to be reported in response to Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A of Regulation 14A
promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange
Act"), or any successor thereto, whether or not any security of the Corporation
is registered under the Exchange Act; provided that, without limitation, such a
change in control shall be deemed to have occurred if (i) any "person" (as such

disability benefits under the Federal Social Security System.

        (g) GOOD REASON. Termination by the Executive of the Executive's
employment for "Good Reason" shall mean termination by the Executive based on:

               (i) Without the Executive's express written consent, the
        assignment by the Employers to the Executive of any duties which are
        materially inconsistent with the Executive's positions, duties,
        responsibilities and status with the Employers immediately prior to a
        Change in Control of the Corporation, or a material change in the
        Executive's reporting responsibilities, titles or offices as an employee

        thereafter or a reduction in the package of fringe benefits provided to
        the Executive;

               (iii) Any purported termination of the Executive's employment for
        Cause, Disability of Retirement which is not effected pursuant to a
        Notice of Termination satisfying the requirements of paragraph (i)
        below; or

               (iv) The failure by the Savings Bank to obtain the assumption of
        and agreement to perform this Agreement by any successor as contemplated
        in Section 6 hereof.

        (h) IRS. IRS shall mean the Internal Revenue Service.

        (i) NOTICE OF TERMINATION. Any purported termination of the Executive's

termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, (ii) sets forth in
reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for
termination of Executive's employment under the provision so indicated, (iii)
specifies a Date of Termination, which shall be not less than thirty (30) nor

the case of the Savings Bank's termination of Executive's employment for Cause,

        (j) RETIREMENT. Termination by the Savings Bank of the Executive's
employment based on "Retirement" shall mean voluntary termination by the
Executive in accordance with the Employers' retirement policies, including early
retirement, generally applicable to their salaried employees.

        2. BENEFITS UPON TERMINATION. If the Executive's employment by the
Savings Bank shall be terminated subsequent to a Change in Control of the
Corporation by (i) the Savings Bank other than for Cause, Retirement, or as a
result of the Executive's death, or (ii) the Executive for Good Reason, then the
Employers shall, subject to the provisions of Section 3 hereof, if applicable:

        (a) pay to the Executive, in twenty-four (24) equal monthly installments
beginning with the first business day of the month following the Date of
Termination, a cash amount equal to two (2) times the Executive's Annual
Compensation; and

        (b) maintain and provide for a period ending at the earlier of (i) two
(2) years after the Date of Termination or (ii) the date of the Executive's
full-time employment by another employer (provided that the Executive is
entitled under the terms of such employment to benefits substantially similar to
those described in this subparagraph (b)), at no cost to the Executive, the
Executive's continued participation in all group insurance, life insurance,
health and accident, disability and other employee benefit plans, programs and
arrangements in which the Executive was entitled to


                                       3
<PAGE>   4
participate immediately prior to the Date of Termination (other than retirement
plans or stock compensation plans of the Employers), provided that in the event
that the Executive's participation in any plan, program or arrangement as
provided in this subparagraph (b) is barred, or during such period any such
plan, program or arrangement is discontinued or the benefits thereunder are
materially reduced, the Employers arrange to provide the Executive with benefits
substantially similar to those which the Executive was entitled to receive under
such plans, programs and arrangements immediately prior to the Date of
Termination.

