securities laws, or an opinion of counsel, or such other evidence obtained by such Purchaser and in all respects
satisfactory to the Company, that registration under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities laws is not required
for such Purchaser to lawfully effect the subsequent sale, assignment, conveyance, pledge, hypothecation or other transfer. The
Notes shall bear a legend setting forth the foregoing restrictions in addition to other appropriate and necessary legends. Each
Purchaser further understands that the Company reserves the right and has the right to refuse to accept or register the assignment
or other transfer of any of the Notes unless and until the conditions to such assignment or other transfer contemplated by this
Section 6.1 have been satisfied.

 

Section 6.2.          Source
of Funds. Each Purchaser severally represents that the source of funds (a “Source”) to be used by such Purchaser
to pay the purchase price of the Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser hereunder does not include assets currently maintained
by any Plan.

 

Section 7.          Information
as to the Company.

 

Section 7.1.          Financial
and Business Information. The Company shall deliver to each registered holder of Notes:

 

(a)          Quarterly
Statements — within 60 days after the end of each quarterly fiscal period in each fiscal year of the Company (other than
the last quarterly fiscal period of each such fiscal year), duplicate copies of,

 

(i)          a

Section 8.          Prepayment
of the Notes.

 

Section 8.1.          Optional
Prepayments. The Company may, at its option, upon notice as provided below, prepay at any time after April 20, 2017, all,
or from time to time any part of, the Notes, at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, without payment of any make-whole amount
or any similar payment or premium. The Company will give each holder of Notes written notice of each optional prepayment under
this Section 8.1 not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment. Each such notice
shall specify such date, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid on such date, the principal amount of each Note
held by such holder to be prepaid (determined in accordance with Section 8.2), and the interest to be paid on the prepayment
date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid. The Purchasers acknowledge that the Company may be required under regulations
promulgated by the FRB to obtain prior FRB approval before making any prepayment of the Notes (including payment pursuant to an
acceleration clause or redemption prior to maturity).

 

Section 8.2.          Allocation
of Partial Prepayments. In the case of each partial prepayment of the Notes, the principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid
shall be allocated among all of the Notes at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid
principal amounts thereof not theretofore called for prepayment.

 

Section 8.3.          Maturity;
Surrender, etc. In the case of each prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Section 8, the principal amount of each Note
to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment, together with interest on such principal
amount accrued to such date. From and after such date, unless the Company shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and
payable, together with the interest as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Note paid or prepaid
in full shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any
prepaid principal amount of any Note.

 

Section 8.4.          Purchase

or indirectly, any of the outstanding Notes except upon the payment or prepayment of the Notes in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement and the Notes. The Company will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment,
prepayment or purchase of Notes pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange
for any such Notes.

Section 9.          Affirmative
Covenants.

 

The Company covenants
that so long as any of the Notes are outstanding:

 

Section 9.1.          Compliance
with Law. The Company will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply in all Material respects with all laws, ordinances
or governmental rules or regulations to which each of them is subject, including, without limitation, Environmental Laws, and will
obtain and maintain in effect all licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other governmental authorizations necessary to
the ownership of their respective properties or to the conduct of their respective businesses, in each case to the extent necessary
to ensure that non-compliance with such laws, ordinances or governmental rules or regulations or failures to obtain or maintain
in effect such licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other governmental authorizations would not reasonably be expected,
individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

Section 9.2.          Insurance.
The Company will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance
with respect to their respective properties and businesses against such casualties and contingencies, of such types, on such terms
and in such amounts (including deductibles, co-insurance and self-insurance, if adequate reserves are maintained with respect thereto)
as is reasonably consistent with the Company’s current practice.

