Bank) during the remaining Employment Period; (iv) the lump sum
present value of the benefits which the Executive would have
accrued under the Savings Bank's Retirement Plan (and any other
defined benefit plan maintained by the Holding Company or the
Savings Bank) during the remaining Employment Period; and (v) the
lump sum present value of the additional benefits which Executive
would have accrued under Section 3(d) of this Agreement during

Company will cause to be continued, during the remaining

Bank or the Holding Company for Executive and his family
immediately prior to the Change in Control.
SIXTH. Section 5(g) of the Employment Agreement shall be redesignated
Section 5(h), and any cross-references thereto shall be modified accordingly,

and perquisites made available or provided to Executive
immediately prior to the Change in Control, including, but not
limited to, use of the automobile and the cellular and automobile
telephones provided to Executive by the Holding Company or the
Savings Bank immediately prior to the Change in Control, and
payment of all membership fees, dues, capital contributions and
other expenses for membership in such clubs, associations or
other organizations for which expenses were paid by the Holding
Company or the Savings Bank on behalf of the Executive prior to
