Exhibit 10.8

RABBI TRUST FOR THE BENEFIT OF EXECUTIVE

OFFICERS OF FRATERNITY FEDERAL SAVINGS AND

LOAN ASSOCIATION WHO HAVE ENTERED INTO

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT WITH THE ASSOCIATION

     This Agreement made this 20th of day of July, 2004, by and between Fraternity Federal Savings
and Loan Association (“Association”), Grantor, and First Bankers Trust Company, an Illinois
corporation, Trustee.

     WHEREAS, Association wishes to establish a trust (hereinafter called “Trust”) and to
contribute to the Trust assets that shall be held therein, subject to the claims of Association’s
creditors in the event of Association’s Insolvency, as herein defined, until paid to Beneficiary
and his or her beneficiaries in such manner and at such times as specified in the employment
agreement; and

     WHEREAS, it is the intention of the parties that this Trust shall constitute an unfunded
arrangement and shall not affect the status of the Employment Agreement plan as an unfunded plan
maintained for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or
highly compensated employees for purposes of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
of 1974; and

     WHEREAS, it is the intention of Association to make contributions to the Trust to provide
itself with a source of funds to assist it in the meeting of its liabilities to participating
employees.

     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties do hereby establish the Trust and agree that the Trust shall be
comprised, held and disposed of as follows:

SECTION 1. ESTABLISHMENT OF TRUST

     (a) Association hereby deposits with Trustee in trust $1,625.00, which shall become the
principal of the Trust to be held, administered and disposed of by Trustee as provided in this
Trust Agreement.

     (b) The Trust shall become irrevocable five days following the issuance of a favorable private
letter ruling regarding the Trust from the Internal Revenue Service. Should the Association
determine not to seek a private letter ruling, the Trust shall become irrevocable from the date of
its full execution. Further, should a private letter ruling be sought and the Trust receives an
unfavorable response, the Association reserves the right to, within five (5) business days after
receipt of the unfavorable ruling, to decide to amend the agreement to cure the cited problems or
to terminate the Trust.

     (c) The Trust is intended to be a grantor trust, of which Association is the grantor, within
the meaning of subpart E, part 1, subchapter J, chapter 1, subtitle A of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended and shall be construed accordingly.

     (d) The principal of the Trust, and any earnings thereon shall be held separate and apart from
other funds of Association and shall be used exclusively for the uses and purposes of

 

 

Trust participants and general creditors as herein set forth. Trust participants and their
beneficiaries shall have no preferred claim on, or any beneficial ownership interest in, any assets
of the Trust. Any rights created under the employment agreement and this Trust Agreement shall be
mere unsecured contractual rights of Trust participants and their beneficiaries against
Association. Any assets held by the Trust will be subject to the claims of Association’s general
creditors under federal and state law in the event of Insolvency, as defined in Section 3(a)
herein.

     (e) Upon a termination of participant’s employment, Association shall, as soon as possible,
but in no event longer than 30 days following the termination of employment as defined in the
employment agreement, make an irrevocable contribution to the Trust in an amount that is sufficient
to pay participant or beneficiary the benefits to which participant or his or her beneficiaries
would be entitled pursuant to the terms of the particular employment contract as of the date on
which the termination occurred.

SECTION 2. PAYMENTS TO PLAN PARTICIPANTS AND THEIR BENEFICIARIES.

     (a) Association shall deliver to Trustee a schedule (the “Payment Schedule”) that indicates
the amounts payable in respect to each participant (and his or her beneficiaries), that provides
instructions acceptable to Trustee for determining the amounts so payable, the form in which such
amount is to be paid (as provided for or available under the employment contract), and the time of
commencement for payment of such amounts. Except as otherwise provided herein, Trustee shall make
payments to the participants and their beneficiaries in accordance with such Payment Schedule. The
Trustee shall make provision for the reporting and withholding of any federal, state or local taxes
that may be required to be withheld with respect to the payment of benefits pursuant to the terms
of the employment contract and shall pay amounts withheld to the appropriate taxing authorities or
determine that such amounts have been reported, withheld and paid by Association.

     (b) The entitlement of a participant or his or her beneficiaries to benefits under the
employment contract shall be determined by Association or such party as it shall designate under
the employment contract, and any claim for such benefits shall be considered and reviewed under the
procedures set out in the employment contract.

