Agreements with Executive Officers

Effective October 15, 2010, Christopher Maher was named president and Chief Executive Officer of Bancorp and the Bank. Although the framework of an employment agreement has been prepared, it has not been signed pending the completion by the Board of an executive compensation program that will be submitted to the regulators for approval.

In December 2007, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Robert F. O’Connell as its Chief Financial Officer. That agreement expired on December 31, 2010. The agreement provided for, among other things, a stipulated base salary and annual discretionary bonuses as determined by the Board of Directors. His agreement also provided that if his employment would be terminated without cause (as defined in the agreement), he would be entitled to receive a lump sum payment equal to the greater of the aggregate salary payments that would be made to him for the remaining term of the agreement or 12 months of his stipulated base salary at the time of termination. Mr. O’Connell continues in his position while the Company and Mr. O’Connell address employment arrangements which require the approval of the previously mentioned executive compensation program. In addition, Mr. O’Connell has a change of control agreement that entitles him to a lump sum payment of two and one-half times the greater of his base salary at the time of a change of control or total compensation for the most recently completed fiscal year. He waived his right to payment under the agreement for the October 15, 2010 recapitalization transaction.

In addition, Martin Noble has a change of control agreement that entitles him to receive up to two times the greater of his base salary at the time or total compensation for the most recently completed fiscal year if a change of control occurs while he is a full time officer of the Company or within six months following termination of employment other than for cause or by reason of death or disability. He also waived his right to payment for the October 15, 2010 transaction.

Payments under each of the agreements are capped so as not to exceed the limits of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code. The exercise of rights under a change of control agreement by any executive officer will not result in adverse tax consequences to Patriot under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change of Control

Patriot and/or the Bank have entered into certain agreements and maintain certain plans that will require the payment of compensation to Named Executive Officers in the event of a termination of employment or a change of control of Patriot. The amount of compensation payable to each Named Executive Officer in each situation is listed in the tables below. The disclosures assume a payment event having occurred on December 31, 2010

401(k) Plan

The Bank maintains a tax-qualified 401(k) Plan under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code with a cash or deferred arrangement under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Employees become eligible to make salary reduction contributions to the 401(k) Plan and to receive any matching or discretionary contributions made to the 401(k) Plan by the Bank on the first day of the quarter coinciding with or next following the date that the employee has attained 21 years of age and completed at least 1,000 hours of service in a period of six to 12 consecutive calendar months.

Under the 401(k) Plan, participants may elect to have the Bank contribute a portion of their compensation each year, subject to certain limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code. The 401(k) Plan permits the Bank to make discretionary matching and additional discretionary contributions to the 401(k) Plan. Participants in the 401(k) Plan may direct the investment of their accounts in several types of investment funds.

Participants are always 100% vested in their elective deferrals, matching and discretionary matching contributions and related earnings under the 401(k) Plan. Participants are permitted to receive a distribution from the 401(k) Plan only in the form of a lump sum payment.

2001 Stock Appreciation Rights Plan

In 2001, Patriot adopted the Patriot National Bancorp, Inc. 2001 Stock Appreciation Rights Plan. Under the terms of the plan, Patriot may grant stock appreciation rights, or SARs, to Patriot officers that entitle them to receive upon exercise, in cash or shares of common stock, the appreciation in the value of the common stock from the date of grant. Each award vests at the rate of 20% per year from the date of grant. Any unexercised rights will expire ten years from the date of grant. As of December 31, 2010, there were 12,000 SARs issued and outstanding.

Subject to the terms of the plan, the Board of Directors may grant a SAR to any eligible participant. A SAR entitles the participant to surrender to Patriot any then exercisable portion of the SAR in exchange for that number of shares of common stock having an aggregate fair market value on the date of surrender equal to the product of (a) the excess of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of surrender over the exercise price established by the Board, which shall not be less than the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date the SAR was granted, and (b) the number of shares of common stock subject to such SAR. In lieu of payment in shares of common stock, payment may be made in cash or partly in shares and partly in cash, as determined by the Board.

