WHEREAS, the Bank and the Director are parties to a Director Indexed Fee Continuation Plan Agreement effective as of January 7, 1997 (the “Original Agreement”), which, in consideration of the Director’s faithful service to the Bank, is intended to provide for the payment of a benefit by the Bank to the Director and/or his beneficiaries upon the Director’s retirement from the Board of Directors of the Bank.

WHEREAS, the parties wish to further amend the Original Agreement to ensure that it complies with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the Treasury Regulations and other guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service adopted or issued thereunder, and to restate the Original Agreement as amended.

Therefore, in consideration of the foregoing premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Bank and the Director agree to amend and restate the Original Agreement to read as follows:

Agreement

I.	DEFINITIONS

Effective Date:

The effective date of this Agreement shall be Effective Date.

Plan Year:

Any reference to “year” shall mean a calendar year from January 1 to December 31. In the year of implementation, the term “year” shall mean the period from the effective date to December 31 of the year of the effective date.

Normal Retirement Date:

The Normal Retirement Date shall mean the first day of the month coincident with or next following the date the Director retires from service as a Bank director on or after his sixty-fifth (65th) birthday.

Early Retirement Date:

Early Retirement Date shall mean the date the Director retires from service as a Bank director on or after his fifty-fifth (55th) birthday but before his sixty-fifth (65th) birthday.

Pre-Retirement Account:

A Pre-Retirement Account shall be established as a liability reserve account on the books of the Bank for the benefit of the Director. Prior to termination of service or the Director's retirement (early or normal), such liability reserve account shall be increased or decreased each year by an amount equal to the annual earnings or loss for the year determined by the Index, less the Cost of Funds Expense for that year.

Index Retirement Benefit:

The Index Retirement Benefit for the Director for any year shall be equal to the excess of the annual earnings (if any) determined by the Index for that year over the Cost of Funds Expense for that year.

Index:

The Index for any year shall be the aggregate annual after-tax income from the life insurance contract described hereinafter as defined by FASB Technical Bulletin 85-4.

Insurance Company:

Policy Form:

Policy Name:

Insured's Age and Sex:

Riders:

Ratings:

Option:

Face Amount:

Premiums Paid:

Number of Premiums Paid:

Assumed Purchase Date:

If such contracts of life insurance are actually purchased by the Bank then the actual policies as of the dates they were purchased shall be used in calculations under this Agreement. If such contracts of life insurance are not purchased or are subsequently surrendered or lapsed, then the Bank shall receive annual policy illustrations that assume the above described policies were purchased from the above named insurance company(ies) on the effective date from which the increase in policy value will be used to calculate the amount of the Index.

In either case, references to the life insurance contract are merely for purposes of calculating a benefit. The Bank has no obligation to purchase such life insurance and, if purchased, the Director and his beneficiary(ies) shall have no ownership interest in such policy and shall always have no greater interest in the benefits under this Agreement than that of an unsecured general creditor of the Bank.

Cost of Funds Expense:

The Cost of Funds Expense for any year shall be calculated by taking the sum of the amount of premiums set forth in the Indexed policies described above plus the amount of any after-tax benefits paid to the Director pursuant to this Agreement (Paragraph III hereinafter) plus the amount of all previous years after-tax Costs of Funds Expense, and multiplying that sum by the average after-tax Cost of Funds of the Bank's third quarter Call Report for the Plan Year as filed with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.

Change Of Control:

Change of Control shall means a change in the ownership of a corporation, a change in the effective control of a corporation, or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of a corporation’s assets, as such terms are defined in Treasury Reg. §1.409A-3(i)(5).

Separation from Service:

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent that any benefit under this Agreement is payable upon a Director’s retirement or other event involving the Director’s cessation of services as a Bank director, such payment(s) shall not be made unless such event constitutes a “Separation from Service” as defined in Treasury Reg. §1.409A-1(h).

II.

NO EMPLOYMENT RIGHTS CREATED

This Agreement does not create, and shall not be deemed to create, any legal or equitable right of the Director to serve as an employee of or to continue service as a director of the Bank, nor shall it restrict or limit any existing employment agreement by and between the Bank and the Director.

III.

INDEX BENEFITS

Should the Director die after his fifty-fifth (55th) birthday, while serving as a Bank director or having retired from service as a Bank director on or after his fifty-fifth (55th) birthday, but before having received his entire Pre-Retirement Account, the unpaid balance of the Pre-Retirement Account shall be paid in a lump sum to the beneficiary selected by the Director and filed with the Bank. In the absence of or a failure to designate a beneficiary, the unpaid balance shall be paid in a lump sum to the personal representative of the Director's estate. In either case, such lump sum shall be paid within (60) days after the Director’s death.

Death Benefit:

Except as set forth above, there is no death benefit provided under this Agreement.

