1.

The Executive’s employment with the Employer will end on January 10, 2017 (the “Termination Date”). The Executive acknowledges and agrees that he has already been paid all compensation and benefits due through the Termination Date, including any and all accrued but unused paid time off and bonus payments, that the Employer has completely satisfied its obligations under the terms of the Employment Agreement and that the Executive is not entitled to any further payment under the terms of the Employment Agreement. The Executive and the Employer agree that neither the Company nor the Bank has any other obligation to the Executive under the Employment Agreement or any other agreement, whether written or oral, in regard to compensation, paid time off benefits, incentive awards, or bonus payments of any kind.

2.

The Employer will pay the Executive the Base Salary to which he would have been entitled had he remained in employment with the Bank under the terms of the Employment Agreement through December 31, 2018. Such Base Salary shall be net of any 2017 salary paid for the benefit of the Executive prior to the date on which payments commence under this Agreement. Payments will be made in substantially equal installments pursuant to the Bank’s established payroll practices beginning on the first payroll date following the Effective Date (defined below) and ending on or before March 15, 2018.

3.

This Agreement becomes effective on the eighth day after a signed copy of this Agreement and a signed Release of All Claims (in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto) are received by the Company from the Executive (the “Effective Date”).

4.

The Executive and the Employer acknowledge that the Executive is subject to the confidentiality provisions of the Employment Agreement, and that such provisions survive the termination of the Employment Agreement and are incorporated herein by reference. The Executive will return to the Employer on or before the Effective Date all Employer Documents and all other Employer property in his possession or under his custody or control.

5.

The Executive and the Employer acknowledge that the Executive is subject to the Restrictive Covenants set forth in the Employment Agreement for a period of eighteen (18) months following the Termination Date and that the Executive is subject to the non-disparagement terms set forth in the Release of All Claims, which Restrictive Covenants and non-disparagement terms are incorporated herein by reference.

6.

Should the Executive violate the confidentiality terms, non-disparagement terms, or Restrictive Covenants included in this Agreement, the Release of All Claims, or the Employment Agreement, the Executive agrees that such violation will constitute a material breach of this Agreement and that the Employer will be entitled to the immediate return of all money paid to the Executive under the terms of this Agreement, along with all costs and attorney’s fees expended by the Employer in pursuing the matter, and any other relief that may be awarded to the Employer for damages caused by breach of those provisions or as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

7.

The Executive agrees that he will resign as an officer and director of Employer, effective immediately.

8.

The Executive agrees that he will execute the Release of All Claims attached as an exhibit to this Agreement.

9.

Both the Executive and the Employer understand that the facts upon which this Agreement is based may hereafter prove to be other than the facts now known by or believed by either of them to be true. Each party expressly accepts and assumes the risk of the facts proving to be different, and each party agrees that the terms of this Agreement shall be effective and not subject to termination or rescission by reason of any such difference in facts.

10.

Section 9 or any other section of this Agreement notwithstanding, the Executive agrees to repay any compensation previously paid or otherwise made available to the Executive under this Agreement that is subject to recovery under any applicable law (including any rule of any securities exchange on which the securities of the Employer are then listed).

11.

This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Arkansas and any action to enforce this Agreement must be brought in Pulaski County, Arkansas. The parties consent to the jurisdiction of the courts located in Pulaski County, Arkansas for the purposes of any action enforcing or relating to the terms of this Agreement. The terms of this Agreement shall in all cases be construed as a whole, according to its fair meaning, and not strictly for or against any of the parties hereto.

12.

This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted so as to be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law, and to the extent that any provision shall be deemed unenforceable or invalid, such invalidity and unenforceability shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision hereof. Any waiver of any breach of a provision of this Agreement shall not constitute the waiver of any additional breach of that provision or breach of any other provision of this Agreement.

13.

This Agreement binds and inures to the benefit of the parties hereto, and their personal representatives, heirs, executors, administrators, assigns, and successors in interest.

14.

It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties that the Employer denies any wrongdoing in connection with the employment or the ending of the employment of the Executive, and this Agreement and the payment of the severance pay and any other consideration given in this Agreement is not and is never to be construed as an admission of liability by the Employer. Further, the parties agree that this Agreement shall not be interpreted to render the Executive a prevailing party for any purpose including, but not limited to, the awarding of attorney’s fees under any statute.

15.

It is the intent of the parties that this Agreement shall be interpreted and administered in a manner so that any amount or benefit payable hereunder shall be paid or provided in a manner that is either exempt from or compliant with the requirements Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and applicable Internal Revenue Service guidance and Treasury Regulations issued thereunder. Neither the Employer nor its directors, officers, executives, or advisers shall be held liable for any taxes, interest, penalties or other monetary amounts owed by the Executive as a result of the application of Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, all payments and benefits under this Agreement that would constitute non-exempt “deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code and that would otherwise be payable or distributable hereunder by reason of the Executive’s termination of employment, will not be payable or distributable to the Executive unless the circumstances giving rise to such termination of employment meet any description or definition of “separation from service” in Section 409A of the Code and applicable regulations (without giving effect to any elective provisions that may be available under such definition). If this provision prevents the payment or distribution of any amount or benefit, such payment or distribution shall be made on the date, if any, on which an event occurs that constitutes a Section 409A-compliant “separation from service.”

16.

This Agreement, together with the Release of All Claims in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A and the provisions incorporated herein from the Employment Agreement, contains the entire agreement between the parties with regard to the matters set forth herein and there are no other understandings or agreements, oral or otherwise, between the parties relating to these matters. This Agreement can be modified, changed, or amended only in writing signed by both the Employer and the Executive.

17.

By signing this Agreement, the Executive hereby acknowledges the following:

a.

He understands its terms and conditions;

b.

He has been advised of his right to consult an attorney to review the Agreement;

c.

He understands that he does not waive any rights or claims that may arise after the date the Agreement is executed;
