AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER, dated as of June 28, 2019 (this “Agreement”), by and between BayCom Corp, a California corporation (“BayCom”), and TIG Bancorp, a Colorado corporation (“TIG”, and together with BayCom, the “Parties”).

RECITALS

A. The respective Boards of Directors of each of the Parties have determined that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby are fair to and in the best interests of their respective companies and shareholders with this Agreement providing for a business combination transaction in which TIG will, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, merge with and into BayCom (the “Merger”), with BayCom as the surviving corporation in the Merger (sometimes referred to in such capacity as the “Surviving Company”).

B. As a condition to the willingness of BayCom to enter into this Agreement, all of the directors and executive officers of TIG and certain stockholders of TIG have entered into the Voting Agreement (“Voting Agreement”), substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, dated as of the date hereof, with BayCom.

C. As a condition to the willingness of BayCom to enter into this Agreement, all of the independent directors of TIG have entered into a resignation, non-solicitation and non-disclosure agreement and each non-independent director has entered into a resignation, non-competition and non-disclosure agreement (each a “Non-Compete Agreement”), substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, Exhibit C or Exhibit D, dated as of the date hereof but effective upon consummation of the Merger, with BayCom.

D. The Parties intend the Merger to be treated as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and intend for this Agreement to constitute a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-2(g).

E. The Parties desire to make certain covenants, 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 in this Agreement, 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 California General Corporation Law, as amended (the “CGCL), the California Financial Code, as amended (“the CFC”), and the Colorado Corporations and Associations Act, as amended (the “CCAA) at the Effective Time (as defined in Section 1.2), TIG shall merge with and into BayCom. BayCom shall be the Surviving Company in the Merger and shall continue its existence as a corporation under the laws of the State of California. As of the Effective Time, the separate corporate existence of TIG shall cease.

1.2 Effective Time. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, simultaneously with the Closing (as defined in Section 9.1), the Parties shall execute, and BayCom shall cause to be filed an appropriate agreement of merger and statement of merger relating to the Merger with the Secretary of State of California (“the California Secretary of State”) and the Secretary of State of the State of Colorado (the “Colorado Secretary of State”), respectively. The Merger will become effective upon the filing of such agreement of merger and statement of merger or such later date and time as may be set forth in such filing (the time the Merger becomes effective being referred to as the "Effective Time. ")

1.3 Effects of the Merger. At and after the Effective Time, the Merger shall have the effects set forth in the CGCL and CCAA.

1.4 Conversion of Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of TIG, BayCom or the holders of any of the following securities:

(a) BayCom Common Stock. Each share of common stock, no par value, of BayCom (“BayCom Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall continue to be one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock, no par value, of the Surviving Company.

(b) TIG Common Stock. Subject to Sections 1.4(c) and 1.4(d), each share of voting common stock, $0.01 par value, of TIG (“TIG Voting Common Stock”) and each share of non-voting common stock, $0.01 par value, of TIG (“TIG Non-Voting Common Stock”) (TIG Voting Common Stock and TIG Non-Voting Common Stock are sometimes collectively referred to herein as “TIG Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, including Trust Account Common Shares and DPC Common Shares (as such terms are defined in Section 1.4(c)), but excluding any Cancelled Shares (as defined Section 1.4(c)) and Dissenting Shares (as defined in Section 1.4(d)), shall be converted, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Article II, into the right to receive (i) .27543 shares (the “Exchange Ratio”) of BayCom Common Stock and (ii) $6.34 in cash without interest (the “Cash Consideration”) (such consideration set forth in clauses (i) and (ii), the “ Merger Consideration”). All of the shares of TIG Common Stock converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration 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 previously representing any such shares of TIG Common Stock (each, an “Existing Certificate”) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration and any cash in lieu of a fractional share interest into which the shares of TIG Common Stock represented by such Existing Certificate have been converted pursuant to this Section 1.4 and Section 2.3(f), as well as any dividends as provided in Section 2.3(c). Any reference to an “Existing Certificate” in this Agreement shall be deemed, as appropriate, to include reference to book-entry account statements relating to the ownership of TIG Common Stock, and any provisions herein relating to Existing Certificates shall be interpreted in a manner that appropriately accounts for book-entry shares, including that, in lieu of delivery of an Existing Certificate and a letter of transmittal as specified herein, shares held in book-entry form may be transferred by means of an “agent’s message” or similar mechanism to the Exchange Agent (defined in Section 2.1) or such other similar evidence of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request).

(c) Cancelled Shares. Shares of TIG Common Stock that are owned immediately prior to the Effective Time by TIG, any TIG Subsidiary, BayCom or any BayCom Subsidiary (other than shares of TIG Common Stock 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 (any such shares, “Trust Account Common Shares” and other than shares of TIG Common Stock held, directly or indirectly, by TIG, any TIG Subsidiary, BayCom or any BayCom Subsidiary in respect of a debt previously contracted (any such shares, “DPC Common Shares”)) shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist and no stock of BayCom or other consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor (any such shares, the “Cancelled Shares”).

(d) Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, all shares of TIG Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by a shareholder that has demanded and perfected a demand for payment of the fair value of her, his or its TIG Common Stock pursuant to Section 0-000-000, et seq. of the CCAA, and as of the Effective Time has neither effectively withdrawn or lost such appraisal right (the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive the Merger Consideration hereunder, and the holder thereof shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by the CCAA. TIG shall give BayCom prompt notice upon receipt by TIG of any such written demands for payment of the fair value of such shares of TIG Common Stock and of withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments provided pursuant to the CCAA. If any holder of Dissenting Shares shall have effectively withdrawn or lost the right to dissent (through failure to perfect or otherwise), the Dissenting Shares held by such holder shall be converted on a share by share basis into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, without any interest thereon. Any payments made in respect of Dissenting Shares shall be made by or at the direction of BayCom within the time period set forth in the CCAA. TIG shall give BayCom (i) prompt notice of any written notices of intent to demand payment under the CCAA or other written notices relating to the exercise of dissenters’ rights in respect of any shares of TIG Common Stock, attempted withdrawals of such notices and any other instruments served pursuant the CCAA and received by TIG relating to shareholders’ dissenters’ rights and (ii) the opportunity to participate in negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for fair value under the CCAA. TIG shall not, except with the prior written consent of BayCom, which is not to be unreasonably withheld, voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle, or offer or agree to settle, any such demand for payment. Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent pursuant to Article II to pay for shares of TIG Common Stock for which dissenters’ rights have been perfected shall be returned to BayCom upon demand.

