WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, the Company is a bank holding company controlling 100% of the issued and outstanding

“Bank”); and

     WHEREAS, Employee desires to become employed by the Company in an executive capacity as Senior
Vice President and Senior Credit Officer of the Company for a period of at least three (3) years,
and the Company desires to employ Employee to serve in such capacity, for the compensation and in

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

     1. Employment. The Company agrees to employ the Employee and the Employee agrees to
be employed by the Company in an executive capacity upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement
for a period of three (3) years from and after the date of this Agreement, and any extensions
thereafter, unless earlier terminated as provided in Section 9 hereof. At each anniversary of the
date of this Agreement, this Agreement shall be automatically extended for one additional year
unless the Company or the Employee gives the other party written notice of such party’s intention
not to extend the Agreement at least thirty (30) days prior to such anniversary date. Employee
agrees that he will accept employment as Senior Vice President and Senior Credit Officer of the
Company, without limitation of other titles, for the effective period of this Agreement. The
Employee’s primary location of employment during the term of this Agreement shall be in Saint
Louis, Missouri unless the Employee consents in writing to relocate to another geographic location.

     2. Compensation. For all services rendered by the Employee to the Company, the
Company shall pay the Employee a salary of not less than one hundred fifty thousand dollars
($150,000) per year, payable in accordance with the customary payroll practices of the Company, but
in no event less frequently than monthly. Salary payments shall be subject to withholding and
other applicable taxes. Employee shall be eligible for merit-based increases in compensation on
the terms and conditions offered to employees of the Company generally having responsibilities
commensurate to that of Employee. Employee shall be eligible to participate in such bonus or other

1

 

that of Employee, provided that in any given fiscal year, the bonus compensation to the Employee
shall not be less than 20% of Employee’s base salary.

     3. Expenses. The Company shall reimburse the Employee for all ordinary and necessary
expenses incurred and paid by the Employee in the course of the performance of the Employee’s
duties pursuant to this Agreement and consistent with the Company’s policies in effect from time to
time with respect to travel, entertainment, other business expenses, and expenses relating to
memberships in business organizations, including without limitation the Risk Management Association
and the Certified Fraud Examiners Association. Reimbursement of such expenses shall be subject to
the Company’s requirements with respect to the manner of reporting such expenses.

     4. Additional Benefits. The Employee shall be eligible for such fringe benefits, if
any, by way of insurance, hospitalization, vacations, stock bonus plans, and profit sharing plans
normally provided to employees of the Company generally having responsibility commensurate to that
of the Employee and such additional benefits as may be from time to time agreed upon in writing
between the Employee and the Company; and further provided, to that there shall be no waiting
period for eligibility to participate in such additional benefits. The Company shall provide to
the Employee a new Company owned or leased automobile of a year, make, and model agreed to between
the Company and the Employee, befitting the executive office held by Employee not less than every

wholesale value to be agreed upon between the Company and Employee. The tax treatment of all
fringe benefits shall be handled in a manner consistent with the customary practices of the Bank

maintain and preserve such records and make all reports as the Company may require, and (v) fully
account for all monies and other property of the Company of which he may from time to time have
custody and deliver the same to the Company whenever and however directed to do so.

     6. Covenant Not To Disclose Confidential Information. The Employee acknowledges that
during the course of his employment with the Company he has or will have access to and knowledge of
certain information and data which the Company considers confidential and that the release of such
information or data to unauthorized persons would be extremely detrimental to the Company. As a
consequence, the Employee hereby agrees and acknowledges that he owes a duty to the Company not to
disclose, and agrees that, during or after the term of his employment, without the prior written
consent of the Company he will not

2

 

communicate, publish or disclose, to any person anywhere or use any Confidential Information (as
hereinafter defined) for any purpose other than carrying out his duties as contemplated by this
Agreement. The Employee will use his best efforts at all times to hold in confidence and to
safeguard any Confidential Information from falling into the hands of any unauthorized person and,
in particular, will not permit any Confidential Information to be read, duplicated, or copied. The
Employee will return to the Company all Confidential Information in the Employee’s possession
thereof, or whenever the Company shall so request, and in any event will promptly return all such
Confidential Information if the Employee’s relationship with the Company is terminated for any
reason and will not retain any copies thereof. The term “Confidential Information” shall mean any
information or data used by or belonging or relating to the Company that is not known generally to
the banking community, including without limitation, any and all proprietary data and information
relating to the Company’s or the Bank’s past, present or future business plans, services offered,
financial information, customer lists, and other information concerning customers, depositors, and
borrowers of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, whether or not reduced to writing, or
information or data which the Company advises the Employee should be treated as confidential
information.

