8.2

Termination   The Employer has established this Supplemental Plan B with the bona fide intention and expectation that from year to year it will deem it advisable to continue it in effect.  However, the Employer, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to terminate the Supplemental Plan B in its entirety at any time without the consent of any Participant; provided, however, that no such termination shall (i) result in or cause an acceleration of payments or benefits under this Supplemental Plan B, unless the termination satisfies the Code section 409A safe harbor summarized in the last sentence of this Section 8.2, or (ii) without the express written consent of such Participant, reduce or otherwise adversely affect the Participants Accrued Benefit as of the date of such termination.  Any such termination shall be accomplished by resolution of the Benefit Plans Committee adopted at a meeting duly called or by unanimous written consent in accordance with the Employers Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws and applicable law.  Payments under this Supplemental Plan B may be accelerated upon plan termination only if:

(i)

the Employer is terminating an entire category of aggregated plans, that is, all other plans of a similar type (i.e., that are required to be aggregated with the terminating plan under the Code section 409A final regulations);

(ii)

all payments to the Directors as a result of the plan termination are not made until at least twelve (12) months after action taken to terminate the plan is taken, that is, all payments must be made between 13 and 24 months after the date such action is taken; and

(iii)

no similar successor plan can be established within three (3) years following the date the action to terminate the plan was taken.



ARTICLE IX. SOURCE OF BENEFIT PAYMENTS

9.1

Unfunded Plan  No special or separate fund shall be established by the Employer and no segregation of assets shall be made to assure the payment of benefits under the Supplemental Plan B. No Participant shall have any right, title, or interest whatsoever in any specific asset of the Employer.  Nothing contained in this Supplemental Plan B and no action taken pursuant to its provisions shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship, between the Employer and a Participant or any other person.  To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments under this Supplemental Plan B, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Employer.

ARTICLE X. CODE SECTION 409A MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

10.1

Interpretation Consistent with Code Section 409A The intent is that payments and benefits under this Supplemental Plan B comply with Code section 409A and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Supplemental Plan B shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith.  If any provision of this Supplemental Plan B would cause the Participant to incur any additional tax or interest under Code section 409A, the Benefit Plans Committee, to the extent feasible, shall reform such provision to try to comply with Code section 409A through good faith modifications to the minimum extent reasonably appropriate to conform with Code section 409A.  To the extent that any provision hereof is modified to comply with Code section 409A, such modification shall be made in good faith and shall, to the maximum extent reasonably possible, maintain the original intent of the applicable provision of this Supplemental Plan B without violating the provisions of Code section 409A.

ARTICLE XI. GENERAL

11.1

Benefits Non-Alienable   To the extent permitted by law, the right of any Participant or Beneficiary to any benefit or payment hereunder shall not be subject in any manner to attachment or other legal process, and no such benefit or payment shall be subject to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, or encumbrance.

11.2

Plan AdministrationThe Supplemental Plan B shall be operated and administered by the Plan Administrator or its duly authorized representative.

All such actions of the Plan Administrator shall be conclusive and binding on all persons.

11.3

Governing Law   This Supplemental Plan B shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut other than and without reference to any provisions of such laws regarding choice of laws or conflict of laws, to the extent such laws are not pre-empted by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

11.4

No Right to Continued Employment   The establishment of this Supplemental Plan B shall not be construed as giving to any Participant, Employee or any person whomsoever, any legal, equitable or other rights against the Employer, or its officers, directors, agents or shareholders, or as giving to any Participant or Beneficiary any interest in the assets or business of the Employer or giving any Employee the right to be retained in the employment of the Employer.  All Employees and Participants shall be subject to discharge to the same extent they would have been if this Supplemental Plan B had never been adopted.

11.5

Tax Withholding  The Employer may withhold from a payment any federal, state or local taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to such payments and such sums as the Employer may reasonably estimate are necessary to cover taxes for which the Employer may be liable and which may be assessed with regard to such payment.
