WHEREAS, as a material inducement and as additional consideration to Buyer to enter into this Agreement, each of the directors and executive officers of the Company who hold shares of Company Common Stock have entered into an agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit A (each a “Company Shareholder Support Agreement” and collectively, the “Company Shareholder Support Agreements”), pursuant to which each such Person has agreed, among other things, to vote all shares of Company Common Stock owned by such Person in favor of the approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and to waive appraisal rights in connection with the Merger;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1.

THE MERGER

Section 1.01. The Merger. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, Company shall merge with and into Buyer in accordance with the DGCL. Upon consummation of the Merger, at the Effective Time the separate corporate existence of Company shall cease and Buyer shall survive and continue to exist as a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware (Buyer, as the surviving entity in the Merger, sometimes being referred to herein as the “Surviving Entity”).

Section 1.02. Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. The Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Entity upon consummation of the Merger at the Effective Time shall be the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of Buyer as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time.

Section 1.03. Directors and Officers of Surviving Entity.

(a) The directors of Buyer immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the directors of the Surviving Entity as of the Effective Time plus the individual identified on Exhibit B. The officers of Buyer immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the officers of the Surviving Entity as of the Effective Time plus the individual identified on Exhibit B, until the earlier of their resignation or removal or otherwise ceasing to be an officer or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, as the case may be.

(b) Concurrently herewith, the individual identified on Exhibit B is entering into a change in control agreement and restrictive covenant agreement with Buyer, to be effective upon the Effective Time (the “Officer Agreements”).

Section 1.04. Bank Merger. Immediately following the Effective Time or as promptly as practicable thereafter (unless otherwise determined by Buyer in its sole discretion), Company Bank will be merged with and into Buyer Bank upon the terms and with the effect set forth in the Plan of Merger and Merger Agreement, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Plan of Bank Merger”).

Section 1.05. Effective Time; Closing.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Buyer, Buyer Bank, Company and Company Bank will make all such filings as may be required to consummate the Merger and the Bank Merger by applicable Laws. The Merger shall become effective as set forth in the appropriate documents (the “Certificates of Merger”) related to the Merger that shall be filed with the Secretaries of State of the States of Delaware and Montana on the Closing Date. The “Effective Time” of the Merger shall be the later of (i) the date and time of filing of the Certificates of Merger, or (ii) the date and time when the Merger becomes effective as set forth in the Certificates of Merger.

- 2 -

(b) The Bank Merger shall become effective as set forth in the Plan of Bank Merger providing for the Bank Merger, at the later of immediately following the Effective Time or as promptly as practicable thereafter (unless otherwise determined by Buyer in its sole discretion). Prior to the Effective Time (unless otherwise determined by Buyer in its sole discretion), Buyer shall cause Buyer Bank, and Company shall cause Company Bank, to execute such certificates or articles of combination and such other documents and certificates as are necessary to make the Bank Merger effective (“Bank Merger Certificates”) immediately following the Effective Time.

(c) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at 10:00 a.m., Mountain time, on a date which shall be no later than five (5) Business Days after all of the conditions to the Closing set forth in Article 6 (other than conditions to be satisfied at the Closing, which shall be satisfied or waived at the Closing) have been satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof (such date, the “Closing Date”) at the offices of Nixon Peabody LLP, or such other place, date or time as the parties may mutually agree. At the Closing, there shall be delivered to Buyer and Company the Certificates of Merger, the Plan of Bank Merger and such other certificates and other documents required to be delivered under Section 1.05(b) and Article 6 hereof.

Section 1.06. Additional Actions. If, at any time after the Effective Time, Buyer shall consider or be advised that any further deeds, documents, assignments or assurances in Law or any other acts are necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, Company, Company Bank and their respective Subsidiaries shall be deemed to have granted to Buyer and Buyer Bank, and each or any of them, an irrevocable power of attorney to execute and deliver, in such official corporate capacities, all such deeds, assignments or assurances in Law or any other acts as are necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, and the officers and directors of Buyer and Buyer Bank, as applicable, are authorized in the name of Company, Company Bank and their respective Subsidiaries to take any and all such action.

Section 1.07. Structure Change. Buyer may at any time change the method of effecting the Merger and the Bank Merger (including by providing for the merger of Company with a wholly-owned Subsidiary of Buyer) if and to the extent requested by Buyer, and Company agrees to enter into such amendments to this Agreement as Buyer may reasonably request in order to give effect to such restructuring; provided, however, that no such change or amendment shall (a) alter or change the amount, kind, or value of the Merger Consideration provided for in this Agreement, (b) adversely affect the Tax treatment of the Merger with respect to Company’s shareholders or (c) be reasonably likely to cause the Closing to be prevented or materially delayed or the receipt of the Regulatory Approvals to be prevented or materially delayed.

ARTICLE 2.

MERGER CONSIDERATION; EXCHANGE PROCEDURES

Section 2.01. Merger Consideration. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, automatically by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Buyer, Buyer Bank, Company Bank, Company or any shareholder of Company, subject to Section 2.10 and any applicable withholding Tax:

(a) Each share of Buyer Common Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain outstanding following the Effective Time and shall be unchanged by the Merger.

(b) Each share of Company Common Stock owned directly by Buyer, Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries (other than shares in trust accounts, managed accounts and the like for the benefit of customers, or as a result of debts previously contracted) immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and retired at the Effective Time without any conversion thereof, and no payment shall be made with respect thereto.