(e) Adjustment to Exchange Ratio. If, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of BayCom Common 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, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, or other similar change in capitalization, then an appropriate and proportionate adjustment shall be made to the Exchange Ratio to provide the holders of TIG Common Stock converted into Merger Consideration the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement with respect to the stock portion of the Merger Consideration prior to such event.

1.5 Incorporation Documents and By-Laws of the Surviving Company. At the Effective Time, the articles of incorporation of BayCom in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the articles of incorporation of the Surviving Company until thereafter amended in accordance with applicable law. The by-laws of BayCom, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the by-laws of the Surviving Company until thereafter amended in accordance with applicable law and the terms of such by-laws.

1.6 Directors and Officers. The directors of BayCom immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the directors of the Surviving Company and shall hold office until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, or their earlier death, resignation or removal. The officers of BayCom immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the officers of the Surviving Company and shall hold office until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, or their earlier death, resignation or removal.

1.7 Additional Actions. If, at any time after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company shall consider that any further assignments or assurances in law or any other acts are necessary or desirable to (i) vest, perfect or confirm, of record or otherwise, in the Surviving Company its right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, properties or assets of TIG acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Company as a result of, or in connection with, the Merger, or (ii) otherwise carry out the purposes of this Agreement, TIG, and its proper officers and directors, shall be deemed to have granted to the Surviving Company an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest to execute and deliver all such proper deeds, assignments and assurances in law and to do all acts necessary or proper to vest, perfect or confirm title to and possession of such rights, properties or assets in the Surviving Company and otherwise to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, and the proper officers and directors of the Surviving Company are fully authorized in the name of TIG or the Surviving Company or otherwise to take any and all such action without limitation except as otherwise required by applicable law.

1.8 The Bank Merger. Immediately after the Effective Time, BayCom intends to merge First State Bank of Colorado (“FSB”), a Colorado-chartered commercial bank and wholly owned subsidiary of TIG, with and into United Business Bank, a California-chartered commercial bank and wholly owned subsidiary of BayCom (the “Bank Merger”) in accordance with the provisions of applicable state and federal banking laws and regulations, and United Business Bank shall be the resulting institution or surviving bank (the “Surviving Bank”). The Bank Merger shall have the effects as set forth under applicable state and federal banking laws and regulations and the Boards of Directors of the Parties shall approve, and shall cause the boards of directors of FSB and United Business Bank, respectively, to approve, a separate combination agreement/plan of merger (the “Bank Plan of Merger”) in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit E, and cause the Bank Plan of Merger to be executed and delivered as soon as practicable following the date of execution of this Agreement. In addition, TIG shall cause FSB, and BayCom shall cause United Business Bank, to execute and file in accordance with applicable state and federal banking laws and regulations such articles of merger or combination, corporate resolutions, and/or other documents and certificates as are necessary to make the Bank Merger effective (the “Bank Merger Certificates”).

1.9 Change in Structure. BayCom may at any time change the method of effecting the combination (including by providing for the merger of a wholly owned subsidiary of BayCom with TIG) if and to the extent requested by BayCom; provided, however, that no such change or amendment shall (i) alter or change the amount or kind of the Merger Consideration to be received by the shareholders of TIG, (ii) adversely affect the tax consequences of the Merger to the shareholders of TIG or the tax treatment of either party pursuant to this Agreement or (iii) impede or materially delay consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

1.10 Tax Adjustment. If the Merger fails to satisfy the “continuity of interest” requirements under applicable federal income tax principles relating to reorganizations under Section 368(a) of the Code, then BayCom shall reduce the Cash Consideration (and increase the Exchange Ratio accordingly) to the minimum extent necessary to enable the Merger to meet the requirements for reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code. The number of shares of BayCom Common Stock by which the Exchange Ratio will be increased will be equal to the amount by which the Cash Consideration is reduced divided by $12.85.

ARTICLE II

EXCHANGE OF SHARES

2.1 Exchange Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, BayCom shall appoint BayCom’s transfer agent pursuant to an agreement (the “Exchange Agent Agreement”) to act as exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) hereunder.

2.2 BayCom to Make Merger Consideration Available. At or prior to the Effective Time, BayCom shall (i) deposit, or cause to deposited with the Exchange Agent, or authorize the Exchange Agent to issue, an aggregate number of shares of BayCom Common Stock equal to the aggregate stock portion of the Merger Consideration and (ii) shall establish an escrow account at United Business Bank for the benefit of the Exchange Agent, an amount in cash sufficient to pay the aggregate Cash Consideration payable to holders of TIG Common Stock and, to the extent determinable, any cash in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 2.3(f), and, together with any dividends or distributions with respect thereto payable pursuant to Section 2.3(c),(collectively the (the “Exchange Fund”), and BayCom shall instruct the Exchange Agent to timely deliver the Merger Consideration upon receipt of a properly completed Letter of Transmittal (as defined below).

2.3 Exchange of Shares.

(a) Subject to Section 1.4(d), as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (and in any event within five (5) business days thereafter), and subject to the receipt by the Exchange Agent of a list of TIG’s shareholders in a format that is reasonably acceptable to the Exchange Agent, the Exchange Agent shall mail to each holder of an Existing Certificate or Existing Certificates, (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to such Existing Certificate or Existing Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of such Existing Certificate or Existing Certificates (or an affidavit of loss in lieu thereof to the Exchange Agent) in such form and substance as shall be prescribed by the Exchange Agent Agreement (the “Letter of Transmittal”) and (ii) instructions for use in surrendering such Existing Certificate or Existing Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration and any cash in lieu of a fractional share of BayCom Common Stock to be issued or paid in consideration therefor and any dividends or distributions to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.3(c).

