NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and subject to the conditions herein set forth, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, do undertake, promise, covenant and agree with each other as follows:

ARTICLE 1

SALE AND PURCHASE OF CERTAIN ASSETS

AND ASSUMPTION AND TRANSFER OF CERTAIN LIABILITIES

F. All cash on hand at the Branch as of the close of business on the Closing Date, including vault cash, automated teller machine (“ATM”) cash, petty cash, tellers’ cash and cash items in the process of collection (the “Cash on Hand”);

G. All operating costs and prepaid items relating to the Branch after the Effective Time and which were paid by Seller prior to the Effective Time, including, without limitation, any and all prepaid insurance premiums or assessments paid to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) through the Deposit Insurance Fund, with respect to the Deposits (the “Prepaid Items”);

H. All customer and merchant credit card accounts (the “Credit Card Accounts”); and

I. All of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to leases, subleases and licenses (whether written or oral) to which Seller is a lessor, sublessor or licensor with respect to the Real Property (the “Real Property Leases”), each of which are set forth on Schedule 1.1I.

J. All overdrafts of the book balance of any of the Deposits, which are not subject to Overdraft Protection Lines of Credit (“Overdrafts”);

K. Seller’s rights under the consumer lines of credit made available to customers of the Branch as a protection against overdrafts on the Deposits (“Overdraft Protection Lines of Credit”), and all Loans outstanding on the Closing Date pursuant to Overdraft Lines of Credit (“Overdraft Protection Loans”); and

L. Any equipment leases (the “Equipment Leases”) pursuant to which equipment used in the Branch is leased by Seller and that are identified on Schedule 1.1L, including all documents executed or delivered in connection with each such Equipment Lease and all rights in relation thereto at Closing.

For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Loans” includes:

(i) all right, title and interest of Seller in and to the collateral held as security for the Loans, and all right, title and interest of Seller in and to any promissory notes or other obligations to repay such Loans, all conditional and installment sales contracts, all notes and other instruments or chattel paper arising out of such Loans, all proceeds therefrom and all rights to receive payments thereon, loan agreements, certificates of title, liens, pledges, pledged certificates of deposit, guarantees, endorsements, security agreements, financing statements and other such security and security documentation securing or relating to any of the Loans, together with any and all right, title and interest of Seller in and to any title insurance policies, title opinions, property, casualty or fire insurance policy, and the proceeds thereof, and all other like similar items relating to said Loans;

Buyer shall succeed to all rights, title, benefits and interests of Seller in and to the Assets as of the Effective Time, and shall be entitled to receive all benefits therefrom as if Buyer had itself acquired such Assets. To the extent that any Safe Deposit Contract may not be assigned without the consent of any person or entity which has not been obtained as of the Closing, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign the same if an attempted assignment would constitute a default thereof. If any consent applicable to the Safe Deposit Contract is not

obtained prior to the Closing, or if any attempted assignment would be ineffective so that Buyer would not in effect acquire the benefit of such rights, then Buyer and Seller shall enter into a commercially reasonable arrangement for Seller to act after the Closing as Buyer’s agent in order to preserve and obtain for Buyer the benefits thereunder, and such commercially reasonable arrangement shall be designed to transfer the economic costs of such benefits to Buyer.

Buyer agrees and acknowledges that it is purchasing only the Assets (and assuming only the Liabilities) specified in this Agreement and, except as may be expressly provided for in this Agreement, Buyer is not hereby acquiring an interest in or right to any business relationship which Seller or its affiliates may have with any customer of the Branch that is not contemplated hereby. Each party agrees and acknowledges that no insurance (except for credit life insurance), trust and custody relationships, or brokerage or investment management relationships are being sold hereby.

1.2 Assets to be Retained by Seller. Seller shall retain all assets not expressly purchased by Buyer pursuant to Section 1.1 (collectively, the “Excluded Assets”), including, but not limited to:

A. All other real estate owned by Seller or carried as in substance foreclosures with respect to the Branch;

B. All loans or participations in loans that are not Loans;

C. All of Seller’s rights in and to the name “Community First Bank & Trust” and any of Seller’s corporate logos, trademarks, service marks, trade names, signs, copyrights, uniform resource locators (URLs), domain names (and associated email addresses), internet websites, proprietary information, paper stock forms, labels, shipping materials, brochures, advertising and marketing materials and other supplies or rights containing any such rights referencing Seller or any of its affiliates;

D. Any regulatory licenses or any other nonassignable licenses and permits;

E. Any proprietary software of Seller or any affiliate of Seller;

F. All routing numbers of Seller used in connection with the Deposits or the Branch;

G. all rights of Seller or any of its affiliates to solicit and service, and all relationships of Seller (whether or not attributed to the Branch) in connection with (i) annuities, securities and investment products, (ii) insurance products or policies or (iii) trusts, fiduciary services or activities or portfolio investment management services or activities, including, without limitation, all rights of Seller or any of its affiliates to receive income, premiums, fees or commissions relating to any item referenced in clauses (i) - (iii) above prior to or following the Closing Date by Seller or any of its affiliates attributed to the Branch.

H. all other assets, properties and rights of Seller or any of its affiliates relating to, located at, attributed to or used at branches, facilities or locations of Seller or any of its affiliates other than the Branch.

