Employment. Each of the Company and the Bank agrees to employ the Executive as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company
and of the Bank and as the President of the Bank, the Executive hereby agrees to such employment, during the period and upon the

Section
2.

on the date of this Agreement and ending on the third anniversary date of this Agreement, plus such extensions, if any, as are
provided pursuant to Section 2(b).

of the Executive’s employment with the Company and the Bank for any reason whatsoever, any daily extensions provided pursuant
to this Section 2(b), if not therefore discontinued, shall automatically cease.






    	 



    	 



    
(c)               
Subject to Section 3, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to prohibit the Company or the Bank from terminating the
Executive’s employment at any time during the Employment Period with or without notice for any reason; provided, however,
that the relative rights and obligations of the Company, the Bank and the Executive in the event of any such termination shall
be determined under this Agreement.


Section
3.               
Duties. The Executive shall serve as Chief Executive Officer of each of the Company and the Bank and as President of
the Bank, having such power, authority and responsibility and performing such duties as are prescribed by or under the Bylaws
of the Company and the Bank and as are customarily associated with such position. The Executive shall devote his full business
time and attention (other than during weekends, holidays, approved vacation periods, and periods of illness or approved leaves
of absence) to the business and affairs of the Company and the Bank and shall use his best efforts to advance the interests of
the Company and the Bank. The Executive shall at all times report to the Boards of Directors of the Company and the Bank. All
decisions by the Boards of Directors of the Company and the Bank concerning the Executive’s employment, including without
limitation, the termination of the Executive, shall require the prior written consent of at least eighty percent (80%) of the
entire Board of Directors (not including the vote of the Executive), and the Company and the Bank shall adopt and maintain their
Bylaws and other organizational documents to reflect such vote requirement. The Company and the Bank shall provide evidence of
such written consent to the Executive as to any actions that require such written consent.


Section
4.               
Cash Compensation. In consideration for the services to be rendered by the Executive hereunder, the Company and/or the
Bank, in such combination thereof as may be agreed by the Boards of Directors of the Company and the Bank, shall pay to the Executive
a salary at an initial annualized rate of ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($125,000.00), payable in approximately
equal installments in accordance with the Company’s and/or the Bank’s customary payroll practices for senior officers
less applicable payroll taxes.






    	-2-



    	 



    
Commencing on the first day of the calendar month subsequent to the later to occur of (a) the day
that the Company and the Bank have consolidated total assets of at least $150 million, and (b) the last day of the month during
which the Company achieves its first month of profitability on a consolidated basis, the Executive’s salary shall be automatically
increased to a minimum annual rate of TWO HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($250,000.00), payable in approximately equal
installments in accordance with the Company’s and/or the Bank’s customary payroll practices for senior officers less
applicable payroll taxes. Effective January 1, 2012, the Executive's salary shall be increased to a minimum annual rate of THREE
HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($350,000), payable in approximately equal installments in accordance with the Company's
and/or the Bank's customary payroll practices for senior officers less applicable payroll taxes. At least annually after the time
that the salary is increased to $350,000 or more and thereafter during the Employment Period, the Board of Directors of the Bank
and/or the Company, or the Compensation Committees thereof, shall review the Executive’s annual rate of salary and may,
in its or their discretion, approve an increase therein. In no event shall the Executive’s annual rate of salary under this
Agreement in effect at a particular time be reduced without his prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in the Executive’s
sole discretion. In addition to his base salary, beginning with the fiscal quarter of the Company during which the Company achieves
its first month of profitability on a consolidated basis, and for each fiscal quarter thereafter, the Executive shall be paid
additional cash compensation (the “Cash Incentive Compensation”) equal to two percent (2%) of the Company’s
consolidated net income before taxes for each such fiscal quarter (excluding extraordinary items as defined in APB #30 (or any
successor bulletin) and excluding restructuring charges and other integration and reorganization expenses and charges relating
to mergers, acquisitions or transactions of similar effect) for financial reporting purposes, but in no event shall the total
Cash Incentive Compensation payable to the Executive with respect to any fiscal year exceed the Executive's base salary for such
fiscal year. In the event that the period for which the Cash Incentive Compensation payable to the Executive is less than a full
fiscal quarter (e.g., where the effective date of termination of this Agreement is not as of the end of a quarter), the
amount of Cash Incentive Compensation payable to the Executive shall be calculated by multiplying the Cash Incentive Compensation
to which the Executive would have been entitled for such fiscal quarter (had he been employed for the entire quarter) by a fraction,
the numerator of which is the number of days during such fiscal quarter up to and including the effective date of termination,
and the denominator of which is the number of days in such fiscal quarter. Seventy-five percent (75%) of such Cash Incentive Compensation
shall be paid by the Company to the Executive quarterly, within forty-five (45) days after the end of each such calendar quarter.
The remaining twenty-five percent (25%) of the Cash Incentive Compensation calculated with respect to each fiscal quarter shall
be held back by the Company and the Bank and shall be subject to a clawback based on a comparison of the total net Cash Incentive
Compensation that would have been earned if the calculation were made on an annual basis as opposed to the quarterly calculations;
the held-back amount shall be paid to the Executive within thirty (30) days after the Company has filed its Annual Report on Form
10-K (the "Form 10-K") with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") with respect to the fiscal year
in question, unless such net annual calculation results in a lower number than the sum of the positive quarterly calculations,
in which event the held-back amount payable at such time shall be reduced by the amount of such difference. In addition to the
foregoing salary and Cash Incentive Compensation, the Executive may receive other cash compensation from the Company and/or the
Bank for services hereunder at such times, in such amounts and on such terms and conditions as the Boards may determine from time
to time. The term “Cash Compensation” shall mean the total of the Executive’s salary, the Cash Incentive Compensation
and any other cash compensation paid to the Executive pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, unreduced by any 401(k)
plan elective deferrals. The term “Compensation” shall mean the aggregate of all taxable compensation of any nature
whatsoever unless clearly indicated to the contrary in the context so used.

