                     CHANGE OF CONTROL EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

        AGREEMENT by and between West Coast Bancorp, an Oregon corporation (the
"Company") and BRIAN L. COOPER (the "Executive"), dated as of July 25, 2000.

        The Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"), has determined that
it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to assure that
the Company will have the continued dedication of the Executive, notwithstanding
the possibility, threat or occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined below)
of the Company. The Board believes it is imperative to diminish the inevitable
distraction of the Executive by virtue of the personal uncertainties and risks
created by a pending or threatened Change of Control and to encourage the
Executive's full attention and dedication to the Company currently and in the
event of any threatened or pending Change of Control, and to provide the
Executive with compensation and benefits arrangements upon a Change of Control
which ensure that the compensation and benefits expectations of the Executive
will be satisfied and which are competitive with those of other corporations.
Therefore, in order to accomplish these objectives, the Board has caused the
Company to enter into this Agreement.

        NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

        1.      Certain Definitions.

                (a) The "Effective Date" shall mean the first date during the
Change of Control Period (as defined in Section 1 (b)) on which a Change of
Control (as defined in Section 2) occurs. Anything in this Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding, if a Change of Control occurs and if the Executive's
employment with the Company is terminated prior to the date on which the Change
of Control occurs, and if it is reasonably demonstrated by the Executive that
such termination of employment (i) was at the request of a third party who has
taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a Change of Control or (ii)
otherwise arose in connection with or anticipation of a Change of Control, then
for all purposes of this Agreement the "Effective Date" shall mean the date
immediately prior to the date of such termination of employment.

                (b) The "Change of Control Period" shall mean the period
commencing on the date hereof and ending on the second anniversary of the date
hereof; provided, however, that commencing on the date one year after the date
hereof, and on each annual anniversary of such date (such date and each annual
anniversary thereof shall be hereinafter referred to as the "Renewal Date"),
unless previously terminated, the Change of Control Period shall be
automatically extended so as to terminate two years from such Renewal Date,
unless at least 60 days prior to the Renewal Date the Company shall give notice
to the Executive that the Change of Control Period shall not be so extended.

        2.      Change of Control. For the purpose of this Agreement, a "Change
of Control" shall mean:

                (a) The acquisition by any individual, entity or group (within
the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "Exchange

                                       1
<PAGE>   2
Act")) (a "Person") of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3
promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 50% or more of either (i) the then
outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (the "Outstanding Company
Common Stock") or (ii) the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting
securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of
directors (the "Outstanding Company Voting Securities"); provided, however, that
for purposes of this subsection (a), the following acquisitions shall not
constitute a Change of Control: (i) any acquisition directly from the Company,
(ii) any acquisition by the Company, (iii) any acquisition by any employee
benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any
corporation controlled by the Company or (iv) any acquisition by any corporation
pursuant to a transaction which complies with clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of
subsection (c) of this Section 2; or

                (b)     Individuals who, as of the date hereof, constitute the
Board (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at least a
majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual becoming a
director subsequent to the date hereof whose election, or nomination for
election by the Company's shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least a
majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be
considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but
excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of
office occurs as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with
respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened
solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the
Board; or

                (c)     Consummation of a reorganization, merger or
consolidation or sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company (a "Business Combination"), in each case, unless,
following such Business Combination, (i) all or substantially all of the
individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the
Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities
immediately prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or
indirectly, more than 50% of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of
common stock and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting
securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the case
may be, of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination (including,
without limitation, a corporation which as a result of such transaction owns the
Company or all or substantially all of the Company's assets either directly or
through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their
ownership, immediately prior to such Business Combination of the Outstanding
Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may
be, (ii) no Person (excluding any corporation resulting from such Business
Combination or any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or
such corporation resulting from such Business Combination) beneficially owns,
directly or indirectly, 50% or more of, respectively, the then outstanding
shares of common stock of the corporation resulting from such Business
Combination or the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting
securities of such corporation except to the extent that such ownership existed
prior to the Business Combination and (iii) at least a majority of the members
of the board of directors of the corporation resulting from such Business
Combination were members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the execution of
the initial agreement, or of the action of the Board, providing for such
Business Combination; or

                                       2
<PAGE>   3
                (d)     Approval by the shareholders of the Company of a
complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

        3.      Employment Period. The Company hereby agrees to continue the
Executive in its employ, and the Executive hereby agrees to remain in the employ
of the Company subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, for the
period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the second anniversary of
such date (the "Employment Period").

        4.      Terms of Employment.

                (a)     Position and Duties.

                        (i)     During the Employment Period, (A) the
        Executive's position (including status, offices, titles and reporting
        requirements), authority, duties and responsibilities shall be at least
        commensurate in all material respects with the most significant of those
        held, exercised and assigned at any time during the 120-day period
        immediately preceding the Effective Date and (B) the Executive's
        services shall be performed at the location where the Executive was
        employed immediately preceding the Effective Date or any office or
        location less than 35 miles from such location.

                        (ii)    During the Employment Period, and excluding any
        periods of vacation and sick leave to which the Executive is entitled,
        the Executive agrees to devote reasonable attention and time during
        normal business hours to the business and affairs of the Company and, to
        the extent necessary to discharge the responsibilities assigned to the
        Executive hereunder, to use the Executive's reasonable best efforts to
        perform faithfully and efficiently such responsibilities. During the
        Employment Period it shall not be a violation of this Agreement for the
        Executive to (A) serve on corporate, civic or charitable boards or
        committees, (B) deliver lectures, fulfill speaking engagements or teach
        at educational institutions and (C) manage personal investments, so long
        as such activities do not significantly interfere with the performance
        of the Executive's responsibilities as an employee of the Company in
        accordance with this Agreement. It is expressly understood and agreed
        that to the extent that any such activities have been conducted by the
        Executive prior to the Effective Date, the continued conduct of such
        activities (or the conduct of activities similar in nature and scope
        thereto) subsequent to the Effective Date shall not thereafter be deemed
        to interfere with the performance of the Executive's responsibilities to
        the Company.

                (b)     Compensation.

                        (i)     Base Salary. During the Employment Period, the
        Executive shall receive an annual base salary ("Annual Base Salary"),
        which shall be paid at a monthly rate, at least equal to twelve times
        the highest monthly base salary paid or payable, including any base
        salary which has been earned but deferred, to the Executive by the
        Company and its affiliated companies in respect of the twelve-month
        period immediately preceding the month in which the Effective Date
        occurs. During the Employment Period, the Annual Base Salary shall be
        reviewed no more than 12 months after the last salary increase awarded
        to the Executive prior to the Effective Date and thereafter at least

                                       3
<PAGE>   4
        annually. Any increase in Annual Base Salary shall not serve to limit or
        reduce any other obligation to the Executive under this Agreement.
        Annual Base Salary shall not be reduced after any such increase and the
        term Annual Base Salary as utilized in this Agreement shall refer to
        Annual Base Salary as so increased. As used in this Agreement, the term
        "affiliated companies" shall include any company controlled by,
        controlling or under common control with the Company.

                        (ii)    Annual Bonus. In addition to Annual Base Salary,
        the Executive shall be awarded, for each fiscal year ending during the
        Employment Period, an annual bonus (the "Annual Bonus") in cash at least
        equal to the Executive's highest bonus under the Company's incentive
        plans, or any comparable bonus under any predecessor or successor plan,
        for the last three full fiscal years prior to the Effective Date
        (annualized in the event that the Executive was not employed by the
        Company for the whole of such fiscal year), provided that if no such
        bonus has been paid to the Executive, such amount shall not be less than
        $80,000 (the "Recent Annual Bonus"). Each such Annual Bonus shall be
        paid no later than the end of the third month of the fiscal year next
        following the fiscal year for which the Annual Bonus is awarded, unless
        the Executive shall elect to defer the receipt of such Annual Bonus.

