Claim Procedure. If an Employee or former Employee makes a written request alleging a right to receive benefits under this Plan or alleging a right to receive an adjustment in benefits being paid under the Plan, the Committee shall treat it as a claim for benefit. All claims for benefit under the Plan shall be sent to the Committee and must be received within 30 days after termination of employment. If the Committee determines that any individual who has claimed a right to receive benefits, or different benefits, under the Plan is not entitled to receive all or any part of the benefits claimed, it will inform the claimant in writing of its determination and the reasons therefor in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant. The notice will be sent within 60 days of the claim. The notice shall make specific reference to the reasons for denial and pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based, and describe any additional material or information necessary for the claim to succeed and a description of why it is necessary. Such notice shall, in addition, inform the claimant what procedure the claimant should follow to take advantage of the review procedures set forth below in the event the claimant desires to contest the denial of the claim. The claimant may within 90 days thereafter submit in writing to the Committee a notice that the claimant contests the denial of his claim by the Committee and desires a further review. The Committee shall within 60 days thereafter review the claim and authorize the claimant to appear personally and review pertinent documents and submit issues and comments relating to the claim to the persons responsible for making the determination on behalf of the Committee. The Committee will render its final decision with specific reasons therefor and in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant, and will transmit it to the claimant within 60 days of the written request for review. If the Committee fails to respond to a claim filed in accordance with the foregoing within 60 days, the Committee shall be deemed to have denied the claim. This [Section 7.5] shall not serve to prohibit any Participant from bringing an action in a court of competent jurisdiction to enforce his rights under the

Review Procedure. If the Plan Administrator denies part or all of the claim, the claimant shall have the opportunity for a full and fair review by the Plan Administrator of the denial, as follows:

Review Procedure. Within 60 days (180 days in the case of a claim regarding Disability) after the date on which a person receives a written notification of denial of claim (or, if written notification is not provided, within 60 days (180 days in the case of a claim regarding Disability) of the date denial is considered to have occurred), such person (or his or her duly authorized representative) may # file a written request with the Administrator for a review of his or her denied claim and of pertinent documents and # submit written issues and comments to the Administrator. The Administrator will notify such person of its decision in writing. Such notification will be written in a manner calculated to be understood by such person and will contain specific reasons for the decision as well as specific references to pertinent Plan provisions. The notification will explain that the person is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and copies of all pertinent documents and has the right to bring a civil action following an adverse decision on review. The decision on review will be made within 60 days (45 days in the case of a claim regarding Disability). The Administrator may extend the period for making the decision on review by 60 days (45 days in the case of a claim regarding Disability) if special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the request such as an election by the Administrator to hold a hearing, and if written notice of such extension and circumstances is given to such person within the initial 60-day period (45 days in the case of a claim regarding Disability). If the decision on review is not made within such period, the claim will be considered denied.

Review Procedure. If the Claimant is determined by the Bank not to be eligible for benefit, or if the Claimant believes that he or she is entitled to greater or different benefits, the Claimant shall have the opportunity to have such claim reviewed by the Bank by filing a petition for review with the Bank within sixty (60) days after receipt of the notice issued by the Bank. Said petition shall state the specific reasons which the Claimant believes entitle him or her to benefits or to greater or different benefits. Within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Bank of the petition, the Bank shall afford the Claimant (and counsel, if any) an opportunity to present his of her position to the Bank verbally or in writing, and the Claimant (or counsel) shall have the tight to review the pertinent documents. The Bank shall notify the Claimant of its decision in writing within the 60-day period stating specifically the basis of its decision, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant and the specific provisions of the Agreement on which the decision is based. If, because of the need for a hearing, the 60- day period is not sufficient, the decision may be deferred for up to another sixty (60) days at the election of the Bank, but notice of this deferral shall be given to the Claimant.

The Indemnified Representative shall use his best efforts to notify promptly the Secretary of the Corporation of the commencement of any Proceeding or the occurrence of any event which might give rise to a Liability under this Agreement, but the failure to so notify the Corporation shall not relieve the Corporation of any obligation which it may have to the Indemnified Representative under this Agreement or otherwise.

Contribution Procedure. Within fifteen days after receipt by any party to this Agreement (or its representatives) of notice of the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, such party will, if a claim for contribution in respect thereof is to be made against another party (“contributing party”), notify the contributing party of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the contributing party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any other party other than for contribution hereunder. In case any such action, suit or proceeding is brought against any party, and such party notifies a contributing party or its representatives of the commencement thereof within the aforesaid fifteen days, the contributing party will be entitled to participate therein with the notifying party and any other contributing party similarly notified. Any such contributing party shall not be liable to any party seeking contribution on account of any settlement of any claim, action or proceeding effected by such party seeking contribution on account of any settlement of any claim, action or proceeding effected by such party seeking contribution without the written consent of such contributing party. The contribution provisions contained in this Section 9(c) are intended to supersede, to the extent permitted by law, any right to contribution under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise available.

Indemnification Procedure. If the Party to be indemnified intends to claim indemnification under this Clause 12, ​.

Procedure for Offer. Subject to the terms hereof, Landlord shall notify Tenant (the “First Offer Notice”) prior to entering into any lease with a third party for the First Offer Space, which notice shall outline the base rent, allowance amounts if any, length of term, and other economic terms on which Landlord would be willing to lease the First Offer Space (as set forth in such proposal) to Tenant (the "Fundamental Terms"). Pursuant to such First Offer Notice, Landlord shall offer to lease to Tenant the applicable First Offer Space on the Fundamental Terms.

Procedure for Acceptance. If [[Tenant:Organization]] wishes to exercise [[Tenant:Organization]]’s Right of First Offer with respect to the space described in the First Offer Notice, then within ten (10) business days of delivery of the First Offer Notice to [[Tenant:Organization]], [[Tenant:Organization]] shall have the right to deliver notice to [[Landlord:Organization]] (“[[Tenant:Organization]]’s First Offer Exercise Notice”) of [[Tenant:Organization]]’s election to exercise its right of first offer with respect to the entire space described in the First Offer Notice on the terms contained in such notice. If [[Tenant:Organization]] does not deliver [[Tenant:Organization]]’s First Offer Exercise Notice within the ten (10) business day period, then [[Landlord:Organization]] shall be free to enter into a lease (“Third Party Lease”) for the space described in the First Offer Notice to anyone to whom [[Landlord:Organization]] desires on any terms [[Landlord:Organization]] desires for a period of six (6) months after the expiration of such ten (10) business day period. If [[Landlord:Organization]] enters into a Third Party Lease during such six (6)-month period, then [[Tenant:Organization]]’s right of first offer as set forth in this Section 1.3 shall terminate as to all of the space described in such First Offer Notice provided, however, that if [[Landlord:Organization]] desires to lease the First Offer Space to a third party at less than ninety percent (90%) of the “net effective rent” (i.e., the actual rent taking into account all economic terms) set forth in [[Landlord:Organization]]’s First Offer Notice, [[Landlord:Organization]] shall deliver a second notice to [[Tenant:Organization]] with respect to such First Offer Space (and [[Landlord:Organization]]’s second notice shall contain the then-current terms). [[Tenant:Organization]] shall have the same rights with respect to the second notice as it had with respect to the initial First Offer Notice, except that [[Tenant:Organization]] shall only have five (5) business days following receipt of the First Offer Notice to deliver [[Tenant:Organization]]’s First Offer Exercise Notice. If [[Landlord:Organization]] does not enter into a Third Party Lease during such six (6)-month period, then [[Tenant:Organization]]’s rights under this Section 1.3 shall remain in effect and [[Landlord:Organization]] shall follow the procedure herein prior to entering into a Third Party Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, [[Tenant:Organization]] must elect to exercise its Right of First Offer, if at all, with respect to all of the space offered by [[Landlord:Organization]] to [[Tenant:Organization]] at any particular time, and [[Tenant:Organization]] may not elect to lease only a portion thereof.

In order for an indemnified party under this Article 8 (an "Indemnified Party") to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement, such Indemnified Party shall, promptly following the discovery of the matters giving rise to any Loss, notify the indemnifying party under this Article 8 (the "Indemnifying Party") in writing of its claim for indemnification for such Loss, specifying in reasonable detail the nature of such Loss and the amount of the liability estimated to accrue therefrom (the "Indemnification Claim Notice"); provided, however, that failure to give such prompt notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party will have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure. Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, within five (5) Business Days after the Indemnified Party's receipt of such request, all information and documentation reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Loss.
