      or the Employee hereunder.




3.4  **Suspension
      With Pay** .
      Nothing
      contained herein will preclude the Employer from releasing the Employee of
      the
      Employee's normal duties and suspending Employee, with pay, during the pendency
      of any investigation or examination to determine whether or not Cause exists
      for
      termination of the Employee.




3.5  **Suspension
      Without Pay** .
      If the
      Employee is suspended and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the

      are dismissed, the Employer may in its discretion:




(a)  Pay
      the
      Employee all or part of the compensation withheld while its contract obligations
      were suspended; and/or

      (in whole or in part) any of its obligations, which were suspended.




3.6  **Other
      Regulatory Requirements** .
      If the
      Bank is in default, as defined in Section (3)(x)(1) of the Federal Deposit
      Insurance Act, all obligations under this Agreement will terminate as of the

      the
      extent determined that continuation of the Agreement is necessary for the
      continued operation of the Bank:




(a)  by
      the
      Director (the “Director”) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)
      or his or her designee, at the time the FDIC enters into an agreement to provide
      assistance to or on behalf of the Bank under the authority of the Federal
      Deposit Insurance Act; or




(b)  by
      the
      Director or his or her designee, at the time the Director or his or her designee
      approves a supervisory merger to resolve problems relating to the operation

      or
      unsound condition.

      termination, and Benefits (or the cash equivalent of such Benefits) for a period
      equal to the remaining term of this Agreement and twelve (12) months after
      the
      expiration of said Term. The amounts payable to the Employee for the initial
      six
      (6) month period shall be paid one (1) day after six (6) months from the date
      of
      the Employee’s termination and the remaining payments will continue thereafter

3.7.2  **In
      the Event of Involuntary Termination Without Cause and Without Notice of
      Nonrenewal, or In the Event of Total and Permanent Disability or Death of the
      Employee** **.** In the
      event the Employee has been involuntarily terminated without cause and has
      not
      received a notice of nonrenewal of this Agreement or in the event of Total
      and
      Permanent Disability or Death of the Employee, the Employer shall pay to the
      Employee as Severance Pay or to his Beneficiary as a death benefit an amount

      remaining Term of this Agreement. These payments will be paid during the
      remaining Term on the normal payroll dates of the Employer. Notwithstanding
      the
      foregoing, in the event of an involuntary termination without cause, the amount
      payable to the Employee for the initial six (6) month period shall be paid
      one
      (1) day after six (6) months from the date of the Employee’s termination and the
      remaining payments will continue thereafter on the regular payroll dates of
      the
      Employer.




3.7.3  **In

      the
      event the Employee has been involuntarily terminated for cause, the Employer

      Employee shall be entitled to a lump sum payment equal to the sum of (a) to
      the
      excess of (i) 2.99 times Employee’s Average Annual Compensation over (ii) the
      aggregate present value, as determined for federal income tax purposes, of
      all
      other payments to the Employee in the nature of compensation that are treated
      for federal income tax purposes as contingent on the Change in Control plus
      (b)
      an annual bonus equal to the greater of target or actual bonus for the year
      in
      which the Agreement terminates, pro-rated for the months elapsed in the annual
      bonus period at the time of the Agreement terminates. These payments shall
      be
      paid in a lump sum by the Employer on the date that is one (1) day after six

3.8  **Calculation
      of Payment Amount Upon Change of Control** .




(a)  **Certain
      Adjustments of Payment Amount** .
      If it
      is determined that any payment or distribution, or any acceleration of vesting
      of any benefit or award, by the Employer to or for the benefit of the Employee
      (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms
      of this Agreement or otherwise) is subject to the limitations of section 280G
      of
      the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) (a “Parachute Payment”), the following
      provisions will apply:




(i)  If
      the
      aggregate present value of Parachute Payments is less than or equal to the
      280G
      limit, then no adjustment to the amount of such Parachute Payments shall be
      made.





(ii)  If
      the
      aggregate present value of Parachute Payments is greater than the 280G limit,
      but equal to or less than 110% of the 280G limit, such Parachute Payments shall
      be reduced to an amount, the present value of which maximizes the aggregate
      present value of Parachute Payments without causing such Parachute Payments
      to
      exceed the 280G limit.