                        (iii)   Incentive, Savings and Retirement Plans. During
        the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to participate in
        all incentive, savings and retirement plans, practices, policies and
        programs applicable generally to other peer executives of the Company
        and its affiliated companies, but in no event shall such plans,
        practices, policies and programs provide the Executive with incentive
        opportunities (measured with respect to both regular and special
        incentive opportunities, to the extent, if any, that such distinction is
        applicable), savings opportunities and retirement benefit opportunities,
        in each case, less favorable, in the aggregate, than the most favorable
        of those provided by the Company and its affiliated companies for the
        Executive under such plans, practices, policies and programs as in
        effect at any time during the 120-day period immediately preceding the
        Effective Date or if more favorable to the Executive, those provided
        generally at any time after the Effective Date to other peer executives
        of the Company and its affiliated companies.

                        (iv)    Welfare Benefit Plans. During the Employment
        Period, the Executive and/or the Executive's family, as the case my be,
        shall be eligible for participation in and shall receive all benefits
        under welfare benefit plans, practices, policies and programs provided
        by the Company and its affiliated companies (including, without
        limitation, medical, prescription, dental, disability, employee life,
        group life, accidental death and travel accident insurance plans and
        programs) to the extent applicable generally to other peer executives of
        the Company and its affiliated companies, but in no event shall such
        plans, practices, policies and programs provide the Executive with
        benefits which are less favorable, in the aggregate, than the most
        favorable of such plans, practices, policies and programs in effect for
        the Executive at any time during the 120-day period immediately
        preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive,
        those provided generally at any time after the Effective Date to other
        peer executives of the Company and its affiliated companies.

                        (v)     Expenses. During the Employment Period, the
        Executive shall be entitled to receive prompt reimbursement for all
        reasonable expenses incurred by the Executive in accordance with the
        most favorable policies, practices and procedures of the Company and its
        affiliated companies in effect for the Executive at any time during the
        120-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more
        favorable to the Executive, as in effect generally at any time
        thereafter with respect to other peer executives of the Company and its
        affiliated companies.

                        (vi)    Fringe Benefits. During the Employment Period,
        the Executive shall be entitled to fringe benefits, including, without
        limitation, tax and financial planning services, payment of club dues,
        and, if applicable, use of an automobile and payment of related
        expenses, in accordance with the most favorable plans, practices,
        programs and policies of the Company and its affiliated companies in
        effect for the Executive at any time during the 120-day period
        immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the
        Executive, as in effect generally at any time thereafter with respect to
        other peer executives of the Company and its affiliated companies.

                        (vii)   Office and Support Staff. During the Employment
        Period, the Executive shall be entitled to an office or offices of a
        size and with furnishings and other appointments, and to exclusive
        personal secretarial and other assistance, at least equal to the most
        favorable of the foregoing provided to the Executive by the Company and
        its affiliated companies at any time during the 120-day period
        immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the
        Executive, as provided generally at any time thereafter with respect to
        other peer executives of the Company and its affiliated companies.

                        (viii)  Vacation. During the Employment Period, the
        Executive shall be entitled to paid vacation in accordance with the most
        favorable plans, policies, programs and practices of the Company and its
        affiliated companies as in effect for the Executive at any time during
        the 120-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more
        favorable to the Executive, as in effect generally at any time
        thereafter with respect to other peer executives of the Company and its
        affiliated companies.

        5.      Termination of Employment.

                (a)     Death or Disability. The Executive's employment shall
terminate automatically upon the Executive's death during the Employment Period.
If the Company determines in good faith that the Disability of the Executive has
occurred during the Employment Period (pursuant to the definition of Disability
set forth below), it may give to the Executive written notice in accordance with
Section 12(b) of this Agreement of its intention to terminate the Executive's
employment. In such event, the Executive's employment with the Company shall
terminate effective on the 30th day after receipt of such notice by the
Executive (the "Disability Effective Date"), provided that, within the 30 days
after such receipt, the Executive shall not have returned to full-time
performance of the Executive's duties. For purposes of this Agreement,
"Disability" shall mean the absence of the Executive from the Executive's duties
with the Company on a full-time basis for 180 consecutive business days as a
result of incapacity due to mental or physical illness which is determined to be
total and

                                       5
<PAGE>   6
permanent by a physician selected by the Company or its insurers and acceptable
to the Executive or the Executive's legal representative.

                (b)     Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive's
employment during the EmploymentPeriod for Cause. For purposes of this
Agreement, "Cause" shall mean:

                        (i)     the willful and continued failure of the
        Executive to perform substantially the Executive's duties with the
        Company or one of its affiliates (other than any such failure resulting
        from incapacity due to physical or mental illness), after a written
        demand for substantial performance is delivered to the Executive by the
        Board which specifically identifies the manner in which the Board
        believes that the Executive has not substantially performed the
        Executive's duties, or

                        (ii)    the willful engaging by the Executive in illegal
        conduct or gross misconduct which is materially and demonstrably
        injurious to the Company.

For purposes of this provision, no act or failure to act, on the part of the
Executive, shall be considered "willful" unless it is done, or omitted to be
done, by the Executive in bad faith or without reasonable belief that the
Executive's action or omission was in the best interests of the Company. Any
act, or failure to act, based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly
adopted by the Board or upon the advice of counsel for the Company shall be
conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in
good faith and in the best interests of the Company. The cessation of employment
of the Executive shall not be deemed to be for Cause unless and until there
shall have been delivered to the Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted
by the affirmative vote of not less than three-quarters of the entire membership
of the Board at a meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose (after
reasonable notice is provided to the Executive and the Executive is given an
opportunity, together with counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that,
in the good faith opinion of the Board, the Executive is guilty of the conduct
described in subparagraph (i) or (ii) above, and specifying the particulars
thereof in detail.

                (c)     Good Reason. The Executive's employment may be
terminated by the Executive for Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement,
"Good Reason" shall mean:

                        (i) the assignment to the Executive of any duties
        inconsistent in any respect with the Executive's position (including
        status, offices, titles and reporting requirements), authority, duties
        or responsibilities as contemplated by Section 4(a) of this Agreement,
        or any other action by the Company which results in a diminution in such
        position, authority, duties or responsibilities, excluding for this
        purpose an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action not taken in
        bad faith and which is remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of
        notice thereof given by the Executive;

                        (ii)    any failure by the Company to comply with any
        of the provisions of Section 4(b) of this Agreement, other than an
        isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent failure not occurring in bad
        faith and which is remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of
        notice thereof given by the Executive;

                                       6
<PAGE>   7
                        (iii)   the Company's requiring the Executive to be
        based at any office or location other than as provided in Section
        4(a)(i)(B) hereof or the Company's requiring the Executive to travel on
        Company business to a substantially greater extent than required
        immediately prior to the Effective Date;

                        (iv)    any purported termination by the Company of the
        Executive's employment otherwise than as expressly permitted by this
        Agreement; or

                        (v)     any failure by the Company to comply with and
        satisfy Section 11(c) of this Agreement.

For purposes of this Section 5(c), any good faith determination of "Good Reason"
made by the Executive shall be conclusive. Anything in this Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding, a termination by the Executive for any reason during
the 30-day period immediately following the first anniversary of the Effective
Date shall be deemed to be a termination for Good Reason for all purposes of
this Agreement.

