The restrictive covenants pertaining to non-competition and non-sollcltatlon set forth in the Existing Agreement shall continue in effect and shall be enforceable against Executive Independently of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to alter, modify, affect or impair in any manner those non-competition and non-sollcltatlon provisions.

Upon written notice to Executive, together with calculations of Bank’s Independent auditors, Executive shall remit to Bank the amount of the reduction plus such interest as may be necessary to avoid the imposition of such excise tax. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any portion of the amount herein payable to the Executive is determined to be non-deductible pursuant to the regulations promulgated under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), Bank shall be required only to pay to Executive the amount determined to be deductible under Section 280G.
