{Clients/1521/00383953.DOCX/7 }5

dispute with respect to ownership of any shares of Company Common Stock represented by any Certificate, Buyer and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to tender to the custody of any court of competent jurisdiction any Merger Consideration represented by such Certificate and file legal proceedings interpleading all parties to such dispute, and will thereafter be relieved with respect to any claims thereto.

Any amounts so deducted and withheld shall be remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority and upon such remittance shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Holder in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Buyer or the Exchange Agent, as applicable.

(c)Company shall adjourn or postpone the Company Meeting, if, as of the time for which such meeting is originally scheduled there are insufficient shares of Company Common Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of such meeting, or if on the date of such meeting Company has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of shares necessary to obtain the Requisite Company Shareholder Approval. Company shall only be required to adjourn or postpone the Company Meeting one (1) time pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 6.04(c).

(a)Each of Buyer and Company and their respective Subsidiaries shall cooperate and use their commercially reasonable efforts (i) to prepare all documentation, to effect all filings and to obtain all permits, consents, approvals and authorizations of all third parties and Governmental Authorities necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including without limitation, the Regulatory Approvals and all other consents and approvals of a Governmental Authority required to consummate the Merger in the manner contemplated herein (provided, however, that the Company’s obligation to participate in such Regulatory Approvals shall be non-financial), (ii) to comply with the terms and conditions of such permits, consents, approvals and authorizations and (iii) to cause the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be consummated as expeditiously as practicable; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall Buyer be required to agree to any prohibition, limitation, or other requirement, or take any action or omit to take any action, which is not set forth in existing law, regulation or written policy of the FDIC, the FRB or the OCC that would (a) prohibit or limit the ownership or operation by Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries, of all or any material portion of the business or assets of Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (b) compel Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries to dispose of all or any material portion of the business or assets of Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or (c) otherwise be reasonably likely, individually or in the aggregate, to result in restrictions on the operation of the Company by Buyer in such a way that results in a Material Adverse Effect on Buyer and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole and giving effect to the Merger (measured on a scale relative to Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole) (together, the “Burdensome Conditions”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, as soon as practicable and in no event later than forty-five (45) days after the date of this Agreement, Buyer and Company shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, each prepare and file any applications, notices and filings required in order to obtain the Regulatory Approvals and other Governmental Authority consents and approvals required to consummate the Merger.

Each party hereto shall provide the other party with the opportunity to participate in meetings or substantive telephone discussions that it or its representatives may from time to time have with any Governmental Authority with respect to the transactions contemplated thereby.

(b)Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts, and Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with Company at Company’s request, to obtain all consents, approvals, authorizations, waivers or similar affirmations described on Company Disclosure Schedule 3.13(c); provided that neither Company nor any of its Subsidiaries will be required to make any payment to or grant any concessions to any third party in connection therewith (and shall not make any such payment or grant any such concession without the prior written consent of Buyer). Each party will, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, notify the other party promptly and shall promptly furnish the other party with copies of notices or other communications received by such party or any of its Subsidiaries of any communication from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person (or another Person) is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (and the response thereto from such party, its Subsidiaries or its representatives). Company will reasonably consult with Buyer and its representatives so as to permit Company and Buyer and their respective representatives to take appropriate measures to obtain such consents and avoid or mitigate any adverse consequences that may result from the foregoing.

Section 6.06.Publicity. Buyer and Company shall consult with each other before issuing any press release with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the prior consent of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld; provided, however, that either party may, without the prior consent of the other party (but after such consultation, to the extent practicable in the circumstances), issue such press release, make any required filing or make such public statements as may be required by Law.

Section 6.07.Access; Current Information.

