             -------------------
BANCORP,  INC.  ("Company") 1999 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan").  The purpose of
the  Plan  is to  attract  and  retain  qualified  personnel  for  positions  of
substantial  responsibility  and to provide  additional  incentive  to officers,

the business.  The Plan is intended to provide for the grant of "Incentive Stock
Options,"  within the meaning of Section  422 of the  Internal  Revenue  Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code") and Non-Incentive  Stock Options,  options that do
not so qualify.  The provisions of the Plan relating to Incentive  Stock Options
shall be interpreted to conform to the requirements of Section 422 of the Code.

                  (b) Powers of the Committee.  The Committee is authorized (but
only to the extent not  contrary  to the  express  provisions  of the Plan or to
resolutions adopted by the Board) to interpret the Plan, to prescribe, amend and
rescind  rules and  regulations  relating to the Plan, to determine the form and
content of Awards to be issued  under the Plan and to make other  determinations
necessary or advisable for the  administration  of the Plan,  and shall have and

actions of the Committee.

                  (c)      Effect  of  Committee's   Decision.  All   decisions,
determinations  and   interpretations  of  the  Committee  shall  be  final  and
conclusive on all persons affected thereby.

         6.       Eligibility for Awards and Limitations.
                  --------------------------------------

                  (a) The  Committee  shall  from  time to  time  determine  the
officers,  Directors,  Directors Emeritus, employees and other persons who shall
be  granted  Awards  under the Plan,  the number of Awards to be granted to each
such persons, and whether Awards granted to each such Participant under the Plan
shall be Incentive and/or Non-Incentive Stock Options. In selecting Participants
and in  determining  the number of Shares of Common  Stock to be granted to each
such  Participant,  the  Committee  may  consider  the  nature  of the prior and
anticipated  future  services  rendered  by each  such  Participant,  each  such
Participant's  current and potential  contribution to the Company and such other
factors  as  the  Committee  may,  in  its  sole   discretion,   deem  relevant.
Participants  who have been  granted an Award may,  if  otherwise  eligible,  be
granted additional Awards.

                  (b) The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date
the Option is  granted)  of the Shares  with  respect to which  Incentive  Stock
Options are  exercisable for the first time by each Employee during any calendar
year (under all Incentive  Stock Option plans,  as defined in Section 422 of the
Code,  of the  Company or any  present  or future  Parent or  Subsidiary  of the
Company) shall not exceed $100,000. Notwithstanding the prior provisions of this
Section  6,  the  Committee  may  grant  Options  in  excess  of  the  foregoing
limitations,  provided said Options shall be clearly and specifically designated
as not being Incentive Stock Options.

                  (c) In no event  shall  Shares  subject to Options  granted to
non-employee  Directors in the aggregate under this Plan exceed more than 30% of
the total number of Shares authorized for delivery

                                       -4-
<PAGE>

under this Plan  pursuant to Section 3 herein or more than 5% to any  individual
non-employee  Director.  In no event shall Shares subject to Options  granted to
any Employee  exceed more than 25% of the total number of Shares  authorized for
delivery under the Plan.

         7. Term of the Plan.  The Plan shall  continue  in effect for a term of
            ----------------
ten (10) years from the Effective  Date,  unless sooner  terminated  pursuant to
Section 18  hereof.  No Option  shall be  granted  under the Plan after ten (10)
years from the Effective Date.

         8. Terms and  Conditions of Incentive  Stock Options.  Incentive  Stock
            -------------------------------------------------
Options may be granted only to  Participants  who are Employees.  Each Incentive
Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall be evidenced by an instrument in
such form as the Committee shall from time to time approve. Each Incentive Stock
Option  granted  pursuant to the Plan shall comply with,  and be subject to, the
following terms and conditions:

                  (a)      Option Price.

                           (i)      The price per Share at which each  Incentive
Stock Option granted by the Committee under the Plan may be exercised shall not,
as to any particular  Incentive Stock Option, be less than the Fair Market Value
of the Common Stock on the date that such Incentive Stock Option is granted.

                           (ii)     In the case of an Employee  who owns  Common
Stock  representing more than ten percent (10%) of the outstanding  Common Stock
at the time the Incentive  Stock Option is granted,  the Incentive  Stock Option
exercise  price shall not be less than one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the
Fair  Market  Value of the  Common  Stock on the date that the  Incentive  Stock
Option is granted.

                  (b)  Payment.  Full  payment  for each  Share of Common  Stock
purchased upon the exercise of any Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan
shall be made at the time of exercise of each such  Incentive  Stock  Option and
shall be paid in cash (in United States Dollars),  Common Stock or a combination
of cash and Common Stock.  Common Stock  utilized in full or partial  payment of
the  exercise  price  shall be  valued at the Fair  Market  Value at the date of
exercise.  The Company shall accept full or partial payment in Common Stock only
to the extent  permitted by  applicable  law. No Shares of Common Stock shall be
issued  until full  payment has been  received by the  Company,  and no Optionee
shall have any of the rights of a  stockholder  of the Company  until  Shares of
Common Stock are issued to the Optionee.

                  (c) Term of Incentive Stock Option. The term of exercisability
of each Incentive  Stock Option  granted  pursuant to the Plan shall be not more
than ten (10) years from the date each such  Incentive  Stock Option is granted,
provided that in the case of an Employee who owns stock  representing  more than
ten percent  (10%) of the Common  Stock  outstanding  at the time the  Incentive
Stock  Option is granted,  the term of  exercisability  of the  Incentive  Stock
Option shall not exceed five (5) years.

                  (d)  Exercise  Generally.  Except  as  otherwise  provided  in
Section  10 hereof,  no  Incentive  Stock  Option  may be  exercised  unless the
Optionee  shall have been in the employ of the  Company at all times  during the
period  beginning with the date of grant of any such Incentive  Stock Option and
ending on the date three (3) months  prior to the date of  exercise  of any such
Incentive Stock Option. The Committee may impose additional  conditions upon the
right of an Optionee to exercise any Incentive  Stock Option  granted  hereunder
which are not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan or the

                                       -5-
<PAGE>

requirements for qualification as an Incentive Stock Option. Except as otherwise
provided by the terms of the Plan or by action of the  Committee  at the time of
the grant of the Options,  the Options will be first  exercisable at the rate of
20% on the one year anniversary of the date of grant and 20% annually thereafter
during such periods of service as an Employee, Director or Director Emeritus.

