or more Executives as eligible to participate in the Plan. 
 3.2. Participation. Each Executive who has been

longer has a Deferred Incentive Account balance under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and to the extent permissible under Code Section 409A, if the Compensation Committee of the Board determines, in its sole discretion, that a
Participant is not, or may not be, a member of a “select group of management or highly compensated employees” within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3), 401(a)(1) and 4021(b)(6) of ERISA, then the Compensation Committee of the Board
may, in its sole discretion, terminate such Participant’s participation in the Plan. 
 ARTICLE 4 

INCENTIVE AWARDS 

4.1. Deferred Incentive Awards. For each position there will be an amount as per the attached Schedule A that can be
earned each year assuming the Award Objectives are accomplished as determined by the Board of Directors each year, upon meeting all of the terms and conditions of such award, entitle the Participant to a payment in cash equal to the value of the
Participant’s Deferred Incentive Account. 
 4.2. Award Objectives. The Deferred Incentive Award for each
position is based upon the objectives determined by the Board of Directors. The specific goals are determined annually, are separate from this document, and are subject to change by action of the Board of Directors or President and CEO in
consultation with the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee of the Board. 
 4.3. Establishment of Participant
Account. The Administrator or designated representative shall establish one or more Participant Deferred Incentive Accounts in the name of each Participant on its books and records. All amounts credited to the Account of any Participant, or
Beneficiary shall constitute a general, unsecured liability of the Bank, as applicable, to such person. 
 4.4. Crediting
of Accounts. Amounts shall be credited to the Participant’s Account as of the date of grant of the Deferred Incentive award to the Participant. 

4.5. Adjustment of Accounts for Earnings and Losses. Each Account shall be adjusted no less frequently than quarterly,
as determined by the Plan Administrator, by a rate of interest equal to six percent (6%) or ten (10) times the Bank’s ROA for the most recently completed year, whichever is greater though not to exceed a maximum rate of interest of 10%.
The determination of the appropriate rate of interest is in the sole discretion of the Plan Administrator. If a Participant is paid all or a portion of his Account between interest crediting dates, no interest credit will apply for the period
from and after the immediately preceding 

  
 6 

 
interest crediting date through the date of payment, unless otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator. 

4.6. Payment of Amounts Credited to Participant Deferred Incentive Account. Unless payment has already been made from a
Participant’s deferral account under another paragraph of this section, the vested amounts credited to the Account will be paid on the dates, and in the form, as was originally specified by the Participant in his or her election form(s).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Participant terminates service and is a key employee, distribution may not be made before the date which is six months after the date of separation from service, or, if earlier, the date of death of the employee.
Key employee is defined in the section 416 (i) (without regard to paragraph (5) thereof) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended. 

4.7. Payment of Amounts Credited to All Accounts upon Unforeseen Emergency. If a Participant has an “unforeseen
emergency” as defined in this paragraph, the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, may pay to the Participant only that portion of the vested portion of the Deferred Account that the Plan Administrator determines is necessary to satisfy
the emergency need, including any amounts to pay any federal, state or local income taxes reasonably anticipated to result from the distribution. A Participant requesting an emergency payment shall apply for the payment in writing in a form approved
by the Plan Administrator and shall provide such additional information as the Bank may require. “Unforeseen emergency” is defined as a severe financial hardship to the participant resulting from an illness or accident of the participant,
the participant’s spouse, or a dependent (as defined in Internal Revenue Code Section 152(a)) of the participant, loss of the participant’s property due to casualty, or other similar extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances
arising as a result of events beyond the control of the participant. The amounts distributed with respect to an emergency will not exceed the amounts necessary to satisfy such emergency plus amounts necessary to pay taxes reasonably anticipated as a
result of the distribution, after taking into account the extent to which such hardship is or may be relieved through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise or by liquidation of the participant’s assets (to the extent the
liquidation of such assets would not itself cause severe financial hardship). 
 4.8. Payment of Amounts Credited to All
Accounts upon Disability. In the event of the Participant’s disability prior to or after separation from service, all amounts credited to the Participant’s accounts shall be paid in a lump sum as soon as administratively feasible.
Disability is defined to mean that the Participant (i) is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to
last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months, or the Participant (ii) is, by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a
continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months, receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than three (3) months under an accident and health plan covering employees of the Participant’s employer. 