(a)Subject to Section 6.07(e) and the COVID-19 precautions, upon reasonable notice and subject to applicable Laws, each of Buyer and Company, for the purposes of verifying the representations and warranties of the other party and preparing for the Merger and the other matters contemplated by this Agreement, agrees to afford to the other party and its officers,

{Clients/1521/00383953.DOCX/7 }45

employees, counsel, accountants and other authorized representatives such access during normal business hours and from time to time throughout the period prior to the Effective Time to its and its Subsidiaries’ books, records (including, without limitation, Tax Returns and, subject to the consent of the independent auditors, work papers of independent auditors), information technology systems, properties and personnel and to such other information relating to them as such party may reasonably request and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide any appropriate notices to employees and/or customers in accordance with applicable Law and its privacy policy.

(b)As soon as reasonably practicable after they become available, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, Company will furnish to Buyer copies of the board packages distributed to Company’s Board or the board of directors of its subsidiary bank, and minutes from the meetings thereof, copies of any internal management financial control reports showing actual financial performance against plan and previous period, and copies of any reports provided to its Board or any committee thereof relating to its financial performance and risk management.

(c)During the period from the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time, Company will cause one or more of its designated representatives to confer on a regular basis with representatives of Buyer and to report the general status of the ongoing operations of Company and its Subsidiaries. Without limiting the foregoing, Company agrees to provide to Buyer, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, a copy of each report filed by it or any of its Subsidiaries with a Governmental Authority reasonably promptly following the filing thereof. During the period from the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time, each party will promptly supplement or amend its Disclosure Schedule delivered in connection herewith with respect to any matter hereafter arising which, if existing, occurring or known at the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in its Disclosure Schedule or which is necessary to correct any information in its Disclosure Schedule which has been rendered materially inaccurate thereby. No supplement or amendment to its Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to be an admission by Company that such Company Disclosure Schedule was materially inaccurate prior to such supplement or amendment or that such supplement or amendment constitutes a material change.

(d)No investigation by a party or its representatives, or updating of any Disclosure Schedule, shall be deemed to modify or waive any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of any party or its subsidiary bank set forth in this Agreement, or the conditions to the respective obligations of Buyer and Company to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. Any investigation pursuant to this Section 6.07 shall be conducted in such manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of business of the other party or any of its Subsidiaries. The Company and Buyer will not, and will cause its respective representatives not to, use any information and documents obtained in the course of the consideration of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including any information obtained pursuant to this Section 6.07, for any purpose unrelated to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and will hold such information and documents in confidence and treat such information and documents as secret and confidential and to use all reasonable efforts to safeguard the confidentiality of such information and documents.

(e)Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.07 to the contrary, no party shall be required to provide the other with any documents (including board minutes) that disclose confidential discussions, evaluations or information relating to this Agreement or the transactions

{Clients/1521/00383953.DOCX/7 }46

contemplated hereby (including any third party proposals received prior to or following the date hereof), any confidential supervisory information or any other matter that may violate a confidentiality obligation or fiduciary duty or any Law or regulation, or may result in its waiver of attorney-client privilege. In the event any of the restrictions in this Section 6.07(e) shall apply, each party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such consents, waivers, decrees and approvals necessary to satisfy any confidentiality issues relating to documents prepared or held by third parties (including work papers), and the parties will use commercially reasonable efforts to make appropriate alternate disclosure arrangements, including adopting additional specific procedures to protect the confidentiality of sensitive material and to ensure compliance with applicable Laws.

Section 0.00.Xx Solicitation by Company; Superior Proposals.

