this Amendment, the same shall be deemed eliminated as between Borrower and the
other parties hereto as of the date hereof. The execution, delivery and
effectiveness of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of any right,

Termination of Employment.

General. In addition to the termination of the employment of the EMPLOYEE upon
the expiration of the TERM, the employment of the EMPLOYEE shall terminate at
any other time during the TERM (i) at the option of the BANK upon the delivery
by the BANK of written notice of termination to the EMPLOYEE, or (ii) at the
option of the EMPLOYEE upon delivery by the EMPLOYEE of written notice of
termination to the BANK if, in connection with a CHANGE IN CONTROL (hereinafter
defined), the present capacity or circumstances in which the EMPLOYEE is
employed are materially adversely changed (including, but not limited to, a
material reduction in responsibilities or authority or the assignment of duties
or responsibilities substantially inconsistent with those normally associated
with the EMPLOYEE's position described in Section 2(a) of this AGREEMENT, change
of title or removal as a director of the BANK or the HOLDING COMPANY or the
requirement that the EMPLOYEE regularly perform his principal executive
functions more than thirty-five (35) miles from his primary office as of the
date of the commencement of the TERM of this AGREEMENT) or the EMPLOYEE's
compensation or other benefits provided under this AGREEMENT are reduced, unless
the benefit reductions are part of a Company-wide reduction. For purposes of
this AGREEMENT, an event shall be deemed to have occurred "in connection with a
CHANGE OF CONTROL" if such event occurs within one year before or after a CHANGE
OF CONTROL. The following subsections (I), (II) and (III) of this Section 4(a)
shall govern the obligations of the BANK to the EMPLOYEE upon the occurrence of
the events described in such subparagraphs:

      (I) Termination for JUST CAUSE. In the event that the BANK terminates the
employment of the EMPLOYEE during the TERM because of the EMPLOYEE's personal
dishonesty, incompetence, willful misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty involving
personal profit, intentional failure or refusal to perform the duties and
responsibilities assigned in this AGREEMENT, willful violation of any law, rule,
regulation or final cease-and-desist order (other than traffic violations or
other minor offenses), conviction of a felony or for fraud or embezzlement, or
material breach of any provision of this AGREEMENT ("JUST CAUSE"), the EMPLOYEE
shall not receive, and shall have no right to receive, any compensation or other
benefits for any period after such termination.

      (II) Termination in Connection with CHANGE OF CONTROL. In the event that
the employment of the EMPLOYEE is terminated by the BANK in connection with a
CHANGE OF CONTROL for any reason other than JUST CAUSE or is terminated by the
EMPLOYEE as provided in Section 4(a)(ii) above, then the following shall occur:

            (A) The BANK shall promptly pay to the EMPLOYEE or to his
beneficiaries, dependents or estate an amount equal to the EMPLOYEE's "base
amount" as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder ( "SECTION 280G");

            (B) The EMPLOYEE, his dependents, beneficiaries and estate shall
continue to be covered at the BANK's expense under all health, life, disability
and other benefit plans of the BANK in which the EMPLOYEE was a participant
prior to the effective date of the termination of his employment as if the
EMPLOYEE were still employed under this AGREEMENT until the earlier of the
expiration of the TERM or the date on which the EMPLOYEE is included in another
employer's benefit plans as a full-time employee; and

            (C) The EMPLOYEE shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any
payment provided for in this AGREEMENT by seeking other employment or otherwise,
nor shall any amounts received from other employment or otherwise by the
EMPLOYEE offset in any manner the obligations of the BANK hereunder, except as
specifically stated in subparagraph (B) above.

                                                                             29.
<PAGE>

In the event that the value of the payments pursuant to this subsection (II),
when combined with the value of other payments attributable to the same CHANGE
OF CONTROL, would result in the imposition of a penalty tax pursuant to SECTION
280G, such payments shall be reduced to the maximum amount which may be paid
under SECTION 280G without exceeding such limits. This reduction will be applied
through the following procedure:

            (i)   First, at least 30 days before the payment is due under this
            subsection (II), the BANK will apprise the EMPLOYEE of the value of
            each of the benefits payable because of the CHANGE OF CONTROL and
            the maximum amount which may be paid under SECTION 280G without
            exceeding such limits and afford the EMPLOYEE an opportunity to
            select the benefit (or portion of the benefit) to be reduced.

