Notwithstanding the provisions of [Section 4] of this Grant Agreement, in the event of the Employee’s termination due to retirement in accordance with the applicable retirement policy, or Permanent and Total Disability, this Stock Option shall vest in full and the Employee may exercise the Employee’s rights under this Grant Agreement within three years from the date of termination. In all cases, however, this Stock Option will expire no later than the Expiration Date. The Company’s obligation to vest the Stock Option under this paragraph is subject to the condition that # the Employee shall have executed a current Agreement Regarding Confidential Information and Proprietary Developments (“ARCIPD”) that is satisfactory to the Company no later than the date immediately prior to the date of the Employee’s termination of employment, # the Employee has not engaged in any conduct that creates a conflict of interest in the opinion of the Company during the Employee’s active employment with the Company and any-post employment period during which the Stock Option remains outstanding and # the Employee is in compliance with any-post employment restrictions in the ARCIPD during the period in which the Stock Option remains outstanding.

Early Retirement Employee. If a Change of Control (as such term is defined in Paragraph 6(c)(ii) below) occurs during the Term of this Agreement, the Executive may elect by written notice given to the Bank at any time within six (6) months after such Change of Control to terminate the employment of the Executive by the Bank whereupon the Executive will become an "Early Retirement Employee" and will be entitled to receive such payments as are provided hereafter in this Paragraph 6. Such election and the termination of the Executive's employment shall become effective on the first day of the second calendar month commencing after delivery of such notice (the "Early Retirement Effective Date").

Death, Disability, Retirement. In the event that the Employee’s employment terminates on or prior to the Stock Unit Expiration Date by reason of death, permanent disability (as determined under the Company’s Long Term Disability Plan), termination of employment after attaining age 65 (other than for “Cause”), or termination of employment after both attaining age 55 and completing at least 5 years of service (other than for “Cause”), the Employee (or in the case of the Employee's death, the Employee's estate or designated beneficiary) shall become vested in a number of Stock Units equal to the product of # the total number of Stock Units in which the Employee would have become vested upon the Stock Unit Expiration Date had the Employee's employment not terminated, and # a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of full calendar months between the Stock Unit Commencement Date and the date that employment terminated, and the denominator of which shall be the number of full calendar months from the Stock Unit Commencement Date to the Stock Unit Expiration Date; provided such number of Stock Units so vested shall be reduced by the number of Stock Units that had previously become vested. In the event the Employee is terminated for “Cause” all unpaid awards shall be forfeited. “Cause” shall mean a termination of the Employee’s employment following the occurrence of any of the following events, each of which shall constitute a “Cause” for such termination:

If the Employee’s termination is due to retirement in accordance with an applicable retirement policy, a pro rata portion of the PARSUs shall vest at the end of the 36-month Performance Period based on actual performance as determined in accordance with [Sections 3(a)] and/or 3(b). Pro rata vesting shall be based on the number of full months elapsed from the beginning of the performance period to the date of the Employee’s termination due to retirement. The Company’s obligation to deliver the amounts that vest pursuant to this [Section 10] is subject to the condition that # the Employee shall have executed a current Agreement Regarding Confidential Information and Proprietary Developments (“ARCIPD”) that is satisfactory to the Company no later than the date immediately prior to the date of the Employee’s termination of employment, # the Employee has not engaged in any conduct that creates a conflict of interest in the opinion of the Company during the Employee’s active employment with the Company and any-post employment period during which the PARSU remains outstanding, and # the Employee is in compliance with any-post employment restrictions in the ARCIPD during the period in which the PARSU remains outstanding.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Participant’s employment terminates as a result of the Participant’s death, Disability or Retirement during a Plan Year after having attained at least three (3) full months of participation in the Plan during such Plan Year, the Participant, or the Participant’s beneficiary in the case of the Participant’s death, may, in the sole discretion of the Executive Team (or, in the case of a Participant who is an Executive Officer or Additional Person, in the discretion of the O&C Committee), be entitled to receive payment of a partial Award, prorated for the number of months that the individual was a Participant during the Plan Year in which such death, Disability or Retirement takes place. For purposes of applying this proration, a month shall include each month during which the individual was employed by the Company on the 15th day of such month prior to the individual’s death, Disability or Retirement, as the case may be. Any such Award shall be paid at the same time and in the same form that all other Awards are paid for such Plan Year. The decisions of the Executive Team (or, in the case of a Participant who is an Executive Officer or Additional Person, the decisions of the O&C Committee) with respect to such Awards shall be final and binding on all parties. For purposes of this provision, a Participant’s beneficiary shall be his/her surviving spouse or, if he/she has no surviving spouse, his/her estate.

Death, Retirement or Disability. Executive’s employment and the Employment Period shall terminate automatically upon Executive’s death or Retirement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” shall mean Executive’s voluntary resignation of employment on or after attaining age fifty-five (55) with at least ten (10) years of service. If the Committee determines in good faith that the Disability of Executive has occurred (pursuant to the definition of Disability set forth in this § 7(a)), the Company may give to Executive written notice of its intention to terminate Executive’s employment. In such event, Executive’s employment with the Company shall terminate effective on the thirtieth (30th) day after receipt of such written notice by Executive (theDisability Effective Date”), provided that, within the thirty (30) days after such receipt, Executive shall not have returned to full-time performance of Executive’s duties. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean the inability of Executive, as determined by the Committee, to substantially perform the essential functions of his regular duties and responsibilities with or without reasonable accommodation, due to a medically determinable physical or mental illness or other disability which has lasted (or can reasonably be expected to last) for a substantially continuous period of at least six (6) consecutive months.

Participants must be an active employee as of the reward payout date to receive an award with the exception of retirement, death, or disability discussed further in this document.

If a Participant suffers a Disability, the Company shall pay the Retirement Benefit described in [Article 6] to the Participant as if the date of the Participant's Disability were the Participant's Normal Retirement Date; provided, however, that the provisions of [[Sections 6.3, 6.4 and 6.5]5]5]]5]5] regarding payment to a Specified Employee and the 5-year delay of payments following certain elections shall be disregarded for purposes of the payment of the Disability Benefit pursuant to this [Article 9].

Disability Retirement Benefit: A Participant who has completed at least three (3) Years of Credited Service and who retires by reason of Total and Permanent Disability shall be eligible to receive his Accrued Benefit (“Disability Retirement Benefit”), commencing as of his Disability Retirement Date. The amount of the Participant’s Disability Retirement Benefit shall be equal to his Accrued Benefit as of his Disability Retirement Date, without adjustment for commencement prior to his Normal Retirement Date. The Participant’s Disability Retirement Benefit shall consist of two components: # the Standard Accrued Benefit or, if applicable, Modified Accrued Benefit, paid in the normal form described in [Section 3.7] and # if applicable, the Incremental Accrued Benefit and/or the Supplemental Accrued Benefit paid in the form elected by the Participant pursuant to [Section 3.8].

Retirement. If, due to Retirement, your Service terminates at least twelve (12) months after the Grant Date and prior to the end of the Performance Period, then your Units shall remain outstanding and eligible to vest on the Scheduled Vesting Date, and the number of Units vesting on the Scheduled Vesting Date will equal the number of Units that would have vested pursuant to this Agreement if your termination of Service had not occurred. For this purpose, Retirement means any termination of employment (other than by the Company for Cause or due to death or Disability) at or after age sixty-five (65) or at or after age fifty-five (55) with ten (10) or more years of continuous Service to the Company and its Affiliates, with Service measured from your most recent date of hire.
