For purposes of this Section, Chief Executive Officer’s approval shall be deemed to have been granted as to service with any such business company or organization that Executive was serving as of the date of this Agreement and disclosed to the Chief Executive Officer.

     (2) During the final twenty-four (24) months of the Employment Period, the Executive shall devote an amount of time as agreed to between the Executive and the Chief Executive Officer with respect to performing duties hereunder, which amount of time is expected to be significantly less than the amount of time specified in Section 2(c)(1) above.

     3.2. Bonus and Incentive Compensation. Executive will be entitled to participate in any cash or equity-based incentive compensation or bonus plans or programs as the Employer may make available to senior executive officers from time to time.

ARTICLE 4 PAYMENTS TO EXECUTIVE UPON AN EVENT OF TERMINATION.

     4.1. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination (as herein defined), the provisions of this section shall apply. As used in this Agreement, an “Event of Termination’’ shall mean and include any one or more of the following:

          (i) the involuntary termination by the Company or the Bank of Executive’s employment hereunder for any reason other than a Termination for Cause, as defined in Section 7 hereof, or a termination for Disability as set forth in Section 6 hereof; and

          (ii) Executive’s resignation from the Employer’s employ upon any of the following events (which shall be treated as termination of employment for “Good Reason”), unless consented to by Executive:

               (A) a relocation of Executive’s principal place of employment to a location that is more than thirty-five (35) miles from the location of the Employer’s principal executive offices as of the date of this Agreement;

               (B) a material reduction in the benefits and perquisites, including Base Salary, to Executive from those being provided in the Agreement as of the Effective Date (except for any reduction that is part of a reduction in pay or benefits that is generally applicable to officers or employees);

               (C) a liquidation or dissolution of the Bank or the Company other than liquidations or dissolutions that are caused by reorganizations that do not affect the status of the Executive; or

               (D) a material breach of this Agreement by the Employer.

Upon the occurrence of any event described in clause (ii) above, Executive shall have the right to elect to terminate his employment under this Agreement by resignation within 90 days after the event giving rise to said right to elect, which

termination by Executive shall be an Event of Termination. The Employer shall have 30 days to remedy any event set forth in clauses (ii)(A) through (D) above; provided, however, that the Employer shall be entitled to waive such period and make an immediate payment hereunder. If the Employer remedies the event within such 30-day cure period, then no Good Reason shall be deemed to exist with respect to such event. If the Employer does not remedy the event within such 30-day cure period, then the Executive may deliver a Notice of Termination, as defined in Section 9(c) hereof, for Good Reason at any time within 60 days following the expiration of such cure period.

          (iii) The involuntary termination of Executive’s employment by the Employer without cause or the voluntary resignation by Executive from the Employer’s employ for Good Reason within one (1) year following a Change in Control (as defined in Section 5 below).

     4.2. Within 30 days following the occurrence of an Event of Termination, the Employer shall pay Executive, or, in the event of his subsequent death, his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be, as severance pay or liquidated damages, or both, a lump sum cash amount equal to the Base Salary that would have been paid during the remaining term of this Agreement (based on the Base Salary in effect upon the Event of Termination); provided, however, that such payment is conditioned upon the Executive signing a general release acceptable to the Employer, in substantially the form set forth as Appendix A to this Agreement. Such payment shall not be reduced in the event Executive obtains other employment following termination of employment. Upon an Event of Termination, the Executive shall have such rights as specified in any other employee benefit plans or programs maintained by the Employer, as may be in effect from time to time.

     4.3. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination, the Employer will continue to provide, under the same cost-sharing arrangement as is in effect upon the Event of Termination, life insurance and non-taxable medical and health insurance coverage substantially comparable, as reasonably or customarily available, to the coverage maintained by the Employer for Executive prior to his termination, except to the extent such coverage may be changed in its application to all Employer employees. Such coverage shall continue until December 31, 2012.

