PREAMBLE

This Agreement is executed this 18 day of June, 2015 (the “Execution Date”) by Level One Bank, a Michigan state chartered commercial bank (hereinafter sometimes referred as the “Company” or “Employer”), and Executive (the “Executive”), evidencing and sometimes referred to as the “Level One Bank Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan for the Executive” or the or this “Plan.”

WHEREAS, Employer desires to retain the valuable services of Executive by providing the Plan; and

WHEREAS, The Employer believes that a non-qualified benefit plan such as the Plan would serve the Employer’s best business interests to retain the services of the Executive; and

WHEREAS, The Employer therefore adopts this Level One Bank Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan for the Executive, constituting a nonqualified deferred compensation plan which is unfunded and constitutes a “top-hat” plan under ERISA.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Plan is hereby established as follows:

ARTICLE I - INTRODUCTION

1.1                               Name

The name of this Plan is the “Level One Bank Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan for the Executive”.

1.2                               Effective Date

The effective date of the Plan is January 1, 2015 (the “Effective Date”).

1.3                               Purpose

The purpose of the Plan is to provide deferred income for the Executive.

This Plan is intended to be a non-qualified unfunded “top-hat” plan under applicable provisions of the Code and ERISA, and thus the Plan is an unfunded plan of deferred compensation maintained for a member of a select group of management or highly compensated employees pursuant to sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA, and an unfunded plan of deferred compensation under the Code.

1.4                               Interpretation

Wherever appropriate, pronouns of any gender shall be deemed synonymous, as shall singular and plural pronouns. Headings of Articles and Sections are for convenience of reference only, and are not to be considered in the construction or interpretation of the Plan. The Plan shall be interpreted and administered so as to give effect to its purpose as expressed in Section 1.3 and to qualify as a non-qualified, unfunded plan of deferred compensation in compliance with the requirements of Code section 409A, and the Treasury regulations and IRS pronouncements thereunder, as in effect from time-to-time (collectively, “Section 409A”).

Any claim not granted or denied within such time period shall be deemed to have been denied. If the claim is denied in whole or in part, the Committee shall adopt a written opinion, using language calculated to be understood by the Claimant, setting forth:

1.              The specific reason or reasons for such denial;

2.              The specific reference to pertinent provisions of this Plan on which such denial is based;

Such request must be addressed to the Secretary of the Company, at its then principal place of business. The Claimant or his duly authorized representative may, but need not, review the pertinent documents and submit issues and comments in writing for consideration by the Company.

D.            Review of Decision - Within sixty (60) days after the Secretary’s receipt of a request for review, he or she will review the Committee’s determination. After considering all materials presented by the Claimant, the Secretary will render a written opinion, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant, setting forth the specific reasons for the decision and containing specific references to the pertinent provisions of this Plan on which the decision is based. If special circumstances require that the sixty (60) day time period be extended, the Secretary will so notify the Claimant and shall render the decision as soon as possible, but no later than one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of the request for review. Any claim not granted or denied within such time period will be deemed to have been denied.

6.9                               Litigation

ARTICLE VIII - GENERAL PROVISIONS

8.1                               Applicable Law

Except insofar as the law has been superseded by applicable federal law, Michigan law shall govern the construction, validity and administration of this Plan as created by this Agreement. This Plan is intended

9

be a non-qualified unfunded plan of deferred compensation and any ambiguities in its construction shall be resolved in favor of an interpretation which will affect this intention.

8.2                               Benefits Not Transferable or Assignable

A.            Benefits under the Plan shall not be subject to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge and any attempt to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or charge such benefits shall be void, nor shall any such benefits be in any way liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of any person entitled to them. This section shall also apply to the creation, assignment or recognition of a right to any benefit payable with respect to a Participant pursuant to a domestic relations order, including a qualified domestic relations order under Section 414(p) of the Code.

B.            An Employer may bring an action for a declaratory judgment if a Participant’s Named Beneficiary or any beneficiary’s benefits hereunder are threatened to be attached by an order from any court. The Employer may seek such declaratory judgment in a court of competent jurisdiction to:

1.              Determine the proper recipient or recipients of the benefits to be paid under the plan;

2.              Protect the operation and consequences of the Plan for the Employer and all Participants; and

3.              Request any other equitable relief the Employer in its sole judgment may feel appropriate.

Benefits which may become payable during the pendency of such an action shall, at the sole discretion of the Employer, either be:

1.              Paid into the court as they become payable, or

2.              Held in a separate account subject to the court’s final distribution order. Any such delay shall comply in all respects with Code Section 409A.

