The Executive shall be relieved of any responsibilities with the Company, and his employment relationship with the Company will cease and terminate, effective upon the Termination Date. The Executive resigns any and all officer, director and other positions with the Company effective upon the Termination Date.

4. Severance Benefit.

(a) Termination of Executive’s Employment by Company. Subject to the receipt of the Release contemplated by Section 11 hereof and the expiration of any applicable waiting periods, and unless otherwise provided in Section 4(h), the Company shall provide the Executive with the benefits set forth in this Section 4 upon any termination of the Executive’s employment which occurs during the Term for any reason except the following:

by the Company for Cause;

Subject to the receipt of the Release contemplated by Section 11 hereof and the expiration of any applicable waiting periods, and unless otherwise provided in Section 4(h), the Company shall provide the Executive with the benefits set forth in this Section 4 upon any termination by the Executive of his employment for Good Reason which occurs during the Term.

(c) Payment. Any amounts due to Executive pursuant to Section 4 shall be paid in one lump sum within twenty business days following receipt by the Company of the Release contemplated by Section 11 hereof and the expiration of any applicable waiting periods. If the Executive is entitled to a payment pursuant to Section 4(a) or Section 4(b), then the Company shall pay to the Executive in cash or cash equivalent funds an amount equal to:

	(i)		the sum of:

			(A) Executive’s base salary through the Termination Date and any bonus amounts that have become payable, to the extent not theretofore paid or deferred;

			(B) a pro rata portion of Executive’s annual bonus for the fiscal year in which Executive’s Termination Date occurs (reduced by any amounts previously paid for the fiscal year in which Executive’s Termination Date occurs). For purposes of this Agreement, this amount shall be equal to the Bonus Amount multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the fiscal year in which the Termination Date occurs through the Termination Date and the denominator of which is three hundred sixty-five (365); and

			(C) any accrued vacation pay, but only to the extent not already paid;

			plus

	(ii)		the sum of (A) two times Executive’s highest annual rate of base salary during the twelve-month period immediately prior to Executive’s Termination Date, (B) two times Executive’s Bonus Amount, and (C) two times the highest amount shown in the “All Other Compensation” column of the Summary Compensation Table set forth in the Company’s most recent proxy statement as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission; provided, however, that if Executive’s Termination Date is within two years of Executive’s 65th Birthday, such sum shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the number of full months from the Termination Date to Executive’s 65th Birthday, and the denominator of which is equal to 24.

(d) Insurance Coverage. If Executive is entitled to payments pursuant to Section 4, then for the two year period following termination of employment, the Company will maintain in full force and effect for the continued benefit of Executive each employee welfare benefit plan and each employee pension benefit plan (as such terms are defined in the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended) in which Executive was entitled to participate immediately prior to the date of his termination, unless an essentially equivalent and no less favorable benefit is provided by a subsequent employer of the Company. If the terms of any employee welfare benefit plan or employee pension benefit plan of the Company do not permit continued participation by Executive, the Company will arrange to provide to Executive a benefit substantially similar to, and no less favorable than, the benefit he was entitled to receive under such plan at the end of the period of coverage.

(e) SERP Accrual. Within twenty days following receipt by the Company of the Release contemplated by Section 11 hereof and the expiration of any applicable waiting periods, the Company shall provide Executive with two additional years of service credit under all non-qualified retirement plans and excess benefit plans in which the Executive participated as of his Termination Date; provided, however, that if Executive’s Termination Date is within two years of Executive’s 65th Birthday, the Company shall continue to provide Executive with the additional service credit described in this Section 4(e) only for the number of full months equal to the difference between Executive’s Termination Date and the Executive’s 65th Birthday.

(f) Withholding Taxes. The Company may withhold from all payments due to Executive (or his beneficiary or estate) hereunder all taxes that, by applicable federal, state, local or other law, the Company is required to withhold therefrom.

(g) Other Employee Benefits. Any benefits (other than severance) payable to the Executive due to the termination of his employment shall be paid to the Executive in accordance with the benefit payment provisions of the applicable employee benefit plan.