                (d)     Notice of Termination. Any termination by the Company
for Cause, or by the Executive for Good Reason, shall be communicated by Notice
of Termination to the other party hereto given in accordance with Section 12(b)
of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination"
means a written notice which (i) indicates the specific termination provision in
this Agreement relied upon, (ii) to the extent applicable, sets forth in
reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for
termination of the Executive's employment under the provision so indicated and
(iii) if the Date of Termination (as defined below) is other than the date of
receipt of such notice, specifies the termination date (which date shall be not
more than thirty days after the giving of such notice). The failure by the
Executive or the Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or
circumstance which contributes to a showing of Good Reason or Cause shall not
waive any right of the Executive or the Company, respectively, hereunder or
preclude the Executive or the Company, respectively, from asserting such fact or
circumstance in enforcing the Executive's or the Company's rights hereunder.

                (e)     Date of Termination. "Date of Termination" means (i) if
the Executive's employment is terminated by the Company for Cause, or by the
Executive for Good Reason, the date of receipt of the Notice of Termination or
any later date specified therein, as the case may be, (ii) if the Executive's
employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause or Disability, the
Date of Termination shall be the date on which the Company notifies the
Executive of such termination and (iii) if the Executive's employment is
terminated by reason of death or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be
the date of death of the Executive or the Disability Effective Date, as the case
may be.

        6.      Obligations of the Company upon Termination.

                (a)     Good Reason; Other Than for Cause, Death or Disability.
If, during the Employment Period, the Company shall terminate the Executive's
employment other than for Cause or Disability or the Executive shall terminate
employment for Good Reason:

                                       7
<PAGE>   8
                        (i)     the Company shall pay to the Executive in a lump
        sum in cash within 30 days after the Date of Termination the aggregate
        of the following amounts:

                                A.      the sum of (1) the Executive's Annual
                Base Salary through the Date of Termination to the extent not
                theretofore paid, (2) the product of (x) the higher of (I) the
                Recent Annual Bonus and (II) the Annual Bonus paid or payable,
                including any bonus or portion thereof which has been earned but
                deferred (and annualized for any fiscal year consisting of less
                than twelve full months or during which the Executive was
                employed for less than twelve full months), for the most
                recently completed fiscal year during the Employment Period, if
                any (such higher amount being referred to as the "Highest Annual
                Bonus") and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number
                of days in the current fiscal year through the Date of
                Termination, and the denominator of which is 365 and (3) any
                compensation previously deferred by the Executive (together with
                any accrued interest or earnings thereon) and any accrued
                vacation pay, in each case to the extent not theretofore paid
                (the sum of the amounts described in clauses (1), (2), and (3)
                shall be hereinafter referred to as the "Accrued Obligations");
                and

                                B.      the amount equal to the product of (1)
                two and (2) the sum of (x) the Executive's Annual Base Salary
                and (y) the Highest Annual Bonus; and

                                C.      an amount equal to the excess of (a) the
                benefit which the Executive would have received under the
                Company's 401(k) plan if the Executive's employment continued
                until the second anniversary of the Date of Termination assuming
                for this purpose that all benefits are fully vested, and,
                assuming that the Executive's compensation in each of such years
                is the sum of the Annual Salary and the Recent Annual Bonus and
                the Company's contribution in each such year is equal to its
                contribution in the year prior to the year in which the Date of
                Termination occurs, over (b) the Executive's actual benefit
                (paid or payable), if any, under the Company's 401(k) plan as of
                the Date of Termination;

                        (ii)    all stock incentives granted to the Executive
        shall vest immediately;

                        (iii)   for two years after the Executive's Date of
        Termination, or such longer period as may be provided by the terms of
        the appropriate plan, program, practice or policy, the Company shall
        continue benefits to the Executive and/or the Executive's family at
        least equal to those which would have been provided to them in
        accordance with the plans, programs, practices and policies described in
        Section 4(b)(iv) of this Agreement if the Executive's employment had not
        been terminated or, if more favorable to the Executive, as in effect
        generally at any time thereafter with respect to other peer executives
        of the Company and its affiliated companies and their families,
        provided, however, that if the Executive becomes reemployed with another
        employer and is eligible

                                       8
<PAGE>   9
        to receive medical or other welfare benefits under another employer
        provided plan, the medical and other welfare benefits described herein
        shall be secondary to those provided under such other plan during such
        applicable period of eligibility. For purposes of determining
        eligibility (but not the time of commencement of benefits) of the
        Executive for retiree benefits pursuant to such plans, practices,
        programs and policies, the Executive shall be considered to have
        remained employed until two years after the Date of Termination and to
        have retired on the last day of such period;

                        (iv)    the Company shall, at its sole expense as
        incurred, provide the Executive with outplacement services the scope and
        provider of which shall be selected by the Executive in his sole
        discretion; and

                        (v)     to the extent not theretofore paid or provided,
        the Company shall timely pay or provide to the Executive any other
        amounts or benefits required to be paid or provided or which the
        Executive is eligible to receive under any plan, program, policy or
        practice or contract or agreement of the Company and its affiliated
        companies (such other amounts and benefits shall be hereinafter referred
        to as the "Other Benefits").

                (b)     Death. If the Executive's employment is terminated by
reason of the Executive's death during the Employment Period, this Agreement
shall terminate without further obligations to the Executive's legal
representatives under this Agreement, other than for payment of Accrued
Obligations and the timely payment or provision of Other Benefits. Accrued
Obligations shall be paid to the Executive's estate or beneficiary, as
applicable, in a lump sum in cash within 60 days of the Date of Termination.
With respect to the provision of Other Benefits, the term Other Benefits as
utilized in this Section 6(b) shall include, without limitation, and the
Executive's estate and/or beneficiaries shall be entitled to receive, benefits
at least equal to the most favorable benefits provided by the Company and
affiliated companies to the estates and beneficiaries of peer executives of the
Company and such affiliated companies under such plans, programs, practices and
policies relating to death benefits, if any, as in effect with respect to other
peer executives and their beneficiaries at any time during the 120-day period
immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the
Executive's estate and/or the Executive's beneficiaries, as in effect on the
date of the Executive's death with respect to other peer executives of the
Company and its affiliated companies and their beneficiaries.

                (c)     Disability. If the Executive's employment is terminated
by reason of the Executive's Disability during the Employment Period, this
Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to the Executive, other
than for payment of Accrued Obligations and the timely payment or provision of
Other Benefits. Accrued Obligations shall be paid to the Executive in a lump sum
in cash within 60 days of the Date of Termination. With respect to the provision
of Other Benefits, the term Other Benefits as utilized in this Section 6(c)
shall include, and the Executive shall be entitled after the Disability
Effective Date to receive, disability and other benefits at least equal to the
most favorable of those generally provided by the Company and its affiliated
companies to disabled executives and/or their families in accordance with such
plans, programs, practices and policies relating to disability, if any, as in
effect generally with respect to other peer executives and their families at any
time during the 120-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if
more favorable to the Executive and/or the

                                       9
<PAGE>   10
Executive's family, as in effect at any time thereafter generally with respect
to other peer executives of the Company and its affiliated companies and their
families.

                (d)     Cause; Other than for Good Reason. If the Executive's
employment shall be terminated for Cause during the Employment Period, this
Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to the Executive other
than the obligation to pay to the Executive (x) his Annual Base Salary through
the Date of Termination, (y) the amount of any compensation previously deferred
by the Executive, and (z) Other Benefits, in each case to the extent theretofore
unpaid. If the Executive voluntarily terminates employment during the Employment
Period, excluding a termination for Good Reason, this Agreement shall terminate
without further obligations to the Executive, other than for Accrued Obligations
and the timely payment or provision of Other Benefits. In such case, all Accrued
Obligations shall be paid to the Executive in a lump sum in cash within 60 days
of the Date of Termination.

