Payments Subject to Section 409A (a) Subject to this Section 4.3, payments or benefits under Section 4.1 shall begin only upon the date of a “separation from service” of the Executive (determined as set forth below) that occurs on or after the termination of the Executive’s employment. The following rules shall apply with respect to distribution of the payments and benefits, if any, to be provided to the Executive under Section 4.1:
(i) It is intended that each installment of the payments and benefits provided under Section 4.1 shall be treated as a separate “payment” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code and the guidance issued thereunder (“Section 409A”). Neither the Company nor the Executive shall have the right to accelerate or defer the delivery of any such payments or benefits except to the extent specifically permitted or required by Section 409A.
(ii) If, as of the date of the “separation from service” of the Executive from the Company, the Executive is not a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Section 409A), then each installment of the payments and benefits shall be made on the dates and terms set forth in Section 4.1.
(iii) If, as of the date of the “separation from service” of the Executive from the Company, the Executive is a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Section 409A), then:
(A) Each installment of the severance payments and benefits due under Section 4.1 that, in accordance with the dates and terms set forth herein, will in all circumstances, regardless of when the separation from service occurs, be paid within the short-term deferral period (as defined in Section 409A) shall be treated as a short-term deferral within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) to the maximum extent permissible under Section 409A; and
(B) Each installment of the payments and benefits due under Section 4.1 that is not described in Section 4.3(a)(iii)(A) and that would, absent this subsection, be paid within the six-month period following the “separation from service” of the Executive from the Company shall not be paid until the date that is six months and one day after such separation from service (or, if earlier, the Executive’s death), with any such installments that are required to be delayed being accumulated during the six-month period and paid in a lump sum on the date that is six months and one day following the Executive’s separation from service and any subsequent installments, if any, being paid in accordance with the dates and terms set forth herein; provided, however, that the preceding provisions of this sentence shall not apply to any installment of payments and benefits if and to the maximum extent that that such installment is deemed to be paid under a separation pay plan that does not provide for a deferral of compensation by reason of the application of Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) (relating to separation pay upon an involuntary separation from service). Any installments that qualify for the exception under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) must be paid no later than the last day of the Executive’s second taxable year following his taxable year in which the separation from service occurs.
(b) The determination of whether and when a separation from service of the Executive from the Company has occurred shall be made in a manner consistent with, and based on the presumptions set forth in, Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h). Solely for purposes of this Section 4.3(b), “Company” shall include all persons with whom the Company would be considered a single employer as determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)(3).
Separate Payments Each installment payment required under this Agreement shall be considered a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A.
Limitations on Payments The Bank may terminate access to the Bank’s ATM and/or Visa Debit Card Services at any time for any reason, including without limitation (i) with respect to any recipient of transfers, if the Bank believes in its sole discretion that there are an excessive number of disputes involving customer use, or (ii) with respect to any third party, if the Bank believes in its sole discretion that the third party has initiated disputes without reasonable cause or in bad faith. The Bank also may reject a transaction or restrict your access to the Website to make further transactions at any time if it believes the security of your accounts or the Website is at risk or any fraudulent or illegal activity may be occurring, including evidence of unusual activity in your accounts. Limitations on Transfers Your Card transactions will be subject to daily limits as follows*: • Cash withdrawal from an ATM using an ATM card - $310.00 • Cash withdrawal from an ATM using a Visa® Debit card - $1,010.00 • Point-of-sale transaction using your Visa® Debit card - $2,500.00 * For security reasons, we may further limit these amounts from time to time without notice. Non-sufficient funds activity involving an ATM or Visa Debit Card may result in decreased daily limits or revocation of the card. Charges for Use of Your Card. We do not charge you a fee to use your Card at an ATM or to make a POS transaction. However, ATM transactions may be subject to a fee or surcharge assessed by the terminal owner, for which you will be reimbursed by the Bank up to the amount per month which corresponds to the type of account you have. Preauthorization Payments Holds When you use your Card at a point of sale location or when you use the Visa or other network enhancement feature of the Cards to obtain goods or services or to obtain cash, the merchant may attempt to obtain preauthorization from us for the transaction. When the preauthorization is approved by us, we immediately debit the preauthorized amount from your designated Account. The amount you actually approved or signed for may vary in some cases from the amount of the actual purchase, depending on the merchant's request. If the preauthorization request varies from the amount of the actual transaction, payment of the transaction (which usually occurs within two to five days) will adjust the amount previously deducted from your designated Account. This process may affect the availability of funds from your designated Account to pay checks or for other electronic fund transfers. Since all transactions are immediately posted to your designated Account, please check your current balance on the Website. We will not be responsible for damages for wrongful dishonor if any items are not paid because the amount requested by the merchant was different from