Within four (4) Business Days after the later of the receipt of information from PSBK’s transfer agent or the Effective Time, FCAL shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record as of the Effective Time (a “Record Holder”) of a Certificate or Certificates, a letter of transmittal in form mutually agreed upon by FCAL and PSBK (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent), and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the FCAL Common Stock (and cash in lieu of fractional shares) as provided in Section 3.1 hereof.

3.2.2 Surrender of Certificates. Upon surrender of Certificates for exchange and cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and executed, the Record Holder shall be entitled to promptly receive in exchange for such Certificates (i) the Per Share Stock Consideration rounded down to the closest whole number and (ii) a check in the amount equal to the cash in lieu of fractional shares, if any, which such Record Holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof.

3.2.5 FCAL and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to rely upon PSBK’s stock transfer books to establish the identity of those persons entitled to receive the Stock Consideration or Adjusted Stock Consideration, as applicable, which books shall be conclusive with respect thereto.

FCAL or the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration paid in accordance with this Section on account of PSBK Options such amounts as FCAL or the Exchange Agent is required to deduct and withhold from such payment under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law.

Any violation of the foregoing restrictions by PSBK or any Representative, whether or not such Representative is so authorized and whether or not such Representative is purporting to act on behalf of PSBK or otherwise, shall be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement by PSBK. PSBK shall, and shall cause each of their respective 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.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Acquisition Proposal” shall mean any inquiry, offer or proposal (other than an inquiry, offer or proposal from FCAL or FCB), 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 PSBK; (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, any assets of PSBK representing, in the aggregate, fifteen percent (15%) or more of the assets of PSBK; (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 ten percent (10%) or more of the votes attached to the outstanding securities of PSBK; (D) any tender offer or exchange offer that, if consummated, would result in any third party or group beneficially owning ten percent (10%) or more of any class of equity securities of PSBK; or (E) any transaction which is similar in form, substance or purpose to any of the foregoing transactions, or any combination of the foregoing.

6.10.2 Notwithstanding Section 6.10.1, PSBK may take any of the actions described in clause (ii) of Section 6.10.1 if, but only if: (i) PSBK has received a bona fide unsolicited written Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach of this Section 6.10; (ii) PSBK Board determines in good faith, after consultation with, and having considered the advice of, its outside legal counsel and its independent financial advisor, that (A) such Acquisition Proposal constitutes, or is reasonably likely to lead to, a Superior Proposal and (B) the failure to take such actions would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to PSBK’s shareholders under applicable law; (iii) PSBK has provided FCAL with at least five (5) Business Days’ prior notice of such determination; and (iv) prior to furnishing or affording access to any information or data with respect to PSBK or otherwise relating to an Acquisition Proposal, PSBK receives from such Person a confidentiality agreement with terms no less favorable to PSBK than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement. PSBK shall promptly provide to FCAL and FCB any non-public information regarding PSBK provided to any other Person that was not previously provided to FCAL or FCB, such additional information to be provided no later than the date of provision of such information to such other party.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Superior Proposal” shall mean any bona fide written proposal (on its most recently amended or modified terms, if amended or modified) made by a third party to enter into an Acquisition Transaction on terms that PSBK Board determines in its good faith judgment, after consultation with and having considered the advice of outside legal counsel and a financial advisor: (i) would result in a transaction that (A) involves consideration to the holders of the shares of PSBK Common Stock that is more favorable, from a financial point of view, than the consideration to be paid to PSBK’s shareholders pursuant to this Agreement, considering, among other things, the nature of the consideration being offered and any material regulatory approvals or other risks associated with the timing of the proposed transaction beyond or in addition to those specifically contemplated hereby, and which proposal is not conditioned upon obtaining additional financing and (B) is, in light of the other terms of such proposal, more favorable to PSBK’s shareholders than the Merger and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (ii) is reasonably likely to be completed on the terms proposed, in each case taking into account all legal, financial, regulatory and other aspects of the proposal.

