The Bank and the Executive executed the Executive Supplemental Retirement Income Agreement effective as of September 28, 1999 (the “Agreement”).

The undersigned hereby amend the Agreement for the purpose of bringing the Agreement into compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, the following changes shall be made:

Subsection 1.14(a) of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following:

1.14

(a) “Disability” means the Executive: (i) is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months; or (ii) is, by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months, receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than three (3) months under an accident and health plan covering employees or directors of the Bank. Medical determination of Disability may be made by either the Social Security Administration or by the provider of an accident or health plan covering employees or directors of the Bank provided that the definition of “disability” applied under such disability insurance program complies with the requirements of the preceding sentence. Upon the request of the plan administrator, the Executive must submit proof to the plan administrator of the Social Security Administration’s or the provider’s determination.

Subsection 1.25 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following:

1.25	“Timely Election” means the Executive has made an election to change the form of benefit payment(s) by filing with the Administrator a Notice of Election to Change the Form of Payment (Exhibit C of this Agreement). In the case of benefits payable from the Accrued Benefit Account, such election:

(a)

In the case of benefits payable from the Retirement Income Trust Fund, such election may be made at any time.

The following Subsections 1.26 and 1.27 shall be added to the Agreement immediately following Subsection 1.25.

1.26

“Termination of Employment” means the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Bank for reasons other than death or Disability. Whether a Termination of Employment takes place is determined in accordance with the requirements of Code Section 409A and related Treasury guidance or Regulations based on the facts and circumstances surrounding the termination of the Executive’s employment and whether the Bank and the Executive intended for the Executive to provide significant services for the Bank following such termination. A Termination of Employment will not have occurred if:

(a)

the Executive continues to provide services as an employee of the Bank at an annual rate that is twenty percent (20%) or more of the services rendered, on average, during the immediately preceding three (3) full calendar years of employment (or, if employed less than three (3) years, such lesser period) and the annual remuneration for such services is twenty percent (20%) or more of the average annual remuneration earned during the final three (3) full calendar years of employment (or, if less, such lesser period), or

The Executive’s employment relationship will be treated as continuing intact while the Executive is on military leave, sick leave, or other bona fide leave of absence if the period of such leave of absence does not exceed six (6) months, or if longer, so long as the Executive’s right to reemployment with the Bank is provided either by statute or by contract. If the period of leave exceeds six (6) months and there is no right to reemployment, a Termination of Employment will be deemed to have occurred as of the first date immediately following such six (6) month period.

1.27

“Specified Employee” means a key employee (as defined in Section 416(i) of the Code without regard to paragraph 5 thereof) of the Bank if any stock of the Bank is publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise, as determined by the Administrator based on the twelve (12) month period ending each December 31 (the “identification period”).

The Executive’s Accrued Benefit Account (if applicable), measured as of the Executive’s Benefit Date, shall be annuitized (using the Interest Factor) into monthly installments and shall be payable for the Payout Period. Such benefit payments shall commence on the Executive’s Benefit Commencement Date. In the event the Executive dies at any time after the Benefit Date, but prior to commencement or completion of all the payments due and owing hereunder, the Bank shall pay to the Executive’s Beneficiary the same monthly installments (or a continuation of such monthly installments if they have already commenced) for the balance of months remaining the Payout Period.

The third paragraph of Subsection 3.1(b) of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following:

The balance of the Executive’s Accrued Benefit Account (if applicable), measured as of the date selected by the Executive in his Timely Election, shall be paid to the Executive in a lump sum on such date. In the event the Executive dies after becoming eligible for such payment (upon attainment of his benefit age), but before the actual payment is made, his Beneficiary shall be entitled to receive the lump sum benefit in accordance with this Subsection 3.1(b) within thirty (30) days of this date the Administrator receives notice of the Executive’s death.

The third paragraph of Subsection 4.1(a) of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following:

The Executive’s Accrued Benefit Account (if applicable), measured as of the Executive’s death, shall be annuitized (using the Interest Factor) into monthly installments and shall be payable to the Executive’s Beneficiary for the Payout Period. Such benefit payments shall commence within thirty (30) days of the date the Administrator receives notice of the Executive’s death.

Subsection 5.1 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following:

5.1

Voluntary or Involuntary Termination of Employment Other Than for Cause.

The following Subsections 5.3 and 5.4 shall be added to the Agreement immediately following Subsection 5.2:

5.3

Restriction on Timing of Distributions. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if the Executive is considered a Specified Employee at Termination of Employment, the provisions of this Subsection 5.3 shall govern distributions from the Accrued Benefit Account hereunder. Distributions from the Accrued Benefit Account that are made due to a Termination of Employment occurring while the Executive is a Specified Employee shall not be made during the first six (6) months following Termination of Employment. Rather, any distribution from the Accrued Benefit Account which would otherwise be paid to the Executive during such period shall be accumulated and paid to the Executive in a lump sum on the first day of the seventh month following the Termination of Employment. All subsequent distributions from the Accrued Benefit Account shall be paid in the manner specified.

5.4

Distributions Upon Income Inclusion Under Section 409A of the Code. If any amount is required to be included in income by the Executive prior to receipt due to a failure of this Agreement to meet the requirements of Code Section 409A, the Executive may petition the Administrator for a distribution of that portion of the Accrued Benefit Account that is required to be included in the Executive’s income. Upon the grant of such a petition, which grant shall not be unreasonably withheld, the Bank shall distribute to the Executive immediately available funds in an amount equal to the portion of the Accrued Benefit Account required to be included in income as a result of the failure of this Agreement to meet the requirements of Code Section 409A, within ninety (90) days of the date when the Executive’s petition is granted.

(b) Disability Benefit – Supplemental.

Furthermore, in the event of the Executive’s death after any benefit(s) have become payable pursuant to this Subsection 6.1, the Bank shall make a direct, lump sum payment to the Executive’s Beneficiary in an amount equal to the sum of all remaining Contributions (or Phantom Contributions) set forth in Exhibit A.
