EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT is made effective as of January 1, 2000, by and between
American Federal Savings Bank (the "BANK"), Eagle Bancorp (the "COMPANY"), a
federal corporation, and Eagle Financial MHC ("MHC"); and Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx
("EXECUTIVE").
WHEREAS, EXECUTIVE serves in a position of substantial responsibility;
WHEREAS, the BANK wishes to assure itself of the services of EXECUTIVE
for the period provided in this Agreement; and
WHEREAS, EXECUTIVE is willing to serve in the employ of the BANK on a
full-time basis for said period.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein
contained, and upon the other terms and conditions hereinafter provided, the
parties hereby agree as follows:
1. POSITION AND RESPONSIBILITIES.
During the period of his employment hereunder, EXECUTIVE agrees to
serve as President of the BANK. During said period, EXECUTIVE also agrees to
serve, if elected, as an officer and director of the MHC, COMPANY or any
subsidiary or affiliate of the COMPANY or the BANK. Executive shall render
administrative and management duties to the BANK such as are customarily
performed by persons situated in a similar executive capacity.
2. TERMS AND DUTIES.
(a) The term of this Agreement shall be deemed to have commenced as of
the date first above written and shall continue for a period of three years
thereafter. Commencing on the first anniversary date, e.g. 36 months after
commencement of the term and continuing at each twelve month anniversary date
thereafter, the Board of Directors of the BANK (the "Board") may extend the
Agreement for an additional year. Prior to the extension of the Agreement as
provided herein, the Board of the BANK will conduct a formal performance
evaluation of EXECUTIVE for purposes of determining whether to extend the
Agreement, and the results thereof shall be included in the minutes of the
Board's meeting.
(b) During the period of his employment hereunder, except for periods
of absence occasioned by illness, reasonable vacation periods, and reasonable
leaves of absence, EXECUTIVE shall devote substantially all his business time,
attention, skill, and efforts to the faithful performance of his duties
hereunder including activities and services related to the organization,
operation and management of the BANK; provided, however, that, with the approval
of the Board, as evidenced by a resolution of such Board, from time to time,
EXECUTIVE may serve, or continue to serve, on the boards of directors of, and
hold any other offices or positions in, companies or organizations, which, in
such Board's judgment, will not present any conflict of interest with the BANK,
or materially affect the performance of EXECUTIVE's duties pursuant to this
Agreement.
1
3. COMPENSATION AND REIMBURSEMENT.
(a) The compensation specified under this Agreement shall constitute
the salary and benefits paid for the duties described in Sections 1 and 2. The
BANK shall pay EXECUTIVE as compensation a salary of $_________________ per year
("Base Salary"). Such Base Salary shall be payable in accordance with the
customary payroll practices of the BANK. During the period of this Agreement,
EXECUTIVE's Base Salary shall be reviewed at least annually; the first such
review will be made no later than one year from the date of this Agreement. Such
review shall be conducted by a Committee designated by the Board, and the Board
may increase EXECUTIVE's Base Salary. In addition to the Base Salary provided in
this Section 3(a), the BANK shall provide EXECUTIVE at no cost to EXECUTIVE with
all such other benefits as are provided uniformly to permanent full-time
employees of the BANK.
(b) The BANK will provide EXECUTIVE with employee benefit plans,
arrangements and perquisites substantially equivalent to those in which
EXECUTIVE was participating or otherwise deriving benefit from immediately prior
to the beginning of the term of this agreement, and the BANK will not, without
EXECUTIVE's prior written consent, make any changes in such plans, arrangements
or perquisites which would adversely affect EXECUTIVE's rights or benefits
thereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of this
Subsection (b), EXECUTIVE will be entitled to participate in or receive benefits
under any employee benefit plans including, but not limited to, retirement
plans, profit-sharing plans, health-and-accident plans, medical coverage or any
other employee benefit plan or arrangement made available by the BANK in the
future to its senior executives and key management employees, subject to, and on
a basis consistent with, the terms, conditions and overall administration of
such plans and arrangements. EXECUTIVE will be entitled to incentive
compensation and bonuses as provided in any plan, or pursuant to any arrangement
of the BANK in which EXECUTIVE is eligible to participate. Nothing paid to
EXECUTIVE under any such plan or arrangement will be deemed to be in lieu of
other compensation to which EXECUTIVE is entitled under this Agreement.