6.10.3 PSBK shall promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) notify FCAL 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, PSBK 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) unless: (i) such materials constitute confidential information of the party making such offer or proposal under an effective confidentiality agreement; (ii) disclosure of such materials jeopardizes the attorney-client privilege; or (iii) disclosure of such materials contravenes any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree. PSBK agrees that it shall keep FCAL informed, on a 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).

6.10.4 Subject to Section 6.10.5, neither the PSBK Board nor any committee thereof shall: (i) withdraw, qualify or modify, or propose to withdraw, qualify or modify, in a manner adverse to FCAL and FCB in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Merger), the PSBK Recommendation (as defined in Section 8.2), or make any statement, filing or release, in connection with PSBK Shareholders Meeting or otherwise, inconsistent with the PSBK 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 PSBK Recommendation); (ii) approve or recommend, or propose to approve or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal; or (iii) enter into (or cause PSBK to enter into) any letter of intent, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement or other agreement (A) related to any Acquisition Transaction (other than a confidentiality agreement entered into in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.10.2 or (B) requiring PSBK to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

6.10.5 Notwithstanding Section 6.10.4, prior to the date of the PSBK Shareholders Meeting, the PSBK Board may approve or recommend to the shareholders of PSBK a Superior Proposal and withdraw, qualify or modify the PSBK Recommendation in connection therewith (a “PSBK Subsequent Determination”) after the fourth (4th) Business Day following FCAL and FCB’s receipt of a notice (the “Notice of Superior Proposal”) from PSBK advising FCAL and FCB that the PSBK Board has decided that a bona fide unsolicited written Acquisition Proposal that it received (that did not result from a breach of this Section 6.10) constitutes a Superior Proposal (it being understood that PSBK shall be required to deliver a new Notice of Superior Proposal in respect of any revised Superior Proposal from such third party or its Affiliates that PSBK proposes to accept) if, but only if, (i) the PSBK Board has reasonably determined in good faith, after consultation with and having considered the advice of outside legal counsel and a financial advisor, that the failure to take such actions would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to PSBK’s shareholders under applicable law, (ii) during the four (4) Business Day period after receipt of the Notice of Superior Proposal by FCAL and FCB, PSBK Board shall have cooperated and negotiated in good faith with FCAL and FCB to make such adjustments, modifications or amendments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement as would enable PSBK to proceed with the PSBK Recommendation without a PSBK Subsequent Determination; provided, however, that FCAL and FCB 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 such four (4) Business Day period, after taking into account any such adjusted, modified or amended terms as may have been proposed by FCAL and FCB since their receipt of such Notice of Superior Proposal, PSBK Board has again in good faith made the determination (A) in clause (i) of this Section 6.10.5 and (B) that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the changing, qualifying or modifying of the PSBK Recommendation or the making of a PSBK Subsequent Determination by the PSBK Board shall not change the approval of the PSBK Board for purposes of causing any Takeover Laws to be inapplicable to this Agreement and the Voting Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the Merger.

6.10.6 Nothing contained in this Section 6.10 shall prohibit PSBK or the PSBK Board from complying with PSBK’s obligations required under Rules 14d-9 and 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act; provided, however, that any such disclosure relating to an Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed a change in the PSBK Recommendation unless PSBK Board reaffirms the PSBK Recommendation in such disclosure.

6.11

6.11.1 PSBK agrees to consult with FCAL and FCB with respect to its loan, litigation and real estate valuation policies and practices (including loan classifications and levels of reserves). PSBK shall also consult with FCAL with respect to the character, amount and timing of restructuring charges to be taken by each of them in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and shall take such charges as FCAL shall reasonably request and which are not inconsistent with GAAP, provided that no such actions need be effected until FCAL shall have irrevocably certified to PSBK that all conditions set forth in Article IX to the obligation of FCAL to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby (other than the delivery of certificates or opinions) have been satisfied or, where legally permissible, waived.

