AGREEMENT

1.

Grant of Award.  The Company hereby grants to the Grantee the Restricted Stock Units, subject to the terms, definitions and provisions of the Plan and this Agreement.  All terms, provisions, and conditions applicable to the Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Plan and not set forth herein are incorporated by reference.  To the extent any provision hereof is inconsistent with a provision of the Plan the provisions of the Plan will govern.  All capitalized terms that are used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan. 

2.

Vesting and Settlement of Award.

a.

Right to Award.  This Award shall vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth above (the "Vesting Schedule") and with the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Agreement.  

 

b.

Settlement of Award.  The vested portion of this Award shall be settled as soon as practicable following the vesting date set forth in the Vesting Schedule, but in no event later than March 15 of the year following the year in which the Award vests. 

The Company may require the Grantee to furnish or execute such documents as the Company shall reasonably deem necessary (i) to evidence such settlement and (ii) to comply with or satisfy the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Exchange Act, Section 409A of the Code or any Applicable Laws.

    

c.

Method of Settlement.  The Company shall deliver to the Grantee one Share for each vested Restricted Stock Unit, less any Shares withheld in accordance with Paragraph 2(e) of this Agreement.  Share certificates shall be issued in the name of the Grantee (or of the person or persons to whom such Restricted Stock Units were transferred in accordance with Paragraph 4 of this Agreement).

d.

Dividend Equivalents.  If a cash Dividend is declared on the Shares, the Grantee shall be credited with a Dividend Equivalent in an amount of cash equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units held by the Grantee as of the dividend record date, multiplied by the amount of the cash dividend paid per Share.  Such Dividend Equivalent shall be paid if and when the underlying Restricted Stock Units are settled.  If a Share Dividend is declared on the Shares, the Grantee shall be credited with a Dividend Equivalent in an amount of Shares equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units held by the Grantee as of the dividend record date, multiplied by the amount of the Share dividend distributed per Share.  Such Dividend Equivalent shall be settled if and when the underlying Restricted Stock Units are settled, rounded down to the nearest whole share.  Dividend Equivalents shall not accrue interest prior to the date of payment or settlement, as applicable.  

e.

Taxes.  Pursuant to Section 14 of the Plan, the Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require the Grantee to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy any applicable tax withholding requirements applicable to this Award.  The Company may condition the delivery of Shares upon the Grantee’s satisfaction of such withholding obligations. To the extent permitted by the Committee, the Grantee may elect to satisfy all or part of such withholding requirement by tendering previously-owned Shares or by having the Company withhold Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum statutory tax withholding rate that could be imposed on the transaction (or such other rate that will not result in a negative accounting impact).  Such election shall be irrevocable, made in writing, signed by the Grantee, and shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate.

3.

Termination of Employment.  If the Grantee's employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries is terminated, due to the Grantee's (i) Retirement or (ii) death, the Award shall become 100% vested on the date of such termination of employment.  

When the Grantee's employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries terminates (except when due to Retirement or death), this Award shall be forfeited immediately with respect to the number of Restricted Stock Units for which the Award is not yet vested.  If the Grantee dies after termination of employment, but before the settlement of the Award, all or part of this Award may be settled by payment to the personal representative of the Grantee or by any person who has acquired this Award directly from the Grantee but only to the extent that the Award was vested upon termination of the Grantee’s employment. 

4.

Transferability of Award.

  

The Award may not be transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise disposed of, except (i) by will or the laws of descent and distribution or (ii) for no consideration, subject to such rules and conditions as may be established by the Committee, to a member or members of the Grantee’s Immediate Family.  For purposes of this Award Agreement, the Grantee’s "Immediate Family" means the Grantee's children, stepchildren, grandchildren, parents, stepparents, grandparents, spouse, former spouse, siblings, nieces, nephews, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships or any person sharing the Grantee's household (other than a tenant or employee). 

5.

Miscellaneous Provisions.  

a.

Rights as a Stockholder.  Neither the Grantee nor the Grantee's representative shall have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares subject to this Award, except as provided in Paragraph 2(d), until the Award has vested and Share certificates, if any, have been issued to the Grantee, transferee or representative, as the case may be.  

b.

