|4.1 | Termination
  for Cause. Notwithstanding any provision of this
  Agreement to the contrary, the Executive shall forfeit any right to a benefit
  under this Agreement if the Bank terminates the Executives employment for
  cause. Termination of the Executives employment for Cause shall mean
  termination because of personal dishonesty, willful misconduct, breach of
  fiduciary duty involving personal profit, intentional failure to perform
  stated duties, 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 the Executives part shall be
  considered willful unless done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive not
  in good faith and without reasonable belief that the Executives action or
  omission was in the best interest of the Bank.

  federal banking agency pursuant to Section 8(e) of the Federal Deposit
  Insurance Act (FDIA).

  insurance company denies coverage (i) for material misstatements of fact made
  by the Executive 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.

|5.2 | Beneficiary
  Designation; Change. The Executive shall designate a
  Beneficiary by completing and signing the Beneficiary Designation Form, and
  delivering it to the Bank or its designated agent. The Executives
  beneficiary designation shall be deemed automatically revoked if the
  Beneficiary predeceases the Executive or if the Executive names a spouse as
  Beneficiary and the marriage is subsequently dissolved. The Executive shall
  have the right to change a Beneficiary by completing, signing and otherwise
  complying with the terms of the Beneficiary Designation Form and the Banks
  rules and procedures, as in effect from time to time. Upon the acceptance by
  the Bank of a new Beneficiary Designation Form, all Beneficiary designations
  previously filed shall be cancelled. The Bank shall be entitled to rely on
  the last Beneficiary Designation Form filed by the Executive and accepted by
  the Bank prior to the Executives death.

|5.5 | Facility of Payment. If the Bank determines in its discretion
that a benefit is to be paid to a minor, to a person declared incompetent, or
to a person incapable of handling the disposition of that persons property,
the Bank may direct payment of 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. Any payment of a benefit shall be a payment for
the account of the Executive and the Executives Beneficiary, as the case may
be, and shall be a complete discharge of any liability under the Agreement
for such payment amount.

  Banks Response. The Bank shall respond in writing
  to such claimant within 60 days after receiving the request for review. If
  the Bank determines that special circumstances require additional time for
  processing the claim, the Bank can extend the response period by an
  additional 60 days by notifying the claimant in writing, prior to the end of
  the initial 60-day period, that an additional period is required. The notice
  of extension must set forth the special circumstances and the date by which
  the Bank expects to render its decision.
