deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated

3.1                                Supplemental Retirement
Benefit

       

      (a)           A
Participant whose benefits under the Retirement Plan are limited by one or more
of the Applicable Limitations shall be eligible for a supplemental retirement
benefit under this Plan in an amount equal to the excess of:

       

      (i)           the
retirement benefit to which he would be entitled under the Retirement Plan in
the absence of the Applicable Limitations; over

      (ii)           the
actual retirement benefit to which he is entitled under the Retirement
Plan;

       

      in each
case computed as of the date on which his benefit under the Retirement Plan is
scheduled to commence and on the basis of the benefit form selected by him under
the Retirement Plan; provided,
however, that if the Participant dies before the payment of such
supplemental retirement benefit begins, no benefit shall be payable under this
section 3.1 and the survivor benefit, if any, which may be payable shall be
determined under section 4.1.

       

      (b)           The
supplemental retirement benefit provided for in this section 3.1 shall be paid
in the form of a single life annuity commencing on the first day of the month
coincident with or next following the Participant's Termination of Service or,
if later, the first day of the month coincident with or next following
Participant's 65th birthday. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant may,
subject to the restrictions in section 5.1, within thirty (30) days after first
becoming eligible to participate in the Plan for purpose of receiving a
supplemental retirement benefit, elect that such supplemental retirement benefit
(to the extent that such benefit is attributable to compensation for services
performed after such election) be paid in a different form or commencing at a
different time by filing a written election, in such form and manner as the
Committee may provide, within such thirty (30) day period, and the amount of
such benefit shall be the Actuarial Equivalent of the benefit payable in the
absence of such an election.

       

      (c)           Notwithstanding
section 3.1(b), subject to the consent of the Committee in its sole and absolute
discretion, each Participant may, by written election given in such form and
manner as the Committee may prescribe, elect to change the time and manner of
distribution of the balance credited to the supplemental retirement benefit;
provided, however,
that:

       

      (i)           any
such election shall not take effect until twelve (12) months after it is
received by the Committee;

       

      (ii)           in
the case of an election to defer a payment to be made on account of an event
other than the Participant’s death, Disability or Unforeseeable Emergency, the
first payment made under such election shall not occur until at least five (5)
years later than such payment would otherwise have been made (or begin to be
made); and

       

      (iii)           any
such election is subject to the restrictions in section 5.1.

       

      Section
3.2                                Supplemental Savings
Benefit.

       

      (a)           A
Participant whose benefits under the Savings Plan are limited by one or more of
the Applicable Limitations shall be eligible for a supplemental savings benefit
under this Plan in an amount equal to:

       

      (i)           the
aggregate amount of Employer Contributions (including any reallocation of
amounts forfeited upon the termination of employment of others participating in
the Savings Plan) that would have been credited to the Participant's account
under the Savings Plan in the absence of the Applicable Limitations if for all
relevant periods he had made the maximum amount of elective deferrals under
section 402(g) of the Code or voluntary employee contributions under section
401(a) of the Code required to qualify for the maximum possible allocation of
Employer Contributions (and without regard to the amount of elective deferrals
or voluntary employee contributions actually made); over

       

      
        
           

        

        
          6

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

      (ii)           the
aggregate amount of Employer Contributions (including any reallocation of
amounts forfeited upon the termination of employment of others participating in
the Savings Plan) actually credited to the Participant's account under the
Savings Plan for such periods;

       

      adjusted
for earnings and losses as provided in section 3.2(b); provided, however, that if
the Participant dies before the payment of such supplemental savings benefit
begins, no benefit shall be payable under this section 3.2 and the survivor
benefit, if any, which may be payable shall be determined under section
4.2.