            (ii)  Second, if, before the end of that 30 day period, the EMPLOYEE
            apprises the BANK in writing of the benefit or benefits to be
            reduced (and the amount of each reduction), the EMPLOYEE'S election
            will be implemented and, subject to the next subparagraph, the
            adjusted payment made promptly.

If, before the end of that 30 day period, the EMPLOYEE does not apprise the BANK
of the benefit or benefits to be reduced or if the amount of the reductions the
EMPLOYEE specifies does not reduce the value of all benefits payable because of
the CHANGE OF CONTROL to the maximum amount that may be paid under SECTION 280G
without exceeding such limits, the BANK will reduce the amount payable under
this agreement by an amount needed to ensure that the limits imposed under
SECTION 280G are not exceeded.

      (III) Termination not in Connection with CHANGE OF CONTROL. In the event
that the employment of the EMPLOYEE is terminated before the expiration of the
TERM not for JUST CAUSE and not in connection with a CHANGE OF CONTROL, then the
following shall occur:

            (A) The BANK shall be obligated to continue to pay on a monthly
basis, until the expiration of the TERM, to the EMPLOYEE, his designated
beneficiaries or his estate, the annual salary in effect at the time of
termination pursuant to Section 3 above, plus a cash bonus equal to the cash
bonus, if any, paid to the EMPLOYEE in the twelve month period prior to the
termination of employment;

            (B) The BANK shall continue to provide to the EMPLOYEE, at the
BANK's expense, health, life, disability and other benefits substantially equal
to those being provided to the EMPLOYEE at the date of termination of his
employment until the earliest to occur of the expiration of the TERM or the date
on which the EMPLOYEE is included in another employer's benefit plans as a
full-time employee; and

            (C) The EMPLOYEE shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any
payment provided for in this AGREEMENT by seeking other employment or otherwise,
nor shall any amounts received from other employment or otherwise by the
EMPLOYEE offset in any manner the obligations of the BANK hereunder, except as
specifically stated in subparagraph B above.

Death of the EMPLOYEE. The TERM shall automatically expire upon the death of the
EMPLOYEE, unless the employment of the EMPLOYEE has been terminated prior to
EMPLOYEE'S death pursuant to Section 4(a) of this AGREEMENT. In the event of
such death, the EMPLOYEE's estate shall be entitled to receive the compensation
due the EMPLOYEE through the last day of the calendar month in which the death
occurred, except as otherwise specified herein.

                                                                             30.

"Golden Parachute" Provision. Any payments made to the EMPLOYEE pursuant to this
AGREEMENT, or otherwise, are subject to and conditioned upon their compliance
with 12 U.S.C. Section 1828(k) and FDIC regulation 12 C.F.R. Part 359, Golden
Parachute and Indemnification Payments.

directors of the BANK or the HOLDING COMPANY; (iii) during any period of up to
two consecutive years, individuals who at the beginning of such period
constitute the Board of Directors of the BANK or the HOLDING COMPANY cease for
any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof; provided, however, that
any individual whose election or nomination for election as a member of the
Board of Directors of the BANK or the HOLDING COMPANY was approved by a vote of
at least two-thirds of the directors then in office shall be considered to have
continued to be a member of the Board of Directors of the BANK or the HOLDING
COMPANY; or (iv) the acquisition by any person or entity of "conclusive control"
of the BANK within the meaning of 12 C.F.R. Section 574.4(a), or the acquisition

574.4(c). For purposes of this paragraph, the term "person" refers to an
individual or corporation, partnership, trust, association or other
organization, but does not include the EMPLOYEE and any person or persons with
whom the EMPLOYEE is "acting in concert" within the meaning of 12 C.F.R. Part
574.

AGREEMENT, the obligations of the BANK to the EMPLOYEE shall be as follows in
the event of the following circumstances:

If the EMPLOYEE is suspended and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in
the conduct of the BANK's affairs by a notice served under section 8(e)(3) or
8(g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (hereinafter referred to as the
"FDIA"), the BANK's obligations under this AGREEMENT shall be suspended as of
the date of service of such notice, unless stayed by appropriate proceedings. If
the charges in the notice are dismissed, the BANK shall pay the EMPLOYEE all or
part of the compensation withheld while the obligations in this AGREEMENT were
suspended and reinstate, in whole or in part, any of the obligations that were
suspended;