(h) Change in Control. If (i) during the twelve month period following a Change of Control, the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for any reason other than Cause or, (ii) during the ninety day period following a Change of Control, the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Executive for any reason other than death or Disability, and subject in each instance to the receipt of the Release contemplated by Section 11 hereof and the expiration of any applicable waiting periods, in lieu of the payments, if any, which Executive may otherwise be entitled pursuant to Section 4(c) above, Executive shall be paid an amount equal to the product of 2.99 times Executive’s “base amount” as defined in Section 280G(b) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and any proposed or final regulations thereunder. Said sum shall be paid in one lump sum within twenty business days following receipt by the Company of the Release contemplated by Section 11 hereof and the expiration of any applicable waiting periods. Such payment shall be in lieu of any other future payments which Executive would be otherwise entitled to receive under this Agreement. In addition, the Company shall extend the two year period during which it will provide certain benefits to Executive pursuant to Section 4(d) for an additional year.

	(i)		Gross-Up Payment.

	(A)		In the event it shall be determined that any payment, benefit or distribution (or combination thereof) by the Company or one or more trusts established by the Company for the benefit of its employees, to or for the benefit of Executive (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or otherwise) (a “Payment”) is subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any interest or penalties are incurred by Executive with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and penalties, hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”), Executive shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a “Gross-Up

			Payment”) in an amount such that after payment by Executive of all taxes (including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes), including, without limitation, any income taxes (and any interest and penalties imposed with respect thereto) and the Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the Payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4(i), if it shall be determined that Executive is entitled to a Gross-Up Payment, but that the Payment does not exceed 110% of the greatest amount that could be paid to Executive without giving rise to any Excise Tax (the “Safe Harbor Amount”), then no Gross-Up Payment shall be made to Executive and the amounts payable under this Agreement shall be reduced so that the Payment, in the aggregate, is reduced to the Safe Harbor Amount. The reduction of the amounts payable hereunder, if applicable, shall be made by first reducing the payments under Section 4(h).

	(B)		All determinations required to be made under this Section 4(i), including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made by an independent accounting firm selected by the Company (the “Accounting Firm”) which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and Executive within ten business days of the receipt of notice from Executive that there has been a Payment, or such earlier time as is requested by the Company; provided that for purposes of determining the amount of any Gross-Up Payment, Executive shall be deemed to pay federal income tax at the highest marginal rates applicable to individuals in the calendar year in which any such Gross-Up Payment is to be made and deemed to pay state and local income taxes at the highest effective rates applicable to individuals in the state or locality of Executive’s residence or place of employment in the calendar year in which any such Gross-Up Payment is to be made, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes that can be obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes, taking into account limitations applicable to individuals subject to federal income tax at the highest marginal rates. All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company. Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined pursuant to this Section 4(i), shall be paid by the Company to Executive (or to the appropriate taxing authority on Executive’s behalf) when the applicable tax is due. If the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable by Executive, it shall so indicate to Executive in writing. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and Executive. As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code, it is possible that the amount of the Gross-Up Payment determined by the Accounting Firm to be due to (or on behalf of) Executive was lower than the amount actually due (“Underpayment”). In the event that the Company exhausts its remedies pursuant to Section 4(i)(C) and Executive thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive.

(C)

Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the payment by the Company of any Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable but no later than ten business days after Executive is informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the Company of the nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the thirty day period following the date on which it gives such notice to the Company (or such shorter period ending on the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due). If the Company notifies Executive in writing prior to the expiration of such period that it desires to contest such claim, Executive shall (i) give the Company any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to such claim, (ii) take such action in connection with contesting such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time to time, including, without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by the Company, (iii) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order to effectively contest such claim and (iv) permit the Company to participate in any proceedings relating to such claim; provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest and shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs and expenses. Without limitation on the foregoing provisions of this Section 4(i)(C), the Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at its sole option, either direct Executive to pay the tax claimed and xxx for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Company shall determine; provided, further, that if the Company directs Executive to pay such claim and xxx for a refund, the Company shall advance the amount of such payment to Executive, on an interest-free basis, and shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to such advance or with respect to any imputed income with respect to such advance; provided, further, that if Executive is required to extend the statute of limitations to enable the Company to contest such claim, Executive may limit this extension solely to such contested amount. The Company’s control of the contest shall be limited to issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder and Executive shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority.

