Exhibit 10.25

                         CHANGE OF CONTROL AGREEMENT

      This Change of Control Agreement (the "Agreement") is made and
entered into as of June 11, 2003 by and among Medford Co-operative Bank, a
state-chartered stock cooperative bank organized and operating under the
laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts having an office at 60 High
Street, Medford, Massachusetts 02155 (the "Bank"), Mystic Financial, Inc.,
a publicly-held business corporation organized and existing under the laws
of the State of Delaware and having an office at 60 High Street, Medford,
Massachusetts 02155 (the "Company") and Annette J. Hunt (the "Officer").

                           INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT

      The Board of Directors of the Bank has concluded that it is in the
best interests of the Bank, the Company and their shareholders to establish
a working environment for the Officer which minimizes the personal
distractions that might result from possible business combinations in which
the Company or the Bank might be involved.  To this end, the Bank has
decided to provide the Officer with assurance that her salary will be
continued for a minimum period of eighteen (18) months following
termination of employment (the "Assurance Period") if her employment
terminates under specified circumstances related to a business combination.
The Board of Directors of the Bank has decided to formalize this assurance
by entering into this Change of Control Agreement with the Officer.  The
Board of Directors of the Company has authorized the Company to guarantee
the Bank's obligations under this Agreement.

      The terms and conditions which the Bank, the Company and the Officer
have agreed to are as follows.

                                  AGREEMENT

      Section 1.   Effective Date; Term; Change of Control and Pending
                   Change of Control Defined.

      (a)   This Agreement shall take effect on the day and year first
written above (the "Effective Date") and shall be in effect during the
period (the "Term") beginning on the Effective Date and ending on the first
anniversary of the date on which the Bank notifies the Officer of its
intent to discontinue the Agreement (the "Initial Expiration Date") or, if
later, the first anniversary of the latest Change of Control or Pending
Change of Control, as defined below, that occurs after the Effective Date
and before the Initial Expiration Date.

      (b)   For all purposes of this Agreement, a "Change of Control" shall
be deemed to have occurred upon the happening of any of the following
events:

            (i)   the consummation of a reorganization, merger or
      consolidation of the Company with one or more other persons, other
      than a transaction following which:

                  (A)   at least 51% of the equity ownership interests of
            the entity resulting from such transaction are beneficially
            owned (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the
            Securities Exchange Act of


<PAGE>


            1934, as amended ("Exchange Act")) in substantially the same
            relative proportions by persons who, immediately prior to such
            transaction, beneficially owned (within the meaning of Rule
            13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) at least 51% of the
            outstanding equity ownership interests in the Company; and

                  (B)   at least 51% of the securities entitled to vote
            generally in the election of directors of the entity resulting
            from such transaction are beneficially owned (within the
            meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) in
            substantially the same relative proportions by persons who,
            immediately prior to such transaction, beneficially owned
            (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the
            Exchange Act) at least 51% of the securities entitled to vote
            generally in the election of directors of the Company;

            (ii)  the acquisition of all or substantially all of the assets
      of the Company or beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule
      13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 25% or more of the
      outstanding securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in
      the election of directors by any person or by any persons acting in
      concert;

            (iii) a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company;

            (iv)  the occurrence of any event if, immediately following
      such event, at least 50% of the members of the Board of Directors of
      the Company do not belong to any of the following groups:

                  (A)   individuals who were members of the Board of
            Directors of the Company on the date of this Agreement; or

                  (B)   individuals who first became members of the Board
            of Directors of the Company after the date of this Agreement
            either:

                        (1)   upon election to serve as a member of the
                  Board of Directors of the Company by affirmative vote of
                  three-quarters of the members of such board, or of a
                  nominating committee thereof, in office at the time of
                  such first election; or

                        (2)   upon election by the shareholders of the
                  Board of Directors of the Company to serve as a member of
                  such board, but only if nominated for election by
                  affirmative vote of three-quarters of the members of the
                  Board of Directors of the Company, or of a nominating
                  committee thereof, in office at the time of such first
                  nomination;

            provided, however, that such individual's election or
            nomination did not result from an actual or threatened election
            contest or other actual or


<PAGE>  2


            threatened solicitation of proxies or consents other than by or
            on behalf of the Board of Directors of the Company;

            (v)   any event which would be described in section 1(b)(i),
      (ii), (iii) or (iv) if the term "Bank" were substituted for the term
      "Company" therein.

