Article 6 
 General
Limitations 
  

	6.1	Excess Parachute or Golden Parachute Payment. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Bank shall not pay any benefit under this Agreement to the extent the benefit would be an
“excess parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code, or would be a prohibited golden parachute payment pursuant to 12 C.F.R. §359.2 and for which the appropriate federal banking agency has not given written consent to pay
pursuant to 12 C.F.R. §359.4. All benefits payable under this Agreement shall also be subject to limitations or prohibitions imposed by subsequent changes or amendments to the cited laws and regulations, except to the extent that any benefits

willful violation of any law, rule or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses) or final cease-and-desist order or material breach of any provision of the Agreement. For purposes of this paragraph, no act or failure to act on

	6.3	Removal. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Director’s rights in the Agreement shall terminate if the Director is subject to a final removal or prohibition order issued by

to and conditioned upon compliance with 12 U.S.C. 1828 and FDIC regulation 12 CFR Part 359, Golden Parachute Indemnification Payments and any other regulations or guidance promulgated thereunder. 


  
 5 









	6.4	Forfeiture Provision. The Director shall forfeit any non-distributed benefits under this Agreement if during the term of this Agreement, the Director, directly or indirectly, either as an individual or as a
proprietor, stockholder, partner, officer, director, employee, agent, consultant or independent contractor of any individual, partnership, corporation or other entity (excluding an ownership interest of three percent (3%) or less in the stock
of a publicly-traded company): 

  

	 	(i)	becomes employed by, participates in, or becomes connected in any manner with the ownership, management, operation or control of any bank, savings and loan or other similar financial institution if the Director’s
responsibilities will include providing banking or other financial services within twenty-five (25) miles of any office maintained by the Bank as of the date of Separation from Service; 


 

	 	(ii)	participates 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

	 	(iv)	sells, offers to sell, provides banking or other financial services, assists any other person in selling or providing banking or other financial services, or solicits or otherwise competes for, either directly or
indirectly, any orders, contract, or accounts for services of a kind or nature like or substantially similar to the financial services performed or financial products sold by the Bank (the preceding hereinafter referred to as “Services”),
to or from any person or entity from whom the Director or the Bank, to the knowledge of the Director 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 Separation from Service; 

  

	 	(v)	divulges, discloses, or communicates to others in any manner whatsoever, any confidential information of the Bank, to the knowledge of the Director, including, but not limited to, the names and addresses of customers or
prospective customers, of the Bank, as they may have existed from time to time, of work performed or services rendered for any customer, any method and/or procedures relating to projects or other work developed for the Bank, earnings or other
information concerning the Bank. The restrictions contained in this subparagraph (v) apply to all information regarding the Bank, regardless of the source who provided or compiled such information. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, all
information referred to herein shall not be disclosed unless and until it becomes known to the general public from sources other than the Director. 


  
 6 









	 	6.4.1	Judicial Remedies. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Director of any provision of these restrictions, the Director recognizes the substantial and immediate harm that a breach or threatened
breach will impose upon the Bank, and further recognizes that in such event monetary damages may be inadequate to fully protect the Bank. Accordingly, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, the Director consents to the
Bank’s entitlement to such ex parte, preliminary, interlocutory, temporary or permanent injunctive, or any other equitable relief, protecting and fully enforcing the Bank’s rights hereunder and preventing the Director from further
breaching any of his obligations set forth herein. The Director expressly waives any requirement based on any statute, rule of procedure, or other source that the Bank post a bond as a condition of obtaining any of the above-described remedies.
Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting the Bank from pursuing any other remedies available to the Bank at law or in equity for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from the Director. The Director expressly
acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the restrictions set forth in Section 6.4 hereof are reasonable in terms of scope, duration, geographic area, or otherwise, (ii) the protections afforded the Bank in Section 6.4 hereof are
necessary to protect its legitimate business interest, (iii) the restrictions set forth in Section 6.4 hereof will not be materially adverse to the Director’s service with the Bank, and (iv) his agreement to observe such
restrictions forms a material part of the consideration for this Agreement. 

  

	 	6.4.2	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, breadth and duration. 

  

	 	6.4.3	Change in Control. The forfeiture provision detailed in Section 6.4 hereof shall not be enforceable following a Change in Control. 


 

	6.5	Suicide or Misstatement. No benefits shall be payable if the Director commits suicide within two years after the date of this Agreement, or if the insurance company denies coverage (i) for material
misstatements of fact made by the Director on any application for life insurance purchased by the Bank, or (ii) for any other reason; provided, however that the Bank shall evaluate the reason for the denial, and upon advice of legal counsel and
in its sole discretion, consider judicially challenging any denial. 

 Article 7 

Assignment 
 The Director
may irrevocably assign without consideration all of the Director’s Interest in this Agreement to any person, entity, or trust. In the event the Director shall transfer all of the Director’s Interest, then all of the Director’s
Interest in this Agreement shall be vested in the Director’s transferee, who shall be substituted as a party hereunder, and the Director shall have no further interest in this Agreement.

 Article 8 

Insurer 
 The Insurer shall
be bound only by the terms of its given Policy. The Insurer shall not be bound by or deemed to have notice of the provisions of this Agreement. The Insurer shall have the right to rely on the Bank’s representations with regard to any
definitions, interpretations or Policy interests as specified under this Agreement.
