                  any other executive officer of the Bank. Nothing paid to the
                  Executive under any plan or arrangement presently in effect or
                  made available in the future shall be deemed to be in lieu of
                  the salary payable to the Executive pursuant to Section 4(a)
                  hereof.

         c)       During the term of this Agreement, the Executive shall be
                  entitled to paid annual vacation in accordance with the
                  policies as established from time to time by the Boards of
                  Directors of the Employers. The Executive shall not be
                  entitled to receive any additional compensation from the
                  Employers for failure to take a vacation, nor shall the
                  Executive be able to accumulate unused vacation time from one
                  year to the next, except to the extent authorized by the
                  Boards of Directors of the Employers.

         d)       In the event the Executive's employment is terminated due to
                  Disability or Retirement, the Employers shall provide
                  continued life, medical, disability coverage substantially
                  identical to the coverage maintained by the Employers for the
                  Executive immediately prior to his termination. Such coverage
                  shall cease upon the expiration of the remaining term of this
                  Agreement in the event of retirement and in three (3) years in
                  the event of Disability.

         e)       In the event of the Executive's death during the term of this
                  Agreement, the Employers shall provide to the Executive's
                  spouse and children continued medical coverage substantially
                  identical to the coverage maintained by the Employers for the
                  Executive immediately prior to his death for a period of no
                  less than three (3) years.

         f)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in sub-sections (d)
                  and (e) of this Section 4, in no event will the Executive, his
                  spouse or family be entitled to continued medical benefits
                  from the Employers if medical benefits if said individual is
                  eligible to receive medical benefits from an alternative
                  source or from another employer or if said spouse and children
                  would no longer be eligible for coverage if the Executive were
                  still employed.

         g)       The Executive's compensation, benefits and expenses shall be
                  paid by the Corporation and the Bank in the same proportion as
                  the time and services actually expended by the Executive on
                  behalf of each respective Employer. Any amounts received from
                  the Corporation may be offset against the amounts due
                  hereunder.

         h)       During the term of the Agreement, the Employers will provide
                  suitable office space, desk, chairs, filing cabinets,
                  telephones and other usual and customary office furniture,
                  fixtures and equipment adequate for the efficient performance
                  of the duties assigned to the Executive.

         i)       During the term of this Agreement, the Employers shall provide
                  to the Executive, at the Employer's cost, all perquisites
                  which other senior executives of the Company are

                                       6

                  generally entitled to receive, including the payment of his or
                  her annual dues at a health and fitness center mutually
                  acceptable to the Executive and the Employer.

         j)       During the term of this Agreement, the Employers will provide
                  to Executive the use of an automobile. Employers will pay all
                  automobile operating expenses incurred by Executive in the
                  performance of Executive's duties. The Employers will procure
                  and maintain in force an automobile liability policy for the
                  automobile with coverage in the minimum amount of $1,000,000
                  combined single limit on bodily injury and property damage.

5)       EXPENSES. The Employers shall reimburse the Executive or otherwise
         provide for or pay for all reasonable expenses incurred by the
         Executive in furtherance of or in connection with the business of the
         Employers, including, but not by way of limitation, automobile expenses
         and other traveling expenses, and all reasonable entertainment expenses
         (whether incurred at the Executive's residence, while traveling or
         otherwise), subject to such reasonable documentation and other
         limitations as may be established by the Boards of Directors of the
         Employers. If such expenses are paid in the first instance by the
         Executive, the Employers shall reimburse the Executive therefor.

6)       TERMINATION.

         a)       The Bank shall have the right, at any time upon prior Notice
                  of Termination, to terminate the Executive's employment
                  hereunder for any reason, including without limitation
                  termination for Cause, Disability or Retirement, and the
                  Executive shall have the right, upon prior Notice of
                  Termination, to terminate his employment hereunder for any
                  reason.

         b)       In the event that (i) the Executive's employment is terminated
                  by the Bank for Cause or (ii) the Executive terminates his
                  employment hereunder other than for Disability, Retirement,
                  death or Good Reason, the Executive shall have no right
                  pursuant to this Agreement to compensation or other benefits
                  for any period after the applicable Date of Termination.

         c)       In the event that the Executive's employment is terminated as
                  a result of Disability, Retirement or the Executive's death
                  during the term of this Agreement, the Executive shall have no
                  right pursuant to this Agreement to compensation or other
                  benefits for any period after the applicable Date of
                  Termination, except as provided for in Sections 4(d) and 4(e)
                  hereof.

         d)       In the event that (i) the Executive's employment is terminated
                  by the Bank for other than Cause, Disability, Retirement or
                  the Executive's death or (ii) such employment is terminated by
                  the Executive (a) due to a material breach of this Agreement
                  by the Bank, which breach has not been cured within fifteen
                  (15) days after a written notice of non-compliance has been
                  given by the Executive to the Employers, or (b) for Good
                  Reason, then the Bank shall, subject to the provisions of
                  Section 7 hereof, if applicable:

                           Termination or in a lump sum within five business
                           days of the Date of Termination (at the Executive's

