AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

This AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER, dated as of August 25, 2020 (this “Agreement”), is by and between Broadway Financial Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“BYFC”) and CFBanc Corporation, a District of Columbia corporation (“CFB”). BYFC and CFB are sometimes referred to herein as a “party” or the “parties”.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Boards of Directors of BYFC and CFB have determined that it is in the best interests of their respective companies and stockholders to consummate the strategic business combination transaction provided for herein, pursuant to which CFB will, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, merge with and into BYFC (the “Merger”), so that BYFC is the surviving entity (hereinafter sometimes referred to in such capacity as the “Surviving Entity”) in the Merger;

WHEREAS, a principal strategic motivation of the parties hereto in entering into this Agreement and providing for the Merger is to create an institution with greater scale and capacity to expand the community development investments and initiatives by BYFC and CFB in their respective communities;

WHEREAS, in furtherance thereof, the respective Boards of Directors of BYFC and CFB have approved and declared advisable the Merger and adopted this Agreement;

WHEREAS, for federal income Tax purposes, it is intended that the Merger shall qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and this Agreement is intended to be and is adopted as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Section 1.368-2(g) of the regulations promulgated under the Code by the U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury Regulations”) for purposes of Sections 354, 361 and 368 of the Code; and

WHEREAS, the parties desire to make certain representations, warranties and agreements in connection with the Merger and also to prescribe certain conditions to the Merger.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, representations, warranties and agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE MERGER

1.1 The Merger. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended (the “DGCL”) and the District of Columbia Business Corporation Act of 2010, as amended (the “DC Code”), at the Effective Time, CFB shall merge with and into BYFC pursuant to this Agreement. BYFC shall be the Surviving Entity in the Merger, and shall continue its corporate existence under the laws

of the State of Delaware. Upon consummation of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of CFB shall terminate.

1.2 Closing. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) will take place by electronic exchange of documents at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on a date which shall be no later than three Business Days after the satisfaction or waiver (subject to applicable law) of all of the conditions set forth in Article VII hereof (other than those conditions that by their nature can only be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver thereof), unless another date, time or place is agreed to by CFB and BYFC. The date on which the Closing occurs is referred to as the “Closing Date.”

1.3 Effective Time. On or (if agreed by CFB and BYFC) prior to the Closing Date, BYFC and CFB, respectively, shall cause to be filed a certificate of merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Secretary”) and articles of merger with the Mayor of the District of Columbia (the “Mayor”) (collectively, the “Articles of Merger”). The BYFC Amended Certificate which (subject to approval by the stockholders of BYFC as set forth in this Agreement) will become effective at the Effective Time shall be attached as an exhibit to the certificate of merger filed with the Delaware Secretary. The Merger shall become effective at such time as specified in the Articles of Merger in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL and DC Code, or at such other time as shall be provided by applicable law (such time hereinafter referred to as the “Effective Time”).

1.4 Effects of the Merger. At and after the Effective Time, the Merger shall have the effects set forth in the applicable provisions of the DGCL and the DC Code.

1.5 Conversion of CFB Common Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of BYFC, CFB or the holder of any stock or other securities of BYFC or CFB:

(a) Subject to Section 2.2(e), (i) each share of the Class A Common Stock, par value $0.50 per share, of CFB issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “CFB Class A Common Stock”), except for shares of CFB Class A Common Stock owned by CFB or BYFC (in each case other than shares of CFB Class A Common Stock (A) held in trust accounts, managed accounts, mutual funds and the like, or otherwise held in a fiduciary or agency capacity that are beneficially owned by third parties or held in CFB Benefit Plans or (B) held, directly or indirectly, by CFB or BYFC in respect of debts previously contracted) and Dissenting Shares, shall be converted into 13.626 shares (the ratio of 1:13.626, the “Exchange Ratio,” and such shares, the “Class A Merger Consideration”) of the voting common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of BYFC (the “BYFC Voting Common Stock”) and (ii) each share of the Class B Common Stock, par value $0.50 per share, of CFB issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “CFB Class B Common Stock” and, together with the CFB Class A Common Stock, the “CFB Common Stock”), except for shares of CFB Class B Common Stock owned by CFB or BYFC (in each case other than shares of CFB Class B Common Stock (A) held in trust accounts, managed accounts, mutual funds and the like, or otherwise held in a fiduciary or agency capacity that are beneficially owned by third parties or held in CFB Benefit Plans or (B) held, directly or indirectly, by CFB or BYFC in respect of debts previously contracted) and Dissenting Shares, shall be converted using the Exchange Ratio into shares

(such shares, the “Class B Merger Consideration”) of Class B non-voting common stock, a new class of non-voting common stock of BYFC that will be authorized by the BYFC Amended Certificate, which will have substantially the same terms as the CFB Class B Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “New BYFC Non-Voting Common Stock”, and together with the Existing BYFC Non-Voting Common Stock and the BYFC Voting Common Stock, the “BYFC Common Stock”).

(b) All of the shares of CFB Stock converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, as applicable, pursuant to this Article I shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist as of the Effective Time, and each certificate (each, an “Old Certificate,” it being understood that any reference herein to “Old Certificate” shall be deemed to include reference to book-entry account statements relating to the ownership of shares of CFB Stock) previously representing any such shares of CFB Stock shall thereafter represent only the right to receive (i) a New Certificate representing the number of whole shares of applicable BYFC Stock into which such shares of CFB Stock have been converted, (ii) cash in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares into which the shares of CFB Stock represented by such Old Certificate have been converted pursuant to this Section 1.5 and Section 2.2(e), without any interest thereon and (iii) any dividends or distributions which the holder thereof has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.2, in each case, without any interest thereon. If, prior to the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of any BYFC Stock or CFB Stock or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for shares of any BYFC Stock or CFB Stock shall have been increased, decreased, changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or securities as a result of a reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, redenomination stock dividend or distribution, stock split or reverse stock split, or there shall be any extraordinary dividend or distribution, merger, issuer tender or exchange offer or other similar transaction, an appropriate and proportionate adjustment shall be made to the Exchange Ratio to give BYFC and the holders of CFB Stock the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event; provided, that nothing contained in this sentence shall be construed to permit CFB or BYFC to take any action with respect to its securities or otherwise that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at the Effective Time, all shares of CFB Common Stock that are owned by CFB or BYFC (in each case other than shares of CFB Common Stock (i) held in trust accounts, managed accounts, mutual funds and the like, or otherwise held in a fiduciary or agency capacity that are beneficially owned by third parties or held in CFB Benefit Plans or (ii) held, directly or indirectly, by CFB or BYFC in respect of debts previously contracted) shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist and no BYFC Common Stock or other consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

1.6 Conversion of CFB Preferred Stock. At the Effective Time, each share of Fixed Rate Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B, par value $0.50 per share, of CFB (the “CFB Preferred Stock” and, together with the CFB Common Stock, the “CFB Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one share (the “Preferred Merger Consideration”, and together with the Class A Merger Consideration and Class B Merger Consideration, the “Merger Consideration”) of Series A preferred stock of BYFC (the “BYFC Preferred Stock” and, together with the BYFC Common Stock, the “BYFC Stock”), which shall have such rights, preference, privileges, and voting

powers, and limitations and restrictions thereof, which, taken as a whole, are not materially less favorable to the holders of CFB Preferred Stock than the rights, preferences, privileges, and voting powers, and limitations and restrictions thereof, of the CFB Preferred Stock that are in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, taken as a whole.

1.7 BYFC Stock. At and after the Effective Time, each share of BYFC Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain an issued and outstanding share of common stock of the Surviving Entity and shall not be affected by the Merger.

1.8 Certificate of Incorporation of Surviving Entity. At the Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation of BYFC, as amended and as set forth in Exhibit A (such amendment, the “BYFC Amended Certificate”), shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Entity until thereafter amended in accordance with applicable law.

1.9 Bylaws of Surviving Entity. At the Effective Time, the bylaws of BYFC, as amended as set forth in Exhibit B (such amendment, the “BYFC Amended Bylaws”), shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Entity until thereafter amended in accordance with applicable law.

1.10 Tax Consequences. The parties (a) intend that the Merger will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and (b) adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-2(g) for the purposes of Sections 354, 361 and 368 of the Code.

1.11 Bank Merger. Immediately following the Merger, Broadway Federal Bank, f.s.b., and wholly owned Subsidiary of BYFC (“BYFC Subsidiary Bank”), will merge with and into City First Bank of D.C., National Association, a national banking association and wholly owned Subsidiary of CFB (“CFB Subsidiary Bank”) (the “Bank Merger”). CFB Subsidiary Bank shall be the surviving entity in the Bank Merger (the “Surviving Bank”) and, following the Bank Merger, the separate corporate existence of BYFC Subsidiary Bank shall cease. In connection with the Bank Merger, CFB, in its capacity as the sole shareholder of the CFB Subsidiary Bank, shall, and shall cause CFB Subsidiary Bank to, take all actions necessary to amend the CFB Subsidiary Bank’s articles of incorporation to change its name as mutually agreed to by the parties and to amend its bylaws and take such other actions as necessary to effect Section 6.11 hereof. Promptly after the date of this Agreement, CFB and BYFC shall cause CFB Subsidiary Bank and BYFC Subsidiary Bank, respectively, to enter into an agreement and plan of merger in form and substance agreed by CFB and BYFC, which shall be customary for mergers similar to the Bank Merger (the “Bank Merger Agreement”). Each of CFB and BYFC shall approve the Bank Merger Agreement and the Bank Merger as the sole stockholder of CFB Subsidiary Bank and BYFC Subsidiary Bank, respectively, and CFB and BYFC shall, and shall cause CFB Subsidiary Bank and BYFC Subsidiary Bank, respectively, to, execute certificates or articles of merger and such other documents and certificates as are necessary to make the Bank Merger effective (“Bank Merger Certificates”) immediately following the Effective Time. The Bank Merger shall become effective at such time and date as specified in the Bank Merger Agreement in accordance with applicable law, or at such other time as shall be provided by applicable law.

ARTICLE II

EXCHANGE OF SHARES

2.1 BYFC to Make Consideration Available. Prior to the Effective Time, BYFC shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with a bank or trust company mutually agreed upon by BYFC and CFB (the “Exchange Agent”), for exchange in accordance with this Article II for the benefit of the holders of Old Certificates, certificates or, at BYFC’s option, evidence in book-entry form, representing shares of BYFC Common Stock to be issued pursuant to Section 1.5 and BYFC Preferred Stock to be issued pursuant to Section 1.6 (collectively, referred to herein as “New Certificates”), and cash in lieu of any fractional shares to be paid pursuant to Section 2.2(e) (such cash and New Certificates, together with any dividends or distributions with respect to shares of BYFC Stock payable in accordance with Section 2.2(b), being referred to herein as the “Exchange Fund”).

