In the event that a Change in Control occurs during the Bank’s employment of the Executive and (i) the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Bank or any successor to the Company or the Bank other than for Cause (as defined below), within one hundred and twenty (120) days prior to the completion of such Change of Control or within one (1) year after the completion of such Change in Control; or (ii) the Executive resigns his or her employment for Good Reason (as defined below) within one (1) year after the completion of such Change in Control; the Executive shall be paid in the aggregate the following (subject to reduction as set forth elsewhere in this Agreement): (i) an amount equal to two (2) times the Executive’s annual base compensation for the last calendar year ended immediately preceding the Change in Control, plus (ii) an amount equal to two (2) times the average annual bonus received for the last two calendar years ended immediately preceding the Change in Control, plus (iii) all obligations accrued with respect to employment prior to any such termination pursuant to Section section 1A(i) or 1A(ii) of this Agreement (such as earned but unused vacation pay) and vested benefits (including but not limited to any vested awards of stock options or restricted stock under any Bank or Company equity incentive plans plan as determined in accordance with the terms of such equity incentive plansplan). The Bank shall pay such amounts and/or provide such vested benefits, less applicable withholdings, employment and payroll taxes (which taxes shall be paid upon termination or resignation of the Executive’s employment or at the time payments are made hereunder, as required by law), in 24 twenty-four (24) equal monthly installments (without interest or other adjustment) on the first day of each month commencing with the first such date that is at least six (6) months after the date of the Executive’s “separation from service” (as such term is defined for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code pursuant to Treasury Regulations and other guidance promulgated thereunder) and continuing for 23 twenty-three (23) successive months thereafter. This payment schedule is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. B. If Executive’s employment by the Bank or any successor to the Company or the Bank shall be terminated, or Executive shall resign for Good Reason, in either case as provided in section 1.A(i) or 1.A(ii) above of this Agreement , then the Bank or any successor to the Company or the Bank (as applicable) shall pay Executive, in addition to the other payments and benefits provided under this Agreement, a lump sum amount (adjusted for any applicable payroll and other taxes due) equal to twenty-four (24) months of the cost of the equivalent medical and dental plan coverage available under the health care continuation rules of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), to the extent that Executive or any of Executive’s dependents may be covered under the terms of any medical and dental plans of the Bank or any successor to the Company or the Bank (as applicable) for active employees immediately prior to any such termination or resignation. C. The Executive may designate in writing (on a form provided by the Bank and delivered by the Executive to the Bank before the Executive’s death, substantially in the form attached to this Agreement) ), primary and contingent beneficiaries to receive the balance of any payments or vested or accrued benefits under section Sections 1.A and 1.B that are not made prior to the Executive’s death and the proportions in which such beneficiaries are to receive such payment. The total amount of the balance of such payment or the sum of such benefits shall be paid or transferred to such beneficiaries in a single unreduced lump sum payment or transfer made within ninety (90) days following the Executive’s death. The Executive may change beneficiary designations from time to time by completing and delivering additional such forms to the Bank. The last written beneficiary designation on such form delivered by the Executive to the Bank prior to the Executive’s death will control. If the Executive fails to designate a beneficiary in such manner, or if no designated beneficiary survives the Executive, then the Executive’s payment balance shall be paid to the Executive’s estate in an unreduced lump sum payment or vested benefit transfer within ninety (90) days following the Executive’s death.
