 4. BASE SALARY: Executive shall receive Base Salary at the rate in effect for Executive as of May 1, 2011, payable in substantially equal installments no less frequently than monthly (less any
amounts withheld as required by law or pursuant to any benefits plan). At least annually, Bankshares shall review and, in its sole discretion, may increase Executive’s Base Salary. If Executive’s Base Salary is increased by Bankshares,

entertainment, parking and business meetings) made in pursuance and furtherance of the business and good will of Bankshares. 

6. INDEMNIFICATION: 
 (a) Bankshares, the Bank and any Subsidiary other than the Bank for which Executive provides services shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless from and against all liability and expense resulting from
(1) all acts or omissions of Executive while acting in the capacity of a director, officer, trustee, or fiduciary and/or employee of Bankshares, the Bank and any such Subsidiary during Executive’s employment as such director, officer,
and/or employee and (2) acts or omissions of Bankshares, the Bank and any such Subsidiary occurring or alleged to have occurred during or prior to Executive’s employment, on terms and conditions no less favorable to Executive than the
terms and conditions providing for indemnification of officers and directors under the Articles or Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws of Bankshares, the Bank and each such Subsidiary as in effect on the date of this Agreement. If the
Articles or Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws of Bankshares, the Bank and/or any such Subsidiary are hereafter amended to provide officers and directors with broader or greater rights of indemnification, Bankshares, the Bank and each such
Subsidiary acknowledge and agree that Executive shall be indemnified and held harmless under such broader or greater rights of indemnification and, further, that in no event shall Executive be entitled to any lesser rights of indemnification than
would be available to Executive under such Articles or Certificate of Incorporation and/or Bylaws on the date of this Agreement. 
 (b) To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law as in effect on the date of this Agreement and without abridging or limiting the right of indemnification provided under Section 6(a) above,
Bankshares, the Bank and each Subsidiary other than the Bank for which Executive provides services shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless from and against all liability and expense resulting from (1) all acts or omissions of Executive
while acting in the capacity of a director, officer, trustee, fiduciary and/or employee of Bankshares, the Bank and any such Subsidiary during Executive’s employment as such officer and director and (2) acts or omissions of Bankshares, the
Bank and any such Subsidiary occurring or alleged to have occurred during or prior to Executive’s employment. 
 (c) If
applicable laws relating to the indemnification of officers and directors (including, without limitation, the rules and regulations of the appropriate primary federal or state banking agency for Bankshares, the Bank and any Subsidiary other than the
Bank for which Executive provides services) are hereafter amended to provide officers and directors with broader or greater rights of indemnification than is provided under Section 6(a) or Section 6(b) above, Bankshares, the Bank and each
Subsidiary other than the Bank for which Executive provides services acknowledge and agree that Executive shall be indemnified and held harmless under such broader or greater rights of indemnification and, further, that in no event shall Executive
be entitled to any lesser rights of indemnification than are presently available to Executive under Section 6(a) or Section 6(b) above on the date of this Agreement. Bankshares, the Bank and Executive further acknowledge and agree that it
is the intention of the parties that Executive shall be entitled to indemnification as set forth under Section 6(a) and Section 6(b) 

  
 5 








 
above to the greatest extent possible under either the Articles or Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws of Bankshares, the Bank and each Subsidiary other than the Bank for which Executive
performs services or applicable law as in effect on the date of this Agreement or as hereafter amended from time to time to provide broader or greater rights of indemnification. 

(d) The Bank shall carry Directors and Officers Liability Insurance in such amounts as the Bank in its discretion deems appropriate, and
any payments made under such policy to Executive or on Executive’s behalf shall be offset against the indemnification obligation set forth in Section 6(a), Section 6(b) and Section 6(c) above. 

