The directors and officers of PCC shall become the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation at and as of the Effective Time; provided, that two directors from Foundation Bancorp shall be designated to serve on and appointed to the PCC Board and the PCB Board at and as of the Effective Time. It is PCC’s current expectation, subject to PCC Board approval, that the individuals to be designated to serve on and appointed to the PCC Board and the PCB Board will be Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx and Xxxxx Xxxxx. The Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of PCC will be the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation. From and after the Effective
9
Time, the Surviving Corporation shall possess all the rights, powers, privileges and franchises and be subject to all of the obligations, liabilities, restrictions and disabilities of Foundation Bancorp and PCC.
2.1.2 Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 8, the Merger shall become effective upon the occurrence of the filing of the Holding Company Plan of Merger with the Oregon Secretary of State as required under the OBCA and the filing of the Holding Company Articles of Merger with the Washington Secretary of State as required under the WBCA, and as of the date set forth in the Certificate of Merger issued by the Oregon Secretary of State, or such later date and time as may be set forth in such filing (the time the Merger becomes effective on the Effective Date being referred to as the “Effective Time”).

2.1.5 Election Procedures.
(a) Election Form. An election form, in such form as PCC and Foundation Bancorp shall reasonably agree (the “Election Form”), shall be mailed to the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp on or about the thirtieth (30th) day prior to the anticipated Effective Date. Each Election Form shall permit the holder (or in the case of nominee record holders, the beneficial owner through proper instructions and documentation), subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.1.5(c), (i) to elect to receive PCC Common Stock with respect to all of such holder’s Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and/or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock (a “Stock Election”), (ii) to elect to receive cash with respect to all of such holder’s Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and/or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock (a “Cash Election”), (iii) to elect to receive cash with respect to 30% of such holder’s shares and shares of PCC Common Stock with respect to such holder’s remaining 70% of shares (a “Mixed Election”) or (iv) to indicate that such holder makes no such election with respect to such holder’s shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock (a “Non-Election”). Shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock as to which a Cash Election has been made (including pursuant to a Mixed Election) are referred to herein as “Cash Election Shares.” Shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock as to which a Stock Election has been made (including pursuant to a Mixed Election) are referred to herein as “Stock Election Shares.” Shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock as to which no election has
10
been made are referred to herein as “No-Election Shares.” Nominee record holders who hold Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock on behalf of multiple beneficial owners shall indicate how many of the shares held by them are Stock Election Shares, Cash Election Shares and No-Election Shares based upon the actions of the beneficial owners thereof. If a shareholder either (i) does not submit and continue to maintain through the Election Deadline a properly completed Election Form or (ii) fails to perfect his, her or its right to dissent under the WBCA, the shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and/or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock held by such shareholder shall be designated No-Election Shares. Any Dissenting Shares shall be deemed to be Cash Election Shares and, with respect to such shares, the holders thereof shall in no event be classified as holders of Reallocated Stock Shares (as defined herein).
(b) Election Deadline. The term “Election Deadline” shall mean 5:00 p.m., Pacific Time, on the Business Day that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Effective Date, or such other date as PCC and Foundation Bancorp shall mutually agree upon.
(c) Effective Election. Any election to receive PCC Common Stock and/or cash shall have been properly made only if the Exchange Agent shall have actually received a properly completed Election Form by the Election Deadline. Any Election Form may be revoked or changed by the person submitting such Election Form to the Exchange Agent (or any other Person to whom the subject shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock of such holder are subsequently transferred) by written notice to the Exchange Agent only if such written notice is actually received by the Exchange Agent at or prior to the Election Deadline. The Exchange Agent shall have reasonable discretion to determine when any election, modification or revocation is received, whether any such election, modification or revocation has been properly made and to disregard immaterial defects in any Election Form, and any good faith decisions of the Exchange Agent regarding such matters shall be binding and conclusive. Neither PCC nor the Exchange Agent shall be under any obligation to notify any person of any defect in an Election Form.
(d) Allocation. The Exchange Agent shall effect the allocation among holders of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and/or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock of rights to receive PCC Common Stock and/or cash in the Merger in accordance with the Election Forms as follows:
(i) Cash Consideration Undersubscribed. If the number of Cash Election Shares times the Per Share Cash Consideration is less than an amount equal to the Aggregate Cash Consideration, then:
(1) all Cash Election Shares (subject to Section 2.1.6 with respect to Dissenters’ Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive cash;
(2) No-Election Shares shall then be deemed to be Cash Election Shares to the extent necessary to have the total number of Cash Election Shares (including Dissenters’ Shares) times the Per Share Cash Consideration equal the Aggregate Cash Consideration. If less than all of the No-Election Shares are so required to be treated as Cash Election Shares, then the Exchange Agent shall select which No-Election Shares shall be treated as Cash Election Shares in such manner as to maximize the number of No-Election Shares treated as subject to a Mixed Election, and all remaining No-Election Shares shall thereafter be treated as Stock Election Shares;
(3) if all of the No-Election Shares are treated as Cash Election Shares under the preceding subsection and the total number of Cash Election Shares times the Per Share Cash Consideration is still less than the Aggregate Cash Consideration, then the Exchange Agent shall convert on a pro rata basis as described below in Section 2.1.5(e) a sufficient number of Stock Election Shares into Cash Election Shares (“Reallocated Cash Shares”) such that the sum of the number of Cash Election Shares plus the number of Reallocated Cash Shares times the Per Share Cash Consideration equals the Aggregate Cash Consideration (provided that Stock Election Shares subject to a Mixed Election shall be treated as Reallocated Cash Shares only if the Stock Election Shares not subject to a Mixed Election are insufficient in number); and all Reallocated Cash Shares will be converted into the right to receive cash; and
11
(4) the Stock Election Shares which are not Reallocated Cash Shares shall be converted into the right to receive PCC Common Stock.
(ii) Cash Consideration Oversubscribed. If the number of Cash Election Shares times the Per Share Cash Consideration is greater than the Aggregate Cash Consideration, then:
(1) all Stock Election Shares and a sufficient number of No-Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive PCC Common Stock; provided that the Exchange Agent shall select which No-Election Shares shall be treated as Stock Election Shares in such a manner as to maximize the number of No-Election Shares treated as subject to a Mixed Election;
(2) if, after following the procedures in Section 2.1.5(d)(ii)(1), the Cash Consideration is still over-subscribed, then the Exchange Agent shall convert on a pro rata basis as described below in Section 2.1.5(e) a sufficient number of Cash Election Shares (excluding any Dissenters’ Shares) (“Reallocated Stock Shares”) such that the number of remaining Cash Election Shares (including Dissenters’ Shares) times the Per Share Cash Consideration equals the Aggregate Cash Consideration (provided that Cash Election Shares subject to a Mixed Election shall be treated as Reallocated Stock Shares only if, and to the extent that, the Cash Election Shares not subject to a Mixed Election are insufficient in number); and all Reallocated Stock Shares shall be converted into the right to receive PCC Common Stock; and
(3) the Cash Election Shares (subject to Section 2.1.6 with respect to Dissenters’ Shares) which are not Reallocated Stock Shares shall be converted into the right to receive cash.
(iii) Cash Consideration Satisfied. If the number of Cash Election Shares times the Per Share Cash Consideration is equal to the Aggregate Cash Consideration, then subparagraphs (d)(i) and (ii) above shall not apply and all Cash Election Shares (subject to Section 2.1.6 with respect to Dissenters’ Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive cash and all No-Election Shares and all Stock Election Shares will be converted into the right to receive PCC Common Stock.
