(a)           The Company may terminate the Executive's employment during the Employment Period, and such termination shall be deemed to have occurred with "Cause", only if:

 

(i)              The Board of Directors of the Company, by majority vote of their entire membership, determine that the Executive should be discharged because of personal dishonesty, incompetence, willful misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty involving
personal profit, intentional failure to perform stated duties, willful violation of any law, rule or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses) or final cease and desist order, or any material breach of this Agreement; and

 

(ii)              at least forty-five (45) days prior to the votes contemplated by section 1 l(a)(i), the Company has provided the Executive with notice of its intent to discharge the Executive for Cause, detailing with particularity the facts
and circumstances which are alleged to constitute Cause (the "Notice of Intent to Discharge"); and

 

(iii)              after the giving of the Notice of Intent to Discharge and before the taking of the votes contemplated by section 11(a)(i), the Executive (together with his legal counsel, if he so desires) is afforded a reasonable opportunity
to make both written and oral presentations before the Board of Directors of the Company for the purpose of refuting the alleged grounds for Cause for his discharge; and

 

(iv)              after the votes contemplated by section 11(a)(i), the Company have furnished to the Executive a notice of termination which shall specify the effective date of his termination of employment (which shall in no event be earlier
than the date on which such notice is deemed given) and include a copy of a resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company, certified by its corporate secretary and signed by each member of the Board of Directors voting in favor of adoption of the resolution(s), authorizing the termination of the Executive's employment with Cause and stating with particularity the facts and circumstances found to constitute Cause for his discharge (the "Final Discharge Notice").

 

(b)           If the Executive is discharged during the Employment Period with Cause, the Company shall pay and provide to him (or, in the event of his death, to his estate, his surviving beneficiaries and his dependents) the Standard Termination Entitlements only,
within the timeframes contained in section 9. Following the giving of a Notice of Intent to Discharge, the Company shall temporarily suspend the Executive's duties and authority and, in such event, shall also suspend the payment of salary and other cash compensation, but not the Executive's participation in retirement, insurance and other employee benefit plans. If, after the giving of a Notice of Intent to Discharge, the Executive is not discharged, or is discharged without Cause, payments of salary and cash
compensation shall resume in accordance with this Agreement, and all payments withheld during the period of suspension shall be promptly restored. If the Executive is discharged with Cause in accordance with this Section 11, all payments withheld during the period of suspension shall be deemed forfeited and shall not be included in the Standard Termination Entitlements. If the Company does not give a Final Discharge Notice to the Executive within ninety (90) days after giving a Notice of Intent to Discharge,
the Notice of Intent to Discharge shall be deemed withdrawn and any future action to discharge the Executive with Cause shall require the giving of a new Notice of Intent to Discharge.

  

  

  

Section 12.                      Discharge without Cause.

The Company may discharge the Executive at any time during the Employment Period and, unless such discharge constitutes a discharge with Cause:

(a)           The Company shall pay and deliver to the Executive (or in the event of his death before payment, to his estate and surviving dependents and beneficiaries, as applicable) the Standard Termination Entitlements within the timeframes contained in section
9.

 

(b)           During the Remaining Unexpired Employment Period, the Company shall provide for the Executive and his dependents continued group life, health (including hospitalization, medical and major medical), dental, accident and long-term disability insurance
benefits on substantially the same terms and conditions (including any required premium-sharing arrangements, co-payments and deductibles) in effect for similarly situated employees of the Company. The coverage provided under this section 12(b) may, at the election of the Company, be secondary to the coverage provided as part of the Standard Termination Entitlements and to any employer-paid coverage provided by a subsequent employer or through Medicare, with the result that benefits under the other coverages
will offset the coverage required by this section 12(b).