All deposits (other than the deposits retained by Seller under Section 1.2) listed on Schedule 1.3A (as such Schedule may be updated in accordance with Section 1.7) as of the Effective Time, and all IRAs to the extent contemplated by Section 1.12 (collectively, the “Deposits”), together with all liabilities, duties and obligations of Seller associated therewith, including, but not limited to, the agreements with customers associated with such deposits (the “Deposit Agreements”; the holders of record of the Deposits are hereinafter referred to as the “Depositors”) and accrued but unpaid interest expense on such Deposits;

B. All liabilities, duties and obligations of Seller arising or to be performed after the Effective Time under the Safe Deposit Contracts;

C. All liabilities, duties and obligations of Seller arising or to be performed after the Effective Time with respect to the Loans, including under the loan documents related to the Loans, including, without limitation, any obligations to make advances or disbursements of principal with respect to and in accordance with the terms of any Loan;

D. All liabilities, duties and obligations of Seller associated with the Credit Card Accounts;

1.5 Payment Amount and Cash Payment.

A. Seller shall provide to Buyer, within five (5) business days prior to the Closing Date, a preliminary schedule of Closing settlement amounts substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A showing in reasonable detail the calculation of the payments to be made at Closing (the “Preliminary Payment Schedule”). For the purposes of this Agreement, “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which commercial banks in Nashville, Tennessee are authorized or required to close.

B. At Closing, a cash payment calculated in accordance with the Preliminary Payment Schedule shall be made by Seller to Buyer, or by Buyer to Seller, as applicable, in an amount (the “Payment Amount”) equal to (i) the sum of (a) the net book value of the Deposits shown on the books and records of Seller as of the Closing Date and (b) the net book value of the accrued interest payable on the Deposits as of the Closing Date less (ii) the sum of (a) a deposit premium equal to 4.0% (the “Deposit Premium”) of the net book value of the Deposits and accrued interest payable thereon as of the Closing Date, (b) the Cash on Hand, (c) an amount equal to the principal balance of the Loans, Overdraft Protection Loans and Overdrafts shown on the books and records of Seller as of the Closing Date (without reference to loss reserves, deferred costs or revenues, if any), (d) the net book value of the accrued interest receivable and fees with respect to the Loans as of the Closing Date, (e) the fair market value of the Real Property (as determined pursuant to Section 1.11), (f) the net book value of the FFE

shown on the books and records of Seller as of the Closing Date, (g) the net book value of the Prepaid Items shown on the books and records of Seller as of the Closing Date, and (h) the net book value of the Credit Card Accounts shown on the books and records of Seller as of the Closing Date. If the Payment Amount is an amount less than zero, then Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the absolute value of such Payment Amount. If the Payment Amount is greater than zero, then Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the Payment Amount.

C. The Payment Amount due at Closing from Seller to Buyer or from Buyer to Seller, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 1.5 shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Sections 1.7 and 1.8.

1.6 The Closing, the Closing Date and the Effective Time. The sale and purchase of the Assets and the assumption of the Liabilities pursuant to this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall occur on the first Friday following the third business day following receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, the expiration of any mandatory waiting periods and the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions precedent set forth in Articles 6 and 7 or such other day as may be agreed to by the parties. The Closing shall be held at 10:00 a.m. local time at the offices of Bradley Arant Boult Cummings LLP, 1600 Division Street, Suite 700, Nashville, TN 37203, unless another time or place is mutually agreed upon by Buyer and Seller. The date of the Closing is referred to herein as the “Closing Date.” The effective time (the “Effective Time”) shall be 5:00 p.m., local time, on the Closing Date or such other time as Buyer and Seller shall mutually agree, notwithstanding the actual time that the Closing occurs. Buyer and Seller specifically agree that time is of the essence for all purposes with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

1.7 Preliminary and Final Lists of Deposits, Safe Deposit Contracts, Loans and Miscellaneous Items.

A. On or before the 10th day of each month, beginning in March 2012 and continuing until the Closing Date, Seller shall furnish to Buyer an updated list (each a “Preliminary List”) of the Deposits, Safe Deposit Contracts, Overdrafts, Overdraft Protection Loans and Loans as of the last day of the preceding month, together with a trial balance for the Branch as of the end of such month, certified by the President or Chief Financial Officer of Seller (acting in his or her official capacity and not individually) to be true and correct in all material respects as of such date. The parties will prepare a final Preliminary List five (5) days prior to the Closing Date and a calculation of all amounts payable on the Closing Date pursuant to Section 1.5 in accordance with the amounts reflected on such final Preliminary List.

B. Within five (5) business days following the Closing Date, Seller shall furnish Buyer with an updated list (the “Final List”) of the Deposits, Safe Deposit Contracts, Overdrafts, Overdraft Protection Loans and Loans as of the Effective Time, certified by the President or Chief Financial Officer of Seller (acting in his or her official capacity and not individually) to be true and correct as of such date. In addition, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a list of all Loans, Overdrafts, and Overdraft Protection Loans purchased, individually identified by account number and date of origination, which list

