This AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this “Agreement”), dated as of December 3, 2014, is by and among NextEra Energy, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Parent”), NEE Acquisition Sub I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Merger Sub II”), NEE Acquisition Sub II, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub I”), and Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc., a Hawaii corporation (the “Company”).

WHEREAS, the parties hereto intend that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, (a) at the Effective Time, Merger Sub I will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger (the “Initial Merger”) as the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”) and (b) immediately after the Effective Time and without further approval, authorization or direction from or by any of the parties hereto, as part of an integrated plan with the Initial Merger, the Surviving Corporation will merge with and into Merger Sub II (the “Subsequent Merger” and, together with the Initial Merger, the “Integrated Mergers”), with Merger Sub II surviving the Subsequent Merger as the surviving company (the “Surviving Company”);

WHEREAS, it is a condition to the Integrated Mergers that the Company, prior to the Effective Time, distribute to the Company’s shareholders all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of ASB Hawaii, Inc., a Hawaii corporation (“ASB Hawaii”) and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and a direct parent company of American Savings Bank, F.S.B., a federal savings bank (“ASB”) (such distribution referred to as the “Distribution” or the “Bank Spin-Off” and, together with the related transactions, actions, agreements and undertakings in connection therewith, the “Bank Spin-Off Agreements”), such that at the Effective Time, the Company is no longer a savings and loan holding company;

WHEREAS, the board of directors of the Company (the “Company Board”) has (a) determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, and declared it advisable, to enter into this Agreement, (b) adopted and approved the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the Integrated Mergers and (c) resolved to recommend approval of this Agreement by the Company’s shareholders;

WHEREAS, the board of directors of Parent (the “Parent Board”) has authorized and approved the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the Integrated Mergers;

WHEREAS, Parent, as sole shareholder of Merger Sub I, has authorized and approved the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the Initial Merger by Merger Sub I;

WHEREAS, Parent, as sole manager of Merger Sub II, has authorized and approved the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the Subsequent Merger by Merger Sub II;

WHEREAS, for U.S. federal income tax purposes the Integrated Mergers are intended to be treated as a single integrated transaction that will qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment; and

WHEREAS, Parent, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II and the Company desire to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements specified herein in connection with this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, and subject to the conditions set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Parent, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II and the Company agree as follows:

Article I

The Distribution and the Integrated Mergers

Section 1.01 The Distribution.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Bank Spin-Off Agreements, on the Closing Date but prior to the Effective Time and subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by Law) waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VII and the confirmation of Parent and Merger Sub I that each of them is ready, willing and able to consummate the Initial Merger promptly after the consummation of the Distribution, the Company shall cause to be effected the Distribution and the other transactions contemplated by the Bank Spin-Off Agreements, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Bank Spin-Off Agreements.

(b) Each of the Company and Parent shall cooperate reasonably with each other, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to cooperate, such that the Distribution shall be effected on the Closing Date, prior to the Effective Time, with as short as possible of a delay between the consummation of the Distribution and the Effective Time.

Section 1.02 The Initial Merger and the Subsequent Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the requirements set forth in Section 414 of the Hawaii Business Corporation Act (the “HBCA”) and the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), at the Effective Time, Merger Sub I shall be merged with and into the Company, and the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub I shall cease. The Company shall continue as the Surviving Corporation and as a wholly owned Parent Subsidiary. Immediately after the Effective Time, upon the terms set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the requirements set forth in Section 414 of the HBCA and the applicable provisions of the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (the “DLLCA”), the Surviving Corporation shall merge with and into Merger Sub II, and the separate corporate existence of the Surviving Corporation shall cease. At the effective time of the Subsequent Merger, the effects of the Integrated Mergers shall be as provided in this Agreement, the Initial Articles of Merger, the Subsequent Certificate of Merger and the applicable provisions of the HBCA and the DLLCA. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, (i) at the Effective Time, all of the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub I shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub I shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation and (ii) at the effective time of the Subsequent Merger, all of the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Surviving Corporation and Merger Sub II shall vest in the Surviving Company, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation and Merger Sub II shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Company.

Section 1.03 Closing. The closing (the “Closing”) of the Initial Merger shall take place at the offices of Wachtell, Lipton, Xxxxx & Xxxx (“Xxxxxxxx”), located at 00 Xxxx 00xx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx, at 10:00 a.m., New York time, on a date to be agreed in writing by the Company and Parent, which shall be no later than the tenth (10) Business Day following the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by Law) waiver by the party or parties entitled to the benefits thereof of the conditions set forth

in Article VII (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by Law) waiver of those conditions), or at such other place, time and date as may be agreed in writing between the Company and Parent. The date on which the Closing occurs is referred to in this Agreement as the “Closing Date.”

Section 1.04 Effective Time. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, in connection with and as part of the Closing, the parties shall cause articles of merger relating to the Initial Merger (the “Initial Articles of Merger”) to be delivered to the Director of the Department of Commerce of the State of Hawaii in accordance with the relevant provisions of the HBCA and to the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL, and, as soon as practicable on or after the Closing Date, shall make all other filings required under the HBCA or the DGCL or by the Department of Commerce of the State of Hawaii or the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in connection with the Initial Merger. The Initial Merger shall become effective at the time that the Initial Articles of Merger have been duly filed with the Department of Commerce of the State of Hawaii, or at such later date and time as Parent and the Company shall agree and specify in the Initial Articles of Merger (the time the Initial Merger becomes effective being the “Effective Time”). Immediately following the Effective Time, the parties shall cause a certificate of merger relating to the Subsequent Merger (the “Subsequent Certificate of Merger”) to be delivered to the Director of the Department of Commerce of the State of Hawaii in accordance with the relevant provisions of the HBCA and to the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DLLCA. The Subsequent Merger shall become effective at the time the Subsequent Certificate of Merger has been duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, or at such later date and time as Parent and the Company shall agree and specify in the Subsequent Certificate of Merger.

Section 1.05 Organizational Documents.

(a) The articles of incorporation and the by-laws of Merger Sub I, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the articles of incorporation and the by-laws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended as provided therein or by applicable Law.

(b) The certificate of formation and the limited liability company agreement of Merger Sub II, as in effect immediately prior to the effective time of the Subsequent Merger, shall be the certificate of formation and the limited liability company agreement of the Surviving Company until thereafter amended as provided therein or by applicable Law.

Section 1.06 Surviving Company Manager and Officers. Parent, as sole manager, and the officers of Merger Sub II in office immediately prior to the Subsequent Merger shall be the sole manager and officers of the Surviving Company and shall hold office until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the certificate of formation and limited liability company agreement of the Surviving Company or otherwise as provided by applicable Law.

Section 1.07 Plan of Merger. This Agreement shall constitute a “plan of merger” for purposes of the HBCA, the DGCL and the DLLCA.

Section 1.08 Alternative Structure. The parties agree to reasonably cooperate in the consideration and implementation of alternative structures to effect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as long as any such alternative structure does not (a) impose any material delay on, or condition to, the consummation of the Distribution or the Integrated Mergers, (b) cause any condition set forth in Article VII to not be capable of being satisfied (unless duly waived by the party entitled to the

benefits thereof) or (c) adversely affect in any material respect any of the parties hereto or in any respect the shareholders of Parent or of the Company.

