The allocation of the reduction required hereby shall be determined by Executive, provided, however, that if it is determined that such election by Executive shall be in violation of Code Section 409A, the allocation of the required reduction shall be pro-rata. (e) For purposes of Section 5, an “Event of Termination” as used herein shall mean “Separation from Service” as defined in Code Section 409A and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, provided, however, that the Bank and Executive reasonably anticipate that the level of bona fide services Executive would perform after termination would permanently decrease to a level that is less than 50% of the average level of bona fide services performed (whether as an employee or an independent contractor) over the immediately preceding 36-month period.

Any payments hereunder shall be made in a lump sum within thirty (30) days after the Date of Termination, or in the event Executive is a Specified Employee (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations §1.409A-1(i)), and to the extent necessary to avoid penalties under Code Section 409A, no payment shall be made to Executive prior to the first day of the seventh month following Executive’s Date of Termination.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the aggregate payments or benefits to be made or afforded to Executive under this Agreement, either as a stand-alone benefit or when aggregated with other payments to, or for the benefit of Executive, constitute an “excess parachute payment” under Code Section 280G, or any successor thereto, and in order to avoid such a result, Executive’s benefits hereunder shall be reduced, if necessary, to an amount, the value of which is one dollar ($1.00) less than an amount equal to three (3) times Executive’s “base amount,” as determined in accordance with Code Section 280G.

(e) For purposes of this Agreement, a “Separation from Service” shall have occurred if the Bank and Executive reasonably anticipate that either no further services will be performed by the Executive after the date of the Event of Termination (whether as an employee or as an independent contractor) or the level of further services performed will not exceed 49% of the average level of bona fide services in the 12 months immediately preceding the Event of Termination. For all purposes hereunder, the definition of Separation from Service shall be interpreted consistent with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)(ii). If Executive is a Specified Employee, as defined in Code Section 409A and any payment to be made under sub-paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section 4 shall be determined to be subject to Code Section 409A, then if required by Code Section 409A, such payment or a portion of such payment (to the minimum extent possible) shall be delayed and shall be paid on the first day of the seventh month following Executive’s Separation from Service.

For the avoidance of doubt, the non-renewal of this Agreement under Section 2(a), without the occurrence of one of the events set forth in this clause (ii), prior to the end of the term of this Agreement, shall not be considered an event that would permit the Executive to resign for Good Reason and receive a severance payment pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if applicable law prohibits (including, but not limited to, laws prohibiting discriminating in favor of highly compensated employees), or, if participation by the Executive is not permitted under the terms of the applicable health or life insurance plans, or if providing the benefits would subject the Bank to penalties, then the Bank shall pay the Executive a cash lump sum payment reasonably estimated to be equal to the value (or the remaining value) of the non-taxable medical and dental benefits, with the payment made in a lump sum on or before the 30th day following the Executive’s termination of employment, unless the payment is due in connection with a termination program involving more than one employee, in which case the payment shall be due within no more than the 60th day following the Executive’s termination of employment, or if later, the date on which the Bank determines that the insurance coverage (or the remainder of the insurance coverage) cannot be provided for the foregoing reasons, provided the Executive executes and does not revoke the Release. If providing a lump sum cash payment would result in a violation of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), then the cash payment(s) shall be made to the Executive at the time the premiums would otherwise have been paid. (d) For purposes of this Agreement, a “Separation from Service” shall have occurred if the Bank and the Executive reasonably anticipate that either no further services will be performed by the Executive after the date of the Event of Termination (whether as an employee or as an independent contractor) or the level of further services performed will not exceed 49% of the average level of bona fide services in the thirty-six (36) months immediately preceding the Event of Termination.

