a.Employment Period. This Agreement shall be for a period (the “Employment Period”) beginning on the Effective Date and, if not previously terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, ending on the date that is two (2) years subsequent thereto; provided, however, that on the first and each subsequent annual anniversary date of this Agreement, and unless a party has given the other party written notice at least 60 days prior to such anniversary date that such party does not agree to renew this Agreement, the term of this Agreement and the Employment Period shall be deemed renewed for a term ending two (2) years subsequent to such anniversary date.

b.Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall mandate or prohibit a continuation of Executive’s employment following the expiration of the term of this Agreement upon such terms as the Board and Executive may mutually agree.

4.Employment Period Compensation, Benefits and Expenses.

a.Annual Base Salary. For services performed by Executive under this Agreement, the Bank shall pay Executive an annual base salary during the Employment Period, minus applicable withholdings and deductions, payable at the same times as salaries are payable to other executive employees of the Bank (the “Annual Base Salary”). The Annual Base Salary shall be at the rate of $275,000.18 per year. The Annual Base Salary shall be reviewed annually by the Board or the Bank Board and either may, from time to time, increase Executive’s Annual Base Salary, and any and all such increases shall be deemed to constitute amendments to this Agreement.

The Corporation and the Bank shall not make any changes in such plans or benefits which would adversely affect Executive’s rights or benefits thereunder unless such change occurs pursuant to a program applicable to all executive officers of Corporation and Bank and does not result in a proportionately greater adverse change in the rights of or benefits to Executive as compared with any other executive officer of Corporation and Bank. Nothing paid to Executive under any plan or arrangement presently in effect or made available in the future shall be deemed to be in lieu of the salary payable to Executive pursuant to Section 4(a) hereof.

g.Perquisites and Business Expenses. During the term of this Agreement, Executive shall be entitled to receive prompt reimbursement for all customary and usual expenses incurred by him, which are properly accounted for, in accordance with the policies and procedures established by the Corporation or the Bank in accordance with industry practice for its senior executive officers.

ii.the Bank shall provide any vested plan benefits that by their terms extend beyond termination of Executive’s employment, but only to the extent provided in any such benefit plan in which Executive has participated in accordance with the terms thereof.

b.If Executive’s employment is involuntarily terminated by the Corporation or the Bank without Cause (other than for death or Disability) or is terminated by Executive for Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled to receive the compensation set forth below:

i.Executive shall be paid severance equal to continuation of Executive’s Annual Base Salary for the greater of: (A) the remaining term of the Employment Period determined as of Executive’s termination of employment; or (B) six (6) months. Such amount shall be paid in accordance with the Bank’s payroll practices commencing with the first payroll date following Executive’s termination of employment. The amount shall be subject to federal, state and local tax withholdings.

ii.In addition, through the end of the period that Executive is receiving severance pursuant to Section 5(b)(i), or until Executive is eligible for substantially similar benefits through other employment, whichever shall first occur, Executive shall be permitted to continue participation in, and the Bank shall maintain the same level of contribution for, Executive’s participation in the Bank’s life, disability, and medical/health insurance, and any other health and welfare benefits in effect with respect to Executive as of the date of his termination of employment, or, if the Bank cannot provide such benefits because Executive is no longer an employee, a dollar amount equal to the after-tax cost to Executive of obtaining such benefits (or substantially similar benefits).

c.Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in Section 5(b)(i) by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of payment or the benefit

provided for in Section 5(b)(i) be reduced by any compensation earned by Executive as the result of employment by another employer or by reason of Executive’s receipt of or right to receive any retirement or other benefits after the date of termination of employment or otherwise.

d.In addition to the payments and benefits provided under Section 5(a) and 5(b), if Executive’s employment is involuntarily terminated by the Corporation or the Bank without Cause (other than for death or Disability), Executive may elect with respect to any automobile made available to him by the Bank to: (i) in the case of a vehicle owned by the Bank, purchase such vehicle for a cash price equal to then-applicable wholesale value as published by Kelley Blue Book or a similar service reasonably identified by the Bank; or (ii) in the case of a vehicle leased by the Bank on conventional terms, assume the lease for the vehicle (provided that assumption is permitted by the lessor); or (iii) return such vehicle to the Bank without any liability of any kind whatsoever to Executive in respect of future liabilities related to such vehicle.

