Section 2.2(a) and the assumption of the Liabilities pursuant to Section 2.2(b),
on the Effective Date Seller shall transfer to Purchaser by wire transfer of

2.5 ALLOCATION OF CONSIDERATION.
----------------------------
Purchaser and Seller agree that the Cash Premium shall be allocated in
accordance with Exhibit H. In connection with the preparation of such allocation
the parties acknowledge that one of the principal effects of the Agreement is
the transfer of an additional asset (known in the financial community as a "Core
Deposit Intangible"), the value of which is the primary reason Purchaser has
agreed to pay the Cash Premium. In addition, the parties acknowledge that
another important corollary asset transferred to Purchaser hereunder are the
covenants not to compete required under Sections 6.5 and 6.6. Accordingly, the
parties agree that, in the preparation of any asset allocation statement, the
existence and transfer of the Core Deposit Intangible, the corollary covenants
not to compete, and any other intangible shall be taken into account and each
shall be assigned a fair market value by Purchaser. (In the event final Treasury
regulations are promulgated which do not treat a covenant not to compete as a
Section 1060 asset under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the
consideration deemed paid for such covenant shall be equal to the fair market
value thereof, determined as set forth above.)
2.6 PURCHASE OF LOANS.

(a) The Purchaser shall have the right to purchase from the Seller on
the Effective Date all loans associated with the Branches. The Purchaser shall
be afforded the opportunity to conduct reasonable due diligence with respect to
the loans, and shall have the right to reject any loan that fails to meet any of
the criteria identified in Section 2.6(e) as of the Effective Date.
(b) The purchase price for the Loans shall be an amount equal to: (i)
the book value of each Loan, plus accrued and unpaid interest and fees owed on
each Loan, each as of the close of business on the day prior to the Effective
Date; (ii) less any unearned commission with regard to credit insurance related
to any Loan, less prepaid interest on each
-5-
11
Loan, and less any unearned discount on each Loan, each as of the close of
business on the day prior to the Effective Date (the "Loan Purchase Price").
(c) In connection with the Loans transferred to Purchaser hereunder,
Seller agrees to assign and transfer to Purchaser all credit life insurance
policies applicable to such Loans. Purchaser agrees to provide any required
notice of transfer of such policies to customers, to assume and accept all
privileges, benefits, liabilities and obligations in connection with such
transfer of such policies, and Seller and Purchaser shall execute all such
instruments as may be required by the issuer of such policies in connection with
such transfer.

creditworthiness reasons, the Other Loans shall be identified

2.9 CERTAIN TRANSITIONAL MATTERS.

Following the Effective Date:
(a) The Purchaser agrees to pay in accordance with law and customary

orders presented to the Purchaser by mail, over the counter or through the check
clearing system of the banking industry, by depositors of the Deposit
Liabilities (but in no event in an amount in excess of the collected balance of
the respective deposit account), whether drawn on the checks, drafts or
withdrawal order forms provided by the Seller or by the Purchaser, and in all
other respects to discharge, in the usual course of the banking business, the
duties and obligations of the Seller with respect to the balances due and owing
to the depositors whose accounts are assumed by the Purchaser. The Purchaser's
obligation under this paragraph to honor checks, drafts and withdrawal orders on
forms provided by the Seller and carrying its imprint (including name and
transit routing number) shall not apply to any such check, draft or withdrawal
order presented to Purchaser more than sixty (60) days following the Effective

provided there are sufficient funds in the depositor's account. The Seller shall
not be deemed to have made any representation or warranty to the Purchaser with
respect to any such checks, drafts or withdrawal orders of depositors whose
accounts have been assumed by the Purchaser, and any such representations or
warranties implied by law are hereby disclaimed. The Purchaser will settle with
the Seller, on a weekly basis, any such checks, drafts or orders of withdrawal
presented by Seller to Purchaser for reimbursement. In order to reduce the
continuing charges to the Seller through the check clearing system of the
banking industry which will result from check forms of the Seller
-11-

assumed, the Purchaser agrees, at its cost and expense, and without charge to
such depositors, to notify such depositors, within thirty (30) days following
the Effective Date, of the Purchaser's assumption of Deposit Liabilities and to
furnish each depositor of an assumed checking account with checks on the forms
of the Purchaser with instructions to utilize the Purchaser's checks and to
destroy unused checks of the Seller. In addition, subsequent to regulatory
approval of the transactions contemplated hereunder, the Seller will notify its

the Purchaser, of the pending assignment to the Purchaser of the Deposit
Liabilities and business operations at the Branches which notice shall be at the
Seller's cost and expense.
(c) The Purchaser will pay to the Seller, on a weekly basis, an amount
equivalent to the amount of any checks, drafts or withdrawal orders credited to
an account which has been assumed by the Purchaser which are returned to the

extent that sufficient funds exist in such account.
(d) Manifest errors in calculation or data entry relating to any
amounts supplied hereunder may be corrected by notice to the other party within

general customer issues, in each case with respect to
the Loans or deposit accounts.

