RECITALS

A.    Employee commenced employment with the Employer on or about                           .

B.    In connection with that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated of even date herewith, by and among Employer, First Business Bank, N.A., a national banking association, and FB Bancorp, a California corporation (the “Merger Agreement”), Employee’s employment, with Employer will terminate effective as of the Effective Time of the Merger (as these terms are defined in the Merger Agreement).

C.    Employee and the Employer desire to settle and compromise any and all possible claims against the Employer by Employee arising out of their relationship to date, including Employee’s employment with the Employer and the termination of Employee’s employment, and to provide for a general release of any and all such claims.

AGREEMENT

1.     Separation Pay/Consideration.  Employer and Executive hereby agree: (i) that this Agreement constitutes the new Exhibit A to the Employment Agreement (as defined below), superseding any prior version attached as Exhibit A to the Employment Agreement; and (ii) notwithstanding execution of this Agreement Executive shall continue to be employed under the terms of the Employment Agreement until the Effective Time of the Merger at which time Employer and Executive agree that the Employment Agreement shall terminate subject to the terms specified therein and this Agreement shall also become effective.  In consideration of the covenants and releases set forth herein, the Bank agrees to pay Employee the amount payable to him and the non-monetary consideration (if any) due him, pursuant to and in accordance with, Paragraphs 5.2, 5.3 or 5.4, as the case may be, of the Employment Agreement dated                        , 200 , by and between the Employer and Employee (the “Employment Agreement”), less all applicable state and federal deductions (in each case, the “Severance Benefit”), $2,000 of which shall be consideration for Employee’s release of ADEA claims as set forth in Section 5, below; provided that no such Severance Benefit shall be made until at least eight (8) days have past since Employee’s execution of this Agreement.  The check representing the Severance Benefit shall be mailed to Employee at his home address at                                                                         .  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if Employee qualifies as a “specified employee ,” as defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, payment of the Severance Benefit shall be delayed for a period of six months from the date of termination of Employee’s employment and calculated in accordance with Section 5.3.4 of the Employment Agreement.  Payment of the Severance Benefit hereunder shall be contingent upon the closing of the Merger as contemplated in the Merger Agreement.

2.     Regulatory Restrictions.  The parties understand and agree that at the time any payment would otherwise be made or benefit provided under Section 1 hereof, depending on the facts and circumstances existing at such time, the satisfaction of such obligations by the Employer may be deemed by a regulatory authority to be illegal, an unsafe and unsound practice, or for some other reason not properly due or payable by the Employer.  Among other things, the regulations at 12 C.F.R. Part 30, Appendix A promulgated pursuant to Section 39(a) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, and at 12 C.F.R. Part 359, or similar regulations or regulatory action following similar principles may apply at such time.  The Employer agrees that to the extent reasonably feasible, it will in good faith seek to determine the position of the appropriate regulatory authority in advance of each payment or benefit otherwise due under this Agreement, including seeking the approval or acquiescence of the appropriate regulatory authorities, if required.  The parties understand, acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Employer shall not be obligated to make any payment or provide any benefit under this Agreement where (i) an appropriate regulatory authority does not approve or acquiesce as required, or (ii) the Employer has been informed either orally or in writing by a representative of the appropriate regulatory authority that it is the position of such regulatory authority that making such payment or providing such benefit would constitute an unsafe and unsound practice, violate a written agreement with the regulatory authority, violate an applicable rule, law or regulation, or would cause the representative of the regulatory authority to recommend enforcement action against the Employer.

3.     Covenants.  During the term of any Section 409A waiting period, Employee re-affirms and agrees that he shall comply with his obligations and duties under Section 6 of the Employment Agreement, except for Paragraph 6.6.1.

4.     Release of All Claims Except Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”) Claims.

a.     In consideration of the payment and other benefits described in Section 1, which Employee would otherwise not be entitled to except for signing this Agreement, Employee does hereby unconditionally, irrevocably and absolutely release and discharge the Employer and any related holding, parent, sister or subsidiary entities and all of their respective boards of directors, officers, employees, agents, volunteers, attorneys, insurers, divisions, successors and assigns from any and all loss, liability, claims, demands, causes of action or suits of any type, whether in law and/or in equity, related directly or indirectly, or in any way connected with any transaction, affairs or occurrences between them to date, including, but not limited to, Employee’s employment with the Employer and the termination of said employment.  This Agreement specifically applies, without limitation, to any and all contract or tort claims, claims for wrongful termination, wage claims, and claims arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Equal Pay Act, the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the California Family Rights Act, the California Labor Code, and any and all federal or state statutes or provisions governing the employment relationship or discrimination in employment except the federal statute specifically excluded hereafter.  This release specifically excludes any and all loss, liability, claims, demands, causes of action or suits of any type arising under the ADEA.  Employee’s release of ADEA claims will be addressed separately in Section 5 of this Agreement.

2

b.     Employee irrevocably and absolutely agrees that he will not prosecute nor allow to be prosecuted on his behalf, in any administrative agency, whether federal or state, or in any court, whether federal or state, any claim or demand of any type related to the matters released above, it being the intention of the parties that with the execution by Employee of this release, the Employer and any related holding, parent, sister or subsidiary corporations or entities and all of their respective boards of directors, officers, employees, agents, volunteers, attorneys, insurers, divisions, successors and assigns will be absolutely, unconditionally and forever discharged of and from all obligations to or on behalf of Employee related in any way to the matters discharged herein.

5.     Release of All ADEA Claims.

a.     This section of the Agreement exclusively addresses Employee’s release of claims arising under federal law involving discrimination on the basis of age in employment (age 40 and above).  This section is provided separately, in compliance with federal law, including but not limited to the Older Workers’ Benefit Protection Act of 1990, to ensure that Employee clearly understands his rights so that any release of age discrimination claims under federal law (the ADEA) is knowing and voluntary on the part of Employee.

b.     Employee represents, acknowledges and agrees that the Employer has advised him, in writing, to discuss this Agreement with an attorney, and to the extent, if any, that Employee has desired, Employee has done so; that the Employer has given Employee twenty-one (21) days from receipt of this Agreement to review and consider this Agreement before signing it, and Employee understands that he may use as much of this twenty-one (21) day period as he wishes prior to signing; that no promise, representation, warranty or agreements not contained herein have been made by or with anyone to cause him to sign this Agreement; that he has read this Agreement in its entirety, and fully understands and is aware of its meaning, intent, content and legal effect; and that he is executing this release voluntarily and free of any duress or coercion.

c.     The parties acknowledge that for a period of seven (7) days following the execution of this Agreement, Employee may revoke the Agreement, and the Agreement shall not become effective or enforceable until the revocation period has expired.  This Agreement shall become effective eight (8) days after it has been signed by Employee and the Employer, and in the event the parties do not sign on the same date, then this Agreement shall become effective eight (8) days after the date it is signed by Employee.

d.     In consideration of the separation payment and other benefits made to Employee described in Section 1 of this Agreement, which Employee would otherwise not be entitled to except for signing this Agreement, Employee does hereby unconditionally, irrevocably and absolutely release and discharge the Employer and any related holding, parent, sister or subsidiary entities and all of their respective boards of directors, officers, employees, agents, volunteers, attorneys, insurers, divisions, successors and assigns from any and all loss, liability, claims, demands, causes of action or suits of any type arising under the ADEA and related directly or indirectly to Employee’s employment with the Employer and the termination of said employment.
