PURCHASE AND ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT
This PURCHASE AND ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of February 18, 2015 between Banco Popular de Puerto Rico (“Seller”), and FirstBank Puerto Rico (“Purchaser”, together with Seller, the “Parties”).
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) is currently marketing FDIC Project 15001, a failed bank acquisition of Doral Bank (the “Failed Bank”), and has announced that February 19th, 2015 at 8:00 am CST is the bid acceptance deadline (the “Bid Acceptance Deadline”);
WHEREAS, the FDIC has provided a process whereby prospective bidders may establish an alliance to submit a bid (an “Alliance Bid”) through a lead bidder (the “Lead Bidder”) that encompasses assets or liabilities of the Failed Bank that such Lead Bidder intends to acquire and then subsequently transfer to a third-party member of the alliance (such third party, an “Alliance Bidder”);
WHEREAS, the Parties desire to make one or more Alliance Bids by the Bid Acceptance Deadline, with Seller serving as the Lead Bidder and party to the purchase and assumption agreement to be entered by and among Seller, the FDIC, in its capacity as Receiver (the “Receiver”) and the FDIC, acting in its corporate capacity (the “Corporation”) (the “Primary P&A Agreement”), and with Purchaser serving as an Alliance Bidder;
WHEREAS, the Parties entered into an alliance agreement, dated as of February 18, 2015, by and between the Parties (the “Alliance Agreement”) and agreed to work in good faith to enter into this Agreement as promptly as practical after the date of the Alliance Agreement;
WHEREAS, if an Alliance Bid is accepted by the FDIC, Seller, in its capacity as the Lead Bidder, will purchase certain assets and assume certain liabilities of the Failed Bank upon the terms and conditions to be set forth in the Primary P&A Agreement, including certain assets and liabilities associated with the branches of the Failed Bank set forth in Exhibit 1 (the “Transferred Branches”); and
WHEREAS, Purchaser, as an Alliance Bidder, desires to purchase from Seller, and Seller, as the Lead Bidder, desires to sell to Purchaser, the Transferred Assets, and Purchaser, as an Alliance Bidder, desires to assume from Seller, and Seller, as the Lead Bidder, desires to have Purchaser assume, the Assumed Liabilities (including the Transferred Deposits) (each as defined herein), in each case upon the terms and conditions set forth herein;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, Seller and Purchaser agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
TRANSFER OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES; INTENT OF THE PARTIES
Section 1.1. Transferred Assets.
(a) As of the Effective Time and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, Seller will sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Purchaser, and Purchaser will purchase from Seller on the terms set forth herein, all of the rights, title and interest of Seller in the following assets, only to the extent such assets are transferred to Seller under the Primary P&A Agreement or the FDIC agrees to transfer any such assets directly to Purchaser and subject to all liabilities for indebtedness collateralized by “Liens” (as defined in the Primary P&A Agreement) affecting such assets (if any) to the extent provided in Section 2.1 of the Primary P&A Agreement other than liabilities for borrowings from, and obligations and indebtedness to, Federal Reserve Banks and Federal Home Loan Banks (if any) (collectively, the “Transferred Assets”):
(1) the rights set out in Section 7.6 of this Agreement with respect to:
(A) all real estate and improvements thereon of the Transferred Branches that are owned by the Failed Bank (the “Owned Bank Premises”), all of which Owned Bank Premises are listed on Exhibit 1.1(a)(1)(A);
(B) all leases under which land and/or buildings used as Transferred Branches that are leased by the Failed Bank as of the Closing Date and which Seller has an option to assume under the Primary P&A Agreement (the “Leased Bank Premises”, and together with the Owned Bank Premises, the “Bank Premises”), all of which Leased Bank Premises are listed on Exhibit 1.1(a)(1)(B);
(C) furniture, fixtures, leasehold improvements, equipment and other tangible personal property located at the Transferred Branches (but only to the extent that they are located at the Transferred Branches), including “Specialty Assets” but excluding “Leased Data Management Equipment” (each as defined in the Primary P&A Agreement) (collectively, the “Personal Property”); and
(D) leases of Personal Property located at the Transferred Branches;
(2) the rights set out in Section 7.7 of this Agreement with respect to those operating contracts under which goods or services are provided at the Transferred Branches, but excluding (A) all contracts that do not apply solely to the Transferred Branches but also apply to other branches or operations of the Failed Bank, and (B) all data processing contracts, regardless of scope (subject, in each case, to such exclusions, the “Assignable Contracts”);
-2-
(3) all safe deposit contracts and leases for the safe deposit boxes located at the Transferred Branches (the “Safe Deposit Contracts”), if any;
(4) all securities and other items held at the Transferred Branches in safekeeping for customers of the Failed Bank (the “Safekeeping Assets”), if any;
(5) the loans set forth below:
(A) overdrafts of customers (including but not limited to overdrafts made pursuant to an overdraft protection plan or similar extension of credit) in connection with the Transferred Deposits (the “Overdraft Loans”);
(B) “Deposit Secured Loans” (as defined in the Primary P&A Agreement) that are fully secured by the Transferred Deposits; and
(C) all loans in “Optional Loan Pool 30” (as defined in the document attached as Annex A to Exhibit 1.1(a)(5)(C) (“Final Project 15001 Loan Pools as of 12/31/14”) (“SFR Loans” and, together with the Overdraft Loans and Deposit Secured Loans, the “Transferred Loans”);
(6) all coins and currency located at the Transferred Branches as of the Effective Time (the “Coins and Currency”);
(7) any such Bank Premises, Personal Property or Assignable Contracts that are acquired by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement; and
(8) “Failed Bank Records” (as defined in the Primary P&A Agreement) relating to the Transferred Assets, subject to Section 7.19 of this Agreement.
(b) The Parties understand and agree that Purchaser is purchasing only the assets specified in this Agreement and only to the extent Seller obtains such assets under the Primary P&A Agreement or the FDIC agrees to transfer any such assets directly to Purchaser. Purchaser shall have no interest in or right to any other assets (the “Excluded Assets”).
Section 1.2. Assumed Liabilities.
(a) From and after the Effective Time, Purchaser will assume, and will pay, perform and discharge as they become due, all of the following (collectively the “Assumed Liabilities”):
(1) all liabilities, duties and obligations related to the “Assumed Deposits” (as defined in the Primary P&A Agreement) that were transferred to Seller under the Primary P&A Agreement that (A) are booked at the Transferred Branches or (B) are (i) non-brokered certificate of deposits or (ii) Assumed Deposits in individual retirement accounts (the “XXX Accounts”), in each of the cases of clauses (A) and (B), which were booked at the Transferred Branches as of September 30, 2014 to the extent such deposits remain outstanding as of the
-3-
Effective Time, in each of the cases of clauses (A) and (B), including accrued but unpaid or uncredited interest thereon (collectively, the “Transferred Deposits”). For informational purposes only, a list of the amounts of Assumed Deposits associated with the Transferred Branches as of December 31, 2014 based upon the information provided by the FDIC is attached as Exhibit 1.2(a)(1);
(2) all of the liabilities, duties and obligations of Seller existing or required to be performed from and after the Effective Time under the Primary P&A Agreement with respect to the Transferred Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or the Transferred Branches (the “FDIC Obligations”);
(3) all liabilities, duties and obligations relating to the Transferred Branch Employees to the extent that Seller is responsible for those liabilities, duties and obligations under the Primary P&A;
(4) all liabilities, duties and obligations for Taxes relating to the Transferred Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or the Transferred Branches to the extent that Seller is responsible for those liabilities, duties and obligations under the Primary P&A, including, but not limited to, all liabilities, duties and obligations for Taxes set forth in Section 7.25 of this Agreement; and
(5) all other liabilities, duties and obligations of any nature whatsoever, whether accrued or unaccrued, primary or secondary, contingent or non-contingent, direct or indirect, asserted or unasserted, known or unknown, relating to the Transferred Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or the Transferred Branches to the extent that Seller is responsible for those liabilities, duties and obligations under the Primary P&A (including all accrued interest and fees relating to the Transferred Deposits), except for liabilities, duties or obligations of any nature whatsoever that have been created or have resulted from the actions or inactions of Seller.