       

      (b)           The
Committee shall cause to be maintained a bookkeeping account to reflect all
Employer Contributions (including any reallocation of amounts forfeited upon the
termination of employment of others participating in the Savings Plan) that
cannot be made to a Participant's account under the Savings Plan due to the
Applicable Limitations and amounts under section 3.2(c), and shall cause such
bookkeeping account to be credited with all such Employer Contributions as of
the date on which such Employer Contributions would have been credited to the
Participant's account in the Savings Plan in the absence of the Applicable
Limitations. The balance credited to such bookkeeping account shall be adjusted
for distributions, withdrawals, earnings or losses as follows:

       

      (i)           except
as provided in section 3.2(b)(ii), the balance credited to such bookkeeping
account shall be credited with interest as of the last day of each calendar
month at a rate for such month equal to one-twelfth of the annualized yield on
30-year Treasury Securities, Constant Maturities, prescribed by the Commissioner
of Internal Revenue for such month pursuant to section 417(e) of the Code;
or

       

      (ii)           if
and to the extent permitted by the Committee, as though such Employer
Contributions had been contributed to a trust fund and invested, for the benefit
of the Participant, in such investments at such time or times as the Participant
shall have designated in such form and manner as the Committee shall
prescribe.

       

      (iii)           The
balance credited to the bookkeeping account shall be reduced for any
distributions or withdrawals.

       

      (c)           Effective
June 15, 2008, the balance credited to the bookkeeping accounts of Messrs.
Timothy King and Michael Pucella under this section 3.2 shall be adjusted as
follows:

       

      
        
           

        

        
          7

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

      (i)           in
the case of Mr. King, the balance credited to his a bookkeeping account shall be
credited with an additional Seven Thousand Seven Hundred Sixty-Eight Dollars
($7,768); and

       

      (ii)           in
the case of Mr. Pucella, the balance credited to his bookkeeping account shall
be credited with an additional Six Thousand One Hundred Ninety-One Dollars
($6,191).

       

      (d)           The
supplemental savings benefit payable to a Participant hereunder shall be paid in
a single lump sum within the first thirty days of the calendar year following
the calendar year in which the Participant's Termination of Service occurs and
shall be equal to the balance credited to his bookkeeping account as of the last
day of the last calendar month to end prior to the date of payment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant may, subject to the restrictions in
section 5.1, within thirty (30) days after first becoming eligible to
participate in the Plan for purposes of receiving a supplemental savings
benefit, elect that such supplemental savings benefit (to the extent that such
benefit is attributable to compensation for services performed after such
election) be paid in a different form or commencing at a different time by
filing a written election, in such form and manner as the Committee may
prescribe, within such thirty (30) day period.

       

      (e)           Notwithstanding
section 3.2(d), subject to the consent of the Committee in its sole and absolute
discretion, each Participant may, by written election given in such form and
manner as the Committee may prescribe, elect to change the time and manner of
distribution of the balance credited to the supplemental savings benefit;
provided, however, that:

       

      (i)           any
such election shall not take effect until twelve (12) months after it is
received by the Committee;

       

      (ii)           in
the case of an election to defer a payment to be made on account of an event
other than the Participant’s death, Disability or Unforeseeable Emergency, the
first payment made under such election shall not occur until at least five (5)
years later than such payment would otherwise have been made (or begin to be
made); and

       

      (iii)           any
such election is subject to the restrictions in section 5.1.

       

      Section
3.3                                Supplemental ESOP
Benefits

       

      (a)           A
Participant whose benefits under the ESOP are limited by one of more of the
Applicable Limitations shall be eligible for a supplemental ESOP benefit under
this Plan in an amount equal to the sum of:

       

      (i)           for
each period for which an allocation of Shares is made under the ESOP, a number
of Stock Units the excess of (A) the number of Shares that bears the same
relationship to such Participant's compensation taken into account in
determining allocations under the ESOP (without regard to any limit on such
compensation pursuant to any Applicable Limitation) as the number of Shares
allocated for such period under the ESOP to an individual whose allocation is
not limited by any Applicable Limitation bears to such person's compensation
taken into account in determining allocations under the ESOP over (b) the actual
number of Shares allocated to such Participant under the ESOP for such period,
taking into account in both cases Shares allocated as a result of forfeitures;
and

