FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF NORTHERN CALIFORNIA

EXECUTIVE SUPPLEMENTAL COMPENSATION

AGREEMENT

          Effective
this 1st day of January, 2007, this EXECUTIVE SUPPLEMENTAL
COMPENSATION AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is adopted by and between FIRST NATIONAL
BANK OF NORTHERN CALIFORNIA (“Bank”), a bank located in South San Francisco,
California, and DAVID
A. CURTIS (“Executive”), a member of a select group of management and highly
compensated employees of the Bank. The purpose of this Agreement is to further
the growth and development of the Bank by providing Executive with supplemental
retirement income, and thereby encourage Executive’s productive efforts on
behalf of the Bank and the Bank’s shareholders, and to align the interests of
the Executive and those shareholders.  

          It
is intended that the Agreement be “unfunded” for purposes of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) and not be
construed to provide income to the participant or beneficiary under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), particularly Section
409A of the Code and guidance or regulations issued thereunder, prior to actual
receipt of benefits.

(2)

	
Requiring Executive to report to a position which is
 at a lower level than the highest level to which Executive reported within
 the six (6) months prior to the Change in Control;

“Separation from Service” shall mean Executive’s
 employment with Bank has terminated and the Executive is not performing
 significant services for the Bank. At all times, this definition of Separation
 from Service shall be applied consistent with Section 409A of the Internal
 Revenue Code. For purposes of this Agreement, whether a termination of
 employment or service has occurred is determined based on whether the facts
 and circumstances indicate that the Bank and Executive reasonably anticipated
 that no further services would be performed after a certain date or that the
 level of bona fide services the Executive would perform after such date
 (whether as an Executive or as an independent contractor) would permanently
 decrease to no more than twenty percent (20%) of the average level of bona
 fide services performed (whether as an Executive or an independent
 contractor) over the immediately preceding thirty-six (36) month period (or
 the full period of services to the Bank if the Executive has been providing
 services to the Bank less than 36 months). Facts and circumstances to be
 considered in making this determination include, but are not limited to,
 whether the Executive continues to be treated as an Executive for other
 purposes (such as continuation of salary and participation in Executive
 benefit programs), whether similarly situated service providers have been
 treated consistently, and whether the Executive is permitted, and
 realistically available, to perform services for other service recipients in
 the same line of business. An Executive will be presumed not to have
 separated from service where the level of bona fide services performed
 continues at a level that is fifty percent (50%) or more of the average level
 of service performed by the Executive during the immediately preceding
 thirty-six (36) month period.

	
 

	
 

	
1.16

	
“Termination for Cause”
 has that meaning set forth in Article 5.

 the Plan Administrator. 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. The Executive shall have the right to change a
 Beneficiary by completing, signing and otherwise complying with the terms of
 the Beneficiary Designation Form and the Plan Administrator’s rules and
 procedures, as in effect from time to time. Upon the acceptance by the Plan
 Administrator of a new Beneficiary Designation Form, all Beneficiary
 designations previously filed shall be cancelled. The Plan Administrator
 shall be entitled to rely on the last Beneficiary Designation Form filed by
 the Executive and accepted by the Plan Administrator prior to the Executive’s
 death.

	
 

	
 

	
4.3

	
Acknowledgment. No designation or
 change in designation of a Beneficiary shall be effective until received,
 accepted and acknowledged in writing by the Plan Administrator or its
 designated agent.

9

	
 

	
 

	
4.4

	
No Beneficiary Designation.  If the Executive dies without a valid
  beneficiary designation, or if all designated Beneficiaries predecease the
  Executive, then the Executive’s spouse shall be the designated Beneficiary.  If the Executive has no surviving spouse,
  the benefits shall be made to the personal representative of the Executive’s
  estate.

	
 

	
 

	
4.5

	
Facility of Distribution.  If the Plan Administrator determines in
  its discretion that a benefit is to be distributed to a minor, to a person
  declared incompetent, or to a person incapable of handling the disposition of
  that person’s property, the Plan Administrator may direct distribution of
  such benefit to the guardian, legal representative or person having the care
  or custody of such minor, incompetent person or incapable person.  The Plan Administrator may require proof
  of incompetence, minority or guardianship as it may deem appropriate prior to
  distribution of the benefit.  Any
  distribution of a benefit shall be a distribution for the account of the
  Executive and the Executive’s Beneficiary, as the case may be, and shall be a
  complete discharge of any liability under the Agreement for such distribution
  amount.

Arbitration.  All claims, disputes and other matters in
  question arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach or
  interpretation thereof, other than those matters which are to be determined
  by the Bank in its sole and absolute discretion, shall be resolved by binding
  arbitration before a representative member, selected by the mutual agreement
  of the parties, of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc.
  (“JAMS”), at the location nearest the parties.  In the event JAMS is unable or unwilling to conduct the
  arbitration provided for under the terms of this paragraph, or has
  discontinued its business, the parties agree that a representative member,
  selected by the mutual agreement of the parties of the American Arbitration
  Association (“AAA”) at the location nearest the parties, shall conduct the
  binding arbitration referred to in this paragraph.  Notice of the demand for arbitration shall be filed in writing

  demand for arbitration be made after the date when institution of legal or
  equitable proceedings based on such claim, dispute or other matter in
  question would be barred by the applicable statute of limitations.  The arbitration shall be subject to such
  rules of procedure used or established by JAMS, or if there are none, the
  rules of procedure used or established by AAA.  Any award rendered by JAMS or AAA shall be final and binding
  upon the parties, and as applicable, their respective heirs, beneficiaries,
  legal representatives, agents, successors and assigns, and may be entered in
  any court having jurisdiction thereof.
  The obligation of the parties to arbitrate pursuant to this clause
  shall be specifically enforceable in accordance with, and shall be conducted
  consistently with, the provisions of California Law and Civil Procedure.  Any arbitration hereunder shall be
  conducted at the location nearest the parties, unless otherwise agreed to by
  the parties.

Attorneys’ Fees.  In the event of any arbitration or
  litigation concerning any controversy, claim or dispute between the parties
  hereto, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach hereof, or

  arbitration fees incurred; (b) the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover
  from the other party reasonable expenses, attorneys’ fees and costs incurred
  in the enforcement or collection of any judgment or award rendered. The
  “prevailing party” means any party (one party or both parties, as the case

  payments from the other, not necessarily the party in whose favor a judgment
  is rendered.

	
 

	
 

	
6.9

	
Trust.  Notwithstanding the unfunded nature of this Agreement, the Bank
  and the Executive acknowledge and agree that, in the event of a Change in
  Control, upon request of the Executive, or in the Bank’s discretion if the
  Executive does not so request and the Bank nonetheless deems it appropriate,
  the Bank may establish, not later than the effective date of the Change in
  Control, a Rabbi Trust or multiple Rabbi Trusts (the “Trust” or “Trusts”)
  upon such terms and conditions as the Bank, in its sole discretion, deems
  appropriate and in compliance with applicable provisions of the Code, in
  order to permit the Bank to make contributions and/or transfer assets to the
  Trust or Trusts to discharge its obligations pursuant to this Agreement.  The principal of the Trust or Trusts and
  any earnings thereon shall be held separate and apart from other funds of the
  Bank to be used exclusively for discharge of the Bank’s obligations pursuant
  to this Agreement and shall continue to be subject to the claims of the
  Bank’s general creditors until paid to the Executive in such manner and at
  such times as specified in this Agreement.

  The Plan Administrator shall respond to such claimant within 90 days

  period by an additional 90 days by notifying the claimant in writing, prior
  to the end of the initial 90-day period, that an additional period is
  required.  The notice of extension
  must set forth the special circumstances and the date by which the Plan
  Administrator expects to render its decision.

7.2.3

	
Considerations on Review.  In considering the review, the Plan
  Administrator shall take into account all materials and information the
  claimant submits relating to the claim, without regard to whether such
  information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination.

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
7.2.4

	
Timing of Plan Administrator Response.  The Plan Administrator shall respond in
  writing to such claimant within 60 days after receiving the request for
  review.  If the Plan Administrator

Article 8
Amendments and Termination

This Agreement may be amended or terminated only by a
written agreement signed by the Bank and the Executive. Provided, however, if
the Board determines in good faith that the Executive is no longer a member of
a select group of management or highly compensated employees, as that phrase
applies to ERISA, for reasons other than death, Disability, retirement, or
following a Change in Control, the Bank may terminate this Agreement.  Additionally, the Bank may also amend this Agreement to
conform to
written directives to the Bank from its banking regulators.  

Article 9

Binding Effect.  This Agreement shall bind the Executive
  and the Bank, and their beneficiaries, survivors, executors, administrators
  and transferees.

	
 

	
 

	
9.2

	
No Guarantee of
  Employment.  This
  Agreement is not a contract for employment.
  It does not give the Executive the right to remain as an employee of
  the Bank, nor does it interfere with the Bank’s right to discharge the
  Executive.  It also does not require
  the Executive to remain an employee nor interfere with the Executive’s right
  to terminate employment at any time.

	
 

	
 

	
9.3

	
Non-Transferability.  Benefits under this Agreement cannot be
  sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, attached or encumbered in any manner.

	
 

	
 

	
9.4

	
Tax Withholding.  The Bank shall withhold any taxes that are
  required to be withheld  from the
  benefits provided under this Agreement.
  The Executive acknowledges that the Bank’s sole liability regarding
  taxes is to forward any amounts withheld to the appropriate taxing
  authority(ies). 

	
 

	
 

	
9.5

	
Applicable Law.  The Agreement and all rights hereunder
  shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, except to the
  extent preempted by the laws of the United States of America.

	
 

	
 

	
9.6

	
Unfunded Arrangement.  The Executive and Beneficiary are general
  unsecured creditors of the Bank for the distribution of benefits under this
  Agreement.  The benefits represent the
  mere promise by the Bank to distribute such benefits.  The rights to benefits are not subject in
  any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge,
  encumbrance, attachment, or garnishment by creditors.  Any insurance on the Executive’s life or
  other informal funding asset is a general asset of the Bank to which the
  Executive and Beneficiary have no preferred or secured claim.

14

	
 

	
 

	
9.7

	
Reorganization.  The Bank shall not merge or
  consolidate into or with another bank, or reorganize, or sell substantially
  all of its assets to another bank, firm, or person unless such succeeding or
  continuing bank, firm, or person agrees to assume and discharge the
  obligations of the Bank under this Agreement.  Upon the occurrence of such event, the term “Bank” as used in
  this Agreement shall be deemed to refer to the successor or survivor bank.

	
 

	
 

	
9.8

	
Entire Agreement.
  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the
  Bank and the Executive as to the subject matter hereof.  No rights are granted to the Executive by
  virtue of this Agreement other than those specifically set forth herein.

	
 

	
 

	
9.9

	
Interpretation.  Wherever
  the fulfillment of the intent and purpose of this Agreement requires, and the
  context will permit, the use of the masculine gender includes the feminine
  and use of the singular includes the plural.

	
 

	
 

	
9.10

	
Alternative Action.  In the event it shall become impossible
  for the Bank or the Plan Administrator to perform any act required by this
  Agreement, the Bank or Plan Administrator may in its discretion perform such
  alternative act as most nearly carries out the intent and purpose of this
  Agreement and is in the best interests of the Bank.

	
 

	
 

	
9.11

	
Headings.  Article
  and section headings are for convenient reference only and shall not control
  or affect the meaning or construction of any of its provisions.

	
 

	
 

	
9.12

	
Validity.  In case any provision of this Agreement
  shall be illegal or invalid for any reason, said illegality or invalidity
  shall not affect the remaining parts hereof, but this Agreement shall be
  construed and enforced as if such illegal and invalid provision has never
  been inserted herein.

Opportunity to Consult with Independent Advisors.  The Executive acknowledges that he has
  been afforded the opportunity to consult with independent advisors of his
  choosing including, without limitation, accountants or tax advisors and
  counsel regarding both the benefits granted to him under the terms of this
  Agreement and the (i) terms and conditions which may affect the Executive’s
  right to these benefits and (ii) personal tax effects of such benefits
  including, without limitation, the effects of any federal or state taxes,
  Section 280G of the Code, Section 409A of the Code and guidance or

  whatsoever related to such benefits, which in any of the foregoing instances
  the Executive acknowledges and agrees shall be the sole responsibility of the
  Executive notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Agreement.  The Executive further acknowledges and
  agrees that the Bank shall have no liability whatsoever related to any such
  personal tax effects or other personal costs, expenses, or liabilities
  applicable to the Executive and further specifically waives any right for
