for termination occurring under Article 5, this Agreement may be terminated solely by a written agreement signed by the Bank and by the Officer.



---

7.2 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall bind the Officer, the Bank, and their beneficiaries,
survivors, executors, successors, administrators, and transferees.

7.3 No Guarantee of Employment. This Agreement is not an
employment policy or contract. It does not give the Officer the right to remain an employee of the Bank, nor does it interfere with the Banks right to discharge the Officer. It also does not require the Officer to remain an employee nor
interfere with the Officers right to terminate employment at any time.

7.4 Non-Transferability. Benefits under this Agreement
cannot be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, attached, or encumbered in any manner.

7.5 Successors; Binding Agreement. The Bank
will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Bank, by an assumption agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the
Officer, to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Bank would be required to perform this Agreement if no such succession had occurred. The Banks failure to obtain an assumption
agreement before effectiveness of any such succession shall be a breach of this Agreement and shall entitle the Officer to the Change-in-Control benefit provided in Section 2.4.

7.6 Tax Withholding. The Bank shall withhold any taxes that are required to be withheld from the benefits provided under this Agreement.

7.7 Applicable Law. This Agreement and all rights hereunder shall be governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, except to
the extent preempted by the laws of the United States of America.

7.8 Unfunded Arrangement. The Officer and Beneficiary are general
unsecured creditors of the Bank for the payment of benefits under this Agreement. The benefits represent the mere promise by the Bank to pay benefits. Rights to benefits are not subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer,
assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment, or garnishment by creditors. Any insurance on the Officers life is a general asset of the Bank to which the Officer and Beneficiary have no preferred or secured claim.

7.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Split Dollar Agreement attached as Addendum A constitute the entire agreement between the Bank and
the Officer concerning the subject matter hereof. No rights are granted to the Officer under this Agreement other than those specifically set forth herein. This Agreement supersedes and replaces in its entirety the January 25, 2002 Executive
Indexed Retirement Agreement, and from and after the Effective Date of this Agreement the January 25, 2002 Executive Indexed Retirement Agreement shall be of no further force or effect.

7.10 Severability. If for any reason any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any other provision of this
Agreement not held invalid, and each such other provision shall continue in full force and effect to the full extent consistent with law. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid in part, such invalidity shall not affect the remainder of
the provision not held invalid, and the remainder of such provision together with all other provisions of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect to the full extent consistent with law.



---

7.11 Headings. Caption headings and subheadings herein are included solely for convenience of
reference and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.

7.12 Notices. All notices,
requests, demands, and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if delivered by hand or mailed, certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, with postage prepaid. Unless otherwise
changed by notice, notice shall be properly addressed to the Officer if addressed to the address of the Officer on the books and records of the Bank at the time of the delivery of such notice, and properly addressed to the Bank if addressed to the
Board of Directors, MidCarolina Bank, 3101 South Church Street, Burlington, North Carolina 27215.

7.13 Payment of Legal Fees. The
Bank is aware that after a Change in Control management of the Bank could cause or attempt to cause the Bank to refuse to comply with its obligations under this Agreement, or could institute or cause or attempt to cause the Bank to institute
litigation seeking to have this Agreement declared unenforceable, or could take or attempt to take other action to deny Officer the benefits intended under this Agreement. In these circumstances, the purpose of this Agreement would be frustrated. It
is the intention of the Bank that the Officer not be required to incur the expenses associated with the enforcement of his or her rights under this Agreement, whether by litigation or other legal action, because the cost and expense thereof would
substantially detract from the benefits intended to be granted to the Officer hereunder. It is the intention of the Bank that the Officer not be forced to negotiate settlement of his or her rights under this Agreement under threat of incurring
expenses. Accordingly, if after a Change in Control occurs it appears to the Officer that (a) the Bank has failed to comply with any of its obligations under this Agreement, or (b) the Bank or any other person has taken any action to
declare this Agreement void or unenforceable, or instituted any litigation or other legal action designed to deny, diminish, or to recover from the Officer the benefits intended to be provided to the Officer hereunder, the Bank irrevocably
authorizes the Officer from time to time to retain counsel of his or her choice, at the expense of the Bank as provided in this Section 7.13, to represent the Officer in connection with the initiation or defense of any litigation or other legal
action, whether by or against the Bank or any director, officer, stockholder, or other person affiliated with the Bank, in any jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any existing or previous attorney-client relationship between the Bank and any counsel
chosen by the Officer under this Section 7.13, the Bank irrevocably consents to the Officer entering into an attorney-client relationship with that counsel, and the Bank and the Officer agree that a confidential relationship shall exist between
the Officer and that counsel. The fees and expenses of counsel selected from time to time by the Officer as provided in this section shall be paid or reimbursed to the Officer by the Bank on a regular, periodic basis upon presentation by the Officer
of a statement or statements prepared by such counsel in accordance with such counsels customary practices, up to a maximum aggregate amount of $50,000, whether suit be brought or not, and whether or not incurred in trial, bankruptcy, or
appellate proceedings. The Banks obligation to pay the Officers legal fees provided by this Section 7.13 operates separately from and in addition to any legal fee reimbursement obligation the Bank may have with the Officer under any
separate employment, severance, or other agreement between the Officer and the Bank.

7.14 Termination or Modification of Agreement
Because of Changes in Law, Rules or Regulations.The Bank is entering into this Agreement on the assumption that certain existing tax laws, rules, and regulations will continue in effect in their current form. If that assumption materially
changes

Termination benefit) that exists at the end of the year preceding the year in which Early Termination or Disability occurs, using a standard discount rate (6.50%). The Early Termination and Disability benefits continue for the Officers
lifetime and are included for illustrative purposes only.

For each consecutive 12-month period of full-time employment with
the Bank, the Officer becomes 10% vested in the Early Termination benefit, until the Officer is 100% vested after ten consecutive years of full-time employment. For this purpose, the Officer is given credit for years of service predating the Salary
Continuation Agreement. Vesting affects the Early Termination benefit only, not the disability benefit or other benefits. The Officers full-time employment with the Bank began on January 6, 1997.

|(3) | Projected retirement occurs on August 4, 2026, with the first normal monthly retirement benefit being paid on September 1, 2026.