Section
5.               
Employee Benefit Plans and Programs. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be treated as an employee of the
Company and the Bank and shall be entitled to participate in and receive benefits pursuant to: (A) any and all employee pension
plans (“Employee Pension Benefit Plans” as that term is defined in the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974 (“ERISA”) and whether or not such plan is a plan covered by ERISA), including but not limited to all qualified
or non-qualified retirement, pension, savings, profit-sharing or stock bonus plans, and (B) any and all welfare benefit plans
(Employee Welfare Benefit Plans (as that term is defined in ERISA and whether or not such plan is a plan covered by ERISA)) including
but not limited to group life, health (including hospitalization, medical and major medical, prescription drug), dental, accident
and long-term disability insurance plans, and (C) any other employee benefit and compensation plans (including, but not limited
to, any incentive compensation plans or programs, stock option and appreciation rights plans and restricted stock plans) as may
from time to time be maintained by, or cover employees of, the Company or the Bank, in accordance with the terms and conditions
of such employee benefit plans and programs and compensation plans and programs and consistent with the Company’s and the
Bank’s customary practices and whether or not such plans are ERISA plans. Such benefits or plans shall collectively be referred
to as “Employee Benefit Plans.”


Without
regard to the foregoing, the Executive shall affirmatively be provided the following Employee Benefit Plans during the Employment
Period commencing as of the Employment Effective Date without regard to the respective eligibility or terms or conditions of the
Employee Benefit Plans:


(a)               
From the date of this Agreement through December 31, 2011, the Executive shall be granted by the Company, pursuant to terms
as contained in stock option agreements, stock options in an amount equal to three and one-third percent (3.33%) of the issued
and outstanding common stock of the Company from time to time (not including any common stock outstanding as a result of the exercise
by the Executive of options granted to him). Any options issued under this provision on or after January 1, 2007 shall be granted
with an exercise price equal to the fair market value (as defined in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”))
of the underlying shares of common stock and shall vest and become exercisable in five (5) equal increments on the 12, 24, 36,
48 and 60 month anniversaries after the date of grant; provided, however, that notwithstanding any other provision in the Agreement
to the contrary, in the event (i) the Executive is terminated by the Company not for “cause” as defined in Section
10(a)(i) of the Agreement, (ii) of a Change of Control, (iii) of the death of the Executive, or (iv) of the Disability of the
Executive, then any unvested outstanding options granted under this provision upon the date of one of these events shall become
immediately vested and exercisable upon such date. Such options may be exercised through net share settlements (i.e., the
Company delivers to the Executive an amount of shares of common stock with a current fair value equal to the gain) pursuant to
the terms of the applicable stock option agreement entered into between the Executive and the Company. No additional stock options
shall be issued pursuant to this Section 5(a) after December 31, 2011.


(b)              
The Company shall provide group medical insurance coverage to the Executive, his spouse and his dependent children, and
such plan shall include reasonable coverage for medical, hospital, surgical, prescription drug coverage and major medical expenses.
The Company and/or the Bank shall pay all premium expenses of the Executive, his spouse and his dependent children in connection
with such group medical insurance.


(c)               
The Company shall self-insure or provide and pay the premium costs of short-term and long-term disability policies to compensate
the Executive in the event of his incapacity due to physical or mental illness, with coverage in an amount equal to at least seventy-five
percent (75%) of the Executive’s highest aggregate annualized Cash Compensation in the three (3) fiscal years immediately
preceding the determination of disability.






    	-4-



    	 



    
(d)              
During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to up to eight (8) weeks of vacation in each calendar year,
and shall be compensated with respect thereto in accordance with the Company’s and the Bank’s normal vacation policies.
The Executive shall also be entitled to all paid holidays in accordance with the Company’s and the Bank’s normal holiday
policies.


(e)               
The Company or the Bank shall own and pay the costs of premiums on guaranteed renewable straight term life insurance insuring
the life of the Executive in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) two (2) times the Executive’s base salary or (ii) $250,000.00,
and the Company or Bank shall designate the beneficiary of such policy as such person or persons named by the Executive from time
to time.


(f)               
At the Executive’s election, the Company shall provide to the Executive either (i) an automobile allowance in
the amount of $1,200.00 plus tax for each calendar month or portion thereof during the Employment Period, or (ii) the full-time
use of a company car, to be selected by the Executive, which company car shall be replaced at its 24-month anniversary by another
company car to be selected by the Executive. The Executive shall also be provided with a credit card to purchase gasoline for
the company car. Allowances under this Section 5(f) may be made pursuant to either an accountable or non-accountable expense plan
for federal income tax purposes as the Executive may determine.


(g)              
In addition to reimbursements for memberships described in Section 8, the Company and/or the Bank shall reimburse the Executive
for the costs associated with one (1) country club membership and one (1) dining club membership of the Executive’s choosing.


(h)              
Commencing on the first day of the calendar month following the first month that the Company and the Bank have consolidated
total assets of at least $250 million, the Company will provide benefits under the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the
“SERP”), attached hereto as Exhibit A, for the Executive.


(i)                
Beginning with the filing of the Company's Form 10-K with the SEC in 2012, and annually thereafter during the Employment
Period based on each of the Company's Forms 10-K filed annually thereafter during the Employment Period, the Executive shall be
granted by the Company, within thirty (30) days of the filing of each such Form 10-K and pursuant to the terms as contained in
restricted stock grant agreements, restricted stock grants to the extent earned based on the criteria set forth in Exhibit C attached
hereto and made a part hereof, with the total maximum annual fair market value of such grants equaling fifty percent (50%) of
the Executive's base salary for the fiscal year in question (i.e., the fiscal year which is the subject of such Form 10-K). 
Any grants issued under this provision shall vest in ten (10) equal annual increments (provided, however, that all such restricted
stock shall become immediately vested in the event (i) the Executive is terminated by the Company not for "cause" as
defined in Section 10(a)(i) of this Agreement, (ii) of a Change of Control, (iii) of the death of the Executive, or (iv) of the
Disability of the Executive), and the number of shares granted with respect to any year shall be calculated by determining the
portion of the opportunity dollar amount earned in accordance with Exhibit C divided by the fair market value (as defined in Section
409A of the Code) of one share of the Company's common stock as of the close of business on the last business day of February
in the calendar year immediately following the fiscal year in question (provided, however, that if the Company's Form 10-K is
not yet filed with the SEC as of such last business day, then the valuation date shall be the seventh (7th) day after
the date on which such Form 10-K is filed by the Company with the SEC).  A "gross-up" of the Executive's federal
income tax and federal and state payroll tax liabilities resulting from each vesting period will be paid by the Company to the
Executive within thirty (30) days of such vesting.