4.9. Payment of Amounts Credited to All Accounts upon Death. In the event of the Participant’s death, all amounts
credited to the Participant’s accounts shall be paid in a lump sum as soon as administratively feasible to the person or persons designated by the Participant on a 

  
 7 

 
beneficiary designation form supplied by the Bank. The beneficiary designation may be changed from time to time by the Participant. In the absence of a valid beneficiary designation, or if there
is no living beneficiary validly named by the Participant, then the amounts credited to a Participant’s Accounts shall be paid in accordance with Article 6 of this Plan. 

4.10. Payment Upon Change in Control. If there is a Change in Control before a Participant becomes entitled to receive
benefits by reason of any of the above sections or before the Participant has received complete payment of his benefits under this Section, the Participant shall receive a lump sum payment of the amount credited to his account(s). Payment of any
amount under this section shall be made within thirty (30) days of when the Change in Control occurs. The amount payable from any account will be valued as of the date of distribution. 

ARTICLE 5

be resolved by the Administrator. 
 ARTICLE 7 

RIGHTS OF PARTICIPANTS AND BENEFICIARIES 

7.1. Creditor Status of Participant and Beneficiary. The Plan constitutes the unfunded, unsecured promise of the Bank
to make payments to each Participant and/or Beneficiary in the future and shall be a liability solely against the general assets of the Bank. The Bank shall not be required to segregate, set aside or escrow any amounts for the benefit of any
Participant or Beneficiary. Each Participant and Beneficiary shall have the status of a general unsecured creditor of the Bank and may look only to the Bank and their general assets for payment of benefits under the Plan. 

7.2. Rights with Respect to a Trust. Any trust and any assets held thereby to assist the Bank in meeting their
obligations under the Plan shall in no way be deemed to controvert the provisions of Article 8.1 herein. 
 7.3.

annuities or other investments shall at all times be and remain unrestricted general property and assets of the Bank or property of a trust. Participants and Beneficiaries shall have no rights, other than as general creditors, with respect to such
policies, annuities or other acquired assets.

 ARTICLE 8 

TRUST

all times remain subject to the claims of general creditors of the Bank in the event of their insolvency as more fully described in the trust. 

8.2. Obligations of the Bank. Notwithstanding the fact that a trust may be established under Article 9.1 herein,
the Bank shall remain liable for paying the benefits under the Plan. However, any payment of benefits to a Participant or a Beneficiary made by such a trust or by the Bank shall satisfy the Bank’s obligation to make such payment to such person.

 8.3. Trust Terms. A trust established under Article 9.1 herein may be revocable by the Bank provided; however,

ARTICLE 9 

ADMINISTRATION 

9.1. Appointment of Administrator. The Compensation Committee of the Board may appoint the Administrator and the
Administrator may be removed or resign upon thirty (30) days written notice or such lesser period of notice as is mutually agreeable. Unless the Compensation Committee of the Board appoints another Administrator, the Compensation Committee of

 9.2. Powers and Duties of the Administrator. The Administrator shall
determine any and all questions of fact, resolve all questions of interpretation of the Plan which may arise under any of the provisions of the Plan as to which no other provision for determination is made hereunder, and exercise all other powers
and discretions necessary to be exercised under the terms of the Plan which it is herein given or for which no contrary provision is made. The Administrator shall have full power and discretion to interpret the Plan and related documents, to resolve
ambiguities, inconsistencies and omissions, to determine any question of fact, and to determine the rights and benefits, if any, of any Participant, or other applicant, in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. The Administrator’s decision

shall be liable in that regard except for gross abuse of the discretion given it and them under the terms of the Plan. All determinations of the Administrator shall be made in a uniform, consistent and nondiscriminatory manner with respect to all
Participants and 

  
 10 

 
Beneficiaries in similar circumstances. The Administrator, from time to time, may designate one or more persons or agents to carry out any or all of its duties hereunder.

