 NOW THEREFORE, it is agreed as follows:

programs), whether similarly situated service providers have been treated consistently, and whether the Director is permitted, and realistically available, to perform services for other service recipients in the same line of business. The Director

in the transfer of a controlling interest in the stock of the Bank, or (iii) any transfer by such Mutual Holding Company of Middle Tier Holding Company stock to any third party which does not result in the transfer of a controlling interest in
the stock of the Middle Tier Holding Company, constitute a Change in Control for purposes of this Agreement.

payment is scheduled to be made in a lump sum, the lump payment shall be delayed for six (6) months and instead be made on the first day of the seventh month following the Separation from Service. If the Director dies before the delayed payment
date provided for in this paragraph has been reached, then notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph to the contrary, this paragraph shall not operate to delay the commencement of payments beyond the date of the Director’s death.

ACCRUED LIABILITY RETIREMENT ACCOUNT 

The Bank shall account for the benefits provided to the Director under this Agreement in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles applied in the manner required by the Bank’s primary Federal regulator. The Bank shall establish on its books a reserve account (the “Accrued Liability Reserve Account”) into which it shall accrue no less frequently than
quarterly appropriate reserves for the obligations of the Bank under this Agreement, and from which it shall timely deduct payments by the Bank of benefits under this Agreement. The Bank shall not otherwise add to, subtract from, or adjust the
balance of the Accrued Liability Reserve Account except as necessary to conform with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles as applied in the manner required by the Bank’s primary Federal Regulator. Notwithstanding the Bank’s agreement
to create the Accrued Liability Reserve Account and its accrual of reserved funds within said account, neither the Director, nor the Director’s spouse, any legal representative or Beneficiary of the Director, any successor in interest of any of
them, or any other person, shall have any interest therein. All amounts so reserved shall continue for all purposes to be a part of the general assets of the Bank; and all legal and beneficial ownership of all amounts so reserved shall remain at all
times in the Bank. To the extent that the Director, the Director’s spouse, any legal representative or Beneficiary of the Director, any successor in interest of any of them, or any other person acquires any right to receive payments from the
Bank under this Agreement, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Bank; and such persons shall have no property interests in any specific assets of the Bank, including without limitation, said
reserves. 
  

	VIII.	 VESTING 



The Director shall be vested in the Accrued Liability Reserve Account in accordance with the following schedule, from the date the Director
first commences service with the Bank as a Director (it being understood and agreed that only continuous years of service as a Director of the Bank shall count for purposes of this vesting provision, and that no service with the Bank in any other
capacity shall count for purposes of this vesting provision), to a maximum of one hundred percent (100%).

	IX.	 TERMINATION OF SERVICE 



 

	 	A.	 Termination without Cause: 



If the Director experiences a Separation from Service for any reason other than death or termination for Cause before attaining Early
Retirement Age, the Director shall be entitled to receive a benefit equal to the portion of the Accrued Liability Reserve Account that has become vested in accordance with Paragraph VIII of this Agreement. Said benefit shall be paid in ten
(10) equal annual installments. The initial installment payment shall be made on the first day of the second month following the Director’s Separation from Service; and each subsequent annual installment payment shall be made on the same
date of each succeeding Plan Year until all of the annual payments have been made. 
 If the Director’s death should occur after such
Separation from Service but prior to the payment provided for in this Section IX. A., then said benefit shall be paid to the Director’s Beneficiary by the Bank in a single lump sum on the first day of the second month following the month of the
Director’s death, and shall be in lieu of any other benefit under this Agreement. 
  

	 	B.	 Discharge for Cause; or Prior to Vesting: 



Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if the Director shall be discharged for Cause at any time, or experience a
Separation from Service prior to completion of seven (7) continuous years of service as a director of the Bank, this Agreement shall terminate and all benefits provided herein shall be forfeited. If a dispute arises as to discharge “for
Cause,” such dispute shall be resolved by arbitration as set forth in Section XV. of this Agreement. In the alternative, if the Director is permitted to resign as an alternative to being discharged for Cause, the Board of Directors may, by
majority vote, terminate all benefits under this Agreement. 
  

