At any meeting of shareholders of CU to approve the Reorganization Agreement, the Merger and the transactions contemplated thereby (the "CU Shareholders' Meeting"), Shareholder shall vote or cause to be voted in favor of, and to approve, the Reorganization Agreement, the Merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, all of the 2 shares of CU Stock as to which Shareholder has sole or shared voting power (the "Shares"). Shareholder further agrees to vote or cause to be voted all the Shares, except with the prior written consent of BHI, against the following actions (other than the Merger and the transactions contemplated by the Reorganization Agreement): (a) any extraordinary corporate transactions, such as a merger, consolidation or other business combination involving CU or its subsidiaries; (b) any sale, lease or transfer of a material amount of the assets of CU or its subsidiaries; (c) any change in the majority of the board of directors of CU; (d) any material change in the present capitalization of CU; (e) any amendment of CU's Articles of Incorporation; (f) any other material change in CU's corporate structure or business; or (g) any other action which is intended, or could reasonably be expected to, impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, discourage or materially adversely affect the contemplated economic benefits to BHI of the Merger or the transactions contemplated by the Reorganization Agreement or the CU Stock Option Agreement. 1.2 Legend. The Shareholder agrees that the following legend may be stamped, printed or typed on the face of his certificates of CU Stock evidencing the Shares: "THE VOTING, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, TRANSFER, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR OTHER ENCUMBRANCE OR DISPOSITION OF THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS SUBJECT TO A SHAREHOLDER'S AGREEMENT DATED AS OF THE 24TH DAY OF FEBRUARY, 1997 BY AND BETWEEN BANCORP HAWAII, INC. AND (THE RECORD OWNER HEREOF), COPIES OF WHICH ARE ON FILE AT THE OFFICES OF BANCORP HAWAII, INC." CU agrees to issue stop transfer instructions to CU's transfer agent with respect to Shareholder's CU Stock, to maintain such instructions in effect until termination of this Agreement, and to use its reasonable best efforts to prevent a transfer of Shareholder's CU Stock contrary to the terms of this Agreement. 1.3 Restrictions on Dispositions. The Shareholder agrees that, from and after the date of this Agreement and during the term of this Agreement, the Shareholder will not take any action that will alter or affect in any way the right to vote the Shares, except (i) with the prior written consent of BHI or (ii) to change such right from that of a shared right of the Shareholder to vote the Shares to a sole right of the Shareholder to vote the Shares. The Shareholder agrees that he will not pledge or otherwise encumber, nor sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of or reduce his risk of ownership or investment in, any of the Shares currently owned or acquired by such Shareholder after the date of this Agreement, except (i) with the prior written consent of BHI (which shall not be unreasonably withheld); (ii) pursuant to the Merger; or (iii) for any Shares 3 acquired by Shareholder after the record date for the CU Shareholders' Meeting upon exercise of options presently held by Shareholder. 1.4 Cooperation. Shareholder agrees that he/she will not directly or indirectly solicit any inquiries or proposals from any person relating to any proposal or transaction for the disposition of the business or assets of CU or any of its subsidiaries, or the acquisition of voting securities of CU or any subsidiary of CU or any business combination between CU or any subsidiary of CU and any person other than BHI. ARTICLE II REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SHAREHOLDER The Shareholder represents and warrants to BHI that the statements set forth below are true and correct as of the date of this Agreement, except those that are specifically as of a different date: 2.1 Ownership and Related Matters. (a) Schedule 2.1(a) hereto correctly sets forth the number of Shares beneficially owned by Shareholder and the nature of Shareholder's voting power with respect thereto. The Shareholder has good title to all of the Shares indicated as owned by such Shareholder in the capacity set forth on Schedule 2.1(a), and such Shares are so owned free and clear of any liens, security interest, charges or other encumbrances, except as set forth in such Schedule 2.1(a). Within five Business Days after the record date for the CU Shareholder's Meeting (the "Record Date"), the Shareholder shall amend said Schedule 2.1(a) to correctly reflect the number of Shares and the nature of Shareholder's voting power with respect thereto as of the Record Date. (b) There are no proxies, voting trusts or other agreements or understandings to or by which the Shareholder or the Shareholder's spouse is a party or bound or that expressly requires that any of the Shares be voted in any specific manner other than as provided in this Agreement. 2.2 Authorization and Binding Agreement. The Shareholder has the legal right, power, capacity and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement, and this Agreement is the valid and binding obligation of the Shareholder enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by general principles of equity. 2.3 Non-contravention. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Shareholder will not (a) conflict with or result in the breach of, or default or actual or potential 4 loss of any benefit under, any provision of any agreement, instrument or obligation to which the Shareholder or the Shareholder's spouse is a party or by which any of Shareholder's properties or the Shareholder's spouse's properties are bound, or give any other party to any such agreement, instrument or obligation a right to terminate or modify any term thereof; (b) require the consent or approval of any third party; (c) result in the creation or imposition of any lien, mortgage or encumbrance on any of the Shares or any other assets of the Shareholder or the Shareholder's spouse; or (d) violate any law, rule or regulation to which the Shareholder or the Shareholder's spouse is subject.

The Shareholder and BHI each expressly acknowledge that, in view of the uniqueness of the obligations of the Shareholder contemplated hereby, BHI would not have an adequate remedy at law for money damages in the event that this Agreement has not been performed by the Shareholder in accordance with its terms, and therefore the Shareholder and BHI agree that BHI shall be entitled to specific enforcement of the terms hereof in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled at law or in equity. 3.4 Termination.

Neither this Agreement nor any rights, duties or obligations hereunder shall be assignable by BHI or the Shareholder, in whole or in part.
