1.1           “Annual Benefit Amount” means an amount based on the Participant’s attained age when the Participant’s employment with the Company terminates:

1.2           “Beneficiary” means the beneficiary determined under section 4 to receive any benefits under the Plan that become payable after the death of the Participant.

1.3           “Benefit Commencement Date” means the date on which the Participant attains the age of 60 years.

2.             Purposes.  The Participant is a valued employee of the Company.  The Company recognizes that the Participant has performed his services with ability and distinction, and that the growth and success of the Company’s business reflects and will reflect the services rendered by the Participant.  To reward and retain the services of the Participant, and to assist the Participant in providing for the contingencies of retirement, the Company adopts this Plan to provide certain salary continuation retirement benefits to the Participant or the Participant’s Beneficiary.  The Company and the Participant intend that: (a) this Plan is unfunded for tax purposes and for purposes of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; (b) this Plan is maintained by the Company primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for the Participant; and (c) the Participant is one of a select group of management or highly compensated employees of the Company.

3.             Salary Continuation Benefits

3.1           Amount and Payment of Benefits.  Except as provided in section 3.2, the Company shall pay salary continuation benefits as provided in this Plan.  The salary continuation benefits under this Plan shall consist of annual payments based on Participant’s tenure (equal to one year of payments for each full and partial year of employment, not to exceed twenty years) of the Participant’s Annual Benefit Amount, payable on the Benefit Commencement Date and each year thereafter on the anniversary of the Benefit Commencement Date until the annual payment has been made; provided, however, if Participant’s employment terminates subsequent to a Change of Control of the Company, as determined pursuant to Participant’s then current

2

Employment Agreement with the Company, then the Annual Benefit Amount shall be 150% of the Benefit Amount listed at “60 or older” in Section 1.1. above.  Further, if both the Participant and the Beneficiary named pursuant to Section 4.1 below are deceased, the Company shall make a lump sum payment in cash within ninety (90) days of the death of the Participant or the Beneficiary, whichever is later, to the estate of such decedent, such payment shall equal fifty percent (50%) of the present value as calculated below in this Section, with such payment not exceeding $500,000.00. The Company or Participant may, at any time after the Participant’s employment has been terminated or at any time after the Benefit Commencement Date (regardless of whether the Employee’s employment has been terminated), prepay the benefits under this Plan by paying a lump sum, in cash, equal to the present value of all remaining unpaid payments, calculated using a discount rate of 8% per annum during 2004, 6% during 2005, 5.5% during 2006, and 5% thereafter.  Upon such prepayment, the Company shall have no further obligations under this Plan.

3.2           Forfeiture of Benefits on Termination for Cause.  If the Participant’s employment with the Company is terminated for cause, either before or after the Benefit Commencement Date, then any benefits not actually paid prior to the time of termination shall be forfeited, and no further salary continuation benefits shall be payable under this Plan.  For this purpose, “cause” means (a) commission of a felony, or (b) fraud or misappropriation or intentional material damage to the property or business of the Company, provided that such “cause” shall have been found by a majority vote of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company (other than the Participant, if he is a member of the Board of Directors).

3.3           Recipient.  The salary continuation benefits under his Plan shall be paid as follows:

a.             All payments that become payable during the Participant’s lifetime shall be paid to the Participant.

b.             Any payments that become payable following the Participant’s death shall be paid to the Participant’s Beneficiary.

4.             Beneficiary.

4.1           Designation.  The Participant may from time to time designate a Beneficiary to receive amounts that may become payable under this plan following the Participant’s death.  The Participant may at any time revoke or change any previous beneficiary designation.  Any beneficiary designation or any revocation or change of a previous beneficiary designation shall be in writing, shall be signed by the Participant, shall be effective only upon its actual receipt by the Company, and shall be in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto.

4.2           No Designated beneficiary.  If there is no beneficiary designation in effect for the Participant at the time when any amounts become payable to the participant’s Beneficiary, or if the Beneficiary designated by the Participant is not then living or in existence, then the Participant’s Beneficiary shall be, and the payment(s) shall be made to:

a.             The Participant’s surviving Spouse, if any;

b.             The Participant has no surviving Spouse, then to the Participant’s personal representative, to be distributed as a part of the Participant’s estate.

4.3           Withholding Benefits.  If the Company is in doubt as to the proper Beneficiary to receive any payment under this plan, the Company may withhold payment until the matter is finally adjudicated.

4.4           Incompetent Payee.  If the Participant or any Beneficiary is a minor or otherwise legally incompetent, the Company may make payment to the Participant’s or Beneficiary’s conservator or legal guardian or, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Company, to the

4

Participant’s or Beneficiary’s parent or another relative of the Beneficiary.  The receipt of a conservator, guardian, parent or other relative to whom a payment is made under this section shall be a complete discharge of the Company, and the Company shall have obligation to see to the application of any payment so made.

4.5           Discharge of Company.  Any payment made by the Company in good faith and in accordance with the provisions of this Plan shall fully discharge the Company from all further obligations with respect to that payment.

5.             Relationship to Other Agreements.  This Plan does not constitute a contract of employment between the Company and the Participant.  No provision of this Plan shall restrict the right of the Company to discharge or terminate the Employment of the Participant, nor the right of the Participant to terminate the Participant’s employment with the Company.

6.             Unfunded Plan.

5

performance of the obligations of the Company under this plan, but shall be and remain general, unpledged and unrestricted assets of the Company.  The Participant hereby acknowledges that the Participant’s participation in the acquisition of any general asset for the Company shall not constitute a representation to the Participant, the Participant’s Beneficiary, or any other person claiming through the Participant, that any of them has any special or beneficial interest in any general asset of the Company.

7.             Inalienability.  Except as specifically provided in this Plan with respect to the Participant’s right to designate a Beneficiary, the Participant’s right to benefits hereunder is personal to the Participant, and neither the Participant nor the Participant’s Beneficiary shall have any right to anticipate, sell, assign, mortgage, pledge, or otherwise dispose of or encumber any of the benefits provided for under this Plan, nor shall such benefits be liable for the debts or obligations of the Participant or the Participant’s Beneficiary, or be subject to attachment, garnishment, execution, creditors bill, or other legal or equitable process.