Restriction on Timing of Distribution:

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, distributions to the Director on account of a Separation from Service may not commence earlier than six (6) months after the date of a Separation from Service if, pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, the Director is considered a “specified employee” (under Code Section 416(i), disregarding Code Section 416(i) and using the definition of compensation under Treasury Reg. §1.415(c)-2(d)(4)) of the Bank and if, on the date of such Separation from Service, any stock of the Bank is publicly traded. In the event a distribution is delayed pursuant to this subparagraph, the originally scheduled distribution shall be delayed for six (6) months, and shall commence instead on the first (1st) day of the seventh (7th) month following Separation from Service. If payments are scheduled to be made in installments, the first six (6) months of installment payments shall be delayed, aggregated, and paid instead on the first (1st) day of the seventh (7th) month, after which all installment payments shall be made on their regular schedule. If payment is scheduled to be made in a lump sum, the lump sum payment shall be delayed for six (6) months and instead be made on the (1st) day of the seventh (7th) month.

Certain Accelerated Payments:

The Bank may make any accelerated distribution permissible under Treasury Reg. §1.409A-3(j)(4) to the Director of deferred amounts (including a lump sum distribution upon revocation of the Agreement under Section VI.C.), provided that such distribution(s) meets the requirements of §1.409A-3(j)(4).

Subsequent Changes to Time and Form of Payment:

The Bank may permit a subsequent change to the time and form of benefit distributions. Any such change shall be considered made only when it becomes irrevocable under the terms of the Agreement. Any change will be considered irrevocable not later than thirty (30) days following acceptance of the change by the Bank, subject to the following rules:

(1)

the subsequent deferral election may not take effect until at least twelve (12) months after the date on which the election is made;

(2)

the payment (except in the case of death) upon which the subsequent deferral election is made is deferred for a period of not less than five (5) years from the date such payment would otherwise have been paid; and

(3)

in the case of a payment made at a specified time, the election must be made not less than twelve (12) months before the date the payment is scheduled to be paid.

IV.

RESTRICTIONS UPON FUNDING

The Bank shall have no obligation to set aside, earmark or entrust any fund or money with which to pay its obligations under this Agreement. The Director, his beneficiary(ies) or any successor in interest to him shall be and remain simply a general creditor of the Bank in the same manner as any other creditor having a general claim for matured and unpaid compensation.

The Bank reserves the absolute right at its sole discretion to either fund the obligations undertaken by this Agreement or to refrain from funding the same and to determine the exact nature and method of such funding. Should the Bank elect to fund this Agreement, in whole or in part, through the purchase of life insurance, mutual funds, disability policies or annuities, the Bank reserves the absolute right, in its sole discretion, to terminate such funding at any time, in whole or in part. At no time shall the Director be deemed to have any lien or right, title or interest in or to any specific funding investment or to any assets of the Bank.

If the Bank elects to invest in a life insurance, disability or annuity policy upon the life of the Director, then the Director shall assist the Bank by freely submitting to a physical exam and supplying such additional information necessary to obtain such insurance or annuities.

V.	CHANGE OF CONTROL

If the Director’s employment is involuntarily terminated following a Change of Control and before his sixty-fifth (65th) birthday, he shall receive the benefits described in Section III.A. as if he had continuously served as a Bank director until his sixty-fifth (65th) birthday. Such benefits shall be paid in the form of payment described in Section III.A., with installments commencing within thirty (30) days of the Director’s sixty-fifth (65th) birthday and with subsequent installments paid within thirty (30) days following each anniversary of his sixty-fifth (65th birthday). If a Director described in the preceding sentence dies before having received his entire Pre-Retirement Account, the unpaid balance of the Pre-Retirement Account shall be paid in a lump sum to the beneficiary selected by the Director and filed with the Bank (or, in the absence of such beneficiary, to the personal representative of his estate) within sixty (60) days after the Director’s death. In addition, no sale, merger or consolidation of the Bank shall take place unless the new or surviving entity expressly acknowledges the obligations under this Agreement and agrees to abide by its terms.

VI.

The Named Fiduciary and Administrator and the Bank shall review the written claim and if the claim is denied, in whole or in part, they shall provide in writing within ninety (90) days of receipt of such claim their specific reasons for such denial, reference to the provisions of this Agreement upon which the denial is based and any additional material or information necessary to perfect the claim. Such written notice shall further indicate the additional steps to be taken by claimants if a further review of the claim denial is desired.

If claimants desire a second review they shall notify the Named Fiduciary and Administrator in writing within ninety (90) days of the first claim denial. Claimants may review this Agreement or any documents relating thereto and submit any written issues and comments they may feel appropriate. In its sole discretion, the Named Fiduciary and Administrator shall then review the second claim and provide a written decision within ninety (90) days of receipt of such claim. This decision shall likewise state the specific reasons for the decision and shall include reference to specific provisions of this Agreement upon which the decision is based.