(D)

If, after the receipt by Executive of an amount paid or advanced by the Company pursuant to this Section 4(i), Executive becomes entitled to receive any refund with respect to a Gross-Up Payment, Executive shall (subject to the Company’s complying with the requirements of Section 4(i)(C)) promptly pay to the Company the amount of such refund received (together with any interest paid or credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto). If, after the receipt by Executive of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 4(i)(C), a determination is made that Executive shall not be entitled to any refund with respect to such claim and the Company does not notify Executive in writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration of thirty days after such determination, then such advance shall be forgiven and shall not be required to be repaid and the amount of such advance shall offset, to the extent thereof, the amount of the Gross-Up Payment required to be paid.

5. Notice of Termination. Any termination of the Executive’s employment for the reasons set forth in Section 4(a) (except for reason of the Executive’s death) or by the Executive for the reasons set forth in Section 4(b) shall be communicated by written “Notice of Termination” to the other party, delivered in a manner provided in Section 17(f) hereof. Any “Notice of Termination” given by the Executive pursuant to Section 4(b), or given by the Company in connection with a termination as to which the Company believes it is not obligated to provide the Executive with the benefits set forth in Section 4, shall indicate the specific provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for such termination.

6. Non-Solicitation. The Executive agrees that during the Term and for a period of two years following the termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason, the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, individually or jointly, (i) solicit in any manner, seek to obtain or service, or accept the business of any party which is a customer of the Company as of the date of the Agreement, for banking, trust, and investment services of the type handled by the Company, (ii) solicit in any manner, seek to obtain or service, or accept the business of any party which was a prospective customer of the Company for banking, trust, and investment services of the type handled by the Company, (iii) request or advise any customers or suppliers of the Company to terminate, reduce, limit or change their business or relationship with the Company, or (iv) induce, request or attempt to influence any employee of the Company to terminate his or her employment with the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “customer” shall mean a person or entity who is a customer of the Company at the time of the Executive’s termination of employment or with whom the Executive had direct contact on behalf of the Company at any time during the period of the Executive’s employment with the Company. The term “prospective customer” shall mean a person or entity who was the direct target of sales or marketing activity by the Executive or whom the Executive knew was a target of the Company during the one (1) year period preceding the Executive’s termination of employment or, in the event the Executive has been employed by the Company less than one (1) year at the Executive’s termination of employment, during the period of the Executive’s employment with the Company.

7. Covenant Not to Compete or be Employed by Competitors.

(a) The Executive hereby understands and acknowledges that, by virtue of his position with the Company, he obtained advantageous familiarity and personal contacts with the Company’s customers, wherever located, and the business, operations and affairs of the Company. Accordingly, during the term of this Agreement and for a period of two years following the termination of the Executive’s employment (A) which results in the payment of severance benefits set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement or (B) by the Company for cause as provided in Section 4(a)(i) hereof, the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly:

	(i)		as owner, officer, director, stockholder, investor, proprietor, organizer, or otherwise, engage in a trade or business competitive with that of the Company; provided, however that the Executive is not restricted from owning less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding securities of any class of any entity that are listed on a national securities exchange or trade in the over-the-counter market; or

	(ii)		as employee, agent, representative, consultant, independent contractor, or otherwise, perform services for or render assistance to or use or permit the Executive’s name to be used in connection with any other business, partnership, proprietorship, firm, or competitive entity, organization, or corporation, which services or assistance are competitive with the business, products, or services of the Company.

(b) The restrictions contained in this paragraph upon the activities of the Executive shall be limited to the geographic area which is a fifty (50) mile radius from the principal office of the Executive.

