COLUMBIA SAVINGS AND LOAN ASSOCIATION
1989 DEFERRED COMPENSATION INVESTMENT ACCOUNT PLAN
1. Purpose.
This 1989 Deferred Compensation Investment Account Plan (the "Plan") is intended to provide incent ives, in the form of
deferred compensation, which will attract, motivate and retain executives of the highest caliber for Columbia Savings and Loan
Association and its subsidiaries (together, the "Association"). Under the Plan, all or a portion of a participant's annual bonus
with respect to each calendar year (and, in certain circumstances, other deferred c ompensation entitlements) shall be deferred
and allocated to Plan accounts. Those deferred amounts shall then be deemed, for purposes of t he Plan only, to represent
specified percentages of the Association's investments in certain portfolios of equity securit ies. Eventual distributions to
participants from the Plan shall be dependent, in part, on the performance of the equity securities included in those portfolios.
Thus, while all of the equity securities will be owned throughout by the Association alone, the appreciation or depreciation of
the participants' deferred amounts will be substantially dependent upon the performance of the included equity securities. In
addition, distributions shall be dependent in part upon each participant's length of service t o the Association, so that the Plan will
provide an incentive to participants to continue to offer and provide their services to the Association.
The Plan is intended to replace the Association's Incentive Investment Plan (the "Prior Plan").

providing for payment of benefits hereunder.
5. Distributions to Participants.
5.1 Distributions on Maturity Date. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5, on the Maturity Date of each
Portfolio (or, if Section 2.3 applies, the Deemed Maturity Date or the date of a Parti cipant's termination of employment,
whichever is later (the "Terminated Participant Payment Date")), each Partici pant 'in such Portfolio shall become entitled to
receive the amount of such Participant's Interim Account plus Interest, if any, on such amount accrued from the date that
there was first an amount in the Interim Account and calculated to take a ccount of changes in the amount of the Interim
Account from time to time thereafter through the Maturity Date (or, if Section 2.3 a pplies, the Terminated Participant
Payment Date). In addition, except as otherwise provided in this Section 5, on the Maturi ty Date of each Portfolio (or, if
Section 2.3 applies, the Terminated Participant Payment Date), each Participant whose employment with the Association was
terminated prior to the Maturity Date of that Portfolio other than as a result of de ath or Permanent Disability shall become
entitled to receive (i) the amount of such Participant's Unvested Account on the dat e of termination of employment plus
Interest, if any, on such amount from such date through the Maturity Date (or, if Section 2.3 applies, the Deemed Maturity

plus Interest, if any, on such amount from the date of Liquidation of such Underlying Security through the Maturity Date (or,
if Section 2.3 applies, the deemed Maturity Date). The "Vested Percentage Factor" me ans, with respect to a Participant in a
particular Portfolio, the sum of the amounts described in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 2.28 (as such amounts may be affected

5.2 Distributions After Maturity Date. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5, after the Maturity Date of each
Portfolio, each Participant in such Portfolio shall become entitled to receive, as and when Underlying Securities in such
Portfolio are Liquidated, an amount in respect of each such Liquidated Underlying Securit y which is equal to (i) the
Liquidated Value of each such Underlying Security, multiplied by (ii) the Participant 's Percentage Interest; provided,
however, that the amount of the Distribution which would otherwise be payable shall be reduced, in t he case of any
Participant whose employment with the Association was terminated prior to the Maturi ty Date of the Portfolio other than as a
resul2 -f' death or Permanent Disability, by an amount equal to the amount of the Distribution ot herwI*S%'.-', .,'able pursuant
to this provision multiplied by the result obtained by subtracting (x) the Vested Percenta ge Factor from (y) one hundred
percent ( 100%).
5.3 Distributions Reduced by Excess Deferred Amount. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each
Distribution to a Participant in respect of a Portfolio shall be reduced as necessary unt il such reduction or reductions equal the
Participant's Excess Deferred Amount, if any, with respect to such Portfolio. In addition, if on t he last to occur of (1) the
Maturity Date of the Portfolio and (ii) the Liquidation of the last Underlying Security included in such Portfolio, the
Association has not recovered the entire Excess Deferred Amount with respect to a Pa rticipant as provided in the
preceding sentence (the amount of such shortfall being referred to as the "Differential"), then each such Participant who
executed a binding written agreement with the Association pursuant to Section 3.3(111) of the Plan shall thereafter
consent to an adjustment of his or her Other Deferred Compensation entitlements such that the value of such present
entitlements and the discounted present value of such future entitlements are reduc ed in an amount equal to the
Differential. If a Participant in a Portfolio who has executed a binding written agreement pursuant to Section 3.3(iii) of
the Plan terminates his or her employment with the Association prior to the Mat urity Date of such Portfolio other than
as a result of death, the consent referred to in the preceding sentence shall be provided at the time of terminati on.
5.4 Payment Date. The payment date for any Distribution to which a Participant becomes entitled under the
provisions of this Section 5 shall be a date determined by the Association within 90 days of the event establishi ng the
entitlement.

the Participant. To the extent required by applicable federal, state or local law as in effect at the time of any
Distribution, the Association shall withhold from each Distribution made hereunder any taxes requi red to be withheld
pursuant to such law or laws.
6. Rollover of Amounts in Interim Accounts. With respect to each calendar year after the calendar year with
respect to which a Portfolio is established (other than the last calendar year im mediately preceding the Maturity Date of
such Portfolio), any balance in the Interim Account of each Participant in such Portfolio whose employment with the
Association has not theretofore been terminated shall be rolled into the Portfolios correspondi ng to such subsequent
calendar year and shall constitute all or a portion of the Deferred Amouhts thereunder. Any amounts rolled over pursuant
to this Section 6 shall be allocated equally to the Short-Term Portfolio and the Long-Term Portfolio established at the
applicable Determination Meeting.
7. Plan Effectiveness and Termination.
7.1 Shareholder Approval. This Plan shall not take effect until approved by the Board of Directors of the
Association and by the shareholders of the Association at their annual meeting to be held in calendar year 1989. Any
Portfolios established prior to the approval of the Plan by the shareholders shall be deemed subject to such approval.
7.2 Termination as a Result of Regulatory Capital Deficiency. If, at the end of any fiscal quarter of the
Association, the Association's "regulatory capital" (as determined by regulatory accounting princ iples of the Federal
Home Loan Bank Board or a successor agency ("FHLBB"') then in effect) is less than 95% of the minimum level
required by any FHLBB regulation, then no further Portfolios shall be established and the Board of Directors of the
Association may in its discretion take such steps as shall be necessary to termina te the Plan. Upon such termination,
(i) each Participant in each Portfolio which was in existence immediately prior to such determination whose Vested
Percentage Factor was greater than 40% shall be deemed to have a Vested Percent age of 100% and (ii) each
Underlying Security in each such Portfolio shall be deemed to have been Liquidated. Afte r giving effect to the
preceding sentence, the Board of Directors of the Association will then determine an equi table manner and time of

calendar years after calendar year 1998, and (ii) the Portfolio established at the Determination Meeting in calendar
year 1998 which would have constituted a Long-Term Portfolio had the election been made shall instead be deemed
to constitute a Short-Term Portfolio.
