(subject to clause (b) below) are not in competition with the Business
of the Employer and which will not require any services on the part of
the Executive in their operation or affairs and in which his
participation is solely that of an investor;
(b) purchasing securities in any corporation, the securities

(c) participating in civic and professional affairs and
organizations and conferences, preparing or publishing papers or books
or teaching so long as the

President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank

engaging in them.
3. TERM AND TERMINATION.
----------------------
3.1 TERM. This Agreement shall remain in effect for the Term.
----
Commencing with the first day of the Initial Term, the Term shall renew each day
such that the Term remains a three-year term from day-to-day thereafter unless
any party gives written notice to the others of its or his intent that the
automatic renewals shall cease. In the event such notice of non-renewal is
properly given, this Agreement and the Term shall expire on the third (3rd)
anniversary of the thirtieth (30th) day following the date such written notice
is received.
3.2 TERMINATION. During the Term, the employment of the Executive
-----------
under this Agreement may be terminated only as follows:
3.2.1 By the Employer:
(a) For Cause, upon written notice to the Executive pursuant
to Section 1.4.1 hereof, in which event the Employer shall have no
further obligation to the Executive except for the payment of any
amounts due and owing under Section 4 on the effective date of
termination;
(b) Without Cause at any time, provided that the Employer
shall give the Executive thirty (30) days' prior written notice of its
intent to terminate, in which event the Employer shall be required to
continue to meet its obligations to the Executive under Section 4.1
for six (6) months following the termination; or
(c) Upon the Disability of the Executive at any time,
provided that the Employer shall give the Executive thirty (30) days'
prior written notice of its intent to terminate, in which event, for
six (6) months following the date of termination or until the
Executive begins receiving payments under the Company's long-term
disability policy, whichever occurs first, the Employer shall be
required to continue to meet its obligations under Sections 4.1.
3.2.2 By the Executive:
(a) For Cause, upon written notice to the Employer pursuant
to Section 1.4.2 hereof, in which event the Employer shall be required
to continue to meet its obligations under Section 4.1 for six (6)
months; or
(b) Without Cause, provided that the Executive shall give the
Employer sixty (60) days' prior written notice of his intent to
terminate, in which event the Employer shall have no further
obligation to the Executive except for payment of any amounts due and
owing under Section 4 on the effective date of the termination.
5
3.2.3 At any time upon mutual, written agreement of the parties.
3.2.4 Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
the Term shall end automatically upon the Executive's death.
3.3 CHANGE OF CONTROL. If the Executive terminates his employment with
-----------------
the Employer under this Agreement for Cause or the Employer terminates
Executive's employment without Cause within six (6) months following a Change in
Control, the Executive, or in the event of his subsequent death, his designated
beneficiaries or his estate, as the case may be, shall receive, as liquidated
damages, in lieu of all other claims, a severance payment equal to one (1) times
the Executive's then current Base Salary, to be paid in full on the last day of
the month following the date of termination. In no event shall the payment(s)
described in this Section 3.3 exceed the amount permitted by Section 280G of the
Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the "Code"). Therefore, if the aggregate
present value (determined as of the date of the Change of Control in accordance
with the provisions of Section 280G of the Code) of both the severance payment
and all other payments to the Executive in the nature of compensation which are
contingent on a change in ownership or effective control of the Company or the
Bank or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company
or the Bank (the "Aggregate Severance") would result in a "parachute payment,"
as defined under Section 280G of the Code, then the Aggregate Severance shall
not be greater than an amount equal to 2.99 multiplied by Executive's "base
amount" for the "base period, " as those terms are defined under Section 280G of
the Code. In the event the Aggregate Severance is required to be reduced
pursuant to this Section 3.3, the Executive shall be entitled to determine which
portions of the Aggregate Severance are to be reduced so that the Aggregate
Severance satisfies the limit set forth in the preceding sentence.
Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, if the Executive may exercise
his right to terminate employment under this Section 3.3 or under Section
3.2.2(a), the Executive may choose which provision shall be applicable.
3.4 EFFECT OF TERMINATION. Upon termination of the Executive's
-----------------------
employment hereunder for any reason, the Employer shall have no further
obligations to the Executive or the Executive's estate with respect to this
Agreement, except for the payment of any amounts accrued or otherwise due and
owing under Section 4 hereof and unpaid as of the effective date of the
termination of employment and payments set forth in Sections 3.2.1(b) and (c),
Section 3.2.2(a), or Section 3.3 as applicable.
4. COMPENSATION. The Executive shall receive the following salary and
------------
benefits during the Term, except as otherwise provided below:

------------
rate of $100,000 (the "Base Salary"). The obligation for payment of Base Salary
shall be apportioned between the Company and the Bank as they may agree from
time to time in their sole discretion. The Executive's Base Salary shall be
reviewed by the Board of Directors of the Company and the Bank at least
annually, and the Executive shall be entitled to receive annually an increase in
such amount, if any, as may be determined by the Board of Directors of the
Company or the Bank based on their respective evaluation of the Executive's
performance. Base Salary shall be payable in accordance with the Employer's
normal payroll practices.

(1/3) increments, commencing on the first anniversary of the Effective Date and
continuing for the next two successive anniversaries; provided, however, that

upon the Executive's satisfaction of performance goals determined by the Board
of Directors of the Company.

to reimburse the Executive for:
(a) reasonable and necessary business expenses (including travel)

accordance with reimbursement policies from time to time adopted by the Employer
and in sufficient detail to comply with rules and regulations promulgated by the
Internal Revenue Service.
