Hamer, the President and Chief Executive of the Company, pursuant to which the Company granted Mr. Hamer restricted stock units representing 5,875 shares of Company common stock (the "Restricted Stock Units"). Each Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive one share, or the cash-equivalent of one share, of Company common stock on the date determined in accordance with the Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, provided that Mr. Hamer continues to be employed by, or provide services to, the Company, the Restricted Stock Units will vest in full on the first to occur of the following dates (the "Vesting Date"): (i) February 17, 2012; (ii) the date of Mr. Hamer's death; (iii) the date of Mr. Hamer's Disability (as such term is defined in the Agreement); (iv) the effective date of a Change in Control Event (as such term is defined in the Agreement); or (v) immediately prior to the closing of a Change in Control Event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that an event specified in clauses (ii) through (v) of the preceding sentence has not occurred, the number of Restricted Stock Units awarded to Mr. Hamer will be adjusted as of December 31, 2010, to reflect the forfeiture of such number of Restricted Stock Units (if any) that may be required under the provisions of the Company's 2010 incentive plan for Mr. Hamer. In accordance with the Agreement, shares of the Company's common stock, or the cash equivalent of such shares, with respect to the Restricted Stock Units will become issuable or payable to Mr. Hamer on the later of (i) the Vesting Date or (ii) the Repayment Date (as such term is defined in the Agreement) on which a specified percentage of the U.S. Department of Treasury's purchase of $6,970,000 in Company preferred shares (the "TARP Funds") is repaid to the U.S. Department of Treasury as follows: (i) shares with respect to 25% of the vested Restricted Stock Units will become issuable and on the date on which 25% of the TARP Funds have been repaid; (ii) shares with respect to an additional 25% of the vested Restricted Stock Units will become issuable on the date as of which 50% of the TARP funds have been repaid; (iii) shares with respect to an additional 25% of the vested Restricted Stock Units will become issuable on the date as of which 75% of the TARP funds have been repaid; and (iv) shares with respect to the remaining vested Restricted Stock Units will become issuable on the date as of which 100% of the TARP funds have been repaid.