	X.	 CHANGE IN CONTROL 



Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Director shall be entitled to a benefit in the amount of the Retirement Benefit payable to the
Director pursuant to Paragraph V. A., which benefit shall be calculated as if the Director had been continuously employed by the Bank until the date on which the Director had attained the Retirement Date. For purposes of calculating the
Director’s Final Base Fee as of the Retirement Date, it shall be assumed that the Director’s fees would have increased by 4% per year from the Change in Control until the Director attained the Retirement Date. Said benefit shall be payable
in a single lump sum upon the date of the Change in Control. In addition, no Change in 

  
 7 













 Control of the Bank shall take place unless the new or surviving entity expressly
acknowledges the obligations under this Agreement and agrees to abide by its terms. 
  

	XI.	 RESTRICTIONS ON FUNDING 



Neither the adoption and maintenance of this Agreement, nor any action taken pursuant to this Agreement shall create or be deemed to create a
trust or fiduciary relationship of any kind. At no time shall the Director, the Director’s spouse, any legal representative or Beneficiary of the Director, any successor in interest of any of them, or any other person, be deemed to have any
lien, right, title or interest in any specific investment or asset of the Bank; all such assets shall continue for all purposes to be a part of the general assets of the Bank; and all legal and beneficial ownership of such assets shall remain at all
times in the Bank. To the extent that the Director, the Director’s spouse, any legal representative or Beneficiary of the Director, any successor in interest of any of them, or any other person acquires any right to receive payments from the
Bank under this Agreement, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Bank; and such persons shall have no property interests in any specific assets of the Bank. 

Except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section VII of this Agreement, the Bank reserves the absolute right, in its sole discretion, to
earmark and set aside assets to satisfy the obligations undertaken by the Bank under this Agreement and to determine the extent, nature and method of such provision, or to refrain from so doing. Should the Bank elect to provide for its obligations
under this Agreement, in whole or in part, through the purchase of life insurance, mutual funds, disability policies or annuities, the Bank reserves the absolute right, in its sole discretion, to terminate such policies and such provision,
earmarking and set-aside at any time, in whole or in part. 
 If the Bank elects to invest in a life
insurance, disability or annuity policy on the life of the Director, then the Director shall assist the Bank by freely submitting to a physical exam and supplying such additional information necessary to obtain such insurance or annuities. 

 

	XII.	 BENEFICIARY 



The Director shall have the right to name a Beneficiary of the Death Benefit. The Director shall have the right to name such Beneficiary at any
time prior to the Director’s death and submit it to the Plan Administrator (or Plan Administrator’s representative) on the form provided. Once received and acknowledged by the Plan Administrator, the form shall be effective. The Director
may change a Beneficiary designation at any time by submitting a new form to the Plan Administrator. Any such change shall follow the same rules as for the original 

  
 8 













 Beneficiary designation and shall automatically supersede the existing Beneficiary form on
file with the Plan Administrator. 
 If the Director dies without a valid Beneficiary designation on file with the Plan Administrator, death
benefits shall be paid to the Director’s estate. 
 If the Plan Administrator 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 Plan Administrator may direct distribution of such benefit to the guardian, legal representative or person having
the care or custody of such minor, incompetent person or incapable person. The Plan Administrator may require proof of incompetence, minority or guardianship as it may deem appropriate prior to distribution of the benefit. Any distribution of a
benefit shall be a distribution for the account of the Director and the Beneficiary, as the case may be, and shall be a complete discharge of any liability under the Agreement for such distribution amount. 

 

	XIII.	 MISCELLANEOUS 



 

	 	A.	 Alienability and Assignment Prohibition: 



Neither the Director, the Director’s spouse, any legal representative or Beneficiary of the Director, any successor in interest of any of
them, or any other person shall have any power or right to transfer, assign, anticipate, hypothecate, mortgage, commute, modify or otherwise encumber in advance any of the benefits payable hereunder nor shall any of said benefits be subject to
seizure for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by the Director or the Director’s spouse, any legal representative or Beneficiary of the Director, any successor in interest of any of them, or any other
person, nor be transferable by operation of law in the event of bankruptcy, insolvency or otherwise.

consent of the Director and the Bank. Any such amendment shall not be effective to decrease or restrict any Director’s accrued benefit under this Agreement, determined as of the date of amendment, unless agreed to in writing by the Director,
and provided further, no amendment shall be made, or if made, shall be effective, if such amendment would cause all or any part of the benefits provided hereunder to be included in the gross income of the Director under Code
Section 409A(c)(l)(A), or cause the Agreement to violate Code Section 409A. In the event this Agreement is terminated, such termination shall not cause a distribution of benefits, except under limited circumstances as permitted under Code

	 	G.	 Partial Invalidity: 



If any term, provision, covenant, or condition of this Agreement is determined by an arbitrator or a court, as the case may be, to be invalid,
void, or unenforceable, such determination shall not render any other term, provision, covenant, or condition invalid, void, or unenforceable, and the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such partial invalidity. 

 

	 	H.	 Not a Contract of Employment: 



This Agreement shall not be deemed to constitute a contract of employment between the parties hereto, nor shall any provision hereof restrict

the response period by a second thirty (30) day extension period by notifying the claimant in writing, prior to the end of the initial thirty (30) day extension period that an additional extension period is required. Each notice of
extension must set forth the special circumstances and the date by which the Plan Administrator expects to render its decision.

adverse benefit determination on review. 


  

	 	C.	 Review Procedure. If the Plan Administrator denies part or all of the claim, the claimant shall have the
opportunity for a full and fair review by the Plan Administrator of the denial, as follows: 


  

	 	1.	 Initiation - Written Request. To initiate the review, the claimant, within one hundred eighty
(180) days after receiving the Plan Administrator’ s notice of denial of a claim that constitutes a claim for disability benefits, and within sixty (60) days after receiving the Plan Administrator’s notice of denial of any other
sort of claim, must file with the Plan Administrator a written request for review. 


  

	 	2.	 Additional Submissions - Information Access. The claimant shall then have the opportunity to submit
written comments, documents, records and other information relating to the claim. The Plan Administrator shall also provide the claimant, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records and other
information relevant (as defined in applicable ERISA regulations) to the claimant’s claim for benefits. 



  
 15 














	 	3.	 Nature of Review - Considerations on Review. The Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion, hold a
hearing to review the claim. In considering the claim on review, the Plan Administrator shall take into account all materials and information the claimant submits relating to the claim, without regard to whether such information was submitted or
considered in the initial benefit determination. Additional considerations shall be required in the case of a claim for disability benefits. If the claim under review pertains to disability benefits, the review shall be made by members of the Plan
Administrator other than the original decision maker(s) and such person(s) shall not be subordinate(s) of the original decision maker(s). In addition, the claim will be reviewed without deference to the initial adverse benefits determination and, if
the initial adverse benefit determination was based in whole or in part on a medical judgment, the Plan Administrator will consult with a health care professional with appropriate training and experience in the field of medicine involving the
medical judgment. The health care professional who is consulted on appeal will not be the same individual who was consulted during the initial determination or the subordinate of such individual. If the Plan Administrator obtained the advice of
medical or vocational experts in making the initial adverse benefits determination (regardless of whether the advice was relied upon), the Plan Administrator will identify such experts. 



 

	 	4.	 Timing of Plan Administrator Response. The Plan Administrator shall respond in writing to the claimant
within sixty (60) days after receiving the request for review, if the request for review does not pertain to a claim for disability benefits. If the request for review pertains to a claim for disability benefits, the Plan Administrator shall
respond in writing to the claimant within forty-five (45) days after receiving the request for review. If the Plan Administrator determines that special circumstances require additional time for processing the request for review, and the
request for review does not pertain to a claim for disability benefits, the Plan Administrator can extend the response period by an additional sixty (60) days by notifying the claimant in writing , prior to the end of the initial sixty
(60) day period, that an additional period is required. If the request for review pertains to a claim for disability benefits, and the Plan Administrator determines that special circumstances require additional time for processing the request
for review, the Plan Administrator can extend the response period by an additional forty-five (45) days by notifying the claimant in writing, prior to the end of the initial forty-five (45) day period that an additional period is required.
The notice of extension must set forth the special circumstances and the date by which the Plan Administrator expects to render its decision. 