Generally, an employee will not recognize any taxable income upon the grant of an SAR. At the time the employee receives the common stock or cash for the SAR, the fair market value of shares of common stock or the amount of any cash received generally is taxable to the employee as ordinary income, taxable as compensation. Subject to the discussion under “Certain Tax Code Limitations on Deductibility” below, Patriot will be entitled to a deduction for federal income tax purposes at the same time and in the same amount that an employee recognizes ordinary income from SARs under the Plan.

In the event of a change of control, each SAR will become fully vested and, in the case of SARs will become immediately exercisable.

Item 12.		Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The table below provides certain information about beneficial ownership of common stock of the Company as of April 26, 2011 with respect to: (i) each person, or group of affiliated persons, who is known to the Company to own more than five percent (5%) of Company common stock; (ii) each of the Company’s directors; (iii) each of the Company’s executive officers; and (iv) all of the Company’s directors and executive officers as a group.

Except as otherwise noted, to the knowledge of the Company, all persons listed below have sole voting and dispositive power with respect to all shares of common stock they beneficially own, except to the extent authority is shared by spouses under applicable law. Applicable percentage ownership is based on 38,362,727 shares of common stock outstanding. In computing the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by a person and applicable percentage ownership of that person, we deemed outstanding shares of common stock subject to options held by that person that are currently exercisable or exercisable within sixty (60) days of April 26, 2011. We did not deem these shares outstanding, however, for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

Unless otherwise indicated, the address of each shareholder is in care of Patriot National Bancorp, Inc., 900 Bedford Street, Stamford, CT 06901.

Item 13.		Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

Directors and Officers of Patriot

In the ordinary course of business, the Bank has made loans to officers and directors (including loans to members of their immediate families and loans to companies of which a director owns 10% or more). The total amount of loans to officers and directors outstanding as of December 31, 2010 was $3,514,460. In the opinion of management, all of such loans were made in the ordinary course of business of the Bank on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral requirements, as those then prevailing for comparable transactions with persons not related to the lender. The Bank believes that at the time of origination these loans neither involved more than the normal risk of collectibility nor presented any other unfavorable features.

Information about transactions involving related persons is assessed by Patriot’s independent directors. Related persons include Patriot’s directors and executive officers as well as immediate family members of directors and officers. If the independent directors approve or ratify a material transaction involving a related person, then the transaction would be disclosed in accordance with the SEC rules. If the related person is a director, or a family member of a director, then that director would not participate in those discussions.

Board Independence

We are subject to the listing standards of the SEC rules pertaining to director independence, and we believe that Messrs. Constantino, Neilson, Van den Bol and Weinbaum are “independent” directors as that term is defined by applicable listing standards of the Nasdaq stock market and SEC rules, including the rules relating to the independence standards of an audit committee and the non-employee definition of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Item 14.		Principal Accounting Fees and Services

The following table sets forth the fees we paid to KPMG LLP and McGladrey & Pullen, LLP, two independent registered public accounting firms, with respect to our fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 for: (i) services rendered for the audit of our annual financial statements and the review of our quarterly financial statements; (ii) services rendered that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements and that are not reported as audit fees; (iii) services rendered in connection with tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning; and (iv) all other services rendered.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

The Audit Committee has adopted a policy for pre-approval of audit and permitted non-audit services by the Company’s independent registered public accountants. The Audit Committee will consider annually and, if appropriate, approve the provision of audit services by its external auditor and consider and, if appropriate, pre-approve the provision of certain defined audit and non-audit services. The Audit Committee also will consider on a case-by-case basis and, if appropriate, approve specific engagements that are not otherwise pre-approved.

Any proposed engagement that does not fit within the definition of a pre-approved service may be presented to the Audit Committee for consideration at its next regular meeting or, if earlier consideration is required, to the Audit Committee or one or more of its members. The member or members to whom such authority is delegated shall report any specific approval of services at its next regular meeting. The Audit Committee will regularly review summary reports detailing all services being provided to the Company by its external auditor.

The Audit Committee approved the audit-related fees, tax fees and all other fees set forth above for the year ended December 31, 2010.