If requested by FCAL or FCB, on the second Business Day immediately prior to the Effective Time, PSBK shall, consistent with GAAP, establish such additional accruals and reserves as may be necessary to conform its accounting and credit loss reserve practices and methods to those of FCAL and FCB (as such practices and methods are to be applied to PSBK from and after the Effective Time) and reflect FCAL and FCB’s plans with respect to the conduct of PSBK’s business following the Merger and to provide for the costs and expenses relating to the consummation by PSBK of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The establishment of such accruals and reserves shall not, in and of itself, constitute a breach of any representation or warranty of PSBK contained in the Agreement or constitute a Material Adverse Effect on the business (present or future), operations, or financial condition of PSBK.

6.11.3 Transaction Expenses. Based upon the final bills or estimates of such final bills, PSBK shall have paid or accrued for (i) all severance benefits under any PSBK Employment Agreement that will terminate as a result of the transactions contemplated herein, other than severance benefits required to be deferred for a period not to exceed 6 months from termination in order to comply with Section 409A of the Code that were in existence as of the date of this Agreement as shown on PSBK Disclosure Schedule 6.11.3; (ii) payments for retention of employees approved by FCAL and FCB; (iii) all fees and expenses of all attorneys, accountants and investment bankers of PSBK (collectively, the “Advisors”) for services rendered solely in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the fees and expenses to Hovde for the services provided by Hovde including the fee for the Fairness Opinion provided by Hovde in accordance with Sections 4.14 and 9.3.9; (iv) the cost of purchasing the Tail Coverage as provided for in Section 7.11.1; (v) penalties accrued or paid to the U.S. Treasury in connection with the repayment of TARP (excluding any dividends); (vi) any contract termination fees payable to vendors, for contracts approved by FCAL for termination as shown on PSBK Disclosure Schedule 6.11.3; (vii) fees for the conversion of PSBK data processing systems to FCAL systems as shown on PSBK Disclosure Schedule 6.11.3; and (viii) (vi) the costs of any application or other fees related to the Merger (collectively, the “PSBK Transaction Expenses”) in full prior to the Effective Time, and FCAL and FCB shall have received written evidence from PSBK to such effect prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of such PSBK Transaction Expenses including all severance

In place thereof, FCAL, FCB and PSBK agree as follows:

(A) FCAL and FCB on the one hand and PSBK on the other hand, in connection with entering into this Agreement and effectuating the transactions contemplated hereby each have made and will make available (the “Disclosing Party”) to the other party (the “Receiving Party”) “Confidential Information” (as defined below) regarding the Disclosing Party which the Disclosing Party desires to maintain as confidential and to have the Receiving Party refrain from using and taking certain other actions.

(B) The Receiving Party will not use, or permit the use of, any portion of the Confidential Information for any purpose except for the purpose of carrying out the transaction contemplated by the Agreement.

(C) The Receiving Party acknowledges the confidential nature and competitive value of the Confidential Information and agrees to receive, hold and treat all Confidential Information with the same degree of care and safeguard the confidentiality of the Confidential Information to the same extent, as Receiving Party would exercise with respect to Receiving Party’s own highly confidential and non-public information. Receiving Party’s will not disclose any portion of the Confidential Information to any person or entity except to Receiving Party’s officers, directors, agents and representatives who have a need to know such information for the purpose of carrying out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (such persons are hereinafter collectively referred to as (“Recipients”) and who must be required by Receiving Party prior to being provided with the Confidential Information, to agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement to the same extent as if they were parties hereto.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the event that Receiving Party’s legal counsel determines in writing that Receiving Party or Receiving Party’s Recipients are required by law, rule, regulation or administrative or judicial process to disclose any portion of the Confidential Information (the “Required Disclosure”), then Receiving Party shall promptly notify in writing Disclosing Party of such Required Disclosure, and provide a copy of the written determination of Receiving Party’s legal counsel, so that Disclosing Party may seek to obtain a protective order or other appropriate remedy preventing such Required Disclosure. If, within a reasonable period of time after Disclosing Party has received written notice from Receiving Party of such Required Disclosure, Disclosing Party has obtained a protective order or other appropriate remedy and Disclosing Party has not waived Receiving Party’s Recipients’ requirements to comply with the non-disclosure provisions hereof with respect to the Required Disclosure, then Receiving Party or Receiving Party’s Recipients may disclose that portion, and only that portion, of the Confidential Information that is required to be disclosed based on the written advice of Receiving Party’s legal counsel.

