C. The Company and the Executive have previously entered into a Severance Agreement, dated January 1, 2005 ("2005 Severance Agreement"), which provides for the payment of termination benefits upon certain terminations of employment in the absence of a Change of Control.

D. The Company and the Executive have previously entered into a Change of Control Agreement, dated January 1, 2005 ("2005 Change of Control Agreement"), which provides for the payment of termination benefits upon certain terminations of employment following a Change of Control.

E. The Company and the Executive wish to enter into this Agreement, effective January 1, 2008, and wish for this Agreement to supersede the 2005 Severance Agreement and 2005 Change of Control Agreement in their entirety.

The Employing Companies shall make the payment required by this Subsection as soon as administratively practicable after the Executive presents evidence of the taxes for which reimbursement is due hereunder and un der no circumstances after the end of the year in which such taxes are paid.

The Employing Companies shall make the payment required by the preceding sentence as soon as administratively practicable after the Executive presents evidence of the additional taxes for which reimbursement is due hereunder and under no circumstances after the end of the year in which such taxes are paid.
8. Termination of Employment by the Company for Cause, Unacceptable Performance, Disability, or Death.
1. The Company may cause a Termination of the Executive's Employment for Unacceptable Performance or Disability at any time before a Change in Control. To do so, the Board must provide the Executive with a notice of termination specifying the Termination Date and either the specific act(s) or failure(s) constituting Unacceptable Performance or the circumstances constituting Disability. If the Board's notice identifies an act or failure constituting Unacceptable Performance that is subject to correction under the definition of Unacceptable Performance and related definitions in this Agreement, the notice shall also specify the period during which the act or failure must be corrected. If the Board determines that the Executive has not corrected the act or failure in all material respects within the required correction period, the Board must then provide a second notice of termination stating the reasons for the termination and the Termination Date, and the Executive's Employment shall Terminate on such date.
2. The Company may cause a Termination of the Executive's Employment for Cause or Disability at any time concurrent with or after a Change in Control. To do so, the Board must provide the Executive with a notice of termination specifying the Termination Date and either the specific act(s) or failure(s) constituting Cause or the circumstances constituting Disability. If the Board's notice identifies an act or failure constituting Cause, it shall be accompanied by a resolution duly adopted by not less than three-quarters (3/4) of the entire membership of the Board (after reasonable notice to the Executive and an opportunity for the Executive, together with her counsel, to be heard by the Board), finding, in the reasonable opinion of the Board, that one or more of the events of Cause listed above has occurred and specifying the details thereof. If the act or failure constituting Cause is subject to correction under the definition of Cause and related definitions in this Agreement, the notice shall also spec ify the period during which the act or failure must be corrected. If the Board determines that the Executive has not corrected the act or failure in all material respects within the required correction period, the Board must then provide a second notice of termination stating the reasons for the termination and the Termination Date, and the Executive's Employment shall Terminate on such date.
3. If the Executive dies before Termination of her Employment, her employment shall terminate automatically on the date of her death.
4. In the case of a Termination of Employment pursuant to this Section, the Executive shall not be entitled to benefits or payments pursuant to Section 5 or 6.
9. Resignation by Executive for Good Reason. If an event of Good Reason occurs during the Term, the Executive may, at any time within the ninety (90) day period following such event, provide the Company with a notice of termination specifying the event of Good Reason and notifying the Company of her intention to Terminate her Employment upon the Employing Companies' failure to correct the event of Good Reason within thirty (30) days following receipt of the Executive's notice of termination. If the Employing Companies fail to correct the event of Good Reason and provide the Executive with notice of such correction within such thirty (30) day period, the Executive's Employment shall Terminate as of the end of such period, and the Executive shall be entitled to benefits as provided in Section 4 and Section 5 or 6, as applicable.
10. Withholding and Taxes. The Employing Companies may withhold from any payment made hereunder (i) any taxes that the Employing Companies reasonably determine are required to be withheld under federal, state, or local tax laws or regulations, and (ii) any other amounts that the Employing Companies are authorized to withhold. Except for employment taxes that are the obligation of the Employing Companies, the Executive shall pay all federal, state, local, and other taxes (including, without limitation, interest, fines, and penalties) imposed on her under applicable law by virtue of or relating to the payments and/or benefits contemplated by this Agreement, subject to any reimbursement provisions of this Agreement.
11. Use and Disclosure of Confidential Information.
1. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that (i) by virtue of her employment, she will be given access to, and will help analyze, formulate or otherwise use, Confidential Information, (ii) the Employer has devoted (and will devote) substantial time, money, and effort to develop Confidential Information and maintain the proprietary and confidential nature thereof, and (iii) Confidential Information is proprietary and confidential and, if any Confidential Information were disclosed or became known by persons engaging in a business in any way competitive with the Company's Business, such disclosure would result in hardship, loss, irreparable injury, and damage to the Employer, the measurement of which would be difficult, if not impossible, to determine. Accordingly, the Executive agrees that (i) the preservation and protection of Confidential Information is an essential part of her duties of employment and that, as a result of her employment with the Employing Companies, she has a duty of fidelity, loyal ty, and trust to the Employing Companies in safeguarding Confidential Information. The Executive further agrees that she will use her best efforts, exercise utmost diligence, and take all steps necessary to protect and safeguard Confidential Information, whether such information derives from the Executive, other employees of the Employer, Customers, Prospective Customers, or vendors or suppliers of the Employer, and that she will not, directly or indirectly, use, disclose, distribute, or disseminate to any other person or entity or otherwise employ Confidential Information, either for her own benefit or for the benefit of another, except as required in the ordinary course of her employment by the Employing Companies. The Executive shall follow all Company policies and procedures to protect all Confidential Information and shall take any additional precautions necessary under the circumstances to preserve and protect against the prohibited use or disclosure of any Confidential Information.
2. The confidentiality obligations contained in this Agreement shall continue as long as Confidential Information remains confidential (except that the obligations shall continue, if Confidential Information loses its confidential nature through improper use or disclosure, including but not limited to any breach of this Agreement) and shall survive the termination of this Agreement and/or termination of the Executive's employment with the Employing Companies.
3. From time to time, the Employer may, for its own benefit, choose to place certain Confidential Information in the public domain. The fact that Confidential Information may be made available to the public in a limited form and under limited circumstances does not change the confidential and proprietary nature of such information, and does not release the Executive from her obligations with respect to such Confidential Information.
12. Ownership of Documents and Return of Materials At Termination of Employment.
1. Any and all documents, records, and copies thereof, including but not limited to hard copies or copies stored digitally or electronically, pertaining to or including Confidential Information (collectively, "Company Documents") that are made or received by the Executive during her employment shall be deemed to be property of the Employer. The Executive shall use Company Documents and information contained therein only in the course of her employment for the Employing Companies and for no other purpose. The Executive shall not use or disclose any Company Documents to anyone except as authorized in the course of her employment and in furtherance of the Company's Business.
2. Upon Termination of Employment for any reason, the Executive shall immediately deliver to Employing Companies (with or without request) all Company Documents and all other Employer property in the Executive's possession or under her custody or control.
13. Non-Solicitation of Customers and Employees. The Executive agrees that during the Term and for a period of two (2) years following Termination of the Executive's Employment, the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, individually or jointly, (i) solicit in any manner, seek to obtain or service, or accept the business of any Customer for any product or service of the type offered by the Employer or competitive with the Company's Business, (ii) solicit in any manner, seek to obtain or service, or accept the business of any Prospective Customer for any product or service of the type offered by the Employer or otherwise competitive with the Company's Business, (iii) request or advise any Customer, Prospective Customer, or supplier of the Employer to terminate, reduce, limit, or change its business or relationship with the Employer, or (iv) induce, request, or attempt to influence any employee of the Employer to terminate his or her employment with the Employer.
14. Covenant Not to Compete. The Executive hereby understands and acknowledges that, by virtue of her position with the Employing Companies, she has obtained advantageous familiarity and personal contacts with Customers and Prospective Customers, wherever located, and the business, operations, and affairs of the Employing Companies. Accordingly, during the term of this Agreement and for a period of two (2) years following the Termination of her Employment, the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly:
1. as owner, officer, director, stockholder, investor, proprietor, organizer, employee, agent, representative, consultant, independent contractor, or otherwise, engage in the same trade or business as the Company's Business, in the same or similar capacity as the Executive worked for the Employing Companies, or in such capacity as would cause the actual or threatened use of the Employer's trade secrets and/or Confidential Information; provided, however, that this Subsection shall not restrict the Executive from acquiring, as a passive investment, less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding securities of any class of an entity that are listed on a national securities exchange or actively traded in the over-the-counter market. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that, given the level of trust and responsibility given to her while in the Employing Companies' employ, and the level and depth of trade secrets and Confidential Information entrusted to her, any immediately subsequent (i.e. within two (2) year s) employment with a competitor to the Company's Business would result in the inevitable use or disclosure of the Employer's trade secrets and Confidential Information and, therefore, this two (2) year restriction is reasonable and necessary to protect against such inevitable disclosure; or
2. offer to provide employment or work of any kind (whether such employment is with the Executive or any other business or enterprise), either on a full-time or part-time or consulting basis, to any person who then currently is, or who within two years preceding such offer or provision of employment has been, an employee of the Employer.

