		C.	
The Employer has administered the Agreement in compliance with its terms, consistent with Code Section 409A and guidance published by the IRS (including IRS Notice 2005-1 and proposed and final regulations under section 409A), applying a good faith reasonable interpretation, to the extent necessary.

	
D.

	
In reliance upon IRS Notice 2007-86 and prior IRS notices, the Parties now desire to amend the Agreement effective January 1, 2009, to fully comply with final regulations under Code Section 409A.

1.

	
Change in Control. Section 1.2 of the Agreement is amended in its entirety to read as follows:

	
1.2

	
"Change in Control" means the occurrence of any of the following events with respect to the Bank or its parent holding Company, First Northern Community Bancorp ("Bancorp"):

	
(a)

	
Merger: A merger into or consolidation with another corporation, or merger of another corporation into Bank or Bancorp, and as a result less than 50% of the combined voting power of the resulting corporation

(b)

	
Acquisition of Significant Share Ownership:  One person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires (or has acquired during the twelve

(12) month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) ownership of stock possessing thirty percent (30%) or more of the total voting power of the stock of Bank or Bancorp (this constitutes acquisition of "Effective Control"). No Change in Control shall occur if additional voting shares are acquired by a person or persons who possessed Effective Control prior to acquiring additional shares. This subpart (b) shall not apply to beneficial ownership of voting shares held in a fiduciary capacity by an entity of which Bank or Bancorp directly or indirectly beneficially owns 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities, or voting shares held by an employee benefit plan maintained for the benefit of the Bank's employees.

ARTICLE 2 LIFETIME BENEFITS

	
2.1

	
Normal Retirement Benefit. Upon the Executive's Termination of Employment on or after the Normal Retirement Age for reasons other than death, the Bank shall pay to the Executive the benefit described in this Section 2.1 instead of any other benefit under this Agreement.

	
2.1.1

	
Amount of Benefit. The annual benefit under this Section 2.1 is $50,000. The Bank's Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, increase the annual benefit under this Section 2.1.1, but any increase shall require recalculation of Schedule A. The benefits reflected in Schedule A are based on the assumption that the Executive retires at age 65. If the Executive instead continues to serve as an officer of the Bank after the Normal Retirement Age, the benefits reflected in Schedule A shall be recalculated annually until the Executive's Normal Retirement Date, using the same discount rate reflected in Schedule A.

	
2.1.2

	
Payment of Benefit. Beginning with the month after the Executive's Normal Retirement Date, the Bank shall pay the annual benefit to the Executive in 12 equal monthly installments on the first day of each month. The annual benefit shall be paid to the Executive for 10 years.

	
                     2.2

	
Early Termination Benefit. Upon Early Termination on or after Early Retirement Age, the Bank shall pay to the Executive the benefit described in this Section 2.2 instead of any other benefit under this Agreement.

	
  2.2.1

	
Amount of Benefit. The benefit under this Section 2.2 is the Early Termination Annual Benefit amount set forth in Schedule A for the Plan Year ending immediately before the Early Termination Date.  The Bank's Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, increase the annual benefit under this Section 2.2.1, but any increase shall require recalculation of Schedule A.

	
2.2.2

	
Payment of Benefit.  The Bank shall pay the annual benefit to the Executive in 12 equal monthly installments on the first day of each month commencing with the month after the Early Termination Date. The annual benefit shall be paid to the Executive for 10 years.

	
2.3

	
Disability Benefit. If the Executive terminates employment because of Disability before the Normal Retirement Age, the Bank shall pay to the Executive the benefit described in this Section 2.3 instead of any other benefit under this Agreement.

	
2.3.1

	
Amount of Benefit. The benefit under this Section 2.3 is the Disability Annual Benefit amount set forth in Schedule A for the Plan Year ending immediately before the date on which termination of the Executive's employment occurs. The Bank's Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, increase the annual benefit under this Section 2.3.1, but any increase shall require recalculation of Schedule A.

	
2.3.2

	
Payment of Benefit. Beginning with the month after Termination of Employment due to Disability, the Bank shall pay the Disability Annual Benefit amount to the Executive in 12 equal monthly installments on the first day of each month. The annual benefit shall be paid to the Executive for 10 years.