6.Restrictive Covenants: Confidentiality, Non-Solicitation, Non-Disparagement.

a.Executive agrees that he shall not at any time, except in performance of his obligations to the Corporation and the Bank or with the prior written consent of the Corporation or the Bank, directly or indirectly, reveal to any “Person” (as defined in Section 3(9) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended) (other than the Corporation, the Bank, or their employees, officers, directors, shareholders, or agents) or use for the Executive’s own benefit any confidential information of the Corporation, the Bank, or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates (such subsidiaries and affiliates, collectively “Affiliates”) relating to the assets, liabilities, employees, goodwill, or business affairs of the Corporation, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates, including, without limitation, any information concerning past, present, or prospective customers, marketing, operating, or financial data, or other confidential information used by, or useful to, the Corporation, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates and known (whether or not known with the knowledge and permission of the Corporation, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates and whether or not at any time prior to the Effective Date developed, devised, or otherwise created in whole or in part by Executive’s efforts) to Executive by reason of Executive’s employment by, shareholdings in, or other association with the Corporation, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates and which is of tangible or intangible value to the Corporation, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates and the details of which are not generally known to their competitors or the general public (“Confidential Information”). Executive further agrees that Executive will retain all copies and extracts of any written or electronic Confidential Information acquired or developed by Executive during any such employment, shareholding, or association in trust for the sole benefit of the Corporation, the Bank, their Affiliates, and their successors and assigns. Upon the request and at the expense of the Corporation or the Bank, Executive will promptly make all disclosures, execute all instruments and papers, and perform all acts reasonably necessary to vest and confirm in the Corporation, the Bank, and their Affiliates, fully and completely, all rights created or contemplated by this Section 6(a). The term “Confidential Information” will not include information that is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by, or at the direction of, Executive. Executive’s agreements set forth in this Section 6(a) regarding Confidential Information are independent of, and in addition to, Executive’s agreements set forth in the rest of Section 6 and will not be construed either to enlarge or to contract the scope of such other agreements.

b.Executive agrees with the Corporation and the Bank that, for so long as Executive is employed by the Corporation, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates, and for a period of time (defined below) following Executive’s termination of employment (whether prior to or after a Change in Control) (“Non-Solicit Period”), Executive will not in any way, directly or indirectly (except in the course of Executive’s employment with the Corporation, the Bank, and their Affiliates), for the purpose of conducting or engaging in any Competing Business, call upon, solicit, advise, or accept business from any Person who is, or was, during the then most recent 12-month period, a customer of the Corporation, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates, or take away or interfere or attempt to take away or interfere with any custom, trade, business, patronage, or affairs of the Corporation, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates, or hire or attempt to hire, or otherwise engage or attempt to engage as an independent contractor or otherwise any Person who is, or was during the then most recent 12-month period, an employee, officer, representative, or agent of the Corporation, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates, or solicit, induce, or attempt to solicit or induce any Person who is an employee, officer, representative, or agent of the Corporation, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates to leave the employ of the Corporation, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates or cease their business

relationship with Corporation, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates (as the case may be), or violate the terms of their contracts, or any employment arrangements, with the Corporation, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates.

i.In the event that Executive is involuntarily terminated for Cause or voluntary terminates employment without Good Reason, the Non-Solicit Period for all purposes (i.e., both customers and employees) will last for 12 months from the date of such termination.

ii.In the event that Executive is involuntarily terminated without Cause or voluntary terminates employment for Good Reason, the Non-Solicit Period with respect to customers will last for six (6) months from the date of such termination, and the Non-Solicit Period with respect to employees will last for 12 months from the date of such termination.

c.For purposes of this Section 6, a “Competing Business” means a business or enterprise (other than the Corporation, the Bank, and their Affiliates) that is engaged in the commercial banking, financial services or investment, insurance, or any similar financial services-related business in which the Corporation, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates is/are currently engaged or was/were so engaged during the most recent 12 months.

d.For purposes of this Section 6, a “Change in Control” means, a change in the ownership or effective control of the Corporation or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Corporation, as determined pursuant to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”) and the regulations and guidance thereunder.

e.Executive confirms that all Confidential Information is and will remain the exclusive property of the Corporation, the Bank, and their Affiliates. All business records, papers, and documents kept or made by Executive relating to the business of the Corporation, the Bank, and/or their Affiliates will be and remain the property of the Corporation, the Bank, and their Affiliates.