shall be appended to the Bill of Sale, and a list of all Deposits and Safe Deposit Contracts assumed, which list shall be appended to the Assignment and Assumption Agreement (as defined in Section 1.9J). Subject to rights of indemnification pursuant to Article 8, the Final List shall become final and binding on Buyer and Seller upon the earlier of (A) ten (10) business days after its delivery to Buyer, unless Buyer gives written notice to Seller of its disagreement with respect to any item included in or excluded from such Final List, or (B) upon written notice from Buyer to Seller of its agreement with respect to the contents of the Final List. Seller and Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any disagreement with respect to the Final List during the five (5) business day period after receipt by Seller from Buyer of any notice of disagreement. If the disagreement is not resolved within such five (5) business day period, the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Operating Officer of Buyer and the President or Chief Financial Officer of Seller shall meet or confer to resolve such dispute. If the disagreement is not resolved during the ten (10) business days following such meeting or conference to resolve the dispute, either party may submit any disputed amounts to a firm of certified public accountants mutually agreeable to Seller and Buyer (the “Mediator”), which shall determine such dispute in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement within thirty (30) calendar days after the submission. The parties shall each pay one half of the fees and expenses of the Mediator, except that the Mediator may assess the full amount of its fees and expenses against either party if it determines that party negotiated the Final List in bad faith. The revised Final List, as agreed upon by the parties and determined under this subsection, shall be final and binding upon the parties. When the Final List becomes final and binding, an appropriate settlement payment from Seller to Buyer or from Buyer to Seller, as applicable, will be made, adjusting the Payment Amount, together with accrued interest on the amount of such adjustment calculated at the federal funds rate in effect on the Closing Date for the number of days elapsed between the Closing Date and the date of such settlement payment.

1.8 Proration; Other Adjustments. All amounts prepaid relating to the Branch, including any rent, real estate taxes, personal property taxes (tangible or intangible), utility, water and sewer charges and assessments, and maintenance and service expenses, as well as premiums paid to the FDIC, and semiannual assessments paid to the Bank Insurance Fund, each with respect to the Deposits, shall be prorated between Buyer and Seller as of the close of business on the Closing Date such that all expenses related to the operation of the Branch on and prior to the Closing Date shall be paid by Seller and all such expenses related to the operation of the Branch after the Closing Date shall be paid by Buyer. To the extent any such expense has been prepaid by Seller for a period extending beyond the Closing Date, there shall be a proportionate monetary adjustment in favor of Seller. Without limiting any other rights Buyer may have under this Agreement, if either (i) any Material Adverse Change (as defined in Section 2.9) exists with respect to any Loan on the Closing Date or (ii) any change in the credit quality of any Loan between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date resulting in such Loan having a risk rating of four (4) or worse (consistent with Buyer’s past practices), then Buyer may, at its option, declare any affected Loan to be an Excluded Asset or, in consultation with Seller, adjust the Payment Amount in a mutually agreeable manner to take into account the fair impact of such Material Adverse Change or change in credit quality. Seller shall be liable for all property taxes, ad valorem taxes and similar taxes and fees with respect to the Assets and all costs relating to the

operation of its business at the Real Property that relate to any time prior to the Closing Date, and Buyer shall be liable for all such property taxes, ad valorem taxes and similar taxes and fees and all costs relating to the operation of its business at the Real Property, that relate to any time on or subsequent to the Closing Date. All such property taxes, ad valorem taxes and similar taxes and fees and costs shall be prorated between Buyer and Seller as of 12:01 a.m. local time on the Closing Date.

1.9 Deliveries by Seller at the Closing. At the Closing, Seller shall prepare, execute and acknowledge (as applicable), and deliver to Buyer, in recordable form as appropriate, together with third party consents and releases of liens and security interests when required, certificates and other instruments of sale, conveyance, transfer and assignment relating to the Assets, including, without limitation, the following (all of such actions constituting conditions precedent to Buyer’s obligations to close hereunder):

I. If the Payment Amount is an amount greater than zero, Seller shall pay to Buyer at Closing an amount equal to the Payment Amount in immediately available funds;

J. A bill of sale in substantially the form of Exhibit B (the “Bill of Sale”) by which Seller transfers the Assets to Buyer;

K. An assignment and assumption agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit C (the “Assignment and Assumption Agreement”) by which Seller assigns the Liabilities to Buyer and Buyer assumes the Liabilities from Seller;

4.6 Real Property; Title Insurance and Survey.

A. Title Insurance. Seller shall order title commitments for the Real Property (the “Title Commitment”) from a title company reasonably acceptable to Buyer (the “Title Company”) to issue as of the Closing Date an ALTA owner’s policy (the “Title Policy”) insuring Buyer’s interest in the Real Property, together with improvements, buildings and fixtures thereon, in amounts equal to the appraised value for the Real Property calculated in accordance with Section 1.11 of this Agreement. The Title Commitment shall provide for the issuance of the Title Policy to Buyer as of the Closing, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions. Seller agrees to make available to Buyer any information that is in the possession of Seller or to which Seller has reasonable access as may be required by the Title Company under the requirements section of the Title Commitment or otherwise in connection with the issuance of the Title Policy. Seller also agrees to provide an affidavit of title and/or such other information as the Title Company may reasonably require in order for the Title Company to insure over the “gap” (i.e., the period of time between the effective date of the title insurance company’s last checkdown of title to the Real Property and the Closing Date) and to cause the Title Company to delete the standard exceptions from the Title Policy relating to parties in possession and construction liens. All title search and examination fees and title insurance premiums shall be paid by Seller.

B. Survey. Seller shall order surveys of the land and improvements comprising the Real Property (collectively, the “Surveys”) and all costs associated with the survey shall be paid by Buyer from a surveyor reasonably acceptable to Buyer, which shall be deemed to include any surveyor who has previously prepared a survey with respect to the Real Property (the “Surveyor”). The Surveys will comply in all respects with the minimum detail requirements of the American Land Title Association/American Congress on Survey and Mapping as such requirements are in effect on the date of preparation of the Surveys and are sufficient for the Title Company to remove all standard survey exceptions from the Title Policy and issue a survey endorsement reasonably acceptable to Buyer.

