(b) Leased Real Estate. A good and valid leasehold estate in the real estate described in attached Schedule B and created by certain lease agreement(s) (individually the “Third Party Lease” and collectively the “Third Party Leases”) relating to the referenced Offices (the "Leased Real Estate"), specifically identified by street address, legal description and/or tax parcel numbers in Schedule B attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference;

The Deposit Account Loans, Other Loans, and Overdraft Loans sold and assigned to BUYER hereunder are tentatively listed in Schedule G attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference and will be identified in a revised Schedule G (“Revised Schedule G”) as of the Closing Date (hereinafter referred to individually and collectively as the "Purchased Loans") and only the loans listed on Schedule G shall be acquired by BUYER.

(a) Assets. Receive and accept all of the Assets assigned, transferred, conveyed and delivered to BUYER by SELLER pursuant to this Agreement.

(b) Deposit Liabilities. Assume and thereafter discharge, pay in full and timely perform all of VISION's obligations and duties relating to the "Deposit Liabilities" (as hereinafter defined). The term "Deposit Liabilities" is defined herein as all of VISION's obligations, duties and liabilities of every type and character relating to all of VISION’s deposit accounts, other than deposit accounts securing any loan of SELLER which is not an Purchased Loan, for which BUYER assumes no liability, which, as reflected on the books of SELLER as of the close of business on the Closing Date, are attributable to the Offices. The deposit accounts referred to in the immediately preceding sentence (hereinafter the "Deposit Accounts") include, without limitation, passbook, statement savings, checking, Money Market, and NOW accounts, Individual Retirement Accounts for which SELLER has not received, on or before the Closing Date, the written advice from the account holder of such account holder's objection or failure to accept BUYER as successor custodian ("IRA's") and certificates of deposit and are listed on Schedule H hereto. The "obligations, duties and liabilities" referred to in the immediately preceding sentence include, without limitation, the obligation to pay and otherwise process all Deposit Accounts in accordance with applicable law and their respective contractual terms and the duty to supply all applicable reporting forms for periods following the Closing Date including, without limitation, IRS Form 1099 reports relating to the Deposit Accounts to be filed and provided after the Closing Date relating to interest accrued after the Closing Date. With regard to each XXX included within the Deposit Accounts, BUYER shall also assume the appropriate plan pertaining thereto and the trustee or custodial arrangement in connection therewith.

(c) Liabilities Under Leases/Safe Deposit Business. Assume and thereafter fully and timely perform and discharge, in accordance with their respective terms, all of the liabilities and obligations of VISION arising after the Closing Date with respect to:

(i)

all leases listed on Schedules B and E to this Agreement (including safe deposit leases if any) and sold, assigned or transferred to BUYER by SELLER pursuant to this Agreement;

(ii)

the safe deposit business of the Offices including, but not limited to, the maintenance of all necessary facilities for the use of safe deposit boxes by the renters thereof during the periods for which such persons have paid rent therefore in advance to VISION, subject to the agreed allocation of such rents, which allocation shall be satisfied in full by SELLER paying to BUYER, in the manner specified in Section 6.4 hereof, the amount of rental payment received by VISION for each such safe deposit box attributable to and prorated to reflect the period from and after the Closing Date, subject to the provisions of the applicable leases or other agreements relating to such boxes; and

(iii)

all safekeeping items and agreements listed on Schedule E to this Agreement and delivered to BUYER by SELLER pursuant to this Agreement, including, but not limited to, all applicable safekeeping agreements, memoranda, or receipts so delivered to BUYER by SELLER hereunder.

