         years ending before the date on which the Change in Control occurs (or
         such shorter period of time that the Executive has been employed by the
         Company). The definition, interpretation and calculation of the dollar
         amount of Base Amount shall be in a manner consistent with and as
         required by the provisions of Section 280G of the Code, and the
         regulations and rulings of the Internal Revenue Service promulgated

         termination for Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, "Good
         Reason" shall mean any of the following:

         breach; or

                           (ii) the occurrence of any one of the following
         events within six (6) months prior to or within two (2) years following
         a Change in Control:

                  responsibilities or status with the Company immediately prior
                  to the earlier of termination of employment or the Change in
                  Control or a substantial reduction of his duties or
                  responsibilities which does not represent a promotion from his

                  earlier of termination of employment or the Change in Control.

                                    (B) A reduction by the Company in
                  Executive's salary from the level of such salary immediately
                  prior to the earlier of termination of employment or the
                  Change in Control or the Company's failure to increase (within
                  twelve (12) months of Executive's last increase in base
                  salary) Executive's base salary after a Change in Control in
                  an amount which at least equals, on a percentage basis, the
                  average percentage increase in base salary for all executive
                  and senior officers of the Company effected in the preceding
                  twelve (12) months.

                  in effect any incentive, bonus or other compensation plan in
                  which Executive participates, including but not limited to the
                  Company's stock option plans, unless an equitable arrangement

                  Executive has consented, has been made with respect to such

                  by the Company to continue Executive's participation therein,

                  to provide Executive with benefits substantially similar to
                  those enjoyed by Executive or to which Executive was entitled
                  under any of the Company's principal pension, profit sharing,

                  employment or the Change in Control, the taking of any action
                  by the Company which would directly or indirectly materially
                  reduce any of such benefits or deprive Executive of any
                  material fringe benefit enjoyed by Executive or to which
                  Executive was entitled immediately prior to the earlier of the
                  termination of employment or the Change in Control, or the
                  failure by the Company to provide Executive with the number of
                  paid vacation and sick leave days to which Executive is
                  entitled on the basis of years of service or position with the
                  Company in accordance with the Company's normal vacation

         capacity, or (c) in any other capacity in which Executive's knowledge
         of the Company's confidential information or the customer goodwill
         Executive helped to develop on behalf of the Company would facilitate
         or support Executive's work for such competitor or competitive
         enterprise. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Restrictive
         Period" shall mean two years from the date of termination of employment
         except for termination of employment pursuant to Section 7.3, in which
         case the term shall mean one year from the date of termination of

         "Competitive Business" means any business that is traditionally engaged
         in by a bank, a bank holding company or a financial holding company, or
         that provides products and services similar to and competitive with the
         products and services provided by the Company or any of its
         subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may make and
         retain investments in less than one percent of the equity of any entity

         national securities exchange or regularly traded in an over-the-counter
         market.

         agrees that the covenants contained in this Section 9 prohibit
         Executive from engaging in certain activities directly or indirectly,
         whether on Executive's own behalf or on behalf of any other person or
         entity, and regardless of the capacity in which Executive is acting,
         including without limitation as an employee, independent contractor,
         owner, partner, officer, agent, consultant, or advisor.

                  9.7. SURVIVAL OF RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS. Executive acknowledges
         and agrees that his obligations under this Section 9 shall survive the
         expiration or termination of this Agreement and the cessation of his
         employment with the Company for whatever reason.

                  9.8. EXTENSION. In the event Executive violates any of the
         restrictive covenants contained in this Section 9, the duration of such

         was in violation of such restriction.

                  9.9. SEVERABILITY; MODIFICATION OF RESTRICTIONS. Although
         Executive and the Company consider the restrictions contained in this
         Section 9 to be reasonable, particularly given the competitive nature
         of the Company's business and Executive's position with the Company,
         Executive and the Company acknowledge and agree that: (a) if any
         covenant, subsection, portion or clause of this Section 9 is determined
         to be unenforceable or invalid for any reason, such unenforceability or
         invalidity shall not affect the enforceability or validity of the
         remainder of the Agreement; and (b) if any particular covenant,
         subsection, provision or clause of this Section 9 is determined to be
         unreasonable or unenforceable for any reason, including, without
         limitation, the time period, geographic area, and/or scope of activity
         covered by any restrictive covenant, such covenant, subsection,
         provision or clause shall automatically be deemed reformed such that
         the contested covenant, subsection, provision or clause shall have the
         closest effect permitted by applicable law to the original form and
         shall be given effect and enforced as so reformed to whatever extent
         would be reasonable and enforceable under applicable law.