and officers against personal liability for acts or omissions in connection with service as an officer or director of the Company
or the Bank or service in other capacities at the request of the Company or the Bank. The coverage provided to the Executive pursuant
to this Section 6 shall be of the same scope and on the same terms and conditions as the coverage (if any) provided to other officers
or directors of the Company and the Bank.


(b)              
To the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, during the Employment Period and for a period of six (6) years thereafter,
the Company and the Bank shall indemnify the Executive against, and hold him harmless from and pay, any costs, liabilities, losses
and exposures to the fullest extent and on the most favorable terms and conditions that similar indemnification is offered to
any director or officer of the Company, the Bank or any subsidiary or affiliate of either of them, and the Company and the Bank
shall advance such expenses absent an initial determination by the Company and the Bank that the Executive shall have acted in
bad faith.


Section
7.               
Other Activities.


(a)               
The Executive may serve as a member of the boards of directors of business, community and charitable organizations. The

or investment or securities trading policy established by the Company or the Bank and generally applicable to all similarly situated
executives.


(b)              
If the Executive is discharged or suspended, or is subject to any regulatory prohibition or restriction with respect to
participation in the affairs of the Bank, he shall (subject to the Company’s powers of termination hereunder) continue to
perform services for the Company in accordance with this Agreement but shall not directly or indirectly provide services to or

Upon the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company and/or the Bank prior to a Change of Control

(i)

to defer any portion of such Cash Compensation, the terms of the applicable arrangement shall apply to distribution of such portion);
and


(ii)              
If the Triggering Event Date is a termination of employment, the Executive’s vested, accrued benefits in all Employee
Benefit Plans to which the Executive was entitled pursuant to this Agreement as of the date of termination, payable in accordance

Regulation S-K, or any successor regulation) with respect to the five (5) full fiscal years of the Employment Period immediately
preceding the year in which the Triggering Event Date occurs (such average defined in clause (B) being hereinafter referred to
as the "Highest Total Cash Compensation"). Such lump sum shall not be reduced to a present value and shall be paid in
addition to any other Compensation payments otherwise provided hereunder; and






    	-8-



    	 



    
(iv)            
Within thirty (30) days following the Triggering Event Date, payment of a lump amount equal to the excess, if any, of:


(A)            
The present value of both the current and future accrued benefits in each Employee Pension Benefit Plan that is a defined
benefit plan to which the Executive would have been entitled (which shall be computed based on the Highest Total Cash Compensation
and at the same rate of Employee Pension Benefit Plan funding and/or benefit accrual, determined separately for each such Employee
Pension Benefit Plan or as historically had been contributed, whichever is greater, for an Employment Period concluding on the
third anniversary of the Triggering Event Date as if the Executive had continued working for the Company and the Bank for
the Employment Period consisting of such three additional plan years). Such benefits shall be determined separately for each such
Employee Pension Benefit Plan in effect as of the termination date; over


(B)             
The present value of the accrued benefits to which the Executive is actually entitled under each such Employee Pension
Benefit Plan that is a defined benefit plan as of the Triggering Event Date using comparable actuarial assumptions (where
applicable) as then being utilized by such respective plan. In computing the present value of such lump sum payment, the annualized
rate of interest prescribed by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation for the computation of the value of lump sum payments
otherwise payable under terminating single employer defined benefit plans for the month in which the Executive’s termination
of employment occurs (“Applicable PBGC Rate”) shall be utilized; and


(v)              
Within thirty (30) days following the Triggering Event Date, a lump sum payment in an amount equal to the present value
of the additional employer contributions (or if greater in the case of a leveraged employee stock ownership plan or similar arrangement,
the additional assets allocable to him through debt service, based on the fair market value of such assets at termination of employment)
to which he would have been entitled under any and all qualified and non-qualified defined contribution plans maintained by, or
covering employees of, the Company or the Bank, as if he were 100% vested thereunder and continued working for the Company and
the Bank for a period of three years after the Triggering Event Date based on the Highest Total Cash Compensation achieved during
that portion of the Employment Period which is prior to the Triggering Event Date, and making the maximum amount of employee contributions,
if any, required under such plan or plans, such present value to be determined on the basis of a discount rate, compounded using
the compounding period that corresponds to the frequency with which employer contributions are made to the relevant Employee Pension
Benefit Plan; and






    	-9-



    	 



    
(vi)            
Subject to Section 26 of this Agreement, for fifteen years following the date of termination of employment (the “Benefits
Period”), the Bank and/or Company shall provide the Executive and his spouse and eligible dependents with medical and dental
insurance coverage (the “Health Care Benefits”) and life insurance benefits no less favorable than those which the
Executive and his spouse and eligible dependents were receiving immediately prior to the date of termination of employment; provided,
however, that the Health Care Benefits shall be provided during the Benefits Period in such a manner that such benefits
are excluded from the Executive’s income for federal income tax purposes; provided, further, however, that if the
Executive becomes re-employed with another employer and is eligible to receive health care benefits under another employer-provided
plan, the health care benefits provided hereunder shall be secondary to those provided under such other plan during such applicable
period of eligibility. The receipt of the Health Care Benefits shall be conditioned upon the Executive continuing to pay the monthly
premium as in effect at the Company from time to time for coverage provided to former employees under Section 4980B of the Code
in respect of the level of coverage in effect for the Executive and his spouse and dependents (i.e., single, single plus
one, or family) (the “Applicable COBRA Premium”). During the portion of the Benefits Period in which the Executive
and his eligible dependents continue to receive coverage under the Company’s Health Care Benefits plans, the Company shall
pay to the Executive a monthly amount equal to the Applicable COBRA Premium in respect of the maximum level of coverage that the
Executive could otherwise elect to receive for the Executive and the Executive’s spouse and eligible dependents if the Executive
were still an employee of the Company during the Benefits Period regardless of what level of coverage is actually elected, which
payment shall be paid in advance on the first payroll day of each month, commencing with the month immediately following the Executive’s
date of termination of employment.


Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Section 9(b), (x) in the event that the Executive is a Specified Employee (as defined in the SERP) as of the
date of termination of employment, amounts payable under Sections 9(b)(iii-v) due to a qualifying termination of employment that
constitute a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code that would otherwise
be payable during the six-month period immediately following the date of termination of employment shall instead be paid, with
interest on any delayed payment at the applicable federal rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code determined as
of the date of termination of employment, on the first business day after the date that is six months following the Executive’s
date of termination of employment (the “Delayed Payment Date”), and (y) in the event that amounts are payable under
Sections 9(b)(iii)-(v) due to a Change of Control but such Change of Control does not constitute a change in the ownership or
effective control of the Company or the Bank, or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company or the
Bank (as defined in Section 409A of the Code and regulations thereunder), such amounts shall instead be paid, with interest at
the applicable federal rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code determined as of the date of the Change of Control,
on the first to occur of the Executive’s termination of employment (or, if the Executive is a Specified Employee on such
date, the Delayed Payment Date) or a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company or the Bank, or in the ownership
of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company or the Bank (each as defined in Section 409A of the Code and regulations
thereunder). The Company, the Bank and the Executive hereby stipulate that the damages which may be incurred by the Executive
following any such termination of employment are not capable of accurate measurement as of the date first above written and that
the payments and benefits contemplated by this Section 9(b) constitute reasonable liquidated damages under the circumstances and
shall be payable without any requirement of proof of actual damage and without regard to the Executive’s efforts, if any,
to mitigate damages. The Company, the Bank and the Executive further agree that the Company and the Bank may condition the payments
and benefits (if any) due under Sections 9(b)(iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) on the receipt of the Executive’s resignation from
any and all positions which he holds as an officer, director or committee member with respect to the Company, the Bank or any
subsidiary or affiliate of either.

(c)               
Upon the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company and/or the Bank under any of the events set forth
in Sections 9(a)(i), 9(a)(ii), 10(a)(iii) or 10(a)(iv) during the Employment Period, or upon a Change of Control (as hereinafter
defined) (including under terminations referred to in Section 11(c) hereof), any options to purchase the Company’s stock
and any restricted stock grants granted to the Executive by the Company shall immediately vest, and such options may be exercised
in accordance with the terms of such option grants at any time on or prior to their original expiration date.


(d)              
The parties shall take all steps necessary (including with regard to any post-termination services by the Executive) to
ensure that the date of any termination of employment hereunder constitutes a “Separation from Service” (as defined
in the SERP).


Section
10.           
Termination without Additional Company or Bank Liability.


(a)               
In the event that the Executive’s employment with the Company and the Bank shall terminate during the Employment
Period on account of:


(i)                
The discharge of the Executive for “cause,” which, for purposes of this Agreement shall mean: (A) the Executive
intentionally engages in dishonest conduct in connection with his performance of services for the Company or the Bank resulting
in his conviction of a felony; (B) the Executive is convicted of, or pleads guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony or any
crime involving moral turpitude; (C) the Executive willfully fails or refuses to perform his duties under this Agreement and fails
to cure such breach within sixty (60) days following written notice thereof from the Company or the Bank; (D) the Executive
breaches his fiduciary duties to the Company or the Bank for personal profit; or (E) the Executive’s willful breach or violation
of any law, rule or regulation (other than traffic or boating violations or similar offenses), or final cease and desist order
in connection with his performance of services for the Company or the Bank;


(ii)              
The Executive’s voluntary resignation from employment with the Company and the Bank for reasons other than those
specified in Section 9(a), 9(b), 11(b) or 11(c);


(iii)            
The Executive’s death; or


(iv)            
A determination that the Executive is disabled (“Disability”) and eligible for long-term disability benefits
under the Company’s or the Bank’s long-term disability insurance program or, if there is no such program, under the
federal Social Security Act;






    	-11-



    	 



    
then the Company and the Bank
shall have no further obligations under this Agreement, other than the payment to the Executive (or, in the event of his death,
to his estate) of his earned but unpaid Compensation as of the date of the termination of his employment (provided that
if the Executive has made an irrevocable election under any deferred compensation arrangement subject to Section 409A of the Code
to defer any portion of such Compensation, the terms of the applicable arrangement shall apply to distribution of such portion),
and the provision of such other benefits, if any, to which he is entitled as a former employee under the employee benefit plans
and programs and compensation plans and programs maintained by, or covering employees of, the Company or the Bank. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the event of the Executive’s death during the Employment Period, the Company or the Bank shall: (X) pay
to his estate an amount equal to three months’ Cash Compensation within thirty days after appointment of the personal representative
of such estate, and (Y) shall continue to provide the medical benefits described in Section 9(b)(vi) to the Executive’s
spouse and dependent children for the period set forth Section 9(b)(vi). Upon the Executive’s retirement at age 65 (or at
age 55 through age 64 if a majority of the members of the Company’s Board of Directors confirms that this provision shall
be effective in connection with such retirement) the Company and/or the Bank shall continue to provide to the Executive (and his
spouse and dependent children, with respect to health benefits) the health and life insurance benefits described in Section 9(b)(vi)
for the period set forth in such section; provided that such retirement is a Separation From Service (as defined in the SERP).


(b)              
In the event that the Executive’s employment with the Company and the Bank shall terminate during the Employment
Period on account of any of the events set forth in Sections 10(a)(i) or 10(a)(ii), any options to purchase the Company’s
stock and any restricted stock grants granted to the Executive by the Company that have fully vested may be retained by the Executive
(or, upon death, then by the Executive’s estate) and such options may be exercised in accordance with the terms of such
option grants at any time on or prior to their original expiration date. Any unvested portion of the options and restricted stock
grants granted to the Executive will automatically lapse and become null and void as of the date of termination and no further
vesting of any option or restricted stock grant will occur.


(c)               
For purposes of Section 10(a)(i), no act or failure to act, on the part of the Executive, shall be considered “intentional”
or “willful” unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in bad faith or without reasonable belief
that the Executive’s action or omission was in the best interests of the Company and the Bank. Any act, or failure to act,
based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company or the Bank or based
upon the written advice of counsel for the Company or the Bank shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done,
by the Executive in good faith and in the best interests of the Company and the Bank. The cessation of employment of the Executive
shall not be deemed to be for “cause” within the meaning of Section 10(a)(i) unless and until there shall have been
delivered to the Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of at least eighty percent (80%) of the
entire Board of Directors of the Company or the Bank, as the case may be (not including the Executive), at a meeting of such Board
called and held for such purpose (after reasonable notice is provided to the Executive and the Executive is given an opportunity,
together with counsel, to be heard before such Board), finding that, in the good faith opinion of such Board, the Executive is
guilty of the conduct described in Section 10(a)(i) above, and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.

Section
11.           
Change of Control.


(a)               
A Change of Control (“Change of Control”) shall be deemed to have occurred

upon the happening of any of the following events:


(i)                
Approval by the stockholders of the Company of a transaction that would result in the reorganization, merger or consolidation
of the Company with one or more other persons, other than a transaction following which:


(A)            
At least 50.1% of the common stock or 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 1934 (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 50.1% of the outstanding common stock or equity ownership
interests in the Company; and


(B)             
At least 50.1% of the combined voting power 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 50.1% of the combined voting power of the securities
entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the Company; and


(C)             
No person, or persons acting in concert, beneficially own (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange
Act) 20% or more of the outstanding common stock or equity ownership interests in, or 20% or more of the combined voting power
of the securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of, the entity resulting from such transaction; and


(D)            
At least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the entity resulting from such transaction are individuals
who were described in Sections 11(a)(iv)(A) or (B) of this Agreement as of the date of execution of the initial definitive agreement
providing for such transaction (or, if earlier, as of the date on which the Board of Directors of the Company authorized such
transaction).


(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 20% or more of the outstanding securities or of the combined voting power 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, or approval by the stockholders of the Company of any transaction which would result in such an acquisition;


(iii)            
A complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company, or approval by the stockholders of the Company of a plan for such
liquidation or dissolution; or






    	-13-



    	 



    
(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 (or the Company’s successor) do not belong to any of the following groups:


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


(B)             
Individuals who first became members of the Board 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 stockholders of the Company to serve as a member of the Board of the Company, 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 individuals’ election or nomination did not result from an actual or threatened election contest or other actual or
threatened solicitation of proxies or consents (within the meaning of Rule 14a-1 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange
Act) other than by or on behalf of the Board of the Company; or


(v)              
Any event which would be described in Section 11(a)(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 a subsidiary of either of them, or by any employee benefit plan
maintained by any of them. For purposes of this Section 11(a), the term “person” shall include the meaning assigned
to it under section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act.


(b)              
In the event of a Change of Control, the Executive shall be entitled to the payments and benefits contemplated by Section
9(b)(i) and 9(b)(iii)-(v), such payments to be due and payable to the Executive by the Company and the Bank prior to or simultaneously
with the closing of the transaction or event constituting a Change of Control under this Section 11 (but subject to the final
paragraph of Section 9(b)).


(c)               
In the event of a Change of Control, the Executive shall also be entitled to the payments and benefits contemplated by
Section 9(b)(vi) in the event of his termination of employment with the Company or the Bank under any of the circumstances described
in Section 9(a) of this Agreement or under any of the following circumstances:






    	-14-



    	 



    
(i)               
Resignation, voluntary or otherwise, by the Executive at any time during the Employment Period following his demotion,
loss of title, office or significant authority or responsibility, or following any reduction in any element of his package of
compensation and benefits;


(ii)              
Resignation, voluntary or otherwise, by the Executive at any time during the Employment Period following any relocation
of his principal place of employment or any change in working conditions at such principal place of employment which the Executive,
in his reasonable discretion, determines to be embarrassing, derogatory or otherwise adverse;


(iii)            
Resignation, voluntary or otherwise, by the Executive at any time during the Employment Period following the failure of
any successor to the Company in the Change of Control to include the Executive in any compensation or benefit, program maintained
by it or covering any of its executive officers, unless the Executive is already covered by a substantially similar plan of the
Company or the Bank which is at least as favorable to him; or


(iv)            
Resignation, voluntary or otherwise, for any reason whatsoever following the effective date of the Change of Control.


Section
12.           
Tax Indemnification.


(a)               
This Section 12 shall apply in the event of (i) a Change of Control (as defined in Section 11 of this Agreement); or (ii)
a change “in the ownership or effective control” of the Company or the Bank or “in the ownership of a substantial
portion of the assets” of the Company or the Bank within the meaning of section 280G of the Code. If this Section 12 applies,
then, if for any taxable year the Executive shall be liable for the payment of an excise tax under section 4999 of the Code with
respect to any payment in the nature of Compensation made by the Company, the Bank or any direct or indirect subsidiary or affiliate
of the Company or the Bank to (or for the benefit of) the Executive, the Company or the Bank shall pay with respect to the Executive
an amount equal to X determined under the following formula:


	X
    =	E
    x P
	 	1
    – [(FI x (1 – SLI)) + SLI + E + M]
	Where	 
	 	 
	E =	the rate at which
    the excise tax is assessed under section 4999 of the Code;
	 	 
	P =	the amount with
    respect to which such excise tax is assessed, determined without regard to this Section 12;
	 	 
	FI =	the highest marginal
    rate of income tax applicable to the Executive under the Code for the taxable year in question;
	 	 
	SLI =	the sum of the highest
    marginal rates of income tax applicable to the Executive under all applicable state and local laws for the taxable year in
    question; and
	 	 
	M =	the highest marginal
    rate of Medicare tax applicable to the Executive under the Code for the taxable year in question.


