NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as

of Health Financial in, to and under the Employment Agreement, and Employee consents to such
assignment. Employee acknowledges and agrees that since December 23, 2001, Health Financial's
obligation to make salary payments to Executive has been satisfied by Unified Trust.
2. Unified Trust hereby assumes and agrees to perform and be responsible for all
agreements, undertakings and obligations of Health Financial arising under the Employment Agreement,
and Employee consents to such assumption.
3. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that this Agreement shall serve as an
amendment to the Employment Agreement and that (i) for all purposes of the Employment Agreement,
Unified Trust shall be substituted for Health Financial as a party to the Employment Agreement and for
every reference to Health Financial (other than references in the first paragraph of the Employment
Agreement), (ii) Unified Trust shall be entitled to all rights and benefits that Health Financial was entitled
under the Employment Agreement including, among other things, the covenants of Employee set forth in

Employee hereby acknowledges, accepts, consents to and ratifies (i) the $100,000 per annum reduction in

reduction in his Annual Base Salary ($400,000 per annum to $300,000 per annum), which reduction was

not constitute a breach of the Employment Agreement. Employee and Unified Trust hereby acknowledge
and agree that for all purposes of the Employment Agreement, Employee's Annual Base Salary shall now
be $300,000 per annum. Employee and Unified Trust further acknowledge and agree that Employee's
Annual Base Salary shall remain $300,000 until such time as Employee provides written notice to Unified
Trust that his Annual Base Salary shall be increased, which rate of salary may be increased by Employee up
to $500,000 per annum (any such increase to be effective upon receipt by Unified Trust of such written
notice from Employee); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, in no event shall Employee be entitled to increase his Annual
Base Salary pursuant to this Section 4 before January 1,2003. Employee's Annual Base Salary also may be
increased from time to time by the board of directors of Unified Trust.

conduct of Unified Trust's affairs by notice served by a Federal or state banking or securities regulatory
authority under the National Bank Act, the Federal Deposit Insurance Act or any other Federal or state
banking or securities statute, Unified Trust's obligations under the Employment Agreement shall be
suspended as of the date of service, unless stayed by appropriate proceedings. If the charges in the notice
are dismissed, or the suspension or temporary prohibition is otherwise removed or terminated, Unified Trust
shall (i) pay Employee all of the compensation withheld while its obligations under the Employment
Agreement were suspended and (ii) reinstate all of its obligations that were suspended. If Employee is
permanently removed or prohibited from participating in the conduct of Unified Trust's affairs by an order
issued by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the
Securities and Exchange Commission or any other Federal or state banking or securities regulator, all
obligations of Unified Trust under the Employment Agreement shall terminate as of the effective date
of the order. All obligations under the Employment Agreement may be terminated, except to the extent
determined that continuation of the Employment Agreement is necessary for the continued operation of

authority, at the time the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation enters into an agreement to provide
assistance to or on behalf of Unified Trust under the authority contained in the Federal Deposit Insurance
Act; or (ii) by the Comptroller of the Currency or any other Federal or state bank regulatory authority, at the
time the Comptroller of the Currency or his or her designee approves a supervisory merger to resolve
problems related to operation of Unified Trust or when Unified Trust is determined by the Comptroller of
the Currency or his or her designee to be in an unsafe or unsound condition; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, Employee
shall be paid, at his then existing rate, for any services that he performs for Unified Trust after any such
termination of the Employment Agreement and Employee shall be paid the Annual Noncompete Payments
(as defined in the Employment Agreement) to the extent the Comptroller of the Currency or his or her
designee shall seek to enforce the provisions of Section 5 of the Employment Agreement following any such
termination of the Employment Agreement.
6. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that this Agreement shall serve as an
amendment to Section 7.1 of the Employment Agreement, which shall now provide that notices to Unified
