Such meeting shall take place at the principal offices of the Bank or such other location as agreed to by the Executive and the Bank. During the period commencing on the date the Bank receives the Opportunity Notice and ending on the date next succeeding the date on which such meeting between the Board (or a sufficient quorum thereof) and the Executive is scheduled to occur and not withstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Executive shall be suspended from employment with the Bank (with pay to the extent not prohibited by applicable law). If the Board properly sets the date of such meeting and if the Board (or a sufficient quorum thereof) attends such meeting and in good faith does not rescind its confirmation of Cause at such meeting or if the Executive fails to attend such meeting for any reason, the Executive’s employment by the Bank shall, immediately upon the closing for such meeting and the delivery to the Executive of the Notice of Termination, be terminated for Cause.
