Amendment to Employment Agreement with Corey Coughlin

 Exhibit 10.3 
 FLORIDA BANK GROUP, INC. 
 AMENDMENT TO EMPLOYMENT
AGREEMENT 
 This AMENDMENT TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”), effective as of July 24,
2009, is made and entered into by and between FLORIDA BANK GROUP, INC. (the “Employer”) and Corey Coughlin (the “Employee”). 
 WITNESSETH: 
 WHEREAS, the Employer and Employee are parties to an
Employment Agreement dated April 16, 2007 (the “Agreement”), which sets forth the terms and conditions of Employee’s employment with the Employer; and 
 WHEREAS, as contemplated by a letter agreement between the parties dated on or around the date hereof (the “Letter
Agreement”), the parties are required to amend the Agreement to comply with certain executive compensation restrictions imposed on the Employer by reason of the Employer’s participation in the U.S. Department of Treasury’s
Troubled Asset Relief Program – Capital Purchase Program (the “TARP Program”). 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the premises and mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 1.
Capitalized Terms. All capitalized terms that are used but not expressly defined in this Amendment have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement. 
 2. Amendment. The following is inserted into the Agreement as new Section 18: 
 18 Compliance with TARP. 
 (a) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Agreement,
the Employee shall not be entitled to receive, and the Employer shall not pay or provide, any payment, compensation or other benefit otherwise required to be provided or paid to the Employee under the Agreement if the payment or receipt of such
payment, compensation or benefit would violate the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (the “EESA”), the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (the “ARRA”), any of the rules and regulations
promulgated under the EESA or ARRA, or any other law, rule or regulation applicable to participants in the TARP Program, as then in effect (collectively, “TARP Rules”). The Employer shall retain the exclusive and final authority and
discretion, without the need for the consent of the Employee, to cancel, reduce or otherwise eliminate any payments, compensation or other benefits otherwise required to be provided or paid to the Employee under the Agreement in order to comply with
this Section 18. Any payments, compensation or other benefits cancelled, reduced or eliminated pursuant to this Section 18 shall be forever forfeited by the Employee and, to the extent cancelled, reduced or eliminated, the Employee waives
all rights to such payments, compensation or other benefits and releases the Employer from all obligations to make such payments or provide such benefits at any time. 
  

 1 

 (b) Without limiting the generality of Section 18(a) of the Agreement,
the Employee shall not be entitled to receive, and the Employer shall not pay or provide, any severance compensation otherwise required to be paid to the Employee under Section 10(c) of the Agreement to the extent payment of such compensation
would be a golden parachute payment prohibited by the TARP Rules. In exchange, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8 of the Agreement, if the Employee’s employment is terminated by the Employer without “cause”
(as defined in Section 10(c) of the Agreement) or by the Employee for either of the two reasons defined in Section 10(c) of the Agreement for which “Employee shall be deemed to have been terminated by Employer (and not
voluntarily)” at a time in which payment of severance compensation is prohibited by the TARP Rules, the Employer shall not be entitled to enforce Section 8(a) of the Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein limits the
Employer’s rights or the Employee’s obligations under Section 8(a) on a termination of Employee’s employment for any other reason, or under Sections 7, 8(b) or 8(c) of the Agreement on a termination of Employee’s employment
for any reason. 
 3. Entire Agreement; Inconsistency; Ratification; Execution. This Amendment and the Letter Agreement
record the final, complete, and exclusive understanding among the parties regarding the amendment of the Agreement. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of this Amendment and the Agreement, the provisions of this
Amendment shall control and govern. As amended by this Amendment, the Agreement is ratified and remains in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. This Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts. A party’s receipt of a
facsimile signature page or portable document format (PDF) copy of a signature page to this Amendment shall be treated as the party’s receipt of an original signature page. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Employer and Employee have executed this Amendment as of the date first above written.

Section 10(d) below, (ii) Employee strictly complies with the restrictions contained in Sections 7 and 8 of this Agreement, (iii) Employer does not give Employee either a limited or complete waiver of any of the restrictions in

restrictions in Sections 7 and 8 of this Agreement at any time during the Non-Competition Period, and such waiver shall proactively cut off Employee’s Non-Renewal Severance Compensation as of the date of the election, but such waiver will not

Employee also acknowledges that, in the event of any such violation, Employer shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, without the necessity of proving actual damages, and to an equitable accounting of all earnings, profits
and other benefits arising from any such violation, which rights shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights or remedies to which Employer may be entitled. Employee agrees that, in the event of any such violation, an action shall be
commenced for any such preliminary and permanent injunctive relief and other equitable relief in any federal or state court of competent jurisdiction sitting in Hillsborough County, Florida or in any other court of competent jurisdiction. Employee
hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that Employee may now or hereafter have to such jurisdiction or to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that such
suit, action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Employee agrees that effective service of process may be made upon Employee by mail under the notice provisions contained in Section 12 hereof.

