BUYER and SELLERS shall file all tax returns (including amended returns and claims for refund) and information reports in a manner consistent with such allocation and no party shall take any position (whether in audits, tax returns or otherwise) that is inconsistent with such allocation unless required to do so by law.

(c) Reimbursement and Proration of Certain Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all expenses (i) due and payable at times after the Closing Date for periods prior to the close of business on the Closing Date or (ii) paid prior to the close of business on the Closing Date for periods following the Closing Date, including the prepaid expenses described in Section 1.2(d) hereof and deferred expenses described in Section 1.3(d) hereof, including, without limitation, real estate Taxes (as defined below) which are a Lien but not yet due and payable, utility payments, payments due on leases assigned, payments due on assigned service and maintenance contracts and similar expenses relating to the Office, shall be prorated among SELLERS and BUYER as of the close of business on the Closing Date; provided, however, that all real estate Taxes, to the extent payable by SELLERS and/or BUYER, shall be prorated on the Closing Date on the basis of the most recent tax xxxx (or, if not available, the last available tax duplicate). All prorations shall be final. All utility payments and lease payments shall be prorated on the basis of the best information available on the Closing Date. SELLERS will contact all applicable utility providers to effectuate a reading on the Closing Date so that an appropriate transfer from SELLERS to BUYER can occur as of the Closing Date. SELLERS hereby agree to credit BUYER for security deposits relating to the leases included in the Assumed Contracts in an amount equal to Two Thousand Seven Hundred Thirty-Four Dollars and 46/100 ($2,734.46). Any credits to SELLERS at the Closing under this Section 1.4(c) will be added to the Acquisition Consideration, and any credits to BUYER at the Closing under this Section 1.4(c) shall be subtracted from the Acquisition Consideration.

(d) Expenses Relating to Real Estate and other Assets. The transfer (or conveyance) fees relating to the sale of the Real Estate and the costs, fees and expenses of the title examination relating to the procurement of the Title Commitment related to the Real Estate referred to in Sections 2.1(b) and 5.2(f) herein, shall be allocated to, and shall be borne, solely and exclusively by SELLERS. The costs, fees and expenses relating to the premiums, including any endorsements for extended coverage, for all title insurance policies (net of the costs of the Title Commitment and examination), recording costs and other similar costs, fees and expenses, if any, relating to the sale and transfer of the Real Estate, including, but not limited to, any conveyance fees, Taxes, recording costs and other similar fees and expenses relating to the sale and transfer of any other Assets, shall be allocated to, and shall likewise be borne, solely and exclusively, by SELLERS. To the extent BUYER requests SELLERS or their attorneys to seek certain title endorsements or removal of exceptions noted on the Title Commitment, BUYER shall reimburse SELLERS at Closing for their attorney fees related thereto. In no event shall SELLERS be required to undertake any negotiations with the Title Company (defined below) for any matters that relate to the scope of title insurance coverage or the Permitted Exceptions. BUYER shall be credited at the Closing for all the costs, fees and expenses allocated to SELLERS pursuant to this Section 1.4(d) but paid by BUYER, and SELLERS shall be credited at the Closing for all of the costs, fees and expenses allocated to BUYER pursuant to this Section 1.4(d) but paid by SELLERS. Any credits to BUYER at the Closing under this Section 1.4(d) shall be subtracted from the Acquisition Consideration, and any credits to SELLERS at the Closing under this Section 1.4(d) will be added to the Acquisition Consideration. If this transaction does not close by virtue of a breach of this Agreement, the breaching party shall be responsible for and shall, as appropriate, reimburse the other party for its expenses set forth in this Section 1.4(d). If this transaction does not close for any other reason after the date hereof, each party shall reimburse the other party upon termination of this Agreement for such party's share of expenses pursuant to this Section 1.4(d) so that each party shall pay the same share of expenses as it would have paid at Closing.

(e) Insurance Premium Refunds. With respect to the Insured Office Loans (as defined in Section 7.2(l) herein), SELLERS shall provide a credit to BUYER equal to the sum of unearned premiums relating to the Insured Office Loans to compensate BUYER, in advance, for estimated refunds otherwise payable to FNB in conjunction with future payoffs of such Insured Office Loans prior to maturity (the "Premium Settlement Payment"). Such Premium Settlement Payment shall be calculated as of the Closing Date and shall appear as a credit to BUYER in the Final Settlement Statement referenced in Section 6.4 herein.