(iii)  If
      the
      aggregate present value of Parachute Payments is greater than 110% of the 280G
      limit, the Employee shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a
“Gross-Up Payment”) in an amount such that after payment by the Employee of all
      taxes (including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes),
      including any excise tax imposed by Code Section 4999 or any interest or
      penalties with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any
      such interest and penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the
      “Excise Tax”) imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, the Employee retains an amount
      of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the Parachute
      Payments.





For
      purposes of this Section 3.8, “present value” shall be determined in accordance
      with Code Section 280G(d)(4), and the “280G limit” is the amount that can be
      paid under this Agreement or otherwise without causing any amount to be
      nondeductible under Code Section 280G or subject to excise tax under Section
      4999. The payment of a Gross-up Payment under this Section shall in no event
      be
      conditioned upon the Employee’s termination of employment.





7


(b)  **Determinations
      made by Accounting Firm** .
      All
      determinations required to be made under Section 3.8(a), including the aggregate
      present value of Parachute Payments, whether a reduction is required under
      Section 3.8(a)(ii) and the amount of such reduction, and whether a Gross-Up
      Payment is required under Section 3.8(a)(iii) and the amount of such Gross-Up
      Payment, shall be made by a locally recognized accounting firm jointly selected
      by the Employer and Employee (the “Accounting Firm”). The Accounting Firm shall
      provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Employer and the Employee
      within fifteen (15) business days after the termination of this Agreement.
      The
      initial Gross-Up Payment, if any, as determined pursuant to Section 3.8(a)(iii),
      shall be paid to the Employee within fifteen (15) business days after the
      receipt of the payments under Section 3.7.4. The Accounting Firm shall furnish
      the Employee with an opinion that he or she has substantial authority to
      complete and file his or her Federal income tax return in a manner consistent
      with the Accounting Firm’s determination of the appropriate amount of Parachute
      Payments reportable by the Employee and of the appropriate amount of Excise
      Tax
      required to be paid, if any. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall
      be
      binding upon the Employer and the Employee.




(c)  **Special
      Rules Applicable to Reduction of Payments** .
      The
      Employee shall determine which and how much of the Parachute Payments shall
      be
      reduced consistent with the requirements of Section 3.8(a)(ii), provided that,
      if the Employee does not make such determination within ten (10) business days
      after the receipt of the calculations made by the Accounting Firm, the Employer
      shall elect which and how much of the Parachute Payments shall be eliminated
      or
      reduced consistent with the requirements of Section 3.8(a)(ii) and shall notify
      the Employee promptly of such election.




(d)  **Special
      Rules Applicable to Gross-Up Payments** .
      The
      Employee shall notify the Employer in writing of any claim by the Internal
      Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the payment by the Employer
      of the Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable
      but not later than ten (10) business days after the Employee knows of such
      claim
      and shall apprise the Employer of the nature of such claim and the date on
      which
      such claim is requested to be paid. The Employee shall not pay such claim prior
      to the expiration of the thirty (30) day period following the date on which
      it
      gives such notice to the Employer (or such shorter period ending on the date
      that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due). If the Employer
      notifies the Employee in writing prior to the expiration of such period that
      it
      desires to contest such claim, the Employee shall:




(i)  give
      the
      Employer any information reasonably requested by the Employer relating to such
      claim,





(ii)  take
      such
      action in connection with contesting such claim as the Employer shall reasonably
      request in writing from time to time, including, without limitation, accepting
      legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably
      jointly selected by the Employer and Employee,





(iii)  cooperate
      with the Employer in good faith in order effectively to contest such claim,
      and





8


(iv)  permit
      the Employer to participate in any proceedings relating to such
      claim,





provided,
      however, that the Employer shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses
      (including interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest
      and
      shall indemnify and hold the Employee harmless, on an after-tax basis, for
      any
      Excise Tax or income tax, including interest and penalties with respect thereto,
      imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs and expenses.
      Without limitation on the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.8(d), the
      Employer shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such contest
      and, at its sole option, may pursue or forgo any and all administrative appeals,
      proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing authority in respect
      of
      such claim and may, at its sole option, either direct the Employee to pay the
      tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner,
      and the Employee agrees to prosecute such contest to a determination before
      any
      administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more
      appellate courts, as the Employer shall determine. The Employer’s control of the
      contest shall be limited to issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment
      would be payable hereunder and the Employee shall be entitled to settle or
      contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue
      Service or any other taxing authority.




If
      the
      Employer exhausts its remedies pursuant to this Section 3.8(d) and the Employee
      thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting
      Firm
      shall determine the amount of the Gross-Up Payment that the Employer should
      have
      made (“Gross-Up Deficiency”). The amount of any such Gross-Up Deficiency shall
      be promptly paid by the Employer to or for the benefit of the Employee. To
      the
      extent that any Gross-Up Deficiency arises in the context of a Parachute Payment
      that was determined pursuant to Section 3.8(a)(ii), and therefore reduced to
      the
      280G limit, when in fact, the amount of such Parachute Payment should have
      been
      determined under Section 3.8(a)(iii), the amount of any Gross-Up Deficiency
      shall include the additional Parachute Payment due as a result of the
      calculation of the amount under Section 3.8(a)(iii).





(e)  **Overpayments/Underpayments** .
      As a
      result of the uncertainty in the application of Code Section 280G at the time
      of
      the initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible
      that
      the Parachute Payments will have been made by the Employer which should not
      have
      been made (“Overpayment”), or that additional Parachute Payments which should
      have been made by the Employer were not made (“Underpayment”), in each case
      consistent with the calculations required to be made hereunder. Overpayments
      and
      Underpayments arising in connection with Parachute Payments appropriately
      determined pursuant to Section 3.8(a)(i) or Section 3.8(a)(ii) are governed
      by
      this Section 3.8(e). Any Overpayment or Underpayment arising in connection
      with
      a Parachute Payment that is appropriately determined pursuant to Section
      3.8(a)(iii) are governed by the provisions of Section 3.8(d).




(i)  **Overpayments** .
      The
      provisions of this subparagraph (i) apply in connection with a Parachute Payment
      that is appropriately determined pursuant to Section 3.8(a)(ii). If the
      Accounting Firm, based upon the assertion of a deficiency by the Internal
      Revenue Service against the Employee which the Accounting Firm believes has
      a
      high probability of success, determines that an Overpayment has been made,
      any
      such Overpayment paid or distributed by the Employer to or for the benefit
      of
      the Employee shall be treated for all purposes as a loan ab  initio to the
      Employee which the Employee shall repay to the Employer together with interest
      at the applicable federal rate provided for in Code Section 7872(f)(2);
      provided, however, that no such loan shall be deemed to have been made and
      no
      amount shall be payable by the Employee to the Employer if and to the extent
      such deemed loan and payment would not either reduce the amount on which the
      Employee is subject to tax under Code Sections 280G and 4999 or generate a
      refund of such taxes.





9


(ii)  **Underpayments** .
      The
      provisions of this subparagraph (ii) apply in connection with a Parachute
      Payment that is appropriately determined pursuant to Section 3.8(a)(i) or
      Section 3.8(a)(ii). If the Accounting Firm, based upon controlling precedent
      or
      other substantial authority, determines that an Underpayment has occurred,
      any
      such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Employer to or for the benefit
      of the Employee, together with interest at the applicable federal rate provided
      for in Code Section 7872(f)(2).





4.  **COMPENSATION
      AND BENEFITS.**




4.1  **Compensation** .
      The
      Employee will receive the following salary and benefits:




(a)  **Base
      Salary** .
      During
      the Term, the Employee will receive a base salary at the rate of $169,800 per
      annum, payable in substantially equal installments in accordance with the Bank's
      regular payroll practices (“Base Salary”). The Employee's Base Salary will be
      reviewed by the Board annually, and the Employee will be entitled to receive
      annually an increase in such amount, if any, as may be determined by the
      Board.




(b)  **Incentive
      Compensation** .




(i)  In
      addition to Employee's Base Salary under Section 4.1(a), the Employer may,
      in
      its sole discretion, pay the Employee a cash or non-cash bonus as determined
      each year by the Board.





(ii)  The
      Employee will also be entitled to participate in such other bonus, incentive
      and
      other executive compensation programs as are made available to senior management
      of the Employer from time to time.





