All payments received by Seller on account of the Loans after the Calculation Date shall belong to Buyer.

     2.4. Adjustments to Purchase Price; Offsets Against Deposits.
 
          (a) On or before the Settlement Date, Seller shall provide Buyer with a statement(s) setting forth adjustments to the Purchase Price that Buyer or Seller discovers reflecting (1) any changes in the Book Value (i) because of miscalculations, misapplied payments, unapplied payments, unrecorded Disbursements of Principal disbursed on or before the Calculation Date, or other accounting errors; or (ii) resulting from a final court decree, unappealable regulatory enforcement order or other similar action of a legal or regulatory nature effective on or before the Calculation Date; and (2) any unreimbursed Advances or Disbursements of Principal disbursed after the Calculation Date that were not previously included in the Purchase Price. No adjustment to Purchase Price will be made for any changes resulting from any calculation or adjustment of interest on any Loan as provided in Section 6.4 hereof. Any monies due Buyer or Seller as a result of any adjustments made pursuant to Section 2.4(a)(1) hereof will be calculated by multiplying the resulting net change in Book Value by the Bid Percentage. Any monies due Seller as a result of any adjustments made pursuant to Section 2.4(a)(2) will be equal to 100% of the aggregate amount of payments not previously included in the Purchase Price. The total aggregate amount owed to Seller shall be subtracted from the total aggregate amount owed to Buyer. If the resulting amount is a positive number, Seller shall pay such amount to Buyer, and if the resulting amount is a negative number, Buyer shall pay such amount to Seller as if such number were a positive number. Any monies due Buyer or Seller will be paid no later than ten (10) Business Days after the Settlement Date. Buyer shall adjust its servicing records to reflect any changes to the unpaid principal balance of any Loan made pursuant to this Section 2.4(a).
 
          (b) With respect to any Loan, Seller reserves the right to permit or require offsets against deposit accounts of the Failed Bank. If allowed by Seller, such offsets will be retroactive to the date such Failed Bank closed. At such time as an offset is effected, Seller will give notice of such to Buyer and pay Buyer the amount of the offset on a dollar-for-dollar basis and Buyer shall credit such amount to the Loan according to the terms and conditions of the applicable Note(s) as of the Bank Closing Date.

     2.5. Rebates and Refunds. Buyer is not entitled to any rebates or refunds from Seller from any pre-computed interest Loan regardless of when the Note matures. Further, on precomputed interest Loans, Seller will not refund any unearned discount amounts to Buyer.
 
     2.6. Interest Conveyed. Seller shall convey all of its right, title and interest in and to each Loan. In the event a foreclosure occurs after the Calculation Date, or occurred on or before the Calculation Date, but the Redemption Period had not expired on or before the Calculation Date, Seller shall convey to Buyer the Deficiency Balance, if any, together with the net proceeds, if any, of such foreclosure sale. If Seller was the purchaser at such foreclosure sale, Seller shall convey to Buyer the Deficiency Balance, if any, together with a quitclaim deed to the property purchased at such foreclosure sale. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that Buyer shall not acquire any interest in or to any performance or completion bond filed with any governmental entity for the purpose of ensuring that improvements constructed or to be constructed on such property are completed in accordance with any governmental regulation(s) or building requirement(s) applicable to the proposed or completed improvement.
 
     2.7. Retained Claims and Release. Buyer and Seller agree that the sale of the Loans pursuant to this Agreement will exclude the transfer to Buyer of all right, title and interest of Seller in and to any and all claims of any nature whatsoever that might now exist or hereafter arise, whether known or unknown, that Seller has or might have (a) against officers, directors, employees, insiders, accountants, attorneys, other persons employed by Seller or the Failed Bank and any of its predecessors, underwriters or any other similar persons who have caused a loss to Seller or the Failed Bank and any of its predecessors in connection with the initiation, origination or administration of a Loan, (b) against any appraisers, accountants, auditors, attorneys, investment bankers or brokers, loan brokers, deposit brokers, securities dealers or other professional individuals or entities who performed services for the Seller or the Failed Bank or any of its predecessors, relative to a Loan, (c) against any third parties involved in any alleged fraud or other misconduct relating to the making or servicing of a Loan or (d) against any appraiser or other party from whom Seller or any servicing agent contracted for services or title insurance in connection with the making, insuring or servicing of a Loan.
 