(c) Each share of Company Common Stock (other than Dissenting Shares) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than treasury stock and shares described in Section 2.01(b) above) shall be automatically converted into the right to receive, at the election of the holder thereof in accordance with, and subject to, the terms, conditions and procedures set forth in this Article 2 (including the proration procedures in Section 2.02(c)), the following consideration, (collectively the “Merger Consideration”), in each case without interest: (i) the combination (such election a “Mixed Election”) of (A) $247.16 in cash (the “Mixed Cash Consideration”) and (B) 11.1540 validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Buyer Common Stock (the “Mixed Stock Consideration”), or (ii) (such election, a “Cash Election”) $449.38 in cash (the “Cash Election Consideration”), or (iii) (such election, a “Stock Election”) 24.7866 validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Buyer Common Stock (such number of shares of Buyer Common Stock, the “Stock Election Consideration”).

(d) If the Adjusted Tangible Stockholders Equity of Company as of the last day of the month prior to the month in which the Effective Time is expected to occur (the “Measurement Date”) is less than $13,400,000, the Mixed Cash Consideration, Mixed Stock Consideration, Cash Election Consideration and Stock Election Consideration shall each be decreased by an amount equal to (i)(x) the difference between $13,400,000 and the Adjusted Tangible Stockholders' Equity as of the Measurement Date divided by (y) the number of outstanding shares of Company Common Stock as of the Effective Time, divided by (ii) the Cash Election Consideration (rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth). If the Adjusted Tangible Stockholders Equity of Company as of the Measurement Date is greater than $13,400,000, the Company may, in its discretion, elect to declare and pay a special dividend to its shareholders in such excess amount provided, however, the Company provides written notice to the Buyer not less than five (5) Business Days prior to Closing and the dividend is made effective immediately prior to the Effective Time; and provided further, the amount of such dividend may be limited to the extent necessary to cause the Merger to effect a transfer of “substantially all of the properties” of the Company and the Company Bank within the meaning of Section 368(a)(2)(D) of the Code occurs in connection with the Merger and that the sum of the special dividend, the Mixed Cash Consideration and the Cash Election Consideration will be less than or equal to 60% of the aggregate value of the total Merger Consideration, in each case as determined in the sole discretion of Buyer in consultation with its tax counsel. “Adjusted Tangible Stockholders’ Equity” shall mean the consolidated stockholders’ equity of Company as set forth on its balance sheet on the Measurement Date calculated in accordance with GAAP, less intangible assets, plus Permitted Expenses aggregating up to $1,000,000 to the extent they either have been paid or accrued by the Measurement Date and are reflected in GAAP consolidated stockholders’ equity at the Measurement Date, less the amount by which aggregate Permitted Expenses equal or exceed $1,000,000 to the extent they are neither paid nor accrued at the Measurement Date and are not reflected in GAAP consolidated stockholders’ equity at the Measurement Date. The calculation of the Adjusted Tangible Stockholders’ Equity shall be delivered by Company to Buyer, accompanied by appropriate supporting detail, no later than the close of business on the fourth (4^th) Business Day preceding the Closing Date, and such calculation shall be subject to verification and approval by Buyer, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

- 4 -

Section 2.02. Election and Proration Procedures.

(a) An election form in such form as Buyer shall reasonably specify (the “Election Form”) shall be mailed on a date to be mutually agreed by the Buyer and the Company that is not more than forty-five (45) days nor less than thirty (30) days prior to the anticipated Closing Date or on such other date as the Buyer and the Company shall mutually agree (the “Mailing Date”) to each holder of record of Company Common Stock as of the close of business on the fifth (5^th) Business Day prior to the Mailing Date (the “Election Form Record Date”).

(b) Buyer shall make available one or more Election Forms as may reasonably be requested from time to time by all Persons who become holders (or beneficial owners) of Company Common Stock between the Election Form Record Date and the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Election Deadline, and Company shall provide to the Exchange Agent all information reasonably necessary for it to perform as specified herein.

(c) Each Election Form shall permit the holder (or the beneficial owner through appropriate and customary documentation and instructions) to specify (x) the number of shares of such holder’s Company Common Stock with respect to which such holder makes a Mixed Election (each such share, a “Mixed Election Share”), (y) the number of shares of such holder’s Company Common Stock with respect to which such holder makes a Cash Election (each such share, a “Cash Election Share”), and (z) the number of shares of such holder’s Company Common Stock with respect to which such holder makes a Stock Election (each such share, a “Stock Election Share”). Any shares of Company Common Stock with respect to which the Exchange Agent has not received an effective, properly completed Election Form (including duly executed transmittal materials included with the Election Form), accompanied by any Certificates to which such Election Form relates, or by an appropriate customary guaranty of delivery of the related Certificates from a member of any registered national securities exchange or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States, on or before 3:00 p.m., Mountain Time, on the twenty-fifth (25^th) day following the Mailing Date (or such other time and date as the Buyer and the Company shall agree) (the “Election Deadline”) (other than shares of Company Common Stock to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.01(b) and other than Dissenting Shares) shall be deemed to be “No Election Shares,” and the holders of such No Election Shares shall be deemed to have made a Mixed Election with respect to such No Election Shares. Not later than ten (10) Business Days after the Election Deadline, unless the Effective Time has not yet occurred, in which case as soon after the Effective Time as is reasonably practicable, Buyer shall cause the Exchange Agent to effect the following prorations to the Merger Consideration:

- 5 -

(i) If the Cash Election Amount is greater than the Available Cash Election Amount, then each Cash Election Share shall, instead of being converted into the Cash Election Consideration, be converted into the right to receive (A) an amount of cash (without interest) equal to the product of the Cash Election Consideration, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Available Cash Election Amount and the denominator of which shall be the Cash Election Amount (such fraction, the “Cash Fraction”), and (B) a number of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Buyer Common Stock equal to the product of the Stock Election Consideration multiplied by a fraction equal to one (1) minus the Cash Fraction.

