PLAN OF CONVERSION

OF

HOME BANK

This Plan of Conversion (“Plan”) provides for the conversion of Home Bank (“Bank”), from a federally chartered mutual savings bank to a federally chartered stock savings bank. This Plan also provides that the Bank shall operate as a wholly owned subsidiary of a stock holding company (“Holding Company”) and that non-transferable subscription rights to purchase the common stock of the Holding Company (“Conversion Stock”) shall be granted to certain deposit account holders and borrower members, if any, of the Bank pursuant to this Plan and in accordance with the regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision (“OTS”). The Conversion will raise additional capital which will permit the Bank to continue to grow and diversify its lending and investment activities thereby permitting the Bank to further enhance its capabilities to serve the borrowing and other financial needs of the communities it serves. The larger capital base and the holding company structure will also facilitate possible acquisitions of other financial institutions or financial service companies.

This Plan, which has been approved by the required two-thirds vote of the Board of Directors of the Bank, is subject to further approval by the affirmative vote of a majority of the total outstanding votes held by voting members of the Bank at a special meeting to be called for that purpose.

Stock to be offered in the Subscription Offering, Community Offering and/or Syndicated Community Offering. The Actual Purchase Price and the total number of shares of Conversion Stock to be issued in the Offerings shall be determined by the Boards of Directors of the Holding Company and the Bank upon conclusion of such offerings in consultation with the Independent Appraiser and any financial advisor or investment banker retained by the Bank in connection with such offerings.

(c) Subject to the approval of the OTS, the Estimated Price Range may be increased or decreased to reflect market and economic conditions prior to completion of the Conversion or to fill the order of the Tax-Qualified Employee Stock Benefit Plans, and under such circumstances the Holding Company may increase or decrease the total number of shares of Conversion Stock to be issued in the Conversion to reflect any such change. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Plan, no resolicitation of subscribers shall be required and subscribers shall not be permitted to modify or cancel their subscriptions unless the gross proceeds from the sale of the Conversion Stock issued in the Conversion are less than the minimum or more than 15% above the maximum of the Estimated Price Range set forth in the Prospectus. In the event of an increase in the total number of shares offered in the Conversion due to an increase in the Estimated Price Range, the priority of share allocation shall be as set forth in this Plan.

(a) Each Eligible Account Holder shall receive, without payment, non-transferable Subscription Rights to purchase up to the greater of (i) $250,000 of Conversion Stock (or such maximum purchase limitation as may be established for the Community Offering and/or Syndicated Community Offering or Public Offering), (ii) one-tenth of one percent (0.1%) of the total offering of shares in the Subscription Offering or (iii) 15 times the product (rounded down to the next whole number) obtained by multiplying the total number of shares of Conversion Stock offered in the Subscription Offering by a fraction, of which the numerator is the amount of the Qualifying Deposits of the Eligible Account Holder and the denominator is the total amount of all Qualifying Deposits of all Eligible Account Holders, in each case subject to Sections 10 and 13 hereof.

(b) In the event of an oversubscription for shares of Conversion Stock pursuant to Section 5(a), available shares shall be allocated among subscribing Eligible Account Holders so as to permit each such Eligible Account Holder, to the extent possible, to purchase a number of shares which will make his or her total allocation equal to the lesser of the number of shares subscribed for or 100 shares. Any available shares remaining after each subscribing Eligible Account Holder has been allocated the lesser of the number of shares subscribed for or 100 shares shall be allocated among the subscribing Eligible Account Holders in the proportion which the Qualifying Deposit of each such subscribing Eligible Account Holder bears to the total Qualifying Deposits of all such subscribing Eligible Account Holders, provided that no fractional shares shall be issued. Subscription Rights of Eligible Account Holders shall be subordinated to the priority rights of the ESOP to purchase shares in excess of the Maximum Shares, as defined in Section 6 below. Subscription Rights of Eligible Account Holders who are also Directors or Officers of the Bank and their Associates shall be subordinated to those of other Eligible Account Holders to the extent that they are attributable to increased deposits during the one year period preceding the Eligibility Record Date.

