    RECITALS

     

    Employee
      is employed by Bank in the position of Senior Vice President - Marketing and
      Retail Banking of the Bank. To provide an element of stability, the Bank desires
      to provide for the continuation of the Employee’s compensation and other
      benefits of employment in the event of a change in control of the Bank coupled
      with the Employee’s actual or constructive termination of employment. The Bank
      and the Employee mutually desire to enter into this Agreement in order to set
      forth the specific terms of the Employee’s severance arrangement in
      consideration of the Employee’s continued employment and general release;
      provided, however, nothing herein shall be construed as a contract of employment
      for a specific term and the Employee remains employed by the Bank “at
      will”.

     

    NOW,
      THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants,
      agreements and undertakings of the parties hereinafter set forth, the Bank
      and
      the Employee do hereby agree
      as
      follows:

     

    
      	
              1.

                Continuation.
                If, within one (1) year after a Change in Control, as such term is
                defined
                in Section 3 of this Agreement, (i) Bank shall terminate Employee’s
                employment with Bank without Good Cause, or (ii) Employee shall
                voluntarily terminate such employment with Good Reason, the following
                provisions shall apply: 

            


    

     

    
      	 	
              a.

            	
              Bank
                shall pay Employee an amount in a single lump sum equal to 1/12 of
                the
                Employee’s annualized base salary (at the rate most recently determined)
                times twelve (12).

            


    

     

    
      	 	
              b.

            	
              The
                amount described in paragraph 1.a. shall be paid no later than 30
                days
                following the Employee’s termination of
                employment.

            


    

     

    
      	 	
              c.

            	
              Employee
                shall receive any and all benefits accrued under each and every benefit
                plan sponsored by Bank. Employee shall be fully vested in each and
                every
                retirement plan, including, but not limited to the Bank’s “401(k)” plan,
                sponsored by Bank. Employee shall be entitled to receive pay for
                each and
                every day of vacation accrued in the preceding year and carried over
                to
                his year of termination of employment that is not used as of the
                date of
                his termination of employment.

            


    

     

    
      	 	
              d.

            	
              Employee
                and his dependents shall continue to be covered by and participate
                in all
                health, dental, and life insurance plans or arrangements made available
                by
                Bank in which Employee or his dependents were participating immediately
                prior

            


    

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    to
      the
      date of his termination as if he continued to be an employee of Bank for that
      period of time following his termination of employment that shall end on the
      first to occur of (i) the expiration of the twelve-month period following
      the Employee’s termination of employment, or (ii) the date such coverage is
      available for Employee and his dependents through a subsequent employer (the
      “Period of Coverage”). Employee and his dependents shall participate in such
      coverages on the same terms and conditions as active employees, including,
      contributing the same amount to participate in such coverages as is contributed
      by active employees. If
      participation in any one or more of such plans and arrangements is not possible
      under the terms thereof, Bank will provide substantially identical benefits
      to
      Employee and his dependents, provided, however, the Bank shall not be
      responsible to pay for such coverage to the extent the cost of providing such
      coverage shall exceed 120% of the Bank’s cost of providing like coverage to
      active employees. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the 120% shall be
      measured separately for each benefit provided outside the Bank’s plan.
      Employee’s and his dependents’ rights to continuation of coverage under any
      group health plan of the Bank pursuant to Section 4980B of the Internal Revenue
      Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”) (“COBRA”) shall commence at the end of the
      Period of Coverage, and Employee shall participate in COBRA coverage on the
      same
      terms and conditions as any other qualified beneficiary, including payment
      of
      the full cost. The maximum length of any dependent’s coverage shall be
      determined by the qualifying event that immediately precedes the dependent’s
      commencement of continuation coverage, and any subsequent qualifying
      event.

     

    
      	 	
              e.

            	
              No
                payments to or with respect to Employee under this Agreement during
                the
                twelve (12) months following the Employee’s termination of employment
                shall be reduced by any amount Employee or his dependents, spouse
                or
                beneficiary may earn or receive from employment with another employer
                or
                from any other source.

