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 September 1, 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 (1) year of service for each calendar year a Participant is employed by the Employer, whether such service 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.
