Enterprise Risk Management 12 3 We implemented a rigorous enterprise risk management (“ERM”)
system in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis, and view this development as a defining event for our institution This system delivers a systematic approach to risk measurement and enhances the effectiveness of risk management across
the institution Integrating this system into our culture and strategic decision making has improved all functional areas of the business Significantly improved asset quality by enhancing our underwriting process, and establishing a specific
credit appetite that aligns to the broader enterprise risk management framework Has provided a process to quickly detect and address potential problems in our loan portfolio, greatly improving our ability to manage through the COVID-19
pandemic We have also implemented monitoring and controls for other functional areas such as:Information security and technology, vendor management, liquidity, interest rate risk, compliance, and company reputation The ERM program has
positioned our Company to better consummate acquisitions with less risk and increased cost savings We believe we are the only community bank of our size and in our market area to implement such a comprehensive enterprise risk management
system
Our Credit Culture 13 We have a service-driven, relationship-based, business-focused credit
culture, rather than a price-driven, transaction-based cultureSubstantially all of our loans are made to borrowers located, or operating, in our primary market areas with whom we have ongoing relationships across various product linesThe few
loans secured by properties outside of our primary market areas were made to borrowers who are otherwise well-known to usWe adhere to what we believe are disciplined underwriting standards, but also remain cognizant of serving the credit
needs of customers in our primary market areas by offering flexible loan solutions in a responsive and timely mannerOur lending policies do not provide for loans that are highly speculative, subprime, or that have high loan-to-value ratiosWe
maintain asset quality through an emphasis on the following: These components, together with active credit management, are the foundation of our credit culture, which we believe is critical to enhancing the long-term value of our
organization to our shareholders, customers, employees, and communities 4 Local market knowledge Long-term customer relationships Consistent and thorough underwriting Conservative Credit Culture Loan Portfolio Diversity
Relationship Focused Source: Company documents
Loan Approval Process 14 Striking a Balance Between: In Our Decision Making and Responsiveness
to Customers Prudence Disciplined Underwriting Flexibility Loan relationships in excess of an individual officers lending authority up to $3 million may be approved with joint authorities of the market president and senior credit
officer.Loan relationships over $3 million are approved by our Executive Loan Committee.New loans over $5 million to a relationship over $20 million are reported to the Board Credit Risk Committee. These limits are reviewed periodically by
the Company’s Board of DirectorsWe believe that our credit approval process provides for thorough underwriting and efficient decision making 4 Source: Company documents
Credit Quality 15 4Q’21 Highlights Credit Quality Ratios While growth continued in the loan
portfolio, the Company made no provision for loan loss in 4Q’21 in light of the general improvements in the economy and a decline in classified loans of $20.3 million in 4Q’21Ratio of Allowance for Loan Losses (“ALLL”) to Loans Held for
Investment (“HFI”) was 1.73% at 12/31/21 Net Charge-Offs to Average Loans ALLL to Total Loans HFI Source: Company documents
We are actively recruiting additional lenders from other institutions as we continue to make progress
with our goal of adding 20 lenders to our lending team over a two-year timeframe. We are actively hiring in all of our markets with a focus on Dallas and Houston where we have commercial loan offices. As we put our excess liquidity to work in
organic loan growth, we anticipate an expansion of our net interest margin and an acceleration in earnings growth, resulting in improved returns in future periods. Organic Growth Strategy Homegrown Returns We focus on leveraging our
banking platform in our metropolitan markets of Dallas, Houston and El Paso, where we target customers looking for our relationship-based approach to banking and our sophisticated products and services Our strategy is to continue gathering
low-cost deposits in smaller, non-metropolitan markets and deploy our excess funds in larger, more dynamic lending markets, where we have had strong success 16 Includes three Dallas, TX branches, two El Paso, TX branches, and one Houston,
