(a)

A change in ownership occurs on the date that any one person, or more than one person acting as a group (as defined in Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(v)(B)), acquires ownership of stock of the Bank or the Company that, together with stock held by such person or group, constitutes more than 50% of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of the Bank or the Company.

(b)

A change in the effective control of the Company or Bank occurs on the date that either (A) any one person, or more than one person acting as a group (as defined in Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(vi)(B)) acquires (or has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) ownership of stock of the Company or the Bank possessing 30% or more of the total voting power of the stock of the Company or the Bank, or (B) a majority of the members of the Bank’s or the Company’s Board of Directors is replaced during any 12-month period by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the members of the Bank’s or the Company’s Board of Directors prior to the date of the appointment or election, provided that this subsection is inapplicable where a majority shareholder of the corporation is another corporation.

(c)

A change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Bank’s or the Company’s assets occurs on the date that any one person or more than one person acting as a group (as defined in Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(vii)(C)) acquires (or has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) assets from the Company or the Bank that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than 40% of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of the Company or the Bank. For purposes of this Agreement, “gross fair market value” means the value of the assets of the Company or the Bank, or the value of the assets being disposed of, without regard to any liabilities associated with such assets.

(d)

For all purposes hereunder, the definition of Change in Control shall be construed to be consistent with the requirements of Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-3(i)(5), except to the extent that such regulations are superseded by subsequent guidance.

1.10	“Disability” means, with respect to Executive, that, in the good faith determination of the Bank:

(a)	Executive is unable to fulfill his employment responsibilities hereunder by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months;

(b)

Executive is, by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than three months under an accident and health plan covering employees of the Bank.

1.11 “Effective Date” of this Agreement shall be December 31, 2018.

1.12	“Executive” means Timothy K. Zimmerman, who has been selected and approved by the Board of Directors to enter into the Agreement.

1.13	“Payout Period” means the time frame during which benefits payable under the Agreement shall be distributed, and all payments under this Agreement shall be paid by lump sum within five (5) business days following the Executive’s Benefit Eligibility Date specified in Section 1.6.

1.14

“Separation from Service” (or “Separated from Service”) means Executive’s death, retirement or other termination of employment with the Bank within the meaning of Code Section 409A. No Separation from Service shall be deemed to occur due to military leave, sick leave or other bona fide leave of absence if the period of the leave does not exceed six months or, if longer, so long as Executive’s right to reemployment is provided by law or contract. If the leave exceeds six months and Executive’s right to reemployment is not provided by law or by contract, then Executive shall have a Separation from Service on the first date immediately following such six-month period.

Whether a Separation from Service has occurred is determined based on whether the facts and circumstances indicate that the Bank and Executive reasonably anticipated that no further services would be performed after a certain date or that the level of bona fide services Executive would perform after that date (whether as an employee or as an independent contractor) would permanently decrease to less than 50% of the average level of bona fide services performed over the immediately preceding 36 months (or the lesser period of time in which Executive performed services for the Bank). The determination of whether Executive has had a Separation from Service shall be made by applying the presumptions set forth in the Treasury Regulations under Code Section 409A.

1.15	“Specified Employee” means an individual who also satisfies the definition of “key employee” as that term is defined in Code Section 416(i) (without regard to paragraph (5) thereof).

1.16	“Survivor’s Benefit” means the benefit payable to Executive’s Beneficiary following his death in accordance with Section 2.5.

1.17	“Vested Account Balance” means the portion of Executive’s Account Balance that is vested in accordance with the Vesting Schedule.

1.18	“Vesting Schedule” means the rate at which the Executive’s Account Balance becomes vested and non-forfeitable. The Executive’s Account Balance shall become vested as follows:

50% on January 1, 2020

100% on June 30, 2020

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Account Balance shall immediately become 100% vested upon Executive’s death or Disability and upon a Separation from Service in connection with or within two years following a Change in Control.

6.3

Severability and Interpretation of Provisions . The Bank shall have full power and authority to interpret, construe and administer this Agreement and the Bank’s interpretation and construction thereof and actions thereunder shall be binding and conclusive on all persons for all purposes. No employee or representative of the Bank shall be liable to any person for any actions taken or omitted in connection with the interpretation and administration of this Agreement unless attributable to his own willful misconduct or lack of good faith. In the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement or portion hereof are held to be inoperative or invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, or in the event that any provision is found to violate Code Section 409A and would subject Executive to additional taxes and interest on the amounts deferred hereunder, or in the event that any legislation adopted by any governmental body having jurisdiction over the Bank would be retroactively applied to invalidate this Agreement or any provision hereof or cause the benefits under this Agreement to be taxable, then: (1) insofar as is reasonable, effect will be given to the intent manifested in the provisions held invalid or inoperative, and (2) the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not be affected thereby.

Upon expiration of the three (3) year period, the Bank may discharge its obligation by payment to Executive’s Beneficiary.

6.6

Limitations on Liability . Notwithstanding any of the preceding provisions of the Agreement, no individual acting as an employee or agent of the Bank, or as a member of the Board of Directors shall be personally liable to Executive or any other person for any claim, loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with the Agreement.
