Related to Transfer of Baudax Employees General Principles

• PAYMENTS TO EXECUTIVE UPON CHANGE IN CONTROL (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Bank or the Company (as herein defined) followed at any time during the term of this Agreement by the voluntary or involuntary termination of the Executive’s employment, other than for Cause, as defined in Section 2(c) hereof, the provisions of Section 3 shall apply. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Executive shall have the right to elect to voluntarily terminate his employment at any time during the term of this Agreement following any demotion, loss of title, office or significant authority, reduction in his annual compensation or benefits, or relocation of his principal place of employment by more than 30 miles from its location immediately prior to the Change in Control.

• Limitation on Rights; No Right to Future Grants; Extraordinary Item of Compensation By accepting this Agreement and the grant of the Restricted Units contemplated hereunder, the Participant expressly acknowledges that (a) the Plan is discretionary in nature and may be suspended or terminated by the Corporation at any time; (b) the grant of Restricted Units is a one-time benefit that does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of restricted units, or benefits in lieu of restricted units; (c) all determinations with respect to future grants of restricted units, if any, including the grant date, the number of Shares granted and the restricted period, will be at the sole discretion of the Corporation; (d) the Participant’s participation in the Plan is voluntary; (e) the value of the Restricted Units is an extraordinary item of compensation that is outside the scope of the Participant’s employment contract, if any, and nothing can or must automatically be inferred from such employment contract or its consequences; (f) grants of restricted units are not part of normal or expected compensation for any purpose and are not to be used for calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments, and the Participant waives any claim on such basis; and (g) the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty. In addition, the Participant understands, acknowledges and agrees that the Participant will have no rights to compensation or damages related to restricted unit proceeds in consequence of the termination of the Participant’s employment for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of contract.

• Effect of Change in Control In the event of a Change in Control, except to the extent that the Committee determines to cash out the Option in accordance with Section 13.1(c) of the Plan, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing corporation or other business entity or parent thereof, as the case may be (the “Acquiror”), may, without the consent of the Participant, assume or continue in full force and effect the Company’s rights and obligations under all or any portion of the Option or substitute for all or any portion of the Option a substantially equivalent option for the Acquiror’s stock. For purposes of this Section, the Option or any portion thereof shall be deemed assumed if, following the Change in Control, the Option confers the right to receive, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Option Agreement, for each share of Stock subject to such portion of the Option immediately prior to the Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, other securities or property or a combination thereof) to which a holder of a share of Stock on the effective date of the Change in Control was entitled; provided, however, that if such consideration is not solely common stock of the Acquiror, the Committee may, with the consent of the Acquiror, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Option for each share of Stock to consist solely of common stock of the Acquiror equal in Fair Market Value to the per share consideration received by holders of Stock pursuant to the Change in Control. The Option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding effective as of the time of consummation of the Change in Control to the extent that the Option is neither assumed or continued by the Acquiror in connection with the Change in Control nor exercised as of the time of the Change in Control.

• Transfer of Incentive Distribution Rights The General Partner or any other holder of Incentive Distribution Rights may transfer any or all of its Incentive Distribution Rights without the approval of any Limited Partner or any other Person.

• Transfers Generally Tenant shall not assign, transfer, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise transfer this Lease or any interest therein, nor sublease the whole or any part of the Leased Premises, nor shall this Lease or any interest hereunder be assignable or transferable by any process or proceeding of any court, or otherwise (each of the foregoing being a "Transfer"), without in each case first obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Any such Transfer or transaction undertaken without Landlord's prior written consent shall be null and void. In determining whether to grant consent to a proposed Transfer, Landlord may reasonably consider any relevant factor, including but not limited to the experience and business reputation of the proposed assignee, sublessee, or transferee in operating its business; whether the use of the Leased Premises following the Transfer is similar to that of Tenant, or otherwise reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and appropriate for a first-class high rise office building in the Bellevue Central Business District; whether the other party to the proposed Transfer is a person with whom Landlord is presently negotiating for a lease of space in the Building or in any other building owned by an Affiliate of Landlord; whether the other party to the proposed Transfer is a governmental agency or any party by whom any suit or action could be defended on the ground of sovereign immunity; notwithstanding that Tenant and/or others remain liable under the Lease, whether the proposed assignee, sublessee, or transferee has a net worth, and financial strength and credit record, satisfactory to Landlord (provided that if the financial condition of the proposed assignee, sublessee, or transferee is at least equal to the net worth of Tenant or Guarantor (whichever is greater) at the time of this Lease it shall be satisfactory to Landlord); whether use of the Leased Premises by the proposed assignee, sublessee, or transferee will not violate or create any potential violation of any laws; whether the type and quality of the business to be operated or likely to be operated by the proposed assignee, sublessee, or transferee is consistent with the image of a first-class office building and whether it would be considered inappropriate for such an office building (provided that Tenant's use is deemed to be an appropriate use and business); and whether Landlord's consent might result in a breach of any other lease or agreement to which Landlord is a party. No Transfer shall relieve Tenant or Guarantor of any liability under this Lease or Guarantee of Lease. A Transfer includes, without limitation (and the following shall be deemed to be deemed a "Transfer"): (i) a consolidation or merger of Tenant; (ii) a change in the ownership or voting rights of more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the issued and outstanding stock of any corporate tenant; (iii) any sublease, assignment or transfer which would otherwise occur by operation of law, merger, consolidation, reorganization, transfer or other significant change in corporate or proprietary structure; (iv) the sale, assignment or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, with or without the specific assignment of this Lease; and (v) a change in control in any partnership tenant; provided, however, the foregoing shall not be considered Transfers requiring Landlord's consent so long as Tenant or Guarantor is an entity whose outstanding stock is listed on a recognized security exchange, or if at least 80% of the voting stock of Tenant or Guarantor is owned by another entity, the voting stock of which is so listed. The acceptance by Landlord of any amounts following any transaction prohibited hereunder shall not be deemed to be a consent by Landlord nor shall the same be deemed to be a waiver of any right or remedy of Landlord hereunder. Consent to any such Transfer shall not operate as a waiver of the necessity for consent to any subsequent Transfer. If Landlord's consent is requested for a Transfer, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease with respect to that portion of the Leased Premises for which such consent is requested, at the proposed effective date of such assignment, sublease or transfer, and enter into the relationship of Landlord and Tenant with the proposed assignee, subtenant, or transferee based on the rent (and/or other compensation) and term agreed to by such assignee, subtenant or transferee and otherwise upon the terms and conditions of this Lease. In connection with any proposed Transfer, Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord with fully executed copies of all documents and instruments related to the proposed Transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord's prior consent to a Transfer to an Affiliate of Xxxxx Xxxxx, Inc. shall not be required provided: (i) the Transfer shall only be effective as long as the Affiliate receiving the Transfer is and at all times during the Lease Term remains an Affiliate of Xxxxx Xxxxx, Inc.; (ii) neither Tenant nor Guarantor is released or relieved of any liability or obligations under this Lease or the Guarantee of Lease, or both, and each expressly reaffirms the foregoing to Landlord in writing; (iii) Tenant is not in default under or in breach of this Lease; and (iv) Tenant notified Landlord in writing of the Transfer to an Affiliate at least ten (10) days prior to the Transfer.

