The Borrower shall pay to the Lender the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all of the Term Loan as follows:

(B) one final installment in the amount of all unpaid principal of the Term Loan due and payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date.

The Borrower shall pay to the Lender the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all of the Subordinated Debt as follows:

(B) one final installment in the amount of all unpaid principal of the Subordinated Debt due and payable on the Subordinated Debt Maturity Date.

(iii) General. All amounts outstanding from time to time under each Note shall bear interest on the basis of a 360-day year, counting the actual number of days elapsed.

(b) Usury. The parties hereto intend to conform strictly to applicable usury laws as in effect from time to time during the terms of the Loans. Accordingly, if the transaction contemplated hereby would be usurious under applicable law (including the laws of the United States of America, or of any other jurisdiction whose laws may be mandatorily applicable), then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any Note, the Borrower and the Lender agree that the aggregate of all consideration that constitutes interest under applicable law that is contracted for, charged or received under or in connection with this Agreement shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable law, and any excess shall be credited to the Borrower by the Lender (or if such consideration shall have been paid in full, such excess refunded to the Borrower by the Lender).

(c) Default Rate of Interest. Upon the occurrence of any Default (as such term is defined in Section 5.1), except for a Default pursuant to Section 5.1(k), the rate of interest on the Notes (the “Default Rate of Interest”) shall be three percent (3%) above the interest rate otherwise applicable from the date of occurrence, and during the continuance, of the Default; provided, further, that upon the occurrence of a Default under Section 5.1(k) hereof, the Default

Rate of Interest shall be six percent (6%) above the interest rate otherwise applicable from the date, and during the continuance, of the Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 1.4(c) or elsewhere in this Agreement, the Default Rate of Interest shall apply with respect to a Default relating to the Subordinated Debt if, and only if, such Default occurs pursuant to Section 5.1(a) or such Default is one with respect to which the Lender would be entitled to declare the Subordinated Debenture immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 5.7 of this Agreement.

(d) Application of Payments. Subject to Section 1.4(f)(ii), all payments received by the Lender from or on behalf of the Borrower shall first be applied to amounts due under Section 1.8, second to accrued interest under the Subordinated Debenture, third to accrued interest under the Term Note, fourth to principal amounts outstanding under the Subordinated Debenture and then to principal amounts outstanding under the Term Note; provided, however, subject to Section 5.7, that after the date on which the final payment of principal with respect to any Loan is due or following and during any Default, all payments received on account of the Borrower’s Liabilities (as defined below) shall be applied in whatever order, combination and amounts as the Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, decides, to all costs, expenses and other indebtedness owing to the Lender. No amount paid or prepaid on the Term Note or Subordinated Debenture may be reborrowed.

(e) Method of Payment. The Borrower will pay to the Lender in immediately available funds, at its office at the address as specified in Section 6.3, or such other address as the Lender shall specify in writing, all amounts payable to it in respect of the principal of, or interest on, each Note then held by the Lender, without any presentation of any such Note. The Lender may, if it so determines, make notation of each payment of principal on the appropriate Note, and it will promptly make such notation if the Borrower shall so request. The Lender may also, if it so determines, make notation on the face of any Note or elsewhere of any modification, amendment, alteration, guaranty or assumption of such Note. The aggregate unpaid principal amount shown on the face of, or elsewhere on, such Note shall be rebuttable presumptive evidence of the principal amount owing and unpaid on such Note. The failure to record any such amount on such schedule, however, shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any Note.

