Amended and Restated Executive Long Term Compensation Agreement

Exhibit 10.2

This Amended and Restated Executive Long Term Compensation Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into this 23rd day of November 2015 by and between Sound Community Bank, a bank organized and existing under the laws of the State of Washington and with its principal offices in Seattle, Washington, (hereinafter referred to as the “Bank” or “Employer”), and Xxxxx Xxx Xxxxxxx, an executive of the Bank (hereinafter referred to as the “Executive”). This Agreement amends and restates the Executive Long Term Compensation Agreement between the Bank and the Executive as originally adopted effective August 14, 2007 and amended on December 30, 2011 (the “Prior Agreement”).

R E C I T A L S

WHEREAS, it is the consensus of the Employer and its Board of Directors that the Executive’s employment with the Bank in the past has been of exceptional merit and has constituted an invaluable contribution to the general welfare of the Bank in bringing the Bank to its present status of operating efficiency and present position in its field of activity;

WHEREAS, the Employer adopted the Prior Agreement in order to provide the Executive with certain fringe benefits, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, in order to reasonably induce the Executive to remain in the Bank’s employ during the Executive’s lifetime or until the age of retirement;

WHEREAS, the Prior Agreement was amended on December 30, 2011 to freeze the benefits payable under the Prior Agreement in connection with the adoption of a new Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan Agreement on December 30, 2011 (the “2011 SERP”) and the execution of a Confidentiality, Non-Competition, and Non-Solicitation Agreement between the Bank and the Executive as of December 30, 2011 (the “2011 Non-Competition Agreement”)

WHEREAS, because the Executive has reached her Normal Retirement Age of 66 under the Agreement and is fully vested in her Normal Retirement benefit, the provisions regarding the amount of benefits payable under the Prior Agreement in the event her employment was terminated prior to Normal Retirement are no longer applicable, including those provisions regarding disability, an involuntary termination, a termination in connection with a change in control or a voluntary termination;

WHEREAS, the Bank and the Executive desire to amend and restate the Prior Agreement in order to (1) revise Section 2.1 to expressly set forth the amount of benefits to be payable to the Executive under this Agreement as a result of the freeze amendment previously adopted on December 30, 2011; (2) delete old Paragraph 4.4 regarding a forfeiture of benefits if the Executive’s employment was terminated for Cause (as defined), (3) delete old Section 9 regarding non-competition as such provisions have been superseded by the 2011 Non-Competition Agreement, and (4) make certain other changes;

WHEREAS, the Executive and the Employer wish to specify in writing the terms and conditions upon which this additional compensatory incentive will be provided to the Executive; and

WHEREAS, it is the intent of the parties hereto that this Agreement be considered an unfunded arrangement maintained primarily to provide supplemental retirement benefits for the Executive, and be considered a non-qualified benefit plan for the purposes of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the past employment performance and the services performed by the Executive, as well as the mutual promises and covenants contained herein, the Executive and the Employer agree as follows:

A G R E E M E N T

1.0	Scope, Purpose and Effect.

1.1 Contract of Employment. Although this Agreement is intended to provide the Executive with additional incentive to remain in the employ of the Employer, it shall not be deemed to constitute a contract of employment between the Executive and the Employer, nor shall any provision of this non-qualified Agreement be applied to restrict or expand the right of the Employer to terminate the Executive's Employment with or without cause. This Non-qualified 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 non-qualified Agreement is specifically referenced in such employment agreement, the non-qualified Agreement (and the Employer's obligations thereunder) shall stand separate and apart and shall have no effect on or be affected by, the terms and provisions of any employment agreement. Events of termination of Employment shall be characterized, for purposes of interpreting this non-qualified Agreement, in accord with the definitions herein.

1.2 Fringe Benefit. The benefits provided by this Agreement are granted by the Employer as a fringe benefit to the Executive and are not a part of any salary reduction plan or any arrangement deferring a bonus or a salary increase. The Executive has no option to take any current payments or bonus in lieu of the benefits provided by this Agreement.

1.3 Internal Revenue Code Section 409A Compliance. It is the intent of the parties to comply with all applicable Internal Revenue Code Sections, including, but not limited to, IRC 409A. Thus, for any benefits payable pursuant to this Agreement, if the individual is a “key employee”, as defined by the Internal Revenue Service, and said Company is publicly traded at the time of “separation from service” (as defined by IRC 409A), any such benefit payment described herein shall be withheld for six (6) months following such separation from service in order to comply with IRC 409A. In addition, for any individual affected by this six (6) month delay in payment imposed by IRC 409A, and when applicable, the aggregate amount of the first seven (7) months of installments shall be paid at the beginning of the seventh month following the date of separation from service. Monthly installment payments shall continue thereafter according to form of benefit chosen.

For the purposes of this Plan, the term "Retirement" shall be interpreted in accordance with and in concert with IRC Section 409A and the rules relating to “Separation from Service”. Therefore, in order for the Executive to trigger the receipt of a benefit pursuant to this Agreement under the terms governing payments following Normal Retirement, the Executive must also have “Separated from Service” in accordance with the requirements of IRC 409A.

Notwithstanding any provision existing in this Agreement or any amendment thereto, it is the intent of the Bank and the Executive that any payment or benefit provided pursuant to this Agreement shall be made and paid in a manner, at a time and in a form which complies with the applicable requirements of IRC Section 409A, in order to avoid any unfavorable tax consequences resulting from any such failure to comply. Furthermore, for the purposes of this Agreement, IRC Section 409A shall be read to include any related or relevant IRS Notices (including but not limited to Notice 2006-79) and the regulations thereunder.

