REMEDIES OF THE INVESTOR UPON BREACH

(i) any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Recipient included in this Agreement or the
Preferred Shares, (ii) Section 104A of the Community Development Banking Act or the ECIP
Interim Final Rule, or (iii) any additional rules or regulations established in connection with ECIP
that further the purposes of Section 104A of the Community Development Banking Act , Treasury
may, in its sole discretion, determine that the Recipient shall not be eligible for any rate reduction
with respect to the Preferred Shares for such period as Treasury, in its sole discretion, shall
-23-

FOR REFERENCE ONLY – NOT FOR EXECUTION – UPDATED 3.25.2022
determine. Any such determination shall cause the applicable dividend rate of the Preferred Stock
to reset as specified in the Certificate of Designations. Treasury shall provide notice to the
Recipient of any determination with respect to the Recipient’s disqualification from eligibility for
rate reductions or the termination of any such disqualification; provided that any failure by
Treasury to provide notice of any such determination or defect in such notice or the transmission
thereof shall not affect or prejudice Treasury’s rights or remedies under this Section 5.1 or the
Preferred Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a determination by the Recipient not to declare
dividends for any dividend period or a default in the payment of dividends that have been declared
shall not be subject to this Section 5.1.
Section 5.2

Recipient Breach, Violation or Default.

(a)
If Treasury determines, in its sole discretion, that the Recipient or an Affiliate of
the Recipient has breached, violated or defaulted under (i) any covenant, agreement or obligation
of the Recipient or an Affiliate of the Recipient included in this Agreement or the Preferred Shares,
(ii) Section 104A of the Community Development Banking Act or the ECIP Interim Final Rule,
or (iii) any additional rules or regulations established in connection with ECIP that further the
purposes of Section 104A of the Community Development Banking Act, Treasury may, in its sole
discretion, report such breach, violation or default to the CDFI Fund or other entities within or
affiliated with Treasury. The Recipient acknowledges that any such report of a breach, violation
or default may result in the Recipient becoming ineligible for awards or programs offered by the
CDFI Fund or other entities within or affiliated with Treasury at that time or in the future in
accordance with the terms and conditions of such awards or programs offered by the CDFI Fund
or other entities within or affiliated with Treasury.
(b)
The restrictions on, and notice requirement with respect to, the transferability of the
Preferred Stock set forth in Section 6.3(a)(v) shall cease to apply if Treasury determines, in its sole
discretion, that the Recipient or an Affiliate of the Recipient has breached, violated or defaulted
under (i) any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Recipient or an Affiliate of the Recipient
included in this Agreement or the Preferred Shares, (ii) Section 104A of the Community
Development Banking Act or the ECIP Interim Final Rule, or (iii) any additional rules or
regulations established in connection with ECIP that further the purposes of Section 104A of the

of the Recipient or an Affiliate of the Recipient included in this Agreement or the Preferred Shares,
(ii) Section 104A of the Community Development Banking Act or the ECIP Interim Final Rule,
or (iii) any additional rules or regulations established in connection with ECIP that further the
purposes of Section 104A of the Community Development Banking Act, Treasury may propose a
remedy that Treasury determines, in its sole discretion, is proportional to the breach, violation or
default. If Treasury makes such a determination and proposes a remedy under this Section 5.3(a),
Treasury shall notify the Recipient in writing of its proposed determination of a breach, violation
or default, provide an explanation of the nature of the breach, violation or default, and specify the
proposed remedy. Upon receipt of such notice, the Recipient shall, within seven (7) days, accept
-24-

FOR REFERENCE ONLY – NOT FOR EXECUTION – UPDATED 3.25.2022
Treasury’s proposed remedy, propose an alternative remedy, or provide information and
documentation contesting Treasury’s proposed determination. Treasury shall consider any such
submission by the Recipient and make a final written determination, which will state Treasury’s
findings regarding the breach, violation or default and the remedy to be imposed.
(b)
If Treasury makes a final determination under Section 5.3(a) that a breach, violation
or default has occurred, Treasury may, in its sole discretion, require additional reporting or
monitoring; initiate suspension or debarment proceedings as authorized under 2 C.F.R. Part 180;
or take any such other action as Treasury, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate and determines,
in its sole discretion, to be proportional to the breach, violation or default; provided, however, that
Treasury shall not require the Preferred Shares to be redeemed as a remedy under this Section 5.3
and such redemption shall be governed exclusively by the terms and conditions set forth in the
Certificate of Designations.
(c)
Treasury may make a final determination regarding a breach, violation or default
without regard to Section 5.3(a) if Treasury determines, in its sole discretion, that such
determination is necessary to protect a material interest of the federal government. In such event,
Treasury shall notify the Recipient of the remedy that Treasury, in its sole discretion, shall impose,
after which the Recipient may contest Treasury’s final determination or propose an alternative
remedy in writing to Treasury. Following the receipt of such a submission by the Recipient,
Treasury may, in its sole discretion, maintain or alter its final determination.
(d)
Instead of, or in addition to, the remedies listed above, Treasury may refer any
breach, violation or default or any allegations of fraud, waste, or abuse to the Inspector General of
the Treasury.
(e)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a determination by the Recipient not to declare
dividends or a default in the payment of dividends that have been declared for any dividend period
shall not be subject to this Section 5.3.

