SECOND AMENDED LIFE INSURANCE ENDORSEMENT METHOD SPLIT DOLLAR AGREEMENT

This Second Amended Life Insurance Endorsement Method Split Dollar Agreement (the "Agreement") is made effective January 1, 2012, by and between Central Valley Community Bank (the "Bank") and David Kinross (the “Insured”), each a “Party” and together the “Parties.” This Agreement supersedes and amends in its entirety that certain Amended Life Insurance Endorsement Method Split Dollar Agreement by and between the Bank and the Insured, effective March 1, 2007 (the "Prior Agreement").

The rights and duties of the Bank and the Insured with respect to the above-referenced life insurance policy ("Policy") shall be as set forth below:

Refer to the Policy for the definition of all terms in this Agreement.

Title and ownership to the Policy shall reside in the Bank for its use and for the use of the Insured in accordance with this Agreement. The Bank alone may, to the extent of its interest, exercise the right to borrow or withdraw on the Policy cash values. Where the Bank and the Insured (or assignee, with the consent of the Insured) mutually agree to exercise the right to increase the coverage under the Policy, then the rights, duties and benefits of the parties to such increased coverage shall continue to be subject to the terms of this Agreement.

The Insured (or assignee) shall have the right and power to designate a beneficiary or

beneficiaries to receive the Insured's share of the proceeds payable upon the death of the Insured, and to elect and change a payment option for such beneficiary, subject to any right or interest the Bank may have in such proceeds, as provided in this Agreement. Any Beneficiary Designation Form completed by the Insured under the prior agreement shall remain in full force and effect unless and until modified or revoked by the Insured.

The Bank intends to pay an amount equal to the planned premiums and any other premium payments that might become necessary to keep the Policy in force.

Annually, the Insured will receive a taxable benefit equal to the assumed cost of insurance as required by the Internal Revenue Service. The Bank (or its administrator) will report to the Insured the amount of imputed income each year on Form W-2 or its equivalent.

Subject to Paragraphs VII and IX herein, the division of the Policy death proceeds shall be as follows:

During the life of the Insured, the Bank shall at all times be entitled to an amount equal to the Policy’s cash value, as that term is defined in the insurance contract, less any Policy loans and unpaid interest outstanding, cash withdrawals previously taken by the Bank, and any applicable surrender charges. Such cash value shall be determined as of the date of surrender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the Insured's death, the Policy proceeds shall first be used to satisfy the obligations to the Insured's beneficiaries set forth in Paragraph VI.

In the event that the Policy involves an endowment or annuity element, the Bank’s right and interest in any endowment proceeds or annuity benefits, on expiration of the deferment period, shall be determined under the provisions of this Agreement by regarding such endowment proceeds or the commuted value of such annuity benefits as the Policy's cash value. Any endowment proceeds or annuity benefits shall be considered to be like death proceeds for purposes of division under this Agreement.

This Agreement shall terminate upon the occurrence of any one of the following:

with interest.

If the Insured (or assignee) fails to exercise this option, fails to tender the required cash payment, or dies within the fifteen (15) day period, then the option shall terminate, and the Insured (or assignee) agrees that all of the Insured’s rights, interest and claims in the Policy shall terminate as of the date of termination of this Agreement. The Insured expressly agrees that this Agreement constitutes sufficient written notice of the Insured’s option to receive an absolute assignment of the Policy as set forth herein.

Except as provided above, this Agreement shall terminate upon payment of the death benefit proceeds in accordance with Paragraph VI above.

The Insured may not, without the written consent of the Bank, assign to any individual, trust or other organization, any right, title or interest in the Policy nor any rights, options, privileges or duties created under this Agreement.

This Agreement shall bind the Insured and the Bank, their heirs, successors, personal representatives and assigns.