Tax-Qualified Employee Stock Benefit Plans shall receive, without payment, non-transferable Subscription Rights to purchase in the aggregate up to 10% of the Conversion Stock, including shares of Conversion Stock to be issued in the Conversion as a result of an increase in the Estimated Price Range after commencement of the Subscription Offering and prior to completion of the Conversion. The subscription rights granted to Tax-Qualified Employee Stock Benefit Plans shall be subject to the availability of shares of Conversion Stock after taking into account the shares of Conversion Stock purchased by Eligible Account Holders, provided, however, that in the event that the total number of shares offered in the Conversion is increased to an amount greater than the number of shares representing the maximum of the Estimated Price Range as set forth in the Prospectus (“Maximum Shares”), the ESOP shall have a priority right to purchase any such shares exceeding the Maximum Shares up to an aggregate of 8% of the Conversion Stock. Shares of Conversion Stock purchased by any individual participant (“Plan Participant”) in a Tax-Qualified Employee Stock Benefit Plan using funds therein pursuant to the exercise of subscription rights granted to such Participant in his individual capacity as an Eligible Account Holder and/or Supplemental Eligible Account Holder and/or purchases by such Plan Participant in the Community Offering shall not be deemed to be purchases by a Tax-Qualified Employee Stock Benefit Plan for purposes of calculating the maximum amount of Conversion Stock that Tax-Qualified Employee Stock Benefit Plans may purchase pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 6 if the individual Plan Participant controls or directs the investment authority with respect to such account or subaccount. Consistent with applicable laws and regulations and policies and practices of the OTS, the ESOP may use funds contributed by the Holding Company or the Bank and/or borrowed from an independent financial institution to exercise such Subscription Rights, and the Holding Company and the Bank may make scheduled discretionary contributions thereto, provided that such contributions do not cause the Holding Company or the Bank to fail to meet any applicable capital maintenance requirements.

(a) In the event that the Eligibility Record Date is more than 15 months prior to the date of the latest amendment to the Application for Conversion filed prior to OTS approval, then, and only in that event, each Supplemental Eligible Account Holder shall receive, without payment, non-transferable Subscription Rights to purchase up to the greater of (i) $250,000 of Conversion Stock (or such maximum purchase limitation as may be established for the Community Offering and/or Syndicated Community Offering or Public Offering), (ii) one-tenth of one percent (0.1%) of the total offering of shares in the Subscription Offering or (iii) 15 times the product (rounded down to the next whole number) obtained by multiplying the total number of shares of Conversion Stock offered in the Subscription Offering by a fraction, of which the numerator is the amount of the Qualifying Deposits of the Supplemental Eligible Account Holder and the denominator is the total amount of all Qualifying Deposits of all Supplemental Eligible Account Holders, subject to the availability of shares of Conversion Stock for purchase after taking into account the shares of Conversion Stock purchased by Eligible Account Holders and Tax-Qualified Employee Stock Benefit Plans through the exercise of Subscription Rights under Sections 5 and 6 hereof, and subject to Sections 10 and 13 hereof.

(b) In the event of an oversubscription for shares of Conversion Stock pursuant to Section 7(a), available shares shall be allocated among subscribing Supplemental Eligible Account Holders so as to permit each such Supplemental Eligible Account Holder, to the extent possible, to purchase a number of shares sufficient to make his or her total allocation (including the number of shares, if any, allocated in accordance with Section 5(a)) equal to the lesser of the number of shares subscribed for or 100 shares. Any remaining available shares shall be allocated among subscribing Supplemental Eligible Account Holders in the proportion that the amount of their respective Qualifying Deposits bears to the total amount of the Qualifying Deposits of all subscribing Supplemental Eligible Account Holders, provided that no fractional shares shall be issued.