 

Section 9.3.          Maintenance
of Properties. The Company will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain and keep, or cause to be maintained and
kept, their respective properties in good repair, working order and condition (other than ordinary wear and tear), so that the
business carried on in connection therewith may be properly conducted at all times, provided that this Section shall
not prevent the Company or any Subsidiary from discontinuing the operation and the maintenance of any of its properties if such
discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business and the Company has concluded that such discontinuance would not, individually
or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

Section 9.4.          Payment
of Taxes. The Company will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to file all Material income tax or similar tax returns required
to be filed in any jurisdiction and to pay and discharge all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes,
assessments, governmental charges or levies payable by any of them, to the extent such taxes, assessments, governmental charges
or levies have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent, provided that neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary need pay any such tax, assessment, governmental charge or levy if (i) the amount, applicability or validity thereof
is contested by the Company or such Subsidiary on a timely basis in good faith and in appropriate proceedings, and the Company
or a Subsidiary has established adequate reserves therefor in accordance with GAAP on the books of the Company or such Subsidiary
or (ii) the nonpayment of all such taxes, assessments, governmental charges and levies in the aggregate would not reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

Section 9.5.          Corporate
Existence, etc. The Company will at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence. Subject to
Section 10.2, the Company will at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect the corporate existence of each of
its Subsidiaries (unless merged into the Company or a Subsidiary) and all rights and franchises of the Company and its Subsidiaries
unless, in the good faith judgment of the Company, the termination of or failure to preserve and keep in full force and effect
such corporate existence, right or franchise would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

    	- 11 -

    	 

    

 

Section 9.6.          Financial
Covenant. The Company shall maintain such capital as may be necessary to cause the Company to be classified at all times as
“well capitalized”, in accordance with the regulations promulgated by the FRB or any successor primary federal regulator,
as in effect from time to time and consistent with the financial information and reports contemplated in Section 7.1.

 

Section 9.7.          Treatment
of Notes. If all or any portion of the Notes ceases to be deemed to be Tier 2 Capital, other than due to the limitation imposed
by the FRB on the capital treatment of subordinated debt during the five years immediately preceding the maturity date of the Notes,
the Company shall: (a) immediately notify each Purchaser; and (b) within ten (10) Business Days upon request of any such
Purchaser, execute and deliver all agreements (including, without limitation, replacement notes) as such Purchaser may reasonably
request in order to restructure the applicable portion of the obligations evidenced by the Note(s) held by such Purchaser as an
obligation of the Company.

performance of all conditions of the Notes and this Agreement and (b) after giving effect to any such consolidation, merger,
sale, lease or other transfer, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

Section 12.         Remedies
on Default, Etc.

 

Section 12.1.          Acceleration.
(a) The Notes may not be declared due and payable or otherwise accelerated unless an Event of Default described in subsections
(g)(i) or (ii) of Section 11 has occurred, and, in such event, then only if the holders of more than 50% of the principal
amount of the Notes at that time outstanding (the “Required Holders”) elect to do so. Upon such declaration,
subject to prior FRB approval, if required, the Notes and such other amounts payable hereunder shall immediately become due and
payable, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind.

 

(b)          If
the Company receives a written notification from the FRB stating that the Notes no longer constitute Tier 2 Capital of the Company
(the “FRB Notice”), and thereafter any Event of Default shall occur under Section 11, the Required Holders may
declare the Notes and any other amounts due to the holders of the Notes immediately due and payable. Upon such declaration, the
Notes and such other amounts payable hereunder shall immediately become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or
notice of any kind.

 

    	- 14 -

    	 

    

 

(c)          The
parties agree that until the earlier of the Maturity Date or the delivery of an FRB Notice, the holders of the Notes may only enforce
this Agreement in accordance with this Section 12.1. If any Event of Default other than as described in subsections (g)(i) or (ii)
of Section 11 has occurred, none of the Required Holders, nor any other holder of any Notes, may declare the Notes and any
other amounts due to such holder(s) immediately due and payable, but the Required Holders may pursue the Company to ensure and
enforce the Company’s compliance with such covenants, so long as the enforcement of such rights and remedies do not in any
way limit, restrict or otherwise affect the treatment of the Notes as Tier 2 Capital.

