WHEREAS,
the Bank and the Director are parties to a Director Indexed Fee Continuation
Plan Agreement effective as of January 7, 1997 (the “Original Agreement”),
which, in consideration of the Director’s faithful service to the Bank, is
intended to provide for the payment of a benefit by the Bank to the Director

1998.
WHEREAS,
the parties wish to further amend the Original Agreement to ensure that it
complies with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the Treasury
Regulations and other guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service adopted or
issued thereunder, and to restate the Original Agreement as

Therefore,
in consideration of the foregoing premises and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
Bank and the Director agree to amend and restate the Original Agreement to read
as follows:

E.
|
Pre-Retirement
Account:
|
A
Pre-Retirement Account shall be established as a liability reserve account on
the books of the Bank for the benefit of the Director. Prior to termination of
service or the Director's retirement (early or normal), such liability reserve
account shall be increased or decreased each year by an amount equal to the
annual earnings or loss for the year determined by the Index, less the Cost of
Funds Expense for that year.
F.
|
Index
Retirement Benefit:
|
The Index
Retirement Benefit for the Director for any year shall be equal to the excess of
the annual earnings (if any) determined by the Index for that year over the Cost
of Funds Expense for that year.
G.
|
Index:
|
The Index
for any year shall be the aggregate annual after-tax income from the life
insurance contract described hereinafter as defined by FASB Technical Bulletin
85-4.

Purchase Date:
If such
contracts of life insurance are actually purchased by the Bank then the actual
policies as of the dates they were purchased shall be used in calculations under
this Agreement. If such contracts of life insurance are not purchased or are
subsequently surrendered or lapsed, then the Bank shall receive annual policy
illustrations that assume the above described policies were purchased from the
above named insurance company(ies) on the effective date from which the increase
in policy value will be used to calculate the amount of the Index.
2
In either
case, references to the life insurance contract are merely for purposes of
calculating a benefit. The Bank has no obligation to purchase such life
insurance and, if purchased, the Director and his beneficiary(ies) shall have no
ownership interest in such policy and shall always have no greater interest in
the benefits under this Agreement than that of an unsecured general creditor of
the Bank.
H.
|
Cost of Funds
Expense:
|
The Cost
of Funds Expense for any year shall be calculated by taking the sum of the
amount of premiums set forth in the Indexed policies described above plus the
amount of any after-tax benefits paid to the Director pursuant to this Agreement
(Paragraph III hereinafter) plus the amount of all previous years after-tax
Costs of Funds Expense, and multiplying that sum by the average after-tax Cost
of Funds of the Bank's third quarter Call Report for the Plan Year as filed with
the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.

the seventh (7th)
month.

The Bank
may permit a subsequent change to the time and form of benefit

The Bank
shall have no obligation to set aside, earmark or entrust any fund or money with
which to pay its obligations under this Agreement. The Director, his
beneficiary(ies) or any successor in interest to him shall be and remain simply
a general creditor of the Bank in the same manner as any other creditor having a
general claim for matured and unpaid compensation.
5
The Bank
reserves the absolute right at its sole discretion to either fund the
obligations undertaken by this Agreement or to refrain from funding the same and
to determine the exact nature and method of such funding. Should the Bank elect
to fund this Agreement, in whole or in part, through the purchase of life
insurance, mutual funds, disability policies or annuities, the Bank reserves the
absolute right, in its sole discretion, to terminate such funding at any time,
in whole or in part. At no time shall the Director be deemed to have any lien or
right, title or interest in or to any specific funding investment or to any
assets of the Bank.
If the
Bank elects to invest in a life insurance, disability or annuity policy upon the
life of the Director, then the Director shall assist the Bank by freely
submitting to a physical exam and supplying such additional information
necessary to obtain such insurance or annuities.

|
CHANGE
OF CONTROL
|
If the
Director’s employment is involuntarily terminated following a Change of Control
and before his sixty-fifth (65th)
birthday, he shall receive the benefits described in Section III.A. as if he had
continuously served as a Bank director until his sixty-fifth (65th)
birthday. Such benefits shall be paid in the form of payment described in
Section III.A., with installments commencing within thirty (30) days of the
Director’s sixty-fifth (65th)
birthday and with subsequent installments paid within thirty (30) days following
each anniversary of his sixty-fifth (65th
birthday). If a Director described in the preceding sentence dies before having
received his entire Pre-Retirement Account, the unpaid balance of the
Pre-Retirement Account shall be paid in a lump sum to the beneficiary selected
by the Director and filed with the Bank (or, in the absence of such beneficiary,
to the personal representative of his estate) within sixty (60) days after the
Director’s death. In addition, no sale, merger or consolidation of the Bank
shall take place unless the new or surviving entity expressly acknowledges the
obligations under this Agreement and agrees to abide by its terms.

Arbitration for final arbitration. Said Board shall consist of one member
selected by the claimant, one member selected by the Bank, and the third member
selected by the first two members. The Board shall operate under any generally
recognized set of arbitration rules. The parties hereto agree that they and