(d) Other Liabilities. Fully and timely perform and discharge, in accordance with their respective terms, all of the liabilities and obligations of VISION arising under the Assumed Contracts, the Third Party Leases for the Leased Real Estate, obligations pertaining to the Purchased Loans, and all additional liabilities, obligations and deferred expenses of VISION which are reflected on the books of SELLER as being attributable to an Office as of the close of business on the Closing Date but only to the extent attributable to the Assets sold, assigned or transferred to BUYER by SELLER pursuant to this Agreement. With respect to those Assumed Contracts specifically indentified on Schedule D hereto with an “*”, BUYER shall be responsible for all obligations and liabilities under such Assumed Contracts except for any applicable termination fee. With respect to those Assumed Contracts specifically indentified on Schedule D hereto with a “**”, such Assumed Contracts are contracts to which PARK is a party and with respect to which BUYER will only assume the obligation to reimburse PARK for the costs incurred by PARK under such Assumed Contract which would have properly been allocated to VISION had the Acquisition not taken place. SELLER and BUYER will cooperate in good faith so that any termination fees resulting from the termination of any Assumed Contracts are as low as possible. In addition, BUYER and SELLER will cooperate in good faith to terminate that portion of the “**” Assumed Contracts that applies to the Offices no later than the date of BUYER’s conversion of such items. No additional material liabilities and obligations of SELLER incurred subsequent to the date of this Agreement shall be assumed by BUYER unless the prior written consent of BUYER has been obtained prior to the incursion of the material liability or obligation by SELLER. BUYER agrees that it will be solely responsible for any and all conversion costs resulting from the conversion of the Offices to a new system.

1.4 Purchase Price and Payment of Funds. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, at the Closing:

(a) Purchase Price. The Purchase Price (the “Purchase Price”) shall be $27,912,850. The Purchase Price shall be paid in accordance with this Agreement and the Final Closing Statement set forth on Schedule Q hereto.

(b) Reimbursement and Proration of Certain Expenses. All other expenses with respect to the Assets (i) due and payable by the BUYER at times after the Closing Date for periods (or portions thereof) prior to the close of business on the Closing Date or (ii) paid by the SELLER prior to the close of business on the Closing Date for periods (or portions thereof) following the Closing Date, including the prepaid expenses described in Section 1.2(f) hereof and deferred expenses described in Section 1.3(d) hereof, including without limitation, all real property taxes, personal property taxes and similar ad valorem obligations levied on SELLER with respect to the Assets (“Prorated Taxes”) (whether such taxes are payable to a taxing authority, a landlord or other third party, utility payments, payments due on leases assigned, payments due on assigned service and maintenance contracts and similar expenses relating to the Offices shall be prorated between SELLER and BUYER as of the close of business on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date (so that, for periods including but not ending on the Closing Date, such proration will be based upon the number of calendar days in the portion of such period ending on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, and the number of calendar days in the portion of such period beginning on the Closing Date) , provided, however, that all real estate taxes and assessments, to the extent payable by SELLER and/or BUYER, shall be prorated at the Closing on the basis of the most recently certified real estate taxes and assessments, and all utility payments and lease payments shall be prorated on the basis of the best information available at Closing. Any security deposits relating to the Leased Real Estate shall be credited to the SELLER at Closing. With respect to premiums paid to the FDIC for deposit insurance for the Deposit Liabilities, it shall be assumed that all the Deposit Liabilities are insured under the Bank Insurance Fund; the proration of FDIC insurance premiums will be based on the amount of the Deposit Liabilities as of the close of business on the Closing Date and the number of days during any period for which SELLER has prepaid premiums to the FDIC but during which BUYER has held or will hold the Deposit Liabilities. For prorations, if any, which cannot be reasonably calculated as of the Closing, a post-closing adjustment shall be made in the manner specified in Section 6.4 hereof.

(c) Expenses Relating to Real Property and other Assets. The costs, fees and expenses of all title commitments, title guaranties, title examinations and title policies (except as otherwise herein expressly provided) relating to the procurement of the Title Commitments related to the Owned Real Estate and the Leased Real Estate referred to in Sections 2.1(b) and 5.2(g) herein, shall be allocated to, and shall be borne, solely and exclusively by SELLER. The costs, fees and expenses relating to any title policy endorsements for extended coverage for all title insurance policies (net of the costs of all title commitments, guaranties,, examinations and the base title policies), recording costs and other similar costs, fees and expenses, if any, relating to the sale and transfer of the Owned Real Estate or the transfer of SELLER's interest in the Leased Real Estate including, but not limited to, any conveyance fees, recording costs and other similar fees and expenses relating to the sale and transfer of any other Assets, shall be allocated to, and shall be borne, solely and exclusively, by BUYER. To the extent BUYER requests SELLER or its attorneys to seek certain title endorsements or removal of exceptions noted on the title commitments, except for exceptions that are Permitted Exceptions, BUYER shall reimburse SELLER at Closing for its reasonable attorney fees incurred to obtain such endorsements or exception related thereto. In no event shall SELLER be required to undertake any negotiations with the title insurance companies for any matters that relate to the scope of title insurance coverage or the Permitted Exceptions. SELLER shall reimburse BUYER at the Closing for all the costs, fees and expenses allocated to SELLER pursuant to this Section 1.4(c) but paid by BUYER, and BUYER shall reimburse SELLER at the Closing for all of the costs, fees and expenses allocated to BUYER pursuant to this Section 1.4(c) but paid by SELLER in the manner specified in Section 6.4 herein. If this transaction does not close because of a breach of this Agreement, the breaching party shall be responsible for and shall, as appropriate, reimburse the other party for its expenses as set forth herein. If this transaction does not close for any other reason, each party shall reimburse the other party upon termination of this Agreement for such party's share of expenses so that each party shall pay the same share of expenses as it would have paid at Closing. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, all real estate transfer taxes, conveyances fees, sales, use and any other taxes resulting from or payable in connection with the sale of the Assets pursuant to this Agreement, and which taxes relates to the value of transferred Assets, shall be borne 50% by BUYER and 50% by SELLER. BUYER shall timely file or cause to be filed all necessary documents (including all tax returns) with respect to such taxes.

