ARTICLE 2

DISTRIBUTIONS DURING LIFETIME

2.1 Normal Retirement Benefit. Upon Separation from Service for any reason other than Termination for Cause on or after Normal Retirement Age, or upon Separation from Service due to Disability prior to Normal Retirement Age, the Bank shall distribute to the Executive the benefit described in this Section 2.1 in lieu of any other benefit under this Article.

2.1.1 Amount of Benefit. The annual benefit under this Section 2.1 is the amount set forth in Schedule A, attached hereto. The annual benefit shall be payable for a period of twenty (20) years following the Executive’s Normal Retirement Date or Separation from Service due to Disability prior to Normal Retirement Age. The annual benefit amount shall be subject to a simple cost of living adjustment (COLA) of three percent (3%) per year from the date benefits commence until the complete distribution of all benefit payments. If the Executive separates from service on a date following his Normal Retirement Age, his annual benefit shall equal the benefit list on Schedule A at his Normal Retirement Age increased annually, using the discount rate specified in Code Section 1274 (in effect on the date of termination) with annual payments subject to the 3% COLA.

2.1.2 Distribution of Benefit. The Bank shall distribute the benefit under this Section 2.1 to the Executive in two hundred and forty (240) consecutive monthly installments, commencing on the first day of the month following Separation from Service or, in the event of Separation from Service due to Disability, commencing on the first day of the month following the Executive’s attainment of Normal Retirement Age. Alternatively, the Executive may elect, subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and Section 2.6, to receive a lump sum payment that is actuarially equivalent to the Normal Retirement benefit amount described in Section 2.1.1 (calculated as of the date of Separation from Service and using the discount rate specified in Code Section 1274 in effect on the date of termination). Such payment shall be made to the Executive within sixty (60) days after his Separation from Service.

2.2 Early Retirement Benefit. Upon Separation from Service for any reason other than Termination for Cause or Disability prior to Normal Retirement Age, the Bank shall distribute to the Executive the benefit described in this Section 2.2 in lieu of any other benefit under this Article.

 

3

2.2.1 Amount of Benefit. The annual benefit under this Section 2.2 is the Accrued Benefit as of the date of the Executive’s Separation from Service.

2.2.2 Distribution of Benefit. The Bank shall distribute the Accrued Benefit under this Section 2.2 to the Executive in a lump sum payment. Such payment shall be made to the Executive within sixty (60) days after his Separation from Service.

2.3 Change in Control Benefit. Upon the Executive’s Separation from Service (other than Termination for Cause) following a Change in Control, the Executive shall be entitled to the benefit described in this Section 2.3 in lieu of any other benefit under this Article.

2.3.1 Amount of Benefit. The benefit under this Section 2.3 is the Normal Retirement Benefit amount described in Section 2.1.1.

2.3.2 Distribution of Benefit. The Bank shall distribute the benefit to the Executive in two hundred and forty (240) consecutive equal monthly installments commencing the first day of the month following the Executive’s attainment of Normal Retirement Age. Alternatively, the Executive may elect, subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and Section 2.6, to receive a lump sum payment that is actuarially equivalent to the Normal Retirement benefit amount described in Section 2.1.1 (calculated as of the date of Separation from Service and using the discount rate specified in Code Section 1274 in effect on the date of termination). Such payment shall be made to the Executive within sixty (60) days after his Separation from Service.

2.4 Restriction on Timing of Distributions. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if the Executive is considered a Specified Employee at Separation from Service as determined by the Bank in accordance with Section 409A of the Code, benefit distributions made upon Separation from Service may not commence earlier than six (6) months after the date of such Separation from Service. Therefore, in the event this Section 2.4 is applicable to the Executive, any distribution which would otherwise be paid to the Executive within the first six months following Separation from Service shall be accumulated and paid to the Executive in a lump sum (together with interest thereon at the then-prevailing prime rate) on the first day of the seventh month following the Separation from Service. All subsequent distributions shall be paid in the manner specified under this Article 2 of the Plan with respect to the applicable benefit.