Regulatory Compliance and Listing.  The issuance or delivery of any certificates representing Shares issuable pursuant to this Agreement may be postponed by the Committee for such period as may be required to comply with any applicable requirements under the federal or state securities laws, any applicable listing requirements of the New York Stock Exchange, and any applicable requirements under any other Applicable Law, and the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any such Shares to the Grantee if either delivery thereof would constitute a violation of any provision of any law or of any regulation of any governmental authority or the New York Stock Exchange, or the Grantee shall not yet have complied fully with the provisions of Paragraph 2(e) hereof.  The Company shall not be liable to the Grantee for any damages relating to any delays in issuing the certificates to the Grantee, any loss of the certificates, or any mistakes or errors in the issuance of the certificates or the certificates themselves.

c.

Choice of Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, excluding any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the substantive law of another jurisdiction.  

d.

Modification or Amendment.  This Agreement may only be modified or amended by written agreement executed by the parties hereto; provided, however, that the adjustments permitted pursuant to Section 16 and Section 18(b) of the Plan may be made without such written agreement. 

e.

Severability.  In the event any provision of this Agreement shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining provisions of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal or invalid provision had not been included.

f.

References to Plan.  All references to the Plan shall be deemed references to the Plan as may be amended.

g.

Headings.  The captions used in this Agreement are inserted for convenience and shall not be deemed a part of this Award for construction or interpretation.

h.

Interpretation.  Any dispute regarding the interpretation of this Agreement shall be submitted by the Grantee or by the Company forthwith to the Board or the Committee, which shall review such dispute at its next regular meeting.  The resolution of such dispute by the Board or the Committee shall be final and binding on all persons.  

i.

Section 409A Compliance.  To the extent applicable, it is intended that the Plan and this Agreement comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and any related regulations or other guidance promulgated with respect to such Section by the U.S. Department of the Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service ("Section 409A").  Any provision of the Plan or this Agreement that would cause this Award to fail to satisfy Section 409A shall have no force or effect until amended to comply with Section 409A, which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted by Section 409A.

j.

Signature in Counterparts.  This Agreement may be signed in counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

      the community and to promote the good name of the Bank and Bancorp. This
      Employment Agreement shall not be interpreted to prohibit Morales from making
      passive personal investments or conducting personal business affairs if those
      activities do not materially interfere with the services required under this
      Employment Agreement.

    

    4. Term

    

    a. The
      term
      of this Employment Agreement is for four (4) years commencing as of January
      1,
      2006 through and including December 31, 2009. The term shall be automatically
      extended for an additional year at the end of each year thus making it a three
      (3) year "rolling" contract, unless the Board of Directors of the Bank or the
      Bancorp elects not to renew the term by giving written notice to Morales by
      September 1 of the year in which the Directors decide not to renew the
      term.

    

    b. All
      parties to the Employment Agreement shall have the absolute right to terminate
      the Employment Agreement at any time in accordance with the terms and conditions
      described below. Notwithstanding the fact that some provisions of the Employment
      Agreement may refer to future dates beyond the termination date of the
      Employment Agreement, nothing in the Employment Agreement shall in any way
      grant
      any future employment under the terms of the Employment Agreement beyond the
      termination date except as set forth above. Nothing in the Employment Agreement
      shall in any way obligate either party to have a future employment relationship
      except as set forth in the Employment Agreement.

    

    5. Salary.
      Morales
      shall receive a base salary of four hundred seventy-five thousand dollars
      ($475,000.00) per year, payable in equal monthly installments during the term
      of
      his employment. This shall remain as Morales’ base salary until it is increased
      in the sole discretion of the Boards of Directors of the Bank and Bancorp,
      which
      shall review said salary at the end of every calendar year and render a decision
      by January 31 of the following calendar year whether to increase said salary.
      These Boards may not, however, decrease said salary, other than as part of
      an
      across-the-board salary decrease that affects substantially all the executives
      and/or employees of the Bank and Bancorp. The Bank and Bancorp shall allocate
      Morales’ annual salary expense between them, in their sole discretion.

