     4. Conduct. The Employee shall at all times during her employment by the Company:

          4.2 Comply with all of the Company’s employment policies applicable to employees, including
the Company’s then-current Employee Handbook (the “Employee Handbook”);

          4.3 All reasonable directions and orders of the CEO and/or his designee;

          4.4 Otherwise act in a professional manner, setting the example of excellence to the
workforce, government officials and agencies, and community.

     5. Reports. The Employee shall prepare any reports as requested by the CEO and/or his
designee on a timely basis.

     6. Term of Employment and Compensation.

          6.1 Term of Employment. The Company shall employ Employee for a period of one (1)
year, commencing on August 1, 2010 and ending on August 31, 2011, except as otherwise provided.

          6.2 Salary. The Employee’s salary shall be $432,000 per annum, payable at the rate of
$36,000 per month in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll procedures.

          6.3 EESA/ARRA. The Agreement is intended to comply with rules and regulations
pertaining to executive compensation under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (EESA),
as amended by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (the ARRA) and any amendments
thereto and regulations which may have impact on the Agreement, including those regulations which
became effective upon issuance by the U.S. Department of Treasury as 31 C.F.R. Part 30 on or about
June 15, 2009 (the “Regulations”). Effective during the period in which any obligation of the
Employers arising from financial assistance provided under the United States Treasury’s Troubled
Assets Relief Program (TARP) remains outstanding (but not including any period during which the
Federal Government only holds warrants to purchase common stock of the Company), such that the
Company is subject to Section 111 of EESA (the “TARP Participation Period”), Employers shall not,
and shall not be obligated to, pay or accrue any bonus, retention award or incentive compensation
or make any payment for Employee’s departure from the Employers for any reason (except for payments
for services performed or benefits accrued) to or for Executive to the extent prohibited by Section
111 of EESA or the Regulations. If in the opinion of tax or regulatory counsel selected by
Employers and acceptable to Executive, it is necessary to limit or reduce Employee’s compensation
pursuant to this Section 8(iii), the Company shall take all reasonable steps to restructure this
Agreement

2

 

and Employee’s compensation and benefits in a manner intended to compensate the Employee
according to the original provisions and intent of this Agreement. This restructuring may, to the
extent permissible under EESA and/or the Regulations, include (a) delaying payments during the TARP
Participation Period to a time when the Company is no longer subject to Section 111 of EESA, or (b)
implementing payments or programs not originally contemplated by the parties. If in the opinion of
such counsel there are payments or amounts not capable of restructuring, such amounts or payments
shall be deemed waived by Employee and Employee agrees to accept such waiver; provided, however,
that if Employee believes such opinion to be incorrect, (A) Employers shall pay to the Employee the
maximum amount of payments and benefits which such opinion indicates there is a high probability do
not result in any such payment and benefits being in violation of EESA and/or the Regulations, and
(B) Employers may request, and Employee shall have the right to demand, that Employers request a
ruling from the IRS or other applicable regulatory authority as to whether the disputed payments
have such consequences. Any such request for a ruling shall be promptly prepared and filed by the
Employers, but in no event later than thirty (30) days from the date of the Employee’s request as
referred to above, and shall be subject to Employee’s approval prior to filing, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld. Employers and Employee agree to be bound by any ruling received and to make
appropriate payments to each other to reflect the impact of EESA and the Regulations on payments
made or to be made as reflected by such rulings, together with interest at the applicable federal
rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2) of the Code.

     In the event the Employers cease to be subject to ARRA and/or Section 111 of EESA and the
Regulations for any reason, any limitations on amounts or payments to Employee imposed by this
Section 6.3 shall cease to be effective. The parties to this Agreement recognize that further
regulations under AARA and EESA, in addition to the Regulations, may affect the amounts that may be
paid under this Agreement and agree that, upon issuance of any such further regulations this
Agreement may be modified as is in good faith deemed necessary in light of the provisions of such
regulations to achieve the intent and purposes of this Agreement, and that consent to such
modifications shall be unreasonably withheld.

     7. Expense Reimbursement. During the term of this Agreement, the Company shall
reimburse the Employee for all reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket expenses incurred, such as,
mileage for commuting at the IRS approved rate, lodging, meals and other travel-related expenses or
other expense as determined by the Company with the Company’s prior written approval, by the
Employee in connection with the performance of her duties hereunder, upon the presentation of
proper accounts therefore in accordance with the Company’s policies. Such reimbursement will be
due within ten (10) days after the Company’s receipt of Employee’s request for reimbursement.

     8. Benefits. During the term of this Agreement, the Employee shall be entitled to the
employee benefits as provided in the Employee Handbook, dated October 1, 2009. Employee, if she
satisfies the conditions for eligibility, will be eligible to receive such other benefits that are
available to employees with the similar job title and job classification as Employee, including
stock options and restricted stock as is authorized and approved by the Board of Directors.

