      1. FOFC's shareholders shall have the following choices in connection with the exchange of their FOFC Common Stock pursuant to the Merger:
        1. At the option of each holder of FOFC Common Stock, all of such holder's FOFC Common Stock shall be converted into the right to receive the number of shares of CFC Common Stock that is equal to the number of shares of FOFC Common Stock held by such holder times the Exchange Ratio (the "All Stock Election"), provided that:
          1. Fractional shares will not be issued and cash, payable by check, will be paid in lieu thereof; and
          2. After giving effect to Section 2.4(a)(i),(ii) and (iii), in no event shall, in the aggregate, more than seventy five percent (75%) of FOFC Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time be converted into and become shares of CFC Common Stock; or
        2. At the option of each holder of FOFC Common Stock, all of such holder's FOFC Common Stock shall be converted into the right to receive cash, payable by check, in an amount equal to the number of shares of FOFC Common Stock held by such holder times $7.50 (the "All Cash Election"), provided that:
          1. After giving effect to Section 2.4(a)(i),(ii) and (iii), in no event shall, in the aggregate, more than twenty five percent (25%) of FOFC Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time be either Dissenting Shares or be converted into and become cash; or
        3. At the option of each holder of FOFC Common Stock, seventy five percent (75%) of such holder's aggregate number of shares of FOFC Common Stock (the "Stock Portion") shall be converted into the right to receive such number of shares of CFC Common Stock equal to the number of shares of FOFC Common Stock in the Stock Portion times the Exchange Ratio, and twenty five percent (25%) of such holder's aggregate number of shares of FOFC Common Stock (the "Cash Portion") shall be converted into the right to receive cash, payable by check, in an amount equal to the number of shares of FOFC Common Stock in the Cash Portion times $7.50 (the "Mixed Election"), provided that:
          1. Fractional shares will not be issued and cash, payable by check, will be paid in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.4; and
          2. After giving effect to Section 2.4(a)(i),(ii) and (iii), in no event shall, in the aggregate, more than seventy five percent (75%) of FOFC Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time be converted into and become shares of CFC Common Stock;
          3. After giving effect to Section 2.4(a)(i),(ii) and (iii), in no event shall, in the aggregate, more than twenty five percent (25%) of FOFC Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time be either Dissenting Shares or be converted into and become cash; or
      2. If no election is validly made by a holder by the Election Deadline pursuant to Section 2.4(c), all of such holder's shares of FOFC Common Stock shall be converted into the right to receive CFC Common Stock as set forth in Section 2.4(a)(i), cash as set forth in Section 2.4(a)(ii), or any combination of CFC Common Stock and cash as determined by CFC; provided, however, that no fractional shares shall be issued and cash will be paid in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.4(h). Such shares of FOFC Common Stock shall be allocated by CFC on a pro rata basis among non-electing holders based upon the number of shares of FOFC Common Stock for which an election has not been received by the Election Deadline in order to achieve the overall ratio of seventy five percent (75%) of FOFC Common Stock to be converted into CFC Common Stock and twenty five percent (25%) of FOFC Common Stock to be converted into cash after taking into account Dissenting Shares. Notice of such allocation shall be provided promptly to each holder whose shares of FOFC Common Stock are allocated pursuant to this Section 2.4(b).
      3. An election form and other appropriate transmittal materials in such form as the parties shall mutually agree (the "Election Form") shall be mailed to shareholders of FOFC prior to the Election Period. The "Election Period" shall be the period of time to which the parties shall agree, within which FOFC shareholders may validly elect the form of Merger Consideration set forth in Section 2.4(a) (the "Election") that they will receive, occurring between: (i) the date of the mailing of the Joint Proxy Statement-Prospectus for the special meeting of shareholders of FOFC at which this Agreement and the Merger is presented for approval; and (ii) the Closing Date. The "Election Deadline" shall be the time, specified by CFC after consultation with FOFC, at close of business local time on the last day of the Election Period. An Election shall be considered to have been validly made by a holder of FOFC Common Stock only if: (i) the Exchange Agent shall have received an Election Form properly completed and executed by such holder, accompanied by a certificate or certificates representing the shares of FOFC Common Stock as to which such Election is being made, duly endorsed in blank or otherwise in form acceptable for transfer on the books of FOFC, or containing an appropriate guaranty of delivery in the form customarily used in transactions of this nature from a member of a national securities exchange or a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States; and (ii) such Election Form and such certificate(s) or such guaranty of delivery shall have been received by the Exchange Agent prior to the Election Deadline.
      4. Any holder of FOFC Common Stock may at any time prior to the Election Deadline revoke an election and either: (i) submit a new Election Form in accordance with the procedures in Section 2.4(c); or (ii) withdraw the certificate(s) for FOFC Common Stock deposited therewith by providing written notice that is received by the Exchange Agent by 5:00 p.m., local time for the Exchange Agent, on the business day prior to the Election Deadline. In the event of the termination of this Agreement, the Exchange Agent shall return any certificates deposited by the holder of FOFC Common Stock to such holder at the address and to the Person set forth in the Election Form.
      5. If more than twenty five percent (25%) of the total number of shares of FOFC Common Stock issued and outstanding constitute Dissenting Shares or, at the Election Deadline, have been deposited for exchange with cash pursuant to the All Cash Election or the Mixed Election and not withdrawn pursuant to Section 2.4(d), CFC will cause to be eliminated by the Exchange Agent, from the shares deposited pursuant to the All Cash Election, subject to the limitations described in Section 2.4(e)(iv), a sufficient number of such shares so that the total number of shares remaining on deposit for exchange into cash pursuant to the All Cash Election and the Mixed Election, when added to the number of Dissenting Shares, does not exceed twenty five percent (25%) of the shares of FOFC Common Stock issued and outstanding on the Election Deadline. The holders of FOFC Common Stock who have made the Mixed Election shall not be required to have more than seventy five percent (75%) of their shares of FOFC Common Stock converted into CFC Common Stock. After giving effect to Section 2.4(b), such elimination will be effected as follows:
        1. Subject to the limitations described in Section 2.4(e)(iv), CFC will eliminate or cause to be eliminated from the shares deposited pursuant to the All Cash Election, and will add or cause to be added to the shares deposited for CFC Common Stock pursuant to the All Stock Election, on a pro rata basis in relation to the total number of shares deposited pursuant to the All Cash Election minus the number of shares so deposited by the holders described in Section 2.4(e)(iv), such number of whole shares of FOFC Common Stock on deposit for cash pursuant to the All Cash Election as may be necessary so that the total number of shares remaining on deposit for cash pursuant to All Cash Election or the Mixed Election, when added to the number of Dissenting Shares, is equal, as nearly as practicable, to twenty five percent (25%) of the shares of FOFC Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time;
        2. All shares of FOFC Common Stock that are eliminated pursuant to Section 2.4(e)(iv) from the shares deposited for cash pursuant to All Cash Election shall be converted into CFC Common Stock as provided by Section 2.4(a)(i);
        3. Notice of such allocation shall be provided promptly to each holder whose shares of FOFC Common Stock are eliminated from the shares on deposit for exchange with cash pursuant to Section 2.4(e)(i); and
        4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the holders of one hundred (100) or fewer shares of FOFC Common Stock of record on the date of this Agreement who have elected the All Cash Election shall not be required to have any of their shares of FOFC Common Stock converted into CFC Common Stock.
      6. If fewer than twenty five percent (25%) of the total number of shares of FOFC Common Stock issued and outstanding have, at the Election Deadline, been deposited for cash pursuant to the All Cash Election or the Mixed Election and not withdrawn pursuant to Section 2.4(d), CFC will promptly add, or cause to be added by the Exchange Agent, to such deposited shares, a sufficient number of shares of FOFC Common Stock deposited for shares of CFC Common Stock pursuant to the All Stock Election so that the total number of shares of FOFC Common Stock on deposit for cash pursuant to the All Cash Election or the Mixed Election immediately prior to the Effective Time, when added to the number of Dissenting Shares, is not less than twenty five percent (25%) of the shares of FOFC Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. The holders of FOFC Common Stock who have elected to have their shares converted pursuant to the Mixed Election shall not be required to have more than twenty five percent (25%) of their shares of FOFC Common Stock converted into cash. After giving effect to Section 2.4(b), such addition will be effected as follows:
        1. CFC will cause to be added to the shares deposited for cash pursuant to the All Cash Election or the Mixed Election, and will eliminate or cause to be eliminated from the shares deposited for CFC Common Stock pursuant to the All Stock Election, on a pro rata basis in relation to the total number of shares of FOFC Common Stock deposited for shares of CFC Common Stock pursuant to the All Stock Election, such number of whole shares of FOFC Common Stock not then on deposit for cash as may be necessary so that the number of shares remaining on deposit for exchange with cash, when added to the number of Dissenting Shares, is equal, as nearly as practicable, to twenty five percent (25%) of the shares of FOFC Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time;
        2. All shares of FOFC Common Stock that are added pursuant to Section 2.4(f)(i) to the shares deposited for cash shall be converted into cash as provided by Section 2.4(a)(ii); and
        3. Notice of such allocation shall be provided promptly to each holder whose shares of FOFC Common Stock are added to the shares on deposit for cash pursuant to Section 2.4(f).
      7. If, subsequent to the date of this Agreement but prior to the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of CFC Common Stock or FOFC Common Stock shall be increased, decreased, changed into or exchanged for a different number of shares, in each case by reason of any stock split, recapitalization, or other similar change, the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted proportionately.
      8. No certificates or scrip representing less than one share of CFC Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of a certificate or certificates which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of FOFC Common Stock. In lieu of any such fractional share, each holder of such shares who would otherwise have been entitled to a fraction of a share of CFC Common Stock, upon surrender of certificates representing shares of FOFC Common Stock for exchange, shall be paid upon such surrender cash (without interest) in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Closing Price.
    9. Adjustment to Merger Consideration.
    10. The Merger Consideration shall be subject to adjustment as provided in this Section 2.5. As determined on the Closing Date, if the FOFC Delinquent Loans at the end of the month immediately preceding the Closing are: (i) less than $6.5 million, the Exchange Ratio shall be 0.3571 and the cash component of the Merger Consideration shall be $7.50; (ii) $6.5 million or greater, but less than $8.5 million, the Exchange Ratio shall be 0.3524 and the cash component of the Merger Consideration shall be $7.40; (iii) $8.5 million or greater, but less than $10.5 million, the Exchange Ratio shall be 0.3476 and the cash component of the Merger Consideration shall be $7.30; or (iv) $10.5 million or greater, CFC may at its election (A) terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.1(h); or (B) proceed with the transaction in which event the Exchange Ratio shall be 0.3429 and the cash component of the Merger Consideration shall be $7.20.