                  (e) Cashless  Exercise.  Subject to vesting  requirements,  if
applicable,  an Optionee who has held an Incentive Stock Option for at least six
months may engage in the  "cashless  exercise"  of the  Option.  Upon a cashless
exercise,  an Optionee  gives the Company  written notice of the exercise of the
Option together with an order to a registered  broker-dealer or equivalent third
party,  to sell part or all of the Optioned  Stock and to deliver  enough of the
proceeds  to the  Company to pay the Option  exercise  price and any  applicable
withholding  taxes.  If the Optionee does not sell the Optioned  Stock through a
registered  broker-dealer  or equivalent  third party, the Optionee can give the
Company  written  notice of the  exercise  of the  Option  and the  third  party
purchaser of the  Optioned  Stock shall pay the Option  exercise  price plus any
applicable withholding taxes to the Company.

                  (f)   Transferability.   An  Incentive  Stock  Option  granted
pursuant to the Plan shall be exercised  during an  Optionee's  lifetime only by
the Optionee to whom it was granted and shall not be assignable or  transferable
otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

         9.  Terms  and  Conditions  of   Non-Incentive   Stock  Options.   Each
             -----------------------------------------------------------
Non-Incentive Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall be evidenced by an
instrument in such form as the Committee  shall from time to time approve.  Each
Non-Incentive Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall comply with and be
subject to the following terms and conditions.

                  (a) Options  Granted to Directors.  Subject to the limitations
of Section  6(c),  Non-  Incentive  Stock  Options to purchase  10,800 shares of
Common  Stock will be granted to each  Director who is not an Employee as of the
Effective  Date,  at an exercise  price  equal to the Fair  Market  Value of the
Common Stock on such date of grant. The Options will be first exercisable at the
rate of 20% on the one year  anniversary  of the Effective Date and 20% annually
thereafter  during such  periods of service as a Director or Director  Emeritus.
Upon the death or Disability of the Director or Director  Emeritus,  such Option
shall be deemed immediately 100% exercisable.  Such Options shall continue to be
exercisable for a period of ten years following the date of grant without regard
to the continued  services of such Director as a Director or Director  Emeritus.
In the event of the  Optionee's  death,  such  Options may be  exercised  by the
personal  representative  of his  estate or person or persons to whom his rights
under  such  Option  shall  have  passed by will or by the laws of  descent  and
distribution.  Options may be granted to newly appointed or elected non-employee
Directors  within the sole  discretion of the Committee.  The exercise price per
Share of such  Options  granted  shall be equal to the Fair Market  Value of the
Common Stock at the time such Options are  granted.  Provided  that such Plan is
approved by a vote of the stockholders of the Company at a stockholder's meeting
held more than one year from the Savings  Bank's  conversion to stock form,  all
outstanding Awards shall become immediately exercisable in the event of a Change
in Control of the Savings Bank or the Company. Unless otherwise inapplicable, or
inconsistent with the provisions of this paragraph, the Options to be granted to
Directors hereunder shall be subject to all other provisions of this Plan.

                                       -6-
<PAGE>

                  (b) Option Price. The exercise price per Share of Common Stock
for each  Non-Incentive  Stock Option  granted  pursuant to the Plan shall be at
such price as the  Committee  may  determine in its sole  discretion,  but in no
event less than the Fair Market  Value of such Common Stock on the date of grant
as determined by the Committee in good faith.

                  (c)  Payment.  Full  payment  for each  Share of Common  Stock
purchased upon the exercise of any Non-Incentive  Stock Option granted under the
Plan  shall be made at the time of  exercise  of each such  Non-Incentive  Stock
Option and shall be paid in cash (in United States  Dollars),  Common Stock or a
combination  of cash and Common Stock.  Common Stock utilized in full or partial
payment of the  exercise  price shall be valued at its Fair Market  Value at the
date of exercise.  The Company  shall  accept full or partial  payment in Common
Stock only to the extent  permitted by applicable law. No Shares of Common Stock
shall be issued  until full  payment  has been  received  by the  Company and no
Optionee  shall have any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company until the
Shares of Common Stock are issued to the Optionee.

                  (d) Term.  The term of  exercisability  of each  Non-Incentive
Stock Option granted  pursuant to the Plan shall be not more than ten (10) years
from the date each such Non-Incentive Stock Option is granted.

                  (e) Exercise  Generally.  The Committee may impose  additional
conditions upon the right of any Participant to exercise any Non-Incentive Stock
Option granted  hereunder which is not inconsistent  with the terms of the Plan.
Except  as  otherwise  provided  by the  terms of the Plan or by  action  of the
Committee  at the time of the grant of the  Options,  the Options  will be first
exercisable at the rate of 20% on the one year  anniversary of the date of grant
and 20%  annually  thereafter  during  such  periods of service as an  Employee,
Director or Director Emeritus.

                  (f) Cashless  Exercise.  Subject to vesting  requirements,  if
applicable,  an Optionee who has held a Non-Incentive  Stock Option for at least
six months may engage in the "cashless  exercise" of the Option. Upon a cashless
exercise,  an Optionee  gives the Company  written notice of the exercise of the
Option together with an order to a registered  broker-dealer or equivalent third
party,  to sell part or all of the Optioned  Stock and to deliver  enough of the
proceeds  to the  Company to pay the Option  exercise  price and any  applicable
withholding  taxes.  If the Optionee does not sell the Optioned  Stock through a
registered  broker-dealer  or equivalent  third party, the Optionee can give the
Company  written  notice of the  exercise  of the  Option  and the  third  party
purchaser of the  Optioned  Stock shall pay the Option  exercise  price plus any
applicable withholding taxes to the Company.

