Form within 30 days after the Effective Date of this Amended Agreement. The Election Form shall set forth the amount of Compensation to be deferred and shall be effective to defer Compensation earned after the date the Election Form is received by

shall not be effective until the calendar year following the year in which the subsequent Election Form is received and approved by the Bank. 
  
 ARTICLE 3 
  
 DEFERRAL ACCOUNT 
  
 3.1 Establishing and Crediting. The Bank shall establish a Deferral Account on its books for the Director and shall credit to the Deferral Account the following amounts:

 3.1.3 Interest. At the end of each Plan Year
under this Amended Agreement, but only until commencement of benefit payments under this Amended Agreement, unless otherwise stated, interest is to be credited on the account balance at an annual rate of interest for that Plan Year, compounded

Account is solely a device for measuring amounts to be paid under this Amended Agreement. The Deferral Account is not a trust fund of any kind. The Director is a general unsecured creditor of the Bank for the payment of benefits. The benefits
represent the mere 

  

 3 








 
Bank promise to pay such benefits. The Director’s rights are not subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge,
encumbrance, attachment, or garnishment by the Director’s creditors.

during the Director’s lifetime. The Director’s beneficiary designation shall be deemed automatically revoked if the beneficiary predeceases the Director or if the Director names a spouse as beneficiary and the marriage is subsequently
dissolved. If the Director dies without a valid beneficiary designation, all payments shall be made to the Director’s estate. 
  
 6.2 Facility of Payment. If a benefit is payable to a minor, to a person declared incompetent, or to a person incapable of handling the disposition
of his or her property, the Bank may pay such benefit to the guardian, legal representative or person having the care or custody of such minor, incompetent person or incapable person. The Bank may require proof of incompetence, minority or
guardianship as it may deem appropriate prior to distribution of the benefit. Such distribution shall completely discharge the Bank from all liability with respect to such benefit. 
  
 ARTICLE 7 
  
 GENERAL LIMITATIONS 
  
 7.1 Termination for Cause. Notwithstanding any provision of this Amended Agreement to the contrary, the Bank shall not pay any benefit under this
Amended Agreement that is in excess of the Director’s Deferrals (i.e., the deferred compensation account balance under Section 3.1.1, the amount deferred under Section 3.1.2, and the interest earned on the Deferral Account) if Termination of
Service is due to the Director’s actions resulting in Termination for Cause. The Director’s Deferrals shall be paid to the Director in a manner to be determined by the Bank. No interest shall be credited to the Deferrals during any
applicable installment period. 
  

 5 








 7.2 General. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Amended Agreement, the
Director is entitled to only one benefit which shall be determined by the first event to occur which is dealt with by this Amended Agreement. Subsequent occurrence of events dealt with by this Amended Agreement shall not entitle the Director or his
or her beneficiaries to other or further benefits under this Amended Agreement. 
  
 7.3 Tax Consequences. The Bank does not insure or guarantee the tax consequences of payments provided hereunder for matters beyond its control, and the Director certifies that his decision to reduce and defer
receipt of his compensation is not due to any reliance upon financial, tax or legal advice given by the Bank, and of its employees, agents, accountants or legal advisors. 
  
 ARTICLE 8 
  
 CLAIMS AND REVIEW PROCEDURES 
  
 8.1 Claims Procedure. The Bank shall notify any person or entity that makes a claim for benefits under this Amended Agreement (the
“Claimant”) in writing, within 90 days of Claimant’s written application for benefits, of his or her eligibility or non-eligibility for benefits under this Amended Agreement. If the Bank determines that the Claimant is not eligible
for benefits or full benefits, the notice shall set forth (a) the specific reasons for such denial, (b) a specific reference to the provisions of this Amended Agreement on which the denial is based, (c) a description of any additional information or
material necessary for the Claimant to perfect his or her claim, and a description of why it is needed, and (d) an explanation of this Amended Agreement’s claims review procedure and other appropriate information as to the steps to be taken if
the Claimant wishes to have the claim reviewed. If the Bank determines that there are special circumstances requiring additional time to make a decision, the Bank shall notify the Claimant of the special circumstances and the date by which a
decision is expected to be made, and may extend the time for up to an additional 90 days. 
  