        7.      Non-exclusivity of Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall
prevent or limit the Executive's continuing or future participation in any plan,
program, policy or practice provided by the Company or any of its affiliated
companies and for which the Executive may qualify, nor, subject to Section
12(f), shall anything herein limit or otherwise affect such rights as the
Executive may have under any contract or agreement with the Company or any of
its affiliated companies. Amounts which are vested benefits or which the
Executive is otherwise entitled to receive under any plan, policy, practice or
program of or any contract or agreement with the Company or any of its
affiliated companies at or subsequent to the Date of Termination shall be
payable in accordance with such plan, policy, practice or program or contract or
agreement except as explicitly modified by this Agreement.

        8.      Full Settlement. The Company's obligation to make the payments
provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations
hereunder shall not be affected by any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment,
defense or other claim, right or action which the Company may have against the
Executive or others. In no event shall the Executive be obligated to seek other
employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable
to the Executive under any of the provisions of this Agreement and such amounts
shall not be reduced whether or not the Executive obtains other employment.

        9.      Certain Additional Payments by the Company.

                (a)     Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding and except as set forth below, in the event it shall be
determined that any payment or distribution by the Company or its affiliates to
or for the benefit of the Executive (whether paid or payable or distributed or
distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, but
determined without regard to any additional payments required under this Section
9) (a "Payment") would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of
the Code or any interest or penalties are incurred by the Executive with respect
to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and
penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Excise Tax"), then
the Executive shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a "Gross-Up
Payment") in an amount such that after payment by the Executive of all taxes
(including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes),
including, without limitation, any income taxes (and any interest and penalties
imposed with respect thereto) and Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up

                                       10
<PAGE>   11
Payment, the Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the
Excise Tax imposed upon the Payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions
of this Section 9(a), if it shall be determined that the Executive is entitled
to a Gross-Up Payment, but that the Payments do not exceed 110% of the greatest
amount (the "Reduced Amount") that could be paid to the Executive such that the
receipt of Payments would not give rise to any Excise Tax, then no Gross-Up
Payment shall be made to the Executive and the Payments, in the aggregate, shall
be reduced to the Reduced Amount.

                (b)     Subject to the provisions of Section 9(c), all
determinations required to be made under this Section 9, including whether and
when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and
the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made
by a certified public accounting firm as may be designated by the Executive (the
"Accounting Firm") which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to
the Company and the Executive within 15 business days of the receipt of notice
from the Executive that there has been a Payment, or such earlier time as is
requested by the Company. In the event that the Accounting Firm is serving as
accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change
of Control, the Executive shall appoint another nationally recognized accounting
firm to make the determinations required hereunder (which accounting firm shall
then be referred to as the Accounting Firm hereunder). All fees and expenses of
the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company. Any Gross-Up Payment,
as determined pursuant to this Section 9, shall be paid by the Company to the
Executive within five days of the receipt of the Accounting Firm's
determination. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon
the Company and the Executive. As a result of the uncertainty in the application
of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the
Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments which will not
have been made by the Company should have been made ("Underpayment"), consistent
with the calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event that the
Company exhausts its remedies pursuant to Section 9(c) and the Executive
thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm
shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such
Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of the
Executive.

                (c)     The Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any
claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the
payment by the Company of the Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given
as soon as practicable but no later than ten business days after the Executive
is informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the Company of the nature
of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. The
Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the 30-day period
following the date on which it gives such notice to the Company (or such shorter
period ending on the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim
is due). If the Company notifies the Executive in writing prior to the
expiration of such period that it desires to contest such claim, the Executive
shall:

                        (i)     give the Company any information reasonably
        requested by the Company relating to such claim,

                                       11
<PAGE>   12
                        (ii)    take such action in connection with contesting
        such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time
        to time, including, without limitation, accepting legal representation
        with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by the
        Company,

                        (iii)   cooperate with the Company in good faith in
        order effectively to contest such claim, and

                        (iv)    permit the Company to participate in any
        proceedings relating to such claim;

provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and
expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection
with such contest and shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an
after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest and
penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and
payment of costs and expenses. Without limitation on the foregoing provisions of
this Section 9(c), the Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection
with such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forgo any and all
administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing
authority in respect of such claim and may, at its sole option, either direct
the Executive to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the claim
in any permissible manner, and the Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to
a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial
jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Company shall
determine; provided, however, that if the Company directs the Executive to pay
such claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall advance the amount of such
payment to the Executive, on an interest-free basis and shall indemnify and hold
the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or income tax
(including interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to
such advance or with respect to any imputed income with respect to such advance;
and further provided that any extension of the statute of limitations relating
to payment of taxes for the taxable year of the Executive with respect to which
such contested amount is claimed to be due is limited solely to such contested
amount. Furthermore, the Company's control of the contest shall be limited to
issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder and
the Executive shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any
other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing
authority.

                (d)     If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount
advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 9(c), the Executive becomes entitled
to receive any refund with respect to such claim, the Executive shall (subject
to the Company's complying with the requirements of Section 9(c)) promptly pay
to the Company the amount of such refund (together with any interest paid or
credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto). If, after the receipt by the
Executive of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 9(c), a
determination is made that the Executive shall not be entitled to any refund
with respect to such claim and the Company does not notify the Executive in
writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration
of 30 days after such determination, then such advance shall be forgiven and
shall not be required to be repaid and the amount of such advance shall offset,
to the extent thereof, the amount of Gross-Up Payment required to be paid.

        10.     Confidential Information. The Executive shall hold in a
fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the Company all secret or confidential
information, knowledge or data relating to the Company or any of its affiliated
companies, and their respective businesses, which shall have been obtained by
the Executive during the Executive's employment by the Company or any of its
affiliated companies and which shall not be or become public knowledge (other
than by acts by the Executive or representatives of the Executive in violation
of this Agreement). After termination of the Executive's employment with the
Company, the Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the
Company or as may otherwise be required by law or legal process, communicate or
divulge any such information, knowledge or data to anyone other than the Company
and those designated by it. In no event shall an asserted violation of the
provisions of this Section 10 constitute a basis for deferring or withholding
any amounts otherwise payable to the Executive under this Agreement.

        11.     Successors.

                (a)     This Agreement is personal to the Executive and without
the prior written consent of the Company shall not be assignable by the
Executive other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. This
Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive's
legal representatives.

                (b)     This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns.

                (c)     The Company will require any successor (whether direct '
or indirect, by urchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume
expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same
extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession
had taken place. As used in this Agreement, "Company" shall mean the Company as
hereinbefore defined and any successor to its business and/or assets as
aforesaid which assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement by operation of
law, or otherwise.

        12.     Miscellaneous.

                (a)     This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Oregon, without reference to principles
of conflict of laws. The captions of this Agreement are not part of the
provisions hereof and shall have no force or effect. This Agreement may not be
amended or modified otherwise than by a written agreement executed by the
parties hereto or their respective successors and legal representatives.

                (b)     All notices and other communications hereunder shall be

                     CHANGE OF CONTROL EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

        AGREEMENT by and between West Coast Bancorp, an Oregon corporation (the
"Company") and ANDERS GILTVEDT (the "Executive"), dated as of July 25, 2000.

        The Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"), has determined that
it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to assure that
the Company will have the continued dedication of the Executive, notwithstanding
the possibility, threat or occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined below)
of the Company. The Board believes it is imperative to diminish the inevitable
distraction of the Executive by virtue of the personal uncertainties and risks
created by a pending or threatened Change of Control and to encourage the
Executive's full attention and dedication to the Company currently and in the
event of any threatened or pending Change of Control, and to provide the
Executive with compensation and benefits arrangements upon a Change of Control
which ensure that the compensation and benefits expectations of the Executive
will be satisfied and which are competitive with those of other corporations.
Therefore, in order to accomplish these objectives, the Board has caused the
Company to enter into this Agreement.

        NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

        1.      Certain Definitions.

                (a)     The "Effective Date" shall mean the first date during
the Change of Control Period (as defined in Section 1 (b)) on which a Change of
Control (as defined in Section 2) occurs. Anything in this Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding, if a Change of Control occurs and if the Executive's
employment with the Company is terminated prior to the date on which the Change
of Control occurs, and if it is reasonably demonstrated by the Executive that
such termination of employment (i) was at the request of a third party who has
taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a Change of Control or (ii)
otherwise arose in connection with or anticipation of a Change of Control, then
for all purposes of this Agreement the "Effective Date" shall mean the date
immediately prior to the date of such termination of employment.

                (b)     The "Change of Control Period" shall mean the period
commencing on the date hereof and ending on the second anniversary of the date
hereof; provided, however, that commencing on the date one year after the date
hereof, and on each annual anniversary of such date (such date and each annual
anniversary thereof shall be hereinafter referred to as the "Renewal Date"),
unless previously terminated, the Change of Control Period shall be
automatically extended so as to terminate two years from such Renewal Date,
unless at least 60 days prior to the Renewal Date the Company shall give notice
to the Executive that the Change of Control Period shall not be so extended.

        2.      Change of Control. For the purpose of this Agreement, a "Change
of Control" shall mean:

                (a)     The acquisition by any individual, entity or group
(within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange

                                       1
<PAGE>   2
Act")) (a "Person") of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3
promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 50% or more of either (i) the then
outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (the "Outstanding Company
Common Stock") or (ii) the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting
securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of
directors (the "Outstanding Company Voting Securities"); provided, however, that
for purposes of this subsection (a), the following acquisitions shall not
constitute a Change of Control: (i) any acquisition directly from the Company,
(ii) any acquisition by the Company, (iii) any acquisition by any employee
benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any
corporation controlled by the Company or (iv) any acquisition by any corporation
pursuant to a transaction which complies with clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of
subsection (c) of this Section 2; or

                (b)     Individuals who, as of the date hereof, constitute the
Board (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at least a
majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual becoming a
director subsequent to the date hereof whose election, or nomination for
election by the Company's shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least a
majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be
considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but
excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of
office occurs as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with
respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened
solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the
Board; or

                (c)     Consummation of a reorganization, merger or
consolidation or sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company (a "Business Combination"), in each case, unless,
following such Business Combination, (i) all or substantially all of the
individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the
Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities
immediately prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or
indirectly, more than 50% of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of
common stock and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting
securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the case
may be, of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination (including,
without limitation, a corporation which as a result of such transaction owns the
Company or all or substantially all of the Company's assets either directly or
through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their
ownership, immediately prior to such Business Combination of the Outstanding
Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may
be, (ii) no Person (excluding any corporation resulting from such Business
Combination or any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or
such corporation resulting from such Business Combination) beneficially owns,
directly or indirectly, 50% or more of, respectively, the then outstanding
shares of common stock of the corporation resulting from such Business
Combination or the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting

                (d)     Approval by the shareholders of the Company of a
complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

        3.      Employment Period. The Company hereby agrees to continue the
Executive in its employ, and the Executive hereby agrees to remain in the employ
of the Company subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, for the
period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the second anniversary of
such date (the "Employment Period").

        4.      Terms of Employment.

                (a)     Position and Duties.

                        (i)     During the Employment Period, (A) the
        Executive's position (including status, offices, titles and reporting
        requirements), authority, duties and responsibilities shall be at least
        commensurate in all material respects with the most significant of those
        held, exercised and assigned at any time during the 120-day period
        immediately preceding the Effective Date and (B) the Executive's
        services shall be performed at the location where the Executive was
        employed immediately preceding the Effective Date or any office or
        location less than 35 miles from such location.

                        (ii)    During the Employment Period, and excluding any
        periods of vacation and sick leave to which the Executive is entitled,
        the Executive agrees to devote reasonable attention and time during
        normal business hours to the business and affairs of the Company and, to
        the extent necessary to discharge the responsibilities assigned to the
        Executive hereunder, to use the Executive's reasonable best efforts to
        perform faithfully and efficiently such responsibilities. During the
        Employment Period it shall not be a violation of this Agreement for the
        Executive to (A) serve on corporate, civic or charitable boards or
        committees, (B) deliver lectures, fulfill speaking engagements or teach
        at educational institutions and (C) manage personal investments, so long
        as such activities do not significantly interfere with the performance
        of the Executive's responsibilities as an employee of the Company in
        accordance with this Agreement. It is expressly understood and agreed
        that to the extent that any such activities have been conducted by the
        Executive prior to the Effective Date, the continued conduct of such
        activities (or the conduct of activities similar in nature and scope
        thereto) subsequent to the Effective Date shall not thereafter be deemed
        to interfere with the performance of the Executive's responsibilities to
        the Company.

                (b)     Compensation.

                        (i)     Base Salary. During the Employment Period, the
        Executive shall receive an annual base salary ("Annual Base Salary"),
        which shall be paid at a monthly rate, at least equal to twelve times
        the highest monthly base salary paid or payable, including any base
        salary which has been earned but deferred, to the Executive by the
        Company and its affiliated companies in respect of the twelve-month
        period immediately preceding the month in which the Effective Date
        occurs. During the Employment Period, the Annual Base Salary shall be
        reviewed no more than 12 months after the last salary increase awarded
        to the Executive prior to the Effective Date and thereafter at least

                                       3
<PAGE>   4
        annually. Any increase in Annual Base Salary shall not serve to limit or
        reduce any other obligation to the Executive under this Agreement.
        Annual Base Salary shall not be reduced after any such increase and the
        term Annual Base Salary as utilized in this Agreement shall refer to
        Annual Base Salary as so increased. As used in this Agreement, the term
        "affiliated companies" shall include any company controlled by,
        controlling or under common control with the Company.

                        (ii)    Annual Bonus. In addition to Annual Base Salary,
        the Executive shall be awarded, for each fiscal year ending during the
        Employment Period, an annual bonus (the "Annual Bonus") in cash at least
        equal to the Executive's highest bonus under the Company's incentive
        plans, or any comparable bonus under any predecessor or successor plan,
        for the last three full fiscal years prior to the Effective Date
        (annualized in the event that the Executive was not employed by the
        Company for the whole of such fiscal year), provided that if no such
        bonus has been paid to the Executive, such amount shall not be less than
        $80,000 (the "Recent Annual Bonus"). Each such Annual Bonus shall be
        paid no later than the end of the third month of the fiscal year next
        following the fiscal year for which the Annual Bonus is awarded, unless
        the Executive shall elect to defer the receipt of such Annual Bonus.

                        (iii)   Incentive, Savings and Retirement Plans. During
        the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to participate in
        all incentive, savings and retirement plans, practices, policies and
        programs applicable generally to other peer executives of the Company
        and its affiliated companies, but in no event shall such plans,
        practices, policies and programs provide the Executive with incentive
        opportunities (measured with respect to both regular and special
        incentive opportunities, to the extent, if any, that such distinction is
        applicable), savings opportunities and retirement benefit opportunities,
        in each case, less favorable, in the aggregate, than the most favorable
        of those provided by the Company and its affiliated companies for the
        Executive under such plans, practices, policies and programs as in
        effect at any time during the 120-day period immediately preceding the
        Effective Date or if more favorable to the Executive, those provided
        generally at any time after the Effective Date to other peer executives
        of the Company and its affiliated companies.