     7. Covenant Not To Compete. The Employee agrees that during the term of his
employment by the Company, and for a period of two (2) years from and after the termination of such
employment for any reason other than a termination by the Employee pursuant to Section 9(c), he
will not, directly or indirectly, without the express written consent of the Company:

     a. own, manage, operate, control, or participate in the ownership, management,
operation, control, or financing of, or have any interest, financial or otherwise, in or act
as an officer, director, partner, principal, employee, agent, representative, consultant, or

other financial institution (other than the Bank) that is located or has an office in Cole
County, Missouri.

     b. solicit for employment or hire any employees of the Bank; or

     c. solicit, or interfere with, any contracts or business relationships with any
customer, depositor, or borrower of the Bank.

     8. Remedies. In the event that the Employee breaches any of the foregoing covenants
and assurances contained in Section 6 or 7, the Company and it successors and assigns, in addition
to such other remedies which may be available to them, shall be entitled to an injunction,
including a mandatory injunction, to be issued by any court of competent jurisdiction ordering
compliance with this Agreement or enjoining or restraining the Employee, and each and every person,
firm, or company acting in concert or participation with him, from the continuation of such breach.
Should a court of competent jurisdiction find that an actual breach occurred, the Employee shall
pay to the Company all ascertainable damages, including costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees
sustained by the Company by reason of the breach of said covenant and assurances. The obligations
of the Employee and the rights of the

3

 

Company, its successors and assigns under Sections 6 and 7 of this Agreement shall survive the
termination of this Agreement. The covenant and the obligations of the Employee set forth in
Sections 6 and 7 are in addition to and not in lieu of or exclusive of any other obligations and
duties of the Employee to the Company, whether express or implied in fact or in law.

     9. Termination Prior to Change in Control.

     a. This Agreement shall terminate immediately upon the death, disability, or
adjudication of legal incompetence of the Employee. Termination pursuant to this
subparagraph (a) shall not affect any benefits Employee or Employee’s successors may be
entitled to under any life or disability policy provided to the Employee by the Company.
For purposes of this Agreement, the Employee shall be deemed disabled when the Employee has
become unable, by reason of physical or mental disability, to satisfactorily perform his
essential job duties and there is no reasonable accommodation that can be provided to enable
him to be a qualified individual with a disability under applicable law. Such matters shall
be determined by, or to the reasonable satisfaction of, the Board of Directors of the
Company.

     b. This Agreement may be terminated by the Company upon notice to the Employee for
“Cause.” For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean the occurrence of any of the
following events:

     i. Performance by the Employee of illegal or fraudulent acts, criminal conduct
or willful misconduct, or gross negligence relating to the activities of the Company
or the Bank;

     ii. Performance by the Employee of any criminal acts involving moral turpitude
having a material adverse effect upon the Company or the Bank, including, without
limitation, upon their profitability, reputation, or goodwill;

     iii. Failure by the Employee to perform his duties in a manner which he knows,
or has reason to know, to be in the Company’s or the Bank’s best interests, which he
fails to cure within thirty days after receiving written notice thereof;

     iv. Continued conduct by the Employee that is damaging to the business,
employee, or customer relations of the Company or the Bank and which is ongoing more
than thirty days after receiving written notice from the Company or the Bank to
cease such conduct; or

     v. Any other material breach of the Employee’s obligations under this Agreement
which is incurable or which he fails to cure within thirty days after receiving
written notice thereof.