NOW, THEREFORE, FCB and PSBK, joined by FCAL, hereby agree that PSBK is to be merged with and into FCB on the following terms and conditions:

1. Merger of PSBK with and into FCB. At the Effective Time (as defined in Section 10), PSBK shall be merged with and into FCB which shall thereupon be the Surviving Bank and a subsidiary of FCAL. The separate corporate existence of PSBK shall cease and FCB shall succeed to the properties, rights, privileges, powers, immunities and franchises of PSBK. All rights of creditors and all liens upon the property of PSBK shall be preserved unimpaired, limited in lien to the property affected by such liens immediately prior to the Merger.

2. Effects of the Merger.

(a) The Banking Charter and Certificates of Authority of FCB issued by the California Department of Financial Institutions shall be and remain the Charter and Certificates of Authority of the Surviving Bank; and FCB’s insurance of deposits coverage by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation shall be and remain the insurance of deposits coverage of the Surviving Bank.

(b) Pursuant to California Financial Code Section 4888, the banking offices of PSBK shall become branch banking offices of FCB, the loan production offices of PSBK shall become the loan production offices of FCB, and all safe deposit, deposit and loan customers of PSBK shall, by operation of law, become customers of FCB.

3. Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws. The Articles of Incorporation of FCB as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be and remain the Articles of Incorporation of the Surviving Bank without change or amendment, until altered, amended or repealed as provided for therein or by law.

(b) The officers of FCB at the Effective Time will become the officers of the Surviving Bank and will hold office from the Effective Time until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed in the manner provided in the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Bank or as otherwise provided by law.

5. Conversion of Securities. In and by virtue of the Merger, the shares of FCAL stock, FCB Stock and PSBK Stock outstanding at the Effective Time shall be converted without any further action on the part of FCAL, FCB and PSBK, or any holder of PSBK Stock as follows:

(a) At the Effective Time, each issued and outstanding share of FCAL Stock shall not be changed or converted as a result of the Merger but shall remain outstanding as shares of FCAL Stock;

All of the shares of PSBK Stock converted into the Per Share Stock Consideration will no longer be outstanding and will automatically be canceled and retired and will cease to exist as of the Effective Time, and each certificate (each, a “Certificate”) previously representing any such shares of PSBK Stock will thereafter represent the right to receive the Per Share Stock Consideration as set forth in this Section 5(c). Certificates previously representing shares of PSBK Stock will be exchanged for the Per Share Stock Consideration upon the surrender of such Certificates according to Section 3.2 of the Reorganization Agreement, without any interest thereon.

(d) Dissenting Shares will not be converted as described in Section 5(c), but from and after the Effective Time will represent only the right to receive such value as may be determined under Chapter 13 of the Code.

(e) Excluded Shares will not be converted as described in Section 5(c), but from and after the Effective Time shall be canceled and shall cease to exist and no shares of FCAL Stock shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(f) In the case of stock options to purchase PSBK Stock (“PSBK Options”) granted under the 2000 Stock Option Plan of PSBK, such PSBK Options shall be accelerated in full so as to become fully exercisable in accordance the terms of the applicable equity plan and shall terminate at the Effective Time. Each PSBK Option that is not exercised or otherwise terminated on or before the Effective Time shall be cancelled and, in consideration for such cancellation, shall be converted into the right to receive shares of FCAL Stock determined in accordance with Section 3.3 of the Reorganization Agreement.

(g) At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of PSBK will be closed, and no transfer of PSBK Stock theretofore outstanding will thereafter be made.

6. Conditions to Consummation of the Merger.

For the convenience of the parties hereto, this Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, and all counterparts hereof so executed by the parties hereto, whether or not such counterpart will bear the execution of each of the parties hereto, will be deemed to be, and is to be construed as, one and the same Agreement. A telecopy or facsimile transmission of a signed counterpart of this Agreement is sufficient to bind the party or parties whose signature(s) appear thereon.

