This AGREEMENT is made effective as of _____________, 199_, by and between
First Source Bancorp, Inc. (the "Holding Company"), a corporation organized
under the laws of the State of Delaware, with its office at 0000 Xxxxxxxxxx
Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxx, and _________________ ("Executive"). The
term "Bank" refers to First Savings Bank, SLA, the wholly-owned subsidiary of
the Holding Company or any successor thereto.
WHEREAS, the Holding Company recognizes the substantial contribution
Executive has made to the Holding Company and wishes to protect his position
therewith for the period provided in this Agreement; and
WHEREAS, Executive has agreed to serve in the employ of the Holding Company
or an affiliate thereof.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the contribution and responsibilities
of Executive, and upon the other terms and conditions hereinafter provided, the
parties hereto agree as follows:
1. TERM OF AGREEMENT.
-----------------
The period of this Agreement shall be deemed to have commenced as of the
date first above written and shall continue for a period of thirty-six (36)
full calendar months thereafter. Commencing on the date of the execution of
this Agreement, the term of this Agreement shall be extended for one day each
day until such time as the board of directors of the Holding Company (the
"Board") or Executive elects not to extend the term of the Agreement by giving
written notice to the other party in accordance with Section 8 of this
Agreement, in which case the term of this Agreement shall be fixed and shall end
on the third anniversary of the date of such written notice.
2. CHANGE IN CONTROL.
-----------------
(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Holding Company (as
herein defined) followed at any time during the term of this Agreement by the
termination of Executive's employment, the provisions of Section 3 shall apply.
Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, Executive shall have the right to
elect to voluntarily terminate his employment at any time during the term of
this Agreement following any demotion, loss of title, office or significant
authority, reduction in annual compensation or material reduction in benefits,
or relocation of his principal place of employment by more than 25 miles from
its location immediately prior to the Change in Control, unless such termination
is because of death or termination for cause.
(b) For purposes of this Agreement, a "Change in Control" of the Bank or
Holding Company shall mean an event of a nature that: (i) would be required to
be reported in response to Item 1(a) 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 0000 (xxx "Xxxxxxxx Xxx"); or (ii) results in a Change in
Control of the Bank or the Holding Company within the meaning of the Home
Owners' Loan Act of 1933, as amended, the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, or the
Rules and Regulations promulgated by the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS")
(or its predecessor agency), as in effect on the date hereof (provided, that in
applying the definition of change in control as set forth under the rules and
regulations of the OTS, the Board shall substitute its judgment for that of the
OTS); 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 voting
securities of the Bank or the Holding Company representing 20% or more of the
Bank's or the Holding Company's outstanding voting securities except for any
voting securities of the Bank purchased by the Holding Company in connection
with the conversion of the Bank to the stock form and any voting securities
purchased by any employee benefit plan of the Bank, 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 Holding 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 Holding Company
or similar transaction occurs in which the Bank or Holding Company is not the
resulting entity; provided, however, that such an event listed above will be
deemed to have occurred or to have been effectuated upon the receipt of all
required federal regulatory approvals not including the lapse of any statutory
waiting periods, or (D) a proxy statement is distributed soliciting proxies from
stockholders of the Holding Company, by someone other than the current
management of the Holding Company, seeking stockholder approval of a plan of
reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Holding Company or Bank with one
or more corporations as a result of which the outstanding shares of the class of
securities then subject to such plan or transaction are exchanged for or
converted into cash or property or securities not issued by the Bank or the
Holding Company shall be distributed, or (E) a tender offer is made for 20% or
more of the voting securities of the Bank or Holding Company then outstanding.
(c) Executive shall not have the right to receive termination benefits
pursuant to Section 3 hereof upon Termination for Cause. The term "Termination
for Cause" shall mean termination because of a material loss to the Holding
Company or one of its Subsidiaries caused by Executive's intentional failure to
perform stated duties, personal dishonesty, willful violation of any law, rule,
regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses), final cease and
desist order, or any material breach of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Executive shall not be deemed to have been Terminated for Cause
unless and until there shall have been
-2-
delivered to him a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of
not less than three-fourths of the members of the Board at a meeting of the
Board called and held for that purpose (after reasonable notice to Executive and
an opportunity for him, together with counsel, to be heard before the Board),
finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board, Executive was guilty of
conduct justifying Termination for Cause and specifying the particulars thereof
in detail. Executive shall not have the right to receive compensation or other
benefits for any period after Termination for Cause. During the period beginning
on the date of the Notice of Termination for Cause pursuant to Section 8 hereof
through the Date of Termination, stock options and related limited rights
granted to Executive under any stock option plan shall not be exercisable nor
shall any unvested awards granted to Executive under any stock benefit plan of
the Bank, the Holding Company or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof, vest. At
the Date of Termination, such stock options and related limited rights and any
such unvested awards, shall become null and void and shall not be exercisable by
or delivered to Executive at any time subsequent to such Termination For Cause.
3. TERMINATION BENEFITS.
--------------------
(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, followed at any time during
the term of this Agreement by the voluntary or involuntary termination of
Executive's employment, other than for Termination for Cause, the Holding
Company shall be obligated to pay Executive, or in the event of his subsequent
death, his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be, a
sum equal to three (3) times Executive's average annual compensation for the
five most recent taxable years that Executive has been employed by the Bank or
such lesser number of years in the event that Executive shall have been employed
by the Bank for less than five years. Such annual compensation shall include
Base Salary, commissions, bonuses, contributions on behalf of Executive to any
pension and profit sharing plan, severance payments, director or committee fees
and fringe benefits paid or to be paid to the Executive during such years. At
the election of Executive which election is to be made prior to a Change in
Control, such payment shall be made in a lump sum. In the event that no
election is made, payment to Executive will be made on a monthly basis in
approximately equal installments during the remaining term of this Agreement.
