(C)           in the event that the Executive's participation in any plan, program or arrangement as provided in subparagraph (B) of this Section 5(d) is barred, or would trigger the payment of an excise tax under Section 4980D of the Code, or during such period any such plan, program or arrangement is discontinued or the benefits thereunder are materially reduced, the Bank shall arrange to provide the Executive with benefits substantially similar to those which the Executive was entitled to receive under such plans, programs and arrangements immediately prior to the Date of Termination, except that subparagraph (D) below shall be applicable if the alternative benefits would still trigger the payment of an excise tax under Section 4980D of the Code,

 

(D)           in the event that the continuation of any insurance coverage pursuant to Section 5(d)(C) above would trigger the payment of an excise tax under Section 4980D of the Code, then in lieu of providing such coverage, the Bank shall pay to the Executive within 10 business days following the Date of Termination (or within 10 business days following the discontinuation of the benefits if later) a lump sum cash amount equal to the projected cost to the Bank of providing such coverage to the Executive, with the projected cost to be based on the costs being incurred immediately prior to the Date of Termination (or the discontinuation of the benefits if later), as increased by 10% each year on the scheduled renewal date, provided that if the 10 business day period begins in one calendar year and ends in a second calendar year, then the payment shall be made in the second calendar year, and

(A)           pay to the Executive, in a lump sum as of the Date of Termination, a cash severance amount equal to two (2) times the Executive's Annual Compensation paid by the Bank,

 

(B)           maintain and provide for a period ending at the earlier of (i) twenty-four (24) months after the Date of Termination or (ii) the date of the Executive's full-time employment by another employer (provided that the Executive is entitled under the terms of such employment to benefits substantially similar to those described in this subparagraph (B)), at no cost to the Executive, the Executive's continued participation in all group insurance, life insurance, health and accident insurance and disability insurance offered by the Bank in which the Executive was entitled to participate immediately prior to the Date of Termination, subject to subparagraphs (C), (D) and (E) below,

 

(C)           in the event that the Executive's participation in any plan, program or arrangement as provided in subparagraph (B) of this Section 5(e) is barred, or would trigger the payment of an excise tax under Section 4980D of the Code, or during such period any such plan, program or arrangement is discontinued or the benefits thereunder are materially reduced, the Bank shall arrange to provide the Executive with benefits substantially similar to those which the Executive was entitled to receive under such plans, programs and arrangements immediately prior to the Date of Termination, except that subparagraph (D) below shall be applicable if the alternative benefits would still trigger the payment of an excise tax under Section 4980D of the Code,

 

(D)           in the event that the continuation of any insurance coverage pursuant to Section 5(e)(C) above would trigger the payment of an excise tax under Section 4980D of the Code, then in lieu of providing such coverage, the Bank shall pay to the Executive within 10 business days following the Date of Termination (or within 10 business days following the discontinuation of the benefits if later) a lump sum cash amount equal to the projected cost to the Bank of providing such coverage to the Executive, with the projected cost to be based on the costs being incurred immediately prior to the Date of Termination (or the discontinuation of the benefits if later), as increased by 10% each year on the scheduled renewal date, provided that if the 10 business day period begins in one calendar year and ends in a second calendar year, then the payment shall be made in the second calendar year, and

 

(E)           any insurance premiums payable by the Bank pursuant to Section 5(e)(B) or (C) shall be payable at such times and in such amounts (except that the Bank shall also pay any employee portion of the premiums) as if the Executive was still an employee of the Bank, subject to any increases in such amounts imposed by the insurance company or COBRA, and the amount of insurance premiums required to be paid by the Bank in any taxable year shall not affect the amount of insurance premiums required to be paid by the Bank in any other taxable year.

 

6.           Limitation of Benefits under Certain Circumstances.  If the payments and benefits pursuant to Section 5 hereof, either alone or together with other payments and benefits which the Executive has the right to receive from the Corporation or the Bank, would constitute a “parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code, then the payments and benefits payable by the Bank pursuant to Section 5 hereof shall be reduced by the minimum amount necessary to result in no portion of the payments and benefits payable by the Bank under Section 5 being non-deductible to the Bank pursuant to Section 280G of the Code and subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code. In no event shall the payments and benefits payable under Section 5 exceed three times the Executive’s average taxable income from the Bank for the five calendar years preceding the year in which the Date of Termination occurs, with any benefits to be provided subsequent to the Date of Termination to be discounted to present value in accordance with Section 280G of the Code. If the payments and benefits under Section 5 are required to be reduced, the cash severance shall be reduced first, followed by a reduction in the fringe benefits.  The determination of any reduction in the payments and benefits to be made pursuant to Section 5 shall be based upon the opinion of independent tax 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 of Termination, and may use such actuaries as such counsel deems necessary or advisable for the purpose.  Nothing contained in this Section 6 shall result in a reduction of any payments or benefits to which the Executive may be entitled upon termination of employment under any circumstances other than as specified in this Section 6, or a reduction in the payments and benefits specified in Section 5 below zero.