Prepayment. The Borrower may, upon at least one Business Day’s notice to the Lender, prepay, without a prepayment fee, all or a portion of the principal amount outstanding under the Subordinated Debt or the Term Loan by paying the principal amount to be prepaid, together with unpaid accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment; provided, however, that the Borrower may not prepay any portion of the principal outstanding under the Subordinated Debt or the Term Loan prior to the date that is two (2) years after the Closing Date of the Subordinated Debt or the Term Loan, respectively under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the date of any prepayment pursuant to this Section 1.4(f) shall be considered to be the Business Day following receipt of the prepayment by the Lender unless such prepayment is received by the Lender before 1:00 p.m. (Dallas, Texas time) and is made in immediately available funds. In any event, the Term Loan may not be prepaid without the written consent and approval of the Lender, which consent and approval may be withheld at the Lender’s sole and absolute discretion; provided, however, that if all amounts outstanding under all other indebtedness owing

from the Borrower to the Lender have been repaid and the Borrower has satisfied in full all other financial obligations to the Lender, then the Borrower may prepay the Term Loan by paying the principal amount to be prepaid together with unpaid accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment.

(g) Crediting of Payments; Payments to be Made on Business Days. The date of any payment under the Notes, including any prepayment, shall be considered to be the Business Day following receipt of the payment by the Lender unless such payment is received by the Lender before 1:00 p.m. (Dallas, Texas time) and is made in immediately available funds. If any payment to be made by the Borrower hereunder shall become due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing any interest in respect of such payment.

(h) Legal Tender. All payments hereunder shall be made in coin or currency which at the time of payment is legal tender in the United States of America for public and private debts.

1.5 [reserved].

1.6 Determination of Interest Rate on Advances. The Lender’s determination of the Prime Rate from time to time as provided in this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of readily demonstrable error.

1.7 Collateral. The Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement, the Term Note and any other Loan Documents (other than the Subordinated Debenture) (collectively, the “Borrower’s Liabilities”), shall be secured by a pledge of the Bank Shares pursuant to the terms of a Pledge and Security Agreement dated as of the Closing Date between the Lender and Borrower, in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto (the “Pledge Agreement”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, the obligations of the Borrower to the Lender under the Subordinated Debenture shall be unsecured.

1.8 Expenses. Whether or not the Loans are made, the Borrower will (a) pay all reasonable costs and expenses of the Lender incident to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement including, but not limited to, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution of the Loan Documents, or in connection with any modification, amendment, alteration or enforcement of this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Lender’s expenses and the charges and disbursements to counsel retained by the Lender, and (b) pay and save the Lender and all other holders of the Notes harmless against any and all liability with respect to amounts payable as a result of (i) any taxes, other than income tax obligations of the Lender, that may be determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents or any modification, amendment or alteration of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents, (ii) any interest or penalties resulting from nonpayment or delay in payment by the Borrower of such expenses, charges, disbursements, liabilities or taxes, and (iii) any income taxes in respect of any reimbursement by the Borrower for any of such violations, taxes, interests or penalties paid by the Lender. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 1.8 shall survive the repayment in full of the

Notes. Any of the foregoing amounts incurred by the Lender and not paid by the Borrower upon demand shall bear interest from the date incurred at the rate of interest in effect or announced by the Lender from time to time as its prime rate of interest plus three percent (3%) per annum and shall be deemed part of the Borrower’s Liabilities hereunder.

1.9 The Closing. The initial funding of the Loans (the “Closing”) will occur at the offices of Hunton & Xxxxxxxx LLP, counsel to the Lender, at 0000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000, at 10:00 a.m. on December 24, 2008 (the “Closing Date”), or at such other place or time or on such other date as the parties hereto may agree, by disbursing the proceeds of the Loans in accordance with the Borrower’s written instructions received at least one Business Day prior to Closing (the “Instructions”).

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

To induce the Lender to make the Loan provided for herein, the Borrower represents and warrants, and covenants, as set forth below.

(1) Borrower is a Texas corporation and registered bank holding company, and Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries are each duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its organization and is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing under the laws of each state in which the ownership of its properties and the nature and extent of the activities transacted by it makes such qualification necessary. (2) Borrower has no Subsidiary other than those listed on Schedule 3.1 and each Subsidiary is owned by Borrower or another of its Subsidiaries in the percentage set forth on Schedule 3.1. The deposit accounts of the Bank are insured by the FDIC. The Borrower and the Bank have made payment of all franchise and similar taxes as are due and payable as of the date of this Agreement in the State of Texas and in all of the respective jurisdictions in which they are incorporated, chartered or qualified, and so far as such taxes are due and payable at the date of this Agreement.

