		A.	Change
                                         in the Ownership of a Corporation. A change in the ownership of a corporation occurs
                                         on the date that any one person or persons acting as a group (as defined in Code Section
                                         409A), acquires ownership of stock of the corporation that, together with stock held
                                         by such person or group, constitutes more than fifty percent (50%) of the total fair
                                         market value or total voting power of the stock of such corporation. The acquisition
                                         of additional stock by the same person or group is not considered to cause a change in
                                         the ownership of the corporation.

		B.	Change
                                         in the Effective Control of a Corporation. A change in the effective control of the
                                         corporation shall be deemed to occur on either of the following dates:

(i)                
The date any one person, or persons acting as a group acquires (or has acquired during the twelve (12) month period ending
on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or group) ownership of stock of the corporation possessing thirty percent
(30%) or more of the total voting power of the stock of such corporation; or

(ii)              
The date a majority of members of the corporation’s board of directors is replaced during any twelve (12) month period
by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the members of the corporation’s board of directors
before the date of the appointment or election.

		C.	Change
                                         in the Ownership of a Substantial Portion of a Corporation’s Assets. A change
                                         in the ownership of a substantial portion of a corporation’s assets shall be deemed
                                         to occur on the date that any one person or group acquires (or has acquired during the
                                         twelve (12) month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person
                                         or persons) assets from the corporation that have a total gross fair market value equal
                                         to or more than forty percent (40%) of the total gross fair market value of all of the
                                         assets of the corporation immediately before such acquisition or acquisitions. No Change
                                         in Control shall result if the assets are transferred to certain entities controlled
                                         directly or indirectly by the shareholders of the transferring corporation.

In addition, to
constitute a Change in Control event with respect to the Executive, the Change in Control event must relate to (i) the corporation
for whom the Executive is performing services at the time of the Change in Control; (ii) The corporation that is liable for the
payment of the amounts described herein (or all corporations liable for the payment if more than one corporation is liable) but
only if either the deferred compensation is attributable to the performance of service by the Executive for such corporation(s)
or there is a bona fide business purpose for such corporation(s) to be liable for such payment and, in either case, no significant
purpose of making such corporation(s) liable for such payment is the avoidance of Federal income tax; or (iii) a corporation that
is a majority shareholder of a corporation identified in (i) or (ii) above, or any corporation in a chain of corporations in which
each corporation is a majority shareholder of another corporation in the chain, ending in a corporation identified in (i) or (ii)

performing services (and not as the result of Disability or a Termination for Cause).

1.13

if, after a Change of Control, the Executive Separates From Service on or after the occurrence of any of the below events and
such events occur without the Executive’s consent:

the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(n)(2)(ii)(A)(5)), provided that in no event shall a change in geographic location
of less than forty-five (45) miles be considered a material change in geographic location for purposes of this Agreement;

In the event of
any of the forgoing circumstances, the Executive shall provide notice to Bank of the existence of the conditions described above
within a period not to exceed ninety (90) days of the initial existence of said condition, upon the notice of which Bank must be
provided a period of at least thirty (30) days during which it may remedy the condition. If the condition is not remedied within
those thirty (30) days and Executive Voluntarily Terminates their employment following the initial occurrence of one or more of
these conditions, then such Separation From Service shall be deemed to have been for “Good Reason”.

1.20         
Termination of Employment and Separation From Service. The term “Termination of Employment”
(or “Terminates Employment”) as used in this Agreement shall be used interchangeably with the term “Separation
From Service” and shall be interpreted in accordance with the provisions of Code Section 409A and any related notices, guidance
or regulations. Whether a Separation From Service (or Termination of Employment) has occurred is determined based on whether the
facts and circumstances indicate that the Bank and Executive reasonably anticipate that no further services will be performed
after a certain date or that the level of bona fide services Executive will perform after such date (whether as an employee or
as an independent contractor) will permanently decrease to no more than twenty (20%) percent of the average level of bona fide
services performed (as an employee or an independent contractor) over the immediately preceding 36-month period (or the full period
of service if the employee has been providing services to the employer less than 36 months). There shall be no Separation From
Service while Executive is on military leave, sick leave or other bona fide leave of absence, as long as such leave does not exceed
six (6) months, or if longer, so long as Executive retains a right to reemployment with the Bank under an applicable statute or
by contract.

