      FIRST
        AMENDMENT

      TO
        THE

      HOMEFEDERAL
        BANK

      DIRECTOR
        DEFERRED FEE AGREEMENT

      DATED
        NOVEMBER 22, 2005

      FOR

      DAVID
        W. LAITINEN

      


      


      THIS
        FIRST AMENDMENT is adopted this 24
        day of July, 2007, effective as of January 1, 2006, by and between HOMEFEDERAL
        BANK, a state-chartered bank located in Columbus, Indiana (the “Bank”), and
        David W. Laitinen (the “Director”).

      


      The
        Bank and Director executed the
        DIRECTOR DEFERRED FEE AGREEMENT on November 22, 2005 effective as of January
        1,
        2006 (the “Agreement”).

      


      The
        undersigned hereby amend the
        Agreement for the purpose of bringing the Agreement into compliance with
        Section
        409A of the Internal Revenue Code.  Therefore, the following changes
        shall be made:

      


      Section
        1.18 of the Agreement shall be
        deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following:

      


      
        	
                1.18

              	
                “Separation
                  from Service” means the termination of the Director’s service with the
                  Bank for reasons other than death.  Whether a Separation from
                  Service takes place is determined based on the facts and circumstances
                  surrounding the termination of the Director’s service.  A
                  Separation from Service will be considered to have occurred if
                  the Bank
                  and the Director reasonably anticipate that (1) the Director
                  will not
                  perform any services for the Bank after the Director’s termination; or
                  (2) the Director
                  will continue to provide services for the Bank following such termination
                  at an annual rate that is less than fifty percent (50%) of the
                  bona fide
                  services that were provided during the twelve (12) months immediately
                  preceding the termination.

              


      

      


      The
        following Section 1.18a shall be
        added to the Agreement immediately following Section 1.18:

      


      
        	
                1.18a

              	
                “Specified
                  Employee” means a key employee (as defined in Section 416(i) of the
                  Code without regard to paragraph 5 thereof) of the Bank if any
                  stock of
                  the Bank or any entity required to be aggregated with the Bank
                  under
                  Section 414(b) or 414(c) of the Code is publicly traded on an established
                  securities market or otherwise.

        following Sections 4.4 and 4.5
        shall be added to the Agreement immediately following Section

                  Upon Income Inclusion Under Section 409A of the Code.  Upon

                    deferred compensation plan to comply with the requirements of

                    as is
                    administratively practicable following the discovery of the plan
                    failure.

                (a)  

              	
                may
                  not accelerate the time or schedule of any distribution, except

                10.1

              	
                Amendments.  This
                  Agreement may be amended only by a written agreement signed by
                  the Bank
                  and the Director.  However, the Bank may unilaterally amend this
                  Agreement to conform with written directives to the Bank from its
                  auditors
                  or banking regulators or to comply with legislative changes or
                  tax law,
                  including without limitation Section 409A of the Code and any and
                  all
                  Treasury regulations and guidance promulgated
                  thereunder.

                  Termination Generally.  The Bank and
                  Director may terminate this Agreement at any
                  time.  Except as provided in Section 10.3, the termination of
                  this Agreement shall not cause a distribution of benefits under
                  this
                  Agreement.  Rather, after such termination benefit distributions
                  will be made at the earliest distribution event permitted under
                  Article 4
                  or Article 5.

                  Code, provided that the termination of this
                  Agreement was effected through an irrevocable action taken by the
                  Bank and
                  provided further that all distributions are made no later than
                  twelve (12)
                  months following such termination of the Agreement and that all the
                  Bank's arrangements which are substantially similar to the Agreement
                  are
                  terminated so the Director

                    the Agreement terminates; (ii) the calendar year in which the
                    amount is no
                    longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture; or (iii)
                    the first
                    calendar year in which the distribution is administratively practical;

                  (c)

                	
                  Upon
                    the Bank’s termination of this and all other account balance plans (as
                    referenced in Section 409A of the Code or the regulations thereunder),
                    provided that all distributions are made no earlier than twelve
                    (12)
                    months and no later than twenty-four (24) months following such
                    termination provided further that the termination of this Agreement
                    does
                    not occur proximate to a downturn in the financial health of
                    the Bank, and
                    provided further that the Bank does not adopt any new account
                    balance
                    plans for a minimum of three (3) years following the date of
                    such

      then
        the
        Bank may distribute the Deferral Account balance, determined as of the date
        of
        the termination of the Agreement, to the Director in a lump sum subject to
        the
        above terms. 

      


      Section
        11.10 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced by the
        following:

                Alternative
                  Action.  In the event it shall become impossible for the
                  Bank or the Plan Administrator to perform any act required by the
                  Agreement, the Bank or Plan Administrator may in its discretion
                  perform
                  such alternative act as most nearly carries out the intent and
                  purpose of
                  this Agreement and is in the best interests of the Bank.  Any
                  alternative acts shall be restricted to actions which do not violate
                  Section 409A of the Code.

              


      

      


      The

                Compliance
                  with Section 409A.  This Agreement shall at all times be
                  administered and the provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted
                  consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and
                  any and
                  all regulations thereunder, including such regulations as may be
                  promulgated after the Effective Date of this
                  Agreement.