2. CONDUCT OF THE PARTIES PRIOR TO CLOSING.

2.1 Covenants of SELLERS. SELLERS hereby covenant to BUYER that, from the date hereof until the Closing Date (the “Pre-Closing Period”):

Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the Pre-Closing Period, except as may be required to obtain the required authorizations, consents and approvals referred to in Section 2.3(a) of this Agreement and except as may be otherwise required by a regulatory authority, SELLERS shall not, without the prior consent of BUYER:

(i) permit the Office to engage or participate in any transaction or incur or sustain any obligation except in the ordinary course of business;

(ii) permit the Office to transfer to SELLERS' other operations any of the Assets, except for (A) supplies, if any, which have unique function in the business of SELLERS and its affiliates and ordinarily would not be useful to BUYER, (B) cash and other normal intrabank transfers which may be transferred in the ordinary course of business in accordance with normal banking practices, (C) any current loans not included among the Office Loans, and (D) any loans originated by the Office in the market served thereby during the Pre-Closing Period that are not included among the Office Loans;

(iii) permit the Office to transfer to FNB’s other operations any Deposit Liabilities, other than (A) Deposit Liabilities securing loans made by FNB which are not Office Loans, (B) Deposit Liabilities owned in whole or in part by employees of FNB who are not Transferred Employees, or (C) Deposit Liabilities of current directors of FNB or its affiliates, except in the ordinary course of business at the unsolicited request of depositors, or cause any of FNB's other operations to transfer to the Office any Deposit Liabilities, except in the ordinary course of business at the unsolicited request of depositors; provided, however, that FNB shall be permitted to make such transfers of any Deposit Liabilities to or from the Office as are in the ordinary course of business;

(iv) invest in any Fixed Assets on behalf of the Office, except for commitments made on or before the date of this Agreement which are disclosed to BUYER on Exhibit 1.2(b) of this Agreement and for replacements of furniture, furnishings and equipment and normal maintenance and refurbishing purchased or made in the ordinary course of business;

(v) enter into or amend any continuing contract (other than those related to Deposit Liabilities and loans which are not included as Office Loans), which cannot be terminated without cause and without payment of any amounts as a penalty, bonus, premium or other compensation for termination;

(vi) make any change to FNB’s customary policies for setting rates on deposits offered at the Office.

(b) Title Commitment for Real Estate. NBOH shall make commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to BUYER, at NBOH’s expense, as soon as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement but in no event later than forty-five (45) days after the date of this Agreement, a commitment (the "Title Commitment"), having an effective date as near as practicable to the date of delivery of such Title Commitment, from Kropf, Wagner, Xxxxxxxxxxx & Xxxx, L.L.P. d.b.a. Xxxxx Title and Escrow (the “Title Company”), to issue to BUYER as soon as practicable after the Closing Date, an American Land Title Association ("ALTA") owners (6-17-06 Form) policy, having an effective date as of the Closing Date, covering the Real Estate, in an amount equal to the portion of the Acquisition Consideration allocated to the Real Estate in Section 1.4(a)(iii) hereof, subject to the exceptions specified in the Title Commitment. If title to all or part of the Real Estate is unmarketable or is subject to any Lien, other than the Permitted Exceptions (as defined below) (each a “Title Defect”), then BUYER shall provide written notice thereof to NBOH. NBOH shall have thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from BUYER, to notify BUYER in writing which of such Title Defects shall be cured by NBOH prior to or at Closing. With respect to any Title Defect not elected to be cured by NBOH, BUYER may elect to attempt to cure or remove such Title Defect, for a period of thirty (30) days thereafter. If NBOH elects not to cure any or all Title Defects or any such Title Defect is not cured by BUYER prior to or at the Closing, in addition to any other rights which BUYER may have hereunder, BUYER shall have the right (i) to reduce the Real Estate Consideration by an amount equal to the cost to remove or cure any such Title Defect, as reasonably estimated by BUYER, (ii) to negotiate with the Title Company for certain endorsements to the standard insurance coverage to address any such Title Defects, the cost of which shall be credited against and reduce the Real Estate Consideration, or (ii) to waive any objection to any such Title Defect in which event such Title Defect shall be deemed to be a Permitted Exception. The Real Estate is being sold by NBOH to BUYER hereunder free and clear of all Liens, except for the Permitted Exceptions, and the conveyance by limited warranty deed to be delivered by NBOH pursuant hereto shall be subject only to the Permitted Exceptions (the "Deed"). NBOH also shall execute and deliver to BUYER at the time of the Closing such affidavits and other instruments, if any, as the Title Company may reasonably require to delete any inapplicable standard exceptions appearing as "Schedule B" items in a standard ALTA owners title insurance policy, other than those which may only be deleted by a survey. NBOH also shall execute and deliver a so-called "FIRPTA" affidavit at Closing.

