C&F Financial Corporation Management Incentive Plan

 EXHIBIT 10.8 
  
 C&F Financial Corporation 
  
 Management Incentive Plan 
  
 ARTICLE I 
  
 OBJECTIVE OF THE PLAN 
  
 The purpose of the Management Incentive Plan (“MIP”) is to attract, retain and motivate key employees by providing incentive awards to designated executive, managerial and professional employees of C&F Financial Corporation
(“Company”) and its direct or indirect subsidiaries. 
  
 The MIP is
designed to link key employee interests more closely with the interests of the Company’s shareholders and to create value for the Company by maximizing achievement of corporate, business unit and individual performance goals. 
  
 Each Participant’s award under this MIP will take into account corporate performance as
well as, where appropriate, his or her own business unit’s performance. Awards under the MIP may also reflect individual performance. 
  
 ARTICLE II 
  
 PLAN ADMINISTRATION 
  
 The MIP will be administered by the Compensation Committee (“Committee”) which will have the right to interpret the MIP, determine participation and awards, measure achievement of performance goals and establish guidelines for
determining individual awards and rules for the operation and administration of the MIP. 
  
 It is the exclusive domain of the Committee to administer and interpret the MIP. All Committee decisions regarding the MIP and award determinations are final. 
  
 Except as expressly otherwise provided herein in the case of Named Executive Officers (as
defined below) or as prohibited by any national securities exchange or system on which the Company’s stock is then listed or reported, by any regulatory body having jurisdiction with respect thereto or under any other applicable laws, rules or
regulations, the Committee may delegate one or more of its powers or responsibilities to one or more of its members and/or to one or more officers of the Company. 
  
 The Chief Executive Officer’s incentive awards (whether cash or in the form of equity awards) will be determined solely by the
Committee, taking into account the overall Company performance relative to the established business plan (“Corporate Goal”). 
  
 The MIP is an annual plan, is first effective January 1, 2005 and shall remain in effect until amended or terminated by the Committee. A new plan year shall commence on
the first business day of each fiscal year of the Company. The Committee shall review the MIP annually and make any amendments or revisions thereto which it deems appropriate or desirable.

 ARTICLE III 
  
 PARTICIPANTS 
  
 Persons who may participate in the MIP are limited to key employees of the Company and its direct or indirect subsidiaries who are recommended by the Chief Executive
Officer and approved by the Committee (“Participants”). 
  
 To be
eligible for the MIP in any particular year, key employees must be employees of the Company or a subsidiary as of January 1st of that plan year. In addition, employees who are either hired as key employees or are promoted and become key employees
after the beginning of a plan year may be designated as Participants for the plan year and assigned a prorated target in the Committee’s discretion. 
  
 All incentive awards (whether in cash or in the form of equity awards) made to the President of C&F Mortgage Corporation (“C&F Mortgage”) shall be made
pursuant to such President’s Employment Agreement, as in effect from time to time, with C&F Mortgage or the Company, and not pursuant to this MIP, for any year for which such Employment Agreement provides for an annual incentive
arrangement. 
  
 ARTICLE IV 
  
 PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES 
  
 In connection with the administration of the MIP, the Committee shall establish: 

 
 (i) MIP performance objectives for the Company and any subsidiary
(“Corporate Goals”), and appropriate business units of the Company (“Business Unit Goals”) and individuals (“Individual Goals”) based upon such criteria as may be determined by the Committee, and 
  
 (ii) The award formula or matrix by which all incentive awards under the MIP
shall be calculated. 
  
 Except as provided herein in the case of Named Executive
Officers, the selection of such performance objective(s) and the award formula or matrix may vary on a Participant by Participant basis. 
  
 Prior to or within the first 90 days of each plan year after 2005, the Committee shall review the previously established Corporate Goals, Business Unit Goals and
Individual Goals and make any changes to such performance objectives as it deems appropriate for the new plan year. 
  