C.            Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement or Plan to the contrary, the Participant’s (and, if applicable, Beneficiary’s) rights in respect of the Agreement and Plan shall be no greater than that of a general unsecured creditor of the Employer.

8.3                               Not an Employment Contract

The Plan is not and shall not be deemed to constitute a contract between the Employer or any Affiliate and any Participant, or to be a consideration for, or an inducement to, or a condition of, the employment of any employee. Nothing contained in the Plan shall give or be deemed to give the Executive the right to remain in the employment of the Employer or any Affiliate or to interfere with the right to be retained in the employ of the Employer, any legal or equitable right against the Employer or an Affiliate, or to interfere with the right of the Employer or any Affiliate to discharge or retire the Executive at any time. It is expressly understood by the parties that the Plan relates to the payment of deferred compensation for the Participant’s services, and is not intended to be an employment contract. Nothing in the Agreement or Plan modifies the Employment Agreement.

8.4                               Notices

A.            Any notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to be sufficiently given at the time when delivered personally or when mailed by certified or registered first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to either party hereto as follows:

If to the Company:

Level One Bank

▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇

▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇

Or another address communicated by the Company to the Participant in future Plan communications.

If to the Participant:

At his last known address, as indicated by the records of the Employer, or to such changed address as such parties may have fixed by notice. However, any notice of change of address shall be effective only upon receipt.

10

B.            Any communication, benefit payment, statement of notice addressed to the Participant or Named Beneficiary at the last post office address as shown on the Employer’s records shall be binding on the Participant or Named Beneficiary, as applicable, for all purposes of the Plan. The Employer, and a Trustee, if applicable, shall not be obligated to search for any Participant or Named Beneficiary beyond sending a registered letter to such last known address.

8.5          Severability

The Plan as contained in this document constitutes the entire agreement with the Participant. If any provision of the Plan shall for any reason be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of the Plan shall be carried into effect, unless the effect thereof would be to materially alter or defeat the purposes of the Plan.

8.6          Participant is General Creditor with No Rights to Assets

A.            The payments to the Participant or his Named Beneficiary or any other beneficiary hereunder shall be made from assets that shall continue, for all purposes, to be a part of the general, unrestricted assets of the Employer; no person shall have any interest in any such assets by virtue of the provisions of this Plan. The Employer’s obligation under this Plan is solely and exclusively the Employer’s obligation and shall be an unfunded and unsecured promise to pay money in the future. No other company, bank, person or other entity shall in any way be responsible or otherwise accountable for such obligation. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive a benefit from the Employer under the provisions hereof, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Employer; no such person shall have nor acquire any legal or equitable right, or claim in or to any property or assets of the Employer. The Employer shall not be obligated under any circumstances to fund obligations under this Agreement.

B.            An Employer, at its sole discretion, may acquire and/or set aside assets or funds to support its financial obligations under this Plan. No such acquisition or set-aside shall impair or derogate from the Employer’s direct obligation to a Participant or Named Beneficiary under this Plan. However, no Participant or Named Beneficiary shall be entitled to receive duplicate payments of any benefits provided under the Plan because of the existence of such assets or funds.

C.            In the event that, in its discretion, the Employer purchases an asset(s) or insurance policy or policies insuring the life of the Participant to allow the Employer to recover the cost of providing benefits, in whole or in part hereunder, neither the Participant, Named Beneficiary nor any other beneficiary shall have any rights whatsoever therein in such assets or in the proceeds therefrom. The Employer shall be the sole owner and beneficiary of any such assets or insurance policies and shall possess and may exercise all incidents of ownership therein. No such asset or policy, policies or other property shall be held in any Trust either for the Participant or any other person nor as collateral security for any obligation of the Employer hereunder. The Participant’s participation in the acquisition of such assets or policy or policies shall not be a representation to the Participant, Named Beneficiary or any other beneficiary of any beneficial interest or ownership in such assets, policy or policies. The Participant may be required to submit to medical examinations, supply such information and to execute such documents as may be required by any insurance carriers as a pre-condition to participation in and any benefit under the Plan, or continuing participation in and any benefit under the Plan.

8.7          No Trust Relationship Created

Nothing contained in this Plan shall be deemed to create a trust of any kind or create any fiduciary relationship between the Employer and the Participant, Named Beneficiary, other beneficiaries of the Participant, or any other person claiming through the Participant. Funds allocated hereunder shall continue for all purposes to be part of the general assets and funds of the Employer and no person other than the Employer shall, by virtue of the provisions of this Plan, have any beneficial interest in such assets and funds. The creation of a grantor trust under the Code to hold such assets or funds for the administrative convenience of the Employer shall in no way represent to the Participant or Named Beneficiary a property or beneficial ownership interest in such assets.