     (c) Association may make payment of benefits directly to participants or their beneficiaries
as they become due under the terms of the employment contract. Association shall notify Trustee of
its decision to make payment of benefits directly prior to the time amounts are payable to
participants or their beneficiaries. In addition, if the principal of the Trust is not sufficient
to make payments of benefits in accordance with the terms of the employment contract, Association
shall make the balance of each such payment as it falls due. Trustee shall notify Association where
principal is not sufficient.

     (d) Beneficiary shall have the right, from time to time, to name a person or persons as
his/her beneficiary for the receipt of benefits not paid to Beneficiary and to change, from time to
time, that person or persons so designated as the Beneficiary. Any such designation or change of
designation shall be by written instruction to the then Trustee using such form as Trustee may
require.

SECTION 3. TRUSTEE RESPONSIBILITY REGARDING PAYMENTS TO TRUST BENEFICIARY WHEN ASSOCIATION IS
INSOLVENT.

     (a) Trustee shall cease payment of benefits to participants and their beneficiaries if the
Association is Insolvent. Association shall be considered “Insolvent” for purposes of this Trust
Agreement if (i) Association is unable to pay its debts as they become due, or (ii) Association is
subject to a pending proceeding as a debtor under the United States Bankruptcy Code, or (iii)
Association is determined to be insolvent by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company, the Office of
Thrift Supervision, or other applicable federal regulatory agency.

     (b) At all times during the continuance of this Trust, as provided in Section 1(d) hereof, the
principal and income of the Trust shall be subject to claims of general creditors of Association
under federal and state law as set forth below.

          (1) The Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer of Association shall
have the duty to inform Trustee in writing of Association’s Insolvency. If a person claiming to be
a creditor of Association alleges in writing to Trustee that Association has become Insolvent,
Trustee shall determine whether Association is Insolvent and, pending such determination, Trustee
shall discontinue payment of benefits to participants or their beneficiaries.

          (2) Unless Trustee has actual knowledge of Association’s Insolvency, or has
received notice from Association or a person claiming to be a creditor alleging that Association is
Insolvent, Trustee shall have no duty to inquire whether Association is Insolvent. Trustee may in
all events rely on such evidence concerning Association’s solvency as may be furnished to Trustee
and that provides Trustee with a reasonable basis for making a determination concerning
Association’s solvency.

          (3) If at any time Trustee has determined that Association is Insolvent, Trustee
shall discontinue payments to participants or their beneficiaries and shall hold the assets of the
Trust for the benefit of Association’s general creditors. Nothing in this Trust Agreement shall in
any way diminish any rights of participants or their beneficiaries to pursue their rights as
general creditors of Association with respect to benefits due under the employment contract or
otherwise.

          (4) Trustee shall resume the payment of benefits to participants or their
beneficiaries in accordance with Section 2 of this Trust Agreement only after Trustee has
determined that Association is not Insolvent (or is no longer Insolvent).

     (c) Provided that there are sufficient assets, if Trustee discontinues the payment of benefits
from the Trust pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof and subsequently resumes such payments, the first
payment following such discontinuance shall include the aggregate amount of all payments due to
participants or their beneficiaries, under the terms of the employment contract for the period of
such discontinuance, less the aggregate amount of any payments made to participants or their
beneficiaries by Association in lieu of the payments provided for hereunder during any such period
of discontinuance.

3

 

SECTION 4. PAYMENTS TO ASSOCIATION.

     Except as provided in Section 3 hereof, after the Trust has become irrevocable, Association
shall have no right or power to direct Trustee to return to Association or to divert to others any
of the Trust assets before all payment of benefits have been made to participants and their
beneficiaries pursuant to the terms of the employment contract.

SECTION 5. INVESTMENT AUTHORITY.

     Trustee shall have the authority to invest in bonds and/or notes issued by the United States
Department of the Treasury, bonds issued by the various agencies of the government of the United
States, municipal bonds carrying an investment grade of not less than A, certificates of deposits
insured by the F.D.I.C., money market accounts and savings accounts provided same are insured by
the F.D.I.C., stocks, common and/or preferred, which, at the time of purchase, were rated in
Standard and Poor’s Stock Rating Book at not less than “B”, and Life Insurance products such as
Annuities.

SECTION 6. DISPOSITION OF INCOME.

     During the term of this Trust, all income received by the Trust, net of expenses and taxes,
shall be accumulated and reinvested.

SECTION 7. ACCOUNTING BY TRUSTEE.