Contract of Employment. Although this Agreement is intended to provide Executive with additional
incentive to remain in the employ of the Bank, this Agreement shall not be deemed to constitute a contract of employment between
Executive and the Bank, nor shall any provision of the Agreement be applied to restrict or expand the right of the Bank to terminate
Executive’s employment with or without Cause. This Agreement shall have no impact or effect upon any separate written employment
agreement which Executive may have with the Bank, it being the parties’ intention and agreement that unless this Agreement
is specifically referenced in such employment agreement, then this Agreement (and the Bank’s obligations hereunder) shall
stand separate and apart and shall have no effect on, or be affected by, the terms and provisions of any employment agreement.
Unless stated otherwise, events of Termination of Employment shall be characterized, for purposes of interpreting this Agreement,
in accord with the definitions herein.

2.2             
Fringe Benefit. The benefits provided by this Agreement are granted by the Bank as a fringe
benefit to Executive and are not a part of any salary reduction plan or any arrangement deferring a bonus or a salary increase.
Executive has no option to take any current payments or bonus in lieu of the benefits provided by this Agreement.

2.3             
One Benefit Only. Despite any contrary provision contained in this Agreement, Executive
(or their Beneficiary(ies)) may only become entitled to one (1) benefit under this Agreement, which shall be determined by the
first event to occur under Sections 3 and 4 of this Agreement. The subsequent occurrence of events shall not entitle Executive
or their Beneficiary(ies) to other or additional benefits under this Agreement.

3.0             
Supplemental Compensation Benefit.

3.1             
Separation From Service on or After the Normal or Early Retirement Age.

		A.	Separation
                                         From Service on or After the Normal Retirement Age and for Any Reason Other than a termination
                                         For Cause. If Executive Separates From Service on or after attaining the
                                         Normal Retirement Age and for any reason other than a Termination For Cause, then they
                                         shall be entitled to receive an annual Executive Benefit equal to the Target Benefit
                                         Amount. This annual amount shall be paid by the Bank for Ten (10) years, in Twelve (12)
                                         substantially equal monthly installments, commencing on the first (1st) day of the first
                                         (1st) month immediately following Separation From Service and continuing until all such
                                         payments have been made (120 months).

		B.	Separation
                                         From Service on or After the Early Retirement Age (but before the Normal Retirement Age)
                                         and for Any Reason Other than a termination For Cause. If Executive Separates
                                         From Service on or after the Early Retirement Age and for any reason other than a Termination
                                         For Cause, then they shall be entitled to receive an annual Executive Benefit equal to
                                         the Applicable Percentage (as of the Separation From Service date) of the Target Benefit
                                         Amount; however, if such Separation From Service on or after the Early Retirement Age
                                         occurs after a Change in Control and is either (i) an Involuntary Termination or (ii)
                                         a Termination For Good Reason, then the Applicable Percentage shall be deemed to be One
                                         Hundred Percent (100%). The annual Executive Benefit shall be paid by the Bank for Ten
                                         (10) years, in Twelve (12) substantially equal monthly installments, commencing on the
                                         first (1st) day of the first (1st) month immediately following Separation From Service
                                         and continuing until all such payments have been made (120 months).

3.2             
Separation From Service Prior to Attaining the Early Retirement Age (other than as a result of a Termination
for Cause) and Absent a Change in Control. If there has been no Change in Control and Executive Separates From
Service prior to attaining the Early Retirement Age (other than due to a Termination For Cause as discussed below in Paragraph
3.5), then Executive shall be entitled to receive one (1) of the following benefit amounts, depending on the circumstances addressed
below:

		A.	Involuntary
                                         Termination. If Executive’s Separation From Service pursuant to

                                         Age, then they shall receive the Accrued Liability Balance as of the date of such Separation
                                         From Service, paid in a lump sum of the first (1st) day of the first (1st) month following
                                         such Separation.

		B.	Voluntary
                                         Termination. If Executive’s Separation From Service pursuant to

                                         neither Executive nor their Beneficiary(ies) shall be entitled to receive any benefit
                                         pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

                                         be what it would be on a date that is thirty-six (36) months after the actual Separation
                                         From Service date. The Net Present Value of the forgoing shall be paid in a lump sum
                                         on the first (1st) day of the first (1st) month following Separation From Service and
                                         shall be calculated assuming ten (10) years of monthly payments commencing upon Executive’s
                                         attainment of the Normal Retirement Age.

		B.	Voluntary
                                         Termination. If there has been a Change in Control and Executive Separates
                                         From Service prior to Attaining the Early Retirement Age as a result of a Voluntary Termination,
                                         then Executive shall receive the Accrued Liability Balance paid in a lump sum on the
                                         first (1st) day of the first (1st) month following such Separation From Service.

		A.	Death
                                         Prior to Separation From Service. In the event Executive dies prior to
                                         Separating From Service, then there are no death benefits payable under this Agreement.
                                         Any death benefits to be paid shall be pursuant to a split dollar agreement, if one exists.

		B.	Death
                                         After Becoming Entitled to Receive Payment, but Prior to Receiving Any or All Such Payments. If Executive dies after becoming entitled to benefits specified under the provisions
                                         of Section 3 above but prior to receiving any or all such payments, then Executive’s
                                         designated Beneficiary(ies) shall receive the remainder of such payments in the same
                                         amount and on the same schedule as Executive would have received had they survived.

5.0             
Limitations on Payments.

5.1             
Code Section 409A Delay in Payment. It is the intent of the parties to comply with all
applicable Internal Revenue Code Sections, including, but not limited to, Code Section 409A. Thus, any benefits payable to a Specified

such Separation From Service in order to comply with Code Section 409A, when applicable. In addition, for any individual affected
by this six (6) month delay in payment imposed by Code Section 409A, and when the benefit is payable in installments, the aggregate
amount of the first seven (7) months of installments shall be paid at the beginning of the seventh month following the date of

application for such life insurance, or (ii) for any other reason.

6.0             
Beneficiary Designation.

6.1             
Beneficiary Designation. Executive shall have the right, at any time and using the accompanying

distribution to the Executive of the benefits due. Each Beneficiary designation shall be in a written form and will be effective
only when filed with the Bank during Executive’s lifetime.

In addition to the
forgoing, a divorce will automatically revoke the portion of a Beneficiary Designation Form designating the former spouse as a
Beneficiary. The former spouse will be a Beneficiary under this Agreement only if a new such Beneficiary Designation Form naming
the former spouse as a Beneficiary is filed after the date the dissolution decree is entered.

6.2             
Amendments to Beneficiary Designation. Any Beneficiary Designation Form may be changed
by Executive without the consent of any designated Beneficiary by the filing of a new Beneficiary Designation Form with the Bank.

compensation is community property, any Beneficiary designation shall be valid or effective only as permitted under applicable
law.

    	10

    	 

    

6.3             
No Beneficiary Designation. In the absence of a valid or effective Beneficiary Designation
Form, or if all stated Beneficiaries predecease Executive or die prior to complete distribution of the Executive Benefit, then
Executive’s designated Beneficiary(ies) shall be deemed to be Executive’s estate.

6.4             
Doubt as to Beneficiary or Payment to a Minor or an Incompetent Person. If there is a doubt
as to the proper Beneficiary to receive payments pursuant to this Agreement, or payment is to be made to a minor or an incompetent
person, then the Bank shall have the right to withhold such payments until this matter is resolved or until proof of guardianship
or legal capacity is established.

6.5             
Effect of Payment to the Beneficiary. Payment to the deemed Beneficiary(ies) shall fully
and completely discharge the Bank from all further obligations under this Agreement.

7.0             
Right to Determine Funding Methods. The Bank reserves the right to determine, in its sole
and absolute discretion, whether, to what extent and by what method, if any, to provide for the payment of the amounts which may
be payable to Executive, under the terms of this Agreement. In the event that the Bank elects to fund this Agreement, in whole
or in part, through the use of life insurance or annuities, or both, the Bank shall determine the ownership and beneficial interests
of any such policy of life insurance or annuity. The Bank further reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to
terminate any such policy, and any other device used to fund its obligations under this Agreement, at any time, in whole or in
part. Consistent with Section 8.0 below, Executive shall have no right, title or interest in or to any funding source or amount
utilized by the Bank pursuant to this Agreement, and any such funding source or amount shall not constitute security for the performance
of the Bank’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement. In connection with the foregoing, Executive agrees to execute such
documents and undergo such medical examinations or tests which the Bank may request and which may be reasonably necessary to facilitate
any funding for this Agreement including, without limitation, the Bank’s acquisition of any policy of insurance or annuity.

of the Bank as a result of this Agreement; (ii) none of the Bank’s assets shall be held in or under any trust for the benefit
of Executive (other than in a rabbi trust) or held in any way as security for the fulfillment of the obligations of the Bank under
this Agreement; (iii) all of the Bank’s assets shall be and remain the general unpledged and unrestricted assets of the
Bank; (iv) the Bank’s obligation under this Agreement shall be that of an unfunded and unsecured promise by the Bank to
pay money in the future; and (v) Executive shall be an unsecured general creditor with respect to any benefits which may be payable
under the terms of this Agreement.

    	11

    	 

    

Notwithstanding
provisions (i) through (v) above, the Bank and Executive acknowledge and agree that, in the event that the Bank signs a definitive
agreement calling for a transaction that would result in a Change in Control, upon request of the Executive, or in the Bank’s
discretion if the Executive does not so request and the Bank nonetheless deems it appropriate, the Bank shall establish, not later
than the effective date of the change in control, a rabbi trust or multiple rabbi trusts (the “Trust” or “Trusts”)
upon such terms and conditions as the Bank, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate, in compliance with applicable provisions
of the Code, and, pursuant to the Trusts, the Bank shall promptly make contributions and/or transfer assets to the Trusts which
facilitate and are appropriate to the discharge of the Trusts’ obligations pursuant to this Agreement. The principal of the
Trust or Trusts and any earnings thereon shall be held separate and apart from other funds of the Bank to be used for discharge
of the Bank’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement and shall continue to be subject to the claims of the Bank’s general
creditors until paid to the Executive in such manner and at such times as specified in this Agreement.

9.0             
Opportunity To Consult With Independent Advisors. The Executive acknowledges that they
have been afforded the opportunity to consult with independent advisors of their choosing including, without limitation, accountants
or tax advisors and counsel regarding both the benefits granted under the terms of this Agreement and the (i) terms and conditions
which may affect Executive’s right to these benefits and (ii) personal tax effects of such benefits including, without limitation,
the effects of any federal or state taxes, Section 280G of the Code, and any other taxes, costs, expenses or liabilities whatsoever
related to such benefits, which in any of the foregoing instances Executive acknowledges and agrees shall be the sole responsibility
of Executive notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Agreement. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that the
Bank shall have no liability whatsoever related to any such personal tax effects or other personal costs, expenses, or liabilities
applicable to Executive and further specifically waives any right for themself, and their heirs, beneficiaries, legal representatives,
agents, successor and assign to claim or assert liability on the part of the Bank related to the matters described herein. Executive
further acknowledges that they have read, understood and hereby consent to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
and that they enter into this Agreement with a full understanding of its terms and conditions.

                                         Claim. The claimant may file a written request for such benefit to the Administrator.

		B.	Claim
                                         Decision. Upon receipt of such claim, the Administrator shall respond to such claimant
                                         within ninety (90) days after receiving the claim. If the Administrator determines that
                                         special circumstances require additional time for processing the claim, the Administrator
                                         can extend the response period by an additional ninety (90) days for reasonable cause
                                         by notifying the claimant in writing, prior to the end of the initial ninety (90) day
                                         period, that an additional period is required. The notice of extension must set forth
                                         the special circumstances and the date by which the Administrator expects to render its
                                         decision.

If the claim is denied in whole
or in part, the Administrator shall notify the claimant in writing of such denial. The Administrator shall write the notification
in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant. The notification shall set forth:

(i)                
The specific reasons for the denial;

(ii)              
The specific reference to pertinent provisions of the Agreement on which the denial is based;

(iii)            
A description of any additional information or material necessary for the claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation
of why such material or information is necessary;

(iv)            
Appropriate information as to the steps to be taken if the claimant wishes to submit the claim for review and the time limits
applicable to such procedures; and

(v)

determination on review.

		C.	Request
                                         for Review. Within sixty (60) days after receiving notice from the Administrator
                                         that a claim has been denied (in part or all of the claim), then claimant (or their duly
                                         authorized representative) may file with the Administrator, a written request for a review
                                         of the denial of the claim.

The claimant (or their duly authorized
representative) shall then have the opportunity to submit written comments, documents, records and other information relating to
the claim. The Administrator shall also provide the claimant, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies
of, all documents, records and other information relevant (as defined in applicable ERISA regulations) to the claimant’s
claim for benefits.

		D.	Decision
                                         on Review. The Administrator shall respond in writing to such claimant within sixty
                                         (60) days after receiving the request for review. If the Administrator determines that
                                         special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the claim, written
                                         notice of the extension shall be furnished to the claimant prior to the termination of
                                         the initial sixty (60) day period. In no event shall such extension exceed a period of
                                         sixty (60) days from the end of the initial period. The notice of extension must set
                                         forth the special circumstances requiring an extension of time and the date by which
                                         the Administrator expects to render its decision.

    	13

    	 

    

In considering the review, the
Administrator shall take into account all materials and information the claimant submits relating to the claim, without regard
to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination.

