2.Position and Duties; Location; Standard of Services.
(a)Position and Duties.  During the Employment Period, Executive shall serve as President of the Company and the Bank and shall perform customary and appropriate duties as may be reasonably assigned to Executive from time to time by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) or the Board of Directors of the Bank (the “Bank Board”).

(c)Standard of Services.  During the Employment Period, Executive agrees to devote Executive’s full business attention and time to the business and affairs of the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates and to use Executive’s best efforts to perform faithfully and efficiently such responsibilities.  During the Employment Period, Executive may serve on civic, charitable or other not-for-profit boards or committees, deliver lectures, fulfill speaking engagements or teach at educational institutions, manage personal investments and, subject to the prior written approval of the Board, a committee thereof or the Chief Executive Officer (which approval may be withheld in the sole discretion of the Board, such committee or the Chief Executive Officer), serve on boards of for-profit entities, in each case, so long as such activities do not interfere with the performance of Executive’s responsibilities in accordance with this Agreement and Executive complies with applicable provisions of any codes of business conduct and ethics of the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates, as in effect from time to time.
3.Compensation and Employee Benefits.
(a)Annual Base Salary.  During the Employment Period, Executive shall receive an annual base salary (the “Annual Base Salary”) of no less than $500,000, payable in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices.  The Annual Base Salary shall be reviewed periodically by the Board or an appropriate committee thereof (the Board or such committee, the “Committee”) for possible increase, as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Committee.  The term “Annual Base Salary” as used in this Agreement shall refer to the Annual Base Salary as it may be so adjusted from time to time.

During the Employment Period, Executive shall have the opportunity to earn, for each fiscal year of the Company, an annual bonus (the “Annual Bonus”) pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Management Incentive Plan, as in effect from time to time or any successor thereto (the “MIP”).  Executive’s target Annual Bonus opportunity in respect of each fiscal year during the Employment Period (the “Target Annual Bonus”) shall be 45% of his Annual Base Salary; provided, however, with respect to fiscal year 2021 only, partially in consideration for Executive’s prior service as Interim Chief Executive Officer, his target Annual Bonus opportunity shall be $295,017 (which is approximately 51.67% of an Annual Base Salary of $571,000).  The Annual Bonus shall be payable at the same time as bonuses are generally payable to other senior executives of the Company subject to Executive’s continued employment with the Company or its Affiliates through such date.  The Company shall have no obligation to award an Annual Bonus in any given year, and the Annual Bonus shall not be considered an acquired right of Executive, even if it is paid on a repeated basis.  
(c)Long-Term Incentive Awards.  Executive shall be eligible to participate in the Company’s long-term equity incentive plans and programs, as in effect from time to time, that are generally applicable to other senior executives of the Company; provided, that in respect of fiscal year 2022 only, partially in consideration for Executive’s prior service as Interim Chief Executive Officer, Executive shall be eligible for long-term equity incentive awards with an aggregate grant date value of $409,217, which shall be granted (i) 50% in the form of a performance-based restricted stock or restricted stock unit award, which shall cliff vest on the

4.Termination of Employment.
(a)Death or Disability.  Executive’s employment shall terminate automatically upon Executive’s death during the Employment Period.  If the Board determines in good faith that the Disability of Executive has occurred during the Employment Period (pursuant to the definition of Disability set forth below), it may provide Executive with written notice in accordance with Section 11(b) of its intention to terminate Executive’s employment.  In such event, Executive’s employment with the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates shall terminate effective on the thirtieth (30th) day after Executive’s receipt of such notice (the “Disability Effective Date”), provided that, within the thirty (30) days after such receipt, Executive shall not have returned to fulltime performance of Executive’s duties.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean the absence of Executive from Executive’s duties with the Company and the Bank on a fulltime basis for ninety (90) consecutive days, or for one hundred twenty (120) days (which need not be consecutive) within a one-year period, as a result of incapacity due to mental or physical illness.

(b)Cause.  the Company and the Bank may terminate Executive’s employment during the Employment Period either with or without Cause.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean, as determined by the Board:
(i)Failure to substantially perform employment duties as reasonably assigned hereunder (other than by reason of Disability), after reasonable written demand for substantial performance has been delivered by the Company specifically identifying the manner in which the Company believes Executive has not performed Executive’s duties, and Executive has been given a reasonable opportunity (not to exceed fifteen (15) days) to cure any deficiencies in performance;
(ii)Willful misconduct that demonstrably results in material injury to the Company, the Bank or their Affiliates;
(iii)Fraud, dishonesty or willful breach of fiduciary duty that is injurious to the Company, the Bank or their Affiliates;

(vi)A material breach by Executive of (A) Executive’s obligations under this Agreement, including any breach of the provisions of Section 7, or (B) any material written policy of the Company, the Bank or their Affiliates and, if the breach is curable, Executive shall not have cured such material breach after reasonable written demand for cure has been delivered by the Company specifically identifying the material breach, and Executive has been given a reasonable opportunity (not to exceed fifteen (15) days) to cure any such material breach (to the extent curable).
(c)Good Reason.  Executive’s employment may be terminated by Executive either with or without Good Reason.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean Executive’s voluntary resignation after any of the following actions are taken by the Company, the Bank or any of their Affiliates without Executive’s written consent:
(i)The material diminution of Executive’s duties, authority or responsibility, including a requirement that Executive report to a corporate officer or employee instead of reporting directly to the Chief Executive Officer;
(ii)A material change in the geographic location at which Executive must perform services (in this case, a material change means any location more than forty (40) land-miles from the location contemplated by this Agreement);
-4-






(iii)A material diminution in Executive’s base salary (in this case, a material diminution means a reduction of more than ten percent (10%) in Executive’s Annual Base Salary); or
(iv)A material breach by the Company of this Agreement.
In order to invoke a termination for Good Reason, Executive shall provide written notice to the Company of the existence of one or more of the conditions described in clauses (i) through (iv) within ninety (90) days following the initial existence of such condition or conditions, specifying in reasonable detail the conditions constituting Good Reason, and the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates shall have thirty (30) days following receipt of such written notice (the “Cure Period”) during which they may remedy the condition.  In the event that the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates fail to remedy the condition constituting Good Reason during the applicable Cure Period, Executive’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (collectively, with the regulations and other guidance promulgated thereunder, the “Code”)) must occur, if at all, within thirty (30) days following such Cure Period in order for such termination as a result of such condition to constitute a termination for Good Reason.
(d)Notice of Termination.  Any termination by the Company or the Bank with or without Cause, or by Executive with or without Good Reason, shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto given in accordance with Section 11(b).  For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” means a written notice that (i) indicates the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, (ii) to the extent applicable, sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated and (iii) specifies the Date of Termination (as defined below), which date shall be not more than thirty (30) days after the delivery of such notice, or the end of any Cure Period referenced in such notice, as applicable.
(e)Date of Termination.  “Date of Termination” means (i) if Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company or the Bank with or without Cause, or by Executive for Good Reason, the date of receipt of the Notice of Termination or any later date specified therein within thirty (30) days following such notice, (ii) if Executive’s employment is terminated voluntarily without Good Reason, the thirtieth (30th) day following the date of receipt of the Notice of Termination, provided that the Company may in its discretion accelerate the Date of Termination, or (iii) if Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of death or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the date of death of Executive or the Disability Effective Date, as the case may be.
(f)Resignation from Other Positions.  Upon the termination of Executive’s employment for any reason (unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Company and Executive), Executive shall be deemed to have resigned, without any further action by Executive, from any and all officer and director positions that Executive, immediately prior to such termination, held with (i) the Company, the Bank or any of their respective Affiliates and (ii) any other entities at the direction of, or as a result of Executive’s affiliation with, the Company, the Bank or any of their respective Affiliates.  If for any reason this Section 4(f) is deemed to be insufficient to 
-5-