                        (iv)    Welfare Benefit Plans. During the Employment
        Period, the Executive and/or the Executive's family, as the case my be,
        shall be eligible for participation in and shall receive all benefits
        under welfare benefit plans, practices, policies and programs provided
        by the Company and its affiliated companies (including, without
        limitation, medical, prescription, dental, disability, employee life,
        group life, accidental death and travel accident insurance plans and
        programs) to the extent applicable generally to other peer executives of
        the Company and its affiliated companies, but in no event shall such
        plans, practices, policies and programs provide the Executive with
        benefits which are less favorable, in the aggregate, than the most
        favorable of such plans, practices, policies and programs in effect for
        the Executive at any time during the 120-day period immediately
        preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive,
        those provided generally at any time after the Effective Date to other
        peer executives of the Company and its affiliated companies.

                                       4
<PAGE>   5
                        (v)     Expenses. During the Employment Period, the
        Executive shall be entitled to receive prompt reimbursement for all
        reasonable expenses incurred by the Executive in accordance with the
        most favorable policies, practices and procedures of the Company and its
        affiliated companies in effect for the Executive at any time during the
        120-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more
        favorable to the Executive, as in effect generally at any time
        thereafter with respect to other peer executives of the Company and its
        affiliated companies.

                        (vi)    Fringe Benefits. During the Employment Period,
        the Executive shall be entitled to fringe benefits, including, without
        limitation, tax and financial planning services, payment of club dues,
        and, if applicable, use of an automobile and payment of related
        expenses, in accordance with the most favorable plans, practices,
        programs and policies of the Company and its affiliated companies in
        effect for the Executive at any time during the 120-day period
        immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the
        Executive, as in effect generally at any time thereafter with respect to
        other peer executives of the Company and its affiliated companies.

                        (vii)   Office and Support Staff. During the Employment
        Period, the Executive shall be entitled to an office or offices of a
        size and with furnishings and other appointments, and to exclusive
        personal secretarial and other assistance, at least equal to the most
        favorable of the foregoing provided to the Executive by the Company and
        its affiliated companies at any time during the 120-day period
        immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the
        Executive, as provided generally at any time thereafter with respect to
        other peer executives of the Company and its affiliated companies.

                        (viii)  Vacation. During the Employment Period, the
        Executive shall be entitled to paid vacation in accordance with the most
        favorable plans, policies, programs and practices of the Company and its
        affiliated companies as in effect for the Executive at any time during
        the 120-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more
        favorable to the Executive, as in effect generally at any time
        thereafter with respect to other peer executives of the Company and its
        affiliated companies.

        5.      Termination of Employment.

                (a)     Death or Disability. The Executive's employment shall
terminate automatically upon the Executive's death during the Employment Period.
If the Company determines in good faith that the Disability of the Executive has
occurred during the Employment Period (pursuant to the definition of Disability
set forth below), it may give to the Executive written notice in accordance with
Section 12(b) of this Agreement of its intention to terminate the Executive's
employment. In such event, the Executive's employment with the Company shall
terminate effective on the 30th day after receipt of such notice by the
Executive (the "Disability Effective Date"), provided that, within the 30 days
after such receipt, the Executive shall not have returned to full-time
performance of the Executive's duties. For purposes of this Agreement,
"Disability" shall mean the absence of the Executive from the Executive's duties
with the Company on a full-time basis for 180 consecutive business days as a
result of incapacity due to mental or physical illness which is determined to be
total and

                                       5
<PAGE>   6
permanent by a physician selected by the Company or its insurers and acceptable
to the Executive or the Executive's legal representative.

                (b)     Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive's
employment during the Employment Period for Cause. For purposes of this
Agreement, "Cause" shall mean:

                        (i)     the willful and continued failure of the
        Executive to perform substantially the Executive's duties with the
        Company or one of its affiliates (other than any such failure resulting
        from incapacity due to physical or mental illness), after a written
        demand for substantial performance is delivered to the Executive by the
        Board which specifically identifies the manner in which the Board
        believes that the Executive has not substantially performed the
        Executive's duties, or

                        (ii)    the willful engaging by the Executive in illegal
        conduct or gross misconduct which is materially and demonstrably
        injurious to the Company.

For purposes of this provision, no act or failure to act, on the part of the
Executive, shall be considered "willful" unless it is done, or omitted to be
done, by the Executive in bad faith or without reasonable belief that the
Executive's action or omission was in the best interests of the Company. Any
act, or failure to act, based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly
adopted by the Board or upon the advice of counsel for the Company shall be
conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in
good faith and in the best interests of the Company. The cessation of employment
of the Executive shall not be deemed to be for Cause unless and until there
shall have been delivered to the Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted
by the affirmative vote of not less than three-quarters of the entire membership
of the Board at a meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose (after
reasonable notice is provided to the Executive and the Executive is given an
opportunity, together with counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that,
in the good faith opinion of the Board, the Executive is guilty of the conduct
described in subparagraph (i) or (ii) above, and specifying the particulars
thereof in detail.

                (c)     Good Reason. The Executive's employment may be
terminated by the Executive for Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement,
"Good Reason" shall mean:

                        (i)     the assignment to the Executive of any duties
        inconsistent in any respect with the Executive's position (including
        status, offices, titles and reporting requirements), authority, duties
        or responsibilities as contemplated by Section 4(a) of this Agreement,
        or any other action by the Company which results in a diminution in such
        position, authority, duties or responsibilities, excluding for this
        purpose an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action not taken in
        bad faith and which is remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of
        notice thereof given by the Executive;

                        (ii)    any failure by the Company to comply with any of
        the provisions of Section 4(b) of this Agreement, other than an
        isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent failure not occurring in bad
        faith and which is remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of
        notice thereof given by the Executive;

                                       6
<PAGE>   7
                        (iii)   the Company's requiring the Executive to be
        based at any office or location other than as provided in Section
        4(a)(i)(B) hereof or the Company's requiring the Executive to travel on
        Company business to a substantially greater extent than required
        immediately prior to the Effective Date;

                        (iv)    any purported termination by the Company of the
        Executive's employment otherwise than as expressly permitted by this
        Agreement; or

                        (v)     any failure by the Company to comply with and
        satisfy Section 11(c) of this Agreement.

For purposes of this Section 5(c), any good faith determination of "Good Reason"
made by the Executive shall be conclusive. Anything in this Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding, a termination by the Executive for any reason during
the 30-day period immediately following the first anniversary of the Effective
Date shall be deemed to be a termination for Good Reason for all purposes of
this Agreement.

                (d)     Notice of Termination. Any termination by the Company
for Cause, or by the Executive for Good Reason, shall be communicated by Notice
of Termination to the other party hereto given in accordance with Section 12(b)
of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination"
means a written notice which (i) indicates the specific termination provision in
this Agreement relied upon, (ii) to the extent applicable, sets forth in
reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for
termination of the Executive's employment under the provision so indicated and
(iii) if the Date of Termination (as defined below) is other than the date of
receipt of such notice, specifies the termination date (which date shall be not
more than thirty days after the giving of such notice). The failure by the
Executive or the Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or
circumstance which contributes to a showing of Good Reason or Cause shall not
waive any right of the Executive or the Company, respectively, hereunder or
preclude the Executive or the Company, respectively, from asserting such fact or
circumstance in enforcing the Executive's or the Company's rights hereunder.

                (e)     Date of Termination. "Date of Termination" means (i) if
the Executive's employment is terminated by the Company for Cause, or by the
Executive for Good Reason, the date of receipt of the Notice of Termination or
any later date specified therein, as the case may be, (ii) if the Executive's
employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause or Disability, the
Date of Termination shall be the date on which the Company notifies the
Executive of such termination and (iii) if the Executive's employment is
terminated by reason of death or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be
the date of death of the Executive or the Disability Effective Date, as the case
may be.