2.2 Exchange of Shares.

(a) As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, but in no event later than five days thereafter, Surviving Entity shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of one or more Old Certificates representing shares of CFB Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time that have been converted at the Effective Time into the right to receive BYFC Stock pursuant to Article I, a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Old Certificates shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Old Certificates to the Exchange Agent) in form and substance mutually acceptable to CFB and BYFC and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Old Certificates in exchange for New Certificates representing the number of whole shares of BYFC Stock and any cash in lieu of fractional shares which the shares of CFB Stock represented by such Old Certificate or Old Certificates shall have been converted into the right to receive pursuant to this Agreement as well as any dividends or distributions to be paid pursuant to Section 2.2(b) (such materials and instructions to include customary provisions with respect to delivery of an “agent’s message” with respect to book-entry shares). Upon proper surrender of an Old Certificate or Old Certificates for exchange and cancellation to the Exchange Agent (it being understood that no certificates shall be required to be delivered for shares of CFB Stock held in book-entry at the Effective Time), together with such properly completed letter of transmittal, duly executed, if applicable, the holder of such Old Certificate or Old Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, (i) a New Certificate representing that number of whole shares of BYFC Stock to which such holder of CFB Stock shall have become entitled pursuant to the provisions of Article I and (ii) a check representing the amount of (A) any cash in lieu of fractional shares which such holder has the right to receive in respect of the Old Certificate or Old Certificates surrendered pursuant to the provisions of this Article II and (B) any dividends or distributions which the holder thereof has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.2(b), and the Old Certificate or Old Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued on any cash in lieu of fractional shares or dividends or distributions payable to holders of Old Certificates.

(b) No dividends or other distributions declared with respect to BYFC Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Old

Certificate until the holder thereof shall surrender such Old Certificate in accordance with this Article II. After the surrender of an Old Certificate in accordance with this Article II, the record holder thereof shall be entitled to receive any such dividends or other distributions, without any interest thereon, which theretofore had become payable with respect to the whole shares of BYFC Stock that the shares of CFB Stock represented by such Old Certificate have been converted into the right to receive.

(c) If any New Certificate representing shares of BYFC Stock is to be issued in a name other than that in which the Old Certificate or Old Certificates surrendered in exchange therefor is or are registered, it shall be a condition of the issuance thereof that the Old Certificate or Old Certificates so surrendered shall be properly endorsed (or accompanied by an appropriate instrument of transfer) and otherwise in proper form for transfer, and that the person requesting such exchange shall pay to the Exchange Agent in advance any transfer or other similar Taxes required by reason of the issuance of a New Certificate representing shares of BYFC Stock in any name other than that of the registered holder of the Old Certificate or Old Certificates surrendered, or required for any other reason, or shall establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(d) After the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of CFB of the shares of CFB Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Old Certificates representing such shares are presented for transfer to the Exchange Agent, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for New Certificates representing shares of BYFC Stock and any cash in lieu of fractional shares and/or in respect of dividends or distributions as provided in this Article II.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no New Certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of BYFC Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Old Certificates, no dividend or distribution with respect to BYFC Stock shall be payable on or with respect to any fractional share, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of BYFC. In lieu of the issuance of any such fractional share, the Surviving Entity shall pay to each former holder of CFB Common Stock who otherwise would be entitled to receive such fractional share an amount in cash (rounded to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying (i) the average of the daily closing-sale prices of BYFC Voting Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) as reported by Nasdaq (or, if not reported thereby, any other authoritative source) for the consecutive period of ten full trading days ending on the day preceding the Closing Date by (ii) the fraction of a share of BYFC Common Stock which such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to Section 1.5. The parties acknowledge that payment of such cash consideration in lieu of issuing fractional shares is not separately bargained-for consideration, but merely represents a mechanical rounding off for purposes of avoiding the expense and inconvenience that would otherwise be caused by the issuance of fractional shares.

(f) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by the shareholders of CFB for 12 months after the Effective Time shall be paid to the Surviving Entity. Any former holders of CFB Stock who have not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Entity for payment of the shares of BYFC Stock, cash in lieu of any fractional shares and any unpaid dividends and distributions on the BYFC Stock

deliverable in respect of each former share of CFB Stock such holder holds as determined pursuant to this Agreement, in each case, without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of BYFC, CFB, the Surviving Entity, the Exchange Agent or any other person shall be liable to any former holder of shares of CFB Stock for any amount that would have otherwise been payable in respect of any Old Certificate from the Exchange Fund delivered in good faith to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by former holders of shares of CFB Stock immediately prior to the time at which such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Entity shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, become the property of the Surviving Entity, free and clear of any claims or interest of any such holders or their successors, assigns or personal representatives previously entitled thereto.

(g) The Surviving Entity shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause the Exchange Agent to deduct and withhold, from any cash in lieu of fractional shares of BYFC Stock, cash dividends or distributions payable pursuant to this Section 2.2 or any other amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of CFB Stock, such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment or distribution under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld by the Surviving Entity or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be, and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Entity, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of CFB Stock in respect of which the deduction and withholding was made by the Surviving Entity or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be.

(h) In the event any Old Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, then upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Old Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Surviving Entity or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such person of a bond in such amount as Surviving Entity or the Exchange Agent may determine is reasonably necessary as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Old Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Old Certificate the shares of BYFC Stock, any cash in lieu of fractional shares and/or any dividends or distributions, as applicable, deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement.

(i) Rights of Former CFB Shareholders. If any Old Certificates shall not have been surrendered prior to three years after the Effective Time (or immediately prior to such earlier date on which the Merger Consideration would escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity), any such Merger Consideration in respect thereof shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, become the property of the Surviving Entity, free and clear of all claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.

2.3 Dissenting Shareholders.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shares of CFB Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by any holder who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such shares of CFB Stock pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, the provisions of Subchapter

XI of the DC Code (“Subchapter XI”) (the “Dissenting Shareholders”), shall not be converted into or be exchangeable for the right to receive any of the Merger Consideration (the “Dissenting Shares”), but instead such Holder shall be entitled to payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the provisions of Subchapter XI. At the Effective Time, all Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding, shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each Dissenting Shareholder shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the provisions of Subchapter XI. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such Dissenting Shareholder shall fail to perfect or otherwise shall waive, withdraw or lose the right to appraisal under Subchapter XI, or a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Subchapter XI, then such shares of CFB Stock shall cease to constitute Dissenting Shares and the right of such holder to be paid the fair value of such Holder’s Dissenting Shares under Subchapter XI shall be forfeited and cease and, if such forfeiture shall occur following the Effective Time, each such formerly Dissenting Shares shall thereafter be deemed to have been converted at the Effective Time into, and shall have become, the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 1.5(b) and Section 1.6, as applicable, any fractional share payment and any dividends or distributions pursuant to Section 1.5(b).

(b) CFB shall give BYFC prompt written notice (and in any event within 48 hours) of any demands for appraisal of any shares of CFB Stock and any withdrawals of such demands, and BYFC shall have the right to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. CFB shall not, except with the prior written consent of BYFC, voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle, or offer or agree to settle, any such demand for payment or waive any failure by any holder of CFB Common Stock to timely deliver a written demand for appraisal or the taking of any other action by any such holder as may be necessary to perfect appraisal rights under the Subchapter XI, or agree to do any of the foregoing.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF CFB

Except as disclosed in the disclosure schedule delivered by CFB to BYFC concurrently herewith (the “CFB Disclosure Schedule”); provided, that (a) no such item is required to be set forth as an exception to a representation or warranty if its absence would not result in the related representation or warranty being deemed untrue or incorrect, (b) the mere inclusion of an item in the CFB Disclosure Schedule as an exception to a representation or warranty shall not be deemed an admission by CFB that such item represents a material exception or fact, event or circumstance or that such item would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (c) any disclosures made with respect to a section of this Article III shall be deemed to qualify (i) any other section of this Article III specifically referenced or cross-referenced and (ii) other sections of this Article III to the extent it is reasonably apparent on its face (notwithstanding the absence of a specific cross reference) from a reading of the disclosure that such disclosure applies to such other sections, CFB hereby represents and warrants to BYFC as follows:

3.1 Corporate Organization.

(a) CFB is a benefit corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the District of Columbia and is a bank holding company duly registered as such under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHC Act”). CFB has the corporate power and authority to own, lease or operate all of its assets and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted. CFB is duly licensed or qualified to do business and in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted by it or the character or location of the assets owned, leased or operated by it makes such licensing, qualification or standing necessary, except where the failure to be so licensed or qualified or to be in good standing would not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on CFB. As used in this Agreement, the term “Material Adverse Effect” means, with respect to CFB, BYFC or the Surviving Entity, as the case may be, any effect, change, event, fact, circumstance, condition, occurrence or development that, either individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on (i) the business, assets, liabilities, results of operations or financial condition of such party and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole (provided, however, that, with respect to this clause (i), Material Adverse Effect shall not be deemed to include the impact of (A) changes, after the date hereof, in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) or applicable regulatory accounting requirements, (B) changes, after the date hereof, in laws, rules or regulations of general applicability to companies in the industries in which such party and its Subsidiaries operate, or interpretations thereof by courts or Governmental Entities, (C) changes, after the date hereof, in global, national or regional political conditions (including the outbreak of war, acts of terrorism, civil unrest, natural disasters and any epidemic, pandemic or disease outbreak (including the COVID-19 virus)) or in economic or market (including equity, credit and debt markets, as well as changes in interest rates) conditions affecting the financial services industry generally and not specifically relating to such party or its Subsidiaries, (D) public disclosure of the transactions contemplated hereby or actions or omissions expressly required by this Agreement or that are taken with the prior written consent of the other party in contemplation of the transactions contemplated hereby, or (E) a decline in the trading price of a party’s common stock or the failure, in and of itself, to meet earnings projections or internal financial forecasts, but not, in either case, including any underlying causes thereof; except, with respect to subclause (A), (B), or (C), to the extent that the effects of such change are materially disproportionately adverse to the business, assets, liabilities, results of operations or financial condition of such party and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, as compared to other companies in the industry in which such party and its Subsidiaries operate) or (ii) the ability of such party to timely consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. True and complete copies of the articles of incorporation of CFB (the “CFB Articles”) and the bylaws of CFB (the “CFB Bylaws”), in each case as in effect as of the date of this Agreement, have previously been made available by CFB to BYFC.

