contains

certain

forward-looking

information

about

1

st

Enterprise

and

the

combined

company

after

the

close

of

the

transaction

that

is

intended

to

be

covered

by

the

safe

harbor for “forward looking statements”

provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Such statements involve inherent

risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and are generally beyond the control of the Company. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and we assume no duty to update such

statements.  We caution readers that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, implied or projected by, such forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties

include,

but

are

not

limited

to:

lower

than

expected

revenues;

credit

quality

deterioration

or

a

reduction

in

real

estate

values

could

cause

an

increase

in

the

allowance

for

credit

losses

and

a

reduction

in

net

earnings;

increased

competitive pressure among depository institutions; the Company’s ability to complete future acquisitions, successfully integrate such acquired entities, or achieve expected beneficial synergies and/or operating efficiencies

within expected time-frames or at all; the possibility that personnel changes will not proceed as planned; the cost of additional capital is more than expected; a change in the interest rate environment reduces net interest

margins; asset/liability repricing risks and liquidity risks; legal matters could be filed against the Company and could take longer or cost more than expected to resolve or may be resolved adversely to the Company; general

economic

conditions,

either

nationally

or

in

the

market

areas

in

which

the

Company

does

or

anticipates

doing

business,

are

less

favorable

than

expected;

environmental

conditions,

including

natural

disasters

and

drought,

may

disrupt our business, impede our operations, negatively impact the values of collateral securing the Company’s loans and leases or impair the ability of our borrowers to support their debt obligations; the economic and

regulatory

effects

of

the

continuing

war

on

terrorism

and

other

events

of

war,

including

the

conflicts

in

the

Middle

East;

legislative

or

regulatory

requirements

or

changes

adversely

affecting

the

Company’s

business;

changes

in

the securities markets; regulatory approvals for any capital activities cannot be obtained on the terms expected or on the anticipated schedule; and, other risks that are described in CU Bancorp’s public filings with the U.S.

Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  Additional risks and uncertainties relating to the proposed transaction with 1st Enterprise Bank include, but are not limited to: the ability to complete the proposed transaction,

including obtaining regulatory approvals and approvals by the shareholders of CU Bancorp and 1st Enterprise Bank; the length of time necessary to consummate the proposed transaction; the ability to successfully integrate the

two

institutions

and

achieve

expected

synergies

and

operating

efficiencies

on

the

expected

timeframe;

unexpected

costs

relating

to

the

proposed

transaction;

and

the

potential

impact

on

the

institutions’

respective

businesses

as

a result

of

uncertainty

surrounding

the

proposed

transaction.

If

any

of

these

risks

or

uncertainties

materializes

or

if

any

of

the

assumptions

underlying

such

forward-looking

statements

proves

to

be

incorrect,

results

could

differ

materially

from

those

expressed

in,

implied

or

projected

by

forward-looking

statements.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

The Company utilizes the term Core Net Income, a non-GAAP financial measure.  CU Bancorp’s management believes Core Net Income is useful because it is a measure utilized by management and market

analysts to understand the effects of merger expenses and provides an alternative view of the Company’s performance over time and in comparison to the Company’s competitors.  Core net income should

not be viewed as a substitute for net income.  A reconciliation of CU Bancorp’s Net Income to Core Net Income, as well as related ratios is presented in the tables below for the periods indicated:

Transaction Rationale

Combination

to

create

a

$2.2

billion

“pure

play”

business

bank

in

Southern

California

Both companies have a track record of strong organic growth

Scarcity value for a business banking franchise in Southern California

Southern California offers an unparalleled opportunity for middle market business banks

Cultural similarities

Focused on small to mid-sized businesses as target clients

High quality deposit base (> 50% noninterest bearing deposits and 0.11% cost of deposits)

Conservative credit cultures and similar loan portfolio mix (> 50% combined C&I and OO CRE)

Performance driven business development philosophy

Management team comprised of veteran Southern California business bankers

Complementary strengths provide opportunities for revenue synergies

Partnership approach to create the “best-in-class”

group of banking professionals for the pro forma

company

Pro forma branch network covers the greater Los Angeles market

Leverages capital and increases liquidity

Draws on CUNB’s strong track record of transaction execution

Financially compelling projected pro forma results

Strategic

Partnership

Enhances

Value of Both

Franchises
