of the number of shares (the "SHARES") of Common Stock ("COMMON STOCK") of the
Company set forth opposite the Grantee's name below, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and the Plan. Except where the context otherwise

NAME OF GRANTEE: __________________________________________________
NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK GRANTED: _________________________
DATE OF GRANT: ____________________________________________________
2. FORFEITABLE SHARES AND RETAINABLE SHARES. All Shares shall be deemed to
be "FORFEITABLE SHARES" until the Company's right of Forfeiture, described in
Section 4, below, has expired (and the Grantee's right to retain such shares has
accrued) in accordance with the Stock Retention Schedule set forth in Section 3.
Forfeitable Shares shall be subject to Forfeiture as described in Section 4,
below. "RETAINABLE SHARES" are Shares held by the Grantee as to which the
Company's right of Forfeiture has expired (and the Grantee's right to retain has
accrued) based on the Stock Retention Schedule. All certificates representing
Forfeitable Shares shall remain in the possession of the Company until such
shares become Retainable Shares in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
The Company shall deliver to the Grantee a certificate representing the
Grantee's Retainable Shares promptly after such Shares become Retainable Shares.
3. RETAINABLE SHARES; STOCK RETENTION SCHEDULE. The Company's right of
Forfeiture shall expire and the Shares shall become Retainable Shares in
accordance with the following Stock Retention Schedule:
[FIVE YEAR VESTING AS FOLLOWS FOR ALL GRANTEES EXCEPT FOR XX. XXXXXXX AND XX.
XXXXXXXXXX]
(a) Twenty percent (20%) of the total number of Shares shall become
Retainable Shares on the first anniversary of the Date of Grant; and
(b) An additional twenty percent (20%) of the total number of Shares
shall become Retainable Shares on the second through fifth anniversaries of the
Date of Grant.
[THREE YEAR VESTING AS FOLLOWS FOR XX. XXXXXXX AND XX. XXXXXXXXXX]
(a) One third (rounded up to 33.34%) of the total number of Shares
shall become Retainable Shares on the first anniversary of the Date of Grant;
and
(b) An additional one third (33.33%) of the total number of Shares
shall become Retainable Shares on the second and third anniversaries of the Date
of Grant.
4. FORFEITURE OF SHARES.
(a) FORFEITURE. If for any reason the Grantee ceases to be employed
by the Company for any reason (other than the Grantee's death or Disability)
before the end of the term of the Stock Retention Schedule, then all Shares
which as of the date of such termination of employment constitute Forfeitable
Shares shall be forfeited to the Company ("FORFEITURE") without payment of any
consideration by the Company. There shall be no further accruals under the Stock
Retention Schedule (and no further Forfeitable Shares shall become Retainable
Shares) from and after the date of any such termination of employment.
(b) DEATH OR DISABILITY. In the event of the death or Disability (as
defined in the Plan) of the Grantee before the expiration of the Stock Retention
Schedule, then the vesting of the Shares under the Stock Retention Schedule
shall be automatically accelerated in full so that all of the Shares shall
become Retainable Shares, effective as of the date of death or Disability.
(c) FORFEITURE OF FORFEITABLE SHARES. The Grantee's rights in all
Forfeitable Shares shall terminate automatically on the date of the Grantee's
termination of employment, and the Company may thereupon cancel the certificate
or certificates representing such Forfeitable Shares on its books. In the event
that the certificates then being held by the Company under this Agreement
represent Retainable Shares as well as Forfeitable Shares, the Company shall
issue to the Grantee a replacement certificate for such Retainable Shares.
(d) NONTRANSFERABILITY OF FORFEITABLE SHARES. No Forfeitable Shares
may be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by
operation of law or otherwise). Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge,
hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any Forfeitable Shares, or upon the levy of
any attachment or similar process upon Forfeitable Shares, the Company shall
have a right of Forfeiture with respect to such Forfeitable Shares.
(e) OTHER LIMITATIONS. All Retainable Shares shall remain subject to
the other restrictions contained in this Agreement.
5. NO SPECIAL EMPLOYMENT RIGHTS. Nothing contained in the Plan or this
Agreement shall confer upon the Grantee any right with respect to the
continuation of his or her employment by the Company or interfere in any way
with the right of the Company at any time to terminate such employment or to
increase or decrease the Grantee's compensation.
6. RIGHTS AS A SHAREHOLDER. The Grantee shall have the rights of a
shareholder with respect to all of the Forfeitable Shares and the Retainable
Shares held by the Grantee (including, without limitation, any rights to vote
and to receive dividends or non-cash distributions with respect to such shares)
unless and until the Company exercises its right of Forfeiture as to any or all
of the Forfeitable Shares in accordance with Section 4.
7. CHANGE IN CONTROL.
(a) In the event a Change in Control occurs before the expiration of
the Stock Retention Schedule, then the Stock Retention Schedule shall be
automatically accelerated so that all Shares shall become Retainable Shares,
effective as of the effective time of the Change in Control (or such earlier
date as may be specified by the Committee).
(b) A "CHANGE IN CONTROL" shall mean the occurrence of any one of
the following events:
(i) If there has occurred a change in control which the
Company would be required to report in response to Item 5.01 of Form 8-K
promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934
Act"), or, if such regulation is no longer in effect, any regulations
promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the 1934 Act
which are intended to serve similar purposes;
(ii) When any "person" (as such term is used in Sections 13(d)
and 14(d)(2) of the 0000 Xxx) becomes a "beneficial owner" (as such term is
defined in Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the 1934 Act), directly or indirectly,
of securities of the Company or Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Bank (the "Bank") representing
twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the total number of votes that may be cast
for the election of directors of the Company or the Bank, as the case may be;
(iii) During any period of two consecutive years, individuals
who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board of Directors of the
Company, and any new director (other than a director designated by a person who
has entered into an agreement with the Company to effect a transaction described
in Subsection (ii), (iv) or (v) of this Section 7(b)) whose election by the
Board or nomination for election by the Company's stockholders was approved by a
vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office who
either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or
nomination for election was previously so approved, cease for any reason to
constitute at least a majority of the Board of Directors of the Company;
(iv) The stockholders of the Company approve a merger, share
exchange or consolidation ("merger or consolidation") of the Company with any
other corporation, other than (a) a merger or consolidation which would result
in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto
continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted
into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than 70% of the combined
voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity
outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation or (b) a merger or
consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization of the Company (or
similar transaction) in which no "person" (as hereinabove defined) acquires more
than 30% of the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding
securities; or
(v) The stockholders of the Company or the Bank approve a plan
of complete liquidation of the Company or the Bank or an agreement for the sale
or disposition by the Company or the Bank of all or substantially all of the
Company's or the Bank's assets.
8. AVAILABILITY OF TAX ELECTION. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company
has advised the Grantee of the possibility of making an election under Section
83(b) of the Code with respect to the Award of the Shares and has recommended
that the Grantee consult a qualified tax advisor regarding the desirability of
making such an election in light of the Grantee's individual circumstances.
