Beneficiaries

If the Executive dies without a valid beneficiary designation, all payments shall be made to the Executive’s estate. Upon commencement of any payments due hereunder to the Executive’s beneficiary in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the beneficiary shall designate his or her beneficiary by filing a written designation with the Bank.

The Bank may require proof of incompetence, minority or guardianship as it may deem appropriate prior to distribution of the benefit. Such distribution shall completely discharge the Bank from all liability with respect to such benefit.
Article 5
General Limitations
All benefits payable under this Agreement shall be subject to the following limitations:
     5.1 Termination for Cause. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Bank shall not pay any benefit under this Agreement, if the Bank terminates the Executive’s employment for cause. Termination of the Executive’s employment for “Cause” shall mean termination because of personal dishonesty by the Executive in the performance of her duties which results in demonstrable material injury to the Bank, willful misconduct by the Executive which remains uncured 15 days following the giving of written notice thereof to the Executive, breach by the Executive of a fiduciary duty to the Bank involving personal profit, intentional failure to perform stated duties following the giving of written notice thereof to the Executive, willful violation of any law, rule or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses) or final cease-and-desist order or material breach of any material provision of the Agreement. For purposes of this paragraph, no act or failure to act on the Executive’s part shall be considered “willful” unless done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive not in good faith and without reasonable belief that the Executive’s action or omission was in the best interest of the Bank.
     5.2 Removal. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Bank shall not pay any benefit under this Agreement if the Executive is subject to a final removal or

5


 

prohibition order issued by an appropriate federal banking agency pursuant to Section 8(e) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act.
     5.3 Competition after Termination of Employment. The Executive shall forfeit her right to any further benefits hereunder if the Executive, without the prior written consent of the Bank, violates any of the following described restrictive covenants.
     5.3.1 Non-compete Provision. The Executive shall not, for a period of 12 months following termination of employment, directly or indirectly, either as an individual or as a proprietor, stockholder, partner, officer, trustee, director, employee, agent, consultant or independent contractor of any individual, partnership, corporation or other entity (excluding an ownership interest of five percent (5%) or less in the stock of a publicly-traded company):
  (i)   become employed by, participate in, or be connected in any manner with the ownership, management, operation or control of any bank, savings and loan or other similar financial institution if the Executive’s responsibilities will include providing banking or other financial services within the twenty-five (25) mile radius of the main office maintained by the Bank as of the date of the termination of the Executive’s employment;
 
  (ii)   participate in any way in hiring or otherwise engaging, or assisting any other person or entity in hiring or otherwise engaging, on a temporary, part-time or permanent basis, any individual who was employed by the Bank as of the date of termination of the Executive’s employment;
 
  (iii)   sell, offer to sell, provide banking or other financial services, assist any other person in selling or providing banking or other financial services, or solicit or otherwise compete for, either directly or indirectly, any orders, contracts, or accounts for services of a kind or nature like or substantially similar to the financial services performed or financial products sold by the Bank (the preceding hereinafter referred to as “Services”), to or from any person or entity from whom the Executive or the Bank, to the knowledge of the Executive, provided banking or other financial services, sold, offered to sell or solicited orders, contracts or accounts for Services during the three (3) year period immediately prior to the termination of the Executive’s employment; or
 
  (iv)   divulge, disclose, or communicate to others in any manner whatsoever, any nonpublic confidential information of the Corporation or the Bank or any of its subsidiaries, including, but not limited to, the names and addresses of customers or prospective customers, of the Bank or any of its subsidiaries, as they may have existed from time to time, work performed or services rendered for any customer, any method and/or procedures relating to projects or other work developed for the Bank or any of its subsidiaries, earnings or other information concerning the Corporation or the Bank or any of its subsidiaries. The restrictions contained in this subparagraph (iv) apply to all nonpublic

6


 

      confidential information regarding the Corporation or the Bank, regardless of the source who provided or compiled such information. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the restriction set forth in this paragraph shall not apply to any information that becomes known to the general public from sources other than the Executive.
     5.3.2 Judicial Remedies. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Executive of any provision of these restrictions, the Executive recognizes the substantial and immediate harm that a breach or threatened breach will impose upon the Bank, and further recognizes that in such event monetary damages may be inadequate to fully protect the Bank. Accordingly, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, the Executive consents to the Bank’s entitlement to such ex parte, preliminary, interlocutory, temporary or permanent injunctive, or any other equitable relief, protecting and fully enforcing the Bank’s rights hereunder and preventing the Executive from further breaching any of her obligations set forth herein. The Executive expressly waives any requirement, based on any statute, rule of procedure, or other source, that the Bank post a bond as a condition of obtaining any of the above-described remedies. Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting the Bank from pursuing any other remedies available to the Bank at law or in equity for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from the Executive. The Executive expressly acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the restrictions set forth in Section 5.3.1 hereof are reasonable in terms of scope, duration, geographic area and otherwise, (ii) the protections afforded the Bank in Section 5.3.1 hereof are necessary to protect its legitimate business interests, (iii) the restrictions set forth in Section 5.3.1 hereof will not be materially adverse to the Executive’s employment with the Bank, and (iv) her agreement to observe such restrictions forms a material part of the consideration for this Agreement.
     5.3.3 Overbreadth of Restrictive Covenant. It is the intention of the parties that if any restrictive covenant in this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be overly broad, then the court should enforce such restrictive covenant to the maximum extent permitted under the law as to area, scope, breadth and duration.
     5.3.4 Applicability in Change in Control. The non-compete provision detailed in Section 5.3.1 hereof shall not be applicable following a Change in Control.
     5.4 Suicide or Misstatement. No benefits shall be payable if the Executive commits suicide within two years after the date of this Agreement, or if the insurance company denies coverage for material misstatements of fact made by the Executive on any application for life insurance purchased by the Bank or for any other reason. The Bank shall have no liability to the Executive for any denial of coverage by the insurance company.
     5.5 Limitation of Benefits under Certain Circumstances. If the payments and benefits due to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement, either alone or together with other payments and benefits which the Executive has the right to receive from the Bank or the Corporation, would constitute a “parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code, the payments and benefits payable by the Bank pursuant to the terms hereof shall be reduced by the amount, if any, which is the minimum

7


 

necessary to result in no portion of the payments and benefits payable by the Bank under this Agreement being non-deductible to the Bank and the Corporation pursuant to Section 280G of the Code and subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code. The determination of any reduction in the payments and benefits to be made shall be based upon the opinion of independent counsel selected by the Bank and paid by the Bank. Such counsel shall promptly prepare the foregoing opinion, but in no event later than thirty (30) days from the date the Executive is entitled to receive benefits hereunder that are subject to the provisions of Section 280G, and may use such actuaries as such counsel deems necessary or advisable for the purpose. Nothing contained herein shall result in a reduction in the payment and benefits to which the Executive may be entitled under the terms of Articles 2 or 3 below zero.
     5.6 Severability. A determination that any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof.
