contained herein and as a condition to the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder,
for a two year period from and after the termination of his employment with the Company for any

by the Executive has continued for a period of one month following the notification of such

years, no as conferring upon Executive the right to continue in the employ of the Company in his
present capacity, or in any other capacity. It is expressly understood by the parties that this
Agreement relates exclusively to additional compensation for Executive&#146;s services, which
compensation is payable after his Retirement from active service with the Company, and is not
intended to be an employment contract.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.2 Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant to the provisions hereof

unsecured general creditor of the Company.

designated beneficiary nor any other beneficiary shall have any rights whatsoever therein; the

otherwise encumber any part or all of the amounts payable by the Company hereunder, nor shall such
amounts be subject to seizure by an creditor of any such beneficiary, by a proceeding at law or in
equity, and no such benefit shall be transferable by operation of law in the event of the
bankruptcy, insolvency or death of Executive, his spouse, his designated beneficiary or any other
beneficiary hereunder. Any such attempted assignment or transfer shall be void and shall terminate
this Agreement, and the Company shall have no further liability hereunder.