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnification provided by Section 6(a), Section 6(b) and Section 6(c) above shall
not apply, and Executive shall not be indemnified, with respect to any acts or omissions which constitute wanton or willful misconduct or willful gross negligence. The indemnity obligation set forth in this Section 6 shall be subject to the
prohibitions and limitations established by applicable law and as set forth in applicable regulations adopted by any federal or state bank regulatory agency having jurisdiction over Bankshares, the Bank or any Subsidiary other than the Bank for
which Executive performs services. 
 (f) The provisions of this Section 6 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

 7. TERMINATION: Executive’s employment under this Agreement may be terminated under any of the following
conditions. 
 (a) Disability: If Executive is unable to perform the essential functions of Executive’s job on a full-time
basis for a period of six (6) consecutive months (or for such shorter period ending with Executive’s eligibility for and receipt of long-term disability benefits under an insurance policy or employee benefit plan provided or made available
to Executive by Bankshares) by reason of illness or other physical or mental disability, Bankshares shall have the right to terminate Executive’s employment under this Agreement at the end of the applicable period by written notice thereof. If
Executive’s employment is so terminated, Executive shall be paid any salary and benefits to which Executive may be entitled until the end of the payroll period in which the date of termination occurs, and thereafter, Bankshares shall have no
further obligation for additional compensation and benefits under this Agreement. A condition of disability shall be determined by Bankshares on the basis of competent evidence. A written opinion of a licensed physician certified in his field of
specialization and acceptable to Bankshares, or Executive’s entitlement to or receipt of long-term disability benefits under any insurance policy or employee benefit plan provided or made available to Executive by Bankshares or under Federal
Social Security law, shall be conclusive evidence of disability. 
 (b) Death: In the event of Executive’s death during the
Term of this Agreement, Executive’s estate, legal representatives or named beneficiaries (as directed by Executive in writing) shall be paid compensation at the rate in effect at the time of Executive’s death for a period of one
(1) month after the date of Executive’s death and shall be paid for any accrued and unused paid time off. Such additional compensation and accrued and unused paid time off shall be paid in a single lump sum within thirty (30) days
from Executive’s date of death. 

  
 6 








 (c) Resignation By Executive: If Executive resigns or voluntarily leaves the employ of
Bankshares, other than under circumstances treated as resignation for good reason, then Executive shall be in breach of this Agreement and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of Bankshares to Executive shall terminate,
except for the obligation to pay any accrued and unpaid salary, and accrued and unused paid time off as of the date of such resignation. 
 (d) Termination For Cause: Bankshares may, in its sole discretion, by written notice to Executive terminate Executive’s employment immediately for breach upon the occurrence of any of the following:

 (1) Executive’s failure to follow or to cooperate in carrying out any of the policies of Bankshares or the Bank or the
directions of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer of Bankshares or any other executive officer of Bankshares or the Bank to whom Executive reports; 
 (2) Executive’s insubordination toward any member of the Board of Directors of Bankshares or the Bank, the Chief Executive Officer of Bankshares or any other executive officer of Bankshares or the
Bank to whom Executive reports; 
 (3) Continued and willful neglect by Executive of Executive’s duties for or on behalf
of Bankshares, the Bank or any Subsidiary other than the Bank for which Executive provides services; 
 (4) Willful misconduct
of Executive in connection with the performance of any of Executive’s duties, including, by way of example, but not limitation, misappropriation of funds or property of Bankshares, the Bank or a Subsidiary other than the Bank or a depositor
therein or borrower therefrom, or securing or attempting to secure personally any profit in connection with any transaction entered into on behalf of Bankshares, the Bank or Subsidiary other than the Bank to the prejudice of the Bank or its
Subsidiaries; 
 (5) Conduct by Executive which results in Executive’s suspension and/or temporary prohibition or removal
and/or permanent prohibition from participation in the conduct of the affairs of Bankshares, the Bank or any Subsidiary other than the Bank pursuant to the rules and regulations of the primary federal or state banking agency for Bankshares, the Bank
or the other Subsidiary or any other federal or state banking agency having regulatory jurisdiction over Bankshares, the Bank or the other Subsidiary; 
 (6) Conviction of Executive of a felony or any misdemeanor involving moral turpitude or Executive’s willful violation of any law, rule or regulation to which Bankshares, the Bank or other Subsidiary
for which Executive performs services is subject or of a final order or other formal administrative action entered into, by or imposed upon Bankshares, the Bank or any such Subsidiary; 

(7) Willful violation of any code of conduct or standards of ethics applicable to employees of Bankshares or the Bank that results in
material and demonstrable damage to the business or reputation of Bankshares or the Bank; or 

  
 7 








 (8) The issuance of a permanent injunction or similar remedy against Executive preventing
Executive from executing or performing all or part of this Agreement. 
 If Executive’s employment is terminated for cause
or Bankshares has cause for termination and Executive voluntarily resigns, Executive shall not be entitled to any further compensation or benefits under this Agreement other than payment for any accrued and unused paid time off. Moreover, nothing in
this Section 7 is intended to have any effect on any rights that are vested. 
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, except as “willful” may be otherwise defined by the rules and regulations of the primary federal or state banking agency for the Bank or Bank Subsidiary for which Executive performs services or any other federal or state banking
agency having regulatory jurisdiction over the Bank or Bank Subsidiary for which Executive performs services, (x) no act or failure to act on Executive’s part shall be considered “willful” unless done, or omitted to be done, by
Executive in bad faith and without reasonable belief that Executive’s action or omission was in the best interest of Bankshares, the Bank and/or each Bank Subsidiary for which Executive performs services, and (y) no failure to act on
Executive’s part shall be considered “willful” if such failure is a result of a condition of disability within the meaning of Section 7(a) of this Agreement. 

(e) Termination Without Cause: Bankshares may, in its sole discretion, by written notice to Executive terminate Executive’s
employment under this Agreement immediately without cause at any time. In the event of such termination: (i) Executive shall be paid any accrued and unused paid time off as of the date of termination, and (ii) Executive shall continue to
be paid, during the twelve (12) months that follow the date of termination, the Base Salary that Executive is entitled to receive as of the date Executive is terminated without cause. Nothing in this Section shall affect Executive’s rights
to receive any benefit which has been earned but not paid with respect to Executive’s performance prior to the date of such termination. Bankshares’ payment of the twelve (12) months of Base Salary described in this Section 7(e)
shall be contingent upon Executive’s executing the Release Agreement within thirty (30) days after the date of such termination, not revoking the Release Agreement, and complying with the terms of the Release Agreement. The salary
described in this Section 7(e) will be due Executive regardless of any subsequent employment attained by Executive which is not in violation of this Agreement or the Release Agreement. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7(e), Bankshares shall not terminate Executive’s employment without
cause (nor shall any decision previously made to terminate Executive’s employment without cause be effective) nor shall Bankshares, without cause, fail to renew this Agreement pursuant to Section 3 during any period of time when Bankshares
has knowledge that any person, entity or concern, whether acting independently, as part of a group or in concert with any other person, entity or concern, has taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a Change of Control of Bankshares until, in
the opinion of Bankshares, such person, entity or concern has abandoned or terminated such efforts to effect a Change of Control. Any good faith determination by Bankshares that any such person, concern or entity has abandoned or terminated such
efforts to effect a Change of Control shall be conclusive and binding on Executive. Such determination shall be promptly communicated to Executive in writing by Bankshares. 

  
 8 








 (f) Resignation For Good Reason: 

(1) Executive may resign for good reason upon the occurrence of any of the following conditions: 

(a) A reduction by Bankshares of Executive’s Base Salary; or 

(b) Any material breach of this Agreement by Bankshares; 
 Executive’s continued employment shall not constitute consent to, or a waiver of rights, with respect to, any act or failure to act constituting good reason. 

(2) Resignation for good reason shall be effected by delivering to Bankshares, within twelve (12) months after the occurrence of
one of the conditions described above, a written notice specifying a date for termination of employment (a) which is not less than thirty (30) days after the date of the notice, and (b) which is not more than ninety (90) days
after the date of the notice. The notice shall also state that Executive is resigning for good reason as contemplated by this Section 7(f) and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for
resignation for good reason hereunder. If within the notice period, Bankshares cures or corrects any circumstances providing a basis for resignation for good reason, Executive shall not be entitled to resign for good reason. 

(3) If Executive resigns for good reason at any time after the date of this Agreement (other than a resignation for good reason during
the Term after a Change of Control, which shall be governed by Section 8 below), then Executive shall be paid any accrued and unused paid time off as of the date of Executive’s termination of employment, and Executive shall continue to be
paid, during the twelve (12) months that follow the date of Executive’s termination of employment, the Base Salary that Executive is entitled to receive as of the date of the notice announcing Executive’s resignation; provided that
nothing in this Section 7(f) shall affect Executive’s rights to receive any benefit which has been earned but not paid with respect to Executive’s performance prior to the date of termination. Bankshares’ payment of the twelve
(12) months of Base Salary described in this Section 7(f) shall be contingent upon Executive’s executing the Release Agreement within thirty (30) days after the date of such termination, not revoking the Release Agreement, and
complying with the terms of the Release Agreement. The salary described in this Section 7(f) will be due Executive regardless of any subsequent employment attained by Executive which is not in violation of this Agreement or the Release
Agreement. 
 8. CHANGE OF CONTROL: Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Agreement, upon the occurrence of a
Change of Control, the following provisions shall apply: 
 (a) The Term shall be extended for a period of two (2) years
after the date on which the Change of Control occurs. 
 (b) If during the Term, as extended pursuant to Section 8(a),
either Executive’s employment is terminated without cause or Executive resigns for good reason, in either case, Bankshares shall provide to Executive the following severance benefits: 