     9. Termination of Employment. Employee’s employment, whether by the Employee or the
Company, may be terminated before the end of the term of the Agreement, as follows:

3

 

	 	(a)	 	By Company for Cause. Employee can be terminated by
the Company’s Board of Directors or CEO at any time by written notice during
the term of this Agreement for “Cause”, which shall include termination because
of Employee’s 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 contract. Should Employee be terminated for
Cause under this provision, Employee will not be eligible to receive any
further compensation or benefits for any period after such termination.
	 
	 	(b)	 	By Employee Resignation. If Employee voluntarily
resigns from the Company, Employee agrees to give at least thirty (30) days
written notice to the Company. Employee agrees to continue to provide services
consistent with the terms of this Agreement throughout the thirty (30) day
notice period and also to work with the Company, CEO, and any person designated
by the CEO as a replacement for Employee to (i) wind up those matters with
which Employee is involved which are capable of resolution within the notice
period, and (ii) assist in the training of a replacement and in the
transitioning of those matters not capable of being wound up within the notice
period. In consideration of continuing to provide such services, together with
providing assistance in the winding up and transitioning of matters, and
contingent upon Employee providing the same during the entire thirty (30) day
period, the Company agrees to pay Employee an amount equal to one month’s
salary for such services.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Suspension or Termination Required by the OTS or FDIC.
	 
	 		 	(A) If Executive is suspended and/or temporarily prohibited from
participating in the conduct of the Employers’ affairs by a notice served
under Section 8(e)(3), or Section 8(g)(1), of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Act [12 U.S.C. § 1818(e)(3) and (g)(l)], the Employers’ obligations under
the Agreement shall be suspended as of the date of service of the notice
unless stayed by appropriate proceedings. If the charges in the notice are
dismissed, the Employers shall (i) pay Executive all of the compensation
withheld while their obligations under this Agreement were suspended, and
(ii) reinstate such obligations as were suspended.
	 
	 		 	(B) If Executive is removed and/or permanently prohibited from participating
in the conduct of the Employers’ affairs by an order issued under Section
8(e)(4) or Section 8(g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act [12 U.S.C. §
1818(e)(4) or (g)(1)], all obligations of the Employers under the Agreement
shall terminate as of the effective date of the order, but vested rights of
the contracting parties shall not be affected.
	 
	 		 	(C) If the Bank is in default as defined in Section 3(x)(1) of the Federal
Deposit Insurance Act [12 U.S.C. 1813 (x)(1)], all obligations under the

4

 

	 	 	 	Agreement shall terminate as of the date of default, but this paragraph
shall not affect any vested rights of the Executive.
	 
	 		 	(D) All obligations under the Agreement shall be terminated, except to the
extent determined that continuation of the contract is necessary for the
Employers’ continued operations (i) by the Director of the OTS, or his or
her’ designee at the time the FDIC or Resolution Trust Corporation (“RTC”)
enters into an agreement to provide assistance to or on behalf of the
Employers under the authority contained in Section 13(c) of the Federal
Deposit Insurance Act or (ii) by the Director of the OTS, or his or her
designee, at the time it approves a supervisory merger to resolve problems
related to operation of the Employers or when the Employers are determined
by the Director of the OTS to be in an unsafe or unsound condition. Any
rights of the parties that have already vested, however, shall not be
affected by such action.
	 
	 		 	(E) In the event that 12 C.F.R. § 563.39, or any successor regulation, is
repealed, this Section 9(c) shall cease to be effective on the effective
date of such repeal. In the event that 12 C.F.R. § 563.39, or any successor
regulation, is amended or modified, this Agreement shall be revised to
reflect the amended or modified provisions if: (1) the amended or modified
provision is required to be included in this Agreement; or (2) if not so
required, the Executive requests that the Agreement be so revised.

Document. Except as affected by this Amendment, the Loan Documents are unchanged and continue in
full force and effect. However, in the event of any inconsistency between the terms of the Credit

3

 

actions or failures to act in connection with the Loan Documents prior to the date of

enforce the Credit Agreement as written. This Amendment will be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of each of the undersigned and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

     8. Form. Each agreement, document, instrument or other writing to be furnished to Lender under any
provision of this instrument must be in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and its counsel.

     9. Multiple Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in more than one counterpart, each of which shall be deemed
an original, and all of which constitute, collectively, one instrument; but, in making proof of
this instrument, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such
counterpart. It shall not be necessary for Borrower and Lenders to execute the same counterpart
hereof so long as Borrower and Lenders each execute a counterpart hereof. For purposes of this
Amendment, an electronic copy of any party’s signature to this Amendment shall be deemed an
original signature.

     10. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AMENDMENT AND ALL TRANSACTIONS PROVIDED FOR IN THIS AMENDMENT WILL BE GOVERNED BY,
INTERPRETED AND CONSTRUED UNDER AND ENFORCED PURSUANT TO THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS, WITHOUT
REGARD TO ITS CONFLICTS OF LAWS PROVISIONS.

     11. FINAL AGREEMENT. THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS AMENDED BY OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AMENDMENT, REPRESENT THE FINAL
AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR
SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.
