Change in Control Agreement

 Exhibit 10.3 
 CHANGE IN CONTROL AGREEMENT 
 This Change in Control Agreement (this
“Agreement”) is made effective as of October 10, 2012 (the “Effective Date”), by and between Hamilton Bank, a federally-chartered savings bank (the “Bank”) and James F. Hershner (“Executive”). Any
reference to the “Company” shall mean Hamilton Bancorp, Inc., the stock holding company of the Bank. 

WHEREAS, the Bank wishes to assure itself of the continued services of Executive as Executive Vice President of the Bank (the
“Executive Position”) for the period provided in this Agreement; and 
 WHEREAS, in order to induce Executive
to continue employment with the Bank and to provide further incentive to achieve the financial and performance objectives of the Bank, the parties desire to specify the benefits which shall be due to Executive in the event of a Change in Control (as
defined below). 
 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, and upon the other terms
and conditions hereinafter provided, the parties hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Term of Agreement. The term of
this Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and shall continue thereafter for a period of two (2) years. Commencing on the first anniversary date of this Agreement (the “Anniversary Date”) and continuing on each Anniversary
Date thereafter, the term of this Agreement shall renew for an additional year such that the remaining term of this Agreement is always two (2) years provided, however, that in order for this Agreement to renew, the disinterested members of the
Board of Directors of the Bank (the “Board”) must take the following actions within the time frames set forth below prior to each Anniversary Date: (i) at least sixty (60) days prior to the Anniversary Date, conduct a
comprehensive performance evaluation and review of Executive for purposes of determining whether to extend this Agreement; and (ii) affirmatively approve the renewal or non-renewal of this Agreement, which decision shall be included in the
minutes of the Board’s meeting. If the decision of such disinterested members of the Board is not to renew this Agreement, then the Board shall provide Executive with a written notice of non-renewal (“Non-Renewal Notice”) at least
thirty (30) days and not more than sixty (60) days prior to any Anniversary Date, such that this Agreement shall terminate at the end of twenty-four (24) months following such Anniversary Date. The failure of the disinterested members
of the Board to take the actions set forth herein before any Anniversary Date will result in the automatic non-renewal of this Agreement, even if the Board fails to affirmatively issue the Non-Renewal Notice to Executive. If the Board fails to
inform Executive of its determination regarding the renewal or non-renewal of this Agreement, the Executive may request, in writing, the results of the Board’s action (or non-action) and the Board shall, within thirty (30) days of the
receipt of such request, provide a written response to Executive. Reference herein to the term of this Agreement shall refer to both such initial term and such extended terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Company or the Bank
has entered into an agreement to effect a transaction which would be considered a Change in Control as defined below, then the term of this Agreement shall be extended and shall terminate twenty-four (24) months following the date on which the
Change in Control occurs. 

 2. Definitions. The following words and terms shall have the meanings set
forth below for purposes of this Agreement. 
 (a) Base Salary. Executive’s “Base Salary” for purposes of
this Agreement shall mean the annual rate of base salary paid to Executive by the Bank. 
 (b) Change in Control. For
purposes of this Agreement, the term “Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events: 
 (i) Merger: The Company or the Bank merges into or consolidates with another entity, or merges another bank or corporation into the Bank or the Company, and as a result, less than a majority of the
combined voting power of the resulting corporation immediately after the merger or consolidation is held by persons who were stockholders of the Company or the Bank immediately before the merger or consolidation; is specifically excluded from
consideration as a Change in Control under this definition; 
 (ii) Acquisition of Significant Share
Ownership: There is filed, or is required to be filed, a report on Schedule 13D or another form or schedule (other than Schedule 13G) required under Sections 13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, if the schedule
discloses that the filing person or persons acting in concert has or have become the beneficial owner of 25% or more of a class of the Company’s or the Bank’s voting securities; provided, however, this clause (ii) shall not apply to
beneficial ownership of the Company’s or the Bank’s voting shares held in a fiduciary capacity by an entity of which the Company directly or indirectly beneficially owns 50% or more of its outstanding voting securities; 