(1) Bankshares shall pay to Executive, in lieu of the compensation specified in Sections 7(e) and 7(f), severance pay (subject to
any applicable payroll or other taxes required to be withheld) equal to eighteen (18) months’ Base Salary at the rate then in effect, or if greater, in effect immediately preceding the Change of Control. Severance pay shall be paid in cash
(except to the extent that Executive and Bankshares agree that it shall be paid in other property) and shall be paid in one lump sum on or before Executive’s last day of employment. 

  
 9 








 (2) Bankshares shall pay to Executive in a lump sum on or before Executive’s last day
of employment the amount of Executive’s accrued and unused paid time off determined on the basis of his Base Salary then in effect, or if greater, in effect immediately preceding the Change of Control. 

(3) If Executive collects any part or all of the severance pay and paid time off provided under this Section 8 by or through a
lawyer or lawyers, following a Change of Control and a dispute with Bankshares regarding the terms of this Section 8 and any related provision of this Agreement, Bankshares shall pay all costs of any such collection or enforcement, including
reasonable legal fees and other out of pocket expenses incurred by Executive, up to that point when Bankshares offered to settle the dispute for an amount equal to the amount that Executive is entitled to recover. 

(4) The payments described in this Section 8 shall be due Executive regardless of any subsequent employment obtained by Executive.

 9. NONCOMPETITION, NONSOLICITATION AND NONDISCLOSURE: 

(a) Non- Competition: Except as otherwise provided in Section 9(e) below, during the Term and the Restricted Period,
Executive shall not: 
 (1) Provide services to a competitor of Bankshares or the Bank if such services are the same as or
similar to the services performed by Executive for Bankshares, the Bank or a Subsidiary other than the Bank. 
 (2) Provide
services to a competitor of Bankshares or the Bank if these services involve the supervision or management of employees or other agents who provide services which are the same as or similar to the services performed by Executive for Bankshares, the
Bank or a Subsidiary other than the Bank. 
 (3) Provide services to a competitor of Bankshares or the Bank if Executive’s
performance of such services would be rendered less difficult through Executive’s use, misappropriation, or disclosure of Bankshares’, the Bank’s or any Subsidiary other than the Bank’s confidential information, proprietary
information, or trade secret information to which Executive had access during Executive’s employment with Bankshares, the Bank or a Subsidiary other than the Bank. 
 The restrictions contained in this Section 9(a) shall only prohibit Executive from providing services in South Hampton Roads (that is, the cities of Norfolk, Portsmouth, Chesapeake, Virginia Beach
and Suffolk, Virginia) for a business or entity which has a location within South Hampton Roads and competes with Bankshares or the Bank. 

  
 10 









 (b) Non-Solicitation of Employees: Except as otherwise provided in Section 9(e)
below, during the Term and the Restricted Period, Executive shall not induce or attempt to induce any employee of Bankshares, the Bank or any Subsidiary other than the Bank to leave such employee’s position with Bankshares, the Bank or any
Subsidiary other than the Bank to become associated with a business which competes with Bankshares, the Bank or any Subsidiary other than the Bank. 
 (c) Non-Solicitation of Customers: Except as otherwise provided in Section 9(e) below, during the Term and the Restricted Period, Executive shall not: 

(1) Induce or attempt to induce any Protected Customer of Bankshares, the Bank or any Subsidiary other than the Bank to cease
transacting business with Bankshares, the Bank or any Subsidiary other than the Bank. 
 (2) Induce or attempt to induce any
Protected Customer of Bankshares, the Bank or any Subsidiary other than the Bank to transfer any part of such Protected Customer’s business from Bankshares, the Bank or any Subsidiary other than the Bank to a competing depository institution.