If the EMPLOYEE is removed and/or permanently prohibited from participating in
the conduct of the BANK's affairs by an order issued under Section 8(e)(4) or
8(g)(1) of the FDIA, all obligations of the BANK under this AGREEMENT shall
terminate as of the effective date of such order; provided, however, that vested
rights of the EMPLOYEE shall not be affected by such termination;

If the BANK is in default, as defined in section 3(x)(1) of the FDIA, all
obligations under this AGREEMENT shall terminate as of the date of default;
provided, however, that vested rights of the EMPLOYEE shall not be affected;

All obligations under this AGREEMENT shall be terminated, except to the extent
of a determination that the continuation of this AGREEMENT is necessary for the
continued operation of the BANK, (i) by the Director of the Office of Thrift
Supervision (hereinafter referred to as the "OTS"), or his or her designee, at
the time that the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation enters into an agreement
to provide assistance to or on behalf of the BANK under the authority contained
in Section 13(c) of the FDIA or (ii) by the Director of the OTS, or his or her
designee, at any time the Director of the OTS approves a supervisory merger to
resolve problems related to the operation of the BANK or when the BANK is
determined by the Director of the OTS to be in an unsafe or unsound condition;
provided, however that no vested rights of the EMPLOYEE shall not be affected by
any such termination; and

                                                                             31.

The provisions of this Section 5 are governed by the requirements of 12 C.F.R.
Section 563.39(b) and in the event that any statements in this Section 5 are
inconsistent with 12 C.F.R. Section 563.39(b), the provisions of 12 C.F.R.
Section 563.39(b) shall be controlling.

Consolidation, Merger or Sale of Assets. Nothing in this AGREEMENT shall
preclude the BANK or the HOLDING COMPANY from consolidating with, merging into,
or transferring all, or substantially all, of their assets to another
corporation that assumes all of their obligations and undertakings hereunder.
Upon such a consolidation, merger or transfer of assets, the term "BANK" as used
herein, shall mean such other corporation or entity, and this AGREEMENT shall
continue in full force and effect.

Confidential Information. The EMPLOYEE acknowledges that during his employment
he will learn and have access to confidential information regarding the BANK and
its customers and businesses. The EMPLOYEE agrees and covenants not to disclose
or use for his own benefit, or the benefit of any other person or entity, any

or use or such information is otherwise legally in the public domain. The
EMPLOYEE shall not knowingly disclose or reveal to any unauthorized person any
confidential information relating to the BANK, its subsidiaries, or affiliates,
or to any of the businesses operated by them, and the EMPLOYEE confirms that
such information constitutes the exclusive property of the BANK. The EMPLOYEE
shall not otherwise knowingly act or conduct himself to the material detriment
of the BANK, its subsidiaries, or affiliates or in a manner which is inimical or
contrary to the interests of the BANK.

Non-assignability. Neither this AGREEMENT nor any right or interest hereunder
shall be assignable by the EMPLOYEE, his beneficiaries or legal representatives
without the BANK's prior written consent; provided, however, that nothing in
this Section 8 shall preclude the EMPLOYEE from designating a beneficiary to
receive any benefits payable hereunder upon his death or the executors,
administrators or other legal representatives of the EMPLOYEE or his estate from
assigning any rights hereunder to the person or persons entitled thereto.

No Attachment. Except as required by law, no right to receive payment under this
AGREEMENT shall be subject to anticipation, commutation, alienation, sale,

attachment, levy, or similar process of assignment by operation of law, and any
attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to effect any such action shall be null, void
and of no effect.

Waiver. No term or condition of this AGREEMENT shall be deemed to have been
waived, nor shall there be an estoppel against the enforcement of any provision
of this AGREEMENT, except by written instrument of the party charged with such
waiver or estoppel. No such written waiver shall be deemed a continuing waiver,
unless specifically stated therein, and each waiver shall operate only as to the
specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term
or condition for the future or as to any act other than the act specifically
waived.

Severability. If, for any reason, any provision of this AGREEMENT is held
invalid, such invalidity shall not affect the other provisions of this AGREEMENT
not held so invalid, and each such other provision shall, to the full extent
consistent with applicable law, continue in full force and effect. If this
AGREEMENT is held invalid or cannot be enforced, then any prior AGREEMENT
between the BANK (or any predecessor thereof) and the EMPLOYEE shall be deemed
reinstated to the full extent permitted by law, as if this AGREEMENT had not
been executed.

Headings. The headings of the paragraphs herein are included solely for
convenience of reference and shall not control the meaning or interpretation of
