2012 Senior Management Bonus Plan

 

The following bonus plan is established for participating senior management employees effective as of January 1, 2012.

 

The threshold to earn a bonus based on 2012 performance is:

 

(l)                                     the Bank having a satisfactory CAMEL rating;

 

(2)                                 the Bank having operating income of at least $4.8 million (after accounting for any bonus under this plan); and

 

(3)                                 First Internet Bancorp declaring in 2012 and paying not later than January 31, 2013 a dividend to its shareholders of at least $0.25 per share (which is equal to a 1.66% return using an average share price of $15.00); .

 

If the threshold is met in 2012 and if the Bank achieves a return on average assets (“ROAA”) greater than 0.65%, then each participating senior management employee  shall be entitled to receive a bonus equal to a percentage of his or her 2012 base salary in accordance with the following table:

 

	
ROAA
    	
 
    	
Bonus as a % of 2012 base salary
    	
 
    
	
Less than 0.65
    	
 
    	
-0-
    	
 
    
	
Equal to or greater than 0.650 but less than 0.750
    	
 
    	
10%
    	
 
    
	
Equal to or greater than 0.750 but less than 0.850
    	
 
    	
25%
    	
 
    
	
0.850 or greater
    	
 
    	
50%
    	
 
    

 

The bonus shall be computed as soon as practicable after December 31, 2012 and paid after completion of the 2012 audited financial statement of the Bank.

 

In the event the ROAA for 2012 is 0.850 or greater and the operating income is over $6 million (after accounting for any bonus under this plan), then (i) one-half of the bonus shall be paid in immediately available funds and (ii) the other one-half shall be paid in a combination of such funds (in an amount sufficient to cover the Bank’s withholding obligations) and the balance shall be paid in shares of the Bank’s holding company. The number of shares to be paid/issued to each person who participates in this plan shall be determined by using the value of the shares at January 1, 2012 (using the same valuation process that was used to determine the number of shares to be issued to the members of the Board of Directors). No fractional shares shall be issued; rather a payment in immediately available funds shall be made equal to the value of any fractional share. .

 

Any shares issued pursuant to this plan may be sold or transferred by an employee upon compliance with the holding company’s Statement of Trading Policy as in effect at the time of the proposed sale or transfer. A participant who acquires shares pursuant to this plan and who is no longer employed by the Bank or the holding company or any affiliate of either may sell or transfer such shares upon compliance with applicable securities laws.

 

If, after the payment of a bonus under this plan, the Bank restates its financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2012, then the Board of Directors shall determine the amount of bonus that should have been paid based on the restated financial statements (the “Restated Bonus Amount”). If the Restated Bonus Amount is greater than the bonus that was paid, then the Bank will pay such difference (the “Make-Up Amount”) within 30 days after the determination of the Make-Up Amount regardless of whether the employee is still employed with the Bank at such time. If the Restated Bonus Amount is less than the bonus that was paid, then the employee (or his or her designated beneficiary or estate) shall repay such difference (the “Overpayment Amount”) to the Bank within 30 days after the Bank provides notice of repayment which will specify the Overpayment Amount. The obligation to repay the Bank the Overpayment Amount shall apply regardless of whether the employee is then currently employed with the Bank. The employees selected to participate in the 2012 Senior Management Bonus Plan shall, as a condition of such participation, execute an “Employee Acknowledgment Concerning Participation in 2012 Senior Management Bonus Plan” in the form prepared by the Bank.

 

 

Except in the case of death or termination due to disability, in order to be eligible to receive any payment under the 2012 Senior Management Bonus Plan the employee must be employed with the Bank during all of 2012 and at the time the bonuses under the 2012 Senior Management Bonus Plan are paid. In the event of death or termination due to disability during 2012 or in 2013 but before the payment date, a pro-rata portion of the bonus amount shall be paid to the employee or his or her beneficiary designated in writing and filed with the Bank. The pro-rata amount due shall be determined by a fraction, the numerator being the number of days of full time employment by the Bank in 2012 and the denominator being 365. In the absence of a designated beneficiary, the bonus shall be paid to the estate of a deceased employee.

 

The Board of Directors, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall determine (a) whether the financial metrics on which the bonus is based have been achieved, (b) the amount of any applicable bonus based on the achievement of such metrics and (c) the date on which any bonus is to be paid.

