Re: SUPPLEMENTAL PENSION BENEFIT AGREEMENT
Dear Gene:
This letter agreement ("Agreement") is to confirm our mutual understanding and
agreement regarding changes to the supplemental pension payable to you under
your Supplemental Pension Benefit Agreement, dated October 19, 1994, as amended
(the "SPBA").
As you know, under that agreement you are entitled to an annual benefit of
$78,000 ($6,500 per month) payable in the form of a life and 15-year certain
annuity, payment of which is scheduled to commence in 2006. Notwithstanding
that, First Oak Brook Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") will pay or will cause to
be paid to you a lump sum payment of $542,000 (less withholding, if applicable)
on or about January 31, 2006, which payment shall be in full satisfaction of all
of the Company's obligations under the SPBA and neither you nor the Company
shall have any further rights or obligations under the SPBA and no further
payments will be made with respect thereto.
You acknowledge that you have read this Agreement, and that you have executed
this Agreement of your own free will and with full knowledge of its meaning and
consequences.
This Agreement constitutes an amendment of the SPBA and represents the entire
agreement between the Company and you with regard to the matters described
herein, and shall not be modified or amended in any manner except by a
supplemental written agreement signed by both you and the Company.
Please confirm that his Agreement correctly sets forth our mutual understanding
and agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof by signing and dating
the enclosed duplicate copy and returning it to me by December 31, 2005.
Very truly yours,
FIRST OAK BROOK BANCSHARES, INC.