 






    	-15-



    	 



    
With respect to any payment
in, the nature of Compensation that is made to (or for the benefit of) the Executive under the terms of this Agreement, or otherwise,
and on which an excise tax under section 4999 of the Code will be assessed, the payment determined under this Section 12(a) shall
be remitted to the Internal Revenue Service or other applicable state or local taxing authority on the earlier of (i) the date
the Company, the Bank or any direct or indirect subsidiary or affiliate of the Company or the Bank is required to withhold such
tax, or (ii) the date the tax is required to be paid by the Executive and shall in no event be paid later than the end of the
Executive’s taxable year next following the Executive’s taxable year in which the underlying excise tax under section
4999 of the Code (and any income or other related taxes or interest or penalties thereon) are remitted to the Internal Revenue
Service or any other applicable taxing authority or, in the case of amounts relating to a claim described in Section 12(c) that
does not result in the remittance of any federal, state, local and foreign income, excise, social security and other taxes, the
calendar year in which the claim is finally settled or otherwise resolved. The determination of the amount due hereunder shall
be made by Ernst & Young, or such other accounting firm as the parties may mutually agree upon (the “Accounting Firm”).
In the event that the Accounting Firm is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change
of Control, the parties shall appoint another nationally recognized accounting firm to make the determination required hereunder
(which accounting firm shall then be referred to as the Accounting Firm hereunder). All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm
shall be borne solely by the Company.


(b)              
Notwithstanding anything in this Section 12 to the contrary, in the event that the Executive’s liability for the
excise tax under section 4999 of the Code for a taxable year is subsequently determined to be different than the amount determined
by the formula (X + P) x E, where X, P and E have the meanings provided in Section 12(a), the Executive or the Company or Bank,
as the case may be, shall pay to the other party, at the time that the amount of such excise tax is finally determined, an appropriate
amount, plus interest, such that the payment made under Section 12(a), when increased by the amount of the payment made to the
Executive under this Section 12(b) by the Company or the Bank, or when reduced by the amount of the payment made to the Company
or Bank under this Section 12(b) by the Executive, equals the amount that should have properly been paid under Section 12(a).
The interest paid under this Section 12(b) shall be determined at the rate provided under section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code. To
confirm that the proper amount, if any, was paid under this Section 12, the Executive shall furnish to the Company and the Bank
a copy of each tax return which reflects a liability for an excise tax payment made by the Company or the Bank, at least 20 days
before the date on which such return is required to be filed with the Internal Revenue Service.


(c)               
The Executive shall notify the Company and the Bank in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful,
would require the payment by the Company of additional amounts hereunder. Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable
but no later than ten business days after the Executive is informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the Company and
the Bank of the nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. The Executive shall not pay such
claim prior to the expiration of the thirty day period following the date on which it gives such notice that any payment of taxes
with respect to such claim is due. If the Company or the Bank notifies the Executive in writing prior to the expiration of such
period that it desires to contest such claim, the Executive shall:






    	-16-



    	 



    
(i)               
Give the Company or the Bank any information reasonably requested by the Company or the Bank relating to such claim;


(ii)              
Take such action in connection with contesting such claim as the Company or the Bank shall reasonably request in writing
from time to time, including, without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably
selected by the Company or the Bank;


(iii)            
Cooperate with the Company or the Bank in good faith in order effectively to contest such claim; and


(iv)            
Permit the Company and the Bank to participate in any proceedings relating to such claim;


provided, however,
that the Company or the Bank shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including additional interest and penalties)
incurred in connection with such contest and shall indemnify and hold the Executive 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive shall control the conduct of any such proceeding and all decisions
relating to the settlement or other disposition thereof.


(d)              
The provisions of this Section 12 are designed to reflect the provisions of applicable federal, state and local tax laws
in effect on the date of this Agreement. If, after the date hereof, there shall be any change in any such laws, this Section 12
shall be modified in such manner as the Executive and the Company and the Bank may mutually agree upon if and to the extent necessary
to assure that the Executive is fully indemnified against the economic effects of the tax imposed under section 4999 of the Code
or any similar federal, state or local tax.


(e)               
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 12, the Company and/or the Bank may, in its sole discretion, withhold
and pay over to the Internal Revenue Service or any other applicable taxing authority, for the benefit of the Executive, all or
any portion of any payment pursuant to Section 12(a), and the Executive hereby consents to such withholding.






    	-17-



    	 



    
Section
13.           
Confidentiality. Unless he obtains the prior written consent of the Company and the Bank, the Executive shall keep confidential
and shall refrain from using for the benefit of himself, or any person or entity other than the Company or any entity which is
a subsidiary of the Company or of which the Company is a subsidiary, any material document or information obtained from the Company,
or from its parent or subsidiaries, in the course of his employment with any of them concerning their properties, operations or
business (unless such document or information is readily ascertainable from public or published information or trade sources or
has otherwise been made available to the public through no fault of his own) until the same ceases to be material (or becomes
so ascertainable or available); provided, however, that nothing in this Section 13 shall prevent the Executive,
with or without the Company’s and the Bank’s consent, from participating in or disclosing documents or information
as required by applicable law or in connection with any judicial or administrative investigation, inquiry or proceeding to the
extent that such participation or disclosure is required under applicable law.


Section
14.           
Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Executive, his 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. Failure of the Company and the
Bank to obtain from any successors its or their express written assumption of the Company’s and the Bank’s obligations
hereunder at least sixty (60) days in advance of the scheduled effective date of any such succession shall be deemed a material
breach of this Agreement.


Section
15.           
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

times.

