| 7)   | Limitation of Benefits under      Certain Circumstances.  If the payments and benefits      pursuant to Section 6 hereof, either alone or together with other payments      and benefits which the Executive has the right to receive from the Bank,      would constitute a “parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code, the      payments and benefits payable by the Bank pursuant to Section 6 hereof      shall be reduced, in the manner determined by the Executive, by the      amount, if any, which is the minimum necessary to result in no portion of      the payments and benefits payable by the Bank under Section 6 being      non-deductible to the Bank pursuant to Section 280G of the Code and      subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the      Code.  The parties hereto agree that the present value of the      payments and benefits payable pursuant to this Agreement to the Executive      upon termination shall be limited to three (3) times the Executive’s      Average Annual Compensation.  The determination of any reduction      in the payments and benefits to be made pursuant to Section 6 shall be      based upon the opinion of independent counsel selected by the Bank's      independent public accountants and paid by the Bank.  Such      counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Bank and the Executive;      shall promptly prepare the foregoing opinion, but in no event later than      sixty (60) days following such counsel’s selection; and may use such      actuaries as such counsel deems necessary or advisable for the      purpose.  Nothing contained herein shall result in a reduction      of any payments or benefits to which the Executive may be entitled upon      termination of employment under any circumstances other than as specified      in this Section 7, or a reduction in the payments and benefits specified      in Section 6 below zero. |

| 8)   | 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 so long as the Executive has not breached this      Agreement.  In the event of any breach of this Agreement by the      Executive following the Date of Termination, the Executive shall      immediately repay to the Bank all severance payments paid to him under |

| 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. |
|----------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| 9)   | 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 taxes      and other payroll deductions as the Bank may reasonably determine should      be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or  regulation. |
|----------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| 10)   | Assignability.  The      Bank may, without the consent of the Executive, assign this Agreement and      its rights and obligations hereunder in whole, but not in part, to any      corporation, bank or other Person with or into which the Bank may      hereafter merge or consolidate or to which the Bank may transfer all or      substantially all of its assets, if in any such case such corporation,      bank or other Person 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.

For      a period of five (5) years following any termination of the Executive’s      employment with the Bank and upon the request of the Bank or any of its      subsidiaries or affiliates, the Executive shall reasonably cooperate,      assist and make himself available (for testimony or otherwise) at      appropriate times and places as reasonably determined by the Bank or any      of its subsidiaries or affiliates in connection with any claim, demand,      action, suit, proceeding, discovery, examination, investigation or      litigation by, against or affecting the Bank or any of its subsidiaries or      affiliates.

| 26)   | Certain      Remedies.  The Executive agrees that the Bank will suffer      irreparable damage and injury and will not have an adequate remedy at law      in the event of any actual, threatened or attempted breach by the      Executive of any provision of Section 3.  Accordingly, in the      event of a breach or a threatened or attempted breach by the Executive of      any provision of Section 3, in addition to all other remedies to which the      Bank is entitled at law, in equity or otherwise, the Bank shall be      entitled to a temporary restraining order, a permanent injunction and/or a      decree of specific performance of any provision of Section      3.  The parties agree that a bond posted by the Bank in the      amount of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) shall be adequate and appropriate      in connection with such restraining order or injunction and that actual      damages need not be proved by the Bank prior to it being entitled to      obtain such restraining order, injunction or specific      performance.  The foregoing remedies shall not be deemed to be      the exclusive rights or remedies of the Bank for any breach of or      noncompliance with this Agreement by the Executive but shall be in      addition to all other rights and remedies available to the Bank at law, in      equity or otherwise. |