For purposes of determining the bonus(es) payable that would have been payable hereunder, the bonus(es) will be deemed to be equal to the average annual bonus paid over the prior three years. The payment shall be made in a lump sum on or before the 30th day following the Executive’s termination of employment, unless the payment is due in connection with a termination program involving more than one employee, in which case the payment shall be due within no more than the 60th day following the Executive’s termination of employment, provided the Executive executes and does not revoke the Release (as described below). The payment of severance will not be reduced in the event the Executive obtains other employment following his termination of employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive shall not be entitled to any payment or benefits under this Section 4 unless and until the Executive executes a general release of his claims against the Bank, the Company and any affiliate, and their officers, directors, successors and assigns, releasing said persons from any and all claims, rights, demands, causes of action, suits, arbitrations or grievances relating to the employment relationship, including claims under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, but not including claims for benefits under tax-qualified plans or other benefit plans in which the Executive is vested, claims for benefits required by applicable law or claims with respect to obligations set forth in this Agreement that survive the termination of this Agreement (the “Release”), with any such Release to be in a form prepared or approved by the Bank. (c) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination, the Bank shall provide, at the Bank’s expense, until the earlier of for the lesser of (i) the remaining unexpired term of the Agreement or (ii) the time at which the Executive receives coverage under another employer’s plan, nontaxable medical and dental coverage substantially comparable and in accordance with its customary co-pay percentages, as reasonably available, to the coverage maintained by the Bank for the Executive and his dependents prior to the Event of Termination, except to the extent the coverage may be changed in its application to all Bank employees and then the coverage provided to the Executive and his dependents shall be commensurate with the changed coverage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if applicable law prohibits (including, but not limited to, laws prohibiting discriminating in favor of highly compensated employees), or, if participation by the Executive is not permitted under the terms of the applicable health or life insurance plans, or if providing the benefits would subject the Bank to penalties, then the Bank shall pay the Executive a cash lump sum payment reasonably estimated to be equal to the value (or the remaining value) of the non-taxable medical and dental benefits, with the payment made in a lump sum on or before the 30th day following the Executive’s termination of employment, unless the payment is due in connection with a termination program involving more than one employee, in which case the payment shall be due within no more than the 60th day following the Executive’s termination of employment, or if later, the date on which the Bank determines that the insurance coverage (or the remainder of the insurance coverage) cannot be provided for the foregoing reasons, provided the Executive executes and does not revoke the Release. If providing a lump sum cash payment would result in a violation of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), then the cash payment(s) shall be made to the Executive at the time the premiums would otherwise have been paid. (d) For purposes of this Agreement, a “Separation from Service” shall have occurred if the Bank and the Executive reasonably anticipate that either no further services will be performed by the Executive after the date of the Event of Termination (whether as an employee or as an independent contractor) or the level of further services performed will not exceed 49% of the average level of bona fide services in the thirty-six (36) months immediately preceding the Event of Termination. For all purposes hereunder, the definition of Separation from Service shall be interpreted consistent with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)(ii). If the Executive is a “Specified Employee,” as defined in Code Section 409A, and any payment to be made under sub-paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section 4 is determined to be subject to Code Section 409A without any exception, then, if required by Code Section 409A, the payment or a portion of the payment (to the minimum extent possible) shall be delayed and paid on the first day of the seventh (7th) month following the Executive’s Separation from Service.

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in the event of a continuing breach of this Agreement by the Bank, Executive, after giving due notice within the prescribed time frame of an initial event specified above, shall not waive any of her rights under this Agreement and this Section solely by virtue of the fact that Executive has submitted her resignation, provided Executive has remained in the employment of the Bank and is engaged in good faith discussions to resolve any occurrence of an event described in clauses (A), (B), (C), (D) or (F) above.

Payment of the “permitted amount” shall be made within thirty (30) days following the Date of Termination. Any payment in excess of the permitted amount shall be made to Executive on the first day of the seventh month following the Date of Termination.