(b) Each Subsidiary of CFB (a “CFB Subsidiary”) (i) is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, (ii) is duly licensed or qualified to do business and, where such concept is recognized under applicable law, in good standing in all jurisdictions (whether federal, state, local or foreign) where its ownership, leasing or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires it to be so licensed or qualified or in good standing and in which the failure to be so licensed or qualified or in good standing would

reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on CFB, and (iii) has all requisite corporate power and authority to own, lease or operate its assets and to carry on its business as now conducted. As used in this Agreement, the word “Subsidiary” when used with respect to any person, means any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, bank or other organization, whether incorporated or unincorporated, or person of which (x) such first person directly or indirectly owns or controls at least a majority of the securities or other interests having by their terms ordinary voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors or others performing similar functions or (y) such first person is, or directly or indirectly has the power to appoint, a general partner, manager or managing member or others performing similar functions. There are no restrictions on the ability of any Subsidiary of CFB to pay dividends or distributions except, in the case of the CFB Subsidiary Bank, for restrictions on dividends or distributions generally applicable to all similarly regulated entities (including under state law applicable to such Subsidiary). The deposit accounts of CFB Subsidiary Bank are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) through the Deposit Insurance Fund (as defined in Section 3(y) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act of 1950), all premiums and assessments required to be paid in connection therewith have been paid when due, and no proceedings for the termination of such insurance are pending or threatened. Section 3.1(b) of the CFB Disclosure Schedule sets forth a true and complete list of all Subsidiaries of CFB as of the date hereof. No Subsidiary of CFB is in material violation of any of the provisions of the articles or certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or comparable organizational documents) of such Subsidiary of CFB. There is no person whose results of operations, cash flows, changes in shareholders’ equity or financial position are consolidated in the financial statements of CFB other than the CFB Subsidiaries.

3.13 Employees.

(a) Section 3.13(a) of the CFB Disclosure Schedule sets forth a true and complete list of all material CFB Benefit Plans. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “CFB Benefit Plans” means all employee benefit plans (as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”)), whether or not subject to ERISA, and all equity, bonus or incentive, deferred compensation, retiree medical or life insurance, supplemental retirement, severance, termination, change in control, retention, employment or other benefit plans, programs, agreements, contracts, policies or arrangements with respect to which CFB or any Subsidiary or any trade or business of CFB or any of its Subsidiaries, whether or not incorporated, all of which together with CFB would be deemed a “single employer” within the meaning of Sections 414(b), (c) or (m) of the Code (a “CFB ERISA Affiliate”), is a party or has any current or future obligation or that are maintained, contributed to or sponsored by CFB or any of its Subsidiaries or any CFB ERISA Affiliate for the benefit of any current or former employee, officer, director or independent contractor of CFB or any of its Subsidiaries or any CFB ERISA Affiliate; provided, however, that CFB shall not be required to list at-will offer letters on CFB’s standard form that do not provide severance, change in control benefits or other non-standard benefits.

(c) Each CFB Benefit Plan has been established, operated and administered in all material respects in accordance with its terms and the requirements of all applicable laws, including ERISA and the Code. Neither CFB nor any of its Subsidiaries has taken any action to take corrective action or make a filing under any voluntary correction program of the IRS, DOL

or any other Governmental Entity with respect to any CFB Benefit Plan, and neither CFB nor any of its Subsidiaries has any Knowledge of any plan defect that would qualify for correction under any such program.

(d) The IRS has issued a favorable determination letter with respect to each CFB Benefit Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code (the “CFB Qualified Plans”) and the related trust, which letter has not been revoked (nor has revocation been threatened), or such CFB Qualified Plans are maintained pursuant to a volume submitter or prototype document for which they may properly rely on the applicable opinion or advisory letter, and, to the Knowledge of CFB, there are no existing circumstances and no events have occurred that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the qualified status of any CFB Qualified Plan or the related trust. No trust funding any CFB Benefit Plan is intended to meet the requirements of Section 501(c)(9) of the Code. All assets of any CFB Benefit Plan that is a retirement or deferred compensation plan consist of cash, actively traded securities, or other assets reasonably acceptable to BYFC.

(e) None of CFB and its Subsidiaries nor any CFB ERISA Affiliate has, at any time during the last six years, contributed to or been obligated to contribute to, or had any liability with respect to, a “multiemployer plan” within the meaning of Section 4001(a)(3) of ERISA (a “Multiemployer Plan”), a CFB Benefit Plan subject to Title IV of ERISA or Sections 412 or 430 of the Code or a plan that has two or more contributing sponsors at least two of whom are not under common control, within the meaning of Section 4063 of ERISA (a “Multiple Employer Plan”), and none of CFB and its Subsidiaries nor any CFB ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability to a Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan as a result of a complete or partial withdrawal (as those terms are defined in Part I of Subtitle E of Title IV of ERISA) from a Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan.

(f) Neither CFB nor any of its Subsidiaries sponsors, has sponsored or has any obligation with respect to any employee benefit plan that provides for, or otherwise has any obligation to provide, any post-employment or post-retirement health or medical or life insurance benefits for retired, former or current employees or beneficiaries or dependents thereof, except as required by Section 4980B of the Code or similar applicable state or local law.

(g) Except as would not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on CFB, all contributions required to be made to any CFB Benefit Plan by applicable law or by any plan document or other contractual undertaking, and all premiums due or payable with respect to insurance policies funding any CFB Benefit Plan, for any period through the date hereof, have been timely made or paid in full or, to the extent not required to be made or paid on or before the date hereof, have been fully reflected on the books and records of CFB.

(h) There are no pending or threatened claims (other than claims for benefits in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice), lawsuits or arbitrations which have been asserted or instituted, and, to CFB’s Knowledge, no set of circumstances exists which may reasonably give rise to a claim or lawsuit, against the CFB Benefit Plans, any fiduciaries thereof with respect to their duties to the CFB Benefit Plans or the assets of any of the trusts under any of the CFB Benefit Plans.

(i) To CFB’s Knowledge, none of CFB, its Subsidiaries or any other person, including any fiduciary, has engaged in any “prohibited transaction” (as defined in Section 4975 of the Code or Section 406 of ERISA) which would reasonably be expected to subject any of the CFB Benefit Plans or their related trusts, CFB, any of its Subsidiaries, or any person that CFB or any of its Subsidiaries has an obligation to indemnify, to any material Tax or penalty imposed under Section 4975 of the Code or Section 502 of ERISA.

(j) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will (either alone or in conjunction with any other event) result in, cause the vesting, exercisability or delivery of, or increase in the amount or value of, any payment, right or other benefit to any employee, officer, director or other service provider of CFB or any of its Subsidiaries, or result in any limitation on the right of CFB or any of its Subsidiaries to amend, merge, terminate or receive a reversion of assets from any CFB Benefit Plan or related trust. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no amount paid or payable (whether in cash, in property, or in the form of benefits) by CFB or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (either solely as a result thereof or as a result of such transactions in conjunction with any other event) will subject any person to liability for tax under Section 4999 of the Code or cause the loss of a deduction to CFB under Section 280G of the Code.

(k) The transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not cause or require CFB or any of its Affiliates to establish or make any contribution to a rabbi trust or similar funding vehicle.

(l) No CFB Benefit Plan provides for the gross-up or reimbursement of Taxes under Section 409A or 4999 of the Code, or otherwise.

(b) The parties hereto shall cooperate with each other and use their reasonable best efforts to promptly (and in the case of the applications, notices, petitions and filings in respect of the Requisite Regulatory Approvals, within 45 days of the date of this Agreement) prepare and file all necessary documentation, to effect all applications, notices, petitions and filings, to obtain as promptly as practicable all permits, consents, orders, approvals, waivers, non-objections and authorizations of all third parties and Governmental Entities which are necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Merger and the Bank Merger), and to comply with the terms and conditions of all such permits, consents, orders, approvals, waivers, non-objections and authorizations of all such Governmental Entities. BYFC and CFB shall have the right to review in advance, and, to the extent practicable, each will consult the other on, in each case subject to applicable laws relating to the exchange of information, all the information relating to CFB or BYFC, as the case may be, and any of their respective Subsidiaries, which appears in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party or any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In exercising the foregoing right, each of the parties hereto shall act reasonably and as promptly as practicable. The parties hereto agree that they will consult with each other with respect to the obtaining of all permits, consents, orders, approvals, waivers, non-objections and authorizations of all third parties and Governmental Entities necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and each party will keep the other apprised of the status of matters relating to completion of the transactions contemplated herein, and, except for non-material communications between counsel and a Governmental Entity relating to the regulatory approval process or status, each party shall consult with the other in advance of any meeting or conference with any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Entity, give the other party and/or its counsel the opportunity to attend and participate in such meetings and conferences, in each case subject to applicable law.

(c) Each party shall use its reasonable best efforts to resolve any objection that may be asserted by any Governmental Entity with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require BYFC or CFB or any of their respective Subsidiaries, and neither BYFC nor CFB nor any of their respective Subsidiaries shall be permitted (without the written consent of the other party), to take any action, or commit to take any action, or agree to any condition, commitment or restriction, in connection with obtaining the foregoing permits, consents, orders, approvals, waivers, non-objections and authorizations of Governmental Entities that would reasonably be expected to be materially financially burdensome to the business, operations, financial condition or results of operations on the business of BYFC and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), or on the business of CFB and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) (which restriction,

commitment, or condition could include materially increasing capital, divesting or reducing lines of businesses or asset classes, entering into compliance or remediation programs, and making material lending or investment commitments) (a “Materially Burdensome Regulatory Condition”).

(d) BYFC and CFB shall, upon request, furnish each other with all information concerning themselves, their Subsidiaries, directors, officers and stockholders and such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with the Joint Proxy Statement, the S-4 or any other statement, filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of BYFC, CFB or any of their respective Subsidiaries to any Governmental Entity in connection with the Merger, the Bank Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. If a stockholder of either of the parties hereto is required to file a notice or application with a Governmental Entity in connection with the Merger, such party may share information concerning the other party hereto and the Merger with such stockholder to the extent necessary to facilitate such filing.

(e) BYFC and CFB shall, subject to applicable law, promptly advise each other upon receiving any communication relating to the regulatory approval process, including by providing the content of such communication, from any Governmental Entity whose consent or approval is required for consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(f) BYFC and CFB intend to cause the Surviving Entity to take reasonable actions to cause the Surviving Bank to maintain its status as a CDFI certified by the United States Treasury Department and as an MDI designated by the FDIC.