2.5 Distributions Upon Income Inclusion Under Section 409A of the Code. Upon the inclusion of any amount into the Executive’s income as a result of the failure of this Agreement to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, to the extent such tax liability can be covered by the amount which the Bank has accrued with respect to the obligations described in this Article 2, a distribution shall be made as soon as is administratively practicable following the discovery of the compliance failure.

2.6 Change in Form or Timing of Distributions. For distributions of benefits under this Article 2, the Executive and the Bank may, subject to the terms of Section 8.1, amend the Agreement to delay the timing or change the form of distributions. Any such amendment:

 

  (a) may not accelerate the time or schedule of any distribution, except as provided in Section 409A of the Code and the Regulations thereunder;

 

  (b) must be made at least twelve (12) months prior to the first scheduled distribution;

 

4

  (c) must delay the commencement of distributions for a minimum of five (5) years from the date the first distribution was originally scheduled to be made; and

 

  (d) must take effect not less than twelve (12) months after the amendment is made.

ARTICLE 3

DISTRIBUTION AT DEATH

3.1 Death While in Service. If the Executive dies while employed by the Bank, the Executive’s Beneficiary shall be entitled to a death benefit equal to the Accrued Benefit under this Agreement. The Bank shall distribute the Accrued Benefit to the Executive’s Beneficiary in a lump sum within sixty (60) days following the date of the Bank’s receipt of the Executive’s death certificate. The Accrued Benefit shall be distributed in lieu of the benefits described under Article 2.

3.2 Death During Distribution Period. If the Executive dies after Separation from Service while entitled to or receiving benefit distributions under this Agreement, the Bank shall distribute to the Beneficiary the Executive’s remaining benefit in a lump sum within sixty (60) days following the date of the Bank’s receipt of the Executive’s death certificate. The lump sum benefit shall be distributed in lieu of the benefits described under Article 2.

ARTICLE 4

BENEFICIARIES

4.1 Beneficiary. The Executive shall have the right, at any time, to designate a Beneficiary to receive any benefit distributions under this Agreement upon the death of the Executive. The Beneficiary designated under this Agreement may be the same as or different from the beneficiary designation under any other plan of the Bank in which the Executive participates.

4.2 Beneficiary Designation: Change. The Executive shall designate a Beneficiary by completing and signing the Beneficiary Designation Form, and delivering it to the Plan Administrator or its designated agent. The Executive’s beneficiary designation shall be deemed automatically revoked if the Beneficiary predeceases the Executive or if the Executive names a spouse as Beneficiary and the marriage is subsequently dissolved. The Executive shall have the right to change a Beneficiary by completing, signing and otherwise complying with the terms of the Beneficiary Designation Form and the Plan Administrator’s rules and procedures, as in effect from time to time. Upon the acceptance by the Plan Administrator of a new Beneficiary Designation Form, all Beneficiary designations previously filed shall be cancelled. The Plan Administrator shall be entitled to rely on the last Beneficiary Designation Form filed by the Executive and accepted by the Plan Administrator prior to the Executive’s death.

4.3 Acknowledgment. No designation or change in designation of a Beneficiary shall be effective until received, accepted and acknowledged in writing by the Plan Administrator or its designated agent.

4.4 No Beneficiary Designation. If the Executive dies without a valid beneficiary designation, or if all designated Beneficiaries predecease the Executive, then the Executive’s spouse shall be the designated Beneficiary. If the Executive has no surviving spouse, the benefits shall be made to the personal representative of the Executive’s estate.

4.5 Facility of Distribution. If the Plan Administrator determines in its discretion that a benefit is to be distributed to a minor, to a person declared incompetent, or to a person incapable of

 

5

handling the disposition of that person’s property, the Plan Administrator may direct distribution of such benefit to the guardian, legal representative or person having the care or custody of such minor, incompetent person or incapable person. The Plan Administrator may require proof of incompetence, minority or guardianship as it may deem appropriate prior to distribution of the benefit. Any distribution of a benefit shall be a distribution for the account of the Executive and the Executive’s Beneficiary, as the case may be, and shall be a complete discharge of any liability under the Agreement for such distribution amount.