 10. Termination. 
 (a) Partial or Total Disability. If in the judgment of the Employer Board, Employee is substantially unable to perform
Employee’s duties and responsibilities hereunder by reason of significant illness, injury or incapacity for three (3) consecutive months, during which time Employer shall continue to compensate Employee hereunder (with such compensation to

Employee. 
 (c) Voluntary Termination by Employee With or Without Cause. Employee may terminate her employment with
Employer by providing to Employer at least sixty (60) days prior written notice of such termination provided in accordance with Section 12 of this Agreement. In the event that Employee voluntarily terminates her employment with Employer,
she shall be entitled to compensation only through the last day in which she provides services to the Employer. 
 (d)
Termination by Employer Without Cause. Employer may terminate Employee’s employment without “cause” by providing to Employee at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of such termination in accordance with

(ii) reimburse Employee for the payment of the COBRA premiums she incurs to continue insurance for herself and her dependents (such reimbursement shall commence immediately upon Employee’s payment of the first COBRA premium after the last
day of her employment and continue until the earlier of Employee and her dependents becoming insured or eighteen (18) months after the Employment Separation); provided that Employee strictly complies with the restrictions contained in Sections
7 and 8 of this Agreement and Employee executes and delivers to Employer a Separation Agreement,

  

 7

Release and Covenant Not To Sue is attached to this Agreement. However, Employer reserves the right to require Employee to sign a Separation Agreement different from the form attached to this Agreement, as a precondition to receiving the
post-employment payments described in this Paragraph. Employer will commence making payments in accordance with the Separation Agreement, including any period provided in which Employee can revoke her acceptance of the Separation Agreement. Further,
in the event that the Separation Agreement provides for a period in which Employee can revoke her acceptance of the Separation Agreement and Employee invokes her right of revocation, then Employee will be entitled to no payments under this Section.
If Employee is entitled to the payment described above, Employer will make such payments on Employer’s regular payroll dates in effect on the date of termination. 
 (e) Termination by Employer for “Cause”. Employer may terminate Employee’s employment for “Cause” by delivering written notice to Employee. Upon delivery of the written
notice, Employee’s employment shall cease immediately. For purposes of this Agreement, “cause” includes: (i) the Employee’s commission of an act of fraud or misrepresentation on Employer, a member of the Employer Group, any
investor, client, or customer, or any of Employer Group’s directors or shareholders in connection with the performance of her duties; (ii) the conviction of Employee (or Employee’s entering a plea of guilty or no contest) of a felony,
any criminal statute of any jurisdiction for which imprisonment of three months or more may be imposed, or any crime involving dishonesty or moral turpitude; (iii) Employee’s insubordination, gross negligence or intentional misconduct in
the performance of her duties; (iv) any serious or continuing breach by Employee of any material term of this Agreement or any other written agreement between Employee and Employer; (v) Employee’s intentional and continued failure to
substantially perform her duties under this Agreement or any other written agreement between Employee and Employer (other than any such failure resulting from disability under Section 10(a)); (vi) theft or embezzlement committed by
Employee; (vii) Employee’s current use of any illegal drug or excessive use of alcohol on the job; (viii) Employee’s breach of fiduciary duty; (ix) Employee’s breach of duty of loyalty to the Employer through

omissions by Employee which are materially and demonstrably injurious to the Employer, or could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the business or reputation of the Employer; and (xi) Employee’s default on any loan issued by
Employer Group. In the event that Employee’s employment is terminated for “cause”, she shall be entitled to compensation only through the last day in which she provides service to Employer. 
 (f) To the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), no
payment or benefit required to be paid or provided under this Agreement on account of a termination of Employee’s employment shall be paid or provided unless and until Employee experiences a “separation from service” from Employer
within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and the default rules of Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(h) promulgated thereunder. For this purpose, the “Employer” is the Employer and every entity or other
person which collectively with the Employer constitutes a single “service recipient” (as that term is defined in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.409A-1(g)) as the result of the application of the default rules of Treasury Regulations
Sections 1.409A-1(h)(3).