3.2 Financial Statements. All financial statements delivered to the Lender are complete and correct and fairly present, in accordance with GAAP, the financial condition and the results of operations of Borrower and each Financial Institution Subsidiary of Borrower, as of the dates and for the periods indicated (the “Financial Statements”). Nothing has occurred in the assets, liabilities, financial condition, business or affairs of the Borrower or any of the Financial Institution Subsidiaries since the dates of such financial statements dated as of December 31, 2007. Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to any instrument or agreement materially and adversely affecting its financial condition, business or affairs.

This Agreement, the Notes, and the other Loan Documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Borrower and the Financial Institution Subsidiaries and are valid and binding agreements of the Borrower and the Financial Institution Subsidiaries, enforceable according to their terms, except as the enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and

subject to general principles of equity. The execution, delivery and performance of the Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents and the obligations that they impose, do not violate any legal requirement, conflict with any material agreement by which any party is bound, or require any Governmental Authorizations, as defined below, or other third party which has not been promptly obtained in connection with the execution and delivery of the Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

3.4 Litigation. There is no litigation, claim, investigation, administrative proceeding or similar action (including those for unpaid taxes) against Borrower or any of the Financial Institution Subsidiaries or any other obligor pending or threatened, and no other event has occurred which may in any one case or in the aggregate materially adversely affect Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries, any other obligor or any of their respective financial conditions and properties, other than litigation, claims, or other events, if any, that have been disclosed to and acknowledged by the Lender in writing.

3.5 Title and Rights. Borrower and each of the Financial Institution Subsidiaries have good and marketable title to its properties, free and clear of any lien except for liens disclosed to the Lender prior to December 15, 2008, those permitted by the Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Borrower and each of the Financial Institution Subsidiaries possess all permits, licenses, patents, trademarks and copyrights required to conduct their respective businesses.

3.6 Regulation U; Business Purpose. None of the proceeds of any of the Loans will be used to purchase or carry, directly or indirectly, any margin stock or for any other purpose which would make this credit a “purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulation U or not an exempt transaction under Regulation U. All Loans will be used for business purposes and for the express purposes that Borrower has informed the Lender that it will use the credit. None of the stock of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries is margin stock as defined in Regulation U.

3.7 Capital Stock of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries. (1) All of the issued and outstanding capital stock of each of the Financial Institution Subsidiaries (the “Borrower’s Current Subsidiaries’ Shares”) has been duly authorized, legally and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and the Borrower’s Current Subsidiaries’ Shares are owned by Borrower, free and clear of all liens, except as may exist for the benefit of the Lender; (2) none of the Borrower’s Current Subsidiaries’ Shares have been issued in violation of any shareholder’s preemptive rights; (3) there are, as of the date of this Agreement, no outstanding options, rights, warrants, plans, understandings or other agreements or instruments obligating Borrower to issue, deliver or sell, or cause to be issued, delivered or sold, or contemplating or providing for the issuance of, additional shares of the capital stock of any of the Financial Institution Subsidiaries, or obligating Borrower or any of the Financial Institution Subsidiaries to grant, extend or enter into any such agreement or commitment; and (4) upon consummation of the Bank Merger, the Bank Shares which have been pledged to Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and the Pledge Agreement shall constitute the only outstanding equity interests of the only depository institution subsidiary of the Borrower.

3.8 Regulatory Enforcement Actions. None of Borrower or any of the Financial Institution Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers or directors, is now operating under or

will operate under any agreements, memoranda, or written commitments by the Borrower or by any of the Financial Institution Subsidiaries (other than restrictions of general application) imposed by any Governmental Agency, nor to the knowledge of Borrower, are any such restrictions threatened or agreements, memoranda or commitments being sought by any Governmental Agency.