C. Title and Survey Defects. Within twenty (20) days after the latter of the receipt of the Title Commitment with legible copies of all exception documents and Survey by Buyer, (the “Inspection Period”) Buyer shall give Seller written notice of any matters revealed by the Title Commitment or Survey which adversely affect the Real Property, other than Permitted Exceptions, and as to which Buyer objects (the “Title Defects”). Any objection which is not timely made shall be deemed waived. Within five (5) days after receipt of Buyer’s written notice of Title Defects, Seller shall provide

written notice to Buyer of which Title Defects it elects to cure and Seller shall have until the Closing to cure said Title Defects. Seller shall take such actions to satisfy all B-I requirements in the Title Commitment within its control and satisfy, pay or bond-off at Closing from the sales proceeds amounts secured by liens or mortgages, real estate taxes and assessments which are due and payable (subject to pro-ration adjustments as provided herein) and liquidated liens or judgments affecting all or any portion of the Real Property including any such matters which arise subsequent to the effective date of the Title Commitment (collectively, the “Monetary Liens”). If Seller refuses to remedy said title objections or if Seller is unable to effect a cure prior to or at Closing, other than the Monetary Liens which Seller is required to remedy, Buyer may in its sole discretion either (i) terminate this Agreement or (ii) expressly waive such title objections or defects and proceed toward Closing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Buyer may object at any time after the expiration of the Inspection Period to any additional matters first shown by any endorsement of the Title Commitment and/or re-certifications of the Survey, provided that such matters were not created by, through or under Buyer (the “New Title Defects”) and if Seller refuses to remedy any such New Title Defects, Buyer may in its sole discretion either (i) terminate this Agreement or (ii) expressly waive such title objections or defects and proceed toward Closing.

D. Environmental Assessment. Buyer shall have the right to procure and conduct a “Phase I” environmental assessment of the Real Property. The cost of any such assessment shall be paid by Buyer. Buyer shall promptly provide Seller with a copy of any environmental assessments or reports, if any, obtained by Buyer with respect to the Real Property.

4.7 Untrue Representations. Seller shall promptly notify Buyer in writing if Seller becomes aware of any fact or condition that makes untrue, or shows to have been untrue, in any material respect, any schedule or any other information furnished to Buyer or any representation or warranty made in or pursuant to this Agreement (except that with respect to those representations and warranties specifically made as of an earlier date, only if such representation or warranty was untrue as of such earlier date) or that results in Seller’s failure to substantially comply with any material covenant, condition or agreement contained in this Agreement.

4.8 Notice of Material Adverse Changes, Litigation and Claims. Seller shall promptly notify Buyer in writing if Seller becomes aware of (A) any actual or to the knowledge of Seller threatened litigation against Seller materially affecting, or which would reasonably be expected to materially affect, the Branch or the Assets, or (B) any change that has occurred in the business, financial condition, or operations of the Branch that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.

4.9 No Disclosure or Negotiation with Others.

A. Seller shall not disclose, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the disclosure of, any of the terms or conditions hereof to any other person or entity except for disclosure to any officer, director, employee, agent, advisor, representative or affiliate who needs to know such information in connection with the negotiation or consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or as required by appropriate regulatory authorities and compliance with applicable disclosure obligations under securities laws.

B. Following the execution of this Agreement and until the earlier of the Closing Date or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article 11 hereof, as long as this Agreement shall remain effective, Seller shall not, directly or indirectly, or through any of its affiliates, nor shall it knowingly permit any of its officers, directors, employees, shareholders, representatives or agents to, directly or indirectly, (i) encourage, solicit or initiate discussions or negotiations with, or discuss or negotiate with, or provide any information to, any corporation, partnership, person or other entity or group (other than Buyer or an affiliate or an associate of Buyer or an officer, partner, employee or other authorized representative of Buyer or such affiliate or associate) concerning any sale of or similar transaction involving any portion of the Assets or assignment and assumption of any portion of the Liabilities, or (ii) enter into any agreement or take any action that by its terms or effect is intended to adversely affect the ability of the parties hereto to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

C. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the limitations to this Article set forth in
Section 8.4(B) shall not apply with respect to any Loss arising from or related to a breach of the Fundamental Representations.

D. In determining the amount of any indemnification obligations under this Article 8, the amount of any obligation for which indemnification may be claimed by any Indemnified Party shall be reduced by any insurance proceeds and tax benefits actually received by the Indemnified Party with respect to the matter that is the subject of the indemnified claim, net of any expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in collecting such amount and any increased premiums resulting therefrom.

E. Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the contrary, in the event any party to this Agreement perpetrates an intentional fraud on another party hereto, any party which suffers a Loss by reason thereof shall be entitled to seek recovery therefor against the person or persons who perpetrated such intentional fraud without regard to any limitation set forth in this Agreement (whether a temporal limitation, the Basket or otherwise) and such Losses shall not count towards satisfaction of the Basket.

F. All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement or in any schedule or exhibit to this Agreement will survive the Closing Date for the periods set forth in Section 8.4(A) and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

G. The parties shall have no obligations or liability under this Article 8 for any punitive damages, lost profits or consequential damages or losses that the Indemnified Party may suffer arising out of or relating to this Agreement.

