TO THE

LOWCOUNTRY NATIONAL BANK

EXECUTIVE DEFERRED COMPENSATION AGREEMENT

FOR

GARY HORN



THIS THIRD AMENDMENT is adopted this 17th day of December, 2008, effective as of January 1, 2009, by and between CBC National Bank (formerly known as and currently doing business as Lowcountry National Bank), a nationally-chartered commercial bank with offices located in Beaufort, South Carolina (the Company), and Gary Horn (the Executive).



The Company and the Executive executed the Executive Deferred Fee Agreement on January 22, 2004, which has been amended twice since such date (the Agreement).



The undersigned hereby amend the Agreement for the purpose of bringing the Agreement into compliance with the final regulations Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.  Therefore, the following changes shall be made:



Section 1.1 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following:



1.1

Change of Control means, with respect to the Company or Coastal Banking Company, Inc., a change in the ownership of a corporation as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(v).



Section 1.11a of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following:



1.11a

Specified Employee means a key employee (as defined in Code Section 416(i) without regard to Code Section 416(i)(5)) of any member of the Service Recipient, any stock of which is publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise as of the date of the Executives Termination of Employment. For this purpose, a Executive is a key employee if the Executive meets the requirements of Code Section 416(i)(1)(A)(i), (ii), or (iii) (applied in accordance with the regulations thereunder and disregarding Code Section 416(i)(5)) at any time during the twelve (12) month period ending on December 31.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Executive is a key employee determined under the preceding sentence, the Executive will be deemed to be a Specified Employee for the period commencing as of April 1 following such December 31 and through the succeeding March 31 or as otherwise required by Code Section 409A.

The following Section 1.11b shall be added to the Agreement immediately following Section 1.11a



1.11b

Service Recipient means the Company and each business entity that, together with the Company, constitutes the service recipient as defined in Code Section 409A and the regulations thereunder.



Section 1.12 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following:



1.12

Termination of Employment means the termination of the service relationship between a Executive and the Service Recipient for any reason which constitutes a separation from service under Code Section 409A.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the service relationship between a Executive and the Service Recipient is considered to remain intact while the Executive is on military leave, sick leave or other bona fide leave of absence if there is a reasonable expectation that the Executive will return to perform services for the Service Recipient and the period of such leave does not exceed six months, or if longer, so long as the individual retains a right to return to service with the Service Recipient under applicable law or contract.  Whether the Executive has terminated his service relationship with the Service Recipient will be determined by the Service Recipient based on whether it is reasonably anticipated by the Service Recipient and the Executive that the Executive will permanently cease providing services to the Service Recipient or that the services to be performed by the Executive will permanently decrease to no more than 20% of the average level of bona fide services performed as a Executive over the immediately preceding 36-month period or such shorter period during which the Executive was performing services for the Service Recipient.  If a leave of absence occurs during such 36-month or shorter period which is not considered a Termination of Employment, unpaid leaves of absence shall be disregarded and the level of services provided during any paid leave of absence shall be presumed to be the level of services required to receive the compensation paid with respect to such leave of absence.



Section 1.15 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following:



1.15

Unforeseeable Emergency means a severe financial hardship of the Executive, the Executives spouse, the Executives beneficiary, or the Executives dependent (as defined in Code Section 152, without regard to Code Sections 152(b)(1), (b)(2), and (d)(1)(B)); loss of the Executives property due to casualty (including the need to rebuild a home following damage to a home not otherwise covered by insurance); or other similar extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstance arising as a result of events beyond the control of the Executive.



The phraseTermination of Service in Section 4.3 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced by the phraseTermination of Employment.

(3)

no payments in liquidation of the Agreement are made within twelve (12) months of the date the Company takes all necessary action to irrevocably terminate and liquidate the Agreement other than payments that would be payable under the terms of the Agreement if the action to terminate and liquidate the Agreement had not occurred;

(4)

all payments are made within twenty-four (24) months of the date the Company takes all necessary action to irrevocably terminate and liquidate the Agreement; and

(5)

no member of the Service Recipient adopts a new plan that would be aggregated under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(c) with any plan terminated and liquidated pursuant to this Subsection if any such plan covers any employee or director who was a participant in any such plan, at any time within three years following the date the Company takes all necessary action to irrevocably terminate and liquidate the Agreement.