     4.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Executive is a Specified Employee (as defined herein), solely to the extent necessary to avoid penalties under Code Section 409A, payment to the Executive’s benefit pursuant to Sections 4(b) and 4(c), if applicable, shall be made to the Executive on the first day of the seventh month following the Executive’s Event of Termination; provided, however, that the six-month delay for such payment shall not apply in the event that the separation pay is due to upon an involuntary Separation from Service or a Good Reason Separation from Service and the amount of the separation pay does not exceed two times the lesser of (i) the Executive’s annualized compensation based upon his annual rate of pay for the taxable year preceding the year in which the Separation from Service occurs; or (ii) the limit set forth in Section 401(a)(17) of the Internal Revenue Code for the year in which the Separation from Service occurs (i.e. for 2009, $245,000), as provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) (which separation pay, if in excess of the limit, shall be made as provided herein up to the amount of the limit). “Specified Employee” shall be interpreted to comply with Code Section 409A and shall mean a key employee within the meaning of Code Section 416(i) (without regard to paragraph 5 thereof), but an individual shall be a “Specified Employee” only if the Company or the Bank or any affiliate is a publicly traded company.

     4.5. For purposes of this Agreement, Event of Termination shall be construed to require a “Separation from Service” as defined in Code Section 409A and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, such that the Employer and Executive reasonably anticipate that the level of bona fide services Executive would perform after termination would permanently decrease to a level that is less than 50% of the average level of bona fide services performed (whether as an employee or an independent contractor) over the immediately preceding 36-month period.

ARTICLE 5 CHANGE IN CONTROL.

     5.1. For these purposes, a Change in Control of the Company or the Bank shall mean a change in control of a nature that:

          (i) would be required to be reported in response to Item 5.01 of the current report on Form 8-K, as in effect on the date hereof, pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”); or

          (ii) results in a Change in Control of the Bank or the Company within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company Act, as amended, and applicable rules and regulations promulgated thereunder by the Federal Reserve Board (collectively, the “BHCA”), or under the Bank in Control Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder by the Federal Reserve Board, as in effect at the time of the Change in Control; or

          (iii) without limitation such a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred at such time as (a) any “person” (as the term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 25% or more of the combined voting power of Company’s outstanding securities, except for any securities purchased by the Bank’s employee stock ownership plan or trust; or (b) individuals who constitute the Board on the date hereof (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose election was approved by a vote of at least three-quarters of the directors comprising the Incumbent Board, or whose nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders was approved by the same Nominating Committee serving under an Incumbent Board, shall be, for purposes of this clause (b), considered as though he were a member of the Incumbent Board; or (c) a plan of reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Bank or the Company or similar transaction in which the Bank or Company is not the surviving institution occurs or is implemented; or (d) a proxy statement soliciting proxies from stockholders of the Company is distributed, by someone other than the current management of the Company, seeking stockholder approval of a plan of reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Company or similar transaction with one or more corporations as a result of which the outstanding shares of the class of securities then subject to the plan are exchanged for or converted into cash or property or securities not issued by the Company; or (e) a tender offer is made for 25% or more of the voting securities of the Company and the shareholders owning beneficially or of record 25% or more of the outstanding securities of the Company have tendered or offered to sell their shares pursuant to such tender offer and such tendered shares have been accepted by the tender offeror.

     5.2. Notwithstanding the preceding paragraphs of this Section, in the event that the aggregate payments or benefits to be made or afforded to Executive in the event of a Change in Control would be deemed to include an “excess parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code or any successor thereto, then the cash severance payable under Section 4 shall be reduced by the minimum amount necessary to result in no portion of the payments and benefits payable by the Employer under Section 4 being non-deductible pursuant to Code Section 280G and subject to an excise tax imposed under Code Section 4999.

ARTICLE 6 TERMINATION FOR DISABILITY OR DEATH.

     6.1. Termination of Executive’s employment based on “Disability” shall be construed to comply with Code section 409A and shall be deemed to have occurred if (i) the Executive is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death, or last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months; (ii) by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death, or last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, the Executive is receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than three months under an accident and health plan covering employees of the Employer; or (iii) the Executive is determined to be totally disabled by the Social Security Administration. The provisions of paragraph 6(b) and (c) shall apply upon the termination of the Executive’s employment for Disability.

     6.2. Executive shall participate in the short and long term disability plans and benefits offered by the Bank to senior executives, including, but not limited to, (i) long term disability income replacement benefits equal to no less than 60% of Executive’s base salary and bonus, based on Executive being unable to perform the required functions of Executive’s own occupation and (ii) supplemental retirement benefits under a long-term disability program, such that, in the event the Executive receives long term disability benefits, an additional amount will be credited for the benefit of the Executive and will be paid at the time and in the form specified in the plan documents. If Executive pays the premiums for such long-term disability coverage on an after-tax basis, the Bank shall increase Executive’s base salary by the grossed up amount necessary in order to accommodate Executive’s payment of such premiums, such that Executive’s net base salary is not decreased as a result of Executive’s payment of such premiums on an after-tax basis.