(d) Reimbursement for Training and Transition Costs. BUYER shall reimburse SELLER for its costs incurred prior to the Closing in connection with the training of those employees of SELLER that will be employed by BUYER and also for the costs incurred by SELLER in connection with those employees of SELLER that are assigned to assist in the transition work after the Closing including the salary and other appropriate costs of the applicable SELLER employees assisting with the transition; provided, however, that the amount of such reimbursement shall not exceed $30,000 per month. SELLER will provide BUYER with monthly invoices detailing such costs and BUYER will reimburse SELLER for such amounts within fifteen (15) calendar days of its receipt of SELLER’s invoices.

(a) Operation of the Offices. SELLER shall continue to operate the Assets in a manner substantially equivalent to that manner and system of operation employed immediately prior to the date of this Agreement and will use all reasonable efforts to preserve intact VISION’s business operations and relationships with all customers and employees. Notwithstanding the foregoing and except as may be required to obtain the required authorizations referred to in Section 2.3 of this Agreement, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, and except as may be otherwise required by a regulatory authority, SELLER shall not, without the prior consent of BUYER, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld:

(i)

cause any Office to engage or participate in any material transaction or incur or sustain any obligation which, in the aggregate, is material to its business, condition or operations except in the ordinary course of business;

(ii)

transfer to SELLER's other operations any material amount of Assets, except for (a) supplies, if any, which have unique function in the business of SELLER and its affiliates and ordinarily would not be useful to BUYER, (b) cash and other normal intrabank transfers which may be transferred in the ordinary course of business in accordance with normal banking practices and (c) signs, or those parts thereof, bearing the SELLER or affiliate name and/or logo or that of a SELLER contractor;

(iii)

transfer to SELLER's other operations any deposits other than deposits securing loans made by SELLER which are not Purchased Loans and deposits owned in whole or in part by employees of SELLER or its affiliates who are not Transferred Employees as defined in Section 4.1 of this Agreement, except in the ordinary course of business at the unsolicited request of depositors or cause any of SELLER's other operations to transfer to VISION any deposits, except in the ordinary course of business at the unsolicited request of depositors; provided, however, that SELLER shall be permitted to make such transfers of any deposits to or from VISION as are in the normal course of business and do not violate the foregoing restrictions;

(iv)

invest in any Fixed Assets on behalf of VISION, except for commitments made on or before the date of this Agreement which are disclosed to BUYER on Schedule C of this Agreement and for replacements of furniture, furnishings and equipment and normal maintenance and refurbishing purchased or made in the ordinary course of VISION’s business;

(v)

enter into or amend any continuing contract (other than Deposit Liabilities, Purchased Loans, and Safe Deposit agreements) including Purchased Loans, relating to VISION, which cannot be terminated without cause and without payment of any amounts as a penalty, bonus, premium or other compensation for termination, or which is not made in the ordinary course of Office business;

(vi)

hire (other than to replace a departing employee and/or to bring the number of employees at VISION to normal staffing levels), transfer, reassign or terminate any employee of VISION, increase the compensation of any employee of VISION, or promote any of the employees of VISION except pursuant to and consistent with customary SELLER procedures and policies;

(vii)

make any material change to its customary policies for setting rates on deposits offered by VISION;

(viii)

not waive or modify any Purchased Loans; or

(ix)

maintain the Owned Real Estate, the Leased Real Estate and the Fixed Assets in substantially the same repair, working order and condition as they are on the date hereof (reasonable wear and tear excepted).