Article II

Effect on Capital Stock; Exchange of Certificates

Section 2.01 Effect of Initial Merger on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Initial Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub I, any holder of shares of Company Common Stock or any holder of shares of Merger Sub I:

(a) Cancellation of Treasury Stock and Parent-Owned Stock. Each share of common stock, no par value, of the Company (“Company Common Stock”) that is owned by the Company as treasury stock, if any, and each share of Company Common Stock, if any, that is owned directly or indirectly by Parent or Merger Sub I or any of their respective Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(b) Conversion of Company Common Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares to be canceled in accordance with Section 2.01(a) and subject to Section 2.01(d)) shall be converted automatically into the right to receive from Parent 0.2413 (the “Exchange Ratio”) fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Parent Common Stock”), of Parent (the “Merger Consideration”).

(c) Effect of Initial Merger on Merger Sub I Stock. Each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub I issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation, and the shares of the Surviving Corporation into which the shares of Merger Sub I common stock are so converted shall be the only shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation that are issued and outstanding immediately after the Effective Time.

(d) No Fractional Shares.

(i) No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.01, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any rights of a holder of Parent Common Stock. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of shares of Company Common Stock converted pursuant to the Initial Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after taking into account all shares of Company Common Stock exchanged by such holder) shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash (without interest) in an amount calculated in accordance with this Section 2.01(d).

(ii) As promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall determine the excess of (A) the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock delivered to the Exchange Agent by Parent pursuant to Section 2.04(a) representing the Merger Consideration over (B) the aggregate number of whole shares

of Parent Common Stock to be distributed to former holders of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.04(b) (such excess being herein called the “Excess Shares”). Following the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall, on behalf of former holders of Company Common Stock, sell the Excess Shares at then-prevailing prices on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), all in accordance with Section 2.01(d)(iii). The parties acknowledge that payment of the cash consideration in lieu of issuing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock was not separately bargained for consideration but merely represents a mechanical rounding off for purposes of avoiding the expense and inconvenience to Parent that would otherwise be caused by the issuance of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock.

(iii) The sale of the Excess Shares by the Exchange Agent shall be executed on the NYSE through one or more member firms of the NYSE and shall be executed in round lots to the extent practicable. The Exchange Agent shall use reasonable efforts to complete the sale of the Excess Shares as promptly following the Effective Time as, in the Exchange Agent’s sole judgment, is practicable consistent with obtaining the best execution of such sales in light of prevailing market conditions. Until the net proceeds of such sale or sales have been distributed to the holders of certificates formerly representing Company Common Stock, the Exchange Agent shall hold such proceeds in trust for former holders of Company Common Stock (the “Common Shares Trust”). The Exchange Agent shall determine the portion of the Common Shares Trust to which each former holder of Company Common Stock is entitled, if any, by multiplying the amount of the aggregate net proceeds composing the Common Shares Trust by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the fractional share interest to which such former holder of Company Common Stock would otherwise be entitled (after taking into account all shares of Company Common Stock held at the Effective Time by such holder) and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of fractional share interests to which all former holders of Company Common Stock would otherwise be entitled.

(e) Adjustments to Merger Consideration. If at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company or Parent (or any other securities convertible therefor or exchangeable thereto) shall occur as a result of any reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split) or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend or stock distribution with a record date during such period, or any similar event, the Merger Consideration and any other similarly dependent items shall be equitably adjusted to provide to Parent, Merger Sub I and the holders of Company Common Stock the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such action.

Section 2.02 Effect of Subsequent Merger. At the effective time of the Subsequent Merger, (a) each share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist and (b) all limited liability company interests of Merger Sub II issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Subsequent Merger shall remain issued and outstanding from and after the effective time of the Subsequent Merger as the limited liability company interests of the Surviving Company.

Section 2.03 Dissenters’ Rights.

(a) Dissenters’ Rights Procedures. Each outstanding share of Company Common Stock the holder of which has perfected his, her or its dissenters’ rights under Part XIV of the HBCA and has not effectively withdrawn or lost such rights as of the Effective Time (the “Dissenting

Shares”) shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive the Merger Consideration hereunder, and the holder thereof shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by the HBCA. The Company shall give Parent prompt notice of receipt by the Company of any notices of intent to demand payment under Part XIV of the HBCA for a holder’s shares of Company Common Stock, of any withdrawals of such notices and of any other instruments received from such holders under Part XIV of the HBCA (any shareholder duly providing such a notice of intent, a “Dissenting Shareholder”), and Parent and the Company shall jointly direct all negotiations and proceedings with any such Dissenting Shareholder. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such notice of intent or demand for payment, or waive any failure to timely deliver a written notice of intent or demand under applicable law or the taking of any other action by such Dissenting Shareholder as may be necessary to perfect dissenters’ rights under the HBCA. Any payments made in respect of Dissenting Shares shall be made by the Surviving Company.

(b) Withdrawal or Loss of Dissenters’ Rights. If any Dissenting Shareholder withdraws or loses (through failure to perfect or otherwise) his right to payment pursuant to Section 2.03(a) at or prior to the Effective Time, such holder’s shares of Company Common Stock shall be converted into a right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement. If such holder withdraws or loses (through failure to perfect or otherwise) his right to such payment after the Effective Time, each share of Company Common Stock of such holder shall be converted on a share by share basis into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as Parent shall determine in its sole discretion.

Section 2.04 Exchange of Shares.

(a) Exchange Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall enter into an agreement with such bank or trust company as may be mutually agreed by Parent and the Company (the “Exchange Agent”), which agreement shall provide that Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent at or prior to the Effective Time, for the benefit of the holders of Company Common Stock, for exchange in accordance with this Section 2.04, certificates representing the Parent Common Stock of which the Merger Consideration consists (or appropriate alternative arrangements shall be made by Parent if uncertificated shares of Parent Common Stock will be issued). At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, in trust for the benefit of the holders of Company Common Stock, a sufficient number of shares of Parent Common Stock to issue the Merger Consideration. Following the Effective Time, Parent agrees to make available to the Exchange Agent, from time to time as needed, cash sufficient to pay any dividends and other distributions pursuant to Section 2.04(c). All book-entries and certificates representing shares of Parent Common Stock (including the amount of any dividends or other distributions payable with respect thereto pursuant to Section 2.04(c) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock to be paid pursuant to Section 2.01(d)) are hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund.”