(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is not the intention of the Parties that the assumption by Purchaser of the Assumed Liabilities shall in any way enlarge the rights of any third parties relating thereto. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent either Party hereto from contesting matters relating to the Assumed Liabilities with any third-party obligee. The Parties understand and agree that Purchaser is assuming only those liabilities, duties and obligations set forth in Section 1.2(a) of this Agreement above and Purchaser shall have no liability, duty or obligation of any kind except to the extent expressly set forth above. Under no circumstances will Purchaser have any liability, duty or obligation in connection with any of the Excluded Assets.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any XXX Account that requires consent to transfer will remain with Seller until such time as all required consents have been obtained. From and after the Effective Time, Purchaser and Seller will use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any such consents. Seller and Purchaser will use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other in taking any action necessary to accomplish either the appointment of Purchaser as successor custodian or the delegation to Purchaser of Seller’s authority and responsibility as custodian of such XXX Accounts (other than XXX Accounts that are self-directed).
-4-
Section 1.3. Intention of the Parties.
(a) It is the express intention of the Parties that this Agreement replicate, in all ways possible, a direct purchase of the Transferred Assets and assumption of the Assumed Liabilities by Purchaser from the Receiver. Seller’s role in this Agreement is intended to be a pass-through to synthetically recreate, by contract, the terms of such a direct purchase and assumption. Accordingly, this Agreement shall be interpreted, and the Parties agree to cooperate to take all steps necessary, to effectuate this intention.
(b) Certain provisions of this Agreement rely on Seller being able to exercise certain rights under the Primary P&A Agreement on behalf of Purchaser. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (1) the Receiver may not permit such actions or may require additional agreements or undertakings from the Parties prior to permitting such actions and (2) whenever possible, the Parties agree to work with the Receiver to permit Purchaser to interface directly with the Receiver and exercise any rights directly without the involvement of Seller. The Parties acknowledge and agree that to the extent that the Receiver does not permit Purchaser to interface directly with the Receiver and exercise rights relating to the Transferred Assets and the Assumed Liabilities in a manner that allows Purchaser to exercise all rights to the Transferred Assets and the Assumed Liabilities that Seller has with respect to such Transferred Assets and Assumed Liabilities as a party to the Primary P&A Agreement, Seller and Purchaser will cooperate to allow Purchaser to exercise such rights as if Purchaser had the rights of Seller under Primary P&A Agreement, to the extent possible. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser and Seller will use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any consents from any third party that are required in order for Purchaser to obtain the benefits provided for in this Agreement, including all right, title and interest to the Transferred Assets. The Parties acknowledge and agree that any costs incurred by Seller in the exercise of any rights by or on behalf of Purchaser shall be reimbursed by Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.6 of this Agreement.
ARTICLE II
BID SUBMISSION, EFFECTIVE TIME AND CLOSING
Section 2.1. Bid Submission. Purchaser and Seller agree that, unless this Agreement is terminated prior to the Bid Acceptance Deadline, Seller shall submit one or more Alliance Bids to the Receiver by the Bid Acceptance Deadline, with Seller serving as the Lead Bidder and Purchaser serving as an Alliance Bidder. Seller will coordinate with Purchaser the submission of any Alliance Bid and will keep Purchaser reasonably apprised in a timely manner of the status of the Alliance Bid(s) and any communications to or from the FDIC relating to the Transferred Assets, Assumed Deposits or Transferred Branches. The Parties will cooperate with each other in connection with responding to any communication from the FDIC relating to the Transferred Assets, Assumed Deposits or Transferred Branches, including, without limitation, any subsequent rounds of bidding or requests for a “best and final” bid by the FDIC, if any. Any modifications to any Alliance Bid that may affect the rights or obligations of Purchaser as set forth in this Agreement must be mutually agreed between the Parties in writing, and in the absence thereof, the then-current Alliance Bid shall remain in effect.
-5-
Section 2.2. Effective Time. Subject to the submission of an Alliance Bid set forth in Section 2.1 of this Agreement and the acceptance of an Alliance Bid by the Receiver, the purchase of the Transferred Assets and assumption of the Assumed Liabilities provided for in this Agreement shall occur at closing (the “Closing”). Purchaser and Seller both agree that the Closing will be consummated on the same day as the “Bank Closing Date” (as defined in the Primary P&A Agreement) subject to the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions set forth in Article VIII and Article IX (excluding any such conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions) (the “Closing Date”). The effective time (the “Effective Time”) shall be 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Business Day” shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Primary P&A Agreement, and the term “day” shall mean calendar day.
