          WHEREAS, none of the conditions or events included in the definition of the term "golden parachute payment" that is set forth in section 18(k)(4)(A)(ii) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act [12 U.S.C. 1828(k)(4)(A)(ii)] and in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Rule 359.1(f)(1)(ii) [12 CFR 359.1(f)(1)(ii)] exists or, to the best knowledge of the Bank, is contemplated insofar as the Bank is concerned, and

          NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of these premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Executive and the Bank hereby agree as follows.

          1.1          "Account Balance" means the Bank's accounting of annual contributions made by the Bank, plus accrued interest.

          1.2          "Bank Performance Standard" means the financial condition or conditions established by the Bank's board of directors that must be satisfied at the end of a Plan Year in order for the Executive to be entitled to an annual contribution for that Plan Year. As of the Effective Date of this Agreement, the Bank Performance Standard that must be satisfied at the end of a Plan Year in order for the Executive to receive an annual contribution for that Plan Year is as follows: (x) the Bank must have the legal capacity under Michigan law to pay a cash dividend to its holding company, Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc., and (y) declaration and payment by the Bank of a cash dividend to its holding company must not be subject to the requirement for advance approval of or advance notice to the FDIC, the Federal Reserve Board or Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, or the Michigan Office of Financial and Insurance Regulation. For purposes of clause (y), an advance notice requirement or advance

approval requirement applying generally to all Michigan-chartered banks, for example a notice or approval requirement applicable to all Michigan-chartered banks by rule, shall not be taken into account. The only advance notice or advance approval requirements that shall be taken into account for purposes of clause (y) are those applying specifically to the Bank by name as the result of a formal or informal enforcement action, including but not limited to a consent order, formal agreement, memorandum of understanding, or voluntary board resolutions.

          (a)          Change in ownership: a change in ownership of Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc., a Michigan corporation of which the Bank is a wholly owned subsidiary, occurs on the date any one person or group accumulates ownership of Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc. stock constituting more than 50% of the total fair market value or total voting power of Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc. stock,

          (b)          Change in effective control: (x) any one person or more than one person acting as a group acquires within a 12-month period ownership of Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc. stock possessing 30% or more of the total voting power of Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc., or (y) a majority of Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc.'s board of directors is replaced during any 12-month period by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed in advance by a majority of Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc.'s board of directors, or

For

this purpose, gross fair market value means the value of Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc.'s assets, or the value of the assets being disposed of, determined without regard to any liabilities associated with the assets.

          1.7          "Code" means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and rules, regulations, and guidance of general application issued thereunder by the Department of the Treasury.

For purposes of this Agreement, if there is a dispute about the employment status of the Executive or the date of the Executive's Separation from Service, the Bank shall have the sole and absolute right to decide the dispute unless a Change in Control shall have occurred.

          1.13          "Termination with Cause" and "Cause" shall have the same definition specified in any effective severance or employment agreement existing on the date hereof or hereafter entered into between the Executive and the Bank or between the Executive and Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc.

          (a)          dishonesty by the Executive in the performance of duties leading to filing of a Suspicious Activity Report under FDIC regulations at 12 C.F.R. Part 353, or breach of the Executive's fiduciary duties for personal profit, in any case whether in the Executive's capacity as a director or officer, or

          (b)          the Executive is removed from office or permanently prohibited from participating in the Bank's affairs by an order issued under section 8(e)(4) or section 8(g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. 1818(e)(4) or (g)(1).

ARTICLE 2
DEFERRAL ACCOUNT

          2.1          Annual Contribution and Account Balance. (a) The Bank shall establish an Account Balance on its books. Within three months after the end of each Plan Year, including the first Plan Year, the Bank may credit an annual contribution to the Account Balance in an amount targeted to be

___% of the Executive's Base Annual Salary at the beginning of the Plan Year immediately before the Plan Year in which the annual contribution is made, but only if the Bank Performance Standard was achieved for the Plan Year. If the Bank Performance Standard is not achieved for a Plan Year, the Executive shall receive no annual contribution to the Account Balance for that Plan Year. If the Bank Performance Standard is achieved for a Plan Year, the board of directors shall in its discretion determine whether the Executive shall receive an annual contribution to the Account Balance for that Plan Year and the amount of the annual contribution; the annual contribution may be more or less than ___% of the Executive's Base Annual Salary. Whether a contribution shall be made to the Account Balance, as well as the amount of the contribution, is and shall remain discretionary on the part of the Bank's board of directors.