(d) Notwithstanding the above, in the event of termination of the Executive’s employment which occurs during the Term due to:

	(i)		the Disability of the Executive pursuant to Section 4(a)(ii),

	(ii)		the Retirement by the Executive pursuant to Section 4(a)(iii), or

	(iii)		the resignation or termination of employment by the Executive (other than for Good Reason) pursuant to Section 4(a)(iv),

the Company may, at its option, elect to pay the Executive the severance benefits set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement and, immediately upon written notice of such election by the Company to the Executive, the provisions of this Section 7 shall be applicable to the Executive for a period of two years following the termination of the Executive’s employment.

8. Confidential Information.

(a) The Executive agrees (i) that all Confidential Information is confidential and is the property of the Company, (ii) not to disclose or give possession of any Confidential Information to any person except authorized representatives of the Company, (iii) not to directly or indirectly use any Confidential Information (A) to compete against the Company, or (B) for the Executive’s own benefit or for the benefit of any person other than the Company, and (iv) to promptly return to the Company following the termination of the Executive’s employment, at the Company’s main office, all Confidential Information and other property of the Company, including but not limited to, computers, computer disks, electronic data without regard to the means of storage, credit cards, identification cards, badges, keys, and any other physical or personal property belonging to the Company, and any copies, duplicates, reproductions or excerpts of any of the foregoing, even if down loaded or copied to the Executive’s personal computer, personal data assistant or other mechanism used for storing information. This Section 6 shall not preclude the Executive from disclosure or use of information known generally in the public domain other than through a breach of this Agreement or from disclosure required by law or court order.

(b) The Executive understands, acknowledges and agrees that, during the course of his employment with the Company, he gained and will continue to gain, as a key employee of the Company, substantial information regarding and competitive knowledge of and familiarity with Confidential Information of the Company and that if the Confidential Information were disclosed or the Executive engaged in competition against the Company, the Company would suffer irreparable damage and injury. The Confidential Information derives substantial economic value, among other reasons, from not being known or readily ascertainable by proper means by others who could obtain economic value from its disclosure. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company uses reasonable means to maintain the secrecy of the Confidential Information.

(c) For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” means any and all (a) materials, records, data, documents, writings and information (whether printed, computerized, on disk or otherwise) relating or referring in any manner to the business, operations, affairs, policies, strategies, techniques, products, product developments or customers of the Company which are not generally known or available to the business, trade or industry of the Company or individuals who work therein or which are not otherwise in the public domain, in either case not through a breach of this Agreement, and (b) trade secrets of the Company (as defined in Indiana Code 24-2-3-2, as amended, or any successor statute).

9. Remedies.

(a) The Executive agrees that the Company will suffer irreparable damage and injury and will not have an adequate remedy at law in the event of any breach by the Executive of any provision of the Restrictive Covenants (as defined below in Section 10 hereof). Accordingly, in the event of a breach or of a threatened or attempted breach by the Executive of the Restrictive Covenants, in addition to all other remedies to which the Company is entitled under law, in equity, or otherwise, the Company shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief and no bond or other security shall be required in that connection. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that in the event of termination of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever, the Executive can obtain other engagements or employment of a kind and nature similar to that performed for the Company and that the issuance of an injunction to enforce the provisions of the Restrictive Covenants will not prevent the Executive from earning a livelihood. The Restrictive Covenants are essential terms and conditions to the Company entering into this Agreement, and shall be construed as independent of any other provision in this Agreement, or any other agreement between the Executive and the Company. The existence of any claim or cause of action the Executive has against the Company, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of the Restrictive Covenants.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any written agreement between Executive and Company, if after Executive’s termination of employment he violates any provision of Sections 6, 7 or 8 of this Agreement, as determined by the Board of Directors of The National Bank of Indianapolis Corporation in its sole discretion, Executive, his permitted assigns, or his executors, administrators, representatives, heirs, disbributees, devisees, or legatees (the Beneficiary), as the case may be, must repay to the Company any payments made to Executive pursuant to this Agreement. If the Board of Directors of The National Bank of Indianapolis Corporation makes such determination, it will notify Executive, his permitted assigns, or the Beneficiary, and, within 30 days of receipt of such notice, Executive, his permitted assigns, or the Beneficiary, as the case may be, will repay such benefit to The National Bank of Indianapolis Corporation.