FOR REFERENCE ONLY – NOT FOR EXECUTION – UPDATED 3.25.2022
may be reasonably requested by the Investor to facilitate the sale of the Preferred Shares, including,
as set forth in Section 6.4, provided that:
(i)
The Investor shall not Transfer any Preferred Shares if such Transfer would
(A) require the Recipient to be subject to the periodic reporting requirements of Section 13
or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and the Recipient was not already subject to such
requirements or (B) if the Recipient is a national bank or federal savings association,
require the Recipient to register the securities under Part 16;
(ii)
Prior to the sale of all or a portion of the Preferred Shares by the Investor to
a third party, the Investor shall deliver to the Recipient a notice (“ROFR Notice”) setting
forth the number of Preferred Shares proposed to be sold (the “Offered Shares”) and the
cash purchase price per Preferred Share (which shall reflect a valuation of the Preferred
Shares to be sold determined by an independent third party) (the “Offer Price”) and other
terms and conditions on which the Investor proposes to sell the Offered Shares. Within ten
(10) days from the date the Investor delivers the ROFR Notice to the Recipient (the
“Review Period”), the Recipient shall deliver to the Investor a written notice (a “Response
Notice”) stating whether it elects to purchase all the Offered Shares and irrevocably
offering to purchase such number of Offered Shares on the terms contained in the ROFR
Notice, which purchase shall, as applicable, be conditional upon receipt of prior approval
from the Recipient’s Appropriate Federal Banking Agency. If the Recipient does not
deliver a Response Notice in accordance with this Section 6.3(a)(ii) prior to the expiration
of the Review Period, then the Recipient will be deemed to have elected not to exercise the
right of first refusal specified in the ROFR Notice and the Investor shall be free to sell the
Offered Shares to a third party on the terms reflected in the ROFR Notice;

Insured CDFI (an “Eligible Nonprofit”); and
(v)
Subject to Section 5.2(b), the Investor shall not sell the Preferred Shares to
a third party (other than to an Eligible Nonprofit) prior to the Tenth Anniversary without
the prior consent of the Recipient (which may not be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or
withheld). In addition, subject to Section 5.2(b), the Investor shall provide the Recipient
eighteen (18) months’ advance notice of the Investor’s intent to Transfer the Preferred
Shares to a third party other than an Eligible Nonprofit.
(b)
In furtherance of the foregoing, the Recipient shall provide reasonable cooperation
to facilitate any Transfers of the Preferred Shares, including, as is reasonable under the
circumstances, by furnishing such information concerning the Recipient and its business as a
proposed transferee may reasonably request and making management of the Recipient reasonably

investment vehicle or other entity controlled by the Investor, or to any Affiliate of the Investor.

information” available, as provided in Section (c)(1) of Rule 144 (if the Recipient is a “Reporting
Issuer” within the meaning of Rule 144) or in Section (c)(2) of Rule 144 (if the Recipient is a
“Non-Reporting Issuer” within the meaning of Rule 144), in either case for such time period as
necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144, (y), to the extent any Holder is relying on the socalled “Section 4(a)(1½)” exemption to sell any of its Preferred Shares, prepare and provide to
such Holder such information, including the preparation of private offering memoranda or
circulars or financial information, as the Holder may reasonably request to enable the sale of the
Preferred Shares pursuant to such exemption, or (z) to the extent any Holder is relying on

federal savings association, as such Rule is incorporated into Part 16) to sell any of its Preferred
Shares, prepare and provide to such Holder the information required pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4),

enable such Holder to sell Preferred Shares without registration under the Securities Act (or, in the
case of a Recipient that is a national bank or federal savings association, under Part 16) within the
limitations of the exemptions provided by (i) the provisions of the Securities Act or any
interpretations thereof or related thereto by the SEC, including transactions based on the so-called
“Section 4(a)(1½)” and other similar transactions, (ii) Rule 144 or Rule 144A under the Securities
Act, as such rules may be amended from time to time, or (iii) any similar rule or regulation
hereafter adopted by the SEC (or, in the case of a Recipient that is a national bank or a federal
savings association, as applicable under Part 16); provided that the Recipient shall not be required
to take any action described in this Section 6.4(a) that would cause the Recipient to become subject
to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act if the Recipient was not
subject to such requirements prior to taking such action. Upon the request of any Holder, the
Recipient will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such
requirements and, if not, the specifics thereof.
(b)
If the Recipient is a state-chartered bank or savings association, the Investor and
Recipient acknowledge that, as of the Signing Date, the offer and sale of the Preferred Shares is a
security of an insured depository institution and, accordingly, the transfer of such securities is
exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and qualification and registration
requirements under state law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the Preferred Shares are
subject to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(2) or Section 3(a)(5) of the Securities Act, the
provisions of this Section 6.4 shall be interpreted so as to nonetheless provide a Holder of Preferred
Shares with the benefit of the cooperation of the Recipient to facilitate a sale of the Preferred
Shares, including the preparation and provision of materials referenced in Section 6.4(a)(1)(y).

(c)
The Recipient agrees to indemnify Investor, Investor’s officials, officers, directors,
employees, agents, representatives and Affiliates, and each person, if any, that controls Investor
within the meaning of the Securities Act (each, an “Indemnitee”), against any and all losses, claims,
damages, actions, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable fees, expenses and
disbursements of attorneys and other professionals incurred in connection with investigating,
defending, settling, compromising or paying any such losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities,
costs and expenses), joint or several, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of material fact contained in any document or report provided by the Recipient
pursuant to this Section 6.4 or any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading.
(d)
If the indemnification provided for in Section 6.4(c) is unavailable to an Indemnitee
with respect to any losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs or expenses referred to therein
or is insufficient to hold the Indemnitee harmless as contemplated therein, then the Recipient, in
lieu of indemnifying such Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
Indemnitee as a result of such losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs or expenses in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnitee, on the one hand,
and the Recipient, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted
in such losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs or expenses as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Recipient, on the one hand, and of the
Indemnitee, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other factors, whether
the untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact relates to information
supplied by the Recipient or by the Indemnitee and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access
to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; the Recipient and
Investor agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6.4(d)
were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take
account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 6.4(b). No Indemnitee guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be
entitled to contribution from the Recipient if the Recipient was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation.
Section 6.5 Depositary Shares. Upon request by the Investor at any time following the
Closing Date, the Recipient shall promptly enter into a depositary arrangement, pursuant to
customary agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Investor and with a depositary reasonably
acceptable to the Investor, pursuant to which the Preferred Shares may be deposited and depositary
shares, each representing a fraction of a Preferred Share, as specified by the Investor, may be
issued. From and after the execution of any such depositary arrangement, and the deposit of any
Preferred Shares, as applicable, pursuant thereto, the depositary shares issued pursuant thereto
shall be deemed “Preferred Shares” and, as applicable, “Registrable Securities” for purposes of
this Agreement.
Section 6.6

Expenses and Further Assurances.

(a)
Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, each of the parties hereto will bear
and pay all costs and expenses incurred by it or on its behalf in connection with the transactions
-30-

FOR REFERENCE ONLY – NOT FOR EXECUTION – UPDATED 3.25.2022
contemplated under this Agreement, including fees and expenses of its own financial or other
consultants, investment bankers, accountants and counsel.
(b)
The Recipient shall, at the Recipient’s sole cost and expense, (i) furnish to the
Investor all instruments, documents and other agreements required to be furnished by the Recipient
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including any documents required to be delivered
pursuant to Section 6.4 above, or which are reasonably requested by the Investor in connection
therewith; (ii) execute and deliver to the Investor such documents, instruments, certificates,
assignments and other writings, and do such other acts necessary or desirable, to evidence, preserve
and/or protect the Preferred Shares purchased by the Investor, as Investor may reasonably require;
and (iii) do and execute all and such further lawful and reasonable acts, conveyances and
assurances for the better and more effective carrying out of the intents and purposes of this
Agreement, as the Investor shall reasonably require from time to time.
Section 6.7 Noncompliance. The Recipient acknowledges and agrees that this
Agreement is entered into under Section 104A of the Community Development Banking Act and
that the ECIP Interim Final Rule was promulgated under that Act and, accordingly, where
applicable, the enforcement of the provisions of the Agreement and the ECIP Interim Final Rule
(and any violations thereof) are subject to 12 U.S.C. § 4717. The Recipient further acknowledges
and agrees that the Investor may inform the Appropriate Federal Banking Agency of Recipient’s
apparent noncompliance.

Form S-3, then the Recipient shall not be obligated to file a Shelf Registration Statement unless
and until requested to do so in writing by the Investor.
(b)
Any registration pursuant to Section 1.2(a) of this Annex E shall be effected
by means of a Shelf Registration Statement on an appropriate form under Rule 415 under the
Securities Act (or Part 16, if the Recipient is a national bank or federal savings association). If the
Investor or any other Holder intends to distribute any Registrable Securities by means of an
underwritten offering it shall promptly so advise the Recipient and the Recipient shall take all
reasonable steps to facilitate such distribution, including the actions required pursuant to
Section 1.2(d) of this Annex E; provided that the Recipient shall not be required to facilitate an
underwritten offering of Registrable Securities unless (i) the expected gross proceeds from such
offering exceed $200,000 or (ii) such underwritten offering includes all the outstanding
Registrable Securities held by such Holder. The lead underwriters in any such distribution shall
be selected by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be distributed.
(c)
The Recipient shall not be required to effect a registration (including a
resale of Registrable Securities from an effective Shelf Registration Statement) or an underwritten
offering pursuant to Section 1.2 of this Annex E: (A) with respect to securities that are not
Registrable Securities; or (B) if the Recipient has notified the Investor and all other Holders that
in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, it would be materially detrimental to the
Recipient or its securityholders for such registration or underwritten offering to be effected at such
time, in which event the Recipient shall have the right to defer such registration or offering for a
period of not more than forty-five (45) days after receipt of the request of the Investor or any other
Holder; provided that such right to delay a registration or underwritten offering shall be exercised
by the Recipient (1) only if the Recipient has generally exercised (or is concurrently exercising)
similar black-out rights against holders of similar securities that have registration rights and (2)
not more than three times in any twelve (12)-month period and not more than ninety (90) days in
the aggregate in any twelve (12)-month period. The Recipient shall notify the Holders of the date
of any anticipated termination of any such deferral period prior to such date.
(d)
If during any period when an effective Shelf Registration Statement is not
available, the Recipient proposes to register any of its equity securities, other than a registration
pursuant to Section 1.2(a) of this Annex E or a Special Registration, and the registration form to
be filed may be used for the registration or qualification for distribution of Registrable Securities,
the Recipient will give prompt written notice to the Investor and all other Holders of its intention
to effect such a registration (but in no event less than ten (10) days prior to the anticipated filing
date) and will include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the
Recipient has received written requests for inclusion therein within ten (10) business days after the
date of the Recipient’s notice (a “Piggyback Registration”). Any such person that has made such
a written request may withdraw its Registrable Securities from such Piggyback Registration by
giving written notice to the Recipient and the managing underwriter, if any, on or before the fifth
(5th) business day prior to the planned effective date of such Piggyback Registration. The Recipient
may terminate or withdraw any registration under this Section 1.2(d) prior to the effectiveness of
such registration, whether or not Investor or any other Holders have elected to include Registrable
Securities in such registration.

Annex E-3

FOR REFERENCE ONLY – NOT FOR EXECUTION – UPDATED 3.25.2022
(e)
If the registration referred to in Section 1.2(d) of this Annex E is proposed
to be underwritten, the Recipient will so advise Investor and all other Holders as a part of the
written notice given pursuant to Section 1.2(d) of this Annex E. In such event, the right of Investor
and all other Holders to registration pursuant to Section 1.2 of this Annex E will be conditioned
upon such persons’ participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such person’s
Registrable Securities in the underwriting if such securities are of the same class of securities as
the securities to be offered in the underwritten offering, and each such person will (together with
the Recipient and the other persons distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter
into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected
for such underwriting by the Recipient; provided that the Investor (as opposed to other Holders)
shall not be required to indemnify any person in connection with any registration. If any
participating person disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such person may elect to
withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Recipient, the managing underwriters and the Investor
(if the Investor is participating in the underwriting).
(f)
If either (x) the Recipient grants “piggyback” registration rights to one or
more third parties to include their securities in an underwritten offering under the Shelf
Registration Statement pursuant to Section 1.2(b) of this Annex E or (y) a Piggyback Registration
under Section 1.2(d) of this Annex E relates to an underwritten offering on behalf of the Recipient,
and in either case the managing underwriters advise the Recipient that in their reasonable opinion
the number of securities requested to be included in such offering exceeds the number which can
be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of such offering (including an adverse effect
on the per share offering price), the Recipient will include in such offering only such number of
securities that in the reasonable opinion of such managing underwriters can be sold without
adversely affecting the marketability of the offering (including an adverse effect on the per share
offering price), which securities will be so included in the following order of priority: (A) first, in
the case of a Piggyback Registration under Section 1.2(d) of this Annex E, the securities the
Recipient proposes to sell, (B) then the Registrable Securities of the Investor and all other Holders
who have requested inclusion of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 1.2(b) or Section 1.2(d)
of this Annex E, as applicable, pro rata on the basis of the aggregate number of such securities or
shares owned by each such person and (C) lastly, any other securities of the Recipient that have
been requested to be so included, subject to the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that
if the Recipient has, prior to the Signing Date, entered into an agreement with respect to its
securities that is inconsistent with the order of priority contemplated hereby then it shall apply the
order of priority in such conflicting agreement to the extent that this Annex E would otherwise
result in a breach under such agreement.
1.3
Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection
with any registration, qualification or compliance hereunder shall be borne by the Recipient. All
Selling Expenses incurred in connection with any registrations hereunder shall be borne by the
holders of the securities so registered pro rata on the basis of the aggregate offering or sale price
of the securities so registered.
1.4
Obligations of the Recipient. The Recipient shall use its reasonable best
efforts, for so long as there are Registrable Securities outstanding, to take such actions as are under
its control to not become an ineligible issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) and
to remain a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) if it has
Annex E-4

