Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

On December 23, 2009, the Funds purchased an aggregate of 1,142,862 shares of Common Stock acquired at an aggregate cost of $6,000,000. The Patriot Fund purchased 974,551 shares of Common Stock acquired at a purchase price of $5,116,371 and the Patriot Parallel Fund purchased 168,311 shares of Common Stock acquired at a purchase price of $883,629. The purchases were made with working capital of the Funds through a line of credit in the normal course of business and then paid down from the proceeds from investor capital calls.

On March 18, 2014, the Funds sold an aggregate of 3,800 shares of Common Stock and on May 22, 2014, the Funds sold an aggregate of 100,000 shares of Common Stock. At the time of these sales, the Funds were “affiliates” of the Company as that term is defined in Paragraph (a)(1) of Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (“Rule 144”). The shares of Common Stock were sold in compliance with Rule 144. After the sales, the Funds were no longer deemed “affiliates” of the Company as that term is defined in Paragraph (a)(1) of Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (“Rule 144”).

As a result of these sales, the Funds sold an aggregate of 103,800 shares of Common Stock for gross proceeds of approximately $1,203,439 with the Patriot Fund selling 88,509 shares of Common Stock for gross proceeds of approximately $1,026,157 and the Patriot Parallel Fund selling 15,291 shares of Common Stock for gross proceeds of approximately $177,281. On June 3, 2014, the Reporting Persons filed Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D to report a decrease in the beneficial ownership of the Common Stock.

On June 27, 2014, the Funds sold an aggregate of an additional 265,000 shares of Common Stock for gross proceeds of $2,994,553 with the Patriot Fund selling 225,965 shares of Common Stock for gross proceeds of approximately $2,553,450 and the Patriot Parallel Fund selling 39,035 shares of Common Stock for gross proceeds of approximately $441,103. As of the date of this filing, the Funds beneficially own 774,062 shares of Common Stock, of which the Patriot Fund owns 660,077 shares of Common Stock and the Patriot Parallel Fund owns 113,985 shares of Common Stock.

Pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement (“Stock Purchase Agreement”) (included as Exhibit 2 hereto) and a related Management Rights Agreement (“Management Rights Agreement”) (attached as Exhibit C to the Stock Purchase Agreement) entered into on December 23, 2009 among the Funds and the Company, the Funds were entitled to designate a representative to attend meetings of the Boards of Directors of Central Valley Community Bank and the Company (the “Boards”) in the capacity of a nonvoting observer. On May 22, 2014, the Company and the Funds agreed to terminate the Management Rights Agreement (the “Termination of Management Rights Agreement”) (included as Exhibit 3 hereto).

Under the Management Rights Agreement the Funds had access to materials provided to the Company’s Board of Directors and could designate a non-voting observer to attend meetings of the Board. As a result of the Termination of Management Rights Agreement, the Funds shall no longer receive Board materials or have observer rights, but must maintain in confidence information obtained under the Management Rights Agreement. The Company confirmed to the Funds in the Termination of Management Rights Agreement that it no longer considers the Funds to be affiliates of the Company for purposes of federal securities laws, provided that the Funds’ aggregate ownership of the Company’s Common Stock does not again represent 10% or more of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock.

The Reporting Persons are engaged in the investment business and in the ordinary course of business review and analyze various factors affecting the companies whose securities they own, including the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Reporting Persons may determine from time to time in the future, based on market and general economic conditions, the business affairs and financial condition of the Company, the availability of securities at favorable prices and alternative investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, and other factors that the Reporting Persons may deem relevant, to acquire additional securities of the Company in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, or to sell some or all of the securities they now hold or hereafter acquire as set forth above or otherwise.

Except to the extent the foregoing may be deemed a plan or proposal, the Reporting Persons have no plans or proposals which relate to, or could result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j), inclusive, of the instructions to Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their position and/or change their purpose and/or formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto.

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer

The percentages used in this Schedule 13D are based upon 10,927,925 outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the date hereof.

(a)-(b) Patriot Fund possesses shared voting and dispositive power over and beneficially owns 660,077 shares, or 6.0%, of the outstanding Common Stock.

Patriot Parallel Fund possesses shared voting and dispositive power and beneficially owns 113,985 shares, or 1.0%, of the outstanding Common Stock.