     6.3. The Employer will cause to be continued, under the same cost-sharing arrangement as is in effect for active employees, life insurance and non-taxable medical and health insurance coverage substantially comparable, as reasonable or customarily available, to the coverage maintained by the Employer for Executive prior to his termination for Disability, except to the extent such coverage may be changed in its application to all Employer employees or not available on an individual basis to an employee terminated for Disability. This coverage shall cease upon the earlier of (i) Executive’s full-time employment by another employer; (ii) Executive attaining the age of 65; (iii) Executive’s death; or (iv) thirty-six months after the Effective Date. Upon a termination of Executive’s employment due to Disability, the Executive shall have such rights as specified in any other employee benefit plans or programs maintained by the Employer, as may be in effect from time to time.

     (d) In the event of Executive’s death during the term of the Agreement, his estate, legal representatives or named beneficiaries (as directed by executive in writing) shall be paid a lump sum amount equal to two (2) times Executive’s Base Salary in effect at the time of Executive’s death, which will be paid within 30 days of the Executive’s

death. Any payment due Executive by reason of any life insurance benefit provided to him under a plan maintained by the Employer shall offset this obligation, but such payments are in addition to any other benefits that the Executive’s beneficiaries may be entitled to receive under any employee benefit plan maintained by the Employer for the benefit of the Executive, including, but not limited to, the Employer’s tax-qualified retirement plans, supplemental executive retirement plans (including any life insurance agreements related to the supplemental executive retirement plans).

ARTICLE 7 TERMINATION FOR CAUSE.

     (a) The Employer may terminate the Executive’s employment at any time, but any termination other than Termination for Cause, as defined herein, shall not prejudice the Executive’s right to compensation or other benefits under the Agreement. The Executive shall have no right to receive compensation or other benefits for any period after Termination for “Cause.” Termination for “Cause” shall include termination because of the Executive’s personal dishonesty, incompetence, willful misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit, material breach of the Code of Ethics of either the Bank or the Company, material violation of the Sarbanes-Oxley requirements for officers of public companies that in the reasonable opinion of the Chief Executive Officer will likely cause substantial financial harm or substantial injury to the reputation of the Company or the Bank, willfully engaging in actions that in the reasonable opinion of the Chief Executive Officer will likely cause substantial financial harm or substantial injury to the business reputation of the Company or the Bank, failure to perform stated duties after receiving written notice of Executive’s failure to perform assigned duties, willful violation of any law, rule or regulation (other than routine traffic violations or similar offenses) or final cease-and-desist order, or material breach of any provision of the Agreement.

     (b) For purposes of this Section, no act or failure to act, on the part of the Executive, shall be considered “willful” unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in bad faith or without reasonable belief that the Executive’s action or omission was in the best interests of the Employer. Any act, or failure to act, based upon the direction of the Chief Executive Officer or based upon the advice of counsel for the Employer shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in good faith and in the best interests of the Employer.

ARTICLE 8 NOTICE.

     8.1. Any purported termination by the Employer for Cause shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to Executive. If, within 30 days after any Notice of Termination for Cause is given, Executive notifies the Employer that a dispute exists concerning the termination, the parties shall promptly proceed to arbitration. Notwithstanding the pendency of any such dispute, the Employer shall discontinue paying Executive’s compensation until the dispute is finally resolved in accordance with this Agreement. If it is determined that Executive is entitled to compensation and benefits under Section 4 of this Agreement, the payment of such compensation and benefits by the Employer shall commence immediately following the date of resolution by arbitration, with the cash amount that would have been paid pending arbitration and interest thereon (at the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal from time to time) paid to Executive as a cash lump sum within 30 days after the date the arbitration results are delivered to the Employer.

     8.2. Any other purported termination by the Employer or by Executive shall be communicated by a Notice of Termination to the other party. If, within 30 days after any Notice of Termination is given, the party receiving such Notice of Termination notifies the other party that a dispute exists concerning the termination, the parties shall promptly proceed to arbitration as provided in Section 18 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the pendency of any such dispute, the Employer shall continue to pay Executive his Base Salary, and other compensation and benefits (including, without limitation, health insurance coverage) in effect when the notice giving rise to the dispute was given (except as to termination of Executive for Cause); provided, however, that such payments and benefits shall not continue beyond the date that is 36 months from the date the Notice of Termination is given. In the event the voluntary termination by Executive of his employment for Good Reason is disputed by the Employer, and if it is determined in arbitration that Executive is not entitled to termination benefits pursuant to this Agreement, he shall return all cash payments made to him pending resolution by arbitration, with interest thereon at the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal from time to time if it is determined in arbitration that Executive’s voluntary termination of employment for Good Reason was not taken in good faith and not in the reasonable belief that grounds existed for his voluntary termination for Good Reason. If it is determined that the Executive is entitled to receive severance benefits under this Agreement, then any continuation of Base Salary and other compensation and benefits made to the Executive under this Section shall offset the amount of any severance benefits that are due to the Executive under this Agreement.