Section 2.3. Closing.

(b) At the Closing, subject to all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Purchaser (it being understood that the items listed in subsections (b)(1) and (b)(2) shall be transferred by Seller promptly upon the receipt of such items by Seller from the Receiver or at such later time as provided in Section 7.19 of this Agreement, which may be after the Closing):
(1) keys to the safe deposit boxes and copies of all other records in the possession of Seller related to the Safe Deposit Box Business and the Safekeeping Business;

(2) a certificate and receipt acknowledging the delivery and receipt of possession of the property and records referred to in this Agreement;

The Parties agree that, from time to time, whether before, on or after the Closing Date, each of them will execute and deliver such further instruments of assignments and directions for conveyance and transfer and take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement, including such further actions as are required under Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 of the Primary P&A Agreement.

Section 4.3. Claims for Indemnity.
(a) A claim for indemnity shall be made by the claiming Party by the giving of written notice thereof to the other Party. Such written notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis upon which such claim for indemnity is made.
(b) In the event that any person or entity not a Party hereto (including the Receiver and the Corporation) shall make any demand or claim or file or threaten to file any lawsuit, which demand, claim or lawsuit could result in any Loss to a Party hereto of the kind for which such Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 4.1 or Section 4.2 of this Agreement, such indemnified Party shall notify the indemnifying Party of such demand, claim or lawsuit in writing within fifteen (15) days of such demand, claim, filing or threat specifying in reasonable detail the source of the Loss or potential Loss; provided, however, that any failure by the indemnified Party to so notify the indemnifying Party shall not relieve the indemnifying Party from its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced by such failure to be given such notice. Following receipt of notice of a demand, claim or lawsuit, the indemnifying Party shall have the option, at its cost and expense, to assume the defense of such matter and to retain counsel (not reasonably objected to by the indemnified Party) to defend any such demand, claim or lawsuit, and the indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the indemnified Party for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses (except as expressly provided to the contrary herein) with respect to the defense of such claim or litigation, other than reasonable fees and expenses of counsel employed by the indemnified Party for any period during which the indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense thereof. If the indemnifying Party elects to defend, compromise or settle such demand, claim or lawsuit, the indemnified Party shall cooperate in the defense against, or compromise or settlement of, such demand, claim or lawsuit, including making available to the indemnifying Party any personnel or any books, records or other documents within its control that are reasonably necessary or appropriate for such defense. The indemnified Party shall have the option of participating in (but not controlling) the
-12-
defense of such demand, claim or lawsuit with counsel reasonably acceptable to the indemnifying Party (which shall be at the cost and expense of the indemnified Party unless (1) counsel to the indemnified Party reasonably determines, based on the advice of counsel, that joint representation would be inappropriate due to a conflict of interest or the availability of material defenses not available to the indemnifying Party or (2) the indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense of such demand, claim or lawsuit within a reasonable period of time following written notice thereof), and counsel for each Party shall, to the extent consistent with its professional responsibilities, cooperate with the other Party and any counsel designated by that Party. In effecting the settlement of any such demand, claim or lawsuit, the indemnifying Party or the indemnified Party, as the case may be, shall act in good faith and shall enter into only such settlement as the other Party shall consent to, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that an indemnifying Party may enter into a settlement without the consent of an indemnified Party so long as such settlement contains an unconditional release of such indemnified Party from all liabilities arising out of such demand, claim or lawsuit and does not include any admission of fault by the indemnified Party. An indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement not made in accordance with the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if the indemnifying Party disputes its potential liability to the indemnified Party under Section 4.3 of this Agreement and if such dispute is resolved in favor of the indemnifying Party, then the indemnified Party shall not be required to bear the costs and expenses of the indemnified Party’s defense pursuant to Section 4.3 of this Agreement.
Section 4.4. Treatment of Indemnification Payments. Seller and Purchaser agree to treat any indemnification payment under this Article IV as an adjustment of the consideration paid for the Transferred Assets for income Tax purposes.