3.9 Reserve for Possible Loan and Lease Losses. The reserves for possible loan and lease losses shown in the most recently delivered financial statements pursuant to Section 4.2(a)(i) (“Reserve for Possible Loan and Lease Losses”), with respect to the Borrower and in the Reports of Condition and Income (“Call Reports”) of the Bank are adequate in all respects to provide for losses, net of recoveries relating to loans previously charged off, on loans and leases outstanding as of the date of such statements or reports, as of the date of such statements or reports. To the Borrower’s knowledge, the aggregate principal amount of loans contained in the loan portfolio of the Bank in excess of the corresponding reserve is fully collectible.

3.10 No Liens. None of Borrower or any of the Financial Institution Subsidiaries is a party to any agreement, instrument or undertaking (other than this Agreement) or subject to any other restriction pursuant to which the Borrower or any of the Financial Institution Subsidiaries has placed, or will be required to place (or under which any other Person may place), a lien upon any of its properties securing indebtedness, either upon demand or upon the happening of a condition, with or without any demand.

3.11 Compliance. The Borrower and each of the Financial Institution Subsidiaries has filed all applicable tax returns and paid all taxes shown thereon to be due, except those for which extensions have been obtained and those which are being contested in good faith and for which adequate reserves have been established.

None of the Borrower or any of the Financial Institution Subsidiaries is in default in the payment of any other indebtedness or under any material agreement to which it is a party. The parties have obtained all consents of and registered with all Governmental Agencies and other Persons required to execute, deliver and perform the Loan Documents.

3.12 Restrictions on the Borrower. Neither the Borrower nor the Bank is a party to, nor is bound by, any contract or agreement or instrument, or subject to any charter or other corporate restriction materially and adversely affecting its financial condition, business or operations.

3.13 No Claims Against the Bank. There are no defenses or counterclaims, offsets or adverse claims, demands or actions of any kind, personal or otherwise that the Borrower and the Financial Institution Subsidiaries or any other obligor could assert with respect to this Agreement or the Loans.

3.14 Statements by Others. All statements made by or on behalf of the Borrower and any of the Financial Institution Subsidiaries in connection with any Loan Document constitute the joint and several representations and warranties of the Borrower under this Agreement.

3.15 Continuing Representations. Each request for an advance or renewal of an Advance under any of the Loans shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that all of the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of such date with the same effect as though such representations and warranties had been made on such date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties are stated to expressly relate solely to an earlier date.

3.16 Environment. The Borrower and each of the Financial Institution Subsidiaries have complied in all material respects with applicable legal requirements in each instance in which any of them have generated, handled, used, stored or disposed of any hazardous or toxic waste or substance regulated by any governmental authority, on or off its premises (whether or not owned by any of them). To the knowledge of Borrower none of the Borrower or any of the Financial Institution Subsidiaries has any material contingent liability for non-compliance with environmental or hazardous waste laws. None of the Borrower or any of the Financial Institution Subsidiaries has received any notice that it or any of its property or operations does not comply with, or that any Governmental Agency is investigating its compliance with, any environmental or hazardous waste laws.

3.17 Solvency. After giving effect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Borrower and the Financial Institution Subsidiaries have capital sufficient to carry on their respective business and transactions and all businesses and transactions in which they are about to engage, and each is solvent and able to pay its debts as they mature. No transfer of property is being made and no indebtedness is being incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors of the Borrower or the Financial Institution Subsidiaries.

3.18 Subordination. The TP Junior Subordinated Debentures are expressly subordinate and junior in all respects (including, without limitation, with respect to the right of payment) to the Loans to the extent provided in the TP Indenture. The Loans constitute senior indebtedness pursuant to the terms of the TP Indenture.

3.19 Pledged Stock. The Bank Shares pledged pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Pledge Agreement have been issued, executed and granted in compliance with all applicable laws or regulations, including, without limitation, Art. 2.02(9) of the Texas Business Corporation Act.

3.20 No Misstatement. No information, exhibit, report or document furnished by the Borrower to the Lender in connection with the negotiation or execution of this Agreement or the making of any Loan contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading in light of the circumstances when made or furnished to the Lender.

3.21 Investment Status. Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is an “investment company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940.