(a)Subject to Section 6.08(b), Company shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and each of their respective officers, directors and employees not to, and will not authorize any investment bankers, financial advisors, attorneys, accountants, consultants, Affiliates or other agents of Company or any of Company’s Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company Representatives”) to, directly or indirectly: (i) initiate, solicit, knowingly induce or encourage, or knowingly take any action to facilitate the making of, any inquiry, offer or proposal which constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal; (ii) participate in any discussions or negotiations with any Person (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, the officers, directors, employees and advisors or Buyer) regarding any Acquisition Proposal (other than to notify such Person of the existence of the provisions of Section 6.08) or furnish, or otherwise afford access, to any Person (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, the officers, directors, employees and advisors or Buyer) any non-public information or data with respect to Company or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with an Acquisition Proposal; (iii) release any Person from, waive any provisions of, or fail to use its reasonable best efforts to enforce any confidentiality agreement or standstill agreement to which Company is a party; or (iv) enter into any agreement, agreement in principle or letter of intent with respect to any Acquisition Proposal or approve or resolve to approve any Acquisition Proposal or any agreement, agreement in principle or letter of intent relating to an Acquisition Proposal. Any violation of the foregoing restrictions by any of the Company Representatives, whether or not such Company Representative is so authorized and whether or not such Company Representative is purporting to act on behalf of Company or otherwise, shall be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement by Company. Company and its Subsidiaries shall, and shall cause each of the Company Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any and all existing discussions, negotiations, and communications with any Persons with respect to any existing or potential Acquisition Proposal. Company shall use its reasonable best efforts, subject to applicable Law, to, within ten (10) Business Days after the date hereof, request and confirm the return or destruction of any confidential information provided to any Person (other than Buyer and its Affiliates and its and their representatives) pursuant to any existing confidentiality, standstill or similar agreements to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is a party relating to an Acquisition Proposal.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Acquisition Proposal” shall mean any inquiry, offer or proposal (other than an inquiry, offer or proposal from Buyer), whether or not in writing, contemplating, relating to, or that could reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Transaction.

{Clients/1521/00383953.DOCX/7 }47

For purposes of this Agreement, “Acquisition Transaction” shall mean: (A) any transaction or series of transactions involving any merger, consolidation, recapitalization, share exchange, liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction involving Company or Bank that, in any such case, results in any Person (or, in the case of a direct merger between such third party and Company, Bank or any other Subsidiary of Company, the shareholders of such third party) acquiring 20% or more of any class of equity of Company or Bank; (B) any transaction pursuant to which any third party or group acquires or would acquire (whether through sale, lease or other disposition), directly or indirectly, 20% or more of the consolidated assets of Company or Bank; (C) any issuance, sale or other disposition of (including by way of merger, consolidation, share exchange or any similar transaction) securities (or options, rights or warrants to purchase or securities convertible into, such securities) representing 20% or more of the votes attached to the outstanding securities of Company or Bank; (D) any tender offer or exchange offer that, if consummated, would result in any third party or group beneficially owning 20% or more of any class of equity securities of Company or Bank; or (E) any transaction which is similar in form, substance or purpose to any of the foregoing transactions, or any combination of the foregoing.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Superior Proposal” means a bona fide, unsolicited written Acquisition Proposal (i) that if consummated would result in a third party (or, in the case of a direct merger between such third party and Company, Bank or any other Subsidiary of Company, the shareholders of such third party) acquiring, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock or more than 50% of the assets of Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, for consideration consisting of cash and/or securities and (ii) that Company Board reasonably determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside financial advisor and outside legal counsel, (A) is reasonably capable of being completed, taking into account all financial, legal, regulatory and other aspects of such proposal, including all conditions contained therein and the Person making such Acquisition Proposal, and (B) taking into account any changes to this Agreement proposed by Buyer in response to such Acquisition Proposal, as contemplated by paragraph (c) of this Section 6.08, and all financial, legal, regulatory and other aspects of such Acquisition Proposal, including all conditions contained therein and the Person making such proposal, is more favorable to the shareholders of Company from a financial point of view than the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b)Notwithstanding Section 6.08(a) or any other provision of this Agreement, prior to the date of the Company Meeting, if, but only if, (A) Company has after the date of this Agreement received a bona fide unsolicited written Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach of this Section 6.08, (B) the Company Board reasonably determines in good faith, after consultation with and having considered the advice of its outside financial advisor and outside legal counsel, that (1) such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal and (2) the failure to take such actions would reasonably be expected to violate its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, and (C) prior to furnishing or affording access to any information or data with respect to Company or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise relating to an Acquisition Proposal, Company receives from the Person making such Acquisition Proposal an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement (it being understood that nothing therein shall have the effect of a standstill provision), Company may take the actions described in clause (ii) of Section 6.08(a) solely with respect to such Acquisition Proposal. Company shall promptly provide to Buyer any non-public information regarding Company or its Subsidiaries provided to any other

{Clients/1521/00383953.DOCX/7 }48

Person which was not previously provided to Buyer, such additional information to be provided no later than the date of provision of such information to such other party.

