1.01 Term of Agreement. The term of this Agreement shall commence as of May 23, 2015 and shall continue until May 22, 2018. Thereafter, unless Manager’s employment with the Company has been previously terminated, Manager shall continue his employment with the Company on an at will basis and, except as provided in Articles Five, Six and Seven, this Agreement shall terminate unless extended by mutual written agreement.

1.02 Employment. The Company agrees to employ Manager and Manager accepts such employment by the Company on the terms and conditions herein set forth. The duties of Manager shall be determined by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and shall adhere to the policies and procedures of the Company and shall follow the supervision and direction of the Chief Executive Officer or his designee in the performance of such duties. During the term of his employment, Manager agrees to devote his full working time, attention and energies to the diligent and satisfactory performance of his duties hereunder. Manager shall not, while he is employed by the Company, engage in any activity which would (a) interfere with, or have an adverse effect on, the reputation, goodwill or any business relationship of the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (b) result in economic harm to the Company or any of its subsidiaries; or (c) result in a breach of Section Six of the Agreement.

2.01 Base Salary. The Company shall pay Manager an annual base salary of $184,031.90 per fiscal year, payable in accordance with the Company’s customary payroll practices for management employees. The Chief Executive Officer or his designee may review and adjust Manager's base salary from year to year; provided, however, that during the term of Manager's employment, the Company shall not decrease Manager's base salary.

2.02 Incentive Compensation Plan. Manager shall participate in the First Mid-Illinois Bancshares, Inc. Incentive Compensation Plan in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Plan. Pursuant to the Plan, Manager shall have an opportunity to receive incentive compensation with a target value of up to a maximum of 35% of Manager's annual base salary. The Chief Executive Office or his designee may review and adjust the maximum percentage from year to year, provided, however, that during the term of manager’s employment, the Company shall not decrease this percentage. The incentive compensation payable for a particular fiscal year will be based upon the attainment of the performance goals in effect under the Plan for such year and will be paid in accordance with the terms of the Plan and at the sole discretion of the Board.

2.05 Other Benefits. Manager shall be eligible (to the extent he qualifies) to participate in any other retirement, health, accident and disability insurance, or similar employee benefit plans as may be maintained from time to time by the Company for its other management employees subject to and on a consistent basis with the terms, conditions and overall administration of such plans.

2.06 Business Expenses. Manager shall be entitled to reimbursement by the Company for all reasonable expenses actually and necessarily incurred by him on its behalf in the course of his employment hereunder and in accordance with expense reimbursement plans and policies of the Company from time to time in effect for management employees.

2.07 Withholding. All salary, incentive compensation and other benefits provided to Manager pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to withholding for federal, state or local taxes, amounts withheld under applicable employee benefit plans, policies or programs, and any other amounts that may be required to be withheld by law, judicial order or otherwise or by agreement with, or consent of, Manager.

This Agreement shall terminate prior to the end of the term described in Section 1.01 upon Manager’s termination of employment with the Company due to his death. Upon Manager’s termination due to death, the Company shall pay Manager’s estate the amount of Manager’s base salary plus his accrued but unused vacation time earned through the date of such death and any incentive compensation earned for the preceding fiscal year that is not yet paid as of the date of such death.

(c) Continued coverage for Manager and/or Manager’s family under the Company’s health plan pursuant to Title I, Part 6 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“COBRA”) and for such purpose the date of Manager’s termination of employment shall be considered the date of the “qualifying event” as such term is defined by COBRA. During the period beginning on the date of such termination and ending at the end of the period described in Section 4.01(a), Manager shall be charged for such coverage in the amount that he would have paid for such coverage had he remained employed by the Company, and for the duration of the COBRA period, Manager shall be charged for such coverage in accordance with the provisions of COBRA.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean Manager’s (i) conviction in a court of law of (or entering a plea of guilty or no contest to) any crime or offense involving fraud, dishonesty or breach of trust or involving a felony; (ii) performance of any act which, if known to the customers, clients, stockholders or regulators of the Company, would materially and adversely impact the business of the Company; (iii) act or omission that causes a regulatory body with jurisdiction over the Company to demand, request, or recommend that Manager be suspended or removed from any position in which Manager serves with the Company; (iv) substantial nonperformance of any of his obligations under this Agreement; (v) material misappropriation of or intentional material damage to the property or business of the Company or any affiliate; or (vi) breach of Article Five or Six of this Agreement.

