Share Award is to be issued, the Board or the Committee shall notify the
Recipient in writing of the grant of the Award, the number of Plan Shares
covered by the Award, and the terms upon which the Plan Shares subject to the

ARTICLE VII
EARNING AND DISTRIBUTION OF PLAN SHARES; VOTING RIGHTS
7.01 Earning Plan Shares; Forfeitures.
(a) General Rules. Subject to the terms hereof, Plan Share
Awards granted shall be earned by a Recipient at the rate determined by the
Board or the Committee pursuant to the provisions of Article VI hereof. If the
employment of an Employee or service as a Non-Employee Director is terminated
prior to the date such Plan Share Awards are fully vested for any reason (except
as specifically provided in subsections (b), (c) and (d) below), the Recipient
shall forfeit the right to any Shares subject to the Award which have not
theretofore been earned. In the event of a forfeiture of the right to any Shares
subject to an Award, such forfeited Shares shall become available for allocation
pursuant to Section 6.01 hereof as if no Award had been previously granted with
respect to such Shares. No fractional shares shall be distributed pursuant to
this Plan. In determining the number of Shares which are earned as of any
vesting date, if applicable, fractional shares shall be rounded down to the
nearest whole number, provided that such fractional Shares shall be aggregated
and distributed on the final date of vesting of the grant.
(b) Exception for Terminations Due to Death, Disability or
Retirement. Notwithstanding the general rule contained in Section 7.01(a), all
Plan Shares subject to a Plan Share Award held by a Recipient whose employment
with the Corporation or any Subsidiary or service as a Non-Employee Director
terminates due to death, Disability or Retirement shall be deemed earned as of
the Recipient's last day of employment with or service to the Corporation or any
Subsidiary Company (provided, however, no such accelerated vesting shall occur
in the event of Disability if a Recipient remains employed by at least one
member of the Employer Group) and shall be distributed as soon as practicable
thereafter.
(c) Exception for a Change in Control of the Corporation.
Notwithstanding the general rule contained in Section 7.01(a), all Plan Shares
subject to a Plan Share Award held by a Recipient shall be deemed to be earned
as of the effective date of a Change in Control of the Corporation.
(d) Revocation for Misconduct. Notwithstanding anything in
this Plan to the contrary, the Board may by resolution immediately revoke,
rescind and terminate any Plan Share Award or Performance Share Award or portion
thereof, previously awarded under this Plan, to the extent Plan Shares have not
been distributed hereunder to the Recipient, whether or not yet earned, in the
case of an Employee who is discharged from the employ of the Corporation or any
Subsidiary Company for cause (as hereinafter defined). Termination for cause
shall mean termination because of the Employee's personal dishonesty,
incompetence, willful misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty involving personal
profit, intentional failure to perform stated duties, willful violation of any
law, rule, or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses) or
final cease-and-desist order. Plan Share Awards granted to a Non-Employee
Director who is removed for cause pursuant to the Corporation's Certificate of
Incorporation and Bylaws or the Association's Charter and Bylaws shall terminate
as of the effective date of such removal.
5
7.02 Distribution of Dividends. Any cash dividends, stock dividends
or returns of capital declared in respect of each Plan Share (excluding
Performance Share Awards) (whether declared before or after the applicable Award
was granted) held by the Trust will be paid by the Trust, as soon as practicable
after the Trust's receipt thereof, to the Recipient on whose behalf such Plan
Share is then held by the Trust. Any cash dividends, stock dividends or returns
of capital declared in respect of each unvested Performance Share Award will be
held by the Trust for the benefit of the Recipient on whose behalf such
Performance Share Award is then held by the Trust (whether declared before or
after the applicable Performance Share Award was granted), and such dividends or
returns of capital, including any interest thereon, will be paid out
proportionately by the Trust to the Recipient thereof as soon as practicable
after the Performance Share Awards become earned.
7.03 Distribution of Plan Shares.
(a) Timing of Distributions: General Rule. Subject to the
provisions of Sections 7.03(b) and 7.05 hereof, Plan Shares shall be distributed
to the Recipient or his Beneficiary, as the case may be, as soon as practicable
after they have been earned.