(ii) If the Available Cash Election Amount is greater than the Cash Election Amount, then each Stock Election Share shall, instead of being converted into the right to receive the Stock Election Consideration, be converted into the right to receive (A) an amount of cash (without interest) equal to the amount of such excess divided by the number of Stock Election Shares, and (B) a number of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Buyer Common Stock equal to the product of the Stock Election Consideration multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the difference between (I) the Cash Election Consideration minus (II) the amount calculated in clause (A) of this paragraph, and the denominator of which shall be the Cash Election Consideration.

(d) Any election shall have been properly made only if the Exchange Agent shall have actually received a properly completed Election Form (including duly executed transmittal materials included with the Election Form), accompanied by any Certificates to which such Election Form relates, or by an appropriate customary guaranty of delivery of the related Certificates from a member of any registered national securities exchange or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States, by the Election Deadline. Any Election Form may be revoked or changed by the authorized Person properly submitting such Election Form, by written notice received by the Exchange Agent prior to the Election Deadline. In the event an Election Form is revoked prior to the Election Deadline, the shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Election Form shall become No Election Shares, except to the extent a subsequent election is properly made with respect to any or all of such shares of Company Common Stock prior to the Election Deadline. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and of the Election Form, the Exchange Agent shall have reasonable discretion to determine whether any election, revocation or change has been properly or timely made and to disregard immaterial defects in the Election Forms, and any good faith decisions of the Exchange Agent regarding such matters shall be binding and conclusive. None of Buyer, Buyer Bank, Company, Company Bank or the Exchange Agent shall be under any obligation to notify any Person of any defect in an Election Form.

Section 2.03. Rights as Shareholders; Stock Transfers. At the Effective Time, all shares of Company Common Stock, when converted in accordance with Section 2.01(c) above, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each Certificate previously evidencing such shares shall thereafter represent only the right to receive for each such share of Company Common Stock, the Merger Consideration (and any cash in lieu of shares of Buyer Common Stock as set forth in Section 2.04) in accordance with this Article 2 (subject to the provisions of Section 2.07). At the Effective Time, the non-dissenting holders of Company Common Stock shall cease to be, and shall have no rights as, shareholders of Company, other than the right to receive the Merger Consideration (and any cash in lieu of shares of Buyer Common Stock as set forth in Section 2.04) in accordance with this Article 2. After the Effective Time, there shall be no registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of Company of shares of Company Common Stock.

Section 2.04. Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, no fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock and no certificates or scrip therefor, or other evidence of ownership thereof, will be issued in the Merger and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a shareholder of Buyer. In lieu thereof, Buyer shall pay or cause to be paid to each non-dissenting holder of a fractional share of Buyer Common Stock, rounded to the nearest one hundredth (1/100^th) of a share, an amount of cash (without interest and rounded to the nearest whole cent) determined by multiplying the fractional share interest in Buyer Common Stock to which such holder would otherwise be entitled by the VWAP for the twenty (20) Trading Days preceding the Closing Date.

Section 2.05. Plan of Reorganization. It is intended that the Merger shall constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and that this Agreement shall constitute a “plan of reorganization” as that term is used in Sections 354 and 361 of the Code. From and after the date of this Agreement and until the Closing, each party hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Merger to qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code.

Section 2.06. Exchange Procedures. As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date, and provided that Company has delivered, or caused to be delivered, to the Exchange Agent all information that is reasonably required by the Exchange Agent, the Exchange Agent shall mail or otherwise cause to be delivered to each holder of record of shares of Company Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time and whose shares of Company Common Stock were converted pursuant to Section 2.01 into the right to receive the Merger Consideration (each, a “Holder”) and who has not theretofore submitted its Certificates with an Election Form, a letter of transmittal, which shall (i) specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss and/or bonds in such amounts as may be required in each case by Buyer or the Exchange Agent in lieu of such Certificate(s)) to the Exchange Agent and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Buyer may reasonably specify, and (ii) specify instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) in exchange for payment of the Merger Consideration (and any cash in lieu of shares of Buyer Common Stock as set forth in Section 2.04) in accordance with this Article 2 as provided for in this Agreement (the “Letter of Transmittal”). Buyer and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the stock transfer books of Company to establish the identity of the Holders, which books shall be conclusive with respect thereto.

- 7 -

Section 2.07. Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a shareholder who has not voted in favor of the Merger or consented thereto in writing and who has complied with applicable provisions of the MBCA (“Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into a right to receive the Merger Consideration, unless such shareholder fails to perfect or withdraws or otherwise loses his, her or its right to appraisal. From and after the Effective Time, a shareholder who has properly exercised such appraisal rights shall not have any rights of a shareholder of Company or the Surviving Entity with respect to shares of Company Common Stock, except those provided under applicable provisions of the MBCA (any shareholder duly making such demand being hereinafter called a “Dissenting Shareholder”). A Dissenting Shareholder shall be entitled to receive payment of the appraised value of each share of Company Common Stock held by him in accordance with the applicable provisions of the MBCA, unless, after the Effective Time, such shareholder fails to perfect or withdraws or loses his, her or its right to appraisal, in which case such shares of Company Common Stock shall be converted into and represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without interest thereon, upon surrender of his, her or its Certificates pursuant to Section 2.06. Company shall give Buyer prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal, attempted withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to applicable Law received by Company relating to shareholders’ rights of appraisal. Buyer shall have the right to direct all discussions, negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demands for appraisal. Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Buyer, voluntarily make, or offer to make, any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demand for appraisal. Company shall not waive any failure to timely deliver a written demand for appraisal or the taking of any other action by such Dissenting Shareholder as may be necessary to perfect appraisal rights under the MBCA. Any payments made in respect of Dissenting Shares shall be made by Buyer as the Surviving Entity.