 

7.           Mitigation; Exclusivity of Benefits.

 

(a)           The Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any benefits hereunder by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any such benefits be reduced by any compensation earned by the Executive as a result of employment by another employer after the Date of Termination or otherwise, except as set forth in Section 5(d)(B) above.

 

 

 

(b)           The specific arrangements referred to herein are not intended to exclude any other benefits which may be available to the Executive upon a termination of employment with the Employer pursuant to employee benefit plans of the Employer or otherwise.

 

8.           Proprietary and Confidential Information.  During the term of employment under this Agreement, the Executive will or may have access to information that is considered to be proprietary and confidential information of the Bank, such as, but not limited to: forms, files, records, documents, correspondence, notes, memoranda, pricing and marketing information, trade secrets, financial information concerning the Bank and its affiliates, computer records, reports, customer (including current, former and prospective customer) lists, proprietary software, keys, security cards and other entry devices for access to the Bank’s facilities or those of the Bank’s affiliates, and other documents (and all copies thereof) and similar items relating to the business of the Bank which are owned by the Bank and which are regularly used in the operation of the business of the Bank (collectively, “Confidential Materials”). Executive shall not disclose any Confidential Materials nor use such material in any way during the term of this Agreement, except as required in the normal course of Executive’s employment, and at no time thereafter. All Confidential Materials shall remain the exclusive property of the Bank and shall not be copied nor reproduced, in whole or in part, or removed from the premises of the Bank under any circumstances without the prior written consent of the Bank, except as required in the normal course of Executive’s employment hereunder. At all times hereafter, Executive will not, except with the Bank’s express prior written consent, directly or indirectly, provide, communicate, disclose or divulge to any individual, sole proprietorship, joint venture, partnership, corporation, association or any other governmental or non-governmental entity or authority (collectively “Person”), or use for her own benefit or the benefit of any Person, any Confidential Materials, no matter when or how acquired, except for information which (1) is in the public domain or (2) the disclosure of which is required by law.

 

Upon termination of employment with the Bank for any reason, or when the Bank may so request, Executive will immediately deliver to the Bank any or all property of the Bank in Executive’s possession, including but not limited to, Confidential Materials, which Executive may then possess or have under her control.

 

           9.           Non-Solicitation.  During the term of her employment and for a period of six months following the termination of her employment, Executive expressly covenants and agrees that she will not (i) cause any person or entity other than the Bank to employ any person employed by the Bank, or encourage the departure of any employee working for the Bank; or (ii) solicit the transfer of the Bank’s loan files to another organization or person or solicit any existing customer of the Bank to transfer his or her loan or loan application to any person or entity other than the Bank; and, for a period of six months following the termination of her employment under this Agreement, the Executive agrees that she will not contact or solicit any of the Bank’s customers (which, for this purpose, shall mean any customers with existing residential mortgage loans which were originated by or on behalf of the Bank and any customers who have submitted to the Bank an application to obtain a residential mortgage loan).

 

 

 

 

 

 

10.           Remedies.  The Executive understands and acknowledges that a violation of Section 8 or Section 9 of this Agreement by the Executive would result in irreparable injury to the Bank, the loss of which cannot be reasonably compensated in damages in an action at law.  The Executive understands and acknowledges that in addition to any other rights or remedies the Bank may possess, including recovery of damages, the Bank shall also be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief to prevent a threatened or continuing breach of this Agreement by the Executive.

 

11.           Withholding.  All payments required to be made by the Bank hereunder to the Executive shall be subject to the withholding of such amounts, if any, relating to tax and other payroll deductions as the Bank shall determine are required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

 

12.           Assignability.  The Bank may assign this Agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder in whole, but not in part, to any corporation, bank or other entity with or into which the Bank may hereafter merge or consolidate or to which the Bank may transfer all or substantially all of its assets, if in any such case said corporation, bank or other entity shall by operation of law or expressly in writing assume all obligations of the Bank hereunder as fully as if it had been originally made a party hereto, but may not otherwise assign this Agreement or its rights and obligations hereunder.  The Executive may not assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder.

 

13.           Notice.  For the purposes of this Agreement, notices and all other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered or mailed by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the respective addresses set forth below:
