               Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) is or becomes the
               beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange

| | (v) | consummation of a reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale of all or
               substantially all the assets of the Bank or Company or similar transaction
               occurs (each a Business Combination) that results in a change in
               control. A Business Combination will not be deemed to result in a change in
               control if: (A) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities
               who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the voting stock immediately
               prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or indirectly,

               entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the resulting entity
               from the Business Combination (including, without limitation, an entity, which
               as a result of such transaction, owns the Bank or Company or all or
               substantially all of the Banks or Companys assets either directly or
               through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions of such
               voting power as their ownership of the voting stock immediately prior to the
               Business Combination, and (B) at least a majority of the members of the
               board of directors of the resulting entity from the Business Combination were
               members of the Incumbent Board or Bank Incumbent Board, respectively, at the

| | (vi) | a proxy statement shall be distributed soliciting proxies from stockholders of
               the Company, by someone other than the current management of the Company,

               consolidation of the Company or Bank or similar transaction with one or more
               corporations as a result of which the outstanding shares of the class of
               securities then subject to such plan or transaction are exchanged for or
               converted into cash or property or securities not issued by the Company, and
               such proxy statement proposal is approved by the shareholders of the Company, or

| | (vii) | a tender offer is made and completed for 20% or more of the outstanding
               securities of the Company.
| | ----- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | (c) | Executive shall not have the right to receive termination benefits pursuant to
               Section 3 hereof upon Termination for Cause. The term Termination for
               Cause shall mean termination because of Executives personal
               dishonesty, incompetence, willful misconduct, any breach of fiduciary duty
               involving personal profit, intentional failure to perform stated duties, willful
               violation of any law, rule or regulation (other than traffic violations or
               similar offenses) or final cease and desist order, or material breach of this
               Agreement. In determining incompetence, the acts or omissions shall be measured
               against standards generally prevailing in the savings institutions industry.
               Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall not be deemed to have been
               Terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to him a
               copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than a
               majority of the Board at a meeting of the Board called and held for that purpose
               (after reasonable notice to Executive and an opportunity for him, together with
               counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that in the good faith opinion
               of the Board, Executive was guilty of conduct justifying Termination for Cause
               and specifying the particulars thereof in detail. Executive shall not have the
               right to

               for Cause unless otherwise provided in such compensation plan, arrangement,
               program or grant.
| |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 3. | Termination Benefits.
| | -- | ---------------------

| | (a) | Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, followed at any time during the term
               of this Agreement by the involuntary termination of Executives employment,
               other than for disability or a Termination for Cause, or Executives
               voluntary termination of employment for Good Reason, and subject to the terms
               and conditions of Sections 9, 17 and 18, the Bank or its successor shall pay
               Executive, or in the event of his subsequent death, his beneficiary or
               beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be, as severance pay or liquidated
               damages, or both, a sum equal to Executives three (3) preceding
               years compensation, which three (3) year period shall end on the last day
               of the month immediately preceding the month in which Executives Date of
               Termination (defined below in Section 4) occurs, or, if such amount is greater,
               the last day of the month immediately preceding the date of the Change in
               Control. For purposes of the preceding sentence, compensation shall include the
               amount of base salary which Executive received during the applicable period
               (determined prior to any reduction which gave rise to Executives voluntary
               termination for Good Reason) plus a target annual cash bonus amount for each
               calendar year commencing within the applicable period, which target annual cash
               bonus amount for each such year shall be equal to the target annual bonus amount
               established for Executive with respect to such year (regardless of whether the
               actual annual cash bonus payment for any such year was less than or more than
               such target annual cash bonus amounts, and without proration). Subject to any
               delay required by Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
               (the Code), such payments shall be made in a lump sum within five
               (5) business days of Executives Date of Termination relating to such
               termination of employment, unless Executive has made a prior election (in
               accordance with procedures established by the Committee) to have such payments
               made in thirty-six (36) monthly installments (without interest) beginning
               with the month following the month of Executives termination.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | (b) | Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Bank or the Company followed
               at any time during the term of this Agreement by Executives voluntary
               termination of employment for Good Reason or involuntary termination of
               employment, other than for disability or a Termination for Cause, the Bank or
               its successor will cause to be continued medical, dental, disability and life
               insurance coverage substantially identical (including coverage amounts, co-pays,
               deductible amounts and maximum out-of-pocket amounts) to the coverage maintained
               by the Bank for Executive and his dependents prior to his termination, provided,
               however, that such coverage shall be deemed to be substantially
               identical if it represents coverage provided by the Banks successor
               to its full-time employees. Executive shall be obligated to continue to pay on a
               monthly basis, the portion of the cost of such insurance coverage that he would
               be required to pay if his employment continued. Such continuing insurance and
               payment arrangements shall continue until the earlier of: (i) the date
               Executive (or his spouse, in the event of Executives death) fails to remit
               to the Bank or its successor the required monthly premium amount for such
               insurance coverage within a thirty (30) day grace period of when such
               payment is due; (ii) the date Executive obtains insurance coverage from
               another employer that is not less than that provided by the Bank or its
               successor; (iii) the date of Executives death; (iv) age 65; or
               (v) 60 months from the Date of Termination. Executives

| |  | death shall be
               considered a qualifying event under COBRA (or any similar or successor provision
               granting surviving spouses and dependents the right to continue medical and
               dental coverage) such that Executives spouse and dependents may elect to
               continue coverage at the same premium as in effect on the date of
               Executives death; provided that effective as of the first anniversary of
               Executives death, the premium shall be the COBRA premium applicable to
               such coverage. If such continuing insurance coverage has not yet terminated in
               accordance with (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this section, at the end of such 60
               month period, Executive shall have the right to further continue medical and/or
               dental coverage for himself and for his dependents until age 65 unless he dies
               prior to age 65, in which case his spouse may elect to continue medical and
               dental coverage for a period of one (1) year following his death. Executive
               can elect such additional period of coverage by giving notice to the Bank or its
               successor at least thirty (30) days prior to the date such coverage would
               otherwise terminate. In such instance, Executive shall be obligated to pay an
               amount for such coverage each month equal to the COBRA premium rate
               corresponding to the amount of such coverage. Failure by Executive to remit the
               required payment amount within a thirty (30) day grace period of when such
               payment is due will result in the extended insurance coverage being terminated.

| | (c) | In addition to the other benefits provided by this Section 3, Executive
               shall be entitled to a lump-sum payment of his accrued vacation benefits through
               the date of Executives termination. Executive shall also be entitled to
               all other payments or benefits to which he may be entitled under the terms of
               any applicable compensation arrangement or benefit, or fringe benefit plan,
               program or grant.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | (d) | Notwithstanding the preceding paragraphs of this Section 3, in the event it
               shall be determined that any payment or distribution of any type to or for the
               benefit of Executive by the Bank, any of its affiliates, or any person who
               acquires ownership or effective control of the Bank or Company or ownership of a
               substantial portion of the Banks or Companys assets (within the
               meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and the regulations thereunder) or any
               affiliate of such person, whether paid or payable or distributed or
               distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (the
               Total Payments), is subject to the excise tax imposed by
               Section 4999 of the Code or any similar successor provision or any interest
               or penalties with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any
               such interest and penalties, are collectively referred to as the Excise
               Tax), then, except in the case of a De Minimis Excess Amount (as described
               below), Executive shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a
               Gross-Up Payment) in an amount such that after payment by Executive
               of all taxes imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment (including any federal, state and
               local income, payroll or excise taxes and any interest or penalties imposed with
               respect to such taxes), Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment
               equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the Total Payments (not including any
               Gross-Up Payment).
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In
the event that the amount by which the present value of the Total Payments which
constitute parachute payments (within the meaning of Section 280G of the
Code ) (the Parachute Payments) exceeds three (3) times Executives
base amount (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code) (the
Base Amount) is less than 3% of the amount determined under Section 3(a)
of this Agreement, such excess shall be deemed to be a De Minimis Excess
Amount and Executive shall not be entitled to a Gross-Up Payment. In such an
instance, the Parachute Payments shall be reduced to an amount (the Non-Triggering
Amount), the value of

5

---

which is one dollar ($1.00) less than an amount equal to three
(3) times Executives Base Amount; provided that such reduction shall not be made
unless the Non-Triggering Amount would be greater than the aggregate value of the
Parachute Payments (without such reduction) minus the amount of Excise Tax required to be
paid by Executive thereon. The reduction required hereby shall be made by reducing the
amount payable under Section 3(a) of this Agreement.

All
determinations as to the portion, if any, of the Total Payments which constitute Parachute
Payments, whether a Gross-Up Payment is required, the amount of such Gross-Up Payment, the
amount of any reduction, and any amounts relevant to the foregoing paragraphs of this
Section 3(d) shall be made by an independent accounting or nationally recognized
compensation consulting firm selected by the Bank (the Firm), in consultation
with counsel selected by the Bank, which firm and counsel may be, but need not be, the
accounting firm or counsel then regularly retained by the Bank. The Firm shall provide its
determination (the Determination), together with detailed supporting
calculations, regarding the amount of any Gross-Up Payment and any other relevant matter,
both to the Bank and Executive, within five (5) days of a date of termination, if
applicable, or such earlier time as requested by the Bank or Executive (if Executive
reasonably believes that any of the Total Payments may be subject to the Excise Tax). Any
Determination by the Firm shall be binding upon the Bank and Executive. As a result of
uncertainty in the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code at the time of
the initial Determination by the Firm hereunder, or as a result of a subsequent
Determination by the Internal Revenue Service or a judicial authority, it is possible that
the Bank should have made Gross-Up Payments (Underpayment), or that Gross-Up
Payments will have been made by the Bank which should not have been made
(Overpayment). In either such event, the Firm shall determine the amount of
the Underpayment or Overpayment that has occurred. In the case of the Underpayment, the
amount of such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Bank to or for the benefit of
Executive. In the case of an Overpayment, Executive shall, at the direction and expense of
the Bank, take such steps as are reasonably necessary (including the filing of returns and
claims for refund), follow reasonable instructions from, and procedures established by,
the Bank, and otherwise reasonably cooperate with the Bank to correct such Overpayment,
including repayment of such Overpayment to the Bank.

4.    
          Notice of Termination. Any purported termination by the Bank or by
          Executive shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party
          hereto and shall be effective as of the Date of Termination. For purposes of
          this Agreement, a Notice of Termination shall mean a written notice
          which shall indicate the specific termination provision of this Agreement relied
          upon and shall set forth in detail the facts and circumstances claimed to
          provide a basis for termination of Executives employment under the
          provision so indicated. Date of Termination shall mean the date
          specified in the Notice of Termination (which, in the case of a Termination for
          Cause, shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date such Notice of
          Termination is given, provided that the Board may remove Executive from his
          positions and limit his duties and authority during such period without such
          action being the basis for a voluntary termination for Good Reason by
          Executive); provided that if, within thirty (30) days after any Notice of
          Termination is given, the party receiving such Notice of Termination notifies
          the other party that a dispute exists concerning the termination, the Date of
          Termination shall be the date on which the dispute is finally determined, either
          by mutual written agreement of the parties, by a binding arbitration award, or
          by a final judgment, order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction (the

6

---

time for appeal therefrom having expired and no appeal having been perfected)
          and provided further that the Date of Termination shall be extended by a notice
          of dispute only if such notice is given in good faith and the party giving such
          notice pursues the resolution of such dispute with reasonable diligence.
          Notwithstanding the pendency of any such dispute, the Bank will continue to pay
          Executive his full compensation in effect when the notice giving rise to the
          dispute was given (including, but not limited to, base salary) and continue him
          as a participant in all compensation, benefit and insurance plans in which he
          was participating when the notice of dispute was given, until the dispute is
          finally resolved in accordance with this Agreement. Amounts paid under this
          Section 4 are in addition to all other amounts due under this Agreement and
          shall not be offset against or reduce any other amounts due under this
          Agreement.