(c) Required Authorizations. SELLERS shall obtain and procure all necessary consents, approvals and authorizations, if any, required by SELLERS to enable them to fully perform all obligations imposed on them hereunder which must be performed by them at or prior to the Closing.

(d) Creation of Liens. With respect to the Real Estate, SELLERS shall not create or allow any Liens, other than the Permitted Exceptions.

(e) Insurance Proceeds and Casualty Payments. SELLERS shall maintain adequate insurance on all of the Real Estate and Fixed Assets. In the event of any damage or destruction affecting such Assets during the Pre-Closing Period, SELLERS shall deliver to BUYER at the Closing any such insurance proceeds received by SELLERS as a result thereof (adding into such amount the amount of any deductible), to the extent of the applicable amount in Section 1.4(a)(iii) with respect to the Real Estate and to the extent of the amount set forth in Section 1.4(a)(iv) with respect to the Fixed Assets, as the case may be, unless SELLERS have repaired or replaced the damaged or destroyed property.

(f) IRAs. Not later than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date, FNB shall, at FNB's expense, mail notice of FNB's resignation as custodian and the appointment of BUYER as the successor custodian, effective upon the Closing Date, of each XXX maintained at the Office. The notice shall include such other information as is mutually agreed upon by FNB and BUYER.

(g) Assignment of Leases. SELLERS shall obtain any consent necessary to assign or transfer to BUYER, or substitute BUYER as landlord under, the lease by which a third party leases space in the Real Estate, in form and content reasonably satisfactory to BUYER, it being understood that the assignments of said leases in their current forms or without material changes shall be acceptable to BUYER. In the event that any such assignment is not obtained or other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to BUYER are not made prior to the Closing, SELLERS shall indemnify, defend and hold BUYER harmless from and against any Losses arising from or relating to such lease and lessee.

(h) BUYER Attendance. SELLERS shall permit representatives of BUYER to attend such meetings of SELLERS with regard to the Office and business of the Office as BUYER may reasonably request, to review such books and records of SELLERS (during normal business hours) as may reasonably be relevant to the transactions contemplated hereby (in SELLERS’ opinion), and to consult with FNB with regard to any of the Office Loans.

(i) New Loans. FNB shall make available to BUYER the opportunity to participate in any new loans originated at the Office in the market served by it during the Pre-Closing Period (each such loan an “Interim Loan” and collectively with all other Interim Loans the “Interim Loans”). Prior to issuing a loan commitment for any such Interim Loan, FNB shall notify BUYER in writing of the terms of such Interim Loan and BUYER shall have the right, exercisable within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice, to agree to participate in such Interim Loan up to fifty percent (50%) of the principal amount of the Interim Loan. If BUYER so elects to participate, the parties hereby agree that BUYER shall be the originating lender and FNB shall be the participating lender and the Interim Loan shall be originated using BUYER’s forms.

(j) Real Estate Documentation. SELLERS shall provide to BUYER copies of the following documents/information in its possession, if any, relating to the Real Estate: (i) blueprints and schematic drawings, and (ii) true and complete copies of all reports and results of any studies, analyses, tests, investigations or monitoring, possessed or initiated by SELLERS pertaining to the Real Estate, including, without limitation, any prior title commitments and title policies. In the event this Agreement terminates for any reason, BUYER shall promptly return to SELLERS any such documents/information received from SELLERS.

2.2 Covenants of BUYER. BUYER hereby covenants to SELLERS that, during the Pre-Closing Period:

(a) Regulatory Applications. BUYER shall prepare and submit for filing, at no expense to SELLERS, any and all applications, filings, and registrations with, and notifications to, all federal and state authorities, and all public notices, required on the part of BUYER or any affiliate of BUYER for the Acquisition to be consummated on the terms set forth herein and for BUYER to operate the Office following the Closing.

Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 10.2 hereof, from and after the Closing Date, BUYER shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend SELLERS from and against any and all Losses which SELLERS may receive, suffer, or incur arising out of, relating to or in connection with any actions, suits or proceedings (other than any proceedings to prevent or limit the consummation of the Acquisition) related to (i) any inaccuracy in any of the representations and warranties, or breach or nonperformance of any of the covenants, made by BUYER herein, (ii) SELLERS' compliance with instructions from BUYER made pursuant to Section 7.4 of this Agreement and not related to any gross negligence or malfeasance on the part of SELLERS, (iii) operations and transactions occurring after the Closing Date and which involve the Assets transferred, the Deposit Liabilities or the Office Loans being transferred to BUYER or the Assumed Liabilities (except to the extent that the Losses arise from or relate to the operations at the Office on or prior to the Closing Date), (iv) the operations at the Office after the Closing Date, (v) the ownership of the Real Estate after the Closing Date, and (vi) the imposition (including by operation of law or otherwise) by a third party of any of the Assumed Liabilities on SELLERS. The obligations of BUYER under this Section 8.4 shall be contingent upon SELLERS giving BUYER written notice (i) of the receipt by SELLERS of any process and/or pleadings in or relating to any actions, suits or proceedings of the kinds described in this Section 8.4, including copies thereof, and (ii) of the assertion of any claim or demand relating to the foregoing, including, to the extent known to SELLERS, the identity of the person(s) asserting such claim or making such demand and the nature thereof, and including copies of any correspondence or other writings relating thereto. All notices required by the preceding sentence shall be given within fifteen (15) days of the receipt by SELLERS of any such process or pleadings or any oral or written notice of the assertion of any such claims or demands. BUYER shall have the right to assume SELLERS’ defense in any such actions, suits, or proceedings through counsel selected by BUYER (reasonably acceptable to SELLERS), to compromise and/or settle the same and to prosecute any available appeals or review any adverse judgment or ruling that may be entered therein; provided, however, that SELLERS shall have the right, at their own expense, to participate jointly with BUYER in the defense of any such actions, suits or proceedings. Notwithstanding the right of SELLERS to participate, BUYER shall have the sole right to compromise and/or settle any such actions, suits or proceedings on such terms as BUYER, in its sole discretion, shall deem appropriate with respect to any issue involved in any such actions, suits or proceedings as to which: (a) BUYER has acknowledged the obligation to indemnify SELLERS hereunder and the settlement is solely for cash (and SELLERS receive a complete release in connection therewith); or (b) SELLERS shall have declined to participate. The availability of indemnification pursuant to this Section 8.4 shall not prevent SELLERS from seeking any other remedy otherwise available to SELLERS, including remedies at law or in equity.

8.5 Solicitation of Customers by BUYER Prior to Closing. At any time during the Pre-Closing Period, BUYER will not, and will cause its affiliates not to, conduct any marketing, media or customer solicitation campaign which is specifically or directly targeted to induce customers whose Deposit Account liabilities are to be assumed or Office Loans are to be acquired by BUYER pursuant to this Agreement to discontinue their account or business relationships with FNB.

8.6 Solicitation of Customers by FNB After the Closing. For a period of four (4) years following the Closing Date, neither FNB nor any affiliate thereof will solicit (a) deposit accounts from customers whose Deposit Liabilities and/or Office Loans are assumed or acquired by BUYER pursuant to this Agreement, (b) refinancing of Office Loans from borrowers whose Office Loans are being acquired by BUYER hereunder, or (c) any persons located within a ten (10) mile radius of the Office, provided that, such radius does not extend beyond the boundaries of Summit County, Ohio (the “Territory”), to provide to such persons any retail, commercial, fiduciary, or wealth management services similar to or competitive with those services provided by BUYER; provided, however, that the foregoing (a), (b) and (c) shall not apply to (i) existing customers of FNB’s offices other than the Office or persons who are employees or current directors of FNB or any affiliate of FNB, (ii) any general advertisement by FNB or an affiliate regarding its banking products or other services, or (iii) any person who becomes a customer of FNB or an affiliate of FNB or seeks the services provided by FNB or an affiliate of FNB on such person's own initiative.

8.7 Further Assurances. From and after the date hereof, each party hereto agrees to execute and deliver such instruments and to take such other actions as the other party(ies) hereto may reasonably request in order to carry out and implement this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, SELLERS agree to execute and deliver such deeds, bills of sale, acknowledgments, and other instruments of conveyance and transfer as shall be necessary and appropriate to vest in BUYER the legal and equitable title to the Assets being conveyed to BUYER hereunder. Further, BUYER, at its sole cost and expense, shall prepare and shall file, or shall cause to be prepared and filed, with any appropriate third parties, any and all documents and notices which are necessary and proper to transfer to BUYER any security interests and other rights of FNB in and to collateral securing the Office Loans. SELLERS shall cooperate with BUYER in executing any necessary and proper documents and notices as may be appropriate in furtherance of the foregoing covenant and consistent with the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall relieve BUYER of its obligations as set forth herein.

