    REVOLVING CREDIT NOTE    
  

$12,500,000

Chicago,
Illinois

February 12, 2002 

        FOR
VALUE RECEIVED, on or before the Maturity Date (as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement (as hereinafter defined)), FIRST COMMUNITY
BANCORP, a California corporation (the "Borrower"), promises to pay to the order of THE NORTHERN TRUST
COMPANY, an Illinois banking corporation (hereafter, together with any subsequent holder hereof, called the "Lender"), at its
main banking office at 50 South LaSalle Street, Chicago, Illinois 60675, or at such other place as the Lender may direct, the aggregate unpaid principal balance of each advance (a
"Loan" and collectively the "Loans") made by the Lender to the Borrower under this Note. The total
principal amount of Loans outstanding at any one time under this Note will not exceed TWELVE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS ($12,500,000). 

        The
Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrower at any time and from time to time at the Lender's sole option to attach a schedule (grid) to this Note and to endorse thereon notations
with respect to each Loan specifying the date and principal amount thereof, and the date and amount of each payment of principal and interest made by the Borrower with respect to each such Loan. The
Lender's endorsements as well as its records relating to Loans is rebuttably presumptive evidence of the outstanding principal and interest on the Loans, and, in the event of inconsistency, will
prevail over any records of the Borrower and any written confirmations of Loans given by the Borrower. 

        The
Borrower agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount from time to time outstanding under this Note on the dates and at the rate or rates as set forth in the Credit
Agreement. 

        Payments
of both principal and interest are to be made in immediately available funds in lawful money of the United States of America. 

        This
Note evidences indebtedness incurred under a Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of June 26, 2000 (as amended, restated, renewed or replaced, the
"Credit Agreement") between the Borrower and the Lender, to which Credit Agreement reference is hereby made for a statement of its terms and provisions,
including without limitation those under which this Note may be paid prior to its due date or have its due date accelerated. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the same meaning herein
as in the Credit Agreement. 

        This
Note and any document or instrument executed in connection with this Note are governed by and construed in accordance with the internal law of the State of Illinois, and are deemed
to have been executed in the State of Illinois. This Note binds the Borrower, its successors and assigns, and inures to the benefit of the Lender, its successors and assigns, except that the Borrower
may not transfer or assign any of its rights or interest under this Note without the prior written consent of the Lender. 

        The
Borrower agrees to pay upon demand all expenses (including without limitation attorneys' fees, legal costs and expenses, and time charges of attorneys who may be employees of the
Lender, in each case whether in or out of court, in original or appellate proceedings or in bankruptcy) incurred or paid by the Lender or any holder hereof in connection with the enforcement or
preservation of its rights hereunder or under any document or instrument executed in connection herewith. The Borrower expressly and irrevocably waives presentment, protest, demand and notice of any
kind in connection herewith. 

        This
Note is secured by the property described in the Pledge Agreement (as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement), to which reference is made for a description of the collateral
provided thereby and the rights of the Lender and the Borrower in respect of such collateral. 

        This
Note is a restatement of the indebtedness evidenced by, and is a replacement of, that certain Revolving Credit Note of the Borrower dated January 12, 2001 in the face
principal amount of 

 

$10,000,000 payable to the order of the Lender, and nothing contained herein or in the Third Amendment and Waiver dated as of February 12, 2002 to the Credit Agreement referred to above shall
be construed to deem paid or forgiven the unpaid principal amount of, or unpaid accrued interest on, said Revolving Credit Note outstanding at the time of its replacement by this Note, or to release
or otherwise adversely affect any lien, mortgage or security interest securing such indebtedness or any rights of the Lender against any guarantor, surety or other party primarily or secondarily
liable for such indebtedness.

    FORM OF OPINION OF COUNSEL
  TO THE BORROWER    
  

The
Northern Trust Company

50 South LaSalle Street

Chicago, Illinois 60675

Attention: Correspondent Services Division

Ladies
and Gentlemen: 

        We
have acted as counsel for First Community Bancorp (the "Borrower") in connection with the authorization, execution and delivery of the
Third Amendment and Waiver dated as of February 12, 2002 (the "Amendment") to the Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of June 26, 2000
(the "Agreement") and Second Amendment to Pledge Agreement entered into between the Borrower and The Northern Trust Company (the
"Lender"). Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in the Amendment. 

        We
have reviewed the corporate proceedings of the Borrower in connection with the authorization, execution, and delivery of the Amendment. We have examined originals (or copies certified
to our satisfaction) of such records of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and such other instruments and certificates of public officials, officers and representatives of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries, and such other persons, as we have deemed appropriate as a basis for the opinions hereinafter expressed. We have relied on the accuracy of the facts set forth in such records,
instruments and certificates. In particular, in respect of the opinion expressed in paragraph (1) below concerning qualification to transact business, we have relied on officers of the Borrower
as to those matters of fact, including the jurisdictions in which the Borrower and its Subsidiaries conduct business activities or own or lease property, that we deemed relevant to such opinion. 

