agrees to render such services to the Employer on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. The term of this Agreement shall be a period of three years commencing as of the Effective Date subject to earlier termination or extension as
provided herein. On each day during the Employment Period, the Employment Period shall automatically be extended for one additional day, unless either the Employer or the Executive elects not to extend the Agreement further by giving written notice
thereof to the other party, in which case the Employment Period shall end on the third anniversary of the date on which such written notice is given, provided that no daily extensions shall be made subsequent to December 31, 2008. As a result,
the term of this Agreement shall not be extended beyond December 31, 2011. Upon termination of the Executive’s employment with the Employer for any reason whatsoever, any daily extensions provided pursuant to this Section 2(a), if not
theretofore discontinued, shall automatically cease. The Board of Directors of the Employer shall review on a periodic basis (and no less frequently than annually) whether to permit further extensions of the term of this Agreement. As part of such
review, the Board of Directors shall consider all relevant factors, including the Executive’s performance hereunder, and shall either expressly approve further extensions of the time of this Agreement or decide to provide notice to the

 3. Compensation and Benefits. 
 (a) The Employer shall compensate and pay the Executive for his services during the term of this Agreement at a minimum base salary of $75,000 per year
(“Base Salary”), which may not be decreased without the Executive’s express written consent. In addition to his Base Salary, the Executive shall be entitled to receive during the term of this Agreement such bonus payments as may be
determined by the President of the Employer. 
 (b) During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to participate in and
receive the benefits of any pension or other retirement benefit plan, profit sharing plan or other plans, benefits and privileges given to employees and executives of the Employer, to the extent commensurate with his then duties and
responsibilities. The Employer shall not make any changes in such plans, benefits or privileges which would adversely affect the Executive’s rights or benefits thereunder, unless such change occurs pursuant to a program applicable to all
executive officers of the Employer and does not result in a proportionately greater adverse change in the rights of or benefits to the Executive as compared with any other executive officer of the Employer. Nothing paid to the Executive under any
plan or arrangement presently in effect or made available in the future shall be deemed to be in lieu of the salary payable to the Executive pursuant to Section 3(a) hereof. 
 (c) During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to paid annual vacation in accordance with the policies as established from time to
time by the Employer. The Executive shall not be entitled to receive any additional compensation from the Employer for failure to take a vacation, nor shall the Executive be able to accumulate unused vacation time from one year to the next, except
to the extent authorized by the Employer. 
 (d) During the Employment Period, the Employer shall provide the Executive with the use of an
automobile. The Employer shall pay for all costs of insurance coverage, repairs, maintenance and other incidental expenses, including license, fuel and oil, related to the Executive’s business use of the automobile, subject to such reasonable
documentation and other limitations as may be established by the Employer. 
 4. Expenses. The Employer shall reimburse the Executive
or otherwise provide for or pay for all reasonable expenses incurred by the Executive in furtherance of or in connection with the business of the Employer, including, but not by way of limitation, traveling expenses and all reasonable entertainment
expenses, subject to such reasonable documentation and other limitations as may be established by the Employer. If such expenses are paid in the first instance by the Executive, the Employer shall reimburse the Executive therefor. 
 5. Termination. 
 (a) The Employer
shall have the right, at any time upon prior Notice of Termination, to terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder for any reason, including without limitation termination for Cause, Disability or Retirement, and the Executive shall have the
right, upon prior Notice of Termination, to terminate his employment hereunder for any reason. 
  

 4 








 (b) In the event that (i) the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Employer for Cause or
(ii) the Executive terminates his employment hereunder other than for Disability, Retirement, death or Good Reason, the Executive shall have no right pursuant to this Agreement to compensation or other benefits for any period after the
applicable Date of Termination. 
 (c) In the event that the Executive’s employment is terminated as a result of Disability, Retirement
or the Executive’s death during the term of this Agreement, the Executive shall have no right pursuant to this Agreement to compensation or other benefits for any period after the applicable Date of Termination. 
 (d) In the event that (i) the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Association for other than Cause, Disability, Retirement or the
Executive’s death or (ii) such employment is terminated by the Executive for Good Reason, then the Employer shall, subject to the provisions of Section 6 hereof, if applicable: 
 (1) pay to the Executive, in a lump sum within 10 business days of the Date of Termination, a cash severance amount equal to the Annual
Compensation that would have been paid to the Executive for the then remaining Employment Period; and 
 (2) maintain and
provide for a period ending at the earlier of (i) the expiration of the remaining Employment Period prior to the Notice 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 (2)), 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 Employer in which the Executive was entitled to participate immediately prior to the Date of Termination, provided that in the event that the Executive’s
participation in any plan, program or arrangement as provided in this subparagraph (2) is barred, or during such period any such plan, program or arrangement is discontinued or the benefits thereunder are materially reduced, the Employer 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; and provided further, that if the
provision of any of the benefits covered by this Section 5(d)(2) would trigger the 20% excise tax and interest penalties under Section 409A of the Code either due to the nature of such benefit or the length of time it is being provided,
then the benefit(s) that would trigger such tax and interest penalties due to the nature of the benefit shall not be provided at all and the benefit(s) that would trigger the tax and interest penalties if provided beyond the “limited period of
time” set forth in the regulations under Section 409A shall not be provided beyond such limited period of time (collectively, the “Excluded Benefits”), and in lieu of the Excluded Benefits the Employer shall pay to the Executive,
in a lump sum within 30 days following termination of employment or within 30 days after such determination should it occur after termination of employment, a cash amount equal to the cost to the Employer of providing the Excluded Benefits.

 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 Employer would constitute a “parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code, the payments and
benefits payable by the Employer pursuant to Section 5 hereof shall be reduced by the amount, if any, which is the minimum necessary to result in no portion of the payments and benefits payable by the Employer under Section 5 being
non-deductible to the Employer pursuant to Section 280G of the Code and subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code. If the payments and benefits 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 counsel selected by the Employer and paid by the
Employer. Such counsel shall promptly prepare the foregoing opinion, but in no event later than 10 business days from the Date of Termination; and may use such actuaries as such counsel deems necessary or advisable for the purpose. Nothing contained
herein 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)(2) 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 Association pursuant to employee benefit plans of the Employer or otherwise. 
 8. Withholding. All
payments required to be made by the Employer hereunder to the Executive shall be subject to the withholding of such amounts, if any, relating to tax and other payroll deductions as the Employer may reasonably determine should be withheld pursuant to
any applicable law or regulation. 
 9. Assignability. The Employer may assign this Agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder
in whole, but not in part, to any corporation, association or other entity with or into which the Employer may hereafter merge or consolidate or to which the association may transfer all or substantially all of its assets, if in any such case said
corporation, association or other entity shall by operation of law or expressly in writing assume all obligations of the Employer 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. 
 10.
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
