Ladies and Gentlemen:

Beverly Hills Bancorp Inc., a bank holding company incorporated in Delaware (the “Company”) and Beverly Hills Statutory Trust II, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trust” and, collectively with the Company, the “Offerors”), propose, subject to the terms and conditions stated herein, to issue and sell to Zions First National Bank (the “Purchaser”), 5,000 of Floating Rate Capital Securities of the Trust (the “Debt Securities”), having a stated liquidation amount of $1,000 per capital security and bearing a variable distribution rate per annum, reset quarterly, equal to LIBOR (as defined in the Indenture (as defined below)) plus 1.78% (the “Floating Rate”).

The Debt Securities will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a subordinated basis by the Company with respect to distributions and amounts payable upon liquidation, redemption or repayment (the “Guarantee”) pursuant to the Guarantee Agreement (the “Guarantee Agreement”), to be dated as of the Closing Date specified in Section 3 hereof, and executed and delivered by the Company and Wilmington Trust Company, as trustee (the “Guarantee Trustee”), for the benefit of the holders from time to time of the Debt Securities. The entire proceeds from the sale of the Debt Securities will be combined with the entire proceeds from the sale by the Trust to the Company of its common securities (the “Common Securities”), and will be used by the Trust to purchase $5,155,000 in principal amount of the Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Debt Securities due 2037 of the Company (the “Subordinated Debt Securities”). The Debt Securities and the Common Securities of the Trust will be issued pursuant to the Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust (the “Declaration”), to be dated as of the Closing Date among the Company, as sponsor, the Administrator(s) named therein (the “Administrators”), Wilmington Trust Company, as Delaware trustee (the “Delaware Trustee”),

Wilmington Trust Company, as institutional trustee (the “Institutional Trustee”), and the holders from time to time of undivided beneficial interests in the assets of the Trust. The Subordinated Debt Securities will be issued pursuant to an Indenture, to be dated as of the Closing Date (the “Indenture”), between the Company and Wilmington Trust Company, as indenture trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”).

The Debt Securities, the Common Securities and the Subordinated Debt Securities are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities.” This Agreement, the Indenture, the Declaration, the Guarantee Agreement, the Common Securities Subscription Agreement and the Securities are referred to collectively as the “Operative Documents.” Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the respective meanings specified in the Declaration.

The Securities have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

1. Representations and Warranties. The Company and the Trust jointly and severally represent and warrant to, and agree with you as set forth below in this Section 1 (provided, that, none of the following representations or warranties apply or relate to any acts or omissions by you).

(e) Neither the Company nor the Trust is, nor after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Securities will be, an “investment company” or an entity “controlled” by an “investment company,” required to be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”).

(f) Neither the Company nor the Trust has paid or agreed to pay to any person any compensation for soliciting another to purchase any of the Securities.

(g) The Trust has been duly created and is validly existing in good standing as a statutory trust under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, 12 Del. C. 3801, et seq. (the “Statutory

2

Trust Act”) with the power and authority to own property and to conduct the business it transacts and proposes to transact and to enter into and perform its obligations under the Operative Documents. The Trust is duly qualified to transact business as a foreign entity and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is necessary, except where the failure to so qualify or be in good standing would not have a material adverse effect on such Trust. The Trust is not a party to or otherwise bound by any agreement other than the Operative Documents. The Trust is and will, under current law, be classified for federal income tax purposes as a grantor trust and not as an association taxable as a corporation.

(h) The Declaration has been duly authorized by the Company and, on the Closing Date, will have been duly executed and delivered by the Company and the Administrators of the Trust, and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Delaware Trustee and the Institutional Trustee, be a valid and binding obligation of the Company and such Administrators, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity (“Bankruptcy and Equity”). Each of the Administrators of the Trust is an employee or a director of the Company and has been duly authorized by the Company to execute and deliver the Declaration.

(i) Each of the Guarantee Agreement and the Indenture has been duly authorized by the Company and, on the Closing Date will have been duly executed and delivered by the Company, and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Guarantee Trustee, in the case of the Guarantee, and by the Indenture Trustee, in the case of the Indenture, be a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to Bankruptcy and Equity.