The restrictions on the activities of the Executive contained in this Section shall be limited to the following geographical areas:

3. within a fifteen (15) mile radius of each banking center location operated by the Employer on the Executive's Termination Date;
4. within each county in which a banking center location is operated by the Employer on the Executive's Termination Date;
5. within a fifty (50) mile radius of Company's corporate headquarters address in Evansville, Indiana;
6. within each city, town, and county in which the Employer began expansion or acquisition planning or efforts during the Executive's employment with the Employing Companies, and about which Executive gained knowledge of Confidential Information or bore responsibility for expanding the Company's Business.
15. Remedies. The Executive agrees that the Company will suffer irreparable damage and injury and will not have an adequate remedy at law if the Executive breaches any provision of the Restrictive Covenants. Accordingly, if the Executive breaches or threatens or attempts to breach the Restrictive Covenants, in addition to all other available remedies, the Company shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief, and no or minimal bond or other security shall be required in connection therewith. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that in the event of termination of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever, the Executive can obtain employment not competitive with the Company's Business (or, if competitive, outside of the geographic and customer-specific scope described herein) and that the issuance of an injunction to enforce the provisions of the Restrictive Covenants shall not prevent the Executive from earning a livelihood. The Restrictive Covenants are essential terms and conditions to the Company entering into this Agreement, and they shall be construed as independent of any other provision in this Agreement or of any other agreement between the Executive and the Company. The existence of any claim or cause of action that the Executive has against the Company, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of the Restrictive Covenants.
16. Periods of Noncompliance and Reasonableness of Periods. The Restrictive Covenants described in Sections 13 and 14 shall be deemed not to run during all periods of noncompliance, the intention of the parties being to have such restrictions and covenants apply for the full periods specified in Sections 13 and 14 following Termination of the Executive's Employment. The Company and the Executive acknowledge and agree that the restrictions and covenants contained in Sections 13 and 14 are reasonable in view of the nature of the Company's Business and the Executive's advantageous knowledge of and familiarity with the Company's Business, operations, affairs, and Customers. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if the scope of any restriction or covenant contained in Section 13 or 14 is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be too broad to permit enforcement of such restriction or covenant to its full extent, then such restriction or covenant shall be enforced to the maximu m extent permitted by law. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that a court of competent jurisdiction shall invoke and exercise the blue pencil doctrine to the fullest extent permitted by law to enforce this Agreement.
17. Release. For and in consideration of the foregoing covenants and promises made by the Company, and the performance of such covenants and promises, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Executive agrees to release the Employer and all other persons named in the Release from any and all causes of causes of action that the Executive has or may have against the Employer or any such person before the effective date of the Release, other than a cause based on a breach of Section 4 hereof. The Release shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I. The Company shall provide the Release to the Executive upon her Termination of Employment or within ten (10) days thereafter. THE EXECUTIVE'S RIGHT TO BENEFITS HEREUNDER SHALL BE CONTINGENT ON HER SIGNING AND FILING THE RELEASE AS PROVIDED IN THE RELEASE WITHIN TWENTY-ONE (21) DAYS AFTER RECEIVING IT.
18. Reimbursement of Certain Costs.
1. If the Company brings a cause of action to enforce the Restrictive Covenants or to recover damages caused by the Executive's breach of the Restrictive Covenants, the substantially prevailing party in such action shall be entitled to reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, expert witness fees, and disbursements) in connection with such action.
2. If a dispute arises regarding the Executive's rights hereunder, and the Executive obtains a final judgment in her favor from a court of competent jurisdiction with respect to such a dispute, all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, expert witness fees, and disbursements) incurred by the Executive in connection with such dispute or in otherwise pursuing a claim based on a breach of this Agreement shall be paid by the Company.
3. Any reimbursement by the Company pursuant to this Section shall be subject to compliance with applicable provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance regulations found in Part 359 (entitled "Golden Parachute and Indemnification Payments") of Title 12 of the Code of Federal Regulations (or any successor provisions).