Section
24.           
Equitable Remedies. Each of the parties acknowledges that the parties will be irreparably damaged (and damages at law would
be an inadequate remedy) if this Agreement is not specifically enforced. Therefore, in the event of a breach or threatened breach
by any party of any provision of this Agreement, then the other parties shall be entitled, in addition to all other rights or
remedies, (a) to an injunction restraining such breach, without being required to show any actual damage or to post an injunction

Section
27.           
Section 409A. This Agreement is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code or an exemption or
exclusion therefrom and, with respect to amounts that are subject to Section 409A of the Code, shall in all respects be administered
in accordance with Section 409A of the Code. Each payment under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment for purposes
of Section 409A of the Code. In no event may the Executive, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of any payment
to be made under this Agreement. All reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement that constitute deferred
compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section
409A of the Code, including, without limitation, that (i) in no event shall reimbursements by the Bank or the Company under this
Agreement be made later than the end of the calendar year next following the calendar year in which the applicable fees and expenses
were incurred, provided, that the Executive shall have submitted an invoice for such fees and expenses at least 10 days before
the end of the calendar year next following the calendar year in which such fees and expenses were incurred; (ii) the amount of
in-kind benefits that the Bank or the Company is obligated to pay or provide in any given calendar year shall not affect the in-kind
benefits that the Bank or the Company is obligated to pay or provide in any other calendar year; (iii) the Executive’s right
to have the Bank or the Company pay or provide such reimbursements and in-kind benefits may not be liquidated or exchanged for
any other benefit; and (iv) in no event shall the Bank’s or the Company’s obligations to make such reimbursements
or to provide such in-kind benefits apply later than the Executive’s remaining lifetime (or if longer, through the 50th
anniversary of the date hereof). Within the time period permitted by the applicable Treasury Regulations, the Company may, in
consultation with the Executive, modify the Agreement, in the least restrictive manner necessary and without any diminution in
the value of the payments to the Executive, in order to cause the provisions of the Agreement to comply with the requirements
of Section 409A of the Code, so as to avoid the imposition of taxes and penalties on the Executive pursuant to Section 409A of
the Code.


Section
28.           
Arbitration.
Subject to the parties’ rights to seek equitable remedies under Section 24, all claims for monetary damages and disputes
relating in any way to the performance, interpretation, validity or breach of this Agreement shall be referred to final and binding
arbitration, before a single arbitrator, under the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association in Palm
Beach County, Florida. The arbitrator shall be selected by the parties and if the parties are unable to reach agreement on selection
of the arbitrator within ten (10) days after the notice of arbitration is served, then the arbitrator will be selected by the
American Arbitration Association. All documents, materials and information in the possession of a party to this Agreement and
in any way relevant to the claims or disputes shall be made available to the other parties for review and copying not later than
60 days after the notice of arbitration is served. To the extent that a party would be required to make confidential information
available to any other, an agreement or an order shall be entered in the proceeding protecting the confidentiality of and limiting
access to such information before a party is required to produce such information. Information produced by a party shall be used
exclusively in the arbitration or litigation that may arise, and shall not otherwise be disclosed. In no event shall a party be
entitled to punitive damages in any arbitration or judicial proceeding and all parties hereby waive their rights to any punitive
damages. In the event an arbitration panel or a court concludes that the punitive damages waiver contained in the previous sentence
is unenforceable, then the parties agree that the court with subject matter jurisdiction over the confirmation of the award shall
have sole and exclusive jurisdiction to determine issues of entitlement and amount of punitive damages. The arbitrator shall NOT
have subject matter jurisdiction to decide any issues relating to the statute of limitations or to any request for injunctive
relief, and the parties hereby stipulate to stay the arbitration proceeding (without the need of a bond) until any such issues
in dispute are resolved. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the parties
and their respective administrators, personal representatives, legal representatives, heirs, successors and permitted assigns,
and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

or custody of such minor, incompetent person or incapable person. The Plan Administrator may require proof of incompetence, minority
or guardianship as it may deem appropriate prior to distribution of the benefit. Any distribution of a benefit shall be a distribution
for the account of the Executive and the Executive’s Beneficiary, as the case may be, and shall be a complete discharge
of any liability under the Agreement for such distribution amount.

the Bank and the Executive, in which case the Executive shall receive the Early Termination Benefit, determined as of the date

Upon the Company’s and the Bank’s dissolution or with the approval of a bankruptcy court, provided that the

Arrangements”), provided that (i) the termination and liquidation does not occur proximate to a downturn in the financial
health of the Company and the Bank, (ii) all termination distributions are made no earlier than twelve (12) months and no
later than twenty-four (24) months following such termination, and (iii) the Company and the Bank do not adopt any new arrangement

Section
9.17        Arbitration.
Subject to the parties’ right to seek equitable remedies under Section 9.18, all claims for monetary damages and disputes
relating in any way to the performance, interpretation, validity, or breach of this Agreement shall be referred to final and binding
arbitration, before a single arbitrator, under the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association in Palm
Beach County, Florida. The arbitrator shall be selected by the parties and if the parties are unable to reach agreement on selection
of the arbitrator within ten (10) days after the notice of arbitration is served, then the arbitrator will be selected by the
American Arbitration Association. All documents, materials, and information in the possession of a party to this Agreement and
in any way relevant to the claims or disputes shall be made available to the other parties for review and copying not later than
60 days after the notice of arbitration is served. To the extent that a party would be required to make confidential information
available to any other, an agreement or an order shall be entered in the proceeding protecting the confidentiality of and limiting
access to such information before a party is required to produce such information. Information produced by a party shall be used
exclusively in the arbitration or litigation that may arise, and shall not otherwise be disclosed. In no event shall a party be
entitled to punitive damages in any arbitration or judicial proceeding and all parties hereby waive their rights to any punitive
damages. In the event an arbitration panel or a court concludes that the punitive damages waiver contained in the previous sentence
is unenforceable, then the parties agree that the court with subject matter jurisdiction over the confirmation of the award shall
have sole and exclusive jurisdiction to determine issues of entitlement and amount of punitive damages. The arbitrator shall NOT
have subject matter jurisdiction to decide any issues relating to the statute of limitations or to any request for injunctive
relief, and the parties hereby stipulate to stay the arbitration proceeding (without the need of a bond) until any such issues
in dispute are resolved. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the parties
and their respective administrators, personal representatives, legal representatives, heirs, successors and permitted assigns,
and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties expressly acknowledge and agree that the statute of limitations
set forth in Chapter 95 of the Florida Statutes shall apply to any action, arbitration or proceeding brought to enforce the terms
or conditions of this Agreement.


