allegedly constituting) Good Reason, written notice of the intention to terminate for Good Reason, and, upon receipt of such notice, the Bank shall have a thirty (30) day period within which to cure such condition(s); and provided further that
the Bank may waive such right to notice and opportunity to cure. In no event may facts or circumstances constituting “Good Reason” arise after the occurrence of facts or circumstances that the Bank relies upon, in whole or in material

Retirement Date, and the subsequent installments shall be distributed on the first through ninth anniversary of such initial installment. For purposes of Code Section 409A, all such installments shall be treated as a single payment.

percent (20%) of the average level of bona fide services performed (whether as an employee, independent contractor or other service provider) over the preceding thirty-six (36) month period

individual designated by the Board to participate in the Plan in accordance with Section 3.1 shall become a Participant upon executing a written instrument of participation in such form as the Bank approves (which may be in the form set forth

 - 3 -









 
Board action designating such individual as a participant in the Plan unless otherwise provided by the Board. A Participant’s participation in the Plan shall end upon the first to occur of
(i) the distribution of 100% of the Participant’s benefit, (ii) the Participant’s Separation from Service with a Benefit Percentage of less than ten percent (10%), (iii) the Participant’s Separation from Service for
Cause, (iv) the termination of the Plan and (v) the amendment of the Plan to render the Participant ineligible to participate, subject to Article VIII. 
 ARTICLE IV 
 Eligibility for Benefit 

4.1 Separation from Service. In no event shall any benefit be payable under the Plan to a Participant prior to such
Participant’s Separation from Service, provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent a distribution required in connection with the Plan’s termination, in whole or in part, or as otherwise required by applicable law. 

4.2 Minimum Required Benefit Percentage; Forfeiture. In no event shall any benefit be payable under this Plan if either
(i) the Participant’s Benefit Percentage is less than ten percent (10%) at Separation from Service, or (ii) the Participant Separates from Service due to termination for Cause or resignation under circumstances that the Board
determines to constitute Cause. 
 ARTICLE V 
 Payment of Benefit 
 5.1 Time and Form of Benefit. A Participant who
Separates from Service for reasons other than Cause and whose Benefit Percentage is greater than zero percent (0%) shall be entitled to a benefit to be distributed in the Normal Distribution Form, such distribution to commence within sixty
(60) days after the later to occur of (i) the date the Participant separates from service with the Bank and (ii) the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date. 
 5.2 Death. In the event that the Participant whose Benefit Percentage is greater than zero percent (0%) dies prior to Separation from Service, the Participant’s benefit shall be distributed in
the Normal Distribution Form commencing on the date the Participant would have attained age sixty-two (62) if the Participant had survived (or, if later, within thirty (30) days after the
Participant’s date of death), such benefit to be distributed to the Participant’s surviving designated beneficiary or, in the absence thereof, to the Participant’s estate. In the event that the Participant dies after Separation from
Service but prior to distribution in full of the Participant’s benefit, the undistributed payment(s) shall be paid to the Participant’s designated beneficiary or, in the absence of a surviving designated beneficiary (including due to the
death of a designated beneficiary prior to payment of the final payment), to the Participant’s estate. 
 ARTICLE VI

 Claims Procedure. 
 6.1 In the event the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary in the case of the Participant’s death or their authorized representative (hereinafter, the “Claimant”) asserts a
right to a benefit under this Plan which has not been received, in whole or in part, the Claimant must file with the Bank a claim for such benefit on forms provided by the Bank. The Bank shall


  
 - 4 -









 
render its decision on the claim within ninety (90) days after receipt of the claim. If special circumstances apply, the ninety (90) day period may be extended by an additional ninety
(90) days, provided written notice of the extension is given to the Claimant during the initial ninety (90) day period and such notice indicates the special circumstances requiring an extension of time and the date by which the Bank
expects to render its decision on the claim. If the Bank wholly or partially denies the claim, the Bank shall provide written notice to the Claimant. 
 6.2 For purposes of ERISA, including ERISA Section 501 et seq., the Bank, acting through the Board, shall be the Plan administrator with respect to this Plan. As Plan administrator, the Bank
shall have complete authority, in its sole and absolute discretion, to interpret the provisions of this Plan and make determinations regarding eligibility. Without limiting the foregoing, it is the Bank’s intent that the Plan be administered in
a manner compliant with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, and regulations and rulings issued thereunder so as not to subject the benefits accruing hereunder to taxation pursuant to said Section 409A(a)(1). 

ARTICLE VII 

Funding 

7.1 General Obligation of the Bank. The benefits provided under the Plan constitute a mere promise by the Bank to make payments in
the future, and the rights of the Participant hereunder shall be those of a general unsecured creditor of the Bank. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to create a trust of any kind or to render the Bank a fiduciary with respect to the
Participant. The Bank shall not be required to maintain any fund or segregate any amount or in any other way currently fund the future payment of any benefit provided under the Plan, and nothing contained herein shall be construed to give the
Participant or any other person any right to any specific assets of the Bank or of any other person. This Plan is intended to be, and shall in all events be construed and treated as, a deferred compensation arrangement for a “select group of
management and highly compensated employees,” within the meaning of Title I of ERISA. 
 7.2 Use of Trust, Insurance
Policies, Etc. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Bank may, in its sole and absolute discretion, establish a trust to which funds earmarked for payment under this Plan may be transferred and from which benefits arising hereunder, and subject to
the provisions and limitations hereof, may be paid. Any such trust would contain provisions making it irrevocable by the Bank unless and until all benefits hereunder which are funded through such trust have been paid or provided for, except in the
case of bankruptcy or insolvency of the Bank, in which event benefit payments from the trust would cease and assets thereof would revert to the Bank or be paid to its creditors. The Bank may, for its corporate purposes, choose to obtain a policy or
policies of life insurance on the Participant. The Participant agrees to fully cooperate in connection with the securing of any such policy or policies or the election of any options thereunder which the Bank may wish and that the Participant will
be available for medical examinations if necessary.

