SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

(Exhibit A to Offer Letter of Anthony
“Tony” Lopez)

 

This will confirm the agreement between
Anthony “Tony” Lopez (“You”) and BioScrip, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”)
that, if You are terminated by the Company other than for “Cause” or if you terminate your employment with the Company
for “Good Reason” (each as defined below), upon execution and return to the Company of the Company’s standard
Separation and Release Agreement (provided You execute and return the Separation and Release Agreement by the 60th day
following your date of separation of employment with the Company (the “Separation Date”) and You do not exercise any
right of revocation that You may have under such Separation and Release Agreement), You will be entitled to receive salary continuation
payments in accordance with the terms of this Severance Agreement for fifty-two (52) weeks following the effective date of the
Separation and Release Agreement (the “Severance Period”).

 

The salary continuation payments shall
be subject to applicable taxes and other lawful withholdings. The payments shall commence as soon as administratively practicable
following the effective date of the Separation and release Agreement (but no later than the 90th day following the Separation
Date), and shall be payable in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll schedule and practices in equal installments
for the Severance Period.

 

For purposes of this Severance Agreement,
“Cause” shall mean any of the following: (a) your gross negligence, insubordination, or intentional misconduct
in connection with the performance of your job duties, (b) your conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere
to, any felony or crime involving moral turpitude, (c) your violation of the Company’s substance abuse policy, (d) your
breach of any material provision of this or any other agreement between You and the Company which remains uncured for a period
of 30 days following your receipt of written notice from the Company of such breach, or (e) your violation of any rule or
regulation of any government agency, or self-regulatory body, applicable to the Company’s business.

 

For purposes of this Agreement, “Good
Reason” means the existence without your written consent of any one or more of the following conditions that continue for
more than 45 days following your written notice of such condition(s) to the Chief Executive Officer (“Cure Period”):
(i) a material adverse change in or reduction of your title, authority, duties and responsibilities; (ii) a material reduction
in your base salary; or (iii) all or substantially all of the assets of the Company are purchased, and within 60 days of the consummation
of such transaction the purchaser neither adopts this Severance Agreement nor offers you a severance agreement on substantially
equivalent economic terms to this Severance Agreement, provided, however, that you must (x) deliver such written notice within
30 days following your learning of one of the conditions, and (y) you must cease employment within 30 days after the end of the
Cure Period.

 

Except as expressly provided herein, upon
separation from employment with the Company for any reason, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, You shall be entitled only to
your base salary earned through the Separation Date and any accrued, but unpaid business expenses owed pursuant to Company policy
and any amounts earned but unpaid under any written retention bonus agreement between you and the Company, and You shall not be
entitled to any further base salary or any applicable bonus, benefits, or other compensation for that year or any future year,
and no other benefits shall accrue or vest subsequent to such date, except as may be required by applicable law or provided in
an applicable benefit plan or program.

 

     

     

    

 

To the extent that any regulations or other
guidance issued under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 409A”), would result
in your being subject to payment of taxes, interest, or penalties under Section 409A, You and the Company agree to use our best
efforts to amend this Severance Agreement in order to avoid or limit the imposition of any such taxes, interest, or penalties,
while maintaining to the maximum extent practicable the original intent of the applicable provisions; provided, however, that the
Company does not guarantee that You will not be subject to taxes, interest, or penalties under Section 409A with respect to any
payments made pursuant to this Severance Agreement.

 

References to termination of employment
or similar terms hereunder shall mean a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. For purposes
of Section 409A, the right to each salary continuation payment hereunder shall be treated as a right to a separate payment. It
is intended that salary continuation payments (in the order received) shall be considered exempt from the application of Section
409A to the extent they may be characterized as either short-term deferrals (as defined in Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(b)(4))
or involuntary separation pay (as defined in Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(b)(9)), and this Severance Agreement shall be
construed accordingly.

 

This Severance Agreement shall remain in
effect and be binding upon any successor or assign of the Company, including any entity that (whether directly or indirectly, by
purchase, merger, reorganization, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, liquidation, or otherwise) is the survivor of
the Company or that acquires the Company and/or substantially all the assets of the Company, and such successor entity shall be
deemed the “Company” for purposes of this Severance Agreement.

 

This Severance Agreement constitutes the
entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Severance Agreement shall be construed in accordance
with, and its interpretation shall otherwise be governed by, the laws of the State of Colorado, where the Company is headquartered,
without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law.

 

Kindly signify your agreement to the foregoing
by signing below and forwarding an executed copy for our files.

EXECUTION VERSION

 

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

 

THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”)
is made and entered into as of May 3, 2017, by and between First Horizon National Corporation, a Tennessee corporation (the “Company”),
and R. Eugene Taylor (the “Executive” and, together with the Company, the “parties”).