 (d) Non-Disclosure: During the Term and for twelve (12) months after the end of the Restricted Period, Executive
shall hold in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit of Bankshares and its Subsidiaries all secret or confidential information, knowledge or data relating to Bankshares, the Bank and Subsidiaries other than the Bank and their respective businesses,
which shall have been obtained by Executive during Executive’s employment by Bankshares, the Bank and any Subsidiary other than the Bank and which shall not be or become public knowledge (other than by acts by Executive or representatives of
Executive in violation of this Agreement). During the Term and for twelve (12) months after the end of the Restricted Period, Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of as applicable, Bankshares, the Bank and such other
Subsidiary or as may otherwise be required by law or legal process, communicate or divulge any such information, knowledge or data to anyone other than Bankshares, the Bank and such other Subsidiary and those designated by them. After the end of the
Restricted Period, the existence and identity of the customers and employees of Bankshares, the Bank, and any Subsidiaries other than the Bank shall not constitute secret or confidential information, knowledge or data. 

(e) The provisions contained in Sections 9(a)-(c) shall not apply and shall have no force and effect at any time following a
Change of Control. During any period in which the provisions of Sections 9(a)-(c) are effective, those provisions shall not preclude Executive from holding any publicly traded stock provided Executive does not acquire any stock interest in
any one company in excess of one percent (1%) of the outstanding voting stock of that company. 
 (f) The parties agree
that the restrictions contained in this Section 9 are reasonable and fair. If Executive competes in violation of the terms of this Section 9, the parties agree that Bankshares will be irreparably harmed without an adequate remedy at law.


  
 11 









 
Accordingly, Executive acknowledges that if he breaches or threatens to breach any provision of this Section 9, Bankshares shall be entitled to an injunction, both preliminary and permanent,
restraining Executive from such breach or threatened breach, but such injunctive relief shall not preclude Bankshares from pursuing all other legal or equitable remedies arising out of such a breach. 

10. REFORMATION: The parties have attempted to limit Executive’s right to compete only to the extent necessary to protect
Bankshares, the Bank and Subsidiaries other than the Bank from unfair competition. The parties recognize, however, that reasonable people may differ in making such a determination. Consequently, the parties hereby agree that, if the scope or
enforceability of a restrictive covenant set forth in Section 9 is in any way disputed at any time, a court or other trier of fact may modify and reform such provision to substitute such other terms as are reasonable to protect the legitimate
business interests of Bankshares, the Bank and Subsidiaries other than the Bank. 
 11. CERTAIN REPAYMENTS REQUIRED:
Anything herein to the contrary, Executive shall be obligated to repay to Bankshares, the Bank or Subsidiary other than the Bank for which Executive performs services, as applicable, any of the following amounts under the enumerated circumstances:

 (a) Any payments of Executive’s Base Salary made after Executive’s termination of employment pursuant to
Section 7(e) or Section 7(f) if prior to Executive’s termination of employment, Cause existed with respect to Executive, or if prior to or after Executive’s termination of employment, Executive violated or violates any of the
restrictions contained in Section 9 (other than any restriction that is inapplicable following a Change of Control pursuant to Section 9(e)). 
 (b) In the case of any bonus, incentive, commission or other compensation payment that was based in whole or in part on inaccurate data or factual assumptions (such as a performance bonus based on
inaccurate financial data), the portion of the payment that is equal to the excess amount that Executive would not have received except for the inaccuracy. 
 Any amount to be repaid to Bankshares, the Bank or any such Subsidiary by Executive pursuant to this Section 11 shall be paid in a single lump sum payment in immediately available funds not later