In no event, however, shall a Change of Control be deemed to have occurred
as a result of any acquisition of securities or assets of the Company, the
Bank, or a subsidiary of either of them, by the Company, the Bank, or any
subsidiary of either of them, or by any employee benefit plan maintained by
any of them.  For purposes of this section 1(b), the term "person" shall
have the meaning assigned to it under sections 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the
Exchange Act.

      (c)   For purposes of this Agreement, a "Pending Change of Control"
shall mean: (i) the signing of a definitive agreement for a transaction
which, if consummated, would result in a Change of Control; (ii) the
commencement of a tender offer which, if successful, would result in a
Change of Control; or (iii) the circulation of a proxy statement seeking
proxies in opposition to management in an election contest which, if
successful, would result in a Change of Control; provided, however, that
the Change of Control contemplated does, in fact, occur.

      Section 2.   Discharge Prior to a Pending Change of Control.

      The Bank may discharge the Officer at any time prior to the
occurrence of a Pending Change of Control for any reason or for no reason.
In such event:

      (a)   the Bank shall pay to the Officer (or, in the event of her
death, her estate) her earned but unpaid compensation (including, without
limitation, salary and all other items which constitute wages under
applicable law) as of the date of her termination of employment.  This
payment shall be made at the time and in the manner prescribed by law
applicable to the payment of wages but in no event later than 30 days after
the date of the Officer's termination of employment; and

      (b)   the Bank shall provide the benefits, if any, due to the Officer
(or, in the event of her death, her estate, surviving dependents or her
designated beneficiaries) under the employee benefit plans and programs and
compensation plans and programs maintained for the benefit of the officers
and employees of the Bank.  The time and manner of payment or other
delivery of these benefits and the recipients of such benefits shall be
determined according to the terms and conditions of the applicable plans
and programs.

The payments and benefits described in sections 2(a) and (b) shall be
referred to in this Agreement as the "Standard Termination Entitlements."

      Section 3.   Termination of Employment Due to Death.

      The Officer's employment with the Bank shall terminate, automatically
and without any further action on the part of any party to this Agreement,
on the date of the Officer's death.  In such event, the Bank shall pay and
deliver to her estate and surviving dependents and beneficiaries, as
applicable, the Standard Termination Entitlements.


<PAGE>  3


      Section 4.   Termination Due to Disability.

      The Bank may terminate the Officer's employment during the Term and
after the occurrence of a Change of Control or a Pending Change of Control
upon a determination, by a majority vote of the members of the Board of
Directors of the Bank, acting in reliance on the written advice of a
medical professional acceptable to it, that the Officer is suffering from a
physical or mental impairment which, at the date of the determination, has
prevented the Officer from performing her assigned duties on a
substantially full-time basis for a period of at least ninety (90) days
during the period of one (1) year ending with the date of the determination
or is likely to result in death or prevent the Officer from performing her
assigned duties on a substantially full-time basis for a period of at least
ninety (90) days during the period of one (1) year beginning with the date
of the determination.  In such event the Bank shall pay and deliver to the
Officer (or in the event of her death before payment, to her estate and
surviving dependents and beneficiaries, as applicable) the Standard
Termination Entitlements.

      A termination of employment due to disability under this section 4
shall be effected by a notice of termination given to the Officer by the
Bank and shall take effect on the later of the effective date of
termination specified in such notice or the date on which the notice of
termination is deemed given to the Officer.

      Section 5.   Discharge with Cause after Change of Control or Pending
                   Change of Control.

      (a)   The Bank may terminate the Officer's employment with "Cause"
during the Term and after the occurrence of a Change of Control or Pending
Change of Control, but a termination shall be deemed to have occurred with
"Cause" only if such termination is due to personal dishonesty, willful
misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit, intentional
failure to perform stated duties, willful violation of any banking law,
rule or regulation, conviction of a felony or final cease and desist order
issued in response to conduct of the Officer determined to be substantially
deleterious to the Bank or Company, or any material breach of this
Agreement, in each case as measured against standards generally prevailing
at the relevant time in the savings and community banking industry.  For
purposes of section 5(a), no act or failure to act, on the part of the
Officer, shall be considered "willful" unless it is done, or omitted to be
done, by the Officer in bad faith or without reasonable belief that the
Officer's action or omission was in the best interests of the Bank and its
affiliates.  Any act, or failure to act, based upon authority given
pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board or based upon the
written advice of counsel for the Bank shall be conclusively presumed to be
done, or omitted to be done, by the Officer in good faith and in the best
interests of the Bank.  The cessation of employment of the Officer shall
not be deemed to be for Cause within the meaning of this section 5(a)
unless and until there shall have been delivered to the Officer a copy of a
resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of three-fourths of the
non-employee members of the Board at a meeting of the Board called and held
for such purpose (after reasonable notice is provided to the Officer and
the Officer is given an opportunity, together with counsel, to be heard
before the Board), finding that, in the good faith opinion of the Board,
the Officer is guilty of the conduct described in this section 5(a), and
specifying the particulars thereof in detail.