 

(c)           The Company shall make a lump sum payment to the Executive (or, in the event of his death before payment, to his estate), in an amount equal to the value of the salary, bonus, short-term and long-term cash compensation that the Executive received in
the calendar year preceding that in which the termination of employment with the Company occurs divided by twelve (12) and then multiplied by the number of months remaining in the Remaining Unexpired Employment Period to compensate the Executive for the payments the Executive would have received during the Remaining Unexpired Employment Period. Such lump sum shall be paid in lieu of all other payments of salary, bonus, short-term and long-term cash compensation provided for under this Agreement in respect of
the period following any such termination. Such payment shall be made (without discounting for early payment) within thirty (30) days following the Executive’s termination of employment.

 

The payments and benefits described in sections 12(b) and 12(c) are referred to in this Agreement as the "Additional Termination Entitlements".  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive shall not receive any severance hereunder (above the Standard Entitlements) unless within 30 days after terminating employment,
the Executive has signed a general release of claims in a form generally acceptable to the Company; provided that the Company has sent such form to the Executive within 10 business days after termination of his employment.

 

Section 13.                      Resignation.

 

(a)           The Executive may resign from his employment with the Company at any time. A resignation under this section 13 shall be effected by notice of resignation given by the Executive to the Company and shall take effect on the later of the effective date
of termination specified in such notice or the date on which the notice of termination is deemed given by the Executive. The Executive's resignation of any of the positions within the Bank or the Company to which he has been assigned shall be deemed a resignation from all such positions.

 

(b)           The Executive's resignation shall be deemed to be for "Good Reason" if the effective date of resignation occurs within ninety (90) days after any of the following; provided that the Executive shall have given notice
of such material adverse effect to the Company, and the Company has not fully cured such failure within thirty (30) days after such notice is deemed given:

  

  

  

 

(i)             any material change in the Executive's duties, functions, and responsibilities with the Company;

 

(ii)             any material reduction of the Executive's rate of base salary in effect from time to time, or any failure (other than due to reasonable administrative error that is cured promptly upon notice) to pay any portion of the Executive's compensation
as and when due;

 

(iii)             any material breach by the Company of any material term, condition or covenant contained in this Agreement; or

 

(iv)             a change in the Executive's principal place of employment to a place that is not the principal executive office of the Company, or a relocation of the Company's principal executive office to a location that is both more than one-hundred
(100) miles away from the Executive's principal residence and more than one-hundred (100) miles away from the location of the Company's principal executive office on the date of this Agreement.

 

In all other cases, a resignation by the Executive shall be deemed to be without Good Reason.

 

(c)           In the event of the Executive's resignation before the expiration of the Employment Period, the Company shall pay and deliver the Standard Termination Entitlements within the timeframes contained in section 9. In addition, if the Executive's resignation
is deemed to be a resignation with Good Reason, the Company shall also pay and deliver the Additional Termination Entitlements within the timeframes contained in section 12.

 

Section 14.                      Terms and Conditions of the Additional Termination Entitlements.

 

The Company and the Executive hereby stipulate that the damages which may be incurred by the Executive following any termination of employment are not capable of accurate measurement as of the date first above written and that the Additional Termination Entitlements constitute reasonable damages under the circumstances
and shall be payable without any requirement of proof of actual damage and without regard to the Executive's efforts, if any, to mitigate damages. The Company and the Executive further agree that the Company may condition the payment and delivery of the Additional Termination Entitlements on (i) the receipt of the Executive's resignation from any and all positions which he holds as an officer, director or committee member with respect to the Company, the Bank or any subsidiary or affiliate of either of them and
(ii) a release of the Company and its officers, directors, shareholders, subsidiaries and affiliates, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, of any liability to the Executive, whether for compensation or damages, in connection with his employment with the Company and the termination of such employment except for the Standard Termination Entitlements and the Additional Termination Entitlements.

 

Section 15.                      Termination Upon or Following a Change of Control.