    

    6. Incentive
      Bonus.
      For
      calendar years 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009, the Bancorp shall determine an
      incentive bonus to Morales, on the terms described hereinafter. The computation
      of this incentive bonus shall be based on Morales’ accrued base salary for the
      applicable calendar year, subject to a maximum of one hundred twenty percent
      (120%) of said accrued base salary. Any incentive bonus payable shall be paid
      to
      Morales no later than fifteen (15) days after the Bancorp’s receipt of the
      audited financial statements for the year in question but within the time period
      to be deductible in the prior year. This incentive bonus shall be based on
      measurements of the Bancorp’s performance for the calendar year in question, in
      accordance with the schedules below. As used in the schedules below, “Return on
      Average Common Equity” shall mean the return on average common equity of the
      Bancorp for the year ending December 31 in the calendar year for which the
      incentive bonus is being determined, and “EPS Growth” shall mean the growth in
      the annual earnings per share of the Bancorp on a fully diluted basis for the
      year ending December 31 in the calendar year for which the incentive bonus
      is
      being determined as compared to the annual earnings per share as of December
      31
      for the immediately preceding calendar year.

    7. Severance
      Payment and Benefits upon a Change in Control.

    

    a. If
      Morales maintains his employment for twelve (12) months following a Change
      in
      Control, as defined below, on substantially the same terms as this Employment
      Agreement, including, but not limited to his then current salary level, then
      no
      severance payment will be due to Morales hereunder. For purposes of this
      Employment Agreement, “Change in Control” shall have the same meaning ascribed
      to such term in the 2006 Incentive Stock Plan of Vineyard National Bancorp
      (“2006 Plan”).

    

    b. In
      the
      event that Morales is terminated or there is a material decrease in his
      responsibilities, duties or title as set forth herein at any time during the
      twelve (12) month period following a Change in Control, then upon the occurrence
      of such event, Morales shall be entitled to: (i) receive a lump sum cash
      severance payment equal to two times Morales’ base salary for the immediately
      preceding 12 month period plus
      two
      times his bonus earned for the 12 month period immediately preceding the Change
      in Control, and (ii) continue participating in all group insurance, life
      insurance, health, accident and disability plans, programs and arrangements
      in
      which Morales was entitled to participate immediately prior to the Change in
      Control for a period of twenty-four (24) months at no cost to Morales. The
      severance payment is to be paid as agreed upon between the Bank and Morales
      as a
      severance payment and Morales' employment with the Bank shall terminate. This
      severance payment is to be made irrespective of whether Morales is terminated
      for cause or not at the time, as long as a Change in Control event has occurred
      and his position or title is materially changed within the 12 month period
      following the Change in Control. 

    

    c. Notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary contained herein, any and all stock options, shares
      of
      restricted stock or other equity awards granted to Morales by the Bank or the
      Bancorp shall immediately become vested and exercisable upon a Change in
      Control. 

    

    8. Stock
      Options.
      

    

    a. Effective
      two (2) days after the next public release of the Bancorp’s quarterly earnings
      which occurs on or after the effective date of this Employment Agreement and
      on
      the tenth (10th) day after the release of the Bancorp’s audited financial
      statements of annual earnings for calendar years 2006, 2007 and 2008, so long
      as
      Morales is employed by the Bank on said day the Board of Directors shall grant
      Morales incentive stock options to buy fifty thousand (50,000) shares of common
      stock of the Bancorp, with the purchase price of each such share being one
      hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value (“FMV”) of a share of Bancorp
      common stock on the date of the option grant (unless otherwise determined by
      the
      Bancorp, FMV shall be the closing price of a share of stock on the date of
      option grant), with the term of each such option being four (4) years from
      the
      date of option grant, and with said options not becoming vested until the third
      (3rd) anniversary of the date of option grant, and then being one hundred
      percent (100%) vested. Except as provided hereinabove or hereinafter, the terms
      and conditions of the 2006 Plan shall apply to such option grants for all
      conditions and events. In accordance with the Original Employment Agreement
      and
      the provisions of this paragraph, the Board of Directors previously granted
      to
      Morales stock options to buy fifty thousand (50,000) shares of common stock
      of
      the Bancorp on each of October 30, 2006 (the date two [2] days after the first
      public press release of Bancorp earnings after the effective date of this
      Employment Agreement) and March 19, 2007 (the date ten [10] days after the
      release of the Bancorp’s audited financial statements for the 2006 calendar
      year).

    

    b. In
      addition to the accelerated vesting provisions under Section 7(c) hereof, in
      the
      event of Morales’s death, disability or termination without cause, his stock
      options will vest only if permitted under the applicable Stock Option Agreement
      with respect to the options granted thereby, the 2006 Plan, or if accelerated
      by
      the Plan Administrator at its discretion in accordance with the 2006
      Plan.