8.8          Limitations on Liability of the Employer

Neither the establishment of the Plan nor any modification hereof nor the creation of any account under the Plan nor the payment of any benefits under the Plan shall be construed as giving to the Participant or any other person any legal or equitable right against the Employer or any officer or employee thereof except as provided by law.

8.9          Agreement between Employer and Participant Only; Certain Construction Matters

This Plan is solely between the Employer and the Participant. The Participant, Named Beneficiary, estate or any other person claiming through the Participant, shall only have recourse against the Employer for enforcement of the terms of this Plan. This Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Employer and its successors and assigns, and the Participant, and his or her heirs, executors, administrators and Beneficiaries. This Agreement and Plan shall not be construed against the party preparing it, but shall be construed as if the Employer and Participant jointly prepared this Agreement and Plan, and no provision of this Agreement or Plan shall be interpreted against any one party.

8.10        Independence of Benefits

The benefits payable under this Plan are for services already rendered or to be rendered and shall be independent of, and in addition to, any other benefits or compensation, whether by salary, bonus or otherwise, payable to the Participant under any compensation and/or benefit arrangements or plans, incentive cash compensations and stock plans and other retirement or welfare benefit plans, that now exist or may hereafter exist from time to time.

8.11        Unclaimed Property

Except as may be required by law, the Company may take of any the following actions if it gives notice to the Participant or Named Beneficiary of an entitlement to a benefit under the Plan, and the Participant or Named Beneficiary fails to claim such benefit or fails to provide their location to the Company within three (3) calendar years of such notice:

A.            Direct distribution of such benefits, in such proportions as the Company may determine, to one or more or all, of the Participant’s next of kin, if the Company knows their location; or

▇.            ▇▇▇▇ this benefit to be forfeited and paid to the Employer if the location of the Participant’s next of kin is not known. However, the Employer shall pay the benefit, unadjusted for gains or losses from the date of such forfeiture, to the Participant or Named Beneficiary who subsequently makes proper claim to the benefit.

The Employer and any Trustee, if applicable, shall not be liable to any person for payment made in accordance pursuant to applicable state unclaimed property laws.

8.12        Named Beneficiary

As long as this Plan is in force, the Participant shall be entitled to specify or revoke and change the beneficiary or beneficiaries of a survivor benefit, if any, to be paid at the time of his/her death according to procedures set out by the Employer. No Named Beneficiary shall obtain any vested right to have this Plan continued in force, and it may be amended, modified, terminated in whole or in part by the Company in writing without the consent of any Named Beneficiary.

8.13        Required Tax Withholding and Reporting

The Employer shall withhold and report federal, state and local income and other tax amounts in connection with this Plan as may be required by law from time to time.

8.14        Discrepancies between the Plan Document and Any Other Understanding

In the event of any discrepancies or ambiguities between the terms of the Plan and any other understanding of the Plan, the terms of the Plan as set forth in this Agreement (and any amendment or restatement of this Agreement and Plan) shall control.

8.15        Code Section 409A Compliance

A.            This Plan shall be interpreted by the Committee to comply with Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) if at the time of Participant’s Termination of Employment Participant is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A and the deferral of the commencement of any payments or benefits otherwise payable hereunder as a result of such Termination of Employment is necessary in order to prevent any accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A, then the Employer will defer the commencement of the payment of any such payments or benefits hereunder (without any reduction in such payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided to Participant) until the date that is six months following Participant’s Termination of Employment (or the earliest date as is permitted under Section 409A) and (ii) if any other payments of money or other benefits due to Participant hereunder could cause the application of an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A, such payments or other benefits shall be deferred if deferral will make such payment or other benefits compliant under Section 409A, or otherwise such payment or other benefits shall be restructured, to the extent possible, in a manner, determined by the Board of Directors, that does not cause such an accelerated or additional tax.

B.            The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Section 409A and the regulations and guidance promulgated such that taxation under Section 409A shall not arise in connection with this Agreement, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted so as to be in compliance with Section 409A. In no event whatsoever shall the Company, or any other company, bank, person or other entity be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on Participant or Beneficiary under Section 409A or damages or any other losses for failing to comply with Section 409A or any other provision of applicable tax or other similar law. Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates, or any of the agents, employees, officers, directors or other representatives of one or more of the foregoing represents, warrants or guarantees any particular or favorable tax or other result in connection with this Agreement, the Plan, or otherwise. The Participant shall be solely and exclusively responsible for any and all such results.