     8.3. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” shall mean a written notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated and “Date of Termination” shall mean the date of the Notice of Termination.

ARTICLE 9 POST-TERMINATION OBLIGATIONS AND CONFIDENTIALITY.

     (a) The Executive hereby covenants and agrees that, for a period of two years following his termination of employment with the Company or the Bank, he shall not, without the written consent of the Employer, either directly or indirectly engage in any of the actions described below; provided, however, that the Executive is not required to honor the terms of this Section 9 in the event that the Executive terminates employment with the Company or the Bank and is not receiving any severance payments pursuant to this Agreement:

          (i) solicit, offer employment to, or take any other action intended (or that a reasonable person acting in like circumstances would expect) to have the effect of causing any officer or employee of the Company or the Bank or any of their affiliates to terminate his or her employment and accept employment or become affiliated with, or provide services for compensation in any capacity whatsoever to, any business whatsoever that competes with the business of the Company or the Bank or any of their affiliates or has headquarters or offices within thirty-five (35) miles of the locations in which the Company or the Bank or their affiliates has business operations or has filed an application for regulatory approval to establish an office;

          (ii) become an officer, employee, consultant, director, independent contractor, agent, sole proprietor, joint venturer, greater than 5% equity-owner or stockholder, partner or trustee of any savings bank, savings and loan association, savings and loan holding company, credit union, bank or bank holding company, insurance company or agency, any mortgage or loan broker or any other entity competing with the Company or the Bank or their affiliates in the same geographic locations where the Company or the Bank or their affiliates has material business interests; provided, however, that this restriction shall not apply if the Executive’s employment is terminated following a Change in Control or due to Termination for Cause; or

          (iii) solicit, provide any information, advice or recommendation or take any other action intended (or that a reasonable person acting in like circumstances would expect) to have the effect of causing any customer of the Company or the Bank or their affiliates to terminate an existing business or commercial relationship with the Company or the Bank or their affiliates.

     (b) Executive shall, upon reasonable notice, furnish such information and assistance to the Employer and/or its affiliates, as may reasonably be required by the Employer and/or its affiliates, in connection with any litigation in which it or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates is, or may become, a party; provided, however, that Executive shall not be required to provide information or assistance with respect to any litigation between the Executive and the Employer, or any of its affiliates. Executive shall be reimbursed by the Employer for out-of-pocket expenses associated with such assistance, provided that Executive submits appropriate receipts to the Employer for such expenses. Such reimbursements shall be paid in a cash lump sum no later than March 15 of the year after the year in which the expenses were incurred.

     (c) Executive agrees that he shall not, directly or indirectly, use, make available, sell, disclose or otherwise communicate to any person, other than in the course of the Executive’s assigned duties and for the benefit of the Company or the Bank, either during the period of the Executive’s employment or at any other time thereafter, any nonpublic, proprietary or confidential information, knowledge or data relating or belonging to the Company or the Bank, any of their respective subsidiaries, affiliated companies or businesses, which shall have been obtained by the Executive during the Executive’s employment with the Company or the Bank. The foregoing shall not apply to information that (i) was known to the public prior to its disclosure to the Executive; (ii) becomes known to the public subsequent to disclosure to the Executive through no wrongful act of the Executive of any representative of the Executive; or (iii) the Executive is required to disclose by applicable law, regulation or legal process (provided that the Executive provides the Company and the Bank, as the case may be, with prior notice of the contemplated disclosure and reasonably cooperates with the Company or Bank, as the case may be, at its expense in seeking a protective order or other appropriate protection of such information). Notwithstanding clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence, the Executive’s obligation to maintain such disclosed information in confidence shall not terminate where only portions of the information are in the public domain.