(a) Notwithstanding Section 4.01, if, following a Change in Control, and prior to the end of the term of this Agreement, Manager’s employment is terminated by the Company (or any successor thereto) for any reason other than Cause, or Manager terminates his employment for Good Reason, the Company (or any successor thereto) shall pay Manager the following:

(iv) Continued coverage for Manager and/or Manager’s family under the Company’s health plan pursuant to Title I, Part 6 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“COBRA”) and for such purpose the date of Manager’s termination of employment shall be considered the date of the “qualifying event” as such term is defined by COBRA. During the period beginning on the date of such termination and ending at the end of the period described in Section 4.02(a)(i) above, Manager shall be charged for such coverage in the amount that he would have paid for such coverage had he remained employed by the Company, and for the duration of the COBRA period, Manager shall be charged for such coverage in accordance with the provisions of COBRA.

(ii) “Good Reason” shall be deemed to exist if, without Manager’s written consent: (A) there is a material diminution in Manager’s position, authority or responsibility; (B) there is a material reduction in Employee’s total compensation (including benefits and annual and long-term incentive opportunity) from then-current levels; (C) there is a relocation of Manager’s primary place of employment of at least 30 miles; or (D) the Company materially breaches this Agreement.

A termination of Manager’s employment by Manager shall not be deemed to be for Good Reason unless (x) Manager gives notice to the Company of the existence of the event or condition constituting Good Reason within 30 days after such event or condition initially occurs or exists, (y) the Company fails to cure such event or condition within 30 days after receiving such notice, and (z) Manager’s termination occurs not later than 90 days after such event or condition initially occurs or exists (or, if earlier, the last of the term of this Agreement).

4.03 Other Termination of Employment. If, prior to the end of the term of this Agreement, the Company terminates Manager’s employment for Cause, or if Manager terminates his employment for any reason other than as described in Section 4.02 above, the Company shall pay Manager the base salary and accrued but unused paid vacation time earned through the date of such termination and any incentive compensation earned for the preceding fiscal year that is not yet paid.

4.04 Section 409A Compliance. If at the time of such termination of employment Manager is a “Key Employee” as defined in Section 416(i) of the Internal Revenue Code (without reference to paragraph 5 thereof), and the amounts payable to Manager pursuant to Article Four are subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, payment of such amounts shall not commence until six months following Manager’s termination of employment, with the first payment to include the payments that otherwise would have been made during such six-month period. Each payment made pursuant to Sections 4.01and 4.02 shall be considered a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A.

5.01 Non-Disclosure of Confidential Information. During his employment with the Company, and after his termination of such employment with the Company, Manager shall not, in any form or manner, directly or indirectly, use, divulge, disclose or communicate to any person, entity, firm, corporation or any other third party, any Confidential Information, except as required in the performance of Manager’s duties hereunder, as required by law or as necessary in conjunction with legal proceedings.

5.02 Definition of Confidential Information. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term "Confidential Information" shall mean any and all information either developed by Manager during his employment with the Company and used by the Company or its affiliates or developed by or for the Company or its affiliates of which Manager gained knowledge by reason of his employment with the Company that is not readily available in or known to the general public or the industry in which the Company or any affiliate is or becomes engaged. Such Confidential Information shall include, but shall not be limited to, any technical or non-technical data, formulae, compilations, programs, devices, methods, techniques, procedures, manuals, financial data, business plans, lists of actual or potential customers, lists of employees and any information regarding the Company's or any affiliate’s products, marketing or database. The Company and Manager acknowledge and agree that such Confidential Information is extremely valuable to the Company and may constitute trade secret information under applicable law. In the event that any part of the Confidential Information becomes generally known to the public through legitimate origins (other than by the breach of this Agreement by Manager or by other misappropriation of the Confidential Information), that part of the Confidential Information shall no longer be deemed Confidential Information for the purposes of this Agreement, but Manager shall continue to be bound by the terms of this Agreement as to all other Confidential Information.

