exercisable on the date Employee ceases employment by reason of retirement
shall become immediately exercisable for a period of ninety (90) days from
the date Employee ceases her employment.
6. EXERCISE OF OPTION
Unless the Option hereunder shall earlier lapse or expire pursuant to
Section 5 hereof, the Option to acquire an aggregate of _____ shares may be

7. MANNER OF EXERCISE
The Option may be exercised by written notice to the Bank specifying the
number of shares to be purchased and signed by Employee or such other person
who may be entitled to acquire stock under this Option Agreement. If any
such notice is signed by a person other than Employee, such person shall also
provide such other information and documentation as the Board of Directors
may reasonably require to assure that such person is entitled to acquire
Stock under the terms of the Plan and this Option Agreement.
8. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY
The Option granted hereunder shall not be assignable or transferable by
Employee otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution,
and such Option shall be exercisable during Employee's lifetime only by
Employee.
9. REORGANIZATION AND RECAPITALIZATION
In the event that dividends are payable in Stock of the Bank or in the
event there are splits, subdivisions or combinations of shares of Stock of
the Bank, the number of shares deliverable upon the exercise thereafter of
the Option shall be increased or decreased proportionately, as the case may
be, without change in the aggregate purchase price.
In case the Bank is merged or consolidated with another corporation and
the Bank is not the surviving corporation, or in case the property or stock
of the Bank is acquired by another corporation, or in case of a separation,
reorganization, recapitalization or liquidation of the Bank, the Board of
Directors of the Bank, or the Board of Directors of any corporation assuming
the obligations of the Bank hereunder, shall either (i) make appropriate
provision for the protection of any outstanding Options by the substitution
on an equitable basis of appropriate stock of the Bank, or of the merged,
consolidated or otherwise reorganized corporation which will be issuable in
respect to the shares of Stock of the Bank, provided only that the excess of
the aggregate fair market value of the shares subject to option immediately
after such substitution over the purchase price thereof is not more than the
excess of the aggregate fair market value of the shares subject to option
immediately before such substitution over the purchase price thereof or
(ii) upon written notice to the optionee provide that the Option (including,
in the discretion of the Board of Directors, any portion of such Option which
is not then exercisable) must be exercised within sixty (60) days of the date
of such notice or it will be terminated.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Bank has caused this Option Agreement to be
executed by a member of the Board of Directors or a duly authorized officer
of the Bank, and Employee has executed this Option Agreement as of the date
first written above.