(c)Company shall promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours orally) and within two (2) calendar days notify Buyer in writing if any proposals or offers are received by, any information is requested from, or any negotiations or discussions are sought to be initiated or continued with, Company or the Company Representatives, in each case in connection with any Acquisition Proposal, and such notice shall indicate the name of the Person initiating such discussions or negotiations or making such proposal, offer or information request and the material terms and conditions of any proposals or offers and, in the case of written materials relating to such proposal, offer, information request, negotiations or discussion, providing copies of such materials including e-mails or other electronic communications. Company agrees that it shall keep Buyer informed, on a reasonably current basis, of the status and terms of any such proposal, offer, information request, negotiations or discussions (including any amendments or modifications to such proposal, offer or request).

(d)Subject to Section 6.08(e), neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall (i) withhold, withdraw, change, qualify, amend or modify, or publicly propose to withdraw, change, qualify, amend or modify, in a manner adverse in any respect to the interest of Buyer, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Merger), or take any other action or make any other public statement inconsistent with, the Company Recommendation, fail to reaffirm the Company Recommendation within five (5) Business Days following a request by Buyer, or make any public statement, filing or release inconsistent with the Company Recommendation (it being understood that taking a neutral position or no position with respect to an Acquisition Proposal shall be considered an adverse modification of the Company Recommendation); or (ii) approve, recommend or endorse, or publicly propose to approve, recommend or endorse, any Acquisition Proposal; (iii) submit this Agreement to Company’s shareholders for approval without recommendation; (each of (i), (ii) or (iii) a “Company Subsequent Determination”); or (iv) enter into (or cause Company or any of its Subsidiaries to enter into) any letter of intent, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement or other agreement (A) related to any Acquisition Transaction (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement entered into in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.08(b)) or (B) requiring Company to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

(e)Notwithstanding Section 6.04 and Section 6.08(d), prior to the date of the Company Meeting, the Company Board may make a Company Subsequent Determination (although the Company Subsequent Determination will have no effect on any previously adopted resolutions of the Company Board except as expressly permitted by this paragraph) and/or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(h) after the fifth (5th) Business Day following Buyer’s receipt of a notice (the “Notice of Superior Proposal”) from Company advising Buyer that the Company Board has determined reasonably and in good faith, after consultation with and considering the advice of its outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, that a bona fide unsolicited written Acquisition Proposal that it received after the date of this Agreement (that did not result from a breach of this Section 6.08) constitutes a Superior Proposal if, but only if, (i) the Company Board has determined reasonably and in good faith, after consultation with and having considered the advice of outside legal counsel, that because of the existence of such Superior

{Clients/1521/00383953.DOCX/7 }49

Proposal the failure to take such actions would be reasonably likely to violate its fiduciary duties under applicable Law (it being understood that the initial determination under this clause (i) will not be considered a Company Subsequent Determination), (ii) during the five (5) Business Day period after receipt of the Notice of Superior Proposal by Buyer (the “Notice Period”), Company and the Company Board shall have cooperated and negotiated in good faith with Buyer to make such adjustments, modifications or amendments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement as would enable Company to proceed with the Company Recommendation without a Company Subsequent Determination; provided, however, that Buyer shall not have any obligation to propose any adjustments, modifications or amendments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and (iii) at the end of the Notice Period, after taking into account any such adjusted, modified or amended terms, if any, as may have been proposed by Buyer since its receipt of such Notice of Superior Proposal, the Company Board has again reasonably and in good faith, after consultation with and considering the advice of its outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, made the determination (A) in clause (i) of this Section 6.08(e) and (B) that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal. In the event of any material revisions to the Superior Proposal, Company shall be required to deliver a new Notice of Superior Proposal to Buyer and again comply with the requirements of this Section 6.08(e), except that the Notice Period shall be reduced to three (3) Business Days. Any Notice of Superior Proposal shall include a reasonably detailed description of the Acquisition Proposal subject thereto, including the latest material terms and conditions and the identity of the third party in such Acquisition Proposal (including an unredacted copy of all proposed agreements and other documents with respect to such Acquisition Proposal) or any amendment or supplement thereto.

