approved this Employment Agreement and authorized its execution and delivery to
the Executive on behalf of the Company and the Bank;

         WHEREAS, the Executive serves as the Senior Vice President and Trust
Officer of the Company and, as such, is a key executive officer of the Company
whose continued dedication, availability, advice and counsel to the Company is

         WHEREAS, the Executive serves as the Senior Vice President and Trust
Officer of the Bank and, as such, is a key executive officer of the Bank whose
continued dedication, availability, advice and counsel to the Bank is deemed
important to the Board of Directors of the Bank, the Bank and the Company;

         WHEREAS, the Company and the Bank wish to attract and retain
well-qualified executives, and it is in the best interests of the Company, the
Bank and the Executive, notwithstanding any change in control of the Company or
the Bank, to secure the services of the Executive, whose experience and
knowledge of the affairs of the Company and the Bank, and whose reputation and
contacts in the industry, are extremely valuable to the Company and the Bank;
and

         WHEREAS, the Company and the Bank consider the establishment and

its intention not to renew this Agreement.

         3. EMPLOYMENT; DUTIES, AUTHORITY, AND RESPONSIBILITIES:

            (a) During the term of employment of the Executive by the Company
and the Bank, the Executive shall devote Executive's full business time and
attention to the rendition of services as Senior Vice President and Trust
Officer of the Company and as Senior Vice President and Trust Officer of the
Bank, and to the furtherance of the best interests of the Company and the Bank,
and shall exert Executive's best efforts in the rendition of such services. The
Executive agrees that in the rendition of such services and in all aspects of
such employment Executive will comply with the policies, standards and
regulations of the Company and the Bank as from time to time established by
their respective Boards of Directors. The expenditure by the Executive of
reasonable amounts of time for charitable, professional and similar activities
shall not be deemed a breach of this Agreement provided such activities do not
materially interfere with the services to be rendered to the Company and the
Bank hereunder.

            (b) As Senior Vice President and Trust Officer of the Company and
the Bank, the Executive shall have the general powers and duties of supervision
which usually pertain to such offices and shall perform all such duties as are
properly required of Executive by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and
the Bank.

            (c) If after a Change of Control occurs, a material reduction or
limitation of the duties of the Executive that were in effect immediately prior
to the Change of Control occurs, this action shall be considered a breach of
this Agreement by the Company and the Bank. In the event of any breach of any
provision of this Agreement by the Bank which breach is not cured within ten
(10) days after written notice of the breach to the Bank by the Executive shall
entitle the Executive to terminate his employment by the Bank pursuant to this
Agreement by not less than sixty (60) days written notice to the Board of
Directors of the Bank and, at the option of Executive, to terminate his
employment by the Company pursuant to this Agreement by not less than sixty (60)
days written notice to the Board of Directors of the Company. Any such
termination by the Executive of his employment by the Bank hereunder resulting
from a breach of the terms of this Agreement shall be treated as a termination
by the Bank without cause and governed by Section 9 below, unless such breach
occurs in Contemplation of a Change of Control or within twelve (12) months
after a Change of Control, and constitutes Good Reason for the Executive to
terminate Executive's employment, in which case it shall be governed by Section
15 below.

         4. COMPENSATION: The Bank agrees to pay Executive, and Executive agrees
to accept, as compensation for all services rendered by him to the Company, the
Bank and their affiliates during the period of his employment under this
Agreement, base compensation at the annual rate of not less than $84,500, which
shall be payable in accordance with the normal payroll policies of the Bank and
shall be subject to all appropriate withholding taxes.

         5. PARTICIPATION IN BENEFIT PLANS, REIMBURSEMENT OF BUSINESS EXPENSES
AND MOVING EXPENSES:

            (a) During the term of this Agreement, Executive shall be entitled
to participate in all pension, group insurance, hospitalization, deferred
compensation, Company paid life insurance, or incentive plans, and any other
benefit plan of the Company or the Bank presently in effect or hereafter adopted
by the Company or the Bank and generally available to all employees of either
organization of senior executive status (the "Benefit Plans").

            (b) During the term of this Agreement, to the extent that such
expenditures meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code for
deductibility by the Company or the Bank for federal income tax purposes and are
substantiated by the Executive as required by the Internal Revenue Service and
policies of the Company and the Bank, the Bank shall reimburse the Executive
promptly for all expenditures (including travel, entertainment, parking,
business meetings, and the monthly costs, including dues, of maintaining
memberships at appropriate clubs, including, but not limited to, Nashville City
Club) made in accordance with rules and policies established from time to time
by the Board of Directors of the Bank in pursuance and furtherance of the
Company's and the Bank's business and good will.

            (c) During the term of this Agreement, in the event that the Company
or the Bank relocates its principal executive offices to a location more than
one hundred (100) miles from Nashville, Tennessee, or the Board of Directors of
either the Company or the Bank requires the Executive to be based anywhere more
than one hundred (100) miles from the Bank's principal executive offices, the
Bank shall pay (or reimburse the Executive for) all reasonable moving expenses
incurred by Executive relating to a change of Executive's principal residence in
connection with such relocation, provided that the Executive furnishes the Bank
with adequate records and documentary evidence for the substantiation of such
reimbursement.

         6. ILLNESS: In the event Executive is unable to perform Executive's
duties under this Agreement on a full-time basis for a period of six (6)
consecutive months by reason of illness or other physical or mental disability,
and at or before the end of such period Executive does not return to work on a
full-time basis, the Company and the Bank may jointly terminate Executive's
Employment pursuant to this Agreement without further or additional compensation
being due the Executive from the Bank pursuant to this Agreement, except that
the Executive shall be paid Executive's base compensation from the Bank at the
rate in effect at the time of Executive's termination for a period of twelve
(12) months from the date of the commencement of the Executive's inability to
perform his duties, less any disability payments payable during such time under
any disability plans maintained and paid for by the Bank, and Executive shall
continue to participate in all Benefit Plans in effect at the time of
Executive's termination for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of the
commencement of the Executive's inability to perform his duties.

         7. DEATH: In the event of the Executive's death during the term of this
Agreement, Executive's estate, legal representatives or named beneficiaries (as
directed by the Executive in writing) shall be paid Executive's base
compensation from the Bank at the rate in effect at the time of the Executive's
death under this Agreement for the period of twelve (12) months from the date of
the Executive's death, less any amounts payable to Executive's estate or
beneficiaries under life insurance policies on the life of Executive maintained
and paid for by Bank.

         8. TERMINATION BY COMPANY: Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2
above, the Board of Directors of the Company may, in its sole discretion,
terminate the Executive's employment with the Company under this Agreement at
any time in any lawful manner by not less than thirty (30) days written notice
to the Executive, in which event the Executive shall be entitled to elect to
have such termination likewise constitute a termination of Executive's
employment by the Bank. If Executive so elects, then unless such termination is
for Cause as defined in Section 10 of this Agreement or unless the Executive's
employment is terminated in Contemplation of a Change of Control or within
twelve (12) months after a Change of Control, Executive shall be entitled to the
compensation provided for in Section 9 below.

         9. TERMINATION BY BANK: Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2 of
this Agreement, the Board of Directors of the Bank may, in its sole discretion,
terminate the Executive's employment with the Bank under this Agreement at any
time in any lawful manner by not less than thirty (30) days written notice to
the Executive (or, at the Bank's option, pay for such thirty days in lieu of
notice) and in such event, unless the Bank terminates the Executive's employment
with the Bank for Cause as defined in with Section 10 of this Agreement or,
unless the Executive's employment is terminated in