(b) Exchange Procedures. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, but no later than five (5) business days after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to transmit (or mail in the case of certificated shares of Company Common Stock) to each former holder of Company Common Stock, which at the Effective Time were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.01, (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and that risk of loss and title to Company Common Stock shall pass, only upon delivery of Company Common Stock to the Exchange Agent and which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent and the Company) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Company Common Stock in exchange for whole shares of Parent Common Stock, cash in lieu of any

fractional shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.01(d) and any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.04(c). Upon surrender of certificates formerly representing Company Common Stock for cancellation and exchange to the Exchange Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, the former holder of such Company Common Stock shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock (after taking into account all Company Common Stock surrendered by such holder) to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.01 (which shall be in uncertificated book-entry form unless a physical certificate is requested), payment by check or cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock which such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.01(d) and any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.04(c), and the Company Common Stock so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be registered in the name of a Person other than the Person in whose name the applicable surrendered Company Common Stock is registered, it shall be a condition to the registration thereof that the surrendered Company Common Stock be in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such delivery of the Merger Consideration pay any transfer or other similar Taxes required as a result of such registration in the name of a Person other than the registered holder of such Company Common Stock or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.04(b), each share of Company Common Stock shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration (and any amounts to be paid pursuant to Section 2.01(d) or Section 2.04(c)) upon such surrender. No interest shall be paid or shall accrue on any amount payable pursuant to Section 2.01(d) or Section 2.04(c).

(c) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares. No dividends or other distributions declared or made with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered share of Company Common Stock with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon surrender thereof, and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares shall be paid to any such holder pursuant to Section 2.01(d), until such Company Common Stock has been surrendered in accordance with this Article II. Subject to escheat, Tax or other applicable Law, following surrender of any such Company Common Stock, there shall be paid to the holder of the whole shares of Parent Common Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest, (i) at the time of such surrender, the amount of any cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.01(d) and the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time and a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock.

(d) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. The shares of Parent Common Stock issued in accordance with the terms of this Article II upon the surrender of Company Common Stock and any cash paid pursuant to Section 2.01(d) or Section 2.04(c) shall be deemed to have been issued and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Company Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Company of shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, any shares of Company Common Stock are presented to Parent or the Exchange Agent for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article II.

(e) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the former holders of Company Common Stock for one (1) year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any former holder of Company Common Stock who has not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to Parent for payment of its claim for Merger Consideration, any cash in lieu of fractional shares and any dividends and distributions to which such holder is entitled pursuant to this Article II.

(f) No Liability. None of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II or the Exchange Agent or any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable to any Person in respect of any portion of the Exchange Fund delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(g) Withholding Taxes. Each of Parent, the Surviving Company and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Company Common Stock, Company Stock Options, Company Restricted Shares or Company Restricted Stock Units such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under applicable Tax Law. Amounts so withheld (which may be withheld through withholding of shares of Parent Common Stock) and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of Company Common Stock, Company Stock Options, Company Restricted Shares or Company Restricted Stock Units in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

(h) Lost Certificates. If any certificate formerly representing shares of Company Common Stock has been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable and customary amount as Parent may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such certificate, the Exchange Agent shall deliver and pay, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the Merger Consideration, any cash in lieu of fractional shares and any dividends and distributions on the certificate deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 2.05 Equity Awards.

(a) Adjustment of Equity Awards in Connection with the Merger. Except to the extent otherwise provided in Section 2.05(b):

Each Company Report (i) at the time filed, complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act, the Securities Act or the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 (including the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, collectively the “Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act”), as the case may be, and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to such Company Report and (ii) did not at the time it was filed (or if amended or superseded by a filing or amendment prior to the date of this Agreement, then at the time of such filing or amendment) contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(e) Each Company Benefit Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified and such plan has received a currently effective favorable determination letter or opinion to that effect from the IRS and, to the Knowledge of the Company, there is no reason why any such determination letter should be revoked or not be reissued.

(f) Except for any liabilities that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect, (i) neither the Company nor any Company Subsidiary has any liability for providing health, medical or other welfare benefits after retirement or other termination of employment, other than coverage or benefits required to

(g) None of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the performance by either party of its obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Integrated Mergers (alone or in conjunction with any other event, including any termination of employment on or following the Effective Time) will (i) entitle any Company Personnel to any material compensation or benefit, (ii) accelerate the time of payment or vesting, or trigger any payment or funding, of any material compensation or benefit or trigger any other material obligation under any Company Benefit Plan or Company Benefit Agreement, (iii) to the Knowledge of the Company, impose any restrictions or limitations on the Company’s or any Company Subsidiary’s rights to administer, amend, merge, terminate or receive a reversion of assets from any Company Benefit Plan or Company Benefit Agreement or (iv) result in any payment that could, individually or in combination with any other such payment, not be deductible under Section 280G of the Code. No Person is entitled to receive any additional payment (including any Tax gross-up or other payment) from the Company or any of Company Subsidiaries as a result of the imposition of the excise Taxes required by Section 4999 of the Code or any Taxes required by Section 409A of the Code.

(h) Each Company Benefit Plan and Company Benefit Agreement that is a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” (as defined for purposes of Section 409A(d)(1) of the Code) has been maintained and operated in all material respects in accordance with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. Each Company Stock Option that was not vested as of December 31, 2004 was granted with an exercise price at least equal to the fair market value, as determined under Section 409A of the Code, of a share of Company Common Stock on the applicable date of grant.

Section 4.06 Parent Reports; Financial Statements.

(a) Parent has furnished or filed all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents (including exhibits and other information incorporated therein) required to be furnished or filed by Parent with the SEC since January 1, 2012 (such documents, together with all exhibits, financial statements, including the Company Financial Statements, and schedules thereto and all information incorporated therein by reference, but excluding the Proxy Statement and the Form S-4, being collectively referred to as the “Parent Reports”). Each Parent Report (i) at the time filed, complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act, the Securities Act, or the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act, as the case may be, and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to such Parent Report and (ii) did not at the time it was filed (or if amended or superseded by a filing or amendment prior to the date of this Agreement, then at the time of such filing or amendment) contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Each of the consolidated financial statements of Parent included in the Parent Reports complied at the time it was filed as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto, was prepared in accordance with GAAP (except, in the case of unaudited quarterly financial statements, as permitted by Form 10-Q of the SEC) applied on a

consistent basis during the periods and as of the dates involved (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto) and fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of Parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the periods shown (subject, in the case of unaudited quarterly financial statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments).

(b) Neither Parent nor any Parent Subsidiary has any liabilities of any nature (whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise required by GAAP to be set forth on a consolidated balance sheet of Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries), except liabilities (i) reflected or reserved against in the most recent audited balance sheet (including the notes thereto) of Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries included in the Parent Reports filed prior to the date hereof, (ii) incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice after December 31, 2013, (iii) incurred in connection with the Integrated Mergers or any other transaction or agreement contemplated by this Agreement or (iv) that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had or would not reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

Such internal control over financial reporting is effective in providing reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP in all material respects. Except as has not had, and would not be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Parent Material Adverse Effect, (i) Parent maintains “disclosure controls and procedures” required by Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Parent in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis to the individuals responsible for the preparation of Parent’s filings with the SEC and other public disclosure documents and (ii) Parent has disclosed, based on its most recent evaluation prior to the date of this Agreement, to Parent’s outside auditors and the audit committee of the Parent Board (A) any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that are reasonably likely to adversely affect Parent’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information and (B) any fraud, known to Parent, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in Parent’s internal controls over financial reporting.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall not, and shall cause each Company Subsidiary not to, settle any rate case or other material proceeding that would impact the ratemaking mechanisms currently in effect for the Company or any Company Subsidiary without the prior written consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to the extent that such settlement would result in an outcome for the Company and the Company Subsidiaries that would be materially adverse to the Company or any Company Subsidiary, taking into account the requests made by the Company and the Company Subsidiaries in the HPUC Proceedings and the resolution of similar recent proceedings by the Company and the Company Subsidiaries.