(c) In addition to the Base Salary provided for by paragraph (a) of
this Section 3, the BANK shall pay or reimburse EXECUTIVE for all reasonable
travel and other obligations under this Agreement and may provide such
additional compensation in such form and such amounts as the Board may from time
to time determine.
4. PAYMENTS TO EXECUTIVE UPON AN EVENT OF TERMINATION.
(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination (as herein defined)
during EXECUTIVE's term of employment under this Agreement, the provisions of
this Section shall apply. As used in this Agreement, an "Event of Termination"
shall mean and include any one or more of the following; (i) the termination by
the BANK of EXECUTIVE's full-time employment hereunder for any reason,
disability, as defined in Section 5(a) hereof; death; resignation or retirement,
as defined in Section 6 hereof, or termination for cause, as defined in Section
7 hereof; (ii) EXECUTIVE's resignation from the BANK's employ, upon (A) unless
consented to by EXECUTIVE, a material change in EXECUTIVE's function, duties, or
responsibilities, which change would cause EXECUTIVE's position to become one of
lesser responsibility, importance, or scope from the position and attributes
thereof described in Sections
2
1 and 2, above (any such material change shall be deemed a continuing breach of
this Agreement), (B) unless consented to by EXECUTIVE, a relocation of
EXECUTIVE's principal place of employment by more than 50 miles from its
location at the effective date of this Agreement, or, without EXECUTIVE's
consent, a material reduction in the benefits and perquisites to EXECUTIVE from
those being provided as of the effective date of this Agreement, (C) the
liquidation or dissolution of the BANK, or (D) any breach of this Agreement by
the BANK. Upon the occurrence of any event described in clauses (A), (B), (C),
or (D), above, EXECUTIVE shall have the right to elect to terminate his
employment under this Agreement by resignation upon not less than sixty (60)
days prior written notice given within a reasonable period of time not to
exceed, except in case of a continuing breach, four (4) calendar months after
the event giving rise to such right to elect.
(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination, the BANK shall pay
EXECUTIVE, or, in the event of his subsequent death, his beneficiary or
beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be, as severance pay or liquidated
damages, or both, a sum equal to the payments due to EXECUTIVE for the remaining
term of the Agreement, including Base Salary (of not less than one year if an
Event of Termination occurs with a term of less than one year remaining under
this Agreement), bonuses, and any other cash or deferred compensation paid or to
be paid (including the value of employer contributions that would have been made
on EXECUTIVE's behalf over the remaining term of the agreement to any
tax-qualified retirement plan sponsored by the BANK as of the Date of
Termination) to EXECUTIVE for the term of the Agreement provided, however, that
if the BANK is not in compliance with its minimum capital requirements or if
such payments would cause the BANK's capital to be reduced below its minimum
capital requirements, such payments shall be deferred until such time as the
BANK is in capital compliance. All payments made pursuant to this Section 4(b)
shall be paid in substantially equal monthly installments over the remaining
term of this Agreement following EXECUTIVE's termination; provided, however,
that if the remaining term of the Agreement is less than one (1) year
(determined as of EXECUTIVE's Date of Termination), such payments and benefits
shall be paid to EXECUTIVE in a lump sum within thirty (30) days of the Date of
Termination.
(c) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination, the BANK will
continue to pay life, medical, dental and disability insurance having
substantially identical coverage to that maintained by the BANK for EXECUTIVE
prior to his termination. Such coverage shall cease upon the expiration of the
remaining term of this agreement unless the remaining term is less than one year
in which case the remaining term shall be deemed a one year term.
5. TERMINATION FOR DISABILITY.
(a) If EXECUTIVE shall become disabled as defined in the BANK's then
current disability plan (or, if no such plan is then in effect, if EXECUTIVE is
permanently and totally disabled within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the
Code as determined by a physician designated by the Board), the BANK may
terminate EXECUTIVE's employment for "Disability."
