With respect to benefits set forth in this subsection (c), to the extent possible, all insurance premium and/or benefit payments by the Company shall be made so as to be exempt from Code Section 409A, and for the purposes thereof, each payment shall be treated as a separate payment under Code Section 409A.

After the group health benefits hereunder have expired, the Employee and his dependents shall be eligible to elect continuation of health insurance coverage under COBRA and shall be responsible for the applicable premiums under COBRA. With respect to any other premiums or amounts payable under this Section 6.3(c), to the extent that such amounts are taxable and not otherwise exempt from deferred compensation under Code Section 409A, the Employee shall pay the premiums for such coverage and the Company shall promptly reimburse the Employee upon Employee’s submission of reasonable documentation of such premiums, and the Company’s payment of such reimbursements or any other benefits under this Section 6.3(c) shall be subject to the following: (i) all amounts to be paid under this paragraph and that are includable in Employee’s income shall only be paid if such expenses are incurred during the 2 year period after the Termination Date; (ii) any amount reimbursable or paid in one tax year shall not affect the amount to be reimbursed or paid in another tax year; (iii) if Employee is reimbursed for any expenses hereunder, he must provide the Company with reasonable documentation of such expenses; (iv) payments for such expenses will be made in cash promptly after the expenses are incurred but in no event later than the end of Employee’s taxable year following the tax year in which the expenses are incurred; and (v) the payments under this paragraph cannot be substituted for another benefit. (d) the Company shall pay to the Employee, in equal semi-monthly installments, the Employee’s Base Salary (as in effect on the Date of Termination) for 12 months after the Date of Termination.
Without Cause or for Good Reason If, during the Employment Period, the Company shall terminate the Executive's employment without Cause or the Executive shall terminate his employment for Good Reason: (i) The Executive shall be paid, in a single lump sum payment within 60 days after the Date of Termination, the aggregate amount of (A) the Executive's earned but unpaid Base Salary and accrued vacation pay through the Date of Termination, and any Annual bonus required to be paid to the Executive pursuant to Section 2(b)(ii) above for any fiscal year of the Company that ends on or before the Date of Termination to the extent not previously paid (the "Accrued Obligations"), and (B) two (the "Severance Multiple") times the sum of (x) the annual Base Salary in effect on the Termination Date plus (y) the average Annual Bonus received by the Executive for the three complete fiscal years (or such lesser number of years as the Executive has been employed by the Company) of the Company immediately prior to the Termination Date (the "Severance Amount"); (ii) At the time when annual bonuses are paid to the Company's other senior executives for the fiscal year of the Company in which the Date of Termination occurs, the Executive shall be paid an Annual Bonus in an amount equal to the product of (x) the amount of the Annual Bonus to which the Executive would have been entitled if the Executive's employment had not been terminated, and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in such fiscal year through the Date of Termination and the denominator of which is the total number of days in such fiscal year (a "Pro-Rated Annual Bonus"); (iii) For a period of years equal to the Severance Multiple, the Company shall continue to provide the Executive and the Executive's eligible family members with group health insurance coverage at least equal to that which would have been provided to them if the Executive's employment had not been terminated; provided, however, that if the Executive becomes re-employed with another employer and is eligible to receive group health insurance coverage under another employer's plans, the Company's obligations under this Section 4(a)(iii) shall be reduced to the extent comparable coverage is actually provided to the Executive and the Executive's eligible family members, and any such coverage shall be reported by the Executive to the Company. (iv) The Company shall, at its sole expense and on an as-incurred basis, provide the Executive with outplacement services the scope and provider of which shall be reasonable and consistent with industry practice for similarly situated executives; and (v) To the extent not theretofore paid or provided, the Company shall timely pay or provide to the Executive any vested benefits and other amounts or benefits required to be paid or provided or which the Executive is eligible to receive under any plan, program, policy or practice or contract or agreement of the Company and its affiliates (such other amounts and benefits shall be hereinafter referred to as the "Other Benefits"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, it shall be a condition to the Executive's right to receive the amounts provided for in Sections 4(a)(i)(B) and 4(a)(ii), (iii) and (iv) above that the Executive execute, deliver to the Company and not revoke a release of claims in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