(e) Pro Rata Reallocations. In the event that the Exchange Agent is required pursuant to Section 2.1.5(d)(i)(3) to convert some Stock Election Shares into Reallocated Cash Shares, each holder of Stock Election Shares shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the total Reallocated Cash Shares. In the event the Exchange Agent is required pursuant to Section 2.1.5(d)(ii)(2) to convert some Cash Election Shares into Reallocated Stock Shares, each holder of Cash Election Shares shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the total Reallocated Stock Shares.
(f) Adjustment Per Tax Opinion. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2 to the contrary, if Sidley Austin LLP and tax counsel to PCC reasonably determine that the amount of cash payable pursuant to Section 2.1.5 (prior to the application of this Section 2.1.5(f)) exceeds the maximum amount of cash that would enable Sidley Austin LLP to deliver the tax opinion referred to in Section 8.3(d) solely because the Merger would not satisfy the “continuity-of-interest” requirements of Section 368 of the Code (and relevant Treasury Regulations and other applicable authority), the amount of cash to be delivered (but for this Section 2.1.5(f)) with respect to each share of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock, that are convertible, in whole or in part, into a right to receive cash, shall be reduced to the minimum extent necessary (and PCC shall deliver with respect to each such share of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock, in lieu of the reduced amount of cash, that number of shares of PCC Common Stock having an aggregate value (based on the closing price of the PCC Common Stock on the Closing Date) equal to the reduced amount of cash) so that, in the reasonable determination of Sidley Austin LLP and tax counsel to PCC, Sidley Austin LLP shall be able to deliver the tax opinion referred to in Section 8.3(d). In making its determination, Sidley Austin LLP and tax counsel to PCC shall take into account cash in lieu of fractional shares, Dissenters’ Shares, payments made by Foundation Bancorp to its shareholders as redemption proceeds or as extraordinary dividends, the Cumulative Cash Dividend, shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock to be excluded from the relevant calculations, and such other considerations as Sidley Austin LLP and tax counsel to PCC reasonably deem necessary to take into account for purposes of making the Merger satisfy such “continuity-of-interest” requirements.
12
2.1.6 Dissenters’ Shares. All shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock that are held by a “dissenter” within the meaning of RCW §§ 23B.13.010 et seq. (“Dissenters’ Shares”) shall be converted into the right to receive payment with respect thereto in accordance with the provisions of the WBCA and shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive the Merger Consideration unless and until such shares have lost their status as Dissenters’ Shares under RCW §§ 23B.13.010 et seq. at which time each such share shall be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration. As of the Effective Time, all such shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock, and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock (which are not Dissenters’ Shares) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration to be paid in accordance with Section 2.2.
2.1.7 Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock.
(a) Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock. Foundation Bancorp shall take all actions necessary to cause each outstanding share of Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock to be fully vested so that all restrictions on the Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock shall lapse as of the Effective Time, and such shares shall be entitled to the election procedures set forth in Section 2.1.5.
(b) Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock. Each share of the Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, without the consent of the holders thereof, become convertible into the right to receive the Merger Consideration with respect to 1,500,000 shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, as provided in Section 2.1.4(b) hereof, together with the Cumulative Cash Dividend, in accordance with the Foundation Bancorp Articles. The holder of the Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock shall have the opportunity to elect the form of Merger Consideration to be received in the transaction, in accordance with Section 2.1.5 hereof. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.1.7(b) to the contrary, the holder of Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock may elect to be paid the “fair value” of its Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock pursuant to the procedure set forth in RCW §§ 23B.13.010 et seq., as provided in Section 2.1.6 hereof.
2.2 Exchange Procedures.
(a) Preliminary Mailing of Transmittal Material. Provided that Foundation Bancorp has delivered, or caused to be delivered, to the Exchange Agent all information which is reasonably necessary for the Exchange Agent to perform its obligations as specified herein, the Exchange Agent shall, and PCC shall cause the Exchange Agent to, mail or deliver to each holder of record of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and/or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock, simultaneously with the mailing or delivery of the Election Form, a form of letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to such Certificate(s) theretofore representing shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock, including certificates representing shares of Bank Common Stock that have been converted to shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock (collectively, the “Foundation Bancorp Certificates”) or book-entry shares (“Book-Entry Shares”), as relevant, shall pass only upon proper delivery of such Foundation Bancorp Certificate(s) or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent advising such holder of the procedure for surrendering to the Exchange Agent) such Foundation Bancorp Certificate(s) or Book-Entry Shares in exchange for the consideration to which such holder may be entitled pursuant to Section 2.1.4 hereof.

At least one (1) day prior to the Closing, for the benefit of the holders of Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, (i) PCC shall deliver to the Exchange Agent evidence of shares in book entry form, representing the number of shares of PCC Common Stock issuable to the holders of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock as part of the Merger Consideration and (ii) PCC shall deliver, or cause PCB to deliver, to the Exchange Agent, the cash portion of the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to this Section 2, each to be delivered to the holders of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock and Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock in exchange for their Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares as provided in this Section 2. The Exchange Agent shall not be entitled to vote or exercise any rights of ownership with respect to the shares of PCC Common Stock held by it from time to time hereunder, except that it shall receive and hold all dividends or other distributions paid or distributed with respect to such shares for the account of the Persons entitled thereto.
(d) Exchange Agent Deliveries.
(i) After completion of the allocation referred to in Section 2.1.5(d) and upon the Closing, each holder of a Foundation Bancorp Certificate or Certificates or Book-Entry Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time who has properly surrendered, or has caused to be surrendered, such Foundation Bancorp Certificate or Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of such Certificates) or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent will be entitled to evidence of issuance in book entry form, or upon written request of such holder a certificate or certificates representing, the number of whole shares of PCC Common Stock and/or the amount of cash into which the aggregate number of shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock previously represented by such Foundation Bancorp Certificate or Certificates or Book-Entry Shares surrendered shall have been converted pursuant to this Agreement and, if such holder’s shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock have been converted into PCC Common Stock, and any other distribution theretofore paid with respect to PCC Common Stock issuable in the Merger, in each case, without interest. The Exchange Agent shall accept such Foundation Bancorp Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of such Certificates) or Book-Entry Shares upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Exchange Agent may impose to effect an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with normal exchange practices.
(ii) If a holder of Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares surrenders, or causes to be surrendered, such Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares and a properly executed letter of transmittal to the Exchange Agent at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Effective Date, then PCC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange Agent to deliver, within two (2) Business Days following the Effective Date, to such holder of Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares the Merger Consideration into which the shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock represented by such Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares have been converted pursuant to Section 2.1.4. Subject to Section 2.2(b), if a holder of Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares surrenders, or causes to be surrendered, such Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares and a properly executed letter of transmittal to the Exchange Agent at any time after five (5) Business Days prior to the Effective Date, then PCC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange Agent to promptly, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days following receipt of such Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares and properly executed letter of transmittal, deliver to such holder of Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares the Merger Consideration into which the shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock represented by such Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares have been converted pursuant to Section 2.1.4.