3
(b) Upon EXECUTIVE's termination of employment for Disability, the BANK
will pay EXECUTIVE, as disability pay, a monthly payment equal to three-quarters
(3/4) of EXECUTIVE's monthly Base Salary on the effective date of such
termination. These disability payments shall commence on the effective date of
EXECUTIVE's termination and will end on the earlier of (i) the date EXECUTIVE
returns to the full-time employment of the BANK in the same capacity as he was
employed prior to his termination for Disability and pursuant to an employment
agreement between EXECUTIVE and the BANK; (ii) EXECUTIVE's full-time employment
by another employer; (iii) EXECUTIVE attaining the age of sixty-five (65); or
(iv) EXECUTIVE's death; or (v) the expiration of this Agreement unless such
Agreement expires in less than one year in which case the Agreement shall be
deemed to expire in one year. The disability pay shall be reduced by the amount,
if any, paid to EXECUTIVE under any plan of the BANK providing disability
benefits to EXECUTIVE.
(c) The BANK will cause to be continued any life, medical, dental and
disability coverage in existence at the time of termination for disability
substantially identical to the coverage maintained by the BANK for EXECUTIVE
prior to his termination for Disability. The coverage and payments described
herein shall cease upon the earlier of (i) the date EXECUTIVE returns to the
full-time employment of the BANK, in the same capacity as he was employed prior
to his termination for Disability and pursuant to an employment agreement
between EXECUTIVE and the BANK; (ii) EXECUTIVE's full-time employment by another
employer; (iii) EXECUTIVE's attaining the age of sixty-five (65); (iv)
EXECUTIVE's death; or (v) the expiration of the term of this Agreement, unless
the Agreement expires in less than one year in which case the Agreement shall be
deemed to expire in one year.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, there will be no reduction in the
compensation otherwise payable to EXECUTIVE during any period during which
EXECUTIVE is incapable of performing his duties hereunder by reason of temporary
disability.
6. TERMINATION UPON RETIREMENT; DEATH OF EXECUTIVE; RESIGNATION.
Termination by the BANK of EXECUTIVE based on "Retirement" shall mean
retirement at or after attaining age sixty-five (65) or in accordance with any
retirement arrangement established with EXECUTIVE's consent with respect to him.
Upon termination of EXECUTIVE upon Retirement, EXECUTIVE shall be entitled to
all benefits under any retirement plan of the BANK or the COMPANY and other
plans to which EXECUTIVE is a party. Upon the death of EXECUTIVE during the term
of this Agreement, the BANK shall pay to EXECUTIVE's estate the compensation due
to EXECUTIVE through the last day of the calendar month in which his death
occurred. Upon the voluntary resignation of EXECUTIVE during the term of this
Agreement, other than in connection with an Event of Termination, the BANK shall
pay to EXECUTIVE the compensation due to EXECUTIVE through his Date of
Termination.
4
7. TERMINATION FOR CAUSE.
For purposes of this Agreement, "Termination for Cause" shall include
termination because of EXECUTIVE's personal dishonesty, incompetence, willful
misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit, intentional
failure to perform stated duties, willful violation of any law, rule, or
regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses) or final
cease-and-desist order, or material breach of any provision of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, EXECUTIVE shall not be deemed to have been
terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to him a
copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than
two-thirds (2/3) 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 reasons thereof.
EXECUTIVE shall not have the right to receive compensation or other benefits for
any period after termination for cause. Any stock options granted to EXECUTIVE
under any stock option plan or any unvested awards granted under any other stock
benefit plan of the BANK, the COMPANY, or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof,
shall become null and void effective upon EXECUTIVE's receipt of Notice of
Termination for Cause pursuant to Section 10 hereof, and shall not be
exercisable by EXECUTIVE at any time subsequent to such termination for cause.
8. REQUIRED PROVISIONS.
(a) The BANK may terminate EXECUTIVE's employment at any time, but any
termination by the BANK, other than termination for cause, shall not prejudice
EXECUTIVE's right to compensation or other benefits under this Agreement.
EXECUTIVE shall not have the right to receive compensation or other benefits for
any period after termination for cause as defined in Section 7 herein.