    11. Exchange Procedures.
      1. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, CFC shall reserve for issuance and cause to be deposited with American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the "Exchange Agent"), for exchange in accordance with this Article II, certificates representing the aggregate number of shares of CFC Common Stock and cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, into which the outstanding shares of FOFC Common Stock shall be converted pursuant to Section 2.4. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, CFC shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to all holders of record of FOFC Common Stock, excluding any holders of Dissenting Shares, letters of transmittal specifying the procedures for delivery of such holders' certificates formerly representing FOFC Common Stock to the Exchange Agent in exchange for new certificates of CFC Common Stock and cash in lieu of fractional shares issuable pursuant to this Article II. A letter of transmittal will be deemed properly completed only if accompanied by certificates representing all shares of FOFC Common Stock to be converted thereby.
      2. As soon as practicable, after surrender to the Exchange Agent of the certificates of FOFC Common Stock in accordance with the instructions of the letter of transmittal, the Exchange Agent shall distribute to the former holders of shares of FOFC Common Stock a certificate representing the number of shares of CFC Common Stock, and a check for cash payable in the Merger (including cash in lieu of fractional shares, if any), that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to this Agreement. In no event shall the holder of any such surrendered certificates be entitled to receive interest on any stock or cash to be received in the Merger. If any certificate surrendered for exchange is to be issued in a name other than that in which the surrendered certificate is issued, the certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer and the Person requesting such exchange shall affix any required stock transfer tax stamps to the certificate or provide funds for their purchase or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such taxes are not payable.
      3. At and after the Effective Time, each certificate of FOFC Common Stock (except as set forth in Section 2.10 with respect to Dissenting Shares) shall represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration. No dividends or other distributions declared after the Effective Time with respect to CFC Common Stock shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered certificate formerly representing shares of FOFC Common Stock until such holder shall surrender such certificate in accordance with this Section. After the surrender of a certificate in accordance with this Section 2.5, the record holder thereof shall be entitled to receive any such dividends or other distributions, without any interest thereon, which theretofore have become payable with respect to shares of CFC Common Stock.
      4. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of FOFC shall be closed and no transfer of FOFC Common Stock shall thereafter be made or recognized. If, after the Effective Time, certificates representing such shares are presented for transfer, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration as provided in this Section 2.6. CFC and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to rely upon FOFC's stock transfer books to establish the identity of those Persons entitled to receive the Merger Consideration, which books shall be conclusive with respect thereto. In the event of a dispute with respect to ownership of stock represented by any certificate for shares of FOFC Common Stock, CFC 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.
      5. In the event any certificate shall have been lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such certificate to be lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated and, if required by CFC, the making of an indemnity agreement in a form reasonably requested by CFC and/or the posting by such Person of a bond in such amount as CFC may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement.
      6. Neither CFC nor FOFC shall be liable to any holder of shares of FOFC Common Stock for any Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. After the first anniversary of the Effective Time, CFC shall be entitled to instruct the Exchange Agent to release to CFC all of the shares of CFC Common Stock and cash then remaining undistributed to former shareholders of FOFC. Thereafter and until such time as any remaining undistributed shares of CFC Common Stock and cash are delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable property, escheat or similar law, CFC shall deliver certificates representing an appropriate number of shares of CFC Common Stock and/or a check for cash in lieu of fractional shares, if any, to such former shareholders of FOFC who present either to the Exchange Agent or CFC: (i) certificates representing FOFC Common Stock; (ii) the accompanying letter of transmittal; and (iii) other related documents.
    12. Effect of the Merger on Shares of CFC Common Stock and FOFC Common Stock.
    13. At the Effective Time, each share of CFC Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain an issued and outstanding share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation and shall not be affected by the Merger. Each share of FOFC Common Stock held in treasury by FOFC or owned by any Subsidiary of FOFC, CFC or any Subsidiary of CFC (in each case other than in a fiduciary capacity) immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled without any exchange or conversion thereof and no payment or distribution shall be made with respect thereto.

