The Trustee has the right to sell allocated shares held by the ESOP, the proceeds from which are allocated to the accounts of individual participants.

Absent such direction by the Board of Directors, cash from the payment of dividends is retained in the accounts of participants or, to the extent permitted by law, may be used to repay the ESOP loan.