Section 5.03 No Solicitation by the Company; Company Board Recommendation.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not authorize or permit any of its Affiliates and its and their respective officers, directors and employees to, and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause, and shall cause its Affiliates to use reasonable best efforts to cause, its and their respective agents, financial advisors, investment bankers, attorneys, accountants and other representatives

(collectively, “Representatives”) not to, (i) directly or indirectly solicit, initiate, knowingly encourage, induce or knowingly facilitate any Company Takeover Proposal or any inquiry or proposal that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Takeover Proposal or (ii) directly or indirectly participate in any discussions or negotiations with any Person (other than the Company’s Representatives) regarding, or furnish to any Person, any information with respect to, or cooperate in any way with any Person (whether or not such Person is making a Company Takeover Proposal) with respect to any Company Takeover Proposal or any inquiry or proposal that may reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Takeover Proposal. The Company shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and its and their respective officers, directors and employees and its and their respective Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated all existing discussions, negotiations, ongoing solicitation or knowing encouragement with or of any Person conducted heretofore with respect to any Company Takeover Proposal, or any inquiry or proposal that may reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Takeover Proposal, instruct (to the extent it has contractual authority to do so and has not already done so prior to the date of this Agreement and if otherwise, request) the prompt return or destruction of all confidential information previously furnished and immediately terminate all physical and electronic dataroom access previously granted to any such Person or its Representatives. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to obtaining the Company Shareholder Approval, in response to a bona fide, written Company Takeover Proposal that the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside legal counsel and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation) constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Company Proposal, and which Company Takeover Proposal was not solicited by the Company, its Affiliates or Representatives after the date of this Agreement and did not otherwise result from a breach of this Section 5.03(a), the Company, and its Representatives at the request of the Company, may, subject to compliance with Section 5.03(c), (A) furnish information with respect to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to the Person making such Company Takeover Proposal (and its Representatives) (provided that all such information has previously been provided to Parent or is provided to Parent prior to or concurrently with the provision of such information to such Person) pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement not less restrictive of such Person than the Confidentiality Agreement is of Parent and (B) participate in discussions regarding the terms of such Company Takeover Proposal and the negotiation of such terms with, and only with, the Person making such Company Takeover Proposal (and such Person’s Representatives). Without limiting the foregoing, it is agreed that any violation of the restrictions set forth in this Section 5.03(a) by any Representative of the Company or any of its Affiliates shall constitute a breach of this Section 5.03(a) by the Company.

(b) Except as set forth in Section 5.03(c) and Section 5.03(d), neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall (i) (A) withdraw, change, qualify, withhold or modify in any manner adverse to Parent, or propose publicly to withdraw, change, qualify, withhold or modify in any manner adverse to Parent, the approval or recommendation by the Company Board or any such committee thereof with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Integrated Mergers, (B) adopt, approve or recommend, or propose publicly to adopt, approve or recommend, any Company Takeover Proposal, (C) fail to include in the Proxy Statement the recommendation by the Company Board or any committee thereof with respect to this Agreement and the Integrated Mergers or (D) take any formal action or make any recommendation or public statement in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer (other than a recommendation against such offer or a customary “stop, look and listen” communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act, in each case that includes a reaffirmation of the recommendation by the Company Board or any committee thereof with respect to this Agreement and the Integrated Mergers) (any action in this clause (i) being referred to as a “Company Adverse Recommendation Change”) or (ii) authorize, permit, approve or recommend, or propose publicly to authorize, permit, approve or recommend, or allow the Company or any of its Affiliates to execute or enter into, any letter of intent, memorandum of

understanding, agreement in principle, term sheet, agreement or commitment (other than a confidentiality agreement referred to in Section 5.03(a)) constituting or relating to, or that is intended to or would reasonably be expected to lead to, any Company Takeover Proposal, or requiring, or reasonably expected to cause, the Company to abandon, terminate, delay or fail to consummate, or that would otherwise impede, interfere with or be inconsistent with, the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Integrated Mergers, or requiring, or reasonably expected to cause, the Company to fail to comply with this Agreement (a “Company Acquisition Agreement”).

(c) At any time prior to obtaining the Company Shareholder Approval, the Company Board may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(c) if the Company receives a bona fide written Company Takeover Proposal that the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside legal counsel and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation) constitutes a Superior Company Proposal, and which Superior Company Proposal was not solicited by the Company, its Affiliates or Representatives after the date of this Agreement and did not otherwise result from a breach of this Section 5.03; provided, however, that the Company Board may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(c) unless (i) the Company Board has provided prior written notice to Parent (a “Company Notice”) that it is prepared to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(c) in response to a Superior Company Proposal, which notice shall specify the material terms and conditions of any such Superior Company Proposal and attach the most current draft of any Company Acquisition Agreement relating to the transaction that constitutes such Superior Company Proposal and a copy of any financing commitments related thereto, (ii) the Company has negotiated, and caused its Representatives to negotiate, in good faith with Parent during a period of four (4) Business Days after the receipt of such Company Notice, to the extent Parent wishes to negotiate (it being understood and agreed that any amendment to the financial terms or any other material term of a Superior Company Proposal shall require a new Company Notice and a new four (4) Business Day period), to enable Parent to propose changes to this Agreement that would, in the reasonable good faith judgment of the Company Board (after consultation with a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation and outside legal counsel), cause the offer previously constituting a Superior Company Proposal to no longer constitute a Superior Company Proposal, and (iii) at the end of such four (4) Business Day period and taking into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent, the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation and outside legal counsel) that the failure to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(c) as a result of such Superior Company Proposal would be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties to the shareholders of the Company under applicable Law. The Company agrees that, during the four (4) Business Day period prior to terminating this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(c) in response to a Superior Company Proposal, if requested by Parent, the Company and its Representatives shall negotiate in good faith with Parent and its Representatives regarding any revisions to the terms of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement proposed by Parent. In determining whether to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(c), the Company Board shall take into account all written or oral information, opinions or analyses submitted by or on behalf of Parent, and any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent in response to such a Company Notice.