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable after surrender to the Exchange Agent of its Existing Certificate or Existing Certificates, accompanied by a properly completed Letter of Transmittal, such holder of TIG Common Stock will be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration, any cash in lieu of a fractional share of BayCom Common Stock to be issued or paid in consideration therefor, and any dividends or distributions to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.3(c), in respect of the shares of TIG Common Stock represented by such holder’s Existing Certificate or Existing Certificates. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.3, each Existing Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive, upon surrender, without interest, the Merger Consideration and any cash in lieu of fractional shares or in respect of dividends or distributions as contemplated by this Section 2.3. TIG shall cause its transfer agent to cooperate with BayCom and the Exchange Agent to provide TIG shareholder records, as necessary and appropriate to effect the Closing.

(c) No dividends or other distributions with respect to BayCom Common Stock shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Existing Certificate with respect to the shares of BayCom Common Stock represented thereby, unless and until the surrender of such Existing Certificate in accordance with this Article II. Subject to the effect of applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws, following surrender of any such Existing Certificate or Existing Certificates in accordance with this Article II, the record holder thereof shall be entitled to receive, without interest, and in addition to the other amounts set forth herein, (i) the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time payable with respect to the whole shares of BayCom Common Stock represented by such Existing Certificate or Existing Certificates and not paid and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions payable with respect to whole shares of BayCom Common Stock represented by such Existing Certificate or Existing Certificates with a record date after the Effective Time (but before such surrender date) and with a payment date subsequent to the issuance of the BayCom Common Stock issuable with respect to such Existing Certificate or Existing Certificates.

(d) In the event of a transfer of ownership of an Existing Certificate prior to the Effective Time that is not registered in the stock transfer records of TIG, the Merger Consideration, any cash in lieu of a fractional share of BayCom Common Stock to be issued or paid in consideration therefor, and any dividends or distributions to which such holder is entitled, shall be issued or paid in exchange therefor to a person other than the person in whose name the Existing Certificate so surrendered is registered if the Existing Certificate formerly representing such TIG Common Stock shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the person requesting such payment or issuance shall pay any transfer or other similar Taxes (as defined in Section 3.10(b)) required by reason of the payment or issuance to a person other than the registered holder of the Existing Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of BayCom that the Tax has been paid or is not applicable. The Exchange Agent (or, subsequent to the earlier of (x) six months after the Effective Time and (y) the expiration or termination of the Exchange Agent Agreement, BayCom) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Cash Consideration and any cash in lieu of a fractional share of BayCom Common Stock or any other cash payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of TIG Common Stock such amounts as the Exchange Agent or BayCom, as the case may be, is required to deduct and withhold under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign tax law, with respect to the making of such payment. To the extent amounts are so withheld by the Exchange Agent or BayCom, as the case may be, and timely paid over to the appropriate Governmental Entity (as defined in Section 3.4), such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of shares of TIG Common Stock in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made by the Exchange Agent or BayCom, as the case may be.

(e) After the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of TIG of the shares of TIG Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time other than to settle transfers of TIG Common Stock that occurred prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Existing Certificates representing such shares are presented for transfer to the Exchange Agent, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of BayCom Common Stock to be issued or paid in consideration therefor, and any dividends or distributions to which such holder is entitled, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Article II.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no fractional shares of BayCom Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender of Existing Certificates for exchange, no dividend or distribution with respect to BayCom Common Stock shall be payable on or with respect to any fractional share, and such fractional share interest shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a shareholder of BayCom. In lieu of the issuance of any such fractional share, BayCom shall pay to each former shareholder of TIG who otherwise would be entitled to receive such fractional share an amount in cash (rounded to the nearest cent) determined by the Exchange Agent by multiplying (i) $23.00 by (ii) the fraction of a share (after taking into account all shares of TIG Common Stock held by such holder at the Effective Time and rounded to the nearest one ten thousandth when expressed in decimal form) of BayCom Common Stock to which such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to Section 1.4(b).

(g) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by the former shareholders of TIG at the expiration of six months after the Effective Time shall be paid to BayCom. In such event, any former shareholders of TIG who have not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to BayCom with respect to the Merger Consideration, any cash in lieu of any fractional share interest and any unpaid dividends and distributions on the BayCom Common Stock deliverable in respect of the shares represented by an Existing Certificate such shareholder holds as determined pursuant to this Agreement, in each case, without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of BayCom, TIG, the Surviving Company, the Exchange Agent or any other person shall be liable to any former holder of shares of TIG Common Stock for any amount delivered in good faith to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws.

(h) In the event any Existing Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Existing Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by BayCom or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such person of a bond in such amount as BayCom may determine is reasonably necessary as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Existing Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Existing Certificate, the Merger Consideration, any cash in lieu of any fractional share interest and any dividends and distributions to which such person is entitled in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement.

Except as disclosed in the disclosure schedule delivered by TIG to BayCom concurrently herewith (the “TIG 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 TIG Disclosure Schedule as an exception to a representation or warranty shall not be deemed an admission by TIG that such item represents a material exception or fact, event or circumstance or that such item is reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in Section 3.1(a)) on TIG and (c) any disclosures made with respect to a section of Article III shall be deemed to qualify (1) any other section of Article III specifically referenced or cross-referenced and (2) other sections of 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, TIG hereby represents and warrants to BayCom as follows:

3.1 Corporate Organization.

(a) TIG is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Colorado, and is a bank holding company duly registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHC Act”). TIG has the corporate power and authority to own or lease all of its properties and assets as presently owned, operated or leased and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted. TIG is duly licensed or qualified to do business in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted by it or the character or location of the properties and assets owned or leased by it makes such licensing or qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so licensed or qualified would not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on TIG. As used in this Agreement, the term “Material Adverse Effect” means, with respect to BayCom, or TIG, any effect, circumstance, occurrence or change that (i) is material and adverse to the financial position, results of operations, business or prospects of BayCom and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole or TIG and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, as the case may be, or (ii) would materially impair the ability of either BayCom or TIG, respectively, to perform its obligations under this Agreement or otherwise materially threaten or materially impede the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that a Material Adverse Effect shall not be deemed to include the impact of (a) changes in banking and similar laws of general applicability or interpretations thereof by Governmental Authorities, (b) changes in United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) or regulatory accounting requirements applicable to banks and their holding companies generally, (c) changes in general economic conditions affecting banks and their holding companies generally, except to the extent that such changes disproportionately affect BayCom or TIG, as the case may be, (d) a decline in the trading price of BayCom’s or TIG’s common stock or the failure of either BayCom or TIG to meet earnings projections and (e) changes agreed to in writing by BayCom and TIG. As used in this Agreement, the word “Subsidiary” when used with respect to any party, means any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, bank or other organization, whether incorporated or unincorporated, which is consolidated with such party for financial reporting purposes. True and complete copies of the articles of incorporation of TIG (the “TIG Articles”) and the bylaws of TIG (the “TIG Bylaws”), as in effect as of the date of this Agreement, have previously been made available by TIG to BayCom.