The Administrator shall notify
the claimant in writing of its decision on review. The Administrator shall write the notification in a manner calculated to be
understood by the claimant. The notification shall set forth:

(i)                
The specific reasons for the denial;

(ii)              
A reference to the specific provisions of the Agreement on which the denial is based;

of, all documents, records and other information relevant (as defined in applicable ERISA regulations) to the claimant’s
claim for benefits; and

(iv)            
A statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under ERISA Section 502(a).

		E.	Special
                                         Timing Rules for Disability Claims. In the event a claim above is a claim for disability
                                         benefits, then the applicable time periods for notifying claimants regarding benefits
                                         determinations shall be reduced as required by 29 CFR 2560.503-1 (I.e., (a) the ninety
                                         (90) day response time with the possibility of a ninety (90) day extension in Paragraph
                                         10.2B above shall be shortened to a forty-five (45) day response time with the possibility
                                         of a thirty (30) day extension, and (b) the sixty (60) day response time with the possibility
                                         of a sixty (60) day extension in shall be shortened to a forty- five (45) day response
                                         time with the possibility of a forty-five (45) day extension). In addition, in the event
                                         of a disability claim, the Bank shall identify any medical or vocational expert whose
                                         advice was obtained by the Plan in connection with the initial benefit determination,
                                         without regard to whether the advice was relied upon. If the review is from an adverse
                                         benefit determination that was based in whole or in part on a medical judgment, the Bank
                                         shall consult with a health care professional that has appropriate training and experience
                                         in the field of medicine involved in the medical judgment and who is neither the individual
                                         who was consulted in connection with the adverse benefit determination that is under
                                         review nor the subordinate of such individual. Any review of the denial of a claim made
                                         on account of disability shall be conducted by a person or persons who neither had any
                                         part in the initial benefit determination nor are subordinates of the persons who did.

health of the Bank, (ii) all termination distributions are made no earlier than twelve (12) months and no later than twenty-four
(24) months following such termination, and (iii) the Bank does not adopt any new arrangement that would be a Similar Arrangement

the Agreement;

the Bank may distribute the entire amount
accrued by the Bank with respect to the Bank’s obligations hereunder, determined as of the date of the termination of this Agreement,
to the Executive in a lump sum subject to the above terms.

at law or in equity, for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or separate maintenance obligations which may be owed by

12.3         
Non-waiver. The failure of either party to enforce at any time or for any period of time
any one or more of the terms or conditions of this Agreement shall not be a waiver of such term(s) or condition(s) or of that
party’s right thereafter to enforce each and every term and condition of this Agreement.

12.4         
Partial Invalidity/Severability. If any term, provision, covenant, or condition of this
Agreement is determined by an arbitrator or a court, as the case may be, to be invalid, illegal, void, or unenforceable, then
such term, provision, covenant, or condition shall be deemed ineffective and unenforceable and shall be deemed separable from
the remaining provisions of this Agreement. Further, such determination shall not render any other term, provision, covenant or
condition invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, and the remaining terms, provisions, covenants, and conditions of the Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such partial invalidity.

12.5         
Entire Agreement. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that no other representations,
inducements, promises, or agreements, oral or otherwise, have been made by any party, or anyone acting on behalf of any party,
which are not set forth herein, and that no other agreement, statement, or promise not contained in this Agreement shall be valid
or binding on either party with respect to the terms of this Agreement. Executive and the Bank understand, acknowledge and agree
that Executive and the Bank have entered into other agreements that contain either change-in-control terms or restrictive covenants,
including without limitation the Executive Employment Agreement. The parties understand, acknowledge and agree that the terms
of this Agreement are not intended by Executive or the Bank, and shall not be interpreted by any party, court or arbitrator, to
supersede, modify, amend, change, negate, cancel or render null or void any other terms or restrictive covenants between the parties
contained in any such other agreements (or any amendments or restatements thereof). This Agreement shall be separate and independent
from any other agreement by and between the Bank and Executive.

12.6         
Modifications. Any modification of this Agreement shall be effective only if it is in writing
and signed by each party or such party’s authorized representative.

12.7         
Paragraph Headings. The paragraph headings used in this Agreement are included solely for
the convenience of the parties and shall not affect or be used in connection with the interpretation of this Agreement.

12.8         
No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language
chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any person.

12.9         
Governing Law. The laws of the State of California, other than those laws denominated choice
of law rules, and where applicable, the rules and regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation, Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, or any other regulatory agency or governmental authority
having jurisdiction over the Bank, shall govern the validity, interpretation, construction and effect of this Agreement.