(d) At any time prior to obtaining the Company Shareholder Approval, provided that the Company is not in breach of its obligations under this Section 5.03, the Company Board may effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change (x) as a result of the occurrence of a Company Intervening Event or (y) in response to a Superior Company Proposal, in each case if the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation and outside legal counsel and after taking into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent during the four (4) Business Day period referred to in clause (ii) below) that the

failure to effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change as a result of the occurrence of such Company Intervening Event or in response to such Superior Company Proposal, as the case may be, would be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties to the shareholders of the Company under applicable Law; provided, however, that the Company Board may not effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change under this clause (d) unless (i) the Company Board has provided four (4) Business Days prior written notice to Parent that it is prepared to effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in response to a Company Intervening Event or a Superior Company Proposal, which notice shall, in each case, include summaries of the material facts, circumstances and other information that the Company Board considered in connection with the making of any such determination, together with reasonable documentary support and/or written analysis conducted by or on behalf of the Company Board in reaching such conclusion including, in the case of a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in response to a Superior Company Proposal, the material terms and conditions of any such Superior Company Proposal and the most current draft of any Company Acquisition Agreement and a copy of any financing commitments related thereto, (ii) during such four (4) Business Day period, if requested by Parent, the Company Board negotiates, and causes its Representatives to negotiate, in good faith with Parent and its Representatives regarding any revisions to the terms of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement proposed by Parent and (iii) at the end of such four (4) Business Day period and taking into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent, the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation and outside legal counsel) that the failure to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to this Section 5.03(d) in response to such Company Intervening Event or Superior Company Proposal would be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties to the shareholders of the Company under applicable Law.

(e) In addition to the obligations of the Company set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 5.03, the Company shall promptly advise (and in any event within 48 hours) Parent orally and in writing of (i) any Company Takeover Proposal, the material terms and conditions of any such Company Takeover Proposal (including any changes thereto) and the identity of the Person making any such Company Takeover Proposal, and shall promptly (and in any event within forty-eight (48) hours after receipt) provide copies to Parent of any written proposals, indications of interest and/or draft Company Acquisition Agreements relating to any such Company Takeover Proposal and (ii) any Company Intervening Event or any facts and circumstances that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Intervening Event. The Company shall, in the case of a Company Takeover Proposal, keep Parent informed in all material respects on a current basis of the terms and status (including any change to the terms of, and any material developments with respect to) of any Company Takeover Proposal, including by promptly (and in any event within forty-eight (48) hours after receipt) providing to Parent copies of any additional or revised written proposals, indications of interest and/or draft Company Acquisition Agreements relating to any such Company Takeover Proposal and, in the case of a Company Intervening Event, keep Parent informed in all material respects on a current basis of the facts and circumstances related to such Company Intervening Event (except that this obligation shall not apply to any Company Intervening Event to the extent related solely to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries and not to the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries), together with reasonable documentary support and/or any written analysis related thereto. The Company agrees that it and the Company Subsidiaries will not enter into any agreement with any Person subsequent to the date of this Agreement which prohibits the Company from providing any information to Parent in accordance with this Section 5.03(e).

(f) Nothing contained in this Section 5.03 shall prohibit the Company from (i) complying with Rule 14d-9 and Rule 14e-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act or (ii) making any disclosure to the shareholders of the Company if, in the good faith judgment of the Company Board (after

consultation with outside legal counsel) failure to so disclose would be inconsistent with its obligations under applicable Law; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company or the Company Board or any committee thereof take, or agree or resolve to take, any action prohibited by Section 5.03; provided, further, that any such position or disclosure (other than any “stop, look and listen” communication that includes a reaffirmation of the recommendation by the Company Board or any committee thereof with respect to this Agreement and the Integrated Mergers) shall be deemed a Company Adverse Recommendation Change unless the Company Board expressly and concurrently reaffirms the recommendation by the Company Board or any committee thereof with respect to this Agreement and the Integrated Mergers.

(g) For purposes of this Agreement:

“Company Takeover Proposal” means any inquiry, proposal or offer (whether or not in writing), with respect to any (i) merger, consolidation, share exchange, other business combination, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction involving the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries whose assets, taken together, constitute twenty percent (20%) or more of the Company’s consolidated assets, (ii) sale, lease, contribution or other disposition, directly or indirectly (including by way of merger, consolidation, share exchange, other business combination, partnership, joint venture, sale of capital stock of or other equity interests in any Company Subsidiary or otherwise) of any business or assets of the Company or any Company Subsidiary representing twenty percent (20%) or more of the consolidated revenues, net income or assets of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, (iii) issuance, sale or other disposition, directly or indirectly, to any Person (or the shareholders of any Person) or group of securities (or options, rights or warrants to purchase, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for, such securities) representing twenty percent (20%) or more of the voting power of the Company, (iv) transaction (including any tender offer or exchange offer) in which any Person (or the shareholders of any Person) shall acquire (in the case of a tender offer or exchange offer, if consummated), directly or indirectly, beneficial ownership, or the right to acquire beneficial ownership, or formation of any group which beneficially owns or has the right to acquire beneficial ownership of, twenty percent (20%) or more of any class of equity securities or (v) any combination of the foregoing; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of this Section 5.03, in the event any inquiry, proposal or offer that would otherwise constitute a Company Takeover Proposal solely relates to one or more Bank Subsidiaries, such inquiry, proposal or offer shall be deemed not to be a Company Takeover Proposal so long as Parent grants its prior written consent to such treatment, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld (it being understood that such consent shall in no event be deemed unreasonably withheld if such Company Takeover Proposal could be reasonably expected to prevent, materially delay or impede or make materially less certain the timely consummation of the Integrated Mergers pursuant hereto).

“Superior Company Proposal” means a bona fide, unsolicited written Company Takeover Proposal (provided that for purposes of this definition the applicable percentages in the definition of Company Takeover Proposal shall be “fifty percent (50%)” rather than “twenty percent (20%) or more”) which did not result from, or arise in connection with, any breach of Section 5.03, which the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation and outside legal counsel, and taking into account the legal, financial, regulatory and other aspects of such Company Takeover Proposal (including the availability of financing), the conditionality of and contingencies related to such proposal, the expected timing and risk of completion, the identity of the Person making such proposal and such other factors that are deemed relevant by the Company Board, is (i) reasonably capable of being completed on the terms

proposed and (ii) more favorable to the holders of Company Common Stock than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (after taking into account any revised proposal by Parent to amend the terms of this Agreement which is committed to in writing (including pursuant to Section 5.03(c)). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Company Takeover Proposal (A) solely with respect to one or more Bank Subsidiaries or (B) that contemplates the approval thereof by the Company’s shareholders by a vote that is less than the vote contemplated by Section 3.04 shall, in either case, constitute a Superior Company Proposal.