                  (g)  Transferability.  Any Non-Incentive  Stock Option granted
pursuant to the Plan shall be exercised  during an  Optionee's  lifetime only by
the Optionee to whom it was granted and shall not be assignable or  transferable
otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

         10.  Effect  of  Termination  of  Employment,  Disability  or  Death on
              ------------------------------------------------------------------
              Incentive Stock Options.
              ------------------------

                  (a)   Termination  of  Employment.  In  the  event  that   any
Optionee's  employment  with the Company shall  terminate for any reason,  other
than Disability or death, all of any such Optionee's

                                       -7-
<PAGE>

Incentive Stock Options,  and all of any such  Optionee's  rights to purchase or
receive Shares of Common Stock pursuant thereto,  shall automatically  terminate
on (A) the earlier of (i) or (ii):  (i) the respective  expiration  dates of any
such Incentive Stock Options,  or (ii) the expiration of not more than three (3)
months after the date of such  termination of  employment;  or (B) at such later
date as is  determined  by the  Committee at the time of the grant of such Award
based upon the Optionee's  continuing  status as a Director or Director Emeritus
of the Savings  Bank or the Company,  but only if, and to the extent  that,  the
Optionee was entitled to exercise any such  Incentive  Stock Options at the date
of such termination of employment,  and further that such Award shall thereafter
be deemed a Non-Incentive Stock Option. In the event that a Subsidiary ceases to
be a Subsidiary of the Company,  the  employment of all of its employees who are
not immediately thereafter employees of the Company shall be deemed to terminate
upon the date such Subsidiary so ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Company.

                  (b)  Disability.  In the event that any Optionee's  employment
with the  Company  shall  terminate  as the  result  of the  Disability  of such
Optionee,  such Optionee may exercise any Incentive Stock Options granted to the
Optionee  pursuant  to the Plan at any  time  prior  to the  earlier  of (i) the
respective expiration dates of any such Incentive Stock Options or (ii) the date
which is one (1) year after the date of such termination of employment, but only
if, and to the extent  that,  the  Optionee  was  entitled to exercise  any such
Incentive Stock Options at the date of such termination of employment.

                  (c)  Death.  In the  event of the  death of an  Optionee,  any
Incentive  Stock Options granted to such Optionee may be exercised by the person
or persons to whom the Optionee's  rights under any such Incentive Stock Options
pass  by  will  or by the  laws  of  descent  and  distribution  (including  the
Optionee's estate during the period of  administration) at any time prior to the
earlier  of (i) the  respective  expiration  dates of any such  Incentive  Stock
Options or (ii) the date which is two (2) years  after the date of death of such
Optionee  but only if, and to the extent  that,  the  Optionee  was  entitled to
exercise any such Incentive Stock Options at the date of death.  For purposes of
this Section  10(c),  any  Incentive  Stock Option held by an Optionee  shall be
considered  exercisable  at the  date  of his  death  if  the  only  unsatisfied
condition  precedent to the exercisability of such Incentive Stock Option at the
date of death is the passage of a specified period of time. At the discretion of
the Committee,  upon exercise of such Options the Optionee may receive Shares or
cash or a  combination  thereof.  If cash shall be paid in lieu of Shares,  such
cash shall be equal to the  difference  between  the Fair  Market  Value of such
Shares and the exercise price of such Options on the exercise date.

                  (d) Incentive Stock Options Deemed  Exercisable.  For purposes
of Sections 10(a), 10(b) and 10(c) above, any Incentive Stock Option held by any
Optionee  shall  be  considered  exercisable  at  the  date  of  termination  of
employment if any such  Incentive  Stock Option would have been  exercisable  at
such date of termination of employment without regard to the Disability or death
of the Participant.

                  (e) Termination of Incentive  Stock Options.  Except as may be
specified by the Committee at the time of grant of an Option, to the extent that
any  Incentive  Stock  Option  granted  under  the  Plan to any  Optionee  whose
employment with the Company  terminates shall not have been exercised within the
applicable period set forth in this Section 10, any such Incentive Stock Option,
and all rights to purchase or receive Shares of Common Stock  pursuant  thereto,
as the case may be, shall terminate on the last day of the applicable period.

              ------------------------------------------------------------------
Non-Incentive  Stock Options.  The terms and conditions of  Non-Incentive  Stock
----------------------------
Options relating to the effect of the termination of an Optionee's employment or
service,  Disability  of an  Optionee  or his  death  shall  be such  terms  and
conditions as the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, determine at the time
of termination of service,  unless specifically provided for by the terms of the
Agreement at the time of grant of the award,  and provided further that any such
terms and conditions may not be inconsistent with applicable  regulations of the
Office of Thrift Supervision or other appropriate banking regulatory agency.

         12.  Withholding  Tax. The Company  shall have the right to deduct from
              ----------------
all amounts paid in cash with  respect to the  cashless  exercise of Options any
taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to such cash payments. Where a
Participant  or other  person is  entitled  to receive  Shares  pursuant  to the
exercise  of an  Option,  the  Company  shall  have  the  right to  require  the
Participant  or such  other  person to pay the  Company  the amount of any taxes
which the Company is required to withhold  with respect to such  Shares,  or, in
lieu  thereof,  to retain,  or to sell without  notice,  a number of such Shares
sufficient to cover the amount required to be withheld.

         13.  Recapitalization, Merger, Consolidation, Change in Control and
              ------------------------------------------------------------------
              Other Transactions.
              -------------------

                  (a)  Adjustment.   Subject  to  any  required  action  by  the
stockholders of the Company,  within the sole  discretion of the Committee,  the
aggregate  number of Shares of Common  Stock for which  Options  may be  granted
hereunder,  the number of Shares of Common  Stock  covered  by each  outstanding
Option,  and the  exercise  price per Share of Common Stock of each such Option,
shall all be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number
of issued and outstanding Shares of Common Stock resulting from a subdivision or
consolidation   of  Shares   (whether   by  reason  of  merger,   consolidation,
recapitalization,   reclassification,   split-up,   combination  of  shares,  or
otherwise) or the payment of a stock  dividend (but only on the Common Stock) or
any other  increase or  decrease  in the number of such  Shares of Common  Stock
effected  without the receipt or payment of  consideration by the Company (other
than Shares held by dissenting stockholders).