Section 6.09.Indemnification.

(a)For a period of six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, and in any event subject to the provisions of Section 6.09(b), Buyer and its Subsidiaries shall indemnify and hold harmless the present and former directors and officers of Company and Bank and any person who becomes a director or office of Company or Bank before the Effective Time (the “Indemnified Parties”), against all costs or expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities or amounts that are paid in settlement (which settlement shall require the prior written consent of Buyer, which shall not be unreasonably withheld) incurred in connection with any actual or threatened claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative arising out of actions or omissions of such persons in the course of performing their duties for Company or Bank occurring at or before the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (each a “Claim”), to the fullest extent as such persons have the right to be indemnified pursuant to the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of Company in effect on the date of this Agreement and applicable Law and in connection with any such Claim promptly advance expenses from time to time as incurred, to the fullest extent as such persons have the right to expense advancement pursuant to the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of Company in effect on the date of this Agreement and applicable Law, provided, the person to whom expenses are advanced provides a reasonable and customary undertaking to repay such advances, if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification.

(b)Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under this Section 6.09 shall promptly notify Buyer upon learning of any Claim, provided that, failure to so notify

{Clients/1521/00383953.DOCX/7 }50

shall not affect the obligation of Buyer under this Section 6.09, unless, and only to the extent that, Buyer is materially prejudiced in the defense of such Claim as a consequence. In the event of any such Claim (whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time), (i) (A) Buyer shall have the right to assume the defense thereof and Buyer shall not be liable to such Indemnified Parties for any legal expenses or other counsel or any other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Parties in connection with the defense thereof, unless Buyer elects not to assume such defense or such Indemnified Party is advised in writing by counsel that the defense of such Indemnified Party by Buyer would create an actual or potential conflict of interest (in which case, Buyer shall not be obligated to reimburse or indemnify any Indemnified Party for the expenses of more than one such separate counsel for all Indemnified Parties, in addition to one local counsel in the jurisdiction where defense of any Claim has been or is to be asserted), and (B) the Indemnified Parties will cooperate in the defense of any such matter, (ii) (x) Buyer shall not be liable for any settlement effected without its prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and (y) Buyer shall not settle any Claim without such Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless in the case of this clause (y) such settlement does not provide for any additional monetary or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party and contains an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party for the matters to which such settlement relates and (iii) Buyer shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Party if such indemnification would be in violation of any applicable federal or state banking Laws or regulations, or in the event that a federal or state banking agency or a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that indemnification of an Indemnified Party in the manner contemplated hereby is prohibited by applicable Laws and regulations, whether or not related to banking Laws. All rights to indemnification in respect of any Claim asserted or made prior to the period ending six (6) years after the Effective Time shall continue until the final disposition of such Claim.

(c)For a period of six (6) years following the Effective Time, Buyer will maintain director’s and officer’s liability insurance that serves to reimburse the present and former officers and directors of Company or its Subsidiaries (determined as of the Effective Time) with respect to claims against such directors and officers arising from acts and omissions occurring before the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated hereby), which insurance will contain at least the same coverages and amounts.

(d)If Buyer or any of its successors and assigns (i) 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 (ii) shall transfer all or substantially all of its property and assets to any individual, corporation or other entity, then, in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Buyer and its Subsidiaries shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.09.

(e)These rights shall survive consummation of the Merger and are intended to benefit, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party. After the Effective Time, the obligations of Buyer and Xxxx Xxxxxx under this Section 6.09 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any Indemnified Party unless the affected Indemnified Party shall have consented in writing to such termination or modification.

{Clients/1521/00383953.DOCX/7 }51

(f)Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any of their respective directors, officers or other employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 6.09 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims under such policies.

Section 6.10Employees; Benefit Plans.