       

      
        
           

        

        
          8

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

      (ii)           if
and to the extent that Employer Contributions to the ESOP result in allocations
to the Participant's account of assets other than Shares for any period, an
amount for each period equal to the excess (if any) of (A) the dollar amount
that bears the same relationship to such Participant's compensation taken into
account in allocating Employer Contributions under the ESOP (without regard to
any limit on such compensation pursuant to any Applicable Limitation) as the
dollar amount of Employer Contributions allocated for such period under the ESOP
to an individual whose allocation is not limited by any Applicable Limitation
bears to such person's compensation taken into account in determining
allocations under the ESOP over (b) the actual dollar amount of Employer
Contributions allocated to such Participant under the ESOP for such period,
taking into account in both cases dollar amounts allocated as a result of
forfeitures.

       

      adjusted
for earnings and losses as provided in section 3.3(b); provided, however, that if
the Participant dies before the payment of such supplemental ESOP benefit
begins, no benefit shall be payable under this section 3.3 and the survivor
benefit, if any, which may be payable shall be determined under section
4.3.

       

      (b)           The
Committee shall cause to be maintained a bookkeeping account to reflect all
Shares and Employer Contributions (including any reallocation of amounts
forfeited upon the termination of employment of others participating in the
ESOP) that cannot be allocated to a Participant's account under the ESOP due to
the Applicable Limitations and amounts under section 3.3(c), and shall cause
such bookkeeping account to be credited with such Employer Contributions and
Stock Units reflecting such Shares as of the date on which such Employer
Contributions and Shares, respectively, would have been credited to the
Participant's account in the ESOP in the absence of the Applicable Limitations.
The balance credited to such bookkeeping account shall be adjusted for
distributions, withdrawals, earnings or losses as follows:

       

      (i)           all
Stock Units shall be adjusted from time to time so that the value of a Stock
Unit on any date is equal to the Fair Market Value of Share on such date and the
number of Stock Units shall be adjusted as and when appropriate to reflect any
stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, exchange, conversion, or other
event generally affecting the number of Shares held by all holders of Shares;
and

       

      (ii)           (A)           except
as provided in section 3.3(b)(ii)(B), the balance credited to such bookkeeping
account that does not consist of Stock Units shall be credited with interest as
of the last day of each calendar month at a rate for such month
equal  to one twelfth of the annualized yield on 30-year Treasury
Securities, Constant Maturities, prescribed by the Commissioner of Internal
Revenue for such month pursuant to section 417(e) of the Code; or

       

      
        
           

        

        
          9

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

      (B)           if
and to the extent permitted by the Committee, the balance credited to such
bookkeeping account that does not consist of Stock Units shall be adjusted as
though such Employer Contributions had been contributed to a trust find and
invested, for the benefit of the Participant, in such investments at such time
or times as the Participant shall have designated in such form and manner as the
Committee shall prescribe;

       

      (iii)           The
balance credited to the bookkeeping account shall be reduced for any
distributions or withdrawals.

       

      provided, however, that to
the extent that the Participant shall receive on a current basis any dividend
paid with respect to Shares credited to his account under the ESOP, the
bookkeeping account established for him under this Plan shall not be adjusted to
reflect such dividend and, instead, the Participant shall be paid an amount per
Stock Unit equal to the dividend par Share received by the Participant under the
ESOP, at substantially the same time as such dividend is paid under the
ESOP.

       

      (c)           Effective
June 15, 2008, the balance credited to the bookkeeping accounts of Messrs.
Timothy King and Michael Pucella under this section 3.3 shall be adjusted as
follows:

       

      (i)           in
the case of Mr. King, the balance credited to his a bookkeeping account shall be
credited with an additional Twenty-Seven Thousand Sixty-Nine Dollars ($27,069);
and

       

      (ii)           in
the case of Mr. Pucella, the balance credited to his bookkeeping account shall
be credited with an additional Twenty-Two Thousand Five Hundred Seventy-Three
Dollars ($22,573).

       

      (d)           The
supplemental ESOP benefit payable to a Participant hereunder shall be paid in a
single lump sum within the first thirty days of the calendar year in which the
Participant's Termination of Service occurs and shall be in an amount equal to
the balance credited to his bookkeeping account. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
a Participant may, subject to the restrictions in section 5.1, within thirty
(30) days after first becoming eligible to participate in the Plan for purposes
of receiving a supplemental ESOP benefit, elect that such supplemental ESOP
benefit (to the extent that such benefit is attributable to compensation for
services performed after such election) be paid in a different form or
commencing at a different time by filing a written election, in such form and
manner as the Committee may prescribe, within such thirty (30) day
period.

       

      (e)           Notwithstanding

distribution of the balance credited to the supplemental retirement benefit;
provided, however, that:

the case of an election to defer a payment to be made on account of an event
other than the Participant’s death, Disability or Unforeseeable Emergency, the
first payment made under such election shall not occur until at least five (5)
years later than such payment would otherwise have been made (or begin to be

Death Benefits.

       

      If a
Participant who is eligible for a supplemental retirement benefit under section
3.1 dies before the payment of such benefit begins, a supplemental survivor's
retirement benefit shall be payable to the Participant's Beneficiary under this
Plan in amount equal to the excess (if any) of (a) the survivor's benefit that
would have been payable under the Retirement Plan commencing at the earliest
permissible date in the absence of the Applicable Limitations if the Participant
had effectively designated such Beneficiary as his beneficiary under the
Retirement Plan, over (b) the survivor's benefit would have been payable under
the Retirement Plan commencing at the earliest permissible date after giving
effect too the Applicable Limitations if the Participate had effectively
designated such Beneficiary as his beneficiary under the Retirement
Plan.  Such benefit shall be paid in a single lump sum which is the
Actuarial Equivalent of the benefit described in the preceding sentence within
the first thirty days of the calendar year following the death of the
Participant.

dies before the payment of such benefit begins, a supplemental survivor's
savings benefit shall be payable to the Participant's Beneficiary under this
Plan in amount equal to the balance credited to the bookkeeping account
established for the Participant under section 3.2(b). Such benefit shall be paid
in a single lump within the first thirty days of the calendar year following the
death of the Participant and the bookkeeping account established for such
Participant pursuant to section 3.2(b) shall continue to be adjusted as provided
therein through the last day of the last calendar month to end prior to the date

to receive any survivor benefits payable under the Plan upon his death. Any such
designation, or change therein or revocation thereof, shall be made in writing
in the form and manner prescribed by the Committee, shall be revocable until the
death of the Participant, and shall thereafter be irrevocable; provided, however, that any
change or revocation shall be effective only if received by the Committee prior
to the Participant's or Former Participant's death.  If a Participant
or Former Participant shall die without having effectively named a Beneficiary,
he shall be deemed to have named his estate as his sole Beneficiary. If a
Participant or Former Participant and his designated Beneficiary shall die in
circumstances which give rise to doubt as to which of them shall have been the
first to die, the Participant or Former Participant shall be deemed to have
survived the Beneficiary.  If a Participant or Former Participant
designates more than one Beneficiary, all shall be deemed to have equal shares
unless the Participant or Former Participant shall expressly provide
otherwise.

      Section
5.1                                Scheduled Distributions to
Participant.

       

      If a
Participant so elects in his initial election to participate or in any
subsequent deferral election, payment of balances attributable to amounts
deferred pursuant to such election may be made:

       

      (a)           in
a single payment as of a designated date (not earlier than the first date such
balances are otherwise payable) specified by the Participant in his
election;

       

      (b)           in
the case of benefits under section 3.1 of this Plan, in a single life annuity or
such different form of payment provided for benefits under the Retirement Plan
as the Committee may provide; or

       

      (c)           in
the case of benefits under sections 3.2 or 3.3 of this Plan, in monthly,
quarterly or annual installments over such number of years (not to exceed
fifteen (15)) and payable beginning on such date (not earlier than the first
date such balances are otherwise payable) specified by the Participant in his
election.  In the event that payment is to be made in installments,
each installment shall be equal to the balance credited to the Participant’s
Memorandum Account (or, if applicable, the portion of such Participant’s
Memorandum Account attributable to sections 3.2 or 3.3 of this Plan) as of the
last day of the quarter ending immediately prior to the date on which payment is

      Notwithstanding
anything in the Plan to the contrary, if, as of December 31 of any calendar year
following a Participant’s Termination of Service, the balance credited to his
Memorandum Account is less than or equal to the applicable dollar amount under
section 402(g)(1)(B) of the Code, the entire balance credited to his Memorandum
Account shall be distributed in a single lump sum payment as soon as practicable
during the immediately following calendar year; provided, however that if the
Participant has deferrals of compensation under any other account balance plan
that would be aggregated with this plan for purposes of section 409A of the Code
pursuant to Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-1(c)(2)(i)(B), no distribution

      TRUST
FUND

       

      Section
6.1                                Establishment of
Trust

       

      The
Company may establish a trust fund which may be used to accumulate funds to
satisfy benefit liabilities to Participants, Former Participants and their
Beneficiaries under the Plan; provided, however, that the
assets of such trust shall be subject to the claims of the creditors of the
Company in the event that it is determined that the Company is insolvent; and
provided, further, that
the trust agreement shall contain such terms, conditions and provisions as shall
be necessary to cause the Company to be considered the owner of the trust fund
for federal, state or local income tax purposes with respect to all amounts
contributed to the trust fund or any income attributable to the investments of
the trust fund. The Company shall pay all costs and expenses incurred in
establishing and maintaining such trust. Any payments made to a Participant,
Former Participant or Beneficiary from a trust established under this section
6.1 shall offset payments which would otherwise be payable by the Company in the
absence of the establishment of such trust. Any such trust will conform to the
terms of the model trust described in Revenue Procedure 92-64, as the same may
be modified from time to time.

       

      Section
6.2                                Contributions to
Trus

       

      If a
trust is established in accordance with section 6.1, the Company shall make
contributions to such trust in such amounts and at such times as may be
specified by the Committee or as may be required pursuant to the terms of the
agreement governing the establishment and operation of such trust.

       

      Section
6.3                                Unfunded Character of
Plan.

       

      Notwithstanding
the establishment of a trust pursuant to section 6.1, the Plan shall be unfunded
for purposes of the Code and ERISA. Any liability of the Bank, the Company or
another Employer to any person with respect to benefits payable under the Plan
shall be based solely upon such contractual obligations, if any, as shall be
created by the Plan, and shall give rise only to a claim against the general
assets of the Bank, the Company or such Employer. No such liability shall be
deemed to be secured by any pledge or any other encumbrance on any specific
property of the Bank, the Company or any other Employer.

       

      Section
6.4                                Payments in the Event of a
Change in Control

       

      Notwithstanding
anything in the Plan to the contrary, in the event of a Change in Control of the
Company that occurs on or after January 1, 2008, all benefits under the Plan
that have not been paid prior to the occurrence of the Change in Control
(including but not limited to the remaining installment payments in a series of
installments) shall be paid in a single lump sum upon the occurrence of the
Change in Control; provided, however, to the extent such payments are regarded
as payments on account of a Termination of Service to an individual who is a
Specified Employee, payment shall, to the extent required to comply with section
409A of the Code, be deferred until the first day of the seventh calendar month
to begin after the occurrence of the individual's Termination of
Service.