 SECTION 2 

ELIGIBILITY 

2.1 Date of Participation. Each Director shall become a Participant as of the first day after the Director timely
elects to defer any portion of his or her Annual Cash Compensation pursuant to Section 3. 
 2.2 Cessation of
Participation. A Participant who ceases to be a Director will no longer be eligible to make further deferrals under the Plan pursuant to Plan Section 3, but shall continue to be subject to all other terms of the Plan so long as any amount
remains credited to his Account in the Plan. 
 SECTION 3 

DEFERRAL ELECTIONS 

3.1 Elections. A Participant who is a Director for all or any portion of the Plan Year may elect to defer under the
Plan a minimum of twenty-five percent (25%) and a maximum of one hundred percent (100%) of his Annual Cash Compensation payable to him for the Plan Year. 

3.2 Election Procedure. 

(a) Timing of Election. Each Director who first becomes eligible to participate in the Plan after the
Effective Date must submit his election to participate for the Plan Year in which he first is elected as a Director to the Plan Administrator within thirty (30) days after the date he is so elected. Each Director who is eligible to participate
in the Plan following the Plan Year in which he first becomes eligible to participate in the Plan must submit his election to participate for any such subsequent Plan Year to the Plan Administrator no later than the last day of the immediately
preceding Plan Year. In no event may a Director defer any compensation which is earned prior to the submission of a deferral election. 

(b) Form of Payment. At such time as a Participant makes his initial deferral election under the Plan,
the Participant shall elect the manner in which his Account will be distributed from the Plan as described in Section 9.1 hereof. The Participant’s initial election as to the form of payment will apply to only that year’s deferred
compensation and the accumulated earnings thereon. A new election should be filed prior to the beginning of each year, otherwise the previous election will govern deferrals for the then current year. A participant may change his election for any
year with respect to the form of payment for his Account if the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the change does not take effect until at least twelve (12) months after the date on which the election change is made; (ii) the
first payment with respect to which the change is made must be deferred for at least five (5) years from the date the payment would otherwise have been made; and (iii) if the payment is to be made at a fixed time or pursuant to a fixed
schedule, the change cannot be made less than twelve (12) months before the date of the first scheduled payment. In addition, no subsequent payment election can accelerate either the time or schedule of any payment previously established. 

  
 3 

 (c) Compensation Subject to Election. Notwithstanding
subsections (a) and (b), no deferral elections shall be effective for the portion of a Participant’s Annual Cash Compensation which has been earned on or before the date of the election. 

(d) Changes in Elections. Except as provided in Subsection (b) of this Section, a Participant may
not suspend, revoke or modify an election at any time during a Plan Year. 
 SECTION 4 

CREDITING CONTRIBUTIONS TO ACCOUNTS 

4.1 Matching Contributions. The Bank will credit each Participant’s Cash Account with a “matching”
contribution equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the elected deferral amount, up to a maximum of six thousand dollars ($6,000.00) annually. Participant deferrals in excess of six thousand dollars ($6,000.00) are not eligible for matching Bank
contributions. 
 The Bank shall credit to the Participant’s Cash Account amounts deferred under Plan Section 4 and this
Section 5 as soon as administratively practicable, but no later than thirty (30) days, after such amounts are withheld from the Participant’s Annual Cash Compensation. 

SECTION 5 
 ADJUSTMENT
OF ACCOUNTS FOR EARNINGS AND LOSSES 
 Each Cash Account shall be adjusted no less frequently than quarterly, as
determined by the Plan Administrator, by a rate of interest equal to six percent (6%) or ten (10) times the Bank’s ROA for the most recently completed year, whichever is greater though not to exceed a maximum rate of interest of 10%. The
determination of the appropriate rate of interest is in the sole discretion of the Plan Administrator. If a Participant is paid all or a portion of his Cash Account between interest crediting dates, no interest credit will apply for the
period from and after the immediately preceding interest crediting date through the date of payment, unless otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator. 

SECTION 6 

WITHDRAWALS OF ACCOUNTS WHILE A DIRECTOR 

(a) Unforeseen Emergency. The Plan Administrator shall pay all or a portion of a Participant’s
Account prior to the payment date applicable in Section 8 or 9 if the Participant is a Director and demonstrates that he has an Unforeseen Emergency; provided, however, that payment may not be made to the extent the Unforeseen Emergency is or
may be relieved (1) through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise or (2) by liquidation of the Participant’s assets, to the extent the liquidation of such assets would not itself cause severe financial hardship.
Distributions because of Unforeseen Emergency shall be limited to the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy the need (which may include any amounts necessary to pay any federal, state, or local income taxes or penalties reasonably contemplated to
result from the distribution). The Plan Administrator shall have the sole and absolute discretion to determine if an Unforeseen Emergency exists with respect to a Participant. 

  
 4 

 (b) Payment. Unforeseen Emergency payments shall be
made to a Participant only in accordance with such rules, policies, procedures, restrictions, and conditions as the Plan Administrator may from time to time adopt. Any determination of the amount to be distributed on account of an Unforeseen
Emergency shall be made by the Plan Administrator. A payment under this Plan Section shall be made in a lump sum in cash if distributed from the Cash Account or in the form of Company stock if distributed from the Stock Units Account to the
Participant and shall be charged against the Participant’s Account as of the day coinciding with or immediately preceding the date on which payment is made. 

SECTION 7 
 DEATH
BENEFITS 
 7.1 Death Prior to Commencement of Payment – Not Covered by BOLI. If a Participant dies
while a Director and the Participant is not covered by bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”), the Participant’s beneficiary, or in the event no beneficiary is named or survives the Participant, then the estate, shall receive the value of
the Participant’s Account valued as of the last day of the month in which the date of death occurred. Payment of this benefit shall be made as specified in Section 8.3 of the Plan. However, if a Participant is covered by BOLI as of the
date of death, this Section 8.1 will not apply and instead the death benefit will be determined under Section 8.2 of the Plan. 

7.2 Death Prior to Commencement of Payment – Covered by BOLI. Except as provided in Section 8.1, upon the
death of a Participant who dies while a Director and while covered by BOLI, the Participant’s beneficiary, or in the event no beneficiary is named or survives the Participant, then the estate, shall receive the full value of the
Participant’s Account as though he had served until Normal Retirement Age, elected the maximum deferral annually that would be eligible for Bank matching as outlined in Plan Section 5 and received the maximum allowable “matching
contribution” as outlined in Plan Section 5. The Bank may elect to provide this “Death Benefit” through BOLI on the participant’s life. In the event the Bank does procure life insurance on the Participant’s life, the
benefit under this section due from the Bank shall be reduced by the amount of proceeds paid directly to the beneficiary or the participant’s estate by the insurance carrier. For purposes of clarity, a payment may be made under Sections 8.1 or
8.2 of the Plan, but not under both sections. 
 7.3 Payment. Any benefit payable under this Section 8 shall be
paid in a lump sum in cash from the Cash Account and in the form of Company stock from the Stock Units Account to the Participant’s named beneficiary or estate within thirty (30) days of the Participant’s death. 

7.4 Death When No Longer a Director. Upon the death of a Participant who is no longer a Director, but prior to the
complete payment of his Account, the Participant’s named beneficiary, or in the event there is no named beneficiary, then the estate, shall receive the entire unpaid portion of the Participant’s Account in a lump sum within thirty
(30) days of the Participant’s death. 

  
 5 

 SECTION 8 

PAYMENT OF BENEFITS AFTER CESSATION OF DIRECTORSHIP 

8.1 Payment of Vested Account Upon Retirement. Upon the later of a Participant reaching Normal Retirement Age or
ceasing to serve as a Director, the Participant shall receive a distribution of his Account which shall be paid in one of the following forms as timely elected by the Participant in accordance with the terms of this Plan and Code Section 409A:
(a) a lump sum cash payment; or (b) substantially equal annual installments over a period of ten (10) years. Such payment will be made or will begin as soon as practicable, but no later than thirty (30) days, after the
Participant becomes entitled to payment under this Section. 
 8.2 Payment Upon Disability or Following a Change in
Control. In the event of the Participant’s Disability while the Participant serves as a Director, or the occurrence of a Change in Control (to the extent permitted under Code Section 409A), the Participant’s Account shall be paid
in one lump sum in cash from the Cash Account and in the form of Company stock from the Stock Units Account. Such payment shall be made as soon as practicable, but no later than thirty (30) days, following either such event. 

8.3 Vesting. A Participant’s Account shall be 100% vested at all times. 

SECTION 9 

ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN 

9.1 Operation of the Plan Administrator. The Bank shall be the Plan Administrator, unless it appoints a person,
committee or other organization as the Plan Administrator. If an organization is appointed to serve as the Plan Administrator, then the Plan Administrator may designate in writing a person who may act on behalf of the Plan Administrator. The Bank
shall have the right to remove the Plan Administrator at any time by notice in writing. The Plan Administrator may resign at any time by written notice or resignation to the Bank. Upon removal or resignation, or in the event of the dissolution of
the Plan Administrator, the Bank shall appoint a successor. 
 9.2 Duties of the Plan Administrator. 

(a) The Plan Administrator shall make all payments under the terms of the Plan. 

(b) The Plan Administrator shall from time to time establish rules, not contrary to the provisions of the Plan,
for the administration of the Plan and the transaction of its business. All elections and designations under the Plan by a Participant shall be made on forms prescribed by the Plan Administrator. The Plan Administrator shall have discretionary
authority to construe the terms of the Plan and shall determine all questions arising in the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan, including, but not limited to, those concerning eligibility for benefits and it shall not act so
as to discriminate in favor of any person. All determinations of the Plan Administrator shall be conclusive and binding on all Participants, subject to the provisions of the Plan and subject to applicable law. 

  
 6 

 (c)The statement of specific duties for a Plan Administrator
in this Plan Section is not in derogation of any other duties which a Plan Administrator has under the provisions of the Plan or under applicable law. 

9.3 Action by the Bank. Any action to be taken by the Bank shall be taken by resolution or written direction duly
adopted by its Board of Directors or appropriate governing body, as the case may be; provided, however, that by such resolution or written direction, the Board of Directors or appropriate governing body, as the case may be, may delegate to any
officer or other appropriate person of the Bank the authority to take any such actions as may be specified in such resolution or written direction. 

SECTION 10 
 CLAIM

such an extension of time is required, written notice of the extension shall be furnished to the claimant prior to the termination of the initial 90-day period. In no event shall the extension exceed a period
of ninety (90) days from the end of such initial period. Any extension notice shall indicate the special circumstances requiring the extension of time, the date by which the Plan Administrator expects to render the final decision, the standards

copies of, all documents, records, and other information relevant to the claim; 
 (c) submit written
comments, documents, records, and other information relating to the denied claim to the Plan Administrator; and

10.4 Application for Review. If a claimant wishes a review of the decision denying his claim to benefits under the
Plan, the claimant must submit the written application to the Plan Administrator within sixty (60) days after receiving written notice of the denial. 

10.5 Hearing. Upon receiving a written application for review pursuant to Section 11.4, the Plan Administrator may
schedule a hearing for purposes of reviewing the claimant’s claim, which hearing shall take place not more than thirty (30) days from the date on which the Plan Administrator received such written application for review. 

10.6 Notice of Hearing. At least ten (10) days prior to the scheduled hearing, the claimant and his representative
designated in writing by him, if any, shall receive written notice of the date, time, and place of such scheduled hearing. The claimant or his representative, if any, may request that the hearing be rescheduled, for his convenience, on another
reasonable date or at another reasonable time or place. 
 10.7 Counsel. All claimants requesting a review of the
decision denying their claim for benefits may employ counsel for purposes of the hearing. 
 10.8 Decision on Review.
No later than sixty (60) days following the receipt of the written application for review, the Plan Administrator shall submit its decision on the review in writing to the claimant involved and to his representative, if any, unless the Plan
Administrator determines that special circumstances (such as the need to hold a hearing) require an extension of time, to a day no later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of receipt of the written application for review. If the
Plan Administrator determines that the extension of time is required, the Plan Administrator shall furnish to the claimant written notice of the extension before the expiration of the initial sixty (60) day period. The extension notice shall
indicate the special circumstances requiring an extension of time and the date by which the Plan Administrator expects to render its decision on review. In the case of a decision adverse to the claimant, the Plan Administrator shall provide to the
claimant written notice of the denial which shall include: 
 (a) the specific reasons for the decision; 

(b) specific references to the pertinent provisions of the Plan on which the decision is based;

debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of any person, nor shall it be subject to attachment or legal process for, or against, such person, and the same shall not be recognized under the Plan, except to such extent as may be required by
law. 
 SECTION 12 

LIMITATION OF RIGHTS 

Membership in the Plan shall not give any Director any right or claim except to the extent that such right is specifically
fixed under the terms of the Plan. The adoption of the Plan by the Bank shall not be construed to give any Participant a right to continue as a Director. 

SECTION 13 
 AMENDMENT
TO OR TERMINATION OF THE PLAN 
 13.1. Amendment. The Bank or any successor thereto reserves the right by
action of its Board of Directors or its delegate at any time to modify or amend the Plan. No such modifications or amendments shall have the effect of retroactively changing or depriving Participants of benefits already accrued under the Plan. 

13.2 Termination. Subject to the requirements of Code Section 409A, in the event of complete termination of the
Plan, the Plan shall cease to operate and the Bank shall pay out to the Participant his benefit as if the Participant had terminated service as of the effective date of the complete termination. Such complete termination of the Plan shall occur only
under the following circumstances and conditions: 
 (a) The Board of Directors may terminate the Plan within
12 months of a corporate dissolution taxed under Code Section 331, or with approval of a bankruptcy court pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §503(b)(1)(A), provided that the amounts deferred under the Plan are included in the Participant’s gross
income in the latest of (i) the calendar year in which the Plan terminates; (ii) the calendar year in which the amount is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture; or (iii) the first calendar year in which the payment is
administratively practicable. 
 (b) The Board of Directors may terminate the Plan by irrevocable action
within the 30 days preceding a Change in Control (but not following a Change in 

  
 9 

 
Control), provided that the Plan shall only be treated as terminated if all substantially similar arrangements sponsored by the Company are terminated so that the Participant and all participants
under substantially similar arrangements are required to receive all amounts of compensation deferred under the terminated arrangements within 12 months of the date of the termination of the arrangements. For these purposes, “Change in
Control” shall be defined in accordance with the Treasury Regulations under Code Section 409A. 