“Company Intervening Event” means any fact, circumstance, effect, change, event or development that affects or would be reasonably likely to affect (i) the business, financial condition or continuing results of operations of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole or (ii) the shareholders of the Company (including the benefits of the Integrated Mergers to the shareholders of the Company), in either case that (x) is material, (y) does not involve or relate to a Company Takeover Proposal or the existence thereof and (z) is not known or reasonably foreseeable to the Company Board as of the date hereof and which becomes known prior to receipt of the Company Shareholder Approval; provided that no fact, circumstance, effect, change, event or development that has had or would reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on the business, financial condition or continuing results of operations of, or the market price of the securities (including the Parent Common Stock) of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries shall constitute a “Company Intervening Event” unless such fact, circumstance, effect, change, event or development has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.04 Bank Spin-Off Agreements. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to consummate the Bank Spin-Off in accordance with Section 1.01 and the Bank Spin-Off Agreements. As promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall have prepared final forms of the Bank Spin-Off Agreements, including:

(a) a separation agreement to effect the Distribution and providing for, among other things, (i) the termination of intercompany agreements, (ii) the settlement of intercompany accounts, (iii) the replacement or termination of guarantees, (iv) maintaining confidentiality of information, (v) mutual releases of pre-Distribution claims, (vi) resignation of Company employees as officers and directors from companies engaged in the businesses of the Bank Subsidiaries and of employees in the Bank Subsidiaries as officers and directors of the Company and companies engaged in the utility businesses of the Company, (vii) full indemnification of the Company and Parent by ASB Hawaii for liabilities relating to the Bank Subsidiaries (for the avoidance of doubt, including all liabilities relating to the Bank Benefit Plans and Bank Benefit Agreements), other than Tax liabilities of the Company or the Bank Subsidiaries resulting from the application of section 355(e) of the Code (or corresponding provisions of the laws of any other jurisdictions) to the Bank Spin-Off or any Tax liabilities of the Company or the Bank Subsidiaries resulting from the Section 336(e) Election, which Tax liabilities shall be borne, in each case except as described in clause (viii) below, after the Closing solely by the Surviving Company and/or Parent, (viii) full indemnification of the Company and Parent by ASB Hawaii if (x) the actual Tax liability of the Company and the Bank Subsidiaries (taking into account the Section 336(e) Election with respect to the Bank Spin-Off), exceeds (such excess, the “Excess Tax Liability”) (y) the hypothetical Tax liability of the Company and the Bank Subsidiaries that would have resulted if no such election were made with respect to the Bank Spin-Off and assuming such hypothetical Tax liability was calculated based on an aggregate tax basis of the Company in its ASB Hawaii stock of $405.8 million,

provided, however, that ASB Hawaii shall have no such indemnification obligation until the Excess Tax Liability exceeds $10,000,000 and then only to the extent such Excess Tax Liability exceeds $10,000,000, (ix) full indemnification of ASB Hawaii by the Company for liabilities relating to the non-Bank business of the Company, (x) the use by the Company and the Bank Subsidiaries of their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain any regulatory approvals, consents, permits or other authorizations required to be obtained in connection with the Distribution and (xi) such other customary covenants, agreements, obligations, representations and warranties in connection with a spin-off similar to the Distribution; and

(b) a registration statement on Form 10/S-4 or a registration statement on Form S-1/S-4, as applicable (either, and together with any amendments, supplements, prospectus or information statements thereto, the “Spin-Off Registration Statement”) to register the ASB Hawaii shares to be distributed in the Distribution.

The Company shall, and shall cause the Bank Subsidiaries to, timely provide drafts of the Bank Spin-Off Agreements and Spin-Off Registration Statement to Parent for review and comment, and shall (and shall cause their respective Representatives to) negotiate in good faith with Parent with respect to the terms of the Bank Spin-Off Agreements, and shall accept all reasonable comments of Parent and its Representatives with respect thereto. The Bank Spin-Off Agreements and the Spin-Off Registration Statement shall each be subject to the prior approval of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Following the execution of the Bank Spin-Off Agreements, the Company shall not, nor shall the Company permit the Bank Subsidiaries to, alter, amend or otherwise revise the Bank Spin-Off Agreements, or waive any material term thereof or any material condition to the obligations thereunder, or amend, withdraw or abandon the Spin-Off Registration Statement without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

The Company shall, through the Company Board, recommend to its shareholders that they give the Company Shareholder Approval and shall include such recommendation in the Proxy Statement, except to the extent that the Company Board has made a Company Adverse Recommendation Change as permitted by Section 5.03(d). The Company agrees that its obligations pursuant to this Section 6.01 (other than its obligations to recommend to its shareholders that they give the Company Shareholder Approval and to include such recommendation in the Proxy Statement, but only to the extent that the Company Board has made a Company Adverse Recommendation Change as permitted by Section 5.03(d)) shall not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to the Company of any Company Takeover Proposal or by the making of any Company Adverse Recommendation Change by the Company Board.

(h) If the Company Shareholder Approval shall not have been obtained at the Company Shareholder Meeting or at an adjournment or postponement thereof, then the parties shall promptly confer in good faith regarding, and use reasonable best efforts to promptly develop, a strategy to obtain such Company Shareholder Approval, which may include negotiating appropriate changes to this Agreement or a restructuring of the transactions contemplated hereby (it being understood that Parent shall in no circumstances be obligated to alter or change the amount or kind of the Merger Consideration),

and the Company shall resubmit the transaction to the Company’s shareholders for approval, with the timing and such resubmission to be determined at the request of Parent and otherwise subject to and in accordance with this Section 6.01.

(i) To the extent applicable, the Company shall have the same obligations with respect to the Spin-Off Registration Statement as the Company has with respect to the Form S-4.

Section 6.02 Access to Information; Confidentiality. Subject to applicable Law and the Confidentiality Agreement, each of Parent and the Company shall, and shall cause each of its respective Subsidiaries to, afford to the other party and to the Representatives of such other party reasonable access, upon reasonable advance notice, during the period from the date of this Agreement to the earlier of the Effective Time or termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(a), to all their respective properties, books, contracts, commitments, personnel and records and, during such period, each of Parent and the Company shall, and shall cause each of its respective Subsidiaries to, make available promptly to the other party (a) to the extent not publicly available, a copy of each report, schedule, registration statement and other document filed by it during such period pursuant to the requirements of securities laws or filed with or sent to the SEC, the FERC, any state utilities commission or any other federal or state regulatory agency or commission and (b) all other information concerning its business, properties and personnel as such other party may reasonably request; provided, however, that either party may withhold any document or information that is subject to the terms of a confidentiality agreement with a third party (provided that the withholding party shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the required consent of such third party to such access or disclosure) or subject to any attorney-client privilege (provided that the withholding party shall use its reasonable best efforts to allow for such access or disclosure (or as much of it as possible) in a manner that does not result in a loss of attorney-client privilege) or that cannot be provided by law due to its commercial sensitivity. If any material is withheld by such party pursuant to one or more of the provisos to the preceding sentence, such party shall inform the other party as to the general nature of what is being withheld to the extent that doing so would not undermine the protection of the relevant proviso and, if reasonably feasible, provide a redacted version of such requested material which version does not contain the otherwise sensitive information. All information exchanged pursuant to this Section 6.02 shall be subject to the non-disclosure agreement dated as of August 1, 2014, between Parent and the Company (the “Confidentiality Agreement”). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not have any obligation to share with Parent or its representatives any confidential supervisory communications or information involving bank regulatory authorities not allowed to be shared pursuant to applicable Law.

(v) respond as promptly as practicable under the circumstances to any inquiries received from any Governmental Entity or any other authority enforcing applicable Antitrust Laws for additional information or documentary material in connection with antitrust, competition or similar matters (including a “second request” under the HSR Act), and not extend any waiting period under the HSR Act or enter into any agreement with any such Governmental Entity or other authorities not to consummate the Integrated Mergers, except with the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.03, and other than in connection with any bank regulatory matters related to the Distribution, the Company and Parent shall have joint responsibility for scheduling and conducting any meeting with any Governmental Entity, coordinating and making any applications and filings with, and resolving any investigation or other inquiry of, any agency or other Governmental Entity, obtaining the Company Required Statutory Approvals, Required Consents, Consents, Permits and other approvals and confirmations from any Governmental Entity necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the Integrated Mergers.

Agreement or the Distribution or the Integrated Mergers. Subject to Section 5.02 with respect to the HPUC Proceedings, the Company shall consult with Parent with respect to, and allow Parent to participate in, the defense or settlement of any such action, suit, claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding, and no settlement thereof shall be agreed to without Parent’s prior written consent. Parent shall consult with the Company with respect to the defense or settlement of any such action, suit, claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding, and shall consult with the Company prior to agreeing to any settlement thereof.

(f) Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to (i) require Parent or any Parent Subsidiary or (ii) permit the Company or any Company Subsidiary without the prior written consent of Parent, to undertake any efforts or to take any action (including accepting or agreeing to any terms, conditions, liabilities, obligations, commitments or sanctions relating to the operation of the business of Parent, any Parent Subsidiary, the Company, any Company Subsidiary or otherwise or proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, licensing or disposition of assets or businesses of Parent or the Company or their respective Subsidiaries) if the taking of such efforts or action, individually or in the aggregate, has resulted or would reasonably be expected to result in a Parent Material Adverse Effect (measured on a scale relative to a company the size of the Company) or a Company Material Adverse Effect, in each case, giving effect to the Distribution for purposes of determining the size of the Company and not giving effect to the exclusions set forth in clauses (iv) or (vii) of the definition of “Material Adverse Effect” (any of the foregoing, unless specifically waived in writing by Parent at its discretion, a “Burdensome Condition”).

The Company and Parent agree that the initial press release to be issued with respect to the Integrated Mergers shall be in the form agreed to by the parties prior to the date hereof.

Section 6.11 Certain Tax Matters.

(a) For U.S. federal income Tax purposes, (i) the parties intend that (x) the Integrated Mergers shall together be treated as a single integrated transaction that qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, (y) the Company and Parent shall each be a party to such reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(b) of the Code and (z) the Bank Spin-Off shall be tax-free to the Company’s shareholders under Section 355(a) of the Code (the “Intended Tax Treatment”) and (ii) this Agreement is intended to be, and is hereby adopted as, a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Sections 354, 361 and 368 of the Code and within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-2(g).

(b) Each of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub I and Merger Sub II shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Integrated Mergers to qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment, including by not taking any action that such party knows could reasonably be expected to prevent such qualification. Each of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub I and Merger Sub II shall report the Integrated Mergers in a manner consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment.

(c) Each of the Company, on the one hand, and Parent, Merger Sub I and Merger Sub II, on the other hand, shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Tax opinion and IRS ruling referred to in Section 7.02(d) and the Tax opinion referred to in Section 7.03(e), including by executing letters of representation that are customary for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that are in form and substance acceptable to Skadden and Wachtell, as appropriate. Each of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub I and Merger Sub II shall use its reasonable best efforts not to take or cause to be taken any action that would cause to be untrue (or fail to take or cause not to be taken any action which inaction would cause to be untrue) any of the representations and covenants made to Skadden or Wachtell in furtherance of such Tax opinions.

(d) The Company shall cause an election to be made pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 336(e) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (and any corresponding elections under state, local or foreign Tax law) (a “Section 336(e) Election”) with respect to the Bank Spin-Off for ASB Hawaii, ASB and any of their respective Subsidiaries for which a Section 336(e) Election may be made. In order to effect the Section 336(e) Election pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, on or prior to the date of the Bank Spin-Off, the Company shall, and shall cause ASB Hawaii to, enter into a written, binding agreement to make the Section 336(e) Election, as required by Treasury Regulations Sections 1.336-2(h)(1)(i) and 1.336-2(h)(4), and the Company shall take such other actions, including after the Closing Date, as may be required to properly make a Section 336(e) Election. Prior to the Closing Date, each party hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Bank Spin-Off to be eligible for a valid Section 336(e) Election, and shall not take any action reasonably likely to cause the Bank Spin-Off not to so qualify. As promptly as practicable (and in any event within

three (3) Business Days) following the due date (including extensions) of the consolidated U.S. federal income tax return of the Company for the taxable year that includes the Bank Spin-Off, Parent or the Company shall provide (or cause to be provided) to ASB Hawaii written confirmation or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to ASB Hawaii that the Section 336(e) Election has validly and timely been made.

(e) Prior to the Bank Spin-Off, the Company shall, and shall cause ASB Hawaii to, enter into a tax matters agreement, as part of the Bank Spin-Off Agreements, providing for customary terms including the following: (i) within sixty (60) days after the Bank Spin-Off, the Company shall provide ASB Hawaii with a proposed determination of the “Aggregate Deemed Asset Disposition Price” (as defined under applicable Treasury Regulations) and the allocation of such Aggregate Deemed Asset Disposition Price among the disposition date assets, each in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 336(e) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Section 336(e) Allocation Statement”); (ii) within sixty (60) days after ASB Hawaii’s receipt of the Section 336(e) Allocation Statement, ASB Hawaii may object, in good faith, to the Section 336(e) Allocation Statement by giving written notice to the Company setting forth the basis for ASB Hawaii’s dispute (the “ASB Hawaii Allocation Objection”); (iii) if ASB Hawaii does not object to all or any portion of the Section 336(e) Allocation Statement within such sixty (60) day period, then ASB Hawaii shall be deemed to have conclusively agreed with and shall be bound by the Section 336(e) Allocation Statement; (iv) if ASB Hawaii sends the ASB Hawaii Allocation Objection on a timely basis, then ASB Hawaii and the Company shall confer in good faith in an attempt to resolve the differences; (v) if, after ten (10) Business Days, ASB Hawaii and the Company cannot agree, then ASB Hawaii and the Company shall attempt to agree upon a mutually satisfactory nationally recognized accounting firm (the “Firm”) for the resolution of such differences; provided, that if the parties cannot agree on a mutually satisfactory nationally recognized accounting firm, then each of ASB Hawaii and the Company shall select a nationally recognized accounting firm and the two firms so selected shall select the Firm; (vi) the Firm shall review the Section 336(e) Allocation Statement and the ASB Hawaii Allocation Objection (as well as any supporting documents submitted to the Firm by the Company or ASB Hawaii which are reasonably related to the Section 336(e) Allocation Statement or the ASB Hawaii Allocation Objection, respectively) and make a final written determination of the Aggregate Deemed Asset Disposition Price and the allocation of such Aggregate Deemed Asset Disposition Price among the disposition date assets, each in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 336(e) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, which determination shall be conclusive and binding on ASB Hawaii and the Company; (vii) the determination by the Firm shall be made as promptly as possible but not later than twenty (20) Business Days after the Firm’s engagement (unless otherwise agreed to by the Firm, ASB Hawaii and the Company); and (viii) the Company and ASB Hawaii will each bear fifty percent (50%) of the fees and expenses of the Firm.