6.2 Access to Information; Confidentiality.

(a) Upon reasonable notice and subject to applicable laws, each of BYFC and CFB shall, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to, afford to the officers, employees, accountants, counsel, advisors and other Representatives of the other party, access, during normal business hours during the period prior to the Effective Time, to all its assets, books, contracts, commitments, personnel, information technology systems, and records; provided, that such investigation or requests shall not interfere unnecessarily with normal operations of the party, and shall be subject to any reasonable restrictions imposed by either party with respect to in-person access in light of COVID-19 concerns, including the health and safety of such party’s employees; provided, further that the parties use reasonable best efforts to allow for such access or disclosure in a manner that does not jeopardize such health and safety, and each shall cooperate with the other party in preparing to execute after the Effective Time the conversion or consolidation of systems and business operations generally, and, during such period, each of BYFC and CFB shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, make available to the other party (i) a copy of each report, schedule, registration statement and other document filed or received by it during such period pursuant to the requirements of federal securities laws or federal or state banking laws (other than reports or documents that BYFC or CFB, as the case may be, is not permitted to disclose under applicable law), and (ii) all other information concerning its business, assets and personnel as such party may reasonably request, including all information reasonably requested by CFB’s independent accountant for the purpose of analyzing the effect of the Merger on the availability of any net operating loss, capital loss, built-in loss,

Tax credits or other Tax attribute of BYFC or any of its Subsidiaries under Sections 269, 382, 383, 384 or 1502 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder or comparable provisions of state, local or foreign Tax Law. Neither BYFC nor CFB nor any of their respective Subsidiaries shall be required to provide access to or to disclose information where such access or disclosure would violate or prejudice the rights of BYFC’s or CFB’s, as the case may be, customers, jeopardize the attorney-client privilege of the institution in possession or control of such information (after giving due consideration to the existence of any common interest, joint defense or similar agreement between the parties) or contravene any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, decree, fiduciary duty or binding agreement entered into prior to the date of this Agreement. The parties hereto will make appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements under circumstances in which the restrictions of the preceding sentence apply.

(b) Each of BYFC and CFB shall hold, and, pursuant to Section 6.1(d), shall direct their respective stockholders to hold, all information furnished by or on behalf of the other party or any of such party’s Subsidiaries or Representatives pursuant to this Agreement in confidence to the extent required by, and in accordance with, the provisions of the confidentiality agreement, dated January 22, 2020, between BYFC and CFB (the “Confidentiality Agreement”).

(c) No investigation by either of the parties or their respective Representatives shall affect or be deemed to modify or waive the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the other set forth herein. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall give either party, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the operations of the other party prior to the Effective Time. Prior to the Effective Time, each party shall exercise, consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, complete control and supervision over its and its Subsidiaries’ respective operations.

6.3 Stockholders’ Approvals.

(a) Each of BYFC and CFB shall call, give notice of, establish a record date for, convene and hold a meeting of its stockholders (the “BYFC Meeting” and the “CFB Meeting,” respectively) to be held as soon as reasonably practicable after the S-4 is declared effective, for the purpose of obtaining (a) in the case of CFB, the Requisite CFB Votes, and in the case of BYFC, the Requisite BYFC Vote and the BYFC Benefit Corporation Vote and (b) if so desired and mutually agreed, a vote upon other matters of the type customarily brought before a meeting of stockholders in connection with the approval of a merger agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, and each of CFB and BYFC shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such meetings to occur as soon as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement and on the same date and at the same time, and to set the same record date for each such meeting. Each of BYFC and CFB and their respective Boards of Directors shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain from the stockholders of BYFC and CFB, as applicable, the Requisite BYFC Vote, the BYFC Benefit Corporation Vote and the Requisite CFB Votes, as applicable, including by communicating to the respective stockholders of BYFC and CFB its recommendation (and including such recommendation in the Joint Proxy Statement) that, in the case of BYFC, the stockholders of BYFC adopt and approve this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the BYFC Amended Certificate (the “BYFC Board Recommendation”), and, in the case of CFB, the stockholders of CFB adopt and approve this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (the “CFB Board Recommendation”).

(b) Each of BYFC and CFB and their respective Boards of Directors shall not (i) withhold, withdraw, modify or qualify in a manner adverse to the other party the BYFC Board Recommendation, in the case of BYFC, or the CFB Board Recommendation, in the case of CFB, (ii) fail to make the BYFC Board Recommendation, in the case of BYFC, or the CFB Board Recommendation, in the case of CFB, in the Joint Proxy Statement, or otherwise submit this Agreement to its stockholders without recommendation, (iii) adopt, approve, agree to, accept, recommend or endorse an Acquisition Proposal or publicly announce an intention to adopt, approve, recommend or endorse an Acquisition Proposal, (iv) fail to publicly and without qualification (A) recommend against any Acquisition Proposal or (B) reaffirm the BYFC Board Recommendation, in the case of BYFC, or the CFB Board Recommendation, in the case of CFB, in each case within ten Business Days (or such fewer number of days as remains prior to the BYFC Meeting or the CFB Meeting, as applicable) after an Acquisition Proposal is made public or any request by the other party to do so, (v) take any action, or make any public statement, filing or release inconsistent with the BYFC Board Recommendation, in the case of BYFC, or the CFB Board Recommendation, in the case of CFB or (vi) publicly propose to do any of the foregoing (any of the foregoing, a “Recommendation Change”).

(c) Subject to Section 8.1 and Section 8.2, if the Board of Directors of BYFC or CFB (i) receives a Superior Proposal (after giving effect to the terms of any revised offer by the other party pursuant to this Section 6.3), and (ii) after receiving the advice of its outside counsel and, with respect to financial matters, its financial advisors, determines in good faith that it would be reasonably likely to result in a violation of its fiduciary duties under applicable law to make or continue to make the BYFC Board Recommendation or the CFB Board Recommendation, as applicable, such Board of Directors may, in the case of BYFC, prior to the receipt of the Requisite BYFC Vote, and in the case of CFB, prior to the receipt of the Requisite CFB Votes, submit this Agreement to its stockholders without recommendation (although the resolutions approving this Agreement as of the date hereof may not be rescinded or amended), in which event such Board of Directors may communicate the basis for its lack of a recommendation to its stockholders in the Joint Proxy Statement or an appropriate amendment or supplement thereto to the extent required by law; provided, that such Board of Directors may not take any actions under this sentence unless it (A) has complied in all material respects with Section 6.12, (B) gives the other party at least three Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to take such action and a reasonable description of the event or circumstances giving rise to its determination to take such action (including, in the event such action is taken in response to a Superior Proposal, the latest material terms and conditions and the identity of the third party in any such Superior Proposal, or any amendment or modification thereof, or describe in reasonable detail such other event or circumstances, including the information under Section 6.12(b)) and (C) at the end of such notice period, takes into account any amendment or modification to this Agreement proposed by the other party and, after receiving the advice of its outside counsel and, with respect to financial matters, its financial advisors, determines in good faith that such Superior Proposal remains a Superior Proposal and it would nevertheless be reasonably likely to result in a violation of its fiduciary duties under applicable law to make or continue to make the BYFC Board Recommendation or CFB Board Recommendation, as the case may be. Any material amendment to any Acquisition Proposal will be deemed to be a new Acquisition Proposal for purposes of this Section 6.3 and will require a new notice period as referred to in this Section 6.3. BYFC or CFB shall adjourn or postpone the BYFC Meeting or the CFB Meeting, as the case may be, if, as of the time for which such meeting is originally

scheduled there are insufficient shares of BYFC Common Stock or CFB Common Stock, as the case may be, represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of such meeting, or if on the date of such meeting CFB or BYFC, as applicable, has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of shares necessary to obtain the Requisite CFB Votes or the Requisite BYFC Vote.

(d) As used in this Agreement, “Superior Proposal” means any unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal with respect to which the Board of Directors of BYFC or CFB determines in its good faith judgment (after receiving the advice of its outside legal counsel and, with respect to financial matters, its financial advisors) is reasonably likely to be consummated in accordance with its terms, and if consummated, would result in a transaction more favorable, from a financial point of view, to its respective stockholders than the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (as it may be proposed to be amended by the other party hereto), taking into account all relevant factors (including the Acquisition Proposal and this Agreement (including any proposed changes to this Agreement that may be proposed by the other party hereto in response to such Acquisition Proposal)); provided, that for purposes of the definition of “Superior Proposal,” the references to “25%” in the definition of Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be references to “50%.”

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, unless this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms, (x) the BYFC Meeting shall be convened and this Agreement shall be submitted to the stockholders of BYFC at the BYFC Meeting and (y) the CFB Meeting shall be convened and this Agreement shall be submitted to the stockholders of CFB at the CFB Meeting, and nothing contained herein shall be deemed to relieve either BYFC or CFB of such obligation.

(f) BYFC shall direct the BYFC ESOP trustee to vote the BYFC Common Stock held in the BYFC ESOP in accordance with the requirements of Section 409(e) of the Internal Revenue Code, the terms of the BYFC ESOP, and the ESOP trustee’s ERISA fiduciary duties.

6.4 Legal Conditions to Merger. Subject in all respects to Section 6.1 of this Agreement, each of BYFC and CFB shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use their reasonable best efforts (a) to take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary, proper or advisable to comply promptly with all legal requirements that may be imposed on such party or its Subsidiaries with respect to the Merger and the Bank Merger and, subject to the conditions set forth in Article VII hereof, to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (b) to obtain (and to cooperate with the other party to obtain) any material consent, authorization, order or approval of, or any exemption by, any Governmental Entity and any other third party that is required to be obtained by CFB or BYFC or any of their respective Subsidiaries in connection with the Merger, the Bank Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

6.5 Stock Exchange Listing. BYFC shall cause the shares of BYFC Voting Common Stock to be issued in the Merger to be approved for listing on Nasdaq, subject to official notice of issuance, prior to the Effective Time, and BYFC shall give all notices and make all filings with Nasdaq required in connection with the transactions contemplated herein.