(c) The Board of Directors may terminate the Plan provided that (i) the termination and liquidation does
not occur proximate to a downturn in the financial health of the Company, (ii) all arrangements sponsored by the Company that would be aggregated with this Plan under Treasury Regulations
Section 1.409A-1(c) if the Participant covered by this Plan was also covered by any of those other arrangements are also terminated; (iii) no payments other than payments that would be payable under
the terms of the arrangement if the termination had not occurred are made within 12 months of the termination of the arrangement; (iv) all payments are made within 24 months of the termination of the arrangements; and (v) the Company does
not adopt a new arrangement that would be aggregated with any terminated arrangement under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(c) if the Participant participated in both arrangements, at any time within
three years following the date of termination of the arrangement. 
 SECTION 14 

MISCELLANEOUS 

14.1 Unfunded Plan. All payments provided under the Plan shall be paid from the general assets of the Bank or its
Affiliate(s), as applicable, and no separate fund shall be established to secure payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Bank may establish a grantor trust to assist it and its Affiliates in funding their obligations under the Plan, and any
payments made to a Participant from such trust shall relieve the Bank and Affiliates, as applicable, from any further obligations under the Plan only to the extent of such payment. 

14.2 Withholding. The Bank shall withhold from any benefits payable under the Plan all federal, state and local income
taxes or other taxes (if any) required to be withheld pursuant to applicable law. 
 14.3 Governing Law. The Plan
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Alabama. 
 14.4 Payment of Employment and
Code Section 409A Taxes. Any distribution under this Plan shall be reduced by the amount of any taxes required to be withheld from such distribution. This Plan shall permit the acceleration of the time or schedule of a payment
to pay employment related taxes as permitted under Treasury regulation Section 1.409A-3(j) or to pay any taxes that may become due at any time that the arrangement fails to meet the requirements of Code
Section 409A and the regulations and other guidance promulgated thereunder. In the latter case, such payments shall not exceed the amount required to be included in income as the result of the failure to comply with the requirements of Code
Section 409A. 
 14.5 Section 409A of the Code Requirements. 

  
 10 

 14.5.1 All references to Retirement, termination of service
or “ceasing to service as a Director” in the Plan shall require a “Separation from Service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A. No Separation from Service shall be deemed to occur due to military leave, sick leave or
other bona fide leave of absence if the period of such leave does not exceed six (6) months or, if longer, so long as the Participant’s right to reemployment is provided by law or contract. If the leave exceeds six (6) months and the
Participant’s right to reemployment is not provided by law or by contract, then the Participant shall have a Separation from Service on the first date immediately following such six-month period. 

Whether a Separation from Service has occurred is determined based on whether the facts and circumstances indicate that the
Bank and the Participant reasonably anticipated that no further services would be performed after a certain date or that the level of bona fide services the employee would perform after such date (whether as an employee or as an independent
contractor) would permanently decrease to an amount less than 50% of the average level of bona fide services performed over the immediately preceding 36 months (or such lesser period of time in which the Participant performed services for the Bank).
The determination of whether a Participant has had a Separation from Service shall be made by applying the presumptions set forth in the Treasury Regulations under Code Section 409A. 

14.5.2 A Participant’s Account Balance shall be distributed to the Participant in accordance with the
terms of the Plan, provided, however that if a Participant is a “specified employee” (i.e., a “key employee” of a publicly traded company within the meaning of Code Section 409A and the final regulations issued thereunder)
and payment of the Account Balance is triggered due to the Participant’s Separation from Service (other than due to death), then solely to the extent necessary to avoid penalties under Code Section 409A, no payment shall be made during the
first six (6) months following the Participant’s Separation from Service. Rather, any payment which would otherwise be paid to the Participant during such period shall be accumulated and paid to the Participant in a lump sum on the first
day of the seventh month following such Separation from Service. All subsequent payments of the Participant’s Account Balance shall be paid in the manner specified in the Plan. 

14.6 12 U.S.C. § 1828(k). Any payments made to the Participant pursuant to this Plan or otherwise
are subject to and conditioned upon compliance with 12 U.S.C. § 1828(k) and 12 C.F.R. Part 359 Golden Parachute and Indemnification Payments or any other rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