Any payments hereunder shall be made in a lump sum within thirty (30) days after the Date of Termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Executive is a Specified Employee (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations §1.409A-1(i)), then, to the extent necessary to avoid penalties under Code Section 409A, no payment shall be made to Executive prior to the first day of the seventh month following the Date of Termination in excess of the “permitted amount” under Code Section 409A. For these purposes, the “permitted amount” shall be an amount that does not exceed two times the lesser of: (i) the sum of Executive’s annualized compensation based upon the annual rate of pay for services provided to the Bank for the calendar year preceding the year in which occurs the Date of Termination or (ii) the maximum amount that may be taken into account under a tax-qualified plan pursuant to Code Section 401(a)(17) for the calendar year in which occurs the Date of Termination. Payment of the “permitted amount” shall be made within thirty (30) days following the Date of Termination. Any payment in excess of the permitted amount shall be made to Executive on the first day of the seventh month following the Date of Termination. Such payments shall not be reduced in the event Executive obtains other employment following termination of employment. (d) To the extent required under applicable law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination, the Bank will cause to be continued life insurance and non-taxable medical coverage substantially identical to the coverage maintained by the Bank for Executive and her family prior to Executive’s termination. (e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the aggregate payments or benefits to be made or afforded to Executive under this Section constitute an “excess parachute payment” under Code Section 280G or any successor thereto, and in order to avoid such a result, Executive’s benefits hereunder shall be reduced, if necessary, to an amount, the value of which is one dollar ($1.00) less than an amount equal to three (3) times Executive’s “base amount,” as determined in accordance with Code Section 280G. The allocation of the reduction required hereby shall be determined by Executive, provided, however, that if it is determined that such election by Executive shall be in violation of Code Section 409A, the allocation of the required reduction shall be pro-rata. (f) For purposes of Section 4, Event of Termination shall be construed to require a “Separation from Service” as defined in Code Section 409A and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. The Bank and Executive reasonably anticipate that the level of bona fide services Executive would perform, if any, after termination would permanently decrease to a level that is less than 50% of the average level of bona fide services performed (whether as an employee or an independent contractor) over the immediately preceding 36-month period.

For these purposes, a Change in Control of the Bank or the Company shall mean a change in control of a nature that: (i) would be required to be reported in response to Item 5.01 of the current report on Form 8-K, as in effect on the date hereof, pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”); or (ii) without limitation such a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred at such time as (a) any “person” (as the term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act), is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 25% or more of the combined voting power of Company’s outstanding securities except for any securities purchased by the Bank’s employee stock ownership plan or trust; or (b) individuals who constitute the Board of Directors of the Company on the date hereof (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose election was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors shall be, for purposes of this clause (b), considered as though he were a member of the Incumbent Board; or (c) a plan of reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Bank or the Company or similar transaction in which the Bank or Company is not the surviving institution occurs; or (d) a proxy statement is distributed soliciting proxies from stockholders of the Company, by someone other than the current management of the Company, seeking stockholder approval of a plan of reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Company or similar transaction with one or more corporations or financial institutions, and as a result of such proxy solicitation, a plan of reorganization, merger, consolidation or similar transaction involving the Company is approved by the requisite vote of the Company’s stockholders; or (e) a tender offer is made for 25% or more of the voting securities of the Company and the shareholders owning beneficially or of record 25% or more of the outstanding securities of the Company have tendered or offered to sell their shares pursuant to such tender offer and such tendered shares have been accepted by the tender offeror. (b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination, on the Date of Termination, as defined in Section 9(b), the Bank shall be obligated to pay Executive, or, in the event of his subsequent death, his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be, as severance pay or liquidated damages, or both, an amount equal to the sum of: (i) his earned but unpaid salary as of the date of his termination of employment with the Bank; (ii) the benefits, if any, to which he is entitled as a former employee under the employee benefit plans and programs and compensation plans and programs maintained for the benefit of the Bank’s or Company’s officers and employees; (iii) the remaining Base Salary and incentive compensation or bonus payments that Executive would have earned, in accordance with Sections 3(a) and 3(b), if he had continued his employment with the Bank for a thirty-six (36) month period following his termination of employment, and had earned a bonus and/or incentive award in each year equal in amount to the average bonus and/or incentive award earned by him over the three calendar years preceding the year in which the termination occurs in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 5(a)(i) or 5(a)(ii), or the highest annual bonus and/or incentive award earned by him in any of the three calendar years preceding the year in which the termination occurs in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 5(a)(iii). Any payments hereunder shall be made in a lump sum within thirty (30) days after the Date of Termination, or in the event Executive is a Specified Employee (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations §1.409A-1(i)), and to the extent necessary to avoid penalties under Code Section 409A, no payment shall be made to Executive prior to the first day of the seventh month following Executive’s Date of Termination. Such payments shall not be reduced in the event Executive obtains other employment following termination of employment. (c) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination, the Bank will cause to be continued life insurance and non-taxable, medical and dental and disability coverage substantially identical to the coverage maintained by the Bank for Executive and his family prior to Executive’s termination. Such coverage shall continue at the Bank’s expense for a period of eighteen (18) months from the Date of Termination. If the Bank cannot provide one or more of the benefits set forth in this paragraph because Executive is no longer an employee, applicable rules and regulations prohibit such benefits or the payment of such benefits in the manner contemplated, would subject the Bank or Executive to penalties, then the Bank shall pay the Executive, to the extent possible under Code Section 409A, a cash lump sum payment reasonably estimated to be equal to the value of such benefits, with value to be determined by the policy premium paid for such coverage by the Bank, or for self insured benefits provided by the Bank, the fully equivalent rate(s) provided by the insurance provider(s), as applicable. Such cash lump sum payment shall be made within thirty (30) days after the Date of Termination, (or if later, the date on which it is determined that providing such benefits would subject the Bank or Executive to penalties, or in the event Executive is a Specified Employee (with the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(i)), and to the extent necessary to avoid penalties under Code Section 409A, no payment shall be made to Executive prior to the first day of the seventh month following Executive’s Date of Termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if making a lump sum payment for any portion of such amount would violate Code Section 409A as an “impermissible acceleration,” then such portion would be paid to the Executive at the same time and in the same manner as the premiums for such benefit(s) would otherwise have been paid. (d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the aggregate payments or benefits to be made or afforded to Executive under this Agreement, either as a stand-alone benefit or when aggregated with other payments to, or for the benefit of Executive, constitute an “excess parachute payment” under Code Section 280G, or any successor thereto, and in order to avoid such a result, Executive’s benefits hereunder shall be reduced, if necessary, to an amount, the value of which is one dollar ($1.00) less than an amount equal to three (3) times Executive’s “base amount,” as determined in accordance with Code Section 280G. The allocation of the reduction required hereby shall be determined by Executive, provided, however, that if it is determined that such election by Executive shall be in violation of Code Section 409A, the allocation of the required reduction shall be pro-rata. (e) This Agreement is intended to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A (including the exceptions thereto), to the extent applicable, and the Bank shall administer and interpret this Agreement in accordance with such requirements. If any provision contained in this Agreement conflicts with the requirements of Code Section 409A (or the exemptions intended to apply under this Agreement), this Agreement shall be deemed to be reformed to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A (or the applicable exemptions thereto). For purposes of Section 5, an “Event of Termination” as used herein shall mean “Separation from Service” as defined in Code Section 409A and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, provided, however, that the Bank and Executive reasonably anticipate that the level of bona fide services Executive would perform after termination would permanently decrease to a level that is less than 50% of the average level of bona fide services performed (whether as an employee or an independent contractor) over the immediately preceding 36-month period. (f) Any payments or benefits payable as a result of an Event of Termination under Sections 5(a)(i) or 5(a)(ii) shall be contingent