Section 2.08. Deposit of Merger Consideration.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, as soon as practicable and in no event later than sixty (60) days after the date of this Agreement, Buyer and Company shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, each prepare and file any applications, notices and filings required in order to obtain the Regulatory Approvals and other Governmental Authority consents and approvals required to consummate the Merger.

Each party will, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, notify the other party promptly and shall promptly furnish the other party with copies of notices or other communications received by such party or any of its Subsidiaries of any communication from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person (or another Person) is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (and the response thereto from such party, its Subsidiaries or its representatives). Company will reasonably consult with Buyer and its representatives so as to permit Company and Buyer and their respective representatives to cooperate to take appropriate measures to obtain such consents and avoid or mitigate any adverse consequences that may result from the foregoing.

Section 5.07. Publicity. Buyer and Company shall consult with each other before issuing any press release with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the prior consent of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld; provided, however, that Buyer may, without the prior consent of Company (but after such consultation, to the extent practicable in the circumstances), issue such press release or make such public statements as may be required by Law or the rules and regulations of Nasdaq. It is understood that Buyer shall assume primary responsibility for the preparation of joint press releases relating to this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 5.08. Access; Current Information.

(a) For the purposes of verifying the representations and warranties of Company and preparing for the Merger and the other matters contemplated by this Agreement, upon reasonable notice and subject to applicable Laws, Company agrees to afford Buyer and its officers, employees, counsel, accountants and other authorized representatives such access during normal business hours at any time and from time to time throughout the period prior to the Effective Time to its and its Subsidiaries’ books, records (including, without limitation, Tax Returns and, subject to the consent of the independent auditors, work papers of independent auditors), information technology systems, properties and personnel and to such other information relating to them as Buyer may reasonably request and Company shall use reasonable best efforts to provide any appropriate notices to employees and/or customers in accordance with applicable Law and its privacy policy and, during such period, Company shall furnish to Buyer, upon reasonable request, all such other information concerning its business, properties and personnel and its Subsidiaries that is substantially similar in scope to the information provided to Buyer in connection with its diligence review prior to the date of this Agreement.

- 57 -

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable after they become available, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, Company will furnish to Buyer copies of the board packages distributed to Company’s Board or the board of directors of its subsidiary bank, or any of their respective Subsidiaries, and minutes from the meetings thereof, copies of any internal management financial control reports showing actual financial performance against plan and previous period, and copies of any reports provided to its Board or any committee thereof relating to its financial performance and risk management.

(c) During the period from the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time, Company will cause one or more of its designated representatives to confer on a regular basis with representatives of Buyer and to report the general status of the ongoing operations of Company and its Subsidiaries. Without limiting the foregoing, Company agrees to provide to Buyer, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, a copy of each report filed by it or any of its Subsidiaries with a Governmental Authority reasonably promptly following the filing thereof. During the period from the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time, each party will promptly supplement or amend its Disclosure Schedule delivered in connection herewith with respect to any matter hereafter arising which, if existing, occurring or known at the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in its Disclosure Schedule or which is necessary to correct any information in its Disclosure Schedule which has been rendered materially inaccurate thereby.

(d) No investigation by a party or its representatives, or updating of any Disclosure Schedule, shall be deemed to modify or waive any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of any party or its subsidiary bank set forth in this Agreement, or the conditions to the respective obligations of Buyer and Company to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. Any investigation pursuant to this Section 5.08 and Section 5.16 shall be conducted in such manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of business of the other party or any of its Subsidiaries.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.08 to the contrary, no party shall be required to provide the other with any documents that disclose confidential discussions or information relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or any other matter that a party or its subsidiary bank’s board of directors has been advised by counsel that such distribution of which to the other party may violate a confidentiality obligation or fiduciary duty or any Law or regulation, or may result in its waiver of attorney-client privilege. In the event any of the restrictions in this Section 5.08(e) shall apply, each party shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain such consents, waivers, decrees and approvals necessary to satisfy any confidentiality issues relating to documents prepared or held by third parties (including work papers), and the parties will use reasonable best efforts to make appropriate alternate disclosure arrangements, including adopting additional specific procedures to protect the confidentiality of sensitive material and to ensure compliance with applicable Laws.

Any violation of the foregoing restrictions by any of the Company Representatives, whether or not such Company Representative is so authorized and whether or not such Company Representative is purporting to act on behalf of Company or otherwise, shall be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement by Company. Company and its Subsidiaries shall, and shall cause each of the Company Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any and all existing discussions, negotiations, and communications with any Persons with respect to any existing or potential Acquisition Proposal. Company shall use its reasonable best efforts, subject to applicable Law, to, within ten (10) Business Days after the date hereof, request and confirm the return or destruction of any confidential information provided to any Person (other than Buyer and its Affiliates and its and their representatives) pursuant to any existing confidentiality, standstill or similar agreements to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is a party relating to an Acquisition Proposal.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Acquisition Proposal” shall mean any inquiry, offer or proposal (other than an inquiry, offer or proposal from Buyer), whether or not in writing, contemplating, relating to, or that could reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Transaction.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Acquisition Transaction” shall mean: (A) any transaction or series of transactions involving any merger, consolidation, recapitalization, share exchange, liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction involving Company or Company Bank that, in any such case, results in any Person (or, in the case of a direct merger between such third party and Company, Company Bank or any other Subsidiary of Company, the shareholders of such third party) acquiring 15% or more of any class of equity of Company or Company Bank; (B) any transaction pursuant to which any third party or group acquires or would acquire (whether through sale, lease or other disposition), directly or indirectly, 15% or more of the consolidated assets of Company or Company Bank; (C) any issuance, sale or other disposition of (including by way of merger, consolidation, share exchange or any similar transaction) securities (or options, rights or warrants to purchase or securities convertible into, such securities) representing 15% or more of the votes attached to the outstanding securities of Company or Company Bank; (D) any tender offer or exchange offer that, if consummated, would result in any third party or group beneficially owning 15% or more of any class of equity securities of Company or Company Bank; or (E) any transaction which is similar in form, substance or purpose to any of the foregoing transactions, or any combination of the foregoing.

