In such case, to the extent possible, (a) the beneficial interest in or to such Non-Assigned Assets (collectively, the " Beneficial Rights ") shall in any event pass at the Closing to Riverview under this Agreement; and (b) pending such Consent, Riverview shall discharge, as agent for MBank, the obligations of MBank under such Beneficial Rights to the extent such obligations are Assumed Liabilities, and MBank shall act as Riverview's agent in the receipt of any benefits, rights or interest received from the Beneficial Rights.

Riverview will provide MBank with access to all applicable Records reasonably necessary in order for MBank to verify the Post Closing Transfer Calculation and the Final Transfer Amount. The determination of the Final Transfer Amount shall be final and binding on the parties hereto on the thirtieth (30th) calendar day after receipt by MBank

of the Post Closing Transfer Calculation, unless MBank shall notify Riverview in writing of its disagreement with any amount included therein or omitted therefrom.

(b) If MBank and Riverview are unable to agree upon the Post-Closing Transfer Calculation, the disputed items or amounts concerning the Post-Closing Transfer Calculation shall be determined by RSM, unless Riverview and MBank agree to a different accounting firm (the " Accounting Firm ") within fourteen (14) days following the submission of such disputed items or amounts to the Accounting Firm and such determination shall be final and binding. In making such calculation, the Accounting Firm may only consider those items or amounts in the Post-Closing Transfer Calculation as to which MBank and Riverview have disagreed. The fees of the Accounting Firm incurred in determining the Post-Closing Transfer Calculation will be paid equally by MBank and Riverview.

3.04. Final Settlement. On the Business Day immediately following the day on which the Post-Closing Transfer Calculation shall have been finally determined pursuant to the terms of Section 3.03 (the " Final Settlement Date "), if the Final Transfer Amount is greater than the Estimated Transfer Amount, then Riverview shall pay the difference to MBank. If the Final Transfer Amount is less than the Estimated Transfer Amount, then MBank shall pay the difference to Riverview. In each case such payment shall be made within three (3) Business Days after the Final Settlement Date by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by MBank to Riverview or to an account designated in writing by Riverview to MBank, as applicable. Any payment pursuant to this Section 3.04 (the " Final Transfer Payment ") shall include interest on such amount for the number of days from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the date of payment at a rate equal to the effective Federal Funds rate as published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System on the Final Settlement Date.

3.05. Purchase Price Allocation. The allocation of the consideration paid by Riverview is intended to comply with the allocation method required by Section 1060 of the Code. The parties will each report the federal, state and local and other tax consequences of the P&A Transaction (including the filing of Internal Revenue Service (" IRS ") Form 8594) in a manner consistent with such allocation and take no position in any tax filing, return, proceeding, audit or otherwise which is inconsistent with such allocation. Within thirty (30) days following the Closing Date, Riverview shall provide to MBank a schedule showing Riverview's proposed allocation of the consideration payable with respect to the Transferred Assets. Riverview, on the one hand, and MBank, on the other, shall agree upon such allocation within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date; provided that if Riverview and MBank are unable to agree upon an allocation schedule within such sixty (60) day period, the allocation schedule shall be prepared by the Accounting Firm. The fees of the Accounting Firm incurred in preparing the allocation schedule shall be paid equally by Riverview and MBank.

3.06. Prorations. The parties intend that MBank will own the Transferred Assets and be responsible for the Assumed Liabilities for its own account until the close of business on the Closing Date, and that Riverview will own the Transferred Assets and be responsible for the Assumed Liabilities for its own account on and after the close of business on the Closing Date. Thus, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, items of expense and income directly attributable to the Transferred Assets and Assumed Liabilities, other than any general overhead expenses of MBank, will be prorated as of the close of business on the Closing Date, whether or not such adjustment would normally be made as of such time, including payments due or made on any Assumed Contracts. The aggregate net amount of such proration shall result in an adjustment (the " Pro-Rata Adjustment ") in the calculation of the Estimated Transfer Amount and the Final Transfer Amount as provided for in Section 3.02 and Section 3.04, respectively. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all adjustments with respect to the Owned

Real Property shall be made in accordance with the prevailing settlement practices for real estate closings in the State of Oregon.

3.07. Custodial Accounts. At the Closing, MBank will resign as custodian with respect to any individual retirement account as to which MBank is custodian (the " Custodial Account "). At the Closing, MBank will designate and appoint Riverview as successor custodian under each such Custodial Account. Riverview covenants and agrees that it will, following its designation or appointment as successor custodian under the Custodial Accounts, promptly and faithfully perform, fulfill, and discharge each of the obligations required to be performed by the custodian with respect to such Custodial Accounts pursuant to Law, or pursuant to the governing documents establishing such Custodial Account.

In the event any Phase I discloses any potential environmental condition that in the reasonable belief of Riverview warrants further review or investigation, Riverview may within ten (10) Business Days of receipt by Riverview of the Phase I, notify MBank of its intention to order a Phase II environmental report (" Phase II ") conducted by an independent environmental investigation and testing firm selected by Riverview. MBank shall, within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such notice from Riverview, either consent in writing to Riverview ordering a Phase II or notify Riverview that they are treating the Owned Real Property and the Personal Property and Assumed Contracts associated with the Owned Property as Excluded Assets.

In the event that Riverview and MBank fail to reach such agreement within ninety (90) days following the date of this Agreement, Riverview may treat the Owned Real Property and the Personal Property and Assumed Contracts associated with the Owned Property as Excluded Assets by giving MBank written notice.

10.03. Indemnity Procedure. All claims for indemnification by a party seeking to be indemnified (an " Indemnified Party ") under this ArticleX shall be asserted and resolved as follows:

(a) In the event that any claim or demand for which MBank and Merchants Bancorp or Riverview and Riverview Bancorp, as applicable (as the case may be, the " Indemnifying Parties ") would be liable to an Indemnified Party hereunder is asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party by a third party, including a Governmental Entity (a " Third Party Claim "), such Indemnified Party shall with reasonable promptness give notice (the " Claim Notice ") to the Indemnifying Parties of such claim or demand, specifying the nature of and specific basis for such claim or demand and the amount or the estimated amount thereof to the extent then feasible (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such claim or demand). Failure to provide a Claim Notice of any such claim or demand shall not affect the Indemnifying Parties duties or obligations under this ArticleX, except to the extent the Indemnifying Parties are materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Parties shall have ten (10)days from the delivery or mailing of the Claim Notice (the " Notice Period ") to notify the Indemnified Party (i)whether or not they dispute the liability of the Indemnifying Parties to the Indemnified Party hereunder with respect to such claim or demand, and (ii)whether or not they desire, at their cost and expense, to defend the Indemnified Party against such claim or demand; provided, however, that any Indemnified Party is hereby authorized, but is not obligated, prior to and during the Notice Period, to file any motion, answer or other pleading that it shall deem necessary or appropriate to protect its interests or those of the Indemnifying Parties, and provided further, that in respect of a claim or demand for Taxes no such right of the Indemnifying Parties to defend shall apply unless and to the extent the Indemnified Party consents. If the Indemnifying Parties notify the Indemnified Party within the Notice Period that they desire to defend the Indemnified Party against such claim or demand, the Indemnifying Parties shall, subject to the preceding sentence and the last sentence of this paragraph, have the right to control the defense against the claim by all appropriate proceedings and any settlement negotiations; provided, however, that to the satisfaction of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Parties shall indemnify and secure the Indemnified Party against such contested claims by posting a bond or otherwise. If the Indemnifying Parties undertake the defense of the Third Party Claim, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim at its own expense. If the Indemnifying Parties fail to respond to the Indemnified Party within the Notice Period or after electing to defend fail to commence or diligently pursue such defense, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to undertake or continue the defense of and to compromise or settle (exercising reasonable business judgment) the claim or other matter, all on behalf, for the account and at the risk of the Indemnifying Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the basis of the proceeding relates to a condition or operations which existed or were conducted both prior to and after the Closing

Date, each applicable party shall have the same right to participate in the proceeding without any single party having the right of control.

(b) I f requested by the Indemnifying Parties, the Indemnified Party agrees, at the expense of the Indemnifying Parties, to reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Parties and their counsel in contesting any Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Parties elect to contest.

(c) If any Indemnified Party should have a claim or demand against the Indemnifying Parties hereunder that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall send a Claim Notice with respect to such claim or demand to the Indemnifying Parties. Failure to provide a Claim Notice of any such claim or demand shall not affect the duties or obligations of the Indemnifying Parties under this ArticleX, except to the extent the Indemnifying Parties are materially prejudiced thereby. If the Indemnifying Parties dispute such claim, such dispute shall be resolved by mutual agreement of the Indemnifying Parties and Indemnified Party or by litigation in an appropriate court of competent jurisdiction.

10.04. Limitations on Indemnity.

(a) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither MBank and Merchants Bancorp, on the one hand, nor Riverview and Riverview Bancorp, on the other hand, shall be required to indemnify the Riverview Indemnified Parties or the MBank Indemnified Parties, as applicable, in respect of any Damages suffered by the Riverview Indemnified Parties or the MBank Indemnified Parties, as applicable, unless the aggregate amount of the Indemnifying Parties obligation under this ArticleX exceeds an amount equal to $75,000 (the " Threshold Amount "), in which case the applicable Indemnifying Parties will be required to indemnify the Riverview Indemnified Parties or the MBank Indemnified Parties, as applicable, for all Damages regardless of the Threshold Amount. Notwithstanding, the foregoing, the Threshold Amount will not apply to Third Party Claims.

(b) The aggregate amount of Damages actually paid to the Riverview Indemnified Parties or MBank Indemnified Parties, as applicable, under this ArticleX shall not exceed $5.0 million, except with respect to Third Party Claims.

(c) No indemnification will be provided by Indemnifying Parties for any claim for indemnification which is made more than three (3)years following the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at the end of such period there shall be pending any indemnification claim by a Person, such Person shall continue to have the right to seek such indemnification with respect to such claim notwithstanding such expiration.

(d) No Indemnified Party shall be required to (i)incur any material out-of-pocket costs or expenses or pay any other material amounts to third parties, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Parties have acknowledged in writing that such costs, expenses or other amounts constitute indemnifiable Damages hereunder, (ii)make any claims under existing insurance policies, or (iii)take any other action to the extent such action would adversely affect such Indemnified Party in any material respect.

10.05. Exclusive Remedy. After the Closing Date, this ArticleX shall provide the exclusive remedy for any of the matters addressed herein or other claims arising out of this Agreement, provided that the foregoing shall not be deemed to limit the rights of any party to seek equitable remedies (including specific performance or injunctive relief) or seek Damages in the case of any fraud, willful or knowing breach or misrepresentation.