the actual amount you approved. Using your Card for International Transactions If you use your Card to obtain cash or to purchase goods or services in another country, the amount of the charge in foreign currency will be converted to a U.S. dollar amount by the applicable network (e.g. Visa, MasterCard, etc.). In making this conversion, the network will use the procedures set forth in its operating regulations. Conversion to U.S. dollars may occur on a date other than the date of the transaction; therefore, the currency conversion rate may be different from the conversion rate in effect on the transaction date. You understand that we do not determine the currency conversion rate that is used, and we do not receive any portion of the currency conversion rate. Documentation of Transfers • Receipts: You have a right to receive a receipt at ATMs and POS terminals that accept your ATM and/or Visa debit cards each time you make a transaction. • Preauthorized Credits: If you have arranged to have direct deposits made to your account at least once every 60 days from the same person or company, you can call us at 000.000.0000 to find out whether or not the deposit has been made. • Periodic Statements: You will also be able to view your bank statement and transaction history on the Website. Lost or Stolen Card or Unauthorized Transactions Notify us immediately if your ATM Card, Visa Debit Card or PIN or other access code has been lost or stolen or used without your permission. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. You could lose all your money in your account plus your maximum Overdraft Line of Credit. In Case of Errors or Questions about Your Electronic Transfers Telephone Customer Service at 0-000-000-0000, email, or write us at UFB Direct, P.O. Box 509127, San Diego, CA 92150, as soon as you can if you think your online statement or receipt is wrong or if you need more information about a transfer listed on the online statement or receipt. We must hear from you NO LATER than 60 days after your FIRST online statement on which the problem or error has appeared. In your communication to us, be prepared to provide us with the following information: • Your name and Account number (if any). • A description of the error or the transfer you are unsure about, and explain as clearly as you can why you believe it is an error or why you need more information. • The dollar amount of the suspected error. If you tell us orally, we may require that you send your complaint or question in writing within 10 business days. We will determine whether an error occurred within 10 business days (20 business days for new accounts) after we hear from you and will correct the error, promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days (90 days for new accounts, point-of-sale, or foreign-initiated transactions) to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will provisionally credit your account within 10 business days (20 business days for new accounts) for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have the use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. If we ask you to put your questions or complaint in writing and we do not receive it within 10 business days, we may not credit your account. For disputes involving the unauthorized use of your Visa Debit Card for Visa point-of-sale transactions, we will provisionally credit your Account within 5 business days. Under the Visa Rules, we may withhold provisional credit to the extent allowed under applicable law if we determine that the circumstances or account history warrants the delay. The Visa Rules do not apply to ATM transactions, certain commercial card transactions, PIN or other transactions not processed over the V network. We will tell you the results within three (3) business days after completing our investigation. If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation. You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation. Electronic Transaction Cancellations If you have arranged with us in advance to make regular periodic payments out of your designated Account using our Electronic Bill Payment Service, you can stop any of those payments by following these procedures: • Sign on to the Website and cancel the future payments using the procedure as called for in the Bill Payment section. • Call Customer Service, write the Bank, or e-mail in time for us to receive your request three or more business days before the payment is scheduled to be made. If you call, we may require you to put your request in writing so that it reaches us within 14 days after your call. Liability of Bank for Failure to Stop Payment of Preauthorized Transfer If you order us to stop one of these payments 3 business days or more before the transfer is scheduled, and we do not do so, we will be liable for your losses or damages. Your Liability for Unauthorized Electronic Funds Transfers You can lose no more than $50.00 if someone used your Card without your permission, if you tell us within two business days, subject to Visa’s Zero Liability policy. If you do NOT tell us within two business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your Card or other Access Device, and we can prove we could have stopped the unauthorized transactions if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.00. Also if your on-line statement shows transactions that you did not make, TELL US AT ONCE. If you do not tell us within 60 days after the daily transactions (Periodic Statement) are provided to you on the Website, you may not get back any money you lost after the 60 days if we can prove that we could have prevented the transactions if you had told us in time. If a good reason (such as a long trip or a hospital stay) kept you from telling us, let us know. We may extend the time periods. You agree that you will not reveal your User ID, Password, PIN, or any other Access Device to any person not authorized by you to use your Access Devices; not write your PIN or Password on your ATM and/or VISA Debit Cards or on any item kept with your Access Devices; and not leave a computer terminal unattended after you have logged in using your Password or other Access Device.

Subordination and Late Payments Subordination 15 Section 5.2 Late Payments by Corporate Taxpayer 15 ARTICLE VI NO DISPUTES; CONSISTENCY; COOPERATION
Provisions are severable Each of the terms and conditions of this agreement is severable and distinct from one another and if at any time any one or more of the terms and conditions of this agreement or any part thereof is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions will not thereby be affected or impaired in any way.