(a) Each Other Member shall receive, without payment, non-transferable Subscription Rights to purchase up to the greater of (i) $250,000 of Conversion Stock in the Subscription Offering (or such maximum purchase limitation as may be established for the Community Offering and/or Syndicated Community Offering or Public Offering) or (ii) one-tenth of one percent (0.1%) of the total offering of shares in the Subscription Offering, in each case if and only to the extent that shares of Conversion Stock are available for purchase after taking into account the shares of Conversion Stock purchased by Eligible Account Holders, Tax-Qualified Employee Stock Benefit Plans and Supplemental Eligible Account Holders through the exercise of Subscription Rights under Sections 5, 6 and 7 hereof, and subject to Sections 10 and 13 hereof.

(b) If, pursuant to this Section 8, Other Members subscribe for a number of shares of Conversion Stock in excess of the total number of shares of Conversion Stock remaining, shares shall be allocated so as to permit each such Other Member, to the extent possible, to purchase a number of shares which will make his or her total allocation equal to the lesser of the number of shares subscribed for or 100 shares. Any shares remaining will be allocated among the subscribing Other Members whose subscriptions remain unsatisfied on an equal number of shares basis per order until all orders have been filled or the remaining shares have been allocated, provided no fractional shares shall be issued.

(a) If less than the total number of shares of the Conversion Stock are sold in the Subscription Offering, it is anticipated that all remaining shares of Conversion Stock shall, if practicable, be sold directly in a Community Offering and/or a Syndicated Community Offering. Subject to the requirements set forth herein, Conversion Stock sold in the Community Offering and/or the Syndicated Community Offering shall achieve the widest possible distribution of such stock.

Thereafter, any shares remaining will be allocated among the Preferred Subscribers whose subscriptions remain unsatisfied on an equal number of shares basis per order until all orders have been filled or the remaining shares have been allocated, subject to the provisions of Section 10 hereof, provided no fractional shares shall be issued.

The price to be paid by the underwriters in such an offering shall be equal to the Actual Purchase Price less an underwriting discount to be negotiated among such underwriters and the Bank and the Holding Company, subject to any required regulatory approval or consent.

(g) If for any reason a Syndicated Community Offering or Public Offering of shares of Conversion Stock not sold in the Subscription Offering and the Community Offering cannot be effected, or in the event that an insignificant residue of shares of Conversion Stock is not sold in the Subscription Offering, Community Offering or Syndicated Community Offering, the Holding Company and the Bank shall use their best efforts to obtain other purchasers for such shares in such manner and upon such conditions as may be satisfactory to the OTS.

The Holding Company and the Bank may consider a number of factors, including, but not limited to, their current and projected future earnings, local and national economic conditions and the prevailing market for stocks in general and stocks of financial institutions in particular. The Holding Company and the Bank shall have the right to withdraw, terminate, suspend, delay, revoke or modify any such Subscription Offering, at any time and from time to time, as it in its sole discretion may determine, without liability to any Person, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws and any necessary regulatory approval or concurrence.

(c) The Holding Company and the Bank shall, promptly after the SEC has declared the Prospectus effective and all required regulatory approvals have been obtained, distribute or make available the Prospectus, together with Order Forms for the purchase of Conversion Stock, to all Participants for the purpose of enabling them to exercise their respective Subscription Rights, subject to Section 13 hereof. The Holding Company and the Bank may elect to mail a Prospectus and Order Form only to those Participants who request such materials by returning a postage-paid card to the Holding Company and the Bank by a date specified in the letter informing them of their Subscription Rights. Under such circumstances, the Subscription Offering shall not be closed until the expiration of 30 days after the mailing by the Holding Company and the Bank of the postage-paid card to Participants.

(d) A single Order Form for all Deposit Accounts maintained with the Bank by an Eligible Account Holder and a Supplemental Eligible Account Holder may be furnished irrespective of the number of Deposit Accounts maintained with the Bank on the Eligibility Record Date and

13

Table of Contents

Supplemental Eligibility Record Date, respectively. No person holding a Subscription Right may exceed any otherwise applicable purchase limitation by submitting multiple orders for Conversion Stock. Multiple orders are subject to adjustment, as appropriate, on a pro rata basis and deposit balances will be divided equally among such orders in allocating shares in the event of an oversubscription.