      (b)   If the Officer is discharged with Cause during the Term and
after a Change of Control or Pending Change of Control, the Bank shall pay
and provide to him (or, in the event of her death, to her estate, her
surviving beneficiaries and her dependents) the Standard Termination
Entitlements only.

      Section 6.   Discharge without Cause.

      The Bank may discharge the Officer without Cause at any time after
the occurrence of a Change of Control or Pending Change of Control, and in
such event:

      (a)   The Bank shall pay and deliver to the Officer (or in the event
of her death before payment, to her estate and surviving dependents and
beneficiaries, as applicable) the Standard Termination Entitlements.

      (b)   In addition to the Standard Termination Entitlements:

            (i)   During the Assurance Period, the Bank shall provide for
      the Officer continued group life, health (including hospitalization,
      medical and major medical), dental, accident and long-term disability
      insurance benefits on substantially the same terms and conditions in
      effect immediately prior to the Officer's resignation.  The coverage
      provided under this section 6(b)(i) will cease upon the earlier of
      (i) the date the Officer first becomes eligible for such benefit
      coverage under similar plans or programs maintained by a subsequent
      employer and (ii) the date the Assurance Period terminates; and

            (ii)  The Bank shall make a lump sum payment to the Officer
      (or, in the event of her death before payment, to her estate), in an
      amount equal to the estimated present value of the salary that
      Officer would have earned if she had continued working for the Bank
      during the Assurance Period at the highest annual rate of salary
      achieved during that portion of the employment period which is prior
      to the Officer's termination of employment with the Bank, where such
      present value is to be determined using a discount rate equal to the
      applicable short-term federal rate prescribed under section 1274(d)
      of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 ("Code"), compounded using the
      compounding period corresponding to the  Bank's regular payroll
      periods for its officers. Such lump sum shall be paid in lieu of all
      other payments of salary provided for under this Agreement in respect
      of the period following any such termination.

The payments and benefits described in section 6(b) are referred to in this
Agreement as the "Additional Change of Control Entitlements".

      Section 7.   Resignation.

      (a)   The Officer may resign from her employment with the Bank at any
time.  A resignation under this section 7 shall be effected by notice of
resignation given by the Officer


<PAGE>  5


to the Bank and shall take effect on the later of the effective date of
termination specified in such notice or the date on which the notice of
termination is deemed given to the Officer.  The Officer's resignation of
any of the positions within the Bank or the Company to which she has been
assigned shall be deemed a resignation from all such positions.

      (b)   The Officer's resignation shall be deemed to be for "Good
Reason" if the effective date of resignation occurs during the Term, but on
or after the effective date of a Change of Control.  In all other cases, a
resignation by the Officer shall be deemed to be without Good Reason. In
the event of resignation, the Officer shall state in her notice of
resignation whether she considers her resignation to be a resignation with
Good Reason.  The Officer's determination of the existence of Good Reason
shall be conclusive in the absence of fraud, bad faith or manifest error.

      (c)   In the event of the Officer's resignation for any reason, the
Bank shall pay and deliver the Standard Termination Entitlements.  In the
event of the Officer's resignation with Good Reason, the Bank shall also
pay and deliver the Additional Termination Entitlements.

      Section 8.   Terms and Conditions of the Additional Termination
                   Entitlements.

