Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not Applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not Applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Under the Oregon Business Corporation Act (Oregon Revised Statutes
("ORS") Sections 60.387 to 60.414), applicable to the Company, a person who is
made a party to a proceeding because such person is or was an officer or
director of a corporation may be indemnified by the corporation against
liability incurred by such person in connection with the proceeding if (i) the
person's conduct was in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed
was in the corporation's best interest or at least not opposed to its best
interests and (ii) if the proceeding was a criminal proceeding, the Indemnitee
had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
Indemnification is not permitted if the person was adjudged liable to the
corporation in a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation, or if the
Indemnitee was adjudged liable on the basis that he or she improperly received a
personal benefit. Unless the articles of the corporation provide otherwise, such
indemnification is mandatory if the Indemnitee is wholly successful on the
merits or otherwise, or if ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction.
The Oregon Business Corporation Act also provides that a company's
Articles of Incorporation may limit or eliminate the personal liability of a
director to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for conduct
as a director, provided that no such provision shall eliminate the liability of
a director for (i) any breach of the directors' duty of loyalty to the
corporation or its shareholders; (ii)
II-1
<PAGE>
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law; (iii) any unlawful distribution; or (iv) any
transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
The Company's Articles of Incorporation (the "Articles") provide that
the company will indemnify its directors and officers, to the fullest extent
permissible under the Oregon Business Corporation Act against all expense
liability and loss (including attorney fees) incurred or suffered by reason of
service as a director or officer of the company or is or was serving at the
request of the company as a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or
agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee
benefit plan or other enterprise.
The effect of these provisions is to limit the liability of directors
for monetary damages, and to indemnify the directors and officers of the Company
for all costs and expenses for liability incurred by them in connection with any
action, suit or proceeding in which they may become involved by reason of their
affiliation with the Company, to the fullest extent permitted by law. These
provisions do not limit the rights of the Company or any shareholder to see
non-monetary relief, and do not affect a director's or officer's
responsibilities under any other laws, such as securities or environmental laws.

Re: Form S-8 Registration of 1997 Directors Compensation Plan
Gentlemen:
This firm is special counsel to Security Bank Holding Company, an
Oregon corporation, (the "Company") and, in that capacity we have assisted in
the preparation of certain documents relating to the potential issuance of
25,000 shares of the Company's common stock ("Shares") in accordance with the
Company's 1997 Directors Compensation Plan (the "Plan"), including the Company's
Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement").
In the course of our representation as described above, we have
examined the Plan, the Registration Statement as prepared for filing with the
Securities and Exchange Commission and related documents and correspondence. We
have received from officers of the Company having custody thereof, and have
reviewed, the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company, and any
amendments, and minutes of certain meetings of the Company's Board of Directors
and of its shareholders. We have received from the officers of the Company
certificates containing representations concerning certain facutal matters
relevant to this opinion. We have received certificates from, and have had
conversations with, public officials in those jurisdictions in which we have
deemed it appropriate.
We have relied as to matters of fact upon the above certificates,
documents and investigation. We have assumed without investigation the
genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity and completeness of all of the
documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to authentic and
complete original documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies.
Based upon and subject to all of the foregoing, we are of the opinion
that:
The Shares have been validly authorized, and when (i) the
Registration Statement has become effective and such state
securities laws as may be applicable have been complied with,
and (ii) the Shares have been delivered against payment
therefor as contemplated by the Registration Statement, the
Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
This opinion is solely for your information and is not to be quoted in
whole or in part or otherwise referred to, nor is it to be filed with any
governmental agency or other person,
<PAGE>
without our prior written consent. We hereby consent to the filing of this
opinion with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,

in its sole discretion.
4 Eligibility
Each director of the Company as of the Effective Date, and each person

progress. Any meeting in which the Company and any subsidiary

absence from no more than two Special Meetings during the
Compensation Year.
(c) Committee Meetings. Each director shall be entitled
to Base Compensation for each committee meeting attended
during the Compensation Year.
5.2 Incentive Compensation. Each director shall be entitled to
receive Incentive Compensation, payable annually as of January 1 of
each year in accordance with this section.
5.2.1 No Incentive Compensation shall be payable unless and
until the Company achieves a return on average equity of ten
percent (10%) (the "Threshold Amount").
5.2.2 An Incentive Compensation allocation for each director
("Allocation") shall be established consisting of an amount
calculated as follows, up to a maximum Allocation of $10,000:
(a) For purposes of this subsection, "Allocation
Step" is an amount equal to the Threshold Amount
expressed in dollars multiplied by 2.3%.
(b) For purposes of this subsection, the
"Index" is the ratio of (i) the difference between
net income and the Threshold Amount expressed in
dollars to (ii) the Allocation Step;

multiplying the Allocation Step by the Index, and
multiplying the resulting amount by 1.3%.
5.2.3 Each director who has served on the Board of Directors
for any portion of each year shall receive that amount of his
or her Allocation calculated by multiplying the Allocation by
a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of meetings
of the Board of Directors held during the calendar year while
such director was a member of the Board, and the denominator

of the Board of Directors held during the calendar year, then
further multiplying the resulting figure by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the number of meetings for which such
director is credited with attendance, and the denominator of
which is the number of meetings held during the calendar year
while such director was a member of the Board. Each director's
share of his or her Allocation shall be paid in Shares of
Common Stock as set forth in Section 6.4. Any portion of the
Allocation not paid pursuant to this section shall be
forfeited to the Company, and not reallocated to other
directors.
<PAGE>
6 Payment of Compensation

the form of cash or Shares. An election shall be made by
submitting a Payment Election to the Secretary of the Company.
6.1.2 Base Compensation shall, in the absence of an election
pursuant to this section, be in the form of cash payable
monthly as of the last business day of each month.
6.1.3 An election under this section shall be effective as of
January 1 of the following year and shall remain in effect
until a subsequent Payment Election is submitted to the
Company, which subsequent Payment Election shall be effective
as of the following January 1. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any director serving as of the Effective Date, and any person
who thereafter becomes a director, may make an election
pursuant to this section to be effective for the then-current
year, provided that such election is made not later than the
next regular monthly payment date of directors compensation
under this Plan. An election in effect under this section
shall apply to not less than all Base Compensation payable to
a director under this Plan for the calendar year.
6.1.4 Each director who has elected to receive payment of Base
Compensation in Shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to
receive for the Compensation Year the aggregate number of
Shares for each calendar month determined by dividing the
amount of Base Compensation earned each month by the Closing
Price on the last trading day of the respective month.
6.1.5 An election to receive Base Compensation in the form of
Shares shall constitute an agreement by the director to defer
payment of Base Compensation until Shares representing such
payment are issued. Shares issued as payment of Base
Compensation will be issued in certificate form as soon as
reasonably practicable after the close of the Compensation
Year, except as provided in Section 6.1.6.
6.1.6 An election under this section shall be binding on and
inure to the benefit of a director's heirs and assigns, and
the Company shall be under no obligation to issue Shares other
than as provided in this Section, except that the Company
shall, within 60 days following written request of the
administrator or executor of a director's estate, issue Shares
then payable as Base Compensation.
6.2 Incentive Compensation.
6.2.1 Incentive Compensation shall be paid solely in the form
of Shares of Common Stock.
6.2.2 As soon as reasonably practicable after the close of the
Compensation Year, the Company shall issue, to each director
who has served as a member of the Board of Directors for any
portion of such year, that number of Shares
<PAGE>
representing the Incentive Compensation, calculated in
accordance with Section 6.2, divided by the Closing Price on
the first trading day of such Compensation Year.
6.3 Shares may be issued in the name of the director, individually or
jointly with the director's spouse or lineal descendants, or in the
name of a trust established for the benefit of any of the foregoing
persons.
6.4 Shares issued pursuant to Sections 6.1 and 6.2 for any Compensation
Year will be issued on and as of the same date and may be represented
by one or more certificates. Any fractional shares will be rounded up
to the nearest whole Share.
6.5 Until certificates representing Shares acquired under this Plan are
issued, such Shares shall be deemed to not be issued and outstanding
for any corporate purposes. No person shall, with respect to Shares for
which certificates have not been issued, have any voting rights, or
rights to dividends or otherwise.
7 Stock Subject to the Plan
The total number of Shares of Common Stock issuable as compensation
under this Plan shall not exceed Twenty Five Thousand (25,000) Shares, which
Shares may be in whole or in part, as the Board shall from time to time
determine, authorized but unissued Shares or issued Shares which have been
reacquired by the Company. There shall at all times be reserved for issuance the
number of Shares of Common Stock covered by this Plan as herein set forth.
8 Duration of the Plan
This Plan shall be effective as of the Effective Date and shall
continue in effect until all Shares authorized and reserved for issuance under
the Plan have been issued, unless sooner terminated by action of the Board of
Directors. The Board of Directors shall have the right to suspend or terminate
this Plan at any time.
9 Amendment of the Plan
The Board of Directors may at any time and from time to time modify or
amend this Plan in such respect as it shall deem advisable to conform with any
changes in the law while this Plan is in effect or for any other reason.
10 Continuation as a Director
Nothing in the Plan or right granted pursuant hereto shall confer upon
any person a continued right to serve as a director of the Company.
11 Issue and Transfer Taxes
The Board of Directors may from time to time agree to require the
Company to pay issuance or transfer taxes on Shares issued pursuant to this
Plan.
Approved by the Board of Directors at a duly called meeting thereof on May 21,
1997.