(b) If EXECUTIVE is suspended and/or temporarily prohibited from
participating in the conduct of the BANK's affairs by a notice served under
Section 8(e)(3) or (g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act ("FDIA"), the
BANK's obligations under the Agreement shall be suspended as of the date of
service, unless stayed by appropriate proceedings. If the charges in the notice
are dismissed, the BANK may, in its discretion, (i) pay EXECUTIVE all or part of
the compensation withheld while its contract obligations were suspended and (ii)
reinstate (in whole or in part) any of its obligations that were suspended.
(c) If EXECUTIVE is removed and/or permanently prohibited from
participating in the conduct of the BANK's affairs by an order issued under
Section 8(e)(4) or (g)(1) of the FDIA, all obligations of the BANK under the
Agreement shall terminate as of the effective date of the order, but vested
rights of the contracting parties shall not be affected.
(d) If the BANK is in default (as defined in Section 3(x)(1) of the
FDIA), all obligations under this Agreement shall terminate as of the date of
default, but this paragraph shall not affect any vested rights of the parties.
5
(e) All obligations under this Agreement shall be terminated (except to
the extent determined that continuation of the Agreement is necessary for the
continued operation of the BANK): (i) by the Director of the Office of Thrift
Supervision (the "Director') or his designee at the time the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation enters into an agreement to provide assistance to or on
behalf of the BANK under the authority contained in Section 13(c) of the FDIA or
(ii) by the Director, or his designee at the time the Director or such designee
approves a supervisory merger to resolve problems related to operation of the
BANK or when the BANK is determined by the Director to be in an unsafe or
unsound condition. Any rights of the parties that have already vested, however,
shall not be affected by such action.
(f) Any payments made to EXECUTIVE pursuant to this Agreement, or
otherwise, are subject to and conditioned upon compliance with Section 18(k) of
the FDIC and any regulations promulgated thereunder.
9. NOTICE.
(a) Any purported termination by the BANK 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 reasonable 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 (A) if EXECUTIVE's employment is
terminated for Disability, thirty (30) days after a Notice of Termination is
given (provided that he shall not have returned to the performance of his duties
on a full-time basis during such thirty (30) day period), and (B) if his
employment is terminated for any other reason, other than termination for cause,
the date specified in the Notice of Termination. In the event of EXECUTIVE's
termination for cause, the Date of Termination shall be the same as the date of
the Notice of Termination.
(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 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 BANK
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 Base 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 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.
6
10. NON-COMPETITION.
(a) Upon any termination of EXECUTIVE's employment hereunder pursuant
to an Event of Termination as provided in Section 4 hereto, EXECUTIVE agrees not
to compete with the BANK and/or the COMPANY for a period of one (1) year
following such termination in any city, town or county in which the BANK and/or
the COMPANY has an office or has filed an application for regulatory approval to
establish an office, determined as of the effective date of such termination.
EXECUTIVE agrees that during such period and within said cities, towns and
counties, EXECUTIVE shall not work for or advise, consult or otherwise serve
with, directly or indirectly, any entity whose business materially competes with
the depository, lending or other business activities of the BANK and/or the
COMPANY. The parties hereto, recognizing that irreparable injury will result to
the BANK and/or the COMPANY, its business and property in the event of
EXECUTIVE's breach of this Subsection 10(a) agree that in the event of any such
breach by EXECUTIVE, the BANK and/or the COMPANY will be entitled, in addition
to any other remedies and damages available, to an injunction to restrain the
violation hereof by EXECUTIVE, EXECUTIVE's partners, agents, servants,
employers, employees and all persons acting for or with EXECUTIVE. EXECUTIVE
represents and admits that in the event of the termination of his employment
pursuant to Section 4 hereof, EXECUTIVE's experience and capabilities are such
that EXECUTIVE can obtain employment in a business engaged in other lines and/or
of a different nature than the BANK and/or the COMPANY, and that the enforcement
of a remedy by way of injunction will not prevent EXECUTIVE from earning a
livelihood. Nothing herein will be construed as prohibiting the BANK and/or the
COMPANY from pursuing any other remedies available to the BANK and/or the
COMPANY for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages
from EXECUTIVE.
(b) EXECUTIVE recognizes and acknowledges that the knowledge of the
business activities and plans for business activities of the BANK and affiliates
thereof, as it may exist from time to time, is a valuable, special and unique
asset of the business of the BANK. EXECUTIVE will not, during or after the term
of his employment, disclose any knowledge of the past, present, planned or
considered business activities of the BANK or affiliates thereof to any person,
firm, corporation, or other entity for any reason or purpose whatsoever.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, EXECUTIVE may disclose any knowledge of banking,
financial and/or economic principles, concepts or ideas which are not solely and
exclusively derived from the business plans and activities of the BANK. In the
event of a breach or threatened breath by EXECUTIVE of the provisions of this
Section, the BANK will be entitled to an injunction restraining EXECUTIVE from
disclosing, in whole or in part, the knowledge of the past, present, planned or
considered business activities of the BANK or affiliates thereof, or from
rendering any services to any person, firm, corporation, other entity to whom
such knowledge, in whole or in part, has been disclosed or is threatened to be
disclosed. Nothing herein will be construed as prohibiting the BANK from
pursuing any other remedies available to the BANK for such breach or threatened
breach, including the recovery of damages from EXECUTIVE.
11. SOURCE OF PAYMENTS.
All payments provided in this Agreement shall be timely paid in cash or
check from the general funds of the BANK. The COMPANY, however, guarantees all
payments and the
7
provision of all amounts and benefits due hereunder to EXECUTIVE and, if such
payments are not timely paid or provided by the BANK, such amounts and benefits
shall be paid or provided by the COMPANY.
12. EFFECT ON PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND EXISTING BENEFITS PLANS.
This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the parties
hereto and supersedes any prior employment agreement between the BANK or any
predecessor of the BANK 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.
13. 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, 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 BANK, the COMPANY and their respective successors and assigns.
14. 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 by 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 as to any act other than that specifically
waived.
15. 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.
8
16. HEADINGS FOR REFERENCE ONLY.
The headings of sections and paragraphs herein are included solely for
convenience of reference and shall not control the meaning or interpretation of
any of the provisions of this Agreement.
17. GOVERNING LAW.
This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Montana,
unless otherwise specified herein; provided, however, that in the event of a
conflict between the terms of this Agreement and any applicable federal or state
law or regulation, the provisions of such law or regulation shall prevail.
18. ARBITRATION.
Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this
Agreement shall be settled exclusively by arbitration conducted before a panel
of three arbitrators sitting in a location selected by the employee within fifty
miles from the location of the BANK, in accordance with the rules of the
American Arbitration Association then in effect. Judgment may be entered on the
arbitrator's award in any court having jurisdiction; provided, however, that
EXECUTIVE shall be entitled to seek specific performance of his right to be paid
until the Date of Termination during the pendency of any dispute or controversy
arising under or in connection with this Agreement.
19. PAYMENT OF LEGAL FEES.
All reasonable legal fees paid or incurred by EXECUTIVE pursuant to any
dispute or question of interpretation relating to this Agreement shall be paid
or reimbursed by the BANK, to EXECUTIVE, if EXECUTIVE is successful pursuant to
a legal judgment, arbitration or settlement.
20. INDEMNIFICATION.
The BANK shall provide EXECUTIVE (including his heirs, executors and
administrators) with coverage under a standard directors' and officers'
liability insurance policy at its expense, or in lieu thereof, shall indemnify
EXECUTIVE (and his heirs, executors and administrators) to the fullest extent
permitted under federal banking laws against all expenses and liabilities
reasonably incurred by him in connection with or arising out of any action, suit
or proceeding in which he may be involved by reason of his having been a
director or officer of the BANK, MHC or COMPANY (whether or not he continues to
be a directors or officer at the time of incurring such expenses or
liabilities), such expenses and liabilities to include, but not be limited to,
judgment, court costs and attorneys' fees and the cost of reasonable
settlements.
9
21. SUCCESSOR TO THE MHC, BANK OR THE COMPANY.
The MHC, BANK and the COMPANY shall require any successor or assignee,
whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise, to
all or substantially all the business or assets of the MHC, BANK or the COMPANY,
expressly and unconditionally to assume and agree to perform the MHC's, BANK's
or the COMPANY's obligations under this Agreement, in the same manner and to the
same extent that the MHC, BANK or the COMPANY would be required to perform if no
such succession or assignment had taken place.
