      EXECUTIVE
        SUPPLEMENTAL
        COMPENSATION 

      AGREEMENT
        

      

      Effective
        this 29th
        day of
        December 2006, this SALARY CONTINUATION AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is adopted by
        and between TEMECULA
        VALLEY BANK
        (“Bank”), a bank located in Temecula Valley, California, and organized under the
        laws of the State of California, and JIM ANDREWS (“Executive”), a member of a
        select group of management and highly compensated employees of the Bank.
        The
        purpose of this Agreement is to further the growth and development of the
        Bank
        by providing Executive with supplemental retirement income, and thereby
        encourage Executive’s productive efforts on behalf of the Bank and the Bank’s
        shareholders, and to align the interests of the Executive and those
        shareholders. 

      

      It
        is
        intended that the Agreement be "unfunded" for purposes of the Employee
        Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA") and not be
        construed to provide income to the participant or beneficiary under the Internal
        Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), particularly Section 409A
        of the
        Code and guidance or regulations issued thereunder, prior to actual receipt
        of
        benefits.

      

      Article
        1

      Definitions
        and Construction

      

      Where
        the
        following words and phrases appear in the Agreement, they shall have the
        respective meanings set forth below, unless their context clearly indicates
        to
        the contrary:

      

      	1.1    
              	
              “Accrued
                Liability Balance” shall mean the amount accrued by the Company to fund
                the future benefit expense associated with this Agreement, as of
                the end
                of the month preceding the Executive’s Separation from Service. The
                Company shall account for this benefit using Generally Accepted Accounting
                Principles, regulatory accounting guidance of the Company’s primary
                federal regulator, and other applicable accounting guidance, including
                APB
                12 and FAS 106. Accordingly, the Company shall establish a liability
                retirement account for the Executive into which appropriate accruals
                shall
                be made using a discount that is reasonable, which is consistent
                with
                guidance issued by the Company’s primary federal regulator, and which may
                be adjusted thereafter at the Board’s discretion to comply with regulatory
                guidance. This Agreement is intended to be a “non-account balance” plan,
                as that term is used under the Code.

            

       

      

      	1.2

                in Control” shall mean: a change in ownership or control of the Bank as
                defined in Treasury Regulation §1.409A-3(g)(5) or any subsequently
                applicable Treasury Regulation.

            

      

      	1.4  
                	
              “Code”
                shall mean the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
                amended.

                shall mean Executive (i) is unable to engage in any substantial gainful
                activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental
                impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected
                to
                last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, or (ii)
                is, by

                which
                can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for
                a
                continuous period of not less than 12 months, receiving income replacement
                benefits for a period of not less than 3 months under an accident
                and
                health plan covering employees of the Bank. Medical determination
                of
                Disability may be made by either the Social Security Administration
                or by
                the provider of an accident or health plan covering employees of
                the Bank.
                Upon the request of the Plan Administrator, the Executive must submit
                proof to the Plan Administrator of Social Security Administration’s or the
                provider’s determination.

                terminated, voluntarily or involuntarily, prior to Normal Retirement
                Age
                and such termination is not due to death, Termination for Cause,
                Disability, or Separation from Service following a Change in
                Control.

            

      

      	1.7  
                	
              “Effective

              “Plan
                Administrator” shall mean the plan administrator described in Article
                6.

              “Plan
                Year” shall mean each twelve-month period commencing on January 1 and

                31.

            

      

      	1.11
                	
              “Separation
                from Service” shall mean that the Executive has experienced a Termination
                of Employment from the Bank. Where the Executive continues to perform
                services for the Bank following a Termination of Employment, however,
                and
                the facts and circumstances indicate that such services are intended
                by
                the Bank and the Executive to be more than “insignificant” services, a
                Separation from Service will not be deemed to have occurred and any
                amounts deferred under this Agreement may not be paid or made available
                to
                the Executive. The determination of whether such services are considered
                “insignificant” will be based upon all facts and circumstances relating to
                the termination and upon any applicable rules and regulations issued
                under
                Section 409A of the Code. Military leave, sick leave, or other bona
                fide
                leaves of absence are not generally considered terminations of employment.
                

            

      

      	1.12 
               	
              “Termination
                for Cause” has that meaning set forth in Article
                5.

            

      

      	1.13
                	
              “Termination
                of Employment” shall mean that Executive’s employment with the Bank has
                terminated.

                  The claimant initiates a claim by submitting to the Plan Administrator
                  a
                  written claim for the benefits.

                  The Plan Administrator shall respond to such claimant within 90
                  days after
                  receiving the claim. If the Plan Administrator determines that
                  special
                  circumstances require additional time for processing the claim,
                  the Plan
                  Administrator can extend the response period by an additional 90
                  days by
                  notifying the claimant in writing, prior to the end of the initial
                  90-day
                  period, that an additional period is required. The notice of extension
                  must set forth the special circumstances and the date by which
                  the Plan
                  Administrator expects to render its
                  decision.

                  Procedure.
                  If the Plan Administrator denies part or all of the claim, the
                  claimant
                  shall have the opportunity for a full and fair review by the Plan
                  Administrator of the denial, as

                  To initiate the review, the claimant, within 60 days after receiving
                  the
                  Plan Administrator’s notice of denial, must file with the Plan
                  Administrator a written request for
                  review.

                  The claimant shall then have the opportunity to submit written
                  comments,
                  documents, records and other information relating to the claim.
                  The Plan
                  Administrator shall also provide the claimant, upon request and
                  free of
                  charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records
                  and
                  other information relevant (as defined in applicable ERISA regulations)

                Considerations
                  on Review.
                  In considering the review, the Plan Administrator shall take into
                  account
                  all materials and information the claimant submits relating to
                  the claim,
                  without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered
                  in
                  the initial benefit determination.

                  within 60
                  days after receiving the request for review. If the Plan Administrator
                  determines that special circumstances require additional time for
                  processing the claim, the Plan Administrator can extend the response
                  period by an additional 60 days by notifying the claimant in writing,
                  prior to the end of the initial 60-day period, that an additional
                  period
                  is required. The notice of extension must set forth the special
                  circumstances and the date by which the Plan Administrator expects
                  to
                  render its decision.

                  shall set forth:

                  signed
                  by the Bank and the Executive. Provided, however, if the Board
                  determines
                  in good faith that the Executive is no longer a member of a select
                  group
                  of management or highly compensated employees, as that phrase applies
                  to

                  the Bank
                  may terminate this Agreement. Additionally, the Bank may also amend
                  this
                  Agreement to conform to written directives to the Bank from its
                  banking

                  under

                  will

                  Agreement.

                  The Executive is a general unsecured creditor of the Bank for the
                  distribution of benefits under this Agreement. The benefits represent
                  the
                  mere promise by the Bank to distribute such benefits. The rights
                  to
                  benefits are not subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation,
                  sale,
                  transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment, or garnishment
                  by
                  creditors. Any insurance on the Executive's life or other informal
                  funding
                  asset is a general asset of the Bank to which the Executive has
                  no
                  preferred or secured claim.

                Alternative
                  Action.
                  In the event it shall become impossible for the Bank or the Plan
                  Administrator to perform any act required by this Agreement, the
                  Bank or
                  Plan Administrator may in its discretion perform such alternative
                  act as
                  most nearly carries out the intent and purpose of this Agreement
                  and is in
                  the best interests of the Bank.