(b) Title Commitments for Real Estate. SELLER shall deliver to BUYER, at SELLER' s expense, with respect to the Owned Real Estate and Leased Real Estate, no later than thirty (30) days after the date of this Agreement, a commitment or commitments (the "Title Commitments") having an effective date as near as feasible to the date of delivery of such Title Commitments, from a title insurance company designated by SELLER and reasonably satisfactory to BUYER, to issue to BUYER as soon as practicable after the Closing Date, as applicable, policies having an effective date as of the Closing Date, covering the Owned Real Estate and the Leased Real Estate, in an amount equal to the most recently available certified tax assessed value for the Owned Real Estate and the amount of the leasehold interest, based on the remaining rental payments due under the balance of the remaining term of the lease, to be transferred to BUYER pursuant to the Third Party Leases, subject to the Permitted Exceptions. If title to all or part of the Owned Real Estate or Leased Real Estate is unmarketable or is subject to any defect, lien, encumbrance, easement, condition, restriction or encroachment which individually or in the aggregate, materially detract from the value of, or materially interferes with the present use of, the respective parcel of Owned Real Estate or Leased Real Estate, then BUYER shall provide written notice thereof to SELLER. SELLER shall have thirty days after written notice thereof from BUYER, to elect to remedy or remove any such defect, lien, encumbrance, easement, condition, restriction or encroachment, but if SELLER does not, BUYER may elect to attempt to cure or remove such defect or encumbrance or other matter, for a period of thirty days thereafter. If such defect or encumbrance or other matter is not cured, then, in addition to any other rights which BUYER may have hereunder, BUYER shall have the right with respect to the relevant Office (i) to declare this Agreement terminated by written notice to SELLER, (ii) to negotiate, at BUYER'S cost, with the title company for certain endorsements to the standard insurance coverage to address any such defects or encumbrances, or (iii) to waive any objection to such defect or encumbrance or other matter in which event such defect, encumbrance, or other matter shall be deemed to be a Permitted Exception. The Owned Real Estate is being sold by SELLER to BUYER hereunder free and clear of all liens, claims, encumbrances and rights of tenants in possession except for the Permitted Exceptions, and the conveyance by limited warranty deed to be delivered by SELLER pursuant hereto shall be subject only to the Permitted Exceptions. SELLER also shall execute and deliver to BUYER at the time of Closing such affidavits and other instruments, if any, as the title insurance company issuing the Title Commitments may require to delete, the standard exceptions appearing as "Schedule B" items in a standard ALTA owners or leasehold owners title insurance policy, other than those which may only be deleted by a survey, provided that matters set forth in such affidavits or other instruments are required specifically to permit deletion of standard exceptions, and do not create any indemnification in favor of the title company or any other third party. SELLER also shall execute and deliver a so-called FIRPTA affidavit at Closing. BUYER shall obtain duly certified surveys for the Owned Real Estate and the Leased Real Estate with a metes and bounds legal description, depicting all easements, rights-of-way, set-back lines, and any encumbrances appearing on the title commitment, and SELLER hereby grants to BUYER and its surveyors, agents and contractors right of access to the Owned Real Estate and Leased Real Estate, with the prior consent of the landlord obtained by BUYER, for the purpose of performing the surveys. The cost of such surveys shall be shared equally by SELLER and BUYER at Closing. The legal descriptions contained in the surveys shall be used in the Limited Warranty Deeds to convey the Owned Real Estate and for title insurance for both the Owned Real Estate and the Leased Real Estate. BUYER shall obtain surveys as soon as practicable after the effective date of this Agreement and copies of the same shall be furnished to SELLER and the title companies.

(c) Required Authorizations. SELLER shall obtain and procure all necessary internal corporate approvals and authorizations, if any, required by SELLER including any authorizations or approvals required of or by PARK as the sole shareholder of VISION to enable it to fully perform all obligations imposed on it hereunder which must be performed by it at or prior to the Closing.

(d) Creation of Liens and Encumbrances. With respect to the Owned Real Estate, SELLER shall not create or allow any liens, imperfections in title, charges, easements, restrictions or encumbrances other than the Permitted Exceptions.