                                      -60-
<PAGE>   4


Contemplation of a Change of Control or within twelve (12) months after a Change
of Control, the Executive shall be paid, during the twelve (12) months following
such termination at such times as payment was theretofore made, the base
compensation that the Executive would have been entitled to receive during such
period of time had such termination not occurred, such payments to be in
addition to any payment in lieu of notice. Furthermore, the Bank shall pay to
the Executive in equal monthly payments an amount sufficient to fully fund any
Benefit Plans of the Bank, with respect to the Executive, commencing at the
beginning of the first month following termination of Executive's employment
with the Bank pursuant to this paragraph, and ending twelve (12) months after
such termination. In the event that a payment made with respect to any benefit
plan or program would otherwise violate the terms of the plan or program, an
equivalent amount shall be paid directly to Executive. Executive shall owe no
duty to mitigate these payments, and shall not be required to obtain or attempt
to obtain alternate employment during such twelve (12) month period. If
Executive obtains other gainful employment during such twelve (12) month period,
the compensation and benefits received by Executive during said period from such
other employment shall not reduce the payments otherwise due to Executive
pursuant to this section.

         10. TERMINATION FOR CAUSE:

            (a) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, the Board of
Directors of the Company may, in its sole discretion, terminate the Executive's
employment with the Company for Cause. For the purposes of this Agreement, the
Company shall have "Cause" to terminate the Executive's employment hereunder:
(i) because of the Executive's personal dishonesty, incompetence, willful
misconduct, gross negligence, willful breach of fiduciary duty (including
involving personal profit), failure to substantially perform stated duties
described in Section 3 of this Agreement, willful violation of any material law,
rule, regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses), willful
violation of any final cease-and-desist order issued by any regulatory agency
having jurisdiction over the Company or the Bank, or material breach by the
Executive of any provision of this Agreement or any related agreement entered
into by the Executive; or (ii) if the Board of Directors of the Bank terminates
the employment of Executive with the Bank for Cause pursuant to subsection (c)
of this Section 10. For purposes of this paragraph, no act, or failure to act,
on the Executive's part shall be considered "willful" unless done, or omitted to
be done, by him not in good faith or without reasonable belief that his action
or omission was in the best interest of the Company; provided that any act or
omission to act on the Executive's behalf in reliance upon an opinion of counsel
to either the Company or the Bank shall not be deemed to be "willful."
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive shall not be deemed to have been
terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been a resolution
approved by a majority of the non-officer members of the Board of Directors of
the Company finding that, in the good faith opinion of such majority, the
Executive was guilty of conduct which is deemed to be Cause within the meaning
of this paragraph, after notice to the Executive and an opportunity for him,
together with his counsel, to be heard before such majority (with the Company
Board retaining the right to deliberate without the Executive and his counsel
present before and/or after such hearing).

            (b) If the Company terminates the Executive's employment with the
Company for Cause in accordance with Section 10(a) of this Agreement, the
Company shall have no obligation to make any further payments to or provide
benefits for the Executive, provided that the Executive shall be entitled to
receive any accrued compensation or benefits, insured or otherwise, that he
would otherwise have been eligible to receive under any Benefit Plans of the
Company through the date of such termination.

            (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, the Board of
Directors of the Bank may, in its sole discretion, terminate the Executive's
employment with the Bank for Cause. For the purposes of this Agreement, the Bank
shall have "Cause" to terminate the Executive's employment hereunder: (i)
because of the Executive's personal dishonesty, incompetence, willful
misconduct, gross negligence, willful breach of fiduciary duty (including
involving personal profit), failure to substantially perform stated duties
described in Section 3 of this Agreement, willful violation of any material law,
rule, regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses) , willful
violation of any final cease-and-desist order issued by any regulatory agency
having jurisdiction over the Company or the Bank, the imposition of any sanction
upon the Executive by any such regulatory agency, or material breach by the
Executive of any provision of this Agreement or any related agreement entered
into by the Executive; or (ii) if the Board of Directors of the Company
terminates Executive's employment with the Company for Cause pursuant to
subsection (a) of this Section 10. For purposes of this paragraph, no act, or
failure to act, on the Executive's part shall be considered "willful" unless
done, or omitted to be done, by him not in good faith or without reasonable
belief that his action or omission was in the best interest of the Bank;
provided that any act or omission to act on the Executive's behalf in reliance
upon an opinion of counsel to either the Company or the Bank shall not be deemed
to be "willful." Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive shall not be
deemed to have been terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been
a resolution approved by a majority of the non-officer members of the Board of
Directors of the Bank finding that, in the good faith opinion of such majority,
the Executive was guilty of conduct which is deemed to be Cause within the
meaning of this paragraph, after notice to the Executive and an opportunity for
him, together with his counsel to be heard before such majority (with the Bank
Board retaining the right to deliberate without the Executive and his counsel
present before and/or after such hearing).