 

WHEREAS, Capital Bank Financial Corp., a
Delaware corporation (“Capital Bank”), and the Executive are parties to an Amended and Restated Employment Agreement,
dated as of October 19, 2016 (the “Prior Agreement”);

 

WHEREAS, the Company, Capital Bank, and Firestone
Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation, have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated May 3, 2017 (the “Merger Agreement”);
capitalized terms set forth herein and not defined have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement; and

 

WHEREAS, as an inducement to the willingness
of the Company to enter into the Merger Agreement, the Executive is entering into this Agreement, which shall be effective as of
the Effective Time provided the Executive is still employed by Capital Bank as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, with
the terms and conditions set forth below, contingent upon the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the Executive’s
continued employment, the Company’s desire to protect its trade secrets, the mutual covenants and agreements set forth below,
and for other good and valuable consideration, it is hereby covenanted and agreed by the Executive and the Company as follows:

 

1.         Employment
Conditioned upon the Closing. The Company hereby agrees to employ the Executive, and
the Executive hereby accepts such employment, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. The parties agree that this Agreement’s
effectiveness shall be conditioned upon the occurrence of the Closing. If the Merger Agreement terminates prior to the Closing,
this Agreement shall be void ab initio and be of no further force or effect.

 

2.         Employment
Period. The term of the Executive’s employment
under this Agreement will commence at the Effective Time and end on the second anniversary of the Effective Time (the “Employment
Period”), unless terminated earlier pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement or extended by mutual agreement of the Executive
and the Company.

 

3.         Position
and Duties.

 

(a)      During
the Employment Period, the Executive shall (i) serve as the Vice Chairman of the Company, with principal responsibilities to serve
as an ambassador to the Capital Bank markets, to maintain and transition Capital Bank relationships, to assist in developing new
business and relationships, and to otherwise be available to consult with and carry out such other duties as may be reasonably
requested by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (the “CEO”) and (ii) report solely to the CEO. In addition,
effective as of the Effective Time, the Executive shall be appointed to the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”)
and, during the Employment Period, shall be nominated to serve on the Board. During

    	 

    	

    

the Employment Period, the Company shall provide
the Executive with an office at a location as reasonably requested by the Executive and, upon the Executive’s request, non-exclusive
secretarial and administrative support.

 

(b)      The
Executive, during the Employment Period, shall devote such business time and attention as necessary to carry out the duties and
responsibilities described in Section 3(a) of this Agreement and he shall perform his duties faithfully and efficiently subject
to the directions of the CEO; provided that the Company and the Executive acknowledge that the duties and responsibilities
of the position of Vice Chairman as set forth in Section 3(a) shall not require the Executive to work for the Company on a full-time
basis; and provided, further, that the Executive shall not be required to carry out such duties and responsibilities
on the Company’s premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall preclude the Executive (i) from participating
in or serving on the board of directors or similar governing body of charitable, religious, social or educational organizations
or (ii) from participating or serving on the board of directors or similar governing body of up to two public companies; provided
that such company is not a competitor of the Company and such participation does not reflect negatively on the Company and that
the Executive provides the Company with advance written notice of such participation; and provided, further, that
in the case of the Executive’s board participation pursuant to either clause (i) or (ii) above, the Board determines in its
good faith discretion that such participation or service does not unreasonably interfere, individually or in the aggregate, with
the Executive’s performance of his obligations to the Company.

 

(c)      The
Company acknowledges and agrees that the Executive may, prior to the Effective Time (or, if not practicable prior to the Effective
Time, following the Effective Time), enter into a Rule 10b5-1 Plan providing for his liquidation of shares of common stock, par
value $0.625 per share, of the Company (“Company Common Stock”) and stock options to purchase shares of Company
Common Stock received by the Executive in connection with the Merger.

 

4.          Compensation. Subject to the terms of this Agreement,
during the Employment Period, while the Executive is employed by the Company, the Company shall compensate the Executive for his
services as follows:

 

(a)      Base
Salary. The Executive shall receive an annual base salary (“Annual Base Salary”) of no less than $700,000.
The Executive’s Annual Base Salary shall be reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation
Committee”) pursuant to its normal performance review policies for senior executives and may be increased but not decreased.
The term “Annual Base Salary” as utilized in this Agreement shall refer to Annual Base Salary as in effect from time
to time. Such Annual Base Salary shall be payable in monthly or more frequent installments in accordance with the Company’s
payroll policies. The Company and the Executive acknowledge that, while the Executive is receiving compensation pursuant to this
Agreement, the Executive shall not be eligible to receive compensation in his capacity as a member of the Board in addition to
the compensation set forth in this Section 4.

 

(b)      Annual
Incentive Payment. With respect to each fiscal year or portion of a fiscal year of the Company ending during the Employment
Period, the Executive shall be awarded an annual incentive payment (the “Incentive Payment”) as determined by
the

    	-2-

    	

    

Compensation Committee in its discretion and,
if applicable, in accordance with the terms of the First Horizon National Corporation Management Incentive Plan; provided,
however, that the Executive’s Incentive Payment for each fiscal year (or portion thereof) during the Employment Period
shall be no less than 100% of his Annual Base Salary for each fiscal year (or portion thereof) (the “Target Incentive
Payment”). Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if the Executive receives a prorated bonus from
Capital Bank in respect of the fiscal year in which the Effective Time occurs, the Incentive Payment under this Section 4(b) shall
be prorated for the period commencing on the date on which the Effective Time occurs through the last date of such fiscal year.
Such Target Incentive Payment may be increased but not decreased in the sole discretion of the Company. The earned Incentive Payments
shall be paid to the Executive pursuant to the terms of the First Horizon National Corporation Management Incentive Plan; provided,
however, that any such Incentive Payment for a fiscal year shall be paid to the Executive no later than the 15th day of
the third month following the close of such fiscal year, unless the Executive shall elect to defer the receipt of such Incentive
Payment pursuant to an arrangement that meets the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the “Code”).