 17. COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL STATUTES AND REGULATIONS: 

(a) If Executive is suspended and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the conduct of the affairs of Bankshares, the Bank or
any Bank Subsidiary by a notice served under Section 8(e)(3) or (g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. Section 1818(e)(3) and (g)(1)), Bankshares’ obligations to Executive under this Agreement shall be suspended as of
the date of service of any such notice unless stayed by appropriate proceedings. If the charges in the notice are dismissed, Bankshares may in its discretion (i) pay Executive all or part of the compensation withheld while its obligations under
this Agreement were suspended, and (ii) reinstate (in whole or in part) any of its obligations which were suspended. 
 (b)
If Executive is removed and/or permanently prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Bank’s or a Bank Subsidiary’s affairs by an order issued under Section 8(e)(4) or (g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C.
Section 1818(e)(4) or (g)(1)), all obligations of Bankshares under this Agreement pertaining to the Bank or applicable Bank Subsidiary shall terminate as of the effective date of the order, but vested rights of the parties hereto shall not be
affected. 
 (c) If the Bank or a Subsidiary other than the Bank for which Executive performs services is in default (as defined
in Section 3(x)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act 12 U.S.C. Section 1813(x)(1)), all obligations under this Agreement shall terminate as of the date of default, but this Section 17(c) shall not affect any vested rights of the
parties hereto shall not be affected. 
 (d) All obligations under this Agreement pertaining to the Bank or a Subsidiary other
than the Bank for which Executive performs services shall be terminated, except to the extent that it is determined that continuation of the contract is necessary to the continued operation of the Bank or other Subsidiary (i) by the appropriate
federal banking agency, at the time the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation enters into an agreement to provide assistance to or on behalf of the Bank or other Subsidiary under the authority contained in Section 13(c) of the Federal Deposit
Insurance Act (18 U.S.C. Section 1823(c)); or (ii) by the appropriate federal banking agency, at the time such agency approves a supervisory merger to resolve problems related to operation of the Bank or other Subsidiary or when the Bank
or other Subsidiary is determined by such agency to be in an unsafe or unsound condition; but vested rights of the parties hereto shall not be affected. 
 18. HEADINGS: Descriptive headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any provision hereof. 

19. LEGAL CONFLICT: In the event of any conflict between any of the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of any
applicable statutes or regulations, as such statutes or regulations are in effect as of the date of this Agreement, the provisions of such statutes or regulations in effect as of the date of this Agreement shall control. 

  
 14 









 20. SUPERSESSION OF PRIOR AGREEMENTS: Except as provided in Section 22, this
Agreement supersedes all prior agreements, either expressed or implied, between the parties hereto with respect to the employment of Executive. 
 21. INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SECTION 409A/CONTINUATION OF BENEFITS/REIMBURSEMENTS: This Agreement is intended to and shall comply with Section 409A of the Code. All references to a termination of
employment and separation from service shall mean and be administered to comply with the definition of “separation from service” in Section 409A of the Code. 
 All reimbursements provided under this Agreement shall comply with Section 409A of the Code and shall be subject to the following requirements: 

(a) The amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, during Executive’s taxable year may not affect the expenses eligible for
reimbursement to be provided in another taxable year, and 
 (b) The reimbursement of an eligible expense must be made by
December 31 following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred. 
 The right to reimbursement is not subject to liquidation or
exchange for another benefit. 
 If Executive is a “specified employee” (as defined under Section 409A of the Code) at the time
of separation from service, to the extent that any amount payable under this Agreement constitutes “deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code (and is not otherwise excepted from Section 409A of the Code coverage by
virtue of being considered “separation pay” or a “short term deferral” or otherwise) and is payable to Executive based upon a separation from service (other than death or “disability” as defined under Section 409A
of the Code), such amount shall not be paid until the first day following the six-month anniversary of the employee’s separation from service. 
 Any right to a series of installment payments shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. 

Payment of any accrued and unused paid time off, unless expressly provided otherwise herein shall be made in a single lump sum within 30 days of
separation from service. 
 22. EESA RESTRICTIONS: Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this
Agreement shall be subject to the RESTRICTIONS RELATING TO EMERGENCY ECONOMIC STABILIZATION ACT OF 2008 attached hereto as Exhibit B. 

  
 15 









 23. ASSURANCE OF FUTURE COOPERATION/UNILATERAL AMENDMENT: Executive agrees that this
Agreement is subject to amendment at any time in order to comply with laws that are applicable to Bankshares and the Bank (including regulations and rules relating to any governmental program in which Bankshares or the Bank may participate), and
agrees that Bankshares and the Bank may amend this Agreement unilaterally as they deem appropriate to ensure this compliance. 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement effective as of the date first above written.

