Agreement between Company and Executive dated effective as of January 1, 2005

WHEREAS, Company and Executive have agreed to amend and restate the Original
Agreement as set forth herein; and
WHEREAS, Executive desires to continue to be employed by the Company, and the

conditions hereafter set forth in this Agreement; and
WHEREAS, Company has devoted a substantial amount of time and effort and has

“Change in Control Compensation”):
(i)    An amount equal to two (2) years of Executive’s Base Salary at the rate

6.409A. The following provisions shall apply notwithstanding any other
provisions herein to the contrary:
6.1Separation From Service. Any amount that (i) is payable upon termination of
Executive’s employment with the Company under any provision of this Agreement,
and (ii) is subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 409A”), shall not be paid unless and until
the Executive has Separated from Service. As used in this Agreement, the terms
“Separated from Service” and “Separation from Service” shall have the meaning
specified in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h).
6.2Specified Employee. If Executive is a “specified employee” (within the
meaning of Section 409A) of Company at the time of his termination of employment
and if payment of severance compensation to the Executive is on account of an
“involuntary separation from service” (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section
1.409A-1(n)), Executive shall be paid such severance compensation during the six
(6) month period immediately following the date of his Separation from Service
as otherwise provided under Section 5 for such six -month period except that the
total amount of such payments shall not exceed the lesser of the amount
specified under (i) Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(9)(iii)(A)(1) or (ii)
Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(9)(iii)(A)(2). To the extent such amounts
otherwise payable during such six-month period exceed the amounts payable under
the immediately preceding sentence, such excess amounts shall not be paid during
such six-month period, but instead shall be paid in a single sum on the first
regular payroll date of Company immediately following the six (6) month
anniversary of the date of Executive’s Separation from Service. If Executive is
a specified employee and Executive’s Separation from Service is not an
involuntary separation from service as defined in Treasury Regulation Section
1.409A-1(n), then any severance compensation and any other amount due to
Executive under this Agreement that is subject to Section 409A and that would
otherwise have been paid during the six (6) month period immediately following
the date of Executive’s Separation from Service shall be paid in a single sum on
the first payroll date of Company immediately following the six month
anniversary of Executive’s Separation from Service. Amounts, the payment of
which are deferred under this Section, shall be increased by interest at the
prime rate as of the date of Executive’s Separation from Service as published in
the Wall Street Journal from the date such amounts would have been paid but for
this provision and such accumulated interest shall also be paid to the Executive
on the first payroll date of Company immediately following the six month
anniversary of Executive’s Separation from Service.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, the Company has no
responsibility or obligation to Executive with respect to any tax that may be
incurred by Executive pursuant to Section 409A.
6.3Savings Clause. All payments under the Agreement are intended to be exempt
from Section 409A as short-term deferrals. In the event that any provision of
the Agreement is deemed to be subject to Section 409A, the Company shall operate
the Agreement in accordance with the

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

requirements set forth in Section 409A. If any provision of the Agreement does
not comply with the requirements of Section 409A, the Company, in exercise of
its sole discretion and without consent of the Executive, may amend or modify
the Agreement in any manner to the extent necessary to meet the requirements of
Section 409A.
7.Death of Executive. In the event Executive dies before amounts are paid to him
under this Agreement, such amounts shall be paid to his designed beneficiary of
beneficiaries, or if there are no designated beneficiary or beneficiaries, to
his estate.
8.Confidentiality; Non-Disparagement.
8.1Executive agrees to hold in strict confidence and not disclose all non-public
information concerning any matters affecting or relating to the business of the
Company, its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, including without limiting the
generality of the foregoing non-public information concerning their manner of
operation, business or other plans, data bases, marketing programs, protocols,
processes, computer programs, client lists, marketing information and analyses,
operating policies or manuals or other data (the “Confidential Information”).
Executive agrees that he will not, directly or indirectly, use any Confidential
Information for the benefit of any person, business, legal entity other than the
Company or disclose or communicate any of the Confidential Information in any
manner whatsoever other than to the directors, officers, employees, agents and
representatives of the Company who need to know such information, who shall be
informed by Executive of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information
and directed by Executive to treat the Confidential Information confidentially.
Upon the Company’s request, Executive shall return all information furnished to
him related to the business of the Company without retaining any copies in
electronic or other form. The above limitations on use and disclosure shall not
apply to information which Executive can demonstrate: (a) was known to Executive
before receipt thereof from the Company; (b) is learned by Executive from a
third party entitled to disclose it; or (c) becomes known publicly other than
through Executive; (d) is disclosed by Executive upon authority of the Board or
any committee of the Board; (e) is disclosed pursuant to any legal requirement
or (f) is disclosed pursuant to any agreement to which the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries or Affiliates is a party. The parties hereto stipulate that all
such information is material and confidential and gravely affects the effective
and successful conduct of the business of the Company and the Company’s
goodwill, and that any breach of the terms of this Section 8 shall be a material
breach of this Agreement.
8.2Executive further agrees that, during the Employment Term and thereafter
(regardless of the reason for such termination), Executive will not make any
disparaging or derogatory statement, oral or written, to any third party which
is or is likely to be materially detrimental to the goodwill of the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates. Nothing herein shall prevent Executive
from testifying truthfully in connection with any litigation, arbitration or
administrative proceeding.
9.Use of Proprietary Information. Executive recognizes that the Company
possesses a proprietary interest in all of the Confidential Information and has
the exclusive right and privilege to use, protect by copyright, patent or
trademark, manufacture or otherwise exploit the processes, ideas and concepts
described therein to the exclusion of Executive, except as otherwise agreed
between the Company and Executive in writing. Executive expressly agrees that
any products, inventions, discoveries or improvements made by Executive, his
agents or affiliates, during the Employment Term, based on or arising out of the
Confidential Information shall be the property of and inure to the exclusive
benefit of the Company. Executive further agrees that any and all products,
inventions, discoveries or improvements developed by Executive (whether or not
able to be protected by copyright, patent or trademark) in the scope of his
employment, or involving the use of the Company’s time, materials or other
resources, shall be promptly disclosed to the Company and shall become the
exclusive property of the Company. Upon any termination of Executive’s
employment or engagement with the Company, Executive shall immediately return
all Confidential Information (and all tangible embodiments thereof) possessed by
Executive to the Company.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

10.Restrictive Covenants.
10.1Non-Competition. Because of Executive’s unique and specialized position
within Company and Executive’s access to and familiarity with Company’s
Confidential business methodologies, Executive agrees that, during the
Employment Term and for a period of one year following a termination of
Executive’s employment for any reason (the “Non-Compete Period”), Executive
shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, directly or
indirectly, own, manage, operate, control, be connected with as an officer,
employee, partner, consultant or otherwise, or otherwise engage or participate
in (except as an employee of the Company, or its Affiliates) any Person engaged
in the operation, ownership or management of a bank, trust company, or bank
holding company within the Metropolitan Statistical Areas of St. Louis, Kansas
City, Phoenix, Arizona or any other city in which the Company or any of its
Affiliates has an office at the time of such termination. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, (a) Executive’s employment during the Non-Compete Period by an entity
that engages in the operation or management of a bank or trust company in
addition to other business services shall not, in and of itself, be a violation
of the foregoing provided that Executive is in no way directly or indirectly
involved in (i) the management or operation of such bank or trust company or
(ii) marketing or sales of banking or trust services; and (b) the ownership by
Executive of less than 1% of any class of the outstanding capital stock of any
corporation conducting such a competitive business which is regularly traded on
a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter market shall not be a
violation of the foregoing covenant.
10.2Non-Solicitation.
(a)    During the Employment Term and continuing during the Non-Compete Period,
Executive shall not, except on behalf of or with the prior written consent of
the Company, directly or indirectly, whether alone or in association, or
combination with any other Person, or as an officer, director, shareholder,
member, manager, employee, agent, independent contractor, consultant, advisor,
joint venturer, partner or otherwise and whether or not for pecuniary benefit:

(i)    solicit, take away, attempt to take away, divert, attempt to divert,
engage in any of the Company’s Lines of Business (as defined below) with,
contract with or in any way interfere with the relationship between any
Protected Customer (as defined below) and the Company or its Affiliates.

(ii)    (1) hire or employ any other employee of the Company, (2) entice,
solicit, recruit or induce any other employee of the Company or its Affiliates
to leave such employ or (3) otherwise interfere with the employment of any other
employee of the Company or its Affiliates.
(b)    Before Executive becomes employed by or becomes a consultant for a Person
during the Non-Compete Period, Executive shall inform such Person of the
provisions of this Section 10.2. Provided, however, that nothing contained
herein shall prevent such Person employing Executive from continuing to provide
services to any individual or other entity that was a customer of the Person
prior to the date of the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company.
Company may advise any third party with whom Executive may consider, establish
or contract a relationship, including but not limited to an employment
relationship of this Agreement and its terms, and the Company shall have no
liability for so acting.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(c)    For purposes of this Agreement, “Protected Customer” means any Person and
its/his/her Affiliate (i) for whom the Company or any of its Affiliates has
provided the Company’s lines of business, including without limitation wealth
management, sales of tax credits, investment, banking, trust, insurance or other
financial services provided by the Company or any of its Affiliates
(collectively, “Company’s Lines of Business”) within the twenty-four month
period prior to the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company or
(ii) to whom the Executive on behalf of the Company or any of its Affiliates had
made a proposal to provide any Company’s Lines of Business at any time within
twelve (12) months preceding the termination of Executive’s employment with the
Company.
10.3Saving Provision. The parties hereto agree that, in the event a court of
competent jurisdiction shall determine that the geographical, durational or
other elements of this covenant are unenforceable, such determination shall not
render the entire covenant unenforceable. Rather, the excessive aspects of the
covenant shall be reduced to the threshold which is enforceable, and the
remaining aspects shall not be affected thereby. The parties intend that the
restrictions of this Section 10 be given the construction that renders their
provisions valid and enforceable to the maximum extent possible under applicable
law.
10.4Equitable Relief. Executive acknowledges that the extent of damages to the
Company from a breach of Sections 8, 9 and 10 of this Agreement would not be
readily quantifiable or ascertainable, that monetary damages would be inadequate
to make the Company whole in case of such a breach, and that there is not and
would not be an adequate remedy at law for such a breach. Therefore, Executive
specifically agrees that the Company is entitled to injunctive or other
equitable relief (without any requirement to post any bond or other security)
from a breach of Sections 8, 9 and 10 of this Agreement, and hereby waives and
covenants not to assert against a prayer for such relief that there exists an
adequate remedy at law, in monetary damages or otherwise.

10.5    Tolling. Executive agrees that, in the event of a breach of any of the
provisions of this Section 10, the time period specified in such provisions
shall be extended by the number of days between the date of such breach and the
date such breach is enjoined or other relief is granted to the Company by a
court of competent jurisdiction. It is the intention of the parties that the
Company shall enjoy the faithful performance by Executive of the covenants
specified in this Section 10 for the full time periods specified herein.

10.6    Reasonableness of Restrictive Covenants. Executive recognizes that as an
employee and/or officer of the Company, (i) Executive has and will have
substantial customer contacts, perform special and unique duties and services
for the Company and acquire Confidential Information, (ii) the Confidential
Information is the property of the Company and the use, misappropriation, or
disclosure of the Confidential Information would constitute a breach of trust
and could cause irreparable injury to the Company; and it is essential to the
protection of the Company’s good will and to the maintenance of the Company’s
competitive position that the Confidential Information be kept secret, and (iii)
the Company has a valid, protectable right and business interest in preserving
the relationships described in this Agreement. The Company and Executive further
agree that but for Executive’s agreement to the provisions of Sections 8, 9 and
10 of this Agreement, Executive would not be eligible for continued employment
by the Company on an “at will” basis and for no definite term and the Company
would not make available or continue to make available to Executive the
Confidential Information. Executive further agrees that: (A) the covenants and
agreements contained herein are reasonable and necessary in order to protect the
legitimate business interests of the Company and (B) the enforcement of such
covenants would not unreasonably impair Executive’s ability to earn a
livelihood.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

11.Assignment. This Agreement is personal to Executive and shall not be
assignable by him.
12.Entire Agreement. This Agreement and any agreements entered into after the
date hereof under any of the Company’s benefit plans or compensation programs as
described in Section 4 contain the complete agreement concerning the employment
arrangement between the parties, including without limitation severance or
termination pay, and shall, as of the Effective Date, supersede all other
agreements or arrangements between the parties with regard to the subject matter
hereof, including without limitation the Original Agreement.
13.Binding Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, legal representatives,
successors and assigns. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement
shall not be terminated by reason of any liquidation, dissolution, bankruptcy,
cessation of business or similar event relating to the Company. This Agreement
shall not be terminated by reason of any merger, consolidation or reorganization
of the Company, but shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
