Summary of Terms of Warrant Plan EXHIBIT 4.3
The Warrant Plan provides that, upon the occurrence of certain events, the
initial exercise price set forth on the face of this Warrant Certificate may,
subject to specified conditions, be adjusted (such exercise price, as initially
established or as adjusted from time to time, is referred to herein as the
"Exercise Price"). If the Exercise Price is adjusted, the Warrant Plan provides
that the number of shares which can be purchased upon the exercise of each
Warrant represented by this Warrant Certificate and the type of securities or
other property subject to purchase upon the exercise of each Warrant represented
by this Warrant Certificate are subject to modification or adjustment.
The Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate shall be exercisable until
5:00 p.m. on ___________________________ or sooner if called in accordance with
the Warrant Plan.
In the event that upon any exercise the number of Warrants exercised shall be
fewer than the total number of Warrants represented hereby, there shall be
issued to the holder hereof or his assignee a new Warrant Certificate evidencing
the Warrants not so exercised.
No payment or adjustment will be made for any cash dividends, whether paid or
declared, on any shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant. The Company shall
not be required to issue fractions of shares or any certificates which evidence
fractional shares. In lieu of a fractional share, if any, there shall be paid to
the registered holder of a Warrant with regard to which the fractional share
would be issuable, an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current
market value (as determined pursuant to the Warrant Plan) of a share.
The Company may deem and treat the registered holder of this Warrant Certificate
as the absolute owner hereof and of the Warrants represented by this Warrant
Certificate (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing hereon
made by anyone) for the purposes of any exercise of such Warrants and for all
other purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the
contrary.
Prior to the exercise of the Warrants represented hereby, the registered holder
of this Warrant Certificate, shall not be entitled to vote on or be deemed the
holder of Common Stock or any other securities of the Company which may at any
time be issuable on the exercise hereof for any purpose, and nothing contained
in the Warrant Plan or herein shall be construed to confer upon the holder of
this Warrant Certificate, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or
any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to
stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any
corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issue of stock,
reclassification of stock, change of par value or change of stock to no par
value, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise) or to receive notice of
meetings or other actions affecting stockholders or to receive dividends or
subscription rights or otherwise.
Warrants are callable any time after the expiration of a 12-month period
following the opening of Marco Community Bank.
Upon surrender of this Warrant Certificate with the form of Assignment below
duly completed and executed, a new Warrant Certificate or Certificates
representing the Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate will be issued
to the transferee; provided, however, that if the registered holder of this
Warrant Certificate elects to transfer fewer than all Warrants represented by
this Warrant Certificate, a new Warrant Certificate for the Warrants not so
transferred will be issued to such registered holder. This Warrant Certificate,
together with other Warrant Certificates, may be exchanged by the registered
holder for another Warrant Certificate or Certificates of different
denominations, of like tenor and representing in the aggregate Warrants equal in
number to the same full number of Warrants represented by this Warrant
Certificate and any other Warrant Certificate so exchanged.
Warrants may only be transferred to: (i) a parent, sibling, spouse, child, or
grandchild of the holder; (ii) to a pension or profit sharing plan of which the
holder or holder's spouse is a beneficiary; (iii) to a business entity or trust

exchange which will result in the issuance of a Warrant Certificate for a
fraction of a Warrant.