8.8 Operation of the Office. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, after the Closing Date, neither FNB, nor its subsidiaries or affiliates shall be obligated to provide for any managerial, financial, business, or other services to the Office, including, without limitation, any personnel, employee benefit, data processing, accounting, risk management, or other services or assistance that may have been provided to the Office prior to the Closing Date, and BUYER shall take such action as may in its judgment be necessary or advisable to provide for the ongoing operation and management of, and the provision of services and assistance to, the Office after the Closing Date. Within five (5) days after the Closing Date, BUYER shall change the legal name of the Office and, except for any documents or materials in possession of the customers of the Office (including, but not limited to, deposit tickets and checks), shall not use and shall cause the Office to cease using any signs, stationery, advertising, documents, or printed or written materials that refer to the Office by any name that includes the words "First National Bank," the name of any affiliate of FNB, or any derivations thereof. FNB will retain its signs located at the Office. During the Pre-Closing Period, SELLERS shall cooperate with any reasonable requests of BUYER directed to obtaining specifications for the procurement of new signs of BUYER's choosing for installation by BUYER of new signs immediately following the close of business on the Closing Date; provided, however, that BUYER's receipt of all sign specifications shall be obtained by BUYER in a manner that does not interfere with the normal business activities and operations of the Office and shall be at the sole and exclusive expense of BUYER. BUYER shall remove the “skins” of FNB’s signs with FNB’s name and logo and shall hold them pending pickup by FNB. It is understood by the parties hereto that, with the exception of the “skins,” all mounting facilities, electronics and components for the signs shall be considered as Fixed Assets for purposes of this Agreement.

8.9 Information After Closing. For a period of five (5) years following the Closing Date, upon written request of SELLERS to BUYER or BUYER to SELLERS, as the case may be, such requested party(ies) shall provide the requesting party(ies) with reasonable access to, or copies of, information and records relating to the Office which are then in the possession or control of the requested party(ies) reasonably necessary to permit the requesting party(ies) or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates to comply with or contest any applicable legal, tax, banking, accounting, or regulatory policies or requirements, or any legal or regulatory proceeding thereunder or requests related to customer relationships at the Office prior to the Closing. In the event of any such requests, the requesting party(ies) shall reimburse the requested party(ies) for the reasonable costs of the requested party(ies) related to such request.

8.10 Individual Retirement Accounts. All IRAs related to the Office that shall not have been transferred to BUYER by the close of business on the thirtieth (30^th) day following the Closing Date may be retained by FNB at its option, and for any such IRAs retained, FNB shall advise the account holders that it has withdrawn its resignation as custodian or transfer the amount in such IRAs to the account holders.

8.11 Covenant Not to Compete. For a period of four (4) years following the Closing Date, FNB and its affiliates shall not, and shall not enter into any agreement to, (i) provide to any persons located within the Territory retail, commercial, fiduciary, or wealth management services similar to or competitive with the services provided by BUYER, or (ii) own, operate or use any building, office or other facility or premises located within the Territory for the purpose of operating a branch or loan production office similar to or competitive with the business of the Office as of the Closing Date; provided, however, that the foregoing (i) shall not apply to (A) existing customers of FNB’s offices other than the Office or persons who are employees or current directors of FNB or any affiliate of FNB, (B) any general advertisement by FNB or any affiliate of FNB regarding its banking products or other services, or (C) any person who becomes a customer of FNB or an affiliate of FNB or seeks the services provided by FNB or any affiliate of FNB on such person's own initiative.

8.12 Non-solicitation of Employees. BUYER and SELLERS agree that for a period of twenty-four (24) months after the Closing Date, neither BUYER nor SELLERS nor any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates will directly or indirectly solicit for employment or employ any persons who are employees of the other party(ies) or its/their respective subsidiaries or affiliates as of the Closing Date (except in the case of BUYER, the employment of any Transferred Employees after the Closing). As used solely in this Section 8.12, the term "solicit" shall not be deemed to include general advertisements or general solicitations that are not targeted or directed specifically to individuals who are employees of the other party(ies) or its/their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. Nothing in this Section 8.12 shall prohibit the parties or their respective affiliates or subsidiaries from hiring a person covered by this Section 8.12 who contacts the hiring party on his/her own initiative (and not in response to solicitation by the hiring party in violation of this section) or a person covered by this Section 8.12 who is no longer in the employ of the other party or its respective subsidiaries or affiliates at the time of such solicitation.

8.13 Office-Originated Loans after Closing. BUYER and SELLERS agree that for a period of two (2) years after the Closing Date, BUYER shall make available to FNB the opportunity to participate on any new loans originated at the Office in the market served by it for which loans BUYER seeks or requires participation. BUYER shall provide written notice to FNB prior to the closing of any such loans, and FNB shall have five (5) days from receipt of such notice to elect to so participate in the loans. The terms for participation shall be mutually agreed upon by the parties upon exercise of such option by FNB.

The covenants and obligations of the parties in this Article 8 shall survive the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement, if applicable, in accordance with their respective terms.