 ARTICLE V 
  
 AWARDS 
  
 The MIP provides for cash incentive awards (“Cash
Awards”) and/or equity incentive awards (“Equity Based Awards”). Except as provided herein in the case of Named Executive Officers, target awards may be weighted between Corporate, Business Unit and Individual Goals on such basis as
the Committee determines and the weighting may vary on a Participant by Participant basis. Separate performance objectives and award formulas or matrixes maybe established for Cash Awards and Equity Based Awards. Cash Awards shall be settled in
cash. Equity Based Awards shall be settled in cash and/or Company stock as determined by the Committee. 
  

 2 

 Each Participant shall be assigned a Cash Award target, which shall be paid or provided if the Participant achieves his
or her Cash Award targeted performance goal(s). 
  
 Unless otherwise provided by
the Committee, the Cash Award targets for a plan year of the Chief Executive Officer and each executive officer whose compensation for the prior plan year will appear in the Company’s annual meeting proxy statement for the relevant plan year
(“Named Executive Officers”) will be based solely on achievement of the Corporate Goal, and the Corporate Goal for the Cash Awards for the Named Executive Officers is based on the Company’s return on equity (“ROE”) and
return on assets (“ROA”) for the plan year for which the Cash Award is made compared to a peer group of banks selected by the Committee. If 100% of the Cash Award Corporate Goal is achieved for a plan year, the Chief Executive Officer and
other Named Executive Officers will earn a Cash Award equal to his or her individual Cash Target Award designated by the Committee. If greater than or less than 100% (but at least the Minimum Award Level designated by the Committee) of the Cash
Award Corporate Goal is achieved for a plan year, the Chief Executive Officer and other Named Executive Officers will earn a Cash Award equal to more or less than 100% of his or her individual Cash Target Award (but in no event more than the Maximum
Award Percentage designated by the Committee) based on an Award Matrix designated by the Committee. 
  
 Participants may also be awarded Equity Based Awards consisting of restricted stock, stock options, stock appreciation rights or other stock equivalent awards under the MIP if the Participant achieves his or her
Equity Based Award targeted performance goal(s). All Equity Based Awards granted under the MIP which are payable in or entail the issuance of Company stock will be awarded pursuant to the Company’s 2004 Incentive Stock Plan unless the Committee
specifically determines otherwise (“Stock Plan”). 
  
 Unless otherwise
provided by the Committee, the Equity Based Award targets for plan year of the Chief Executive Officer and other Named Executive Officers, will be based solely on achievement of the Corporate Goal, and the Corporate Goal for the Equity Based Awards
for these Named Executive Officers is based on 5-year total shareholder return of the Company compared to that of a peer group designated by the Committee. If 100% of the Equity Based Award Corporate Goal is achieved for a plan year, the Chief
Executive Officer and other Named Executive Officers will earn an Equity Based Award equal to his or her individual Equity Based Target Award designated by the Committee. If greater than or less than 100% (but at least the Minimum Award Level
designated by the Committee) of the Equity Based Award Corporate Goal is achieved for a plan year, the Chief Executive Officer and other Named Executive Officers will earn a Equity Based Award equal to more or less than 100% of his or her individual
Equity Based Target Award (but in no event more than the Maximum Award Percentage designated by the Committee) based on an Award Matrix designated by the Committee. The Committee will determine the appropriate valuation methodology for determining
the fair market value of such equity award on the date of grant. 
  
 The Cash
Award targets and Equity Based Award targets for all Participants other than the Named Executive Officers shall be as determined by the Committee based on the applicable Corporate Goals, Business Unit Goals or Individual Goals or any combination
thereof. The Business Unit Goals and 

  

 3 

 
Individual Goals shall be established by the Committee based on specific business unit and individual objectives to be reviewed by the Committee annually.
These include but are not limited to loan and deposit growth, margins, productivity, soundness, and customer satisfaction. 
  