 

(d)          Upon
any Notes becoming due and payable under this Section 12.1, such Notes will forthwith mature and the entire unpaid principal
amount of such Notes, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (to the full extent permitted by applicable law), shall all
be immediately due and payable, in each and every case without presentment, demand, protest or further notice, all of which are
hereby waived. The Company acknowledges, and the parties hereto agree, that each holder of a Note has the right to maintain its
investment in the Notes free from repayment by the Company, except as specifically provided for herein.

 

Section 12.2.          Other
Remedies. If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and irrespective of whether any Notes have become or have
been declared immediately due and payable under Section 12.1, no holders of any Notes at that time outstanding may declare
the Notes or any other amounts due to such holder(s) hereunder immediately due and payable, but such holder(s) may otherwise proceed
to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of such holder(s) by any action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding,
so long as the enforcement of such rights and remedies do not in any way limit, restrict or otherwise affect the treatment of the
Notes as Tier 2 Capital.

 

Section 12.3.          Rescission.
At any time after any Notes have been declared due and payable pursuant to clause (a) of Section 12.1, the Required Holders,
by written notice to the Company, may rescind and annul any such declaration and its consequences if (a) the Company has paid
all overdue interest on the Notes, all principal of any Notes that are due and payable and are unpaid other than by reason of such
declaration, and all interest on such overdue principal, and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) any overdue interest in
respect of the Notes, at the Default Rate, (b) all Events of Default and Defaults, other than non-payment of amounts that
have become due solely by reason of such declaration, have been cured or have been waived pursuant to Section 16, and (c) no
judgment or decree has been entered for the payment of any monies due pursuant hereto or to the Notes. No rescission and annulment
under this Section 12.3 will extend to or affect any subsequent Event of Default or Default or impair any right consequent
thereon.

 

Section 12.4.          No
Waivers or Election of Remedies, Expenses, etc. No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any holder of any Note in
exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such holder’s rights, powers
or remedies. No right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement or by any Note upon any holder thereof shall be exclusive of
any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.
The Company will pay to the holder of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all reasonable costs
and expenses of such holder incurred in any enforcement or collection under this Section 12, including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements.

Section 13.         Registration;
Exchange; Substitution of Notes.

of Notes. The name and address of each holder of one or more Notes, each transfer thereof and the name and address of each transferee
of one or more Notes shall be registered in such register. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person in
whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and
the Company shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary.

 

Section 13.2.          Transfer
and Exchange of Notes. Upon surrender of any Note at the principal executive office of the Company for registration of transfer
or exchange (and in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument
of transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such Note or such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing and
accompanied by the address for notices of each transferee of such Note or part thereof), the Company shall execute and deliver,
at the Company’s expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes (as requested by the holder thereof) in exchange
therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note. Each such new Note shall
be payable to such Person as such holder may request and shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit 1. Each such new Note
shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date
of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes. Notes shall not be transferred in denominations
of less than $100,000, provided that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of its entire holding
of Notes, one Note may be in a denomination of less than $100,000. Any transferee, by the transferee’s acceptance of a Note
registered in the transferee’s name (or the name of the transferee’s nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representations
set forth in Section 6. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, prior to any transfer or exchange of any Note, the
Company shall have received the delivery of an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company covering such matters as the Company
may reasonably request, including that the Company will not be required to register the Notes as a result thereof. Any transferee,
by the transferee’s acceptance of a Note registered in the transferee’s name (or the name of the transferee’s
nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representations set forth in Section 6.

 

Section 13.3.          Replacement
of Notes. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction
or mutilation of any Note, and (a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the
Company (provided, that if the holder of such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another holder of a
Note (i) with a minimum net worth of at least $1,000,000 (determined in accordance with Rule 501(a)(5) promulgated under the
Securities Act), if a natural person or (ii) with total assets in excess of $5,000,000, if an organization described in Section
501(c)(3) of the Code, a corporation or a trust, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be
satisfactory), or (b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof, the Company at its own expense shall
execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid
on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest
shall have been paid thereon.

jurisdiction or the principal office of a bank or trust company in such jurisdiction.