6.6 Employee Benefit Plans.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, unless otherwise mutually agreed, the CFB Benefit Plans and BYFC Benefit Plans in effect as of the date of this Agreement (other than such benefit plans as may be mutually agreed) shall remain in effect with respect to employees of CFB and BYFC (and their respective Subsidiaries), respectively, covered by such plans at the Effective Time who continue to be employed by the Surviving Entity or its Subsidiaries after the Effective Time until such time as the Surviving Entity shall, subject to applicable law, and the terms of such plans, modify any existing plans or adopt new benefit plans with respect to employees of the Surviving Entity and its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “New Benefit Plans”). Prior to the Closing Date, CFB and BYFC shall cooperate in reviewing, evaluating and analyzing the BYFC Benefit Plans and CFB Benefit Plans with a view towards developing appropriate New Benefit Plans for the employees covered thereby to be submitted for consideration and approval by the board of directors of the Surviving Entity after the Closing Date. It is the intention of CFB and BYFC, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to develop New Benefit Plans (including amending existing plans), as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, which, among other things, (i) treat similarly situated employees on a substantially equivalent basis, taking into account all relevant factors, including duties, geographic location, tenure, qualifications and abilities, (ii) do not discriminate between employees who were covered by BYFC Benefit Plans, on the one hand, and those covered by CFB Benefit Plans on the other hand, at the Effective Time, (iii) do not materially reduce the aggregate amount of benefits provided to CFB or BYFC employees, provided such benefit amounts are customary in the market, (iv) honor and preserve all contractual or vested benefits, and (v) with respect to health benefits, to the extent commercially practicable, waives any preexisting condition disallowances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, BYFC and CFB agree that, during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the first anniversary thereof, any continuing employee of BYFC, CFB or any of their respective Subsidiaries who is involuntarily terminated other than for cause by the Surviving Entity or any of its Subsidiaries, as applicable during such one-year period will be provided with severance, as described in Section 6.6(a) of the BYFC Disclosure Schedule. For purposes of this Section 6.6(a), “cause” shall mean termination because of an employee’s material personal dishonesty in the course and scope of his or her employment, willful misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit, intentional failure to perform stated duties or willful violation of any law, rule or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar violations).

(b) Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon any employee, officer, director or consultant of BYFC or CFB or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates any right to continue in the employ or service of the Surviving Entity, CFB, BYFC or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Surviving Entity, CFB, BYFC or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof to discharge or terminate the services of any employee, officer, director or consultant of BYFC or CFB or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to (i) establish, amend, or modify any CFB Benefit Plan, BYFC Benefit Plan, New Benefit Plan or any other benefit or employment plan, program, agreement or arrangement, or (ii) alter or limit the ability of the Surviving Entity or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any particular CFB Benefit Plan, BYFC Benefit Plan, New Benefit Plan or any other benefit or employment plan, program, agreement or arrangement

after the Effective Time. Without limiting the generality of Section 9.11, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any person, including any current or former employee, officer, director or consultant of BYFC or CFB or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates, any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such BYFC Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification.

(c) For a period of six years after the Effective Time, the Surviving Entity shall cause to be maintained in effect the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by CFB (provided, that the Surviving Entity may substitute therefor policies with a substantially comparable insurer of at least the same coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions that are no less advantageous to the insured) with respect to claims arising from facts or events which occurred at or before the Effective Time. In lieu of the foregoing, BYFC or CFB, in consultation with the other party, may obtain at or prior to the Effective Time a six-year “tail” policy under CFB’s existing directors’ and officers’ insurance policy providing equivalent coverage to that described in the preceding sentence.

(d) For a period of six years after the Effective Time, the Surviving Entity shall cause to be maintained in effect the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by BYFC (provided, that the Surviving Entity may substitute therefor policies with a substantially comparable insurer of at least the same coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions that are no less advantageous to the insured) with respect to claims arising from facts or events which occurred at or before the Effective Time. In lieu of the foregoing, BYFC or CFB, in consultation with the other party, may obtain at or prior to the Effective Time a six-year “tail” policy under BYFC’s existing directors’ and officers’ insurance policy providing equivalent coverage to that described in the preceding sentence.

(e) The provisions of this Section 6.7 shall survive the Effective Time and are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each CFB Indemnified Party, each BYFC Indemnified Party, and each of his or her respective heirs and representatives. If the Surviving Entity or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other person and is not the continuing or surviving entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its assets or deposits to any other person or engages in any similar transaction, then in each such case, the Surviving Entity will cause proper provision to be made so that the successors and assigns of the Surviving Entity will expressly assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.7.

6.8 Additional Agreements. In case at any time after the Effective Time any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement (including any merger between a Subsidiary of BYFC, on the one hand, and a Subsidiary of CFB, on the other hand) or to vest the Surviving Entity with full title to all assets, rights, approvals, immunities and franchises of any of the parties to the Merger or the Bank Merger, the proper officers and directors of each party to this Agreement and their respective Subsidiaries shall take all such necessary action as may be reasonably requested by BYFC.

6.9 Advice of Changes. BYFC and CFB shall each promptly advise the other party of any effect, change, event, circumstance, condition, occurrence or development (i) that has had or would reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on it or (ii) that it believes would or would reasonably be expected to cause or constitute a material breach of any of its representations, warranties, obligations, covenants or agreements contained herein that reasonably could be expected to give rise,

individually or in the aggregate, to the failure of a condition in Article VII; provided, that any failure to give notice in accordance with the foregoing with respect to any breach shall not be deemed to constitute a violation of this Section 6.9 or the failure of any condition set forth in Section 7.2 or 7.3 to be satisfied, or otherwise constitute a breach of this Agreement by the party failing to give such notice, in each case unless the underlying breach would independently result in a failure of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2 or 7.3 to be satisfied; and provided, further, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 6.9 shall not cure any breach of, or noncompliance with, any other provision of this Agreement or limit the remedies available to the party receiving such notice.

6.10 Stockholder Litigation. Each party shall give the other party prompt notice of any stockholder litigation against such party or its directors or officers relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and shall give the other party the opportunity to participate (at such other’s party’s expense) in the defense or settlement of any such litigation. Each party shall give the other the right to review and comment on all filings or responses to be made by such party in connection with any such litigation, and will in good faith take such comments into account. No party shall agree to settle any such litigation without the other party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, that the other party shall not be obligated to consent to any settlement which does not include a full release of such other party and its Affiliates or which imposes an injunction or other equitable relief after the Effective Time upon the Surviving Entity or any of its Affiliates.

6.12 Acquisition Proposals.

(a) Each party hereto agrees that it will not, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (collectively, “Representatives”) not to, directly or indirectly, (i) initiate, solicit, induce, encourage or facilitate any inquiries or proposals with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) engage or participate in any negotiations with any person concerning any Acquisition Proposal, (iii) provide any confidential or nonpublic information or data to, have or participate in any discussions with any person relating to any Acquisition Proposal or (iv) unless this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms, approve, recommend the approval of or enter into any term sheet, letter of intent, commitment, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement or other agreement (whether written or oral, binding or nonbinding) (other than a confidentiality agreement referred to and entered into in accordance with this Section 6.12) in connection with or relating to any Acquisition Proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that after the date of this Agreement and prior to the receipt of the Requisite BYFC Vote, in the case of BYFC, or the Requisite CFB Votes, in the case of CFB, a party receives an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that did not result from or arise in connection with a breach of this Section 6.12(a), such party may prior to such meeting, but not after, and may permit its Subsidiaries and its and its Subsidiaries’ Representatives to, furnish or cause to be furnished confidential or nonpublic information or data (but only if such party shall have provided such information to the other party hereto prior to furnishing it to any such person) and participate in such negotiations or discussions with the person making the Acquisition Proposal if the Board of Directors of such party concludes in good faith (after receiving the advice of its outside counsel and, with respect to financial matters, its financial advisors) that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal and that the failure to

take such actions would be reasonably likely to result in a violation of its fiduciary duties under applicable law; provided, that, prior to furnishing any confidential or nonpublic information permitted to be provided pursuant to this sentence, such party shall have entered into a confidentiality agreement with the person making such Acquisition Proposal on terms no less favorable to such party than the Confidentiality Agreement is to BYFC and CFB, which confidentiality agreement shall not provide such person with any exclusive right to negotiate with such party. Each party will, and will cause its Representatives to, (i) immediately cease and cause to be terminated any activities, discussions or negotiations conducted before the date of this Agreement with any person other than CFB or BYFC, as applicable, with respect to any offer or proposal that constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, and (ii) request the prompt return or destruction of all confidential information previously furnished to any person (other than the parties hereto and its Representatives) that has made or indicated an intention to make an Acquisition Proposal.

(b) Each party will promptly (within 24 hours) advise the other party following receipt of any Acquisition Proposal or any request for nonpublic information or any inquiry which could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, and the substance thereof (including the terms and conditions of and the identity of the person making such inquiry or Acquisition Proposal), will provide the other party with an unredacted copy of any such Acquisition Proposal and any draft agreements, proposals or other materials received in connection with any such inquiry or Acquisition Proposal (or a written summary of the material terms of such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry, if oral), and will keep the other party apprised of any related developments, discussions and negotiations on a current basis, including any amendments to or revisions of the terms of such inquiry or Acquisition Proposal. Each party shall use its reasonable best efforts to enforce any existing confidentiality or standstill agreements to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is a party in accordance with the terms thereof.

(c) As used in this Agreement, “Acquisition Proposal” shall mean, with respect to BYFC or CFB, as applicable, other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any offer, proposal or inquiry relating to, or any third-party indication of interest in, (i) any acquisition or purchase, direct or indirect, of 25% or more of the consolidated assets of a party and its Subsidiaries or 25% or more of any class of equity or voting securities of a party or its Subsidiaries whose assets, individually or in the aggregate, constitute more 25% or more of the consolidated assets of the party, (ii) any tender offer (including a self-tender offer) or exchange offer that, if consummated, would result in such third party beneficially owning 25% or more of any class of equity or voting securities of a party or its Subsidiaries whose assets, individually or in the aggregate, constitute 25% or more of the consolidated assets of the party, or (iii) a merger, consolidation, share exchange, business combination, reorganization, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or other similar transaction involving a party or its Subsidiaries whose assets, individually or in the aggregate, constitute 25% or more of the consolidated assets of the party.

(d) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent a party or its Board of Directors from complying with Rule 14d-9 and Rule 14e-2 under the Exchange Act with respect to an Acquisition Proposal; provided, that such rules will in no way eliminate or modify the effect that any action pursuant to such rules would otherwise have under this Agreement.

6.13 Public Announcements. CFB and BYFC agree that the initial press release with respect to the execution and delivery of this Agreement shall be a release mutually agreed to by the parties. Thereafter, each of the parties agrees that no public release or announcement or statement concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be issued by any party without the prior written consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except (i) as required by applicable law or the rules or regulations of any applicable Governmental Entity or stock exchange to which the relevant party is subject, in which case the party required to make the release or announcement shall consult with the other party about, and allow the other party reasonable time to comment on, such release or announcement in advance of such issuance or (ii) for such releases, announcements or statements that are consistent with other such releases, announcement or statements made after the date of this Agreement in compliance with this Section 6.13.