5.    
          Source of Payments. It is intended by the parties hereto that all
          payments provided in this Agreement shall be paid in cash or check from the
          general funds of the Bank. The Company, however, guarantees payment and
          provision of all amounts and benefits due hereunder to Executive, and if such
          amounts and benefits due from the Bank are not timely paid or provided by the
          Bank, such amounts and benefits shall be paid or provided by the Company.

6.    
          Effect on Prior Agreements and Existing Benefit Plans. This Agreement
          contains the entire understanding between the parties hereto and supersedes any
          prior agreement between the Bank and Executive, except that this Agreement shall
          not affect or operate to reduce any benefit or compensation inuring to Executive
          of a kind elsewhere provided. No provision of this Agreement shall be
          interpreted to mean that Executive is subject to receiving fewer benefits than
          those available to him without reference to this Agreement.

7.    
          No Attachment.

(a)    
          Except as required by law, no right to receive payments under this Agreement
          shall be subject to anticipation, commutation, alienation, sale, assignment,
          encumbrance, charge, pledge, or hypothecation, or to execution, attachment,
          levy, or similar process or assignment by operation of law, and any attempt,
          voluntary or involuntary, to effect any such action shall be null, void, and of
          no effect.

(b)    
          This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, Executive,
          the Bank and their respective successors and assigns. The Bank shall require any
          successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, reorganization,
          consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, liquidation, or otherwise) to
          all or a substantial portion of its assets, by agreement in form and substance
          reasonably satisfactory to the Executive, expressly to assume and agree to
          perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Bank
          would be required to perform this Agreement if no such succession had taken
          place. Regardless of whether such an agreement is executed, this Agreement shall
          be binding upon any successor of the Bank in accordance with the operation of
          law, and such successor shall be deemed the Bank for purposes of
          this Agreement.

8.    
          Modification and Waiver.

(a)    
          This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument in writing
          signed by the parties hereto.

7

---

(b)    
          No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor
          shall there be any estoppel against the enforcement of any provision of this
          Agreement, except by written instrument of the party charged with such waiver or
          estoppel. No such written waiver shall be deemed a continuing waiver unless
          specifically stated therein, and each such waiver shall operate only as to the
          specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term
          or condition for the future or as to any act other than that specifically
          waived.

9.    
          Required Regulatory Provisions.

(a)    
          The Bank may terminate Executives employment at any time, but any
          termination by the Bank, other than for disability or Termination for Cause,
          shall not prejudice Executives right to compensation or other benefits
          under this Agreement. Executive shall not have the right to receive compensation
          or other benefits for any period after Termination for Cause as defined in
          Section 2(c) hereinabove.

(b)    
          If Executive is suspended from office and/or temporarily prohibited from
          participating in the conduct of the Banks affairs by a notice served under
          Section 8(e)(3) (12 USC Section 1818(e)(3)) or 8(g)(1) (12 USC
          Section 1818(g)(1)) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended from
          time to time (the FDIA), the Banks obligations under this
          Agreement shall be suspended as of the date of service, unless stayed by
          appropriate proceedings. If the charges in the notice are dismissed, the Bank
          may in its discretion (i) pay Executive all or part of the compensation
          withheld while their contract obligations were suspended and (ii) reinstate
          (in whole or in part) any of the obligations which were suspended.

(c)    
          If Executive is removed and/or permanently prohibited from participating in the
          conduct of the Banks affairs by an order issued under Section 8(e)(4)
          (12 USC Section 1818(e)(4)) or 8(g)(1) (12 USC Section 1818(g)(1)) of
          the FDIA, all obligations of the Bank under this Agreement shall terminate as of
          the effective date of the order, but vested rights of the contracting parties
          shall not be affected.

(d)    
          If the Bank is in default as defined in Section 3(x)(1) (12 USC
          Section 1813(x)(1)) of the FDIA, all obligations of the Bank under this
          Agreement shall terminate as of the date of default, but this paragraph shall
          not affect any vested rights of the contracting parties.