            (d) If the Bank terminates the Executive's employment with the Bank
for Cause in accordance with Section 10(c) of this Agreement, the Bank shall
have no obligation to make any further payments to or provide benefits for the
Executive, provided that the Executive shall be entitled to receive any accrued
compensation or benefits, insured or otherwise, which Executive would otherwise
have been eligible to receive under any Benefit Plans of the Bank through the
date of such termination.

         11. TERMINATION BY THE EXECUTIVE: The Executive may terminate the
Executive's employment with the Company or with the Bank hereunder at any time
upon sixty (60) days written notice to the affected entity. If the Executive
terminates the Executive's employment with either the Company or the Bank other
than for breach of this Agreement as provided in Section 3, for Good Reason, in
Contemplation of a Change of Control or within twelve (12) months after a Change
of Control, Executive shall be deemed to have voluntarily terminated Executive's
employment with both the Company and the Bank ("Voluntary Termination"), and
thereupon the Company and the Bank shall have no obligation to make any further
payments to or provide benefits for the Executive, provided that the Executive
shall be entitled to receive any accrued compensation and benefits, insured or
otherwise, that he would otherwise have been eligible to receive under any
Benefit Plans of the Company or the Bank through the date of such termination.

         12. DEFINITION OF CHANGE OF CONTROL OF THE COMPANY: A "Change of
Control" of the Company shall mean a change of control of a nature that would be
required to be reported in response to Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A of Regulation
14A promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act") or
such item thereof which may hereafter pertain to the same subject; provided
that, and notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change of Control shall be deemed to
have occurred if (i) any person (as that term is used in Sections 13(d) and
14(d) (2) of the Exchange Act) is or becomes the beneficial owner, directly or
indirectly, of securities of the Company representing thirty-five percent (35%)
or more of the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding
securities, or (ii) the Company shall cease to be a publicly owned corporation,
as defined in the Exchange Act.



                                      -62-
<PAGE>   6


         13. DEFINITION OF CHANGE OF CONTROL OF THE BANK: A "Change of Control"
of the Bank shall mean any Change of Control of the Company, or any change or
series of changes in circumstances which result in the Company ceasing to own,
control, and vote an absolute majority of the voting securities of the Bank.

         14. TERMINATION BY COMPANY OR BANK AFTER CHANGE IN CONTROL: If a Change
of Control of the Company or a Change of Control of the Bank shall have
occurred, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. If the
Executive's Employment is terminated by the Company or the Bank within twelve
(12) months after a Change of Control of the Company, as defined in Section 12
above, or a Change of Control of the Bank, as defined in Section 13 above, or in
Contemplation of a Change of Control of either, as defined below, Executive
shall be entitled to be paid an amount equal to one (1) times the sum of
Executive's annual base cash compensation plus the annual value of Executive's
participation in all Benefit Programs in effect at the time of such termination.
At Executive's option, the sums payable pursuant to this Section will be paid in
full in a lump sum and without discount within thirty (30) days of the
termination of Executive's employment, or in equal monthly installments over
twelve (12) months. Any termination of Executive's employment hereunder during
any period of time when the Board of Directors of the Company has formed an
intent to offer the Bank for sale or to promote an acquisition of or merger of
the Company or the Bank, or when the Company has knowledge that any person(s),
entity or concern has taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a Change of
Control of the Company shall constitute a termination of Executive's employment
"In Contemplation of a Change of Control." The period of Contemplation of Change
of Control shall continue until the Board of Directors of the Company no longer
intends to promote an acquisition of or merger of the Company or the Bank, or
until in the opinion of the Company's Board of Directors, the person(s), concern
or entity has abandoned or terminated its efforts to effect a Change of Control
of the Company, as applicable. Any good faith determination by the Company's
Board of Directors that Board no longer has such an intent, or that the
person(s), concern or entity has abandoned or terminated its efforts to effect a
Change of Control of the Company shall be conclusive and binding on the
Executive. Such determination shall be promptly communicated to the Executive in
writing by the Chief Executive of the Company or Chairman of the Board of the
Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any termination of the Executive by the
Company or by the Bank within ninety (90) days prior to a Change of Control of
the Company shall be conclusively presumed to have been in Contemplation of
Change of Control.