(j) The Debt Securities and the Common Securities have been duly authorized by the Declaration and, when issued and delivered against payment therefor on the Closing Date to you, in the case of the Debt Securities, and to the Company, in the case of the Common Securities, each in accordance with this Agreement, the Declaration and the Common Securities Subscription Agreement, respectively, will be validly issued and represent undivided beneficial interests in the assets of the Trust. The issuance of the Debt Securities or the Common Securities is not subject to any preemptive or other similar rights. On the Closing Date, all of the issued and outstanding Common Securities will be directly owned by the Company free and clear of any pledge, security interest, claim, lien or other encumbrance.

(k) The Subordinated Debt Securities have been duly authorized by the Company and, at the Closing Date, will have been duly executed and delivered to the Indenture Trustee for authentication in accordance with the Indenture and the debenture subscription agreement, and, when authenticated in the manner provided for in the Indenture and delivered against payment therefor by the Trust, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company entitled to the benefits of the Indenture enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, subject to Bankruptcy and Equity.

(l) This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and the Trust.

3

(m) The Trust is not in violation of any provision of the Statutory Trust Act and when the Declaration is executed and delivered will not be in violation of the Declaration. The execution, delivery and performance of the Operative Documents to which it is a party by the Company or the Trust, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein or therein, will not conflict with or constitute a breach of, or a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or other encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Trust, the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries pursuant to any contract, indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or other instrument to which the Trust, the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of them may be bound, or to which any of the property or assets of any of them is subject, except for a conflict, breach, default, lien, charge or encumbrance which could not reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein or therein, nor will such action result in any violation of the Declaration or the Statutory Trust Act or require the consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency or body.

(n) The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of Delaware, with all requisite corporate power and authority to own its properties and conduct the business it transacts and proposes to transact, and is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction where the nature of its activities requires such qualification except where the failure of the Company to be so qualified would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a materially adverse effect on the condition (financial or otherwise), earnings or business of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, whether or not occurring in the ordinary course of business (a “Material Adverse Effect”).

(o) Each of the Company’s subsidiaries is listed in Schedule 1 (the “Subsidiaries”) and has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as an entity in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is chartered or organized, with all requisite corporate power and authority to own its properties and conduct the business it transacts and proposes to transact, and is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction where the nature of its activities requires such qualification except where the failure of such Subsidiary to be so qualified would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(p) The Company and each of its Subsidiaries have all requisite power and authority, and all necessary authorizations, approvals, orders, licenses, certificates and permits of and from regulatory or governmental officials, bodies and tribunals, to own or lease their respective properties and to conduct their respective businesses as now being conducted, and neither the Company nor any of the Subsidiaries has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such authorizations, approvals, orders, licenses, certificates or permits which, singly or in the aggregate, if the failure to be so licensed or approved or if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would have a Material Adverse Effect; and the Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders and consents, the violation of which would have a Material Adverse Effect.

(q) The audited consolidated financial statements (including the notes thereto) and schedules of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2005 (the “Financial Statements”) and the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 (the “Interim Financial Statements”) provided to you are the most recent available audited and unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, respectively, and fairly present in all material respects, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the financial position of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, and the results of operations and changes in financial condition as of the dates and for the periods therein specified, subject, in the case of Interim Financial Statements, to year-end adjustments. Such consolidated financial statements and schedules have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied throughout the periods involved (except as otherwise noted therein).

(t) Neither the Company nor any of the Subsidiaries is in violation of its respective charter or by-laws or similar organizational documents or in default in the performance or observance of any obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any contract, indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of the Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of them may be bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries is subject, the effect of which violation or default in performance or observance would have a Material Adverse Effect.

5

(w) Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is party to or otherwise the subject of any consent decree, memorandum of understanding, written commitment or other written supervisory agreement or enforcement action with the FDIC or any other Federal or state authority or agency charged with the supervision or insurance of the Company and its subsidiaries.

(e) [Reserved].