reason as not collected, (ii) the amount of any checks drawn against a deposit
account paid by Seller in accordance with (b) above and (iii) ACH debits to

(g) From and after the Effective Date Seller agrees to promptly respond
to all inquiries, notices or correspondence by deposit account or Loan customers
regarding any account transaction occurring prior to the Effective Date,
affording to such persons the same level of customer service as Seller provides
to its own customers. If any such inquiry, notice or correspondence is received
by Purchaser, Purchaser agrees to forward such inquiry, notice or correspondence
to Seller, by facsimile on the day received by Purchaser, and forward the
original inquiry to Seller, by overnight courier, within two (2) business days

any liability or obligation with respect to Taxes (as defined below)

------------------
The Seller represents and warrants to Purchaser that it has dealt with

3.13 ENVIRONMENTAL.
--------------
The Seller is not aware of any fact evidencing that the Branches are
contaminated with any Hazardous Substance (as defined herein); Seller has not
caused and will not cause, and to the best of Seller's knowledge, there never
has occurred, the release of any Hazardous
-21-
27
Substance on the Branches. To the best of the Seller's knowledge there is no (i)
friable asbestos on the Branches or (ii) underground storage tanks on the
Premises. Additionally, to the best of the Seller's knowledge, Purchaser will
not incur or be subjected to any "superfund" liability for the clean up, removal
or remediation of any Hazardous Substance from the Premises or any liability,
cost or expense for the removal of any friable asbestos or underground storage
tank from the Premises as a result of the purchase of the Branches. The terms
"Hazardous Substance," "release" and "removal" as used herein shall have the
same meaning and definition as set forth in paragraphs (14), (22) and (23),
respectively, of Title 42 U.S.C. Section 9601 provided, however, that the term
"Hazardous Substance" as used herein also shall include "hazardous waste" as
defined in paragraph (5) of 42 U.S.C. Section 6903, "petroleum" as defined in
paragraph 8 of 42 U.S.C. Section 6991 and petroleum products, including crude

Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, as
amended, (42 U.S.C. Section 9601 et. seq.), and all rules and regulations
promulgated, administered and enforced by any governmental agency or authority
pursuant thereto. The term "underground storage tank" as used herein shall have
the same meaning and definition as set forth in paragraph (1) of 42 U.S.C.
Section 6991. In the event of the breach of this warranty, Seller shall have the
right, at Seller's sole option, to either conduct remedial action to cure the
breach, at Seller's sole expense, or to repurchase the affected branch office,
at the price paid by Purchaser, plus any improvements thereon, made by
Purchaser.
3.14 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES AS TO EACH LOAN.

with the terms thereof or enforcement of any security interest securing such
Loan, each Loan, at the time it was originated and made, and the servicing of
each Loan complies in all material respects with all requirements of applicable
Federal and state laws and regulations thereunder,
-22-
28
including, without limitation, consumer credit, equal credit opportunity,

realization against the collateral of the benefit of the security.
(c) LOAN FILES: The note or equivalent document executed in connection
with each Loan is in the related loan file of Seller to be delivered to