- 59 -

For purposes of this Agreement, “Superior Proposal” means a bona fide, unsolicited written Acquisition Proposal (i) that if consummated would result in a third party (or, in the case of a direct merger between such third party and Company, Company Bank or any other Subsidiary of Company, the shareholders of such third party) acquiring, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the outstanding Company Common Stock or more than 50% of the assets of Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, for consideration consisting of cash and/or securities and (ii) that Company Board reasonably determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside financial advisor and outside legal counsel, (A) is reasonably capable of being completed, taking into account all financial, legal, regulatory and other aspects of such proposal, including all conditions contained therein and the Person making such Acquisition Proposal, and (B) taking into account any changes to this Agreement proposed by Buyer in response to such Acquisition Proposal, as contemplated by paragraph (c) of this Section 5.09, and all financial, legal, regulatory and other aspects of such Acquisition Proposal, including all conditions contained therein and the Person making such proposal, is more favorable to the shareholders of Company from a financial point of view than the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 5.09(a) or any other provision of this Agreement, prior to the date of the Company Meeting, if, but only if, (A) Company has after the date of this Agreement received a bona fide unsolicited written Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach of this Section 5.09, (B) the Company Board reasonably determines in good faith, after consultation with and having considered the advice of its outside financial advisor and outside legal counsel, that (1) such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal and (2) the failure to take such actions would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, and (C) prior to furnishing or affording access to any information or data with respect to Company or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise relating to an Acquisition Proposal, Company receives from the Person making such Acquisition Proposal an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement (it being understood that nothing therein shall have the effect of a standstill provision), Company may take the actions described in clause (ii) of Section 5.09(a) solely with respect to such Acquisition Proposal. Company shall promptly provide to Buyer any non-public information regarding Company or its Subsidiaries provided to any other Person which was not previously provided to Buyer, such additional information to be provided no later than the date of provision of such information to such other party.

(c) Company shall promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) notify Buyer in writing if any proposals or offers are received by, any information is requested from, or any negotiations or discussions are sought to be initiated or continued with, Company or the Company Representatives, in each case in connection with any Acquisition Proposal, and such notice shall indicate the name of the Person initiating such discussions or negotiations or making such proposal, offer or information request and the material terms and conditions of any proposals or offers and, in the case of written materials relating to such proposal, offer, information request, negotiations or discussion, providing copies of such materials including e-mails or other electronic communications. Company agrees that it shall keep Buyer informed, on a reasonably current basis, of the status and terms of any such proposal, offer, information request, negotiations or discussions (including any amendments or modifications to such proposal, offer or request).

(d) Subject to Section 5.09(e), neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall (i) withhold, withdraw, change, qualify, amend or modify, or publicly propose to withdraw, change, qualify, amend or modify, in a manner adverse in any respect to the interest of Buyer, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Merger), or take any other action or make any other public statement inconsistent with, the Company Recommendation, fail to reaffirm the Company Recommendation within five (5) Business Days following a request by Buyer, or make any public statement, filing or release inconsistent with the Company Recommendation (it being understood that taking a neutral position or no position with respect to an Acquisition Proposal shall be considered an adverse modification of the Company Recommendation); (ii) approve, recommend or endorse, or publicly propose to approve, recommend or endorse, any Acquisition Proposal; (iii) submit this Agreement to Company’s shareholders for approval without recommendation; (iv) resolve to take, or publicly announce an intention to take, any of the foregoing actions (each of (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) a “Company Subsequent Determination”); or (v) enter into (or cause Company or any of its Subsidiaries to enter into) any letter of intent, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement or other agreement (A) related to any Acquisition Transaction (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement entered into in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.09(b)) or (B) requiring Company to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding Section 5.09(d), prior to the date of the Company Meeting, the Company Board may make a Company Subsequent Determination (although the Company Subsequent Determination will have no effect on any previously adopted resolutions of the Company Board except as expressly permitted by this paragraph) after the fifth (5^th) Business Day following Buyer’s receipt of a notice (the “Notice of Superior Proposal”) from Company advising Buyer that the Company Board has determined reasonably and in good faith, after consultation with and considering the advice of its outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, that a bona fide unsolicited written Acquisition Proposal that it received after the date of this Agreement (that did not result from a breach of this Section 5.09) constitutes a Superior Proposal if, but only if, (i) the Company Board has determined reasonably and in good faith, after consultation with and having considered the advice of outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, that because of the existence of such Superior Proposal the failure to take such actions would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law (it being understood that the initial determination under this clause (i) will not be considered a Company Subsequent Determination), (ii) during the five (5) Business Day period after receipt of the Notice of Superior Proposal by Buyer (the “Notice Period”), Company and the Company Board shall have cooperated and negotiated in good faith with Buyer to make such adjustments, modifications or amendments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement as would enable Company to proceed with the Company Recommendation without a Company Subsequent Determination; provided, however, that Buyer shall not have any obligation to propose any adjustments, modifications or amendments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and (iii) at the end of the Notice Period, after taking into account any such adjusted, modified or amended terms, if any, as may have been proposed by Buyer since its receipt of such Notice of Superior Proposal, the Company Board has again reasonably and in good faith, after consultation with and considering the advice of its outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, made the determination (A) in clause (i) of this Section 5.09(e) and (B) that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal. In the event of any material revisions to the Superior Proposal, Company shall be required to deliver a new Notice of Superior Proposal to Buyer and again comply with the requirements of this Section 5.09(e), except that the Notice Period shall be reduced to three (3) Business Days. Any Notice of Superior Proposal shall include a reasonably detailed description of the Acquisition Proposal subject thereto, including the latest material terms and conditions and the identity of the third party in such Acquisition Proposal (including an unredacted copy of all proposed agreements and other documents with respect to such Acquisition Proposal) or any amendment or supplement thereto.

