          charter, or the Company fails to raise the necessary capital required
          to open the Bank, and should the Company's or the Bank's Board of
          Directors decide to forgo future efforts to open the Bank, in which
          event the Employer shall be required to continue to meet its
          obligation to the Executive under Section 4.1 for six (6) months;

               (b)  For Cause, upon written notice to the Executive pursuant
          to Section 1.5.1 hereof, where the notice has been approved by a
          resolution passed by two-thirds of the directors of either the Bank or

               (d)  Upon the Disability of the Executive at any time,
          provided that the Employer shall give the Executive thirty (30) days'
          prior written notice of its intent to terminate, in which event, the

          Section 4.1 for six (6) months following the termination or until the
          Executive begins receiving payments under the Company's long-term
          disability policy, whichever occurs first.

                                        5
<PAGE>
          3.2.2     By  the  Executive:

               (a)  For Cause, in which event the Employer shall be required
          to continue to meet its obligations under Section 4.1 for a period
          equal to twelve (12) months following the termination; or

               (b)  Without Cause or upon the Disability of the Executive,
          provided that the Executive shall give the Employer sixty (60) days'
          prior written notice of his intent to terminate.

          3.2.3     At  any  time upon mutual, written agreement of the parties.

          3.2.4     Notwithstanding  anything in this Agreement to the contrary,

     3.3  CHANGE OF CONTROL. If the Executive terminates his employment with
          -----------------
the Employer under this Agreement for any reason within six (6) months following
a Change of Control, the Executive, or in the event of his subsequent death, his

liquidated damages, in lieu of all other claims, a severance payment equal to
two (2) times the Executive's then current Base Salary to be paid in full on the
last day of the month following the date of termination. In no event shall the
payment(s) described in this Section 3.3 exceed the amount permitted by Section
280G of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the "Code"). Therefore, if the
aggregate present value (determined as of the date of the Change of Control in
accordance with the provisions of Section 280G of the Code) of both the
severance payment and all other payments to the Executive in the nature of
compensation which are contingent on a change in ownership or effective control
of the Bank or the Company or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the
assets of the Bank or the Company (the "Aggregate Severance") would result in a
"parachute payment," as defined under Section 280G of the Code, then the
Aggregate Severance shall not be greater than an amount equal to 2.99 multiplied
by Executive's "base amount" for the "base period," as those terms are defined
under Section 280G. In the event the Aggregate Severance is required to be
reduced pursuant to this Section 3.3, the Executive shall be entitled to
determine which portions of the Aggregate Severance are to be reduced so that
the Aggregate Severance satisfies the limit set forth in the preceding sentence.
Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, if the Executive may exercise
his right to terminate employment under this Section 3.3 or under Section
3.2.2(a), the Executive may choose which provision shall be applicable.

     3.4  EFFECT OF TERMINATION. Upon termination of the Executive's
          ---------------------
employment hereunder for any reason, the Employer shall have no further
obligations to the Executive or the Executive's estate with respect to this
Agreement, except for the payment of salary and bonus amounts, if any, accrued
pursuant to Sections 4.1 and 4.2 hereof and unpaid as of the effective date of
the termination of employment and payments set forth in Sections 3.2.1(a), (c)
or (d); Section 3.2.2(a); and/or Section 3.3 as applicable. Nothing contained
herein shall limit or impinge upon any other rights or remedies of the Employer
or the Executive under any other agreement or plan to which the Executive is a
party or of which the Executive is a beneficiary.

     3.1  TERM. This Agreement shall remain in effect for the Term.
          ----
While this Agreement remains in effect, it shall automatically renew each day
after the Beginning Date such that the Term remains a three-year term from

intent that the automatic renewals shall cease. In the event such notice of
non-extension is properly given, this Agreement and the Term shall expire on the
third anniversary of the thirtieth (30th) day following the date such written

          -----------
under  this  Agreement  may  be  terminated  only  as  follows:

          3.2.1     By  the  Employer:

               (a)  In the event that the Bank fails to receive its regulatory
          charter, or the Company fails to raise the necessary capital required
          to open the Bank, and should the Company's or the Bank's Board of
          Directors decide to forgo future efforts to open the Bank, in which
          event the Employer shall be required to continue to meet its
          obligation to the Executive under Section 4.1 for six (6) months;

               (b)  For Cause, upon written notice to the Executive pursuant
          to Section 1.5.1 hereof, where the notice has been approved by a
          resolution passed by two-thirds of the directors of either the Bank or
          the Company then in office;

          the Bank shall give the Executive thirty (30) days' prior written
          notice of its intent to terminate, in which event the Employer shall
          be required to continue to meet its obligations to the Executive under
          Section 4.1 for a period equal to twelve (12) months; or

               (d)  Upon the Disability of the Executive at any time,
          provided that the Employer shall give the Executive thirty (30) days'
          prior written notice of its intent to terminate, in which event, the
          Employer shall be required to continue to meet its obligations under
          Section 4.1 for six (6) months following the termination or until the
          Executive begins receiving payments under the Company's long-term
          disability policy, whichever occurs first.

