hereinafter stated;
NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed:
1. GRANT OF OPTION. Pursuant to said action of the Board of Directors
and pursuant to authorizations granted by all appropriate regulatory and
governmental agencies, the Bank hereby grants to Optionee the option to
purchase, upon and subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, which is
incorporated in full herein by this reference, all or any part of Six Thousand
(6,000) shares of the Bank's common stock (hereinafter called "stock") at the
price of Fifteen Dollars and No Cents ($15.00), which price is not less than one
hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value of the stock (or not less than
1
110% of the fair market value for Optionee-Shareholders) who own more than 10%)
of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Bank) as of
the date of action of the Board of Directors, granting this option.
2. EXERCISABILITY. This option shall be cumulatively exercisable as to
number of option Granted herein and will vest in equal installments of One
Thousand Two Hundred (1,200 over a period of five (5) years from the date of the
grant. This option shall remain exercisable as to all of such shares until June
1, 2010, (but not later than ten (10) years from the date this option is
granted) unless this option has expired or terminated earlier in accordance with
the provisions hereof. Shares as to which this option becomes exercisable
pursuant to the foregoing provision may be purchased at any time prior to
expiration of this option.
3. EXERCISE OF OPTION. This option may be exercised by written notice
delivered to the Bank stating the number of shares with respect to which this
option is being exercised, together with cash in the amount of the purchase
price of such shares. Not less than one (1) share may be purchased at any one
time, and in no event may the option be exercised with respect to fractional
shares. Upon exercise, Optionee shall make appropriate arrangements and shall be
responsible for the withholding of any federal and state taxes then due.
4. CESSATION OF EMPLOYMENT. Except as provided in Paragraphs 2 and 5
hereof, if Optionee shall cease to be an employee of the Bank or a subsidiary
corporation for any reason other than Optionee's death or disability [as defined
in Section 22(e)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time
to time (the "Code")], this option shall expire three (3) months thereafter.
During the three (3) month period this option shall be exercisable only as to
those installments, if any, which had

accrued as of the date when the Optionee ceased to be an employee of the Bank or
a subsidiary corporation.
5. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT FOR CAUSE. If Optionee's employment with
the Bank or a subsidiary corporation is terminated for cause, this option shall

days (30) days of such termination by giving written notice of such
reinstatement to Optionee at his or her last known address. In the event of such
reinstatement, Optionee may exercise this option only to such extent, for such
time, and upon such terms and conditions as if Optionee had ceased to be an
employee of the Bank or a subsidiary corporation upon the date of such
termination for a reason other than cause, death or disability. Termination for
cause shall include, but not be limited to, termination for malfeasance or gross
misfeasance in the performance of duties or conviction of a crime involving
moral turpitude, and, in any event, the determination of the Board of Directors
with respect thereto shall be final and conclusive.

Paragraph 4 hereof, this option shall expire one (1) year after the date of
Optionee's death or on the day specified in Paragraph 2 hereof, whichever is
earlier. After Optionee's death but before such expiration, the persons to whom
Optionee's rights under this option shall have passed by will or by the
applicable laws of descent and distribution or the executor or administrator of
Optionee's estate shall have the right to exercise this option as to those
shares for which installments had accrued under Paragraph 2 hereof as of the
date on which
3
Optionee ceased to be an employee of the Bank or a subsidiary corporation.
If Optionee terminates his or her employment because of disability,
Optionee may exercise this option to the extent he or she is entitled to do so
at the date of termination, at any time within one (1) year of the date of
termination, or before the expiration date specified in Paragraph 2 hereof,
whichever is earlier.
7. EMPLOYMENT. This Agreement shall not obligate the Bank or a
subsidiary corporation to employ Optionee for any period, nor shall it interfere
in any way with the right of the Bank or a subsidiary corporation to reduce
Optionee's compensation.
8. PRIVILEGES OF STOCK OWNERSHIP. Optionee shall have no rights as a
shareholder with respect to the Bank's stock subject to this option until the
date of issuance of stock certificates to Optionee. Except as provided in the
Plan, no adjustment will be made for dividends or other rights for which the
record date is prior to the date such stock certificates are issued.

modification and termination upon the occurrence of certain events as provided
in Sections 13 and 14 of the Plan.