(iii) Each Foundation Bancorp Certificate or Book-Entry Share outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time which prior to the Effective Time represented Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock and which is not surrendered to
14
and accepted by the Exchange Agent in accordance with the procedures provided for herein shall, except as otherwise herein provided, until duly surrendered to the Exchange Agent, be deemed to evidence ownership of the number of shares of PCC Common Stock and/or the right to receive the amount of cash, into which such Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock shall have been converted. After the Effective Time, there shall be no further transfer on the records of Foundation Bancorp of Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares representing Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock and, if such Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are presented to Foundation Bancorp for transfer, they shall be cancelled against delivery of certificates or book-entry shares for PCC Common Stock and/or cash as hereinabove provided. No dividends which have been declared will be remitted to any Person entitled to receive shares of PCC Common Stock under Section 2.1.4 until such Person surrenders the Foundation Bancorp Certificate or Certificates or Book-Entry Shares representing Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock, at which time such dividends shall be remitted to such Person, without interest. In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of Foundation Bancorp, the Merger Consideration to be delivered upon due surrender of the Foundation Bancorp Certificate or Book-Entry Shares may be delivered to such a transferee if the Foundation Bancorp Certificate or Book-Entry Shares formerly representing such shares is presented to PCC, accompanied by all documents reasonably required by PCC to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable stock transfer taxes have been paid or are not applicable.
(iv) In the event any Foundation Bancorp Certificate shall have 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 reasonably required by PCC or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such Person of a bond in such amount as PCC may determine is reasonably necessary as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Foundation Bancorp Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the applicable Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the requirements of this Section 2.
(v) Unclaimed Merger Consideration. Any portion of the shares of PCC Common Stock and cash delivered to the Exchange Agent by PCC pursuant to Section 2.2(c) that remains unclaimed by the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp for one (1) year after the Effective Time (as well as any proceeds from any investment thereof) shall be delivered by the Exchange Agent to PCC. Any shareholders of Foundation Bancorp who have not theretofore complied with Section 2.2(d) shall thereafter look only to PCC for the consideration deliverable in respect of each share of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock such shareholder holds as determined pursuant to this Agreement without any interest thereon. If outstanding Certificates for shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock or Book-Entry Shares are not surrendered or the payment for them is not claimed prior to the date on which such shares of PCC Common Stock or cash would otherwise escheat to any governmental unit or agency, the unclaimed items shall, to the extent permitted by abandoned property and any other applicable law, become the property of PCC (and to the extent not in its possession shall be delivered to it), free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled to such property. Neither the Exchange Agent nor any party to this Agreement shall be liable to any holder of stock represented by any Foundation Bancorp Certificate or Book-Entry Shares for any consideration paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws. PCC and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the stock transfer books of Foundation Bancorp to establish the identity of those Persons entitled to receive the Merger Consideration specified in this Agreement, which books shall be conclusive with respect thereto. In the event of a dispute with respect to ownership of stock represented by any Foundation Bancorp Certificate or any Book-Entry Shares, PCC and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deposit any Merger Consideration represented thereby in escrow with an independent third party and thereafter be relieved with respect to any claims thereto.
15
(e) No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, neither certificates nor scrip for fractional shares of PCC Common Stock shall be issued in the Merger. Each holder of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock who otherwise would have been entitled to a fraction of a share of PCC Common Stock (after taking into account all Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares delivered by such holder) shall receive in lieu thereof cash (without interest) in an amount determined by multiplying the fractional share interest to which such holder would otherwise be entitled by the Per Share Cash Consideration. No such holder shall be entitled to dividends, voting rights or any other rights in respect of any fractional share.
(f) Withholding Rights. Each of PCC, the Exchange Agent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any other applicable state, local or foreign Tax laws. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Surviving Corporation or PCC, as the case may be, such withheld amounts (i) shall be remitted by PCC or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, to the applicable Governmental Authority, and (ii) to the extent so remitted, shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of Foundation Bancorp Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Surviving Corporation or PCC, as the case may be.
2.3 Dissenters’ Shares. Any Dissenting Shareholder who shall be entitled to be paid the fair value of such shareholder’s shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock, Foundation Bancorp Restricted Stock or Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock, as provided in RCW §§ 23B.13.010 et seq., shall not be entitled to the Merger Consideration in respect thereof unless and until such Dissenting Shareholder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such Dissenting Shareholder’s right to dissent from the Merger under the WBCA, and shall be entitled to receive only the payment provided for by RCW §§ 23B.13.010 et seq. with respect to such Dissenters’ Shares.
2.4 The Bank Merger.
2.4.1 As soon as practicable after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, PCB and the Bank will enter into an agreement (the “Bank Plan of Merger”), pursuant to which the Bank Merger will be effected. The Bank Plan of Merger will provide that the closing of the Bank Merger shall take place as soon as practicable following the closing of the Merger or such other time or date as may be determined by PCC (the “Bank Merger Date”); conditioned, however, on the prior closing of the Merger. The Bank Merger will occur on the Bank Merger Date, following the filing of the Bank Plan of Merger with the Oregon Director as required under the OBCA and the filing of the Bank Articles of Merger with the Washington Secretary of State as required under the WBCA.
2.4.2 Upon consummation of the Bank Merger, the Bank will be merged with and into PCB in accordance with the provisions of the Oregon Bank Act and the Washington Commercial Bank Act, with PCB being the resulting bank (the “Resulting Bank”) and having its head office in Eugene, Oregon, and the separate corporate existence of the Bank shall cease.
2.4.3 As of the date set forth in the Certificate of Merger issued by the Oregon Director upon filing of the Bank Plan of Merger, PCB’s Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws and banking charter in effect immediately before the date set forth on the Certificate of Merger shall be the articles of incorporation, bylaws and banking charter of the Resulting Bank.
2.4.4 Upon effectiveness of the Bank Merger, each outstanding share of PCB common stock shall remain outstanding as a share of the Resulting Bank, the holder of each of such shares shall retain its rights with respect to such shares as in effect prior to the Bank Merger, and each outstanding share of the Bank will be cancelled.

Each Foundation Bancorp Plan that is intended to be tax-qualified has a currently effective favorable determination or may rely on a currently effective favorable opinion from the Internal Revenue Service as to the Plan’s qualification under the Code, and to the Knowledge of Foundation Bancorp, no circumstance exists that is likely to result in the loss of such qualified status under Section 401(a) of the Code.

(f) Neither Foundation Bancorp nor, to the Knowledge of Foundation Bancorp, any plan fiduciary of any Foundation Bancorp Plan, has engaged in any transaction in violation of Section 406(a) or (b) of ERISA for which no exemption exists under Section 408 of ERISA or for which no exemption has been granted by the Department of Labor or any “prohibited transaction” (as defined in Section 4975(c)(1) of the Code) for which no exemption exists under Section 4975(c)(2) or (d) of the Code or for which no exemption has been granted by the Internal Revenue Service and that would be reasonably be expected to result in mutual liability of Foundation Bancorp. To the Knowledge of Foundation Bancorp, neither Foundation Bancorp nor any ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a transaction in connection with which Foundation Bancorp or any ERISA Affiliate could be subject to either a civil penalty assessed pursuant to Section 409 or 502(i) of ERISA or a tax imposed pursuant to Section 4975 or 4976 of the Code.

In any event, neither Foundation Bancorp nor any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary shall provide any confidential information or data to any Person in connection with an Acquisition Proposal unless such Person shall have executed a confidentiality agreement on terms at least as favorable in all material respects, in the aggregate, to Foundation Bancorp as those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement.

Except as expressly provided for in this Agreement and in the usual, regular and ordinary course consistent with past practice, from the date hereof until the Effective Time, PCC covenants to Foundation Bancorp, for itself and on behalf of the PCC Subsidiaries, that, without first obtaining the written approval of Foundation Bancorp (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), PCC will not, and will cause each PCC Subsidiary not to:

The parties will cooperate with each other in preparing the Registration Statement and Prospectus/Proxy Statement, and will use their best efforts to obtain the clearance of the SEC, any appropriate state securities regulators and any other required regulatory approvals, to issue the Prospectus/Proxy Statement. Nothing will be included in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus/Proxy Statement or any proxy solicitation materials with respect to any party to this Agreement unless approved by that party, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld.
