Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any payments made to
the Executive pursuant to the Agreement, or otherwise, shall be subject to and
conditioned upon compliance with 12 USC ss.1828(k) and any regulations
promulgated thereunder.

or require the Bank to create a trust of any kind to fund any benefits which may
