Exhibit 10.38

 

HOME FEDERAL BANK

Sixth Amended and Restated
Long-Term Incentive Plan

(as amended and restated
effective July 1, 2010)

 

1.             Purpose

 

The
purpose of the Home Federal Bank (“Bank”) Sixth Amended and Restated Long-Term
Incentive Plan (“Plan”) is to reward key managers for the attainment of longer
term goals of the Bank. The reward will be in the form of cash, stock
appreciation rights, stock options and/or restricted stock of the common shares
of the Bank’s holding company, HF Financial Corp. This Plan amends, restates,
replaces and supersedes the Bank’s existing Long-Term Incentive Plan.

 

The
Plan is designed to reward key managers for performance over a period of longer
than one (1) year. The Plan also is designed to enable the Bank to attract
and retain key management talent.

 

The
purpose of this Plan is to measure performance and to award Executives with
cash, stock appreciation rights, stock options and/or restricted stock based
upon their performance. All stock appreciation rights, stock options and/or
restricted stock awarded will be governed by the terms of the HF Financial
Corp. 2002 Stock Option and Incentive Plan. As set forth in paragraph 3,
payment of cash compensation shall be determined by the Personnel Compensation
and Benefits Committee.

 

2.             Participation

 

The
Plan is for selected management staff of Home Federal Bank. Participation in
this Plan will be recommended by the Chairman and CEO and approved by the
Personnel, Compensation and Benefits Committee of the Board of Directors. Participation
in any one year does not guarantee the participation in future years or at the
same award level.

 

New
hires to the Corporation and individuals promoted to assignments which by
virtue of their responsibilities may be otherwise eligible to participate in
this Plan may only participate with the approval of the Chairman and CEO. The
Plan Year is the Corporation’s fiscal year.

 

3.             Performance Measure, Award Levels and Award
Payment

 

The
annual performance measure, award levels and award payment provisions are
determined by the Personnel, Compensation and Benefits Committee. Unless
otherwise specifically provided by the Committee, payment of awards denominated
in cash shall be made in a lump sum within 21⁄2 months following the close of the
Plan Year in which the award was earned.

 

4.             Termination of Employment

 

If
the employment of a Plan participant terminates during the fiscal year for
which performance is being measured and which might result in an award, all
rights to an award under this Plan are forfeited. Notwithstanding the
provisions hereof, in the event of death or for those individuals who
participate in the Plan and have executed a Change in Control Agreement with
the Bank, the provisions of paragraph 5 shall apply. Once stock appreciation
rights, stock options and/or restricted stock have been awarded, the terms of
the HF Financial Corp. 2002 Stock Option and Incentive Plan shall control.

 

5.             Death and Change in Control

 

(a)           If a Plan participant dies during a Plan Year, the Plan
participant or the participant’s designated beneficiary shall receive, in cash,
any incentive payment for the partial year otherwise payable in cash, based on
the number of months from the start of the Plan Year (or if later, from the
first day of the month coincident with or next following the participant’s date
of participation in the Plan) to the last day of 

 

 

the month in which the death occurred, but only to
the extent that an incentive payment is otherwise earned for the Plan Year.

 

(b)           If a Plan participant is entitled to benefits under a
Change in Control Agreement, the participant shall receive, in cash, any
incentive payment for the partial year otherwise payable in cash, based on the
number of months from the start of the Plan Year (or if later, from the first
day of the month coincident with or next following the participant’s date of
participation in the Plan) to the last day of the month in which the Date of
Termination (as defined in the Change in Control Agreement) occurs.

 

6.             Beneficiary Designation

 

(a)           Any incentive payment following the death of a participant
shall be paid to such person or persons, or other legal entity, as the
participant may have designated in writing and delivered to Home Federal Bank.
The participant may from time to time revoke or change any such designation by
writing to Home Federal Bank. If there is no unrevoked designation on file at
the participant’s death, or if the person or persons designated therein shall
have all pre-deceased the participant, such distribution shall be made to the
participant’s estate.

 

7.             Administration and Interpretation of Plan

 

The
Plan shall be administered by the Chairman and CEO of the Bank whose actions
will be subject to the approval of the Personnel, Compensation and Benefits
Committee in material matters. The role of the Committee shall be to approve
the Home Federal Bank’s Long-Term Incentive Plan, approve the annual target
goal, approve Plan participants and (at the end of the Plan Year) approve the
distribution of the incentive payment to all participants. The Plan
Administrator is charged with the effective administration of the Plan
including the interpretation in instances where the Plan is silent.

 

The
Personnel, Compensation and Benefits Committee reserves the right, from time to
time, to prescribe rules and regulations at such time and in such manner
as it may deem appropriate.

 

8.             Amendment/Termination of Plan

 

The
Plan may be amended and shall be interpreted by the Personnel, Compensation and
Benefits Committee of the Board of Directors, and its interpretation shall be
final and binding on participant and all other parties of interest. The Plan
may be terminated at any time as the Personnel, Compensation and Benefits
Committee of the Board of Directors approves. Plan participants will be
notified as soon as possible in the event of an amendment or terminations
occurs.

 

9.             Employment

 

The
Plan is not intended as an Employment Agreement. The Plan does not restrict the
rights of the Bank to terminate the employment of a Plan participant at any
time and without any obligation under the Plan.

 

10.           Legal Requirements

 

The
Plan will be administered in accordance with all federal, state and local
statutory requirements.

 

11.           Effective Date

 

This
Amendment and Restatement becomes effective July 1, 2010.

