the Company deals (or organizations or other entities or persons associated with
such customers), trade secrets and other confidential information of any type,
together with all written, graphic and other materials relating to all or any
part of the same.

              (b) Non-Disclosure. Except as authorized in writing by the

on Schedule A, the Distributor shall not disclose any Proprietary Information to
local management or employees of such other location(s).

       10.    Patent and Trademark Indemnity. The Company will defend at its

United States patent or trademark, provided that the Company is notified
promptly and given full authority, information and assistance for such defense.
If the Distributor complies with the foregoing obligation, the Company will pay
all damages and costs finally adjudicated against the Distributor, but will not
be responsible for any compromise made without the Company's consent. If the
Trex Products are held to be infringing and their use enjoined, the Company may,
at its election and expense, either (1) obtain for the Distributor the right to
continue selling the Trex Products, (2) replace the Trex Products with
noninfringing Products, or (3) refund the purchase price paid, upon return of
the Trex Products to the Company.

              --------------------

the effective date of such termination, to purchase the Distributor's inventory
which was purchased by the Distributor within the past twelve (12) months prior
to the date of termination. If the Company exercises such option, the
Distributor will sell and release to the Company such inventory at a price equal
to the price initially paid by the Distributor for such Trex Products, provided
the Trex Products have been properly stored in accordance with Trex's storage
guidelines and are in a good and saleable condition.

              (f) Return of Company Property. Upon termination of this Agreement
                  --------------------------

              (a) Waiver. Failure of either party at any time to require

     assets, return on average assets, return on average stockholders' equity,
     net interest margin, overhead ratio, efficiency ratio, net charge-offs
     ratio, other measures of growth, earnings, asset quality and risk and other
     factors deemed appropriate by the Compensation Committee. Such bonus, if
     any, shall be payable to Gleason no later than the end of the first quarter
     of the succeeding fiscal year.

Additional benefits may be provided and additional equity based compensation may
be paid Gleason from time to time by majority vote of the Compensation Committee
of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, with members of the Gleason family
or any other interested director abstaining. Nothing herein shall prohibit
Gleason from being reimbursed for reasonable and customary business expenses or
from receiving an allowance therefor.

     4.  Restrictive Covenant. Gleason expressly agrees, as a condition to the
         --------------------
performance by the Corporation of its obligations hereunder, that during the

         ------------------------------
encumber or dispose of the right to receive payments hereunder, which payments
and the right thereto are expressly declared to be non-assignable and
non-transferable and, in the event of any attempted assignment or transfer, the
Corporation shall have no further liability hereunder.

     6.  Reorganization. The Corporation shall not merge or consolidate with any
         --------------
other organization or organizations until such organization or organizations
expressly assume the duties of the Corporation herein set forth.

     7.  Independence of Other Agreements. This Agreement is hereby declared to
         --------------------------------
be independent of all other benefits and retirement or deferred compensation
plans now or hereafter adopted by the Corporation, including the 401(k) plan
currently existing, and shall not, unless mutually agreed upon in writing, be
supplanted or replaced by any other such plan or agreement.

     8.  This Agreement replaces and supersedes the employment agreement between
the parties hereto dated December 29, 2000 to be effective as of January 1,
2001.
