assets, after providing for any required withholding as needed for tax purposes,
exclusively in Common Shares; provided, however, that the Trust shall not

                            ELIGIBILITY; ALLOCATIONS

         6.01 ELIGIBILITY. Directors and Employees are eligible to receive
Awards within the sole discretion of the Committee.

         6.02 ALLOCATIONS. The Committee will determine which of the Directors
and Employees will be granted Awards and the number of Plan Shares covered by
each Award; provided, however, that: (a) the aggregate number of Plan Shares
covered by Awards to any one Employee shall not exceed 25% of the total number
of Plan Shares, (b) no more than 5% of the Plan Shares shall be awarded to any
Director who is not an Employee, and (c) no more than 30% of the Plan Shares
shall be awarded in the aggregate to Directors who are not Employees. In the
event Plan Shares are forfeited for any reason or additional Plan Shares are
purchased by the Trustee, the Committee may, from time to time, determine which
of the Employees will be granted additional Awards to be awarded from forfeited
or additional Plan Shares.

         In selecting the Directors and Employees to whom Awards will be granted
and the number of shares covered by such Awards, the Committee shall consider
the position, duties and responsibilities of the eligible Directors and
Employees, the value of their services to the Corporation, the Bank and the
Subsidiaries and any other factors the Committee may deem relevant. All
allocations by the Committee shall be subject to review and approval or
rejection by the Board.

         6.03 FORM OF ALLOCATION. As promptly as practicable after a
determination is made pursuant to Section 6.02 of this Agreement that an Award
is to be made, the Committee shall notify the Recipient in writing of the grant
of the Award,

the number of Plan Shares covered by the Award and the terms upon which the Plan
Shares subject to the Award may be earned. The date on which the Committee
determines that an Award is to be made or a later date designated by the
Committee shall be considered the date of grant of the Awards. The Committee
shall maintain records as to all grants of Awards under the Plan.

         6.04 ALLOCATIONS NOT REQUIRED. None of the Directors or Employees,
either individually or as a group, shall have any right or entitlement to
receive an Award under the Plan. The Committee may, with the approval of the
Board, and shall, if so directed by the Board, return all Common Shares and
other assets in the Plan Share Reserve to the Corporation at any time and
thereafter cease issuing Awards.

         6.05 SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL. This Agreement shall be submitted to the
shareholders of the Corporation at an annual or special meeting to be held no
sooner than six months after the effective date of the Conversion.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Awards shall be
granted hereunder until the shareholders of the Corporation approve this
Agreement.

Award shall be earned and non-forfeitable by a Recipient over a period of five
years at the rate of one-fifth per year commencing on the date which is one year
after the date of the grant of such Award. As Plan Shares become earned and
non-forfeitable, any cash dividends, returned capital and earnings thereon shall
also be earned and non-forfeitable.

                    (b) REVOCATION. Unless otherwise permitted by applicable
laws and regulations, any Plan Shares and any cash dividends, returned capital
and earnings thereon that have not been earned and are not non-forfeitable in
accordance with Section 7.01(a) of this Agreement shall be forfeited in the
event that (i) a Recipient who is a Director ceases to serve on the Board or
(ii) a Recipient who is not a Director of the Bank ceases to be an Employee of
the Bank, except as otherwise provided in subsection (c) of this Section 7.01.

                    (c) EXCEPTION FOR TERMINATIONS DUE TO DEATH OR DISABILITY.
All Plan Shares and cash dividends, returned capital and earnings thereon
subject to an Award held by a Recipient whose service as a Director or Employee
of the Corporation, the Bank or a Subsidiary terminates due to (i) death or (ii)
disability (as determined by the Committee) shall be deemed fully earned and
non-forfeitable as of the later of the Recipient's last day of service as a
Director or as an Employee and shall be distributed as soon as practicable
thereafter.

         7.02       DISTRIBUTION OF PLAN SHARES.

                    (a) TIMING OF DISTRIBUTIONS: GENERAL RULE. Except as
otherwise provided in this Agreement, Plan Shares shall be distributed to the
Recipient or his or her Beneficiary, as the case may be, as soon as practicable
after they have been earned, together with any cash, dividends, returned capital
and earnings thereon with respect to such Plan Shares that have been earned.

                    (b) FORM OF DISTRIBUTION. All distributions of Plan Shares,
together with any shares representing stock dividends, shall be distributed in
the form of Common Shares. No fractional shares shall be distributed. Payments
representing cash dividends, returned capital and earnings thereon shall be made
in cash.

                    (c) WITHHOLDING. The Trustee may withhold from any cash
payment made under this Plan sufficient amounts to cover any applicable
withholding and employment taxes and, if the amount of such cash payment is not
sufficient, the Trustee may require the Recipient or Beneficiary to pay to the
Trustee the amount required to be withheld as a condition of delivering the Plan
Shares. The Trustee shall pay over to the Bank or the Subsidiary which employs
or employed such Recipient or which the Recipient serves or served as a
Director, any such amount withheld from or paid by the Recipient or Beneficiary.

of all applicable laws and regulations shall have been met.

         7.03 VOTING OF PLAN SHARES. All Common Shares held by the Trustee in
the Plan Share Reserve which have not yet been earned by a Recipient pursuant to
Section 7.01 of this Agreement shall be voted by the Trustee. A Recipient shall
be entitled to direct the voting of Plan Shares which have been earned pursuant
to Section 7.01 of this Agreement but have not yet been distributed to him.

         in making such investment, the Trustee is authorized to purchase Common
         Shares from the Corporation or from any other source. Such Common
         Shares so purchased may be outstanding, newly issued or treasury
         shares;

                    (b) To invest any Trust assets not otherwise invested in

         the Trust);

                    (e) To hold cash without interest in such amounts as may be