(iii) Change in Board Composition: During any period of two consecutive years, individuals who constitute the
Company’s or the Bank’s Board of Directors at the beginning of the two-year period cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Company’s or the Bank’s Board of Directors; provided, however, that for purposes of
this clause (iii), each director who is first elected by the board (or first nominated by the board for election by the stockholders or corporators) by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors who were directors at the beginning of
the two-year period or who is appointed to the board as the result of a directive, supervisory agreement or order issued by the primary federal regulator of the Company or the Bank or by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)
shall be deemed to have also been a director at the beginning of such period; or 
 (iv) Sale of Assets:
The Company or the Bank sells to a third party all or substantially all of its assets. 
 (c) Good Reason. For purposes
of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean a termination by Executive, without Executive’s express written consent, any of the following occurs: 
 (i) a material reduction in Executive’s Base Salary or benefits provided to Executive (other than a reduction or elimination of Executive’s benefits under one or more benefit plans maintained by
the Bank as part of a good faith, overall reduction or 

  
 2 

 
elimination of such plans or benefits applicable to all participants in a manner that does not discriminate against Executive (except as such discrimination may be necessary to comply with
applicable law)); 
 (ii) a material reduction in Executive’s authority, duties or responsibilities from the
position and attributes associated with the Executive Position; 
 (iii) a relocation of Executive’s
principal place of employment by more than twenty-five (25) miles from the Bank’s main office location as of the date of this Agreement; or 
 (iv) a material breach of this Agreement by the Bank. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to any termination of employment for Good Reason, Executive must first provide
written notice to the Board within ninety (90) days following the initial existence of the condition, describing the existence of such condition, and the Bank shall thereafter have the right to remedy the condition within thirty (30) days
of the date the Board received the written notice from Executive, but the Bank may waive its right to cure. If the Bank remedies the condition within such thirty (30) day cure period, then no Good Reason shall be deemed to exist with respect to
such condition. If the Bank does not remedy the condition within such thirty (30) day cure period, then Executive may deliver a notice of termination for Good Reason at any time within sixty (60) days following the expiration of such cure
period. 
 (d) Termination for Cause. Termination for Cause shall mean termination because of, in the good faith
determination of the Board, Executive’s: 
 (i) personal dishonesty; 

(ii) willful misconduct; 
 (iii) incompetence; 
 (iv) breach of fiduciary duty involving
personal profit; 
 (v) intentional failure to perform stated duties; 

(vi) willful violation of any law, rule or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses) or final
cease-and-desist order; or 
 (vii) material breach by Executive of any provision of this Agreement. 

3. Benefits upon Termination in Connection with a Change in Control. In the event of Executive’s involuntary
termination of employment by the Bank for reasons other than Termination for Cause, or a voluntary termination of employment by Executive for Good Reason occurring on or after a Change in Control, the Bank shall pay Executive, or in the event of
Executive’s subsequent death, Executive’s beneficiary or estate, as the case may be, as severance pay, a cash lump sum payment equal to two (2) times the sum of his (i) highest rate of Base

  
 3 

 
Salary, and (ii) the highest annual bonus paid to, or earned by, Executive during the current calendar year of Executive’s date of termination or either of the two (2) calendar
years immediately preceding Executive’s date of termination. Such payment shall be payable within thirty (30) days following Executive’s date of termination, and will be subject to applicable withholding taxes. 

In addition, the Bank will continue to provide to Executive with life insurance coverage and non-taxable medical and dental insurance
coverage substantially comparable (and on substantially the same terms and conditions) to the coverage maintained by the Bank for Executive immediately prior to his termination under the same cost-sharing arrangements that apply for active employees
of the Bank as of Executive’s date of termination. Such continued coverage shall cease upon the earlier of: (i) the date which is two (2) years from Executive’s date of termination or (ii) the date on which Executive becomes
a full-time employee of another employer, provided Executive is entitled to the benefits that are substantially similar to the health and welfare benefits provided by the Bank. If the Bank cannot provide one or more of the benefits set forth in this
paragraph because Executive is no longer an employee, applicable rules and regulations prohibit such benefits or the payment of such benefits in the manner contemplated, or it would subject the Bank to penalties, then the Bank shall pay Executive a
cash lump sum payment reasonably estimated to be equal to the value of such benefits or the value of the remaining benefits at the time of such determination. Such cash payment shall be made in a lump sum within thirty (30) days after the later
of Executive’s date of termination or the effective date of the rules or regulations prohibiting such benefits or subjecting the Bank to penalties. 
 4. 280G Cutback. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the aggregate payments or benefits to be made or afforded to Executive under this Agreement ,
either as a stand-alone benefit or when aggregated with other payments to, or for the benefit of, Executive (collectively referred to as the “Change in Control Benefits”) that are contingent on a change in control (as defined under Code
Section 280G), constitute an “excess parachute payment” under Code Section 280G or any successor thereto, and in order to avoid such a result, Executive’s benefits payable under this Agreement shall be reduced by the minimum
amount necessary so that the Change in Control Benefits that are payable to Executive are not subject to penalties under Code Sections 280G and 4999. 
 5. Source of Payments. All payments provided in this Agreement shall be timely paid by check or direct deposit from the general funds of the Bank (or any successor to the Bank). 

6. Entire Agreement. This Agreement embodies the entire agreement between the Bank and Executive with respect to the
matters agreed to herein. All prior agreements between the Bank and Executive with respect to the matters agreed to herein are hereby superseded and shall have no force or effect, except that this Agreement shall not affect or operate to reduce any
benefit or compensation inuring to Executive of a kind elsewhere provided. No provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted to mean that Executive is subject to receiving fewer benefits than those available to Executive without reference to this
Agreement. 
 7. No Attachment. Except as required by law, no right to receive payments under this Agreement shall
be subject to anticipation, commutation, alienation, sale, assignment, 

  
 4 

 
encumbrance, charge, pledge, or hypothecation, or to execution, attachment, levy, or similar process or assignment by operation of law, and any attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to affect any
such action shall be null, void, and of no effect. 
 8. Binding on Successors. The Bank shall require any
successor or assignee, whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise, to all or substantially all the business or assets of the Bank, expressly and unconditionally to assume and agree to perform the Bank’s
obligations under this Agreement, in the same manner and to the same extent that the Bank would be required to perform if no such succession or assignment had taken place. 
 9. Modification and Waiver. 
 (a) This Agreement may not be modified
or amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. 
 (b) No term or condition of this Agreement shall
be deemed to have been waived, nor shall there be any estoppel against the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement, except by written instrument of the party charged with such waiver or estoppel. No such written waiver shall be deemed a
continuing waiver unless specifically stated therein, and each such waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future or as to any act other than that
specifically waived. 
 10. Required Provisions. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the following
provisions shall apply: 
 (a) The Board may terminate Executive’s employment at any time, but any termination by the
Bank’s Board other than termination for Cause shall not prejudice Executive’s right to compensation or other benefits under this Agreement. Executive shall have no right to receive compensation or other benefits for any period after his
termination for Cause. 
 (b) If Executive is suspended from office and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the
conduct of the Bank’s affairs by a notice served under Section 8(e)(3) (12 U.S.C. §1818(e)(3)) or 8(g)(1) (12 U.S.C. §1818(g)(1)) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, the Bank’s obligations under this Agreement shall
be suspended as of the date of service, unless stayed by appropriate proceedings. If the charges in the notice are dismissed, the Bank may in its discretion (i) pay Executive all or part of the compensation withheld while its Agreement
obligations were suspended and (ii) reinstate (in whole or in part) any of its obligations which were suspended. 
 (c) If
Executive is removed and/or permanently prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Bank’s affairs by an order issued under Section 8(e)(4) (12 U.S.C. §1818(e)(4)) or 8(g)(1) (12 U.S.C. §1818(g)(1)) of the Federal Deposit
Insurance Act, all obligations of the Bank under this Agreement shall terminate as of the effective date of the order, but vested rights of the contracting parties shall not be affected. 

(d) If the Bank is in default as defined in Section 3(x)(1) (12 U.S.C. §1813(x)(1)) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, all
obligations under this Agreement shall terminate as of the date of default, but this paragraph shall not affect any vested rights of the contracting parties. 

  
 5 

 (e) All obligations under this Agreement shall be terminated, except to the extent
determined that continuation of this Agreement is necessary for the continued operation of the Bank: (i) by the Comptroller of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”) or his or her designee, at the time the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) enters into an agreement to provide assistance to or on behalf of the Bank under the authority contained in Section 13(c) (12 U.S.C. §1823(c)) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act; or
(ii) by the Comptroller or his or her designee at the time the Comptroller or his or her designee approves a supervisory merger to resolve problems related to operation of the Bank or when the Bank is determined by the Comptroller to be in an
unsafe or unsound condition. Any rights of the parties that have already vested, however, shall not be affected by such action. 

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, any payments to Executive by the Bank or the Company, whether pursuant to
this Agreement or otherwise, are subject to and conditioned upon their compliance with Section 18(k) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. § 1828(k), and the regulations promulgated thereunder in 12 C.F.R. Part 359.

 (g) Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, Executive’s employment (other than Termination for
Cause) shall not be deemed to have been terminated unless and until Executive has a Separation from Service within the meaning of Code Section 409A. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Separation from Service” shall have occurred if
the Bank and Executive reasonably anticipate that either no further services will be performed by Executive after the date of termination (whether as an employee or as an independent contractor) or the level of further services performed is less
than fifty (50) percent of the average level of bona fide services in the thirty-six (36) months immediately preceding the termination. For all purposes hereunder, the definition of Separation from Service shall be interpreted consistent
with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)(ii). 
 (h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Executive is a
Specified Employee (as defined herein), then, solely, to the extent required to avoid penalties under Code Section 409A, Executive’s payments shall be delayed until the first day of the seventh month following Executive’s Separation
from Service. A “Specified Employee” shall be interpreted to comply with Code Section 409A and shall mean a key employee within the meaning of Code Section 416(i) (without regard to paragraph 5 thereof), but an individual shall
be a “Specified Employee” only if the Bank or Company is or becomes a publicly traded company. 
 11. Governing
Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Maryland but only to the extent not superseded by federal law. 
 12. Arbitration. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by binding arbitration, as an alternative to civil litigation and
without any trial by jury to resolve such claims, conducted by a single arbitrator mutually acceptable to the Bank and Executive, sitting in a location selected by the Bank within fifty (50) miles from the main office of the Bank, in accordance
with the rules of the American Arbitration Association’s National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes then in effect. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s award in any court having jurisdiction.

 8Change in Control Agreement

 Exhibit 10.4 
 CHANGE IN CONTROL AGREEMENT 
 This Change in Control Agreement (this
“Agreement”) is made effective as of October 10, 2012 (the “Effective Date”), by and between Hamilton Bank, a federally-chartered savings bank (the “Bank”) and John P. Marzullo (“Executive”). Any
reference to the “Company” shall mean Hamilton Bancorp, Inc., the stock holding company of the Bank. 

WHEREAS, the Bank wishes to assure itself of the continued services of Executive as Vice President and Treasurer of the Bank (the
“Executive Position”) for the period provided in this Agreement; and 
 WHEREAS, in order to induce Executive
to continue employment with the Bank and to provide further incentive to achieve the financial and performance objectives of the Bank, the parties desire to specify the benefits which shall be due to Executive in the event of a Change in Control (as
defined below). 
 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, and upon the other terms
and conditions hereinafter provided, the parties hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Term of Agreement. The term of
this Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and shall continue thereafter for a period of two (2) years. Commencing on the first anniversary date of this Agreement (the “Anniversary Date”) and continuing on each Anniversary
Date thereafter, the term of this Agreement shall renew for an additional year such that the remaining term of this Agreement is always two (2) years provided, however, that in order for this Agreement to renew, the disinterested members of the
Board of Directors of the Bank (the “Board”) must take the following actions within the time frames set forth below prior to each Anniversary Date: (i) at least sixty (60) days prior to the Anniversary Date, conduct a
comprehensive performance evaluation and review of Executive for purposes of determining whether to extend this Agreement; and (ii) affirmatively approve the renewal or non-renewal of this Agreement, which decision shall be included in the
minutes of the Board’s meeting. If the decision of such disinterested members of the Board is not to renew this Agreement, then the Board shall provide Executive with a written notice of non-renewal (“Non-Renewal Notice”) at least
thirty (30) days and not more than sixty (60) days prior to any Anniversary Date, such that this Agreement shall terminate at the end of twenty-four (24) months following such Anniversary Date. The failure of the disinterested members
of the Board to take the actions set forth herein before any Anniversary Date will result in the automatic non-renewal of this Agreement, even if the Board fails to affirmatively issue the Non-Renewal Notice to Executive. If the Board fails to
inform Executive of its determination regarding the renewal or non-renewal of this Agreement, the Executive may request, in writing, the results of the Board’s action (or non-action) and the Board shall, within thirty (30) days of the
receipt of such request, provide a written response to Executive. Reference herein to the term of this Agreement shall refer to both such initial term and such extended terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Company or the Bank
has entered into an agreement to effect a transaction which would be considered a Change in Control as defined below, then the term of this Agreement shall be extended and shall terminate twenty-four (24) months following the date on which the
Change in Control occurs. 

 2. Definitions. The following words and terms shall have the meanings set
forth below for purposes of this Agreement. 
 (a) Base Salary. Executive’s “Base Salary” for purposes of
this Agreement shall mean the annual rate of base salary paid to Executive by the Bank. 
 (b) Change in Control. For
purposes of this Agreement, the term “Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events: 
 (i) Merger: The Company or the Bank merges into or consolidates with another entity, or merges another bank or corporation into the Bank or the Company, and as a result, less than a majority of the
combined voting power of the resulting corporation immediately after the merger or consolidation is held by persons who were stockholders of the Company or the Bank immediately before the merger or consolidation; is specifically excluded from
consideration as a Change in Control under this definition; 
 (ii) Acquisition of Significant Share
Ownership: There is filed, or is required to be filed, a report on Schedule 13D or another form or schedule (other than Schedule 13G) required under Sections 13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, if the schedule
discloses that the filing person or persons acting in concert has or have become the beneficial owner of 25% or more of a class of the Company’s or the Bank’s voting securities; provided, however, this clause (ii) shall not apply to
beneficial ownership of the Company’s or the Bank’s voting shares held in a fiduciary capacity by an entity of which the Company directly or indirectly beneficially owns 50% or more of its outstanding voting securities; 

(iii) Change in Board Composition: During any period of two consecutive years, individuals who constitute the
Company’s or the Bank’s Board of Directors at the beginning of the two-year period cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Company’s or the Bank’s Board of Directors; provided, however, that for purposes of
this clause (iii), each director who is first elected by the board (or first nominated by the board for election by the stockholders or corporators) by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors who were directors at the beginning of
the two-year period or who is appointed to the board as the result of a directive, supervisory agreement or order issued by the primary federal regulator of the Company or the Bank or by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)
shall be deemed to have also been a director at the beginning of such period; or 
 (iv) Sale of Assets:
The Company or the Bank sells to a third party all or substantially all of its assets. 
 (c) Good Reason. For purposes
of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean a termination by Executive, without Executive’s express written consent, any of the following occurs: 
 (i) a material reduction in Executive’s Base Salary or benefits provided to Executive (other than a reduction or elimination of Executive’s benefits under one or more benefit plans maintained by
the Bank as part of a good faith, overall reduction or 

  
 2 

 
elimination of such plans or benefits applicable to all participants in a manner that does not discriminate against Executive (except as such discrimination may be necessary to comply with
applicable law)); 
 (ii) a material reduction in Executive’s authority, duties or responsibilities from the
position and attributes associated with the Executive Position; 
 (iii) a relocation of Executive’s
principal place of employment by more than twenty-five (25) miles from the Bank’s main office location as of the date of this Agreement; or 
 (iv) a material breach of this Agreement by the Bank. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to any termination of employment for Good Reason, Executive must first provide
written notice to the Board within ninety (90) days following the initial existence of the condition, describing the existence of such condition, and the Bank shall thereafter have the right to remedy the condition within thirty (30) days
of the date the Board received the written notice from Executive, but the Bank may waive its right to cure. If the Bank remedies the condition within such thirty (30) day cure period, then no Good Reason shall be deemed to exist with respect to
such condition. If the Bank does not remedy the condition within such thirty (30) day cure period, then Executive may deliver a notice of termination for Good Reason at any time within sixty (60) days following the expiration of such cure
period. 
 (d) Termination for Cause. Termination for Cause shall mean termination because of, in the good faith
determination of the Board, Executive’s: 
 (i) personal dishonesty; 

(ii) willful misconduct; 
 (iii) incompetence; 
 (iv) breach of fiduciary duty involving
personal profit; 
 (v) intentional failure to perform stated duties; 

(vi) willful violation of any law, rule or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses) or final
cease-and-desist order; or 
 (vii) material breach by Executive of any provision of this Agreement. 

