Resignation and Cooperation. During the Term of this Agreement and the 12-month period beginning upon the termination of the Term, at the Bank’s request, to the extent that such cooperation or assistance does not materially interfere with the Executive’s duties to any subsequent employer and at times and places reasonably convenient to the Executive, the Executive shall reasonably cooperate and assist the Bank in connection with any investigations by representatives of the Bank or by governmental authorities, any claims that have been or may be made against the Bank, and any claims that have been or may be made by the Bank, in any case, that in part arise from or relate to the period of time during which the Executive provided services to the Bank. The Executive shall promptly inform the Bank if (i) she becomes aware of any lawsuits involving such claims that may be filed against the Bank; or (ii) she is asked to assist in any investigation of the Bank, regardless of whether a lawsuit has then been filed against the Bank with respect to such investigation. If by reason of conflict of interest or confidentiality concern the Executive cannot be adequately advised or represented by Bank counsel in any such action, the Bank shall pay for separate legal counsel of the Executive's choosing (which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Bank) in connection with such assistance. The Bank shall promptly reimburse the Executive for all of her reasonable out-of-pocket expenses associated with such assistance (including travel expenses and the fees and any expenses of counsel as described above).