        On
the basis of the foregoing and of such investigations of law as we have deemed appropriate, it is our opinion as follows: 

        1.
The Borrower is a corporation duly formed and validly existing under the laws of the State of California, is in good standing therein, and is duly qualified or licensed to transact
business in all places where failure to do so might have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, prospects or business of the Borrower. The Borrower has power to execute and deliver the
Amendment and to incur and perform its obligations thereunder and under the Agreement and the Pledge Agreement, as amended by the Amendment and the Replacement Note. The Borrower is a bank holding
company duly registered with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. Each "Subsidiary
Bank" is either a national banking association duly formed and is validly existing under the laws of the United States or a state banking corporation duly formed and is validly
existing under the laws of the state of its incorporation, and in each case is in good standing therein and is duly qualified or licensed to transact business in all places where failure to do so
might have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, prospects or business of such Subsidiary Bank. Each Subsidiary of the Borrower which is not a Subsidiary Bank is a corporation which
has been duly formed and is validly existing under the laws of its state of incorporation, is in good standing therein and is duly qualified or licensed to transact business in all places where
failure to do so might have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, prospects or business of such Subsidiary. 

        2.
The execution and delivery by the Borrower of the Amendment and the Replacement Note and the performance by the Borrower of its obligations under the Amendment, the Agreement and
Pledge Agreement, as amended by the Amendment and the Replacement the Note have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Borrower and, if required, its shareholders, and will
not 

11

 

violate any provision of law or regulation, writ, order or judgment or of the Borrower's articles of incorporation or bylaws, as applicable, or result in the breach of or constitute a default or
require a consent under any indenture or other agreement or instrument known to us after due inquiry to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary is a party or by which the Borrower or its property, or any
Subsidiary or its property, may be bound or affected. 

        3.
The Amendment and Replacement Note have been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and the Amendment, the Agreement and Pledge Agreement, as amended by the Amendment and the
Replacement Note constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower enforceable in accordance with their terms (subject to limitations as to enforceability which might result from
bankruptcy, insolvency, or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, and from the discretionary nature of equitable remedies). 

        4.
We have no knowledge, after due inquiry of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, of any suits or proceedings pending, or to the knowledge of the Borrower or any Subsidiary threatened
against or affecting the Borrower or any Subsidiary which, if adversely determined, would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, prospects or business of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. 

        5.
All filings or registrations with, and any licenses, consents, authorizations and approvals of, any governmental agency, authority or court necessary in connection with the execution,
delivery and performance of the Amendment, the Agreement and Pledge Agreement, as amended by the Amendment and the Replacement Note have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect. 

        6.
The Borrower is in material compliance with all rules and regulations of the Bank Holding Company Act, as amended, and with all existing regulations of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System relating to bank holding companies. 

        7.
The Borrower is not an "investment company" or a company "controlled" by an "investment company," within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 

        8.
The Borrower is not under investigation by, or operating under any restrictions (applicable specifically to the Borrower) imposed by, any regulatory authority. 

        9.
The Pledge Agreement, as amended by the Amendment, creates a valid security interest in the Borrower's right, title and interest in the
"Collateral" referred to therein which secures the "Liabilities" referred to therein. Upon delivery to
the Lender of certificates evidencing any "Pledged Shares" referred to in the Pledge Agreement, such security interest in such Pledged Shares shall
constitute a duly perfected first priority lien on such Pledged Shares. 

Very
truly yours,

EXHIBIT D FORM OF OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE BORROWER<Page>

                                                                   Exhibit 10.2

                                AGREEMENT

     THIS AGREEMENT ("Agreement") made this 26th day of February, 1998
between FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF OTTAWA, a national banking association
("Bank") and DONALD HARRIS, an Illinois resident ("Harris").

                           W I T N E S S E T H:

     WHEREAS, Harris is Executive Vice President of Bank, and

     WHEREAS, Harris has performed good and valuable services for Bank, and

     WHEREAS, in consideration of such service, Bank desires to provide
security to Harris in the event Bank undergoes a change of control,

     NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which
is here acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

     1.  CHANGE OF CONTROL.  For purposes of this Agreement, "Change of
Control" shall mean a transaction in which a party, or parties acting in
concert, acquires the legal or beneficial ownership of not less than fifty
percent (50%) of the outstanding voting shares of Bank, or of any company
which owns at least fifty percent (50%) of Bank.

<Page>

     2.  GOOD REASON.  If, within two years following a Change of Control,
Bank shall, without prior written consent of Harris, reduce or attempt to
reduce the rights, responsibilities or perquisites of Harris generally,
including but not limited to:

          a.  removal of Harris from his current position of Executive Vice
              President to some lesser position, or

          b.  cause Harris to relocate his home or business location further
              than fifty miles from Ottawa, Illinois, or

          c.  such other action which can reasonably be interpreted to have
              the effect of materially reducing Harris' responsibilities or
              authority,

then Harris may tender his written resignation and such resignation shall be
deemed to be for Good Reason.

     3.  TERMINATION PAY.  If Harris resigns for Good Reason, he shall be
entitled to his then base annual salary and health and life insurance benefits
for a period from the date of such resignation until the end of the two year
period following the Change of Control, payable periodically in accordance
with Bank's regular compensation schedule; provided, however, that said