(b) When the Registration Statement becomes effective, and at all times subsequent to such effectiveness (up to and including the date of the Foundation Bancorp Meeting), all information set forth in the Registration Statement that is or to be furnished by or on behalf of PCC relating to PCC and PCB and by or on behalf of Foundation Bancorp relating to Foundation Bancorp and the Bank, (1) will comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Securities Act and any other applicable statutory or regulatory requirements, and (2) will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact that is required to be stated or necessary to make the statements in the Registration Statement not misleading; provided, however, that in no event will any party be liable for any untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact in the Registration Statement where such statement or omission, as the case may be, was made in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information concerning another party furnished by or on behalf of such other party specifically for use in the Registration Statement. PCC and Foundation Bancorp each agree that if it becomes aware that any information furnished by it would cause any of the statements in the Registration Statement or Prospectus/Proxy Statement to be false or misleading with respect to any material fact, or to omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not false or misleading, to promptly inform the other party thereof and PCC will take all appropriate steps to correct the Registration Statement or Prospectus/Proxy Statement.
(c) Each of PCC and Foundation Bancorp shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) avoid the entry of, or to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any Order, that would restrain, prevent or delay the completion of the Mergers, and (ii) avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any applicable law and resolve any questions or issues raised by any Government Authority so as to enable the Closing to occur as soon as possible, and in any event no later than January 31, 2017, including without limitation, making and incurring commercially reasonable expenditures and cost; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall require PCC to take any actions specified in this Section 7.3(c) that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (measured on a scale relative to Foundation Bancorp) on PCC or Foundation Bancorp.
(d) PCC will pay all fees and costs associated with the preparation by PCC’s counsel (and other professional advisors), and all regulatory filing fees, transfer taxes (other than shareholder taxes) and the costs of printing and mailing the proxy materials incurred by any party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and any other direct costs incurred in connection with the Prospectus/Proxy Statement.
50
Foundation Bancorp will pay all costs associated with its review and preparation of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus/Proxy Statement.
(e) PCC will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain, prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement, any necessary state securities laws or “Blue Sky” permits and approvals.

PCC will cooperate with Foundation Bancorp, and use its reasonable best efforts, to prepare all documentation, timely effect all filings and obtain, and to assist Foundation Bancorp in obtaining, all permits, approvals, consents, authorizations, waivers and orders of all third parties and Governmental Authority, including the FDIC, FRB, Secretary of State of the State of Oregon and the State of Washington, the Oregon Director and the Washington Director, necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, PCC, PCB and Foundation Bancorp and the Bank shall cooperate with one another and use reasonable best efforts to take or cause to be taken all actions, and do or cause to be done all things, reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part under this Agreement and applicable laws to consummate and make effective the Mergers and other transactions contemplated by this Agreement as soon as practicable, including preparing and filing as promptly as practicable all documentation to effect all necessary notices, reports and other filings and to obtain as promptly as practicable all consents, registrations, approvals, permits and authorizations necessary or advisable to be obtained from any third party or any Governmental Authority in order to consummate the Mergers or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Subject to applicable laws relating to the exchange of information, PCC shall provide Foundation Bancorp an opportunity to review in advance, and to the extent practicable will consult with Foundation Bancorp and consider in good faith the views of Foundation Bancorp in connection with, all of the information relating to Foundation Bancorp that appears in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party or any Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In exercising the foregoing rights, Foundation Bancorp shall act reasonably and as promptly as practicable. PCC shall, upon request by Foundation Bancorp, furnish Foundation Bancorp with all information concerning itself, its subsidiaries, directors, officers and shareholders and such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with any statement, filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of Foundation Bancorp to any third party or any Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Subject to applicable law, PCC shall keep Foundation Bancorp apprised of the status of matters relating to completion of the transactions contemplated hereby, including promptly furnishing Foundation Bancorp with copies of notices or other communications received by PCC or PCB, from any third party or any Governmental Authority with respect to such transactions. Any initial filing with Governmental Authorities shall be made by PCC as soon as reasonably practicable after the execution hereof but, provided that Foundation Bancorp has cooperated as described in Section 6.6, in no event later than thirty (30) days after the date hereof for the application required by the FRB and the Bank Merger Application required by the FDIC, the Oregon Director and the Washington Director.
7.5 Updating and Correcting Information. PCC shall give prompt notice to Foundation Bancorp of any fact, event or circumstance known to it that (a) could be reasonably likely, individually or taken together with all other facts, events and circumstances known to it, to result in any Material Adverse Effect or (b) would cause or constitute a material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained herein. PCC shall promptly inform Foundation Bancorp upon receiving notice of any legal, administrative, arbitration or other proceedings, demands, notices, audits or investigations by any Governmental Authority relating to the alleged liability of PCC or any PCC Subsidiary under any labor or employment law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, supplementation of the PCC Disclosure Schedule following the execution of this Agreement shall not be deemed a modification of PCC’s representations or warranties contained herein.
51
7.6 Other Actions. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of PCC and the PCC Subsidiaries agrees to use its reasonable best efforts in good faith to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or desirable, or advisable under applicable laws, so as to permit consummation of the Mergers as promptly as practicable and otherwise to enable consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8 hereof, and shall cooperate fully with Foundation Bancorp to that end.
7.7 Employee Matters.
(a) From and after the Effective Time, PCC will honor in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately before the Effective Time, and make the payments provided for in accordance with the terms (other than a requirement of termination of employment) of, all written employment agreements entered into prior to the date hereof and set forth on Section 7.7(a) of the Foundation Bancorp Disclosure Schedule, regardless of whether such officers who are party to such agreements will be Continuing Employees, subject to any limitations imposed under applicable law or by any Regulatory Authority; provided, however, that such officers have entered into written agreements with PCC, in a form mutually acceptable to Foundation Bancorp and PCC, to release PCC and the PCC Subsidiaries and their predecessors in interest from any liabilities arising out of or related to such payments. Nothing herein shall be construed as creating an obligation on PCC to reimburse or gross up any officer or other employee for any income tax or penalty, including as a result of any “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code or any “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, that would otherwise by payable by the officer, employee, or Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary.
(b) Prior to the Effective Date, PCC shall determine which of the employees of Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary will be offered employment by PCB immediately following the Effective Date (the employees who accept such offers of employment, “Continuing Employees”) and shall give notice thereof to Foundation Bancorp. Effective no later than immediately prior to the Effective Time, Foundation Bancorp shall terminate the employment of each of these employees of Foundation Bancorp and the Foundation Bancorp Subsidiaries who PCC notifies Foundation Bancorp in writing at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Effective Time that PCC does not intend to offer continued employment with PCB after the Effective Date. Such employees to whom PCC does not intend to offer continued employment, and whose employment is therefore terminated, along with any Continuing Employee whose employment is terminated during the six (6) month period following the Effective Time (other than for cause), shall be entitled to receive the benefits and severance pay in accordance with Section 7.7(i) below. The employment of the Continuing Employees shall be subject to the terms, conditions and policies of employment that apply to similarly situated employees of PCB. To the extent that the Continuing Employees do not continue to be covered after the Effective Time by the Foundation Bancorp Plans that provide medical, dental and other welfare benefits (the “Foundation Bancorp Welfare Plans”), PCC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to amend its medical, dental and other welfare plans (the “PCB Welfare Plans”) and procedures so that (1) for the plan year including the Effective Date, the Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents shall not be required to satisfy any deductible, out-of-pocket maximum or similar requirements under the PCB Welfare Plans to the Continuing Employees to the extent of amounts previously credited for such purposes under the corresponding the Foundation Bancorp Welfare Plans and (2) any waiting periods, pre-existing condition exclusions or limitations and requirements to show evidence of good health contained in such PCB Welfare Plans shall be waived with respect to the Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents (except to the extent any such waiting period, pre-existing condition exclusion or limitation, or requirement to show evidence of good health applied under the corresponding the Foundation Bancorp Welfare Plan in which the participant participated or was otherwise eligible to participate). Continuing Employees will be given credit for their service with Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary for purposes of eligibility under the PCB Welfare Plans (or, if continued by PCB, the Foundation Bancorp Welfare Plans).