 

(c)      Equity
Compensation. On the date on which the Effective Time occurs, the Executive shall be granted an award of “Restricted
Stock” (as defined in the First Horizon National Corporation Equity Compensation Plan (the “Equity Plan”))
having a grant date “Fair Market Value” (as defined in the Equity Plan) equal to $2.1 million (the “Restricted
Stock Award”), which Restricted Stock Award shall (i) vest on the second anniversary of the Effective Time, subject to
the Executive’s continued employment with the Company through such anniversary, (ii) shall become fully vested upon a termination
of the Executive’s employment prior to such anniversary by the Company without Cause (as defined below), by the Executive
with Good Reason (as defined below), or due to the Executive’s death or Disability (as defined below), and (iii) shall otherwise
have terms and conditions that are consistent with the service-based awards of Restricted Stock granted to similarly situated senior
executives of the Company (excluding any performance vesting conditions).

 

(d)      Employee
Benefits, Fringe Benefits and Perquisites. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be eligible to participate in
the employee benefit, fringe benefit and perquisite plans and programs that are provided by the Company from time to time to the
Company’s other senior executives, in each case, in accordance with the terms and conditions of such plans and programs.
If the Executive is not eligible to participate in any of the Company’s welfare plans during the Employment Period (including
the Company’s “primetime” program), the Company shall immediately commence providing the Executive with the benefits
provided under Section 6(a)(F) and the 36-month period referred to therein shall commence on the first date on which such benefits
are provided.

 

(e)      Expense
Reimbursement. During the Employment Period, the Company will reimburse the Executive for all reasonable expenses incurred
by him in the performance of his duties in accordance with the Company’s policies applicable to senior executives and in
accordance with the requirements of Section 8(a)(ii) of this Agreement.

    	-3-

    	

    

(f)      D&O
Insurance. The Executive shall be covered by any directors’ and officers’ insurance that the Company shall have
in effect from time to time to the same extent as the other directors and officers of the Company are covered by such insurance.

 

(g)      Change
in Control Payment. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, Capital Bank shall pay to the Executive the cash severance amount
under Section 6(a)(B) of the Prior Agreement that is payable upon a termination with “Good Reason” within the two-year
period following a “Change in Control” (as each such term is defined in the Prior Agreement).

 

5.         Termination
of Employment.

 

(a)      Death
or Disability. The Executive’s employment shall terminate automatically upon the Executive’s death during the Employment
Period. If the Executive incurs a Disability during the Employment Period, the Company may provide the Executive with written notice
in accordance with Section 12(g) of this Agreement of its intention to terminate the Executive’s employment. In such event,
the Executive’s employment with the Company shall terminate effective on the 30th day after receipt of such notice by the
Executive (the “Disability Effective Date”); provided that, within 30 days after such receipt, the Executive
shall not have returned to full-time performance of the Executive’s duties. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability”
shall mean the inability of the Executive to perform the Executive’s duties with the Company on a full-time basis as a result
of incapacity due to mental or physical illness, which inability exists for 180 days during any consecutive 12-month period, as
determined by a physician selected by the Company or its insurers and acceptable to the Executive or the Executive’s legal
representative.

 

(b)      Termination
by the Company. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment during the Employment Period either with or without
Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean:

 

(i)      willful
misconduct or willful neglect by the Executive in the performance of his duties to the Company;

 

(ii)      the
Executive’s willful failure to adhere materially to the clear directions of the Board or to adhere materially to the Company’s
material written policies;

 

(iii)      the
Executive’s conviction of or formal admission to or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to a charge of commission of
a felony; or

 

(iv)      the
Executive’s willful breach of any of the material terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 

For purposes of this provision, no act or failure to act, on
the part of the Executive, shall be considered “willful” unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive
in bad faith or without reasonable belief that the Executive’s action or omission was in the best interests of the Company.
Any act or failure to act based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board or upon the advice of counsel
for the Company shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in good faith and in the best
interests of the Company. To invoke a termination with Cause, the Company shall provide

    	-4-

    	

    

written notice to the Executive of the existence of one or more
of the conditions described in clauses (i) through (iv) within 30 days following the Board’s actual knowledge of the existence
of such condition or conditions, specifying in reasonable detail the conditions constituting Cause, and the Executive shall have
30 days following receipt of such written notice (the “Executive Cure Period”) during which it may remedy the
condition if such condition is reasonably subject to cure. In addition, in the case of a termination of the Executive’s employment
with Cause other than as described in clause (iii) above, the cessation of employment of the Executive shall not be deemed to be
with Cause, unless and until there shall have been delivered to the Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative
vote of not less than a majority of the members of the Board other than the Executive at a meeting of the Board called and held
for such purpose (after reasonable notice is provided to the Executive and the Executive is given an opportunity, together with
counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that, in the good faith opinion of the Board, the Executive is guilty of the conduct
described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iv) above, and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.

