Exhibit 10.1

FIRST PULASKI NATIONAL CORPORATION

RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT

       THIS RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT

(the "Agreement") is by and between First Pulaski National Corporation, a
Tennessee corporation (the "Company"), and ____________ (the "Grantee").
Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meaning
ascribed to such terms in the First Pulaski National Corporation 2007 Equity
Incentive Plan (the "Plan").

       Section 1. Restricted Stock Award. The Grantee is hereby granted the
right to receive _____ shares (the "Restricted Stock") of the Company's common
stock, $1.00 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and the Plan.

       Section 2. Lapse of Restrictions. Subject to Sections 5 and 9 hereof, the
restrictions associated with the shares of Restricted Stock granted pursuant to
Section 1 hereof shall lapse on the one year anniversary of the date of grant.

       Section 3. Distribution of Restricted Stock. Certificates representing
the shares of Restricted Stock that have vested under Section 2 will be
distributed to the Grantee as soon as practicable after each Vesting Date.

       Section 4. Voting Rights and Dividends. Prior to the distribution of the
Restricted Stock, certificates representing shares of Restricted Stock will be
held by the Company (the "Custodian") in the name of the Grantee. The Custodian
will take such action as is necessary and appropriate to enable the Grantee to
vote the Restricted Stock. All cash dividends received by the Custodian, if any,
with respect to the Restricted Stock will be remitted to the Grantee. Stock
dividends issued with respect to the Restricted Stock shall be treated as
additional shares of Restricted Stock that are subject to the same restrictions
and other terms and conditions that apply to the shares of Restricted Stock.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no voting rights or dividend rights shall inure
to the Grantee following the forfeiture of the Restricted Stock pursuant to
Section 5.

       Section 5. Termination/Change of Status. In the event that the Grantee's
employment by the Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company)
terminates for any reason, all shares of Restricted Stock for which the
forfeiture restrictions have not lapsed prior to the date of termination shall
be immediately forfeited and Grantee shall have no further rights with respect
to such shares of Restricted Stock.

       Section 6. No Transfer or Pledge of Restricted Stock. No shares of
Restricted Stock may be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or
otherwise encumbered or disposed of prior

to the date the forfeiture restrictions with respect to such shares have lapsed,
if at all, on any Vesting Date.

       Section 7. Tax Election. The Grantee may, but is not required to, elect
to apply the tax rules of Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code"), to the issuance of the Restricted Stock. If the Grantee
makes an affirmative election under Section 83(b) of the Code, the Grantee shall
deliver a copy of such election to the Company in accordance with the
requirements of the Code and the Regulations promulgated thereunder.

       Section 8. Tax Withholding. The Company may withhold from any
distribution of Restricted Stock an amount of Common Stock equal to such
federal, state or local taxes as shall be required to be withheld pursuant to
any applicable law or regulation, unless the Company agrees to accept a payment
of cash (or to withhold from other wages payable to Grantee) in the amount of
such withholding taxes.

       Section 9. Change of Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control
as defined in the Plan, all Restricted Stock shall be deemed vested and the
restrictions under the Plan and the Agreement with respect to the Restricted
Stock, including the restriction on transfer set forth in Section 6 hereof,
shall automatically expire and shall be of no further force or effect.

       Section 10. Stock Subject to Award. The Board shall make equitable and
proportionate adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria
included in, the shares of Restricted Stock awarded hereunder in recognition of
unusual or nonrecurring events (including, without limitation, the events
described in Section 4.2 of the Plan) affecting the Company, any Subsidiary or
Affiliate, or the financial statements of the Company or any Subsidiary or
Affiliate, or of changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting
principles, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or
potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan.

       Section 11. Stock Power. Concurrently with the execution of this
Agreement, the Grantee shall deliver to the Company a stock power, endorsed in
blank, relating to the shares of Restricted Stock. Such stock power shall be in