• Allocation of Registration Opportunities In any circumstance in which all of the Registrable Securities and other shares of the Company with registration rights (the “Other Shares”) requested to be included in a registration contemplated by Section 2(a) cannot be so included as a result of limitations of the aggregate number of shares of Registrable Securities and Other Shares that may be so included, the number of shares of Registrable Securities and Other Shares that may be so included shall be allocated among the Holders and Other Shareholders requesting inclusion of shares pro rata on the basis of the number of shares of Registrable Securities and Other Shares held by such Holders and Other Shareholders; provided, however, that such allocation shall not operate to reduce the aggregate number of Registrable Securities and Other Shares to be included in such registration, if any Holder or Other Shareholder does not request inclusion of the maximum number of shares of Registrable Securities and Other Shares allocated to such Holder or Other Shareholder pursuant to the above-described procedure, then the remaining portion of such allocation shall be reallocated among those requesting Holders and Other Shareholders whose allocations did not satisfy their requests pro rata on the basis of the number of shares of Registrable Securities and Other Shares which would be held by such Holders and Other Shareholders, assuming conversion, and this procedure shall be repeated until all of the shares of Registrable Securities and Other Shares which may be included in the registration on behalf of the Holders and Other Shareholders have been so allocated.

• Status of Shares and Limitation of Personal Liability Shares shall be deemed to be personal property giving only the rights provided in this instrument and the By-Laws of the Trust. Every Shareholder by virtue of having become a Shareholder shall be held to have expressly assented and agreed to the terms hereof. The death of a Shareholder during the existence of the Trust shall not operate to terminate the Trust, nor entitle the representative of any deceased Shareholder to an accounting or to take any action in court or elsewhere against the Trust or the Trustees, but shall entitle such representative only to the rights of said deceased Shareholder under this Declaration of Trust. Ownership of Shares shall not entitle a Shareholder to any title in or to the whole or any part of the Trust Property or right to call for a partition or division of the same or for an accounting, nor shall the ownership of Shares constitute the Shareholders as partners or joint venturers. Neither the Trust nor the Trustees, nor any officer, employee or agent of the Trust shall have any power to bind personally any Shareholder, or to call upon any Shareholder for the payment of any sum of money or assessment whatsoever other than such as the Shareholder may at any time agree to pay.

• Definition of Change in Control For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events:

• Acknowledgement of Discretionary Nature of the Plan; No Vested Rights By accepting the Restricted Stock Units, the Participant consents to participation in the Plan and acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan. The Participant understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and in its sole discretion granted Restricted Stock Units under the Plan to individuals who may be Participants of the Company or its subsidiaries throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any of its subsidiaries on an ongoing basis. Consequently, the Participant understands that the Restricted Stock Units are granted on the assumption and condition that the Restricted Stock Units and the Shares acquired upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any of its subsidiaries) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. In addition, the Participant understands that this grant would not be made to the Participant but for the assumptions and conditions referenced above; thus, the Participant acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason the Restricted Stock Units shall be null and void. The Participant understands and agrees that, as a condition of the Restricted Stock Units, unless otherwise provided in Section 4 (Termination of Employment) of the Agreement, any unvested Restricted Stock Units as of the date the Participant ceases active employment will be forfeited without entitlement to the underlying Shares or to any amount of indemnification in the event of termination of employment or service. The Participant acknowledges that the Participant has read and specifically accepts the conditions referred to in the Agreement regarding the impact of a termination on the Restricted Stock Units.