8.5 Procedure for Indemnification.

A. If a party hereto seeks indemnification under this Article 8 against another party, such party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give written notice to such other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the facts and circumstances giving rise to the claim. If any suit, action, claim, liability or obligation shall be brought or asserted by any third party (an “Indemnification Proceeding”) which, if adversely determined, would entitle the Indemnified Party to indemnity pursuant to this Article 8, the Indemnified Party shall, as promptly as practicable after receiving notice thereof, notify the Indemnifying Party of the same in writing, specifying in detail the basis of such claim and the facts pertaining thereto; provided that the failure to so notify any Indemnifying Party shall not relieve such Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent such failure shall have materially prejudiced such Indemnifying Party.

B. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume and control the defense of such Indemnification Proceeding. The Indemnifying Party shall not, in the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, consent to entry of any judgment (other than a judgment of dismissal on the merits without costs) except with the written consent of the Indemnified Party, or enter into any settlement (except with the written consent of the Indemnified Party) which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation. If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of an Indemnification Proceeding as provided in this Section 8.5(B), the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any legal expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with a defense of an Indemnification Proceeding. Anything in this Section 8.5 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Indemnified Party may, with counsel of its choice and at its expense, participate in the defense of any such claim or litigation. In all cases, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of claims or litigation, including by making employees, information, and documentation reasonably available. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume control of such defense and shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of one (1) counsel retained by the Indemnified Party, if the claim which the Indemnifying Party seeks to assume control (i) seeks non-monetary relief, except where non-monetary relief is incidental to a primary claim or primary claims for monetary damages, (ii) involves criminal or quasi-criminal allegations or (iii) involves a claim which, upon petition by the Indemnified Party, the appropriate court rules that the Indemnifying Party failed or is failing to diligently prosecute or defend. In the event that the Indemnified Party assumes control of such defense, the Indemnifying Party shall not be bound by any determination of such matter or any compromise or settlement thereof without the consent of the Indemnifying Party which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

C. In the event that the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of an Indemnification Proceeding after receipt of written notice from such Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party may defend against the Indemnification Proceeding in such manner as it deems appropriate. In effecting the settlement of any such Indemnification Proceeding, the Indemnified Party shall act in good faith, shall consult with the Indemnifying Party and shall enter into only such a settlement as the Indemnifying Party shall approve (the Indemnifying Party’s approval will be implied if it does not respond within five (5) business days of its receipt of the written notice of such a settlement offer).

8.6 Payments. Any payment pursuant to a claim for indemnification hereunder shall be made not later than five (5) business days after an agreement between the relevant parties as to the validity and amount of the claim or after the amount of the claim is finally determined by a non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Any payment required under this Section 8.6 which is not made when due shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate published by The Wall Street Journal as the “prime rate” at large U.S. money center banks, compounded monthly (provided that if such rate of interest is in excess of the maximum amount permitted by applicable law, the rate of interest shall be reduced to the maximum rate chargeable under applicable law). Amounts actually paid as indemnification to Buyer or by Buyer shall be treated as adjustments to the Payment Amount.

8.7 Definitions. For the purposes of this Article 8, the term “Insiders” means the officers, directors, employees, shareholders, representatives, and agents of a business entity, and the term “Losses” means damages, liabilities, losses, obligations, actions, suits, disbursements, claims, deficiencies, penalties, interest, expenses, fines, assessments, charges and costs actually incurred by the Indemnified Party (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and expert witness’ fees, costs of investigation and court costs) of every kind except as otherwise limited herein.

8.8 Exclusivity. After the Closing, except in the case of fraud or willful breach, this Article 8 will provide the exclusive remedy for any breach of representation or warranty set forth in this Agreement or otherwise arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided that the foregoing shall not prevent a party from obtaining specific performance, injunctive relieve or any other available non-monetary equitable remedy.

8.9 As-Is Sale; Waiver of Warranties. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT OR THE DEED, BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE ASSETS AND LIABILITIES ARE BEING SOLD AND ACCEPTED ON AN “AS-IS-WHERE-IS” BASIS. SELLER HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE ASSETS AND LIABILITIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

ARTICLE 9

OPERATIONAL AGREEMENTS

9.1 Replacement of Customer Check Stock and ATM and Debit Cards. The parties will use reasonable efforts to develop, prior to the Effective Time, procedures (A) that will cause checks drawn on Seller’s form of check stock against Deposits that are received after the Effective Time to be cleared through Buyer’s then current clearing procedures and (B) to provide for the delivery of new ATM and debit cards by Buyer and the orderly processing of ATM and debit card transactions.

9.2 Payment of Checks, Drafts, and Orders. After the Effective Time, Buyer agrees (A) to pay in accordance with applicable law, the Deposit agreements and customary banking practice all checks, drafts and withdrawal orders properly drawn by Depositors and properly presented to Buyer, whether drawn on the checks, withdrawal or draft forms provided by Seller or by Buyer, to the extent that the Deposit balances to the credit of the respective makers or drawers assumed by Buyer under this Agreement are sufficient to permit the payment thereof (after taking into account any overdraft protection rights of the Depositors), and (B) in all other respects to discharge, in accordance with applicable law, the Deposit agreements and customary banking practice in the usual course of its banking business, all duties and obligations of Seller with respect to the balances due and owing to the Depositors. If any of the Depositors shall demand payment from Seller for all or any part of any Deposit, Seller shall not be liable or responsible for making such payment.