(e) Condemnation. If prior to Closing all or any portion of the Owned Real Estate or Leased Real Estate is taken or is made subject to eminent domain or other governmental acquisition proceedings, then SELLER shall promptly notify BUYER thereof, and BUYER may either complete the Closing and receive the proceeds, if any, paid or payable to SELLER on account of such acquisition proceedings, or terminate this Agreement as to such Office and related assets and liabilities.

7.5 Effect of Transitional Action. BUYER and SELLER hereby agree to cooperate in good faith to address the timing and settlement of any post-closing transition items not specifically addressed in this Agreement. To the extent that resolution of any such additional post-closing transition items causes SELLER to incur expenses or costs, BUYER hereby agree to reimburse SELLER for its reasonable expenses or costs incurred in connection with the same. Except as and to the extent expressly set forth in this Article 7, nothing contained in this Article 7 shall be construed to be an abridgment or nullification of the rights, customs and established practices under applicable banking laws and regulations as they affect any of the matters addressed in this Article 7.

7.6 Environmental Matters. (a) BUYER may conduct Phase I environmental site assessments (“Phase I Assessments”) of certain Owned Real Estate and shall conduct and complete each Phase I Assessment within twenty (20) days of signing this Agreement. If any Phase I Assessment reasonably indicates the necessity or desirability of further investigation to determine whether or not an Environmental Hazard exists at an Owned Real Estate, BUYER shall notify SELLER in writing, not later than ten (10) days after completion of such Phase I Assessment, of BUYER' s desire to have an environmental consultant approved by SELLER (the "Environmental Consultant") conduct a Phase II environmental site assessment (the "Phase II Assessment"), to the extent reasonable and appropriate. The Phase I and Phase II Assessments shall be conducted in such a manner so as not to interfere with the normal operation of the Owned Real Estate involved. All such Phase I and II Assessments shall be treated as information subject to Section 8.1 of this Agreement and shall be conducted at no cost or expense to SELLER. Any Phase II Assessment shall be completed not more than sixty (50) days after the signing of this Agreement. Further, BUYER shall indemnify and hold harmless SELLER and its affiliates and its and their employees, officers, directors, agents, tenants, and landlords from and against any and all liability, loss, cost, and expense, however arising, including attorney fees, as a direct or indirect result of any injuries to persons or property occurring in conjunction with conduct of the Phase I and II Assessments.

(c) Within ten (10) days from receipt of such notice of desire to conduct a Phase II Assessment, SELLER, at its sole option, may consent to BUYER conducting a Phase II Assessment or terminate this Agreement with respect to the relevant Owned Real Estate which is the proposed subject of the Phase II Assessment (the "Removed Real Estate") and any and all assets and liabilities associated therewith but otherwise this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect except that the Removed Real Estate and any and all assets and liabilities associated therewith shall be deemed not to be subject to this Agreement and eliminated therefrom. In the event a Phase II Assessment is conducted and the Environmental Consultant discovers an Environmental Hazard at any single parcel of Owned Real Estate, the remediation of which, in the reasonable judgment of the Environmental Consultant, is or would be the responsibility of SELLER, or BUYER should it acquire such Owned Real Estate, and will more likely than not result in projected remediation costs of $25,000 or more for such single parcel of Owned Real Estate, BUYER shall lease from SELLER such single parcel of Owned Real Estate pursuant to a Lease Agreement which shall provide as follows: Such Lease Agreement shall be for a term of two (2) years from the Closing Date, at a rental equal to a fair market value and with no obligation or right to renew. SELLER may sell such Owned Real Estate to any person at any time during the term of such Lease Agreement, subject to such Lease Agreement.

In case any such Claim shall be brought against the Indemnified Party and if notice shall be given to the Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish (unless the Indemnifying Party is also a party to such Claim and the Indemnified Party determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate) to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party under such Sections 8.3 or 8.4, as the case may be, for any fees of other counsel or any other related expenses with respect to the defense of such Claim, in each case subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof, other than reasonable costs of investigation.

If notice is given to the Indemnifying Party of the commencement of any Claim and it does not, within fifteen (15) days after the Indemnified Party’s notice is given, give notice to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by any determination made in such Claim or any compromise or settlement thereof effected by the Indemnified Party.