4

 

     c. This Agreement may be terminated by the Employee upon written notice to the Company
in the event of a material breach of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement which is
incurable or which the Company fails to cure within 15 days after receiving written notice
thereof.

     d. In the event this Agreement is terminated for Cause, the parties’ obligations under
this Agreement shall terminate immediately (except as otherwise provided herein), and
neither the Employee nor his estate, heirs, successors, or assigns shall be entitled to any
further compensation under the Agreement other than payment of any unpaid severance or
compensation that accrued prior to such termination; provided, however, that the termination
of this Agreement pursuant to subsections (b) or (c) of this Section shall not limit any
other remedies to which the terminating party may be entitled to in law or equity as a
result of any breach of this Agreement by the other Party.

     e. In the event that the Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated by the
Company, other than for “Cause,” or if the Employee shall voluntarily terminate his
employment pursuant to subsection (c) of this section, then, in either case, the Company
agrees to continue to pay to Employee his monthly salary as in effect at the time of
termination for the remaining effective period under the Agreement, but in any scenario for
no less than twelve (12) months, following the date of termination of employment, and during
such period shall also continue to pay the Employee’s insurance benefit costs up to the
dollar amount paid by the Company during the year immediately prior to such termination;
provided, however, in the event of a “Change of Control,” as defined in that certain
Agreement attached as Appendix A and incorporated herein (the “Change of Control
Agreement”), the provisions of the Change of Control Agreement will apply. To the extent
there are any inconsistent provisions in the Change of Control Agreement and the Employment
Agreement, the Change of Control Agreement will control, invalidating any inconsistent or
duplicative provision in the Employment Agreement.

     f. Transfer of the Employee to a successor or permitted assign of the Company which
shall offer employment to Employee on comparable terms as the Company shall not be
considered termination of Employment for purposes of this Agreement. Any such offer of
employment which requires relocation by Employee shall not be considered comparable.
Further, any required change in geographic location, whether or not it follows a Change of
Control, if not accepted by Employee, shall constitute a termination without “Cause,” and
further shall relieve Employee of his obligations under Section 7 and entitle Employee to
the payment specified in Section 9(e). Should Employee agree to change in geographic
location, the Company shall reimburse Employee for all costs associated with moving to the
new geographic location, including without limitation the costs of moving Employee’s
personal belongings and other property.

assets of the Company to assume expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same

the terms, covenants, or conditions of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of the term,

the execution nor delivery of this Agreement, nor the performance of the Employee’s obligations
hereunder will conflict with, or result in a breach of, any term, condition, or provision of, or
constitute a default under, any obligation, contract, agreement, covenant, or instrument to which
the Employee is a party or under which the Employee is bound, including without limitation, the
breach by the Employee of a fiduciary duty to any former employers.

	Name:
	 	 
	Title:

	 	January 1, 2008
	 
	 	 

Plan Description

Cash — Annualized

Target Pay: $_________

Guaranteed Pay: $_________

Incentive Details

2008 Key Executive

Incentive Compensation Plan

Monthly Incentive Formula

(Actual YTD EBT / Plan YTD EBT times YTD Target Pay) minus YTD Guaranteed Pay = Incentive Payout

Year-End Incentive Formula

(EBITDA minus Maintenance Capital Expenditures plus Rent Expense minus Taxes) / [Average Working
Capital plus Average Fixed Assets plus (Rent Expense multiplied by 7)]

In connection with applying the year-end incentive formula, the amount of the payout, or pay-back,
is dependent upon the relationship of actual ROIC to planned ROIC. The maximum payout, or
pay-back, is capped at ten percent (10%) of the variable component of Target Pay (that is, Target
Pay minus Guaranteed Pay). No payout or pay-back occurs if actual ROIC equals planned ROIC. The
maximum payout would be earned if actual ROIC is greater than planned ROIC by twenty-five
hundredths of a basis point (00.25%) and the maximum pay-back would be withheld if actual ROIC is
less than planned ROIC by twenty-five hundredths of a basis point (00.25%). The actual payout or
pay-back, as the case may be, will be determined by applying this formula on a straight-line basis.

the EBT component to offset the future negative variance.

month-end close (24th of the following month). The incentive amount reflects the

month-end close, typically January 24th of the following year.

Plan Eligibility

	•	 	Eligibility for a payout is cancelled when a plan participant voluntarily or involuntarily
terminates employment before the payout date.

	•	 	If the plan participant moves to a new position during the period, which has a different
target pay opportunity, any incentive payments will be prorated for time in the respective
positions.

	•	 	Newly hired or promoted plan participants are eligible for plan participation beginning
with the first day of the month following their hire date.

	•	 	A pro-rated payment of the earned monthly incentive payout will be made if plan participant
