ARTICLE IV

4.2          Elective Deferred Compensation. The amount of Compensation that a Director elects to defer shall be withheld from each payment of Compensation and credited to the Director's Account as the nondeferred portion of the Compensation becomes or would have become payable. Any withholding of taxes or other amounts with respect to deferred Compensation which is required by federal, state or local law shall be withheld from the Director's non-deferred Compensation.

 

4.3          Determination of Accounts. During a Director's period of service, each Director's Account as of each Valuation Date will consist of the balance of the Director's Account as of the immediately preceding Valuation Date, increased by Compensation deferred pursuant to a Deferral Commitment and earnings, and decreased by distributions made since the prior Valuation Date, if any.

5.1          Benefit Upon Separation from Service. Upon a Director's Separation from Service for reasons other than death, the Director shall be entitled to a distribution of his Account balance measured as of the most recent Valuation Date. Distributions shall be made to the Director as a lump sum or in equal monthly, quarterly or annual installments over a period not to exceed five (5) years, as selected by the Director on the Form of Payment Election (Exhibit D hereto). Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section 5.1, to the extent the Director is a "specified employee" (within the meaning of Final Treasury Regulations §1.409A-1(i)), then to the extent necessary to avoid penalties under Code Section 409A, distributions shall be made on the first business day of the seventh month following the Director's Separation from Service.

 

 
 

 

5.2          Death Benefit. Upon the death of a Director prior to Separation from Service with the Bank, the Bank shall pay to the Director's Beneficiary a lump sum payment of the Director's vested Account balance measured as of the most recent Valuation Date. Such payment to the Beneficiary shall completely discharge the Bank's obligations under the Plan with respect to such Director. Upon the death of a Director after Separation from Service and before commencement of distribution of his Account balance, or before distribution of all amounts owed to such Director hereunder, the balance of such Director's Account balance will be distributed to his Beneficiary in a lump sum settlement.

 

5.3          Commencement of Payments. Except as otherwise may be required pursuant to Code Section 409A, payments under the Plan shall commence within thirty (30) days of the event which triggers distribution.

 

5.4          Change of Time and Form of Distribution of Plan Benefits During 2008.

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, a Director who previously filed a Form of Payment Election with the Bank, in accordance with Section 5.1, may elect to change his or her form of payment to another permissible form of payment (e.g., from a lump sum to installments, or vice versa) by filing with the Bank a Transition Year Election Fottn, attached hereto as Exhibit E, provided that such election is made by the later of December 31, 2008, or the last day of the transition period under Code Section 409A.

7.5        Arbitration.

ARTICLE VIII

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PLAN

 

8.1        Amendment. The Board may at any time amend the Plan in whole or in part, provided, however, that no amendment shall be effective to decrease or restrict the amount accrued to the date of amendment in any Account maintained under the Plan.

(ii)          The Board may terminate the Plan within the 30 days preceding a Change in Control (but not following a Change in Control), provided that the Plan shall only be treated as terminated if all substantially similar arrangements sponsored by the Bank are terminated so that the Directors and all participants under substantially similar arrangements are required to receive all amounts of compensation deferred under the terminated arrangements within 12 months of the date of the termination of the arrangements.

 

(iii)          The Board may terminate the Plan provided that (i) the termination and liquidation does not occur proximate to a downturn in the financial health of the Bank or Company, (ii) all arrangements sponsored by the Bank that would be aggregated with this Plan under Final Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(c) if the Participant covered by this Plan was also covered by any of those other arrangements are also terminated; (iii) no payments other than payments that would be payable under the terms of the arrangement if the termination had not occurred are made within 12 months of the termination of the arrangement; (iv) all payments are made within 24 months of the termination of the arrangements; and (v) the Bank does not adopt a new arrangement that would be aggregated with any terminated arrangement under Final Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(c) if the Participant participated in both arrangements, at any time within three years following the date of termination of the arrangement.

 

ARTICLE IX

MISCELLANEOUS

 

9.1        Unfunded Plan.    The Plan is intended to be an unfunded plan maintained primarily to provide deferred compensation benefits for a select group of management. The Plan is not intended to create an investment contract, but to provide tax planning opportunities and retirement benefits to eligible Directors who were selected to participate in the Plan.

 

9.2        Unsecured General Creditor.   Directors and their Beneficiaries, heirs, successors and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, interest or claims in any property

 

 
 

 

or assets of the Bank, nor shall they be beneficiaries of, or have any rights, claims or interests in any life insurance policies, annuity contracts or the proceeds therefrom owned or which may be acquired by the Bank. Such policies or other assets of the Bank shall not be held under any trust for the benefit of Directors, their Beneficiaries, heirs, successors or assigns, or held in any way as collateral security for the fulfilling of the obligations of the Bank under the Plan. Any and all of the Bank's assets and policies shall be, and remain, the general, unpledged, unrestricted assets of the Bank. The Bank's obligation under the Plan shall be that of an unfunded and unsecured promise of the Bank to pay money in the future.