- 61 -

(f) Nothing contained in this Section 5.09 shall prohibit Company or the Company Board from complying with Company’s obligations required under Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act; provided, however, that any such disclosure relating to an Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed a Company Subsequent Determination unless the Company Board reaffirms the Company Recommendation in such disclosure, in which case, for the avoidance of doubt, such disclosure will not be considered a Company Subsequent Determination.

Section 5.10. Indemnification.

(a) For a period of three (3) years from and after the Effective Time, and in any event subject to the provisions of Section 5.10(b), Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless the present and former directors and officers of Company and Company Bank (the “Indemnified Parties”), against all costs or expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, or liabilities incurred in connection with any actual or threatened claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative arising out of actions or omissions of such persons in the course of performing their duties for Company or Company Bank or any of their respective Subsidiaries occurring at or before the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (each a “Claim”), to the fullest extent as such persons have the right to be indemnified pursuant to the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of Company in effect on the date of this Agreement and applicable Law and in connection with any such Claim promptly advance expenses from time to time as incurred, to the same extent as such persons have the right to expense advancement pursuant to the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of Company in effect on the date of this Agreement, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, provided, the person to whom expenses are advanced provides a reasonable and customary undertaking to repay such advances, if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification.

- 62 -

(b) Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under this Section 5.10 shall promptly notify Buyer upon learning of any Claim, provided that, failure to so notify shall not affect the obligation of Buyer under this Section 5.10, unless, and only to the extent that, Buyer is materially prejudiced in the defense of such Claim as a consequence. In the event of any such Claim (whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time), (i) (A) Buyer shall have the right to assume the defense thereof and Buyer shall not be liable to such Indemnified Parties for any legal expenses or other counsel or any other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Parties in connection with the defense thereof, unless such Indemnified Party is advised in writing by counsel that the defense of such Indemnified Party by Buyer would create an actual or potential conflict of interest (in which case, Buyer shall not be obligated to reimburse or indemnify any Indemnified Party for the expenses of more than one such separate counsel for all Indemnified Parties, in addition to one local counsel in the jurisdiction where defense of any Claim has been or is to be asserted), and (B) the Indemnified Parties will cooperate in the defense of any such matter, (ii) (x) Buyer shall not be liable for any settlement effected without its prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and (y) Buyer shall not settle any Claim without such Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless in the case of this clause (y) such settlement does not provide for any additional monetary or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party and contains an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party for the matters to which such settlement relates and (iii) Buyer shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Party if such indemnification would be in violation of any applicable federal or state banking Laws or regulations, or in the event that a federal or state banking agency or a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that indemnification of an Indemnified Party in the manner contemplated hereby is prohibited by applicable Laws and regulations, whether or not related to banking Laws. All rights to indemnification in respect of any Claim asserted or made prior to the period ending six (6) years after the Effective Time shall continue until the final disposition of such Claim.

(c) For a period of three (3) years following the Effective Time, Buyer will purchase and provide director’s and officer’s liability insurance (herein, “D&O Insurance”) that serves to reimburse the present and former officers and directors of Company or its Subsidiaries (determined as of the Effective Time) with respect to claims against such directors and officers arising from acts and omissions occurring before the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated hereby), which insurance will contain at least the same coverage and amounts, and contain terms and conditions no less advantageous to the Indemnified Parties, as that coverage currently provided by Company, provided that, if Buyer is unable to maintain or obtain the insurance called for by this Section 5.10, Buyer will provide as much comparable insurance as is reasonably available (subject to the limitations described below in this Section 5.10(c); and provided, further, that officers and directors of Company or its Subsidiaries may be required to make application and provide customary representations and warranties to the carrier of the D&O Insurance for the purpose of obtaining such insurance. In no event shall Buyer be required to expend for such tail insurance a premium amount in excess of an amount equal to 150% of the annual premium paid by Company for D&O Insurance in effect as of the date of this Agreement (the “Maximum D&O Tail Premium”). If the aggregate cost of such tail insurance exceeds the Maximum D&O Tail Premium, Buyer shall obtain tail insurance coverage or a separate tail insurance policy with the greatest coverage available for an aggregate cost not exceeding the Maximum D&O Tail Premium or, in the case of a tail insurance policy, the aggregate Maximum D&O Tail Premium for the 3-year period).

After the Effective Time, the obligations of Buyer under this Section 5.10 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any Indemnified Party unless the affected Indemnified Party shall have consented in writing to such termination or modification.

(f) Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any of their respective directors, officers or other employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.10 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims under such policies.

Section 5.11. Employees; Benefit Plans.

(a) Company and Company Bank agree, upon Buyer’s reasonable request, to facilitate discussions between Buyer and Company Employees a reasonable time in advance of the Closing Date regarding employment, consulting or other arrangements to be effective prior to or following the Effective Time.

To the extent allowable under any Buyer Benefit Plans in which Company Employees participate, Company Employees shall be given credit for prior service or employment with Company or Company Bank (as well as service with any predecessor employer) for purposes of eligibility for and vesting of all benefits under such plans and for purposes of accruals or levels of severance, vacation pay, paid time off or similar benefits; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to the extent that it would result in any duplication of benefits. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer may amend or terminate any Buyer Benefit Plan at any time in its sole discretion.