    

    9. Restricted
      Stock Grants.
      Restricted stock grants will be considered after the stock options which have
      been granted are vested. However, the Board has the discretion to grant such
      stock grants as a bonus. 

    

    10. Country
      Club Membership.
      Morales
      will present to the Board of the Bank information about membership in a local
      country club. The Bank will own the membership and is to approve the location
      of
      the club and cost of the membership. Said membership may be exercised by Morales
      and his family at the discretion of the Board.

    

    11. Automobile
      Allowance.
      The
      Bank will provide Morales with an automobile allowance in the amount of one
      thousand five hundred dollars ($1,500.00) a month to be used to pay for a leased
      automobile by the Bank in the performance of his duties on behalf of the Bank
      and Bancorp during the term of this Employment. In the event that the lease
      amount exceeds one thousand five hundred dollars ($1,500) a month, Morales
      will
      reimburse the Bank the difference. The Bank will also pay all the operating
      costs of the automobile in addition to paying for gasoline for the automobile
      when used on behalf of the Bank and Bancorp during the term of this Employment
      Agreement. Morales will reimburse the Bank and Bancorp for personal use of
      the
      automobile.

    

    12. Expenses.
      Morales
      shall be entitled to reimbursement by Bank for any expenses reasonably and
      necessarily incurred in the performance of his duties on behalf of the Bank
      and
      Bancorp during the term of this Employment Agreement which the Board of
      Directors of the Bank deems satisfactorily documented.

    

    13. Personal
      Time Off.
      During
      the term of this Employment Agreement, Morales shall be entitled to five (5)
      weeks of paid personal time off per year, or according to the amounts and
      conditions as outlined in the Bank's Employee Handbook.

    

    14. Insurance
      Benefits and Deferred Compensation.
      Bank
      and Bancorp shall provide Morales at the Bank's expense with full participation
      in the Bank's present accident, health and term life insurance benefit programs
      for the maximum benefits available through the California Banker's Association
      Group Insurance program or through any equivalent program which the Bank
      subsequently adopts. Morales shall also have available to him any of the
      deferred compensation programs to which he is eligible as an employee of the
      Bank and Bancorp, which benefits and rights shall be governed solely by that
      program and not this Employment Agreement.

    

    15.
       Termination.
      Morales, the Bank, or the Bancorp may terminate this Employment Agreement only
      under the following terms and conditions:

    

    a. At
      any
      time during the term of this Employment Agreement, Morales may resign from
      his
      employment with the Bank and Bancorp by submitting his written letter of
      resignation to the two Boards of Directors for their acceptance. Upon their
      acceptance of the letter of resignation, Morales shall be entitled to no further
      compensation from the Bank or Bancorp whatsoever after the effective date of
      the
      end of his employment with the Bank and Bancorp except for any deferred
      compensation benefits due.

    

    b. At
      any
      time during the term of this Employment Agreement, the Board of Directors of
      the
      Bank or Bancorp may terminate the employment of Morales with or without
      cause.

    

    In
      the
      event the termination of Morales is elected by the Board of Directors without
      cause during the term of this Employment Agreement, then Morales shall be
      entitled to "severance pay" equal to two years of his then current salary and
      twice the bonus earned for the immediately preceding twelve (12) calendar months
      before the termination.

    

    In
      the
      event the Board terminates the employment of Morales "for cause," then Morales
      shall be entitled to no payment under this Employment Agreement beyond the
      date
      of his termination. For purposes of this Employment Agreement, “for cause” shall
      mean termination because of personal dishonesty or incompetence which has or
      could adversely affect the Bank or the Bancorp; willful misconduct; breach
      of
      fiduciary duty involving personal profit; intentional failure to perform stated
      duties; willful violation of any law, rule, order or regulation (other than
      traffic violations or other misdemeanor offenses); termination of this
      Employment Agreement by any government regulatory agency as specified in
      Paragraph 16 below or a material breach of any provision of this Agreement.
      