9.3 Clearing Items. During the 30-day period following the Closing Date, if it is not possible to clear checks or other items drawn on a Deposit account through Buyer’s then current clearing procedures, Seller will make provisional settlement to the presenting institution and will forward all such checks and other items on such Deposit to Buyer, no later than the next business day after receipt thereof, and Buyer will reimburse Seller for such provisional settlement within one (1) business day. Upon the expiration of such 30-day period, Seller shall cease forwarding checks and other debits against the Deposit accounts and return them to the originators marked “Account Closed.” Upon timely presentation to Buyer, Buyer will assume responsibility for such items (except for such items that have not been handled by Seller in accordance with applicable law or regulation, or with ordinary care), including but not limited to determining whether to honor or dishonor such items and giving any required notification for the return of items.

9.4 Returned Items. Buyer agrees, no later than the start of the second (2nd) business day after demand by Seller, to pay to Seller an amount equivalent to the amount of any uncollected item included in a Depositor’s balance on the Closing Date that is returned within sixty (60) days after Closing as not collected. Buyer shall be required to make such payment for an item only up to the balance of any funds on deposit with Buyer and any balance available to the customer under any overdraft plan the Depositor has with Buyer at the time Seller makes the demand as aforesaid.

9.5 Data Processing. Prior to the Closing, Seller and Buyer shall cooperate with one another and shall use their commercially reasonable best efforts (consistent with their informal day to day operations) in order to cause the conversion of the current data processing activities of the Branch with respect to the Assets and Liabilities to Buyer’s data processing system to the extent necessary to facilitate the transfer of the Assets and Liabilities to Buyer. As soon as practicable at the request of Buyer after receipt of all required regulatory approvals, Seller shall deliver to Buyer, at Buyer’s expense, a list of the Deposits (customer names, addresses and tax identification numbers, current balances and maturities of all certificates of deposits), grouped by deposit type, and original or one duplicate copy (including electronic copy, magnetic tape, disc storage, card forms and printed copy). Following the receipt of the regulatory approvals (except for the expiration of statutory waiting periods) or with the approval of Seller, Buyer shall be permitted, at its expense and without unreasonably interfering with the operations of the Branch, to install and test communication lines, both internal and external, and prepare for the installation of automated equipment in the Branch on the Closing Date. Upon Closing, Seller shall deliver all customer information files and customer records, ACH items, application files, machine operating and application software, full documentation of all application and processing routines and any other documentation in the possession of the Branch and reasonably necessary to the orderly operation and conversion to Buyer’s system of Seller’s data processing operations to the extent necessary to facilitate the transfer of the Assets and Liabilities to Buyer.

9.6 Compliance with Garnishments and Similar Orders. After the Effective Time, Buyer will comply in all material respects with any and all garnishments, similar court orders, tax liens and order of any governmental entity in effect with respect to the Deposits, and Buyer will not pay any Deposits in violation of such garnishments, orders or tax liens or otherwise take any actions not permitted pursuant thereto or pursuant to applicable law.

9.7 Direct Deposit Arrangements. Seller will use reasonable efforts to transfer to Buyer on the Closing Date all of those automated clearing house and Fed wire direct deposit arrangements that are tied by agreement or other standing arrangement to the Deposits.

9.8 Final Statements. Seller will render a final statement to each Depositor of an account assumed under this Agreement as to transactions occurring through the Effective Time and will comply with all laws, rules and regulations regarding tax reporting of transactions of such accounts through the Effective Time; provided, however, that Seller shall not be obligated to render a final statement on any account not ordinarily receiving periodic statements in the ordinary course of Seller’s business. Seller will be entitled to impose normal fees and service charges on a per-item basis, but Seller will not impose periodic fees or blanket charges in connection with such final statements unless such final statement is made as of a date that would ordinarily carry such periodic fees or blanket charges.

9.9 Interest Reporting and Withholding. All tax information reporting and filing requirements and all tax withholding requirements with respect to the Assets and the Liabilities are the responsibility of Seller up to and through the Closing Date and the responsibility of Buyer thereafter.

9.10 Loans. In connection with the transfer of the Loans, Seller and Buyer agree as follows:

A. The parties will cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Buyer to become the beneficiary of credit life, accident and health, vendor’s single interest premium or similar insurance purchased by or on behalf of such customer on the Loans. For the duration of such insurance, Seller and Buyer agree to cooperate in good faith to develop a mutually satisfactory method by which the issuer of such insurance will make rebate payments to and satisfy claims of the holders of such certificates of insurance after the Effective Time;

B. Each of Buyer and Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all notice and reporting requirements of the loan documents or of any law or regulation with respect to the transfer of such Loans;

C. Within fifteen (15) days prior to the Closing Date (or, if such shorter period is allowed by law, following receipt of all regulatory approvals but prior to the Closing Date), Seller will, at its expense, send to Loan customers payment information or payment notices with Buyer’s payment address. Within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, Buyer will, at its expense, issue new coupon books or similar payment notices for payment of the Loans with instructions to use Buyer’s coupons or statements and to destroy unused coupons furnished by Seller;

D. For a period of ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, within three (3) business days after receipt by Seller of any check or money order made payable to Seller representing payment on a Loan, Seller shall issue and forward a cashier’s check made payable to Buyer or wire transfer to the benefit of Buyer in the amount of such item, and forward the item for collection. If the item is returned unpaid, however, Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of such item’s return and shall forward the original of such item to Buyer. Within three (3) business days after receipt of such returned item, Buyer shall issue and forward a cashier’s check or wire transfer to Seller in the amount of such item, and Buyer shall be responsible for any further efforts to collect such item; and

E. If the balance due on any Loan has been reduced by Seller as a result of a payment by check received prior to the Closing Date, which item is returned after the Closing Date, the asset value representing the Loan transferred shall be correspondingly increased and an amount in cash equal to such increase shall be paid by Buyer to Seller promptly upon demand.