6.14 Change of Method. CFB and BYFC shall be empowered, upon their mutual agreement, at any time prior to the Effective Time, to change the method or structure of effecting the combination of CFB and BYFC (including the provisions of Article I), if and to the extent they both deem such change to be necessary, appropriate or desirable; provided, that unless this Agreement is amended by agreement of each party in accordance with Section 9.1, no such change shall (i) alter or change the amount or kind of Merger Consideration provided for in this Agreement, (ii) adversely affect the Tax treatment of the Merger with respect to CFB’s shareholders, (iii) adversely affect the Tax treatment of CFB or BYFC pursuant to this Agreement or (iv) materially impede or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in a timely manner. The parties agree to reflect any such change in an appropriate amendment to this Agreement executed by both parties in accordance with Section 9.1.

6.15 Tax Treatment.

(a) Each of the parties shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Merger, and shall not take any action that would cause the Merger not, to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code for federal income tax purposes. The parties adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-2(g) and for purposes of Sections 354, 361 and 368 of the Code.

(b) Each of the parties shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause their appropriate officers to execute and deliver to Xxxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP and Xxxxxx & Xxxxxx Xxxx Xxxxxxx LLP certificates containing appropriate representations and covenants, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to such counsel, at such time or times as may be reasonably requested by such counsel, including as of the effective date of the Joint Proxy Statement and the Closing Date, in connection with such counsel’s deliveries of opinions with respect to the Tax treatment of the Merger.

(c) Unless otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code, each of BYFC and CFB and their Affiliates shall report the Merger as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and shall not take any inconsistent position therewith in any Tax Return.

6.16 Restructuring Efforts. If either CFB or BYFC shall have failed to obtain the Requisite CFB Votes or the Requisite BYFC Vote at the duly convened CFB Meeting or BYFC Meeting, as applicable, or any adjournment or postponement thereof, each of the parties shall in good faith use its reasonable best efforts to negotiate a restructuring of the transactions provided for herein (it being understood that neither party shall have any obligation to alter or change any material terms, including the amount or kind of the consideration to be issued to holders of the capital stock of CFB as provided for in this Agreement, in a manner adverse to such party or its stockholders) and/or resubmit this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (or as restructured pursuant to this Section 6.16) to its stockholders for approval.

6.17 Takeover Statutes. None of CFB, BYFC or their respective Boards of Directors shall take any action that would cause any Takeover Statute to become applicable to this Agreement, the Merger, or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby, and each shall take all necessary steps to exempt (or ensure the continued exemption of) the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby from any applicable Takeover Statute now or hereafter in effect. If any Takeover Statute may become, or may purport to be, applicable to the transactions contemplated hereby, each party and the members of their respective Boards of Directors will grant such approvals and take such actions as are necessary so that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize the effects of any Takeover Statute on any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, if necessary, challenging the validity or applicability of any such Takeover Statute.

ARTICLE VIII

TERMINATION AND AMENDMENT

8.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Effective Time, whether before or after receipt of the Requisite CFB Votes or the Requisite BYFC Vote:

(a) by mutual written consent of BYFC and CFB;

(b) by either BYFC or CFB if any Governmental Entity that must grant a Requisite Regulatory Approval has denied approval of the Merger or the Bank Merger or any Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction shall have issued a final and nonappealable order, injunction, decree or other legal restraint or prohibition permanently enjoining or otherwise prohibiting or making illegal the consummation of the Merger or the Bank Merger, unless the failure to obtain a Requisite Regulatory Approval shall be due to the failure of the party seeking to terminate this Agreement to perform or observe the obligations, covenants and agreements of such party set forth herein;

(c) by either BYFC or CFB if the Merger shall not have been consummated on or before the date that is one year after the date of this Agreement (the “Termination Date”), unless the failure of the Closing to occur by such date shall be due to the failure of the party seeking to terminate this Agreement to perform or observe the obligations, covenants and agreements of such party set forth herein;

(d) by either BYFC or CFB (provided, that the terminating party is not then in material breach of any representation, warranty, obligation, covenant or other agreement contained herein) if there shall have been a breach of any of the obligations, covenants or agreements or any of the representations or warranties (or any such representation or warranty shall cease to be true) set forth in this Agreement on the part of CFB, in the case of a termination by BYFC, or BYFC, in the case of a termination by CFB, which breach or failure to be true, either individually or in the aggregate with all other breaches by such party (or failures of such

representations or warranties to be true), would constitute, if occurring or continuing on the Closing Date, the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.2, in the case of a termination by BYFC, or Section 7.3, in the case of a termination by CFB, and which is not cured within 45 days following written notice to CFB, in the case of a termination by BYFC, or BYFC, in the case of a termination by CFB, or by its nature or timing cannot be cured during such period (or such fewer days as remain prior to the Termination Date);

(e) by CFB, if (i) BYFC or the Board of Directors of BYFC shall have made a Recommendation Change or (ii) BYFC or the Board of Directors of BYFC shall have breached its obligations under Section 6.3 or 6.12 in any material respect; or

(b) (i) In the event that after the date of this Agreement and prior to the termination of this Agreement, a bona fide Acquisition Proposal shall have been communicated to or otherwise made known to the Board of Directors or senior management of CFB or shall have been made directly to the shareholders of CFB or any person shall have publicly announced (and not withdrawn at least two Business Days prior to the CFB Meeting) an Acquisition Proposal, in each case with respect to CFB and (A) (x) thereafter this Agreement is terminated by either BYFC or CFB pursuant to Section 8.1(c) without the Requisite CFB Votes having been obtained (and all other conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.3 were satisfied or were capable of being satisfied prior to such termination) or (y) thereafter this Agreement is terminated by BYFC pursuant to Section 8.1(d) as a result of a willful breach, and (B) prior to the date that is 12 months after the date of such termination, CFB enters into a definitive agreement or consummates a transaction with respect to an Acquisition Proposal (whether or not the same Acquisition Proposal as that referred to above), then CFB shall, on the earlier of the date it enters into such definitive agreement and the date of consummation of such transaction, pay BYFC, by wire transfer of same-day funds, a fee equal to $1,750,000 (the “Termination Fee”); provided, that for purposes of this Section 8.2(b)(i), all references in the definition of Acquisition Proposal to “25%” shall instead refer to “50%.”

(ii) In the event that this Agreement is terminated by BYFC pursuant to Section 8.1(f), then CFB shall pay BYFC, by wire transfer of same-day funds, the Termination Fee within two Business Days of the date of termination.

(c) (i) In the event that after the date of this Agreement and prior to the termination of this Agreement, a bona fide Acquisition Proposal shall have been communicated to or otherwise made known to the Board of Directors or senior management of BYFC or shall have been made directly to the stockholders of BYFC or any person shall have publicly announced (and not withdrawn at least two Business Days prior to the BYFC Meeting) an Acquisition Proposal, in each case with respect to BYFC and (A) (x) thereafter this Agreement is terminated by either BYFC or CFB pursuant to Section 8.1(c) without the Requisite BYFC Vote having been obtained (and all other conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 were satisfied or were capable of being satisfied prior to such termination) or (y) thereafter this Agreement is terminated by CFB pursuant to Section 8.1(d) as a result of a willful breach, and (B) prior to the date that is 12 months after the date of such termination, BYFC enters into a definitive agreement or consummates a transaction with respect to an Acquisition Proposal (whether or not the same Acquisition Proposal as that referred to above), then BYFC shall, on the earlier of the date it enters into such definitive agreement and the date of consummation of such transaction, pay CFB the Termination Fee by wire transfer of same-day funds; provided, that for purposes of this Section 8.2(c)(i), all references in the definition of Acquisition Proposal to “25%” shall instead refer to “50%.”

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, but without limiting the right of any party to recover liabilities or damages to the extent permitted herein, in no event shall either party be required to pay the Termination Fee more than once.

(e) Each of BYFC and CFB acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 8.2 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, the other party would not enter into this Agreement; accordingly, if BYFC or CFB, as the case may be, fails promptly to pay the amount due pursuant to this Section 8.2, and, in order to obtain such payment, the other party commences a suit which results in a judgment against the non-paying party for the Termination Fee or any portion thereof, such non-paying party shall pay the costs and expenses of the other party (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such suit. In addition, if BYFC or CFB, as the case may be, fails to pay the amounts payable pursuant to this Section 8.2, then such party shall pay interest on such overdue amounts at a rate per annum equal to the “prime rate” published in the Wall Street Journal on the date on which such payment was required to be made for the period commencing as of the date that such overdue amount was originally required to be paid and ending on the date that such overdue amount is actually paid in full.

AMENDED AND RESTATED

CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION

[BROADWAY FINANCIAL CORPORATION, PBC](1)

a public benefit corporation

FIRST: The name of this corporation is [“Broadway Financial Corporation, PBC”].

SECOND: The name and address of this corporation’s registered agent and registered office in the State of Delaware are Corporation Service Company, 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000-0000.

THIRD: The purpose of this corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. Without limitation of the foregoing, this corporation is a public benefit corporation, as provided for in Subchapter XV of the Delaware General Corporation Law, that is intended to promote the following public benefits: [increase access to credit and capital for individuals and institutions located in low-income and moderate-income neighborhoods of the District of Columbia, Los Angeles, California and other communities served by this corporation and its bank and other subsidies that improve the economic health of such communities in ways that are efficient and profitable](2). Any disinterested failure of a director to satisfy the requirements of Section 365 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (relating to the duties of directors) shall not constitute an act or omission not in good faith, or a breach of the duty of loyalty.

FOURTH: A. The total number of shares of all classes of stock which this corporation shall have authority to issue is ninety-one million (91,000,000), of which: fifty million (50,000,000) shall be Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share; fifteen million (15,000,000) shall be Class B Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share; twenty-five million (25,000,0000) shall be Class C Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share; and one million (1,000,000) shall be serial preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share.

B.1. Except as set forth in the remainder of this Article FOURTH, Paragraph B., the Class A Common Stock, the Class B Common Stock and the Class C Common Stock shall all have the same rights and other attributes, including without limitation the right to share ratably with the shares of each of the other class of common stock, based on the respective numbers of each such class, any dividends and any distributions on liquidation declared and paid on common stock.

(1) Insert name to be decided on by the parties.

(2) Enumerated public benefits to be modified as agreed by the parties.