Section 6.12 Indemnification, Exculpation and Insurance.

(a) Each of Parent and the Company agrees that all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time now existing in favor of the current or former directors or officers of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries as provided in their respective certificates of incorporation or bylaws (or comparable organizational documents), in each case as in effect on the date of this Agreement, shall be continued or assumed by Parent or the Surviving Company following the Integrated Mergers, without further action, and shall survive the Integrated Mergers and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms for a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time.

(b) For a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to procure the provision of officers’ and directors’ liability insurance in respect of

acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time covering each Person currently covered by the Company’s or any of the Company Subsidiaries’ officers’ and directors’ liability insurance policy on terms with respect to coverage and in amounts that are at least as favorable as those of the applicable policy in effect on the date of this Agreement; provided that if the aggregate annual premium for such insurance exceeds 300% of the current annual premium for such insurance, then Parent shall provide or cause to be provided a policy for the applicable individuals with the best coverage as is then available at a cost up to but not exceeding 300% of such current aggregate annual premium. In lieu of such insurance, prior to the Closing Date, Parent may, following consultation with the Company, purchase a “tail” directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy and fiduciary liability insurance policy for the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and their current and former directors and officers who are currently covered by the directors’ and officers’ and fiduciary liability insurance coverage maintained by the Company or any Company Subsidiary on terms with respect to coverage and in amounts that are at least as favorable as those of the applicable policy in effect on the date of this Agreement and subject to the proviso of the immediately preceding sentence, in which event Parent shall cease to have any obligations under the immediately preceding sentence.

(c) The provisions of this Section 6.12 (i) shall survive consummation of the Integrated Mergers, (ii) are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each indemnified or insured party, his or her heirs and his or her representatives and (iii) are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such person may have by contract or otherwise.

Section 6.13 Employee Matters.

(a) During the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the two-year anniversary of the Effective Time (the “Continuation Period”), Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Company to, provide each Company Employee who is not covered by a Company Union Contract or party to an individual change in control severance agreement with the Company and who remains a Company Employee with (i) a base salary or wage rate that is no less favorable than that provided to the Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) aggregate incentive compensation opportunities that are substantially comparable, in the aggregate, to those provided to the Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time and (iii) employee benefits that are substantially comparable, in the aggregate, to those provided to the Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time. Further, during the Continuation Period, Parent and the Surviving Company shall not implement involuntary workforce reductions of Company Employees (provided that this sentence shall not apply in respect of any Company Employee who is party to an individual change in control severance agreement with the Company).

(b) With respect to each Company Employee who is covered by a Company Union Contract, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Company to, continue to honor the Company Union Contracts, in each case as in effect at the Effective Time, in accordance with their terms (it being understood that this sentence shall not be construed to limit the ability of Parent or the Surviving Company to amend or terminate any such Company Union Contract, to the extent permitted by the terms of the applicable contract and applicable Law). The provisions of this Section 6.13 shall be subject to any applicable provisions of the Company Union Contracts and applicable Law in respect of such Company Employee, to the extent the provisions of this Section 6.13 are inconsistent with or otherwise in conflict with the provisions of any such Company Union Contract or applicable Law.

(c) At the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Company to, assume and honor in accordance with their terms all of the Company’s and all of the Company

Subsidiaries’ employment, severance, retention, termination and change in control plans, policies, programs, agreements and arrangements (including any change in control severance agreement or other arrangement between the Company and any Company Employee) maintained by the Company or any Company Subsidiary, in each case, as in effect at the Effective Time, including with respect to any payments, benefits or rights arising as a result of the Integrated Mergers (either alone or in combination with any other event), it being understood that this sentence shall not be construed to limit the ability of Parent or the Surviving Company to amend or terminate any such plans, policies, programs, agreements, or arrangements, to the extent permitted by the terms of the applicable plan, policy, program, agreement or arrangement. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of any Company Benefit Plan or Company Benefit Agreement containing a definition of “change in control,” “change of control” or similar term, the Closing shall be deemed to constitute a “change in control”, “change of control” or such similar term.

(d) With respect to all employee benefit plans of Parent, the Surviving Company or any of their Subsidiaries, including any “employee benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) (including any vacation, paid time-off and severance plans), each Company Employee’s service with the Company or any Company Subsidiary (as well as service with any predecessor employer of the Company or any such Company Subsidiary, to the extent service with the predecessor employer was recognized by the Company or such Company Subsidiary and is accurately reflected within a Company Employee’s records) shall be treated as service with Parent, the Surviving Company or any of their Subsidiaries for all purposes, including determining eligibility to participate, level of benefits, vesting and benefit accruals, except (i) to the extent that such service was not recognized under the corresponding Company Benefit Plan immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) for purposes of any defined benefit retirement plan, any retiree welfare benefit plan, any grandfathered or frozen plan or any plan under which similarly situated employees of Parent and its Subsidiaries do not receive credit for prior service or (iii) to the extent that such recognition would result in any duplication of benefits for the same period of service.

(e) Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Company to, use commercially reasonable efforts to waive, or cause to be waived, any pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, actively at work requirements and waiting periods under any welfare benefit plan maintained by Parent, the Surviving Company or any of their Subsidiaries in which Company Employees (and their eligible dependents) will be eligible to participate from and after the Effective Time, except to the extent that such pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, actively-at-work requirements and waiting periods would not have been satisfied or waived under the corresponding Company Benefit Plan immediately prior to the Effective Time. Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Company to, use commercially reasonable efforts to recognize the dollar amount of all co-payments, deductibles and similar expenses incurred by each Company Employee (and his or her eligible dependents) during the calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs for purposes of satisfying such year’s deductible and co-payment limitations under the relevant welfare benefit plans in which they will be eligible to participate from and after the Effective Time. Company Employees must provide acceptable evidence to each Parent benefit plan administrator under which such adjustments or credits are to be made.

(f) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 6.13 are solely for the benefit of the parties to this Agreement, and no provision of this Section 6.13 is intended to, or shall, constitute the establishment or adoption of or an amendment to any employee benefit plan for purposes of ERISA or otherwise and no Company Personnel or any other individual associated therewith shall be regarded for any purpose as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement or have the right to enforce the provisions hereof including in respect of continued

employment (or resumed employment). Nothing contained herein shall alter the at-will employment relationship of any Company Employee.

Section 6.14 Dividend Coordination. Parent and the Company shall coordinate with each other to designate the same record and payment dates for Parent’s and the Company’s respective quarterly dividends declared in any calendar quarter in which the Closing Date might reasonably be expected to occur. If the Closing Date occurs after the record date for a regular quarterly cash dividend payable to holders of the Company Common Stock and prior to the payment date of such dividend (the “Final Quarterly Dividend”), then Parent or the Surviving Company will cause to be paid, out of the Exchange Fund, the Final Quarterly Dividend on behalf of the Company following the Closing on the scheduled payment date for such dividend.
