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 Trustee’s service for:
     5.1.1 Gross negligence or gross neglect of duties;
     5.1.2 Commission of a felony or of a gross misdemeanor involving moral turpitude;
     5.1.3 Breach by the Trustee of a fiduciary duty to the Bank involving personal profit; or
     5.1.4 Fraud, disloyalty, dishonesty or willful violation of any law, rule or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offences) or final cease and desist order or material breach of any material provision of this Agreement or significant Bank policy committed in connection with the Trustee’s service and resulting in an adverse effect on the Bank.
     For purposes of Section 5.1, no act or failure to act on the Trustee’s part shall be considered “willful” unless done, or omitted to be done, by the Trustee not in good faith and without reasonable belief that the Trustee’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 Trustee is subject to a final removal or prohibition order issued by an appropriate federal banking agency pursuant to Section 8(e) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act.
     5.3 Competition. The Trustee shall forfeit his right to any further benefits hereunder if the Trustee, without the prior written consent of the Bank, violates any of the following described restrictive covenants.
     5.3.1 Non-compete Provision. The Trustee shall not, for the term of this Agreement and until all benefits have been distributed, directly or indirectly, either as an individual or as a proprietor, stockholder, partner, officer, trustee, director, employee, agent, consultant

6


 

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 any financial institution if the Trustee’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 Trustee’s service;
 
  (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 or any of its subsidiaries immediately prior to the termination of the Trustee’s service;
 
  (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 services performed or products sold by the Bank or any of its subsidiaries (the preceding hereinafter referred to as “Services”), to or from any person or entity from whom the Bank or any of its subsidiaries 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 Trustee’s service; or
 
  (iv)   divulge, disclose, or communicate to others in any manner whatsoever, any non-public 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 confidential information regarding the Corporation or the Bank or any of its subsidiaries 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 Trustee.
     5.3.2 Judicial Remedies. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Trustee of any provision of these restrictions, the Trustee recognizes the substantial and

7


 

immediate harm that a breach or threatened breach will impose upon the Bank or any of its subsidiaries, and further recognizes that in such event monetary damages may be inadequate to fully protect the Bank or any of its subsidiaries. Accordingly, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, the Trustee consents to the Bank’s or any of its subsidiaries’ entitlement to such ex parte, preliminary, interlocutory, temporary or permanent injunctive, or any other equitable relief, protecting and fully enforcing the Bank’s or any of its subsidiaries’ rights hereunder and preventing the Trustee from further breaching any of his obligations set forth herein. The Trustee expressly waives any requirement, based on any statute, rule of procedure, or other source, that the Bank or any of its subsidiaries post a bond as a condition of obtaining any of the above-described remedies. Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting the Bank or any of its subsidiaries from pursuing any other remedies available to the Bank or any of its subsidiaries at law or in equity for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from the Trustee. The Trustee expressly acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the restrictions set forth in Section 5.3.1 are reasonable in terms of scope, duration, geographic area and otherwise, (ii) the protections afforded the Bank or any of its subsidiaries in Section 5.3.1 are necessary to protect its legitimate business interest, (iii) the restrictions set forth in Section 5.3.1 will not be materially adverse to the Trustee’s service with the Bank, and (iv) his 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 of Control. The non-compete provision detailed in Section 5.3.1 shall not be applicable following a Change in Control.
     5.4 Suicide or Misstatement. No benefits shall be payable if the Trustee 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 Trustee on any application for life insurance purchased by the Bank or for any other reason. The Bank shall have no liability to the Trustee for any denial of coverage by the insurance company.
     5.5. 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.
