CHANGE OF CONTROL AND NON-SOLICITATION
AGREEMENT

 

THIS CHANGE OF CONTROL AND NON-SOLICITATION
AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of the 8th day of October, 2014, by and among First Defiance Financial
Corp. an Ohio corporation and thrift holding company (“First Defiance”), First Federal Bank of the Midwest, a federal
savings bank (“First Federal”) (collectively, with First Defiance, the “Company”), and John Reisner, an
individual (the “Employee”).

 

WITNESSETH:

 

WHEREAS, the Employee has been employed
by the Company since September 3, 2013;

 

WHEREAS, as a result of the skill, knowledge
and experience of the Employee, the Company believes it is in the best interest of the Company to provide the Employee with a sense
of security to encourage the Employee to remain an employee of the Company; and

 

WHEREAS, the Company and the Employee desire
to enter into this Agreement to set forth their understanding as to their respective rights and obligations in the event of the
termination of Employee's employment under the circumstances set forth in this Agreement;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the
premises and mutual covenants herein contained, the Company and the Employee hereby agree as follows:

 

1.          Term.
The term of this Agreement shall begin on the date above and shall continue until the first anniversary of the Agreement, unless
sooner terminated for Just Cause, as defined in this Agreement. This Agreement shall automatically renew for additional one year
periods following the original term, at the end of each subsequent one year period, upon the same terms and conditions unless the
Company provides at least 30 days prior notice of its intent not to renew.

 

2.          Termination
of Employment.

 

(a)          Termination
by the Company in Connection with a Change of Control. In the event that the employment of the Employee is terminated by the
Company, or its successors or assigns, at any time during the Term for any reason other than Just Cause within six months prior
to a Change of Control (hereinafter defined) or within one year after a Change of Control, then the following shall occur:

 

(i)          The
Company shall promptly pay to the Employee or to his beneficiaries, dependents or estate an amount equal to two times the Employee's
annual base salary as last set by the Company prior to the Change of Control as most recently set prior to the occurrence of the
Change of Control;

 

(ii)         The
Company shall pay the premiums required to maintain coverage for the Employee and his eligible dependents under the health insurance
plan of the Employer in which the Employee is a participant immediately prior to the Change of Control of the Company in accordance
with the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended, until the earliest of (A) the first anniversary of
the termination of the Employee's employment or (B) the date on which the Employee is included in another employer’s comparable
health insurance plan as a full-time employee; and

 

     

     

    

 

(iii)        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 Company hereunder, except as specifically stated in clause (ii) above.

 

For purposes of this Agreement, the term
“Just Cause” shall mean personal dishonesty, incompetence, willful misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty involving personal
profit, intentional failure to perform stated duties, willful violation of any law, rule or regulation (other than traffic violations
or similar offenses) or final cease-and-desist order or material breach of any provision of this  Agreement.  For
purposes of this paragraph, no act or failure to act on the Employee’s part shall be considered “willful” unless
done, or omitted to be done, by the Employee not in good faith and without reasonable belief that the Employee’s action or
omission was in the best interest of the Company.

 

(b)          Termination
by the Employee in Connection with a Change of Control. The Employee may voluntarily terminate the Employee's employment pursuant
to this Agreement within twelve months following a Change of Control and shall be entitled to compensation as set forth in Section
2(a) of this Agreement in the event that, without the Employee’s express written consent, there is:

 

(i)          an
assignment by the Company to the Employee of any duties that are materially inconsistent with his positions, duties, responsibilities
and status with the Company immediately prior to such Change of Control;

 

(ii)         a
material change in the Employee’s reporting responsibilities, titles or offices as an employee and as in effect immediately
prior to such a Change of Control; or

 

(iii)        a
removal of the Employee from or a failure to re-elect the Employee to the offices of General Counsel and Executive Vice President
of First Federal, except in connection with Just Cause, or the Employee’s death;

 

(iv)        a
reduction by the Company in the Employee’s base salary, as in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control;

 

(v)         a
relocation of the principal executive office of the Company outside of the Defiance, Ohio area or, a requirement that the Employee
be based anywhere other than an area in which the Company’s principal executive office is located, except for required travel
on business of the Company to an extent substantially consistent with the Employee’s present business travel obligations;

 

    	 	-2-	 

     

    

 

(vi)        a
failure by the Company to provide the Employee with the same fringe benefits that were provided to the Employee immediately prior
to a Change of Control, or with a package of fringe benefits (including paid vacations) that, though one or more of such benefits
may vary from those in effect immediately prior to such Change of Control, is substantially comparable in all material respects
to such fringe benefits taken as a whole;

 

(vii)       a
failure by the Company to obtain the assumption of and agreement to perform this Agreement by any successor as contemplated in
Section 7 hereof; or

 

(viii)      a
failure by the Company to comply with any material provision of this Agreement.