(c) Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.7(a) with respect to individuals with employment or other written agreements that provide for severance payments or Section 7.7(b), Continuing Employees whose
52
employment is thereafter terminated other than for cause (“cause” shall include failure to meet conduct or employment standards) will be provided with severance benefits by PCB based on the PCB Severance Policy. A description of the current PCB Severance Policy is included in Section 7.7(c) of the PCC Disclosure Schedule. Continuing Employees will be given credit for their service with Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary for purposes of determining the amount of severance benefits under the PCB Severance Policy.
(d) For purposes of vacation benefits and sick leave, service accrued with Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary shall be credited for determining a Foundation Bancorp employee’s eligibility and length of vacation and sick leave under the PCB vacation or sick leave plan, and any vacation or sick leave taken prior to the Effective Date will be subtracted under the PCB plan from the Foundation Bancorp employee’s vacation or sick leave entitlement for the calendar year in which the Effective Date occurs to the extent permitted under applicable law. A Foundation Bancorp employee’s sick leave accrued time and vacation accrued time prior to the Effective Date will be carried forward, with prospective accruals based upon PCB vacation or sick leave plans or policies.
(e) For purposes of eligibility to participate in and vesting in (but not benefit accruals under) any cash or deferred arrangement maintained by PCB that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(k) of the Code (the “PCB 401(k) Plan”), Continuing Employees shall receive credit for length of service accrued with Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary and (except to the extent such credit would result in a duplication of benefits or a greater benefit may otherwise be provided in written employment contracts) shall be entitled to participate in such plans, arrangements and similar benefits then made available to similarly situated PCB employees effective as of the Effective Time.
(f) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (1) neither PCC nor PCB is obligated to continue to employ any employee of Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary for any period of time following the Effective Date, (2) nothing in this Agreement shall limit the ability of PCC or any PCC Subsidiary to revise, amend or terminate any Employee Benefit Plan, PCB Welfare Plan or other employee benefit plan, program or policy from time to time, (3) nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as an amendment of any Employee Benefit Plans or PCB Welfare Plan, and (4) no provision of this Section 7.7 shall create any third party beneficiary rights in any employee, director, former employee or former director (including any beneficiary or dependent of such employee, director, former employee or former director) of Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary in respect of continued employment or service (or resumed employment or service) or any other matter.
(g) Prior to the Effective Date, Foundation Bancorp shall take all actions necessary or appropriate to terminate the Foundation Bancorp Stock Plan and the qualified cash or deferred arrangement maintained by Foundation Bancorp (the “Foundation Bancorp 401(k) Plan”), including adoption of an appropriate resolution of the Foundation Bancorp Board. In addition, prior to the Effective Date, Foundation Bancorp and each Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary shall upon reasonable request of PCC (taking into account time considerations, the ability to make any relations actions contingent on the Closing occurring, and the need for consent from any third parties, including employees), take all reasonable actions requested by PCB in writing that may be necessary or appropriate to (1) cause one or more of the other Foundation Bancorp Plans to terminate as of the Effective Date, or as of the date immediately preceding the Effective Date, subject to the terms of the Foundation Bancorp Plans and applicable law, (2) cause benefit accruals and entitlements under any Foundation Bancorp Plan to cease as of the Effective Date, or as of the date immediately preceding the Effective Date, (3) make a good faith effort to cause the continuation on and after the Effective Date of any contract, arrangement or insurance policy relating to any Foundation Bancorp Plan for such period as may be requested by PCB, or (4) facilitate the merger of any Foundation Bancorp Plan into any employee benefit plan maintained by PCB after the Effective Date. All resolutions, notices, or other documents issued, adopted or executed in connection with the implementation of this Section 7.7(g) shall be subject to PCB’s prior review and approval.
(h) Prior to the Effective Time, Foundation Bancorp and each Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary shall cooperate with PCB to allow PCB, in its sole discretion, but subject to reasonable procedures and limitations
53
established by Foundation Bancorp, to (1) arrange and conduct for employees of Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary, an open enrollment period for PCB Welfare Plans (to the extent such plans will be made available to such employees) and employee orientation sessions (with such sessions to be held at times reasonably agreed to by PCB and Foundation Bancorp), and (2) meet with employees of Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary (either individually or in groups) during breaks, or as otherwise agreed to by PCB and Foundation Bancorp.
(i) At the Effective Time or such later time when a termination of employment occurs, as applicable, except with respect to those officers or employees of Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary who are party to an employment agreement or other agreement providing for greater severance benefits with Foundation Bancorp or with such Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary, PCC shall pay to (1) those employees of Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary who are not Continuing Employees and (2) Continuing Employees whose employment is terminated in the six (6) month period following the Effective Time, an amount of severance pay in cash equal to two (2) weeks’ salary for every year of service with Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary, subject to a minimum severance pay amount of four (4) weeks’ salary.
(j) PCB shall take all steps reasonably necessary to permit each Continuing Employee who has received an eligible rollover distribution (as defined in Section 402(c)(4) of the Code) from the Foundation Bancorp 401(k) Plan to roll over such eligible distribution as part of any lump sum distributions, to the extent permitted by the Foundation Bancorp 401(k) Plan, into an account under the PCB 401(k) Plan.
7.8 Indemnification of Directors and Officers; D&O Insurance.
(a) In the event of any threatened or actual claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal or administrative, including, without limitation, any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation in which any person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date of this Agreement, or who becomes prior to the Effective Date, a director or officer of Foundation Bancorp or the Bank (the “Indemnified Parties”) is, or is threatened to be, made a party based in whole or in part on, or arising in whole or in part out of, or pertaining to (i) the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer or employee of Foundation Bancorp or the Bank, or (ii) this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, whether in any case asserted or arising before or after the Effective Date, the parties hereto agree to cooperate and use their reasonable best efforts to defend against and respond thereto. On and after the Effective Time, PCC shall indemnify and hold harmless, as and to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, the Foundation Bancorp Articles and Foundation Bancorp Bylaws, and the Bank Articles and the Bank Bylaws, the Indemnified Parties against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in advance of the final disposition of any claim, suit, proceeding or investigation to each Indemnified Party to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law upon receipt of an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification), judgments and fines incurred in connection with any such threatened or actual claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, and in the event of any such threatened or actual claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, the Indemnified Parties may retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to them; provided, however, that (1) PCC shall have the right to assume the defense thereof and upon such assumption PCC shall not be liable to any Indemnified Party for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses subsequently incurred by any Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof, except that if PCC elects not to assume such defense or counsel for the Indemnified Parties reasonably advises the Indemnified Parties that there are issues which raise conflicts of interest between PCC and the Indemnified Parties, the Indemnified Parties may retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to them after notification, and PCC shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel for the Indemnified Parties; (2) PCC shall not be liable for any settlement effected without its prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed; and (3) PCC shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Party when and if a court of competent jurisdiction shall ultimately determine, and such determination shall have become final and non-appealable, that indemnification of such Indemnified Party in the
54
manner contemplated hereby is prohibited by applicable law; provided further, however, that any such determination shall not limit or affect the availability of insurance protection, as set forth in Section 7.8(d), unless the insurance policy provides for such a limitation or otherwise excludes coverage under such circumstances.