 

(a)           A "Change of Control" shall be deemed to have occurred upon the happening of any of the following events:

 

  

  

  

 

(i)             the consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Company with one (1) or more other persons, other than a transaction following which:

 

(A)             at least 51% of the equity ownership interests of the entity resulting from such transaction are beneficially owned (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"))
in substantially the same relative proportions by persons who, immediately prior to such transaction, beneficially owned (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) at least 51% of the outstanding equity ownership interests in the Company; and

 

(B)             at least 51% of the securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the entity resulting from such transaction are beneficially owned (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) in substantially
the same relative proportions by persons who, immediately prior to such transaction, beneficially owned (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) at least 51% of the securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the Company;

 

(ii)             the acquisition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 25% or more of the outstanding securities of the Company entitled
to vote generally in the election of directors by any person or by any persons acting in concert;

 

(iii)             a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company;

 

(iv)             the occurrence of any event if, immediately following such event, at least 50% of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company do not belong to any of the following groups:

 

(A)             individuals who were members of the Board of Directors of the Company on the date of this Agreement; or

 

(B)             individuals who first became members of the Board of Directors of the Company after the date of this Agreement either:

 

(1)           upon election to serve as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company by affirmative vote of three-quarters of the members of such board, or of a nominating committee thereof, in office at the time of such first election; or

 

(2)           upon election by the shareholders of the Board of Directors of the Company to serve as a member of such board, but only if nominated for election by affirmative vote of three-quarters of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company, or
of a nominating committee thereof, in office at the time of such first nomination;

 

provided, however, that such individual's election or nomination did not result from an actual or threatened election contest or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents other than by or on behalf of the Board of Directors of the Company;
provided, however, that this section 15(a)(iv) shall only apply if the Company is not majority owned by Lake Shore, MHC; or

  

  

  

 

(v)             any event which would be described in section 15(a)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) if the term "Bank were substituted for the term "Company" therein.

 

In no event, however, shall a Change of Control be deemed to have occurred as a result of (i) any acquisition of securities or assets of the Company, the Bank, or a subsidiary of either of them, by the Company, the Bank, or any subsidiary of either of them, or by any employee benefit plan maintained by any of them or
(ii) the conversion of Lake Shore, MHC to a stock form company and the issuance of additional shares of the Company in connection therewith. For purposes of this section 15(a), the term "person" shall have the meaning assigned to it under Sections 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act.

 

(b)           For purposes of this Agreement, a "Pending Change of Control" shall mean: (i) the signing of a definitive agreement for a transaction which, if consummated, would result in a Change of Control; (ii) the commencement of a tender offer which, if successful,
would result in a Change of Control; or (iii) the circulation of a proxy statement seeking proxies in opposition to management in an election contest which, if successful, would result in a Change of Control.

 

(c)           Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for purposes of computing the Additional Termination Entitlements due upon a termination of employment that occurs, or is deemed to have occurred, after a Change of Control, the Remaining Unexpired
Employment Period shall be deemed to be three (3) full years.

 

Section 16.                      Covenant Not To Compete.

 

The Executive hereby covenants and agrees that, in the event of his termination of employment with the Company prior to the expiration of the Employment Period, for a period of three (3) years following the date of his termination of employment with the Company, he shall not, without the written consent of the Company,
become an officer, employee, consultant, director or trustee of any savings bank, savings and loan association, savings and loan holding company, bank or bank holding company, any other entity engaged in the business of accepting deposits or making loans or any direct or indirect subsidiary or affiliate of any such entity, that entails working within the State of New York or any city or county in any other state in which the Company or the Bank maintains an office; provided, however, that this section 16 shall
not apply if the Executive is entitled to the Additional Termination Entitlements due to a Change of Control or after a Pending Change of Control.

 

Section 17.                      Confidentiality.

 

Unless he obtains the prior written consent of the Company, the Executive shall keep confidential and shall refrain from using for the benefit of himself, or any person or entity other than the Company or any entity which is a subsidiary of the Company or of which the Company is a subsidiary, any material document or
information obtained from the Company, or from its parent or subsidiaries, in the course of his employment with any of them concerning their properties, operations or business (unless such document or information is readily ascertainable from public or published information or trade sources or has otherwise been made available to the public through no fault of his own) until the same ceases to be material (or becomes so ascertainable or available); provided, however, that nothing in this section 17 shall prevent
the Executive, with or without the Company's consent, from participating in or disclosing documents or information in connection with any judicial or administrative investigation, inquiry or proceeding to the extent that such participation or disclosure is required under applicable law.

