Executive's death.
2. Scope, Purpose and Effect.

provide the Executive with an additional incentive to remain in the employ of
the Employer, this Agreement shall not be deemed to constitute a contract of
employment between the Executive and the Employer nor shall any provision of
this Agreement restrict or expand the right of the Employer to terminate the
Executive's employment. This Agreement shall have no impact or effect upon any
separate written Employment Agreement which the Executive may have with the
Employer, it being the parties' intention and agreement that unless this
Agreement is specifically referenced in said Employment Agreement (or any
modification thereto), this Agreement (and the Employer's obligations hereunder)
shall stand separate and apart and shall have no effect upon, nor be affected
by, the terms and provisions of said Employment Agreement.

granted by the Employer as a fringe benefit to the Executive and are not a part
of any salary reduction plan or any arrangement

continuous employment of the Employer until attaining sixty- five (65) years of
age, the Executive shall be entitled to be paid the Annual Benefit, as defined
above, for a period of fifteen (15) years, in One Hundred Eighty (180) equal
monthly installments, with each installment to be paid on the first day of each
month, beginning with the month following the month in which the Executive
Retires or upon such later date as may be mutually agreed upon by the Executive
and the Employer in advance of said Retirement date. At the Employer's sole and
absolute discretion, the Employer may increase the Annual Benefit as and when
the Employer determines the same to be appropriate in order to reflect a
substantial change in the cost of living. Notwithstanding anything contained
herein to the contrary, the Employer shall have no obligation hereunder to make
any such cost-of-living adjustment.
3.2. Payments in the Event of Death After Retirement. The Employer
agrees that if the Executive Retires, but shall die before receiving all of the
One Hundred Eighty (180) monthly payments described in paragraph 3.1 above, the
Employer will make the remaining monthly payments, undiminished and on the same
schedule as if the Executive had not died, to the Executive's designated
beneficiary. If a valid Beneficiary Designation is not in effect, then the
remaining amounts due to the Executive under the term of this Agreement shall be
paid to the Executive's Surviving Spouse. If the Executive leaves no Surviving
Spouse, the remaining amounts due to the Executive under the terms of this
Agreement shall be paid to the duly qualified personal representative, executor

time after the Effective Date of this Agreement, but prior to attaining sixty

years of age, but dies before Retirement, the Employer agrees to pay the Annual
Benefit for a period of fifteen (15) years in One Hundred Eighty (180) equal
monthly installments, with each installment to be paid on the first of each
month beginning with the month following Executive's death, to the Executive's
designated beneficiary with the Applicable Percentage determined by the

Surviving Spouse as set forth above. If the Executive leaves no Surviving
Spouse, the amounts due to the Executive under the terms of this Agreement shall
be paid to the duly qualified personal representative, executor or administrator
of the Executive's estate as set forth above.
4.2. Payments in the Event of Disability Prior to Retirement. In
the event the Executive becomes Disabled while actively employed by the Employer
at any time after the date of this Agreement but prior to Retirement, the
Executive shall: (i) continue to be treated during such period of Disability as
being gainfully employed by the Employer but shall not add applicable years of
service for the purpose of determining the Annual Benefit; and (ii) be entitled
to be paid the Annual Benefit, as set forth on Schedule" A ", for fifteen ( 15 )
years, as determined by the applicable years of service at the time of
disability, as defined above, in One Hundred Eighty (180) equal monthly
installments, with each installment to be paid on the first day of each month,
beginning with the month following the earlier of (1) the month in which the

Executive is no longer entitled to receive Disability benefits under the
Executive's principal Disability insurance policy and does not, at such time,
return to and thereafter fulfill the responsibilities associated with the
employment position held with the Employer prior to becoming Disabled by reason
of such Disability continuing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event
Executive should die while actively or
3
gainfully employed by the Employer at any time after the Effective Date of this
Agreement and prior to attaining the age of sixty-five (65) years of age, the
payments provided in Paragraph 4.1 shall be paid in lieu of the payments
provided in this Paragraph 4.2, provided that Executive or his legal
representative shall have not elected to take the benefits provided by Paragraph
5.
5. Payments in the Event Employment is Terminated Other than by Death,
Disability, Retirement.
5.1 Payments in the Event Employment is Terminated Other than by Death,
Disability, Retirement or a Change of Control of the Employer.
As indicated in Paragraph 2 above, the Employer reserves the right to terminate
the Executive's employment, with or without cause but subject to any written
employment agreement which may then exist, at any time prior to the Executive's
Retirement. In the event that the employment of the Executive shall be
terminated, for any reason, including voluntary termination by the Executive,
but other than by reason of Disability except as provided in paragraph 4.2,
death, Retirement or a change of control of the Employer as set forth in
Paragraph 5.2, the Executive or his legal representative shall be entitled to be
paid the Annual Benefit, as set forth in Schedule A for a period of fifteen (15)
years, as determined by the applicable years of service at the time of the
Executive's termination of employment with the Employer, in One Hundred Eighty
(180) equal monthly installments, with each installment to be paid on the first
day of each month, beginning with the month following the month in which the
Executive terminates employment and attains sixty-five (65) years of age or, if
earlier, beginning with the month following the Executive's death.
5.2 Termination of Employment in the Event of a Change of Control.
A "Terminating Event" shall be defined as anyone of the following events: (i)
merger or consolidation of the Employer where the Employer's shareholders
immediately prior to the merger or consolidation will not own at least a
majority of the outstanding voting shares of the Employer (or Employer's
successor, if the Employer is not the surviving entity in the merger or
consolidation) immediately after such merger or consolidation, (ii) a transfer
of a controlling interest of the Employer (consisting of at least a majority of
the outstanding voting shares of the Employer) to another corporation,
individual or individuals acting in concert, or (iii) a sale or transfer of
substantially all of the assets of the Employer to another entity.
In the event the Executive's employment terminates with the Employer or
Employer's successor within five years of a Terminating Event and the Executive
gives written notice to the Employer or Employer's successor within 30 calendar
days of such termination of employment that the termination is for the reason
that a Terminating Event has occurred, the Executive shall be entitled to be
paid the Annual Benefit with the Applicable Percentage equal to 100 percent, for
a period of fifteen (15) years, in One Hundred Eighty (180) equal monthly
installments, with each installment to be paid on the first day of each month,
beginning with the month following the month in which the Executive's employment
is terminated.
The Executive and Employer acknowledge that limitations on deductibility of the
Annual Benefit for federal income tax purposes may be imposed under, but not
limited to Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
("Code"), and any successor to Section 280G of the Code. The increase in the
Applicable Percentage pursuant to the application of this Paragraph 5.2 shall be
limited to such increase in the Applicable Percentage (which increase shall not
result in the Applicable Percentage being greater than 100 percent) that results
in the greatest amount of the Annual Benefit that is deductible by the Employer
for federal income tax purposes after taking into account all other compensation
payments to or for the benefit of the Executive that are included in determining
the deductibility of such payments under Section 280G of the Code or any
successor to Section 280G of the Code. In the event that prior to the
application of this Paragraph 5.2, all other compensation payments to or for the
benefit of Executive results in the limitation of the deductibility by Employer
of such payments under Section 280G or any successor to Section 280G of the
Code, then this Paragraph 5.2 shall not be applicable.
6. Payments in the Event the Executive Elects Early Retirement.
4
The Executive shall have the right to elect to receive the Annual Benefit prior
to attaining sixty-five (65) years of age if he chooses to Retire on a date
which constitutes an Early Retirement Date as defined in subparagraph 1.7 above.
In the event the Executive elects to Retire on a date which constitutes an.
Early Retirement Date, the Executive shall be entitled to be paid the Annual
Benefit for a period of fifteen (15) years, as set forth on Schedule "A" and
determined by the applicable years of service at the time of early retirement,
as defined above, in One Hundred Eighty (180) equal monthly installments, with
each installment to be paid on the first day of each month, beginning with the
month following the month in which Early Retirement Date occurs.
7. Right To Determine Funding Methods.
The Employer reserves the right to determine, in its sole and absolute
discretion, whether, to what extent and by what method, if any, to provide for
the payment of the amounts which may be payable to the Executive, the
Executive's spouse or the Executive's beneficiaries under the terms of this
Agreement. In the event that the Employer elects to fund this Agreement, in
whole or in part, through the use of life insurance or annuities, or both, the
Employer shall determine the ownership and beneficial interests of any such
policy of life insurance or annuity. The Employer further reserves the right, in
its sole and absolute discretion, to terminate any such policy, and any other
device used to fund its obligations under this Agreement, at any time, in whole
or in part. Consistent with Paragraph 9 below, neither the Executive, the
Executive's spouse nor the Executive's beneficiaries shall have any right, title
or interest in or to any funding source or amount utilized by the Employer
pursuant to this Agreement, and any such funding source or amount shall not
constitute security for the performance of the Employer's obligations pursuant
to this Agreement. In connection with the foregoing, the Executive agrees to
execute such documents and undergo such medical examinations or tests which the
Employer may request and which may be reasonably necessary to facilitate any
funding for this Agreement including, without limitation, the Employer's
acquisition of any policy of insurance or annuity. Furthermore, a refusal by the
Executive to consent to, participate in and undergo any such medical
examinations or tests shall result in the immediate termination of this
Agreement and the immediate forfeiture by the Executive, the Executive's spouse
and the Executive's beneficiaries of any and all rights to payment hereunder.
8. Claims Procedure.

designated as the named fiduciary under this Agreement and shall have authority
to control and manage the operation and administration of this Agreement.
Consistent therewith, the Employer shall make all determinations as to the
rights to benefits under this Agreement. Any decision by the Employer denying a
claim by the Executive, the Executive's spouse, or the Executive's beneficiary
for benefits under this Agreement shall be stated in writing and delivered or
mailed, via registered or certified mail, to the Executive, the Executive's
spouse or the Executive's beneficiary, as the case may be. Such decision shall
set forth the specific reasons for the denial of a claim. In addition, the
Employer shall provide the Executive, the Executive's spouse or the Executive's
beneficiary with a reasonable opportunity for a full and fair review of the
decision denying such claim.
9. Status of an Unsecured General Creditor.

Executive, the Executive's spouse or the Executive's beneficiary shall have any
legal or equitable rights, interests or claims in or to any specific property or
assets of the Employer; (ii) none of the Employer's assets shall be held in or
under any trust for the benefit of the Executive, the Executive's spouse or the

the obligations of the Employer under this Agreement; (iii) all of the
Employer's assets shall be and remain the general unpledged and unrestricted
assets of the Employer; (iv) the Employer's obligation under this Agreement
shall be that of an unfunded and unsecured promise by the Employer to pay money