      The Bank and the Officer hereby stipulate that the damages which may
be incurred by the Officer following any termination of employment are not
capable of accurate measurement as of the date first above written and that
the Additional Termination Entitlements constitute reasonable damages under
the circumstances and shall be payable without any requirement of proof of
actual damage and without regard to the Officer's efforts, if any, to
mitigate damages.  The Bank and the Officer further agree that the Bank may
condition the payment and delivery of the Additional Termination
Entitlements on the receipt of: (a) the Officer's resignation from any and
all positions which she holds as an officer, director or committee member
with respect to the Bank or the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate of
either of them; and (b) a release of the Bank and its officers, directors,
shareholders, subsidiaries and affiliates, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Bank, of any liability to the Officer, whether for
compensation or damages, in connection with her employment with the Bank
and the termination of such employment except for the Standard Termination
Entitlements and the Additional Termination Entitlements.

      Section 9.   No Effect on Employee Benefit Plans or Programs.

      The termination of the Officer's employment during the Term of this
Agreement or thereafter, whether by the Bank or the Officer, shall have no
effect on the rights and obligations of the parties hereto under the Bank's
qualified or non-qualified retirement, pension, savings, thrift, profit-
sharing or stock bonus plans, group life, health (including
hospitalization, medical and major medical), dental, accident and long term
disability insurance plans or such other employee benefit plans or
programs, or compensation plans or programs, as may be maintained by, or
cover employees of, the Bank from time to time; provided, however, that
nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to duplicate any compensation or
benefits provided under any agreement, plan or program covering the Officer
to which the Bank or Company is a


<PAGE>  6


party and any duplicative amount payable under any such agreement, plan or
program shall be applied as an offset to reduce the amounts otherwise
payable hereunder.

      Section 10.  Successors and Assigns.

      This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the
Officer, her legal representatives and testate or intestate distributees,
and the Company and the Bank and their respective successors and assigns,
including any successor by merger or consolidation or a statutory receiver
or any other person or firm or corporation to which all or substantially
all of the assets and business of the Company or the Bank may be sold or
otherwise transferred.

      Section 11.  Notices.

      Any communication required or permitted to be given under this
Agreement, including any notice, direction, designation, consent,
instruction, objection or waiver, shall be in writing and shall be deemed
to have been given at such time as it is delivered personally, or five days
after mailing if mailed, postage prepaid, by registered or certified mail,
return receipt requested, addressed to such party at the address listed
below or at such other address as one such party may by written notice

      Section 12.  Indemnification for Attorneys' Fees.

      The Bank shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Officer
against reasonable costs, including legal fees, incurred by her in
connection with or arising out of any action, suit or proceeding in which
she may be involved, as a result of her efforts, in good faith, to defend
or enforce the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Officer
shall have substantially prevailed on the merits pursuant to a judgment,
decree or order of a court of competent jurisdiction or of an arbitrator in
an arbitration proceeding.  The determination whether the Officer shall
have substantially prevailed on the merits and is therefore entitled to
such indemnification, shall be made by the court or arbitrator, as
applicable.  In the event of a settlement pursuant to a settlement
agreement, any indemnification payment under this section 12 shall be made
only after a determination by the members of the Board (other than the
Officer and any other member of the Board to which the Officer is related
by blood or marriage) that the


<PAGE>  7


Officer has acted in good faith and that such indemnification payment is in
the best interests of the Bank.

      Section 13.  Severability.

      A determination that any provision of this Agreement is invalid or
unenforceable shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other
provision hereof.

      Section 14.  Waiver.

      Failure to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms,
covenants or conditions hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such term,
covenant, or condition.  A waiver of any provision of this Agreement must
be made in writing, designated as a waiver, and signed by the party against
whom its enforcement is sought.  Any waiver or relinquishment of any right
or power hereunder at any one or more times shall not be deemed a waiver or
relinquishment of such right or power at any other time or times.

      Section 15.  Counterparts.

      This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original, and all of which shall constitute one
and the same Agreement.

      Section 16.  Governing Law.

      This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in
accordance with the federal laws of the United States and, to the extent
that federal law is inapplicable, in accordance with the laws of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts applicable to contracts entered into and to
be performed entirely within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

      Section 17.  Headings and Construction.

      The headings of sections in this Agreement are for convenience of
reference only and are not intended to qualify the meaning of any section.
Any reference to a section number shall refer to a section of this
Agreement, unless otherwise stated.

      Section 18.  Entire Agreement; Modifications.

      This instrument contains the entire agreement of the parties relating
to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes in its entirety any and all
prior agreements, understandings or representations relating to the subject
matter hereof.  No modifications of this Agreement shall be valid unless

      withheld while the Bank's obligations hereunder were suspended, and

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