a change "in the ownership or effective control" or "in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets"
of The Bank, within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code. An initial public offering by The Bank will
not, however, be deemed to be a Change in Control under this Agreement.

 

(ii)Termination by The Bank. In the event
The Bank or its successors in interest terminates this Agreement within 24 months following a Change in Control for reasons other
than for cause pursuant to paragraph 5(d), or as the result of the Executive's death or disability pursuant to paragraph 5(e),
The Bank will pay the Executive 24 times the base compensation received by the Executive during the most recent calendar month
ending on or prior to the effective date of termination, plus any accrued but unused vacation days paid based on the Executive's
salary at the date of termination, less statutory payroll deductions. Payment under this paragraph shall be made in accordance
with The Bank's ordinary payroll policies and procedures in equal monthly payments beginning on the 15th day of the calendar month
immediately following the termination date and ending on the date which is the 15th day of the third calendar month of the calendar
year immediately following the termination date.

 

    	-4-

    	 

    

 

(iii)Change in Assignment Related to Change
in Control. A termination by the Executive will be deemed to have been for "good reason" and the provisions of paragraph 5(f)(ii)
shall apply if: (A) within 24 months following a Change in Control, and without the Executive's express written consent, the
Executive's assignment with The Bank is changed in a way that results in (I) a material diminution in the Executive's base
compensation, (II) a material diminution of the Executive's authority, duties, or responsibilities, (III) a material
diminution in the authority, duties, or responsibilities of the supervisor to whom the Executive reports, including a requirement
that the Executive report to a corporate officer or employee instead of reporting directly to The Bank's Board of Directors, (IV) a
material diminution in the budget over which the Executive retains authority, (V) a material change in the geographic location
at which the Executive must perform the services, or (VI) any other action or inaction that constitutes a material breach
by The Bank of this Agreement; (B) the Executive provides notice to The Bank of her objection to the change within 90 days
of such change; (C) The Bank fails to remedy the change within 30 days of the notice provided pursuant to subparagraph (B)
of this paragraph 5(f)(iii); and (D) the Executive voluntarily terminates her employment with The Bank within 30 days
of the expiration of the period described in subparagraph (C) of this paragraph 5(f)(iii).

 

(iv)Limitations on Payments Related to
Change in Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the payment described in paragraph 5(f)(ii) shall be automatically reduced
to an amount that is less than the amount that would cause it to be a "parachute payment" within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2)(A)
of the Internal Revenue Code.

 

6.Compliance with IRC Section 409A.
To the extent required by IRC Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, and regulations thereunder, payment of severance
benefits to Executive under any provision of paragraph 5 of this Agreement will not be paid, or commenced, until the expiration
of six months following the date of termination of Executive's employment with Corporation. If monthly payments are deferred pursuant
to this paragraph, all such deferred amounts will be paid in a lump sum on the first business day following the expiration of the
six-month period.

 

7.Confidentiality. The Executive
will not, after signing this Agreement, including during and after its Term, disclose to any other person or entity any confidential
information concerning The Bank or its business operations or customers, or use for her own purposes or permit or assist in the
use of such confidential information by third parties unless The Bank consents to the use or disclosures of their respective information,
or disclosure is required by law or court order. The provisions of this paragraph survive the termination of the Executive's employment
by The Bank.

 

    	-5-

    	 

    

 

8.Noncompetition. During
the Term and for 24 months after the Executive's employment with The Bank ends, the Executive will not become involved with a Competing
Business or serve, directly or indirectly, a Competing Business in any matter. "Competing Business" means any company
that competes with or will compete with The Bank in Grays Harbor, Pacific, Wahkiakum, Whatcom, and Skagit Counties, or any other
Washington or Oregon county in which The Bank maintains a banking office(s) at the time of the termination of this Agreement. "Competing
Business" includes, without limitation, any existing or newly formed financial institution or trust company.

 

9.Enforcement. The Bank
and the Executive agree that, in light of all of the facts and circumstances of the relationship between The Bank and the Executive,
the agreements referred to in paragraphs 5(a), 7, and 8 are fair and reasonably necessary for the protection of The Bank's
confidential information, goodwill and other protectible interests. The parties acknowledge and agree that the time and expense
involved in proving in any forum the actual damage or loss suffered by The Bank if there is a breach of paragraphs 5(a), 7,
or 8 make this case appropriate for liquidated damages. Accordingly, The Bank and the Executive agree that the following schedule
of liquidated damages is reasonable and fair, and shall be the amount of damages which the Executive shall pay to The Bank for
each separate breach of paragraphs 5(a), 7, or 8 by the Executive:

 

(a)for a breach of paragraph 5(a),
up to the sum of $25,000 as described in paragraph 5(c);

 

(b)for a breach of paragraph 7,
the sum of $100,000;

 

(c)for a breach of paragraph 8,
the sum of $250,000.

 

For purposes of paragraph 8, a "separate
breach" shall be deemed to have occurred with each Competing Business with which the Executive becomes involved or serves
in violation of paragraph 8.

 

Neither the breach of paragraphs 5(a),
7, or 8, nor the payment of liquidated damages by the Executive, shall affect the continuing validity or enforceability of this
Agreement, or The Bank's right to seek and obtain injunctive relief. If a court of competent jurisdiction should decline to enforce
any of these covenants and agreements, the Executive and The Bank hereby stipulate that the Court shall reform these provisions
to restrict the Executive's use of confidential information and the Executive's ability to compete with The Bank to the maximum
extent, in time, scope of activities, and geography, as the court finds enforceable.

 

10.Adequate Consideration.
The Executive specifically acknowledges the receipt of adequate consideration for the covenants contained in paragraphs 5(a),
7, and 8, and that The Bank is entitled to require her to comply with these paragraphs. These paragraphs will survive termination
of this agreement. The Executive represents that if her employment is terminated, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, the Executive
has experience and capabilities sufficient to enable the Executive to obtain employment in areas which do not violate this Agreement
and that The Bank's enforcement of a remedy by way of injunction will not prevent the Executive from earning a livelihood.

 

    	-6-

    	 

    

 

11.Miscellaneous Provisions.
This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between the parties concerning its subject matter. This Agreement will bind
and inure to the benefit of The Bank's and the Executive's heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns. This Agreement
may be modified only through a written instrument signed by both parties. This Agreement will be governed and construed in accordance
with Washington law, except that certain matters may be governed by federal law. Venue for enforcement of any terms of this Agreement
shall be in Grays Harbor County, Washington Superior Court.