(b) Timing: Exception for 10% Shareholders. Notwithstanding
Section 7.03(a) above, no Plan Shares may be distributed prior to the date which
is five years from the date of consummation of the Association's reorganization
from the mid-tier mutual holding company structure to the stock holding company
structure to the extent the Recipient or Beneficiary, as the case may be, would
after receipt of such Shares own in excess of 10% of the issued and outstanding
shares of Common Stock, unless specifically approved by two-thirds of the Board.
Any Plan Shares remaining undistributed solely by reason of the operation of
this Section 7.03(b) shall be distributed to the Recipient or his Beneficiary on
the date which is five years from the date of consummation of the Association's
reorganization from the mid-tier mutual holding company structure to the stock
holding company structure to stock form.
(c) Form of Distributions. All Plan Shares, together with any
Shares representing stock dividends, shall be distributed in the form of Common
Stock. One share of Common Stock shall be given for each Plan Share earned and
distributable. Payments representing cash dividends or returns of capital shall
be made in cash.
(d) Withholding. The Trustee may withhold from any cash
payment or Common Stock distribution made under this Plan sufficient amounts to
cover any applicable withholding and employment taxes, and if the amount of a
cash payment is insufficient, the Trustee may require the Recipient or
Beneficiary to pay to the Trustee the amount required to be withheld as a
condition of delivering the Plan Shares. The Trustee shall pay over to the
Corporation or any Subsidiary Company which employs or employed such Recipient
any such amount withheld from or paid by the Recipient or Beneficiary.
(e) Restrictions on Selling of Plan Shares. Plan Share Awards
may not be sold, assigned, pledged or otherwise disposed of prior to the time
that they are earned and distributed pursuant to the terms of this Plan. Upon
distribution, the Board or the Committee may require the Recipient or his
Beneficiary, as the case may be, to agree not to sell or otherwise dispose of
his distributed Plan Shares except in accordance with all then applicable
federal and state securities laws, and the Board or the Committee may cause a
legend to be placed on the stock certificate(s) representing the distributed
Plan Shares in order to restrict the transfer of the distributed Plan Shares for
such period of time or under such circumstances as the Board or the Committee,
upon the advice of counsel, may deem appropriate.
7.04 Voting of Plan Shares. After a Plan Share Award (other than a
Performance Share Award) has been made, the Recipient shall be entitled to
direct the Trustee as to the voting of the Plan Shares which are covered by the
Plan Share Award and which have not yet been earned and distributed to him
pursuant to Section 7.03, subject to rules and procedures adopted by the
Committee for this purpose. All shares of Common Stock held by the Trust which
have not been awarded under a Plan Share Award, shares subject to Performance
Share Awards which have not yet vested and shares which have been awarded as to
which Recipients have not directed the voting shall be voted by the Trustee in
its discretion.
6
7.05 Performance Share Awards
(a) Designation of Performance Share Awards. The Committee may
determine to make any Plan Share Award a Performance Share Award by making such
Plan Share Award contingent upon the achievement of a Performance Goal or any
combination of Performance Goals. Each Performance Share Award shall be
evidenced by a written agreement ("Award Agreement"), which shall set forth the
Performance Goals applicable to the Performance Share Award, the maximum amounts
payable and such other terms and conditions as are applicable to the Performance
Share Award. Each Performance Share Award shall be granted and administered to
comply with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code.
(b) Timing of Grants. Any Performance Share Award shall be
made not later than 90 days after the start of the period for which the
Performance Share Award relates and shall be made prior to the completion of 25%
of such period. All determinations regarding the achievement of any Performance
Goals will be made by the Committee. The Committee may not increase during a
year the amount of a Performance Share Award that would otherwise be payable
upon achievement of the Performance Goals but may reduce or eliminate the
payments as provided for in the Award Agreement.
(c) Restrictions on Grants. Nothing contained in this Plan
will be deemed in any way to limit or restrict the Committee from making any
Award or payment to any person under any other plan, arrangement or
understanding, whether now existing or hereafter in effect.