 

9.3          Trust Fund. The Bank shall be responsible for the payment of all benefits provided under the Plan. At its discretion, the Bank may establish one or more trusts, with such trustees as the Board may approve, for the purpose of providing for the payment of such benefits. Such trust or trusts may be irrevocable, but the assets thereof shall be subject to the claims of the Bank's creditors. To the extent any benefits provided under the Plan are actually paid from any such trust, the Bank shall have no further obligation with respect thereto, but to the extent not so paid, such benefits shall remain the obligation of, and shall be paid by, the Bank.

 

9.4          Payment to Director, Legal Representative or Beneficiary. Any payment to any Director or the legal representative, Beneficiary, or to any guardian or committee appointed for such Director or Beneficiary in accordance with the provisions hereof, shall, to the extent thereof, be in full satisfaction of all claims hereunder against the Bank, which may require the Director, legal representative, Beneficiary, guardian or committee, as a condition precedent to such payment, to execute a receipt and release thereof in such form as shall be determined by the Bank.

 

9.5          Nonassignability. Neither a Director nor any other person shall have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, hypothecate or convey in advance of actual receipt the amounts, if any, payable hereunder, or any part thereof, which are, and all rights to which are, expressly declared to be unassignable and nontransferable. No part of the amounts payable shall, prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Director or any other person, nor be transferable by operation of law in the event of a Director's or any other person's bankruptcy or insolvency.

 

9.6          Terms. Whenever any words are used herein in the masculine, they shall be construed as though they were used in the feminine in all cases where they would so apply; and whenever any words are used herein in the singular or in the plural, they shall be construed as though they were used in the plural or the singular, as the case may be, in all cases where they would so apply.

 

9.7          Captions. The captions of the articles, sections and paragraphs of the Plan are for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any of its provisions.

 

9.8          Governing Law. The provisions of the Plan shall be construed and interpreted according to the laws of the State of Illinois.

 

 
 

 

9.9          Validity. In case any provision of the Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, said illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts hereof, but the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal and invalid provision had never been inserted herein.

 

9.10 Notice. Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to the Committee under the Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand delivered, or sent by registered or certified mail, to any member of the Committee, the Plan administrator, or the Secretary of the Bank. Such notice shall be deemed given as of the date of delivery or, if delivery is made by mail, as of the date shown on the postmark on the receipt for registration or certification.

 

9.11 Successors. The provisions of the Plan shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Bank and its successors and assigns. The term "successors" as used herein shall include any corporate or other business entity which shall, whether by merger, consolidation, purchase or otherwise acquire all or substantially all of the business and assets of the Bank, and successors of any such corporation or other business entity.

 

9.12 Compliance with Code Section 409A. The Plan is intended to be a non-qualified deferred compensation plan described in Section 409A of the Code. The Plan shall be operated, administered and construed to give effect to such intent. To the extent that a provision of the Plan fails to comply with Code Section 409A and a construction consistent with Code Section 409A is not possible, such provision shall be void ab initio. In addition, the Plan shall be subject to amendment, with or without advance notice to Directors and other interested parties, and on a prospective or retroactive basis, including but not limited to amendment in a manner that adversely affects the rights of participants and other interested parties, to the extent necessary to effect such compliance.

 

9.13 Acceleration of Payments. Except as specifically permitted herein or in other sections of this Plan, no acceleration of the time or schedule of any payment may be made hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, payments may be accelerated hereunder by the Bank, in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4) and any subsequent guidance issued by the United States Treasury Department. Accordingly, payments may be accelerated, in accordance with requirements and conditions of the Treasury Regulations (or subsequent guidance) in the following circumstances: (i) as a result of certain domestic relations orders; (ii) in c9mpliance with ethics agreements with the Federal government; (iii) in compliance with ethics laws or conflicts of interest laws; (iv) in limited cash-outs (but not in excess of the limit under Code Section 402(g)(1)(B); (v) in the case of certain distributions to avoid a non-allocation year under Code Section 409(p); (vi) to apply certain offsets in satisfaction of a debt of the Director to the Bank; (viii) in satisfaction of certain bona fide disputes between the Director and the Bank; or (viii) for any other purpose set forth in the Treasury Regulations and subsequent guidance.

TRANSITION YEAR ELECTION FORM

Instructions: If you are a participant in the First Clover Leaf Bank Amended and Restated Director Deferred Fee Plan (the "Plan'), and you previously filed a distribution election form with First Clover Leaf Bank (the "Bank") in which you elected the form of benefit (e.g., lump sum, monthly installments) you will receive under the Plan, you have a limited period of time to use this Transition Year Election Form to elect to change your previous distribution options. For example, if you previously elected to receive your Plan benefits in monthly installments upon your Separation from Service with the Bank, you may use this Transition Year Election Form to change your form of benefit to a lump sum distribution.

Due to IRS rules, individuals who participate in the Plan must complete this form no later than December 31, 2008 or, if later, the last day of the transition period under Code Section 409A. If you make a transition year election in 2008, you may not use this form to change the time and form of your deferred compensation with respect to payments that are scheduled to be made to you in 2008, or otherwise cause payments to be made to you in 2008.

Note: If you do not wish to change the time and form of payment of benefits from previously filed Form of Payment Election, then you do not need to complete this Transition Year Election Form.