(e) The recipient of an Order Form shall have no less than 20 days and no more than 45 days from the date of mailing of the Order Form (with the exact termination date to be set forth on the Order Form) to properly complete and execute the Order Form and deliver it to the Bank. The Holding Company and the Bank may extend such period by such amount of time as they determine is appropriate. Failure of any Participant to deliver a properly executed Order Form to the Bank, along with payment (or authorization for payment by withdrawal) for the shares of Conversion Stock subscribed for, within the time limits prescribed, shall be deemed a waiver and release by such person of any rights to subscribe for shares of Conversion Stock. Each Participant shall be required to confirm to the Holding Company and the Bank by executing an Order Form that such Person has fully complied with all of the terms, conditions, limitations and restrictions in the Plan.

(f) The Holding Company and the Bank shall have the absolute right, in their sole discretion and without liability to any Participant or other Person, to reject any Order Form, including, but not limited to, any Order Form (i) that is improperly completed or executed; (ii) that is not timely received; (iii) that is submitted by facsimile or is photocopied; (iv) that is not accompanied by the proper payment (or authorization of withdrawal for payment) or, in the case of institutional investors in the Community Offering, not accompanied by an irrevocable order together with a legally binding commitment to pay the full amount of the purchase price prior to 48 hours before the completion of the Offerings; (v) submitted by a Person whose representations the Holding Company and the Bank believe to be false or who they otherwise believe, either alone, or acting in concert with others, is violating, evading or circumventing, or intends to violate, evade or circumvent, the terms and conditions of the Plan. Furthermore, in the event Order Forms (i) are not delivered and are returned to the Bank by the United States Postal Service or the Bank is unable to locate the addressee, or (ii) are not mailed pursuant to a “no mail” order placed in effect by the account holder, the Subscription Rights of the person to which such rights have been granted will lapse as though such person failed to return the contemplated Order Form within the time period specified thereon. The Holding Company and the Bank may, but will not be required to, waive any irregularity on any Order Form or may require the submission of corrected Order Forms or the remittance of full payment for shares of Conversion Stock by such date as they may specify. The interpretation of the Holding Company and the Bank of the terms and conditions of the Order Forms shall be final and conclusive.

(a) Payment for shares of Conversion Stock subscribed for by Participants in the Subscription Offering and payment for shares of Conversion Stock ordered by Persons in the Community Offering shall be equal to the Initial Purchase Price per share multiplied by the number of shares which are being subscribed for or ordered, respectively. Such payment may be made in cash, if delivered in person, or by check or money order at the time the Order Form is delivered to the Bank. The Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion, may also elect to receive payment for shares

14

of Conversion Stock by wire transfer. In addition, the Holding Company and the Bank may elect to provide Participants and/or other Persons who have a Deposit Account with the Bank the opportunity to pay for shares of Conversion Stock by authorizing the Bank to withdraw from such Deposit Account an amount equal to the aggregate Initial Purchase Price of such shares. Payment may also be made by a Participant using funds held for such Participant’s benefit by a Bank Benefit Plan to the extent that such plan allows participants or any related trust established for the benefit of such participants to direct that some or all of their individual accounts or sub-accounts be invested in Conversion Stock. If the Actual Purchase Price is less than the Initial Purchase Price, the Bank shall refund the difference to all Participants and other Persons, unless the Holding Company and the Bank choose to provide Participants and other Persons the opportunity on the Order Form to elect to have such difference applied to the purchase of additional whole shares of Conversion Stock. If the Actual Purchase Price is more than the Initial Purchase Price, the Bank shall reduce the number of shares of Conversion Stock ordered by Participants and other Persons and refund any remaining amount which is attributable to a fractional share interest, unless the Bank chooses to provide Participants and other Persons the opportunity to increase the Actual Purchase Price submitted to it.

