     In addition to the benefits available under the Employees'  Retirement Plan
     of  Southwest  Virginia  Savings  Bank,  FSB,  as the  same has been or may
     hereafter be amended or restated,  or any  successor  thereto  (hereinafter
     referred  to as  the  "Qualified  Plan"),  and  notwithstanding  any  other
     agreements  between the  parties,  the savings  bank hereby  establishes  a
     non-qualified plan to provide  supplemental  retirement benefits commencing
     the first month after the Employee  retires,  dies or otherwise  terminates
     her  employment  due to disability or change of control or ownership of the
     savings bank,  whichever  occurs first,  and continuing as hereinafter  set
     forth.

2.   Retirement Date
     ---------------

     The Normal  Retirement  Date of the Employee  shall be the first day of the
     month  coinciding  with or next  following  the date on which the  Employee
     attains the age of sixty-five (65). However, the Employee may elect to take
     an early retirement. The Early Retirement Date of the Employee shall be the
     first day of the month  coinciding with or next following the date on which
     the Employee attains the age of fifty-five (55) and completes  fifteen (15)
     years of service with the savings bank.  Furthermore,  the Employee, at the
     request of the savings bank, may remain in the active employ of the savings
     bank after her Normal  Retirement  Date for such  period or periods as from
     time to time shall be mutually  agreed upon. In the event that the Employee
     continues her employment with the savings bank beyond her Normal Retirement
     Date,  her  Delayed  Retirement  Date  shall be the  first day of the month
     coinciding with or next following the actual date the Employee retires from

     months a Supplemental  Retirement Benefit determined according to whichever
     shall be applicable of subparagraphs (a), (b) or (c) hereof.

     (a)  If the Employee has remained continuously in the employ of the savings
          bank until her Normal  Retirement  Date, the  Supplemental  Retirement
          Benefit to which she will be  entitled  pursuant  to this  Paragraph 3
          shall be an amount equal to (1) minus (2) where

               average salary as defined in the Qualified Plan; and where

          (2)  is  an  "adjusted   Pension   Benefit"  which  is  the  actuarial
               equivalent of the normal form of benefit under the Qualified Plan
               payable in the form of a life annuity in monthly  installments to
               the Employee  with a provision  that if the  Employee  should die
               after the commencement of the monthly installments but before two
               hundred forty (240)  installments  have fallen due, the remainder
               of such two hundred  forty (240)  monthly  installments  would be
               paid to the Employee's beneficiaries.

The Supplemental  Retirement Benefit  determined  according to the terms of this

monthly installments have been paid.

     (b)  If the Employee elects to take an early  retirement,  the Supplemental

     ----------------------------

     If the  Employee  shall  die  prior  to her  Normal  Retirement  Date,  her

     be entitled to receive,  in the manner  specified in subparagraph 4 (b) and

5.   Beneficiary of Death Benefit
     ----------------------------

     In the event that the Employee shall die prior to receipt of any benefit to
     which he is  entitled  hereunder,  or of all such  benefits,  any  benefits
     remaining  unpaid shall be paid to such beneficiary or beneficiaries as the
     Employee may designate by filing with the savings bank a notice in writing,
     but in the absence of any such  designation,  such unpaid benefits shall be
     so paid to her  surviving  spouse,  if any.  If the unpaid  amounts are not
     fully  paid  out  to  the  Employee's  designated  beneficiaries  or to her
     surviving  spouse,  then the balance remaining unpaid shall be computed and
     paid in single lump sum to the Employee's estate.

6.   Installment Payment of Death Benefit
     ------------------------------------

     Whenever the Employee's beneficiaries,  other than her estate, shall become
     entitled  to receive any benefit  hereunder,  the benefit  shall be paid to
     such beneficiaries in monthly installments.

     (a)  in the event that no monthly  installment  payments  have  theretofore
          commenced to the Employee, over a period of sixty (60) months; or

     (b)  in  the  event  that  payment  of  monthly   installments  shall  have
          theretofore commenced to Employee, and two hundred forty (240) monthly
          installments  have not fallen due, for the balance of the period until
          the  remainder of such two hundred  forty (240)  monthly  installments
          have been paid.

7.   Non-Assignable Rights
     ---------------------

     Except as otherwise  provided by this Agreement,  it is agreed that neither
     the Employee nor her spouse, nor other beneficiary, shall have any right to
     commute,  sell,  assign,  transfer or otherwise convey the right to receive
     any payments hereunder,  which payments and the right thereto are expressly
     declared to be non-assignable and non-transferable.

8.   Independence of Agreement
     -------------------------

     The benefits  payable under this Agreement  shall be independent of, and in
     addition  to, any other  employment  agreement  that may exist from time to
     time between the parties hereto, or any other  compensation  payable by the
     savings bank to the Employee,  whether as salary, bonus, or otherwise. This
     Agreement  shall not be deemed  to  constitute  a  contract  of  employment
     between the parties  hereto,  nor shall any provision  hereof  restrict the
     right of the savings bank to discharge the Employee, or

                                       20
<PAGE>



     restrict  the right of the Employee to terminate  his  employment  with the
     savings bank.

9.   Non-Secured Promise
     -------------------

     The rights of the Employee under this  Agreement and of any  beneficiary of
     the Employee shall be solely those of an unsecured  creditor of the savings
     bank.  Any  insurance  policy or any other  asset  acquired  or held by the
     savings bank in  connection  with the  liabilities  assumed by it hereunder
     shall not, except as otherwise expressly provided, be deemed to be security
     for the  performance of the  obligations of the savings bank, but shall be,
     and remain, a general, unpledged, unrestricted asset of the savings bank.

10.  Change of Business Form
     -----------------------

     The  savings  bank agrees  that it will not merge or  consolidate  with any
     other corporation or organization,  or permit its business activities to be
     taken  over  by any  organization,  unless  and  until  the  succeeding  or
     continuing  corporation or other  organization  shall expressly  assume the
     rights and obligations of the savings bank as herein set forth. The savings
     bank further  agrees that it will not cease doing  business  activities  or
     terminate  its  existence  other  than  as  heretofore  set  forth  in this
     Paragraph 10,  without  having made adequate  provision for  fulfilling its
     obligations  hereunder.  In the event of any  default  with  respect to the
     provisions  of this  Paragraph  10,  the  Employee  (or  other  obligee  or
     obligees)  shall have a continuing  lien on all the savings  bank's assets,
     including already transferred assets, until such default be corrected.

11.  Amendment of Agreement
     ----------------------

     This  Agreement  may be revoked or amended in whole or in part by a writing
     signed by both of the parties hereto.