SEVERANCE AGREEMENT AND RELEASE

 

THIS
SEVERANCE AGREEMENT AND RELEASE (“Agreement”) is entered into between David de
Poincy (“de Poincy”) and Sabre Industries, Inc., its parents,
subsidiaries, affiliated and holding companies, officers, directors agents,
and/or employees (“Sabre”), and shall become effective following the revocation
period set forth in Paragraph 16 (the “Effective Date”).  In consideration of the obligations and
rights described below, the parties agree to be bound as follows:

 

1.             Entire
Agreement.  The parties
acknowledge and agree that this Agreement constitutes and contains the parties’
entire agreement and understanding and supersedes and replaces all prior
negotiations, agreements, writings, grants, understandings, and representations
between de Poincy and Sabre including, but not limited to, any offer letters,
any Noncompete, Nonsolicitation and Confidentiality Agreement between the
parties, Long Term Incentive Compensation Plan, Management Incentive
Compensation Plans, and any other document governing the relationship between
Sabre and de Poincy.  This Agreement,
however, shall not supersede or replace the terms of the Consulting Agreement
between de Poincy and Sabre.  Each of the
parties warrants that no other party or any agent or attorney of any other
party has made any promise, representation or warranty whatsoever not contained
herein to induce him/it to execute this Agreement and the other documents
referred to herein.  Each of the parties
represents that he/it has not executed this Agreement or the other documents in
reliance on any promise, representation or warranty not contained herein.

 

2.             Waiver and
Inducement.  As a
material inducement to Sabre to enter into this Agreement, de Poincy represents
that he has not filed any lawsuits, charges, or discrimination complaints with
any local, state, or federal agency or court of law arising from his
relationship with Sabre, including termination of that relationship.  De Poincy further represents that, subject to
Sabre’s compliance with this Agreement’s terms, de Poincy will not seek to
recover any monetary damages against Sabre.

 

3.             Severance.  Sabre and de Poincy agree that as of the
Effective Date, and conditioned upon de Poincy’s compliance with the terms of
this Agreement, de Poincy: (a) shall be allowed to retain the company car,
identified as a Chevrolet Tahoe, currently in his possession, and shall be
responsible for all taxes, registration, transfer of ownership, and insurance
fees associated with ownership of this vehicle beginning June 7, 2010; and
(b) shall be entitled to retain the cell phone issued by Sabre, and de
Poincy shall be solely responsible for the payment of de Poincy’s cell phone
plan for that individual cell phone as of the Effective Date.

 

4.             Vacation.  De Poincy acknowledges that, as of the
Effective Date, Sabre paid him the total amount of his accrued, but unused,
vacation days.

 

5.             Return of Property.  On the Effective Date, all Sabre property
including, but not limited to, Sabre security cards, keys, employee badge,
credit cards, laptop computers, desktop computers and any other computer
hardware or software issued by Sabre to de Poincy shall be returned to
Sabre.  In the event that de Poincy
retains any information, documents, property or equipment beyond the Effective
Date, de Poincy authorizes Sabre to deduct the fair market value of all such
information, documents, property and/or equipment from any payments due and
owing de Poincy.

 

6.             Release of
Claims.  De Poincy
and his successors and assigns, hereby releases, settles, acquits, and forever
discharges Sabre and its past, present and future parent entities,
subsidiaries, division, affiliates and realted business entities, any of its
and their respective successors and assigns, asses, employee benefit plans or
funds, and any of its and their respective past, present and/or future
investors, employees, legal representatives, underwriters, successors and
assign, whether acting on behalf of Sabre or in their individual capacities
(the “Sabre Releasees”), from any and all claims, actions, causes of action,
rights, demands, debts, damages, grievances, or any action of whatever nature,
known or unknown, that de Poincy may now have or has ever had against Sabre
Releasees arising from or in any way connected with the employment relationship
between the parties, any

acknowledges that the foregoing agreements of Sabre Releasees include
consideration for the settlement, waiver, release, and discharge of any and all

acknowledges that he may later discover facts different from or in addition to
what he now knows to be true for matters released herein; notwithstanding any
such different or additional facts, de Poincy agrees that this Release will
remain in full force and effect.  De
Poincy agrees that he will not institute any action or actions, causes of
action (in law or equity), suits, debts, liens, claims, demands, now known or
unknown and later discovered, suspected or unsuspected, fixed or contingent
which de Poincy may have or claim to have in state or federal court, or with
any state, federal or local government agency or with any administrative or
advisory body arising from or attributable to any or all of the Sabre
Releasees, including but not limited to, all employee benefit plans sponsored
or administered by Sabre.  De Poincy also
agrees that if a claim is prosecuted in de Poincy’s name before any court or
administrative agency, de Poincy waives and agrees not to take any award of
money or other damages from such suit. 
De Poincy also agrees that if a claim is prosecuted in de Poincy’s name,
de Poincy will immediately request, in writing, that the claim on de Poincy’s
behalf be withdrawn.  De Poincy also
agrees that he is waiving on behalf of de Poincy and de Poincy’s attorneys all

must be public pursuant to law.

this Agreement to anyone other than de Poincy’s immediate family, attorney, tax
consultant, or as may be required by other authority of law.  Any party to whom de Poincy discloses the
contents of this Agreement shall be specifically instructed not to disclose these
terms.  If de Poincy violates the terms
of this Confidentiality provision, such violation shall be considered a
material breach of this Agreement requiring de Poincy to repay the amount of
compensation outlined in Paragraph 3 of this Agreement.

 

9.             Choice of Law.  This Agreement is entered into in Texas and
shall be interpreted and enforced under Texas law.

 

10.          Waiver.  One party’s waiver of a breach of any

waiver or waiver of any other provision, obligation, right, or privilege.

Amendment.  This
Agreement cannot be changed or modified orally and may only be supplemented,
amended, or revised in a writing signed by both parties.