    14. Directors of Surviving Corporation After Effective Time; Advisory Board.
      1. Subject to Section I, immediately after the Effective Time, until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified, the directors of the Surviving Corporation shall consist of the directors of CFC serving immediately prior to the Effective Time, plus two directors of FOFC or Capital Bank serving immediately prior to the Effective Time, as selected solely in the discretion of CFC. The Bank Plan of Merger also shall provide for the selection of such directors to serve as directors of Chemung Bank.
      2. Promptly following the Effective Time, CFC shall cause to be formed a Capital District Advisory Board (the "Advisory Board") and invite each member of FOFC's and Capital Bank's respective board of directors who was formerly serving as a non-employee director immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger (other than Peter D. Cureau and members who are elected to CFC's and Chemung Bank's board of directors pursuant to Section 2.8(a)) to serve on the Advisory Board. The Advisory Board shall be comprised of such FOFC directors who accept the invitation to serve thereon. The purpose and function of the Advisory Board will be to advise Chemung Bank on deposit, lending and financial services activities in FOFC's former market area and to insure a smooth transition of business relationships in connection with the Merger and the continued development of business relationships throughout such market area. Each member of the Advisory Board shall be paid for each meeting he or she actually attends, in consideration for his or her services on the Advisory Board. The term of the Advisory Board shall be for a three (3) year period following the Effective Time.
    15. Certificate of Incorporation and ByLaws.
    16. The certificate of incorporation and the bylaws of CFC, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with applicable Law.

    17. Treatment of Stock Options and Restricted Stock.
      1. Each option to purchase shares of FOFC Common Stock issued by FOFC and outstanding at the Effective Time pursuant to the FOFC Stock Plans (each, a "FOFC Option"), whether or not such FOFC Option is exercisable at the Effective Time, shall cease to be outstanding and shall be converted into the right to receive in cash, an aggregate amount equal to the product of: (i) the number of shares of FOFC Common Stock subject to unexercised FOFC Options (both vested and unvested); and (ii) the difference, if any, between (x) the sum of: (1) 75% of the product of the Exchange Ratio and the Closing Price, and (2) 25% of $7.50, and (y) the applicable exercise price per share under the FOFC Options.
      2. Each outstanding restricted stock award which is unvested immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall vest and be free of any restrictions as of the Effective Time in accordance with the terms of the applicable FOFC Stock Plans and be exchanged for Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.4.
    18. Dissenters' Rights.
    19. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shares of FOFC Common Stock that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by shareholders who shall have not voted in favor of the Merger or consented thereto in writing and who properly shall have demanded payment of the fair value for such shares in accordance with the DGCL (collectively, the "Dissenters' Shares") shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration. Such shareholders instead shall be entitled to receive payment of the fair value of such shares held by them in accordance with the provisions of the DGCL, except that all Dissenters' Shares held by shareholders who shall have failed to perfect or who effectively shall have withdrawn or otherwise lost their rights as dissenting shareholders under the DGCL shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into and to have become exchangeable, as of the Effective Time, for the right to receive, without any interest thereon, the Merger Consideration upon surrender in the manner provided in Section 2.5 of the certificate(s) that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, evidenced such shares. FOFC shall give CFC: (i) prompt notice of any written demands for payment of the fair value of any shares of FOFC Common Stock, attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL and received by FOFC relating to shareholders' dissenters' rights; and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands under the DGCL consistent with the obligations of FOFC thereunder. FOFC shall not, except with the prior written consent of CFC: (i) make any payment with respect to such demand; (ii) offer to settle or settle any demand for payment of fair value; or (iii) waive any failure to timely deliver a written demand for payment of fair value or timely take any other action to perfect payment of fair value rights in accordance with the DGCL.

