(5)            Death During Employment

 

If the Executive does not exercise any withdrawal rights pursuant to Subsection 2.2, and dies while employed by the Bank, and if, following the Executive’s death, the assets of the Retirement Income Trust Fund are insufficient to provide the Supplemental Retirement Income Benefit to which the Executive is entitled, the Bank shall be required to make a Contribution to the Retirement Income Trust Fund equal to the sum of the remaining Contributions set forth on Exhibit A, after taking into consideration any payments under any life insurance policies that may have been obtained on the Executive’s life by the Retirement Income Trust Fund. Such final contribution shall be payable in a lump sum to the Retirement Income Trust Fund within thirty (30) days of the Executive’s death.

Such Phantom Contributions shall continue to be recorded annually, unless this Subsection 2.1(c) specifically states otherwise, until the earlier of (i) the last Plan Year that Phantom Contributions are required pursuant to Exhibit A, or (ii) the Plan Year of the Executive’s termination of employment.

 

(2)            Termination Following a Change in Control

 

If the Executive exercises his withdrawal rights pursuant to Subsection 2.2, Phantom Contributions shall commence in the Plan Year following the Plan Year in which the Executive first exercises his withdrawal rights. If a Change in Control occurs at the Bank, and within thirty-six (36) months of such Change in Control, the Executive’s employment is either (i) involuntarily terminated, or (ii) voluntarily terminated by the Executive after: (A) a material change in the Executive’s function, duties, or responsibilities, which change would cause the Executive’s position to become one of lesser responsibility, importance, or scope from the position the Executive held at the time of the Change in Control, (B) a relocation of the Executive’s principal place of employment by more than thirty (30) miles from its location prior to the Change in Control, or (C) a material reduction in the benefits and perquisites to the Executive from those being provided at the time of the Change in Control, the Phantom Contribution set forth below shall be required of the Bank. The Bank shall be required to record a lump sum Phantom Contribution in the Accrued Benefit Account within ten (10) days of the Executive’s termination of employment. The amount of such final Phantom Contribution shall be actuarially determined based on the Phantom Contribution required, at such time, in order to provide a benefit via this Agreement equivalent to the Supplemental Retirement Income Benefit, on an after-tax basis, commencing on the Executive’s Benefit Eligibility Date and continuing for the duration of the Payout Period. (Such actuarial determination shall reflect the fact that amounts shall be payable from both the Accrued Benefit Account as well as the Retirement Income Trust Fund and shall also reflect the amount and timing of any withdrawal(s) made by the Executive from the Retirement Income Trust Fund pursuant to Subsection 2.2.)

 

(3)            Termination For Cause

(5)            Death During Employment

 

If the Executive exercises his withdrawal rights pursuant to Subsection 2.2, and dies while employed by the Bank, Phantom Contributions included on Exhibit A shall be required of the Bank. Such Phantom Contributions shall commence in the Plan Year following the Plan Year in which the Executive exercises his withdrawal rights and shall continue through the Plan Year in which the Executive dies. The Bank shall also be required to record a final Phantom Contribution within thirty (30) days of the Executive’s death. The amount of such final Phantom Contribution shall be actuarially determined based on the Phantom Contribution required at such time (if any), in order to provide a benefit via this Agreement equivalent to the Supplemental Retirement Income Benefit commencing within thirty (30) days of the date the Administrator receives notice of the Executive’s death and continuing for the duration of the Payout Period. (Such actuarial determination shall reflect the fact that amounts shall be payable from the Accrued Benefit Account as well as the Retirement Income Trust Fund and shall also reflect the amount and timing of any withdrawal(s) made by the Executive pursuant to Subsection 2.2).