     Trustee shall keep accurate and detailed records of all investments, receipts, disbursements,
and all other transactions required to be made, including such specific records as shall be agreed
upon in writing between Association and Trustee. Within 120 days following the close of each
calendar year and within 30 days after the removal or resignation of Trustee, Trustee shall deliver
to Association a written account of its administration of the Trust during such year or during the
period from the close of the last preceding year to the date of such removal or resignation,
setting forth all investments, receipts, disbursements, and other transactions effected by it,
including a description of all securities and investments purchased and sold with the cost or net
proceeds of such purchase or sales (accrued interest paid or receivable being shown separately),
and showing all cash, securities, and other property held in the Trust at the end of such year or
as of the date of such removal or resignation, as the case may be.

SECTION 8. RESPONSIBILITY OF TRUSTEE.

     (a) Trustee shall act with the care, skill, prudence and diligence under the circumstances
then prevailing that a prudent person acting in like capacity and familiar with such matters would
use in the conduct of an enterprise of a like character and with like aims, provided, however, that
Trustee shall incur no liability to any person for any action taken pursuant to a direction,
request, or approval given by Association which is contemplated by, and in conformity with, the
terms of the employment contract or this Trust and is given in writing by Association. In the event
of a dispute between Association and a party, Trustee may apply to a court of competent
jurisdiction to resolve the dispute or at Trustee’s discretion may require arbitration under the
rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association.

4

 

     (b) Trustee may hire agents, accountants, actuaries, investment advisors, financial
consultants, or other professional to assist it in performing any of its duties or obligations
hereunder.

     (c) Trustee shall have, without exclusion, all powers conferred on Trustees by applicable law,
unless expressly provided otherwise herein, provided, however, that if an insurance policy is held
as an asset of the Trust, Trustee shall have no power to name a beneficiary of the policy other
than the Trust, to assign the policy (as distinct from conversion of the policy to a different
form) other than to a successor Trustee, or, pursuant to Section 2(d), at termination of the Trust,
assign as directed by Beneficiary.

     (d) Notwithstanding any powers granted to Trustee pursuant to this Trust Agreement or to
applicable law, Trustee shall not have any power that could give this Trust the objective of
carrying on a business and dividing the gains therefrom, within the meaning of section 301.7701-2
of the Procedure and Administrative Regulations promulgated pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code.

SECTION 9. COMPENSATION AND EXPENSES OF TRUSTEE.

     Association shall pay all administrative and Trustee’s fees and expenses as are within the
limits established by the Association’s Board of Directors.

SECTION 10. RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL OF TRUSTEE.

     (a) Trustee may resign at any time by written notice to Association, which shall be effective
15 days after receipt of such notice unless Association and Trustee agree otherwise.

     (b) Trustee may be removed by Association on 15 days notice or upon shorter notice accepted by
Trustee.

     (c) Upon resignation or removal of Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee, all assets
shall be transferred to the successor Trustee.

SECTION 11. APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR.

     (a) If Trustee resigns or is removed, Association may appoint a successor Trustee to replace
Trustee. The appointment shall be effective when accepted in writing by the new Trustee, who shall
have all of the rights and powers of the former Trustee, including ownership rights in the Trust
assets. The former Trustee shall execute any instrument necessary or reasonably requested by
Association of the successor Trustee to evidence the transfer.

     (b) The successor Trustee need not examine the records and acts of any prior Trustee and may
retain or dispose of existing Trust assets. The successor Trustee shall not be responsible for and
Association shall indemnify and defend the successor Trustee from any claim or liability resulting
from any action or inaction of any prior Trustee or from any other past event, or any condition
existing at the time it becomes successor Trustee.

5

 

SECTION 12. AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION.

     (a) This Trust Agreement may be amended by a written instrument executed by Trustee and
Association. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment shall conflict with the terms of the
employment agreement or shall make the Trust revocable after it has become irrevocable in
accordance with Section 1(b) hereof.

     (b) The Trust shall not terminate until the date on which employee participants and their
beneficiaries are no longer entitled to benefits pursuant to the terms of the employment agreement.
Upon termination of the Trust any assets remaining in the Trust shall be returned to the
Association.

     (a) Any provision of this Trust Agreement prohibited by law shall be ineffective to the extent
of any such prohibition, without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof.

     (b) Benefits payable to participants and their beneficiaries under this Trust Agreement may
not be anticipated, assigned (either at law or in equity), alienated, pledged, encumbered or
subjected to attachment, garnishment, levy, execution or other legal or equitable process.

ARTICLE I

INTRODUCTION

	(a)	 	The purpose of the Fraternity Federal Savings and Loan Association Supplemental Executive
Retirement Plan (the “Plan”) is to assist Fraternity Federal Savings and Loan Association (the
“Association”) in retaining the services of key employees until their retirement, to induce
such employees to use their best efforts to enhance the business of the Association and its
affiliates, and to provide certain supplemental retirement benefits to such employees, which
cannot otherwise be provided under certain tax-qualified retirement plans.
	 
	(b)	 	The Plan, in relevant part, is intended to constitute an unfunded “excess benefit plan” as
defined in Section 3(36) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.
In this respect, the Plan is specifically designed to provide certain key employees with
retirement benefits that would have been provided under various tax-qualified retirement plans
sponsored by the Association but for the applicable limitations placed on benefits and
contributions under such plans by various provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended.

As of the last day of each plan year of the ESOP, the Employer shall credit the Participant’s
Supplemental ESOP Account with a Supplemental ESOP Benefit equal to the excess of (a) over (b),
where:

	(a)	 	Equals the annual contributions made by the Employer and/or the number of shares of Common
Stock released for allocation in connection with the repayment of an ESOP Acquisition Loan
that would otherwise be allocated to the accounts of the Participant under the ESOP for the
applicable plan year, if the provisions of the ESOP were administered without regard to any of
the Applicable Limitations; and
	 
	(b)	 	Equals the annual contributions made by the Employer and/or the number of shares of common
stock released for allocation in connection with the repayment of an ESOP Acquisition Loan
that are actually allocated to the accounts of the Participant under the provisions of the
ESOP for that particular plan year, after giving effect to any reduction of such allocation
required by any of the Applicable Limitations.

Section 4.02 Supplemental Stock Ownership Benefit.

	(a)	 	Upon a Change in Control, the Employer shall credit to the Participant’s Supplemental Stock
Ownership Account a Supplemental Stock Ownership Benefit equal to (i) less (ii), the result of
which is multiplied by (iii), where:

	 	(i)	 	Equals the total number of shares of Common Stock acquired with the proceeds of
all ESOP Acquisition Loans (together with any dividends, cash proceeds, or other medium
related to such ESOP Acquisition Loans) that would have been allocated or credited for
the benefit of the Participant under the ESOP and/or this Plan, as the case may be, had
the Participant continued in the employ of the Employer through the first ESOP
Valuation Date following the last scheduled payment of principal and interest on all
ESOP Acquisition Loans outstanding at the time of the Change in Control; and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	Equals the total number of shares of Common Stock acquired with the proceeds of
all ESOP Acquisition Loans (together with any dividends, cash proceeds, or other medium

Participant under the ESOP and/or this Plan, as the case may be, as of the first ESOP
Valuation Date following the Change in Control; and

Change in Control.

	(b)	 	For purposes of clause (i) of subsection (a) of this Section 4.02, the total number of shares
of Common Stock shall be determined by multiplying the sum of (i) and (ii) by (iii), where:

	 	(i)	 	Equals the average of the total shares of Common Stock acquired with the
proceeds of an ESOP Acquisition Loan and allocated for the benefit of the Participant
under the ESOP as of the three most recent ESOP Valuation Dates preceding the Change in
Control (or lesser number if the Participant has not participated in the ESOP for three
full years);

4

 

	 	(ii)	 	Equals the average number of shares of Common Stock credited to the
Participant’s Supplemental ESOP Account for the three most recent plan years of the
ESOP (such that the three most recent plan years coincide with the three most recent
ESOP Valuation Dates referred to in (i) above); and
	 
	 	(iii)	 	Equals the original number of scheduled annual payments on the ESOP
Acquisition Loan.

Section 4.03 Supplemental Savings Benefit.

A Participant’s Supplemental Savings Benefit under the Plan shall be equal to the excess of (a)
over (b), where:

	(a)	 	is the sum of the matching contributions and other contributions of the Employer that would
otherwise be allocated to an account of the Participant under the 401(k) Plan for a particular
year, if the provisions of the 401(k) Plan were administered without regard to any of the
Applicable Limitations; and

Participant’s accounts under the ESOP. Shares of Common Stock shall be valued under this Plan in
the same manner as under the ESOP. Cash contributions credited to a Participant’s Supplemental

Section 7.01 Claims Reviewer.

For purposes of handling claims with respect to this Plan, the “Claims Reviewer” shall be the
Committee, unless the Committee designates another person or group of persons as Claims Reviewer.

Section 7.02 Claims Procedure.

	(a)	 	An initial claim for benefits under the Plan must be made by the Participant or his
beneficiary or beneficiaries in accordance with the terms of this Section 7.02.
	 
	(b)	 	Not later than ninety (90) days after receipt of such a claim, the Claims Reviewer will
render a written decision on the claim to the claimant, unless special circumstances require
the extension of such 90-day period. If such extension is necessary, the Claims Reviewer
shall provide the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary or beneficiaries with written
notification of such extension before the expiration of the initial 90-day period. Such
notice shall specify the reason or reasons for the extension and the date by which a final
decision can be expected. In no event shall such extension exceed a period of ninety (90)
days from the end of the initial 90-day period.
	 
	(c)	 	In the event the Claims Reviewer denies the claim of a Participant or any beneficiary in
whole or in part, the Claims Reviewer’s written notification shall specify, in a manner
calculated to be understood by the claimant, the reason for the denial; a reference to the
Plan or other document or form that is the basis for the denial; a description of any
additional material or information necessary for the claimant to perfect the claim; an
explanation as to why such information or material is necessary; and an explanation of the
applicable claims procedure.
	 
	(d)	 	Should the claim be denied in whole or in part and should the claimant be dissatisfied with
the Claims Reviewer’s disposition of the claimant’s claim, the claimant may have a full and
fair review of the claim by the Committee upon written request submitted by the claimant or
the claimant’s duly authorized representative and received by the Committee within sixty (60)
days after the claimant receives written notification that the claimant’s claim has been
denied. In connection with such review, the claimant or the claimant’s duly authorized
representative shall be entitled to review pertinent documents and submit the claimant’s views
as to the issues, in writing. The Committee shall act to deny or accept the claim within
sixty (60) days after receipt of the claimant’s written request for review unless special
circumstances require the extension of such 60-day period. If such extension is necessary,
the Committee shall provide the claimant with written notification of such extension before
the expiration of such initial 60-day period. In all events, the Committee shall act to deny
or accept the claim within one hundred and twenty (120) days of the receipt of the claimant’s
written request for review. The action of the Committee shall be in the form of a written
notice to the claimant and its contents shall include all of the requirements for action on
the original claim.
	 
	(e)	 	In no event may a claimant commence legal action for benefits the claimant believes are due
the claimant until the claimant has exhausted all of the remedies and procedures afforded the

The Association may from time to time and at any time amend the Plan; provided, however, that such

benefit under the Plan to which the Participant or beneficiary may have previously become entitled
prior to the effective date of such amendment without the consent of the Participant or
beneficiary. The Committee shall be authorized to make minor or administrative changes to the
Plan, as well as amendments required by applicable federal or state law (or authorized or made
desirable by such statutes); provided, however, that such amendments must subsequently be ratified
by the Board of Directors.

ARTICLE IX

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 9.01 Unfunded, Unsecured Promise to Make Payments in the Future.

The right of a Participant or any beneficiary to receive a distribution under this Plan shall be an
unsecured claim against the general assets of the Association or its Affiliates, and neither a
Participant, nor his designated beneficiary or beneficiaries, shall have any rights in or against
any amount credited to any account under this Plan or any other assets of the Association or an
Affiliate. The Plan at all times shall be considered entirely unfunded both for tax purposes and
for purposes of Title I of ERISA. Any funds invested hereunder shall continue for all purposes to
be part of the general assets of the Association or an Affiliate and available to its general
creditors in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency. Accounts under this Plan and any benefits
which may be payable pursuant to this Plan are not subject in any manner to anticipation, sale,
alienation, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment, or garnishment by creditors of a
Participant or a Participant’s beneficiary. The Plan constitutes a mere promise by the Association
or Affiliate to make benefit payments in the future. No interest or right to receive a benefit may
be taken, either voluntarily or involuntarily, for the satisfaction of the debts of, or other
obligations or claims against, such Participant or beneficiary, including claims for alimony,
support, separate maintenance and claims in bankruptcy proceedings.

Section 9.02 Committee as Plan Administrator.

	(a)	 	The Plan shall be administered by the Committee designated by the Board of Directors of the
Association.
	 