FOR REFERENCE ONLY – NOT FOR EXECUTION – UPDATED 3.25.2022
such status on the Signing Date or becomes eligible for such status thereafter. In addition,
whenever required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities or facilitate the
distribution of Registrable Securities pursuant to an effective Shelf Registration Statement, the
Recipient shall, as expeditiously as reasonably practicable:
(a)
Prepare and file with the SEC (or the OCC, if the Recipient is a national
bank or federal savings association) a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment with
respect to a proposed offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to an effective registration
statement, subject to Section 1.4 of this Annex E, keep such registration statement effective and
keep such prospectus supplement current until the securities described therein are no longer
Registrable Securities. The plan of distribution included in such registration statement shall
include, among other things, an underwritten offering, ordinary brokerage transactions and
transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers, block trades, privately negotiated
transactions, the writing or settlement of options or other derivative transactions and any other
method permitted pursuant to applicable law, and any combination of any such methods of sale.
(b)
Prepare and file with the SEC (or the OCC, if the Recipient is a national
bank or federal savings association) such amendments and supplements to the applicable
registration statement and the prospectus or prospectus supplement used in connection with such
registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act (or
Part 16, if the Recipient is a national bank or federal savings association) with respect to the
disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement.
(c)
Furnish to the Holders and any underwriters such number of copies of the
applicable registration statement and each such amendment and supplement thereto (including in
each case all exhibits) and of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with
the requirements of the Securities Act (or Part 16, if the Recipient is a national bank or federal
savings association), and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate
the disposition of Registrable Securities owned or to be distributed by them.
(d)
Use its reasonable best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered
by such registration statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions
as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders or any managing underwriter(s), to keep such
registration or qualification in effect for so long as such registration statement remains in effect,
and to take any other action which may be reasonably necessary to enable such seller to
consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the securities owned by such Holder; provided
that the Recipient shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify
to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions.
(e)
Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities at any time when a prospectus
relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act (or Part 16, if the Recipient is
a national bank or federal savings association) of the happening of any event as a result of which
the applicable prospectus, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits
to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading in light of the circumstances then existing.

Annex E-5

FOR REFERENCE ONLY – NOT FOR EXECUTION – UPDATED 3.25.2022
(f)

Give written notice to the Holders:

(i)
when any registration statement or any amendment thereto has been
filed with the SEC (or Part 16, if the Recipient is a national bank or federal savings
association) (except for any amendment effected by the filing of a document with
the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act (or with the OCC, if the Recipient is a
national bank or federal savings association)) and when such registration statement
or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;
(ii)
of any request by the SEC (or the OCC, if the Recipient is a national
bank or federal savings association) for amendments or supplements to any
registration statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional
information;
(iii) of the issuance by the SEC (or the OCC, if the Recipient is a national
bank or federal savings association) of any stop order suspending the effectiveness
of any registration statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose;
(iv)
of the receipt by the Recipient or its legal counsel of any notification
with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the applicable Registrable
Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any
proceeding for such purpose;
(v)
of the happening of any event that requires the Recipient to make
changes in any effective registration statement or the prospectus related to the
registration statement in order to make the statements therein not misleading (which
notice shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the prospectus
until the requisite changes have been made); and
(vi)
if at any time the representations and warranties of the Recipient
contained in any underwriting agreement contemplated by Section 1.4(j) of this
Annex E cease to be true and correct.
(g)
Use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance or obtain the
withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement referred to in
Section 1.4(f)(iii) of this Annex E at the earliest practicable time.

Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 1.4(e) or
1.4(f)(v) of this Annex E, promptly prepare a post-effective amendment to such registration
statement or a supplement to the related prospectus or file any other required document so that, as
thereafter delivered to the Holders and any underwriters, the prospectus will not contain an untrue
statement 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. If the Recipient
notifies the Holders in accordance with Section 1.4(f)(v) of this Annex E to suspend the use of the
prospectus until the requisite changes to the prospectus have been made, then the Holders and any
underwriters shall suspend use of such prospectus and use their reasonable best efforts to return to
the Recipient all copies of such prospectus (at the Recipient’s expense) other than permanent file
copies then in such Holders’ or underwriters’ possession. The total number of days that any such
Annex E-6

FOR REFERENCE ONLY – NOT FOR EXECUTION – UPDATED 3.25.2022
suspension may be in effect in any twelve (12)-month period shall not exceed ninety (90) days.
The Recipient shall notify the Holders of the date of any anticipated termination of any such
suspension period prior to such date.
(i)

transfer agent in settling any offering or sale of Registrable Securities, including with respect to
the transfer of physical stock certificates into book-entry form in accordance with any procedures
reasonably requested by the Holders or any managing underwriter(s).
(j)
If an underwritten offering is requested pursuant to Section 1.2(b) of this
Annex E, enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form, scope and substance and take
all such other actions reasonably requested by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable
Securities being sold in connection therewith or by the managing underwriter(s), if any, to expedite
or facilitate the underwritten disposition of such Registrable Securities, and in connection
therewith in any underwritten offering (including making members of management and executives
of the Recipient available to participate in “road shows”, similar sales events and other marketing
activities), (A) make such representations and warranties to the Holders that are selling
stockholders and the managing underwriter(s), if any, with respect to the business of the Recipient
and its subsidiaries, and the Shelf Registration Statement, prospectus and documents, if any,
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein, in each case, in customary form,
substance and scope, and, if true, confirm the same if and when requested, (B) use its reasonable
best efforts to furnish the underwriters with opinions and “10b-5” letters of counsel to the
Recipient, addressed to the managing underwriter(s), if any, covering the matters customarily
covered in such opinions and letters requested in underwritten offerings, (C) use its reasonable
best efforts to obtain “cold comfort” letters from the independent certified public accountants of
the Recipient (and, if necessary, any other independent certified public accountants of any business
acquired by the Recipient for which financial statements and financial data are included in the
Shelf Registration Statement) who have certified the financial statements included in such Shelf
Registration Statement, addressed to each of the managing underwriter(s), if any, such letters to
be in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in “cold comfort”
letters, (D) if an underwriting agreement is entered into, the same shall contain indemnification
provisions and procedures customary in underwritten offerings (provided that the Investor shall
not be obligated to provide any indemnity), and (E) deliver such documents and certificates as may
be reasonably requested by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold in
connection therewith, their counsel and the managing underwriter(s), if any, to evidence the
continued validity of the representations and warranties made pursuant to clause (A) above and to
evidence compliance with any customary conditions contained in the underwriting agreement or
other agreement entered into by the Recipient.
(k)
Make available for inspection by a representative of Holders that are selling
stockholders, the managing underwriter(s), if any, and any attorneys or accountants retained by
such Holders or managing underwriter(s), at the offices where normally kept, during reasonable
business hours, financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the
Recipient, and cause the officers, directors and employees of the Recipient to supply all
information in each case reasonably requested (and of the type customarily provided in connection
with due diligence conducted in connection with a registered public offering of securities) by any
Annex E-7

FOR REFERENCE ONLY – NOT FOR EXECUTION – UPDATED 3.25.2022
such representative, managing underwriter(s), attorney or accountant in connection with such Shelf
Registration Statement.
(l)
Use reasonable best efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities to be
listed on each national securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Recipient are
then listed or, if no similar securities issued by the Recipient are then listed on any national
securities exchange, use its reasonable best efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities to be
listed on such securities exchange as the Investor may designate.
(m)
If requested by Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being
registered and/or sold in connection therewith, or the managing underwriter(s), if any, promptly
include in a prospectus supplement or amendment such information as the Holders of a majority
of the Registrable Securities being registered and/or sold in connection therewith or managing
underwriter(s), if any, may reasonably request in order to permit the intended method of
distribution of such securities and make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or such
amendment as soon as practicable after the Recipient has received such request.
(n)
Timely provide to its security holders earning statements satisfying the
provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder.
1.5
Suspension of Sales. Upon receipt of written notice from the Recipient that
a registration statement, prospectus or prospectus supplement contains or may contain an untrue
statement of a material fact or omits or may omit to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or that circumstances exist that
make inadvisable use of such registration statement, prospectus or prospectus supplement, the
Investor and each Holder of Registrable Securities shall forthwith discontinue disposition of
Registrable Securities until the Investor and/or Holder has received copies of a supplemented or
amended prospectus or prospectus supplement, or until the Investor and/or such Holder is advised
in writing by the Recipient that the use of the prospectus and, if applicable, prospectus supplement
may be resumed, and, if so directed by the Recipient, the Investor and/or such Holder shall deliver
to the Recipient (at the Recipient’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in
the Investor and/or such Holder’s possession, of the prospectus and, if applicable, prospectus
supplement covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice. The
total number of days that any such suspension may be in effect in any twelve (12)-month period
shall not exceed ninety (90) days. The Recipient shall notify the Investor and the Holders prior to
the anticipated termination of any such suspension period of the date of such anticipated
termination.
1.6
Termination of Registration Rights. A Holder’s registration rights as to any
securities held by such Holder (and its Affiliates, partners, members and former members) shall
not be available unless such securities are Registrable Securities.
1.7

Furnishing Information.