12. Governing Law. THIS MERGER AGREEMENT IS TO BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA (INCLUDING THOSE LAWS RELATING TO CHOICE OF LAW) APPLYING TO CONTRACTS ENTERED INTO AND TO BE PERFORMED WITHIN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, WITHOUT REGARD FOR THE PROVISIONS THEREOF REGARDING CHOICE OF LAW, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT FEDERAL LAW APPLIES UNDER CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES.

In addition, after discussing the matter with Undersigned, FCAL and/or the Surviving Bank shall have the right to inform any third party that FCAL and/or the Surviving Bank reasonably believes to be, or to be contemplating, participating with Undersigned or receiving from Undersigned assistance in violation of this Agreement, of the terms of this Agreement and of the rights of FCAL and/or the Surviving Bank hereunder, and that participation by any such Persons with Undersigned in activities in violation of Undersigned’s agreement with FCAL and/or the Surviving Bank set forth in this Agreement may give rise to claims by FCAL and/or the Surviving Bank against such third party.

4.5 Severability and Related Matters. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unreasonable as to duration, activity or subject, it shall be deemed to extend only over the maximum duration, range of activities or subjects as to which such provision shall be valid and enforceable under applicable law. If any provisions shall, for any reason, be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

4.6 Notices. Any notices or communication required or permitted hereunder, shall be deemed to have been given if in writing and (a) delivered in person, (b) delivered by confirmed facsimile or e-mail transmission, (c) sent by overnight carrier, postage prepaid with return receipt requested or (d) mailed by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid with return receipt requested, addressed as follows:

108

3. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Shareholder. Each Shareholder hereby represents, warrants and covenants to FCAL as follows:

(a) Each Shareholder has full power, authority and legal capacity to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by such Shareholder and constitutes the valid and binding obligation of such Shareholder, enforceable against such Shareholder in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by (i) the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, conservatorship, arrangement, moratorium or other laws affecting or relating to the rights of creditors generally, or (ii) the rules governing the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Shareholder does not, and the performance of such Shareholder’s obligations hereunder will not, result in any breach of or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any right to terminate, amend, accelerate or cancel any right or obligation under, or result in the creation of any lien or encumbrance on any Shares pursuant to, any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, lease, license, permit, franchise or other instrument or obligation to which such Shareholder is a party or by which such Shareholder or the Shares are or will be bound or affected. If Shareholder is married and the Shares constitute community property or if there otherwise is a need for spousal or other approval of this Agreement for it to be legal, valid and binding, this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of, Shareholder’s spouse, enforceable against such spouse in accordance with its terms.

(b) Until the Expiration Date, each Shareholder, in the Shareholder’s capacity as a shareholder of PSBK, will not (and will use such Shareholder’s reasonable best efforts to cause its affiliates, officers, directors and employees and any investment banker, attorney, accountant or other agent retained by such Shareholder or PSBK, not to): (i) initiate or solicit, directly or indirectly, any proposal, plan or offer to acquire all or any material part of the business or properties or capital stock of PSBK, whether by merger, purchase of assets, tender offer or otherwise, or to liquidate PSBK or otherwise distribute to the shareholders of PSBK all or any substantial part of the business, properties or capital stock of PSBK (each, an “Acquisition Proposal”); (ii) initiate, directly or indirectly, any contact with any person in an effort to or with a view towards soliciting any Acquisition Proposal; (iii) furnish information concerning PSBK’s business, properties or assets to any corporation, partnership, person or other entity or group (other than FCAL, or any affiliate, associate, agent or representative of FCAL) under any circumstances that could reasonably be expected to relate to an actual or potential Acquisition Proposal; (iv) negotiate or enter into discussions or an agreement, directly or indirectly, with any entity or group with respect to any potential Acquisition Proposal; or (v) either alone or together with any other shareholder of PSBK, request that a special meeting of the shareholders of PSBK be held to consider and vote on any Acquisition Proposal. In the event any Shareholder, in such Shareholder’s capacity as a shareholder of PSBK, shall receive or become aware of any Acquisition Proposal subsequent to the date hereof, such Shareholder shall promptly inform FCAL as to any such matter and the details thereof to the extent possible without breaching any other agreement to which such Shareholder is a party.

109

(c) Each Shareholder understands and agrees that if any Shareholder attempts to vote or provide any other person with the authority to vote any of the Shares held by such Shareholder as of the record date for any meeting at which such Shares are to be voted other than in compliance with this Agreement, PSBK shall not, and such Shareholder hereby unconditionally and irrevocably instructs PSBK to not, record such vote unless and until such Shareholder shall have complied with the terms of this Agreement.

5. No Limitation on Discretion as Director. If a Shareholder is a natural person and is a member of PSBK’s Board, then this Agreement will apply to the exercise by such Shareholder in his or her individual capacity as to rights attaching to the ownership of the Shares, and nothing herein shall be deemed to apply to, or to limit in any manner, the discretion of such Shareholder with respect to any action which may be taken or omitted by him or her, acting in his or her fiduciary capacity as member of such Board.

6. Additional Documents. Each Shareholder hereby covenants and agrees to execute and deliver any additional documents necessary or desirable, in the reasonable opinion of FCAL, to carry out the purpose and intent of this Agreement. At FCAL’s request each Shareholder and his spouse or other joint holder of the Shares will execute an irrevocable proxy providing FCAL with the ability and right to vote the Shareholder’s Shares at any meeting of the shareholders of PSBK or in connection with any solicitation of shareholder votes by PSBK by written consent.

7. Consent and Waiver. Each Shareholder hereby consents to and approves the actions taken by the board of directors of PSBK in approving the Merger and adopting the Merger Agreement and gives any consents or waivers that are reasonably required for the consummation of the Merger under the terms of any agreement to which such Shareholder is a party; provided, however, that such Shareholder shall not be required by this Section 7 to give any consent or waiver in his or her capacity as a director or officer of PSBK.

8. Termination. This Agreement and the proxy granted in connection herewith shall terminate and shall have no further force or effect as of the Expiration Date.

9. Confidentiality. Each Shareholder agrees (i) to hold any information regarding this Agreement and the Merger in strict confidence and (ii) not to divulge any such information to any third person, except to the extent any of the same is hereafter publicly disclosed by FCAL.

10. Obligations Attach to Shares; Survival; Acquisition of Additional Shares of Capital Stock of PSBK. Each Shareholder agrees that this Agreement and the obligations hereunder shall attach to such Shareholder’s Shares and shall be binding upon any person to which or whom legal or beneficial ownership of such Shares shall pass, whether by operation of law or otherwise, including such Shareholder’s heirs, guardians, administrators or successors, and that the transfer agent for the Shares shall be instructed not to record any transfer in violation of the terms of the Agreement. All authority herein conferred by a Shareholder shall survive the death or incapacity of such Shareholder and any obligation of a Shareholder hereunder shall be binding upon the heirs, guardians, administrators, personal representatives, successors and assigns of a Shareholder. In the event of any stock split, stock dividend, merger, reorganization,

110

recapitalization or other change in the capital structure of PSBK affecting the Shares, or the acquisition of additional shares of capital stock of PSBK by any Shareholder, the number of shares of capital stock of PSBK listed under the heading “Total Number of Shares of PSBK Capital Stock Subject to this Agreement” shall be adjusted appropriately and this Agreement and the obligations hereunder shall attach to any additional shares of capital stock of PSBK issued to or acquired by such Shareholder.

11. Miscellaneous.

(a) Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

(b) Binding Effect and Assignment. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to require a Shareholder, FCAL, PSBK, or any Subsidiaries, affiliates or directors of any of them to take any action or omit to take any action which action or omission would violate applicable law (whether statutory or common law), rule or regulation. This Agreement is intended to bind each Shareholder solely as a security holder of PSBK only with respect to the specific matters set forth herein.

(c) Amendment and Modification. Any provision of this Agreement may be (i) waived in whole or in part by the party benefited by the provision or by all parties or (ii) amended or modified at any time by an agreement in writing among the parties hereto executed in the same manner as this Agreement.

The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.