10. Periods of Noncompliance and Reasonableness of Periods. The restrictions and covenants contained in Sections 6 and 7 hereof (the “Restrictive Covenants”) shall be deemed not to run during all periods of noncompliance, the intention of the parties hereto being to have such restrictions and covenants apply for the full periods specified in Sections 6 and 7 hereof following the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company. The Company and the Executive acknowledge and agree that the restrictions and covenants contained in Sections 6 and 7 hereof are reasonable in view of the nature of the business in which the Company is engaged and the Executive’s advantageous knowledge of and familiarity with the business, operations, affairs and customers of the Company. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if the scope of any restriction or covenant contained in Sections 6 and 7 hereof is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be too broad to permit enforcement of such restriction or covenant to its full extent, then such restriction or covenant shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law.

11. Release.

(a) For and in consideration of the foregoing covenants and promises made by the Company, and the performance of such covenants and promises, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Executive agrees to release the Company prior to the receipt of any benefits under Section 4 hereof by the Executive. Such release to be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

(b) The “Company and its agents,” as used in this Agreement, means the Company, its subsidiaries, affiliated, or related corporations or associations, their predecessors, successors and assigns, and the directors, officers, managers, supervisors, employees, representatives, servants, agents and attorneys of the entities above described, and all persons acting, through, under or in concert with any of them.

12. No Reliance. The Executive represents and acknowledges that in executing this Agreement, he does not rely and has not relied upon any representation or statement by the Company and its agents, other than the statements which are contained within this Agreement.

13. No Admissions. This Agreement shall not in any way be construed as an admission by the Company and its agents of any acts of discrimination or other improper conduct whatsoever against the Executive or any other person, and the Company specifically disclaims any liability to or discrimination against the Executive or any other person on the part of itself, its employees or its agents.

14. Suspensions. If Executive is suspended and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the conduct of Company’s affairs by a notice served under section 8(e)(3) or (g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. § 1818(e)(3) and (g)(1)), Company’s obligations under this Agreement shall be suspended as of the date of service, unless stayed by appropriate proceedings. If the charges in the notice are dismissed, Company shall (i) pay Executive all or part of the compensation withheld while its obligations under this Agreement were suspended and (ii) reinstate (in whole or in part) any of its obligations which were suspended.

15. Removal. If Executive is removed and/or permanently prohibited from participating in the conduct of Company’s affairs by an order issued under section 8(e)(4) or (g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. § 1818(e)(4) or (g)(1)), all obligations of Company under this Agreement shall terminate as of the effective date of the order, but vested rights of the parties shall not be affected.

16. Regulatory Oversight.

(a) All obligations under this Agreement may be terminated except to the extent determined that the continuation of the Agreement is necessary for the continued operation of Company by order of any state or federal banking regulatory agency with supervision of the Company, unless stayed by appropriate proceedings, and Company shall be under no obligation to perform any of its obligations hereunder if it is informed in writing by any state or federal banking regulatory agency with supervision of the Company that performance of its obligations would constitute an unsafe or unsound banking practice.

(b) If Company is in default (as defined in section 3(x)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act), all obligations under this Agreement shall terminate as of the date of default, but this provision shall not affect any vested rights of the parties.

All provisions of this Agreement are severable from one another, and the unenforceability or invalidity of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that should any judicial body interpreting this Agreement deem any provision to be unreasonably broad in time, territory, scope, or otherwise, the parties intend for the judicial body, to the greatest extent possible, to reduce the breadth of the provision to the maximum legally allowable parameters rather than deeming such provision totally unenforceable or invalid.

(f) Notice. Any notice, request, instruction, or other document to be given hereunder to any party shall be in writing and delivered by hand, telegram, facsimile transmission, registered or certified United States mail, return receipt requested, or other form of receipted delivery, with all expenses of delivery prepaid, as follows:
