Policy and is entitled to change the beneficiary.
2. Premiums. The Corporation may, in its discretion, from time to time
advance to the Employee a sum of money equal to all or a portion of the premium
on the Policy. At the request of the Employee, the Corporation may, in its
discretion, pay such advances directly to the Insurance Company.

shall have the limited rights described in this paragraph. The Corporation shall
(1) upon surrender of the Policy,
(2) upon termination of this agreement prior to the death of the insured
or
(3) upon the death of the insured prior to surrender of the Policy or
termination of this Agreement
have the right to payment for the surrender or death proceeds of the Policy an
amount equal to the sum of the unrepaid advances the Corporation has made under
this Agreement. Such payment to the Corporation shall be made at the time of the
surrender of the Policy or at the time of the death of the insured. The Employee
may, however, in his discretion, make such payment to the Corporation at any
earlier time. Such payment to the Corporation from the Policy proceeds or from
the Employee shall be a complete discharge of all obligations under this
Agreement. Upon receipt of such payment, the Corporation shall execute a release
of the assignment of the Policy. The Corporation's rights in the Policy shall be
satisfied first from paid-up additions, if any, and then from guaranteed values.
The Corporation shall have no right to surrender the Policy, no right to borrow

assign its rights to anyone other than the owner of the Policy.

would endanger the interest of the Employee or her designee under the Policy, or
the payment to the beneficiary of that portion of the Policy proceeds provided
by this Agreement.
5. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate on the eighth (8th)
anniversary of the date of issue of the Policy as shown on the Policy. Further,

Agreement will pass to and this Agreement will be binding upon the Corporation's
