       8.1.  Participant's Rights Unsecured. To fund its obligations under the
             ------------------------------
Plan, the Corporation and the Bank may elect to form a trust, or to utilize a
pre-existing trust, to purchase and hold the alternative forms of assets which
are permitted under the ESOP, including shares of Corporation Common Stock,
subject to compliance with all applicable securities laws. If the Corporation
and the Bank elect to use a trust to fund their obligations under the Plan, a
Participant shall have no right to demand the transfer to him of stock or other
assets from the Corporation and the Bank, or from such a trust formed or
utilized by the Corporation and the Bank. Any assets held in a trust, including
shares of Corporation Common Stock, may be distributed to a Participant in
payment of part or all of the Corporation's and the Bank's obligations under the
Plan. The right of a Participant or his designated beneficiary to receive a
distribution hereunder shall be an unsecured claim against the general assets of
the Corporation and the Bank, and neither the Participant nor a designated
beneficiary shall have any rights in or against any specific assets of the
Corporation and the Bank.

       8.2.  General Conditions. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein,
             ------------------
all terms and conditions of the ESOP applicable to an ESOP Allocation will also
be applicable to an allocation of Stock Units pursuant to this Plan. Nothing in
this Plan shall operate or be construed in any way to modify, amend or affect
the terms and provisions of the ESOP.

       8.3.  No Guarantee of Benefits. Nothing contained in the Plan shall
             ------------------------
constitute a guarantee by the Corporation and the Bank or any other person or
entity that the assets of the Corporation and the Bank will be sufficient to pay
any benefit hereunder.

       8.4.  No Enlargement of Employee Rights. No Participant shall have any
             ---------------------------------
right to receive a distribution of contributions made under the Plan except in
accordance with the terms of the Plan. Establishment of the Plan shall not be
construed to give any Participant the right to be retained in the service of the
Corporation and the Bank.

       8.5.  Spendthrift Provision. No interest of any person or entity in, or
             ---------------------
right to receive a distribution under, the Plan shall be subject in any manner
to sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, attachment, garnishment, or other
alienation or encumbrance of any kind; nor may such interest or right to receive
a distribution be taken, either voluntarily or involuntarily for the
satisfaction of the debts of, or other obligations or claims against, such
person or entity, including claims for alimony, support, separate maintenance
and claims in bankruptcy proceedings.

             --------------
the laws of the State of Nebraska to the extent such laws are not superseded by
federal law.

       8.7.  Incapacity of Recipient. If any person entitled to a distribution
             -----------------------
under the Plan is deemed by the Corporation and the Bank to be incapable of
personally receiving and giving a valid receipt for such payment, then, unless
and until claim therefor shall have been made by a duly appointed guardian or
other legal representative of such person, the Corporation and the Bank may
provide for such payment or any part thereof to be made to any other person or
institution then contributing toward or providing for the care and maintenance
of such person. Any such payment shall be a payment for the account of such
person and a complete discharge of any liability of the Corporation and the Bank
and the Plan therefor.

       8.8.  Corporate Successors. The Plan shall not be automatically
             --------------------
terminated by a transfer or sale of assets of the Corporation and the Bank or by
the merger or consolidation of the Corporation and the Bank into or with any
other corporation or other entity, but the Plan shall be continued after such
sale, merger or consolidation only if and to the extent that the transferee,
purchaser or successor entity agrees to continue the Plan. In the event that the
Plan is not continued by the transferee, purchaser or successor entity, then the
Plan shall terminate subject to the provisions of Section 7.2.

       8.9.  Unclaimed Benefit. Each Participant shall keep the Corporation and
             -----------------
the Bank informed of his current address and the current address of his
designated beneficiary. The Corporation and the Bank shall not be obligated to
search for the whereabouts of any person. If the location of a Participant is
not made known to the Corporation and the Bank within three (3) years after the
date on which payment of the Participant's account may first be made, payment
may be made as though the Participant had died at the end of the three-year
period. If, within one additional year after such three-year period has elapsed,
or, within three years after the actual death of a Participant, the Corporation
and the Bank is unable to locate any designated beneficiary of the Participant,
then the Corporation and the Bank shall have no further obligation to pay any
benefit hereunder to such Participant or designated beneficiary and such benefit
shall be irrevocably forfeited.

       8.10. Limitations on Liability. Notwithstanding any of the preceding
             ------------------------
provisions of the Plan, neither the Corporation and the Bank nor any individual
acting as employee or agent of the Corporation and the Bank shall be liable to
any Participant, former Participant or other person for any claim, loss,
liability or expense incurred in connection with the Plan.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan of TierOne Corporation.

     5.2 Distribution. The vested portion of amounts credited to a Participant's
         ------------
account shall be distributed to a Participant at the same time, and (except as
provided in Section 8.1) in the same manner, as benefits shall be distributed
from the 401(k) Plan pursuant to Article VI of the 401(k) Plan.

     If a Participant should die before distribution of the vested portion of
his account pursuant to the Plan has been made to him, any remaining vested
amounts shall be distributed to his beneficiary in the method designated by the
Participant in a writing delivered to the Bank prior to his death. If a
Participant has not designated a beneficiary, or method of distribution, or if
no designated beneficiary is living on the date of distribution, such vested
amounts shall be distributed to those persons entitled to receive distributions
of the Participant's account under the 401(k) Plan and in the same method as
distribution is made under the 401(k) Plan.