(e) Each full-time employee of Company or Company Bank, other than an employee who is a party to an employment agreement, change in control agreement or other separation agreement that provides a benefit on a termination of employment, who is terminated by Buyer or its Subsidiaries (other than for cause) within six (6) months following the Effective Time shall receive a lump sum severance payment from Buyer or Buyer Bank in accordance with Company Disclosure Schedule 5.11(e) provided that such employee enters into a release of claims for the benefit of Company and Buyer and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates in a form satisfactory to Buyer.

Nothing in this Section 5.11, expressed or implied, is intended (i) to amend any Company Benefit Plan or any Buyer Benefit Plan, (ii) interfere with Buyer’s right from and after the Closing Date to amend or terminate any Company Benefit Plan that is not terminated prior to the Effective Time or Buyer Benefit Plan (iii) require Buyer to establish or maintain any employee benefit plan, (iv) interfere with Buyer’s right from and after the Effective Time to terminate the employment of or provision of services by any director, employee, independent contractor or consultant or (v) interfere with Buyer’s right from and after the Effective Time to changes terminate or add to the terms and conditions of employment or provisions of services by any director, employee, independent contractor or consultant.

Section 2. Releases. Upon the Closing, the undersigned hereby fully, finally and irrevocably releases and forever discharges the Company, Buyer, Buyer Bank, the Company Bank and all other Subsidiaries of the Company and Buyer, and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, representatives, Subsidiaries, partners, Affiliates, controlling persons and insurers in their capacities as such, and their respective successors and assigns, and each of them (hereinafter, individually and collectively, the “Releasees”) of and from any and all liabilities, losses, claims, demands, debts, accounts, covenants, agreements, obligations, costs, expenses, actions or causes of action of every nature, character or description, now accrued or which may hereafter accrue, without limitation and whether or not in law, equity or otherwise, based in whole or in part on any known or unknown facts, conduct, activities, transactions, events or occurrences, matured or unmatured, contingent or otherwise, which have or allegedly have existed, occurred, happened, arisen or transpired from the beginning of time to the date of the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, except for the Disclosed Claims (collectively, the “Claims”). The undersigned further irrevocably releases, discharges, and transfers to Buyer, as successor to the Company, respectively, all claims, actions and interests of the undersigned in any Intellectual Property of any nature whatsoever created, developed, registered, licensed or used by or for the undersigned or the Company, the Company Bank or any other Subsidiary of the Company (which shall also be considered to be Claims).

Section 3. Forbearance. The undersigned shall forever refrain and forebear from commencing, instituting, prosecuting or making any lawsuit, action, claim or proceeding before or in any court, Regulatory Authority, Governmental Authority, Taxing Authority or other authority to collect or enforce any Claims which are released and discharged hereby.

Section 4. Miscellaneous.

(b) This Claims Letter contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the Claims released hereby, and such Claims Letter supersedes all prior agreements, arrangements or understandings (written or otherwise) with respect to such Claims, and no representation or warranty, oral or written, express or implied, has been made by or relied upon by any party hereto, except as expressly contained herein, or in the Merger Agreement.

(c) This Claims Letter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the undersigned and the Releasees and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.

(d) In the event that a party seeks to obtain or enforce any right or benefit provided by this Claims Letter through Litigation, and in the event that such party prevails in any such Litigation pursuant to which an arbitral panel, court or other Governmental Authority issues a final order, judgment, decree or award granting substantially the relief sought, then the prevailing party shall be entitled upon demand to be paid by the other party, all reasonable costs incurred in connection with such Litigation, including the reasonable legal fees and charges of one counsel, provided no party shall be entitled to any punitive or exemplary damages, which are hereby waived.

(a) Nondisclosure of Confidential Information. From and after the Effective Time, Director shall not directly or indirectly transmit or disclose any Confidential Information to any Person, or use or permit others to use any such Confidential Information, directly or indirectly, for any purpose for so long as such information remains Confidential Information, without the prior express written consent of the Chief Executive Officer of Buyer, which consent may be withheld in the sole discretion of Buyer’s Chief Executive Officer. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Director shall not be restricted from disclosing information that is required to be disclosed by law, court order or other valid and appropriate legal process; provided, however, that in the event such disclosure is required by law, Director shall (i) if allowed by law or legal process, provide Buyer with prompt written notice of such requirement so that Buyer may seek an appropriate protective order prior to any such required disclosure by Director; and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain assurances that any Confidential Information disclosed will be accorded confidential treatment. If, in the absence of a required waiver or protective order, Director is nonetheless, in the opinion of his counsel, required to disclose Confidential Information, disclosure may be made only as to that portion of the Confidential Information that counsel advises Director is legally required to be disclosed.

E-2

(b) Nonrecruitment and Nonhire of Employees. Director hereby agrees that, for two (2) years following the Effective Time, Director shall not, without the prior written consent of Buyer’s Chief Executive Officer, which consent may be withheld at the sole discretion of Buyer’s Chief Executive Officer, directly or indirectly solicit or recruit or attempt to solicit or recruit for employment or encourage to leave employment with Buyer or any of its Affiliated Companies or hire, as employee, consultant or otherwise, on his or her own behalf or on behalf of any other Person, (i) any then-current employee of Buyer or any of its Affiliated Companies or (ii) any employee of TwinCo who both (A) worked at TwinCo or any of its Affiliated Companies during Director’s services as a director of TwinCo or any of its Affiliated Companies and (B) has not ceased employment with Buyer, TwinCo or any Affiliated Companies, as applicable, during the six (6) month period preceding such solicitation or recruitment.