     (d) All payments and benefits to the Executive under this Agreement shall be subject to the Executive’s compliance with this Section. The parties hereto, recognizing that irreparable injury will result to the Employer, its business and property in the event of the Executive’s breach of this Section, agree that, in the event of any such breach by the Executive, the Employer will be entitled, in addition to any other remedies and damages available, to an injunction to restrain the violation hereof by the Executive and all persons acting for or with the Executive. The Executive represents and admits that the Executive’s experience and capabilities are such that the Executive can obtain employment in a business engaged in other lines and/or of a different nature than the Employer, and that the enforcement of a remedy by way of injunction will not prevent the Executive from earning a livelihood. Nothing herein will be

construed as prohibiting the Employer from pursuing any other remedies for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from the Executive.

ARTICLE 10 SOURCE OF PAYMENTS.

     All payments provided in this Agreement shall be timely paid in cash or check from the general funds of the Bank. The Company, however, guarantees payment and provision of all amounts and benefits due hereunder to Executive, and if such amounts and benefits due from the Bank are not timely paid or provided by the Bank, such amounts and benefits shall be paid or provided by the Company.

ARTICLE 11 EFFECT ON PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND EXISTING BENEFITS PLANS.

     This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the parties hereto and supersedes any prior employment agreement between the Employer or any predecessor of the Employer and Executive, except that this Agreement shall not affect or operate to reduce any benefit or compensation inuring to Executive of a kind elsewhere provided. No provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted to mean that Executive is subject to receiving fewer benefits than those available to him without reference to this Agreement.

ARTICLE 12 NO ATTACHMENT; BINDING ON SUCCESSORS.

     12.1. Except as required by law, no right to receive payments under this Agreement shall be subject to anticipation, commutation, alienation, sale, assignment, encumbrance, charge, pledge, or hypothecation, or to execution, attachment, levy, or similar process or assignment by operation of law, and any attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to effect any such action shall be null, void, and of no effect.

     12.2. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, Executive and the Employer and their respective successors and assigns.

ARTICLE 13 MODIFICATION AND WAIVER.

     13.1. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto.

     13.2. No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall there be any estoppel against the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement, except by written instrument of the party charged with such waiver or estoppel. No such written waiver shall be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated therein, and each such waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future as to any act other than that specifically waived.

ARTICLE 14 REQUIRED PROVISIONS.

     14.1. Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, any payments to Executive by the Employer, whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, are subject to and conditioned upon their compliance with Section 18(k) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. Section 1828(k), and the regulations promulgated thereunder in 12 C.F.R. Part 359.

     14.2. The Employer may terminate the Executive’s employment at any time and for any reason, but any termination by the Company, other than Termination for Cause, shall not prejudice Executive’s right to compensation or other benefits under this Agreement.

ARTICLE 15 SEVERABILITY.

     If, for any reason, any provision of this Agreement, or any part of any provision, is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement or any part of such provision not held so invalid, and each such other provision and part thereof shall to the full extent consistent with law continue in full force and effect.

ARTICLE 16 HEADINGS FOR REFERENCE ONLY.

     The headings of sections and paragraphs herein are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not control the meaning or interpretation of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 17 GOVERNING LAW.

     This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York but only to the extent not superseded by federal law.

ARTICLE 18 ARBITRATION.

     (a) Any disagreement, dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the interpretation or validity hereof shall be settled exclusively and finally by arbitration. It is specifically understood and agreed that any disagreement, dispute or controversy which cannot be resolved between the parties, including without limitation any matter relating to the interpretation of this Agreement, may be submitted to arbitration irrespective of the magnitude thereof, the amount in controversy or whether such disagreement, dispute or controversy would otherwise be considered justifiable or ripe for resolution by a court or arbitral tribunal.

     (c) At any oral hearing of evidence in connection with the arbitration, each party thereto or its legal counsel shall have the right to examine its witnesses and to cross-examine the witnesses of any opposing party. No evidence of any witness shall be presented unless the opposing party or parties shall have the opportunity to cross-examine such witness, except as the parties to the dispute otherwise agree in writing or except under extraordinary circumstances where the interests of justice require a different procedure.

     (d) A decision or award of the arbitral tribunal shall be final and binding upon the parties to the arbitration proceeding. The parties hereto hereby waive to the extent permitted by law any rights to appeal or to seek review of such award by any court or tribunal. The parties hereto agree that the arbitral award may be enforced, against the parties to the arbitration proceeding or their assets wherever they may be found and that a judgment upon the arbitral award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