9.11 Other Items. After the Effective Time, Seller agrees to deliver immediately, but in no event later than two (2) business days after receipt by Seller, to Buyer (A) any collected funds accepted by Seller for credit to any account included in the Deposits, (B) any refunds or reimbursements of prepaid expenses included in the acquired Assets for which an adjustment to the Payment Amount was made pursuant to Sections 1.7 or 1.8 and which are accepted by Seller, and (C) any written notices or correspondence received by Seller relating to the Deposits or the Loans. Buyer shall pay to Seller immediately, but in no event later than two (2) business days after receipt by Buyer, any refunds or reimbursements of accrued expenses for which an adjustment to the Payment Amount was made pursuant to Sections 1.7 or 1.8 and which are accepted by Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 9, each of Seller and Buyer shall as soon as practicable following the Closing establish demand deposit accounts in favor of the other, and shall credit such accounts with any amounts payable to the other pursuant to this Article 9. The party in whose favor such account is established shall be entitled to draw upon such account by wire transfer at any time. All amounts shall be credited on or before the time that such amounts would otherwise be payable pursuant to the applicable section of this Article 9. Each of Buyer and Seller shall maintain the accounts so established for a period of ninety (90) days after the Closing Date.

9.12 Safe Deposit Box and Safekeeping Business. From and after the Effective Time, Buyer agrees to assume and discharge, in the usual course of banking business, the duties and obligations of Seller with respect to and in accordance with the Safe Deposit Contracts, and to maintain all necessary facilities for the use of such safety deposit boxes by the persons entitled to use them during the period for which such persons or entities have paid rent therefore in advance to Seller, subject to the provisions of the rental agreements between Seller and the respective renters of such safety deposit boxes. From and after the Effective Time, Buyer shall assume, honor, and discharge the duties and obligations of Seller with respect to all safekeeping items obtained from Seller pursuant to such assumed Safe Deposit Contracts, including the maintenance and protection thereof, and shall be entitled to any right or benefit thereafter. At the Closing, Seller shall provide Buyer with a true and correct list of all Safe Deposit Contracts in effect as of the Closing Date that Buyer assumes hereunder, together with the rentals or other amounts paid on such Safe Deposit Contracts and the expiration dates of such Safe Deposit Contracts.

9.13 Non-Solicitation. For and in consideration of the purchase by Buyer of the Assets and the assumption of the Liabilities and the other agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement, for a period of twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, Seller will not specifically target and solicit the deposit relationships, retail or commercial banking business of any current customers of Seller at the Branch whose banking business or any part thereof is

transferred to Buyer as part of the Assets or Liabilities pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Furthermore, for a period of twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, Seller shall not open or relocate a new branch within ten (10) miles of the Branch; provided, however, that this restriction will not apply to any branch existing as of the date of this Agreement nor preclude Seller from acquiring, or being acquired by or selling assets to, another financial institution which may have a branch or branches within ten (10) miles of the Branch. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 9.13 shall (i) restrict general mass mailings, telemarketing calls, statement stuffers, advertisements or other similar communications whether in print, on radio, television, the Internet, or by other means that are directed to the general public or to a group of customers who may include customers of the Branch, provided that such group is defined by criteria other than primarily as customers of the Branch, (ii) otherwise prevent Seller from taking such actions as may be required to comply with applicable federal or state laws, rules or regulations or from servicing or communicating with the then-current customers of Seller, or (iii) restrict or prevent Seller from soliciting or providing any securities, brokerage, trust, or insurance services or products to any customer whose Deposits are assumed by, or whose Loan is assigned to, Buyer pursuant to this Agreement or any other customer, except that Seller may not solicit any deposit or lending business that has the purpose or effect of replacing in whole or in part any Deposit assumed by, or Loan assigned to, Buyer pursuant to this Agreement. If any court of competent jurisdiction should determine that any term or terms of this covenant or such agreements are too broad in terms of time, geographic area, lines of commerce or otherwise, such court shall modify and revise any such term or terms so that they comply with applicable law. Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that Buyer may be irreparably damaged if the provisions of this Section 9.13 are not specifically enforced. Accordingly, Buyer shall be entitled to seek an injunction restraining any violation of this Section 9.13 by Seller (without any bond or other security being required), or any other appropriate decree of specific performance. Such remedies shall not be exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedy that Buyer may have at law or in equity.

9.14 Certain Taxes. Seller and Buyer shall share equally the responsibility for the payment of all transfer taxes, recording fees, Uniform Commercial Code filing fees and the like arising as a result of the purchase of the Assets, when due. Buyer shall not be responsible for, or have any liability with respect to, any taxes incurred by Seller or its shareholders arising out of this transaction. Seller shall cooperate with Buyer in Buyer’s efforts to minimize any transfer taxes and recording or filing fees payable, if any, as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

9.15 Allocation of Payment Amount. No later than thirty (30) calendar days after the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a statement setting forth an allocation of the Payment Amount paid in respect of the Assets (for federal, state and local tax purposes) (the “Allocation”) in accordance with the rules under Section 1060 of the Code. Buyer and Seller shall cooperate to comply with all substantive and procedural requirements of Section 1060 of the Code and any regulations thereunder, and the Allocation shall be adjusted if and to the extent necessary to comply with the requirements of Section 1060 of the Code. Buyer shall have a period of ten (10) business days following receipt of the Allocation in which to review the Allocation and raise any objections that Buyer may have. Unless Buyer timely objects, the Allocation shall become binding on the parties without further adjustment. If Buyer timely objects, Seller and Buyer shall use their reasonable best efforts to resolve the disagreement during the ten-day period following Buyer’s notice. If the disagreement is not resolved during such ten-day period, the dispute shall be referred to the Mediator and such Allocation shall be modified by any resolution and thereupon such Allocation shall become final and binding. Buyer and Seller shall jointly bear the costs of such Mediator.