 

Section 18.                      Solicitation.

 

The Executive hereby covenants and agrees that, for a period of three (3) years following his termination of employment with the Company or the Bank, he shall not, without the written consent of the Company, either directly or indirectly:

  

  

  

 

(a)           solicit, offer employment to, or take any other action intended, or that a reasonable person acting in like circumstances would expect, to have the effect of causing any officer or employee of the Company, the Bank or any of their respective subsidiaries
or affiliates to terminate his or her employment and accept employment or become affiliated with, or provide services for compensation in any capacity whatsoever to, any savings bank, savings and loan association, bank, bank holding company, savings and loan holding company, or other institution engaged in the business of accepting deposits, making loans or doing business within the counties specified in section 16;

 

(b)           provide any information, advice or recommendation with respect to any such officer or employee of any savings bank, savings and loan association, bank, bank holding company, savings and loan holding company, or other institution engaged in the business
of accepting deposits, making loans or doing business within the counties specified in section 16; that is intended, or that a reasonable person acting in like circumstances would expect, to have the effect of causing any officer or employee of the Company, the Bank, or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates to terminate his employment and accept employment or become affiliated with, or provide services for compensation in any capacity whatsoever to, any savings bank, savings and loan association,
bank, bank holding company, savings and loan holding company, or other institution engaged in the business of accepting deposits, making loans or doing business within the counties specified in section 16;

 

(c)           solicit, provide any information, advice or recommendation or take any other action intended, or that a reasonable person acting in like circumstances would expect, to have the effect of causing any customer of the Company or the Bank to terminate an
existing business or commercial relationship with the Company or the Bank;

 

provided however, that this section 18 shall not apply if the Executive is entitled to the Additional Termination Entitlements due to a Change of Control or after a Pending Change of Control.

 

Section 19.                      No Effect on Employee Benefit Plans or Programs.

 

The termination of the Executive's employment during the term of this Agreement or thereafter, whether by the Company or by the Executive, shall have no effect on the rights and obligations of the parties hereto under the Company's or the Bank's qualified or non-qualified retirement, pension, savings, thrift, profit-sharing
or stock bonus plans, group life, health (including hospitalization, medical and major medical), dental, accident and long term disability insurance plans or such other employee benefit plans or programs, or compensation plans or programs, as may be maintained by, or cover employees of, the Company or the Bank from time to time; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to duplicate any compensation or benefits provided under any agreement, plan or program covering the Executive to which
the Company is a pasty and any duplicative amount payable under any such agreement, plan or program shall be applied as an offset to reduce the amounts otherwise payable hereunder.

  

  

  

Section 20.                      Successors and Assigns.

 

This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Executive, his legal representatives and testate or intestate distributees, and the Company and their respective successors and assigns, including any successor by merger or consolidation or a statutory receiver or any other person or firm or corporation
to which all or substantially all of the assets and business of the Company may be sold or otherwise transferred. Failure of the Company to obtain from any successor its express written assumption of the Company's obligations hereunder at least sixty (60) days in advance of the scheduled effective date of any such succession shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement.

 

Section 21.                      Notices.

 

Any communication required or permitted to be given under this Agreement, including any notice, direction, designation, consent, instruction, objection or waiver, shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given at such time as it is delivered personally, or five (5) days after mailing if mailed, postage prepaid,

Section 22.                      Waiver.

 

Failure to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms, covenants or conditions hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such term, covenant, or condition. A waiver of any provision of this Agreement must be made in writing, designated as a waiver, and signed by the party against whom its enforcement is sought.
Any waiver or relinquishment of any right or power hereunder at any one (I) or more times shall not be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of such right or power at any other time or times.

The headings of sections in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not intended to qualify the meaning of any section. Any reference to a section number shall refer to a section of this Agreement, unless otherwise stated.

 

Section 26.                      Entire Agreement; Modifications.

 

This instrument contains the entire agreement of the parties relating to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes in its entirety any and all prior agreements, understandings or representations relating to the subject matter hereof. No modifications of this Agreement shall be valid unless made in writing and signed
by the parties hereto. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be construed and administered in such manner as shall be necessary to effect compliance with Section 409A and shall be subject to amendment in the future, in such manner as the Company and the Bank may deem necessary or appropriate to effect such compliance; provided that any such amendment shall preserve for the Executive the benefit originally afforded pursuant to this Agreement.

 

Section 27.                      Non-duplication.

 

In the event that the Executive shall perform services for the Bank or any other direct or indirect subsidiary or affiliate of the Company or the Bank, any compensation or benefits provided to the Executive by such other employer shall be applied to offset the obligations of the Company hereunder, it being intended that
this Agreement set forth the aggregate compensation and benefits payable to the Executive for all services to the Company and all of its respective direct or indirect subsidiaries and affiliates.

 

Section 28.                      Survival.

 

The provisions of sections 6, 16, 17, 18 and 19 shall survive the expiration of the Employment Period or termination of the Agreement.

The Company shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Executive against reasonable costs, including legal fees, incurred by him in connection with or arising out of any action, suit or proceeding in which he may be involved, as a result of his efforts, in good faith, to defend or enforce the terms of this Agreement;
provided, however, that Executive shall have substantially prevailed on the merits pursuant to a judgment, decree or order of a court of competent jurisdiction or of an arbitrator in an arbitration proceeding, provided, however, that any indemnification provided under this Agreement shall be subject to any applicable OTS indemnification rules. The determination whether the Executive shall have substantially prevailed on the merits and is therefore entitled to such indemnification, shall be made by the court or
arbitrator, as applicable. In the event of a settlement pursuant to a settlement agreement, any indemnification payment under this section 29 shall be made only after a determination by the members of the Board (other than the Executive and any other member of the Board to which the Executive is related by blood or marriage) that the Executive has acted in good faith and that such indemnification payment is in the best interests of the Company.

 

Section 30.                      Required Regulatory Provisions

 

The following provisions are included for the purposes of complying with various laws, rules and regulations applicable to the Company:

 

(a)           Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, in no event shall the aggregate amount of compensation payable to the Executive under section 12(b) hereof exceed three (3) times the Executive's average annual compensation (within the meaning
of OTS Examination Handbook, Thrift Activities § 310 or any successor thereto) for the last five (5) consecutive calendar years to end prior to his termination of employment with the Company (or for his entire period of employment with the Company if less than five (5) calendar years). The compensation payable to the Executive hereunder shall be further reduced (but not below zero) if such reduction

 

  

  

  

 

would avoid the assessment of excise taxes on excess parachute payments (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code).

 

(b)           Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, any payments to the Executive by the Company, whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, are subject to and conditioned upon their compliance with Section 18(k) of the Federal Deposit
Insurance Act ("FDI Act"), 12 U.S.C. 5 1828(k), and any regulations promulgated thereunder, including FDIC regulation 12 C.F.R. Part 359, Golden Parachute and Indemnification Payments.

 

(c)           Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, the Company’s Board of Directors may terminate the Executive’s employment at any time, but any termination by the Company’s Board of Directors other than termination for Cause,
shall not prejudice the Executive’s right to compensation or other benefits under this Agreement. The Executive shall have no right to receive compensation or other benefits for any period after termination for Cause.

 

(d)           Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, if the Executive is suspended from office and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the conduct of the affairs of the Company pursuant to a notice served under Section 8(e)(3) or 8(g)(l)
of the FDI Act, 12 U.S.C. §1818(e)(3) or 1818(g)(l), the Company's obligations under this Agreement shall be suspended as of the date of service of such notice, unless stayed by appropriate proceedings. If the charges in such notice are dismissed, the Company, in its discretion, may (i) pay to the Executive all or part of the compensation withheld while the Company's obligations hereunder were suspended and (ii) reinstate, in whole or in part, any of the obligations which were suspended.

 

(e)           Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, if the Executive is removed and/or permanently prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Company's affairs by an order issued under Section 8(e)(4) or 8(g)(l) of the FDI Act, 12 U.S.C.
§1818(e)(4) or (g)(l), all prospective obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall terminate as of the effective date of the order, but vested rights and obligations of the Company and the Executive shall not be affected.

 

(f)           Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, if the Company is in default (within the meaning of Section 3(x)(1) of the FDI Act, 12 U.S.C. § 1813(x)(1), all prospective obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall terminate
as of the date of default, but vested rights and obligations of the Company and the Executive shall not be affected.

 

(g)           Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, all prospective obligations of the Company hereunder shall be terminated, except to the extent that a continuation of this Agreement is necessary for the continued operation of the Company:
(i) by the Director of the OTS or his designee or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), at the time the FDIC enters into an agreement to provide assistance to or on behalf of the Company under the authority contained in Section 13(c) of the FDI Act, 12 U.S.C. §1823(c); or (ii) by the Director of the OTS or his designee at the time such Director or designee approves a supervisory merger to resolve problems related to the operation of the Company or when the Company is determined by such Director
to be in an unsafe or unsound condition. The vested rights and obligations of the parties shall not be affected.

 

If and to the extent that any of the foregoing provisions shall cease to be required or by applicable law, rule or regulation, the same shall become inoperative as though eliminated by formal amendment of this Agreement.

 

Section 31.                      Guarantee; Non-Duplication.

  

  

  

 

The Company hereby agrees to guarantee the payment by the Bank of any benefits and compensation to which the Executive is or may be entitled to under the terms and conditions of the employment agreement of even date herewith between the Bank and the Executive. In the event that the Executive shall perform services for the
Bank or any other direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company, any compensation or benefits provided to the Executive by such other employer shall be applied to offset the obligations of the Company hereunder, it being intended that this Agreement set forth the aggregate compensation and benefits payable to the Executive for all services to the Company and all of its direct or indirect subsidiaries.

 

Section 32.                      Payments to Specified Employees.

 

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if at the time of Executive’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A and Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(h)), the Executive is a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Section 409A and Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(i)(1)),
the Bank will not pay or provide any “Specified Benefits” (as defined herein) until after the end of the sixth calendar month beginning after the Executive’s separation from service (the “409A Suspension Period”); provided, however, that to the extent the 409A Suspension Period is imposed as a result of a Change of Control as defined in section 15(a), the resulting Specified Benefits shall be paid into a rabbi trust for the benefit of the Executive as if the 409A Suspension Period
was not imposed with such amounts then being distributed to the Executive within fourteen (14) days after the 409A Suspension Period ends. For purposes of this Agreement, “Specified Benefits” are any amounts or benefits that would be subject to taxation under Section 409A if the Bank or the Company were to pay them, pursuant to this Agreement, on account of the Executive’s separation from service (and without the delay contemplated by this paragraph).

 

Section 33.                      Involuntary Termination Payments to Employees (Safe Harbor).

 

To the extent allowable under Section 409A, in the event a payment is made to an employee upon an involuntary termination of employment, as deemed pursuant to this Agreement, such payment will not be subject to Section 409A provided that such payment does not exceed two (2) times the lesser of (i) the sum of the Executive's
annualized compensation based on the taxable year immediately preceding the year in which termination of employment occurs or (ii) the maximum amount that may be taken into account under a qualified plan pursuant to Section 401(a)(17) of the Code for the year in which the Executive terminates service (the "Safe Harbor Amount"). However, if such payment exceeds the Safe Harbor Amount, only the amount in excess of the Safe Harbor Amount will be subject to Section 409A. In addition, if such Executive is considered
a specified employee, such payment in excess of the Safe Harbor Amount will have its timing delayed and will be subject to the 409A Suspension Period as provided in section 32 of this Agreement.

 

  

  

  

In Witness Whereof the Company has caused this Agreement to be executed and the Executive has hereunto set his hand, all as of the day and year first above written.