Limitations on Payments Made in Dissolution Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, the Member shall only be entitled to look solely to the assets of Company for the return of its positive Capital Account balance and shall have no recourse for its Capital Contribution and/or share of net income (upon dissolution or otherwise) against any Manager.
Additional Section 409A Provisions Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary—
(a) Any payment otherwise required to be made hereunder to Executive at any date as a result of the termination of Executive’s employment shall be delayed for such period of time as may be necessary to meet the requirements of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code (the “Delay Period”). On the first business day following the expiration of the Delay Period, Executive shall be paid, in a single cash lump sum, an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all payments delayed pursuant to the preceding sentence, and any remaining payments not so delayed shall continue to be paid pursuant to the payment schedule set forth herein.
(b) Each payment in a series of payments hereunder shall be deemed to be a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.
(c) To the extent that any right to reimbursement of expenses or payment of any benefit in-kind under this Agreement constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code), (i) any such expense reimbursement shall be made by the Company no later than the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expense was incurred by Executive, (ii) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (iii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits to be provided in any other taxable year; provided, that the foregoing clause shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Section 105(b) of the Code solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect.
(d) While the payments and benefits provided hereunder are intended to be structured in a manner to avoid the implication of any penalty taxes under Section 409A of the Code, in no event whatsoever shall the Company or any of its affiliates be liable for any additional tax, interest, or penalties that may be imposed on Executive as a result of Section 409A of the Code or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A of the Code (other than for withholding obligations or other obligations applicable to employers, if any, under Section 409A of the Code).
Compliance with Section 409A of the Code All payments and benefits payable under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Section 409A Payments) are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Certain payments and benefits payable under this Agreement are intended to be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with the applicable requirements of, and exemptions from, Section 409A of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. To the extent the payments and benefits under this Agreement are subject to Section 409A of the Code, this Agreement shall be interpreted, construed and administered in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Sections 409A(a)(2), (3) and (4) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder If the Company and the Executive determine that any compensation, benefits or other payments that are payable under this Agreement and intended to comply with Sections 409A(a)(2), (3) and (4) of the Code do not comply with Section 409A of the Code, the Treasury Regulations thereunder and other applicable authority issued by the Internal Revenue Service, to the extent permitted under Section 409A of the Code, the Treasury Regulations thereunder and any applicable authority issued by the Internal Revenue Service, the Company and the Executive agree to amend this Agreement, or take such other actions as the Company and the Executive deem reasonably necessary or appropriate, to cause such compensation, benefits and other payments to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, the Treasury Regulations thereunder and other applicable authority issued by the Internal Revenue Service, while providing compensation, benefits and other payments that are, in the aggregate, no less favorable than the compensation, benefits and other payments provided under this Agreement. In the case of any compensation, benefits or other payments that are payable under this Agreement and intended to comply with Sections 409A(a)(2), (3) and (4) of the Code, if any provision of the Agreement would cause such compensation, benefits or other payments to fail to so comply, such provision shall not be effective and shall be null and void with respect to such compensation, benefits or other payments to the extent such provision would cause a failure to comply, and such provision shall otherwise remain in full force and effect.
Limitation on Payments and Benefits Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any amount or benefit to be paid or provided under this Agreement would be an “Excess Parachute Payment,” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, but for the application of this sentence, then the payments and benefits to be paid or provided under this Agreement shall be reduced to the minimum extent necessary (but in no event to less than zero) so that no portion of any such payment or benefit, as so reduced, constitutes an Excess Parachute Payment; provided, however, that the foregoing reduction shall be made only if and to the extent that such reduction would result in an increase in the aggregate payment and benefits to be provided, determined on an after-tax basis (taking into account the excise tax imposed pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code, any tax imposed by any comparable provision of state law, and any applicable federal, state and local income and employment taxes). Whether requested by the Executive or the Company, the determination of whether any reduction in such payments or benefits to be provided under this Agreement or otherwise is required pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be made at the expense of the Company by the Company’s independent accountant. The fact that the Executive’s right to payments or benefits may be reduced by reason of the limitations contained in this Section 9.3 shall not of itself limit or otherwise affect any other rights of the Executive other than pursuant to this Agreement. In the event that any payment or benefit intended to be provided under this Agreement or otherwise is required to be reduced pursuant to this Section 9.3, cash Severance Benefits payable hereunder shall be reduced first, then other cash payments that qualify as Excess Parachute Payments payable to the Executive, then non-cash benefits shall be reduced, as determined by the Company.
