WHEREAS, receiving the Sunnyside Shareholder Approval is a condition to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; and

WHEREAS, as an inducement to Rhodium to enter into the Merger Agreement and incur the obligations therein, Rhodium has required that the Shareholder enter into this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Section 1. Agreement to Vote, Restrictions on Voting and Dispositions, Revocation of Proxies.

(a) Agreement to Vote Sunnyside Common Stock. The Shareholder irrevocably and unconditionally hereby agrees that from the date hereof until the Expiration Time (as defined in Section 5 hereof), at any meeting (whether annual or special and each adjourned or postponed meeting) of Sunnyside’s shareholders, however called or in connection with any written consent of Sunnyside’s shareholders called to vote on the Merger Agreement, the Shareholder will (x) appear at such meeting or otherwise cause its Owned Shares (as defined below) to be counted as present thereat for purposes of calculating a quorum and (y) vote or cause to be voted all of the Shares beneficially owned by the Shareholder as of the relevant time (the “Owned Shares”), (1) in favor of the approval of the Merger Agreement, (2) against any Acquisition Proposal, without regard to any recommendation to the shareholders of Sunnyside by the Board of Directors of Sunnyside concerning such Acquisition Proposal, and without regard to the terms of such Acquisition Proposal, or any other proposal made in opposition to or that is otherwise in competition or inconsistent with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (3) against any agreement, amendment of any agreement (including the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of Sunnyside or the Charter and Bylaws of the Bank), or any other action that is intended or would reasonably be expected to prevent, impede, or, in any material respect, interfere with, delay, postpone, or discourage the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, or (4) against any action, agreement, transaction or proposal that would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or other obligation of Sunnyside in the Merger Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owned Shares in this Section 1(a) shall not apply to Shares over which the Shareholder (i) does not have sole or shared voting power or (ii) has or shares voting power solely in a fiduciary capacity on behalf of any other person(s) if the Shareholder determines in good faith that such a vote would cause a breach of fiduciary duties to such person(s).

(b) Restrictions on Transfers. Except as otherwise consented to by Rhodium (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the Shareholder hereby agrees that, from the date hereof until the Expiration Time, the Shareholder shall not, directly or indirectly, sell, offer to sell, give, pledge, encumber, assign, tender, exchange, grant any option for the sale of or otherwise transfer or dispose of, or enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding to sell, any Shares (collectively “Transfer”) other than in connection with bona fide estate planning purposes to his or her affiliates or immediate family members, provided that as a condition to such Transfer, such affiliate or immediate family member shall execute an agreement that is identical to this Agreement (except to reflect the change in the identity of the Shareholder) and provided, further that the assigning Shareholder shall remain jointly and severally liable for the breaches of any of his or her affiliates or immediate family members of the terms hereof. Any Transfer in violation of this provision shall be void. The Shareholder further agrees to authorize and request Sunnyside to notify Sunnyside’s transfer agent, if any, or registrar that there is a stop transfer order with respect to all of the Shares owned by the Shareholder and that this Agreement places limits on the voting of the Shareholder’s Shares.

(c) Transfer of Voting Rights. The Shareholder hereby agrees that the Shareholder shall not deposit any Shares in a voting trust, grant any proxy or power of attorney or enter into any voting agreement or similar agreement or arrangement in contravention of the obligations of the Shareholder under this Agreement with respect to any of the Shares.

(d) Acquired Shares. Any Shares or other voting securities of Sunnyside with respect to which beneficial ownership is acquired by the Shareholder or its affiliates, including, without limitation, by purchase, as a result of a stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification, exchange or change of such Shares or upon exercise or conversion of any securities of Sunnyside, if any, after the date hereof shall automatically become subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Inconsistent Agreements. The Shareholder hereby agrees that he or she shall not enter into any agreement, contract or understanding with any person prior to the termination of this Agreement, directly or indirectly, to vote, grant a proxy or power of attorney or give instructions with respect to the voting of the Shareholder’s Shares in any manner which is inconsistent with this Agreement.

(i) Specific Performance; Remedies Cumulative. The parties hereto acknowledge that money damages are not an adequate remedy for violations of this Agreement and that any party, in addition to any other rights and remedies which the parties may have hereunder or at law or in equity, may, in his, her or its sole discretion, apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance or injunction or such other relief as such court may deem just and proper in order to enforce this Agreement or prevent any violation hereof and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each party waives any objection to the imposition of such relief. All rights, powers and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise of any thereof by any party shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such rights, powers or remedies by such party.

(j) No Waiver. The failure of any party hereto to exercise any right, power or remedy provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity, or to insist upon compliance by any other party hereto with his, her or its obligations hereunder, and any custom or practice of the parties at variance with the terms hereof, shall not constitute a waiver by such party of his, her or its right to exercise any such or other right, power or remedy or to demand such compliance.

(k) Governing Law.