     2.8. Taxes. Notwithstanding that Taxes may, under applicable law, be assessed against and payable by Seller, Buyer hereby agrees to accept responsibility for and to pay, on its own behalf or on behalf of Seller, as the case may be, any and all Taxes, and Seller shall have no obligation to reimburse Buyer therefor. Payment of Taxes shall not affect the Purchase Price. Within thirty days after the Loan Sale Closing Date, Buyer shall deliver to Seller a Tax Certificate in accordance with Section 3.1 hereof. In the event that the Tax Certificate shall prove to have been incorrect or for any other reason Buyer becomes aware of Taxes due, Buyer shall promptly notify Seller and shall pay such Taxes in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.8. In the event that Taxes shall be payable, Buyer shall make payment thereof to the relevant taxing authorities when due, identifying to such authorities in appropriate manner and in accordance with applicable law the nature of the payment and identifying the party on whose behalf the payment is being made. In the event that, under applicable law, Buyer shall be unable to make payment of Taxes on behalf of Seller, then Buyer shall promptly notify Seller thereof and Seller may, at its sole option, grant to Buyer a limited power of attorney, in such form as Seller shall determine, solely for the purpose of making payment of such Taxes and filing information returns with respect thereto as agent for Seller. Buyer shall notify Seller, in accordance with the provisions of Article VIII of this Agreement, promptly after payment of any Taxes that such payment has been made.

The obligations of the parties to this Agreement are subject to Seller and the Corporation having received at or before the Bank Closing Date evidence reasonably satisfactory to each of any necessary approval, waiver, or other action by any governmental authority, the board of directors of the Buyer, or other third party, with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, of the closing of the Failed Bank and the appointment of Seller, the chartering of the Buyer, and any agreements, documents, matters or proceedings contemplated hereby or thereby.
 
Article X
Miscellaneous Provisions
 
     10.1. Severability. Each part of this Agreement is intended to be severable. If any term, covenant, condition or provision hereof is unlawful, invalid or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining parts of this Agreement and all such remaining parts hereof shall be valid and enforceable and have full force and effect as if the invalid or unenforceable part had not been included.
 
     10.2. Construction. Unless the context otherwise requires, singular nouns and pronouns when used herein, shall be deemed to include the plural and vice versa and impersonal pronouns shall be deemed to include the personal pronoun of the appropriate gender.
 
     10.3. Survival. Each and every covenant made by Buyer or Seller in this Agreement shall survive the Closing and shall not merge into the closing documents, but instead shall be independently enforceable.
 
     10.4. Governing Law. Federal law of the United States shall control this Agreement. To the extent that federal law does not supply a rule of decision, this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. Nothing in this Agreement will require any unlawful action or inaction by either party.
 
     10.5. Cost, Fees and Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, each party hereto agrees to pay all costs, fees and expenses which it has incurred in connection with or incidental to the matters contained in this Agreement, including without limitation any fees and disbursements to its accountants and counsel; provided that Buyer shall pay all fees, costs and expenses (other than attorneys' fees incurred by Seller) incurred in connection with the transfer to it of any Loan hereunder.
 
     10.6. Nonwaiver, Amendment and Assignment. No provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived except in writing executed by all of the parties to this Agreement. This Agreement and the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions, obligations, undertakings, rights and benefits hereof, including the Attachments to this Agreement, shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of the undersigned parties and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, representatives, successors and assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may not be transferred or assigned without the express prior written consent of Seller (and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be void).

     10.8. Controlling Agreement. Seller and Buyer hereby acknowledge and agree that this Agreement shall in all instances be the controlling document with respect to the terms of the sale and transfer of the Loans, Collateral Documents and Collateral, and the assignment and assumption of all obligations thereunder, except in the event of a conflict with the Shared-Loss Agreements, in which case, the terms of the Shared Loss Agreements shall control. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any other document or instrument (other than the Shared-Loss Agreements) executed in connection herewith and with the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, any translation into a foreign language of this Agreement, any Collateral Document, or any other document or instrument executed in connection herewith which is prepared for notarization, filing or any other purpose, the terms of this Agreement shall control. Furthermore, with the exception of the Shared Loss Agreements, the terms of this Agreement shall in no way be or be deemed to be amended, modified or otherwise affected in any manner by the terms of such other document or instrument.
 
     10.9. Venue.