        6.      Obligations of the Company upon Termination.

                (a)     Good Reason; Other Than for Cause, Death or Disability.
If, during the Employment Period, the Company shall terminate the Executive's
employment other than for Cause or Disability or the Executive shall terminate
employment for Good Reason:

                                       7
<PAGE>   8
                        (i)     the Company shall pay to the Executive in a lump
        sum in cash within 30 days after the Date of Termination the aggregate
        of the following amounts:

                                A.      the sum of (1) the Executive's Annual
                        Base Salary through the Date of Termination to the
                        extent not theretofore paid, (2) the product of (x) the
                        higher of (I) the Recent Annual Bonus and (II) the
                        Annual Bonus paid or payable, including any bonus or
                        portion thereof which has been earned but deferred (and
                        annualized for any fiscal year consisting of less than
                        twelve full months or during which the Executive was
                        employed for less than twelve full months), for the most
                        recently completed fiscal year during the Employment
                        Period, if any (such higher amount being referred to as
                        the "Highest Annual Bonus") and (y) a fraction, the
                        numerator of which is the number of days in the current
                        fiscal year through the Date of Termination, and the
                        denominator of which is 365 and (3) any compensation
                        previously deferred by the Executive (together with any
                        accrued interest or earnings thereon) and any accrued
                        vacation pay, in each case to the extent not theretofore
                        paid (the sum of the amounts described in clauses (1),
                        (2), and (3) shall be hereinafter referred to as the
                        "Accrued Obligations"); and

                                B.      the amount equal to the product of (1)
                        two and (2) the sum of (x) the Executive's Annual Base
                        Salary and (y) the Highest Annual Bonus; and

                                C.      an amount equal to the excess of (a) the
                        benefit which the Executive would have received under
                        the Company's 401(k) plan if the Executive's employment
                        continued until the second anniversary of the Date of
                        Termination assuming for this purpose that all benefits
                        are fully vested, and, assuming that the Executive's
                        compensation in each of such years is the sum of the
                        Annual Salary and the Recent Annual Bonus and the
                        Company's contribution in each such year is equal to its
                        contribution in the year prior to the year in which the
                        Date of Termination occurs, over (b) the Executive's
                        actual benefit (paid or payable), if any, under the
                        Company's 401(k) plan as of the Date of Termination;

                        (ii)    all stock incentives granted to the Executive
        shall vest immediately;

                        (iii)   for two years after the Executive's Date of
        Termination, or such longer period as may be provided by the terms of
        the appropriate plan, program, practice or policy, the Company shall
        continue benefits to the Executive and/or the Executive's family at
        least equal to those which would have been provided to them in
        accordance with the plans, programs, practices and policies described in
        Section 4(b)(iv) of this Agreement if the Executive's employment had not
        been terminated or, if more favorable to the Executive, as in effect
        generally at any time thereafter with respect to other peer executives
        of the Company and its affiliated companies and their families,
        provided, however, that if the Executive becomes reemployed with another
        employer and is eligible

                                       8
<PAGE>   9
        to receive medical or other welfare benefits under another employer
        provided plan, the medical and other welfare benefits described herein
        shall be secondary to those provided under such other plan during such
        applicable period of eligibility. For purposes of determining
        eligibility (but not the time of commencement of benefits) of the
        Executive for retiree benefits pursuant to such plans, practices,
        programs and policies, the Executive shall be considered to have
        remained employed until two years after the Date of Termination and to
        have retired on the last day of such period;

                        (iv)    the Company shall, at its sole expense as
        incurred, provide the Executive with outplacement services the scope and
        provider of which shall be selected by the Executive in his sole
        discretion; and

                        (v)     to the extent not theretofore paid or provided,
        the Company shall timely pay or provide to the Executive any other
        amounts or benefits required to be paid or provided or which the
        Executive is eligible to receive under any plan, program, policy or
        practice or contract or agreement of the Company and its affiliated
        companies (such other amounts and benefits shall be hereinafter referred
        to as the "Other Benefits").

                (b)     Death. If the Executive's employment is terminated by
reason of the Executive's death during the Employment Period, this Agreement
shall terminate without further obligations to the Executive's legal
representatives under this Agreement, other than for payment of Accrued
Obligations and the timely payment or provision of Other Benefits. Accrued
Obligations shall be paid to the Executive's estate or beneficiary, as
applicable, in a lump sum in cash within 60 days of the Date of Termination.
With respect to the provision of Other Benefits, the term Other Benefits as
utilized in this Section 6(b) shall include, without limitation, and the
Executive's estate and/or beneficiaries shall be entitled to receive, benefits
at least equal to the most favorable benefits provided by the Company and
affiliated companies to the estates and beneficiaries of peer executives of the
Company and such affiliated companies under such plans, programs, practices and
policies relating to death benefits, if any, as in effect with respect to other
peer executives and their beneficiaries at any time during the 120-day period
immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the
Executive's estate and/or the Executive's beneficiaries, as in effect on the
date of the Executive's death with respect to other peer executives of the
Company and its affiliated companies and their beneficiaries.

                (c)     Disability. If the Executive's employment is terminated
by reason of the Executive's Disability during the Employment Period, this
Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to the Executive, other
than for payment of Accrued Obligations and the timely payment or provision of
Other Benefits. Accrued Obligations shall be paid to the Executive in a lump sum
in cash within 60 days of the Date of Termination. With respect to the provision
of Other Benefits, the term Other Benefits as utilized in this Section 6(c)
shall include, and the Executive shall be entitled after the Disability
Effective Date to receive, disability and other benefits at least equal to the
most favorable of those generally provided by the Company and its affiliated
companies to disabled executives and/or their families in accordance with such
plans, programs, practices and policies relating to disability, if any, as in
effect generally with respect to other peer executives and their families at any
time during the 120-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if
more favorable to the Executive and/or the

                                       9
<PAGE>   10
Executive's family, as in effect at any time thereafter generally with respect
to other peer executives of the Company and its affiliated companies and their
families.

                (d)     Cause; Other than for Good Reason. If the Executive's
employment shall be terminated for Cause during the Employment Period, this
Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to the Executive other
than the obligation to pay to the Executive (x) his Annual Base Salary through
the Date of Termination, (y) the amount of any compensation previously deferred
by the Executive, and (z) Other Benefits, in each case to the extent theretofore
unpaid. If the Executive voluntarily terminates employment during the Employment
Period, excluding a termination for Good Reason, this Agreement shall terminate
without further obligations to the Executive, other than for Accrued Obligations
and the timely payment or provision of Other Benefits. In such case, all Accrued
Obligations shall be paid to the Executive in a lump sum in cash within 60 days
of the Date of Termination.

        7.      Non-exclusivity of Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall
prevent or limit the Executive's continuing or future participation in any plan,
program, policy or practice provided by the Company or any of its affiliated
companies and for which the Executive may qualify, nor, subject to Section
12(f), shall anything herein limit or otherwise affect such rights as the
Executive may have under any contract or agreement with the Company or any of
its affiliated companies. Amounts which are vested benefits or which the
Executive is otherwise entitled to receive under any plan, policy, practice or
program of or any contract or agreement with the Company or any of its
affiliated companies at or subsequent to the Date of Termination shall be
payable in accordance with such plan, policy, practice or program or contract or
agreement except as explicitly modified by this Agreement.

        8.      Full Settlement. The Company's obligation to make the payments
provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations
hereunder shall not be affected by any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment,
defense or other claim, right or action which the Company may have against the
Executive or others. In no event shall the Executive be obligated to seek other
employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable
to the Executive under any of the provisions of this Agreement and such amounts
shall not be reduced whether or not the Executive obtains other employment.