 

Section 14.2.          Home
Office Payment. So long as any Purchaser or such Purchaser’s nominee shall be the holder of any Note, and notwithstanding
anything contained in Section 14.1 or in such Note to the contrary, the Company will pay all sums becoming due on such Note
for principal and interest by the method and at the address specified for such purpose below such Purchaser’s name in Schedule A,
or by such other method or at such other address as such Purchaser shall have from time to time specified to the Company in writing
for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon, except that upon written
request of the Company made concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment or prepayment in full of any Note, such Purchaser
shall surrender such Note for cancellation, reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Company at its principal executive
office or at the place of payment most recently designated by the Company pursuant to Section 14.1. Prior to any sale or other

Section 16.         Amendment
and Waiver.

 

Section 16.1.          Requirements.
This Agreement and the Notes may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof or of the Notes may be waived (either retroactively
or prospectively), with (and only with) the written consent of the Company and the Required Holders, except that (a) no amendment
or waiver of any of the provisions of Section 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 20 hereof, or any defined term (as it is used therein),
will be effective as to any Purchaser unless consented to by such Purchaser in writing, and (b) no such amendment or waiver
may, without the written consent of the holder of each Note at the time outstanding affected thereby, (i) subject to the provisions
of Section 12 relating to acceleration or rescission, change the amount or time of any prepayment or payment of principal
of, or reduce the rate or change the time of payment or method of computation of interest on the Notes, (ii) change the percentage
of the principal amount of the Notes the holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or waiver, or (iii) amend
any of Sections 8, 11(a), 11(b), 12, 16 or 19 hereof.

 

Section 16.2.          Solicitation
of Holders of Notes.

 

(a)          Solicitation.
The Company will provide each holder of the Notes (irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned by such holder) with sufficient
information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered
decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof or of the Notes.
The Company will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions
of this Section 16 to each holder of outstanding Notes promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by,
or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of Notes.

 

(b)          Payment.
The Company will not directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional
interest, fee or otherwise, or grant any security, to any holder of Notes as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering
into by any holder of Notes of any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof unless such remuneration is concurrently
paid, or security is concurrently granted, on the same terms, ratably to each holder of Notes then outstanding even if such holder
did not consent to such waiver or amendment.

 

Section 16.3.          Binding
Effect, etc. Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 16 applies equally to all holders of Notes
and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any Note and upon the Company without regard to whether such Note has been
marked to indicate such amendment or waiver. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement,
Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between
the Company and the holder of any Note nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver
of any rights of any holder of such Note. As used herein, the term “this Agreement” and references thereto shall
mean this Agreement as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented.

 

Section 16.4.          Notes
Held by Company, etc. Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate
principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Agreement
or the Notes, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein or in the Notes to be taken upon the direction of the holders
of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by the
Company or any of its Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

executed, (b) documents received by any Purchaser at the Closing (except the Notes themselves), and (c) financial statements,

acting on such Purchaser’s behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to such Purchaser other than through disclosure by the
Company or any Subsidiary or (d) constitutes consolidated financial statements delivered to such Purchaser under Section 7.1
that are otherwise publicly available. Each Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information, provided
that each Purchaser may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) such Purchaser’s directors, officers, employees,
agents, attorneys and affiliates (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the investment represented
by such Purchaser’s Notes) on a “need to know” basis, who shall agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information

other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (w) to effect compliance with any law, rule,
regulation or order applicable to such Purchaser, (x) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (y) in connection
with any litigation to which such Purchaser is a party relating to this Agreement or the Notes, or (z) if an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, to the extent such Purchaser may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary
or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under such Purchaser’s Notes and this
Agreement. Each holder of a Note, by such holder’s acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and
to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 19 as though such holder were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request
by the Company in connection with the delivery to any holder of a Note of information required to be delivered to such holder under
this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or such holder’s nominee),

or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such
provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

          Section 20.4.          Construction.
Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other
covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed
to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which
such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly
by such Person.

