3. Base Compensation.
The COMPANY shall pay to the EXECUTIVE, and the EXECUTIVE agrees to
accept, minimum base compensation of:
(a) One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000) per year for
the initial year of this Agreement, which base compensation
shall increase to
(b) One Hundred Sixty-Five Thousand Dollars ($165,000) per year
on the first anniversary of the Commencement Date, to
(c) One Hundred Eighty-One Thousand Five Hundred Dollars
($181,500) per year on the second anniversary of the

($219,615) per year on the fourth anniversary of the
Commencement Date.
(f) In the event the employment is extended for any period as
provided for in this Agreement, the salary shall increase
for each subsequent year at a rate equal to the greater of:
110% of the previous years' salary or the EXECUTIVE's last
years' salary increased by the Consumer Price Index, CPI,
rounded up to the nearest $100. For example, on the fifth
anniversary of the Commencement Date under this Agreement,
the EXECUTIVE's salary shall be equal to the greater of:
$219,615 times 1.10 which equals $241,600 or the CPI
increase (assuming the CPI for this period is 11%), then the
next years' salary would increase to $243,800 it being the
greater amount.
4. Additional Compensation.
In addition to the base compensation set forth in Paragraph 3, above,
the COMPANY shall pay the EXECUTIVE the following as additional
compensation:
(a) During the term of this Agreement and any renewal term
thereof, the EXECUTIVE shall receive, for each fiscal year
of the COMPANY (or part thereof as to fiscal year 1992), a
salary incentive equal to 2.5% of the pre-tax net income of
the COMPANY, which bonus incentive shall be paid in cash to
the EXECUTIVE within fifteen (15) days after receipt by the
COMPANY of the COMPANY's audited financial statements for
the fiscal year. If this Agreement is terminated prior to
the end of the fiscal year, the incentive bonus due to the
EXECUTIVE shall be prorated through the last day of
EXECUTIVE's employment during such fiscal year. For purposes
of calculating the bonus incentive, pre-tax net income shall
be based upon the COMPANY's year-end audited financial
statements as determined in the course of the COMPANY's
normal audit. The determination and calculation of the
COMPANY's pre-tax net income and the EXECUTIVE's bonus
incentive by the COMPANY's independent certified public
accountant shall be conclusive and binding upon the COMPANY
and the EXECUTIVE. If the EXECUTIVE is required to pay any
income taxes attributable to the foregoing the COMPANY shall
pay said taxes, when due.
(b) In addition, in the event the COMPANY acquires all, or a
portion of, or merges with an existing financial
institution, the EXECUTIVE shall receive an incentive bonus
equal to 0.20% of the gross assets for each such
transaction, which bonus shall be payable upon the closing
of such acquisition. For example, if such a transaction
represented $50 million in assets, the bonus would be equal
to ($100,000, ($50,000 x 0.0020). If the EXECUTIVE is
required to pay any income taxes attributable to the
foregoing, the COMPANY shall pay said taxes, when due.
5. Stock Options.
(a) As of June 11, 1992, the COMPANY hereby grants to EXECUTIVE
stock options to purchase the greater of Two Hundred and
Eight Thousand (208,000) shares of the COMPANY's common
stock, or 4.0% of the outstanding shares issued pursuant to
the Private Offering Memorandum dated June 11, 1992, or any
future offerings Public or Private, at a price equal to
110%of the Book Value per share, on the date said Stock
Options are granted. For example, let us assume that the net
worth of the COMPANY was equal to $1 Million, and the then
total number shares outstanding was 10 Million shares, on
the date of granting of said options, then the Option Price
would be equal to 11(cent)per share; ($1,000,000/10,000,000)
x 110% = $0.11/share. Options for the greater of Forty-one
Thousand Six Hundred (41,600) shares or 0.80% of the then
total outstanding shares shall vest and become exercisable
on each of the four annual anniversaries following the
Commencement Date. In the event any additional or future
Private or Public offerings are consummated, EXECUTIVE shall
be immediately entitled to additional stock options in
amounts and equivalent percentages as recited in this
paragraph at the price computed in the above example,
pursuant to any future Public or Private offerings; the
EXECUTIVE shall have been granted stock options totaling
least 4.0% of the total outstanding shares. The EXECUTIVE
may exercise any such stock options at or prior to ten years
(10 years) following the granting of any such stock options
at EXECUTIVE's sole discretion, whether or not the EXECUTIVE
is employed by the COMPANY. This Stock Option provision does
not require execution of any other agreement, the granting
of the options recited above shall be automatic, and does
not require annual "granting" letters to the EXECUTIVE by
the COMPANY.
(b) If permitted by applicable law, the COMPANY shall loan to
EXECUTIVE such amounts as may be required in order for
EXECUTIVE to exercise the stock options provided in this
Paragraph 5 the amount of which loans shall not be in excess
of the exercise price thereof. The terms of any such loan
shall include a period of repayment of not less than thirty
(30) months and an annual interest rate not in excess of the

and federal law and regulations.

termination of this Agreement and the EXECUTIVE shall have
ten (10) years from the date of such termination to exercise
such stock options.

as an "incentive stock option" as defined in Section 422 of

of the total of all classes of the issued and outstanding shares of
the company's capital stock, for Class-A common stock options that
have been granted from 7/1/97 through to the date of each such

the exchange rate equal to 110% of the then book value of the
COMPANY's Stock, as determined by most recent previously issued 6
month financial statement, either the unaudited June 30th or the
audited December 31st; After each such exchange [common stock for
unpaid and accrued salary and/or benefits] the COMPANY shall pay to
the executive no later than when due by the then IRS code, a tax
incentive bonus equal to any personal income tax liability for the
EXECUTIVE that may result, because of any said exchanges for relief of
debt owed by COMPANY to the EXECUTIVE, above mentioned.
All other terms and conditions of the original EXECUTIVE Employment agreement of
June 11, 1992, are in full force and effect as if fully restate herein at
length, and as attached hereto for reference.