(e)    
          All obligations of the Bank under this Agreement shall be terminated, except to
          the extent determined that continuation of the Agreement is necessary for the
          continued operation of the Bank, (i) by the Federal Deposit Insurance
          Corporation (FDIC), at the time FDIC enters into an agreement to
          provide assistance to or on behalf of the Bank under the authority contained in
          Section 13(c) (12 USC Section 1823(c)) of the FDIA; or (ii) by
          the OTS at the time the OTS or its District Director approves a supervisory
          merger to resolve problems related to the operations of the Bank or when the
          Bank is determined by the OTS or FDIC to be in an unsafe or unsound condition.
          Any rights of the parties that have already vested, however, shall not be
          affected by such action.

10.    
          Reinstatement of Benefits Under 9(b). In the event Executive is suspended
          and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the conduct of the
          Banks affairs by a notice described in Section 9(b) hereof (the
          Notice) during the term of this Agreement and a Change in Control,
          as defined herein, occurs, the Bank will assume its obligation to pay and
          Executive will be entitled to receive all of the termination benefits provided
          for under Section 3 of this Agreement upon the Banks receipt of a
          dismissal of charges in the Notice.

11.    
          Severability. If, for any reason, any provision of this Agreement, or any
          part of any provision, is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any
          other provision of this Agreement or any part of such provision not held so
          invalid, and each such other provision and part thereof shall to the full extent
          consistent with law continue in full force and effect.

12.    
          Construction; Headings for Reference Only. The language used in this
          Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by Bank and Executive to
          express their mutual intent and no rule of strict construction shall be applied
          against any person. Wherever from the context it appears appropriate, each term
          stated in either the singular or plural shall include the singular and the
          plural, and the pronouns stated in either the masculine, the feminine or the
          neuter gender shall include the masculine, feminine or neuter. The headings of
          the sections of this Agreement are for reference purposes only and do not define
          or limit, and shall not be used to interpret or construe the contents of this
          Agreement. The headings of sections and paragraphs herein are included solely
          for convenience of reference and shall not control the meaning or interpretation
          of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

13.    
          Governing Law. This Agreement and its validity, interpretation,
          performance and enforcement shall be governed by Federal law.

14.    
          Arbitration. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection
          with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in accordance
          with the applicable rules of the American Arbitration Association then in
          effect. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrators award in any court
          having jurisdiction; provided, however, that the Bank shall be entitled to seek
          specific performance of Executives obligations under Section 16 below in
          an applicable court and Executive shall be entitled to seek in the applicable
          court the specific performance of his right to be paid until the Date of
          Termination during the pendency of any dispute or controversy arising under or
          in connection with this Agreement.

15.    
          Payment of Legal Fees. All reasonable legal fees paid or incurred by
          Executive pursuant to any dispute or question of interpretation relating to this
          Agreement shall be paid or reimbursed by the Bank, regardless of whether or not
          Executive is successful on the merits of such dispute or question pursuant to
          any legal judgment, arbitration or settlement. Such payments are guaranteed by
          the Company pursuant to Section 5 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
          Executive shall not be entitled to the reimbursement of legal fees and shall be
          required to return any payments of legal fees paid by the Bank on
          Executives behalf if it is determined, pursuant to any judgment,
          arbitration or settlement that Executive acted in bad faith or undertook
          frivolous litigation.

16.    
          Post-Termination Obligations.

(a)    
          During the term of this Agreement and until the earlier of this Agreements
          expiration or one (1) year after the Date of Termination, Executive shall, upon
          reasonable notice, furnish such information and assistance to the Bank as may
          reasonably be required by the Bank in connection with any litigation in which it
          or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates is, or may become, a party.

(b)    
          Except in the course of his employment and in the pursuit of the business of the
          Bank or its affiliates, Executive shall not, during the course of his
          employment, or following termination of his employment for any reason, directly
          or indirectly, disclose, publish, communicate or use on his behalf or
          anothers behalf, any Confidential Information that he has learned or
          developed while in the employ of the Bank or its affiliates, proprietary
          information or other data of the Bank or its affiliates. Executive acknowledges
          that unauthorized disclosure or use of such Confidential Information, other than
          in discharge of Executives duties, will cause Bank or its affiliates
          irreparable harm.