         15. TERMINATION BY EXECUTIVE FOR GOOD REASON; During the term of
Executive's employment hereunder, the Executive may terminate his employment
with both the Company and the Bank if the Executive has Good Reason, as defined
below. Termination by the Executive of Executive's employment with either entity
shall be deemed termination with both. For purposes of this Agreement, "Good
Reason" shall mean:

                  (i) The assignment of duties to the Executive by the Company
or the Bank which (1) are significantly different from the Executive's duties
immediately prior to the Change of Control, or (2) result in the Executive
having significantly less authority and/or responsibility than Executive had as
an executive officer of the Company or the Bank prior to the Change of Control,
without the express written consent of Executive;

                  (ii) The removal of the Executive from or any failure to
re-elect Executive to the positions set forth in Section 3 above, except in
connection with a termination of his employment by the Company or the Bank for
Cause or Executive's resignation other than for Good Reason.

                  (iii) A reduction of the Executive's base salary as in effect
on the date of the Change of Control, unless the reduction in the Executive's
salary is waived in writing by the Executive;



                                      -63-
<PAGE>   7


                  (iv) The failure of the Company and the Bank collectively to
provide the Executive with substantially the same fringe benefits (including
paid vacations) that were provided to Executive immediately prior to the Change
of Control, or with a package of fringe benefits that, though one or more of
such benefits may vary from those in effect immediately prior to such Change of
Control, is substantially comparable in all material respects to such fringe
benefits taken as a whole; or

                  (v) Requiring the Executive to perform a significant part of
Executive's duties in locations more than one hundred (100) miles from
Nashville, Tennessee.

Further, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the
Executive may terminate his employment without Good Reason at any time within
ninety (90) days after a Change of Control shall have occurred.

         16. PAYMENTS ON TERMINATION: Upon termination of Executive's employment
by the Company or the Bank, the Company and the Bank shall have the following
payment obligations to Executive:

            (a) If the Executive's Employment is terminated due to illness of
the Executive, the provisions of Section 6 shall apply.

            (b) If the Executive's Employment is terminated due to the death of
the Executive, the provisions of Section 7 shall apply.

            (c) If the Executive's Employment is terminated by the Company other
than for Cause, and not In Contemplation of a Change of Control of the Company
or the Bank or within twelve months after a Change of Control of the Company or
the Bank, the provisions of Section 8 shall apply, and therefore the payment
provisions of Section 9 apply.

            (d) If the Executive's Employment is terminated by the Bank other
than for Cause, and not In Contemplation of a Change of Control of the Company
or the Bank or within twelve months after a Change of Control of the Company or
the Bank, the provisions of Section 9 shall apply.

            (e) If the Executive's Employment is terminated by the Company for
Cause, or by the Bank for Cause, the provisions of Section 10 shall apply.

            (f) If the Executive's Employment is terminated by the Executive as
a result of a breach of the agreement by the Company or the Bank, the provisions
of Section 3 apply, and therefore the payment provisions of Section 9 apply.

            (g) In the event of a Voluntary Termination of Executive's
Employment as defined in Section 11, the provisions of Section 11 apply.

            (h) If the Executive's Employment is terminated by the Company or
the Bank within twelve (12) months after a Change of Control of the Company, as
defined in Section 12 above, or a Change of Control of the Bank, as defined in
Section 13 above, or in Contemplation of a Change of Control of either, as
defined in Section 14, the provisions of Section 14 shall apply.

