4.01 Role of the Committee. The Plan shall be administered and
interpreted by the Board of Directors of the Bank or a Committee appointed by
said Board, which shall consist of not less than two non- employee members of
the Board, which shall have all of the powers allocated to it in this and other
sections of the Plan. All persons designated as members of the Committee shall
be "Non-Employee Directors" within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("1934 Act"). The interpretation and
construction by the Committee of any provisions of the Plan or of any Plan Share
Award granted hereunder shall be final and binding. The Committee shall act by
vote or written consent of a majority of its members. Subject to the express
provisions and limitations of the Plan, the Committee may adopt such rules,
regulations and procedures as it deems appropriate for the conduct of its
affairs. The Committee shall report its actions and decisions with respect to
the Plan to the Board at appropriate times, but in no event less than one time
per calendar year. The Committee shall recommend to the Board one or more
persons or entity to act as Trustee in accordance with the provision of this
Plan and Trust and the terms of Article VIII hereof.
4.02 Role of the Board. The members of the Committee and the Trustee
shall be appointed or approved by, and will serve at the pleasure of the Board.
The Board may in its discretion from time to time remove members from, or add
members to, the Committee, and may remove, replace or add Trustees. The Board
shall have all of the powers allocated to it in this and other sections of the
Plan, may take any action under or with respect to the Plan which the Committee
is authorized to take, and may reverse or override any action taken or decision
made by the Committee under or with respect to the Plan, provided, however, that
the Board may not revoke any Plan Share Award already made except as provided in
Section 7.01(b) herein.
4.03 Limitation on Liability. No member of the Board, the Committee or
the Trustee shall be liable for any determination made in good faith with
respect to the Plan or any Plan Share Awards granted. If a member of the Board,
Committee or any Trustee is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or
3
investigative, by any reason of anything done or not done by him in such
capacity under or with respect to the Plan, the Parent and the Bank shall
indemnify such member against expenses (including attorney's fees), judgments,
fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or
her in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he or she acted in
good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in the best
interests of the Parent, the Bank and its Subsidiaries and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct
was unlawful. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall
the Bank take any actions with respect to this Section 4.03 which is not in

---------
CONTRIBUTIONS; PLAN SHARE RESERVE
5.01 Amount and Timing of Contributions. The Board of Directors of the
Bank shall determine the number of shares of Common Stock or the amount of cash
to be contributed by the Bank to the Trust established under this Plan. Such
contributions to the Trust shall be delivered to the Trustee at the time of such
contribution. No contributions to the Trust by Participants shall be permitted
except with respect to amounts necessary to meet tax withholding obligations.
5.02 Initial Investment. Any funds held by the Trust prior to
investment in the Common Stock shall be invested by the Trustee in such
interest-bearing account or accounts at the Bank as the Trustee shall determine
to be appropriate.
5.03 Maximum Plan Share Reserve; Investment of Trust Assets. The Trust
shall purchase Common Stock in an amount not greater than 100% of the Trust's
cash assets, after providing for any required withholding as needed for tax
purposes, provided, however, that the Trust shall not distribute more than
50,000 shares of Common Stock in the aggregate pursuant to Awards under the
Plan. The Trustee may accept the transfer of Common Stock held by the Bank in
other trust accounts, purchase shares of Common Stock in the open market or, in
the alternative, may purchase authorized but unissued shares of the Common Stock
or treasury shares from the Parent sufficient to fund the Plan Share Reserve.
5.04 Effect of Allocations, Returns and Forfeitures Upon Plan Share
Reserves. Upon the allocation of Plan Share Awards under Sections 6.02 and 6.05,
or the decision of the Committee to return Plan Shares to the Parent, the Plan