 

(c)      Resignation.
The Executive’s employment may be terminated by the Executive during the Employment Period with or without Good Reason. For
purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean, in the absence of the written consent of the Executive:

 

(i)      a
material diminution in the Executive’s Annual Base Salary or Target Incentive Payment during the Employment Period;

 

(ii)      a
material diminution in the position, authority, duties or responsibilities of the Executive from those described in Section 3(a)
of this Agreement;

 

(iii)      a
requirement that the Executive report to an employee of the Company other than the CEO;

 

(iv)      any
material failure by the Company to comply with the material terms of Section 4 of this Agreement during the Employment Period;
or

 

(v)      any
other material breach of this Agreement by the Company.

 

To invoke a termination with Good Reason, the Executive shall
provide written notice to the Company of the existence of one or more of the conditions described in clauses (i) through (v) within
30 days following the initial existence of such condition or conditions, specifying in reasonable detail the conditions constituting
Good Reason, and the Company shall have 30 days following receipt of such written notice (the “Company Cure Period”)
during which it may remedy the condition if such condition is reasonably subject to cure. If the Company fails to remedy the condition
constituting Good Reason during the applicable Company Cure Period, the Executive’s “separation from service”
(within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) must occur, if at all, within 60 days following such Company Cure Period for such
termination as a result of such condition to constitute a termination with Good Reason. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Agreement, a temporary suspension of the Executive’s duties, authorities, employment or other roles hereunder not
in excess of 90 days by the Board based upon the Board’s good faith judgment that such suspension is warranted pending investigation
of any

    	-5-

    	

    

material allegations relating to the conduct of the Executive
or the conduct of the Company that may implicate the Executive shall not give rise to Good Reason.

 

(d)      Notice
of Termination. Any termination by the Company with Cause, or by the Executive with Good Reason, shall be communicated by Notice
of Termination to the other party hereto given in accordance with Section 12(g) of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement,
a “Notice of Termination” means a written notice that (i) indicates the specific termination provision in this
Agreement relied upon, (ii) to the extent applicable, sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide
a basis for termination of the Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated, and (iii) if the Date of Termination
(as defined below) is other than the date of receipt of such notice, specifies the termination date (which date shall be not more
than 30 days after the giving of such notice or 30 days after the end of the Company Cure Period, if applicable, in the case of
a termination by the Executive with Good Reason). The failure by the Executive or the Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination
any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Good Reason or Cause shall not waive any right of the Executive or the
Company, respectively, hereunder or preclude the Executive or the Company, respectively, from asserting such fact or circumstance
in enforcing the Executive’s or the Company’s rights hereunder.

 

(e)      Date
of Termination. For purposes of this Agreement, “Date of Termination” means (i) if the Executive’s
employment is terminated by the Company without Cause, or by the Executive without Good Reason, the date of receipt of the Notice
of Termination or any later date specified therein within 30 days of such notice, as the case may be; (ii) if the Executive’s
employment is terminated by the Executive with Good Reason, a date that is no later than 30 days after the Company Cure Period,
if applicable; (iii) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company with Cause, the Date of Termination shall
be the date on which the Company notifies the Executive of such termination (which shall not be until after the expiration of the
Executive Cure Period); and (iv) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of death or Disability, the Date of
Termination shall be the date of death of the Executive or the Disability Effective Date, as the case may be.

 

6.         Obligations
of the Company upon Termination of Employment.

 

(a)      Resignation
by the Executive with Good Reason or Termination by the Company without Cause. If, during the Employment Period, the Executive’s
employment is terminated (i) by the Executive with Good Reason, or (ii) by the Company without Cause, and, except with respect
to the payment of Accrued Obligations and Other Benefits (as such terms are defined below), the Executive shall have executed and
delivered to the Company within 30 days of the Date of Termination a release of claims against the Company and its affiliates substantially
in the form attached as Exhibit A and not revoked such release, the Company shall pay to the Executive within 40 days after
the Date of Termination (except as otherwise required by law or provided below) or provide, as applicable, the following:

 

(A)      A
lump sum cash payment consisting of: (1) the Executive’s Annual Base Salary through the Date of Termination to the extent
not theretofore paid; (2) the annual Incentive Payment earned by the Executive for an award period ending prior to the Date of
Termination but not yet paid to the

    	-6-

    	

    

Executive or, if no Incentive Payment
has been awarded for such period, the Target Incentive Payment (pro-rated as contemplated by Section 4(b) for any partial fiscal
year in which the Effective Time occurs) (other than any portion of such annual Incentive Payment that was previously deferred,
which portion shall instead be paid in accordance with the applicable deferral arrangement and any election thereunder); (3) any
accrued vacation or paid time off in accordance with the Company’s vacation and paid time off policies, in each case, to
the extent not theretofore paid; and (4) any unreimbursed business expenses incurred prior to the Date of Termination (the sum
of the amounts described in clauses (1), (2), (3), and (4) shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Accrued Obligations”);

 

(B)      A
lump sum cash payment equal to the product of the Target Incentive Payment multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which
is the number of days elapsed in the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs through the Date of Termination (or, if
the Effective Time occurs in 2017 and the Date of Termination occurs in 2017, the number of days elapsed between the date on which
the Effective Time occurs through the Date of Termination), and the denominator of which is the number of days in such fiscal year
(the “Pro Rata Bonus”);

 

(C)      A
lump sum cash payment equal to product of (1) the sum of the Annual Base Salary and the Target Incentive Payment multiplied
by (2) the quotient of (x) the number of days from the Date of Termination through the second anniversary of the date on which
the Effective Time occurs divided by (y) 365;

 

(D)      The
Restricted Stock Award shall immediately vest and become non-forfeitable;

 

(E)      To
the extent not theretofore paid or provided, the Company shall timely pay or provide to the Executive any other amounts or benefits
required to be paid or provided or which the Executive is entitled to receive under any plan, program, policy, practice, contract
or agreement of the Company and its affiliates through the Date of Termination (such other amounts and benefits shall be hereinafter
referred to as the “Other Benefits”); and

 

(F)      The
Company shall provide the Executive and the Executive’s dependents with continued coverage under any health, medical, dental,
vision or life insurance program or policy in which the Executive was eligible to participate as of the time of the Executive’s
employment termination, for 36 months following such termination (or such shorter period if such benefits commenced earlier as
contemplated by Section 4(d)) on terms no less favorable to the Executive and the Executive’s dependents (including with
respect to payment for the costs thereof) than those in effect for employees generally, which coverage shall become secondary to
any coverage provided to the Executive by a subsequent employer and to any Medicare coverage for which the Executive becomes eligible
(the “Welfare Benefits”).

    	-7-

    	

    

(b)      Termination
by the Company with Cause; Resignation by the Executive without Good Reason; Death; Disability; Termination upon Expiration.
If, during the Employment Period, the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company with Cause, by the Executive without
Good Reason, or due to the Executive’s death or Disability, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to
the Executive, other than the obligation to pay or provide (i) the Accrued Obligations (paid as set forth in Section 6(a)(A) of
this Agreement), (ii) the Other Benefits (paid in accordance with the provisions of the applicable plans), and (iii) the Welfare
Benefits (provided as set forth in Section 6(a)(F) of this Agreement). In addition, upon the Executive’s termination of employment
due to his death or Disability, the Restricted Stock Award shall immediately vest and become non-forfeitable and the Executive
shall be entitled to receive the Pro Rata Bonus (payable within 40 days following the Date of Termination). Upon the Executive’s
termination on or following the expiration of this Agreement, the Executive shall be entitled to receive (A) the Accrued Obligations
(paid as set forth in Section 6(a)(A) of this Agreement), (B) the Pro Rata Bonus (payable within 40 days following the Date of
Termination), (C) the Welfare Benefits (provided as set forth in Section 6(a)(F) of this Agreement), and (D) the Other Benefits
(paid in accordance with the provisions of the applicable plans).

 

(c)      Full
Settlement; Legal Fees. The payments and benefits provided under this Section 6 (including, without limitation, the Other Benefits)
shall be in full satisfaction of the Company’s obligations to the Executive upon his termination of employment, notwithstanding
the remaining length of the Employment Period, and in no event shall the Executive be entitled to severance benefits (or other
damages in respect of a termination of employment or claim for breach of this Agreement) beyond those specified in this Section
6. The Company agrees to pay as incurred (within 10 days following the Company’s receipt of an invoice from the Executive),
at any time from the date on which the Effective Time occurs through the Executive’s remaining lifetime (or, if longer, through
the 20th anniversary of the date on which the Effective Time occurs) to the full extent permitted by law, all legal fees and expenses
that the Executive may reasonably incur as a result of any contest (regardless of the outcome thereof) by the Company, the Executive,
or others of the validity or enforceability of, or liability under, any provision of this Agreement or any guarantee of performance
thereof (including as a result of any contest by the Executive about the amount of any payment pursuant to this Agreement), plus,
in each case, interest on any delayed payment at the applicable federal rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code
based on the rate in effect for the month in which such legal fees and expenses were incurred.

 

(d)      Non-Exclusivity
of Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or limit the Executive’s continuing or future participation in any
plan, program, policy or practice provided by the Company or any of its affiliates and for which the Executive may qualify, nor
shall anything herein limit or otherwise affect such rights as the Executive may have under any other contract or agreement with
the Company or any of its affiliates. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Executive’s resignation under
this Agreement with or without Good Reason shall in no way affect the Executive’s ability to terminate employment by reason
of the Executive’s “retirement” under, or to be eligible to receive benefits (other than severance benefits)
under, any compensation and benefits plans, programs or arrangements of the Company or any of its affiliates, including, without
limitation, any retirement or pension plans or arrangements or substitute plans adopted by the Company or any of its affiliates
or their

    	-8-

    	

    

respective successors, and any termination
that otherwise qualifies as Good Reason shall be treated as such even if it is also a “retirement” for purposes of
any such plan.

 

7.         No
Mitigation; No Offset. The Company’s obligation to make the payments provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to
perform its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other claim, right
or action that the Company may have against the Executive or others. In no event shall the Executive be obligated to seek other
employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to the Executive under any of the provisions of
this Agreement, and such amounts shall not be reduced whether or not the Executive obtains other employment.

 

8.         Section
409A; Forfeiture.

 

(a)      Section
409A.

 

(i)      General.
It is intended that this Agreement shall comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and the Treasury regulations relating
thereto, or an exemption to Section 409A of the Code. Any payments that qualify for the “short-term deferral” exception
or another exception under Section 409A of the Code shall be paid under the applicable exception. For purposes of the limitations
on nonqualified deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code, each payment of compensation under this Agreement shall be
treated as a separate payment of compensation. To the extent required to avoid taxes and penalties under Section 409A of the Code,
all payments to be made upon a termination of employment under this Agreement shall be made upon a “separation from service”
under Section 409A of the Code.

 

(ii)      In-Kind
Benefits and Reimbursements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all (A) reimbursements and (B) in-kind
benefits provided under this Agreement that are subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be made or provided in accordance with
the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, including, where applicable, the requirement that (1) the amount of expenses eligible
for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement,
or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other calendar year; (2) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made no later
than the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred; and (3) the right to reimbursement
or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

 

(iii)      Delay
of Payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent required to avoid taxes and penalties
under Section 409A of the Code, if the Executive is considered a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A
of the Code (as determined in accordance with the methodology established by the Company as in effect on the date of termination),
any payment that constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code that is otherwise
due to the Executive under this Agreement during the six-month period following his separation from service (as determined in accordance
with Section 409A of the Code) on account of his separation from service shall be

    	-9-

    	

    

accumulated and paid to the Executive
on the first business day of the seventh month following his separation from service (the “Delayed Payment Date”).
The Executive shall be entitled to interest on any delayed cash payments from the date of termination to the Delayed Payment Date
at a rate equal to the applicable federal short-term rate in effect under Section 1274(d) of the Code for the month in which the
Executive’s separation from service occurs. If the Executive dies during the postponement period, the amounts and entitlements
delayed on account of Section 409A of the Code shall be paid to the personal representative of his estate on the first to occur
of the Delayed Payment Date or 30 days after the date of the Executive’s death.

 

(b)      Forfeiture.
The policies of the Company relating to forfeiture or clawback shall apply to the Executive on the same basis as such policies
apply to similarly situated executives of the Company with respect to incentive compensation awarded to the Executive following
the Effective Time. The parties agree that any compensation under this Agreement shall also be subject to clawback/forfeiture provisions
required by any law applicable to the Company, including, without limitation, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection
Act and/or any applicable regulations.

 

9.         Treatment
of Certain Payments.

 

(a)      Anything
in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event the Accounting Firm (as defined below) shall determine that receipt
of all Payments (as defined below) would subject the Executive to the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, the Accounting
Firm shall determine whether to reduce any of the Payments paid or payable pursuant to this Agreement (the “Agreement
Payments”) so that the Parachute Value (as defined below) of all Payments, in the aggregate, equals the Safe Harbor Amount
(as defined below). The Agreement Payments shall be so reduced only if the Accounting Firm determines that the Executive would
have a greater Net After-Tax Receipt (as defined below) of aggregate Payments if the Agreement Payments were so reduced. If the
Accounting Firm determines that the Executive would not have a greater Net After-Tax Receipt of aggregate Payments if the Agreement
Payments were so reduced, the Executive shall receive all Agreement Payments to which the Executive is entitled hereunder.

 

(b)      If
the Accounting Firm determines that aggregate Agreement Payments should be reduced so that the Parachute Value of all Payments,
in the aggregate, equals the Safe Harbor Amount, the Company shall promptly give the Executive notice to that effect and a copy
of the detailed calculation thereof. All determinations made by the Accounting Firm under this Section 9 shall be binding upon
the Company and the Executive and shall be made as soon as reasonably practicable and in no event later than 15 days following
the Date of Termination. For purposes of reducing the Agreement Payments so that the Parachute Value of all Payments, in the aggregate,
equals the Safe Harbor Amount, only amounts payable under this Agreement (and no other Payments) shall be reduced. The reduction
of the amounts payable hereunder, if applicable, shall be made by reducing the payments and benefits under the following sections
in the following order: (i) cash payments that do not constitute deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the
Code, and (ii) cash payments that do constitute deferred compensation, in each case, beginning with payments or benefits that are
to be paid the furthest in time from the Accounting Firm’s determination. All reasonable fees and expenses of the

    	-10-

    	

    

Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the
Company. For purposes of all present value determinations required to be made under this Section 9, the Company and the Executive
elect to use the applicable federal rate that is in effect on the Effective Date pursuant to Treasury Regulations § 1-280G,
Q&A-32.