Such payments shall not be reduced in the event Executive obtains other
employment following termination of employment.
(b) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Bank or the Holding
Company followed at any time during the term of this Agreement by Executive's
termination of employment, other than for Termination for Cause, the Holding
Company shall cause to be continued life, medical and disability coverage
substantially identical to the coverage maintained by the Bank for Executive
prior to his severance, except to the extent such coverage may be changed in its
application to all Bank employees. Such coverage and payments shall cease upon
expiration of thirty-six (36) full calendar months following the Date of
Termination.
-3-
(c) Notwithstanding the preceding paragraphs of this Section 3, in the
event that:
(i) the aggregate payments or benefits to be made or afforded to
Executive, which are deemed to be parachute payments as defined
in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the "Code") or any successor thereof, (the "Termination
Benefits") would be deemed to include an "excess parachute
payment" under Section 280G of the Code; and
(ii) if such Termination Benefits were reduced to an amount (the "Non-
Triggering Amount"), the value of which is one dollar ($1.00)
less than an amount equal to three (3) times Executive's "base
amount," as determined in accordance with said Section 280G and
the Non-Triggering Amount less the product of the marginal rate
of any applicable state and federal income tax and the Non
Triggering Amount would be greater than the aggregate value of
the Termination Benefits (without such reduction) minus (i) the
amount of tax required to be paid by the Executive thereon by
Section 4999 of the Code and further minus (ii) the product of
the Termination Benefits and the marginal rate of any applicable
state and federal income tax,
then the Termination Benefits shall be reduced to the Non-Triggering
Amount. The allocation of the reduction required hereby among the Termination
Benefits shall be determined by the Executive.
4. NOTICE OF TERMINATION.
---------------------
(a) Any purported termination by the Holding Company, or by Executive
shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto. 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 detail the facts and circumstances claimed to
provide a basis for termination of Executive's employment under the provision so
indicated.
(b) "Date of Termination" shall mean the date specified in the Notice of
Termination (which, in the case of Termination for Cause, shall not be less than
thirty (30) days from the date such Notice of Termination is given).
(c) If, within thirty (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 Date of Termination shall be the
date on which the dispute is finally determined, either by mutual written
agreement of the parties, by a binding arbitration award, or by a final
judgment, order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction (the time for
appeal therefrom
-4-
having expired and no appeal having been perfected) and provided further that
the Date of Termination shall be extended by a notice of dispute only if such
notice is given in good faith and the party giving such notice pursues the
resolution of such dispute with reasonable diligence. Notwithstanding the
pendency of any such dispute, the Holding Company will continue to pay Executive
his full compensation in effect when the notice giving rise to the dispute was
given (including, but not limited to his current annual salary) and continue him
as a participant in all compensation, benefit and insurance plans in which he
was participating when the notice of dispute was given, until the dispute is
finally resolved in accordance with this Agreement. Amounts paid under this
Section 4(c) are in addition to all other amounts due under this Agreement and
shall not be offset against or reduce any other amounts due under this
Agreement.
5. SOURCE OF PAYMENTS.
------------------
It is intended by the parties hereto that all payments provided in this
Agreement shall be paid in cash or check from the general funds of the Holding
Company. Further, the Holding Company guarantees such payment and provision of
all amounts and benefits due hereunder to Executive and, if such amount and
benefits due from the Bank are not timely paid or provided by the Bank, such
amounts and benefits shall be paid and provided by the Holding Company.
6. EFFECT ON PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND EXISTING BENEFIT PLANS.
-----------------------------------------------------
This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the parties hereto
and supersedes any prior agreement between the Holding Company 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.
Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon Executive the right to continue
in the employ of the Holding Company or shall impose on the Holding Company any
obligation to employ or retain Executive in its employ for any period.
7. NO ATTACHMENT.
-------------
(a) 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 affect any such action shall be null,
void, and of no effect.
(b) This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of,
Executive, the Holding Company and their respective successors and assigns.
-5-
8. MODIFICATION AND WAIVER.
-----------------------
(a) This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument
in writing signed by the parties hereto.
(b) 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 or as to any act other than that
specifically waived.
9. REINSTATEMENT OF BENEFITS UNDER BANK AGREEMENT.
----------------------------------------------
In the event Executive is suspended and/or temporarily prohibited from
participating in the conduct of the Bank's affairs by a notice described in
Section 9(b) of the Change-in-Control Agreement between Executive and the Bank

Agreement and a Change in Control, as defined herein, occurs the Holding Company
will assume its obligation to pay and Executive will be entitled to receive all
of the termination benefits provided for under Section 3 of the Bank Agreement
upon the notification of the Holding Company of the Bank's receipt of a
dismissal of charges in the Notice.
10. EFFECT OF ACTION UNDER BANK AGREEMENT.
--------------------------------------
Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, to the extent that
payments and benefits are paid to or received by Executive under the Bank
Agreement between Executive and Bank, the amount of such payments and benefits
paid by the Bank will be subtracted from any amount due simultaneously to
Executive under similar provisions of this Agreement.
11. 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.