(b) Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under Section 7.8(a), upon learning of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, shall promptly notify PCC thereof in writing, provided that the failure to so notify PCC shall not relieve PCC of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that such failure materially prejudices PCC. PCC’s obligations under Section 7.8(a) continue in full force and effect for a period of six (6) years from the Effective Date; provided, however, that all rights to indemnification in respect of any claim asserted or made within such period shall continue until the final disposition of such claim.
(c) PCC agrees that all rights to indemnification in favor of an Indemnified Party as provided in the Foundation Bancorp Articles or Foundation Bancorp Bylaws, or the Bank Articles and the Bank Bylaws, as in effect as of the date of this Agreement, with respect to matters occurring prior to the Effective Time, shall survive the Mergers and continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms, and shall be honored by PCC or its successor as if they were the indemnifying party thereunder, without any amendment thereto, for a period of six (6) years from the Effective Date. Nothing in this Section 7.8(c) shall require any amendment to the articles of incorporation of PCC or PCB.
(d) Prior to the Effective Time, Foundation Bancorp shall and, if Foundation Bancorp is unable to, PCC shall cause the Surviving Corporation as of the Effective Time to, obtain and fully pay for “tail” insurance with a claims period of at least six (6) years from and after the Effective Time with respect to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance (collectively, “D&O Insurance”) with benefits and levels of coverage at least as favorable to the Indemnified Parties as Foundation Bancorp’s existing policies with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including in connection with this Agreement or the transactions or actions contemplated hereby); provided, however, that in no event shall Foundation Bancorp or PCC expend for “tail” insurance policies a premium amount in excess of 300% of the annual premiums currently paid by Foundation Bancorp for such insurance. If Foundation Bancorp and the Surviving Corporation for any reason fails to obtain such “tail” insurance policies as of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and PCC shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, continue to maintain in effect for a period of at least six (6) years from and after the Effective Time the D&O Insurance in place as of the date of this Agreement with benefits and levels of coverage at least as favorable to the Indemnified Parties as provided in Foundation Bancorp’s existing policies as of the date of this Agreement, or the Surviving Corporation shall, and PCC shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, purchase comparable D&O Insurance for such six (6) year period with benefits and levels of coverage at least as favorable to the Indemnified Parties as provided in Foundation Bancorp’s existing policies as of the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that in no event shall PCC or the Surviving Corporation be required to expend for such policies an annual premium amount in excess of 300% of the annual premiums currently paid by Foundation Bancorp for such insurance; and, provided, further, that if the annual premiums of such insurance coverage exceed such amount, the Surviving Corporation shall, and PCC shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding such amount.
(e) If PCC or any of its successors or assigns (1) shall consolidate with or merge into any other corporation or entity and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (2) shall transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any individual, corporation or other entity, then, and in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the surviving corporation shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 7.8.
(f) The provisions of Section 7.8(a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties, their heirs and their representatives following consummation of the Mergers.
55
(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.8, PCC shall have no obligation to indemnify an Indemnified Party against a claim asserted by another Indemnified Party, or any affiliate of Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary.
7.9 Trust Preferred Securities. PCC acknowledges that Foundation Statutory Trust I holds subordinated debentures issued by Foundation Bancorp (the “Debentures”) pursuant to that certain Indenture, dated as of August 10, 2006, by and between Foundation Bancorp and Wilmington Trust Company, as trustee (the “Indenture”). PCC agrees that at the Effective Time, it shall expressly assume all of Foundation Bancorp’s obligations under the Indenture relating to the Debentures (including, without limitation, being substituted for Foundation Bancorp) and execute any and all documents, instruments and agreements, including any supplemental indentures, guarantees, officer’s certificates, opinions of counsel and declarations of trust required by the Indenture, or as may reasonably be requested by the trustee thereunder, and thereafter shall perform all of Foundation Bancorp’s obligations with respect to the Indenture (the “Trust Preferred Assumption”).

The representations and warranties of each of PCC and PCB set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Effective Time as though made on and as of the Effective Time (except that representations and warranties that by their terms speak specifically as of the date of this Agreement or another date shall be true and correct as of such date); provided, however, that no representation or warranty of PCC or PCB (other than the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5.1 (Organization, Standing and Authority), Section 5.9 (Corporate and Shareholder Approval of Agreement, Binding Obligations) and Section 5.10 (Brokers and Finders), each of which shall be true and correct in all material respects; other than the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5.2 (Authorized and Outstanding Stock and Other Rights), which shall be true and correct in all respects with regard to changes to the number of shares stated in those representations and warranties in an amount in value not to exceed $250,000 in the aggregate; and other than the representations and warranties set forth in the first sentence of Section 5.7 (No Material Adverse Effect), which shall be true and correct in all respects) shall be deemed untrue or incorrect for any purposes hereunder as a consequence of the existence of any fact, event or circumstance inconsistent with such representation or warranty, unless such fact, event or circumstance, individually or taken together with all other facts, events or circumstances inconsistent with any representation or warranty of PCC or PCB, has had or would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect on PCC and PCB taken as a whole; provided, further, however, that for purposes of determining whether a representation or warranty is true and correct for purposes of this Section 8.3(a), any qualification or exception for, or reference to, materiality (including the terms “material,” “materially,” “in all material respects,” “Material Adverse Effect” or similar terms or phrases) in any such representation or warranty shall be disregarded.
(b) Performance; Compliance. PCC shall have performed in all material respects all obligations required to be performed on its part by this Agreement, and shall have complied in all material respects with all covenants required to be complied with on its part by this Agreement, prior to or at the Effective Time.
(c) Fairness Opinion. Foundation Bancorp shall have received the Fairness Opinion, and the Fairness Opinion shall not have been modified or withdrawn.
(d) Tax Opinion. Foundation Bancorp shall have received the written opinion of Sidley Austin LLP, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Foundation Bancorp, dated as of the Effective Date, substantially to the effect that, on the basis of the facts, representations and assumptions set forth in such opinion which are consistent with the state of facts existing at the Effective Time, the merger will be treated for federal income tax purposes as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. In rendering any such opinion, such counsel may require and rely upon representations and covenants, including those contained in certificates of officers of PCC, Foundation Bancorp and others, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to such counsel.
(e) Certificate. Receipt by Foundation Bancorp of a Certificate of the President and Chief Financial Officer of PCC, dated as of the Effective Date, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E, certifying to the best of their Knowledge the fulfillment of the conditions specified in Sections 8.3(a) and (b) hereof and such other matters with respect to the fulfillment by PCC of any of the conditions of this Agreement as Foundation Bancorp may reasonably request.
(f) Trust Preferred Assumption. PCC shall have executed and delivered, subject to the effectiveness of the Merger, all documents required to be executed by PCC to effect the Trust Preferred Assumption.
58
9. CLOSING.
Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 8, the closing of the Mergers (the “Closing”) will take place remotely via the electronic exchange of signature pages and closing deliverables, or such other location as the parties may mutually agree, at such time and on the date designated by PCC that is within ten (10) days following the day on which the conditions to closing set forth in Section 8 of this Agreement are satisfied or waived other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing (the “Effective Date”), or at such other time and place as the parties may agree.