Director hereby agrees that, for two (2) years following the Effective Time, Director shall not, without the prior written consent of Buyer’s Chief Executive Officer, which consent may be withheld at the sole discretion of Buyer’s Chief Executive Officer, directly or indirectly, on behalf of himself or herself or of anyone other than TwinCo, Buyer or any Affiliated Company, in the Restricted Area (as defined in Section 2(d) below), solicit or attempt to solicit any customer or client, or any prospective customer or client, of TwinCo during Director’s services as a director of TwinCo or any of its Affiliated Companies, for the purpose of either (i) providing any Business Activities (as defined in Section 2(d)) or (ii) inducing such customer or client, or prospective customer or client, to cease, reduce, restrict or divert its business with TwinCo, Buyer or any Affiliated Company. It is acknowledged that general advertisements not specifically targeted at customers or clients, or any prospective customers or clients, of TwinCo during Director’s services as a director of TwinCo or any of its Affiliated Companies shall not be deemed to violate this provision. Nothing in this Section 2(c) is intended to restrict Director and Director’s Affiliates from making decisions regarding the banking relationships (or change in banking relationships) with respect to their own businesses and with respect to any accounts over which they have fiduciary responsibilities.

(d) Noncompetition. Director hereby agrees that, for two (2) years following the Effective Time, Director shall not, without the prior written consent of Buyer’s Chief Executive Officer, which consent may be withheld at the sole discretion of Buyer’s Chief Executive Officer, prepare or apply to commence, or engage or participate in, Business Activities as an officer, director, manager, owner, partner, joint venture, consultant, independent contractor, employee, or shareholder of, or otherwise on behalf of, any other Person, business or enterprise that competes in the Restricted Area with Buyer and its Affiliated Companies with respect to Business Activities.

(e) Enforceability of Covenants. Director acknowledges and agrees that the covenants in this Agreement are direct consideration for a sale of a business and should be governed by standards applicable to restrictive covenants entered into in connection with a sale of a business. Director acknowledges that each of Buyer and its Affiliated Companies have a current and future expectation of business within the Restricted Area and from the current and proposed customers of TwinCo that are derived from the acquisition of TwinCo by Buyer. Director acknowledges that the term, geographic area, and scope of the covenants set forth in this Agreement are reasonable, and agrees that he or she will not, in any action, suit or other proceeding, deny the reasonableness of, or assert the unreasonableness of, the premises, consideration or scope of the covenants set forth herein. Director agrees that his or her position as a director of TwinCo involves duties and authority relating to all aspects of the Business Activities and all of the Restricted Area. Director further acknowledges that complying with the provisions contained in this Agreement will not preclude him or her from engaging in a lawful profession, trade or business, or from becoming gainfully employed. Director and Buyer agree that Director’s obligations under the above covenants are separate and distinct under this Agreement, and the failure or alleged failure of Buyer to perform its obligations under any other provisions of this Agreement shall not constitute a defense to the enforceability of this covenant. Director and Buyer agree that if any portion of the foregoing provisions is deemed to be unenforceable because the geography, time or scope of activities restricted is deemed to be too broad, the court shall be authorized to substitute for the overbroad term an enforceable term that will enable the enforcement of the covenants to the maximum extent possible under applicable law. Director acknowledges and agrees that any breach or threatened breach of this covenant will result in irreparable damage and injury to Buyer and its Affiliated Companies and that damages arising out of such breach would be difficult to ascertain. Director hereby agrees that, in addition to all other remedies provided at law or in equity, Buyer will be entitled to exercise all rights including, without limitation, obtaining one or more temporary restraining orders, injunctive relief and other equitable relief, including specific performance in the event of any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, without the necessity of posting any bond or security (all of which are waived by Director), and to exercise all other rights or remedies, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, the rights to damages.

(b) This Agreement may be assigned by, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Buyer and any of its Affiliated Companies and their successors and assigns.

Section 4. Miscellaneous.

(a) Waiver. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing signed by Director and Buyer. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of provisions or conditions at the same or any prior or subsequent time.

(b) Litigation Expenses. In the event that a party seeks to obtain or enforce any right or benefit provided by this Agreement through litigation, and in the event that such party prevails in any such litigation pursuant to which an arbitral panel, court or other Governmental Authority issues a final order, judgment, decree or award granting substantially the relief sought, then the prevailing party shall be entitled upon demand to be paid by the other party, all reasonable costs incurred in connection with such litigation, including the reasonable legal fees and charges of counsel.

(c) Governing Law and Forum Selection. Buyer and Director agree that this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Montana without giving effect to its conflicts of law principles. Director agrees that any action to enforce this Agreement, as well as any action relating to or arising out of this Agreement, shall be filed only in the state and federal courts of Montana. With respect to any such court action, Director hereby (i) irrevocably submits to the personal jurisdiction of such courts; (ii) consents to service of process; (iii) consents to venue; and (iv) waives any other requirement (whether imposed by statute, rule of court, or otherwise) with respect to personal jurisdiction, service of process, or venue. Both parties hereto further agree that the state and federal courts of Montana are convenient forums for any dispute that may arise herefrom and that neither party shall raise as a defense that such courts are not convenient forums.

(d) Notices. Any notice, consent, demand, request or other communication given to a party hereto in connection with this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given such party (i) when delivered personally to such party or (ii) provided that a written acknowledgement of receipt is obtained, five (5) days after being sent by prepaid certified or registered mail or two (2) days after being sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier, to the address (if any) specified below for such party (or to such other address as such party shall have specified by ten (10) days’ advance notice given in accordance with this Section 4(d)), or (iii) in the case of Buyer only, on the first business day after it is sent by facsimile to the facsimile number set forth below (or to such other facsimile number as shall have been specified by ten (10) days’ advance notice given in accordance with this Section 4(d)), with a confirmation copy sent by certified or registered mail or by overnight courier in accordance with this Section 4(d).