(a) The Company shall have furnished to you the opinion of Troy & Gould Professional Corporation, special counsel for the Company, dated the Closing Date, addressed to you, in substantially the form set out in Annex A hereto.

(b) The Company shall have furnished to you the opinion of Troy & Gould Professional Corporation, special tax counsel for the Company, dated the Closing Date, containing such assumptions, qualifications and limitations as shall be reasonably acceptable to you and your counsel to the effect that for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Subordinated Debt Securities will constitute indebtedness of the Company, in substantially the form set out in Annex B hereto.

(c) You shall have received the opinion of Morris James LLP, special Delaware counsel for the Company and the Trust, dated the Closing Date, addressed to you, in substantially the form set out in Annex C hereto.

(d) You shall have received the opinion of Morris James LLP, counsel for the Guarantee Trustee, the Institutional Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, dated the Closing Date addressed to you, in substantially the form set out in Annex D hereto.

(e) The Company shall have furnished to you a certificate of the Company, signed by the President, a Vice President and by a Treasurer or Chief Financial Officer of the Company, dated the Closing Date, to the effect that:

(i) the representations and warranties of the Company and the Trust in this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as if made on the Closing Date, and the Company and the Trust have

9

complied with all the agreements and satisfied all the conditions on either of their part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Closing Date; and

(ii) since the date of the most recent financial statements provided to the Purchaser, there has been no material adverse change in the condition (financial or other), earnings, business or properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business.

(f) Subsequent to the Execution Time there shall not have been any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in or affecting the business or properties of the Company and its subsidiaries the effect of which, is, in your judgment, so material and adverse as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Debt Securities.

(g) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company and the Trust shall have furnished to you such further information, certificates and documents as you may reasonably request.

(h) At the Closing Date, each of the Operative Documents shall have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each party thereto, and copies thereof shall have been delivered to you.

If any of the conditions specified in this Section 6 shall not have been fulfilled in all material respects when and as provided in this Agreement, or if any of the opinions, certificates and documents mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not be in all material respects reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to you, this Agreement and all the Purchaser’s obligations hereunder may be canceled at, or at any time prior to, the Closing Date by you. Notice of such cancellation shall be given to the Company and the Trust in writing or by telephone or telegraph confirmed in writing.

7. Reimbursement of Expenses of the Purchaser. If the sale of the Debt Securities provided for herein is not consummated because any condition set forth in Section 6 hereof is not satisfied, because of any termination pursuant to Section 9 hereof or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company or the Trust to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof, the Company will reimburse the Purchaser upon demand for all documented out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been incurred by the Purchaser in connection with the proposed offering and sale of the Debt Securities.

8. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company and the Trust agree jointly and severally to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and its directors, officers, employees and agents and each person who controls the Purchaser within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any information (whether oral or written) or documents furnished or made available to the

10

Purchaser by the Company or the Trust, or its representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated herein, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company or the Trust may otherwise have.

(b) The Company agrees to indemnify the Trust against all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as due from the Trust under Section 8(a) hereunder.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve the indemnifying party from liability under paragraph (a) above, unless and to the extent that the indemnifying party did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding. An indemnified party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnifying parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or

11

proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action).

(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 8 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, the Company, the Trust and you agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same) (collectively “Losses”) to which the Company, the Trust and you may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Trust on the one hand and by you on the other from the offering of the Securities; provided, however, that in no case shall you be responsible for any amount in excess of the purchase discount or commission applicable to the Securities purchased hereunder. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Company, the Trust and you shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company and the Trust on the one hand and of you on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company and the Trust shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by it, and benefits received by you shall be deemed to be equal to the total purchase discounts or commissions applicable to the Securities purchased hereunder. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Company and the Trust on the one hand or you on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company, the Trust and you agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

EXHIBIT I

DISCLOSURE SCHEDULES

These Disclosure Schedules (these “Schedules”) are furnished pursuant to the Purchase Agreement dated as of December 28, 2006 (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among Beverly Hills Bancorp Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Beverly Hills Statutory Trust II, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trust”), on the one hand, and Zions First National Bank (the “Purchaser”), on the other hand. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

These Schedules are part of the Purchase Agreement, and are subject to the terms and provisions thereof. These Schedules are for the information of the Purchaser, only, for purposes relating to the Purchase Agreement. Nothing in the Schedules shall be construed as an admission of any liability or obligation of the Company to any third party, or an admission to any third party against the Company’s interests. Unless otherwise stated below, all statements made herein are made as of the date of execution of the Purchase Agreement.

