Agreement pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the members
of the Board.
(b) For all purposes of this Agreement, the term "Remaining Un-

event of any such terminations shall be determined under this
Agreement.

Bank, having such power, authority and responsibility and performing such
duties as are prescribed by or under the By-Laws of the Bank and as are
customarily associated with such position. The Commercial Loan Officer

leave of absence) to the business and affairs of the Bank and shall use his
best efforts to advance the interests of the Bank.
Section 4. Annual Salary.
In consideration for the services to be rendered by the Commercial Loan
Officer hereunder, the Bank shall pay to him a salary at an initial annual
rate of EIGHTY-SEVEN THOUSAND, ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY-NINE DOLLARS
($87,149.00), payable in approximately equal installments in accordance
with the Bank's customary payroll practices for senior Commercial Loan
Officers. The Board shall review the Commercial Loan Officer's annual rate
of salary at such times, as it deems appropriate, but not less frequently

increase in such annual rate of salary.
Section 5. Employee Benefit Plans and Programs.
During the Employment Period, the Commercial Loan Officer shall be treated

receive benefits under any and all qualified or non-qualified retirement,
pension, savings, profit-sharing or stock bonus plans, any and all group
life, health (including hospitalization, medical and major medical),
dental, accident and long-term disability insurance plans, and any other
employee benefit and compensations plans (including, but not limited to,
any incentive compensation plans or programs, stock options and
appreciation rights plans and restricted stock plans) as may from time to
time be maintained by, or cover similarly situated employees of, the Bank,
in accordance with the terms and conditions of such employee benefit plans
and programs and compensations plans and programs and consistent with the
Bank's customary practices.
Section 6. Termination of Employment with Severance Benefits.
(a) The Commercial Loan Officer shall be entitled to the severance
benefits described in section 6(b) in the event that;
(i) his employment is terminated by the Bank during the
Employment Period for any reason other than for "cause"
as defined in section 7(b) or
(ii) the Commercial Loan Officer voluntarily resigns following
a "Change of Control" (as such term is defined in section
10(a) hereof) in the manner set forth in section 10(b)
hereof.
(b) Upon the termination of the Commercial Loan Officer's
employment at the Bank under the circumstances described in
section 6(a)(i) or (ii) of this Agreement, the Bank shall have
no further obligations under this Agreement, other than to pay
or to provide the Commercial Loan Officer with:
(i) the compensation he has earned, but which is unpaid, as
of the date of the termination of his employment with the
Bank, such payment to be made at the time and in the
manner prescribed by law applicable to the payment of
wages but in no event later than thirty (30) days after
termination of employment;
(ii) the benefits, if any, to which he is entitled as a former
employee under the employee benefit plans and programs
and compensation plans and programs maintained by the
Bank for employees;
(iii) continued group life, health (including hospitalization,
medical and major medical), dental, accident and long-
term disability coverage plans under the plans and
programs maintained by the Bank for similarly situated
employees until the earlier to occur of:
(A) the date the Commercial Loan Officer first becomes
eligible for such benefit coverage plans under
plans or programs maintained by a subsequent
employee or
(B) the date the Remaining Un-expired Employment Period
terminates;
(iv) within thirty (30) days following his termination of
employment with the Bank, a lump sum payment, in an
amount equal to the present value of the salary that the
Commercial Loan Officer would have earned if he had
continued working for the Bank during the Remaining Un-
expired Employment Period at the highest annual rate of
salary achieved during that portion of the Employment
Period which is prior to the Commercial Loan Officer's
termination of employment with the Bank, where such
present value is to be determined using a discount rate
equal to the applicable short-term federal rate
prescribed under section 1274(d) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986 ("Code"), compounded using the compounding
period corresponding to the Bank's regular payroll
periods for its officers, such Agreement in respect of
the period following any such termination; provided,
however, that in the event the Officer's employment with
the Bank terminated following a Change of Control (as
such term is defined in section 10(a) hereof) under the
circumstances described in section 6(a)(ii), then, for
purposes of calculating the lump sum amount payable to
the Officer under this subsection 6(b)(iv), the
"Remaining Un-expired Employment Period" shall be deemed
to be a thirty-six consecutive month period.
Section 7. Termination without Additional Bank Liability.
Except as provided below, the Bank (and its affiliates) will have no
liability to Commercial Loan Officer in the event that the Commercial Loan
Officer's employment with the Bank shall terminate during the Employment
Period on account of:
(a) a voluntary resignation by the Commercial Loan Officer, other
than a voluntary resignation by the Commercial Loan Officer
that occurs within ninety (90) days after the effective date of
a Change of Control;
(b) a determination that the Commercial Loan Officer is eligible
for long-term disability benefits under the Bank's long-term
disability insurance program or, if there is no such program,
under the federal Social Security Act;
(c) the death of the Commercial Loan Officer; or
(d) the discharge of the Commercial Loan Officer for "cause,"
which, for purposes of the Agreement shall mean personal
dishonesty, willful misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty
involving personal profit, intentional failure to perform
stated duties, willful violation of any banking law, rule or
regulation, conviction of a felony or final cease and desist
order issued in response to conduct of the Commercial Loan
Officer determined to be substantially deleterious to the Bank,
or any material breach of this Agreement, in each case as
measured against standards generally prevailing at the relevant
time in the savings and community banking industry;