            


    

     

    
      	
              2.

            	
              Term
                of Agreement.
                This Agreement shall terminate upon the later to occur of (i) the
                second anniversary of the effective date of the Agreement, or
                (ii) the first anniversary of a Change in
                Control.

              Change
                in Control Provisions.
                

            


    

     

    
      	 	
              a.

            	
              Except
                for 3.e.(ii)(B), “Company” shall mean, with respect to a particular
                transaction, one of the following: (i) the Bank; (ii) any
                entity
                that owns more than fifty percent (50%) of the total fair market
                value and
                total voting power of the Bank (“Majority
                Shareholder”);
                or (iii) any entity in a chain of entities in which each entity
                is a
                Majority Shareholder of the next entity in the chain, with one entity
                in
                the chain ultimately being a Majority Shareholder of the Bank. For
                purposes of 3.e.(ii)(B), the Company shall mean, of the entities
                listed in
                the immediately preceding sentence, only that entity that has no
                corporate
                Majority Shareholder.

              b.

            	
              For
                purposes of this Section 3, “Person” shall mean (i) any person, or
                (ii) a group of more than one person where the surrounding
                circumstances demonstrate that the persons are acting as a group.
                Without
                limiting the generality of the foregoing, persons shall be considered
                to
                be acting as a group if they are owners of an entity that enters
                into a
                merger, consolidation, purchase or acquisition of stock, or similar
                business transaction with the
                Company.

            


    

     

    
      	 	
              c.

            	
              For
                the purposes of this Section 3, “Gross Fair Market Value” shall mean the
                value of an asset (or assets) determined without regard to any liabilities
                associated with the asset (or
                assets).

            


    

     

    
      	 	
              d.

            	
              For
                purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control” shall be interpreted and
                applied in accordance with Code section 409A and any and all guidance
                issued, now or hereafter, with respect thereto by the United States
                Department of the Treasury. To the extent that the definition of
                Change in
                Control in this Agreement is more liberal than the definition set
                forth in
                any regulations proposed or finalized under Code section 409A or
                guidance
                in such after the date of this Agreement, such regulation or guidance
                shall control.

            


    

     

    
      	 	
              e.

            	
              For
                purposes of this Agreement, a “Change in Control” shall occur when:
                

            


    

     

    
      	 	
              (i)

            	
              There
                is a change in ownership in the Company. A “change in ownership” shall
                occur when a Person acquires ownership of more than fifty percent
                (50%) of
                the fair market value or voting power of the Company, provided:
                (A) the fifty percent (50%) ownership calculation takes into
                consideration stock previously held by the Person; (B) if
                a Person
                already owns more than fifty percent (50%) of the fair market value
                or
                voting power of the Company, the Person’s acquisition of more stock shall
                not trigger a change in ownership; and (C) a change in ownership
                shall not occur if there is no stock in the Company outstanding after
                the
                transaction that results in the transfer of stock; or
                

            


    

     

    
      	 	
              (ii)

            	
              There
                is a change in the effective control of the Company. A “change in
                effective control” shall occur when, within a twelve month period:
                (A) a Person who does not already own thirty-five percent
                (35%) of
                the Company acquires thirty-five percent (35%) or more of the total
                voting
                power of the Company; or (B) the majority of the Company’s directors
                are replaced, but only if the replacement is hostile—that is, the change
                in the majority is not endorsed by a majority of the corporate directors
                in place immediately prior to the replacement; or
                

            


    

     

    
      	 	
              (iii)

            	
              There
                is a transfer of a substantial portion of corporate assets. A “transfer of
                a substantial portion of corporate assets” occurs when a Person acquires,
                within a twelve-month period, Company assets having a Gross Fair
                Market
                Value equal to forty percent (40%) or more of the total Gross Fair
                Market
                Value of Company assets owned prior to such acquisition(s); provided,
                however, a transfer of a substantial portion of corporate
                assets

            


    