    20. Bank Merger.
    21. Concurrently with or as soon as practicable after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Capital Bank and Chemung Bank shall enter into the Plan of Bank Merger, pursuant to which Capital Bank will merge with and into Chemung Bank in the Bank Merger. The parties intend that the Bank Merger will become effective simultaneously with or immediately following the Effective Time.

    22. Alternative Structure.
    23. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, CFC may, subject to the filing of all necessary applications and the receipt of all required regulatory approvals, modify the structure of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the parties shall enter into such alternative transactions, so long as: (i) there are no adverse federal or state income tax consequences to any of the shareholders, directors or officers of FOFC as a result of such modification; (ii) the Merger Consideration is not thereby changed or reduced in amount because of such modification; (iii) such modification will not be likely to materially delay or jeopardize receipt of any required regulatory approvals; (iv) it does not result in any representation or warranty of any party set forth in this Agreement becoming incorrect in any material respect; and (v) it does not diminish the benefits of any officer, director or employee of FOFC pursuant to this Agreement.

    24. Absence of Control.

    Subject to any specific provisions of this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that CFC by reason of this Agreement shall not be deemed (until consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby) to control, directly or indirectly, FOFC or to exercise, directly or indirectly, a controlling influence over the management or policies of FOFC.

Except as set forth at Section 4.14(b) of the CFC Disclosure Schedule, all loans purchased or originated by CFC or Chemung Bank and subsequently sold have been sold without recourse to CFC or Chemung Bank and without any liability under any yield maintenance or similar obligation.

All such loans: (i) were made in the ordinary course of business; (ii) were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other Persons; and (iii) did not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features.

      1. Except as set forth in Section 4.18 of the CFC Disclosure Schedule, CFC is not aware of, has not been advised of, and has no reason to believe in, the existence of any facts or circumstances which would cause it or Chemung Bank to be deemed to be: (i) operating in violation of the Bank Secrecy Act or the Patriot Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder, the regulations promulgated and administered by OFAC, any order issued with respect to anti-money laundering by the DOJ or FinCEN, any order issued by OFAC, or any other applicable anti-money laundering Laws; or (ii) not in satisfactory compliance with the applicable privacy and customer information requirements contained in any privacy, data protection or security breach notification Laws, including, without limitation, the GLBA and the provisions of the information security program adopted pursuant to 12 CFR.

      2. FOFC and CFC will furnish the other with all information concerning it as may be necessary or advisable in connection with any application, notice or other filing made by or on behalf of the requesting party to any Regulatory Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

      4. Except for those items deemed confidential by Regulatory Authorities, CFC and FOFC will promptly furnish to each other copies of written communications to or received from any Regulatory Authority in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby. If FOFC, Capital Bank, CFC or Chemung Bank believe that a document or information is confidential under applicable Laws, and such document or information would be otherwise disclosable under this Section 5.2(d), the party possessing such document or information shall promptly and in good faith seek approval or non-objection to such disclosure from the appropriate Regulatory Authority.
      5. FOFC and CFC shall deliver to the other as soon as practicable after the end of each month and each fiscal quarter prior to the Effective Time, commencing with the month ended September 30, 2010, an unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of such date and related unaudited consolidated statements of income for the period then ended, which financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied and shall fairly reflect its consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations for the periods then ended, which financial statements may be included respectively in the FOFC and CFC Regulatory Reports delivered pursuant hereto.
      6. CFC and FOFC shall each approve the Bank Plan of Merger as sole shareholder of its Subsidiary bank and obtain the approval of, and cause the execution and delivery of, the Bank Plan of Merger, and any amendment thereof requested by CFC, in its discretion, to comply with regulatory requirements, by its Subsidiary bank.
      7. From the date of this Agreement through the Effective Time, FOFC and CFC each shall: i) maintain insurance in such amounts as are reasonable to cover such risks as are customary in relation to the character and location of its properties and the nature of its business; ii) maintain, books of account and records in accordance with past practice and those principles used in preparing the financial statements heretofore delivered; and iii) file all federal, state, and local tax returns required to be filed by them and pay all Taxes shown to be due on such returns on or before the date such payment is due.
      8. CFC and FOFC shall meet on a regular basis to discuss and plan for the conversion of FOFC and Capital Bank's data processing and related electronic informational systems to those used by CFC and Chemung Bank, which planning shall include, but not be limited to, discussion of the possible termination by FOFC of third-party service provider arrangements effective at the Closing Date or at a date thereafter, non-renewal of personal property leases and software licenses used by FOFC or Capital Bank in connection with its systems operations, retention of outside consultants and additional employees to assist with the conversion.
      9. CFC shall file current reports on Form 8-k as required under the Exchange Act in connection with this Agreement, the Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby.
    5. Subsequent Events.
    6. Until the Effective Time, each party will immediately advise the other party of any fact or occurrence, or any pending or threatened occurrence of which it obtains knowledge and which (if existing and known at the date of the execution of this Agreement) would have been required to be set forth or disclosed in or pursuant to this Agreement, which (if existing and known at any time prior to or at the Effective Time) would make the performance by a party of a covenant contained in this Agreement impossible or make such performance materially more difficult than in the absence of such fact or occurrence, or which (if existing and known at the time of the Effective Time) would cause a condition to a party's obligation under this Agreement not to be fully satisfied.

