and agrees to
deliver to the Corporation all Records assigned and transferred to
the Corporation under this Article VI as soon as practicable
on or after the date of this Agreement. The party requesting a copy
of any Record shall bear the cost (based on standard accepted
industry charges to the extent applicable, as determined by the
Receiver) for providing such duplicate Records. A copy of each
Record requested shall be provided as soon as practicable by the
party having custody thereof.
ARTICLE VII
FIRST LOSS TRANCHE
The Assuming Bank
has submitted to the Receiver an asset premium (discount) bid
of ($800,000.00) and a Deposit premium bid of 0%. The Deposit
premium bid will be applied to the total of all Assumed Deposits
except for brokered, CDARS, and any market place or similar
subscription services Deposits. The First Loss Tranche shall be
determined by adding (i) the asset premium
(discount) bid, (ii) the Deposit premium bid, and
(iii) the Equity Adjustment. If the First Loss Tranche is a
positive number, then this is the Losses on Single Family
Shared-Loss Loans and Net Charge-offs on Shared Loss Assets that
the Assuming Bank will incur before loss-sharing commences under
Exhibits 4.15A and 4.15B. If the First Loss Tranche is a negative
number, the Corporation shall pay such amount by wire transfer to
the Assuming Bank by the end of the first business day following
Bank Closing and loss sharing shall commence
immediately.
8.1 Pro
Forma Statement . The Receiver, as soon as
practicable after Bank Closing, in accordance with the best
information then available, shall provide to the Assuming Bank a
pro forma statement reflecting any adjustments of such liabilities
and assets as may be necessary. Such pro forma statement shall take
into account, to the extent possible, (i) liabilities and
assets of a nature similar to those contemplated by
Section 2.1 or Section 3.1, respectively, which at Bank
Closing were carried in the Failed Bank’s suspense accounts,
(ii) accruals as of Bank Closing for all income related to the
assets and business of the Failed Bank acquired by the Assuming
Bank hereunder, whether or not such accruals were reflected on the
Accounting Records of the Failed Bank in the normal course of its
operations, and (iii) adjustments to determine the Book Value
of any investment in an Acquired Subsidiary and related accounts on
the “bank only” (unconsolidated) balance sheet of
the Failed Bank based on the equity method of accounting, whether
or not the Failed Bank used the equity method of accounting for
investments in subsidiaries, except that the resulting amount
cannot be less than the Acquired Subsidiary’s recorded equity
as of Bank Closing as reflected on the Accounting Records of the
Acquired Subsidiary. Any Loan purchased by the Assuming Bank
pursuant to Section 3.1 which the Failed Bank charged off
during the period from May 31, 2009 to Bank Closing
shall be deemed not to be charged off for the purposes of the pro
forma statement, and the purchase price shall be determined
pursuant to Section 3.2.

8.2
Correction of Errors and Omissions; Other Liabilities
.
(a) In the
event any bookkeeping omissions or errors are discovered in
preparing any pro forma statement or in completing the transfers
and assumptions contemplated hereby, the parties hereto agree to
correct such errors and omissions, it being understood that, as far
as practicable, all adjustments will be made consistent with the
judgments, methods, policies or accounting principles utilized by
the Failed Bank in preparing and maintaining Accounting Records,
except that adjustments made pursuant to this Section 8.2(a)
are not intended to bring the Accounting Records of the Failed Bank
into accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles.
(b) If the
Receiver discovers at any time subsequent to the date of this
Agreement that any claim exists against the Failed Bank which is of
such a nature that it would have been included in the liabilities
assumed under Article II had the existence of such claim or
the facts giving rise thereto been known as of Bank Closing, the
Receiver may, in its discretion, at any time, require that such
claim be assumed by the Assuming Bank in a manner consistent with
the intent of this Agreement. The Receiver will make appropriate
adjustments to the pro forma statement provided by the Receiver to
the Assuming Bank pursuant to Section 8.1 as may be
necessary.
8.3
Payments . The Receiver agrees to cause to be
paid to the Assuming Bank, or the Assuming Bank agrees to pay to
the Receiver, as the case may be, on the Settlement Date, a payment
in an amount which reflects net adjustments (including any costs,
expenses and fees associated with determinations of value as
provided in this Agreement) made pursuant to Section 8.1 or
Section 8.2, plus interest as provided in Section 8.4. The
Receiver and the Assuming Bank agree to effect on the Settlement
Date any further transfer of assets to or assumption of liabilities
or claims by the Assuming Bank as may be necessary in accordance
with Section 8.1 or Section 8.2.
8.4
Interest . Any amounts paid under
Section 8.3 or Section 8.5, shall bear interest for the
period from and including the day following Bank Closing to and
including the day preceding the payment at the Settlement Interest
Rate.
8.5
Subsequent Adjustments. In the event that the Assuming
Bank or the Receiver discovers any errors or omissions as
contemplated by Section 8.2 or any error with respect to the
payment made under Section 8.3 after the Settlement Date, the
Assuming Bank and the Receiver agree to promptly correct any such
errors or omissions, make any payments and effect any transfers or
assumptions as may be necessary to reflect any such correction plus
interest as provided in Section 8.4.