The
      bonus
      amounts and options to which the Employee may be entitled pursuant to this
      Section 4.1(b) are referred to herein as “Incentive
      Compensation”.




(b)  **No
      Compensation as a Director** .
      The
      Employee will not be compensated for service as a director.




10


4.2  **Annual
      Leave** .
      On a
      non-cumulative basis, the Employee will be entitled to annual leave in each
      year
      of this Agreement in accordance with the Bank's leave policy as then in effect,
      during which the Employee's Base Salary will be paid in full. Any leave not
      used
      by Employee may be converted to cash compensation based on the Employee’s the
      current Base Salary at the end of each year, if permitted under the Bank’s leave
      policy. ****




4.3  **Benefits** .
      In
      addition to the Base Salary and Incentive Compensation, the Employee will be
      entitled to such benefits as may be available from time to time for employees
      of
      the Employer. All such benefits will be awarded and administered in accordance
      with the Employer's standard policies and practices. Such benefits may include,
      by way of example only, health, dental, vision, profit-sharing plans,
      retirement, disability insurance benefits and such other benefits as the
      Employer deems appropriate. The Employer shall also provide to the Employee
      (at
      no cost to Employee), life insurance equal to two times the then current annual
      salary of Employee but not to exceed $300,000, payable to a beneficiary or
      beneficiaries selected by the Employee and an annual automobile allowance of
      $9,000.00.




4.4  **Withholding** .
      The
      Employer may deduct from each payment of compensation hereunder all amounts
      required to be deducted and withheld in accordance with applicable federal
      and
      state income, FICA and other withholding requirements.




4.5  **Business
      Expenses/Membership Reimbursements** .
      The
      Employer shall reimburse the Employee for (a) reasonable business expenses
      (including travel) incurred by the Employee in the performance of the Employee's
      duties hereunder, as approved from time to time by the Board, and (b) dues
      and other business-related expenditures, including initiation fees, associated
      with membership in professional associations which are commensurate with the
      Employee's position; provided, however, that the Employee must, as a condition
      of reimbursement, submit verification of the nature and amount of such expenses
      in sufficient detail to comply with rules and regulations promulgated by the
      Internal Revenue Service and the reimbursement policies adopted from time to
      time by the
      Employer.




5.  **COMPANY
      INFORMATION**




5.1  **Ownership
      of Information** .
      All
      Company Information received or developed by the Employee while employed by
      the
      Employer will remain the sole and exclusive property of the
      Employer.




5.2  **Obligations
      of the Employee** .
      The
      Employee agrees (a) to hold Company Information in strictest confidence,
      (b) not to use, duplicate, reproduce, distribute, disclose or otherwise
      disseminate Company Information or any physical embodiments thereof and (c)
      not
      to take or fail to take any action with respect to Confidential Information
      that
      would result in any Company Information losing its character or ceasing to
      qualify as Confidential Information or a Trade Secret. In the event that the
      Employee is required by law to disclose any Company Information, the Employee
      will not make such disclosure unless (and then only to the extent that) the
      Employee has been advised by the Company’s legal counsel that such disclosure is
      required by law and then only after prior written notice is given to the
      Employer when the Employee becomes aware that such disclosure has been requested
      and is required by law. This Section 5 will survive the termination of this
      Agreement with respect to Confidential Information for so long as it remains
      Confidential Information, but for no longer than three (3) years following
      termination of this Agreement, and this Section 5 will survive termination
      of
      this Agreement with respect to Trade Secrets for so long as is permitted by
      the
      then-current Maryland Trade Secrets Act.




11


5.3  **Delivery
      upon Request or Termination** .
      Upon
      request by the Employer, and in any event upon termination of employment with
      the Employer, the Employee will promptly deliver to the Employer all property
      belonging to the Employer, including without limitation, all Company Information
      then in the Employee's possession or control.




6.  **NON-COMPETITION** .
      The
      Employee agrees that during the Term hereunder and, in the event of the
      Employee's termination of employment for any reason, thereafter for the period
      of six (6) months, the Employee will not (except on behalf of or with the prior
      written consent of the Employer), within the Area, either directly or
      indirectly, on the Employee's own behalf or in the service or on behalf of
      others, as a principal, partner, officer, director, manager, supervisor,
      administrator, consultant, executive employee or in any other capacity which
      involves duties and responsibilities similar to those undertaken for the
      Employer, engage in any business which is the same as or essentially the same
      as
      the Business of the Employer.




7.  **NON-SOLICITATION
      OF CUSTOMERS** .
      The
      Employee agrees that during the Term hereunder and, in the event of the
      Employee's termination of employment for any reason, thereafter for the period
      of time, if any, the Employer is obligated to make payments under Section 3.7,
      the Employee will not (except on behalf of or with the prior written consent
      of
      the Employer), within the Area, on the Employee's own behalf or in the service
      or on behalf of others, solicit, divert or appropriate or attempt to solicit,
      divert or appropriate, directly or by assisting others, any business from any
      of
      the Employer's customers, including actively sought prospective customers,
      with
      whom the Employee has or had material contact during the last two (2) years
      of
      the Employee's employment, for purposes of providing products or services that
      are competitive with those provided by the Employer.




8.  **NON-SOLICITATION
      OF EMPLOYEES** .
      The
      Employee agrees that during the Term hereunder and, in the event of the
      Employee's termination of employment for any reason, thereafter for the period
      of time, if any, the Employer is obligated to make payments under Section 3.7,
      the Employee will not (except for Employee’s Administrative Assistant), within
      the Area, on the Employee's own behalf or in the service or on behalf of others,
      solicit, recruit or hire away or attempt to solicit, recruit or hire away,
      directly or by assisting others, any employee of the Employer or its Affiliates,
      whether or not such employee is a full-time employee or a temporary employee
      of
      the Employer or its Affiliates and whether or not such employment is pursuant
      to
      written agreement and whether or not such employment is for a determined period
      or is at will.




12


9.  **REMEDIES.** The
      Employee agrees that the covenants contained in Sections 5 through 8 of this
      Agreement are of the essence of this Agreement; that each of the covenants
      is
      reasonable and necessary to protect the business, interests and properties
      of
      the Employer; and that irreparable loss and damage will be suffered by the
      Employer should the Employee breach any of the covenants. Therefore, the
      Employee agrees and consents that, in addition to all the remedies provided
      by
      law or in equity, the Employer shall be entitled to a temporary restraining
      order and temporary and permanent injunctions to prevent a breach or
      contemplated breach of any of the covenants. The Employer and the Employee
      agree
      that all remedies available to the Employer or the Employee, as applicable,
      will
      be cumulative.




10.  **SEVERABILITY.** The
      parties agree that each of the provisions included in this Agreement is
      separate, distinct and severable from the other provisions of this Agreement
      and
      that the invalidity or unenforceability of any Agreement provision will not
      affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement.
      Further, if any provision of this Agreement is ruled invalid or unenforceable
      by
      a court of competent jurisdiction because of a conflict between the provision
      and any applicable law or public policy, the provision will be redrawn to make
      the provision consistent with and valid and enforceable under the law or public
      policy.




11.  **NO
      SET-OFF BY THE EMPLOYEE.** The
      existence of any claim, demand, action or cause of action by the Employee
      against the Employer, or any Affiliate of the Employer, whether predicated
      upon
      this Agreement or otherwise, will not constitute a defense to the enforcement
      by
      the Employer of any of its rights hereunder.




12.  **NOTICE.** All
      notices and other communications required or permitted under this Agreement
      will
      be in writing and, if mailed by prepaid first-class mail or certified mail,

      hereto.




14.  **WAIVER.** A waiver
      by the Employer of any breach of this Agreement by the Employee will not be

      thereof, will be settled by binding arbitration in accordance with the

      enforcement of an arbitration award and the Employee must employ separate legal
      counsel, the Employer shall advance to the Employee, within thirty (30) days
      after receiving copies of invoices submitted by Employee, any and all reasonable
      attorneys' fees and expenses incurred with preparing, investigating and
      litigating such action, proceeding or suit. The Employee must reimburse the
      Employer for any and all advances that exceed the first $10,000 advanced to
      the
      Employee for such legal expenses if and to the extent that a final decision
      by a
      court of competent jurisdiction has determined that the Employee was not
      justified in challenging the arbitration award under this
      Agreement.

      Agreement will be construed and enforced under and in accordance with the laws

      matter of this Agreement are hereby expressly terminated.
