Rights of Participants Any participant in a Lender's interests hereunder may assert any claim for yield protection under Section 4.03 that it could have asserted if it were a Lender hereunder. If such a claim is asserted by any such participant, it shall be entitled to receive such compensation from the Borrower as a Lender would receive in like circumstances; provided, however, that with respect to any such claim, the Borrower shall have no greater liability to the Lender and its participant, in the aggregate, than it would have had to the Lender alone had no such participation interest been created.
Nontransferability; Death or Disability of Optionee This option shall not be transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable during Optionee’s lifetime only by Optionee. If Optionee dies while serving as a director or an employee of the Bancorp or a subsidiary corporation, or during the three (3) month period referred to in Paragraph 4 hereof, this option shall expire one (1) year after the date of Optionee’s death or on the day specified in Paragraph 2 hereof, whichever is earlier. After Optionee’s death but before such expiration, the persons to whom Optionee’s rights under this option shall have passed by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or the executor or administrator of Optionee’s estate shall have the right to exercise this option as to those shares for which installments had accrued under Paragraph 2 hereof as of the date on which Optionee ceased to be a director or an employee of the Bancorp or a subsidiary corporation. If Optionee terminates his or her directorship or employment because of disability (as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), Optionee may exercise this option to the extent he or she is entitled to do so at the date of termination, at any time within one (1) year of the date of termination, or before the expiration date specified in Paragraph 2 hereof, whichever is earlier.

Limitations on Rights of Participants A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.12 or 2.13 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.14(e) as though it were a Lender.