(b) Consistent with applicable laws and regulations and policies and practices of the OTS, payment for shares of Conversion Stock subscribed for by the ESOP may be made with funds contributed by the Holding Company or the Bank and/or funds obtained pursuant to a loan from the Holding Company or an unrelated financial institution pursuant to a loan commitment which is in force from the time that any such plan submits an Order Form until the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(c) If a Participant or other Person authorizes the Bank to withdraw the amount of the Initial Purchase Price from his or her Deposit Account, the Bank shall have the right to make such withdrawal or to freeze funds equal to the aggregate Initial Purchase Price upon receipt of the Order Form. Notwithstanding any regulatory provisions regarding penalties for early withdrawals from certificate accounts, the Bank may allow payment by means of withdrawal from certificate accounts without the assessment of such penalties. In the case of an early withdrawal of only a portion of such account, the certificate evidencing such account shall be cancelled if any applicable minimum balance requirement ceases to be met. In such case, the remaining balance will earn interest at the regular passbook rate. However, where any applicable minimum balance is maintained in such certificate account, the rate of return on the balance of the certificate account shall remain the same as prior to such early withdrawal. This waiver of the early withdrawal penalty applies only to withdrawals made in connection with the purchase of Conversion Stock and is entirely within the discretion of the Holding Company and the Bank.

(d) The Bank shall pay interest, at not less than the rate it pays on passbook accounts, for all amounts paid in cash, by check or money order to purchase shares of Conversion Stock in the Subscription Offering and the Community Offering from the date payment is received until the date the Conversion is completed or terminated.

(e) The Bank shall not knowingly loan funds or otherwise extend credit to any Participant or other Person to purchase Conversion Stock.

15

Table of Contents

(f) Each share of Conversion Stock shall be non-assessable upon payment in full of the Actual Purchase Price.

The Holding Company and the Bank shall make reasonable efforts to comply with the securities laws of all jurisdictions in the United States in which Participants reside. However, no Participant will be offered or receive any Conversion Stock under the Plan if such Participant resides in a foreign country or in a jurisdiction of the United States with respect to which: (a) there are few Participants otherwise eligible to subscribe for shares under this Plan who reside in such jurisdiction; (b) the granting of Subscription Rights or the offer or sale of shares of Conversion Stock to such Participants would require the Holding Company or the Bank or their respective Directors and Officers, under the laws of such jurisdiction, to register as a broker or dealer, salesman or selling agent or to register or otherwise qualify the Conversion Stock for sale in such jurisdiction, or the Holding Company or the Bank would be required to qualify as a foreign corporation or file a consent to service of process in such jurisdiction; or (c) such registration or qualification in the judgment of the Holding Company and the Bank would be impracticable or unduly burdensome for reasons of cost or otherwise.

Following consummation of the Conversion, voting rights with respect to the Bank shall be held and exercised exclusively by the Holding Company as holder of all of the Bank’s voting capital stock and voting rights with respect to the Holding Company shall be held and exercised exclusively by the holders of the Holding Company’s voting capital stock.

(a) At the time of Conversion, the Bank shall establish a liquidation account in an amount equal to the Bank’s net worth as reflected in its latest statement of financial condition contained in the final Prospectus utilized in the Conversion. The function of the liquidation account will be to preserve the rights of certain holders of Deposit Accounts in the Bank who maintain such accounts in the Bank following Conversion to a priority to distributions in the unlikely event of a liquidation of the Bank subsequent to Conversion.

(b) The liquidation account shall be maintained for the benefit of Eligible Account Holders and Supplemental Eligible Account Holders, if any, who maintain their Deposit Accounts in the Bank after Conversion. Each such account holder will, with respect to each Deposit Account held, have a related inchoate interest in a portion of the liquidation account balance, which interest will be referred to in this Section 15 as the “subaccount balance.” All Deposit Accounts having the same social security number will be aggregated for purposes of determining the initial subaccount balance with respect to such Deposit Accounts, except as provided in Section 15 hereof.