    7. Employee Matters.
      1. Subject to a pre-Closing evaluation of personnel records, CFC and Chemung Bank shall offer to retain all of Capital Bank's branch employees, and John Kite and Robert Luther. Other FOFC and Capital Bank employees whose positions might be eliminated or whose responsibilities might be materially changed as a result of the Merger will be considered for open positions within CFC and Chemung Bank as set forth in this Section 5.5. Following the execution of this Agreement, CFC shall notify the President of FOFC or his designee of employment opportunities that become available at CFC or Chemung Bank. Within five (5) business days of such notice, FOFC shall notify the CFC Director of Human Resources of individuals who have an interest in applying for the open position(s). These individuals will be given first opportunity to fill the open position(s), provided they qualify for the position(s). In the event that CFC does not receive notification within the five (5) business days, or determines that the applicant is not qualified, it will offer the open position(s) to other candidates. In the event that a FOFC employee is selected for the open position, FOFC and CFC shall mutually agree on a date the employee will assume his/her new job duties.
      2. CFC will pay to Capital Bank employees who are not parties to employment, severance, change of control or like agreements and whose employment is terminated other than for cause within six (6) months of the Closing Date, a cash severance benefit equal to two (2) weeks of salary for each year of service, with a minimum benefit equal to three (3) months salary. CFC and Chemung Bank intend to honor all of FOFC's and Capital Bank's existing employment, severance, change of control and like agreements such as directors' deferred compensation plans, SERPs and split dollar insurance policies. Notwithstanding anything contained therein or in this Agreement, no payment shall be made under any employment, retention bonus, deferred compensation, change of control and severance contract or plan that would constitute a "parachute payment" (as such term is defined in Section 280G of the Code) or that would be prohibited by any Regulatory Authority to which FOFC or Capital Bank is subject.
      3. After the Effective Time, employees of FOFC and Capital Bank who become employed by CFC or Chemung Bank will be eligible for employee benefits that CFC or Chemung Bank, as the case may be, provides to its employees generally and, except as otherwise required by this Agreement, on substantially the same basis as is applicable to such employees, provided that nothing in this Agreement shall require any duplication of benefits. CFC or Chemung Bank will: (i) give credit to employees of FOFC and Capital Bank with respect to the satisfaction of the limitations as to pre-existing condition exclusions, evidence of insurability requirements and waiting periods for participation and coverage that are applicable under the employee welfare benefit plans (within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA) of CFC or Chemung Bank, equal to the credit that any such employee had received as of the Effective Time towards the satisfaction of any such limitations and waiting periods under the comparable employee welfare benefit plans of FOFC and Capital Bank and to waive preexisting condition limitations to the same extent waived under the corresponding plan; and (ii) CFC or Chemung Bank will treat, and cause its applicable benefit plans to treat, the service of the FOFC employees with FOFC or Capital Bank as service rendered to CFC or Chemung Bank, as applicable: (i) for purposes of eligibility to participate and vesting, but not for benefit accrual under any defined benefit plan (including minimum pension amount) attributable to any period before the Effective Time; and (ii) for vacation and sick leave benefits. Benefits under CFC pension plans, if any, shall be determined solely with reference to service with CFC.
    8. Resignation.
    9. FOFC shall obtain and deliver to CFC at the Closing, evidence reasonably satisfactory to CFC of the resignation, effective as of the Effective Time, of the directors of FOFC and Capital Bank.

    10. Publicity.
    11. Except as otherwise required by applicable Laws, so long as this Agreement is in effect, neither FOFC nor CFC shall issue or cause the publication of any press release or other public announcement with respect to, or otherwise make any public statement concerning, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, without the consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. FOFC and CFC shall cooperate to prepare a joint press release announcing the signing of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereunder.

    12. Section 16 Matters.
    13. Prior to the Effective Time, CFC shall take all such steps as may be required to cause any acquisitions of CFC Common Stock resulting from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by each director or officer of FOFC who becomes subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to CFC to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. FOFC agrees to promptly furnish CFC with all requisite information necessary for CFC to take the actions contemplated by this Section 5.8.

    14. Indemnification.
      1. From and after the Effective Time through the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, CFC agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director and officer of FOFC and Capital Bank and each officer or employee of FOFC and Capital Bank that is serving or has served as a director or officer of another entity expressly at FOFC's or Capital Bank's request or direction (each, an "Indemnified Party"), against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, as they are from time to time incurred, in each case to the fullest extent such Person would have been indemnified or have the right to advancement of expenses pursuant to FOFC's certificate of incorporation and bylaws as in effect on the date of this Agreement and to the fullest extent permitted by law.
      2. Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under this Section 5.9, upon learning of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, shall promptly notify CFC thereof, but the failure to so notify shall not relieve CFC of any liability it may have hereunder to such Indemnified Party if such failure does not materially and substantially prejudice CFC. CFC shall use its reasonable best efforts to maintain FOFC's existing directors' and officers' liability insurance policy or provide a policy providing comparable coverage and amounts to the Persons currently covered by FOFC's existing policy for a period of 6 years after the Effective Time; provided, however, that in no event shall CFC be obligated to expend, in order to maintain or provide such insurance coverage an amount in the aggregate in excess of 150% of the amount of the annual premiums paid by FOFC as of the date hereof for such insurance ("Maximum Insurance Amount"); provided further, that if the amount of the premiums necessary to maintain or procure such insurance coverage exceeds the Maximum Insurance Amount, CFC shall obtain the most advantageous coverage obtainable for a premium equal to the Maximum Insurance Amount.