 ARTICLE VIII 
 Amendment and Termination 
 8.1 Amendment. The Board shall have the
right to amend, alter or modify the Plan at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part; provided, however, that to the extent that any amendment, alteration or modification reduces the amount of any benefit to which a Participant would have
a vested entitlement if the Participant resigned without Good Reason immediately prior to the effective date of such amendment, or changes the form in which such benefit is to be distributed, such amendment shall become effective without the consent
of such affected Participant(s). 
 8.2 Termination. The Board shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate
the Plan, in whole or in part, at any time; provide, however that no such action shall reduce the amount to which a Participant would have a vested entitlement if the Participant resigned without Good Reason immediately prior to the effective date
of such amendment. 
 ARTICLE IX 
 Miscellaneous 
 9.1 Provision for Incapacity. If the Board
reasonably deems any individual incapable of receiving benefits by reason of illness, infirmity or incapacity of any kind, the Bank may make payment of such benefits to any one or more persons or representatives as provided in a written direction
received from the affected individual while competent and, in the absence of any such written direction, to such individual(s) as the Board designates and shall fully discharge the Bank from all obligations liability under this Plan. 

9.2 Non-assignable Rights. Except as otherwise provided by the Plan, neither the
Participant nor the Participant’s surviving spouse shall have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer or otherwise convey the right to receive any payments hereunder, which payments and the right thereto are expressly declared to be non-assignable and non-transferable. 
 9.3
Independence of Plan. The benefits payable under the Plan shall be independent of, and in addition to, any employment agreement that may exist from time to time between the parties hereto, or any compensation payable by the Bank to the
Participant other than supplemental retirement benefits, whether as salary, bonus or otherwise. 
 9.4 At-Will Status. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan, the Participant is employed at-will, so that the Participant or the Bank may terminate the Participant’s
employment at any time, with or without notice, for any or no reason. 
 9.5 Conditions of Benefits; Effect on the
Participant’s Post-Employment Obligations. In the event that the Participant becomes entitled to a benefit distribution in connection with a involuntary termination prior to attainment of the Participant’s maximum Benefit Percentage,
then the Participant shall be eligible to receive the benefits provided under this Plan, only if the Participant executes a general release, in a form acceptable to the Bank, within fifty (50) days (or such longer period as may be required by
applicable law including, without limitation, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act) of the date of the termination of the Participant’s employment.

 9.6 Taxes. All payments and benefits described in this Plan shall be subject to any
and all applicable federal, state and local income, employment and other taxes, and the Bank will deduct from each payment to be made to the Participant under this Plan such amounts, if any, required to be deducted or withheld under applicable law.
The Participant hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Bank makes no representations or warranties regarding the tax treatment or tax consequences of any compensation, benefits or other payments under the Plan, or under any statute, or regulation
or guidance thereunder, or under any successor statute, regulation and guidance thereunder. 
 9.7 Code
Section 409A. It is the intent of the parties that this Plan, and all payments of deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A made hereunder, shall be in compliance with such requirements and the regulations and other guidance
thereunder. Notwithstanding any other provision with respect to the timing of payments under this Plan, if, at the time of the Participant’s separation from service, the Participant is a “specified employee” (meaning a key employee as
defined in Section 416(i) of the Code without regard to paragraph 5 thereof) of the Bank (or a Bank affiliate), then to the extent necessary to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A, any payments to which the Participant is
entitled under this Plan during the six month period commencing on the Participant’s separation from service which are subject to Code Section 409A (and not otherwise exempt from its application including, without limitation, by operation
of Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-1(n)) will be withheld until the first business day of the seventh month following the Participant’s separation from service, at which time such withheld amount shall be paid in a lump-sum distribution. 
 9.8 Limitation on Benefits. In no event shall the Bank be
obligated to make any payment pursuant to this Plan that is prohibited by Section 18(k) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (codified at 12 U.S.C. sec. 1828(k)), 12 C.F.R. Part 359, or any other applicable law. It is the intention of the
Participant and of the Bank that no payments by the Bank to or for the benefit of the Participant under this Plan or any other agreement or plan pursuant to which Participant is entitled to receive payments or benefits shall be non-deductible to the Bank by reason of the operation of Code Section 280G relating to parachute payments. If all, or any portion, of the payments provided under this Plan, either alone or together with other
payments and benefits which the Participant receives or is entitled to receive from the Bank, would constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Code Section 280G, the payments and benefits provided under this Plan shall be
reduced to the extent necessary so that no portion thereof shall fail to be tax-deductible by operation of Code Section 280G (such reduced amount being referred to hereinafter as the “280G Maximum
Amount”). To the extent that payments exceeding the 280G Maximum Amount have been made to or for the benefit of the Participant, such excess payments shall be refunded to the Bank with interest thereon at the applicable federal rate determined
under Code Section 1274(d), compounded annually. 
 9.9 Assumption of Obligation. No sale, merger, consolidation or
conversion of the Bank shall take place unless the new or surviving entity expressly acknowledges the obligations under this Plan and agrees to abide by its terms. 
 9.10 Governing Law. The Plan shall be construed under and governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts except to the extent pre-empted by ERISA.