            (i) If the Executive's Employment is terminated by the Executive for
Good Reason, as defined in Section 15 above, the Executive's employment with the
Company and with the Bank shall be deemed to have been terminated without Cause
by the Company and by the Bank at the time of such termination by Executive for
Good Reason. If such termination is during a period of Contemplation of Change
of Control, or within twelve (12) months after a Change of Control, the
provisions of Section 14 shall apply.



                                      -64-
<PAGE>   8


            (j) Termination of Executive's Employment by the Company or by the
Bank or by the Executive shall be communicated by written Notice of Termination
to the other parties hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of
Termination" shall mean a notice which shall indicate the specific termination
provision(s) in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable
detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of
employment under the provision so indicated.

         17. CONFIDENTIALITY: In the course of the Executive's employment, the
Company and the Bank may disclose or make known to the Executive, and the
Executive may be given access to or may become acquainted with, certain
information, including but not limited to confidential information which relates
to or is useful in the businesses of the Company and the Bank and which is not
available from public records or other generally available sources
(collectively, "Confidential Information"), and which the Company or the Bank
consider proprietary and desire to maintain confidential. During the term of
this Agreement and at all times thereafter, the Executive shall not in any
manner, either directly or indirectly, divulge, disclose or communicate to any
person or firm, except to legal counsel for the Company or the Bank or otherwise
to or for the benefit of the Company or the Bank as directed by the Company or
the Bank, and except to the Executive's legal counsel in connection with the
resolution of any dispute between the Executive and the Company or the Bank
under this Agreement, any of the Confidential Information which Executive may
have acquired in the course of or as an incident to Executive's employment by
the Company or the Bank, the parties agreeing that such Confidential Information
affects the successful and effective conduct of the business and their goodwill
of the Company and the Bank, and that any material breach of the terms of this
Section 17 is a material breach of this Agreement.

         18. COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE. During the Term of this Agreement and, if
Executive terminates Executive's employment in a Voluntary Termination or for
Good Reason, or if the Company or the Bank terminate Executive's employment in
Contemplation of a Change of Control, or within twelve (12) months after a
Change of Control, or for Cause, for the period of twelve (12) months following
the termination of Executive's employment with the Company or the Bank,
Executive agrees that Executive will not directly or indirectly own, become
interested in, or become involved in any manner whatsoever in any business which
is similar or competitive with any aspect of the business of the Company or the
Bank as conducted at the time of such termination. Without limiting the
foregoing, Executive agrees during the applicable period not to engage in the
Banking or Leasing businesses, whether as an owner, partner, director, officer,
employee, consultant, stockholder, agent, salesman, or in any other capacity for
any person, partnership, firm, corporation or other entity without the express
written consent of the President of the Company. Executive specifically
acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing restriction on competition with the
Company and the Bank will not prevent Executive from obtaining gainful
employment following termination of Executive's employment with the Company and
the Bank, and is a reasonable restriction upon Executive's ability to compete
with the Company and the Bank, given the economic benefits afforded to Executive

         21. REMEDIES. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the breach or
threatened breach of any of the provisions of Sections 17, 18, 19 and 20 of this
Agreement will cause irreparable harm to the Company and the Bank, and cannot be
adequately compensated by the payment of damages. Accordingly, Executive
covenants and agrees that the Company and the Bank, in addition to any other
rights or remedies which they may have, will be entitled to such equitable and
injunctive relief as may be available from any court of competent jurisdiction
to restrain Executive from breaching or threatening to breach any of the
provisions of this Sections 17, 18, 19 and 20, without posting bond or other
surety. Such right to obtain injunctive relief may be exercised at the option of
the Company or the Bank in addition to, concurrently with, prior to, after, or
in lieu of the exercise of any other rights or remedies which the Company or the
Bank may have as a result of any such breach or threatened breach. In addition
to all other remedies, in the event of the breach or threatened breach of any of
the provisions of Sections 17, 18, 19 or 20 of this Agreement, the Company and
Bank shall be relieved of any obligation to continue payments to the Executive
pursuant to the provisions of this agreement.

institution.

            (a) If the Executive is suspended and/or temporarily prohibited from

reinstate their obligations which were suspended.

            (b) If the Executive is removed and/or permanently prohibited from