 

(c)      To
the extent requested by the Executive, the Company shall cooperate with the Executive in good faith in valuing, and the Accounting
Firm shall take into account the value of, services provided or to be provided by the Executive (including, without limitation,
the Executive’s agreeing to refrain from performing services pursuant to a covenant not to compete or similar covenant, before,
on or after the date of a change in ownership or control of the Company (within the meaning of Q&A-2(b) of the final regulations
under Section 280G of the Code)), such that payments in respect of such services may be considered reasonable compensation within
the meaning of Q&A-9 and Q&A-40 to Q&A-44 of the final regulations under Section 280G of the Code and/or exempt from
the definition of the term “parachute payment” within the meaning of Q&A-2(a) of the final regulations under Section
280G of the Code in accordance with Q&A-5(a) of the final regulations under Section 280G of the Code.

 

(d)      The
following terms shall have the following meanings for purposes of this Section 9:

 

(i)      “Accounting
Firm” shall mean a nationally recognized certified public accounting firm or other professional organization that is
a certified public accounting firm recognized as an expert in determinations and calculations for purposes of Section 280G of the
Code that is selected by Capital Bank prior to the Effective Time for purposes of making the applicable determinations hereunder
and is reasonably acceptable to the Executive, which firm shall not, without the Executive’s consent, be a firm serving as
accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the “change in ownership or control” (within the
meaning of Section 280G of the Code).

 

(ii)      “Net
After-Tax Receipt” shall mean the present value (as determined in accordance with Sections 280G(b)(2)(A)(ii) and 280G(d)(4)
of the Code) of a Payment net of all taxes imposed on the Executive with respect thereto under Sections 1 and 4999 of the Code
and under applicable state and local laws, determined by applying the highest marginal rate under Section 1 of the Code and under
state and local laws that applied to the Executive’s taxable income for the immediately preceding taxable year, or such other
rate(s) as the Accounting Firm determines to be likely to apply to the Executive in the relevant tax year(s).

 

(iii)      “Parachute
Value” of a Payment shall mean the present value as of the date of the change of control for purposes of Section 280G
of the Code of the portion of such Payment that constitutes a “parachute payment” under Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code,
as determined by the Accounting Firm for purposes of determining whether and to what extent the excise tax under Section 4999 of
the Code will apply to such Payment.

 

(iv)      “Payment”
shall mean any payment or distribution in the nature of compensation (within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code) to
or for the

    	-11-

    	

    

benefit of the Executive, whether
paid or payable pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise.

 

(v)      “Safe
Harbor Amount” shall mean 2.99 times the Executive’s “base amount,” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3)
of the Code.

 

(e)      The
provisions of this Section 9 shall survive the expiration of this Agreement.

 

10.       Restrictive
Covenants.

 

(a)      Return
of Company Property. Upon his termination of employment for any reason, the Executive shall promptly return to the Company
any keys, credit cards, passes, confidential documents or material, or other property belonging to the Company, and the Executive
shall also return all writings, files, records, correspondence, notebooks, notes and other documents and things (including any
copies thereof) containing confidential information or relating to the business or proposed business of the Company or its affiliates
or containing any trade secrets relating to the Company or its affiliates, in each case, in the Executive’s possession, except
for any personal diaries, calendars, rolodexes or personal notes or correspondence. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the
term “trade secrets” shall have the meaning ascribed to it under the Uniform Trade Secrets Act. The Executive agrees
to represent in writing to the Company upon termination of employment that he has complied with the foregoing provisions of this
Section 10(a).

 

(b)      Mutual
Nondisparagement. The Executive and the Company each agree that, following the Executive’s termination of employment,
neither the Executive, nor the Company will make any public statements that materially disparage the other party. The Company shall
not be liable for any breach of its obligations under this Section 10(b) if it informs its directors and executive officers, as
such term is defined in Rule 3b-7 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”),
of the content of its covenant hereunder and takes reasonable measures to ensure that such individuals honor the Company’s
agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 10(b) shall prohibit any person from making truthful statements
when required by order of a court or other governmental or regulatory body having jurisdiction or to enforce any legal right, including,
without limitation, the terms of this Agreement.

 

(c)      Confidential
Information. The Executive agrees that, during his employment with the Company and at all times thereafter, he shall hold for
the benefit of the Company all secret or confidential information, knowledge or data relating to the Company or any of its affiliates,
and their respective businesses, which shall have been obtained by the Executive during the Executive’s employment by the
Company or during his consultation with the Company after his termination of employment, and which is not public knowledge (other
than by acts by the Executive or representatives of the Executive in violation of this Agreement). Except in the good faith performance
of his duties for the Company, the Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company or as may otherwise be
required by law or legal process, communicate or divulge any such information, knowledge or data to anyone other than the Company
and those designated by it.

    	-12-

    	

    

(d)      Nonsolicitation.
The Executive agrees that, while he is employed by the Company and during the one-year period following his termination of employment
with the Company (the “Restricted Period”), the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit any
individual who is, on the Date of Termination (or was, during the six-month period prior to the Date of Termination), employed
by the Company or its affiliates to terminate or refrain from renewing or extending such employment or to become employed by or
become a consultant to any other individual or entity other than the Company or its affiliates or (ii) induce or attempt to induce
any customer or investor (in each case, whether former, current or prospective), supplier, licensee or other business relation
of the Company or any of its affiliates to cease doing business with the Company or such affiliate, or in any way interfere with
the relationship between any such customer, investor, supplier, licensee or business relation, on the one hand, and the Company
or any of its affiliates, on the other hand.

