IV TERMS
A. ACQUISITION OF POLICY. The Parties shall cooperate in paying the
annual premiums on the Policy as long as the Policy remains in force. The Policy
was issued to the Owner as owner and the Owner shall be the sole and exclusive
owner of the Policy.
B. PAYMENT OF PREMIUMS.
Employer has paid the Policy premiums through March 1, 1990. All
premium payments thereafter shall be paid by the Employer and the Owner in
accordance with the formula set forth in this paragraph IVB(1), IVB(2), IVB(3)
and IVB(4) below. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Employer and the Owner, all
premium payments on the Policy are to be made in accordance with and subject to
the following terms and conditions:
(1) On or before thirty days prior to the due date of each
required premium on the Policy (not including any grace period), the
Employer shall pay to Owner the amount specified in Schedule B for the
applicable policy year for each year that this Restated Agreement is in
force.
(2) Owner shall pay to the Insurer the amount received by it
under paragraph IVB(1) above and the amount specified in Schedule C
for the applicable policy year for each year that this Restated
4

Agreement is in force. Owner's share of the premium has been
calculated using the Insurer's current published premium rate for
annual renewal term insurance for standard risks for joint lives; if
this is adjusted by Insurer in the future, Owner's share of the premium
will be adjusted accordingly.
(3) Owner shall pay its portion of each premium on a date no
later than a date within the grace period allowed by the Policy. Upon
request by Employer, Owner shall provide Employer with proof of
payment.
(4) To the extent the Employer fails to pay a portion of any
premium due on the Policy, as required by paragraph IVB(1) above, the
Owner may, at its option, pay all or any portion of the premium and
deduct that amount from the total amount of the Employer's Policy
Interest, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent the
Employer fails to pay a portion of any premium due on the Policy or pay
the additional compensation payable under the following paragraph IVC,
neither the Owner, Employee or any other person shall have the
obligation to pay such premium due on the Policy.
C. ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION. As additional compensation to Employee, the
Employer also shall pay to Employee, if
5

living, or to his wife if he is then deceased, an amount equal to the Owner's
portion of the annual premium, as specified in Schedule C. Employee and Xxxx
Xxxxxxxxx agree to contribute to Owner all amounts received by either of them
under the prior sentence of this paragraph IVC.
D. DISBURSEMENT OF POLICY PROCEEDS BY OWNER. In consideration of the
Employer's agreement to continue to contribute to the payment of the premiums in
the manner set forth in this Restated Agreement, Owner agrees to repay to
Employer, at the time and in the manner provided in this Restated Agreement, the
sum of $760,000 in full settlement of all amounts due or to become due under
this Restated Agreement.
E. POLICY OWNERSHIP. Owner is the owner of the Policy and may exercise
all rights of ownership with respect to the Policy. Such rights include the

extent that the cash value exceeds the Employer's Policy Interest; to pledge or
assign the interest in the Policy for such loans or advances; the right, in the
event of a termination of this Restated Agreement, to realize against the cash
value of the Policy and to retain the cash received after satisfying the Owner's
obligation to pay to Employer the Employer's Policy Interest; the right of Owner
pursuant to paragraph IVG, to collect the Policy proceeds and to retain the
balance of the proceeds remaining after satisfying the Owner's
6

obligations to pay to Employer the Employer's Policy Interest; and the right,
subject to the right of Employer to be paid its Policy Interest, to surrender
the Policy. Employer agrees to sign any documents necessary to assist owner in
exercising its rights under this Restated Agreement. Owner also has the right to
assign its ownership rights to any person or entity it, in its absolute
discretion chooses.
F. APPLICATION OF POLICY DIVIDENDS. Any annual dividend attributable to
the Policy will be applied to the reduction of the Employer's portion of
premiums due on the Policy pursuant to paragraph IVB(1).
G. DEATH. In the event of the death of the survivor of Employee and
Xxxx Xxxxxxxxx while this Restated Agreement is in force:
(1) Employer shall be entitled to that portion of the proceeds
of the Policy equal to the amount of Employer's Policy Interest.

excess of the amount of the Employer's Policy Interest.