f.Executive agrees to refrain from making, publishing, or communicating to any person or entity or in any public forum any defamatory or disparaging remarks, comments, or statements concerning the Corporation, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates, or any of its or their employees, officers, directors, agents, or advisors in their capacities as such. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, nothing in this Section 6(f) will preclude Executive from fulfilling any duty or obligation that Executive may have at law, from responding to any subpoena or official inquiry from any court or government agency (including providing truthful testimony and/or documents subpoenaed or requested), from cooperating in good faith with any such proceeding or investigation, from consulting with an attorney retained by Executive, or from taking any reasonable actions to enforce Executive’s rights under this Agreement.

g.Without intending to limit the remedies available to the Corporation, the Bank, and their Affiliates, Executive agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 6 may result in material and irreparable injury to the Corporation, the Bank, or their Affiliates for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it will not be possible to measure damages for such injuries precisely and that, in the event of such a breach or threat thereof, the Corporation, the Bank, and their Affiliates will be entitled to seek a temporary restraining order or a preliminary or permanent injunction, or both, without bond or other security, restraining Executive from engaging in activities prohibited by this Section 6 or such other relief as may be required specifically to enforce any of the covenants in this Section 6. Such injunctive relief in any court will be available to the Corporation, the Bank, and their Affiliates in lieu of, or prior to or pending determination in, any arbitration proceeding.

h.Although the parties consider the restrictions contained in this Section 6 to be the minimum restriction reasonable for the purposes of preserving the Corporation’s and the Bank’s goodwill and other proprietary rights, if a final determination is made by a court that any restriction contained in this Section 6 is an unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable restriction against the Executive, the provisions of this Section 6 will not be rendered void, but will be deemed amended to apply to the maximum extent permitted by the court.

i.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5, in the event that Executive breaches any of the covenants contained in this Section 6:

i.Any remaining payments or benefits to be provided under Section 5 will not be paid or will cease immediately upon such breach; and

ii.The Corporation and the Bank will be entitled to the immediate repayment of all payments and benefits provided to Executive under Section 5 following the date of any such breach.

j.Executive agrees that the covenants contained in this Section 6 may be assigned by the Corporation and the Bank, as needed, to affect its purpose and intent and that the Corporation’s or the Bank’s assignee will be entitled to the full benefit of the restrictions enjoyed by the Corporation and the Bank under the terms of these covenants.

k.Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement:

i.Executive will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for any disclosure of a trade secret that:

1.is made: (a) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (b) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or

2.is made in a complaint or other document filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding.

ii.If Executive files a lawsuit for retaliation by the Corporation, the Bank, or their Affiliates for reporting a suspected violation of law, Executive may disclose the Corporation’s, the Bank’s, or their Affiliate’s trade secrets to Executive’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, but only if Executive:

1.files any document containing trade secrets under seal; and

2.does not disclose trade secrets, except pursuant to court order.

7.Required Release. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Executive’s entitlement to any payments under Section 5 shall be contingent upon Executive’s prior agreement with and signature to a complete release agreement in the form as mutually agreed by the parties. Such release agreement shall be executed, if at all, and the applicable payments and benefits contingent upon the execution of such agreement shall be provided or commence being provided, if at all, within 60 days following the date of termination; provided, however, that if such 60-day period begins in one taxable year and ends in a second taxable year, the payments and benefits will be provided or commence being provided, if at all, in the second taxable year. The form of such release agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by reference.

8.Notices. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be deemed properly given if in writing and if mailed by registered or certified U.S. mail, postage prepaid with return receipt requested, and by regular U.S. mail, postage prepaid, to Executive’s address, in the case of notices to Executive, and to the principal executive office of the Corporation, in the case of notice to the Corporation or the Bank.

9.Waiver. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived, or discharged unless such waiver, modification, or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by Executive and an executive officer specifically designated by the Board. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time.

10.Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assignable by any party, except by the Bank and the Corporation to any successor in interest to its business.