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    does
      not
      occur if the Company transfers ownership of assets to (A) a Person who
      is a
      shareholder of the Company immediately prior to the asset transfer in exchange
      for or with respect to the shareholder’s stock; (B) an entity of which
      Company owns, directly or indirectly, fifty percent (50%) or more of the total
      value or voting power; (C) a Person who owns fifty percent (50%) or
      more of
      the total value or voting power of the Company; or (D) an entity of
      which
      fifty percent (50%) or more of the total value or voting power is owned,
      directly or indirectly, by a Person who owns 50% or more of the total value
      or
      voting power of the Company. For purposes of this Section 3.e.(iii), except
      as
      otherwise provided, a Person’s status is determined immediately after the
      transfer of the assets.

                of Good Cause.
                “Good Cause” shall mean:

              Employee’s
                conviction of any felony whatsoever or any other criminal violation
                involving dishonesty, fraud, or breach or
                trust;

            


    

     

    
      	 	
              b.

            	
              Employee’s
                willful engagement in any misconduct in the performance of his duty
                that
                materially injures Bank;

            


    

     

    
      	 	
              c.

            	
              Employee’s
                performance of any act which, if known to the customers or clients
                of Bank
                would materially and adversely impact on the business of Bank;

              Employee’s
                willful and substantial nonperformance of assigned duties; provided
                that
                such nonperformance has continued more than five (5) calendar days
                after
                Bank has given written notice of such nonperformance and of its intention
                to terminate Employee’s employment because of such nonperformance;
                

            


    

     

    
      	 	
              e.

            	
              Employee’s
                failure or refusal to follow the lawful instructions of the President
                and

              Inability
                of the Bank to secure a bond covering Employee or a directive to
                the Bank
                by any governmental regulatory agency to terminate Employee’s employment
                or remove Employee from his current
                position.

                is
                presented to Employee to sign the Agreement. If Employee signs the

                the Agreement to revoke the Agreement. Employee shall not be entitled
                to

                period
                has expired. This Agreement was presented to Employee on September

              Except
                to the extent required to be disclosed by state or federal securities
                law,
                the Agreement and all its terms and provisions are strictly confidential
                and shall not be divulged or disclosed in any way to any person other
                than
                Employee’s spouse and legal counsel if Employee so desires, and Employee
                will protect the confidentiality of the Agreement in all regards.
                Should
                Employee choose to divulge the terms and conditions of the Agreement
                to
                Employee’s spouse or legal counsel, Employee shall ensure that they will
                be similarly bound to protect its confidentiality and that a breach
                of
                this paragraph by Employee’s spouse or legal counsel shall be considered a
                breach of this paragraph by
                Employee.

              Employee
                and the Bank have executed the Agreement voluntarily, with full knowledge

                their respective legal counsel, as well as other persons of their
                choosing, before executing the Agreement. Employee acknowledges that
                he
                has carefully read the entire Agreement, that a copy of the Agreement
                was
                available to him prior to execution, that he knows and understands
                the
                provisions of the Agreement, and that he has signed the Agreement
                as his
                own free act and deed.

              Nondisclosure
                of Confidential Information.
                Employee shall not at any time or in any manner, directly or indirectly,
                use or disclose to any party any confidential information or proprietary
                data of Bank, or any of its affiliates, learned or obtained by Employee
                while an employee of Bank, except (i) as required by judicial
                or
                administrative
                process; (ii) after the confidential information has become
                generally
                available to the public through no breach of this Agreement by Employee;
                or (iii) with the prior written consent of Bank. In the event
                Employee violates this Section 7, and such violation is detrimental
                to the
                Bank, Bank shall be entitled to pursue all remedies at law or in
                equity in
                any action or proceeding to enforce this Section 7. For purposes
                of this
                Agreement, “confidential information” means material information of Bank,
                or its affiliates, disclosed to or known by Employee as a consequence
                of
                Employee’s employment with Bank and not
                generally

    known
      in
      the financial services industry, that directly relates to Bank’s business and
      that is detrimental to the Bank. Employee has carefully read and considered
      the
      provisions of this Section 7, and, having done so, agrees that the restriction
      set forth in this Section 7 is fair and reasonable and reasonably required
      for
      the protection of Bank’s interests.