(a)
Neither the Investor nor any Holder shall use any free writing prospectus
(as defined in Rule 405) in connection with the sale of Registrable Securities without the prior
written consent of the Recipient.
Annex E-8

FOR REFERENCE ONLY – NOT FOR EXECUTION – UPDATED 3.25.2022
(b)
It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Recipient to take
any action pursuant to Section 1.4 of this Annex E that Investor and/or the selling Holders and the
underwriters, if any, shall furnish to the Recipient such information regarding themselves, the
Registrable Securities held by them and the intended method of disposition of such securities as
shall be required to effect the registered offering of their Registrable Securities.
1.8

Indemnification.

(a)
The Recipient agrees to indemnify each Holder and, if a Holder is a person
other than an individual, such Holder’s officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and
Affiliates, and each person, if any, that controls a Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act
(each, an “Indemnitee”), against any and all losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs and
expenses (including reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of attorneys and other
professionals incurred in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or
paying any such losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs and expenses), joint or several,
arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of material fact
contained in any registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus
contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto or any documents incorporated
therein by reference or contained in any free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405) prepared
by the Recipient or authorized by it in writing for use by such Holder (or any amendment or
supplement thereto); or any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading; provided, that the Recipient shall not be liable to such Indemnitee in any
such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in
respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based upon (A) an untrue statement or omission made
in such registration statement, including any such preliminary prospectus or final prospectus
contained therein or any such amendments or supplements thereto or contained in any free writing
prospectus (as defined in Rule 405) prepared by the Recipient or authorized by it in writing for use
by such Holder (or any amendment or supplement thereto), in reliance upon and in conformity
with information regarding such Indemnitee or its plan of distribution or ownership interests which
was furnished in writing to the Recipient by such Indemnitee for use in connection with such
registration statement, including any such preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained
therein or any such amendments or supplements thereto, or (B) offers or sales effected by or on
behalf of such Indemnitee “by means of” (as defined in Rule 159A) a “free writing prospectus”
(as defined in Rule 405) that was not authorized in writing by the Recipient.
(b)
If the indemnification provided for in Section 1.8(a) of this Annex E is
unavailable to an Indemnitee with respect to any losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs
or expenses referred to therein or is insufficient to hold the Indemnitee harmless as contemplated
therein, then the Recipient, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amount
paid or payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities,
costs or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnitee,
on the one hand, and the Recipient, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or
omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs or expenses as
well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Recipient, on the one
hand, and of the Indemnitee, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other
factors, whether the untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact relates
Annex E-9

FOR REFERENCE ONLY – NOT FOR EXECUTION – UPDATED 3.25.2022
to information supplied by the Recipient or by the Indemnitee and the parties’ relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
omission; the Recipient and each Holder agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 1.8(b) of this Annex E were determined by pro rata allocation or by any
other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in
Section 1.8(a) of this Annex E. No Indemnitee guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from the Recipient
if the Recipient was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
1.9
Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights of the Investor to registration
of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 1.2 of this Annex E may be assigned by the Investor
to a transferee or assignee of Registrable Securities; provided, however, the transferor shall, within
ten (10) days after such transfer, furnish to the Recipient written notice of the name and address of
such transferee or assignee and the number and type of Registrable Securities that are being
assigned.
1.10 Clear Market. With respect to any underwritten offering of Registrable
Securities by the Investor or other Holders pursuant to this Annex E, the Recipient agrees not to
effect (other than pursuant to such registration or pursuant to a Special Registration) any public
sale or distribution, or to file any Shelf Registration Statement (other than such registration or a
Special Registration) covering any preferred stock of the Recipient or any securities convertible
into or exchangeable or exercisable for preferred stock of the Recipient, during the period not to
exceed ten (10) days prior and sixty (60) days following the effective date of such offering or such
longer period up to ninety (90) days as may be requested by the managing underwriter for such
underwritten offering. The Recipient also agrees to cause such of its directors and senior executive
officers to execute and deliver customary lock-up agreements in such form and for such time
period up to ninety (90) days as may be requested by the managing underwriter.
1.11 Forfeiture of Rights. At any time, any holder of Registrable Securities
(including any Holder) may elect to forfeit its rights set forth in this Annex E from that date
forward; provided, that a Holder forfeiting such rights shall nonetheless be entitled to participate
under Section 1.2(d) – (f) of this Annex E in any Pending Underwritten Offering to the same extent
that such Holder would have been entitled to if the holder had not withdrawn; and provided,
further, that no such forfeiture shall terminate a Holder’s rights or obligations under Section 1.7
of this Annex E with respect to any prior registration or Pending Underwritten Offering.
1.12 Specific Performance. The parties hereto acknowledge that there would be
no adequate remedy at law if the Recipient fails to perform any of its obligations under this
Annex E and that the Investor and the Holders from time to time may be irreparably harmed by
any such failure, and accordingly agree that the Investor and such Holders, in addition to any other
remedy to which they may be entitled at law or in equity, to the fullest extent permitted and
enforceable under applicable law shall be entitled to compel specific performance of the
obligations of the Recipient under this Section 1.12 in accordance with the terms and conditions
of this Annex E.
1.13 No Inconsistent Agreements. The Recipient shall not, on or after the
Signing Date, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities that may impair the rights
Annex E-10