 EXHIBIT B 
 CERTAIN LIMITATIONS RELATING TO 
 EMERGENCY ECONOMIC STABILIZATION ACT OF
2008 
 WHEREAS, on September 25, 2009, Bankshares entered into a letter agreement with the United States Department of
the Treasury (the “UST”) pursuant to which Bankshares issued shares of preferred stock and the UST purchased from Bankshares the shares of preferred stock (the “Program”); and 

WHEREAS, Bankshares’ continued participation in the Program is subject to compliance with the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act
of 2008, as amended (“EESA”), and the rules, regulations, guidance or other requirements issued thereunder (collectively, along with the EESA, the “EESA Restrictions”), which among other things require that employment agreements
and other agreements with certain employees (the “Covered Employees”) of participants in the Program (such participants and certain of their subsidiaries are defined in, and for purposes of the EESA Restrictions constitute, “TARP
Recipients”) contain and otherwise remain subject to certain limitations in order to comply with the EESA Restrictions; and 
 WHEREAS, the limitations contemplated under the EESA Restrictions apply to certain employment, compensation, bonus, incentive, severance, retention and other employee benefit plans, arrangements, policies
and agreements (including so called “golden parachute” agreements), whether or not in writing, that Covered Employees may have with Bankshares and/or the Bank (each of which constitutes a TARP Recipient under the EESA Restrictions) or in
which Covered Employees participate and as they relate to the period during which the UST holds any equity or debt securities of Bankshares acquired through the Program (collectively, along with the Agreement, the “Benefit Plans”); and

 WHEREAS, Executive currently is, and/or from time to time during the period in which the UST holds any equity or debt
securities of Bankshares acquired through the Program may be, a Covered Employee subject to the EESA Restrictions; 
 NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and obligations set forth herein, and as consideration for the benefits that Executive has received and will receive as a result of Bankshares’ participation in the Program, the Bank and
Executive agree that the following limitations on the Benefit Plans set forth in this Exhibit B (collectively, the “Specified Benefit Limitations”) shall apply during any period that both Executive is a Covered Employee and
Bankshares is subject to the EESA Restrictions: 
  

	 	1.	Executive shall not receive any golden parachute payment or other payment, accrual or benefit, whether under the Agreement, any Incentive Stock Option Agreement to
which Executive is a party or otherwise pursuant to any Benefit Plans, that is prohibited by the EESA Restrictions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and notwithstanding anything in the Benefit Plans to the contrary, Executive shall
not be entitled to and shall not otherwise receive the benefit of any acceleration in the exercisability (or accelerated vesting) of any outstanding stock options or other equity awards of Bankshares to the extent such acceleration is
prohibited by the EESA Restrictions. 


  
 B-1









  

	 	2.	If either the Bank or Bankshares notifies Executive in writing that Executive has received payments from it in violation of the EESA Restrictions, Executive hereby
agrees to repay to the applicable company the aggregate amount of such payments no later than fifteen (15) business days following receipt of such notice. 


 

	 	3.	The Benefit Plans, with respect to Executive, are hereby amended to the extent necessary so as to be consistent with the EESA Restrictions. 


 

	 	4.	These Specified Benefit Limitations are intended to, and shall be interpreted, administered and construed to, comply with the EESA Restrictions (and, to the maximum
extent consistent with the preceding, to permit operation of the Benefit Plans in accordance with their terms before giving effect to these provisions.) 

 These Specified Benefit Limitations shall be effective during any and all period(s) (but only during such period(s)) that both Bankshares and Executive are subject to the EESA Restrictions. (Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, and for purposes of clarity, Executive acknowledges and agrees that (i) at certain times during which Bankshares is subject to the EESA Restrictions, Executive will be or may be a Covered Employee and
likewise subject to the EESA Restrictions, while at other times during which Bankshares is subject to the EESA Restrictions, Executive will not or may not be a Covered Employee subject to the EESA Restrictions; but (ii) any payment, accrual or
benefit to or for the benefit of Executive shall be prohibited by or otherwise subject to these Specified Benefit Limitations if at the applicable time thereof Executive is a Covered Employee subject to the EESA Restrictions, regardless of whether
the Executive has not in the past been and/or may not in the future be a Covered Employee subject to the EESA Restrictions.) Further, to the extent permitted by the EESA Restrictions and applicable law, Executive’s benefits under the Agreement
and any other Benefit Plans shall accrue and shall be paid to Executive at a future date when and if so permitted by the EESA Restrictions and applicable law (“Accrued Payments”), provided, that any such Accrued Payments will not accrue
interest. 
 To the extent not subject to federal law, these Specified Benefit Limitations will be governed by and construed in
accordance with the law of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Except as amended herein, the Benefit Plans shall remain in full force and effect.