    	17

    	 

    

12.10     
Gender. Whenever in this Agreement words are used in the masculine, feminine or neuter
gender, they shall be read and construed as in the masculine, feminine or neuter gender, whenever they should so apply.

12.11     
Effect on Other Bank Benefit Plans. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall affect the
right of the Executive to participate in or be covered by any qualified or non-qualified pension, profit-sharing, group, bonus
or other supplemental compensation or fringe benefit plan constituting a part of the Bank’s existing or future compensation
structure.

12.12     
Tax Withholding and Reporting. The Bank shall withhold any taxes that are required to be
withheld, including but not limited to taxes owed under Code Section 409A from the benefits provided under this Agreement. The
Executive acknowledges that the Bank’s sole liability regarding taxes is to forward any amounts withheld to the appropriate
taxing authorities. The Bank shall satisfy all applicable reporting requirements, including those under Code Section 409A.

12.13     
Alternative Action. In the event it shall become impossible for the Bank or the Administrator
to perform any act required by this Agreement due to regulatory or other constraints, the Bank or the Administrator may perform
such alternative act as most nearly carries out the intent and purpose of this Agreement and is in the best interests of the Bank,
provided that such alternative act does not violate Code Section 409A.

12.14     
Deduction Limitation on Benefit Payments. Subject to the requirements of Code Section 409A,
if the Bank reasonably anticipates that the Bank’s deduction with respect to any distribution under this Agreement would
be limited or eliminated by application of Code Section l62(m), then to the extent deemed necessary by the Bank to ensure that
the entire amount of any distribution from this Agreement is deductible, the Bank may delay payment of any amount that would otherwise
be distributed under this Agreement. The delayed amounts shall be distributed to the Executive (or the Beneficiary in the event
of the Executive’s death) at the earliest date the Bank reasonably anticipates that the deduction of the payment of the
amount will not be limited or eliminated by application of Code Section 162(m).

12.15     
Compliance with Section 409A. This Agreement shall be interpreted and administered consistent
with Code Section 409A.

                                         (36) month period (or the full period of service if the employee has been providing services
                                         to the employer less than 36 months). There shall be no Separation From Service while

                                         as such leave does not exceed six (6) months, or if longer, so long as Executive retains
                                         a right to reemployment with the Bank under an applicable statute or by contract.

		2.	POLICY(IES)
                                         TITLE AND OWNERSHIP.

Title
and ownership of the Policy(ies) shall reside in the Bank for its use and for the use of the Insured all in accordance with this
Agreement. The Bank, in its sole discretion, may surrender or terminate the Policy(ies) at any time and for any reason. Where
the Bank and the Insured (or assignee, with the consent of the Insured) mutually agree to exercise the right to increase the coverage
under the subject Policy(ies), then, in such event, the rights, duties and benefits of the parties to such increased coverage
shall continue to be subject to the terms of this Agreement.

The
Bank (or the trustee, in the event of the establishment of a rabbi trust, at the direction of the Bank) may sell, surrender or
transfer ownership of the Policy to the Insurer or any third party, provided that, in the event of any such sale, surrender or
transfer prior to termination of this Agreement, the Bank (or Trustee) replaces the Policy with a life insurance policy or policies
on the life of the Insured providing death benefits that are at least as much as that of the Policy being replaced. The rights,
duties and benefits of the Bank, the Insured or the trustee with respect to any such replacement policy shall be subject to the
terms of this Agreement. At the request of the Bank, the Insured shall take any and all actions that the Bank determines may be
reasonably necessary for the sale, surrender or transfer of the Policy, the issuance of a replacement policy(ies), and subjecting
the replacement policy(ies) to the terms of this Agreement.

		3.	BENEFICIARY
                                         DESIGNATION RIGHTS.

The
Insured (or assignee) shall have the right and power to designate a “Beneficiary” or “Beneficiaries” to
receive the Insured’s share of the proceeds payable upon the death of the Insured, and to elect and change a payment option
for such Beneficiary, subject to any right or interest the Bank may have in such proceeds, as provided in this Agreement. If no
designated primary or secondary Beneficiary shall survive Insured, then all amounts due under this Agreement shall be paid to
Insured’s estate.

A
divorce will automatically revoke the portion of a Beneficiary Designation Form designating the former spouse as a Beneficiary.
The former spouse will be a Beneficiary under this Agreement only if a new such Beneficiary Designation Form naming the former
spouse as a Beneficiary is filed after the date the dissolution decree is entered.

