EXHIBIT 10.2
COMMUNITY FIRST BANK & TRUST
SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN
PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT
THIS PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT (the "Participation Agreement") is entered
into as of this 16th day of August, 2005 by and between Community First Bank &
Trust (the "Employer"), and XXXX XXXXXX, an executive of the Employer (the
"Participant").
RECITALS:
WHEREAS, the Employer has adopted the ("Plan") effective as August 16,
2005, and the Administrator has determined that the Participant shall
be eligible to participate in the Plan on the terms and conditions set
forth in this Participation Agreement and the Plan.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the agreements
and covenants set forth herein, the parties agree as follows:
1. Definitions. Except as otherwise provided, or unless the context
otherwise requires, the terms used in this Participation Agreement shall have
the same meanings as set forth in the Plan.
2. Plan. Plan means the Community First Bank & Trust Supplemental
Executive Retirement Plan, as the same may be altered or supplemented in any
validly executed Participation Agreement.
3. Incorporation of Plan. The Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto
as Exhibit A, is hereby incorporated into this Participation Agreement as if
fully set forth herein, and the parties hereby agree to be bound by all of the
terms and provisions contained in the Plan. The Participant hereby acknowledges
receipt of a copy of the Plan and, subject to the foregoing, confirms his
understanding and acceptance of all of the terms and conditions contained
therein.
4. Effective Date of Participation. The effective date of the
Participant's participation in the Plan shall be August 16, 2005 (the
"Participation Date").
5. Normal Retirement Age. The Participant's Normal Retirement Age for
purposes of the Plan and this Participation Agreement is age sixty-five (65).
6. Year of Service. Participant shall be credited with one year of
service for each calendar year Participant has been employed by the Employer,
whether such employment began before or after the Participation Date.
7. Prohibition Against Funding. Should any investment be acquired in
connection with the liabilities assumed under this Plan and Participation
Agreement, it is expressly understood and agreed that the Participants and
Beneficiaries shall not have any
right with respect to, or claim against, such assets nor shall any such purchase
be construed to create a trust of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between
the Employer and the Participants, their Beneficiaries, or any other person. Any
such assets shall be and remain a part of the general, unpledged, unrestricted
assets of the Employer, subject to the claims of its general creditors. It is
the express intention of the parties hereto that this arrangement shall be
unfunded for tax purposes and for purposes of Title I of ERISA. The Participant
shall be required to look to the provisions of the Plan and to the Employer
itself for enforcement of any and all benefits due under this Participation
Agreement, and, to the extent the Participant acquires a right to receive
payment under the Plan and this Participation Agreement, such right shall be no
greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Employer. The
Employer shall be designated the owner and beneficiary of any investment
acquired in connection with its obligation under the Plan and this Participation
Agreement.
8. Provisions Related to SERP Benefit.
(a) SERP Benefit. The SERP Benefit for the Participant
shall be an annual benefit of forty percent (40%) of
Participant's average final base salary over the
immediately preceding full 24 calendar months prior
to termination of employment (upon Normal Retirement,
Early Retirement or other termination of employment,
other than termination for cause, pursuant to which
benefits are payable hereunder), paid for the period
and on the terms provided herein. Participant's base
salary calculation shall be provided by Employer's
payroll department.
(b) Normal Retirement Vesting. Participant shall be 100%
vested in his SERP Benefit upon completing 10 Years
of Service, and, except as otherwise provided herein,
shall not be vested prior thereto.
(c) Early Retirement Vesting. In the event of the
occurrence of the following:
1) Participant's attainment of
fifty-five (55) years of age; and
2) Participant's completion of ten
(10) Years of Service,
Participant may elect thereafter to retire prior to
his Normal Retirement Age ("Early Retirement") and
receive 100% of his SERP Benefit hereunder.
In the event Participant retires with an effective
date occurring prior to the realization of the
aforementioned vesting conditions,
Participant shall forfeit any entitlement to a SERP
Benefit under this Plan.
(d) Change of Control. A Participant shall be one-hundred
percent (100%) vested in their SERP Benefit upon a
Change of Control, as provided for herein. Upon
Change of Control, the payment of Participant's SERP
Benefit determined hereunder, shall not be
distributed to Participant or their Beneficiary until
the Participant's employment with the Employer
terminates. Upon Participant's termination after a
Change of Control (other than by Normal Retirement or
Early Retirement), the present value (as of the date
of termination and using the discount rate specified
in Code Section 1274 in effect for the period of
termination) of the Participant's aggregate SERP
Benefit payments shall be paid out in a lump sum
distribution to Participant, or their Beneficiary, as
soon as administratively feasible.
(e) Form of SERP Benefit Payment. Subject to the
restrictions of Section 4.3 of the Plan, the annual
SERP Benefit shall be paid each year in equal monthly
installments as of the first day of each calendar
month and shall be paid for fifteen (15) years
following the Participant's Normal Retirement or
eligible Early Retirement.
(f) Post Retirement Death Benefit. Participant's SERP
Benefit shall be payable for fifteen (15) years. In
the event that the Participant dies during the
fifteen (15) year SERP Benefit distribution period,
Participant's Beneficiary, as designated pursuant to
this Participation Agreement, will receive the
present value of the remaining SERP Benefit
distributions in a lump sum.
(g) Pre-Retirement Death Benefit Distribution. In the
event of Participant's death prior to Normal
Retirement, such Participant's Beneficiary(ies) shall
be entitled to a Pre-Retirement Death Benefit equal
to the present value (calculated as described in
8(d)) of the aggregate SERP Benefit payments,
irrespective of any vesting provisions herein. This
Pre-Retirement Death Benefit shall be distributed to
Participant's Beneficiary(ies) in a lump sum amount
as soon as administratively feasible upon Employer
notification.
(h) Disability. A Participant shall be one-hundred
percent (100%) vested in their Accrued SERP Benefit
upon Disability, as provided for herein. For purposes
of this Plan, a Participant shall be considered
disabled if the Participant is, by reason of any
medically determinable physical or mental impairment
which can be expected to result in death or can be
expected to last for a continuous period of not less
than 12 months, receiving income replacement benefits
for a period of not less than 3 months under
an accident and health plan covering employees of the
participant's employer, or as defined by law.
(i) Cancellation of Prior Deferred Compensation
Agreement. Participant has previously been a
Participant in the Employer's Deferred Compensation
dated as of April 1, 2001 ("Deferred Compensation
Plan"). Participant acknowledges that in
consideration of the terms and provisions hereof, he
hereby cancels, waives, exchanges and surrenders all
rights under Deferred Compensation Plan.
9. General Provisions

No benefit under the Participation Agreement shall be
subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation,
sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or
charge, and any such action shall be void for all
purposes of the Participation Agreement. No benefit

contracts, liabilities, engagements, or torts of any
person, nor shall it be subject to attachments or
other legal process for or against any person, except
to such extent as may be required by law.