2.0	Payments Upon Retirement.

2.1 Payments Upon Normal Retirement. In the event the Executive elects to retire on a date which constitutes Normal Retirement as defined in Paragraph 11.10 below, then the Executive shall be entitled to be paid an annual Executive Benefit equal to Fifty-Three Thousand, Three Hundred and Twenty Dollars. This annual amount shall be paid in twelve (12) substantially equal monthly installments, with payments commencing on the first day of the first month following the Executive’s Separation from Service and continuing until the Executive’s death, subject to the provisions of Section 1.3 above.

3.0	Payments in the Event of Disability or Death.

3.1 Disability. In the event the Executive becomes Disabled at any time after the Effective Date of this Agreement but prior to or Normal Retirement, then the Executive shall be entitled to be paid the Accrued Liability Balance in lump sum on the first day of the first month following the determination of Disability.

3.2 Death. There are no death benefits payable under this Agreement (such benefits are described by a Joint Beneficiary Designation Agreement, if any), nor will Executive Benefit Payments be made after the Executive dies, regardless of whether such death occurs before or after termination, and regardless of whether payments have already begun pursuant to this Agreement.

4.0	Payments in the Event Executive Terminates Employment Prior to Retirement, or as Otherwise Described.

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 Executive’s Employment terminates, other than by reason of Retirement or Disability, then, for the following events of termination, as applicable, the Executive shall be entitled to the benefits described below which correspond to the circumstances surrounding the Executive's termination.

4.1 Involuntary Termination. In the event the Executive is Involuntarily Terminated prior to qualifying for Normal Retirement, then she shall be entitled to receive the Accrued Liability Balance. In the event such termination occurs prior to the Executive’s attainment of the Normal Retirement Age, then the Accrued Liability Balance shall be paid out in lump sum within sixty (60) days of the Executive’s Termination (subject to the conditions imposed by Paragraph 11.3 & IRC 409A). An Involuntary Termination after the Executive attains the Normal Retirement Age shall be governed by the provisions of Paragraph 2.1 (and again, the limitations imposed by IRC 409A).

4.2 Termination on Account of or After a Change in Control. In the event the Executive's Employment with the Employer is terminated by the Employer on Account of or After a Change in Control, or in the event the Executive is Constructively Terminated, then the Executive shall be entitled to be paid the same annual benefit amount she would have received had she retired following the attainment of Normal Retirement Age (as identified in Paragraph 2.1).

4.3 Voluntary Termination by the Executive. The Executive agrees that if she Voluntarily Terminates her Employment with the Employer (as defined in Paragraph 11.15) prior to qualifying Normal Retirement, she shall forfeit any and all rights and benefits she may have under the terms of this Agreement and shall have no right to be paid any of the amounts which would otherwise be due or paid to the Executive by the Employer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

5.0 IRS Section 280G Issues. If all or any portion of the amounts payable to the Executive under this Agreement, either alone or together with other payments which the Executive has the right to receive from the Employer, constitute "excess parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), that are subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (or similar tax and/or assessment), Executive shall be responsible for the payment of such excise tax and Employer (and its successor) shall be responsible for any loss of deductibility related thereto.

6.0 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, 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, the Executive shall have no 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.

7.0	Administrative and Claims Provision.

7.1 Named Fiduciary and Plan Administrator: The “Named Fiduciary and Plan Administrator” of this Executive Plan shall be the Board of Directors of Sound Community Bank, or a committee designated by the Board of Directors, until their resignation or removal by the Board.

The Named Fiduciary may delegate to others certain aspects of the management and operation responsibilities of the Executive Plan including the employment of advisors and the delegation of ministerial duties to qualified individuals

7.2 Claims Procedure and Arbitration: In the event a dispute arises over benefits under this Executive Plan and benefits are not paid to the Executive (or to the Executive’s beneficiary(ies) in the case of the Executive’s death) and such claimants feel they are entitled to receive such benefits, then a written claim must be made to the Named Fiduciary and Plan Administrator named above within sixty (60) days from the date payments are refused. The Named Fiduciary and Plan Administrator shall review the written claim and if the claim is denied, in whole or in part, they shall provide in writing within sixty (60) days of receipt of such claim the specific reasons for such denial, reference to the provisions of this Executive Plan upon which the denial is based and any additional material or information necessary to perfect the claim. Such written notice shall further indicate the additional steps to be taken by claimants if a further review of the claim denial is desired. A claim shall be deemed denied if the Named Fiduciary and Plan Administrator fail to take any action within the aforesaid sixty-day period.

If claimants desire a second review they shall notify the Named Fiduciary and Plan Administrator in writing within sixty (60) days of the first claim denial. Claimants may review this Executive Plan or any documents relating thereto and submit any written issues and comments they may feel appropriate. In their sole discretion, the Named Fiduciary and Plan Administrator shall then review the second claim and provide a written decision within sixty (60) days of receipt of such claim. This decision shall likewise state the specific reasons for the decision and shall include reference to specific provisions of the Plan Agreement upon which the decision is based.

If claimants continue to dispute the benefit denial based upon completed performance of this Executive Plan or the meaning and effect of the terms and conditions thereof, then claimants may submit the dispute to an arbitrator for final arbitration. The arbitrator shall be selected by mutual agreement of the Bank and the claimants. The arbitrator shall operate under any generally recognized set of arbitration rules. The parties hereto agree that they and their heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns shall be bound by the decision of such arbitrator with respect to any controversy properly submitted to it for determination.
