SECTION 2 AMENDMENTS

This section, solely for the purpose of benefits earned by this Executive, amends certain sections of the First Northern Bank Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan.

2.1

Amendments Following a Change in Control -If the Executive's employment with the Bank terminates within 24 months after any Change in Control or in the event the Executive terminates employment voluntarily for Good Reason within 24 months after any Change-in-Control, the following benefit shall be payable to the Executive in lieu of any other benefits payable under the Plan:

Change in Control Benefit -the benefit payable to the Executive shall be the greater of the payments described in (1) and (2) below:

1.	A lump sum payment Actuarially Equivalent to the benefit determined under Section

4.1 of the Plan with the following changes: (a) the Target Retirement Percentage used shall be the Target Retirement Percentage assuming Service to age 65, and (b) the Profit Sharing Benefit and Social Security Benefit shall be determined as of the 1st of the year of termination. The lump sum payment shall be determined using the Treasury Rate in effect on the date of termination and shall be discounted for the period of time the lump sum payment precedes the date the Participant attains age 65.

2.	A lump sum payment Actuarially Equivalent to the benefit the Participant would receive from the Plan without regard to this Section 2.1. The lump sum payment shall be determined using the Treasury Rate in effect on the date of termination.

The Company shall pay this Change in Control Benefit to the Executive within three days after the Executive's Separation from Service. If when the Participant's Separation from Service occurs the Participant is a specified employee within the meaning of Code

section 409A, the lump-sum benefit shall be delayed and shall instead be paid on the first day of the seventh month after the month in which Separation from Service occurs, with interest to the payment date using the Treasury Rate.

2.2

One Benefit Only. Despite anything to the contrary in the Plan or in this Participation Agreement, the Executive and Beneficiary are entitled to one benefit only, which shall be determined by the first event to occur that is dealt with by the Plan and this Participation Agreement. Subsequent occurrence of events dealt with by the Plan and this Participation Agreement shall not entitle the Executive or Beneficiary to other or additional benefits under the Plan or this Participation Agreement.

2.3	Amendment of Death Benefit. If the Executive dies while actively employed and before the attainment of Normal Retirement Age, the benefit payable to the Executive's beneficiary shall be the greater of (1) and

(2)

below:

(I)

$10,000 per month paid each month for 120 months plus 6 months for each full year of Service over 10 years (limited to 180 months total). This benefit shall be limited in present value to the net amount at risk of all insurance policies owned by First Northern Bank as of the Executive's date of death on the life of the Executive and under which First Northern Bank is the sole beneficiary. This present value limitation shall be determined using a 5% discount rate.

(2) the benefit that the Executive's beneficiary would have received had the Executive retired under Section 4.2 of the Plan on the day of the Executive's death, commenced Early Retirement Benefits, and died before receiving the first payment.

This benefit shall commence as soon as administratively feasible.

If the Executive dies while actively employed and on or after attainment of Normal Retirement Age, the benefit payable to the Executive's beneficiary shall be the same benefit the beneficiary would have received had the Executive retired on the date of death, commenced Normal Retirement Benefits and died before receiving the first payment.

If a participant dies after termination of employment, the Participant's Beneficiary shall be entitled to receive benefits in the same amount and for the same duration that the Participant would have received had the Participant survived to receive all payments due. The benefit shall be paid to the Beneficiary at the same time the benefit would have been paid to the Participant, disregarding the potential six-month delay required under Code section 409A for separation-from-service benefits paid to a specified employee.

The benefit payable under this section 2.3 shall be paid in lieu of any other benefit payable under the Plan or this Participation Agreement

SECTION 3 MISCELLANEOUS

3.1

Amendments and Termination. This Participation Agreement may be amended or terminated only by a written agreement signed by the Bank and the Executive. For the purpose of determining benefits for the Executive, any amendment or termination of the Plan shall be effective for the Executive only by a written agreement signed by the Company and the Executive. However, the Executive and Company agree that the Company, in its sole discretion, may amend the Plan and this Participation Agreement to reduce the impact on the Company's earnings of any changes made by the Financial Accounting Standards Board to pension accounting standards. The Company may change the manner of benefit accrual for the Executive if, in the opinion of the Company, the changes to the Plan and this Participation Agreement produce an expense recognition pattern closer to the pattern of expense recognition expected prior to the change in accounting standards. In no event will the benefit provided to the Executive at Normal Retirement Age be reduced.

3.2	Binding Effect. This Participation Agreement shall bind the Executive and the Company, and their beneficiaries, survivors, executors, successors, administrators and trustees.

3.3

Agreement To Insure. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to purchase a life insurance policy or policies on the life of the Executive in order to informally fund or otherwise offset the costs incurred by the Plan. The Executive agrees to complete all forms and undergo any insurance underwriting that the Company may request from time to time during the Executive's active employment. In addition, the Executive hereby acknowledges that the Executive, Beneficiaries, or the Executive's estate hold no claim to any part of the value of or rights provided by such policies.

In Witness Whereof, the Executive and a duly authorized Company officer have signed this Participation Agreement as of the day and year shown below.