effectuate such resignations, then Executive shall, upon the Company’s request, execute any documents or instruments that the Company may deem necessary or desirable to effectuate such resignations.  In addition, Executive hereby designates the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Company, the Bank and of any Affiliate to execute any such documents or instruments as Executive’s attorney-in-fact to effectuate such resignations if execution by the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Company, the Bank or the Affiliate is deemed by the Company, the Bank or the Affiliate to be a more expedient means to effectuate such resignation or resignations.
5.Obligations of the Company upon Termination.  
(a)Other Than for Cause, Death or Disability.  If, during the Employment Period, the Company and its Affiliates terminate Executive’s employment other than for Cause or Disability, other than within twenty-four (24) months following the consummation of a Change in Control (in which case Section 5(b) shall apply), then, subject to Executive’s execution within fifty (50) days following the Date of Termination, and non-revocation, of a release of claims in a form satisfactory to the Company (the “Release”), the Company shall pay to Executive the following:

(ii)any unpaid Annual Bonus earned by Executive in respect of the fiscal year of the Company that was completed on or prior to the Date of Termination (the “Unpaid Annual Bonus”), which shall include the Transition Award prior to the date the Transition Award is otherwise paid pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, which Unpaid Annual Bonus shall be paid in a lump sum in cash within sixty (60) days following the Date of Termination (other than any portion of such Unpaid Annual Bonus that was deferred, which portion shall instead be paid in accordance with the applicable deferral arrangement and any election thereunder);
(iii)an amount equal to the product of (A) two (2) multiplied by (B) the Annual Base Salary and Target Annual Bonus, which shall be paid in equal installments over the two-year period following the Date of Termination in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices as of the Date of Termination; provided, however, that any amounts payable in respect of the first sixty (60) days following the Date of Termination shall be accrued and paid in a lump sum on such sixtieth (60th) day or the first business day thereafter;
(iv)an amount equal to the product of (A) the amount of the monthly premiums for coverage under the Company’s or and its Affiliates’ health care plans for purposes of continuation coverage under Section 4980B of the Code with respect to the level of coverage in effect for Executive and Executive’s spouse and dependents as of immediately prior to the

(v)to the extent not theretofore paid or provided, the Company shall timely pay or provide, in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan, program, policy, practice or contract, to Executive any other amounts or benefits required to be paid or provided or that Executive is eligible to receive under any plan, program, policy, practice or contract of the Company through the Date of Termination (such other amounts and benefits shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Other Benefits”).
If Executive does not execute the Release within fifty (50) days following the Date of Termination, or if Executive revokes the Release, Executive shall be entitled to only the compensation and benefits contemplated by Sections 5(a)(i) and (v).

(b)Change in Control Termination.  If, during the Employment Period, the Company or the Bank terminates Executive’s employment other than for Cause or Disability, or Executive terminates employment for Good Reason, in each case, within twenty-four (24) months following the consummation of a Change in Control, then, subject to Executive’s execution within fifty (50) days following the Date of Termination, and non-revocation, of the Release, the Company shall pay to Executive the following:
(i)the Accrued Obligations, the Unpaid Annual Bonus and the Other Benefits in accordance with the terms of Sections 5(a)(i), (ii) and (v), respectively;

within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code shall instead be paid on the schedule contemplated by Section 5(a)(iv) to the extent required by Section 409A of the Code; and
(iv)an amount equal to the product of (x) the Target Annual Bonus for the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs (or, if greater, for the fiscal year in which the Change in Control occurs) and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs through the Date of Termination, and the denominator of which is 365, payable in a lump sum within sixty (60) days following the Date of Termination.
For the avoidance of doubt, if applicable, any amount payable pursuant to Section 5(b) shall be determined without regard to any reduction in compensation that resulted in Executive’s termination of employment for Good Reason.