	(b)	 	The Committee shall have the authority, duty and power to interpret and construe the
provisions of the Plan as it deems appropriate. The Committee shall have the duty and
responsibility of maintaining records, making the requisite calculations and disbursing the
payments hereunder. In

8

 

	 	 	addition, the Committee shall have the authority and power to delegate any of its
administrative duties to employees of the Association or an Affiliate, as they may deem
appropriate. The Committee shall be entitled to rely on all tables, valuations,
certificates, opinions, data and reports furnished by any actuary, accountant, controller,
counsel or other person employed or retained by the Association with respect to the Plan.
The interpretations, determinations, regulations and calculations of the Committee shall be
final and binding on all persons and parties concerned.

Section 9.03 Expenses.

Expenses of administration of the Plan shall be paid by the Association or an Affiliate.

Section 9.04 Statements.

The Committee shall furnish individual annual statements of accrued benefits to each Participant,
or current beneficiary, in such form as determined by the Committee or as required by law.

Section 9.05 Rights of Participants and Beneficiaries.

	(a)	 	The sole rights of a Participant or beneficiary under this Plan shall be to have this Plan
administered according to its provisions and to receive whatever benefits he may be entitled
to hereunder.
	 
	(b)	 	Nothing in the Plan shall be interpreted as a guaranty that any funds in any trust which may
be established in connection with the Plan or assets of the Association or an Affiliate will
be sufficient to pay any benefit hereunder.
	 
	(c)	 	The adoption and maintenance of this Plan shall not be construed as creating any contract of
employment or service between the Association or an Affiliate and any Participant or other
individual. The Plan shall not affect the right of the Association or an Affiliate to deal
with any Participants in employment or service respects, including their hiring, discharge,
compensation, and other conditions of employment or service.

Section 9.06 Incompetent Individuals.

The Committee may, from time to time, establish rules and procedures which it determines to be
necessary for the proper administration of the Plan and the benefits payable to a Participant or
beneficiary in the event that such Participant or beneficiary is declared incompetent and a
conservator or other person is appointed and legally charged with that Participant’s or
beneficiary’s care. Except as otherwise provided for herein, when the Committee determines that
such Participant or beneficiary is unable to manage his financial affairs, the Committee may pay
such Participant’s or beneficiary’s benefits to such conservator, person legally charged with such
Participant’s or beneficiary’s care, or institution then contributing toward or providing for the
care and maintenance of such Participant or beneficiary. Any such payment shall constitute a
complete discharge of any liability of the Association or an Affiliate and the Plan for such
Participant or beneficiary.

Section 9.07 Sale, Merger or Consolidation of the Association.

The Plan may be continued after a sale of assets of the Association, or a merger or consolidation
of the Association into or with another corporation or entity only if, and to the extent that, the
transferee, purchaser or successor entity agrees to continue the Plan. Additionally, upon a
merger, consolidation or other Change in Control, any amounts credited to Participant’s deferral
accounts shall be placed in a

9

 

grantor trust to the extent not already in such a trust. In the event that the Plan is not
continued by the transferee, purchaser or successor entity, then the Plan shall be terminated
subject to the provisions of Section 8.02 of the Plan. Any legal fees incurred by a Participant in
determining benefits to which such Participant is entitled under the Plan following a sale, merger,
or consolidation of the Association or an Affiliate of which the Participant is an Employee or, if
applicable, a member of the Board of Directors, shall be paid by the resulting or succeeding
entity.

Section 9.08 Location of Participants.

Each Participant shall keep the Association informed of his current address and the current address
of his designated beneficiary or beneficiaries. The Association shall not be obligated to search
for any person. If such person is not located within three (3) years after the date on which
payment of the Participant’s benefits payable under this Plan may first be made, payment may be
made as though the Participant or his beneficiary had died at the end of such three-year period.

Section 9.09 Liability of the Association and its Affiliates.

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, neither the Association nor any individual
acting as an employee or agent of the Association shall be liable to any Participant, former
Participant, beneficiary, or any other person for any claim, loss, liability or expense incurred in
connection with the Plan, unless attributable to fraud or willful misconduct on the part of the
Association or any such employee or agent of the Association.

Section 9.10 Governing Law.

All questions pertaining to the construction, validity and effect of the Plan shall be determined
in accordance with the laws of the United States and, to the extent not preempted by such laws, by
