 ARTICLE III - PARTICIPATION 

Participant shall be eligible to participate, and shall commence participation, in the Plan on the Effective Date. 

ARTICLE IV - BENEFITS 
  

	4.1	 Plan Benefit 



Upon Participant’s Normal Retirement Date and subject to Section 4.7, Employer shall commence to pay to Participant the Plan Benefit
which is a monthly benefit equal to the Target Percentage of Final Average Compensation offset by the total of the Employer portion of Participant’s Social Security benefits at Normal Retirement Date, the Actuarial Equivalent of the portion of
Participant’s CBERA Plan A 401 (k) balance attributable to the Employer’s matching contributions payable as a single life annuity at Normal Retirement Date, and Participant’s benefits paid under the Employer’s CBERA Plan C
pension plan payable as a single life annuity with ten (10) years guaranteed at Normal Retirement Date. Such benefit shall be paid in the form of an Actuarial Equivalent 10-year certain and life annuity.

  

	4.2	 Vesting 



Participant shall vest in his Plan Benefit immediately. 
  

	4.3	 Separation from Service Prior to Normal Retirement Age 



Subject to Section 4.7 of this Plan, if Participant has a Separation from Service prior to Normal Retirement Age, Employer shall pay to
Participant a benefit equal to the Plan Benefit described in Section 4.1 of this Plan calculated as of the date of Separation from Service. Payments shall commence on the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date. 

 

	4.4	 Forfeiture of Benefits 



Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, the payment of benefits under this Plan may, at the discretion of the Board, be
discontinued, and such benefits forfeited if Participant is involuntarily Separated from Service for Cause. 
  

	4.5	 Disability Benefit 



If Participant becomes Disabled, Employer shall pay to Participant a benefit equal to the Actuarial Equivalent of the Plan Benefit described in
Section 4.1 of this Plan, assuming the Participant continued to perform services for Employer to Normal Retirement Age and that the Participant’s Compensation increased each year by five percent (5%) from date of Disability to Normal
Retirement Age. This benefit shall be calculated assuming that Participant would have continued to contribute to the retirement plans offsetting the Plan Benefit in 4.1 at the same rate, and these plans would provide a six percent (6%) return on
investment. Such payments shall commence on the first day of the month following the date the Participant is determined to be Disabled. 
  

	4.6	 Death Benefit 



Prior to Commencement of Benefits. If Participant dies prior to the commencement of benefits under this Plan, Employer shall pay to the
Beneficiary a benefit equal to the Actuarial Equivalent of the Plan Benefit described in Section 4.1 of this Plan, assumed to be payable at Normal Retirement Date, and assuming the Participant continued to perform services for Employer to
Normal Retirement Age and that the Participant’s Compensation increased each year by five percent (5%) from date of death to Normal Retirement Age. This benefit shall be calculated assuming that Participant would have continued to contribute to
the retirement plans offsetting the Plan Benefit in 4.1 at the same rate, and these plans would provide a six percent (6%) return on investment. Such benefit shall be paid in a single lump sum within ninety (90) days of the Participant’s
date of death. 

  
 4 













 (a) During Distribution of Benefits. If the Participant dies after any benefit distributions
have commenced under this Agreement, but before receiving all distributions, the Bank shall distribute to the Beneficiary the remaining benefits at the same time and in the same amounts the benefits would have been distributed to the Participant had
the Participant survived. 
  

	4.7	 Change in Control 



Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, in the event of a Change in Control of the Bank, prior to commencement of benefits under
this Plan, the Participant shall be entitled to a benefit equal to the Actuarial Equivalent of the Plan Benefit described in Section 4.1 of this Plan, assumed to be payable at Normal Retirement Date, and assuming the Participant continued to
perform services for Employer to Normal Retirement Age and that the Participant’s Compensation increased each year by five percent (5%) from the date of the Change in Control to Normal Retirement Age. This benefit shall be calculated assuming
that Participant would have continued to contribute to the retirement plans offsetting the Plan Benefit in 4.1 at the same rate, and these plans would provide a six percent (6%) return on investment. Such benefit shall be paid in a single lump sum
within ninety (90) days of the Change in Control. 
  

	4.8	 Time of Payment 



Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, if Participant is a Specified Employee on the date of Separation from Service (except
due to death), the Participant shall not receive a distribution of any amount under this Plan, until the first day of the seventh month following the date of Separation from Service. In the event a distribution must be delayed, the first payment
shall include an amount equal to the sum of the monthly payments which would have been paid to the Participant but for the payment deferral mandated pursuant to this Section. 

ARTICLE V - BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION 
  

	5.1	 Beneficiary Designation 



Participant shall have the right, at any time, to designate one (1) or more persons or entities as Beneficiary (both primary as well as
secondary) to whom benefits under this Plan shall be paid in the event of the Participant’s death prior to complete distribution of the Participant’s vested benefit. Each Beneficiary designation shall be in a written form prescribed by the
Employer and shall be effective only when filed with the Employer during the Participant’s lifetime. 
  

	5.2	 Changing Beneficiary 



Any Beneficiary designation may be changed by Participant without the consent of the previously named Beneficiary by the filing of a new
Beneficiary designation with the Employer. The filing of a new designation shall supersede all designations previously filed. If the Participant’s Compensation is community property, any Beneficiary designation shall be valid or effective only
as permitted under applicable law. 
  

	5.3	 No Beneficiary Designation 



If any Participant fails to designate a Beneficiary in the manner provided above, if the designation is void, or if the Beneficiary dies before
the Participant or before complete distribution of the Participant’s benefits, the Participant’s Beneficiary shall be the person in the first of the following classes in which there is a survivor: 

(a) The Participant’s surviving spouse; 

(b) The Participant’s children in equal shares, except that if any of the children predecease the Participant with
surviving issue, then such issue shall take by right of representation; 
 (c) The Participant’s estate. 

  
 5 














	5.4	 Effect of Payment 



Payment to the Beneficiary shall completely discharge the Employer’s obligations to the Participant and Beneficiary under this Plan. 

ARTICLE VI - ADMINISTRATION 
  

	6.1	 Administration 



The Plan shall be administered by the Employer through its authorized officers, who shall have the authority to make, amend, interpret and

	6.3	 Binding Effect of Decisions

application of the Plan and the rules and regulations promulgated hereunder shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all persons having any interest in the Plan. 

ARTICLE VII - CLAIMS PROCEDURE 
  

	7.1	 Claim Procedures 



Any person claiming a benefit (“Claimant”) under the Plan shall present the request in writing to the Administrative Committee. 

(a) Initial Claim Review. If the claim is wholly or partially denied, the Administrative Committee will, within ninety
(90) days (one hundred eighty (180) days in special circumstances) after the receipt of such claim, provide the Claimant with written notice of the denial setting forth in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant: 

(i) The specific reason or reasons for which the claim was denied; 

(ii) Specific reference to pertinent provisions of the Plan, rules, procedures or protocols upon which the Board relied to deny
the claim; 
 (iii) A description of any additional material or information that the Claimant may file to perfect the claim
and an explanation of why this material or information is necessary; 
 (iv) An explanation of the Plan’s claims review
procedure and the time limits applicable to such procedure and a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA following an adverse determination upon review. 

If special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the claim, the Claimant will be notified within the initial ninety
(90) day review period of the special circumstances requiring the extension and the date by which the Administrative Committee expects to render a decision. 

In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the claim relates to a disability determination (“Disability Claim”), the decision
shall be rendered within forty-five (45) days after receipt of the claim, which may be extended 

  
 6 













 
twice by an additional thirty (30) days per extension for matters beyond the control of the Administrative Committee. The claimant will be notified in writing of any such extension(s) before
the end of the applicable decision period, as well as the circumstances requiring the extension, the date by which a decision on the claim is expected to be rendered and such other information required by ERISA. 

(b) Review of Claim. If a claim for benefits is denied, in whole or in part, the Claim- ant may request to have the claim
reviewed. The Claimant will have sixty (60) days (one hundred and eighty (180) days in the case of a Disability Claim) after receiving notice of the adverse benefit determination in which to request a review. The request must be in writing
and delivered to the Administrative Committee. If no such review is requested, the initial decision of the Administrative Committee will be considered final and binding. 

The Administrative Committee’s decision on review shall be sent to the Claimant in writing and shall include specific reasons for the
decision, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant, as well as specific references to the pertinent Plan provisions, rules, procedures or protocols upon which the Administrative Committee relied to deny the appeal. The
Administrative Committee shall consider all information submitted by the Claimant, regardless of whether the information was part of the original claim. The decision shall also include a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring an action
under Section 502(a) of ERISA if the claim is denied on review. 
 The Administrative Committee’s decision on review shall be made
not later than sixty (60) days (forty-five (45) days in the case of a Disability Claim) after its receipt of the request for review, unless special circumstances, such as the need to hold a hearing, require a longer period of time, in
which case a decision shall be rendered as soon as possible but not later than one hundred and twenty (120) days after receipt of the claimant’s request for review ninety (90) days in the case of a Disability Claim). If the
Administrative Committee generates any new evidence during the process of reviewing a Disability Claim, the claimant shall be provided with such new evidence in sufficient time to respond to the new evidence within the review period. If special
circumstances require an extension of time for processing, the Claimant will be notified within the initial sixty (60) day period of the special circumstances requiring the extension and the date by which the Administrative Committee expects to
render a decision. 
 The decision on review shall be in writing and shall include specific reasons for the decision written in a manner
calculated to be understood by the claimant with specific reference to the provisions of the Plan on which the decision is based and other information required by ERISA, as well as an explanation of the claimant’s right to submit the claim for
binding arbitration in the event of an adverse determination on review (or legal action in the case of a Disability claim). 
 (c)
Exhaustion of Plan’s Claims and Review Procedures Required; Limitations on Legal Actions. The Plan’s claims and appeal procedures described above must be exhausted with respect to any claim of any kind relating to the Plan. If any legal
action is permitted to be filed with respect to a Disability Claim under the Plan, such action must be brought by the claimant no later than one (1) year after the Administrative Committee’s denial of the claim on review, regardless of any
state or federal statutes establishing provisions relating to limitations on actions. 
 ARTICLE VIII - AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PLAN

 The Board may, in its sole discretion and at any time, amend or terminate the Plan by a written instrument subject to the following:

 (a) No amendment or termination shall adversely affect the benefits of Participants which have already accrued and vested,
the benefits of any Participant who had a Separation from Service prior to the amendment or termination, or the benefits of any Participant who has died; and 

(b) Any amendment to, or termination of, the Plan, including any change in the timing or form of payment of benefits, including
the total liquidation of the Plan, shall comply with Code Section 409A. 

  
 7 













 ARTICLE IX - MISCELLANEOUS 

 

	9.1	 Unfunded Plan 



This Plan is an unfunded plan maintained primarily to provide deferred compensation benefits for a select group of “management or highly
compensated employees” within the meaning of Sections 201, 301, and 401 of ERISA, and therefore is exempt from the provisions of Parts 2, 3 and 4 of Title I of ERISA. The Board may terminate the Plan and make no further benefit payments or
remove certain employees as Participants if it is determined by the United States Department of Labor, a court of competent jurisdiction, or an opinion of counsel that the Plan constitutes an employee pension benefit plan within the meaning of
Section 3(2) of ERISA which is not so exempt. 
  

	9.2	 Unsecured General Creditor 



Participant and his or her Beneficiaries, heirs, successors, and assigns shall have no secured legal or equitable rights, interest or claims in
any property or assets of the Employer, nor shall they be beneficiaries of, or have any rights, claims or interests in, any life insurance policies, annuity contracts or the proceeds therefrom owned or which may be acquired by the Employer. Such
policies, annuity contracts or other assets of the Employer shall not be held in any trust for the benefit of Participant, his Beneficiaries, heirs, successors or assigns, or held in any way as collateral security for the fulfilling of the
obligations of the Employer under this Plan. Any and all of the Employer’s assets and policies shall be, and remain, the general, unpledged, unrestricted assets of the Employer. The Employer’s obligation under the Plan shall be an unfunded
and unsecured promise to pay money in the future. 
  

	9.3	 Trust Fund 



In its discretion, the Employer may establish one (1) or more trusts, with such trustees as the Employer may approve, for the purpose of
providing for the payment of benefits owed under this Plan. Although such a trust shall be irrevocable, its assets shall be held for payment to the Employer’s general creditors in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy. To the extent any
benefits provided under this Plan with respect to Participants are paid from any such trust, the Employer shall have no further obligation to pay them. If not paid from the trust, such benefits shall remain the obligation solely of the Employer.

  

	9.4	 Nonassignability 



Participant shall not have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer,
hypothecate or convey in advance of actual receipt the amounts, if any, payable hereunder, or any part thereof, which are, and all rights to which are, expressly declared to be unassignable and nontransferable. No part of the amounts payable shall,
prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by Participant, nor shall they be transferable by operation of law in the event of the Participant’s
bankruptcy or insolvency. 
 Notwithstanding the above paragraph, the Employer may accelerate the time for paying benefits to someone other
than the Participant to the extent necessary to fulfill a domestic relations order (as defined in Code Section 414(p)(l)(B)). 
  

	9.5	 Not a Contract of Employment 



This Plan shall not constitute a contract of employment between the Employer and any Participant. Nothing in this Plan shall give Participant
the right to be retained in the service of the Employer or to interfere with the right of the Employer to discipline or discharge the Participant at any time. 

  
 8 














	9.6	 Participant Cooperation 



Participant shall cooperate with the Employer by furnishing any and all information requested by the Employer in order to facilitate the
payment of benefits hereunder, and by taking such physical examinations as the Employer may deem necessary and taking such other action as may be requested by the Employer. 
  

	9.7	 Governing Law 



The provisions of this Plan shall be construed and interpreted according to the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts except as preempted
by federal law and in accordance with and subject to any applicable federal laws to which the Employer may be subject as an FDIC insured institution. 
  

	9.8	 Validity 



If any provision of this Plan is held illegal or invalid for any reason, said illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts
hereof, but this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal and invalid provision had never been inserted herein. 
  

	9.9	 Successors 



The provisions of this Plan shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Employer and its successors and assigns. The term successors shall
include any corporate or other business entity which shall, whether by merger, consolidation, purchase or otherwise, acquire all or substantially all of the business and assets of the Employer, and successors of any such corporation or other
business entity. 
  

	9.10	 Notices 



All notices shall be in writing, and shall be sufficiently given if delivered to the Employer at its principal place of business, or to the
Participant at his last known address as shown in the Employer’s records, in person, by Federal Express or similar receipted delivery, or, if mailed, postage prepaid, by certified mail, return receipt requested. The date of such mailing shall
be deemed the date of notice, demand or consent. 
  

	9.11	 Compliance with Code Section 409A 



All provisions in this document shall be interpreted, to the extent possible, to be compliant with Code Section 409A. However, in the
event any provision of this Plan is determined to not be in compliance with Code Section 409A and any regulations or other guidance promulgated thereunder, such provision shall be null and void to the extent of such noncompliance. 

  
 9 














	9.12	 Entire Agreement 



This Plan constitutes the entire understanding and agreement with respect to the subject matter contained herein. There are no agreements,
understandings, restrictions, representations or warranties among any Participant and the Employer pertaining to the subject matter hereof, other than those as set forth or provided for herein.
