ARTICLE II

GENERAL


 


2.01            Effective
Date. The provisions of the Plan are adopted effective December 30, 2020, to provide an additional supplemental
retirement benefit to the Participant, upon his promotion to Chief Executive Officer of the Company, subject to continued service
after the Effective Date and the other terms and conditions set forth herein. The Plan provides benefits that are in addition to,
and not a replacement of, the benefits payable to Participant under the terms of the Original Plan. In addition, it is intended
that the commencement date, form, and timing of benefits payable under the Plan shall be the same as the commencement date, form,
and timing of benefits payable under the Original Plan (although benefits under the Plan are subject to additional vesting requirements),
and the Plan shall be administered and interpreted accordingly.


 


2.02            Purpose.
The purpose of the Plan is to provide supplemental retirement income to a Participant. The Plan is intended to be (and shall be
construed and administered as) an “employee pension benefit plan” under the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”) which is unfunded and is maintained by the Bank solely to provide retirement income
to a select group of management or highly compensated employees. The Plan also is intended to comply with Code Section 409A
and Treasury Regulations thereunder. All provisions of the Plan, including elections, consents and modifications thereto, should
be interpreted consistent with that intent. If any provision of the Plan, including any election procedures, consents or modifications
thereto, would be prohibited by or inconsistent with Code section 409A, then such provision shall be amended to comply with Code
section 409A. The Administrator is authorized to adopt rules or regulations deemed necessary or appropriate to anticipate
or comply with Code section 409A and to declare any election, consent or modification thereto void if non-compliant with Code section
409A.


 


ARTICLE III


ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION


 


3.01            Eligibility.
Eligibility for Plan participation shall be limited to the Eligible Employee, who is a member of a select group of management and
highly compensated employees of the Employer.


 


3.02            Participation.
The Eligible Employee shall become a Participant on the Effective Date and shall remain a Participant unless and until the Committee
resolves that such employee is no longer eligible to participate in the Plan. Any action to remove a previously Eligible Employee
shall be effective as of the later of: (i) the date the action is taken or (ii) the stated effective date of the action.
If the Participant’s participation in the Plan is revoked and terminated shall be provided only those benefits to which he
otherwise is entitled, under the terms of Article IV, as to participation through his termination of participation.


 


ARTICLE IV


SUPPLEMENTAL BENEFIT


 


4.01            Supplemental
Benefit. The Participant shall be entitled to a Supplemental Benefit in accordance with Section 4.04, pursuant
to the Schedule of Benefits attached hereto as Schedule B.


 


4.02            Termination
of Employment. The Supplemental Benefit of a Participant who has a Termination of Employment shall be determined
by multiplying the amount of each monthly payment that is part of his Supplemental Benefit, provided in Schedule B, by a fraction
in which the Participant’s total Years of Service (up to a maximum of his Service Requirement) is the numerator and the Service
Requirement is the denominator (the Years of Service and the Service Requirement shall be expressed in whole months for purposes
of such fraction).


 






    4


     


    

 


4.03            Accelerated
Vesting. Notwithstanding the Participant’s Service Requirement described in Schedule B, if a Participant becomes
Disabled or has a Termination of Employment due to death, vesting will accelerate and the Participant will be entitled to the full
amount of his Supplemental Benefit as if he has satisfied the full Service Requirement. In addition, upon a Change in Control,
vesting will accelerate, and the Participant will be entitled to the full amount of his Supplemental Benefit, without regard to
his Service Requirement, upon Termination of Employment.


 


4.04            Normal
Form and Timing of Supplemental Benefit.


 


(a)            A
Participant’s Supplemental Benefit shall be paid in a series of equal monthly payments for the period provided on Schedule
B, on the first day of each applicable month.


 


(b)            Supplemental
Benefit payments shall commence on the first day of the month following the later of the Participant’s Termination of Employment
or November 1, 2023. A Supplemental Benefit payment made to a Specified Employee shall commence on the first day of the month
following the six-month anniversary of the Specified Employee’s Termination of Employment, unless an exception to this delay
applies under Code section 409A — e.g., in the case of Disability or payment beginning on a specified Benefit Commencement
Date. The initial payment made under the preceding sentence shall include amounts that would have been paid through the date of
such initial payment had the Participant not been a Specified Employee.


 


4.05            General
Limitations. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, the Bank shall not pay any benefit under
this Plan if such payment would result in the violation of any banking law, regulation or regulatory order.


 


4.06            No
Acceleration of Payment. Except as provided in Code section 409A and Treasury Regulations thereunder, no acceleration
in the time or schedule of any payment or amount scheduled to be paid under the Plan is permitted.


 


ARTICLE V


DEATH BENEFITS


 


5.01            Pre-Termination
Survivor Benefit. If a Participant dies while employed by the Bank, the Participant’s spouse, or the Participant’s
designated beneficiary in the event the Participant has no spouse or the spouse fails to survive the Participant, shall be entitled
to receive the amount by which (i) the Present Value of the full amount of the Participant’s Supplemental Benefit (taking
into account any accelerated vesting applicable under Section 4.03) exceeds (ii) the death benefits payable to a beneficiary
designated by the Executive under a life insurance contract owned by the Bank and subject to a split dollar insurance agreement
between the Bank and the Participant. Payment due under this Section 5.01 shall be made within ninety (90) days following
the Participant’s death, in a lump sum.


 


5.02            Post-Termination
Survivor Benefit. If a Participant dies after his Termination of Employment, the Participant’s spouse, or
the Participant’s designated beneficiary in the event the Participant has no spouse or the spouse fails to survive the Participant,
shall be entitled to receive the remaining installments of his Supplemental Benefit at the time or times such installments would
have been paid under Article IV.


 






    5


     


    

 


5.03            Beneficiary
Designation. A Participant shall designate a primary and contingent beneficiary on the form furnished by the Bank
(attached hereto as Exhibit A), which may be changed by the Participant from time to time by written notice to the Bank and
upon such change the rights of all previously designated beneficiaries to receive any benefits under this Plan shall cease. If
the Participant’s spouse fails to survive him and (i) the Participant has failed to make a beneficiary designation,
(ii) no person designated as beneficiary is alive, (iii) no trust has been established, or (iv) no successor beneficiary
has been designated who is alive, the beneficiary shall be the Participant’s surviving children, or if no children are alive,
the Participant’s parent or parents, or if no parent is alive, the legal representative of the deceased Participant’s
estate.


 


5.04            Suicide.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, the benefits otherwise provided herein shall not be payable if the Participant’s
death results from suicide, whether sane or insane, within two (2) years and three months after the date of the Participant’s
entry into the Plan.


 


ARTICLE VI


ADMINISTRATION


 


6.01            Committee
as Administrator. The Bank has appointed the Committee to administer the Plan. Any action by the Committee shall
be determined by a vote of a majority of its members. Either the Chairman or the Secretary may produce or execute any certificate
or other written action or direction on behalf of the Committee. The Chairman or any two (2) members may call meetings. A
majority of the members of the Committee at the time in office shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.


 


6.02            Appointment

and other persons, as the Bank deem necessary or appropriate for the proper administration of the Plan.


 


6.03            Administrative
Rules. The Administrator may adopt such rules of procedure as it deems desirable for the conduct of its affairs,
except to the extent that such rules conflict with the provisions of the Plan.


 


6.04            Duties.
The Administrator shall have the following rights, powers and duties:


 


(a)            The
decision of the Administrator in matters within its jurisdiction shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Bank and upon
any other person affected by such decision, subject to the claims procedure hereinafter set forth.


 


(b)            The
Administrator shall have the duty and authority to interpret and construe the provisions of the Plan, to decide any question that
may arise regarding the rights of employees, Participants and beneficiaries, and the amounts of their respective interests, to
adopt such rules and to exercise such powers as the Administrator may deem necessary for the administration of the Plan, and
to exercise any other rights, powers or privileges granted to the Administrator by the terms of the Plan. No benefit shall be payable
under the Plan unless the Administrator in its sole discretion determined that such benefit is due.


 


(c)            The
Administrator shall keep a record of any formal actions taken, and shall keep such other records and accounts as may be necessary
for the proper administration of the Plan. The Administrator shall be responsible for supplying such information and reports to
the Internal Revenue Service, the U.S. Department of Labor and the Participants as required by law.


 






    6


     


    

 


(d)            The
Administrator shall cause the principal provisions of the Plan to be communicated to the Participants, and a copy of the Plan and
other documents to be available at the principal office of the Bank for inspection by the Participants at reasonable times determined
by the Administrator.


 


(e)            The
Administrator shall periodically report to the Board, no less frequently than annually, with respect to the status of the Plan.


 


6.05            Fees.

shall be paid to any person for service on the Committee with respect to the administration of the Plan.


 


ARTICLE VII


CLAIMS PROCEDURE


 


Claims for benefits
under the Plan must be filed with the Administrator on forms supplied by the Bank. The Administrator shall be responsible for deciding
whether such claim is within the scope provided by the Plan (a “Covered Claim”) and for providing full and fair review
of the decision with respect to such claim. In addition, the Administrator shall provide a full and fair review in accordance with
ERISA and applicable U.S. Department of Labor Regulations, including without limitation Section 503 thereof.


 


Each Claimant or other
interested person shall file with the Administrator such pertinent information as the Administrator may specify, and in such manner
and form as the Administrator may specify and provide, and such person shall not have any rights or be entitled to any benefits
or further benefits hereunder, as the case may be, unless such information is filed by the Claimant or on behalf of the Claimant.
Each Claimant shall supply at such times and in such manner as may be required, written proof that the benefit is covered under
the Plan. If it is determined that a Claimant has not incurred a Covered Claim or if the Claimant shall fail to furnish such proof
as is requested, no benefits or no further benefits hereunder, as the case may be, shall be payable to such Claimant.


 


For all purposes under the Plan, the decision
with respect to a claim if no review is requested and the decision with respect to a claim if review is requested shall be final,
binding and conclusive on all interested parties as to matters relating to the Plan.


 


ARTICLE VIII

8.01            Amendment.
The Bank reserves the right to amend the Plan in any manner that it deems advisable by a resolution of the Board. No amendment

entitled in accordance with Article IV of the Plan.


 


8.02            Termination.
The Bank reserves the right to terminate the Plan at any time by resolution of the Board. No termination shall, without the consent

the Participant to receive a Supplemental Benefit to which the Participant has become entitled in accordance with Article IV
of the Plan. Any termination of the Plan shall be carried out in accordance with Code section 409A and Treasury Regulation section

If the Administrator determines, or concurs with a determination by a competent professional presented to it, that any person to
whom such benefit is payable is incompetent by reason of physical or mental disability, the Administrator may cause the payments
becoming due to such person to be made to another for his benefit. Payments made pursuant to this Section shall, as to such
payment, operate as a complete discharge of the Plan, the Bank and the Administrator.


 


9.03            Successors
and Assigns. The provisions of the Plan are binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Bank, its respective successors
and assigns, and the Participant and his beneficiaries, heirs, legal representatives, and assigns.


 


9.04            Limitation
of Rights. This Plan shall not be deemed to constitute a contract of employment between any Employer and any Participant
or employee (or be deemed consideration or an inducement for the employment of any Participant or employee). Nothing contained
in this Plan shall be deemed to give any Participant or employee the right to be retained in the service of any Employer or interfere
with the right of any Employer to discharge any Participant or employee at any time, regardless of the effect that such discharge
may have upon such Participant or employee under this Plan.


 


9.05            No
Funding of the Plan. Any liability of the Bank to any Participant with respect to any benefit payable hereunder
shall be based solely upon any contractual obligation created under the Plan. No obligation hereunder shall be deemed secured by
any pledge or encumbrance upon any specific assets of the Bank. No Participant shall have any rights under the Plan, other than
those of a general, unsecured creditor of the Bank. The Bank may reserve (through a “rabbi trust” or similar arrangement)
such funds as the Bank may determine is necessary to provide the benefits accrued under the Plan. Any funds the Bank so reserved
may be kept in cash, invested or reinvested. Any assets that may be segregated, reserved, or otherwise identified by the Bank for
the purpose of paying benefits under the Plan nevertheless remain general assets of the Bank (and subject to the claims of the
general creditors of the Bank).


 


9.06            Severability.
If any provision of the Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, such illegality or invalidity shall not affect the
remaining provisions of the Plan, but the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal or invalid provision had never
been included herein.

9.07            Notification
of Addresses. The Participant shall file with the Administrator, from time to time, in writing, the post office
address of the Participant, the post office address of each Beneficiary, and each change of post office address. Any communication,
statement or notice addressed to the last post office address filed with the Administrator (or if no such address was filed with
the Administrator, then to the last post office address of the Participant or beneficiary as shown on the Bank’s records)
shall be binding on the Participant and each beneficiary for all purposes of the Plan and neither the Administrator nor any Bank
shall be obliged to search for or ascertain the whereabouts of any Participant or beneficiary.


 


9.08            Receipt
and Release for Payments. Any payment to a Participant, spouse or beneficiary, or his or her legal representative,
guardian or committee, in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, shall, to the extent thereof, be in full satisfaction of
all claims hereunder against the Administrator or the Bank (either or whom may require such person, as a condition precedent to
payment, to execute a receipt and release of the Administrator and the Bank in a form determined by the Administrator and the Bank).


 


9.09            Headings.
The headings and subheadings of this Plan have been inserted for convenience of reference (and are to be ignored in any construction
of the provisions hereof).


 


9.10            Indemnification.
The Bank shall indemnify and hold harmless each person who may serve on the Committee from any and all claims, loss, damages, expenses
(including attorney’s fees) and liability (including any amounts paid in settlement) arising from any act or omission of
such person or persons, except when the same is judicially determined to be due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
such person.


 


9.11            Tax
Withholding. The Bank shall withhold from any payment made by it under the Plan such amount or amounts as may be
required for purposes of complying with the tax withholding or other provisions of the Code, the Social Security Act, as amended,
or any federal, state or local income or employment tax provision; or otherwise, for purposes of paying any estate, inheritance
or other tax attributable to any amounts payable hereunder.


 


9.12            Responsibility
for Legal Effect. Neither the Administrator nor the Bank makes any representations or warranties, express or implied,
or assumes any responsibility concerning the legal, tax, or other implications or effects of this Plan.


 


9.13            Successors,
Acquisitions, Mergers, Consolidations. The terms and conditions of the Plan inure to the benefit of, and bind, the
Bank and the Participants, and their successors, assigns and personal representatives.


 


9.14            Governing
Law. The Plan shall be subject to and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia to the
extent not preempted by the provisions of ERISA.


 


9.15            Bonding.