                  (b) Change in Control.  Provided that such Plan is approved by
a vote of the  stockholders of the Company at a stockholder's  meeting held more
than one year from the Savings Bank's  conversion to stock form, all outstanding
Awards shall become immediately  exercisable in the event of a Change in Control
of the Company, as determined by the Committee. In the event of such a Change in
Control,  the Committee and the Board of Directors  will take one or more of the
following actions to be effective as of the date of such Change in Control:

                           (i)      provide that such Options shall be  assumed,
or  equivalent  options  shall be  substituted,  ("Substitute  Options")  by the
acquiring or succeeding  corporation (or an affiliate  thereof),  provided that:
(A) any such Substitute Options exchanged for Incentive Stock Options shall meet
the  requirements  of  Section  424(a) of the Code,  and (B) the shares of stock
issuable  upon  the  exercise  of  such  Substitute   Options  shall  constitute
securities registered in accordance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
("1933  Act") or such  securities  shall be  exempt  from such  registration  in
accordance  with  Sections  3(a)(2) or  3(a)(5) of the 1933 Act,  (collectively,
"Registered Securities"), or in the alternative, if the securities issuable upon
the  exercise  of  such  Substitute  Options  shall  not  constitute  Registered
Securities,  then the Optionee will receive upon the exercise of the  Substitute
Options a cash  payment  for each  Option  surrendered  equal to the  difference
between (1) the Fair Market Value of the  consideration  to be received for each
share of Common Stock in the Change in Control transaction times the number of

                                       -9-
<PAGE>

shares  of  Common  Stock  subject  to  such  surrendered  Options,  and (2) the
aggregate exercise price of all such surrendered Options, or

                           (ii)    in the event of a transaction under the terms
of which the  holders of the  Common  Stock of the  Company  will  receive  upon
consummation  thereof a cash  payment  (the  "Merger  Price")  for each share of
Common  Stock  exchanged  in the  Change in Control  transaction,  to make or to
provide for a cash payment to the Optionees equal to the difference  between (A)
the  Merger  Price  times the number of shares of Common  Stock  subject to such
Options held by each Optionee (to the extent then  exercisable  at prices not in
excess of the Merger  Price) and (B) the  aggregate  exercise  price of all such
surrendered Options in exchange for such surrendered Options.

                  (c)  Extraordinary   Corporate  Action.   Notwithstanding  any
provisions  of the Plan to the contrary,  subject to any required  action by the
stockholders   of  the  Company,   in  the  event  of  any  Change  in  Control,
recapitalization,   merger,   consolidation,   exchange  of  Shares,   spin-off,
reorganization,   tender  offer,   partial  or  complete  liquidation  or  other
extraordinary  corporate action or event, the Committee, in its sole discretion,
shall have the power, prior or subsequent to such action or event to:

                           (i)     appropriately adjust the number of Shares  of
Common Stock  subject to each  Option,  the Option  exercise  price per Share of
Common Stock, and the  consideration to be given or received by the Company upon
the exercise of any outstanding Option;

                           (ii)    cancel any or all previously granted Options,
provided that  appropriate  consideration  is paid to the Optionee in connection
therewith; and/or

                           (iii)   make  such  other  adjustments  in connection
with  the  Plan as the  Committee,  in its  sole  discretion,  deems  necessary,
desirable,  appropriate or advisable; provided, however, that no action shall be
                                      --------
taken by the  Committee  which  would  cause  Incentive  Stock  Options  granted
pursuant to the Plan to fail to meet the requirements of Section 422 of the Code
without the consent of the Optionee.

                  (d)  Acceleration.  The Committee  shall at all times have the
power to accelerate  the exercise date of Options  previously  granted under the
Plan;  provided  that such action is not contrary to  regulations  of the OTS or
other appropriate banking regulatory agency then in effect.

                           Except  as  expressly  provided in Sections 13(a) and
13(b),  no Optionee  shall have any rights by reason of the occurrence of any of
the events described in this Section 13.

         14. Time of Granting Options.  The date of grant of an Option under the
             ------------------------
Plan  shall,  for all  purposes,  be the date on which the  Committee  makes the
determination of granting such Option. Notice of the grant of an Option shall be
given to each  individual  to whom an Option is so granted  within a  reasonable
time after the date of such grant in a form determined by the Committee.

         15.  Effective  Date. The Plan shall become  effective upon the date of
approval of the Plan by the stockholders of the Company,  subject to approval or
non-objection by the Office of Thrift Supervision,  if applicable. The Committee
may make a determination related to Awards prior to the Effective Date with such
Awards to be effective upon the date of stockholder approval of the Plan.

         16.  Approval  by   Stockholders.   The  Plan  shall  be  approved   by
              ---------------------------
stockholders  of the Company  within twelve (12) months before or after the date
the Plan is approved by the Board.

         17.  Modification  of Options.  At any time and from time to time,  the
              ------------------------
Board may  authorize  the  Committee to direct the  execution  of an  instrument
providing  for the  modification  of any  outstanding  Option,  provided no such
modification, extension or renewal shall confer on the holder of said Option any
right or benefit  which could not be conferred on the Optionee by the grant of a
new  Option  at such  time,  or shall not  materially  decrease  the  Optionee's
benefits  under the Option  without  the  consent  of the holder of the  Option,
except as otherwise permitted under Section 18 hereof.

         18.  Amendment and Termination of the Plan.
              -------------------------------------

                  (a)  Action by the  Board.  The Board may  alter,  suspend  or
discontinue  the Plan,  except that no action of the Board may  increase  (other
than as provided in Section 13 hereof) the maximum number of Shares permitted to
be  optioned  under the Plan,  materially  increase  the  benefits  accruing  to
Participants   under  the  Plan  or  materially   modify  the  requirements  for
eligibility for  participation in the Plan unless such action of the Board shall
be subject to approval or ratification by the stockholders of the Company.

                  (b)  Change  in  Applicable  Law.  Notwithstanding  any  other
provision  contained  in the Plan,  in the event of a change in any  federal  or
state law,  rule,  regulation  or policy which would make the exercise of all or
part of any  previously  granted  Option  unlawful or subject the Company to any
penalty, the Committee may restrict any such exercise without the consent of the
Optionee or other holder  thereof in order to comply with any such law,  rule or
regulation or to avoid any such penalty.

         19. Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares; Limitations on Option Exercise;
             -------------------------------------------------------------------

                  (a)  Shares  shall not be issued  with  respect  to any Option
granted  under the Plan unless the  issuance  and  delivery of such Shares shall
comply with all  relevant  provisions  of  applicable  law,  including,  without
limitation,  the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,  the rules and  regulations
promulgated   thereunder,   any  applicable   state   securities  laws  and  the
requirements of any stock exchange upon which the Shares may then be listed.

                  (b) The  inability  of the  Company  to obtain  any  necessary
authorizations,  approvals or letters of non-objection  from any regulatory body
or  authority  deemed by the  Company's  counsel to be  necessary  to the lawful
issuance and sale of any Shares issuable  hereunder shall relieve the Company of
any liability with respect to the non-issuance or sale of such Shares.

                  (c) As a condition to the  exercise of an Option,  the Company
may require the person  exercising the Option to make such  representations  and
warranties as may be necessary to assure the  availability  of an exemption from
the registration requirements of federal or state securities law.

                  (d) Notwithstanding  anything herein to the contrary, upon the
termination  of  employment  or service  of an  Optionee  by the  Company or its
Subsidiaries  for "cause" as defined at 12 C.F.R.  563.39(b)(1) as determined by
the Board of Directors,  all Options held by such Participant  shall cease to be
exercisable as of the date of such termination of employment or service.

<PAGE>

                  (e) Upon the  exercise  of an  Option by an  Optionee  (or the
Optionee's  personal  representative),  the Committee,  in its sole and absolute
discretion,  may make a cash payment to the  Optionee,  in whole or in part,  in
lieu of the delivery of shares of Common Stock.  Such cash payment to be paid in
lieu of delivery of Common  Stock shall be equal to the  difference  between the
Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of the Option exercise and the
exercise  price per share of the Option.  Such cash payment shall be in exchange
for the cancellation of such Option.  Such cash payment shall not be made in the
event that such  transaction  would  result in  liability to the Optionee or the
Company under Section 16(b) of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
and regulations promulgated thereunder.

         20. Reservation  of Shares.  During the term of the Plan,  the  Company
             ----------------------
will  reserve and keep  available a number of Shares  sufficient  to satisfy the
requirements of the Plan.

         21. Unsecured Obligation.  No Participant under the Plan shall have any
             --------------------
interest  in any fund or special  asset of the  Company by reason of the Plan or
the grant of any  Option  under the Plan.  No trust  fund  shall be  created  in
connection with the Plan or any grant of any Option hereunder and there shall be
no required funding of amounts which may become payable to any Participant.

         22. No Employment  Rights. No Director,  Employee or other person shall
             ---------------------
have a right to be selected as a  Participant  under the Plan.  Neither the Plan
nor any action  taken by the  Committee in  administration  of the Plan shall be
construed  as giving  any person any rights of  employment  or  retention  as an
Employee,  Director or in any other capacity with the Company,  the Savings Bank
or other Subsidiaries.

         23. Governing  Law.  The Plan  shall be  governed by and  construed  in
             --------------
accordance  with the laws of the State of  Florida,  except to the  extent  that
federal law shall be deemed to apply.

shall have all of the powers  allocated to it in this and other  sections of the
Plan,  may take any action under or with respect to the Plan which the Committee
is authorized to take,  and may reverse or override any action taken or decision
made by the Committee under or with respect to the Plan, provided, however, that
the Board may not revoke any Plan Share Award already made except as provided in
Section 7.01(b) herein.

         4.03 Limitation on Liability.  No member of the Board, the Committee or
the  Trustee  shall be liable  for any  determination  made in good  faith  with
respect to the Plan or any Plan Share Awards granted.  If a member of the Board,
Committee or any Trustee is a party or is  threatened  to be made a party to any
threatened,  pending or completed  action,  suit or  proceeding,  whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative, by any reason of anything done or not
done by him in such capacity  under or with respect to the Plan,  the Parent and
the  Savings  Bank shall  indemnify  such  member  against  expenses  (including
attorney's fees),  judgments,  fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably  incurred  by him or her in  connection  with  such  action,  suit or
proceeding if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably
believed to be in the best  interests  of the Parent,  the Savings  Bank and its
Subsidiaries  and,  with respect to any criminal  action or  proceeding,  had no
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.  Notwithstanding  anything
herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Savings Bank take any actions with
respect to this Section 4.03 which is not in compliance  with the limitations or
requirements set forth at 12 CFR 545.121, as may be amended from time to time.

                                    Article V
                                    ---------

                        CONTRIBUTIONS; PLAN SHARE RESERVE

         5.01 Amount and Timing of Contributions.  The Board of Directors of the
Savings  Bank  shall  determine  the  amounts  (or the method of  computing  the
amounts) to be  contributed by the Savings Bank to the Trust  established  under
this  Plan.  Such  amounts  shall  be  paid  to  the  Trustee  at  the  time  of
contribution.  No contributions to the Trust by Participants  shall be permitted
except with respect to amounts necessary to meet tax withholding obligations.

         5.02  Initial  Investment.  Any  funds  held  by  the  Trust  prior  to
investment  in the  Common  Stock  shall  be  invested  by the  Trustee  in such
interest-bearing  account or accounts at the Savings  Bank as the Trustee  shall
determine to be appropriate.

         5.03  Investment  of Trust  Assets.  Following  approval of the Plan by
stockholders  of the  Parent  and  receipt  of any  other  necessary  regulatory
approvals,  the Trust  shall  purchase  Common  Stock of the Parent in an amount
equal to up to 100% of the Trust's  assets,  after  providing  for any  required
withholding as needed for tax purposes,  provided, however, that the Trust shall
not purchase more than 111,625  shares of Common Stock,  representing  4% of the
aggregate  shares of Common  Stock  issued by the  Parent in the  Conversion  to
parties other than FloridaFirst Bancorp, Inc. The Trustee may purchase shares of
Common Stock in the open market or, in the alternative,  may purchase authorized
but  unissued  shares of the Common  Stock or  treasury  shares  from the Parent
sufficient to fund the Plan Share Reserve.

         5.04 Effect of  Allocations,  Returns and  Forfeitures  Upon Plan Share
Reserves. Upon the allocation of Plan Share Awards under Sections 6.02 and 6.05,
or the decision of the  Committee to return Plan Shares to the Parent,  the Plan
Share Reserve shall be reduced by the number of Shares  subject to the Awards so
allocated  or  returned.  Any Shares  subject  to an Award  which are not earned
because of forfeiture by the Participant pursuant to Section 7.01 shall be added
to the Plan Share Reserve.

                            ELIGIBILITY; ALLOCATIONS

         6.01  Eligibility.  Employees are eligible to receive Plan Share Awards
within the sole  discretion  of the  Committee.  Directors who are not otherwise
Employees shall receive Plan Share Awards pursuant to Section 6.05.

