Section 2.1 Annual Meeting. The regular annual meeting of the shareholders to elect directors and transact whatever other business as may properly come before the meeting, shall be held within each calendar year at the principal office of the Association, or such other place as shall be specified in the notice of such meeting, on such day and at such hour as may be fixed by the Board.

Notice of such meeting shall be mailed, postage prepaid, at least 10 days prior to the date thereof, addressed to each shareholder at his or her address appearing on the books of the Association. Where the Association is a wholly-owned subsidiary, the sole shareholder is permitted to waive notice of the annual shareholder’s meeting.

Notice of meeting need not be given to any shareholder who submits a signed waiver of notice, in person or by proxy, whether before or after the meeting. The attendance of any shareholder at a meeting, in person or by proxy, without protesting prior to the conclusion of the meeting, the lack of notice of such meeting, shall constitute a waiver of notice by such shareholder.

Section 2.2. Special Meetings. Except as otherwise specifically provided by statute, special meetings of the shareholders may be called for any purpose, including amending the Articles of Association or By-Laws at any time by the Board of Directors or the holders of a majority of all shares entitled to vote.

Every such special meeting, unless otherwise provided by law, shall be called by mailing a notice, postage prepaid, not less than 10 days prior to the date fixed for the meeting, to each shareholder of record entitled to vote, stating the purpose of the meeting. Where the Association is a wholly-owned subsidiary, the sole shareholder is permitted to waive notice of the special shareholder’s meeting.

Section 2.3. Action of Shareholders Without a Meeting. Any action required to be taken at a meeting of the Shareholders or any action which may be taken at a meeting of the Shareholders may be taken without a meeting if a consent in writing setting forth the action so to be taken is signed by a majority of all shares held and entitled to vote, and is filed in the minutes of the proceedings of the Association. Such consent shall have the same effect as a unanimous vote of the Shareholders.

Section 2.4. Nominations of Directors. Nominations for election to the Board may be made by the Board or by any shareholder of any outstanding class of capital stock of the Association entitled to vote for the election of directors.

Section 2.5. Proxies. Shareholders may vote at any meeting of the shareholders by proxies duly authorized in writing, but no officer or employee of this Association shall act as proxy. Proxies shall be valid only for one meeting, to be specified therein, and any adjournments of such meeting. Proxies shall be dated and filed with the records of the meeting. Proxies with facsimile signatures may be used and unexecuted proxies may be counted upon receipt of a written confirmation from the shareholder. Proxies meeting the above requirements submitted at any time during a meeting shall be accepted.

Section 2.6. Quorum. A majority of the outstanding capital stock, represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of shareholders, unless otherwise provided by law, but less than a quorum may adjourn any meeting, from time to time, and the meeting may be held, as adjourned, without further notice. A majority of the votes cast shall decide every question or matter submitted to the shareholders at any meeting, unless otherwise provided by law or by the Articles of Association.

Section 3.2. Number. The Board shall consist of no less than five nor more than twenty-five persons, unless the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency has granted the Association a waiver of the maximum twenty-five director limit. The exact number is to be fixed and determined from time to time by resolution of a majority of the full Board of

Directors or by resolution of a majority of the shareholders at any annual or special meeting thereof.

Section 3.3. Term of Office. Directors shall hold offices until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until their successors are duly elected and qualified.

Section 3.4. Organization Meeting. The secretary, upon determining the result of any election, shall notify the directors-elect of their election and request that the Board convene for the purpose of organizing the new Board and electing officers of the Association for the succeeding year. Such meeting shall be held on the day of the election or as soon thereafter as practicable, and, in any event, within thirty days thereof. If, at the time fixed for such meeting, there shall not be a quorum, the directors present may adjourn the meeting, from time to time, until a quorum is obtained.

Section 3.5 Qualifying Shares. Each director shall own common or preferred stock of the Association or of a holding company, directly or indirectly, owning the Association, with an aggregate par, fair market, or equity value of $1,000.

Notice of meeting need not be given to any director who submits a signed waiver of notice, in person or by proxy, whether before or after the meeting. The attendance of any director at a meeting, in person or by proxy, without protesting prior to the conclusion of the meeting of the lack of notice of such meeting, shall constitute a waiver of notice by such director.

Section 3.7. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Board may be called by the Chairman or the President of the Association, or upon the written request of any two Directors. Each member of the Board shall be given notice stating the time and place by telephone, letter, facsimile, electronic means, or in person. Special meetings may be held either within or without the State of California as determined by the Board.

Section 3.8. Quorum. A majority of the entire Board then in office shall constitute a quorum at any meeting, but a lesser number may adjourn any meeting, from time to time, and the meeting may be held, as adjourned, without further notice. If the number of directors present at the meeting is reduced below the number that would constitute a quorum, no business may be transacted.

Section 3.9. Removal. Any one or more of the directors may be removed for cause by action of the Board. Any or all of the directors may be removed with or without cause by vote of the shareholders.

Section 3.10. Vacancies.

A vacancy that will occur at a specific later date (by reason of a resignation effective at a later date) may be filled before the vacancy occurs, but the new director may not take office until the vacancy occurs.

Section 3.11. Compensation. Members of the Board, except members who are officers of the Association or any of its affiliates, shall be entitled to receive such compensation and such fees for attendance as the Board shall fix from time to time.