      3. In the event CFC or any of its successors or assigns: (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger; or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, to the extent necessary, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of CFC assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.9.
    15. Exclusivity/Competing Proposals.
      1. FOFC shall not, and shall not permit any Affiliate of FOFC or any officer, director or employee of any of them, or any investment banker, attorney, accountant or other representative retained by FOFC or any FOFC Affiliate to, directly or indirectly, solicit, encourage, or initiate discussions or negotiations with, or respond to requests for information, inquiries, or other communications from, any Person other than CFC concerning the fact of, or the terms and conditions of, this Agreement, or concerning any acquisition of FOFC or Capital Bank or any assets or business thereof (except that FOFC officers and directors may respond to inquiries from analysts, Regulatory Authorities and holders of FOFC Common Stock in the ordinary course of business); and FOFC shall notify CFC immediately if any such discussions or negotiations are sought to be initiated with FOFC by any Person other than CFC or if any such requests for information, inquiries, proposals or communications are received from any Person other than CFC. If, and only to the extent that: (i) the FOFC board of directors reasonably determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel, that such action would be required in order for the directors of FOFC to comply with their respective fiduciary duties under applicable Laws in response to a bona fide, written Acquisition Proposal not solicited in violation of this Section 5.10 that the FOFC Board believes is a Superior Competing Proposal; and (ii) FOFC provides notice to CFC of its decision to take such action in accordance with the requirements of Section 5.10(b), FOFC may: (a) furnish information with respect to FOFC to any Person making such Acquisition Proposal pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement (as determined by FOFC after consultation with its outside counsel) on terms substantially similar to the terms contained in the Confidentiality Agreement; (b) participate in discussions or negotiations regarding an Acquisition Proposal; and (c) authorize any statement or recommendation in support of such an Acquisition Proposal; and (d) withhold, withdraw, amend or modify the recommendation for FOFC shareholder approval of the Merger and the Bank Merger. No Acquisition Proposal shall be considered a Superior Competing Proposal unless, during the three (3) day period following FOFC's notification to CFC of the Superior Competing Proposal, FOFC and its advisors shall have negotiated in good faith with CFC to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement such that the Acquisition Proposal would no longer constitute a Superior Competing Proposal, and such negotiations fail to result in the necessary adjustments to this Agreement
      2. FOFC shall notify CFC promptly (but in no event later than 24 hours) after receipt of any Acquisition Proposal, or any material modification of or material amendment to any Acquisition Proposal, or any request for nonpublic information relating to FOFC or for access to the properties, books, or records of FOFC by any Person that informs the FOFC board of directors or a member of senior management of FOFC that it is considering making, or has made, an Acquisition Proposal. Such notice to CFC shall be made orally and in writing, and shall indicate the identity of the Person making the Acquisition Proposal or intending to make or considering making an Acquisition Proposal or requesting non-public information or access to the books and records of FOFC, and the material terms of any such Acquisition Proposal and any modification or amendment to such Acquisition Proposal. FOFC shall keep CFC fully informed, on a current basis, of any material changes in the status and any material changes or modifications in the terms of any such Acquisition Proposal, indication or request. FOFC also shall promptly, and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours, notify CFC, orally and in writing, if it enters into discussions or negotiations concerning any Acquisition Proposal in accordance with Section 5.10(a).
    16. Registration of CFC Common Stock.
      1. As promptly as reasonably practicable following the date hereof, CFC shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-4 with respect to the issuance of CFC Common Stock in the Merger. FOFC will furnish to CFC the information required to be included in the Registration Statement with respect to its business and affairs and shall have the right to review and consult with CFC and approve the form of, and any characterizations of such information included in, the Registration Statement prior to its being filed with the SEC. CFC shall use reasonable best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC and to keep the Registration Statement effective as long as is necessary to consummate the Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby. CFC and FOFC will each use reasonable best efforts to cause the Joint Proxy Statement-Prospectus to be mailed to the shareholders of CFC and FOFC as promptly as practicable after the Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act. CFC will advise FOFC, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the time when the Registration Statement has become effective, the issuance of any stop order, the suspension of the qualification of the CFC Common Stock issuable in connection with the Merger for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or any request by the SEC for amendment of the Joint Proxy Statement-Prospectus or the Registration Statement. If at any time prior to the Effective Time any information relating to CFC or FOFC, or any of their respective Affiliates, officers or directors, should be discovered by CFC or FOFC which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to any of the Registration Statement or the Joint Proxy Statement-Prospectus so that any of such documents would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party which discovers such information shall promptly notify the other party hereto and, to the extent required by Law, an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed by CFC with the SEC and disseminated by FOFC to the shareholders of FOFC.
      2. CFC shall also take any action required to be taken under any applicable state securities Laws in connection with the Merger and each of FOFC and CFC shall furnish all information concerning it and the holders of FOFC Common Stock as may be reasonably requested in connection with any such action.
      3. Prior to the Effective Time, CFC shall notify the OTC Bulletin Board of the additional shares of CFC Common Stock to be issued by CFC in exchange for the shares of FOFC Common Stock.
    17. Shareholder Meetings.
      1. FOFC will submit to its shareholders this Agreement and any other matters required to be approved or adopted by FOFC shareholders in order to carry out the intentions of this Agreement. In furtherance of that obligation, FOFC will take, in accordance with applicable Law and its certificate of incorporation and bylaws, all action necessary to call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its shareholders (the "FOFC Shareholder Meeting") as promptly as practicable for the purpose of considering and voting on approval and adoption of this Agreement and the transactions provided for in this Agreement. FOFC's board of directors will use all reasonable best efforts to obtain from its shareholders a vote approving this Agreement. Except as provided in this Agreement: (i) FOFC's board of directors shall recommend to its shareholders approval of this Agreement; (ii) the Joint Proxy Statement-Prospectus shall include a statement to the effect that FOFC's board of directors has recommended that its shareholders vote in favor of the approval of this Agreement; and (iii) neither FOFC's board of directors nor any committee thereof shall withdraw, amend or modify, or propose or resolve to withdraw, amend or modify, the recommendation of FOFC's board of directors that its shareholders vote in favor of approval of this Agreement or make any statement in connection with the FOFC Shareholder Meeting inconsistent with such recommendation (collectively, a "FOFC Change in Recommendation"). Notwithstanding the foregoing if: (i) FOFC has complied in all material respects with its obligations under Section 5.10; (ii) FOFC (a) has received an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal from a third party that FOFC's board of directors concludes in good faith constitutes a Superior Competing Proposal after giving effect to all of the adjustments that may be offered by CFC pursuant to clause (c) below; (b) FOFC has notified CFC, at least five (5) business days in advance, of it is intention to effect a FOFC Change in Recommendation, specifying the material terms and conditions of any such Superior Competing Proposal and furnishing to CFC a copy of the relevant proposed transaction documents, if such exist, with the Person making such Superior Competing Proposal; and (c) during the period of not less than five(5) business days following FOFC's delivery of the notice referred to in clause b above and prior to effecting such FOFC Change in Recommendation, has negotiated, and has used reasonable best efforts to cause its financial and legal advisors to negotiate, with CFC in good faith (to the extent that CFC desires to negotiate) to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Acquisition Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Competing Proposal; and (d) FOFC's board of directors, after consultation with and based on the advice of counsel, determines in good faith that it would result in a violation of its fiduciary duties under applicable law to recommend this Agreement, then in submitting the Agreement to shareholders at the FOFC Shareholder Meeting, it may submit the Agreement without recommendation, or following submission of the Agreement to shareholders it may withdraw, amend or modify its recommendation, in which case the board of directors may communicate the basis for its lack of a recommendation, or the withdrawal, amendment or modification of its recommendation, to the shareholders in the Joint Proxy Statement-Prospectus or an appropriate amendment or supplement thereto to the extent required by Law.
      2. CFC will submit to its shareholders this Agreement and any other matters required to be approved or adopted by shareholders in order to carry out the intentions of this Agreement. In furtherance of that obligation, CFC will take, in accordance with applicable Law and its certificate of incorporation and bylaws and Regulation 14A (including Rules 14a and 14b thereunder) under the Exchange Act, all action necessary to call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its shareholders (the "CFC Shareholder Meeting") as promptly as practicable for the purpose of considering and voting on approval and adoption of this Agreement and the transactions provided for in this Agreement. CFC's board of directors will use all reasonable best efforts to obtain from its shareholders a vote approving this Agreement. Except as provided in this Agreement: (i) CFC's board of directors shall recommend to its shareholders approval of this Agreement; (ii) the Joint Proxy Statement-Prospectus shall include a statement to the effect that CFC's board of directors have recommended that its shareholders vote in favor of the approval of this Agreement; and (iii) neither CFC's board of directors nor any committee thereof shall withdraw, amend or modify, or propose or resolve to withdraw, amend or modify, the recommendation of CFC's board of directors that its shareholders vote in favor of approval of this Agreement or make any statement in connection with the CFC Shareholder Meeting inconsistent with such recommendation.
    18. No Market Manipulation

