                                         of the Bank. This amount is payable in a lump sum upon the death of the Executive.

                                         have commenced under Article 2 of the ESCA but before receiving all such payments, the
                                         Bank shall cease paying the remaining benefit, if any, and shall then pay to the Executive’s

                                         is payable in a lump sum upon the death of the Executive.