 8.2 Review Procedure. If the Claimant is determined by the Bank not to be eligible for benefits, or if the Claimant believes that he or she is entitled to greater or different benefits, the Claimant shall have
the opportunity to have such claim reviewed by the Bank by filing a petition for review with the Bank within 60 days after receipt of the notice issued by the Bank. Said petition shall state the specific reasons, which the Claimant believes entitle
him or her to benefits or to greater or different benefits. Within 60 days after receipt by the Bank of the petition, the Bank shall afford the Claimant (and counsel, if any) an opportunity to present his or her position to the Bank verbally or in
writing, and the Claimant (or counsel) shall have the right to review the pertinent documents. The Bank shall notify the Claimant of its decision in writing within the 60-day period, stating specifically the basis of its decision, written in a
manner to be understood by the Claimant and the specific provisions of this Amended Agreement on which the decision is based. If, because of the need for a hearing, the 60-day period is not sufficient, the decision may be deferred for up to another
60 days at the election of the Bank, but notice of this deferral shall be given to the Claimant. 
  
 ARTICLE 9 
  
 AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION 
  
 This Amended
Agreement may be amended or terminated only by a written agreement signed by the Bank and the Director. In no event shall this Amended Agreement be terminated without payment to the Director of the Deferral Account balance attributable to the
Director’s Deferrals and interest credited on such amounts unless the Agreement terminates as a result of Termination for Cause in which event the Director forfeits the interest credited on the Director’s Deferrals. 
  
 Notwithstanding the previous paragraph in this Article 9, the Bank may amend
or terminate this Amended Agreement at any time if, pursuant to legislative, judicial or regulatory action, continuation of this Amended Agreement would (a) cause benefits to be taxable to the Director prior to actual receipt, or (b) result in
significant financial penalties or other significantly detrimental ramifications to the Bank (other than the financial impact of paying the benefits). In no event shall this Amended Agreement be terminated 

  

 6 








 
under this paragraph without payment to the Director of the Deferral Account balance attributable to the Director’s Deferrals and interest credited on
such amounts. 
  
 ARTICLE 10 
  
 MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 10.1 Binding Effect. This Amended Agreement shall bind the Director
and the Bank and their beneficiaries, survivors, executors, administrators and transferees. 
  
 10.2 No Guarantee of Employment. This Amended Agreement is not a contract for services. It does not give the Director the right to remain a director of the Bank, nor does it interfere with shareholders’
right to replace the Director. It also does not require the Director to remain an director nor interfere with the Director’s right to terminate services at any time. 
  
 10.3 Non-Transferability. Benefits under this Amended Agreement cannot be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged,
attached or encumbered in any manner. 
  
 10.4 Tax
Withholding. The Bank shall withhold any taxes that are required to be withheld from the benefits provided under this Amended Agreement. 
  
 10.5 Applicable Law. This Amended Agreement and all rights hereunder shall be governed by the laws of Connecticut, except to the extent the laws of
the United States of America otherwise require. 
  
 10.6
Unfunded Arrangement. The Director and the Director’s beneficiary are general unsecured creditors of the Bank for the payment of benefits under this Amended Agreement. The benefits represent the mere promise by the Bank to pay such
benefits. The rights to benefits are not subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment, or garnishment by creditors. Any insurance on the Director’s life is a general asset of the
Bank to which the Director and the Director’s beneficiary have no preferred or secured claim. 
  
 10.7 Reorganization. The Bank shall not merge or consolidate into or with another Bank, or reorganize, or sell substantially all of its assets to
another Bank, firm, or person unless such succeeding or continuing Bank, firm, or person agrees to assume and discharge the obligations of the Bank under this Amended Agreement. Upon the occurrence of such event, the term “Bank” as used in
this Amended Agreement shall be deemed to refer to the successor or survivor Bank. 
  
 10.8 Entire Agreement. This Amended Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Bank and the Director as to the subject matter hereof. No rights are granted to the Director under this Amended
Agreement other than those specifically set forth herein. This Amended Agreement supersedes and replaces in its entirety the Deferred Compensation Agreement with Director dated between the Director and the Bank, as successor to Nutmeg.

to administer this Amended Agreement, including but not limited to —