(a)Company and Bank agree, upon Buyer’s reasonable request, to facilitate discussions between Buyer and Company Employees a reasonable time in advance of the Closing Date regarding employment, consulting or other arrangements to be effective prior to or following the Effective Time. Prior to the Effective Time, any interaction between Buyer and Company Employees shall be coordinated with Company or Bank. Buyer shall honor the Company Benefit Plans in accordance with the terms of such Company Benefit Plans, except to the extent an alternative treatment is set forth in Section 6.10 of this Agreement.

(b)As of the Business Day prior to the Closing Date, if Buyer directs Company not later than ten (10) days prior to the Closing Date, Company shall take all action required to (i) cause any Company Benefit Plan that has liabilities in respect of its participants to be fully funded to the extent required under applicable Law, except the Buyer must give the Company adequate notice to terminate any plan subject to Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code and it is understood that such notice may be required more than ten (10) days prior to the Closing Date, (ii) terminate or merge any Company Benefit Plan, and (iii) Buyer acknowledges that any request made pursuant to this Section 6.10(b) will not impact or otherwise increase or decrease the calculation of the Merger Consideration. All resolutions, notices, or other documents issued, adopted or executed in connection with the implementation of the first sentence of this Section 6.10(b) shall be subject to Buyer’s reasonable prior review and approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and if Buyer does not respond to such request within five (5) Business Days, such request will be deemed approved.

(c)Buyer acknowledges that it does not currently maintain any Buyer Benefit Plans that are comparable to any Company Benefit Plan and that Buyer will not terminate, or request to terminate, any Company Benefit Plan unless there is a comparable Buyer Benefit Plan of general applicability (a “Buyer Benefit Plan”). Company Employees who are retained by Buyer (“Continuing Employees”) shall continue to participate in Company Benefit Plans until such time as Buyer, at Buyer’s sole discretion, implements a new comparable Buyer Benefit Plan. To the extent allowable under any Buyer Benefit Plans in which Company Employees participate, Company Employees shall be given credit for prior service or employment with Company or Bank (as well as service with any predecessor employer) for purposes of eligibility for and vesting of all benefits under such plans and for purposes of accruals or levels of severance, vacation pay, paid time off or similar benefits; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to the extent that it would result in any duplication of benefits. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer may amend or terminate any Buyer Benefit Plan at any time in its sole discretion.

(d)Buyer shall cause Buyer Benefit Plans in which Company Employees participate to (i) waive any pre-existing condition limitations, (ii) provide full credit under such plans for any deductible incurred by the employees and their beneficiaries under an analogous

{Clients/1521/00383953.DOCX/7 }52

Company Benefit Plan during the portion of the calendar year prior to such participation, and (iii) waive any waiting period limitation or evidence of insurability requirement which would otherwise be applicable to such employee on or after the Effective Time, in each case to the extent such employee had satisfied any similar limitation or requirement under an analogous Company Benefit Plan.

(e)Buyer intends to retain all Company Employees other than Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx, who has indicated that he intends to resign as of the Effective Time. Such Company Employees will be offered substantially similar salaries and job responsibilities as they have currently. Buyer also intends to offer new employment contracts to (i) Gerardina Mirtuono as President and Chief Operating Officer and (ii) Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxx as Chief Financial Officer, forms of which are included in Buyer Disclosure Schedule 6.10(e).

In the event that any one or more provisions of this Agreement shall for any reason be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, by any court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Agreement, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party, and the parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to substitute a valid, legal and enforceable provision which, insofar as practical, implements the purposes and intents of this Agreement.

disclosure for purposes of) the representations and warranties or covenants, as applicable, of the relevant party that are contained in the corresponding Section of this Agreement and any other representations, warranties or covenants of such party that are contained in this Agreement, but only if the relevance of that reference as an exception to (or a disclosure for purposes of) such representations, warranties and covenants would be reasonably apparent to a reasonable person who has read that reference and such representations, warranties or covenants without any independent knowledge on the part of the reader regarding the matter(s) so disclosed.
