under which Original Lessor leased to Original Lessee, the real property located at the address
commonly known as 11805 Dublin Boulevard, Dublin, California (APN 941-1560-007-01) and legally

B.Original Lessor and Community First National Bank, as successor-in-interest to Original Lessee,

C.Lessor succeeded to the interest of Original Lessor pursuant to that certain Assignment and
Assumption of Leases dated May 9, 2007, under which Lessor acquired all of Original Lessor’s right,
title and interest in, to and under the Original Lease, as amended.
D.Lessor and Lessee subsequently entered into that certain Second Amendment to Land Lease dated
as of December 18, 2007 (the “Second Amendment”).
E.The Original Lease, the First Amendment and the Second Amendment shall hereinafter be
collectively referred to as the “Lease”.
F.The term of the Lease is set to expire on October 31, 2022, and Lessor and Lessee desire to amend
the Lease to alter certain provisions thereof upon the terms and conditions set forth below.
NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable considerations, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby
acknowledged, Lessor and Lessee agree as follows.
1.Term. The term of this Lease shall be extended for an additional period of five (5) years commencing
on November 1, 2022 and expiring on October 31, 2027 (the “Extended Term”).
2.Rent. Commencing on November 1, 2022, Lessee shall pay to Lessor annual rent in the amount of

Exhibit A
Third Amendment to Land Lease July 19, 2022
Between the City of Dublin and U.S. National Bank Assoc. Page 2 of 5
4. Surrender. The parties deem Lessee to be the owner of the approximately 3,100 square foot
building and improvements located on the Premises (the “Improvements”) so long as the Lease
remains in effect. Upon expiration of this Lease, Lessee shall surrender the Premises to Lessor and
leave any Improvements in their as-is, where-is condition. Lessee, at its sole cost and expense, shall
remove Lessee’s signs, including directional signage, furniture, equipment (other than building
service equipment, such as HVAC equipment), appliances, trade fixtures, personal property and
inventory at the expiration of the Lease Term. The Improvements and the appurtenances thereto
remaining upon the Premises after surrender thereof shall automatically become the property of the
Lessor from and after the expiration of the Lease term. Upon the expiration of this Lease, or the
sooner termination thereof, upon Lessor’s written request, Lessee agrees to execute, acknowledge,
and deliver to Lessor a proper instrument in writing drafted by Lessor, at its sole expense, releasing,
and quitclaiming to Lessor all right, title, and interest of Lessee in and to the Premises and all
improvements thereon. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Lessor must provide Lessee
with written notice of any claim or demand relating to this Section or the surrender condition of the
Premises on or before the thirtieth (30th) day after the earlier of the day on which (i) Lessee
surrenders the Premises to Lessor, or (ii) the Lease term expires or the Lease otherwise terminates.
If Lessor fails to provide such notice, Lessor shall be deemed to have waived all claims against
Lessee for any damages that arise out of or money owed as a result of Lessee’s surrender of the
Premises. Nothing by way of this section is intended to relieve Lessee of its obligation to surrender
the Premises at the expiration of the Lease Term. This Section 4, is intended to, and expressly does,
replace and supersede Section 10, Option to Purchase Building of the Original Land Lease.
5. Operating. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease, Lessee shall not be
required to operate at the Premises and shall not be subject to any operating restrictions within any
distance or geographic area surrounding the Premises.
6. Self-Insurance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease, Lessee shall have
the right to self-insure, in whole or in part, for any insurance requirement contained in the Lease.
7. Confidentiality. Lessor acknowledges that Lessee is a federally regulated financial institution that
must comply with the safeguards for customer information contained in the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act
and regulations promulgated pursuant to the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act. Lessee agrees to take
reasonable measures to protect its confidential and proprietary information, including but not limited
to Lessee’s customer, commercial or technical information (collectively, “Confidential Information”).
In certain situations contemplated under this Lease, Lessor may have access to the Premises and,
therefore, to Lessee’s Confidential Information. Lessor hereby agrees that it shall not reproduce or
disclose any of Lessee’s Confidential Information to any third party nor may it remove any such
Confidential Information from the Premises. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease,
upon expiration of this Lease, if any Confidential Information remains on the Premises, Lessor shall
either return the same to Lessee or destroy it. If Lessor or any of its representatives or agents
breaches the covenants set forth in this paragraph, irreparable injury may result to Lessee or such
third parties entrusting Confidential Information to Lessee. Therefore, Lessee’s remedies at law may
be inadequate and Lessee shall be entitled to seek an injunction to restrain any continuing breach.
If Lessor or any of its agents knows or reasonably believes that any Confidential Information in
Lessor’s control has been stolen, disclosed, lost, or is unaccounted for (collectively, a “Disclosure”),
Third Amendment to Land Lease July 19, 2022
Between the City of Dublin and U.S. National Bank Assoc. Page 3 of 5
Lessor must immediately notify Lessee and take commercially reasonable measures to assist
Lessee in determining the extent of the Disclosure.
8. Authority. Lessor and Lessee represent and warrant that each has all the necessary approvals and
authority to enter into this Lease and shall indemnify and hold each other harmless for any breach
of this representation and warranty.
9. No Existing Defaults. Lessor and Lessee represent and warrant that there are currently no defaults
by either party under the Lease.
10. Notices. Any notices to Lessor and/or Lessee under this Lease must be in writing and must be hand-
delivered, sent by prepaid certified mail or by reputable overnight courier addressed to the following,
all other notice requests shall remain as stated herein:
