All vested and exercisable Options granted under this Agreement to such Employee shall be exercisable until the earlier of the Option Termination Date or the date twelve months after the date of such Employee’s death. Any such vested Option of a deceased Employee may be exercised prior to their expiration only by a person or persons to whom such Employee’s Option rights pass by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. (d) In the event that the employment of an Employee with the Bank, Company or a subsidiary of the Company is terminated by reason of such Employee’s permanent and total disability (as defined under Section 22(e)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code), any Options which have not vested as of the date of such Employee’s termination of employment by reason of permanent and total disability shall immediately expire and shall become unexercisable on such date.

(f) In the event that the employment of an Employee with the Bank, Company or a subsidiary of the Company is terminated by reason of such Employee’s retirement, any Options which have not vested as of such Employee’s retirement date shall expire and become unexercisable on the earlier of the Option Termination Date or the date three months after such Employee’s retirement date. All vested and exercisable Options granted under this Agreement to such Employee shall expire on the earlier of the Option Termination Date or the date three months after such Employee’s retirement date. (g) In the event that the employment of an Employee with the Bank, Company or a subsidiary of the Company terminates employment for any reason other than for cause or retirement, death or permanent and total disability, any Options which have not vested as of such Employee’s termination date, shall expire and become unexercisable on the earlier of the Option Termination Date or the Employee’s termination date. All vested and exercisable options as of such Employee’s termination date shall expire on the earlier of the Option Termination Date or 90 days after termination.

Notwithstanding the vesting schedule on page 1, the Option will also vest and become exercisable: (a) Upon your death or Disability during your Continuous Status as a Participant; or (b) Upon a Change in Control.

Reimbursement of expenses of attending meetings of the Board, committees of the Board or subcommittees of such committees may not be deferred. Such election shall be made by executing before the first day of such Plan Year such election notice as the Administrator may prescribe; provided, however, that upon first becoming eligible to participate in the Plan by reason of appointment to a Board, a Participant may file a Deferral Election not later than 30 days after the effective date of such appointment, which election shall apply to Compensation earned in the portion of the Plan Year commencing the day after such election is filed and ending on the last day of such Plan Year.

A demand right shall not be deemed to have been exercised until such deferred registration shall have been effected.

Additional Terms Applicable to an Incentive Option In the event this option is designated an Incentive Option in the Grant Notice, the following terms and conditions shall also apply to the grant: (i) This option shall cease to qualify for favorable tax treatment as an Incentive Option if (and to the extent) this option is exercised for one or more Option Shares: (A) more than three (3) months after the date Optionee ceases to be an Employee for any reason other than death or Permanent Disability or (B) more than twelve (12) months after the date Optionee ceases to be an Employee by reason of Permanent Disability. (ii) No installment under this option shall qualify for favorable tax treatment as an Incentive Option if (and to the extent) the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the Grant Date) of the Common Stock for which such installment first becomes exercisable hereunder would, when added to the aggregate value (determined as of the respective date or dates of grant) of the Common Stock or other securities for which this option or any other Incentive Options granted to Optionee prior to the Grant Date (whether under the Plan or any other option plan of the Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary) first become exercisable during the same calendar year, exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) in the aggregate. Should such One Hundred Thousand Dollar ($100,000) limitation be exceeded in any calendar year, this option shall nevertheless become exercisable for the excess shares in such calendar year as a Non-Statutory Option. (iii) Should the exercisability of this option be accelerated upon a Change in Control, then this option shall qualify for favorable tax treatment as an Incentive Option only to the extent the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the Grant Date) of the Common Stock for which this option first becomes exercisable in the calendar year in which the Change in Control occurs does not, when added to the aggregate value (determined as of the respective date or dates of grant) of the Common Stock or other securities for which this option or one or more other Incentive Options granted to Optionee prior to the Grant Date (whether under the Plan or any other option plan of the Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary) first become exercisable during the same calendar year, exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) in the aggregate. Should the applicable One Hundred Thousand Dollar ($100,000) limitation be exceeded in the calendar year of such Change in Control, the option may nevertheless be exercised for the excess shares in such calendar year as a Non-Statutory Option. (iv) Should Optionee hold, in addition to this option, one or more other options to purchase Common Stock which become exercisable for the first time in the same calendar year as this option, then the foregoing limitations on the exercisability of such options as Incentive Options shall be applied on the basis of the order in which such options are granted.
