                  SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT BENEFIT AGREEMENT

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

         THIS AGREEMENT, made and entered into as of the 16th day of August,
1995, by and between NATIONAL CITY BANCSHARES, INC. ("BANCSHARES"), an Indiana
corporation, and JOHN D. LIPPERT ("LIPPERT");

                                 WITNESSETH:

         THAT WHEREAS, LIPPERT is employed by The National City Bank of
Evansville ("NATIONAL CITY"), a wholly owned subsidiary of BANCSHARES; and

         WHEREAS, the Parties anticipate that LIPPERT will, on or about January
1, 1996, become employed by BANCSHARES as its Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer; and

         WHEREAS, under date of May 6, 1994, NATIONAL CITY entered into an
agreement in writing ("Supplemental Retirement Benefit Agreement") with
LIPPERT, providing him, in addition to his regular Retirement Benefits, with a
nonqualified supplemental retirement benefit in the nature of deferred
compensation; and

         WHEREAS, to encourage LIPPERT's continued employment with either
BANCSHARES or its Affiliates, BANCSHARES has agreed to establish a replacement
nonqualified supplemental retirement benefit similar to that provided LIPPERT
by NATIONAL CITY;

         NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual advantages
expected to be derived by the Parties by reason of LIPPERT's continued
employment by either BANCSHARES or any of its Affiliates, the Parties have
agreed as follows:

<PAGE>   2

         1.      INTERPRETATION AND GENERAL.  Unless otherwise specified herein
to the contrary, the following terms shall have the following meanings in and
for the purposes of this Agreement:

         (a)     "Affiliate(s)" means a subsidiary of BANCSHARES,
                 including NATIONAL CITY.
   
         (b)     "Agreement," "hereof," "herein" and words of similar
                 import have reference to this Agreement as a whole and
                 not to any particular section, subsection or clause
                 hereof.

         (c)     "BANCSHARES" means NATIONAL CITY BANCSHARES, INC., an
                 Indiana corporation, and its successors in interest.

         (d)     "Deferred Compensation" means the periodic payments to
                 LIPPERT called for by the terms of this Agreement.

         (e)     "Disability" means, if LIPPERT is covered by a policy
                 of disability insurance furnished him by BANCSHARES or
                 an Affiliate, total disability as defined in such
                 policy without regard to any waiting period; but if he
                 is not covered by such a policy, Disability means a
                 sickness, accident or injury which, in the judgment
                 of a physician selected by BANCSHARES, will prevent
                 LIPPERT in the foreseeable future from performing
                 substantially all of the normal duties of his
                 employment.

         (f)     "LIPPERT" means the said JOHN D. LIPPERT.

         (g)     "Party" or "Parties" means BANCSHARES, LIPPERT or
                 both of them, as the context may require.

         (h)     "Regular Retirement Benefits" means those qualified
                 retirement benefits provided for LIPPERT as an employee
                 of either BANCSHARES or an Affiliate.

         (i)     "Retirement" means any voluntary termination of
                 LIPPERT's full-time employment with either BANCSHARES
                 or any Affiliate on or after October 19, 1997, or an
                 earlier termination by reason of his Disability.

         (j)     "Year" means the calendar year.





                                       2

All headings set forth herein are included for convenience of reference only
and shall not affect the interpretation hereof.  The singular of any noun or
pronoun shall, when used herein, include the plural, the plural the singular
and any gender all other genders.

         2.      TERMINATION OF PRIOR AGREEMENT.  The Supplemental Retirement
Benefit Agreement dated May 6, 1994, between NATIONAL CITY and LIPPERT is
hereby terminated in all respects and replaced and restated in its entirety by
this Agreement.