 ARTICLE VI 
  
 ENTITLEMENT TO EARNED AWARDS 
  
 With respect to Cash Awards, except as provided below, no earned award shall be payable to a Participant unless that Participant is an employee of the Company and/or any subsidiary from January 1st of that plan year
(or if later, the date he or she is designated as a Participant for that plan year) either through the last day of that plan year or, if so provided by the Committee prior to the end of the plan year to which the award relates, through the date the
award for that plan year is paid (the “Vesting Date”). 
  
 With respect
to Equity Based Awards, no grant evidencing the Equity Based Award will be granted unless the Participant is employed by the Company or any subsidiary on the date of grant. 
  
 In the event of a Participant’s death, total and permanent disability, retirement or involuntary termination without cause during a
plan year, earned awards shall be calculated for that plan year and then pro-rated by multiplying the earned annual award by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months, including the month in which the terminating event
occurred, in the plan year and the denominator of which is twelve. In such event, payout will occur at the same time all other earned and vested award payments are made for that plan year. Otherwise, a Participant who is not employed by the Company
or a subsidiary for any other reason on the Vesting Date for a plan year shall forfeit his or her award for that plan year unless otherwise determined by the Committee. 
  
 ARTICLE VII 
  
 PAYMENT OR PROVISION OF EARNED AND VESTED AWARDS 
  
 Earned and vested Cash Awards shall be paid as soon as practicable following the end of the plan year, however, in no event shall such awards be paid later than March
15th following the plan year, allowing the Company adequate time to formally analyze its financial results according to the regulations and procedures of a public company. 
  
 Earned Equity Based Awards shall be evidenced by an equity compensation grant under the Stock Plan made at such times as may be determined
by the Committee, but in no event later than March 15th following the end of each plan year. Such grants may entail such further service based and/or performance based vesting as the Committee may determine. 
  
 ARTICLE VIII 
  
 NO ENTITLEMENT TO BONUS 
  
 Participants are entitled to a distribution under the MIP only upon the determination by the
Committee that the award is earned, vested and payable, and no Participant shall be entitled to an award under the MIP unless the award is subject to the attainment of performance objectives defined under the MIP.

 ARTICLE IX 
  
 AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION OF PLAN 
  
 The Committee reserves the right to amend or terminate the MIP at any time. 
  
 In the event the MIP is amended by the Committee more than 90 days after the beginning of a plan year in a manner which could reduce the
award payable to a Participant for that plan year, the Participant shall continue to be eligible for incentive awards, if earned, for the plan year in which the amendment of the MIP occurs, with incentive awards being prorated as of the date of the
MIP amendment based on the old and new provision of the MIP, unless otherwise agreed by the Participant. 
  
 In the event the MIP is terminated by the Committee, unless otherwise agreed by a Participant, Participants shall continue to be eligible for incentive awards, if earned, for the plan year in which the termination of
the MIP occurs, with incentive awards being prorated as of the date of the MIP termination. 
  
 ARTICLE X 
  
 NO RIGHT
OF ASSIGNABILITY 
  
 Participant awards shall not be subject to assignment,
pledge or other disposition, nor shall such amounts be subject to garnishment, attachment, transfer by operation of law, or any legal process. 
  
 Nothing contained in the MIP shall confer upon employees any right to continued employment, nor interfere with the right of the Company to terminate a MIP
Participant’s employment with the Company or any subsidiary. Participation in the MIP does not confer rights to participation in other Company programs, including non-qualified retirement or deferred compensation plans or other executive
perquisite programs. 
  
 The MIP is intended to constitute an “unfunded”
plan for incentive compensation. With respect to any award as to which a Participant has an earned and vested interest but which is not yet paid to the Participant, nothing contained herein shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater
than those of a general unsecured creditor of the Company. 
  
 ARTICLE XI 
  
 GOVERNING LAW 
  
 The MIP shall be governed, construed, and administered in accordance with the laws of the
Commonwealth of Virginia. 
  
 In the event any provision of the MIP shall be held
illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of the MIP. 
  
 As adopted by the Committee on February 25, 2005