 

          Section 20.5.          Counterparts.

of Right to Jury Trial. EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE PURCHASERS HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT

READ AND UNDERSTANDS THE MEANING AND RAMIFICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (b) THIS WAIVER HAS BEEN REVIEWED BY SUCH PURCHASER AND
SUCH PURCHASER’S COUNSEL AND IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE COMPANY TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER TRANSACTION

(or, at the option of the registered holder hereof, on demand), at a rate per annum from time to time equal to the Default Rate,
as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement referred to below.

 

Exhibit

(to Note Purchase Agreement)

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

Payments of principal
of and interest on this Note are to be made in lawful money of the United States of America at the offices of the Company, or at
such other place as the Company shall have designated by written notice to the holder of this Note, as provided in the Note Purchase
Agreement referred to below.

 

This Note is one of
a series of Subordinated Notes (herein called the “Notes”) issued pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement dated
as of April 20, 2012 (as from time to time amended, the “Note Purchase Agreement”), between the Company
and the respective Purchasers named therein, and is entitled to the benefits thereof. Each holder of this Note will be deemed,
by its acceptance hereof, (i) to have agreed to the confidentiality provisions set forth in Section 20 of the Note Purchase

Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Note

the date hereof, the Company may prepay all or part of the outstanding unpaid principal balance under this Note without penalty,

to obtain prior FRB approval before making any prepayment (including payment pursuant to an acceleration clause or redemption prior

This Note is not secured
by any assets of the Company or any other collateral.

 

If an Event of Default
described in subsections (g)(i) or (ii) of Section 11 of the Note Purchase Agreement occurs and is continuing, the principal
of this Note may be declared or otherwise become due and payable by the Required Holders in the manner, at the price and with the
effect provided in the Note Purchase Agreement.

 

The rights of payment
of the principal sum hereunder or any part hereof and to any accrued interest thereon shall remain subject, and subordinate and

and, upon dissolution or liquidation of the Company, no payment of principal, interest or premium (including post-default interest)
shall be due and payable under the terms of this Note until all general creditors of the Company shall have been paid in full.
In particular, the rights of payment of the principal sum hereunder or any part hereof and to any accrued interest thereon shall
remain subject and subordinate to (a) all purchased and borrowed money of the Company, (b) similar obligations of the
Company arising from off-balance sheet guarantees and direct credit substitutes, and (c) obligations of the Company associated
with derivative products such as interest and foreign exchange rate contracts, commodity contracts, and similar arrangements. In
the event of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, conservatorship, reorganization, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets
and liabilities or similar proceedings, after payment in full of all sums owing on such prior obligations, the holder of this Note
shall be entitled to be paid from the remaining assets of the Company the unpaid principal hereof and any unpaid premium, if any,
and interest before any payment or other distribution, whether in cash, property or otherwise (including post-default interest),

of the principal sum hereunder or any part hereof and to any accrued interest thereon shall be and remain pari passu and

of the Company evidenced by the 10% Subordinated Notes dated December 23, 2009, issued by the Company in the aggregate principal
amount of $35,250,000.

12 of the Note Purchase Agreement. The Company shall reimburse and indemnify and hold such holder hereof harmless from and against
any reasonable costs (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by such holder in the collection of
any amounts due as a result of an Event of Default or as otherwise provided in the Note Purchase Agreement.

 

This Note is a registered
Note and, as provided in the Note Purchase Agreement, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer, duly endorsed,
or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed, by the registered holder hereof or such holder’s attorney
duly authorized in writing, a new Note for a like principal amount will be issued to, and registered in the name of, the transferee.
Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Company may treat the person in whose name this Note is registered as
the owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment and for all other purposes, and the Company will not be affected by any notice
to the contrary.

 

This Note shall be