                                        5
<PAGE>
          3.2.2     By  the  Executive:

               (a)  For Cause, in which event the Employer shall be required
          to continue to meet its obligations under Section 4.1 for a period
          equal to twelve (12) months following the termination; or

               (b)  Without Cause or upon the Disability of the Executive,
          provided that the Executive shall give the Employer sixty (60) days'
          prior written notice of his intent to terminate.

          3.2.3     At  any  time upon mutual, written agreement of the parties.

          3.2.4     Notwithstanding  anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
     the Term shall end automatically upon the Executive's death.

     3.3  CHANGE OF CONTROL. If the Executive terminates his employment with
          -----------------
the Employer under this Agreement for any reason within six (6) months following
a Change of Control, the Executive, or in the event of his subsequent death, his
designated beneficiaries or his estate, as the case may be, shall receive, as
liquidated damages, in lieu of all other claims, a severance payment equal to
two (2) times the Executive's then current Base Salary to be paid in full on the
last day of the month following the date of termination. In no event shall the
payment(s) described in this Section 3.3 exceed the amount permitted by Section
280G of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the "Code"). Therefore, if the
aggregate present value (determined as of the date of the Change of Control in
accordance with the provisions of Section 280G of the Code) of both the
severance payment and all other payments to the Executive in the nature of
compensation which are contingent on a change in ownership or effective control
of the Bank or the Company or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the
assets of the Bank or the Company (the "Aggregate Severance") would result in a
"parachute payment," as defined under Section 280G of the Code, then the
Aggregate Severance shall not be greater than an amount equal to 2.99 multiplied
by Executive's "base amount" for the "base period," as those terms are defined
under Section 280G. In the event the Aggregate Severance is required to be
reduced pursuant to this Section 3.3, the Executive shall be entitled to
determine which portions of the Aggregate Severance are to be reduced so that
the Aggregate Severance satisfies the limit set forth in the preceding sentence.
Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, if the Executive may exercise
his right to terminate employment under this Section 3.3 or under Section
3.2.2(a), the Executive may choose which provision shall be applicable.

     3.4  EFFECT OF TERMINATION. Upon termination of the Executive's
          ---------------------
employment hereunder for any reason, the Employer shall have no further
obligations to the Executive or the Executive's estate with respect to this
Agreement, except for the payment of salary and bonus amounts, if any, accrued
pursuant to Sections 4.1 and 4.2 hereof and unpaid as of the effective date of
the termination of employment and payments set forth in Sections 3.2.1(a), (c)
or (d); Section 3.2.2(a); and/or Section 3.3 as applicable. Nothing contained
herein shall limit or impinge upon any other rights or remedies of the Employer
or the Executive under any other agreement or plan to which the Executive is a
party or of which the Executive is a beneficiary.

fiscal month in which the Bank attains pretax profits, as determined by the
Board of Directors of the Company or the Bank, the Executive shall be eligible
for an annual bonus in an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the Executive's
Base Salary. At such time as the Bank attains cumulative profitability, as
determined by the Board of Directors of the Company or the Bank, the Executive
shall be eligible for an annual bonus in an amount equal to fifteen percent
(15%) of the Executive's Base Salary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Executive shall only receive a bonus if the Bank has a CAMELS rating of 1 or 2

of the Bank, including its asset quality, will not be adversely affected by
payment of such bonus.

equal to the price at which such stock was offered and sold in the initial
offering. The option generally will become vested and exercisable in one-third
increments, commencing on the first anniversary of the option grant date and
continuing for the next two (2) successive anniversaries until the option is
fully vested and exercisable. Upon a Change of Control, the option will become
fully vested and exercisable, subject to restrictions as may be imposed by the
Bank's primary regulator. The option shall expire generally upon the earliest of
(i) three (3) months following the Executive's termination of employment; (ii)
one (1) year following the Executive's termination of employment due to death or
disability; or (iii) the tenth anniversary of the option grant date. The option
will be issued by the Employer pursuant to the Company's stock incentive plan
and subject to the terms of a related stock option agreement.

     4.4  HEALTH INSURANCE. The Employer shall reimburse the Executive for