Matters . The parties hereto agree that they will,
in good faith and with their best efforts, cooperate with each
other to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
and to effect the purposes hereof.
9.2
Additional Title Documents . The Receiver, the
Corporation and the Assuming Bank each agree, at any time, and from
time to time, upon the request of any party hereto, to execute and
deliver such additional instruments and documents of conveyance as
shall be reasonably necessary to vest in the appropriate party its
full legal or equitable title in and to the property transferred
pursuant to this Agreement or to be transferred in accordance
herewith. The Assuming Bank shall prepare such instruments and
documents of conveyance (in form and substance satisfactory to the
Receiver) as shall be necessary to vest title to the Assets in the
Assuming Bank. The Assuming Bank shall be responsible for recording
such instruments and documents of conveyance at its own
expense.
(a) The
Receiver shall have the right, in its discretion, to
(i) defend or settle any claim or suit against the Assuming
Bank with respect to which the Receiver has indemnified the
Assuming Bank in the same manner and to the same extent as provided
in Article XII, and (ii) defend or settle any claim or
suit against the Assuming Bank with respect to any Liability
Assumed, which claim or suit may result in a loss to the Receiver
arising out of or related to this Agreement, or which existed
against the Failed Bank on or before Bank Closing. The exercise by
the Receiver of any rights under this Section 9.3(a) shall not
release the Assuming Bank with respect to any of its obligations
under this Agreement.
(b) In the
event any action at law or in equity shall be instituted by any
Person against the Receiver and the Corporation as codefendants
with respect to any asset of the Failed Bank retained or acquired
pursuant to this Agreement by the Receiver, the Receiver agrees, at
the request of the Corporation, to join with the Corporation in a
petition to remove the action to the United States District Court
for the proper district. The Receiver agrees to institute, with or
without joinder of the Corporation as co plaintiff, any action with
respect to any such retained or acquired asset or any matter
connected therewith whenever notice requiring such action shall be
given by the Corporation to the Receiver.
9.4 Payment
of Deposits . In the event any depositor does not
accept the obligation of the Assuming Bank to pay any Deposit
liability of the Failed Bank assumed by the Assuming Bank pursuant
to this Agreement and asserts a claim against the Receiver for all
or any portion of any such Deposit liability, the Assuming Bank
agrees on demand to provide to the Receiver funds sufficient to pay
such claim in an amount not in excess of the Deposit liability
reflected on the books of the Assuming Bank at the time such claim
is made. Upon payment by the Assuming Bank to the Receiver of such
amount, the Assuming Bank shall be discharged from any further
obligation under this Agreement to pay to any such depositor the
amount of such Deposit liability paid to the Receiver.