allocated or returned. Any Shares subject to an Award which are not earned
because of forfeiture by the Participant pursuant to Section 7.01 shall be added
to the Plan Share Reserve.
Article VI
---------
ELIGIBILITY; ALLOCATIONS
6.01 Eligibility. Eligible Participants may receive Plan Share Awards
within the sole discretion of the Committee. Directors who are not otherwise
Employees shall receive Plan Share Awards pursuant to Section 6.05.
4
6.02 Allocations. The Committee will determine which Eligible
Participants will be granted Plan Share Awards and the number of Shares covered
by each Award, provided, however, that in no event shall any Awards be made
which will violate the Charter or Bylaws of the Bank or its Parent or
Subsidiaries or any applicable federal or state law or regulation. In the event
Shares are forfeited for any reason or additional Shares are purchased by the
Trustee, the Committee may, from time to time, determine which of the Eligible
Participants will be granted Plan Share Awards to be awarded from forfeited
Shares. In selecting those Eligible Participants to whom Plan Share Awards will
be granted and the number of shares covered by such Awards, the Committee shall
consider the prior and anticipated future position, duties and responsibilities
such individuals, the value of their prior and anticipated future services to
the Bank and its Subsidiaries, and any other factors the Committee may deem
relevant. All actions by the Committee shall be deemed final, except to the
extent that such actions are revoked by the Board. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, in no event shall any Participant receive Plan Share
Awards in excess of 25% of the aggregate Plan Shares authorized under the Plan.
6.03 Form of Allocation. As promptly as practicable after a
determination is made pursuant to Section 6.02 or Section 6.05 that a Plan Share
Award is to be made, the Committee shall notify the Participant 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 award may be earned. The date on
which the Committee makes its award determination or the date the Committee so
notifies the Participant shall be considered the date of grant of the Plan Share
Awards as determined by the Committee. The Committee shall maintain records as
to all grants of Plan Share Awards under the Plan.
6.04 Allocations Not Required. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
at Sections 6.01, 6.02 or 6.05, no Eligible Participant shall have any right or
entitlement to receive a Plan Share Award hereunder, such Awards being at the
sole discretion of the Committee and the Board, nor shall the Eligible
Participants as a group have such a right. The Committee may, with the approval
of the Board (or, if so directed by the Board) return all Common Stock in the
Plan Share Reserve to the Bank at any time, and cease issuing Plan Share Awards.
6.05 Awards to Directors. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, as of the Effective Date, a Plan Share Award consisting of 3,500 Plan
Shares shall be awarded to each Director of the Bank that is not otherwise an
Employee. Such Plan Share Award shall be earned and non-forfeitable at the rate
of one- fourth as of the one year anniversary of the Effective Date and an
additional one-fourth following each of the next three successive years during
such periods of continued service as a Director or Director Emeritus. Further,
such Plan Share Award shall be immediately 100% earned and non-forfeitable in
the event of the death or Disability of such Director or Director Emeritus, or
upon a Change in Control of the Bank or Parent. Subsequent to the Effective
Date, Plan Share Awards may be awarded to newly elected or appointed Directors
of the Bank by the Committee, provided that total Plan Share Awards granted to
non-employee Directors of the Bank shall not exceed 25,000 Plan Share Awards in
the aggregate under the Plan.

EARNINGS AND DISTRIBUTION OF PLAN SHARES; VOTING RIGHTS
7.01 Earnings Plan Shares; Forfeitures.
(a) General Rules. Unless the Committee shall specifically state to the
contrary at the time a Plan Share Award is granted, Plan Shares subject to an
Award shall be earned and non-forfeitable by a Participant at the rate of
one-fourth of such Award following one year after the granting of such Award,
and an additional one-fourth following each of the next three successive years;
provided that such Participant remains an Employee, Director, Director Emeritus
or Subsidiary director during such period.
(b) Revocation for Misconduct. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the Board shall, by resolution, immediately revoke, rescind and
terminate any Plan Share Award, or portion thereof, previously awarded under
this Plan, to the extent Plan Shares have not been delivered thereunder to the
Participant, whether or not yet earned, in the case of a Participant who is
discharged from the employ or service of the Parent, Bank or a Subsidiary for
Cause, or who is discovered after termination of employment or service to have
engaged in conduct that would have justified termination for Cause. A
determination of Cause shall be made by the Board within its sole discretion.
(c) Exception for Terminations Due to Death or Disability.
Notwithstanding the general rule contained in Section 7.01(a) above, all Plan
Shares subject to a Plan Share Award held by a Participant whose employment or
service with the Parent, Bank or a Subsidiary terminates due to death or
Disability, shall be deemed earned and nonforfeitable as of the Participant's
last date of employment or service with the Parent, Bank or Subsidiary and shall
be distributed as soon as practicable thereafter.
(d) Exception for Termination after a Change in Control.
Notwithstanding the general rule contained in Section 7.01 above, all Plan
Shares subject to a Plan Share Award held by a Participant shall be deemed to be
immediately 100% earned and non-forfeitable in the event of a Change in Control
of the Parent or Bank and shall be distributed as soon as practicable
thereafter.
7.02 Payment of Dividends on Plan Share Awards. A holder of a Plan
Share Award, whether or not earned, shall also be entitled to receive an amount
equal to any cash dividends declared and paid with respect to shares of Common
Stock represented by such Plan Share Award between the date the relevant Plan
Share Award was granted to such Participant and the date the Plan Shares are
distributed. Such cash amounts shall be paid as compensation to the Participant
by the Trust or the Bank within 30 days of the applicable dividend payment date,
less applicable tax withholding, if applicable.
7.03 Distribution of Plan Shares.
(a) Timing of Distributions: General Rule. Except as provided in
Subsections (d) and (e) below, Plan Shares shall be distributed to the
Participant or his Beneficiary, as the case may be, as soon as practicable after
they have been earned. No fractional shares shall be distributed.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, at the discretion of the
Committee, Plan Shares may be distributed prior to such Shares being 100%
earned, provided that such Plan Shares shall contain a restrictive legend
detailing the applicable limitations of such shares with respect to transfer and
forfeiture.
6
(b) Form of Distribution. 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. Payments
representing cash dividends (and earnings thereon) shall be made in cash.
Notwithstanding anything within the Plan to the contrary, upon a Change in
Control whereby substantially all of the Common Stock of the Parent shall be
acquired for cash, all Plan Shares associated with Plan Share Awards, together
with any shares representing stock dividends associated with Plan Share Awards,
shall be, at the sole discretion of the Committee, distributed as of the
effective date of such Change in Control, or as soon as administratively
feasible thereafter, in the form of cash equal to the consideration received in
exchange for such Common Stock represented by such Plan Shares.
(c) Withholding. The Trustee may withhold from any payment or
distribution made under this Plan sufficient amounts of cash or shares of Common
Stock necessary to cover any applicable withholding and employment taxes, and if
the amount of such payment or distribution is not sufficient, the Trustee may
require the Participant or Beneficiary to pay to the Trustee the amount required
to be withheld in taxes as a condition of delivering the Plan Shares. The
Trustee shall pay over to the Parent, Bank or Subsidiary which employs or
employed such Participant any such amount withheld from or paid by the
Participant or Beneficiary.
(d) Timing: Exception for 10% Shareholders. Notwithstanding Subsection
(a) above, no Plan Shares may be distributed to the extent the Participant or
Beneficiary, as the case may be, would after receipt of such Shares own in
excess of ten percent (10%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Common
Stock, unless such action is approved in advance by a majority vote of
disinterested directors of the Board of the Parent.
(e) Regulatory Exceptions. No Plan Shares shall be distributed,
however, unless and until all of the requirements of all applicable law and
regulation shall have been fully complied with as determined by the Board upon
advice of legal counsel.
7.04 Voting of Plan Shares. After a Plan Share Award has become earned
and non-forfeitable, the Participant shall be entitled to direct the Trustee as
to the voting of the Plan Shares which are associated with the Plan Share Award
and which have not yet been distributed 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 as to which Participants are not entitled to
direct, or have not directed, the voting of such Shares, shall be voted by the
Trustee as directed by the Committee.

the Trustee shall pay to the Bank earnings of the Trust attributable to

8.04 Earnings. All earnings, gains and losses with respect to Trust
assets shall be allocated in accordance with a reasonable procedure adopted by
the Committee, to bookkeeping accounts for Participants or to the general
account of the Trust, depending on the nature and allocation of the assets
generating such earnings, gains and losses. In particular, any earnings on cash

Shares available for issuance pursuant to the Plan Share Awards and the number

shall remain valid and in effect until they have been earned and paid, or by
their terms expire or are forfeited.
9.09 Tax Status of Trust. It is intended that the Trust established