		4.	PREMIUM
                                         PAYMENT METHOD.

Subject
to the Bank’s absolute right to surrender or terminate the Policy(ies) at any time and for any reason, the Bank shall pay
the premium required for each Policy as it becomes due.

		5.	TAXABLE
                                         BENEFIT.

Annually
the Insured will receive a taxable benefit equal to the assumed cost of insurance as required by the Internal Revenue Service.
The Bank will report to the Insured the amount of imputed income each year on Form W-2 or its equivalent. At the end of each calendar
year, the Bank shall pay to Insured an amount equal to an estimate of all federal and state income taxes incurred by Insured as
a result of the taxable benefit under this Paragraph (the "Reimbursement"). If, as a result of any Gross-up payments
made to Insured, Insured incurs additional tax liability, then the Bank shall provide an additional Reimbursement payment to Insured
to offset any additional tax liability ("Double Reimbursement").

		6.	DIVISION
                                         OF DEATH PROCEEDS.

Subject
to the provisions of Paragraph 8, the division of the death proceeds of the Policy(ies) is as follows:

		A.	In
                                         the event Insured has not yet Separated From Service at the time of death, then, upon
                                         Insured’s death, their Beneficiary(ies) shall be entitled to receive an amount
                                         equal to the lesser of One Hundred percent (100%) of the NAR or One Million Two Hundred
                                         Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,250,000).

		B.	Should
                                         Insured Separate From Service for any reason other than death (the circumstances of which
                                         are governed by Paragraph 6A), then neither Insured nor their Beneficiary(ies) shall
                                         be entitled to receive any amount of the Policy(ies) proceeds pursuant to this Agreement.

    	3

    	 

    
		C.	The
                                         Bank may select which Policy(ies) shall be used to pay benefits due under this Agreement.

		D.	The
                                         Bank and Insured (or assignees) shall share in any interest due on the death proceeds

                                         AND CLAIMS PROVISIONS.

The
following provisions are part of this Agreement and are intended to meet the requirements of ERISA:

    	4

    	 

    

		A.	Named
                                         Fiduciary and Plan Administrator.

The
Named Fiduciary and Plan Administrator (hereinafter “Administrator) of this Split Dollar Agreement shall be the Bank. The
Administrator may designate a replacement Administrator at any time, or may delegate to others certain responsibilities, including
the employment of advisors and the delegation of any ministerial duties to qualified individuals.

		B.	Dispute
                                         Over Benefits.

In
the event a dispute arises over the benefits under this plan and benefits are not paid to the Insured (or to Insured’s beneficiary[ies],
if applicable) and such claimants feel they are entitled to receive such benefits, then a written claim must be made to the Named
Fiduciary and Administrator named above in accordance with the following procedures:

		(i)	Written
                                         Claim. The claimant may file a written request for such benefit to the Plan Administrator.

		(ii)	Claim
                                         Decision. Upon receipt of such claim, the Administrator shall respond to such claimant
                                         within ninety (90) days after receiving the claim. If the Administrator determines that
                                         special circumstances require additional time for processing the claim, the Administrator
                                         can extend the response period by an additional ninety (90) days for reasonable cause
                                         by notifying the claimant in writing, prior to the end of the initial ninety (90) day
                                         period, that an additional period is required. The notice of extension must set forth
                                         the special circumstances and the date by which the Plan Administrator expects to render
                                         its decision.

If
the claim is denied in whole or in part, the Administrator shall notify the claimant in writing of such denial. The Administrator
shall write the notification in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant. The notification shall set forth:

		(a)	The
                                         specific reasons for the denial;

		(b)	The
                                         specific reference to pertinent provisions of the Agreement on which the denial is based;

		(c)	A
                                         description of any additional information or material necessary for the claimant to perfect
                                         the claim and an explanation of why such material or information is necessary;

		(d)	Appropriate
                                         information as to the steps to be taken if the claimant wishes to submit the claim for
                                         review and the time limits applicable to such procedures; and

		(e)	A
                                         statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under ERISA Section 502(a)
                                         following an adverse benefit determination on review.

    	5

    	 

    
		(iii)	Request
                                         for Review. Within sixty (60) days after receiving notice from the Administrator
                                         that a claim has been denied (in part or in its entirety), then claimant (or their duly
                                         authorized representative) may file with the Plan Administrator, a written request for
                                         a review of the denial of the claim.

The
claimant (or his duly authorized representative) shall then have the opportunity to submit written comments, documents, records
and other information relating to the claim. The Administrator shall also provide the claimant, upon request and free of charge,
reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records and other information relevant (as defined in applicable ERISA regulations)
to the claimant’s claim for benefits.