The representations and warranties made by the Offerors in the Purchase Agreement are qualified by, and subject to the exceptions noted in, the information set forth in these Schedules. The inclusion or disclosure of any item or information in the Schedules shall not be construed as an admission, or to imply, that such item or information is material to the Offerors or the Purchaser, or to create measures of materiality for the purposes of the Purchase Agreement.

The section headings in the following Schedules are for convenience of reference only.

Schedule 1(s) - No Material Adverse Change.

On November 3, 2006, the Company sold the Beverly Hills branch of its subsidiary bank, First Bank of Beverly Hills (“FBBH”), to First Bank, a subsidiary of First Banks, Inc., headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri. In the sale, First Bank assumed all of the deposits at the branch and certain liabilities associated with the branch, including the branch lease, and acquired certain branch assets at their book values. First Bank paid a deposit premium of 5.5% of the deposits. The Company will realize a net gain on the sale of approximately $8.5 million, after related selling expenses. Subsequent to the sale, the Company will continue to operate its Calabasas branch and will continue its deposit gathering strategies.

As reported by the Company in its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 5, 2006, Wilshire Acquisitions Corporation (“WAC”), a subsidiary of the Company, entered into a loan agreement with First Tennessee Bank National Association (“First Tennessee Bank”). Pursuant this agreement, WAC may from time to time borrow from First Tennessee Bank up to $20 million outstanding under a revolving line of credit. The Company intends to use the proceeds of the line of credit for operating and working capital purposes. The loan is collateralized by 50% of the outstanding shares of common stock of FBBH, and the Company has unconditionally guaranteed to First Tennessee Bank the timely performance and payment by WAC of all amounts due under the loan agreement

16

Schedule 1(v) Litigation.

Beginning in June 2005, Wilshire Credit Corporation (“WCC”), a former wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, made demands on the Company for reimbursement of certain costs purportedly incurred by WCC in connection with WCC’s performance under one of its loan servicing contracts. WCC further asserted that the Company is obligated to reimburse WCC for similar recurring costs it may incur through April 2008. (Through September 2006, WCC had claimed a total of $890,000 of such costs.) The Company disagrees with this assertion. Accordingly, in July 2005 the Company filed a complaint for declaratory relief (the “Complaint”) against WCC and its current parent, Merrill Lynch Mortgage Capital Inc. (“Merrill Lynch”), with the Superior Court of the State of California. The Complaint seeks, among other things, a declaration that the Company has no obligation to reimburse WCC for those costs, or, alternatively, that, if such an obligation is found to exist, it is for a substantially lesser amount than that claimed by WCC. In September 2005, Merrill Lynch filed a cross-complaint against the Company alleging breach of contract.

The Company cannot predict the outcome of this matter.

We have acted as special tax counsel to Beverly Hills Bancorp Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the offering by Beverly Hills Statutory Trust II (the “Trust”) of 5,000 Floating Rate Capital Securities (liquidation amount $1,000 per capital security) (the “Debt Securities”). The Debt Securities represent undivided beneficial ownership interests in $5,155,000 in aggregate principal amount of Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Debt Securities due 2037 of the Company (the “Subordinated Debt Securities”). This opinion letter is furnished pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Purchase Agreement dated December 28, 2006, between the Company, the Trust and you.

It is our opinion that, under current law and assuming the performance of the Operative Documents in accordance with the terms described therein, the Subordinated Debt Securities will be treated for United States federal income tax purposes as indebtedness of the Company.

Our opinion is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, all as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis. In rendering this opinion, we are expressing our views only as to the federal income tax laws of the United States of America.