However, if one or more of the provisions contained in this Section 7(c) shall for any reason be held to be unenforceable because of the duration or scope of such provision or the area covered thereby, Executive and the Company agree that the court making such determination shall have the full power to reform, by “blue penciling” or any other means, the duration, scope and/or area of such provision and in its reformed form such provision shall then be enforceable and shall be binding on the parties.
-12-






vii.Nondisparagement.  During the Employment Period and thereafter, Executive shall not make, either directly or by or through another person, any oral or written negative, disparaging or adverse statements or representations of or concerning the Company, the Bank or any of their Affiliates, any of their Customers or any of their current or former directors, officers or employees.
viii.Return of Property.  Executive acknowledges that all documents, records, files, lists, equipment, computer, software or other property (including intellectual property) relating to the businesses of the Company or any of its Affiliates, in whatever form (including electronic), and all copies thereof, that have been or are received or created by Executive while an employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates (including Confidential Information) are and shall remain the property of the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates, and Executive shall immediately return such property to the Company upon the Date of Termination and, in any event, at the Company’s request.  Executive further agrees that any property situated on the premises of, and owned by, the Company or any of its Affiliates, including disks and other storage media, filing cabinets or other work areas, is subject to inspection by the Company’s personnel at any time with or without notice.
ix.Remedies and Injunctive Relief.  Executive acknowledges that a violation by Executive of any of the covenants contained in this Section 7 would cause irreparable damage to the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates in an amount that would be material but not readily ascertainable, and that any remedy at law (including the payment of damages) would be inadequate. Accordingly, Executive agrees that, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in addition to any other damages it is able to show, in the event of a violation by Executive of any of the covenants contained in this Section 7, the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates shall be entitled (without the necessity of showing economic loss or other actual damage) to (i) cease payment of the compensation and benefits contemplated by Section 5 to the extent not previously paid or provided, (ii) the prompt return by Executive of any portion of such compensation and the value of such benefits previously paid or provided, other than with respect to an immaterial breach of the covenants that does not result in harm to the Company, the Bank or their respective Affiliates, and (iii) injunctive relief (including temporary restraining orders, preliminary injunctions and permanent injunctions), without posting a bond, in any court of competent jurisdiction for any actual or threatened breach of any of the covenants set forth in this Section 7 in addition to any other legal or equitable remedies it may have.  The preceding sentence shall not be construed as a waiver of the rights that the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates may have for damages under this Agreement or otherwise, and all such rights shall be unrestricted.  In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of this Section 7 is invalid or more restrictive than permitted under the governing law of such jurisdiction, then, only as to enforcement of this Section 7 within the jurisdiction of such court, such provision shall be interpreted and enforced as if it provided for the maximum restriction permitted under such governing law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and the Bank hereby inform Executive that, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, an individual may not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (A) is made in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either 
-13-






directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, and solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (B) is made in a complaint or other document that is filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding.  Further, an individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the employer’s trade secrets to the attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.  In addition, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall impair Executive’s rights under the whistleblower provisions of any applicable federal law or regulation or, for the avoidance of doubt, limit Executive’s right to receive an award for information provided to any government authority under such law or regulation.
x.Acknowledgements.
g.Executive acknowledges that the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates have expended and will continue to expend substantial amounts of time, money and effort to develop business strategies, employee, customer and other relationships and goodwill to build an effective organization. Executive acknowledges that the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates have a legitimate business interest in and right to protect its Confidential Information, goodwill and employee, customer and other relationships, and that the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates would be seriously damaged by the disclosure of Confidential Information and the loss or deterioration of its employee, customer and other relationships.  Executive further acknowledges that the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates are entitled to protect and preserve the going concern value of the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates to the extent permitted by law.
h.In light of the foregoing acknowledgments, Executive agrees that the covenants contained in this Agreement are reasonable and properly required for the adequate protection of the businesses and goodwill of the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates.  Executive further acknowledges that, although Executive’s compliance with the covenants contained in this Agreement may prevent Executive from earning a livelihood in a business similar to the business of the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates, Executive’s experience and capabilities are such that Executive has other opportunities to earn a livelihood and adequate means of support for Executive and Executive’s dependents.  Accordingly, Executive agrees not to challenge or contest the reasonableness, validity or enforceability of any limitations on, and obligations of, him contained in this Agreement.
xi.No Restrictions. Executive hereby warrants and represents that he is entering into this Agreement voluntarily and is not subject to any restrictive covenant or other agreement or contractual restriction that would prevent Executive from performing Executive’s obligations hereunder.  To the extent Executive is subject to confidentiality obligations to a former employer or any third party, Executive acknowledges and agrees that it is Executive’s responsibility to ensure that he complies with such obligations on a continuing basis.  Executive acknowledges that the Company and the Bank are relying upon Executive’s warranty, representation and acknowledgement in this Section 7(h) in entering into this Agreement and that, in the event of a 
-14-






breach of this warranty and representation, the Company will have grounds to terminate Executive’s employment for Cause.  In the event of any claim against Executive by any third party arising out of a breach of this Section 7(h), Executive agrees to indemnify and hold the Company, the Bank and their Affiliates (and their directors, officers and employees) harmless from and against all costs, claims and damages arising from such third party’s claim.
8.Treatment of Certain Payments.
xii.Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event the Accounting Firm (as defined below) shall determine that receipt of all Payments (as defined below) would subject Executive to the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, the Accounting Firm shall determine whether to reduce any of the Payments paid or payable pursuant to the Agreement (the “Agreement Payments”) so that the Parachute Value (as defined below) of all Payments, in the aggregate, equals the Safe Harbor Amount (as defined below).  The Agreement Payments shall be so reduced only if the Accounting Firm determines that Executive would have a greater Net After-Tax Receipt (as defined below) of aggregate Payments if the Agreement Payments were so reduced.  If the Accounting Firm determines that Executive would not have a greater Net After-Tax Receipt (as defined below) of aggregate Payments if the Agreement Payments were so reduced, Executive shall receive all Agreement Payments to which Executive is entitled hereunder.
xiii.If the Accounting Firm determines that aggregate Agreement Payments are either subject to the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code or should be reduced so that the Parachute Value of all Payments, in the aggregate, equals the Safe Harbor Amount, the Company shall promptly give Executive advance notice to that effect and a copy of the detailed calculation thereof.  The Company also agrees to cooperate with Executive and Executive’s consultants and advisors during the course of the Accounting Firm’s determination process.  All determinations made by the Accounting Firm under this Section 8 shall be binding upon the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates and Executive and shall be made as soon as reasonably practicable and in no event later than fifteen (15) days following the Date of Termination.  For purposes of reducing the Agreement Payments so that the Parachute Value of all Payments, in the aggregate, equals the Safe Harbor Amount, only amounts payable under the Agreement (and no other Payments) shall be reduced.  The reduction of the amounts payable hereunder, if applicable, shall be made by reducing the payments and benefits under the following sections in the following order:  (i) cash payments that may not be valued under Treas. Reg. § 1.280G-1, Q&A-24(c) (“24(c)”), (ii) equity-based payments that may not be valued under 24(c), (iii) cash payments that may be valued under 24(c), (iv) equity-based payments that may be valued under 24(c) and (v) other types of benefits.  With respect to each category of the foregoing, such reduction shall occur first with respect to amounts that are not “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and next with respect to payments that are deferred compensation, in each case, beginning with payments or benefits that are to be paid the farthest in time from the determination of the Accounting Firm.  All reasonable fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company.
-15-