The Severance Payments shall be paid in accordance with the Company’s customary payroll practices, commencing on the first regular payroll date on or following such termination of employment and the first payment shall include the cumulative amount of any payments that would have already accrued following the termination of the Employment Period.
Without Cause or With Good Reason If the Company terminates the Executive’s employment without Cause (as defined below), or the Executive resigns for Good Reason (as defined below), then, provided that the Executive executes and delivers, and does note revoke, a general release of claims in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company (i) the Company shall pay an amount equal to twelve months of the Executive’s Base Salary (at the rate in effect at the time of termination), and (ii) the Company shall make payment of a prorated portion of the Performance Bonus to which the Executive would otherwise be entitled, if any, for the calendar year in which Executive’s employment with the Company terminates, pursuant to the payment schedule in the following sentence (collectively, the “Severance Payments”). Base Salary severance payments will be made in equal installments on the days regular payments are made to Company employees. The prorated portion of the Performance Bonus, if any, will be paid on the date that bonus payments are made to current Company employees, or on the regular payroll day that the Company makes the first Base Salary severance payment, whichever is later. Provided that the Executive properly elects COBRA continuation coverage, the Company will reimburse the Executive for the cost of the insurance premiums for such coverage. The Executive will be eligible to receive such reimbursement until the earliest of (i) the twelve-month anniversary of the Executive’s termination, (ii) the date the Executive is no longer eligible to receive COBRA continuation coverage; and (iii) the date on which the Executive becomes eligible to receive substantially similar coverage from another employer. In addition, the Option grant shall provide that if the Company terminates the Executive’s employment without Cause, or the Executive resigns for Good Reason, then the shares underlying the option grant that would otherwise (absent the termination) have vested in the 12 months following the Executive’s termination shall accelerate and become fully-vested as of the date of the Executive’s termination. In no event shall the Executive or the Executive’s estate or beneficiaries be entitled to any of the payments or benefits set forth in this Section 6.2 upon termination of the Executive’s employment by reason of his disability or death.
Termination Without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason If the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company (other than for Cause, Disability or death) or the Executive resigns for Good Reason during the Term, then the Executive shall be entitled to the following benefits, subject to compliance, where applicable, with the requirements in Section 4.4 below regarding release of claims, the Company shall: (a) pay to the Executive in a lump sum (i) any unpaid base salary of the Executive, (ii) any accrued but unused and unpaid vacation pay of the Executive, (iii) any earned and unpaid bonuses of the Executive, and (iv) the amount of any unpaid compensation previously deferred by the Executive (together with any accrued interest or earnings thereon) (provided that this clause (iv) shall not cause accelerated payment of amounts subject to Section 409A (as defined below) if not provided for under the terms by which such amounts were or are deferred), in each case of clauses (i) through (iv) through the Date of Termination (collectively, the “Accrued Obligations”); (b) continue to provide to the Executive in accordance with the Company’s ordinary payroll practices, the Executive’s base salary for a period of time after the Date of Termination equal to 12 months (the “Severance Period”), with payments beginning as provided in 4.4 below; (c) if and while the Executive and his or her family qualifies for and elects to participate in continuation health coverage under Section 4980B of the Code (“COBRA”), the Company will continue to pay the share of the premium for such coverage that it pays for active and similarly-situated employees who receive the same type of coverage until the earlier of (i) the end of the Severance Period or (ii) the date the Executive’s COBRA continuation coverage expires, unless the Company’s providing payments for COBRA will violate the nondiscrimination requirements of applicable law, in which case this benefit will not apply; and (d) to the extent not previously paid or provided, the Company shall timely pay or provide to the Executive any other amounts or benefits required to be paid or provided or which the Executive is eligible to receive following the Executive’s termination of employment under any plan, program, policy, practice, contract or agreement of the Company (collectively, the “Other Benefits”).

Any installments of the Severance Payments that, in accordance with customary payroll practices, would have typically been made during the Release Consideration Period shall accumulate and shall then be paid on the Initial Severance Payment Date. The Average Bonus together with the Salary Continuation Payments shall be referred to collectively as the “Severance Payments”.
Termination Without Cause or With Good Reason (i) The Board may immediately terminate Executive’s employment at any time for a reason other than Cause (a termination “Without Cause”), and Executive may, by written notice to the Board, terminate this Agreement at any time within 90 days following an event constituting “Good Reason,” as defined below (a termination “With Good Reason”); provided, however, that the Bank shall have 30 days to cure the “Good Reason” condition, but the Bank may waive its right to cure. Any termination of Executive’s employment, other than termination for Cause, shall have no effect on or prejudice the vested rights of Executive under the Bank’s qualified or non-qualified retirement or other employee benefit plans or programs, or compensation plans or programs in which Executive was a participant. (ii) In the event of termination With Good Reason, as described under Section 4(e)(i), and subject to the requirements of Section 4(e)(v), the Bank shall pay Executive, or in the event of Executive’s subsequent death, Executive’s beneficiary or estate, as severance pay, an amount equal to one times the Executive’s Base Salary, payable in a lump sum within ten (10) days of the Executive’s termination of employment. (iii) In the event of termination Without Cause, as described under Section 4(e)(i), and subject to the requirements of Section 4(e)(v), the Bank shall pay Executive, or in the event of Executive’s subsequent death, Executive’s beneficiary or estate, as severance pay, an amount equal to the Executive’s Base Salary for the remaining term of this Agreement, payable in a lump sum within ten (10) days of the Executive’s termination of employment, and the Executive and his or her dependents shall remain eligible to participate in the non-taxable medical and dental insurance programs offered by the Bank to its employees for the remaining term of this Agreement, at no cost to the Executive. 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, or it would subject the Bank to penalties, then the Bank shall pay Executive a cash lump sum payment reasonably estimated to be equal to the value of such benefits or the value of the remaining benefits at the time of such determination. Such cash payment will be made on the Bank’s first payroll date immediately following the 30th day after the later of: (i) Executive’s date of termination; or (ii) the effective date of the rules or regulations prohibiting such benefits or subjecting the Bank to penalties.

The Accrued Benefits shall in all events be payable on the Company’s first regularly scheduled payroll date which occurs at least ten (10) days after the date of termination (other than Base Salary, which shall be payable as provided in Section 3(a) hereof).

In addition to the foregoing, upon a termination of the Employee’s employment described in this Section 5(b), any stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance shares, restricted stock, share rights and all other similar types of equity incentives held by the Employee immediately prior to the termination of the Employee’s employment that, but for the termination of the Employee’s employment, would have become vested and, if applicable, exercisable by the first anniversary of the date of his termination of employment, will become immediately vested and, if applicable, exercisable. No amount shall be payable and no benefits shall be provided pursuant to this Section 5(b) until the Employee has executed a release and waiver agreement (substantially in the form attached hereto as Schedule C) releasing and waiving any claims against the Company and in which the Company releases and waives claims against the Employee and if the Employee is serving as a Director of the Company a valid and effective resignation from the Board unless the Employee beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 5% or more of the Company’s Common Stock.
