S. Deferred Compensation Account. Following the determination by the Administrative committee of the amount of deferred incentive compensation to be allocated to a Manager, the credit Union shall deposit to a book reserve (the "Deferred compensation Account") an amount of money equal to the amount of deferred incentive compensation allocated to each Manager. Funds credited to the Deferred Compensation Account 111qy be kept in cash or invested and reinvested in mutual funds, stocks, bonds, securities or other assets as may be approved by the Administrative Committee within guidelines established by the Board of Directors from time to time.

The arbitration will be conducted in conformity with Washington Mandatory Arbitration Rule 5.2 and the Washington Rules of Evidence.