10. TERMINATION.
10.1 Procedure for Termination. This Agreement may be terminated before the Effective Date:
(a) By the mutual written consent of Foundation Bancorp and PCC;
(b) By either Foundation Bancorp or PCC, if its Board of Directors so determines by vote of a majority of the members of its entire Board of Directors, upon written notice to the other party, if at the time of such notice the Merger shall not have become effective by April 30, 2017 (or such later date as shall have been agreed to in writing by PCC and Foundation Bancorp), except to the extent that the failure of the Merger to be consummated arises out of or results from the action or inaction of the party seeking to terminate, which action or inaction is in material violation of its obligations under this Agreement;
(c) By PCC or Foundation Bancorp, in the event of either: (i) a material breach by the other party of any representation or warranty contained herein, which breach cannot be or has not been cured within thirty (30) days after the giving of written notice to the breaching party of such breach; or (ii) a material breach by the other party of any of the covenants or agreements contained herein, which breach cannot be or has not been cured within thirty (30) days after the giving of written notice to the breaching party of such breach, provided that (A) such breach (under either clause (i) or (ii)) would entitle the non-breaching party not to consummate the Merger under Section 8.2 (if PCC is the non-breaching party) or Section 8.3 (if Foundation Bancorp is the non-breaching party), and (B) the terminating party is not itself in material breach of any provision of this Agreement;
(d) By Foundation Bancorp, prior to the time, but not after, the approval of this Agreement by the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp at the Foundation Bancorp Meeting has occurred, if: (i) Foundation Bancorp is not in material breach of this Agreement; (ii) Foundation Bancorp receives an unsolicited bona fide Acquisition Proposal that is not withdrawn and the Foundation Bancorp Board determines in good faith it constitutes a Superior Proposal; (iii) the Foundation Bancorp Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside, legal counsel and independent financial advisors) that failure to accept such Superior Proposal would be more likely than not inconsistent with its fiduciary obligations; (iv) Foundation Bancorp provides PCC prior written notice at least three (3) Business Days prior to terminating this Agreement, which notice shall state that the Foundation Bancorp Board has received a Superior Proposal and, absent any revision to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Foundation Bancorp Board has determined to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(d); (v) during such three (3) Business Day period, Foundation Bancorp negotiates in good faith with PCC (to the extent PCC wishes to negotiate) to enable PCC to make an improved offer such that the Acquisition Proposal at issue would cease to constitute a Superior Proposal; (vi) at the end of such three (3) Business Day period (or such earlier time that PCC advises Foundation Bancorp that it no longer wishes to negotiate to amend this Agreement), the Foundation Bancorp Board, after taking into account any modification to the terms of this Agreement and the Merger proposed by PCC, continues to believe that, such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal, and Foundation Bancorp enters into a definitive agreement for such Superior Proposal; and (vii) Foundation Bancorp, prior to such termination of this Agreement, pays to PCC in immediately available funds any amounts required to be paid pursuant to Sections 10.2.2(a) and 10.2.2(b) hereof;
(e) By either party, if any Order permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting consummation of the Merger shall become final and non-appealable (whether before or after the approval of the Merger by the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp);
59
(f) By either party, if the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp fail to approve the principal terms of this Agreement at the Foundation Bancorp Meeting (provided that a party shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement if the failure to obtain the required shareholder approval is attributable to a failure on the part of such party to perform any material obligation required hereunder to be performed by such party); or
(g) By PCC, if the Foundation Bancorp Board (i) submits this Agreement to its shareholders without a recommendation for approval or with any adverse conditions on, or qualifications of, such recommendation for approval; (ii) otherwise withdraws or materially and adversely modifies (or discloses its intention to withdraw or materially and adversely modify) its recommendation referred to in Section 6.6; or (iii) recommends to its shareholders a Superior Proposal.
10.2 Effect of Termination.
10.2.1 Except as provided in Section 11.17 and subject to Sections 10.2.2 and 10.2.3, in the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.1(a), 10.1(b), or 10.1(e), this Agreement shall become wholly void and of no further force and effect, and there shall be no liability on the part of any party or its respective Board of Directors or officers as a result of such termination or abandonment.
10.2.2 (a) If this Agreement is terminated (i) by PCC pursuant to Section 10.1(c), (ii) by Foundation Bancorp pursuant to Section 10.1(d), or (iii) by PCC pursuant to Section 10.1(g), then Foundation Bancorp agrees to pay to PCC the sum of $1,000,000 to be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by PCC within ten (10) Business Days after PCC’s request (except in the case of a termination by Foundation Bancorp pursuant to Section 10.1(d) in which case such payment shall be made prior to such termination).
(b) If this Agreement is terminated (i) by PCC pursuant to Section 10.1(c), (ii) by Foundation Bancorp pursuant to Section 10.1(d), (iii) by either party pursuant to Section 10.1(f) or (iv) by PCC pursuant to Section 10.1(g), and Foundation Bancorp publicly announces a proposal, plan or intention to do, and enters into any agreement to engage in, any transaction described in items (1), (2) or (3) of the definition of Acquisition Proposal prior to the date that is twelve (12) months from the date of termination, and such Acquisition Proposal had been proposed prior to the date of the Foundation Bancorp Meeting, in the case of termination pursuant to Section 10.1(f) or Section 10.1(g), or prior to the date of termination, in the case of termination pursuant to Section 10.1(c) or Section 10.1(d), then Foundation Bancorp will, within ten (10) Business Days after PCC’s request (except in the case of a termination by Foundation Bancorp pursuant to Section 10.1(d) in which case such payment shall be made prior to such termination), pay PCC the sum of $2,000,000 (reduced by any amounts paid or payable pursuant to Section 10.2.2(a)) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by PCC.
(c) Foundation Bancorp acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 10.2.2 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that, without these agreements, PCC would not enter into this Agreement; accordingly, if Foundation Bancorp fails to promptly pay any amounts due pursuant to this Section 10.2.2, and, in order to obtain such payment, PCC commences an action in a court of law which results in a judgment against Foundation Bancorp for any of the amounts provided for in this Section 10.2.2, Foundation Bancorp shall pay to PCC the costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the prime rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the date that such payment was required to be made plus 300 basis points.
(d) If this Agreement is terminated by Foundation Bancorp pursuant to Section 10.1(c), then PCC agrees to pay to Foundation Bancorp the sum of $2,000,000 to be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Foundation Bancorp within ten (10) Business Days after Foundation Bancorp’s request. PCC acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 10.2.2(d) are an integral part
60
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that, without these agreements, Foundation Bancorp would not enter into this Agreement; accordingly, if PCC fails to promptly pay any amounts due pursuant to this Section 10.2.2(d), and, in order to obtain such payment, Foundation Bancorp commences an action in a court of law which results in a judgment against PCC for any of the amounts provided for in this Section 10.2.2(d), PCC shall pay to Foundation Bancorp the costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the prime rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the date that such payment was required to be made plus 300 basis points.
10.2.3 Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 10.2.1 and 10.2.2, or any other provisions hereof, no party shall be relieved or released from any liabilities or damages arising out of its knowing and willful breach of any provision of this Agreement.
10.3 Documents. In the event of termination of this Agreement, each party will promptly deliver to the other party all originals and copies of documents and work papers obtained from the other party, whether so obtained before or after the execution hereof.
11. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.
11.1 Amendment or Modification. Prior to the Effective Date, this Agreement and the Agreement of Merger may be amended or modified, either before or after approval by the shareholders of Foundation Bancorp, only by an agreement in writing executed by the parties hereto upon approval of their respective Boards of Directors, except to the extent shareholder approval is required under applicable law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 11.1, PCC shall have the right, without amendment to this Agreement, but with the prior written consent of Foundation Bancorp, to restructure the form of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement if necessary for regulatory or other good business or Tax reason, provided that any such change to the transaction structure shall not (i) adversely affect the form, amount or nature of the Merger Consideration, (ii) materially impede or delay consummation of the Merger, (iii) jeopardize or materially delay receipt of any consent, order, waiver or approval of a Regulatory Authority required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (iv) adversely affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences to Foundation Bancorp, the Bank, or Foundation Bancorp’s shareholders.