  
 16 














	 	5.	 Notice of Decision. The Plan Administrator shall notify the claimant in writing of its decision on
review. The Plan Administrator shall write the notification in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant. If the Plan Administrator denies part or all of the claim, the notification shall set forth: 



 

	 	(a)	 The specific reasons for the denial; 



 

	 	(b)	 A reference to the specific provisions of the Agreement on which the denial is based; 



 

	 	(c)	 A statement that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to,
and copies of, all documents, records and other information relevant (as defined in applicable ERISA regulations) to the claimant’s claim for benefits; 


  

	 	(d)	 In the case of a notification pertaining to a claim for disability benefits, such additional information as is
required in order to comply with the requirements of DOL Reg. 2560.503-1(j)(5), or any successor thereto; 


  

	 	(e)	 Any additional information required to be provided under ERISA or its implementing regulations; and



  

	 	(f)	 A statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under ERISA Section 502(a).



  

	 	6.	 Arbitration. If a claimant continues to dispute an adverse benefit determination after the Plan
Administrator has issued its notice of decision on review, then the claimant shall submit the dispute to arbitration in accordance with the provisions of Section XV of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary:
(i) any such arbitration shall be conducted in a manner that complies with all applicable requirements of ERISA and its implementing regulations, including, in the case of a dispute pertaining to the denial of a claim for disability benefits,
the requirements of DOL Reg. 2560.503-l(c)(4) or any successor thereto; and (ii) the claimant shall not be precluded, as a result of submitting the claim to arbitration, from exercising any rights granted
to the claimant under ERISA Section 502(a) or other applicable law. 


  

	 	7.	 Exhaustion of Remedies. A claimant must follow the claims review procedures under this Agreement and
exhaust his or her administrative remedies before taking any further action with respect to a claim for benefits. 



  
 17 














	XV.	 ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES 



Except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section XIV. C. 6. of this Agreement: 

 

	 	A.	 If a dispute arises out of or relates to this Agreement, or the breach hereof, and if such dispute is not
settled within a commercially reasonable time (not to exceed sixty (60) days, through negotiations), the parties shall attempt in good faith to settle the dispute by mediation under the Commercial Mediation Rules of the American Arbitration
Association before resorting to litigation. No resolution or attempted resolution of any dispute or disagreement pursuant to this Section XV shall be deemed a waiver of any term or provision of this Agreement or consent to any breach or default,
unless such waiver or consent shall be in writing and signed by the party claimed to have waived or consented. 


  

	 	B.	 Any dispute or controversy not settled in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section XV shall be
settled exclusively by binding arbitration to be conducted before three (3) arbitrators in Concord, New Hampshire in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. Each party shall select one (1) such
arbitrator and two (2) arbitrators so selected shall choose a third. 


  

	 	C.	 The parties covenant and agree that they will participate in such mediation and/or arbitration in good faith
and that the Bank will bear the fees and expenses of such proceeding charged by the American Arbitration Association (including the fees of the arbitrators.) In arbitration, the arbitrator shall not have the power to award damages in excess of
actual compensatory damages and shall not multiply actual damages or award punitive damages or any other damages, and each party hereby irrevocably waives any claim to such damages. 



 

	 	D.	 The patties hereto agree that they and their heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns shall be
bound by the decision of such arbitrator with respect to any controversy properly submitted to it for determination. 


  

	XVI.	 TERMINATION OR MODIFICATION OF AGREEMENT BY REASON OF CHANGES IN THE LAW, RULES OR REGULATIONS



 The Bank is entering into this Agreement upon the assumption that certain existing tax laws, rules and regulations
will continue in effect in their current form. If any said assumptions should change and said change has a detrimental effect on this Agreement, then the Bank reserves the right to terminate or modify this Agreement accordingly. Any such termination
or modification shall not be effective to decrease or restrict any Director’s Accrued Liability Retirement Account under this Agreement, determined as of the date of amendment, unless agreed to in writing by the Director, and provided further,
no amendment shall be 

  
 18 













 made, or if made, shall be effective, if such termination or modification would cause all or
any part of the benefits provided hereunder to be included in the gross income of the Director under Code Section 409A(c)(l )(A), or cause the Agreement to violate Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. In the event this Agreement is
terminated, such termination shall not cause a distribution of benefits, except under limited circumstances as permitted under Section 409A (i.e., 30 days before or 12 months after a Change in Control event, upon termination of all arrangements
of the same type, or upon corporate dissolution or bankruptcy). Upon a Change in Control, this paragraph shall become null and void effective immediately upon said Change in Control. 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto acknowledge that each has carefully read this Agreement and executed the original thereof on the
first day set forth hereinabove, and that, upon execution, each has received a conforming copy.
