Insured at time of death shall be entitled to the same benefit amounts set forth under
Paragraph 6A.






	 	C.	 	Should the Executive be involuntarily terminated before the Early Retirement
Age specified in his Executive Supplemental Compensation Agreement, as amended then
this Agreement shall terminate in accordance with Paragraph 9 and no benefits provided
by this Agreement shall be paid to Insured or Insured’s beneficiary(ies).

interest in any endowment proceeds or annuity benefits, on expiration of the deferment period,
shall be determined under the provisions of this Agreement by regarding such endowment proceeds or
the commuted value of such annuity benefits as the Policy’s cash value. Such endowment proceeds or