(c) In the event of a complete liquidation of the Bank subsequent to Conversion (and only in such event), each Eligible Account Holder and Supplemental Eligible Account Holder, if any, shall be entitled to receive a liquidation distribution from the liquidation account in the amount of

16

Table of Contents

the then current subaccount balances for Deposit Accounts then held (adjusted as described below) before any liquidation distribution may be made with respect to the capital stock of the Bank. No merger, consolidation, sale of bulk assets or similar combination transaction with another FDIC-insured institution in which the Bank is not the surviving entity shall be considered a complete liquidation for this purpose. In any such transaction, the liquidation account shall be assumed by the surviving entity.

(d) The initial subaccount balance for a Deposit Account held by an Eligible Account Holder and Supplemental Eligible Account Holder, if any, shall be determined by multiplying the opening balance in the liquidation account by a fraction, of which the numerator is the amount of the Qualifying Deposits of such account holder and the denominator is the total amount of Qualifying Deposits of all Eligible Account Holders and, if applicable, Supplemental Eligible Account Holders. For Deposit Accounts in existence at both the Eligibility Record Date and the Supplemental Eligibility Record Date, if applicable, separate initial subaccount balances shall be determined on the basis of the Qualifying Deposits in such Deposit Accounts on each such record date. Initial subaccount balances shall not be increased, and shall be subject to downward adjustment as provided below.

(e) If the aggregate deposit balance in any Deposit Account(s) of any Eligible Account Holder or Supplemental Eligible Account Holder at the close of business on any December 31, annual closing date, commencing December 31, 2008, is less than the lesser of (a) the deposit balance in such Deposit Account(s) at the close of business on any other annual closing date subsequent to such record dates or (b) the deposit balance in such Deposit Account(s) as of the Eligibility Record Date or the Supplemental Eligibility Record Date, if any, the subaccount balance for such Deposit Account(s) shall be adjusted by reducing such subaccount balance in an amount proportionate to the reduction in such deposit balance. In the event of such a downward adjustment, the subaccount balance shall not be subsequently increased, notwithstanding any increase in the deposit balance of the related Deposit Account(s). The subaccount balance of an Eligible Account Holder or Supplemental Eligible Account Holder, if any, shall be reduced to zero if such holder ceases to maintain a Deposit Account at the Bank that has the same social security number as appeared on his or her Deposit Account(s) at the Eligibility Record Date or, if applicable, the Supplemental Eligibility Record Date.

(f) Subsequent to Conversion, the Bank may not pay cash dividends generally on deposit accounts and/or capital stock of the Bank, or repurchase any of the capital stock of the Bank, if such dividend or repurchase would reduce the Bank’s net worth below the aggregate amount of the then current subaccount balances for Deposit Accounts then held; otherwise, the existence of the liquidation account shall not operate to restrict the use or application of any of the net worth accounts of the Bank.

(g) For purposes of this Section 15, a Deposit Account includes a predecessor or successor account which is held only by an account holder with the same social security number.

17

Table of Contents

Each Deposit Account in the Bank at the time of the consummation of the Conversion shall become, without further action by the holder, a Deposit Account in the Bank equivalent in withdrawable amount to the withdrawal value (as adjusted to give effect to any withdrawal made for the purchase of Conversion Stock), and subject to the same terms and conditions (except as to voting and liquidation rights) as such Deposit Account in the Bank immediately preceding consummation of the Conversion. Holders of Deposit Accounts in the Bank shall not, as such holders, have any voting rights.

In connection with the Conversion, the Holding Company shall register its common stock pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and shall undertake not to deregister such stock for a period of three years thereafter. The Holding Company also shall use its best efforts to (i) encourage and assist a market maker to establish and maintain a market for its common stock; and (ii) list its common stock on a national or regional securities exchange.

Each person serving as a Director or Officer of the Bank at the time of the Conversion shall continue to serve as a Director or Officer of the Bank for the balance of the term for which the person was elected prior to the Conversion, and until a successor is elected and qualified.

For a period of three years following the Conversion, the Directors and Officers of the Holding Company and the Bank and their Associates may not purchase, without the prior written approval of the OTS, the Holding Company Common Stock except from a broker or dealer registered with the SEC. This prohibition shall not apply, however, to (i) a negotiated transaction arrived at by direct negotiation between buyer and seller and involving more than 1% of the outstanding common stock of the Holding Company, (ii) purchases of stock made by and held by any Tax-Qualified Employee Stock Benefit Plan (and purchases of stock made by and held by any Non-Tax-Qualified Employee Stock Benefit Plan following receipt of stockholder approval of such plan) that may be attributable to individual Officers or Directors and (iii) the exercise of any options pursuant to any stock benefit plan of the Holding Company.

The foregoing restriction on purchases of Holding Company Common Stock shall be in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed by federal and state securities laws.

All shares of the Conversion Stock which are purchased by Persons other than Directors and Officers shall be transferable without restriction, except in connection with a transaction proscribed

18

Table of Contents

by Section 21 of this Plan. Shares of Conversion Stock purchased by Directors and Officers of the Holding Company and the Bank on original issue from the Holding Company (by subscription or otherwise) shall be subject to the restriction that such shares shall not be sold or otherwise disposed of for value for a period of one year following the date of purchase, except for any disposition of such shares following the death of the original purchaser or pursuant to any merger or similar transaction approved by the OTS. The shares of Conversion Stock issued by the Holding Company to Directors and Officers shall bear the following legend giving appropriate notice of such one-year restriction:

“The shares of stock evidenced by this Certificate are restricted as to transfer for a period of one year from the date of this Certificate pursuant to Part 563b of the Rules and Regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision. These shares may not be transferred during such one-year period without a legal opinion of counsel for the Company that said transfer is permissible under the provisions of applicable law and regulation. This restrictive legend shall be deemed null and void after one year from the date of this Certificate.”

In addition, the Holding Company shall give appropriate instructions to the transfer agent for the Holding Company Common Stock with respect to the applicable restrictions relating to the transfer of restricted stock. Any shares issued at a later date as a stock dividend, stock split or otherwise with respect to any such restricted stock shall be subject to the same holding period restrictions as may then be applicable to such restricted stock.

The foregoing restriction on transfer shall be in addition to any restrictions on transfer that may be imposed by federal and state securities laws.

Upon consummation of the Conversion, the charter of the Bank, the articles of incorporation of the Holding Company shall prohibit any Person together with Associates or group of Persons acting in concert from offering to acquire or acquiring, directly or indirectly, beneficial ownership of more than 10% of any class of equity securities of the Holding Company, or of securities convertible into more than 10% of any such class following completion of the Conversion. The articles of incorporation also shall provide that following the completion of the Conversion all equity securities beneficially owned by any Person in excess of 10% of any class of equity securities shall be considered “excess shares,” and that excess shares shall not be counted as shares entitled to vote and shall not be voted by any Person or counted as voting shares in connection with any matters submitted to the stockholders for a vote. The foregoing restrictions shall not apply to (i) any offer with a view toward public resale made exclusively to the Holding Company by underwriters or a selling group acting on its behalf, (ii) the purchase of shares by a Tax-Qualified Employee Stock Benefit Plan established for the benefit of the employees of the Holding Company and its subsidiaries which is exempt from approval requirements under 12 C.F.R. Section 574.3(c)(1)(vii) or any successor thereto and (iii) any offer or acquisition approved in advance by the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the entire Board of Directors of the Holding Company. Directors, Officers or Employees of the Holding Company or the Bank or any subsidiary thereof shall not be deemed to be Associates or a group acting in concert with respect to their individual acquisitions of any class of equity securities of the Holding Company solely as a result of their capacities as such.

