Forward-Looking Statements
2
This presentation contains certain forward-looking information about CU Bancorp and  its wholly-owned subsidiary, 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 could reduce 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, accounting 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 Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and other reports filed by the Company
with the SEC. The documents filed with the SEC may be obtained on the Investor Relations page of the Company’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
