Effectiveness of this Amendment to the Agreement shall be conditioned upon approval by the Board of Directors of the Bank (or appropriate committee thereof), and this Amendment to the Director’s Deferred Compensation Plan Agreement shall become effective on the later of date of such approval and execution by both parties hereto.