As part of the Conversion, the Bank shall take all appropriate steps to adopt a federal stock charter and bylaws to authorize the issuance of capital stock and otherwise to read in a form consistent with a federally chartered stock form savings bank.

Consummation of the Conversion is expressly conditioned upon prior receipt by the Bank of either a ruling or an opinion of counsel with respect to federal tax laws, and either a ruling or an opinion of counsel with respect to Louisiana tax laws, to the effect that consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not result in a taxable reorganization under the provisions of the applicable codes or otherwise result in any adverse tax consequences to the Holding Company, the Bank and its account holders receiving Subscription Rights before or after the Conversion, except in each case to the extent, if any, that Subscription Rights are deemed to have fair market value on the date such rights are issued.

(a) The Holding Company and the Bank are authorized to adopt Tax-Qualified Employee Stock Benefit Plans in connection with the Conversion, including, without limitation, the ESOP.

(b) Subsequent to the Conversion, the Holding Company and the Bank are authorized to adopt Non-Tax Qualified Employee Stock Benefit Plans, including without limitation, stock option plans and restricted stock plans, provided however that, with respect to any such plan implemented during the one-year period subsequent to the date of consummation of the Conversion, any such plan: (i) shall be disclosed in the proxy solicitation materials for the Special Meeting of Members and in the Prospectus; (ii) in the case of stock option plans, shall have a total number of shares of common stock for which options may be granted of not more than 10% of the amount of shares issued in the Conversion; (iii) in the case of management or employee recognition or grant plans, shall have a total number of shares of common stock of not more than 4% of the amount of shares issued in the Conversion; (iv) in the case of stock option plans and employee recognition or grant plans, shall be submitted for approval by the holders of the Holding Company Common Stock no earlier than six months following consummation of the Conversion; and (v) shall comply with all other applicable requirements of the OTS.

(c) Existing as well as any newly created Tax-Qualified Employee Stock Benefit Plans may purchase shares of Conversion Stock in the Offerings, to the extent permitted by the terms of such benefit plans and this Plan.

(d) The Holding Company and the Bank are authorized to enter into employment or severance agreements with their executive officers.

(a) Following consummation of the Conversion, any repurchases of shares of capital stock by the Holding Company will be made in accordance with then applicable laws and regulations.

(b) The Bank may not declare or pay a cash dividend on, or repurchase any of, its capital stock if the effect thereof would cause the regulatory capital of the Bank to be reduced below the amount required for the liquidation account. Any dividend declared or paid on, or repurchase of, the Bank’s capital stock shall be made in compliance with 12 C.F.R. Section 563.140 et. seq., or any successor thereto.

The Bank may elect to offer to pay fees on a per share basis to securities brokers who assist Persons in determining to purchase shares in the Offerings.

The effective date of the Conversion shall be the date of the closing of the sale of all shares of Conversion Stock. The closing of the sale of all shares of Conversion Stock sold in the Offerings shall occur simultaneously and shall be conditioned upon the prior receipt of all requisite regulatory and other approvals.

If deemed necessary or desirable by the Board of Directors of the Bank, this Plan may be substantively amended, as a result of comments from regulatory authorities or otherwise, at any time prior to the solicitation of proxies from Members to vote on the Plan and at any time thereafter with the concurrence of the OTS. Any amendment to this Plan made after approval by the Members with the concurrence of the OTS shall not necessitate further approval by the Members unless otherwise required by the OTS. This Plan shall terminate if the sale of all shares of Conversion Stock is not completed within 24 months from the date of the Special Meeting (subject to extension by the OTS). Prior to the Special Meeting, this Plan may be terminated by the Board of Directors of the Bank without approval of the OTS; after the Special Meeting, the Board of Directors may terminate this Plan only with the approval of the OTS.

All interpretations of this Plan and application of its provisions to particular circumstances by a majority of the Board of Directors of the Holding Company and the Bank shall be final, subject to the authority of the OTS.