2. The shares of Class A Common Stock shall entitle the holders thereof to one vote per share of Class A Common Stock held of record on all matters. The shares of Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock constitute non-voting shares of the corporation and the holders thereof are not entitled to vote on any matter other than as required by law.

3. The Class C Common Stock was first authorized by the amendment of the Certificate of Incorporation of this corporation filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on October 13, 2014 and was referred to in such amendment as “non-voting common stock, par value $0.01 per share”. Each share of Class C Common Stock shall convert, automatically and without any action by any person, into one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock having full voting rights upon any transfer of such share to any person other than the Initial Holder or any Affiliate of such Initial Holder pursuant to clause (iii), (v) or (v) of the following sentence. The shares of Class C Common Stock are not convertible into common stock having full voting rights by the Initial Holder or any Affiliate of such Initial Holder and may only be transferred by the Initial Holder or such Affiliate (1) to an Affiliate of such Initial Holder, (ii) to the corporation, (iii) in a widespread public distribution, (iv) in a transfer in which no transferee (or group of associated transferees) would receive 2% or more of any class of voting securities of the corporation, or (v) to a transferee that would control more than 50% of the voting securities of the corporation without any transfer from the Initial Holder or any Affiliate of such Initial Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the corporation may restrict such conversion to the extent it would be inconsistent with, or in violation of, the requirements of any Regulator with respect to the restrictions on the transfer of the non-voting common stock that are required in order to preserve the “non-voting” classification of the non-voting common stock for regulatory purposes. Any such restriction shall be imposed and deemed effective immediately upon the transmittal by the corporation of written notice to such holder specifying in reasonable detail the reason for such restriction; and in the event such notice is transmitted after the event giving rise to such automatic conversion, the restriction shall be deemed to have been imposed and effective retroactively to the time of such event, and such conversion shall be deemed not to have occurred, so long as such notice is transmitted within one hundred eighty (180) days after the event giving rise to such conversion. Such notice may be dispatched by first class mail, by electronic transmission, or by any other means reasonably designed and in good faith intended to provide prompt delivery to an executive officer (or equivalent) of, or legal counsel to, such holder.

4. As used herein with respect to the Class C Common Stock, the term “Initial Holder” shall mean any holder of the non-voting common stock who acquired such stock through conversion of one or more shares of the formerly outstanding shares of Series G Non-Voting Preferred Stock issued by the corporation in accordance with the conversion provisions of the Certificate of Designations for such Series G Non-Voting Preferred Stock of the corporation, as in effect from time to time, or if cancelled, as in effect immediately prior to such cancellation (the “Series G Certificate of Designations”), or on original issue by the corporation in an exchange for common stock having full voting rights that has been approved by the board of directors of the

corporation. As used herein, the terms “Affiliate” and “Regulator” shall have the respective meanings given such terms in the Series G Certificate of Designations.

C. The shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The board of directors of this corporation shall have authority to fix by resolution or resolutions the designations and the powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and qualifications. limitations or restrictions thereof; including without limitation the voting rights, the dividend rate, conversion rights, redemption price and liquidation preference, of any series of shares of preferred stock, to fix the number of shares constituting any such series and to increase or decrease the number of shares of any such series (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding). In case the number of shares of any such series shall be so decreased the shares constituting such decrease shall resume the status which they had prior to the adoption of the resolution or resolutions originally fixing the number of shares of such series.

FIFTH: The business and affairs of this corporation shall be under the direction of a board of directors. The exact number of directors shall be fixed from time to time by the board of directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by the affirmative vote of a majority of the full board of directors.

A. Election of Directors. The directors of this corporation shall be divided into three classes: the first class, the second class and the third class. Each director shall serve for a term ending on the third annual meeting following the annual meeting at which such director was elected. At each annual election commencing at the first annual meeting of stockholders, the successors to the class of directors whose term expires at that time shall be elected by the stockholders to hold office for a term of three years to succeed those directors whose term expires, so that the term of one class of directors shall expire each year.

In the event of any change in the authorized number of directors, each director then continuing to serve as such shall continue as a director of the class of which he or she is a member until the expiration of his or her current term, or his or her prior resignation, disqualification, disability or removal. There shall be no cumulative voting in the election of directors. Election of directors need not be made by written ballot.

B. Newly Created Directorships and Vacancies. Any vacancies on the board of directors resulting from death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal from office or other cause may be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by the sole remaining director, or, in the event of the failure of the directors or the sole remaining director so to act, by the stockholders at the next annual meeting which occurs after the expiration of a 90-day period commencing on the day the vacancy is created. Directors so chosen shall hold office for a term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders at which the term of the class to which they have been elected expires. A director elected to fill a vacancy by reason of an increase in the number of directorships may be elected by a majority vote of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum of the board of directors, to serve until the next election of the class for which such director shall have been chosen. It the number of

directors is changed, any increase or decrease may be allocated to any such class the board of directors selects in its discretion. No decrease in the number of directors constituting the board of directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director.

C. Removal. A director may be removed only for cause as determined by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the shares then entitled to vote in an election of directors, which vote may only be taken at an annual meeting or a special meeting of stockholders called expressly for that purpose. Cause for removal shall be deemed to exist only if the director whose removal is proposed has been convicted of a felony by a court of competent jurisdiction or has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to be liable for gross negligence or misconduct in the performance of such director’s duty to the corporation and such adjudication is no longer subject to direct appeal.

SIXTH: A. Higher Vote for Certain Business Combinations.

The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

B. Actions or Suits by or in the Right of the Corporation. The corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he or she is or was or has agreed to become a director or officer of the corporation or is or was serving or has agreed to serve at the request of the corporation as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, or by reason of any action, alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against costs, charges and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her or on his or her behalf in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit and any appeal therefrom, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of such liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such costs, charges and expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

C. Indemnification for Costs, Charges and Expenses of Successful Party. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article ELEVENTH, to the extent that a director or officer has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, including, without limitation, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the dismissal of an action without prejudice, in defense on any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Paragraphs A and B of this Article ELEVENTH, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he or she shall be indemnified against all costs, charges and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her or on his or her behalf in connection therewith.

D. Determination of Right to Indemnification. Any indemnification under Paragraphs A and B of this Article ELEVENTH (unless ordered by a court) shall be paid by the corporation, if a determination is made that indemnification of the director or officer is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Paragraphs A and B of this Article ELEVENTH. Such determination shall be made (i) by the board of directors by a majority vote of the directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, or (ii) if such majority of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (iii) by the stockholders.

E. Advance of Costs. Charges and Expenses. Costs, charges and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a person referred to in Paragraphs A and B of this Article ELEVENTH in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action or proceeding; provided, however, that the payment of such costs, charges and expenses incurred by a director or officer in his or her capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such person while a director or officer) in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay all amounts so advanced in the event that it shall ultimately be determined that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this Article ELEVENTH. Such costs, charges and expenses incurred by other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the majority of the directors deems appropriate. The majority of the directors may, in the manner set forth above, and upon approval of such director or officer of the corporation, authorize the corporation’s counsel to represent such person, in any action, suit or proceeding, whether or not the corporation is a party to such action, suit or proceeding.

F. Procedure for Indemnification. Any indemnification under Paragraphs A, B and C, or advance of costs, charges and expenses under Paragraph E of this Article ELEVENTH shall be made promptly, and in any event within 60 days, upon the written request of the director or officer. The right to indemnification or advances as granted by this Article ELEVENTH shall be enforceable by the director or officer in any court of competent jurisdiction, if the corporation denies such request, in whole or in part, or if no disposition thereof is made within 60 days. Such person’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with successfully establishing his or her right to indemnification, in whole or in part, in any such action shall also be indemnified by the corporation. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for the advance of costs, charges and expenses under Paragraph E of this Article ELEVENTH where the required undertaking, if any, has been received by the corporation that the claimant has not met the standard of conduct set forth in Paragraphs A and B, of this Article ELEVENTH, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the corporation. Neither the failure of the corporation (including its board of directors, its independent legal counsel and its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Paragraphs A and B of this Article ELEVENTH, nor the fact that there has been an actual determination by the corporation (including its board of directors, its independent legal counsel and its stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct.

G. Settlement. The corporation shall not be obligated to reimburse the costs of any settlement to which it has not agreed. If in any action, suit or proceeding, including any appeal within the scope of Paragraphs A and B of this Article ELEVENTH, the person to be indemnified shall have unreasonably failed to enter into a settlement thereof offered or assented to by the opposing party or parties in such action, suit or proceeding, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof the indemnification obligation of the corporation to such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding shall not exceed the total of the amount at which settlement could have been made and the expenses incurred by such person prior to the time such settlement could reasonably have been effected.

H. Subsequent Amendment. No amendment, termination or repeal of this Article ELEVENTH or of relevant provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law or any other applicable law shall affect or diminish in any way the rights of any director or officer of the corporation to indemnification under the provisions hereof with respect to any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to, any actions, transactions or facts occurring prior to the final adoption of such amendment termination or repeal.

I. Other Rights; Continuation of Right to Indemnification. The indemnification provided by this Article ELEVENTH shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which a director, officer, employee or agent seeking indemnification may be entitled under any law (common or statutory), agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his or her official capacity and as to action in any other capacity while holding office or while employed by or acting as agent for the corporation, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent, and shall inure to the benefit of the estate, heirs, executors and administrators of such person. Nothing contained in this Article ELEVENTH shall be deemed to prohibit and the corporation is specifically authorized to enter into agreements with officers and directors providing indemnification rights and procedures different from those set forth herein. All rights to indemnification under this Article ELEVENTH shall be deemed to be a contract between the corporation and each director or officer of the corporation who serves or served in such capacity at any time while this Article ELEVENTH is in effect. The corporation shall not consent to any acquisition, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction unless the successor corporation assumes by operation of law or by agreement the obligations set forth in this Article ELEVENTH.

J. Savings Clause. If this Article ELEVENTH or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each director or officer of the corporation as to any costs, charges, expenses (including attorney’s fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement with respect to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, including an action by or in the right of the corporation, to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article ELEVENTH that shall not have been invalidated and to the full extent permitted by applicable law.

K. Subsequent Legislation. If the Delaware General Corporation Law is amended after the date hereof to further expand the indemnification permitted to directors and officers of the corporation, then the corporation shall indemnify such person to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as so amended.

TWELFTH: Stockholder nominations of persons for election as directors of this corporation and stockholder proposals with respect to business to be conducted at an annual meeting of stockholders must, in order to be voted upon, be made in writing and delivered to the secretary of this corporation on or before 30 days (or such other period as may be established in the bylaws) in advance of the date (month and day) of the previous year’s annual meeting.

