2.

      provided that any individual whose election or nomination for election as a
      member of the Company Board was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2⁄3) of the
      Continuing Directors then in office shall be considered a Continuing
      Director.





It
      is the
      understanding of the parties that the merger or consolidation of the Bank with

84





c.           
      “Just
      Cause”.  As used
      in this Agreement,“Just Cause” shall exist when there has been a
      determination by GCB’s or the Bank’s Board of Directors in its sole
      discretion that there shall have occurred one or more of the following events
      with respect to the Executive:





(1)           
      dishonesty arising from or relating to Executive’s position;





(2)           
      commission of an act that causes or that probably will cause economic damage
      to
      the Company or injury to their business reputation arising from or relating
      to
      Executive’s position;





(3)           
      misconduct arising from or relating to Executive’s position;

                to perform stated duties;

      similar offenses) or final cease and desist order; or





(7)           
      breach of any provision of this Agreement.





d.           
      Involuntary
      Termination After Change in Control.  Notwithstanding any
      provision herein to the contrary, if, in connection with or within twelve (12)
      months after any “Change in Control” of the Company, the Executive’s employment
      under this Agreement is terminated by the Company without the Executive’s prior
      written consent and for a reason other than Just Cause, the Executive shall
      be
      paid an amount equal to one (1) times his base annual salary, less that amount
      of base salary actually paid after the Change in Control and subject to ordinary
      tax withholdings, provided Executive executes a waiver and release agreement
      regarding employment related claims in a form satisfactory to the Company;
      however, Executive will not receive this payment if the Company was placed
      in
      conservatorship or receivership in connection with such Change in Control and
      the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith that the Change
      in Control was directed by or otherwise required by the FDIC.  In no
      event, may the aggregate amount payable hereunder equal or exceed the difference
      between (i) the product of 2.99 times the Executive’s “base amount” as defined
      in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder, and
      (ii) the sum of any other parachute payments (as defined under Section
      280G(b)(2) of the Code) that the Executive receives on account of the change
      in
      control.  Such amount shall be paid in a lump sum, less applicable tax
      withholdings within ten (10) days of the effective date of the waiver and
      release agreement.





e.            Voluntary Termination
      After
      Change in Control.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this
      Agreement to the contrary, the Executive may voluntarily terminate his
      employment under this Agreement within twelve (12) months following a Change
      in
      Control of GCB or the Bank if “Good Reason” for such termination exists that is
      not corrected within 30 days following written notice thereof to the Company
      by
      the Executive, such notice to state with specificity the basis upon which Good
      Reason exists.  In the event, Good Reason exists and it is not
      corrected,the Executive
      shall thereupon be entitled to receive the payment described in Paragraph 2(d)
      of this Agreement once again provided that Executive executes
      waiver
      and release agreement regarding employment related claims in a form satisfactory
      to the Company; however, Executive will not receive this payment if the
      Company was placed in conservatorship or receivership in connection with such
      Change in Control and the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good
      faith that the Change in Control was directed by or otherwise required by the
      FDIC.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean,
      unless done with the consent of the Executive, the assignment of duties
      materially inconsistent with the Executive’s position as the officer in charge
      of Risk and Operations; or his duties and responsibilities immediately prior
      to
      the Change in Control; or a material reduction in the Executive’s base salary as
      in effect at the time of the Change in Control; or the Company’s requiring the
      Executive to be based anywhere other than within thirty (30) miles of the
      Executive’s office location at the time of the Change in Control, except for
      required travel on the Company’s business to an extent substantially consistent
      with the Executive’s business travel obligations for his position.





f.           
Tax
      Issues.In the
      event that the severance benefits payable to the Executive under this section
      or
      any other payments or benefits received or to be received by the Executive
      from
      the Company (whether payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, any other
      plan, agreement or arrangement with the Company) or any corporation
      (“Affiliate”) affiliated with the Company within the meaning of Section 1504 of
      the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), in the advice of tax
      counsel selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Executive,
      constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the
      Code, such severance benefits shall be reduced to an amount the present value
      of
      which (when combined with the present value of any other payments or benefits
      otherwise received or to be received by the Executive from theCompany
      (or an Affiliate) that are
      deemed “parachute payments”) is equal to $1 less than the total amount permitted
      under Section 280(b)(2) without triggering such tax, notwithstanding any other
      provision to the contrary in this Agreement.  The severance





85





benefits
      shall not be reduced to the
      extent that (A) the Executive shall have effectively waived his receipt or
      enjoyment of any such payment or benefit which triggered the applicability
      of
      this section, or (B) in the opinion of tax advisor, the severance benefits
      (in
      their full amount or as partially reduced, as the case may be) plus all other
      payments or benefits which constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of
      Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code are reasonable compensation for services actually
      rendered, within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4) of the Code, and such
      payments are deductible by the Company.  The Base Amount shall include
      every type and form of compensation includable in the Executive’s gross income
      in respect of his employment by the Company (or an Affiliate), except to the
      extent otherwise provided in temporary or final regulations promulgated under
      Section 280G(b) of the Code.  For purposes of this section only, a
      Change in Control shall have the meaning of a “change in ownership or control”
as set forth in Section 280G(b) of the Code and any temporary or final
      regulations promulgated thereunder.  The present value of any non-cash
      benefit or any deferred cash payment shall be determined by the Company’s
      independent auditors in accordance with the principles of Sections 280G(b)(3)
      and (4) of the Code.





In
      the event that Section 280G, or any
      successor statute, is repealed, this Section shall cease to be effective on
      the
      effective date of such repeal.  The parties to this Agreement
      recognize that regulations or interpretations under Section 280G of the Code
      may
      affect the amounts that may be paid under this Agreement and agree that, upon
      issuance of such regulations or interpretations, this Agreement may be deemed
      modified as in good faith deemed necessary in light of the provisions of such
      regulations to achieve the purposes of this Agreement, and that consent to
      such
      modifications shall not be unreasonably withheld.

      to any person or entity outside The Company, for any reason or purpose
      whatsoever, unless the Company shall have given its written consent to such
      disclosure. Executive further agrees that the Executive shall not during the
      period set forth above use in any manner other than for and in the course of
      Executive’s furtherance of the Company’s business, any Confidential Information
      or Materials of The Company for Executive’s own purposes or for the benefit of
      any other person or entity except the Company, whether such use consists of
      the
      duplication, removal, oral use or disclosure, or the transfer of any
      Confidential Information or Materials in any manner, or such other unauthorized
      use in whatever manner, unless the Company shall have given its prior written
      consent to such use. The restrictions set forth in this paragraph are in
      addition to and not in lieu of any obligations of Executive provided by law

      obligations Executive may owe under statutes governing trade secrets.

      limitation the Company’s confidential, proprietary information and trade secrets
      and client good-will, which represents a significant portion of the Company’s
      net worth and in which the Company has a property
      interest).  Executive acknowledges and agrees that, in the event that
      he breaches any of the covenants set forth in this Section, the Company may

      necessary (and only to such extent necessary) to render such covenants
      reasonable, valid, and enforceable in all respects.

      does not relate to any invention for which (i) no equipment, supplies,
      facilities or trade secret information of the Company was used and which was
      developed entirely on the Executive’s own time and which does not relate (A)
      directly to the business of the Company, or (B) to the Company’s actual or
      demonstrably anticipated research or development; or (ii) does not result in
      any
      work performed by the Executive for the Company.

The
      Executive’s or the Company’s failure
      to insist upon strict compliance with any provisions hereof or any other
