The purpose of the amendments was to make changes necessary to ensure that such agreements and plans comply with the final regulations issued under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Amended and Restated Agreements between Ms. Walsh and each of the Company and the Bank (the “Agreements”) are subject to the non-objection of the Office of Thrift Supervision (the “OTS”) and the concurrence therewith of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) under the provisions of the supervisory agreements between the OTS and each of the Company and the Bank, each dated February 13, 2006 (the “Supervisory Agreements”).  The Agreements, as amended and restated, provide for reduced severance benefits as long as the Bank and/or the Company are subject to the Supervisory Agreements or are deemed to be in troubled condition. The agreements have been submitted to the OTS and the FDIC requesting such non-objection and concurrence.
 
The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the agreements, copies of which are attached as Exhibits 10.1 through 10.6 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
