Meeting of Stockholders, in order to eliminate the vacancy in that class created by the retirement of Chad T. Brownstein as a director of the Company and the Bank, as reported by the Company in its Current Report on Form <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">8-K</FONT> filed on February&nbsp;8, 2017. The committees of the Boards to which Mr. Wycoff will be named have not yet been determined. </P>

California for over three years and we continue to believe the Company has an extraordinary opportunity to build a very successful community bank in the California markets it serves. As a long term community bank investor we recognize that it takes
time and talent to build a strong and profitable community bank. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;Patriot and I support the Board&#146;s recent actions and look forward to working
with the Boards to help management fulfill the promise of being California&#146;s Bank. As Patriot has always done with our portfolio companies, we will affirmatively support the collective wisdom of the Boards &#150; including my independent views
as a Director.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company recently announced a series of actions intended to enhance corporate governance practices and strengthen the
independence and expertise of the Board. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;The actions announced recently are a testament to the Board&#146;s focus on ensuring we have the right