                           Executive's salary plus cash bonuses earned during

                           Termination or (ii) the date of the Executive's
                           full-time employment by another employer (provided

                           those described in this subparagraph (B)), at no cost
                           to the Executive, the Executive's continued
                           participation in all group insurance, life insurance,
                           health and accident insurance, disability insurance
                           and other employee benefit plans, programs and
                           arrangements offered by the Bank in which the
                           Executive was entitled to participate immediately
                           prior to the Date of Termination (excluding (x) stock
                           option and restricted stock plans of the Employers,

                           this subparagraph (B) is barred, or during such
                           period any such plan, program or arrangement is
                           discontinued or the benefits thereunder are
                           materially reduced, the Bank shall arrange to provide
                           the Executive with benefits substantially similar to
                           those which the Executive was entitled to receive
                           under such plans, programs and arrangements
                           immediately prior to the Date of Termination.

7)       MITIGATION; EXCLUSIVITY OF BENEFITS.

         a)       The Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of
                  any benefits hereunder by seeking other employment or
                  otherwise, nor shall the amount of any such benefits be
                  reduced by any compensation earned by the Executive as a
                  result of employment by another employer after the Date of
                  Termination or otherwise.

         b)       The specific arrangements referred to herein are not intended
                  to exclude any other benefits which may be available to the
                  Executive upon a termination of employment with the Employers
                  pursuant to employee benefit plans of the Employers or
                  otherwise.

8)       WITHHOLDING. All payments required to be made by the Bank hereunder to
         the Executive shall be subject to the withholding of such amounts, if
         any, relating to tax and other payroll deductions as the Bank may
         reasonably determine should be withheld pursuant to any applicable law
         or regulation.

9)       ASSIGNABILITY. The Bank may assign this Agreement and its rights and
         obligations hereunder in whole, but not in part, to any corporation,

<PAGE>

         assets, if in any such case said corporation, bank or other entity
         shall by operation of law or expressly in writing assume all
         obligations of the Bank hereunder as fully as if it had been originally
         made a party hereto, but may not otherwise assign this Agreement or its
         rights and obligations hereunder. The Executive may not assign or
         transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder.

         Savings Associations, 12 C.F.R. Section 563.39(b), or any successor
         thereto, and shall be controlling in the event of a conflict with any
         other provision of this Agreement, including without limitation Section
         6 hereof.

         a)       If the Executive is suspended from office and/or temporarily
                  prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Employers'
                  affairs pursuant to notice served under Section 8(e)(3) or
                  Section 8(g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act ("FDIA")
                  (12 U.S.C. Sections 1818(e)(3) and 1818(g)(1)), the Employers'
                  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 Employers may, in
                  their discretion: (i) pay the Executive all or part of the

                  Agreement were suspended, and (ii) reinstate (in whole or in
                  part) any of its obligations which were suspended.

         b)       If the Executive is removed from office and/or permanently
                  prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Employers'
                  affairs by an order issued under Section 8(e)(4) or Section

                  (g)(1)), all obligations of the Employers under this Agreement
                  shall terminate as of the effective date of the order, but
                  vested rights of the Executive and the Employers as of the
                  date of termination shall not be affected.

         c)       If the Bank is in default, as defined in Section 3(x)(1) of
                  the FDIA (12 U.S.C. Section 1813(x)(1)), all obligations under
                  this Agreement shall terminate as of the date of default, but
                  vested rights of the Executive and the Employers as of the
                  date of termination shall not be affected.

         d)       All obligations under this Agreement shall be terminated
                  pursuant to 12 C.F.R. Section 563.39(b)(5) (except to the
                  extent that it is determined that continuation of the
                  Agreement for the continued operation of the Employers is
                  necessary): (i) by the Director of the Office of Thrift
                  Supervision ("OTS"), or his/her designee, at the time the
                  Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") enters into an
                  agreement to provide assistance to or on behalf of the Bank
                  under the authority contained in Section 13(c) of the FDIA (12
                  U.S.C. Section 1823(c)); or (ii) by the Director of the OTS,
                  or his/her designee, at the time the Director or

                                       10
<PAGE>

                  his/her designee approves a supervisory merger to resolve
                  problems related to operation of the Bank or when the Bank is
                  determined by the Director of the OTS to be in an unsafe or
                  unsound condition, but vested rights of the Executive and the
                  Employers as of the date of termination shall not be affected.

18)      REGULATORY PROHIBITION. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
         Agreement to the contrary, any payments made to the Executive pursuant
         to this Agreement, or otherwise, are subject to and conditioned upon
         their compliance with Section 18(k) of the Federal Deposit Insurance
         Act (12 U.S.C. Section 1828(k)) and the regulations promulgated
         thereunder, including 12 C.F.R. Part 359. In the event of the
         Executive's termination of employment with the Bank for Cause, all
         employment relationships and managerial duties with the Bank shall
         immediately cease regardless of whether the Executive remains in the
         employ of the Corporation following such termination. Furthermore,