xiv.To the extent requested by Executive, the Company shall cooperate with Executive in good faith in valuing, and the Accounting Firm shall take into account the value of, services provided or to be provided by Executive (including Executive’s agreeing to refrain from performing services pursuant to a covenant not to compete or similar covenant) before, on or after the date of a change in ownership or control of the Company (within the meaning of Q&A-2(b) of the final regulations under Section 280G of the Code), such that payments in respect of such services may be considered reasonable compensation within the meaning of Q&A-9 and Q&A-40 to Q&A-44 of the final regulations under Section 280G of the Code and/or exempt from the definition of the term “parachute payment” within the meaning of Q&A-2(a) of the final regulations under Section 280G of the Code in accordance with Q&A-5(a) of the final regulations under Section 280G of the Code.  The Company agrees, at its expense, to engage a reasonable third-party advisor (which may be the Accounting Firm) to assist the Company performing such a valuation of Executive’s post-employment covenants.

j.“Net After-Tax Receipt” shall mean the present value (as determined in accordance with Sections 280G(b)(2)(A)(ii) and 280G(d)(4) of the Code) of a Payment net of all taxes imposed on Executive with respect thereto under Sections 1 and 4999 of the Code and under applicable state and local laws, determined by applying the highest marginal rate under Section 1 of the Code and under state and local laws which applied to Executive’s taxable income for the immediately preceding taxable year, or such other rate(s) as the Accounting Firm determines to be likely to apply to Executive in the relevant tax year(s).
k.“Parachute Value” of a Payment shall mean the present value as of the date of the change of control for purposes of Section 280G of the Code of the portion of such Payment that constitutes a “parachute payment” under Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code, as determined by the Accounting Firm for purposes of determining whether and to what extent the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code will apply to such Payment.
l.“Payment” shall mean any payment or distribution in the nature of compensation (within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code) to or for the benefit of Executive, whether paid or payable pursuant to the Agreement or otherwise.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement that are subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be made in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, including, where applicable, the requirement that (A) any reimbursement is for expenses incurred during Executive’s lifetime (or during a shorter period of time specified in this Agreement); (B) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other calendar year; (C) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made no later than the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred; and (D) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
p.Delay of Payments.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if Executive is considered a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code (as determined in accordance with the methodology established by the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates as in effect on the Termination Date), any payment that constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code that is otherwise due to Executive under this Agreement during the six-month 
-19-






period immediately following Executive’s separation from service (as determined in accordance with Section 409A of the Code) on account of Executive’s separation from service shall be accumulated and paid to Executive on the first business day of the seventh month following Executive’s separation from service (the “Delayed Payment Date”), to the extent necessary to prevent the imposition of tax penalties on Executive under Section 409A of the Code.  If Executive dies during the postponement period, the amounts and entitlements delayed on account of Section 409A of the Code shall be paid to the personal representative of Executive’s estate on the first to occur of the Delayed Payment Date or 30 calendar days after the date of Executive’s death.
xxv.Amendments.  No provision of this Agreement shall be modified or amended except by an instrument in writing duly executed by the parties hereto.

No waiver by any party of any breach by the other party of any term or provision hereof shall be deemed to be an assent or waiver by any party to or of any succeeding breach of the same or any other term or provision.  
xxvi.Background Check.  Executive’s employment with the Company and the Bank pursuant to this Agreement shall be contingent on Executive’s successful completion of a background and reference check.

xxvii.Entire Agreement.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the terms and conditions of Executive’s employment with the Company, the Bank and their respective Affiliates, including Executive’s severance entitlements, and, as of the Effective Date, supersedes and cancels in their entirety all prior understandings, agreements and commitments, whether written or oral, relating to the terms and conditions of employment between Executive, on the one hand, and the Company, the Bank or their Affiliates, on the other hand, including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Severance Agreement between Executive and the Company, dated May 17, 2019 and the Confidentiality, Trade Secrets, Non-Solicitation and Severance Agreement between Executive and the Company and the Bank, dated October 14, 2020.  For the avoidance of doubt, this Agreement does not supersede the award agreements governing Executive’s equity award agreements with the Company, including the restricted stock award agreement dated October 12, 2020, which shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms.
