REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
To induce the Bank to enter into this Agreement and to make Revolving Loans hereunder, the Borrower represents and warrants to the Bank:
Section 4.1.    Organization, Standing, Etc.  The Borrower is a corporation duly incorporated and validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction named in the opening paragraph hereof and has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted, to enter into this Agreement and to issue the Note and to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents.  Each Subsidiary is duly organized and validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted.  Each of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries (a) holds all certificates of authority, licenses and permits necessary to carry on its business as presently conducted in each jurisdiction in which it is carrying on such business, except where the failure to hold such certificates, licenses or permits could not reasonably be expected to constitute a Material Adverse Occurrence and (b) is duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign corporation (or other organization) in each jurisdiction in which the character of the properties owned, leased or operated by it or the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary and the failure so to qualify would permanently preclude the Borrower or such Subsidiary from enforcing its rights with respect to any assets or expose the Borrower to any Material Adverse Occurrence.
Section 4.2.    Authorization and Validity.  The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Loan Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action by the Borrower. This Agreement constitutes, and the Note and other Loan Documents when executed will constitute, the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their respective terms, subject to limitations as to enforceability which might result from bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to limitations on the availability of equitable remedies.
Section 4.3.    No Conflict; No Default.  The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Loan Documents will not (a) violate any provision of any law, statute, rule or regulation or any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award of any court, governmental agency or arbitrator presently in effect having applicability to the Borrower, (b) violate or contravene any provision of the Articles of Incorporation or Regulations of the Borrower, or (c) result in a breach of or constitute a default under any indenture, loan or credit agreement or any other agreement, lease or instrument to which the Borrower is a party or by which it or any of its properties may be bound or result in the creation of any Lien thereunder.  

18

No Event of Default exists or would result from the incurrence by the Borrower of any Indebtedness hereunder or under any other Loan Document.  Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is in default under or in violation of any such law, statute, rule or regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award or any such indenture, loan or credit agreement or other agreement, lease or instrument in any case in which the consequences of such default or violation could reasonably be expected to constitute a Material Adverse Occurrence.  The Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their respective officers and employees and to the knowledge of the Borrower its directors and agents, are in compliance with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions in all material respects.  None of the Borrower, any Subsidiary or to the knowledge of the Borrower or such Subsidiary any of their respective directors, officers or employees is a Sanctioned Person.  No Loan, use of the proceeds of any Loan or other transactions contemplated hereby will violate Anti-Corruption Laws or applicable Sanctions.  The Borrower and its Subsidiaries have all permits, licenses and approvals required by such laws, copies of which have been provided to the Bank.  The Borrower and its Subsidiaries are in compliance in all material respects with the PATRIOT Act.  Neither the making of any Loan nor the use of the proceeds thereof will violate the PATRIOT Act, the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, or any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 C.F.R., Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) or any enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto or successor statute thereto.  
Section 4.4.    Government Consent.  No order, consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by, any governmental or public body or authority is required on the part of the Borrower to authorize, or is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of, or the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of, the Loan Documents.
Section 4.5.    Financial Statements and Condition.  The Borrower’s audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2015, and the Borrower’s unaudited quarterly financial statements as of March 31, 2016 (or, in each case, as of the date of any subsequently-delivered financial statements), as heretofore furnished to the Bank, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP on a consistent basis (except, in the case of the unaudited quarterly financial statements, for the absence of footnotes and for year-end audit adjustments) and fairly present in all material respects the financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a consolidated enterprise, as at such dates and the results of their operations for the fiscal year then ended.  As of the dates of such consolidated financial statements, neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary had any material obligation, contingent liability, liability for taxes or long term lease obligation which is not reflected in such consolidated financial statements or in the notes thereto.  The Borrower’s Call Reports and other regulatory reports, including without limitation FRY-9C, and FRY-9LP reports, as heretofore furnished to the Bank, fairly present the financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at such dates and the results of their operations and changes in financial position for the respective periods then ended.  As of the dates of such reports, neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary had any material obligation, contingent liability, liability for taxes or long-term lease obligation which is not reflected in such Call Reports.  Since December 31, 2015, there has been no Material Adverse Occurrence.
Section 4.6.    Litigation.  There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any Subsidiary or 

19

any of their properties before any court or arbitrator, or any governmental department, board, agency or other instrumentality which, if determined adversely to the Borrower or any Subsidiary, could reasonably be expected to constitute a Material Adverse Occurrence, and there are no unsatisfied judgments against the Borrower or Subsidiary, the satisfaction or payment of which could reasonably be expected to constitute a Material Adverse Occurrence.
Section 4.7.    Environmental, Health and Safety Laws.  There does not exist any violation by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of any applicable federal, state or local law, rule or regulation or order of any government, governmental department, board, agency or other instrumentality relating to environmental, pollution, health, safety or other matters which has, will or threatens to constitute a Material Adverse Occurrence.  Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary has received any notice to the effect that any part of its operations or properties is not in material compliance with any such law, rule, regulation or order or notice that it or its property is the subject of any governmental investigation evaluating whether any remedial action is needed to respond to any release of any toxic or hazardous waste or substance into the environment, which non-compliance or remedial action could reasonably be expected to constitute a Material Adverse Occurrence.  The Borrower does not have knowledge that it or its property or any Subsidiary or the property of any Subsidiary will become subject to environmental laws or regulations during the term of this Agreement, compliance with which could reasonably be expected to require capital expenditures which could reasonably be expected to constitute a Material Adverse Occurrence.
Section 4.8.    ERISA.  Each Plan is in substantial compliance with all applicable requirements of ERISA and the Code and with all material applicable rulings and regulations issued under the provisions of ERISA and the Code setting forth those requirements.  No Reportable Event has occurred and is continuing with respect to any Plan which could reasonably be expected to constitute a Material Adverse Occurrence.  All of the minimum funding standards applicable to such Plans have been satisfied and there exists no event or condition which would reasonably be expected to result in the institution of proceedings to terminate any Plan under Section 4042 of ERISA.  With respect to each Plan subject to Title IV of ERISA, as of the most recent valuation date for such Plan, the present value (determined on the basis of reasonable assumptions employed by the independent actuary for such Plan and previously furnished in writing to the Bank) of such Plan’s projected benefit obligations did not exceed the fair market value of such Plan’s assets.
Section 4.9.    Federal Reserve Regulations.  Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is engaged principally or as one of its important activities in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock (as defined in Regulation U of the Board).  The value of all margin stock owned by the Borrower does not constitute more than 25% of the value of the assets of the Borrower.
Section 4.10.    Title to Property; Leases; Liens; Subordination.  Each of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries has (a) good and marketable title to its material real properties and (b) good and sufficient title to, or valid, subsisting and enforceable leasehold interest in, its other material properties, including all real properties, other properties and assets, referred to as owned by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in the most recent financial statement referred to in Section 5.1 

