WHEREAS, TRB, Employer and Executive wish to amend the death benefit and extend the term of the Agreement.

1. Section 8 of the Agreement is amended to read as follows:

 

8. Death Benefits. Upon the Executive’s death during the Contract Period, the Executive shall be entitled to the benefits of any life insurance policy or supplemental executive retirement plan paid for, or maintained by, the Employer, but his estate shall not be entitled to any further benefits under this Agreement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if either (i) at the time of Executive’s death facts which constituted “Good Reason” within the meaning of Section 1d. of this Agreement existed, which facts would have allowed for Employee’s resignation with Good Reason under Section 9 of this Agreement had Executive not died, or (ii) Employer had, prior to Executive’s death, given Executive notice of Executive’s termination without Cause as required by the first full paragraph of Section 9 of this Agreement, then Executive’s death shall be conclusively deemed to be a termination without Cause and Executive’s estate shall be paid the full amount determined by application of Section 9 of this Agreement on that date which is sixty (60) days after Executive’s death, but only upon the execution and delivery by Executive’s representative(s) of a binding release which is satisfactory in enforceability, form and substance to Employer and Employer’s counsel.

 

  

2. Section 12a. of the Agreement is amended by deleting “May 31, 2017” and inserting in its stead “May 31, 2019”.
