The actual amount of the Senior Management Incentive Compensation Plan award shall be calculated according to a schedule comparing earnings per share (EPS) and return on average assets (ROAA) for the Award Period to a pre-determined performance standard.  When performance meets the established performance standards, the award fund will be adjusted according to the performance table.

In the event that the ROAA or EPS targeted performance is not attained but the target net income is attained, the amount of the award under the Senior Management Incentive Plan shall be paid at the base level of target performance payment.

There shall be a minimum acceptable performance beneath which no incentive awards are paid and a maximum above which there is no additional award paid to avoid excessive payout in the event of windfall profits.  Said minimum and maximum shall be reviewed annually and amended when necessary at any time in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee; provided, however, that the minimum may not be reduced and the maximum may not be increased after the 90^th day of the year.