original recorded mortgage, original recorded chattel or ship mortgage, the
receipt copies of all filed financing statements, the original motor vehicle
title or any equivalent document related to each Loan is in the related loan
file of Seller and establishes in Seller a valid, subsisting and enforceable
lien and security interest on the property described therein in the position of
priority as set forth in the loan documents. Except as disclosed in writing by
Seller, or as approved by Purchaser in writing, since December 31, 1996 no Loan
has been satisfied, subordinated, or rescinded, no guarantor or surety of any
Loan has been released (in whole or in part), and no collateral has been
released from the lien granted by the obligor, guarantor or surety of any Loan,
in whole or in part.
(d) NO AMENDMENT OR WAIVER: No Loan, or any provision thereof, has been
amended or waived by Seller, except pursuant to an instrument, writing or entry
included in the file relating to that loan or otherwise appropriately reflected
in the records of Seller and no such amendment or waiver causes any Loan not to
conform to the other warranties
-23-
29
contained in this Section. Except as disclosed in writing by seller, or as
approved by Purchaser in writing, no Loan, or any provision thereof, has been
amended or waived since December 31, 1996.
(e) NO DEFENSES: No fact exists which would give rise to any valid and
enforceable right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense and no such
right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with
respect to any Loan.
(f) NO LIENS: There are no liens or claims for work, labor or
materials, or unpaid state or federal taxes or judicial liens relating to the
collateral for any Loan and which are liens prior to, or equal or coordinate
with, the lien securing such Loan.
(g) COMPLIANCE WITH LOAN DOCUMENTS: Seller is not in material breach of
any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any document relating to
any Loan.
(h) NO DEFAULT: No event of default, breach, violation, or event
permitting acceleration under the terms of any Loan has occurred or any
continuing condition that with notice or lapse of time would constitute a
default, breach, violation, or event permitting acceleration under the terms of
any Loan has arisen, whether or not waived, that materially and adversely
affects the interest of Seller in any Loan.
(i) VALID TRANSFER: No Loan has been sold, assigned or pledged by
Seller to any other person or entity, and on the Effective Date Seller will have
good and marketable title to each Loan, free and clear of all liens or other
encumbrances, will be the sole owner thereof and will have the full right and
power to transfer and assign the Loans to Purchaser without any consent by any
obligor and, immediately upon the transfer thereof in accordance with this
Agreement, Purchaser will have good and marketable title to the Loans, free and
clear of all liens or other encumbrances.
(j) LAWFUL ASSIGNMENT: Each Loan was originated in a jurisdiction under
the laws of which the sale, transfer, and assignment of such Loan under this
Agreement will not be unlawful, void or voidable.
-24-
30
(k) ALL FILINGS MADE: All filings, including UCC filings and mortgage
recordations, necessary in any jurisdiction to create a perfected security
interest or mortgage lien against the collateral applicable to each
collateralized Loan have been made.
(l) CAPACITY OF PARTIES: All parties to each Loan had capacity to
execute the loan documents relating thereto.
(m) CREDIT INSURANCE: Each policy of credit insurance is in full force
and effect and each such credit insurance policy is assignable by Seller without
the consent of the Loan obligor to which such policy relates.
(n) TAXES, ASSESSMENTS, INSURANCE PREMIUMS AND OTHER CHARGES: All
taxes, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, water charges, sewer
charges, municipal charges, ground rents, or other outstanding charges affecting
property securing any Loan which previously became due and owing in respect of
such property have been paid, or an escrow of funds in an amount sufficient to
cover such payments has been established.
(o) NO CONDEMNATION, DAMAGE OR WASTE: There is no proceeding pending or
threatened for the total or partial condemnation of the property securing any
Loan and such property is in good repair and free and clear of any damage or
waste that would adversely affect the value of such property as security for the
Loan or the use for which the premises were intended and, without limitation of
the foregoing, no such property is adversely affected by any environmental
problem of the kind contemplated under Section 3.13 hereof.
(p) NO ADVERSE CIRCUMSTANCES OR CONDITIONS: Seller has no knowledge of
any circumstances or condition with respect to any Loan, the obligor or the
obligor's credit standing that can reasonably be expected to cause private
institutional investors to regard the Loan as an unacceptable investment, cause
the Loan to become delinquent, or adversely affect the value or marketability of
the Loan.
(q) HAZARD INSURANCE: If the Loan is a mortgage loan, all buildings
upon the related mortgaged property are insured by a generally acceptable
insurer against loss by fire, hazards or extended coverage and such other
hazards as are customary in the area where such mortgaged property is located.
All such insurance policies contain a standard mortgagee
-25-
31
clause naming the originator of the mortgage loan, its successors and assigns,
as mortgagee and all premiums thereon have been paid. The related mortgage
obligates the mortgagor thereunder to maintain all such insurance at mortgagor's
cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from the mortgagor. The
hazard insurance policy is the valid and binding obligation of the insurer, is
in full force and effect, and will be in full force and effect and inure to the
benefit of Purchaser or its assignee upon the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement. Seller has not engaged in, and has no knowledge
of the mortgagor's having engaged in, any act or omission which would impair the
coverage of any such policy, the benefits of the endorsement provided for
herein, or the validity and binding effect of either.

p.m. on the Effective Date unless discharged for cause (as determined in sole
discretion of Purchaser consistent with Purchaser established personnel
practices, procedures and policies). Purchaser agrees to compensate such
employees at a minimum, at the levels as listed on Exhibit G. Purchaser agrees

Purchaser shall not be liable for payments made or required to be made to the
employees'
-31-
37
benefit plan(s) prior to the Effective Date, and all funded pension benefits

hire or employ any employee of the Branches not listed on Exhibit "G" after the

depositors at the Branches. The Purchaser recognizes that the Seller cannot
control telemarketing and mass mailings nor distribution of "statement stuffer"
materials to customers who hold accounts or maintain banking relationships at
other branches of the Seller notwithstanding the fact that some of such
customers may also be depositors at the \