 

The Board of Directors, in its sale and absolute discretion, has the right to amend, modify or discontinue the 2012 Senior Management Bonus Plan at any time.Exhibit 10.6

However, designations will only be effective if signed by the Executive and accepted by the Company during the Executive’s lifetime.  The Executive’s beneficiary designation shall be deemed automatically revoked if the beneficiary predeceases the Executive, or if the Executive names a spouse as beneficiary and the marriage is subsequently dissolved.  If the Executive dies without a valid beneficiary designation, all payments shall be made to the Executive’s estate.

If a benefit is payable to a minor, to a person declared incapacitated, or to a person incapable of handling the disposition of his or her property, the Company may pay such benefit to the guardian, legal representative or person having the care or custody of such minor, incapacitated person or incapable person.  The Company may require proof of incapacity, minority or guardianship as it may deem appropriate prior to distribution of the benefit.  Such distribution shall completely discharge the Company from all liability with respect to such benefit.

During and after his or her employment by the Company or any Subsidiary, regardless of the reasons that such employment ends, the Executive agrees: (i) to hold all Trade Secrets in confidence and not discuss, communicate or transmit to others, or make any unauthorized copy of or use the Trade Secrets in any capacity, position or business except as it directly relates to the Executive’s employment by the Company or any Subsidiary; (ii) to use the Trade Secrets only in furtherance of proper employment related reasons of the Company or Subsidiary to further the interests of the Company or any Subsidiary; (iii) to take all reasonable actions that the Company or any Subsidiary deems necessary or appropriate to prevent unauthorized use or disclosure of or to protect the interest of the Company or any Subsidiary in the Trade Secrets; and (iv) that any of the Trade Secrets, whether prepared by Executive or which may come into the Executive’s possession during the Executive’s employment hereunder, are and remain the property of the Company or applicable Subsidiary, and all such Trade Secrets, including copies thereof, together with all other property belonging to the Company or any Subsidiary, or used in their respective businesses, shall be delivered to or left with the Company or Subsidiary.  Section 6.3.2(a) of this Agreement does not apply to (A) information that by means other than the deliberate or inadvertent disclosure by any employee or agent of the Company or any Subsidiary becomes well known to the public; or (B) disclosure compelled by judicial or administrative proceedings after the Executive diligently tries to avoid each disclosure and affords the Company or Subsidiary the opportunity to obtain assurance that compelled disclosures will receive confidential treatment.

 

8

 

(b)                                 Ownership and Return of Documents.  The Executive agrees that all memoranda, notes, records, papers or other documents and all copies of such documents or records relating to the operations or business of the Company or any Subsidiary, some of which may have been prepared by the Executive, and all objects associated with the documents or records in any way obtained or controlled by the Executive shall be the property of the Company or applicable Subsidiary.  The Executive shall not, except for the Company’s or Subsidiary’s use, copy or duplicate any of the aforementioned documents or objects.  The Executive shall not remove the aforementioned documents or objects from the Company’s or Subsidiary’s facilities nor use any information concerning them either during the Executive’s employment, or at any other time, except for the Company’s or Subsidiary’s benefit or upon the Company’s or Subsidiary’s request.  The Executive agrees to deliver all of the aforementioned documents and objects that may be in his or her possession to the Company or Subsidiary upon termination of the Executive’s employment.

 

(c)                                  Regulatory Matters.  The Company and its Subsidiaries are regulated by federal and state law and require the complete confidence of the regulators and their customers if they are to prosper.  Accordingly, the Executive shall act in good faith and use his or her best efforts to (i) maintain compliance with applicable federal and state laws, and (ii) preserve and improve the good will, growth and reputation of the Company and its Subsidiaries within the banking, e-commerce, and other business related communities.

 

(d)                                 Non-Competition.  The Company and the Executive agree that the services rendered by the Executive hereunder are special, unique and irreplaceable.  By and in consideration of the Company’s entering into this Agreement and the compensation and benefits to be provided by the Company hereunder, and further in consideration of the Executive’s exposure to the proprietary information of the Company or its Subsidiaries, the Executive agrees that he or she will not, during the Employment Term and for a period of two (2) years thereafter, directly own, manage, operate, join, control, be employed by or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or be connected in any manner, including, but not limited to, holding the position of shareholder, director, officer, consultant, independent contractor, employee, partner, or investor, with any Competing Enterprise in the United States; provided, however, that should the Executive terminate employment for Good Reason, the two (2)-year period of noncompetition shall not apply.  The parties agree that the Executive may, without violating the foregoing restrictions: (a) own no more than 5% of the outstanding shares of common stock of a Competing Enterprise so long as he or she is a passive investor; and/or (b) manage, operate, join, control, be employed by or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or be connected in any manner with, a full service bank which offers, not as its main business, banking products or services via the Internet, so long as he or she does not directly manage, operate, control or work for a division or subsidiary of such full service bank which has, as the main business of such division or subsidiary, the delivery of banking products or services via the Internet.

 

(e)                                  Non-Solicitation.  During the Employment Term and for a period of two (2) years thereafter, the Executive shall not directly or indirectly interfere with the 

 

9

 

Company’s or any Subsidiary’s relationship with, or endeavor to entice away from the Company or any Subsidiary, any person who is or was an employee, vendor, consultant, independent contractor or customer of the Company or any Subsidiary or who otherwise had a material business relationship with the Company or any Subsidiary.

 

6.3.3                     Executive represents and warrants that:

 

(a)                                 Executive has read and understands this Agreement;

 

(b)                                 Executive has had an opportunity to consult with legal counsel in connection herewith;

 

(c)                                  the restraints and agreements herein provided are fair and reasonable;

 

(d)                                 enforcement of the provisions of Section 6.3 will not cause him or her undue hardship; and

 

(e)                                  that the above restrictions are reasonable in scope and duration and are the least restrictive means to protect the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ legitimate and proprietary business interests and property from irreparable harm.  However, in the event that any restriction contained in this Section 6.3 is deemed too broad to permit enforcement of such restriction, then the restriction shall be judicially modified by striking the overly broad portion(s) and enforced to provide the Company with the maximum protection permitted by law.

 

6.3.4                     The Company and the Employee hereby recognize that the restrictive non-compete provisions of Section 6.3.2 have value and that value shall be recognized in the Section 280 G calculations by an allocation of the termination benefits between the non-compete provision and the other Termination Benefits based on the value of the fair market value of the non-compete provisions. The Company shall make the determination of the fair value to be assigned.

The Company shall notify any person that makes a claim under this Agreement (the “Claimant”) in writing, within ninety (90) days of Claimant’s written application for benefits, of his or her eligibility or noneligibility for benefits under the Agreement.  If the Company determines that the Claimant is not eligible for benefits or full benefits, the notice shall set forth (1) the specific reasons for such denial, (2) a specific reference to the provisions of the Agreement on which the denial is based, (3) a description of any additional information or material necessary for the Claimant to perfect his or her claim, and a description of why it is needed, and (4) an explanation of this Agreement’s claims review procedure and other appropriate information as to the steps to be taken if the Claimant wishes to have the claim reviewed.

special circumstances and the date by which a decision is expected to be made, and may extend the time for up to an additional ninety (90) days.

 

7.2                               Review Procedure.  If the Claimant is determined by the Company not to be eligible for benefits, or if the Claimant believes that he or she is entitled to greater or different benefits, the Claimant shall have the opportunity to have such claim reviewed by the Company by filing a petition for review with the Company within sixty (60) days after receipt of the notice issued by the Company.  Said petition shall state the specific reasons which the Claimant believes entitle him or her to benefits or to greater or different benefits.  Within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Company of the petition, the Company shall afford the Claimant (and counsel, if any) an opportunity to present his or her position to the Company orally or in writing, and the Claimant (or counsel) shall have the right to review the pertinent documents.  The Company shall notify the Claimant of its decision in writing within the 60-day period, stating specifically the basis of its decision, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant and the specific provisions of the Agreement on which the decision is based.  If, because of the need for a hearing, the 60-day period is not sufficient, the decision may be deferred for up to another sixty (60) days at the election of the Company, but notice of this deferral shall be given to the Claimant.

ADJUSTMENT DUE TO EXCISE TAX

11

 

the provisions of the Executive’s employment agreement where applicable.  For the purposes of calculating an amount payable to the Executive under the guidelines of this section, the amount payable will not exceed 100% of the applicable amount outlined within Section 2.1.1, 2.2.1, 2.3.1 or 2.4.1.  Executive shall be responsible for any and all Excise Tax (or similar taxes imposed upon such payments).

 

9.2                               The determination of the amount of reduction, if any, in the amounts payable to the Executive shall be made in good faith by the Company and a written statement setting forth the calculation thereof shall be provided to the Executive.