    From the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time or this Agreement terminates: (a) CFC and FOFC and their Affiliates shall not directly or indirectly purchase, or sell, any shares of CFC Common Stock or any security measured by reference to CFC Common Stock, except pursuant to employee or director stock option plans and defined contribution plans established under Section 401(k) of the Code; and (b) CFC and FOFC shall not, directly or indirectly, purchase or sell any security on the Index, or any security measured by reference to any security on the Index.


  8. Termination
    1. Termination.
    2. This Agreement may be terminated on or at any time prior to the Closing Date, whether before or after approval by the shareholders of FOFC and CFC:

      1. by the mutual written consent of the parties; or
      2. by CFC or FOFC if there shall have been any material breach of any obligation of CFC, on the one hand, or FOFC, on the other hand, and such breach cannot be, or shall not have been, remedied within fifteen business (15) days after receipt by such other party of notice in writing specifying the nature of such breach and requesting that it be remedied; or
      3. if the Effective Time shall not have occurred prior to October 31, 2011 (or December 31, 2011 if the reason the Effective Time has not occurred is due to the fact that the parties have not received approval from the Regulatory Authorities)despite prompt and diligent actions by the parties, or any required waiting period shall have not yet expired or been terminated); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 6.1(c) shall not be available to a party whose action or failure to act has been a principal cause of or resulted in the failure of the Effective Time to occur on or before such date; or
      4. if either party has been informed in writing by a Regulatory Authority whose approval or consent has been requested that such approval or consent will not be granted, unless such non-approval or non-consent shall be due to the failure of the party seeking to terminate this Agreement to perform or observe its agreements set forth herein required to be performed or observed by such party on or before the Closing Date; or
      5. by CFC: (i) if FOFC fails to hold the FOFC Shareholder Meeting to vote on the Agreement within the time frame set forth in Section 5.12(a); or (ii) if FOFC's board of directors either (x) fails to recommend, or fails to continue its recommendation, that the shareholders of FOFC vote in favor of the adoption of this Agreement; or (y) modifies, withdraws or changes in any manner adverse to CFC its recommendation that the shareholders of FOFC vote in favor of the adoption of this Agreement; or
      6. by FOFC, at any time prior to the FOFC Shareholders Meeting held to vote on the adoption and approval of the Merger, in order to concurrently enter into an acquisition agreement or similar agreement with respect to a Superior Competing Proposal which has been received by FOFC and the FOFC board of directors in compliance with Section 5.10; or