                                   ARTICLE VI

in the manner and at the time described in Section 5.2 of the Plan. No
additional credits of 401(k) Allocations shall be made to the account of a
Participant and no additional Periods of Service (within the meaning of Section
5.1) shall be credited after termination of the Plan, but the Bank shall
continue to credit gains and losses pursuant to Article IV until the vested
balance of his account has been fully distributed to the Participant or his
beneficiary.

                               GENERAL PROVISIONS

     8.1. Participant's Rights Unsecured. To fund its obligations under the
          ------------------------------
Plan, the Bank may elect to form a trust, or to utilize a pre-existing trust, to
purchase and hold the alternative forms of assets which are permitted under the
401(k) Plan, including shares of Corporation Common Stock, subject to compliance
with all applicable securities laws. If the Bank elects to use a trust to fund
its obligations under the Plan, a Participant shall have no right to demand the
transfer to him of stock or other assets from the Bank, or from such a trust
formed or utilized by the Bank. Any assets held in a trust, including shares of
Corporation Common Stock, may be distributed to a Participant in payment of part
or all of the Bank's obligations under the Plan. The right of a Participant or
his designated beneficiary to receive a distribution hereunder shall be an
unsecured claim against the general assets of the Bank, and neither the
Participant nor a designated beneficiary shall have any rights in or against any
specific assets of the Bank.

     8.2. General Conditions. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all
          ------------------
terms and conditions of the 401(k) Plan applicable to a 401(k) Allocation will
also be applicable to a Supplemental Savings Deferred Allocation pursuant to
this Plan. Nothing in this Plan shall operate or be construed in any way to
modify, amend or affect the terms and provisions of the 401(k) Plan.

     8.3. No Guarantee of Benefits. Nothing contained in the Plan shall
          ------------------------
constitute a guarantee by the Bank or any other person or entity that the assets
of the Bank will be sufficient to pay any benefit hereunder.

     8.4. No Enlargement of Employee Rights. No Participant shall have any right
          ---------------------------------
to receive a distribution of contributions made under the Plan except in
accordance with the terms of the Plan. Establishment of the Plan shall not be
construed to give any Participant the right to be retained in the service of the
Bank.

     8.5. Spendthrift Provision. No interest of any person or entity in, or
          ---------------------
right to receive a distribution under, the Plan shall be subject in any manner
to sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, attachment, garnishment, or other
alienation or encumbrance of any kind; nor may such interest or right to receive
a distribution be taken, either voluntarily or involuntarily for the
satisfaction of the debts of, or other obligations or claims against, such
person or entity, including claims for alimony, support, separate maintenance
and claims in bankruptcy proceedings.

                                       6

     8.6.  Applicable Law. The Plan shall be construed and administered under
           --------------
the laws of the State of Nebraska to the extent such laws are not superseded by
federal law.

     8.7.  Incapacity of Recipient. If any person entitled to a distribution
           -----------------------
under the Plan is deemed by the Bank to be incapable of personally receiving and
giving a valid receipt for such payment, then, unless and until claim therefor
shall have been made by a duly appointed guardian or other legal representative
of such person, the Bank may provide for such payment or any part thereof to be
made to any other person or institution then contributing toward or providing
for the care and maintenance of such person. Any such payment shall be a payment
for the account of such person and a complete discharge of any liability of the
Bank and the Plan therefor.

     8.8.  Corporate Successors. The Plan shall not be automatically terminated
           --------------------
by a transfer or sale of assets of the Bank or by the merger or consolidation of
the Bank into or with any other corporation or other entity, but the Plan shall
be continued after such sale, merger or consolidation only if and to the extent
that the transferee, purchaser or successor entity agrees to continue the Plan.
In the event that the Plan is not continued by the transferee, purchaser or
successor entity, then the Plan shall terminate subject to the provisions of
Section 7.2. Notwithstanding the above, the Plan shall terminate at the same
time as the 401(k) Plan is terminated and all benefits hereunder shall become
payable upon such termination.

     8.9.  Unclaimed Benefit. Each Participant shall keep the Bank informed of
           -----------------
his current address and the current address of his designated beneficiary. The
Bank shall not be obligated to search for the whereabouts of any person. If the
location of a Participant is not made known to the Bank within three (3) years
after the date on which payment of the Participant's account may first be made,
payment may be made as though the Participant had died at the end of the
three-year period. If, within one additional year after such three-year period
has elapsed, or, within three years after the actual death of a Participant, the
Bank is unable to locate any designated beneficiary of the Participant, then the
Bank shall have no further obligation to pay any benefit hereunder to such
Participant or designated beneficiary and such benefit shall be irrevocably
forfeited.

     8.10. Limitations on Liability. Notwithstanding any of the preceding
           ------------------------
provisions of the Plan, neither the Bank nor any individual acting as employee
or agent of the Bank shall be liable to any Participant, former Participant or
other person for any claim, loss, liability or expense incurred in connection
with the Plan.