 

(e)      Noncompetition.
The Executive agrees that, during the Restricted Period, he will not engage in Competition (as defined below). The Executive shall
be deemed to be engaging in “Competition” if he, directly or indirectly, anywhere in the continental United
States in which the Company conducts business or has plans to conduct business, owns, manages, operates, controls or participates
in the ownership, management, operation or control of or is connected as an officer, employee, partner, director, consultant or
otherwise with, or has any financial interest in, any business (whether through a corporation or other entity) engaged in the commercial
banking business or in any other financial services business that is competitive with any portion of the business conducted by
the Company or any of its affiliates. Ownership for personal investment purposes only of less than 2% of the voting stock of any
publicly held corporation shall not constitute a violation hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restriction above shall not
prohibit the Executive from entering into employment with, or providing services to, any subsidiary, division, affiliate or unit
of an entity (a “Related Unit”) if that Related Unit does not engage in business that is in Competition with
the Company, irrespective of whether some other Related Unit of that entity is in Competition with the Company (as long as the
Executive does not engage in or assist in the activities of any Related Unit that is in Competition with the Company).

 

(f)      Equitable
Remedies. The Executive acknowledges that the Company would be irreparably injured by a violation of Section 10(b), 10(c),
10(d), or 10(e) and he agrees that the Company, in addition to any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened
breach, on meeting the standards required by law, shall be entitled to a preliminary injunction, temporary restraining order, or
other equivalent relief, restraining the Executive from any actual or threatened breach of Section 10(b), 10(c), 10(d), or 10(e).
If a bond is required to be posted in order for the Company to secure an injunction or other equitable remedy, the parties agree
that said bond need not be more than a nominal sum.

 

(g)      Severability;
Blue Pencil. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that he has had the opportunity to seek advice of counsel in connection
with this Agreement and the restrictive covenants contained herein are reasonable in geographical scope temporal duration and in
all other respects. If it is determined that any provision of this Section 10 is invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the
provisions of this Section 10 shall not thereby be affected and shall be given full effect, without regard to the invalid portions.
If any court or other decision-maker of competent jurisdiction determines that any of the covenants in this Section 10

    	-13-

    	

    

is unenforceable because of the duration or
geographic scope of such provision, then after such determination becomes final and unappealable, the duration or scope of such
provision, as the case may be, shall be reduced so that such provision becomes enforceable, and in its reduced form, such provision
shall be enforced. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the covenants set forth in this Section 10
are not intended to, and shall be interpreted in a manner that does not, limit or restrict the Executive from exercising any legally
protected whistleblower rights (including pursuant to Rule 21F under the Exchange Act).

 

11.       Successors.

 

(a)      This
Agreement is personal to the Executive and without the prior written consent of the Company shall not be assignable by the Executive.
This Agreement and any rights and benefits hereunder shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s
legal representatives, heirs or legatees. This Agreement and any rights and benefits hereunder shall inure to the benefit of and
be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns.

 

(b)      The
Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially
all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume expressly and agree to satisfy all of the obligations under this Agreement
in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to satisfy such obligations if no such succession
had taken place. As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as hereinbefore defined and any successor
to its business and/or assets as aforesaid that assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement by operation of law or otherwise.

 

12.       Miscellaneous.

 

(a)      Amendment.
This Agreement may not be amended or modified otherwise than by a written agreement executed by the parties hereto or their respective
successors and legal representatives; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may amend
or modify this Agreement if it determines in good faith that it is necessary to do so in order to comply with applicable legal
and/or regulatory requirements or guidance, including, without limitation, the final Guidance on Sound Incentive Compensation Policies
issued on June 21, 2010 by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System,
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Office of Thrift Supervision and Section 956 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform
and Consumer Protection Act, or in the formal and conclusive interpretation thereof by any regulator or agency of competent jurisdiction
(it being understood that any such amendment will not decrease in any material manner the economic value of the incentive compensation
opportunities currently provided for in this Agreement).

 

(b)      Withholding.
The Company may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement such federal, state, local or foreign taxes as shall be
required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

    	-14-

    	

    

(c)      Applicable
Law. The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without
regard to the conflict of law provisions of any state.

a controversy or claim arising under Section 10 of this Agreement) that is not resolved by the Executive and the Company shall
be submitted to arbitration in New York, New York in accordance with New York law and the procedures of the American Arbitration
Association. The determination of the arbitrator shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and the Executive and judgment
may be entered on the arbitrator(s)’ awards in any court having competent jurisdiction.

 

(e)      Severability.
The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other
provision of this Agreement, and this Agreement will be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision were omitted (but
only to the extent that such provision cannot be appropriately reformed or modified).

 

(f)      Waiver
of Breach. No waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by any other party, or of compliance
with any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party, will operate or be construed as a waiver
of any subsequent breach by such other party of any similar or dissimilar provisions and conditions at the same or any prior or
subsequent time. The failure of any party hereto to take any action by reason of such breach will not deprive such party of the
right to take action at any time while such breach continues.

 

(g)      Notices.
Notices and all other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered personally or sent
by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or prepaid overnight courier to the parties at the