(b) Each Subsidiary of TIG (a “TIG Subsidiary”) (i) is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, (ii) is duly qualified to do business and, where such concept is recognized under applicable law, is in good standing in all jurisdictions (whether federal, state, local or foreign) where its ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of its business requires it to be so qualified and in which the failure to be so qualified would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on TIG and (iii) has all requisite power and authority to own or lease its properties and assets and to carry on its business as now conducted. There are no restrictions on the ability of any TIG Subsidiary to pay dividends or distributions except for statutory restrictions on dividends or distributions generally applicable to all entities of the same type and, in the case of a Subsidiary that is a regulated entity, for restrictions on dividends or distributions generally applicable to all such regulated entities. The deposit accounts of FSB are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) through the Deposit Insurance Fund (as defined in Section 3(y) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act) to the fullest extent permitted by law, 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 TIG Disclosure Schedule sets forth a true and complete list of all Subsidiaries of TIG as of the date hereof. Except as set forth in Section 3.3(b) of the TIG Disclosure Schedule, neither TIG nor any of its Subsidiaries owns any equity or profit-and-loss interest in any business enterprise, corporation, partnership or joint venture, limited liability company, association, joint-stock company, business trust or unincorporated organization, other than a Subsidiary, readily marketable securities, securities held-to-maturity in its investment portfolio, stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Topeka (the “FHLB”). FSB is not in material violation of any of its organizational documents.

3.2 Capitalization.

There are no bonds, debentures, notes or other indebtedness that have the right to vote on any matters on which shareholders of TIG may vote. Except as set forth on Section 3.2 of the TIG Disclosure Schedule, there are no obligations of TIG or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to which TIG or any of its Subsidiaries is or could be required pursuant to the terms thereof to register any of its securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act”). No trust preferred or subordinated debt securities of TIG or any of its Subsidiaries are issued or outstanding. There are no outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, puts, calls, rights, exchangeable or convertible securities or other commitments or agreements obligating TIG to issue, transfer, sell, purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire, any shares of TIG Common Stock or any other of its securities.

(b) TIG owns, directly or indirectly, all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock or other equity ownership interests of each of the TIG Subsidiaries, free and clear of any liens, pledges, charges, encumbrances and security interests whatsoever (“Liens”), and all of such shares or equity ownership interests are duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid, nonassessable (except, with respect to FSB, as provided under applicable law) and free of preemptive rights, with no personal liability attaching to the ownership thereof. No TIG Subsidiary has or is bound by any outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, rights, commitments or agreements of any character calling for the purchase or issuance of any shares of capital stock or any other equity security of such Subsidiary or any securities representing the right to purchase or otherwise receive any shares of capital stock or any other equity security of such Subsidiary.

(c) Each TIG Benefit Plan has been established, operated and administered in all material respects substantially in accordance with its terms and the requirements of all applicable laws, including ERISA and the Code. None of TIG and its Subsidiaries or any TIG ERISA Affiliate has any corrective action pending or within the prior three years made a filing under any voluntary correction program of the IRS, United States Department of Labor or any other Governmental Entity with respect to any TIG Benefit Plan, and neither TIG nor any of its Subsidiaries has any knowledge of any plan defect that would qualify for correction under any such program.

(d) Section 3.11(d) of the TIG Disclosure Schedule identifies each TIG Benefit Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code (collectively, the “TIG Qualified Plans”). The IRS has issued a favorable determination letter, or an opinion letter for a prototype or volume submitter plan upon which TIG may rely, for the most recent period for which such determination letter was available from the IRS with respect to each TIG Qualified Plan and the related trust, which letter has not been revoked (nor has revocation been threatened), and, to the knowledge of TIG, there are no existing circumstances and no events have occurred that could adversely affect the qualified status of any TIG Qualified Plan or the related trust or increase the costs relating thereto. No trust funding any TIG Benefit Plan is intended to meet the requirements of Section 501(c)(9) of the Code.

(e) Each TIG Benefit Plan that is a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” (as defined in Section 409A(d)(1) of the Code) and any award thereunder, in each case that is subject to Section 409A of the Code, has (i) since January 1, 2005, been maintained and operated, in all material respects, in good faith compliance with Section 409A of the Code and IRS Notice 2005-1 and (ii) since January 1, 2008, been, in all material respects, in documentary and operational compliance with Section 409A of the Code (or has properly corrected any such errors in accordance with IRS Notice 2008-113 and applicable guidance).

No TIG Benefit Plan is underfunded when comparing the present value of accrued liabilities under such plan to the market value of plan assets.

(g) None of TIG and its Subsidiaries nor any TIG ERISA Affiliate has ever contributed to or been obligated to contribute to any plan that is a “multiemployer plan” within the meaning of Section 4001(a)(3) of ERISA (a “Multiemployer Plan”), a plan that is a “multiple employer welfare arrangement” as defined in Section 3(40) of ERISA (a “Multiple Employer Welfare Arrangement”), 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 TIG and its Subsidiaries nor any TIG ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability to a Multiemployer Plan, Multiple Employer Welfare Arrangements, 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, Multiple Employer Welfare Arrangement or Multiple Employer Plan. With respect to any multiple employer plan in which TIG or any of its Subsidiaries or any TIG ERISA Affiliate has participated in at any time since December 31, 2013, such plan and each participating employer in such plan has complied with all requirements of the Code and ERISA applicable to such plan and each participating employer in such plan at all times since December 31, 2013, and TIG and its Subsidiaries may withdraw from such plan without incurring any liability associated with such withdrawal.

(h) None of TIG and its Subsidiaries nor any TIG ERISA Affiliate sponsors, has sponsored or has any obligation with respect to any employee benefit plan that provides for 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.