11.2 Public Statements. Each party agrees that it will not, without the prior approval of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, issue any press release or written statement for general circulation relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The consent provided for in this Section 11.2 shall not be required if the delay would preclude the timely issuance of a press release or written statement required by law or any applicable regulations. The provisions of this Section 11.2 shall not be construed as limiting the parties from communications consistent with the purposes of this Agreement, including but not limited to seeking regulatory and shareholder approvals necessary to complete the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Each of the parties hereto may, by an instrument in writing, extend the time for or waive the performance of any of the obligations of the other parties hereto or waive compliance by the other parties hereto of any of the covenants or conditions contained herein or in the Agreement of Merger, other than those required by law. No such waiver or extension of time shall constitute a waiver of any subsequent or other performance or compliance. No such waiver shall require the approval of the shareholders of any party.
11.5 Expenses. Subject to Section 7.3(d), each of the parties hereto shall pay their respective expenses in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including without limitation expenses related to legal, accounting and advisory services (including financial advisory services and all contract termination costs and fees required to enable Foundation Bancorp to effect the Merger and not requested by
61
PCC) (collectively, the “Transaction Expenses”). At least five (5) Business Days prior to the Effective Time, Foundation Bancorp shall submit to PCC an itemized list of its Transaction Expenses incurred or to be incurred prior to the Effective Time; provided that Foundation Bancorp’s Transaction Expenses shall not exceed $1,200,000. To the extent that Foundation Bancorp’s aggregate Transaction Expenses, on an after-Tax basis (such basis to be determined using Foundation Bancorp’s then effective Tax rate), exceed $1,200,000, any excess shall reduce the Per Share Cash Consideration by the quotient of (i) such excess divided by (ii) the total number of shares of issued and outstanding Foundation Bancorp Common Stock (including that number of shares of Foundation Bancorp Common Stock into which the shares of Foundation Bancorp Preferred Stock shall be convertible). For purposes of this Agreement, “Transaction Expenses” shall not include any costs or expenses incurred or accrued by Foundation Bancorp in connection with or arising out of: (i) any retention, severance or change in control payments made or to be made to employees of Foundation Bancorp or any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary and approved by PCC; (ii) the acceleration of unvested Foundation Bancorp RSUs; (iii) any other payments listed in Section 6.2(n) of the Foundation Bancorp Disclosure Schedule; (iv) any legal action brought by a shareholder of Foundation Bancorp in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (v) the required payment of the Cumulative Cash Dividend; and (vi) the purchase by Foundation Bancorp of the “tail” insurance policy pursuant to Section 7.8 of this Agreement.

It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek specific performance of the terms hereof, this being in addition to any other remedies to which they are entitled at law or equity, in tort or any other claims.
11.9 No Benefit to Third Parties. Except as expressly set forth in Section 7.8, nothing herein expressed or implied is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give any person or entity, other than the parties hereto, any right or remedy under or by reason hereof.

11.12 Entire Agreement. Except for the Confidentiality Agreement, this Agreement, including all of the schedules and exhibits hereto and other documents or agreements referred to herein, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the Mergers and other transactions contemplated hereby and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to such matters.
11.13 Headings. The article and section headings in this Agreement are for the convenience of the parties and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.
11.14 Counterparts. At the convenience of the parties, this Agreement may be executed in counterparts, and each such executed counterpart shall be deemed to be an original instrument, but all such executed counterparts together shall constitute but one Agreement.
11.15 Material Adverse Effect. As used in this Agreement, a “Material Adverse Effect” means, with respect to PCC or Foundation Bancorp, any circumstance, occurrence or change that (i) is material and adverse to
63
the financial condition, results of operations, or business of PCC or Foundation Bancorp and their respective Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, as the case may be, including with respect to currently pending litigation, or (ii) would impair the ability of either PCC or Foundation Bancorp, respectively, to complete the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that a material adverse effect shall not be deemed to include effects arising out of, relating to, or resulting in any way from: (a) changes in banking and similar laws, rules or regulations of general applicability or interpretations thereof by Governmental Authorities, or other laws, rules and regulations of general applicability to companies in the industries in which PCC or Foundation Bancorp operate; (b) changes in GAAP or regulatory accounting requirements applicable to banks and their holding companies generally; (c) changes after the date hereof in economic, business, political, market or financial conditions affecting financial institutions generally; (d) any decline in the trading price of the common stock of Foundation Bancorp or PCC or a failure by Foundation Bancorp or PCC, as the case may be, to meet any published analyst estimates of revenues or earnings for any period ending on or after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Closing, provided, however, that the exception in this clause (d) shall not prevent or otherwise affect a determination that any change, effect, circumstance or development underlying such failure has resulted in, or contributed to, a Material Adverse Effect; (e) changes after the date hereof in the credit markets generally, and downgrades in the credit markets generally, or adverse credit events resulting in deterioration in the credit markets generally; (f) any modifications or changes to valuation policies and practices in connection with the Mergers or restructuring charges taken in connection with the Mergers, each in accordance with GAAP as agreed to by the parties hereto, which agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld; or (g) the entry into or the announcement of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or the compliance by Foundation Bancorp or the Bank with the terms of this Agreement, including without limitation, the completion of the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, further, that, with respect to clauses (a), (b), (c), and (e) such change, event, circumstance or development does not have an effect that is materially disproportionately adverse to the financial condition, results of operations, or business of Foundation Bancorp or PCC, as the case may be, compared to other companies of similar size operating in the banking markets in which Foundation Bancorp or PCC operates.
11.16 Tax Treatment.
(a) Each of PCC and Foundation Bancorp acknowledge and agree that it intends for U.S. federal income tax purposes that the Merger will be treated as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. The parties hereto hereby adopt this Agreement for purposes of Section 368(a) of the Code as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-2(g).
(b) From and after the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time, each party hereto shall cause the Merger to qualify, and will not take any action, cause any action to be taken, fail to take any action or cause any action to fail to be taken, which action or failure to act could prevent the Merger from qualifying, as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. Following the Effective Time, none of the Surviving Corporation, any Foundation Bancorp Subsidiary or any of their affiliates shall take any action, cause any action to be taken, fail to take any action or cause any action to fail to be taken, which action or failure to act could cause the Merger to fail to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code; provided that (1) each party acknowledges it believes that the consummation of the Bank Merger will not cause the Merger to fail to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and agrees that consummation of the Bank Merger will not be a breach of this Section 11.16(b), and (2) neither party shall take any position inconsistent with the position described in clause (1) immediately above on any Tax Return, or in the course of any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to U.S. federal, state or local income Taxes, except as otherwise required by applicable legal requirements following a final determination by a court of competent jurisdiction or other final administrative decision by an applicable Governmental Authority.
(c) Each of PCC and Foundation Bancorp agrees to prepare and file all U.S. federal income Tax Returns in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.16 and shall not take any position inconsistent therewith on any such Tax Return, or in the course of any audit, litigation or other proceeding with
64
respect to U.S. federal income Taxes, except as otherwise required by applicable legal requirements following a final determination by a court of competent jurisdiction or other final administrative decision by an applicable Governmental Authority.
11.17 Survival. The agreements of PCC contained in Section 2, Section 7.7 and Section 7.8 of this Agreement that contemplate actions taken by PCC after Closing shall survive the consummation of the Merger. Section 10 and Section 11 of this Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement. All other representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement shall not survive the consummation of the Merger or the termination of this Agreement.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto, pursuant to the approval and authority duly given by resolutions adopted by their respective Boards of Directors, have each caused this Agreement to be executed by its duly authorized officers.