9.5
Withheld Payments . At any time, the Receiver or
the Corporation may, in its discretion, determine that all or any
portion of any deposit balance assumed by the Assuming Bank
pursuant to this Agreement does not constitute a
“Deposit” (or otherwise, in its discretion, determine
that it is the best interest of the Receiver or Corporation to
withhold all or any portion of any deposit), and may direct the
Assuming Bank to withhold payment of all or any portion of any such
deposit balance. Upon such direction, the Assuming Bank agrees to
hold such deposit and not to make any payment of such deposit
balance to or on behalf of the depositor, or to itself, whether by
way of transfer, set-off, or otherwise. The Assuming Bank agrees to
maintain the “withheld payment” status of any such
deposit balance until directed in writing by the Receiver or the
Corporation as to its disposition. At the direction of the Receiver
or the Corporation, the Assuming Bank shall return all or any
portion of such deposit balance to the Receiver or the Corporation,
as appropriate, and thereupon the Assuming Bank shall be discharged
from any further liability to such depositor with respect to such
returned deposit balance. If such deposit balance has been paid to
the depositor prior to a demand for return by the Corporation or
the Receiver, and payment of such deposit balance had not been
previously withheld pursuant to this Section, the Assuming Bank
shall not be obligated to return such deposit balance to the
Receiver or the Corporation. The Assuming Bank shall be obligated
to reimburse the Corporation or the Receiver, as the case may be,
for the amount of any deposit balance or portion thereof paid by
the Assuming Bank in contravention of any previous direction to
withhold payment of such deposit balance or return such deposit
balance the payment of which was withheld pursuant to this
Section.
9.6
Proceedings with Respect to Certain Assets and
Liabilities .
(a) In
connection with any investigation, proceeding or other matter with
respect to any asset or liability of the Failed Bank retained by
the Receiver, or any asset of the Failed Bank acquired by the
Receiver pursuant to this Agreement, the Assuming Bank shall
cooperate to the extent reasonably required by the
Receiver.
(b) In
addition to its obligations under Section 6.4, the Assuming
Bank shall provide representatives of the Receiver access at
reasonable times and locations without other limitation or
qualification to (i) its directors, officers, employees and
agents and those of the Subsidiaries acquired by the Assuming Bank,

Subsidiaries and all Credit Files, and copies thereof. Copies of

Section 3.4 or the date of the notice of transfer of any Loan
by the Assuming Bank to the Receiver pursuant to Section 3.6,
the Assuming Bank shall deliver to the Receiver such documents with
respect to such Loan as the Receiver may request, including without
limitation the following: (i) all related Credit Documents

supplement any amount payable by any Primary Indemnitor to the
Person indemnified under this Article XII. Consistent with
that intent, the Receiver agrees only to make payments pursuant to
such indemnification to the extent not payable by a Primary
Indemnitor. If the aggregate amount of payments by the Receiver, or
the Corporation as guarantor in accordance with Section 12.7,
and all Primary Indemnitors with respect to any item of
indemnification under this Article XII exceeds the amount
payable with respect to such item, such Person being indemnified

being indemnified under this Article XII shall become involved
in any criminal action, suit or proceeding, whether judicial,
administrative or investigative, the Receiver shall have no
obligation hereunder to indemnify such Person for liability with
respect to any criminal act or to the extent any costs or expenses
are attributable to the defense against the allegation of any
criminal act, unless (i) the Person is successful on the
merits or otherwise in the defense against any such action, suit or
proceeding, or (ii) such action, suit or proceeding is
terminated without the imposition of liability on such
Person.
12.7
Limited Guaranty of the Corporation . The Corporation
hereby guarantees performance of the Receiver’s obligation to

applicable provisions of this Article XII. The Corporation
shall be liable hereunder only for such amounts, if any, as the
Receiver is obligated to pay under the terms of this
Article XII but shall fail to pay. Except as otherwise
provided above in this Section 12.7, nothing in this
Article XII is intended or shall be construed to create any
liability or obligation on the part of the Corporation, the United
States of America or any department or agency thereof under or with
respect to this Article XII, or any provision hereof, it being
the intention of the parties hereto that the obligations undertaken
by the Receiver under this Article XII are the sole and exclusive
responsibility of the Receiver and no other Person or
entity.
12.8
Subrogation . Upon payment by the Receiver, or the
Corporation as guarantor in accordance with Section 12.7, to
any Indemnitee for any claims indemnified by the Receiver under