	
2.4

	
Change-in-Control Benefit.   If the Executive's employment with the Bank terminates involuntarily within 24 months after the first occurrence of a Change in Control or in the event the Executive terminates employment voluntarily for Good Reason within 24 months of such Change in Control, the Bank shall pay to the Executive the benefit described in this Section 2.4 instead of any other benefit under this Agreement. However, no benefits shall be payable under this Agreement if the Executive's employment is terminated under Article 5 of this Agreement.

	
2.4.1

	
Amount of Benefit: The Change-in-Control Benefit under this Section 2.4 is determined by vesting the Executive in $345,712 (the Normal Retirement Age Accrual Balance described in Section 2.1) calculating the present value of said benefit using a discount rate equal to the 10-year US Treasury bill rate at the Plan Year ending immediately before the date on which the Termination of Employment occurs. For example, assume that a Change in Control occurs on January 15, 2003 and the Executive is involuntarily terminated from employment with the Bank on January 30, 2003. The Executive's Change-in-Control benefit would be determined by discounting $345,712 by the 10-year

U.S. Treasury bill rate at December 31, 2002 (the Plan Year ending immediately before the date on which the Termination of Employment occurs). Assuming solely for illustration the 10-year U.S. Treasury bill rate on December 31, 2002 were 4.8%, the Executive's Change-in-Control benefit would be $140,248. This example is provided for illustrative purposes only. The Bank's Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion,

increase the benefit under this Section 2.4.1, but any increase shall require recalculation of Schedule A.

	
2.4.2

	
Payment of Benefit: The Bank shall pay the Change-in-Control benefit under Section 2.4 of this Agreement to the Executive in one lump sum within three days after the Executive's Termination of Employment.

	
2.5

	
Petition for Payment of Vested Normal Retirement Benefit, Vested Early Termination Benefit or Vested Disability Benefit. If the Executive is entitled to the normal retirement

benefit provided by Section 2.1, the Early Termination benefit provided by Section 2.2, or the Disability benefit provided by Section 2.3, the Executive may petition the Board of Directors to have the Accrual Balance amount corresponding to that particular benefit paid to the Executive in a single lump sum after

(a) deduction of any normal retirement benefits, Early Termination benefits or Disability benefits already paid and (b) addition of interest at the rate of 8.0% on the Accrual Balance not yet paid for the period from Termination of Employment to payment of the lump sum amount. The Board of Directors shall have sole and absolute discretion about whether to pay the remaining Accrual Balance in a lump sum. If payment of the remaining Accrual Balance is paid in a single lump sum, the Bank shall have no further obligations under this Agreement.

	
2.6

	
Change-in-Control Payout of Vested Normal Retirement Benefit, Vested Early Termination Benefit or Vested Disability Benefit Being Paid to the Executive at the Time of a Change in Control. If a Change in Control occurs at any time during the entire 10-year salary continuation benefit payment period and if at the time of that Change in Control the Executive is receiving the benefit provided by Section 2.1.2, Section 2.2.2 or Section 2.3.2, the Bank shall pay the remaining salary continuation benefits to the Executive, his beneficiaries, or estate in a lump sum within three days after

the Change in Control. The lump-sum payment due to the Executive, his beneficiaries or estate as a result of a Change in Control shall be an amount equal to the Accrual Balance amount corresponding to that particular benefit then being paid to the Executive, his estate or beneficiaries pursuant to Section 2.1.2, Section 2.2.2 or Section 2.3.2 after (a) deduction of any normal retirement benefits, Early Termination benefits or Disability benefits already paid and (b) addition of interest at the rate of 8.0% on the Accrual Balance not yet paid for the period from Termination of Employment to payment of the lump sum amount. If payment of the remaining Accrual Balance is paid in a single lump sum, the Bank shall have                 no further obligations under this Agreement.

	
2.7

	
Contradiction in Terms of Agreement and Schedule A. If there is a contradiction

in the terms of this Agreement and the Schedule A attached hereto with the actual amount of a particular benefit amount due the Executive pursuant to Section 2.2, 2.3, or 2.4 hereof, then the actual amount of said benefit set forth in the Agreement shall control.

1 The Accrual Balance reflects payment at the beginning of each month during retirement, with the first payment occurring during December 2021.

2 Benefit is based on present value of the current payment stream of the vested accrual balance using a standard discount rate (8.00%).

3 Bruce A. Orris satisfies the Early Retirement Age definition of §1.5 on his birthday on November 21, 2011, and thus is vested in his Early Termination Benefit as of his 55th birthday. Mr. Orris was hired by the Bank on July 18, 1983 and thus will have 10 years of service by the time of his 55th birthday.