For
purposes of this Section, Confidential Information means trade secrets (such
as technical and non-technical data, a program, method, technique, process) and other
confidential or proprietary information concerning the products, processes, services, or
customers of Bank or its affiliates, including but not limited to: computer programs;
marketing, or organizational research and development; business or strategic plans;
financial forecasts; personnel information, including the identity of other employees of
the Bank or its affiliates, their responsibilities, competence, abilities, and
compensation; pricing and financial information; current and prospective customer lists
and information on customers or their employees; information concerning planned or pending
acquisitions or divestitures; and information concerning purchases of major equipment or
property, which information: (a) has not been made generally available to the public;
and (b) is useful or of value to the current or anticipated business, or research or
development activities of the Bank or its affiliates; or (c) has been identified to
Executive as confidential by the Bank or its affiliates, either orally or in writing.

| | (c) | During the term of this Agreement and for one (1) year after the Date of
               Termination under circumstances described in Section 2(a) hereunder (which
               period shall be tolled during a period of the continuance of any actual breach
               or violation of this Section 16(c)), Executive will not, except in the
               performance of his duties, directly or indirectly solicit, induce or encourage
               (i) any customer of the Bank or its affiliates to terminate such
               customers relationship with the Bank or its affiliates, or (ii) any
               individual who, as of the date immediately preceding the Date of Termination, is
               an employee of the Bank any of its affiliates, to terminate his or her
               relationship with the Bank or its affiliates. For purposes of this
               Section 16(c), customer means any business, entity or person
               which is or at any time during the six months prior to Executives Date of
               Termination, was a customer of the Bank or any affiliate and with which
               Executive had contact prior to the Date of Termination.

| | (d) | Executive acknowledges that the restraints and agreements herein provided are
               fair and reasonable, that enforcement of the provisions of this Section 16
               will not cause him undue hardship and that said provisions are reasonably
               necessary and commensurate with the need to protect the Bank and its affiliates
               and their legitimate and proprietary business
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | interests and property from
               irreparable harm. Therefore, Executive agrees that, in addition to any other
               remedies at law or in equity available to the Bank or its affiliates for
               Executives breach or threatened breach of this Section 16, the Bank
               or its affiliates is entitled to specific performance or injunctive relief,
               without bond, against Executive to prevent such damage or breach, and the
               existence of any claim or cause of action Executive may have against the Bank or
               its affiliates will not constitute a defense thereto.
| |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 17. | Conditions to Benefits under Section 3. Any payments or benefits made or
               provided pursuant to Section 3 are subject to Executives:
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | (i) | compliance with the provisions of Section 16 hereof (to the extent applicable);
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | (ii) | delivery to the Bank of an executed Release and Severance Agreement, which shall
               be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, with such
               changes therein or additions thereto as needed under then applicable law to give
               effect to its intent and purpose; and
| | ---- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | (iii) | delivery to the Bank of a resignation from all offices, directorships and
               fiduciary positions with the Bank, its affiliates and employee benefit plans.
| | ----- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | (b) | Notwithstanding the due date of any post-employment payments, any amounts due
               under Section 3 shall not be due until after the expiration of any revocation
               period applicable to the Release and Severance Agreement.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 18. | Code Section 409A. It is intended that any amounts payable under this
               Agreement, and the Banks and Executives exercise of authority or
               discretion hereunder, shall comply with Section 409A of the Code (including
               the Treasury regulations and other published guidance relating thereto) so as
               not to subject Executive to the payment of any interest or additional tax
               imposed under Section 409A of the Code. In furtherance of this intent,
               (a) if, due to the circumstances in existence at the time payments may
               become due to Executive under Section 3, the date of payment or the commencement
               of such payments or benefits thereunder must be delayed for six months in order
               to meet the requirements of Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code applicable to
               specified employees, then any such payment or payments or benefits
               to which Executive would otherwise be entitled during the first six months
               following the date of separation from service shall be accumulated and paid as
               of the first day of the seventh month following the date of separation from
               service, and (b) to the extent that any Treasury regulations, guidance or
               changes to Section 409A after the date of this Agreement would result in
               Executive becoming subject to interest and additional tax under
               Section 409A of the Code, the Bank and Executive agree to amend this
               Agreement in order to bring this Agreement into compliance with Code
               Section 409A.
