The term “Confidential Information” does not include any information that (a) at the time of disclosure or thereafter is generally available to and known to the public, other than by a breach of this Agreement by the disclosing party, (b) was available to the disclosing party, prior to disclosure by a Covered Entity, on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the non-disclosing party and such source is not known by the Undersigned to be subject to any fiduciary, contractual or legal obligations of confidentiality, (c) was independently acquired or developed without violating any obligations of this Agreement, or (d) is disclosed with the consent of a Covered Entity, as the case may be, with respect to that entity’s Confidential Information.

4.    Release.

a) Effective at and as of the Effective Time of the Merger, the Undersigned, on the Undersigned’s behalf and on behalf of the Undersigned’s heirs, executors, administrators, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Undersigned Group Persons”) hereby irrevocably and unconditionally releases, waives, acquits and forever discharges the Covered Entities and their respective successors, predecessors, parents, subsidiaries, affiliates and other related entities, and all of their respective past, present and future officers, directors, shareholders, affiliates, agents and representatives, other than the Undersigned and any Undersigned Group Person (each, a “Released Party” and collectively, the “Released Parties”) from any and all manners of actions, causes of action, suits, debts, dues, sums of money, accounts, reckonings, bonds, bills, covenants, contracts, controversies, agreements, promises, variances, trespasses, damages, judgments, executions, claims and demands of every type and nature whatsoever, known and unknown, matured or unmatured, direct or derivative, liquidated or unliquidated, in each case, in law or equity, now existing or that may arise after the date hereof (each a “Claim” and collectively, the “Claims”), relating to, arising out of or in connection with the Company or Legacy Bank and their respective businesses or assets, including any Claims arising out of or resulting from the Undersigned’s status, relationship, affiliation, rights, obligations and duties as a director, officer, employee or security holder of the Company or Legacy Bank, as the case may be, for all periods occurring prior to the Effective Time of the Merger; provided, however, that a Released Party shall not be released from any of its obligations or liabilities to any of the Undersigned Group Persons: (i) in connection with any accrued compensation and rights under any benefit plans of the Company or Legacy Bank of a type reflected in [Schedule 3.27(A)] of the Confidential Schedules to the Merger Agreement, including any medical claims not yet filed, (ii) as to any rights of indemnification pursuant to the articles of incorporation or articles of association and bylaws of the Company and Legacy Bank, pursuant to any contractual rights or insurance policies, or available at law or in equity, (iii) in connection with bank owned life insurance, (iv) in connection with any deposits, loans or similar accounts of the Undersigned or the

-4-

Undersigned Group Persons at Legacy Bank or Prosperity Bank, (v) in connection with any obligations owing to the Undersigned under the contracts set forth on Schedule B of this Agreement, or (vi) in connection with rights under the Merger Agreement of the Undersigned, in [his/her] capacity as a stockholder of the Company.

b) The Undersigned hereby represents and warrants that in [his/her] capacity as a director, officer, employee or security holder of the Company or Legacy Bank, as applicable, the Undersigned has no knowledge of any Claims that the Undersigned has or would reasonably be expected to have against the Released Parties, except for any claims specifically described on Schedule C of this Agreement.

5.    Non-Competition Covenant Reasonable. The Undersigned acknowledges that the restrictions imposed by this Agreement are legitimate, reasonable and necessary to protect Prosperity’s acquisition of the Company and the goodwill thereof. The Undersigned acknowledges that the scope and duration of the restrictions contained herein are reasonable in light of the time that the Undersigned has been engaged in the business of the Company or Legacy Bank and the Undersigned’s relationship with the customers of the Company or Legacy Bank. The Undersigned agrees that [his/her] promises in this Section 5 are reasonable and reasonably necessary to protect the legitimate business interest of the Company, Legacy Bank and Prosperity.

6.    Consideration. In consideration for the above obligations of the Undersigned, in addition to those matters set forth in the Recitals to this Agreement, the Company agrees to provide the Undersigned with access to new Confidential Information relating to the Company’s business, which will become Prosperity’s business after the Effective Time of the Merger, in a greater quantity or expanded nature than that already provided to the Undersigned. The Undersigned also will have access to, or knowledge of, new Confidential Information of third parties, including, without limitation, actual and potential customers, suppliers, partners, joint venturers, investors, and financing sources of the Company and Legacy Bank prior to the Merger and of Prosperity and Prosperity Bank after the Effective Time of the Merger.

7.    Enforcement and Legal Remedies. The Undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the breach of any of the covenants made by the Undersigned in this Agreement would cause irreparable injury to the Covered Entities, which could not sufficiently be remedied by monetary damages; and, therefore, that each of the Company, Legacy Bank and Prosperity shall be entitled to seek such equitable relief as declaratory judgments; temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctions, without posting of any bond, and order of specific performance to enforce those covenants or to prohibit any act or omission that constitutes a breach thereof. The Undersigned also agrees and understands that such remedies shall be in addition to any and all remedies, including damages, available to the Company, Legacy Bank and Prosperity and their respective affiliates against the Undersigned for such breaches.

8.    Tolling. In the event that the Company, Legacy Bank or Prosperity shall file a lawsuit in any court of competent jurisdiction alleging a breach of the non-competition provisions of this Agreement by the Undersigned, then any time period set forth in this

-5-

Agreement including the time periods set forth above, will be extended one month for each month the Undersigned was in breach of this Agreement, so that the Company, Legacy Bank or Prosperity is provided the benefit of the full Non-Competition Period.

9.    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION, OR CAUSE OF ACTION (A) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR (B) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT, IN EACH CASE, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY, OR OTHERWISE. THE PARTIES HEREBY FURTHER AGREE AND CONSENT THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT THE PARTIES MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.