      (g) by FOFC: (i) if CFC fails to hold the CFC Shareholder Meeting to vote on the Agreement within the time frame set forth in Section 5.12(b); or (ii) if CFC's board of directors either: (i) fails to recommend, or fails to continue its recommendation, that the shareholders of CFC vote in favor of the adoption of this Agreement; or (ii) modifies, withdraws or changes in any manner adverse to FOFC its recommendation that the shareholders of CFC vote in favor of the adoption of this Agreement; or

      (h) by CFC, pursuant to Section 2.5; or

      (i) by FOFC if: i) on the Closing Date, the Closing Price is less than $17.85 per share; and ii) during the period between the public announcement of this Agreement and the Merger and the Closing Date, the per share price of CFC's Common Stock shall have underperformed the Index by 20%. As used in this Section , the term "underperformed" means that the per share price of CFC Common Stock declined by more than an additional 20% over the performance of the Index during such period. For example, if the Index declined 15% during the period, CFC Common Stock must have declined by more than 35% to constitute underperformance.

    3. Effect of Termination.
    4. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 6.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void other than (Sections 5.2(c), 6.3, 8.2, 8.3, 8.4, 8.11, 8.12 and 8.13) and there shall be no further liability on the part of CFC or FOFC to the other, except for any liability of CFC or FOFC under such sections of this Agreement and except for any liability arising out of any uncured breach of any covenant or other agreement contained in this Agreement or any breach of a representation or warranty.

    5. Termination Fee.
      1. If CFC or FOFC terminates this Agreement under Section 6.1(f), by reason of FOFC having agreed to enter into a Superior Competing Proposal, FOFC shall pay CFC a termination fee in an amount equal to 2.5% of the Merger Consideration, the value of which shall be computed as if the Closing occurred on the date of the termination. Amounts payable under this Section 6.3, shall be paid without setoff, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to an account specified by CFC, not later than three (3) business days following the adoption by the FOFC board of directors of a resolution approving or adopting a Superior Competing Proposal. FOFC acknowledges that the expense payment and termination fee contained in this Section 6.3 is an integral part of the transactions contemplated hereby and that, without these provisions, CFC would not enter into this Agreement.
      2. The parties agree that the termination fee is fair and reasonable in the circumstances. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall nonetheless, by a final, nonappealable judgment, determine that the amount of any such termination fee exceeds the maximum amount permitted by law, then the amount of such termination fee shall be reduced to the maximum amount permitted by law in the circumstances, as determined by such court of competent jurisdiction.

      12. The Registration Statement shall have become effective under the Securities Act and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall have been issued and be in effect and no proceedings for that purpose shall have been initiated by the SEC and not withdrawn.
      13. CFC shall have received an estoppel certificate, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H, executed by the landlord for each of Capital Bank's branch offices.


  10. Other Matters
    1. Closing.
    2. The Closing will take place at 10:00 a.m. at the offices of Hinman, Howard & Kattell, LLP, counsel to CFC, on a date specified by the parties, which shall be no later than three (3) business days after the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions precedent specified under Sections 7.1 and 7.2 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the fulfillment or waiver of those conditions), or on such other date, place and time as the parties may agree. Alternatively, the parties may agree that the Closing shall occur without their or their counsel's physical presence in the same location, through the transmission and execution of documents and instruments using electronic media, including, but not limited to, e-mail and telefacsimile. Digital signatures produced by such means shall have the same force and effect as handwritten signatures. If the parties elect to use this method for the Closing, following the Closing, they shall promptly execute handwritten documents and instruments and exchange the signature pages thereof so that each party shall have a complete set(s) of manually signed documents memorializing the Closing.

    3. Expenses.
    4. Each party hereto shall bear and pay all costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, including fees and expenses of its own financial consultants, accountants and counsel, except that CFC and FOFC each shall bear and pay 50% of all printing and mailing costs and filing fees associated with the Registration Statement and the Joint Proxy Statement-Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto.

    5. Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants.
    6. All representations, warranties and covenants in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered pursuant hereto shall expire on, and be terminated and extinguished at, the Effective Time other than covenants that by their terms are to survive or be performed after the Effective Time; provided, that no such representations, warranties or covenants shall be deemed to be terminated or extinguished so as to deprive CFC or FOFC (or any director, officer or controlling Person thereof) of any defense in law or equity which otherwise would be available against the claims of any Person, including, without limitation, any shareholder or former shareholder of either CFC or FOFC, the aforesaid representations, warranties and covenants being material inducements to the consummation by CFC and FOFC of the Transactions.

    7. Assignment/Limitation of Benefits.
    8. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns. This Agreement is not intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder, and the covenants, undertakings and agreements set out herein shall be solely for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable only by, the parties hereto and their permitted assigns.

    9. Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries.
    10. This Agreement, including the documents and other writings referred to herein or delivered pursuant hereto, contains the entire agreement and understandings of the parties with respect to its subject matter. This Agreement supersedes all prior arrangements and understandings between the parties, both written or oral with respect to its subject matter and is not intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties any rights or remedies hereunder.

    11. Amendment, Extension and Waiver.
    12. This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto, by action taken or authorized by their respective boards of directors, at any time before or after approval of the matters presented in connection with the Merger by the parties' shareholders, but, after any such approval, no amendment shall be made which by applicable Law requires further approval by such shareholders without such further approval. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto. At any time prior to the Effective Time, the parties hereto, by action taken or authorized by their respective board of directors, may, to the extent legally allowed: (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties hereto; (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto; and (iii) waive compliance with any of the terms or conditions contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such party, but such waiver or failure to insist on strict compliance with such obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

    13. Notices.
    14. All notices or other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if delivered personally, mailed by prepaid registered or certified mail (return receipt requested), sent by recognized overnight delivery service guaranteeing next day delivery or sent by e-mail with following confirmation copy by any of the foregoing means, addressed as follows:
