Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

On January 8, 2010, in connection with the completion of the initial public offering of the common stock of Versailles Financial Corporation (the “Company”), Versailles Savings and Loan Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Bank”), entered into an employment agreement (the “Agreement”) with Douglas P. Ahlers, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Bank (“Executive”). The Agreement has an initial term of three (3) years, subject to annual renewal unless written notice of non-renewal is provided to the Executive. Mr. Ahlers will be paid an annual salary of $100,000, and will be entitled to bonuses and other incentive compensation in accordance with the Bank’s plans or other arrangements in which he is entitled to participate.

Under the Agreement, upon the occurrence of either the Executive’s involuntary termination of employment by the Bank for a reason other than “cause, disability or retirement” (as defined in the Agreement) or the executive’s voluntary termination of employment for “good reason” (as defined in the Agreement) (the “Termination of Employment”), the Company or the Bank will pay the Executive a lump sum amount equal to the base salary, bonuses that the Executive would have received for the remaining term of the Agreement and the present value of the contributions that would have been made on the Executive’s behalf under the Bank’s defined contribution plans for the Executive for the remaining term of the Agreement. In addition, the Bank will provide the Executive with medical and dental coverage for the remaining term of the Agreement. In the event of a Termination of Employment within eighteen (18) months of a change in control (as defined in the Agreement), the Company or the Bank will pay the Executive a lump sum amount equal to three (3) times the sum of (i) the Executive’s highest rate of Base Salary and bonus paid to the Executive in the prior three (3) fiscal years, (ii) the present value of the contributions that would have been made on the Executive’s behalf under the Bank’s defined contribution plans for the Executive, and in addition, the Bank will provide the Executive with medical and dental coverage for three (3) years. The Agreement also includes non-competition and non-solicitation provisions to which the executive would be subject for a period of one (1) year following his Termination of Employment.

The Bank also entered into a similar employment agreement with Cheryl J. Leach, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Bank. Ms. Leach will be paid an annual salary of $64,575, and will be entitled to bonuses and other incentive compensation in accordance with the Bank’s plans or other arrangements in which she is entitled to participate. The terms of the Agreement with Ms. Leach are otherwise similar to those described above.

The foregoing description of the employment agreements are qualified in its entirety by reference to the employment agreements that are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 of this Current Report, and is incorporated by reference into this Item 5.02.