The Board or a committee designated by the Board may reject any nomination by a stockholder not timely made in accordance with the requirements of this Section 3.2.5.

If the deficiency is not cured within such period, or if the Board or such committee determines that the additional information provided by the stockholder, together with information previously provided, does not satisfy the requirements of this Section 3.5 in any material respect, then the Board may reject such stockholder’s notice and the proposed nominations shall not be accepted if presented at the stockholder meeting to which the notice relates. The Secretary of the corporation shall notify a stockholder in writing whether his or her nomination has been made in accordance with the time and informational requirements of this Section 3.5.

procedure set forth in this Section 3.5, if neither the Board nor such committee makes a determination as to the validity of any nominations by a stockholder, the presiding officer of the stockholder’s meeting shall determine and declare at the meeting whether a nomination was not made in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.4. If the presiding officer determines that a nomination was not made in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.5 he or she shall so declare at the meeting and the defective nomination shall not be accepted.

Such list shall be subject to inspection by any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, at any time during the period of 10 days before the meeting, either at a place within the city where the meeting is to be held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting, or, if not so specified in the notice of the meeting, at the place where the meeting is to be held. Such list shall also be produced and kept open at the time and place of the meeting and shall be subject to the inspection of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during the whole time of the meeting.

Section 3.6 Quorum. A majority of the shares entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at a meeting of the stockholders.

When any stockholders’ meeting, either annual or special, is adjourned for more than 30 days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. Except as provided above, it shall not be necessary to give any notice of the adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which such adjournment is taken.

3.8.2 Method; Vote Required. Unless otherwise required by law, voting may be oral or by written ballot; provided, however, that all elections for directors must be by ballot if demanded by a stockholder before such voting begins. Except as provided in Section 3.5 and except with respect to election of directors, the affirmative vote of the majority of the shares represented and voting at a duly held meeting at which a quorum is present (which shares voting affirmatively also constitute at least a majority of the required quorum) shall be the act of the stockholders, unless the vote of a greater number or voting by classes is required by the General Corporation Law or the certificate of incorporation or these Bylaws. Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors.

3.8.3 Voting of Shares by Certain Holders.

Shares standing in the name of a trustee may be voted by him or her, either in person or by proxy, but no trustee shall be entitled to vote shares held by him or her without a transfer of such shares into his or her name.

Neither treasury shares of its own stock held by the corporation, nor shares held by another corporation, if a majority of the shares entitled to vote for the election of directors of such other corporation are held directly or indirectly by the corporation, shall be voted at any meeting or counted in determining the total number of outstanding shares at any given time for purposes of any meeting.

Section 3.9 Conduct of Meetings.

Section 3.10 Proxies. At all meetings of the stockholders, every stockholder having the right to vote shall be entitled to vote in person or by proxy appointed by an instrument in writing and complying with the requirements of the General Corporation Law. No proxy shall be valid after the expiration of three years from the date thereof unless otherwise provided in the proxy. A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if, and only so long as, it is coupled with an interest in the stock of the corporation or in the corporation generally which is sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power.

Section 3.11 Informal Action by Stockholders. Unless otherwise stated in the certificate of incorporation, any action required to be taken or which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders of the corporation may only be taken by written consent without a meeting if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by all of the stockholders of the corporation entitled to vote thereon.

Section 3.12 Inspectors of Election. In advance of any meeting of stockholders, the Board may appoint any persons other than nominees for office as inspectors of election to act at such meeting or any adjournment thereof.

The number of inspectors shall be either one or three, as determined by presiding officer of the meeting. The duties of such inspectors shall include: determining the number of shares of stock and the voting power of each share, the shares of stock represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum, and the authenticity, validity and effect of the proxies; receiving votes, ballots or consents; hearing and determining all challenges and questions in any way arising in connection with the right to vote; counting and tabulating all votes or consents; determining the result, and such acts as may be proper to conduct the election or vote with fairness to all stockholders.

DIRECTORS

Section 4.1 Powers. Subject to any limitations imposed by law, the certificate of incorporation and these Bylaws as to actions which shall be authorized or approved by the stockholders, and subject to the duties of directors as prescribed thereby, the business and affairs of the corporation shall be managed and all corporate powers shall be exercised by or under the direction of the Board. Each director shall perform the duties of a director, including duties of a member of any Committee of the Board of which the director may serve, in good faith, in a manner the director believes to be in the best interests of the corporation and with such care, including responsible inquiry, as an ordinary prudent person in a like position would use under the same or similar circumstances.

Section 4.2 Number of Directors. The exact number of directors shall be fixed from time to time by the Board pursuant to a resolution adopted by the affirmative vote of a majority of the full Board.

Section 4.3 Election and Term of Office. The directors shall be divided into three classes: the first class, the second class and the third class. Each director shall serve for a term ending on the third annual meeting following the annual meeting at which such director was elected; provided, however, that the directors first elected to the first class shall serve for a term ending upon the election of directors at the annual meeting next following the end of the calendar year 1995, the directors first elected to the second class shall serve for a term ending upon the election of directors at the second annual meeting next following the end of the calendar year 1995, and the directors first elected to the third class shall serve for a term ending upon the election of directors at the third annual meeting next following the end of the calendar year 1995.

Section 4.4 Newly Created Directorships and Vacancies. Any vacancies on the Board resulting from death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal from office or other cause may only be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by the sole remaining director, or, in the event of the failure of the directors or the sole remaining director so to act, by the stockholders at the next annual meeting which occurs after the expiration of a 90-day period commencing on the day the vacancy is created. Directors so chosen shall hold office for a term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders at which the term of the class to which they have been elected expires. A director elected to fill a vacancy by

reason of an increase in the number of directorships may be elected by a majority vote of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum of the Board, to serve until the next election of the class for which such director shall have been chosen. If the number of directors is changed, any increase or decrease may be allocated to any such class the Board selects in its discretion.

Such notice shall specify the time and place of the meeting, which may be within or without the State of Delaware, and the general nature of the business to be transacted, and no other business may be transacted at the meeting. Such notice shall be deposited in the mail, postage prepaid at least four days prior to the meeting, directed to the address of the director on the records of the corporation or delivered in person or by telephone or telegram, telecopy or other means of electronic transmission to the director at least 48 hours before the meeting. Notice of a meeting need not be given to any director who signs a waiver of notice or a consent to holding the meeting, or an approval of the minutes thereof, whether before or after such meeting, or who attends the meeting without protesting, prior thereto or at its commencement, the lack of notice to such director. All such waivers, consents and approvals shall be filed with the corporate records or made a part of the minutes of the meeting.

Section 4.8 Quorum; Majority Action. A majority of the authorized number of directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of the Board, but if less than such majority is present at a meeting, a majority of the directors present may adjourn the meeting from time to time. Notice of any adjourned meeting shall be given in the same manner as prescribed in Section 4.7 of these Bylaws. Every act or decision of a majority of the directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present, made or done at a meeting duly held, shall be valid as the act of the Board, unless a greater number is required by law or the certificate of incorporation or these Bylaws.

Section 4.9 Action Without Meeting. Any action required or permitted to be taken by the Board may be taken without a meeting if all members of the Board shall

individually or collectively consent in writing to such action. Such written consent or consents shall be filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the Board and shall have the same force and effect as a unanimous vote of the Board.

Section 4.10 Telephonic and Other Electronic Meetings. Members of the Board may participate in any regular or special meeting, including meetings of committees of the Board, through use of conference telephone or other electronic communications equipment, so long as all members participating in such meeting can hear one another.

Section 4.11 Fees and Compensation. Fees and compensation of directors and members of committees for their services, and reimbursement for expenses, shall be fixed or determined by a resolution of the Board. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to preclude any director from serving the corporation in any other capacity as an officer, employee, agent or otherwise, and receiving compensation therefor.

Section 4.12 Removal. A director may be removed only for cause as determined by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the shares then entitled to vote in an election of directors, which vote may only be taken at an annual meeting or a special meeting. Cause for removal shall be deemed to exist only if the director whose removal is proposed has been convicted of a felony by a court of competent jurisdiction or has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to be liable for gross negligence or misconduct in the performance of such director’s duty to the corporation and such adjudication is no longer subject to direct appeal.

Section 4.13 Directors Emeritus/Advisory Directors.

(h) The election, removal or fixing of the compensation of the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer or the President.

The Board may, by resolution, fix the regular meeting date of the executive committee, and notice of any such regular meeting date shall be dispensed with. Special meetings of the executive committee may be held at the principal office of the corporation, or at any place which has been designated from time to time by resolution of the executive committee or by written consent of all members thereof and may be called by the Chairman of the Board, the President, any Executive Vice President who is a member of the executive committee, or any two members thereof, upon written notice to the members of the executive committee of the time and place of such special meeting given in the manner provided for the giving of written notice to members of the Board of the time and place of special meetings of the Board. Vacancies in the membership of the executive committee may be filled by the Board. A majority of the authorized number of members of the executive committee shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business; and transactions of any meeting of the executive committee, however, called and noticed, or wherever held, shall be as valid as though at a meeting duly held after regular call and notice, if a quorum is present and if, either before or after the meeting, each of the members not present signs a written waiver of notice or a consent to holding such meeting or an approval of the minutes thereof. All such waivers, consents or approvals shall be filed with the corporation’s records or made a part of the minutes of the meeting.

Any action required or permitted to be taken by the executive committee may be taken without a meeting if all members of the executive committee shall collectively consent in writing to such action. Such written consent or consents shall be filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the executive committee. Such action by written consent shall have the same force and effect as a unanimous vote of such members of the executive committee. Any certificate or other document filed under any provision of the General Corporation Law which relates to action so taken shall state that the action was taken by unanimous written consent of the executive committee without meeting, and that these Bylaws authorize the members of the executive committee to so act.

Section 6.2 Other Committees. The Board may, but shall not be required to, designate any other committee consisting of two or more directors, to serve at the pleasure of the Board. Any such committee shall possess such powers of the Board as the Board shall by its resolution provide, except that it shall not in any event have authority with respect to any of the transactions which are prohibited to the executive committee by Section 6.1.

Unless the Board shall otherwise prescribe the manner of proceedings of any other committee, meetings of such committee may be regularly scheduled in advance and may be called at any time by the Chairman of the Board, or the President, or any two

members of the committee; otherwise, the provisions of these Bylaws with respect to notice and conduct of meetings of the Board shall govern.