         3.      BANCSHARES' OBLIGATION FOR DEFERRED COMPENSATION.  As
additional compensation for LIPPERT's services prior to Retirement, and in
addition to LIPPERT'S Regular Retirement Benefits, and as a further inducement
to LIPPERT to remain in the employ of either BANCSHARES or an Affiliate until
Retirement, BANCSHARES shall, commencing November 1, 1998 (but only if LIPPERT
has been continuously in the employ of BANCSHARES or an Affiliate until
Retirement), pay or cause him to be paid Deferred Compensation at the rate of
Twenty-five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00) per Year for the balance of his
lifetime.

         4.      PAYMENT OF DEFERRED COMPENSATION.  The Deferred Compensation
shall be paid in installments at such payroll periods and in like manner as may
be uniformly established from time to time by BANCSHARES for the compensation
of its salaried employees.  If, in the opinion of the Board of Directors of
BANCSHARES, LIPPERT is at any time under legal disability or is otherwise
incapacitated in such a way as to be unable to manage his financial affairs,
the Deferred Compensation may be paid from time to time in such of the
following manners as the Board of Directors of BANCSHARES may deem best,
namely:

    (i)  directly to LIPPERT, regardless of competency;





                                       3
<PAGE>   4

   (ii)  to LIPPERT's legally appointed guardian or conservator;

  (iii)  to any relative or friend of LIPPERT selected by
         BANCSHARES, or to any person having his physical
         custody for the use by such relative, friend or other
         person for his care and support; or

   (iv)  by direct payment by BANCSHARES for the care and
         support of LIPPERT.  The receipt by any one of any
         portion of the Deferred Compensation to whom payment is
         so made shall be a complete discharge of BANCSHARES for
         such payment.

         5.      GENERAL OBLIGATION OF BANCSHARES.  The Deferred Compensation
is and shall at all times remain an unfunded and unsecured general obligation
of BANCSHARES, and LIPPERT shall at all times be deemed to be an unsecured
creditor of BANCSHARES in respect thereof.  LIPPERT shall at no time have any
right or claim to the Deferred Compensation except as and when due and payable
hereunder.  Upon LIPPERT's death, BANCSHARES' obligation to make further
payments of the Deferred Compensation shall terminate as of the date of the
payroll period ending immediately following his death, and without proration.
All rights to the Deferred Compensation are personal to LIPPERT, and neither
this Agreement nor any right or interest of LIPPERT arising hereunder is
subject to any voluntary or involuntary alienation, transfer, assignment or
anticipation, nor to garnishment, attachment or other claims of creditors.

         6.      BANCSHARES' AUTHORIZATION TO WITHHOLD.  BANCSHARES shall
deduct and withhold from each payment of the Deferred Compensation any and all
amounts which may be required by applicable law or regulation; and LIPPERT, on
behalf of himself, his heirs and legatees, releases BANCSHARES and agrees to
indemnify BANCSHARES and hold it harmless from any liability by reason of any
determination made by it in good faith as to BANCSHARES' obligation to make any
such deduction or





                                       4
<PAGE>   5

withholding, and from any liability to any governmental authority for failing
to so deduct or withhold.

         7.      NOTICES.  Any notices, requests, elections or other
communications required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing
and shall be delivered by hand or courier (including Federal Express and other
such courier services) or deposited with the United States Postal Service for
delivery by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage
fully prepaid and properly addressed to the Party to whom the communication is

to file suit against the other for the purpose of enforcing rights hereunder,
the prevailing Party shall be entitled to receive judgment against the other,
in addition to whatever relief is granted by the court, for his or its
attorney's fees and other costs and fees incurred in connection with either the
prosecution or defense of such suit.

         10.     MISCELLANEOUS.  This Agreement may be modified only by an
agreement in writing executed by both of the Parties.  Subject to the
prohibition against any assignment or alienation by LIPPERT, this Agreement
shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of both Parties and their
respective heirs, legal representatives, personal representatives, successors
and assigns.  The waiver by either Party of a breach of the provisions hereof
shall not operate nor be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach hereof.

         WITNESS THE EXECUTION HEREOF as of the day and year first above
written.