 

In the event that payments pursuant to this
Agreement, or any other payments are made by the Company to the Employee which would constitute a “parachute payment”
within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations
promulgated thereunder (“Section 280G”), or would result in the imposition of a penalty tax pursuant to Section 280G,
such payments shall be reduced to the maximum amount that may be paid under Section 280G without exceeding such limits. In the
event a reduction in payments is necessary in order to comply with the requirements of this Agreement relating to the limitations
of Section 280G or applicable banking regulatory limits, the Employee may determine, in his sole discretion, which categories of
payments are to be reduced or eliminated.

 

(c)          Death
of Employee. This Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the death of the Employee.

 

(d)          “Golden
Parachute” Provision. Any payments made to the Employee pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise are subject to and conditioned
upon compliance with 12 U.S.C. §1828(k) and any regulations promulgated thereunder.

 

(e)          Definition
of “Change of Control”. A “Change of Control” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v)
of the Code.

 

3.          Confidential
Information. The Employee acknowledges that the Employee has learned and has access to confidential information regarding the
Company and its customers and businesses. The Employee agrees and covenants not to disclose or use for the Employee's own benefit,
or the benefit of any other person or entity, any confidential information, unless or until the Company consents to such disclosure
or use or such information becomes common knowledge in the industry or 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 Company, its parent,
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 Company. The Employee shall not otherwise knowingly act (a) to the material detriment of the Company,
its subsidiaries, or affiliates, or (b) in a manner which is inimical or contrary to the interests of the Company.

 

    	 	-3-	 

     

    

 

4.          Nonassignability.
Neither this Agreement nor any right or interest hereunder shall be assignable by the Employee, the Employee's beneficiaries or
legal representatives without the Company's prior written consent; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 4 shall preclude
(a) the Employee from designating a beneficiary to receive any benefits which were payable hereunder prior to the Employee's death,
or (b) the executors, administrators, or other legal representatives of the Employee or the Employee's estate from assigning any
rights hereunder to the person or persons entitled thereto.

 

5.          Non-Solicitation
Provisions.   If the Employee terminates his employment with the Company for any reason, the Employee agrees that, for a period
of 12 months following the termination of the Employee's employment, the Employee shall not directly or indirectly, solicit, divert,
take away or interfere with, or attempt to solicit, divert, take away or interfere with, the relationship of the Company or any
of their subsidiaries with any person or entity who is or was a customer, or employee or supplier of the Company or any of their
subsidiaries immediately prior to the date of termination.

 

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree
that the covenant set forth in this Section is fair and reasonable and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company.
In the event that any court determines that the time period is unreasonable and that such covenant is to that extent unenforceable,
the parties hereto agree that the covenant shall remain in full force and effect for the greatest time period that would not render
it unenforceable.

 

6.          No
Attachment. Except as required by law, no right to receive payment under this Agreement shall be subject to anticipation, commutation,
alienation, sale, assignment, encumbrance, charge, pledge or hypothecation or to execution, 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.

 

7.          Binding
Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the Employee and the Company and their respective
permitted successors and assigns.

 

8.          Amendment
of Agreement. This Agreement may not be modified or amended, except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto.

 

9.          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.

 

10.         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.

 

    	 	-4-	 

     

    

 

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

 

12.         Governing
Law; Regulatory Authority. This Agreement has been executed and delivered in the State of Ohio and its validity, interpretation,
performance and enforcement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, except to the extent that federal law is governing.
If this Agreement conflicts with any applicable federal law as now or hereafter in effect, then federal law shall govern.

 

13.         Effect
of Prior Agreements. This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the parties hereto and supersedes any prior employment
agreement between the Company or any predecessor of the Company and the Employee.
