 Description of 2009 Bonus Incentive Plan 
 On January 13, 2009, the Company’s Compensation Committee approved a cash incentive bonus plan for 2009 (the “2009 Bonus Plan”) for
all officers and employees of the Company and the Bank. The 2009 Bonus Plan is fully discretionary on the part of the Company’s Compensation Committee. The plan provides for a discretionary bonus pool of funds which would not exceed 10% of
after-tax net income with a minimum discretionary bonus pool amount of $150,000 in the aggregate. Bonuses will be paid under the 2009 Bonus Plan in early 2010. 
 The key performance indicators used to determine whether any bonuses will be paid under the 2009 Bonus Plan will be the same for all administration employees. The amounts of the bonuses to be individually awarded
under the 2009 Bonus Plan are fully discretionary, and may or may not be paid in whole or in part based on the Compensation Committee’s qualitative assessment of individual contributions toward the Company’s success relative to its
profitability, customer service, deposit growth, compliance, loan originations and portfolio growth, loan charge-off and delinquency ratios. Payout percentages will vary from employee to employee. All named executive officers are eligible under the
Plan. 
 For branch operations staff, a separate branch sales incentive bonus plan has been created that is tied to individual deposit growth
goals by branch, and is not dependent on the general income of the Company.