         6.02  Allocations.  The Committee will determine which of the Employees
will be  granted  Plan Share  Awards  and the  number of Shares  covered by each
Award,  provided,  however, that in no event shall any Awards be made which will
violate the Charter or Bylaws of the Savings Bank or its Parent or  Subsidiaries
or any applicable  federal or state law or  regulation.  In the event Shares are
forfeited for any reason or additional Shares are purchased by the Trustee,  the
Committee  may,  from time to time,  determine  which of the  Employees  will be
granted  Plan Share  Awards to be awarded from  forfeited  Shares.  In selecting
those Employees and Directors Emeritus to whom Plan Share Awards will be granted
and the number of shares  covered by such Awards,  the Committee  shall consider
the prior and anticipated future position,  duties and  responsibilities  of the
Employees,  the value of their  prior and  anticipated  future  services  to the
Savings Bank and its Subsidiaries,  and any other factors the Committee may deem
relevant.  All actions by the  Committee  shall be deemed  final,  except to the
extent  that such  actions are  revoked by the Board.  Notwithstanding  anything
herein to the  contrary,  in no event shall any  Participant  receive Plan Share
Awards in excess of 25% of the aggregate Plan Shares authorized under the Plan.

         6.03  Form  of  Allocation.   As  promptly  as   practicable   after  a
determination is made pursuant to Section 6.02 or Section 6.05 that a Plan Share
Award is to be made,  the Committee  shall notify the  Participant in writing of
the grant of the Award,  the number of Plan Shares covered by the Award, and the
terms upon which the Plan Shares subject to the award may be earned. The date on
which the Committee makes its award  determination  or the date the Committee so
notifies the Participant shall be considered the date of grant of the Plan Share
Awards as determined by the Committee.  The Committee shall maintain  records as
to all grants of Plan Share Awards under the Plan.

         6.04 Allocations Not Required. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
at Sections 6.01,  6.02 or 6.05, no Employee shall have any right or entitlement
to  receive  a Plan  Share  Award  hereunder,  such  Awards  being  at the  sole
discretion of the  Committee  and the Board,  nor shall the Employees as a group
have such a right.  The Committee may, with the approval of the Board (or, if so
directed by the Board)  return all Common Stock in the Plan Share Reserve to the
Savings Bank at any time, and cease issuing Plan Share Awards.

         6.05  Awards  to  Directors.  Notwithstanding  anything  herein  to the
contrary,  upon the Effective Date, a Plan Share Award  consisting of 4,635 Plan
Shares  shall be  awarded  to each  Director  of the  Savings  Bank  that is not
otherwise an Employee. Such Plan Share Award shall be earned and non-forfeitable
at the rate of one-fifth as of the one-year  anniversary  of the Effective  Date
and an additional  one-fifth  following each of the next four  successive  years
during such  periods of service as a Director or  Director  Emeritus.  Such Plan
Share Award shall be immediately 100% earned and non-forfeitable in the event of
the death or Disability of such Director or Director Emeritus. Further, provided
that such Plan is  approved  by a vote of the  stockholders  of the  Parent at a
stockholder's meeting held more than one year from the Savings Bank's conversion
to stock  form,  such Plan Share  Award  shall be  immediately  100%  earned and
non-forfeitable  upon a  Change  in  Control  of the  Savings  Bank  or  Parent.
Subsequent to the

                                       -5-
<PAGE>

Effective  Date,  Plan Share Awards may be awarded to newly elected or appointed
Directors of the Savings Bank by the  Committee,  provided that total Plan Share
Awards  granted to  non-employee  Directors of the Savings Bank shall not exceed
30% of the total Plan Share Reserve in the aggregate under the Plan or 5% of the
total Plan Share Reserve to any individual non-employee Director.

                                   Article VII
                                   -----------

             EARNINGS AND DISTRIBUTION OF PLAN SHARES; VOTING RIGHTS

         7.01     Earnings Plan Shares; Forfeitures.

         (a) General Rules. Unless the Committee shall specifically state to the
contrary at the time a Plan Share Award is  granted,  Plan Shares  subject to an
Award  shall be  earned  and  non-forfeitable  by a  Participant  at the rate of
one-fifth of such Award following one year after the granting of such Award, and
an  additional  one-fifth  following  each of the next  four  successive  years;
provided  that such  Participant  remains an  Employee,  Director,  or  Director
Emeritus during such period. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in
no  event  shall a Plan  Share  Award  granted  hereunder  be  earned  and  non-
forfeitable by a Participant  more rapidly than at the rate of one-fifth of such
Award as of the one year  anniversary  of the  date of grant  and an  additional
one-fifth following each of the next four successive years.

         (b) Revocation for Misconduct.  Notwithstanding  anything herein to the
contrary,  the Board  shall,  by  resolution,  immediately  revoke,  rescind and
terminate any Plan Share Award,  or portion  thereof,  previously  awarded under
this Plan, to the extent Plan Shares have not been  delivered  thereunder to the
Participant,  whether or not yet  earned,  in the case of a  Participant  who is
discharged  from  the  employ  or  service  of the  Parent,  Savings  Bank  or a
Subsidiary for Cause,  or who is discovered  after  termination of employment or
service to have engaged in conduct  that would have  justified  termination  for
Cause.  A  determination  of Cause  shall be made by the Board  within  its sole
discretion.

         (c)   Exception   for   Terminations   Due  to  Death  or   Disability.
Notwithstanding  the general rule contained in Section  7.01(a) above,  all Plan
Shares subject to a Plan Share Award held by a Participant  whose  employment or
service with the Parent, Savings Bank or a Subsidiary terminates due to death or
Disability,  shall be deemed earned and  nonforfeitable  as of the Participant's
last date of employment  or service with the Parent,  Savings Bank or Subsidiary
and shall be distributed as soon as practicable thereafter.

         (d)   Exception   for   Termination   after  a   Change   in   Control.
Notwithstanding the general rule contained in Section 7.01 above,  provided that
such  Plan  is  approved  by a vote  of the  stockholders  of  the  Parent  at a
stockholder's meeting held more than one year from the Savings Bank's conversion
to  stock  form,  all  Plan  Shares  subject  to a Plan  Share  Award  held by a
Participant shall be deemed to be immediately 100% earned and non-forfeitable in
the event of a Change in  Control  of the  Parent or  Savings  Bank and shall be
distributed as soon as practicable thereafter.

         7.02 Accrual and Payment of Dividends.  A holder of a Plan Share Award,
whether or not earned,  shall also be entitled to receive an amount equal to any
cash  dividends  declared  and paid with  respect  to  shares  of  Common  Stock
represented  by such Plan Share Award  between the date the relevant  Plan Share
Award  was  granted  to such  Participant  and the  date  the  Plan  Shares  are
distributed. Such cash

                                       -6-
<PAGE>

dividend  amounts shall be held in arrears under the Trust and distributed  upon
the earning of the applicable Plan Share Award.  Such payment shall also include
an appropriate  amount of earnings,  if any, of the Trust assets with respect to
any cash dividends so distributed.

         7.03     Distribution of Plan Shares.

         (a)  Timing of  Distributions:  General  Rule.  Except as  provided  in
Subsections  (d)  and  (e)  below,  Plan  Shares  shall  be  distributed  to the
Participant or his Beneficiary, as the case may be, as soon as practicable after
they  have  been   earned.   No   fractional   shares   shall  be   distributed.
Notwithstanding  anything  herein  to the  contrary,  at the  discretion  of the
Committee,  Plan  Shares  may be  distributed  prior to such  Shares  being 100%
earned,  provided  that such Plan  Shares  shall  contain a  restrictive  legend
detailing the applicable limitations of such shares with respect to transfer and
forfeiture.

         (b) Form of  Distribution.  All Plan Shares,  together  with any shares
representing stock dividends,  shall be distributed in the form of Common Stock.
One share of Common  Stock shall be given for each Plan Share  earned.  Payments
representing  cash  dividends  (and  earnings  thereon)  shall  be made in cash.
Notwithstanding  anything  within  the Plan to the  contrary,  upon a Change  in
Control  whereby  substantially  all of the Common  Stock of the Parent shall be
acquired for cash,  all earned Plan Shares  associated  with Plan Share  Awards,
together with any shares  representing  stock  dividends  associated with earned
Plan  Share  Awards,  shall  be,  at  the  sole  discretion  of  the  Committee,
distributed  as of the effective  date of such Change in Control,  or as soon as
administratively  feasible  thereafter,  in  the  form  of  cash  equal  to  the
consideration  received in exchange  for such Common Stock  represented  by such
Plan Shares.

         (c)  Withholding.   The  Trustee  may  withhold  from  any  payment  or
distribution made under this Plan sufficient amounts of cash or shares of Common
Stock necessary to cover any applicable withholding and employment taxes, and if
the amount of such payment or distribution  is not  sufficient,  the Trustee may
require the Participant or Beneficiary to pay to the Trustee the amount required
to be  withheld in taxes as a  condition  of  delivering  the Plan  Shares.  The
Trustee shall pay over to the Parent,  Savings Bank or Subsidiary  which employs
or  employed  such  Participant  any such  amount  withheld  from or paid by the
Participant or Beneficiary.

         (d) Timing: Exception for 10% Shareholders.  Notwithstanding Subsection
(a) above,  no Plan  Shares may be  distributed  prior to the date which is five
years from the effective date of the Conversion to the extent the Participant or
Beneficiary,  as the case may be,  would  after  receipt  of such  Shares own in
excess of ten percent (10%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock
held by parties other than Parent,  unless such action is approved in advance by
a majority vote of disinterested  directors of the Board of the Parent. Any Plan
Shares  remaining  undistributed  solely  by  reason  of the  operation  of this
Subsection (d) shall be distributed to the Participant or his Beneficiary on the
date which is five years from the effective date of the Conversion.

         (e)  Regulatory  Exceptions.  No  Plan  Shares  shall  be  distributed,
however,  unless and until all of the  requirements  of all  applicable  law and
regulation  shall  have been  fully  complied  with,  including  the  receipt of
approval of the Plan by the  stockholders of the Parent by such vote, if any, as
may be required by applicable law and regulations.

         7.04 Voting of Plan Shares.  After a Plan Share Award has become earned
and non-forfeitable,  the Participant shall be entitled to direct the Trustee as
to the voting of the Plan Shares which are

                                       -7-
<PAGE>

associated  with the Plan Share  Award and which  have not yet been  distributed
pursuant  to  Section  7.03,  subject  to rules and  procedures  adopted  by the
Committee for this  purpose.  All shares of Common Stock held by the Trust as to
which  Participants  have not yet earned and are not entitled to direct, or have
not  directed,  the  voting of such  Shares,  shall be voted by the  Trustee  as
directed by the Committee.

                                  Article VIII
                                  ------------

                                      TRUST

         8.01 Trust.  The Trustee shall receive,  hold,  administer,  invest and
make  distributions  and  disbursements  from the Trust in  accordance  with the
provisions  of  the  Plan  and  Trust  and  the  applicable  directions,  rules,
regulations,  procedures and policies  established by the Committee  pursuant to
the Plan.

         8.02  Management  of Trust.  It is the intention of this Plan and Trust
that the Trustee shall have complete  authority and  discretion  with respect to
the management,  control and investment of the Trust, and that the Trustee shall
invest all assets of the Trust, except those attributable to cash dividends paid
with respect to Plan Shares not held in the Plan Share Reserve,  in Common Stock
to the  fullest  extent  practicable,  except  to the  extent  that the  Trustee
determines  that the holding of monies in cash or cash  equivalents is necessary
to meet the obligations of the Trust. In performing  their duties,  the Trustees
shall have the power to do all things and  execute  such  instruments  as may be
deemed necessary or proper, including the following powers:

         (a) To invest up to one hundred  percent  (100%) of all Trust assets in
         the Common  Stock  without  regard to any law now or hereafter in force
         limiting investments for Trustees or other fiduciaries.  The investment
         authorized  herein may constitute the only investment of the Trust, and
         in making such investment, the Trustee is authorized to purchase Common
         Stock from the Parent or from any other  source,  and such Common Stock
         so purchased may be outstanding, newly issued, or treasury shares.

         (b) To invest any Trust  assets not  otherwise  invested in  accordance
         with (a) above in such deposit  accounts,  and  certificates of deposit
         (including those issued by the Savings Bank), obligations of the United
         States government or its agencies or such other investments as shall be
         considered the equivalent of cash.

         (c) To  sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of any property at any time
         held or acquired by the Trust.

         (d) To cause stocks,  bonds or other securities to be registered in the
         name of a nominee,  without the addition of words  indicating that such
         security  is an asset  of the  Trust  (but  accurate  records  shall be
         maintained showing that such security is an asset of the Trust).

         (e) To hold cash  without  interest  in such  amounts  as may be in the
         opinion of the Trustee  reasonable for the proper operation of the Plan
         and Trust.

         (f) To employ brokers, agents, custodians, consultants and accountants.

                                       -8-
<PAGE>

         (g) To hire  counsel to render  advice  with  respect to their  rights,
         duties and  obligations  hereunder,  and such other  legal  services or
         representation as they may deem desirable.

         (h) To  hold  funds  and  securities  representing  the  amounts  to be
         distributed to a Participant  or his  Beneficiary as a consequence of a
         dispute as to the disposition thereof,  whether in a segregated account
         or held in common with other assets.

         (i) As may be directed by the Committee or the Board from time to time,
         the  Trustee  shall  pay to  the  Saving  Bank  earnings  of the  Trust
         attributable to the Plan Share Reserve.

         Notwithstanding  anything herein contained to the contrary, the Trustee
shall not be required to make any  inventory,  appraisal or settlement or report
to any court,  or to secure any order of a court for the  exercise  of any power
herein contained, or to maintain bond.

         8.03 Records and  Accounts.  The Trustee  shall  maintain  accurate and
detailed records and accounts of all  transactions of the Trust,  which shall be
available at all reasonable  times for inspection by any legally entitled person
or entity  to the  extent  required  by  applicable  law,  or any  other  person
determined by the Committee.

         8.04  Earnings.  All  earnings,  gains and losses with respect to Trust
assets shall be allocated in accordance with a reasonable  procedure  adopted by
the  Committee,  to  bookkeeping  accounts  for  Participants  or to the general
account of the Trust,  depending  on the  nature  and  allocation  of the assets
generating such earnings, gains and losses. In particular,  any earnings on cash
dividends  received with respect to shares of Common Stock shall be allocated to
accounts for  Participants,  except to the extent that such cash  dividends  are
distributed to Participants,  if such shares are the subject of outstanding Plan
Share Awards, or, otherwise to the Plan Share Reserve.

         8.05  Expenses.  All costs and expenses  incurred in the  operation and
administration of this Plan,  including those incurred by the Trustee,  shall be
paid by the Savings Bank.

         8.06  Indemnification.  Subject to the  requirements and limitations of
applicable  laws  and  regulations,  the  Parent  and  the  Savings  Bank  shall
indemnify, defend and hold the Trustee harmless against all claims, expenses and
liabilities  arising out of or related to the exercise of the  Trustee's  powers
and the  discharge  of their duties  hereunder,  unless the same shall be due to
their gross negligence or willful misconduct.

                                   Article IX
                                   ----------

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         9.01  Adjustments  for Capital  Changes.  The aggregate  number of Plan
Shares  available for issuance  pursuant to the Plan Share Awards and the number
of  Shares  to which  any Plan  Share  Award  relates  shall be  proportionately
adjusted for any increase or decrease in the total number of outstanding  shares
of Common Stock issued  subsequent to the effective  date of the Plan  resulting
from any  split,  subdivision  or  consolidation  of the  Common  Stock or other
capital adjustment, change or exchange of the Common Stock, or other increase or
decrease in the number or kind of shares effected  without receipt or payment of
consideration by the Parent.

<PAGE>

         9.02  Amendment  and  Termination  of  the  Plan.  The  Board  may,  by
resolution,  at any time,  amend or  terminate  the Plan.  The power to amend or
terminate  the Plan shall  include  the power to direct the Trustee to return to
the  Parent  all or any part of the  assets of the  Trust,  including  shares of
Common Stock held in the Plan Share  Reserve,  as well as shares of Common Stock
and other assets  subject to Plan Share Awards which have not yet been earned by
the Participants to whom they have been awarded. However, the termination of the
Trust shall not affect a  Participant's  right to earn Plan Share  Awards and to
the distribution of Common Stock relating thereto,  including  earnings thereon,
in accordance  with the terms of this Plan and the grant by the Committee or the
Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no action of the Board may increase (other
than as provided  in Section  9.01  hereof)  the  maximum  number of Plan Shares
permitted to be awarded under the Plan as specified at Section 5.03,  materially
increase  the benefits  accruing to  Participants  under the Plan or  materially
modify the  requirements  for eligibility for  participation  in the Plan unless
such action of the Board shall be subject to ratification by the stockholders of
the Parent.

         9.03 Nontransferable. Plan Share Awards and rights to Plan Shares shall
not  be  transferable  by  a  Participant,   and  during  the  lifetime  of  the
Participant,  Plan Shares may only be earned by and paid to the  Participant who
was notified in writing of the Award by the Committee  pursuant to Section 6.03.
No Participant or Beneficiary  shall have any right in or claim to any assets of
the Plan or Trust,  nor shall the Parent,  Savings  Bank,  or any  Subsidiary be
subject to any claim for benefits hereunder.

         9.04 No  Employment  Rights.  Neither  the Plan nor any grant of a Plan
Share Award or Plan Shares  hereunder  nor any action taken by the Trustee,  the
Committee  or the Board in  connection  with the Plan  shall  create  any right,
either  express or implied,  on the part of any  Participant  to continue in the
employ or service of the Parent, Savings Bank, or a Subsidiary thereof.

         9.05 Voting and Dividend Rights.  No Participant  shall have any voting
or dividend rights of a stockholder with respect to any Plan Shares covered by a
Plan Share Award,  except as expressly provided in Sections 7.02 and 7.04 above,
prior to the time said Plan Shares are actually distributed to such Participant.

         9.06  Governing  Law.  The Plan and  Trust  shall  be  governed  by and
construed  under the laws of the State of  Florida,  except to the  extent  that
Federal Law shall be deemed applicable.

         9.07  Effective  Date.  The Plan shall be  effective  as of the date of
approval of the Plan by  stockholders  of the Parent,  subject to the receipt of
approval or non-objection by the OTS or other applicable banking  regulator,  if
applicable.

         9.08 Term of Plan.  This Plan shall  remain in effect until the earlier
of (i)  termination  by the Board,  (ii) the  distribution  of all assets of the
Trust, or (iii) 21 years from the Effective Date.  Termination of the Plan shall
not effect any Plan Share Awards previously granted,  and such Plan Share Awards
shall  remain  valid and in effect  until they have been earned and paid,  or by
their terms expire or are forfeited.

         9.09 Tax Status of Trust.  It is  intended  that the Trust  established
hereby  shall be  treated  as a  grantor  trust of the  Savings  Bank  under the
provisions  of Section  671 et seq. of the  Internal  Revenue  Code of 1986,  as
amended, as the same may be amended from time to time.