          (b)          Contributions to the Account Balance by the Executive are prohibited.

          (c)          The full annual contribution shall not be made by the Bank for the Plan Year in which the Executive attains Normal Retirement Age or for any year thereafter. However, if the Bank Performance Standard is achieved for the Plan Year in which the Executive attains Normal Retirement Age (and if Separation from Service does not occur before Normal Retirement Age), the Bank may make a final contribution in an amount equal to the annual contribution rate multiplied by a percentage. The percentage shall be based on the number of days in the Plan Year before the Executive attained Normal Retirement Age, divided by 365. No annual contribution shall be made by the Bank for the Plan Year in which the Executive's death or Separation from Service occurs or for any year thereafter (except for a possible final contribution for the year in which the Executive attains Normal Retirement Age, unless Separation from Service occurs before Normal Retirement Age).

          2.2          Interest. Until the first to occur of (x) Normal Retirement Age, (y) the Executive's death, or (z) the Executive's Separation from Service, interest is to be credited on the Account Balance at an annual rate of interest, compounded monthly on the first day of the month, equal to the prime interest rate as published in The Wall Street Journal (the "Index"). After the first to occur of (x) Normal Retirement Age, (y) the Executive's death, or (z) the Executive's Separation from Service, interest shall be credited on the Account Balance at an annual rate equal to the yield on a 20-year corporate bond rated Aa by Moody's, rounded to the nearest ¼%.

          2.3          Statement of Account. Within 120 days after the end of each Plan Year, the Bank shall provide to the Executive a statement of the Account Balance at the end of the Plan Year. Each annual statement of the Account Balance shall supersede the previous year's statement of the Account Balance.

          2.4          Accounting Device Only. The Account Balance is solely a device for measuring amounts to be paid under this Agreement. The Account Balance is not a trust fund of any kind. The Executive is a general unsecured creditor of the Bank for the payment of benefits. The benefits represent the mere promise by the Bank to pay benefits. The Executive's rights are not subject to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment, or garnishment by the Executive's creditors.

ARTICLE 3
BENEFITS DURING LIFETIME

          3.1          Normal Retirement Age. Unless Separation from Service or a Change in Control occurs before Normal Retirement Age, when the Executive attains Normal Retirement Age the Bank shall pay in 120 substantially equal monthly installments to the Executive the Account Balance as of the end of the month in which the Executive attains Normal Retirement Age, instead of any other benefit under this Agreement. Payment of the benefit shall begin on the first day of the month after the month in which the Executive attains Normal Retirement Age. The Bank shall credit interest according to the formula of section 2.2, compounded monthly, until the Account Balance is paid in full. If the Executive's Separation from Service is a Termination with Cause, no further benefits shall be paid under this Agreement and this Agreement shall terminate.

          3.2          Separation from Service. If Separation from Service occurs before Normal Retirement Age for reasons other than death, instead of any other benefit under this Agreement the Bank shall pay in 120 substantially equal monthly installments to the Executive the Account Balance as of the end of the month immediately before the month in which payments commence, unless the Change-in-Control benefit shall have been paid under section 3.3. Payments of the benefit shall begin on the first day of the later of (x) the seventh month after the month in which Separation from Service occurs or (y) the month after the month in which the Executive attains Normal Retirement Age. The Bank shall credit interest according to the formula of section 2.2, compounded monthly, until the Account Balance is paid in full.

          3.3          Change in Control. If a Change in Control occurs both before the Executive attains Normal Retirement Age and before the Executive's Separation from Service, instead of any other benefit payable under this Agreement the Bank shall pay to the Executive the entire Account Balance in a single lump sum within three days after the Change in Control. Payment of the Change-in-Control benefit shall fully discharge the Bank from all obligations under this Agreement, except the legal fee reimbursement obligation under section 9.11. If the Executive receives the benefit under this section 3.3 because of the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Executive shall not be entitled to claim additional benefits under section 3.3 if an additional Change in Control occurs thereafter.

          3.4          Payout of Normal Retirement Benefit or Separation from Service Benefit after a Change in Control. If when a Change in Control occurs the Executive is receiving the benefit under section 3.1, the Bank shall pay the remaining benefits to the Executive in a single lump sum within three business days after the Change in Control. If when a Change in Control occurs the Executive is receiving or is entitled at Normal Retirement Age to receive the benefit under section 3.2, the Bank shall pay the remaining benefits to the Executive in a single lump sum within three business days after the later of (x) the date of the Change in Control or (y) the first day of the seventh month after the month in which the Executive's Separation from Service occurs. The lump-sum payment due to the Executive as a result of a Change in Control shall be an amount equal to the Account Balance remaining unpaid. Payment of the benefit under this section 3.4 shall fully discharge the Bank from all obligations under this Agreement, except the legal fee reimbursement obligation under section 9.11.

          3.5          One Benefit Only. Despite anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Executive and Beneficiary are entitled to one benefit only under this Agreement, which shall be determined by the

first event to occur that is dealt with by this Agreement. Except as provided in section 3.4, later occurrence of events dealt with by this Agreement shall not entitle the Executive or Beneficiary to other or additional benefits under this Agreement.

          3.6          Savings Clause Relating to Compliance with Code Section 409A. Despite any contrary provisions of this Agreement, if when the Executive's employment terminates the Executive is a specified employee, as defined in Code section 409A, and if any payments under Article 3 of this Agreement will result in additional tax or interest to the Executive because of section 409A, the Executive shall not be entitled to the payments under Article 3 until the earliest of (x) the date that is at least six months after termination of the Executive's employment for reasons other than the Executive's death, (y) the date of the Executive's death, or (z) any earlier date that does not result in additional tax or interest to the Executive under section 409A. If any provision of this Agreement would subject the Executive to additional tax or interest under section 409A, the Bank shall reform the provision. However, the Bank shall maintain to the maximum extent practicable the original intent of the applicable provision without subjecting the Executive to additional tax or interest, and the Bank shall not be required to incur any additional compensation expense as a result of the reformed provision.

ARTICLE 4
DEATH BENEFITS

          After the Executive's death, the Bank shall pay to the Executive's Beneficiary the Account Balance as of the date of the Executive's death. The Account Balance shall be paid to the Executive's Beneficiary in a single lump sum 90 days after the date of the Executive's death. However, if the Executive dies after termination of this Agreement under Article 6, the Executive's Beneficiary shall be entitled to no benefits under this Agreement.

ARTICLE 5
BENEFICIARIES

          5.1          Beneficiary Designations. The Executive shall have the right to designate at any time a Beneficiary to receive any benefits payable under this Agreement after the Executive's death. The Beneficiary designated under this Agreement may be the same as or different from the beneficiary designation under any other benefit plan of the Bank in which the Executive participates.

          5.2          Beneficiary Designation Change. The Executive shall designate a Beneficiary by completing and signing the Beneficiary Designation Form and delivering it to the Plan Administrator or its designated agent. The Executive's Beneficiary designation shall be deemed automatically revoked if the Beneficiary predeceases the Executive or if the Executive names a spouse as Beneficiary and the marriage is subsequently dissolved. The Executive shall have the right to change a Beneficiary by completing, signing, and otherwise complying with the terms of the Beneficiary Designation Form and the Plan Administrator's rules and procedures, as in effect from time to time. Upon the acceptance by the Plan Administrator of a new Beneficiary Designation Form, all Beneficiary designations previously filed shall be cancelled. The Plan Administrator shall be entitled to rely on the last Beneficiary Designation Form filed by the Executive and accepted by the Plan Administrator before the Executive's death.

          5.3          Acknowledgment. No designation or change in designation of a Beneficiary shall be effective until received, accepted, and acknowledged in writing by the Plan Administrator or its designated agent.

          5.4          No Beneficiary Designation. If the Executive dies without a valid beneficiary designation or if all designated Beneficiaries predecease the Executive, the Executive's spouse shall be the designated Beneficiary. If the Executive has no surviving spouse, the benefits shall be paid to the Executive's estate.

          5.5          Facility of Payment. If a benefit is payable to a minor, to a person declared incapacitated, or to a person incapable of handling the disposition of his or her property, the Bank may pay the benefit to the guardian, legal representative, or person having the care or custody of the minor, incapacitated person, or incapable person. The Bank may require proof of incapacity, minority, or guardianship as the Bank may deem appropriate before distribution of the benefit. Distribution shall completely discharge the Bank from all liability for the benefit.

ARTICLE 6
GENERAL LIMITATIONS

          6.1          Termination with Cause. Despite any contrary provisions of this Agreement, the Bank shall not pay any benefit under this Agreement and this Agreement shall terminate if Separation from Service is a Termination with Cause.

          6.2          Misstatement. No benefits shall be paid under this Agreement if the Executive makes a material misstatement of fact on any application or resume provided to the Bank, on any application for life insurance purchased by the Bank, or on any application for benefits provided by the Bank.

          6.3          Removal. Despite any contrary provisions of this Agreement, if the Executive is removed from office or permanently prohibited from participating in the Bank's affairs by an order issued under section 8(e)(4) or (g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. 1818(e)(4) or (g)(1), all obligations of the Bank under this Agreement shall terminate as of the effective date of the order.

          6.4          Default. Despite any contrary provisions of this Agreement, if the Bank is in "default" or "in danger of default", as those terms are defined in of section 3(x) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. 1813(x), all obligations under this Agreement shall terminate.

ARTICLE 7

ARTICLE 8
ADMINISTRATION OF AGREEMENT

          8.1          Plan Administrator Duties. This Agreement shall be administered by a Plan Administrator consisting of the board's Compensation Committee or such persons as the Compensation Committee shall appoint. The Executive may not be a member of the Plan Administrator. The Plan Administrator shall have the discretion and authority to (x) make, amend, interpret, and enforce all appropriate rules and regulations for the administration of this Agreement and (y) decide or resolve any and all questions that may arise, including interpretations of this Agreement.

          8.2          Agents. In the administration of this Agreement the Plan Administrator may employ agents and delegate to them such administrative duties as the Plan Administrator sees fit (including acting through a duly appointed representative) and may from time to time consult with counsel, who may be counsel to the Bank.

          8.3          Binding Effect of Decisions. The decision or action of the Plan Administrator concerning any question arising out of the administration, interpretation, and application of the Agreement and the rules and regulations promulgated hereunder shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all persons having any interest in the Agreement. Neither the Executive nor any Beneficiary shall be deemed to have any right, vested or unvested, regarding the continuing effect of any decision or action of the Plan Administrator.

          8.4          Indemnity of Plan Administrator. The Bank shall indemnify and hold harmless the members of the Plan Administrator against any and all claims, losses, damages, expenses, or liabilities

arising from any action or failure to act with respect to this Agreement, except in the case of willful misconduct by the Plan Administrator or any of its members.

          8.5          Bank Information. To enable the Plan Administrator to perform its functions, the Bank shall supply full and timely information to the Plan Administrator on all matters relating to the date and circumstances of the retirement, death, or Separation from Service of the Executive and such other pertinent information as the Plan Administrator may reasonably require.

ARTICLE 9
MISCELLANEOUS

          9.1          Amendments and Termination. This Agreement may be amended solely by a written agreement signed by the Bank and by the Executive, except that the Bank's board of directors may on its own change the financial condition or conditions constituting the Bank Performance Standard, which change shall constitute an amendment of this Agreement, provided that written notice of the change is given to the Executive as promptly as practicable after the change is adopted by the board. Except for the case of Termination with Cause, this Agreement shall not be terminated unless the Account Balance is first paid to the Executive or the Executive's Beneficiary in compliance with Code section 409A.

          9.2          Binding Effect. This Agreement shall bind the Executive and the Bank and their beneficiaries, survivors, executors, successors, administrators, and transferees.

          9.3          Successors; Binding Agreement. By an assumption agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Executive, the Bank shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the Bank's business or assets to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent the Bank would be required to perform this Agreement had no succession occurred.

          9.4          No Guarantee of Employment. This Agreement is not an employment policy or contract. It does not give the Executive the right to remain an employee of the Bank nor does the Agreement interfere with the Bank's right to discharge the Executive. This Agreement also does not require the Executive to remain an employee or interfere with the Executive's right to terminate employment at any time.

          9.5          Non-Transferability. Benefits under this Agreement may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, attached, or encumbered.

          9.6          Tax Withholding. The Bank shall withhold any taxes that are required to be withheld from the benefits provided under this Agreement.

          9.7          Applicable Law. This Agreement and all rights hereunder shall be governed by the laws of the State of Michigan, except to the extent the laws of the United States of America otherwise require.

          9.8          Unfunded Arrangement. The Executive and the Beneficiary are general unsecured creditors of the Bank for the payment of benefits under this Agreement. The benefits represent the mere

promise by the Bank to pay benefits. The rights to benefits are not subject to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment, or garnishment by creditors. Any insurance on the Executive's life is a general asset of the Bank to which the Executive and the Beneficiary have no preferred or secured claim.

          9.9          Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Bank and the Executive concerning the subject matter. No rights are granted to the Executive under this Agreement other than those specifically set forth.

          9.10          Tax Consequences. The Bank does not insure or guarantee the tax consequences of payments provided hereunder for matters beyond its control. The Executive certifies that the Executive's decision to defer receipt of compensation is not due to reliance on financial, tax, or legal advice given by the Bank or any of its employees, agents, accountants, or legal advisors.

          9.11          Payment of Legal Fees. The Bank is aware that after a Change in Control management of the Bank could cause or attempt to cause the Bank to refuse to comply with its obligations under this Agreement, or could institute or cause or attempt to cause the Bank to institute litigation seeking to have this Agreement declared unenforceable, or could take or attempt to take other action to deny the Executive the benefits intended under this Agreement. In these circumstances, the purpose of this Agreement would be frustrated. The Bank desires that the Executive not be required to incur the expenses associated with the enforcement of rights under this Agreement, whether by litigation or other legal action, because the cost and expense thereof would substantially detract from the benefits intended to be granted to the Executive hereunder. The Bank desires that the Executive not be forced to negotiate settlement of rights under this Agreement under threat of incurring expenses. Accordingly, if after a Change in Control occurs it appears to the Executive that (x) the Bank has failed to comply with any of its obligations under this Agreement, or (y) the Bank or any other person has taken any action to declare this Agreement void or unenforceable, or instituted any litigation or other legal action designed to deny, diminish, or to recover from the Executive the benefits intended to be provided to the Executive hereunder, the Bank irrevocably authorizes the Executive from time to time to retain counsel of the Executive's choice, at the Bank's expense as provided in this section 9.11, to represent the Executive in the initiation or defense of any litigation or other legal action, whether by or against the Bank or any director, officer, stockholder, or other person affiliated with the Bank, in any jurisdiction. Despite any existing or previous attorney-client relationship between the Bank and any counsel chosen by the Executive under this section 9.11, the Bank irrevocably consents to the Executive entering into an attorney-client relationship with that counsel, and the Bank and the Executive agree that a confidential relationship shall exist between the Executive and that counsel. The fees and expenses of counsel selected from time to time by the Executive as provided in this section shall be paid or reimbursed to the Executive by the Bank on a regular, periodic basis upon presentation by the Executive of a statement or statements prepared by counsel in accordance with counsel's customary practices, up to a maximum aggregate amount of $500,000, whether suit be brought or not, and whether or not incurred in trial, bankruptcy, or appellate proceedings. The Bank's obligation to pay the Executive's legal fees under this section 9.11 operates separately from and in addition to any legal fee reimbursement obligation the Bank may have with the Executive under any separate employment, severance, or other agreement between the Executive and the Bank. Despite anything in this section 9.11 to the contrary, however, the Bank shall not be required to pay or reimburse the Executive's legal

expenses if doing so would violate section 18(k) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act [12 U.S.C. 1828(k)] and Rule 359.3 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation [12 CFR 359.3].

          9.12          Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement not held invalid, and each such other provision shall continue in full force and effect to the full extent consistent with law. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid in part, such invalidity shall not affect the remainder of the provision not held invalid, and the remainder of such provision together with all other provisions of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect to the full extent consistent with law.

          9.13          Waiver. A waiver by either party of any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement in any one instance shall not be considered a waiver of the terms or conditions for the future or a waiver of any subsequent breach. All remedies, rights, undertakings, obligations, and agreements contained in this Agreement shall be cumulative, and none of them shall be in limitation of any other remedy, right, undertaking, obligation, or agreement of either party.

          9.14          Captions and Counterparts. Captions in this Agreement are included for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation or construction of the Agreement or any of its provisions. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute a single agreement.

          9.15          Notice. All notices, requests, demands, and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if delivered by hand or mailed, certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, with postage prepaid. Unless otherwise changed by notice, notice shall be properly addressed to the Executive if addressed to the address of the Executive on the books and records of the Bank at the time of the delivery of such notice, and properly addressed to the Bank if addressed to the Board of Directors, Southern Michigan Bank & Trust, 51 West Pearl Street, Coldwater, Michigan 49036.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Executive and a duly authorized Bank officer have executed this 2011 Defined Contribution Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan as of the date first written above.