                  10. REMEDIES. Executive recognizes that a breach or threatened
breach by Executive of Section 8 or Section 9 of this Agreement will give rise
to irreparable injury to the Company and that money damages will not be adequate
relief for such injury. Notwithstanding Section 14.8 of this Agreement,
Executive agrees that the Company shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief,
including, but not limited to, temporary restraining orders, preliminary
injunctions and/or permanent injunctions, without having to post any bond or
other security, to restrain or prohibit such breach or threatened breach, in
addition to any other legal remedies which may be available, including the
recovery of money damages.

                  11. NO ADDITIONAL PAYMENT TO ACCOUNT FOR EXCISE TAXES. In the
event it shall be determined that any payment or distribution by the Company to
or for the benefit of Executive (whether paid or payable or distributed or
distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (a "Payment")

interest or penalties are incurred by the Executive with respect to such excise
tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and penalties, are
hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Excise Tax"), then the Executive
shall not be entitled to receive any additional payment in any amount as a
"gross up", reimbursement or indemnity for such Excise Tax.

         Executive's employment with the Company without cause for any reason or
         no reason by notifying Executive in writing of the Company's intent to
         terminate, specifying in such notice the effective termination date,
         and this Agreement and Executive's employment with the Company shall

         public disgrace or disrepute or to injure the reputation or goodwill of
         the Company; (h) Executive's material violation of the Company's
         business ethics or conflict-of-interest policies, as such policies
         currently exist or as they may be amended or implemented during
         Executive's employment with the Company; (i) Executive's misuse of
         alcohol or illegal drugs which interferes with the performance of
         Executive's employment duties for the Company or which compromises the
         reputation or goodwill of the Company; (j) Executive's intentional
         violation of any applicable banking law or regulation in the
         performance of Executive's employment duties for the Company; or (k)

         applicable to the Company's employees generally that Company currently

         Executive's employment with the Company.

                           Upon the occurrence of any of the events specified
         above, the Company may terminate Executive's employment for Cause by
         notifying Executive in writing of its decision to terminate his
         employment for Cause, and Executive's employment and this Agreement
         shall terminate at the close of business on the date on which the
         Company gives such notice.

                           Upon termination of Executive's employment by the
         Company for Cause, the Company's obligation to pay or provide Executive
         compensation and benefits under this Agreement shall terminate, except:
         (a) the Company shall pay Executive that portion of his Base Salary, at

         such other payments or benefits, if any, which had accrued hereunder
         before the termination date. Other than the foregoing, the Company
         shall have no further obligations to Executive under this Agreement.

                  7.5. TERMINATION BY THE COMPANY IN CONNECTION WITH A CHANGE IN
         CONTROL. If at any time during the Term Executive's employment under
         this Agreement is terminated by the Company without the Executive's
         prior written consent other than for any of the reasons set forth in
         Sections 7.1, 7.2 and 7.4 within six (6) months before or within two
         (2) years after a Change in Control, the Company's obligation to pay or
         provide Executive compensation and benefits under this Agreement shall
         terminate, except (a) the Company shall pay Executive that portion of
         his Base Salary, at the rate then in effect, which shall have been
         earned through the termination date; (b) the Company shall pay or

         termination or, if later, such a Change in Control, a lump sum
         severance payment of an amount equal to the greater of the amount
         calculated under the following clauses (1) and (2): (1) a cash payment
         in an amount that, when added to all other accelerated payments or
         benefits to Executive, would be equal to two and nine-tenths (2.9)
         times the "Base Amount" and (2) two and nine-tenths (2.9) times the
         Base Amount minus the full amount payable by the Executive to the
         Internal Revenue Service under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue
         Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). For purposes of this Agreement,
         "Base Amount" is defined as Executive's

                                      -5-

         compensation paid by the Company for the five (5) most recent taxable
         years ending before the date on which the Change in Control occurs (or
         such shorter period of time that the Executive has been employed by the
         Company). The definition, interpretation and calculation of the dollar
         amount of Base Amount shall be in a manner consistent with and as
         required by the provisions of Section 280G of the Code, and the
         regulations and rulings of the Internal Revenue Service promulgated
         thereunder.

         termination for Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, "Good
         Reason" shall mean any of the following:

         breach; or

                           (ii) the occurrence of any one of the following
         events within six (6) months prior to or within two (2) years following
         a Change in Control:

                  responsibilities or status with the Company immediately prior
                  to the earlier of termination of employment or the Change in
                  Control or a substantial reduction of his duties or
                  responsibilities which does not represent a promotion from his
                  position, duties or responsibilities immediately prior to the
                  earlier of termination of employment or the Change in Control.

                                    (B) A reduction by the Company in

                  prior to the earlier of termination of employment or the
                  Change in Control or the Company's failure to increase (within
                  twelve (12) months of Executive's last increase in base
                  salary) Executive's base salary after a Change in Control in
                  an amount which at least equals, on a percentage basis, the
                  average percentage increase in base salary for all executive
                  and senior officers of the Company effected in the preceding
                  twelve (12) months.