11.Integration. In the event that Executive: (i) is a party to an agreement with the Corporation and/or the Bank providing for compensation and/or benefits in the event Executive’s employment terminates following a change in control of the Corporation and/or the Bank (not including any Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan Agreement entered into between Executive and the Bank) (a “Change in Control Agreement”); (ii) becomes entitled to such compensation and/or benefits; and (iii) becomes entitled to the compensation and benefits under Section 5, then the compensation and/or benefits payable to Executive under the Change in Control Agreement shall offset any compensation and/or benefits payable to Executive pursuant to Section 5. Except as provided under a Change in Control Agreement, this Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes and replaces any prior written or oral agreements between them respecting the within subject matter.

12.Successors, Binding Agreement.

a.The Corporation and the Bank will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Corporation and/or the Bank to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Corporation and the Bank would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. As used in this Agreement, “Corporation” and “Bank” shall mean the Corporation and the Bank as defined previously and any successor to its respective

business and/or assets as aforesaid which assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement by operation of law or otherwise.

b.This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs, distributees, devisees, or legatees. If Executive should die following termination of Executive’s employment without Cause, and any amounts would be payable to Executive under this Agreement if Executive had continued to live, all such amounts shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to Executive’s devisee, legatee, or other designee, or, if there is no such designee, to Executive’s estate.

13.Legal Expenses; Indemnification.

a.In the event that a party to this Agreement is required to commence litigation to obtain or enforce any right or benefit of such party under this Agreement, such party shall be entitled to reimbursement from the other party for fees and costs reasonably incurred by such party in such litigation to the extent that such party is the prevailing party in such litigation.

b.The Bank shall indemnify Executive against payment of any claims arising out of or in connection with any business of the Bank or the Corporation, and against payment of any costs reasonably incurred by Executive in defending against any such claims, to the fullest extent permitted by law and by the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Corporation and the Bank.

14.Validity. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.

15.Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic, internal laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to its conflicts of laws principles.

16.Headings. The section headings of this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction or limit the scope or intent of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

17.Limitations on Payments.

a.Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that it shall be determined as set forth herein that any payment or distribution by the Corporation or the Bank to or for the benefit of Executive, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (a “Payment”), would constitute an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and that it would be economically advantageous to Executive to reduce the Payment to avoid or reduce the taxation of excess parachute payments under Section 4999 of the Code, the aggregate present value of amounts payable or distributable to or for the benefit of Executive pursuant to this Agreement (such payments or distributions pursuant to this Agreement are hereinafter referred to as “Agreement Payments”) shall be reduced (but not below zero) to the Reduced Amount. The “Reduced Amount” shall be an amount expressed in present value which maximizes the aggregate present value of Agreement Payments without causing any Payment to be subject to the taxation under Section 4999 of the Code. For purposes of this Section 17, present value shall be determined in accordance with Section 280G(d)(4) of the Code.

b.All determinations to be made under this Section 17 shall be made, in writing, by the Corporation’s independent certified public accountant immediately prior to the Change of Control (the “Accounting Firm”), which firm shall provide its determinations and any supporting calculations in writing to both the Corporation and you within 10 days of the date of termination. Any such determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Corporation and you. You shall in your sole discretion determine which and how much of the Agreement Payments shall be eliminated or reduced consistent with the requirements of this Section 17, which determination shall be made by delivery of written notice to the Corporation within 10 days of your receipt of the determination of the Accounting Firm. Within five (5) days after your timely determination, the Corporation shall pay (or cause to be paid) or distribute (or cause to be distributed) to or for the benefit of you, such amounts as are then due to you under this Agreement. In the event you do not make such timely determination then within 15 days after Corporation’s receipt of the determination of the Accounting Firm, the Corporation, in its sole discretion, may pay (or cause to be paid) or distribute (or cause to be distributed) to or for the benefit of you such portion of the Agreement Payments as it may deem appropriate, but no less than the Reduced Amount.

c.As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 280G of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that Agreement Payments, as the case may be, will have been made by the Corporation which should not have been made (“Overpayment”) or that additional Agreement Payments which have not been made by the Corporation could have been made (“Underpayment”), in each case, consistent with the

calculations required to be made hereunder. Within two (2) years after the Separation from Service, the Accounting Firm shall review the determination made by it pursuant to the preceding paragraph. In the event that the Accounting Firm determines that an Overpayment has been made, any such Overpayment shall be treated for all purposes as a loan to you which you shall repay to the Corporation together with interest at the applicable Federal rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2) of the Code (the “Federal Rate”); provided, however, that no amount shall be payable by you to the Corporation if and to the extent such payment would not reduce the amount which is subject to taxation under Section 4999 of the Code. In the event that the Accounting Firm determines that an Underpayment has occurred, any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Corporation to or for the benefit of you together with interest thereon at the Federal Rate.