5.03 Delivery upon Termination. Upon termination of Manager's employment with the Company for any reason, Manager shall promptly deliver to the Company all correspondence, files, manuals, letters, notes, notebooks, reports, programs, plans, proposals, financial documents, and any other documents or data concerning the Company's or any affiliate’s customers, database, business plan, marketing strategies, processes or other materials which contain Confidential Information, together with all other property of the Company or any affiliate in Manager's possession, custody or control.

6.01 Covenant Not to Compete. During the term of this Agreement and for a period of one year following the termination of Manager's employment for any reason, Manager shall not, on behalf of himself or on behalf of another person, corporation, partnership, trust or other entity, within a 50 mile radius of any location where the Company or any affiliate conducts business.

(a) Directly or indirectly own, manage, operate, control, participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, be connected with or have any financial interest in, or serve as an officer, employee, advisor, consultant, agent or otherwise to any person, firm, partnership, corporation, trust or other entity which owns or operates a business similar to that of the Company or its affiliates.

(b) Solicit for sale, represent, and/or sell Competing Products to any person or entity who or which was the Company’s customer or client during the last year of Manager's employment. "Competing Products," for purposes of this Agreement, means products or services which are similar to, compete with, or can be used for the same purposes as products or services sold or offered for sale by the Company or any affiliate or which were in development by the Company or any affiliate within the last year of Manager's employment.

(a) Attempt in any manner to solicit from any client or customer business of the type performed by the Company or any affiliate or persuade any client or customer of the Company or any affiliate to cease to do such business or to reduce the amount of such business which any such client or customer has customarily done or contemplates doing with the Company or any affiliate, whether or not the relationship between the Company or affiliate and such client or customer was originally established in whole or in part through Manager’s efforts.

Manager acknowledges that compliance with the provisions of Articles Five and Six herein is necessary to protect the business, goodwill and proprietary information of the Company and that a breach of these covenants will irreparably and continually damage the Company for which money damages may be inadequate. Consequently, Manager agrees that, in the event that he breaches or threatens to breach any of these provisions, the Company shall be entitled to both (a) a temporary, preliminary or permanent injunction in order to prevent the continuation of such harm; and (b) money damages insofar as they can be determined. In addition, the Company will cease payment of all compensation and benefits under Articles Three and Four hereof. In the event that any of the provisions, covenants, warranties or agreements in this Agreement are held to be in any respect an unreasonable restriction upon Manager or are otherwise invalid, for whatsoever cause, then the court so holding shall reduce, and is so authorized to reduce, the territory to which it pertains and/or the period of time in which it operates, or the scope of activity to which it pertains or effect any other change to the extent necessary to render any of the restrictions of this Agreement enforceable.

(a) No rights or obligations of the Company under this Agreement may be assigned or transferred except that the Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place.

8.02 Payment Recoupment and Restrictions. Manager agrees and acknowledges that this Agreement and any incentive payments made or to be made hereunder are subject to the terms of any Company clawback or recoupment policy. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any payment or benefit under this Agreement be paid, provided or accrued if such payment, provision or accrual would be in violation of applicable law, rule, regulation or court or agency order.

8.03 Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and may not be modified except in writing by the parties hereto. Furthermore, the parties hereto specifically agree that all prior agreements, whether written or oral, relating to Manager's employment by the Company shall be of no further force or effect from and after the date hereof.

8.04 Severability. If any phrase, clause or provision of this Agreement is deemed invalid or unenforceable, such phrase, clause or provision shall be deemed severed from this Agreement, but will not affect any other provisions of this Agreement, which shall otherwise remain in full force and effect. If any restriction or limitation in this Agreement is deemed to be unreasonable, onerous or unduly restrictive, it shall not be stricken in its entirety and held totally void and unenforceable, but shall be deemed rewritten and shall remain effective to the maximum extent permissible within reasonable bounds.

8.06 Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) on the date of service if served personally on the party to whom notice is to be given; (b) on the day after delivery to an overnight courier service; (c) on the day of transmission if sent via facsimile to the facsimile number given below; or (d) on the third day after mailing, if mailed to the party to whom notice is to be given, by first class mail, registered or certified, postage prepaid and properly addressed, to the party as follows:
