In the event of Grantee’s termination of employment prior to the Applicable Vesting Date for any reason other than as set
forth in Sections 3.2 through 3.3, Shares subject to this Award that remain subject to transfer restrictions as of the date of
such termination shall immediately and automatically be forfeited, surrendered and cancelled without consideration and without
any further action by Grantee.

 

3.2            Death

3.3            Change
in Control. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, unvested Shares subject to this Award shall not be subject
to accelerated vesting and/or settlement or cash out upon a Change in Control, except to the extent that the definitive agreement
evidencing a Change in Control provides for such accelerated vesting and/or settlement or cash out of unvested Shares granted under
the Plan upon the Change in Control. If Grantee’s employment is terminated by the Company without Just Cause (as defined
in Section 10(c) of the Plan) or by Grantee with Good Reason, in each case within the twenty-four (24) month period following
a Change in Control, all unvested Shares subject to this Award shall immediately vest upon the termination of Grantee’s employment.
 “Good Reason” shall be deemed to exist at the time that any of the following events occurs without Grantee’s

employment with the Company; (2) a material reduction in Grantee’s base salary; (3) a material reduction in Grantee’s

days after the Company’s receipt of such notice. If Grantee initiates termination with Good Reason, the actual termination
must occur within sixty (60) days after the date of the notice of termination. Grantee’s failure to give timely notice of
termination with respect to the occurrence of a specific event that would otherwise constitute Good Reason will not constitute
a waiver of Grantee’s right to give notice of any new subsequent event that would constitute Good Reason that occurs after
such prior event (regardless of whether the new subsequent event is of the same or different nature as the preceding event).

or other guidance thereunder, or any agreement or arrangement with or restriction imposed by, the United States Department of the
Treasury, any bank regulatory agency or any other governmental agency (a “Governmental Restriction”),
in each case, as determined by Committee in its sole discretion, then the Committee may unilaterally modify the terms of this Award

of the Code (including the Treasury regulations and other published guidance relating thereto) so as not to subject Grantee to
payment of any additional tax, penalty or interest imposed under Section 409A of the Code. The provisions of this Agreement
shall be construed and interpreted to avoid the imputation of any such additional tax, penalty or interest under Section 409A
of the Code, yet preserve (to the nearest extent reasonably possible) the intended benefit payable to Grantee. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent that any payment (including Share delivery) is to be made upon a separation

Section 409A of the Code, such payment shall instead be made on the first business day after the date that is six (6) months
following such separation from service (or upon Grantee’s death, if earlier).

 

16.            Entire
Agreement. This Agreement and the Plan contain the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto with
respect to the subject matter contained herein and supersede all prior communications, representations and negotiations with respect
