Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation contains certain forward-looking information about CU Bancorp and California United Bank (collectively the “Company”) 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. There are a number of important factors that 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 which could cause an increase in the
allowance for loan losses and a reduction in net earnings; increased competitive pressure among depository institutions; a change in the interest
rate environment which reduces interest margins; asset/liability repricing risks and liquidity risks; 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, may disrupt our business, impede our operations, negatively impact the values of collateral security for the
Company’s loans 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; legislative or regulatory requirements or changes adversely affecting the Company’s business; and
changes in the securities markets. If any of these risks or uncertainties materializes or if any of the assumptions underlying such forward-looking
statements proves to be incorrect, the Company’s results could differ materially from those expressed in, implied or projected by such forward-
looking statements. The Company assumes no obligation to update such forward-looking statements. For a more complete discussion of risks and
uncertainties, read the Bank’s annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and other reports filed by the Bank with the FDIC
and by CU Bancorp with the SEC. The documents filed with the FDIC and the SEC may be obtained at California United Bank’s website at
www.cunb.com. These documents may also be obtained free of charge from CU Bancorp by directing a request to CU Bancorp, 15821