(d) Rights of Recipients. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, a Participant who receives a Performance Share Award payable in
Common Stock shall have no rights as a stockholder until the Common Stock is
issued pursuant to the terms of the Award Agreement.
(e) Transferability. A Participant's interest in a Performance
Share Award may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, or otherwise
encumbered.
(f) Distribution. No Performance Share Award or portion
thereof that is subject to the attainment or satisfaction of a condition of a
Performance Goal shall be distributed or considered to be earned or vested until
the Committee certifies in writing that the conditions or Performance Goal to
which the distribution, earning or vesting of such Award is subject have been
achieved.

ARTICLE IX
DEFERRED PAYMENTS
9.01 Deferral of Plan Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Plan, any Recipient may elect, with the concurrence of the Committee and
consistent with any rules and regulations established by the Committee, to defer
the receipt of Plan Shares subject to Awards granted hereunder.
9.02 Timing of Election. The election to defer the receipt of any
Plan Shares must be made no later than the last day of the calendar year
preceding the calendar year in which the Recipient would otherwise have an
unrestricted right to receive such Plan Shares. Deferrals of eligible Plan
Shares shall only be allowed for those Plan Shares scheduled to vest while the
Recipient is in active service with the Corporation or one of its Subsidiary
8
Companies. Any election to defer the receipt of eligible Plan Shares shall be
irrevocable as long as the Recipient remains an Employee or a Non-Employee
Director of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiary Companies.
9.03 Plan Share Award Deferral. The deferral of Plan Shares may be
elected by a Recipient subject to the rules and regulations established by the
Committee. Upon the vesting of such Plan Shares, the Committee shall credit to a
deferred stock award account established for the Recipient (which may be part of
an existing deferred compensation trust account) a number of deferred shares or
share units equivalent in value to the number of deferred Plan Shares multiplied
by the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock. Deferred shares or share units
shall be valued at the Fair Market Value on the date the deferred Plan Shares
vest. Subsequent to the lapsing of all restrictions, the deferred shares or
share units shall be valued at the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock.
Deferred shares or share units shall accrue dividends at the rate paid upon the
Common Stock credited in the form of additional deferred share units. Deferred
share units shall be distributed in shares of Common Stock or cash, at the
discretion of the Committee, upon the Recipient's termination of employment or
service as a director or at such other date(s), as may be approved by the
Committee, over a period of no more than ten (10) years.
9.04 Accelerated Distributions. The Committee may, at its sole
discretion, allow for the early payment of an Recipient's deferred stock award
account in the event of an "unforeseeable emergency" or in the event of the
death or Disability of the Recipient. An "unforeseeable emergency" means an
unanticipated emergency caused by an event beyond the control of the Recipient
that would result in severe financial hardship if the distribution were not
permitted. Such distributions shall be limited to the amount necessary to
sufficiently address the financial hardship. Any distributions under this
provision shall be consistent with the Code and the regulations promulgated
thereunder. Additionally, the Committee may use its discretion to cause stock
award accounts to be distributed when continuing the program is no longer in the
best interest of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiary Companies.
9.05 Assignability. No rights to deferred stock award accounts may
be assigned or subject to any encumbrance, pledge or charge of any nature except
that a Recipient may designate a beneficiary pursuant to any rules established
by the Committee.
9.06 Unfunded Status. No Recipient or other person shall have any
interest in any fund or in any specific asset of the Corporation or one of its
Subsidiary Companies by reason of any amount credited pursuant to the provisions
hereof. Any amounts payable pursuant to the provisions hereof shall be paid from
the general assets of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiary Companies and no
Recipient or other person shall have any rights to such assets beyond the rights
afforded general creditors of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiary
Companies. However, the Corporation or one of its Subsidiary Companies shall
have the right to establish a reserve, trust or make any investment for the
purpose of satisfying the obligations created under this Article IX of the Plan;
provided, however, that no Recipient or other person shall have any interest in
such reserve, trust or investment.

of Common Stock issued subsequent to the effective date of the Plan resulting
from any split, subdivision or consolidation of shares or other capital
adjustment, the payment of a stock dividend or other increase or decrease in
such shares effected without receipt or payment of consideration by the