on Executive’s execution and non-revocation of a release (the “Release”), satisfactory to the Bank and the Company, of all claims that Executive or any of Executive’s affiliates or beneficiaries may have against the Bank, the Company or any affiliate, and their officers, directors, successors and assigns, releasing said persons from any and all claims, rights, demands, causes of action, suits, arbitrations or grievances relating to Executive’s employment relationship, including claims under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”), but not including claims for benefits under tax-qualified plans or other benefit plans in which Executive is vested, claims for benefits required by applicable law or claims with respect to obligations set forth in this Agreement that survive the termination of this Agreement. In order to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the ADEA, the Release must be provided to Executive no later than the date of his Separation from Service and Executive, the Company and the Bank must execute the Release within twenty-one (21) days (or such longer period as may be required by applicable law) after the date of termination without subsequent revocation by Executive within seven (7) days after execution of the Release. (g) Executive may voluntarily terminate his employment during the term of this Agreement (other than for Good Reason) upon at least ninety (90) days prior written notice to the Board of Directors of the Bank. In its discretion, the Board of Directors may accelerate Executive’s termination date. Upon Executive’s voluntary termination, he will receive only his compensation and vested rights and benefits to the date of his termination. Following his voluntary termination of employment under this Section 5(f), Executive will be subject to the requirements and restrictions set forth in Sections 11(a) and 11(c) of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall not be entitled to any payments or benefits under this Section 4 unless and until (i) Executive executes a release of her claims against the Bank, the Company and any affiliate, and their officers, directors, successors and assigns, releasing said persons from any and all claims, rights, demands, causes of action, suits, arbitrations or grievances relating to the employment relationship, including claims under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, but not including claims for benefits under tax-qualified plans or other benefit plans in which Executive is vested, claims for benefits required by applicable law or claims with respect to obligations set forth in this Agreement that survive the termination of this Agreement (the “Release”), and (ii) the payments and benefits shall begin on the 30th day following the date of the Executive’s Separation from Service, provided that before that date, the Executive has signed (and not revoked) the Release and the Release is irrevocable under the time period set forth under applicable law. (c) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination, the Bank shall pay Executive, or in the event of her subsequent death, her beneficiary or beneficiaries, or her estate, as the case may be, a lump sum cash payment reasonably estimated to be equal to the present value of the contributions that would have been made on the Executive’s behalf under the Bank’s defined contribution plans (e.g., 401(k) Plan, ESOP, and any other defined contribution plan maintained by the Bank), as if Executive had continued working for the Bank for the remaining unexpired term of the Agreement following such Event of Termination, earning the salary that would have been achieved during such period. Such payments shall be paid in a lump sum within thirty (30) days of the Executive’s Separation from Service and shall not be reduced in the event Executive obtains other employment following the Event of Termination. (d) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination, the Bank shall provide, at the Bank’s expense, for the remaining unexpired term of the Agreement, nontaxable medical and dental coverage and life insurance coverage substantially comparable, as reasonably available, to the coverage maintained by the Bank for Executive prior to the Event of Termination, except to the extent such coverage may be changed in its application to all Bank employees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if applicable law (including, but not limited to, laws prohibiting discriminating in favor of highly compensated employees), or, if participation by the Executive is not permitted under the terms of the applicable health plans, or if providing such benefits would subject the Bank to penalties, then the Bank shall pay the Executive a cash lump sum payment reasonably estimated to be equal to the cost of such non-taxable medical and dental benefits, with such payment to be made by lump sum within thirty (30) business days of the Date of Termination, or if later, the date on which the Bank determines that such insurance coverage (or the remainder of such insurance coverage) cannot be provided for the foregoing reasons. (e) For purposes of this Agreement, a “Separation from Service” shall have occurred if the Bank and Executive reasonably anticipate that either no further services will be performed by the Executive after the date of the Event of Termination (whether as an employee or as an independent contractor) or the level of further services performed will not exceed 49% of the average level of bona fide services in the 12 months immediately preceding the Event of