Section
9.18        Equitable Remedies.
Each of the parties acknowledges that the parties will be irreparably damaged (and damages at law would be an inadequate remedy)
if this Agreement is not specifically enforced. Therefore, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by any party of any provision
of this Agreement, then the other parties shall be entitled, in addition to all other rights or remedies, (a) to an injunction
restraining such breach, without being required to show any actual damage or to post an injunction or other bond, or (b) to a
decree for specific performance of the provisions of this Agreement, or both.


Section
9.19        Enforcement
Costs. If any civil action, arbitration or other legal proceeding is brought for the enforcement of this Agreement, or
because of an alleged dispute, breach, default or misrepresentation in connection with any provision of this Agreement, the
successful or prevailing party or parties shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, sales
and use taxes and all expenses even if not taxable as court costs (including, without limitation, all such fees, taxes, costs
and expenses incident to arbitration, appellate, bankruptcy and post-judgment proceedings), incurred in that proceeding, in
addition to any other relief to which such party or parties may be entitled. Attorneys’ fees shall include, without
limitation, paralegal fees, investigative fees, administrative costs, sales and use taxes and all other charges billed by the
attorney to the prevailing party (including any fees and costs associated with collecting such amounts).

Equity
Award Program for Founding FUBC NEOs


	Annual equity award opportunity:



	a.	Each founding NEO will have an annual equity award “opportunity”
    equivalent to 50% of highest base compensation among the founding NEOs in the form of stock grants with 10 year vesting, awarded
    at fair market value as of the close of business on the last business day of February in the calendar year immediately following
    the fiscal year in question (provided, however, that if the Company's Form 10-K is not yet filed with the SEC as of such last
    business day, then the valuation date shall be the seventh (7th) day after the date on which such Form 10-K is
    filed by the Company with the SEC), conditional upon the attainment of certain performance measures defined below


 


	Corporate Performance Measures (100%):



	Financial Performance (75%)




	a.	Pre-tax Net Income Budget achievement (50% weight of the 75%)
	 	 
	b.	NPA/Asset ratio to Benchmark Group mean (uncovered assets) (20% weight of the 75%) (Goal
    is 100% or less of Benchmark Group average for the four quarters ended Q3) 
	 	 
	c.	NIM compared to Benchmark Group mean (20% weight of the 75%) (Goal is 100% or more of Benchmark
    Group average ratio at September 30)
	 	 
	d.	Efficiency ratio to Benchmark Group mean (10% weight of the 75%) (Goal is 100% or less of
    Benchmark Group average ratio for the four quarters ended Q3)
	 	 



	Operational Performance (25%)





	a.	Annual Bank Safety and Soundness Examination rating for calendar year
    (75% weight of the 25%) (Goal will be established each year by the Compensation Committee)
	 	 
	b.	Specialty area examination results FDIC Loss Share, BSA, CRA, IT (25% weight of the 25%)
    (Goal will be established each year by the Compensation Committee)


 


	Measurement Method:



The
NEO’s score is determined by calculating the percent achievement for each of the Corporate Performance and Individual Performance
factors.


	Example:The FUBC CEO and 1st
United Bank President and CEO earned $350,000 as a base salary and therefore had a $175,000 annual equity award opportunity.







    	 



    	 



    

	Financial Performance – 75% weight (or $131,250 in stock grant value opportunity)




	a.	Pre-tax Net Income Budget achievement – 50% weight (Example: 1st
    United Bancorp achieves 85% of fiscal year budget goal x 50% of opportunity =$55,781). The Company’s consolidated
    net income before taxes for each such fiscal year shall be defined as excluding extraordinary items as defined in APB #30
    (or any successor bulletin) and excluding restructuring charges and other integration and reorganization expenses and charges
    relating to mergers, acquisitions or transactions of similar effect for financial reporting purposes.  If pre-tax net
    income for a given fiscal year is less than 50% of budget, the executives will earn no equity award opportunity for this budget
    achievement component.
	 	 
	b.	NPA/Asset ratio to Benchmark Group – 20% weight (Goal is 100% or less of Benchmark
    Group average for the four quarters ended Q3) Example: 1st United Bancorp achieves NPA/Asset ratio for four quarters
    ended Q3 that meets goal therefore 20% of opportunity =$26,250).
	 	 
	c.	NIM compared to Benchmark Group – 20% weight (Goal is 100% or more of Benchmark Group
    average ratio at September 30) Example: 1st United Bancorp achieves NIM goal therefore 20% of opportunity =$26,250).
	 	 
	d.	Efficiency ratio to Benchmark Group – 10% weight (Goal is 100% or less of Benchmark
    Group average ratio for the four quarters ended Q3). Example: 1st United Bancorp achieves 110% of Benchmark average
    ratio for the four quarters ended Q3 therefore scores 90% of goal x 10% of opportunity =$11,813).


 


	Operational Performance (25% or $43,750 in stock grant value)




	a.	Annual Bank Safety and Soundness Examination rating - 75% weight. Example:
    If the goal in a particular year is a composite 2 rating, and 1st United Bank achieves a composite 3, then $0;
    if a 2 = $32,813).
	 	 
	b.	Specialty area examination results (25% weight) for any and all of the following specialty
    examinations:  FDIC Loss Share, BSA, CRA, IT (e.g., the score would be an equal weight to each of the specialty compliance
    exam scores (if all three are examined and goal achieved on each = $10,938).  Note:  If no specialty exams occur
    then 100% of the Operational Performance measures will rest on the outcome of the full annual safety and soundness examination).