              Compliance
                with FDIC Regulations.
                It is the intention of the parties that none of the payments to which
                Employee is entitled under this Agreement will constitute a “golden
                parachute payment” within the meaning of 12 USC Section 1828(k)(3) or
                implementing regulations of the FDIC, the payment of which is prohibited.
                Any payments made by Bank or any holding company of Bank to or for
                the
                benefit of Employee pursuant to this Agreement, or otherwise, are
                subject
                to and conditioned upon their compliance with 12 USC Section 1828(k)
                and

                Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement (or the Trust Agreement)
                to the
                contrary, upon a Change in Control, if Employee is a “key employee” (as
                defined in Code section 416(i)) and the Employee’s termination of
                employment is not involuntary, so that his payout (as described in
                Section
                1.a. of this Agreement) is delayed as described in Section 18.e.
                of this
                Agreement, the Bank shall (i) establish a trust (if not already
                established) as described in subsection b. below, and (ii) maintain
                in the Trust an amount of money which is at all times at least equal
                to
                its obligations under this Agreement to Employee (as well as any
                other key
                employee with a similar agreement), by making sufficient contributions
                to
                the Trust, immediately upon such Change in Control in an amount equal
                to
                the Bank’s total liabilities to such Employee and all other key
                employees.

            


    

     

    The
      obligation of the Bank to provide benefits pursuant to this Agreement shall
      be
      the sole unsecured promise of the Bank with respect to this Agreement.
      Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to any Change in Control, the Bank may
      establish a trust, pursuant to a Trust Agreement, for the purpose of setting
      aside funds to provide for the payment of benefits under this Agreement.
      However, the assets of the Trust shall at all time remain subject to the claims
      of the general creditors of the Bank, and the Employee shall not have any claim
      or right with respect to the assets held in the Trust, except to the extent
      that
      the Employee is a general creditor of the Bank.

      purposes of this Section 9, the following words and phrases shall have the

                compensation. The Bank shall have the discretion to determine whether
                or
                not a Trust shall be established in connection with any agreement
                or

                the
                event of a Change in Control, such discretion shall be removed from
                the
                Bank, and a Trust shall be established (if not already in existence)
                and

              To
                the extent so required, any deferral election made by Employee or
                deemed
                to be made by Employee, with respect to compensation payable on services
                performed in a calendar year shall be made before the end of the
                preceding
                calendar year; provided, that in the case of performance based
                compensation, the deferral election may be made not later than 6
                months
                before the end of the performance period. Employee shall be considered
                to
                have made all deferral elections under this Agreement in accordance
                with
                the preceding sentence, and shall not be permitted nor deemed to
                be

              No
                rabbi trust that might be used to pay amounts due under this Agreement,
                nor the assets held by such trust, shall be located outside the United
                States. In addition, no such trust shall provide for the assets thereof
                to
                become restricted to the provision of benefits under the Agreement,
                or
                distributed to Employee, as a result of a change in the financial
                health
                or condition of the Bank. Nothing herein shall be construed to require
                the
                Bank or entitle Employee to have amounts due him under this Agreement
                paid
                from a rabbi trust.

              In
                the event that Employee is considered to be a key employee (as defined
                in
                §416(i) of the Code without regard to paragraph (5) thereof), distribution
                to Employee may not be made earlier than the date which is 6 months
                after
                Employee’s termination of employment. The preceding sentence shall not
                apply (i) to the extent that none of the stock of the Bank
                is
                publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise,
                or
                (ii) the payments made under this Agreement are paid as the
                result of
                an involuntary termination of employment, provided that all such
                payments
                are paid no later than the December 31 of the second calendar year
                following the year of such Employee’s
                termination.

                timing of any distributions pursuant to Employee’s deferral election, if

                in this
                Section 18, Employee shall not be permitted to alter the payment