20

(other than property disposed of since the date of such financial statements in the ordinary course of business).  None of such properties is subject to a Lien, except as allowed under Section 6.12. 
Section 4.11.    Taxes.  Each of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries has filed all federal, state and local tax returns required to be filed and has paid or made provision for the payment of all taxes due and payable pursuant to such returns and pursuant to any assessments made against it or any of its property and all other taxes, fees and other charges imposed on it or any of its property by any governmental authority (other than taxes, fees or charges the amount or validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in accordance with GAAP have been provided on the books of the Borrower).  No material tax Liens have been filed and no material claims are being asserted with respect to any such taxes, fees or charges.  The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Borrower in respect of taxes and other governmental charges are adequate and the Borrower knows of no proposed material tax assessment against it or any Subsidiary or any basis therefor.
Section 4.12.    Trademarks, Patents.  Each of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries possesses or has the right to use all of the patents, trademarks, trade names, service marks and copyrights, and applications therefor, and all technology, know-how, processes, methods and designs used in or necessary for the conduct of its business, without known conflict with the rights of others.
Section 4.13.    Burdensome Restrictions.  Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is a party to or otherwise bound by any indenture, loan or credit agreement or any lease or other agreement or instrument or subject to any charter, corporate or partnership restriction which could reasonably be expected to constitute a Material Adverse Occurrence.
Section 4.14.    Force Majeure.  Since the date of the most recent financial statements referred to in Section 4.5 or delivered pursuant to Section 5.1, the business, properties and other assets of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries have not been materially and adversely affected in any way as the result of any fire or other casualty, strike, lockout, or other labor trouble, embargo, sabotage, confiscation, condemnation, riot, civil disturbance, activity of armed forces or act of God which has not been disclosed to the Bank and accepted as an exception to this representation and warranty in a writing by the Bank.
Section 4.15.    Investment Company Act.  Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an investment company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
Section 4.16.    Retirement Benefits.  Except as required under Section 4980B of the Code, Section 601 of ERISA or applicable state law, neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is obligated to provide post-retirement medical or insurance benefits with respect to employees or former employees.
Section 4.17.    Full Disclosure.  Subject to the following sentence, neither the financial statements referred to in Section 5.1 nor any other certificate, written statement, exhibit or report furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not misleading.  Certificates or statements 

21

furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Subsidiary to the Bank consisting of projections or forecasts of future results or events have been prepared in good faith and based on good faith estimates and assumptions of the management of the Borrower or such Subsidiary, and the Borrower has no reason to believe that such projections or forecasts are not reasonable.
Section 4.18.    Subsidiaries.  Schedule 4.18 sets forth, as of the date of this Agreement and as the same may be amended from time to time in connection with delivery of Compliance Certificates pursuant to Section 5.1(c), a list of all Subsidiaries (including Subsidiary Banks) and the number and percentage of the shares of each class of Equity Interests owned beneficially or of record by the Borrower or any Subsidiary therein, and the jurisdiction of incorporation of each Subsidiary.  None of the Subsidiary Banks is subject to any Regulatory Action which has not been disclosed in the Borrower’s call reports filed prior to the Closing Date.
Section 4.19.    Labor Matters.  There are no pending or, to the Borrower’s knowledge,  threatened, strikes, lockouts or slowdowns against the Borrower or any Subsidiary which has not been disclosed to the Bank and accepted as an exception to this representation and warranty in a writing by the Bank. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary has been or is in violation in any material respect of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Federal, state, local or foreign law dealing with such matters. All payments due from the Borrower or any Subsidiary on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits (in each case, except for de minimus amounts), have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of the Borrower or such Subsidiary. The consummation of the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents will not give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary is bound.
Section 4.20.    Bank Holding Company Act.  The Borrower has complied in all material respects with all federal, state and local laws pertaining to bank holding companies, including without limitation, the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended.
Section 4.21.    Capital Stock.  Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary Bank has issued any unregistered securities in violation of the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any other law; or violated any rule, regulation or requirement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in either case, where the effect of such violation could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Occurrence.
Section 4.22.    Solvency.  As of the Closing Date, (a) the fair value of the assets of the Borrower, at a fair valuation, will exceed its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise; (b) the present fair saleable value of the property of the Borrower will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of its debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured; (c) the Borrower will be able to pay its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured; and (d) the Borrower will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the business in which it is engaged as such business is proposed to be conducted following the Closing Date.

22

Section 4.23.    Insurance.  The Borrower maintains, and has caused each Subsidiary to maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies insurance on all their Property in such amounts, subject to such deductibles and self-insurance retentions and covering such properties and risks as are consistent with sound business practice and as are customarily carried by companies engaged in similar business and owning similar properties in localities where the Borrower and its Subsidiaries operate.
Section 4.24.    Restrictive Agreements.  Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is a party to or bound by any agreement, bond, note or other instrument of the type described in Section 6.6.