    

    c. In
      the
      event that Morales shall suffer a permanent mental or physical disability as
      determined by the medical opinion of a physician duly licensed to practice
      medicine in the State of California, then each Board may terminate the
      Employment Agreement and Morales shall be entitled to the compensation provided
      for under Paragraph 15 b. above as if he were terminated without cause with
      the
      exception that the Bank and Bancorp shall be entitled to an offset for any
      disability benefits which are to be paid to Morales as a result of any
      disability insurance which is carried by the Bank and Bancorp for Morales.
      The
      disability insurance proceeds shall be applied against the severance pay owed
      to
      Morales under these circumstances.

    

    16. Action
      by Government Regulatory Agency.
      In the
      event that the employment of Morales is ordered to be terminated by any
      government regulatory agency, or in the event the Bank or Bancorp is closed
      or
      taken over by any government regulatory agency, or in the event the Bank and
      Bancorp have been taken over by a federal bankruptcy court, the government
      regulatory agency or the bankruptcy court may immediately terminate this
      Employment Agreement and the Bank and Bancorp shall have no further obligation
      to pay any severance pay or any other sums to Morales under this contract beyond
      the date of the actual termination of his employment.

    

    17. Ownership
      of Business Records.
      All
      records of the accounts of customers and any other records and books relating
      in
      any manner whatsoever to the customers or the business of the Bank and Bancorp,
      whether prepared by Morales or otherwise, shall be the exclusive property of
      the
      Bank and Bancorp. All such books and records shall be immediately delivered
      to
      the Bank by Morales on any termination of this Employment Agreement. Morales
      shall not be entitled to keep or preserve records or copies of records of the
      Bank and Bancorp made by him for any reason during the performance of his
      duties. All of Morales' personal effects and papers shall remain his personal
      property.

    

    18.
       Reimbursement
      of Disallowed Compensation and Expenses.
      In the
      event any compensation paid to Morales or expenses paid for Morales, or any
      reimbursement of expenses paid to Morales, shall upon audit or other examination
      of the income tax returns of the Bank and Bancorp be determined not to be an
      allowed deduction from the gross income of the Bank or Bancorp, and such
      determination shall be accepted by the Bank or Bancorp, or such determination
      shall be rendered final by the appropriate state or federal taxing authority,
      or
      a judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, and no timely appeal taken
      therefrom, then in such event, Morales will repay to the Bank or Bancorp the
      amount of such disallowed compensation or expenses, or both. Such repayment
      may
      not be waived by the Bank and Bancorp.

    

    19.
       Bank
      and Bancorp's Authority.
      Morales
      shall observe and comply with the rules and regulations of the Bank and Bancorp
      as adopted by the Bank and Bancorp, either orally or in writing, respecting
      performance of his duties, and shall carry out and shall perform orders,
      directions, and policies announced to Morales by the Bank and Bancorp, from
      time
      to time, either orally or in writing.

    

    20.
       Indemnity.
      The
      Bank and the Bancorp shall indemnify Morales for all losses sustained by Morales
      in direct consequence of the discharge of his duties on the Bank and Bancorp's
      behalf.

    

    21. Waiver.
      The
      failure of any party to insist on strict compliance with any of the terms,
      covenants, or conditions of this Employment Agreement by the other parties
      shall
      not be deemed a waiver of that term, covenant, or condition, nor shall any
      waiver or relinquishment of any right or power at any one time or times be
      deemed a waiver or relinquishment of that right or power for all or any other
      times.

    

    22. Partial
      Invalidity.
      If any
      provision of this Employment Agreement is held by a court of competent
      jurisdiction or by arbitration to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the
      remaining provisions shall nevertheless continue in full force without being
      impaired or invalidated in any way.

    

    23. Non-Assignability.
      It is
      hereby agreed that Morales’ rights and obligations under this Employment
      Agreement are personal and not assignable.

    

    24. Entire
      Agreement.
      This
      Employment Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding of the
      parties to it. No amendment or variation of the terms of this employment
      Agreement shall be valid unless made in writing and executed by Morales and
      duly
      authorized representatives of the Bank and Bancorp.

    

    25. Binding
      Effect.
      This
      Employment Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the heirs,
      personal representatives, successors, beneficiaries, and assigns of the parties,
      subject, however to the restrictions on assignment contained in the Employment
      Agreement.

    

    26. Governing
      Law.
      The
      Employment Agreement is drawn to be effective in the State of California and
      shall be construed in accordance with California law.

    

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    IN
      WITNESS WHEREOF,
      the
      parties have executed this Employment Agreement.