        9.      Certain Additional Payments by the Company.

                (a)     Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding and except as set forth below, in the event it shall be
determined that any payment or distribution by the Company or its affiliates to
or for the benefit of the Executive (whether paid or payable or distributed or
distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, but
determined without regard to any additional payments required under this Section
9) (a "Payment") would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of
the Code or any interest or penalties are incurred by the Executive with respect
to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and
penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Excise Tax"), then
the Executive shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a "Gross-Up
Payment") in an amount such that after payment by the Executive of all taxes
(including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes),
including, without limitation, any income taxes (and any interest and penalties
imposed with respect thereto) and Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up

                                       10
<PAGE>   11
Payment, the Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the
Excise Tax imposed upon the Payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions
of this Section 9(a), if it shall be determined that the Executive is entitled
to a Gross-Up Payment, but that the Payments do not exceed 110% of the greatest
amount (the "Reduced Amount") that could be paid to the Executive such that the
receipt of Payments would not give rise to any Excise Tax, then no Gross-Up
Payment shall be made to the Executive and the Payments, in the aggregate, shall
be reduced to the Reduced Amount.

                (b)     Subject to the provisions of Section 9(c), all
determinations required to be made under this Section 9, including whether and
when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and
the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made
by a certified public accounting firm as may be designated by the Executive (the
"Accounting Firm") which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to
the Company and the Executive within 15 business days of the receipt of notice
from the Executive that there has been a Payment, or such earlier time as is
requested by the Company. In the event that the Accounting Firm is serving as
accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change
of Control, the Executive shall appoint another nationally recognized accounting
firm to make the determinations required hereunder (which accounting firm shall
then be referred to as the Accounting Firm hereunder). All fees and expenses of
the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company. Any Gross-Up Payment,
as determined pursuant to this Section 9, shall be paid by the Company to the
Executive within five days of the receipt of the Accounting Firm's
determination. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon
the Company and the Executive. As a result of the uncertainty in the application
of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the
Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments which will not
have been made by the Company should have been made ("Underpayment"), consistent
with the calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event that the
Company exhausts its remedies pursuant to Section 9(c) and the Executive
thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm
shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such
Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of the
Executive.

                (c)     The Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any
claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the
payment by the Company of the Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given
as soon as practicable but no later than ten business days after the Executive
is informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the Company of the nature
of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. The
Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the 30-day period
following the date on which it gives such notice to the Company (or such shorter
period ending on the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim
is due). If the Company notifies the Executive in writing prior to the
expiration of such period that it desires to contest such claim, the Executive
shall:

                        (i)     give the Company any information reasonably
        requested by the Company relating to such claim,

                                       11
<PAGE>   12
                        (ii)    take such action in connection with contesting
        such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time
        to time, including, without limitation, accepting legal representation
        with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by the
        Company,

                        (iii)   cooperate with the Company in good faith in
        order effectively to contest such claim, and

                        (iv)    permit the Company to participate in any
        proceedings relating to such claim;

provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and
expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection
with such contest and shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an
after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest and
penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and
payment of costs and expenses. Without limitation on the foregoing provisions of
this Section 9(c), the Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection
with such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forgo any and all
administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing
authority in respect of such claim and may, at its sole option, either direct
the Executive to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the claim
in any permissible manner, and the Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to
a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial
jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Company shall
determine; provided, however, that if the Company directs the Executive to pay
such claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall advance the amount of such
payment to the Executive, on an interest-free basis and shall indemnify and hold
the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or income tax
(including interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to
such advance or with respect to any imputed income with respect to such advance;
and further provided that any extension of the statute of limitations relating
to payment of taxes for the taxable year of the Executive with respect to which
such contested amount is claimed to be due is limited solely to such contested
amount. Furthermore, the Company's control of the contest shall be limited to
issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder and
the Executive shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any
other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing
authority.

                (d)     If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount
advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 9(c), the Executive becomes entitled
to receive any refund with respect to such claim, the Executive shall (subject
to the Company's complying with the requirements of Section 9(c)) promptly pay
to the Company the amount of such refund (together with any interest paid or
credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto). If, after the receipt by the
Executive of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 9(c), a
determination is made that the Executive shall not be entitled to any refund
with respect to such claim and the Company does not notify the Executive in
writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration
of 30 days after such determination, then such advance shall be forgiven and
shall not be required to be repaid and the amount of such advance shall offset,
to the extent thereof, the amount of Gross-Up Payment required to be paid.

        10.     Confidential Information. The Executive shall hold in a
fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the Company all secret or confidential
information, knowledge or data relating to the Company or any of its affiliated
companies, and their respective businesses, which shall have been obtained by
the Executive during the Executive's employment by the Company or any of its
affiliated companies and which shall not be or become public knowledge (other
than by acts by the Executive or representatives of the Executive in violation
of this Agreement). After termination of the Executive's employment with the
Company, the Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the
Company or as may otherwise be required by law or legal process, communicate or
divulge any such information, knowledge or data to anyone other than the Company
and those designated by it. In no event shall an asserted violation of the
provisions of this Section 10 constitute a basis for deferring or withholding
any amounts otherwise payable to the Executive under this Agreement.

        11.     Successors.

                (a)     This Agreement is personal to the Executive and without
the prior written consent of the Company shall not be assignable by the
Executive other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. This
Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive's
legal representatives.

                (b)     This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns.

                (c)     The Company will require any successor (whether direct
 or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume
expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same
extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession
had taken place. As used in this Agreement, "Company" shall mean the Company as
hereinbefore defined and any successor to its business and/or assets as
aforesaid which assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement by operation of
law, or otherwise.

        12.     Miscellaneous.

                (a)     This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Oregon, without reference to principles
of conflict of laws. The captions of this Agreement are not part of the
provisions hereof and shall have no force or effect. This Agreement may not be
amended or modified otherwise than by a written agreement executed by the
parties hereto or their respective successors and legal representatives.

                (b)     All notices and other communications hereunder shall be
in writing and shall be given by hand delivery to the other party or by
registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid,

                                     Attention: General Counsel

or to such other address as either party shall have furnished to the other in
writing in accordance herewith. Notice and communications shall be effective
when actually received by the addressee.

                (c)     The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of
this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other
provision of this Agreement.

                (d)     The Company may withhold from any amounts payable under
this Agreement such Federal, state, local or foreign taxes as shall be required
to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

                (e)     The Executive's or the Company's failure to insist upon
strict compliance with any provision of this Agreement or the failure to
assert any right the Executive or the Company may have hereunder, including,
without limitation, the right of the Executive to terminate employment for Good
Reason pursuant to Section 5(c)(i)-(v) of this Agreement, shall not be deemed to
be a waiver of such provision or right or any other provision or right of this
Agreement.

                (f)     From and after the Effective Date this Agreement shall
supersede any other agreement between the parties with respect to the subject
matter hereof, including, without limitation, the Salary Continuation Agreement
by and among the Company, West Coast Bank and the Executive dated as of April 3,
2000.

                (g)     Any dispute or claim arising out of or brought in
connection with this Agreement, will, if requested by any party, be submitted to
and settled by, arbitration under the rules then in effect of the American
Arbitration Association (or under any other form of arbitration mutually
acceptable to the parties involved). Any award rendered in arbitration will be
final and will bind the parties, and a judgment on it may be entered in the
highest court of the forum having jurisdiction. The arbitrator will render a
written decision, naming the substantially prevailing party in the action, and
will award such party all costs and expenses incurred, including reasonable
attorneys' fees.

                (h)     If any breach of or default under this Agreement results
in either party incurring attorney or other fees, costs or expenses (including
in legal action or arbitration), the substantially prevailing party is entitled
to recover from the non-prevailing party any and all legal fees, costs and
expenses, including attorney fees.