ARTICLE 10

EMPLOYEE MATTERS

The parties shall follow the following procedure in dealing with employees of Seller regarding employment after the Closing:

10.1 Notice to Employees and Information. With respect to all employees of Seller affiliated with the Branch, which employees are listed on Schedule 10.1 hereto (the “Branch Employees”), as soon as reasonably practicable after the signing of this Agreement, Seller and Buyer shall jointly notify each Branch Employee that Seller and Buyer have entered into an agreement with respect to Buyer’s acquisition of the Assets and Liabilities.

10.2 Employee Matters.

A. Buyer will offer to employ all of the Branch Employees effective as of the Closing Date. Buyer will communicate offers of employment in accordance with any applicable legal requirements and in a form mutually acceptable to Seller and Buyer. All such Branch Employees shall be offered employment with Buyer in all cases (i) in a position requiring comparable skills and abilities as such Branch Employee’s position with Seller on the Closing Date, (ii) with annual base salary, or weekly or hourly rate of pay which is equal to such Branch Employee’s pay with Seller on the Closing Date, (iii) at a work location not more than ten (10) miles from such Branch Employee’s work location with Seller on the Closing Date, and (iv) with a work schedule that is no more than a two-hour adjustment to the starting or ending time, and with the same regular scheduled work days, of the Branch Employee’s position with Seller on the Closing Date (a “Comparable Job Offer”). Each Branch Employee who accepts Buyer’s offer of employment and commences employment with Buyer hereunder shall become a “Transferred Employee” on the Closing Date. Years of service of each of the Transferred Employees with Seller, and any predecessors, prior to the Effective Time shall be credited for purposes of (i) eligibility under Buyer’s employee welfare benefit plans, and (ii) eligibility and vesting, but not for purposes of benefit accrual or contributions, under all other employee benefit plans of Buyer, including, without limitation, all pension, retirement, profit sharing, 401(k) and employee stock ownership plans. With respect to any Branch Employee who accepts an offer of employment from Buyer who on the Closing Date is on military leave, medical leave, short-term disability or other leave of absence in accordance with applicable law and approved by Seller (but excluding any Branch Employee absent by reason of long-term disability, for whom Seller will retain all liability), except as required by applicable law, Buyer need only employ such Branch Employee for the period beginning after such absence if such Branch Employee returns to employment in accordance with the terms of such Branch Employee’s leave. Any such Branch Employee will cease employment with Seller at the end of such leave of absence. Nothing in this Agreement shall be

construed as an employment contract between Buyer and any Transferred Employee. Buyer shall not have any responsibilities or rights regarding any Branch Employee terminated prior to the Closing Date or any Branch Employee who has received a Comparable Job Offer from Buyer but who chooses not to become an employee of Buyer.

B. In accordance with the provisions of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”) and the terms of Buyer’s group health, hospitalization, medical, dental and disability plans (collectively, the “Buyer’s Plans”), the Transferred Employees shall be given “creditable coverage” credit for their coverage under Seller’s group health, hospitalization, medical, dental and disability plans under the pre-existing condition limitation provisions of Buyer’s Plans. In addition, if a condition was not a “pre-existing condition” for a participant in Seller’s group health, hospitalization, medical, dental and disability plans, then it shall not be considered to be a pre-existing condition under Buyer’s Plans; provided, however, that if a Transferred Employee’s condition is being excluded as a pre-existing condition under the relevant Seller’s plan of the Closing Date, then Buyer may treat such condition as a pre-existing condition under the relevant Buyer’s Plan for the period such condition would have been treated as a pre-existing condition under Seller’s plan.

C. Unless otherwise agreed by Buyer and Seller in writing, Seller is responsible for the filing of Forms W-2 with the Internal Revenue Service and any required filing with state tax authorities, with respect to wages and benefits paid to each Transferred Employee for periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date (or the date that a Branch Employee becomes a Transferred Employee.

D. Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the Branch Employees as Branch Employees of Seller from the date hereof through the Closing Date.

E. Buyer and Seller agree that Seller shall not deliver any notice to the Branch Employees pursuant to the Worker Adjustment and Retaining Act, as amended (the “WARN Act”). Buyer further agrees that it shall be responsible for providing a timely notification if required by the WARN Act for any employee terminations or layoffs following the Closing Date. Buyer shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Seller from and against any and all claims, lawsuits, costs (including reasonable counsel fees) and liabilities suffered by Seller as a result of any failure to give any notice to the Branch Employees pursuant to the WARN Act.

10.3 Seller’s Retention of Liabilities. Seller shall retain all liabilities and obligations (including, without limitation, the liability and obligation for all wages, salary, vacation pay and unemployment, medical, dental, vision, health, disability and retirement benefits), for any claims incurred by any Branch Employee prior to the Effective Time. Except as required by law, Buyer shall not at any time assume any liability for the benefits of any Branch Employee under any of Seller’s benefit plans.

G. By Buyer in the event of a material breach of Section 4.9B by Seller.