d.All of the fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm in performing the determinations referred to in paragraphs (b) and (c) above shall be borne solely by the Corporation. The Corporation agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Accounting Firm of and from any and all claims, damages and expenses of any nature resulting from or relating to its determinations pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) above, except for claims, damages or expenses resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Accounting Firm.

e.All payments made to Executive pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, are subject to and conditioned upon their compliance with applicable laws and any regulations promulgated thereunder.

18.Recovery of Bonuses and Incentive Compensation. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, all bonuses and incentive compensation, but not Annual Base Salary or payments due Executive under Section 5, paid hereunder (whether in equity or in cash) shall be subject to recovery by the Corporation or the Bank in the event that such bonuses or incentive compensation are based on materially inaccurate financial statements or other materially inaccurate performance metric criteria; provided that a determination as to the recovery of a bonus or incentive compensation shall be made within 24 months following the date such bonus or incentive compensation was paid. In the event that the Board or the Bank Board determines that a bonus or incentive compensation payment to Executive is recoverable, Executive shall reimburse all or a portion of such bonus or incentive compensation, to the fullest extent permitted by law, as soon as practicable following written notice to Executive by the Corporation or the Bank of the same

19.Application of Code Section 409A.

a.Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the receipt of any benefits under this Agreement as a result of a termination of employment shall be subject to satisfaction of the condition precedent that Executive undergo a “separation from service” within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(h) or any successor thereto. In addition, if Executive is deemed to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provisions of any benefit that is required to be delayed pursuant to Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), such payment or benefit shall not be made or provided prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6) month period measured from the date of Executive’s “separation from service” (as such term is defined in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(h)), or (ii) the date of Executive’s death (the “Delay Period”). Within 10 days following the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to Executive in a lump sum, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the foregoing applies to the provision of any ongoing welfare benefits to Executive that would not be required to be delayed if the premiums therefore were paid by Executive, Executive shall pay the full costs of premiums for such welfare benefits during the Delay Period and the Corporation or the Bank shall pay Executive an amount equal to the amount of such premiums paid by Executive during the Delay Period within 10 days after the conclusion of such Delay Period.

b.Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to the extent any expense reimbursement or other in-kind benefit is determined to be subject to Code Section 409A, the amount of any such expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits in one calendar year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits in any other taxable year (except under any lifetime limit applicable to expenses for medical care), in no event shall any expenses be reimbursed or in-kind benefits be provided after the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which Executive incurred such expenses or received such benefits, and in no

event shall any right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

c.Any payments made pursuant to Section 5, to the extent of payments made from the date of termination through March 15th of the calendar year following such date, are intended to constitute separate payments for purposes of Treas. Reg. §1.409A-2(b)(2) and thus payable pursuant to the “short-term deferral” rule set forth in Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(4); to the extent such payments are made following said March 15th, they are intended to constitute separate payments for purposes of Treas. Reg. §1.409A-2(b)(2) made upon an involuntary termination from service and payable pursuant to Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), to the maximum extent permitted by said provision.

d.To the extent it is determined that any benefits described in Section 5(a)(ii) are taxable to Executive, they are intended to be payable pursuant to Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(9)(v), to the maximum extent permitted by said provision.

20.Limitation on Golden Parachute Payments. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the obligation to make payment of any severance benefits as provided herein (including, without limitation, any payments due Executive under Section 5, and, to the extent incurred after termination, legal fees and expenses covered by Section 13) is conditioned upon compliance with applicable law, including 12 C.F.R. Part 359. In addition, Executive covenants and agrees that the Corporation and the Bank and their successors and assigns shall have the right to demand the return of any “golden parachute payments” (as defined in 12 C.F.R. Part 359) in the event that any of them obtain information indicating that Executive committed, is substantially responsible for, or has violated, the respective acts or omissions, conditions, or offenses contained in 12 C.F.R. §359.4(a)(4), and Executive shall promptly return any such “golden parachute payment” upon such demand.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the Effective Date first set forth above.