        3. LIMITATION OF BENEFITS UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES. If the payments
and benefits pursuant to Section 2 hereof, either alone or together with other
payments and benefits which Executive has the right to receive from the Savings
Bank would constitute a "parachute payment" under Section 28OG of the Code, the
payments and benefits payable by the Savings Bank pursuant to Section 2 hereof
shall be reduced, in the manner determined by the Executive, by the amount, if
any, which is the minimum necessary to result in no portion of the payments and
benefits under Section 2 being non-deductible to the Savings Bank pursuant to
Section 28OG of the Code and subject to the excise tax imposed under Section
4999 of the Code. The parties hereto agree that the payments and benefits
payable pursuant to this Agreement to the Executive upon termination shall be
limited to three times the Executive's Average Annual Compensation in accordance
with the provisions of OTS Regulatory Bulletin 27a. The determination of any
reduction in the payments and benefits to be made pursuant to Section 2 shall be
based upon the opinion of independent tax counsel selected by the Savings Bank's
independent public accountants and paid for by the Savings Bank. Such counsel
shall be reasonably acceptable to the Savings Bank and the Executive; shall
promptly prepare the foregoing opinion, but in no event later than thirty (30)
days from the Date of Termination; and may use such actuaries as such counsel
deems necessary or advisable for the purpose. In the event that the Savings Bank
and/or the Executive do not agree with the opinion of such counsel, (i) the
Savings Bank shall pay to the Executive the maximum amount of payments and
benefits pursuant to Section 2, as selected by the Executive, which such opinion
indicates that there is a high probability do not result in any of such payments
and benefits being non-deductible to the Savings Bank and subject to the
imposition of the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code and (ii) the
Savings Bank may request, and Executive shall have the right to demand that the
Savings Bank requests, a ruling from the IRS as to whether the disputed payments
and benefits pursuant to Section 2 hereof have such consequences. Any such
request for a ruling from the IRS shall be promptly prepared and filed by the
Savings Bank, but in no event later than thirty (30) days from the date of the
opinion of counsel referred to above, and shall be subject to Executive's
approval prior to filing, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Savings
Bank and Executive agree to be bound by any ruling received from the IRS and to
make appropriate payments to each other to reflect any such rulings, together
with interest at the applicable federal rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2)
of the Code. Nothing contained herein shall result in a reduction of any
payments or benefits to which the Executive may be entitled upon termination of
employment other than pursuant to Section 2 hereof, or a reduction in the
payments and benefits specified in Section 2 below zero.

        4.      MITIGATION; EXCLUSIVITY OF BENEFITS.


                                       4
<PAGE>   5
        (a) The Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any
benefits hereunder by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the
amount of any such benefits be reduced by any compensation earned by the
Executive as a result of employment by another employer after the Date of
Termination or otherwise.

        (b) The specific arrangements referred to herein are not intended to
exclude any other benefits which may be available to the Executive upon a
termination of employment with the Employers pursuant to employee benefit plans
of the Employers or otherwise.

        5. WITHHOLDING. All payments required to be made by the Savings Bank
hereunder to the Executive shall be subject to the withholding of such amounts,
if any, relating to tax and other payroll deductions as the Savings Bank may
reasonably determine should be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or
regulation.

        6. ASSIGNABILITY. The Savings Bank may assign this Agreement and its
rights and obligations hereunder in whole, but not in part, to any corporation,
bank or other entity with or into which the Savings Bank may hereafter merge or
consolidate or to which the Savings Bank may transfer all or substantially all
of its assets, if in any such case said corporation, bank or other entity shall
by operation of law or expressly in writing assume all obligations of the
Savings Bank hereunder as fully as if it had been originally made a party
hereto, but may not otherwise assign this Agreement or its rights hereunder. The
Executive may not assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations
hereunder.

        7. NOTICE. For the purposes of this Agreement, notices and all other
communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be
deemed to have been duly given when delivered or mailed by certified or

        8. AMENDMENT; WAIVER. No provisions of this Agreement may be modified,
waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to
in writing signed by the Executive and such officer or officers as may be
specifically designated by the Board of Directors of the Savings Bank to sign on
its behalf. No waiver by any party hereto at any time of any breach by any other
party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this
Agreement to


                                       5
<PAGE>   6
be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or
dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent

Executive, and the Savings Bank may terminate the Executive's employment at any
time, subject to providing any payments specified herein in accordance with the
terms hereof.

        (b) Nothing contained herein shall create or require the Savings Bank to
create a trust of any kind to fund any benefits which may be payable hereunder,
and to the extent that the Executive acquires a right to receive benefits from
the Savings Bank hereunder, such right shall be no greater than the right of any
unsecured general creditor of the Savings Bank.

        11. TERM OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall terminate two (2) years
after the date first above written; provided that on or prior to the first
anniversary of the date first above written and each anniversary thereafter, the
Board of Directors of the Savings Bank shall consider (with appropriate
corporate documentation thereof, and after taking into account all relevant
factors, including Executive's performance as an employee) renewal of the term
of this Agreement for an additional one (1) year, and the term of this Agreement
shall be so extended unless the Board of Directors of the Savings Bank do not
approve such renewal and provide written notice to the Executive, or the
Executive gives written notice to the Savings Bank, thirty (30) days prior to
the date of any such anniversary, of such party's or parties' election not to
extend the term beyond its then scheduled expiration date; and provided further
that, notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, this Agreement shall be
automatically extended for an additional one (1) year upon a Change in Control
of the Corporation.

        12. HEADINGS. The section headings contained in this Agreement are for

provisions of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.

counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which