                                    (C) The failure by the Company to continue
                  in effect any incentive, bonus or other compensation plan in
                  which Executive participates, including but not limited to the
                  Company's stock option plans, unless an equitable arrangement
                  (embodied in

                                      -6-

                  an ongoing substitute or alternative plan), with which
                  Executive has consented, has been made with respect to such
                  plan in connection with the Change in Control, or the failure
                  by the Company to continue Executive's participation therein,
                  or any action by the Company which would directly or
                  indirectly materially reduce Executive's participation

                  to provide Executive with benefits substantially similar to
                  those enjoyed by Executive or to which Executive was entitled
                  under any of the Company's principal pension, profit sharing,
                  life insurance, medical, dental, health and accident, or

                  immediately prior to the earlier of the termination of
                  employment or the Change in Control, the taking of any action
                  by the Company which would directly or indirectly materially
                  reduce any of such benefits or deprive Executive of any
                  material fringe benefit enjoyed by Executive or to which
                  Executive was entitled immediately prior to the earlier of the
                  termination of employment or the Change in Control, or the
                  failure by the Company to provide Executive with the number of
                  paid vacation and sick leave days to which Executive is
                  entitled on the basis of years of service or position with the
                  Company in accordance with the Company's normal vacation
                  policy in effect on the date hereof.

                                    (E) The Company's requiring Executive to be
                  based anywhere other than the metropolitan area where the

                  assumption of the obligation to perform this Agreement by any
                  successor as contemplated in Section 12.1 hereof.

                                    (G) Any failure by the Company or its
                  shareholders, as the case may be, to reappoint or reelect
                  Executive to a corporate office held by him immediately prior
                  to the earlier of the termination of employment or the Change
                  in Control or his removal from any such office including any
                  seat held at such time on the Company's Board of Directors.

                  immediately prior to the Change in Control or of any seat held
                  at such time on the Company's Board of Directors, at the
                  request of the Company or at the request of the person
                  obtaining control of the Company in such Change in Control.

                                    (I) Any request by the Company that

         contrary, Executive's right to terminate Executive's employment
         pursuant to this Section 7.6 shall not be affected by Executive's
         incapacity due to physical or mental illness.

                           If this Agreement and Executive's employment are

         Executive's notice of termination, the Company shall have the right to
         terminate Executive's employment with the Company at any time during
         the Executive's Notice Period. Upon termination of Executive's
         employment with the Company under this Section 7.7, whether at the end

         the Company's obligation to pay Executive compensation and benefits
         under this Agreement shall immediately terminate, except: (a) the

                  7.9. NON-RENEWAL BY THE COMPANY. In the event the Company

         under this Agreement.

                  7.10. FORFEITURE OF COMPENSATION. In the event Executive

         Executive acknowledge and agree that the foregoing remedies are in
         addition to, and not in lieu of, any and all other legal and/or

connection with his employment with the Company he has provided and will
continue to provide executive-level services that are of a unique and special
value and that he has been and will continue to be entrusted with confidential

further acknowledges that the Company and its affiliates are engaged in highly
competitive businesses and that the Company and its affiliates expend
substantial amounts of time, money and effort to develop trade secrets, business
strategies, customer relationships, employee relationships and goodwill, and
Executive has benefited and will continue to benefit from these efforts.

         worked for the Company, (b) in any executive level or senior management
         capacity, or (c) in any other capacity in which Executive's knowledge
         of the Company's confidential information or the customer goodwill
         Executive helped to develop on behalf of the Company would facilitate
         or support Executive's work for such competitor or competitive
         enterprise. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Restrictive
         Period" shall mean two years from the date of termination of employment
         except for termination of employment pursuant to Section 7.3, in which
         case the term shall mean one year from the date of termination of
         employment. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Restricted

         (x) all counties contiguous to Vanderburgh County; (y) any county in
         which the Company or any of its subsidiaries has an office or branch
         location; and (z) all counties contiguous to the counties referred to

         "Competitive Business" means any business that is traditionally engaged
         in by a bank, a bank holding company or a financial holding company, or
         that provides products and services similar to and competitive with the
         products and services provided by the Company or any of its
         subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may make and
         retain investments in less than one percent of the equity of any entity
         engaged in a Competitive Business, if such equity is listed on a
         national securities exchange or regularly traded in an over-the-counter
         market.

                  9.3. NON-INTERFERENCE WITH CUSTOMERS. During Executive's
         employment with the Company and during the Restrictive Period,
         Executive will not urge, induce or seek to induce any of the Company's
         Customers to terminate their business with the Company or to cancel,
         reduce, limit or in any manner interfere with the Company's Customers'
         business with the Company.