then the Bank (and its affiliates) shall have no further obligations under
this Agreement, other than the payment to the Commercial Loan Officer (or,
in the event of his death, to his estate) of his earned but unpaid salary
as of the date of the termination of his employment, and the provision of
such other benefits, if any, to which he is entitled as a former employee
under the employee benefit plans and programs and compensation plans and
programs maintained by, or covering employees of , the Bank.
(e) for purposes of section 7(d), no act or failure to act, on the
part of the Commercial Loan Officer, shall be considered
"willful" unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by the
Officer in bad faith or without reasonable belief that the
Officer's action or omission was in the best interests of the
Bank and its affiliates. Any act, or failure to act, based
upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by
the Board or based upon the written advice of counsel for the
Bank shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to
be done, by the Commercial Loan Officer in good faith and in
the best interests of the Bank. The cessation of employment of
the Commercial Loan Officer shall not be deemed to be for
"cause" within the meaning of section 7(d) unless and until
there shall have been delivered to the Officer a copy of a
resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of three-
fourths of the non-employee members of the Board at a meeting
of the Board called and held for such purpose (after reasonable
notice is provided to the Commercial Loan Officer and the
Officer is given an opportunity, together with counsel, to be
heard before the Board), finding that, in the good faith
opinion of the Board, Officer is guilty of the conduct
described in section 7(d) above, and specifying the particulars
thereof in detail.
Section 8. Covenant Not To Compete.
In the event that the Commercial Loan Officer's employment with the Bank
terminates prior to the expiration of the Employment Period, then for a
period of one (1) year following the date of his termination of employment
with the Bank (or, if less, for the Remaining Un-expired Employment
Period), the Commercial Loan Officer shall not, without the written consent
of the Bank, become an officer, employee, consultant, director or trustee
of any competitor (as herein defined) if in this capacity he would be
working for a competitor originating commercial loans or residential
mortgage loans in Middlesex County or in any other county where a main or a
branch office of the Bank is located on the date of the Commercial Loan
Officer's termination of employment. For this purpose, a "competitor" is
any savings bank, cooperative bank, credit union, savings and loan
association, savings and loan holding company, bank or bank holding
company, or any direct or indirect subsidiary or affiliate of any such
entity. This section 8 shall not apply if the Commercial Loan Officer's
employment is terminated with cause or due to death, or a voluntary or
involuntary termination following a "Change of Control" as defined in
section 10(a) hereof.
Section 9. Confidentiality.
Unless he obtains the prior written consent of the Bank, the Commercial
Loan Officer shall keep confidential and shall refrain from using for the
benefit of himself, or any person or entity other than the Bank or any
entity which is a subsidiary of the Bank or of which the Bank is a
subsidiary, any material document or information obtained from the Bank, or
from its parent or subsidiaries, in the course of his employment with any
of them concerning their properties, operations or business (unless such
document or information is readily ascertainable from public or published
information or trade sources or has otherwise been made available to the
public through no fault of his own) until the same ceases to be material
(or becomes so ascertainable or available); provided, however, that nothing
in this section 9 shall prevent the Commercial Loan Officer, with or
without the Bank's consent, from participating in or disclosing documents
or information in connection with any judicial or administrative
investigation, inquiry or proceeding to the extent that such participation
or disclosure is required under applicable law.
Section 10. Termination Upon or Following a Change of Control.
(a) A Change of Control of the Bank ("Change of Control") shall be
deemed to have occurred upon the happening of any of the
following events:
(i) approval by the stockholders of the Bank of a transaction
that would result in the reorganization, merger or
consolidation of the Bank, respectively, with one or more
other persons, other than a transaction following which:
(A) at least 51% of the equity ownership interest of
the entity resulting from such transaction are
beneficially owned (within the meaning of Rule
13d-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended "Exchange Act") in
substantially the same relative proportions by

by any person or by any persons acting in concert, or
approval by the stockholders of the Bank of any
transaction which would result in such an acquisition;
(iii) a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Bank, or
approval by the stockholders of the Bank of a plan for

not belong to any of the following groups:
(A) individuals who were members of the Board of the
Bank on the date of this Agreement; or
(B) individuals who first became members of the Board
of the Bank after the date of this Agreement

(I) upon election to serve as a member of the
Board of the Bank by affirmative vote of
three-quarters of the members of such Board,
of a nominating committee thereof, in office
at the time of such first election; or
(II) upon election by the stockholders of the Bank
to serve as a member of the Board of the
Bank, but only if nominated for election by
affirmative vote of three-quarters of the
members of the Board of the Bank, or of a
nominating committee thereof, in office at
the time of such first nominating;
provided, however, that such individual's election or
nomination did not result from an actual or threatened

Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act) or
other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or
consents (within the meaning of Rule 14a-11 of Regulation

as a result of any acquisition of securities or assets of the Bank, the
Company, or a subsidiary of either of them, by the Bank, the Company, or a
subsidiary of either of them, or by any employee benefit plan maintained by
any of them. For purposes of this section 10(a), the term "person" shall

Exchange Act.