FOR REFERENCE ONLY – NOT FOR EXECUTION – UPDATED 3.25.2022
granted to the Investor and the Holders under this Annex E or that otherwise conflicts with the
provisions hereof in any manner that may impair the rights granted to the Investor and the Holders
under this Annex E. In the event the Recipient has, prior to the Signing Date, entered into any
agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Investor
and the Holders under this Annex E (including agreements that are inconsistent with the order of
priority contemplated by Section 1.2(f) of Annex E) or that may otherwise conflict with the
provisions hereof, the Recipient shall use its reasonable best efforts to amend such agreements to
ensure they are consistent with the provisions of this Annex E. Any transaction entered into by
the Recipient that would reasonably be expected to require the inclusion in a Shelf Registration
Statement or any report of the Recipient filed with the SEC (or the OCC, if the Recipient is a
national bank or federal savings association) of any separate financial statements pursuant to
Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X or pro forma financial statements pursuant to Article 11 of
Regulation S-X shall include provisions requiring the Recipient’s counterparty to provide any
information necessary to allow the Recipient to comply with its obligation hereunder.
1.14 Certain Offerings by the Investor. An “underwritten” offering or other
disposition shall include any distribution of such securities on behalf of the Investor by one or
more broker-dealers, an “underwriting agreement” shall include any purchase agreement entered
into by such broker-dealers, and any “registration statement” or “prospectus” shall include any
offering document approved by the Recipient and used in connection with such distribution.
1.15 Other Cooperation. If the Recipient is a state-chartered bank or savings
association and the transfer or sale of the Registrable Securities is subject to any requirements
under applicable state law or regulation relating to such transfer or sale, the Recipient will
cooperate and assist in complying with such law and regulation in order to provide the Holders
with the benefit of rights to effect or participate in broadly distributed underwritten offerings of
the Registrable Securities.
1.16 State-Chartered Banks and Savings Associations. If the Recipient is a statechartered bank or savings association, the Investor and Recipient acknowledge that, as of the
Signing Date, the Registrable Securities are securities of an insured depository institution and,
accordingly, the transfer of such securities is exempt from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act and qualification and registration requirements under state law. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, so long as the Registrable Securities are subject to the exemption provided by
Section 3(a)(2) or Section 3(a)(5) of the Securities Act, the provisions of this Annex E shall, to the
extent practicable and where applicable, be interpreted so as to nonetheless provide the Holders
with the benefit of rights to effect or participate in broadly distributed underwritten offerings of
the Registrable Securities. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, so long as the
Registrable Securities are subject to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(2) or Section 3(a)(5)
of the Securities Act: (i) all references to the “SEC” shall be deemed to refer to the Applicable
Securities Regulator and all references to provisions of the Securities Act shall be deemed to refer
to the corresponding provision of the applicable banking law or regulation, if any; and (ii) if, under
such applicable laws, rules and regulations of the Applicable Securities Regulator, no registration
statement or correlative filing is required to be made, then (A) any references herein to a
“registration statement” or “prospectus” shall be deemed to refer to an offering memorandum or
other offering materials with respect to the applicable transfer of Registrable Securities, (B) any
references herein to the filing of a registration statement shall be deemed to refer instead to the
Annex E-11

FOR REFERENCE ONLY – NOT FOR EXECUTION – UPDATED 3.25.2022
time when such broadly distributed underwritten offering is proposed to be commenced and
(C) any references herein to the preparation and filing of a registration statement or prospectus
shall be deemed to refer to the preparation of an offering memorandum or other appropriate
offering materials.

Annex E-12