                  9.4. NON-INTERFERENCE WITH CONTRACTORS AND VENDORS. During the
         term of Executive's employment with the Company and during the
         Restrictive Period, Executive will not urge, induce or seek to induce

         limit, or in any manner modify any of such person's or entity's

         his/her relationship with the Company.

                  9.6. DIRECT OR INDIRECT ACTIVITIES. Executive acknowledges and
         agrees that the covenants contained in this Section 9 prohibit
         Executive from engaging in certain activities directly or indirectly,
         whether on Executive's own behalf or on behalf of any other person or
         entity, and regardless of the capacity in which Executive is acting,
         including without limitation as an employee, independent contractor,

                  9.7. SURVIVAL OF RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS. Executive acknowledges
         and agrees that his obligations under this Section 9 shall survive the

                  9.8. EXTENSION. In the event Executive violates any of the
         restrictive covenants contained in this Section 9, the duration of such
         restrictive covenant shall

                                      -14-

         automatically be extended by the length of time during which Executive
         was in violation of such restriction.

                  9.9. SEVERABILITY; MODIFICATION OF RESTRICTIONS. Although
         Executive and the Company consider the restrictions contained in this
         Section 9 to be reasonable, particularly given the competitive nature
         of the Company's business and Executive's position with the Company,
         Executive and the Company acknowledge and agree that: (a) if any
         covenant, subsection, portion or clause of this Section 9 is determined
         to be unenforceable or invalid for any reason, such unenforceability or
         invalidity shall not affect the enforceability or validity of the
         remainder of the Agreement; and (b) if any particular covenant,
         subsection, provision or clause of this Section 9 is determined to be
         unreasonable or unenforceable for any reason, including, without
         limitation, the time period, geographic area, and/or scope of activity
         covered by any restrictive covenant, such covenant, subsection,
         provision or clause shall automatically be deemed reformed such that
         the contested covenant, subsection, provision or clause shall have the
         closest effect permitted by applicable law to the original form and
         shall be given effect and enforced as so reformed to whatever extent
         would be reasonable and enforceable under applicable law.

                  10. REMEDIES. Executive recognizes that a breach or threatened
breach by Executive of Section 8 or Section 9 of this Agreement will give rise
to irreparable injury to the Company and that money damages will not be adequate
relief for such injury. Notwithstanding Section 14.8 of this Agreement,
Executive agrees that the Company shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief,
including, but not limited to, temporary restraining orders, preliminary
injunctions and/or permanent injunctions, without having to post any bond or
other security, to restrain or prohibit such breach or threatened breach, in
addition to any other legal remedies which may be available, including the
recovery of money damages.

                  11. NO ADDITIONAL PAYMENT TO ACCOUNT FOR EXCISE TAXES. In the
event it shall be determined that any payment or distribution by the Company to
or for the benefit of Executive (whether paid or payable or distributed or
distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (a "Payment")
would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any
interest or penalties are incurred by the Executive with respect to such excise
tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and penalties, are
hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Excise Tax"), then the Executive
shall not be entitled to receive any additional payment in any amount as a
"gross up", reimbursement or indemnity for such Excise Tax.

                  12.1. ASSIGNMENT BY COMPANY. The rights and obligations of the

         supplement the provisions of the Uniform Trade Secrets Act, as amended
         from time to time, and the duties Executive owes to the Company under
         the common law, including, but not limited to, the duty of loyalty. The
         parties agree that any legal action pursuant to Section 10 of this
         Agreement shall be commenced and maintained exclusively before any
         appropriate state court of record in Vanderburgh County, Indiana, or in
         the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana,
         Evansville Division, and the parties hereby submit to the jurisdiction
         and venue of such courts and waive any right to challenge or otherwise
         object to personal jurisdiction or venue in any action commenced or
         maintained in such courts.

                  14.8. ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES. Except as provided in Section
         10 of this Agreement, any controversy or claim arising out of or
         relating to this Agreement or the breach thereof, shall be settled by
         binding arbitration in the City of Evansville, Indiana, in accordance
         with the laws of the State of Indiana by three arbitrators, one of whom
         shall be appointed by the Company, one by Executive and the third of
         whom shall be appointed by the first two arbitrators. The arbitration
         shall be conducted in accordance with the rules of the American
         Arbitration Association, except with respect to the selection of
         arbitrators which shall be as provided in this Section. Judgment upon
         the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court
         having jurisdiction thereof. The expenses of arbitration, and the fees
         of the arbitrators, shall be paid by the party determined by the
         arbitrators as the non-prevailing party. In addition, the prevailing
         party shall be entitled to recover its costs, including reasonable
         attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with the arbitration, any
         proceeding under Section 10 and any subsequent enforcement of any
         arbitration award in court.