(a) Following the Effective Time, BayCom shall maintain or cause to be maintained employee benefit plans for the benefit of employees of TIG and its Subsidiaries who continue their employment after the Effective Time (“Covered Employees”) that provide employee benefits which are substantially comparable with respect to all material features to the employee benefits that are made available to similarly situated employees of BayCom or its Subsidiaries (other than TIG and its Subsidiaries), as applicable; provided that (i) in no event shall any Covered Employee be eligible to participate in any closed or frozen plan of BayCom or its Subsidiaries; and (ii) until such time as BayCom shall cause Covered Employees to participate in the benefit plans that are made available to similarly situated employees of BayCom or its Subsidiaries (other than TIG and its Subsidiaries), a Covered Employee’s continued participation in employee benefit plans of TIG and its Subsidiaries that are continued by BayCom or a BayCom Subsidiary shall be deemed to satisfy the foregoing provisions of this sentence (it being understood that participation in the BayCom Benefit Plans may commence at different times with respect to each BayCom Benefit Plan).

(b) To the extent that a Covered Employee becomes eligible to participate in a BayCom Benefit Plan, BayCom shall cause such BayCom Benefit Plan to (i) recognize prior service of such Covered Employee with TIG, its Subsidiaries or their predecessors for purposes of eligibility, participation, and vesting but not for the purposes of benefit accruals, but only to the extent that such service was recognized immediately prior to the Effective Time under a comparable TIG Benefit Plan in which such Covered Employee was eligible to participate immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided that such recognition of service shall not operate to duplicate any benefits of a Covered Employee with respect to the same period of service; (ii) with respect to any BayCom Benefit Plan that is a health, dental, vision plan or other similar plan in which any Covered Employee is eligible to participate for the plan year in which such Covered Employee is first eligible to participate, BayCom or its applicable Subsidiary shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to (A) cause any pre-existing condition limitations or eligibility waiting periods under such BayCom or Subsidiary plan to be waived with respect to such Covered Employee to the extent such condition was or would have been covered under the TIG Benefit Plan in which such Covered Employee participated immediately prior to the Effective Time, or to the extent the Covered Employee has or had satisfied the applicable eligibility waiting period under the TIG Benefit Plan, and (B) recognize any health, dental, vision or other similar expenses incurred by such Covered Employee in the year that includes the Closing Date (or, if later, the year in which such Covered Employee is first eligible to participate) for purposes of any applicable deductible and annual out-of-pocket expense requirements under any such health, dental, vision or other welfare plan; and (iii) for purposes of vacation or paid time off (“PTO”) benefits, BayCom will treat service of a Covered Employee at TIG or FSB as equivalent to service at BayCom for determining such Covered Employee’s eligibility and participation under the BayCom vacation or PTO plan, and any vacation or PTO taken prior to the Closing Date (or such later date when PTO plans or programs are integrated) shall be subtracted under the BayCom plan from the Covered Employee’s maximum vacation or PTO entitlement for the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs.

(c) Prior to the Effective Time, TIG shall take, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to take, all actions reasonably requested by BayCom that may be necessary or appropriate to (i) cause the continuation on and after the Effective Time of any contract, arrangement or insurance policy relating to any TIG Benefit Plan for such period as may be requested by BayCom, (ii) facilitate the merger of any TIG Benefit Plan into any employee benefit plan maintained by BayCom or a BayCom Subsidiary, and/or (iii) amend or terminate one or more TIG Benefit Plans (to the extent permitted by the terms thereof and Section 409A of the Code) immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than as provided in other subsections of this Section 6.5. All resolutions, notices, or other documents issued, adopted or executed in connection with the implementation of this Section 6.5(d) shall be subject to BayCom’s prior review and approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(d) All employment, change in control and severance agreements listed in Section 3.11(a) of the TIG Disclosure Schedule and the benefits vested under the other TIG Benefit Plans, in each case with respect to employees, officers, directors and consultants of TIG or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates who are not retained immediately following the Effective Time, or who do not enter into new employment, change in control or severance agreements with BayCom prior to the Effective Time, shall be honored by the Surviving Company or a BayCom Subsidiary, except that FSB shall terminate its Executive Employment Agreement with Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx dated June 21, 2017 immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger, with no severance payments or benefits to be provided under such agreement. Any employee of TIG or FSB that becomes an employee of BayCom or United Business Bank at the Effective Time who is terminated on or within one year following the Closing (other than for cause, death, disability, normal retirement or voluntarily resignation) shall receive a severance payment calculated in accordance with the retention policy set forth on Section 6.5(e) of the BayCom Disclosure Schedule.

(e) Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon any employee, officer, director or consultant of BayCom or TIG or any of their Subsidiaries or affiliates any right to continue in the employ or service of the Surviving Company, TIG, BayCom or any Subsidiary or affiliate thereof, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Surviving Company, TIG, BayCom or any Subsidiary or affiliate thereof to discharge or terminate the services of any employee, officer, director or consultant of BayCom or TIG 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 alter or limit the ability of the Surviving Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any particular TIG Benefit Plan, BayCom Benefit Plan, or any other benefit or employment plan, program, agreement or arrangement after the Effective Time. Without limiting the generality of the final sentence of Section 9.9, nothing in this Section 6.5, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any third party, including without limitation any current or former employee, officer, director or consultant of BayCom or TIG or any of their Subsidiaries or affiliates, any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Section 6.5.

(f) In the event that any disqualified individual of TIG or its Subsidiaries receives any payments, benefits or acceleration of vesting (the “Total Payments”) in connection with the Merger that would constitute an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code that is subject to the Tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then TIG will take all steps necessary to ensure that the Total Payments will be reduced such that the value of the Total Payments that each counterparty is entitled to receive shall be $1.00 less than the maximum amount which the counterparty may receive without becoming subject to the excise tax or resulting in a disallowance of a deduction of the payment of such amount under Section 280G of the Code.

6.6 Officers’ and Directors’ Tail Insurance; Indemnification.

(a) TIG shall purchase, prior to the Effective Time, a prepaid “tail” policy providing single limit equivalent coverage to its current officers’ and directors’ liability insurance coverage with respect to actions, omissions, events, matters and circumstances occurring prior to the Effective Time for a period of up to four (4) years following the Effective Time for a premium cost not to exceed 200% of the annual premium for its current insurance coverage. If such prepaid “tail” policy has been obtained by TIG prior to the Effective Time, BayCom shall cause such policy to be maintained in full force and effect for its full term, and shall cause all obligations thereunder to be honored by BayCom and no other party shall have any further obligation to purchase or pay for insurance hereunder. The officers and directors of TIG may be required to make application and provide customary representations and warranties to TIG’s insurance carrier for the purpose of obtaining such insurance.

(b) For four (4) years from and after the Effective Time, BayCom shall indemnify and hold harmless each person who is now, or who has been at any time before the date of this Agreement, or who becomes before the Effective Time, a director or officer of TIG or any of its Subsidiaries (each, an “TIG Indemnified Party”) against all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), liabilities or judgments or amounts that are paid in settlement (which settlement shall require the prior written consent of BayCom, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of or in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding, investigation or other legal proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative or investigation (each, a “Claim”), in which a TIG Indemnified Party is, or is threatened to be made, a party or witness or arising out of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of TIG or any of its Subsidiaries if such Claim pertains to any matter of fact arising, existing or occurring at or before the Effective Time (including the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby), regardless of whether such Claim is asserted or claimed before, or after, the Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted under the organizational documents of TIG and its Subsidiaries and to the fullest extent otherwise permitted by law.

(c) In connection with the indemnification provided pursuant to Section 6.6(b), BayCom and/or a BayCom Subsidiary (i) will advance expenses, promptly after statements therefor are received, to each TIG Indemnified Party to the fullest extent permitted by law and Governmental Entities (provided the individual to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advance if it is ultimately determined that such individual is not entitled to indemnification), including the payment of the fees and expenses of one counsel with respect to a matter, and one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction, if necessary or appropriate, selected by such TIG Indemnified Party or multiple TIG Indemnified Parties, it being understood that they collectively shall only be entitled to one counsel and one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction where necessary or appropriate (unless a conflict shall exist between them in which case they may retain separate counsel), all such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to BayCom and (ii) will cooperate in the defense of any such matter.

(d) This Section 6.6 shall survive the Effective Time, is intended to benefit each TIG Indemnified Party (each of whom shall be entitled to enforce this Section against BayCom), and shall be binding on all successors and assigns of BayCom.

(e) In the event BayCom or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other person or entity and shall not be the continuing or surviving company or entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to one or more other persons or entities, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of BayCom assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.6.

6.7 No Solicitation.

(a) TIG agrees that, except as expressly permitted by Section 6.7(b), from the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time or, if earlier, the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.1, it will not, and will cause its Subsidiaries and the officers, directors, and employees of TIG and its Subsidiaries (the “TIG Individuals”) not to, and will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause TIG’s and its Subsidiaries’ agents, advisors and controlled affiliates, accountants, legal counsel, and financial advisors (the “TIG Representatives”) not to, initiate, solicit, encourage or knowingly facilitate inquiries or proposals with respect to, or engage in any discussions or negotiations concerning, or provide any confidential or nonpublic information or data concerning its and/or its Subsidiaries business, properties or assets (“TIG Confidential Information”) to, or have any discussions with, any person or entity relating to, any Acquisition Proposal. TIG will immediately cease and cause to be terminated any activities, discussions or negotiations conducted before the date of this Agreement with any persons or entities other than BayCom with respect to any Acquisition Proposal and will use its commercially reasonable best efforts, subject to applicable law, to enforce any confidentiality or similar agreement relating to such an Acquisition Proposal.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 6.7(a), at any time from the date of this Agreement and prior to obtaining the TIG Shareholder Approval, in the event TIG receives an unsolicited Acquisition Proposal and the Board of Directors of TIG determines in good faith that such Acquisition Proposal may constitute a Superior Proposal (as defined below) or is reasonably likely to result in a Superior Proposal, TIG may, and may permit its Subsidiaries and the TIG Individuals and the TIG Representatives to, (i) negotiate the terms of, and enter into, a confidentiality agreement with terms and conditions no less favorable to TIG than the Confidentiality Agreement (an “Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement”), (ii) furnish or cause to be furnished TIG Confidential Information to the person or entity making such Acquisition Proposal pursuant to an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement, and (iii) negotiate and participate in such negotiations or discussions with the person or entity making such Acquisition Proposal concerning such Acquisition Proposal, if the Board of Directors of TIG determines in good faith (following consultation with counsel) that failure to take such actions would result in a violation of its fiduciary duties under applicable law.

(c) The Board of Directors of TIG shall not (nor shall any committee thereof) withdraw or modify, in a manner adverse to BayCom, the TIG Board Recommendation or make or cause to be made any third party or public communication proposing or announcing an intention to withdraw or modify in any manner adverse to BayCom the TIG Board Recommendation (any such action, a “Change in Recommendation”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of Directors of TIG (including any committee thereof) may, at any time prior to obtaining the TIG Shareholder Approval, effect a Change in Recommendation in response to a bona fide written unsolicited Acquisition Proposal made after the date of this Agreement that the Board of Directors of TIG determines in good faith (after consultation with TIG’s outside legal counsel) constitutes a Superior Proposal; provided, however, that the Board of Directors of TIG may not make a Change in Recommendation, or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(f), with respect to an Acquisition Proposal until it has given BayCom at least four (4) business days, following BayCom’s initial receipt of written notice that the Board of Directors of TIG has determined that such Acquisition Proposal is a Superior Proposal and the reasons therefor, to respond to any such Acquisition Proposal and, taking into account any amendment or modification to this Agreement proposed by BayCom, the Board of Directors of TIG determines in good faith (after consultation with counsel) that such Acquisition Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal.

(d) TIG will promptly (and in any event within two (2) business days) advise BayCom in writing following receipt of any Acquisition Proposal and the substance thereof (including the identity of the person or entity making such Acquisition Proposal), and will keep BayCom apprised of any related developments, discussions and negotiations (including the terms and conditions, whether written or oral, of the Acquisition Proposal) on a current basis.

(e) As used in this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings set forth below:

“Acquisition Proposal” means a tender or exchange offer, proposal for a merger, consolidation or other business combination involving TIG or FSB or any proposal or offer to acquire in any manner more than 20% of the voting power in, or more than 20% of the fair market value of the business, assets or deposits of, TIG or FSB, other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

“Superior Proposal” means a written Acquisition Proposal that the Board of Directors of TIG concludes in good faith to be more favorable from a financial point of view to its shareholders than the Merger, (i) after receiving the advice of its financial advisors, (ii) after taking into account the likelihood of consummation of such transaction on the terms set forth therein and (iii) after taking into account all legal (with the advice of outside counsel), financial (including the financing terms of any such proposal), regulatory and other aspects of such proposal and any other relevant factors permitted under applicable law; provided, however, that for purposes of the definition of “Superior Proposal,” the references to “more than 20%” in the definition of Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be references to “a majority”.

6.8 Notification of Certain Matters. Each of the Parties shall give prompt written notice to the other of any fact, event or circumstance known to it that (a) is reasonably likely, individually or taken together with all other facts, events and circumstances known to it, to result in any Material Adverse Effect with respect to it or (b) would cause or constitute a breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained herein. Each of TIG and BayCom shall promptly inform the other in writing upon receiving notice of any claim, demand, cause of action or investigation by any Governmental Entity or third party against, or threatened against, it or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective assets, properties, or any of their respective directors, officers or employees in their individual capacities as such.

6.9 Correction of Information. Each of TIG and BayCom shall promptly correct and supplement in writing any information furnished under this Agreement so that such information shall be correct and complete in all material respects at all times, without taking into account any Material Adverse Effect qualification, and shall include all facts necessary to make such information correct and complete in all material respects at all times; provided, however, that in each case, such disclosure shall not be deemed to cure any breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement or any failure of a condition under Article VII, or to otherwise limit or affect in any way the remedies available hereunder to any party receiving such notice.

6.10 Integration. From and after the date hereof, TIG shall, and shall cause FSB and its and TIG Bank’s directors, officers and employees to, make all commercially reasonable best efforts (without undue disruption to either business) to (i) cooperate in order to permit United Business Bank to train FSB employees who are expected to continue employment with United Business Bank, including excusing such employees from their duties for the purpose of training and orientation by United Business Bank following reasonable advance notice and (ii) cause FSB’s data processing consultants and software providers to, cooperate and assist FSB and United Business Bank in connection with reasonable requests as to scope, timing and content related to the planned electronic and systematic conversion of all applicable data of FSB to the United Business Bank system to occur after the Effective Time, in each case without undue disruption to FSB’s business, during normal business hours and at the expense of BayCom or United Business Bank (not to include FSB’s regular employee payroll).

6.11 Coordination; Integration. Subject to applicable law, during the period from the date hereof until the Effective Time, TIG shall cause the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Credit Officer, and Chief Financial Officer of FSB, as may be appropriate, to assist and confer with the officers of United Business Bank, on a periodic basis, relating to the development, coordination and implementation of the post-Merger operating and integration plans of United Business Bank, as the resulting bank in the Bank Merger.

6.12 Delivery of Agreements. TIG shall cause each of the Voting Agreements and the Non-Compete Agreements to be executed and delivered to BayCom prior to or simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement.

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 the TIG Shareholder Approval, by action of the Board of Directors of a party, as follows:

(a) by the written mutual consent of TIG and BayCom;

(b) by either TIG or BayCom, if any Governmental Entity that must grant a Requisite Regulatory Approval has denied approval of the Merger or the Bank Merger and such denial has become final and nonappealable or any Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction shall have issued a final and nonappealable order, injunction or decree 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 any covenant or agreement in this Agreement required to be performed prior to the Effective Time;

(c) by either TIG or BayCom, if the Merger shall not have been consummated on or before December 31, 2019, 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 covenants and agreements of such party set forth in this Agreement;

(d) by either TIG or BayCom (provided that the terminating party is not then in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained herein), if there shall have been a breach of any of the covenants or agreements or any of the representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement on the part of TIG, in the case of a termination by BayCom, or BayCom, in the case of a termination by TIG, which breach, either individually or in the aggregate, would result in, if occurring or continuing on the Closing Date, the failure of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2 or 7.3, as the case may be, and which is not cured within thirty (30) days following written notice to the party committing such breach or by its nature or timing cannot be cured within such time period;

(e) by BayCom if (i) the Board of Directors of TIG (or any committee thereof) shall have failed to make the TIG Board Recommendation or made a Change in Recommendation or (ii) TIG shall have materially breached any of the provisions set forth in Section 6.7 or (iii) TIG shall have refused to call or hold the TIG Shareholder Meeting (unless this Agreement is terminated prior to the TIG Shareholder Meeting pursuant to Section 8.1(f);

(f) by TIG prior to obtaining the TIG Shareholder Approval in order to enter into an agreement relating to a Superior Proposal in accordance with Section 6.7; provided, however, that TIG has (i) not materially breached the provisions of Section 6.7, and (ii) complied with its payment obligation under Section 8.4(a); or

(g) by either TIG or BayCom, if the provisions of Section 8.1(e) are not applicable and the shareholders of TIG fail to provide the TIG Shareholder Approval at a duly held meeting of shareholders or at an adjournment or postponement thereof.

8.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement by either TIG or BayCom as provided in Section 8.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and have no effect, and none of TIG, BayCom, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of the officers or directors of any of them shall have any liability of any nature whatsoever under this Agreement, or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except that (i) Sections 8.2, 8.3, 8.4, 9.3, 9.4, 9.5, 9.6, 9.7, 9.8, 9.9, 9.10 and 9.11 and the Confidentiality Agreement shall survive any termination of this Agreement, and (ii) if this Agreement is terminated under Section 8.1(d), the non-terminating party shall not, except as provided in Section 8.4(c), be relieved or released from any liabilities or damages arising out of its willful and material breach of any provision of this Agreement.

8.3 Fees and Expenses. Except with respect to costs and expenses of printing and mailing the Proxy Statement, which shall be borne by TIG, and all filing and other fees in connection with any filing with the SEC and Regulatory Agencies, which shall be borne by BayCom, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Merger, the Bank Merger, this Agreement, and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such fees or expenses, whether or not the Merger is consummated.

8.4 Termination Fee.

(a) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(e) or (f), then (i) in the case of termination under Section 8.1(e), TIG shall immediately following such termination pay BayCom an amount equal to $1.2 million (the “Termination Fee”), and (ii) in the case of termination under Section 8.1(f), TIG shall, simultaneously with such termination and as a condition thereof, pay BayCom the Termination Fee, in each case in same-day funds.

(b) If this Agreement is terminated by either party under Section 8.1(g), and prior thereto there has been publicly announced an Acquisition Proposal, then if within one year of such termination TIG or FSB either (A) enters into a definitive agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal or (B) consummates an Acquisition Proposal, TIG shall immediately pay BayCom the Termination Fee set forth in Section 8.4(a) in same-day funds. For purposes of clauses (A) and (B) above, the reference to 20% in the definition of Acquisition Proposal shall be 50%.

(c) The payment of the Termination Fee shall fully discharge TIG from any and all liability under this Agreement and related to the transactions contemplated herein, and BayCom shall not be entitled to any other relief or remedy against TIG. If the Termination Fee is payable pursuant to Section 8.1(e)(ii) or (iii), BayCom shall have the right to pursue any and all remedies available to it against TIG on account of the willful and material breach by TIG of Section 6.7 in lieu of accepting the Termination Fee under Section 8.4(a).

(d) With respect to the Termination Fee provided in this Section, the Parties hereto agree that it would be impracticable or extremely difficult to fix actual damages. Each party acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 8.4 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, the other parties would not enter into this Agreement; accordingly, if the party that owes a payment pursuant to this Section 8.4 fails to promptly pay the amount due pursuant to this Section 8.4, and, in order to obtain such payment, another party commences a suit that results in a final, nonappealable judgment against such owing party for the applicable amount set forth in this Section 8.4 or any portion of such fee, such owing party shall pay to the other party its costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount of the fee at the prime rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the date such payment was required to be made through the date of payment.

8.5 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the Parties, by action taken or authorized by their respective Boards of Directors, at any time before or after approval of the matters presented in connection with Merger by the shareholders of TIG; provided, however, that after any approval of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by the shareholders of TIG, there may not be, without further approval of such shareholders, any amendment of this Agreement that requires further approval by the shareholders of TIG under applicable law. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the Parties.

8.6 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, the Parties, by action taken or authorized by their respective Board of Directors, may, to the extent legally allowed, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other party, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained in this Agreement. Any agreement on the part of a party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such party, but such extension or waiver or failure to insist on strict compliance with an obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

9.4 Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to Articles, Sections, Exhibits or Schedules, such reference shall be to an Article or Section of or Exhibit or Schedule to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” All schedules and exhibits hereto shall be deemed part of this Agreement and included in any reference to this Agreement. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction contained in this Agreement is held by a court or a federal or state regulatory agency of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions and covenants and restrictions contained in this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated. If for any reason such court or regulatory agency determines that any provision, covenant or restriction is invalid, void or unenforceable, it is the express intention of the Parties that such provision, covenant or restriction be enforced to the maximum extent permitted.

9.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic means), all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other party, it being understood that each party need not sign the same counterpart.

9.6 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the documents and the instruments referred to in this Agreement), together with the Confidentiality Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior written, and prior or contemporaneous oral, agreements and understandings, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, other than the Confidentiality Agreement.

9.7 Governing Law, Jurisdiction, Venue and Construction. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California and applicable to contracts made and performed entirely within such state, without regard to any applicable conflicts of law principles or any other principle that could require the application of the application of the law of any other jurisdiction. The Parties hereto agree that any suit, action or proceeding brought by either party to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought in any federal or state court located in the State of Colorado. Each of the Parties hereto submits to the jurisdiction of any such court in any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of, or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and hereby irrevocably waives the benefit of jurisdiction derived from present or future domicile or otherwise in such action or proceeding. Each party hereto irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. This Agreement has been negotiated and prepared by the Parties and their respective counsel. This Agreement shall be fairly interpreted in accordance with its terms and without any strict construction in favor or against either party.

9.8 Publicity. Neither TIG nor BayCom shall, and neither TIG nor BayCom shall permit any of its Subsidiaries to, issue or cause the publication of any press release or other public announcement with respect to, or otherwise make any public statement concerning, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the prior consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of BayCom, in the case of a proposed announcement or statement by TIG, or TIG, in the case of a proposed announcement or statement by BayCom; provided, however, that either party may, without the prior consent of the other party (but after prior consultation with the other party to the extent practicable under the circumstances) issue or cause the publication of any press release or other public announcement to the extent required by law or by the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq.

9.9 Assignment; Third Party Beneficiaries. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned by either of the Parties (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Any purported assignment in contravention hereof shall be null and void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by each of the Parties and their respective successors and assigns. Except for Section 6.6, which is intended to benefit each indemnified person referenced therein, or as otherwise specifically provided herein, this Agreement (including the documents and instruments referred to in this Agreement) is not intended to and does not confer upon any person other than the Parties hereto any rights or remedies under this Agreement.

9.10 Specific Performance; Time of the Essence. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled specific performance of the terms hereof, without the necessity of demonstrating irreparable harm or posting of any bond or security, in addition to any other remedies to which they are entitled at law or equity. Time is of the essence for performance of the agreements, covenants and obligations of the Parties herein.

9.11 Disclosure Schedule. Before entry into this Agreement, each party delivered to the other a schedule (each a “Disclosure Schedule”) that sets forth, among other things, items the disclosure of which is necessary or appropriate either in response to an express disclosure requirement contained in a provision hereof or as an exception to one or more representations or warranties of the disclosing party contained in Article III or Article IV, as applicable, and, in the case of TIG, to one or more of its covenants contained herein; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (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 and (b) the mere inclusion of an item as an exception to a representation or warranty shall not be deemed an admission that such item represents a material exception or material fact, event or circumstance. For purposes of this Agreement, “Previously Disclosed” means information set forth by a party in the applicable paragraph of its Disclosure Schedule, or any other paragraph of its Disclosure Schedule (so long as it is reasonably clear from the context that the disclosure in such other paragraph of its Disclosure Schedule is also applicable to the section of this Agreement in question).

9.12 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT: (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (II) EACH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (III) EACH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (IV) EACH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.12.