		(iv)	Decision
                                         on Review. The Administrator shall respond in writing to such claimant within sixty
                                         (60) days after receiving the request for review. If the Administrator determines that
                                         special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the claim, written
                                         notice of the extension shall be furnished to the claimant prior to the termination of
                                         the initial sixty (60) day period. In no event shall such extension exceed a period of
                                         sixty (60) days from the end of the initial period. The notice of extension must set
                                         forth the special circumstances requiring an extension of time and the date by which
                                         the Administrator expects to render its decision.

In
considering the review, the Administrator shall take into account all materials and information the claimant submits relating
to the claim, without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination.

The
Administrator shall notify the claimant in writing of its decision on review. The Administrator shall write the notification in
a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant. The notification shall set forth:

		(a)	The
                                         specific reasons for the denial;

		(b)	A
                                         reference to the specific provisions of the Agreement on which the denial is based;

		(c)	A
                                         statement that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge,
                                         reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records and other information relevant
                                         (as defined in applicable ERISA regulations) to the claimant’s claim for benefits;
                                         and

		(d)	A
                                         statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under ERISA Section 502(a).

    	6

    	 

    
		(v)	Special
                                         Timing and Rules for Disability Claims. In the event a claim above is a claim for
                                         disability benefits, then the applicable time periods for notifying claimants regarding
                                         benefit determinations shall be reduced as required by 29 CFR 2560.503-1. Thus, the Administrator
                                         shall provide notice to the claimant, within a reasonable period of time, but not later
                                         than forty-five (45) days after receipt of the claim. This period may be extended by
                                         up to thirty (30) days, provided that the Administrator both determines that such an
                                         extension is necessary due to matters beyond the control of the plan and notifies the
                                         claimant, prior to the expiration of the initial forty-five (45) day period, of the circumstances
                                         requiring the extension of time and the date by which the plan expects to render a decision.
                                         If, prior to the end of the first thirty (30) day extension period, the Administrator
                                         determines that, due to matters beyond the control of the plan, a decision cannot be
                                         rendered within that extension period, the period for making the determination may be
                                         extended for up to an additional thirty (30) days, provided that the Administrator notifies
                                         the claimant, prior to the expiration of the first thirty (30) day extension period,
                                         of the circumstances requiring the extension and the date as of which the plan expects
                                         to render a decision. In the case of any extension under this paragraph, the notice of
                                         extension shall specifically explain the standards on which entitlement to a benefit
                                         is based, the unresolved issues that prevent a decision on the claim, and the additional
                                         information needed to resolve those issues, and the claimant shall be afforded at least
                                         forty-five (45) days within which to provide the specified information. In addition to
                                         complying with such timing rules, a claim under this paragraph shall comply with all
                                         procedural requirements under ERISA and the Department of Labor, including but not limited
                                         to those rules designed to guarantee an impartial review of all claims, access to documentation
                                         and the basis for any decision, and including requirements that the claim be handled
                                         in a manner sensitive to any language barrier or impediment.

		11.	GENDER.

Whenever
in this Agreement words are used in the masculine, feminine or neuter gender, they shall be read and construed as in the masculine,
feminine or neuter gender, whenever they should so apply.

		12.	INSURANCE
                                         COMPANY NOT A PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT.

The
Insurer shall not be deemed a party to this Agreement but will respect the rights of the parties as herein developed upon receiving
an executed copy of this Agreement. Payment or other performance in accordance with the Policy(ies) provisions shall fully discharge
the Insurer from any and all liability.

		13.	SEVERABILITY
                                         AND INTERPRETATION.

If
a provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall nonetheless be enforceable
according to their terms. Further, in the event that any provision is held to be overbroad as written such provision shall be
deemed amended to narrow its application to the extent necessary to make the provision enforceable according to law and enforced
as amended.

		14.	APPLICABLE
                                         LAW.

The
laws of the State of California shall govern the validity and interpretation of this Agreement.

		15.	EFFECT
                                         OF THE LIFE INSURANCE POLICY’S CONTESTABILITY CLAUSES.

The
parties herein understand and agree that the payment of the benefits provided herein are subject to the Policy’s(ies’)
suicide and contestability clauses and other such clauses, and if such clauses preclude the Insurer from paying the full death
proceeds, then, in such event, no death benefits of whatever nature shall be payable to Insured’s (or Insured’s Assignees)
beneficiary(ies) under this Split Dollar Agreement.

This
Agreement shall be effective as of the date first set forth above.