3. Benefits upon Termination in Connection with a Change in Control. In the event of Executive’s involuntary
termination of employment by the Bank for reasons other than Termination for Cause, or a voluntary termination of employment by Executive for Good Reason occurring on or after a Change in Control, the Bank shall pay Executive, or in the event of
Executive’s subsequent death, Executive’s beneficiary or estate, as the case may be, as severance pay, a cash lump sum payment equal to two (2) times the sum of his (i) highest rate of Base

  
 3 

 
Salary, and (ii) the highest annual bonus paid to, or earned by, Executive during the current calendar year of Executive’s date of termination or either of the two (2) calendar
years immediately preceding Executive’s date of termination. Such payment shall be payable within thirty (30) days following Executive’s date of termination, and will be subject to applicable withholding taxes. 

In addition, the Bank will continue to provide to Executive with life insurance coverage and non-taxable medical and dental insurance
coverage substantially comparable (and on substantially the same terms and conditions) to the coverage maintained by the Bank for Executive immediately prior to his termination under the same cost-sharing arrangements that apply for active employees
of the Bank as of Executive’s date of termination. Such continued coverage shall cease upon the earlier of: (i) the date which is two (2) years from Executive’s date of termination or (ii) the date on which Executive becomes
a full-time employee of another employer, provided Executive is entitled to the benefits that are substantially similar to the health and welfare benefits provided by the Bank. If the Bank cannot provide one or more of the benefits set forth in this
paragraph because Executive is no longer an employee, applicable rules and regulations prohibit such benefits or the payment of such benefits in the manner contemplated, or it would subject the Bank to penalties, then the Bank shall pay Executive a
cash lump sum payment reasonably estimated to be equal to the value of such benefits or the value of the remaining benefits at the time of such determination. Such cash payment shall be made in a lump sum within thirty (30) days after the later
of Executive’s date of termination or the effective date of the rules or regulations prohibiting such benefits or subjecting the Bank to penalties. 
 4. 280G Cutback. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the aggregate payments or benefits to be made or afforded to Executive under this Agreement ,
either as a stand-alone benefit or when aggregated with other payments to, or for the benefit of, Executive (collectively referred to as the “Change in Control Benefits”) that are contingent on a change in control (as defined under Code
Section 280G), constitute an “excess parachute payment” under Code Section 280G or any successor thereto, and in order to avoid such a result, Executive’s benefits payable under this Agreement shall be reduced by the minimum
amount necessary so that the Change in Control Benefits that are payable to Executive are not subject to penalties under Code Sections 280G and 4999. 
 5. Source of Payments. All payments provided in this Agreement shall be timely paid by check or direct deposit from the general funds of the Bank (or any successor to the Bank). 

6. Entire Agreement. This Agreement embodies the entire agreement between the Bank and Executive with respect to the
matters agreed to herein. All prior agreements between the Bank and Executive with respect to the matters agreed to herein are hereby superseded and shall have no force or effect, except that this Agreement shall not affect or operate to reduce any
benefit or compensation inuring to Executive of a kind elsewhere provided. No provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted to mean that Executive is subject to receiving fewer benefits than those available to Executive without reference to this
Agreement. 
 7. No Attachment. Except as required by law, no right to receive payments under this Agreement shall
be subject to anticipation, commutation, alienation, sale, assignment, 

  
 4 

 
encumbrance, charge, pledge, or hypothecation, or to execution, attachment, levy, or similar process or assignment by operation of law, and any attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to affect any
such action shall be null, void, and of no effect. 
 8. Binding on Successors. The Bank shall require any
successor or assignee, whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise, to all or substantially all the business or assets of the Bank, expressly and unconditionally to assume and agree to perform the Bank’s
obligations under this Agreement, in the same manner and to the same extent that the Bank would be required to perform if no such succession or assignment had taken place. 
 9. Modification and Waiver. 
 (a) This Agreement may not be
modified or amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. 
 (b) No term or condition of this
Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall there be any estoppel against the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement, except by written instrument of the party charged with such waiver or estoppel. No such written waiver shall
be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated therein, and each such waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future or as to any act other
than that specifically waived. 
 10. Required Provisions. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
following provisions shall apply: 
 (a) The Board may terminate Executive’s employment at any time, but any termination by
the Bank’s Board other than termination for Cause shall not prejudice Executive’s right to compensation or other benefits under this Agreement. Executive shall have no right to receive compensation or other benefits for any period after
his termination for Cause. 
 (b) If Executive is suspended from office and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the
conduct of the Bank’s affairs by a notice served under Section 8(e)(3) (12 U.S.C. §1818(e)(3)) or 8(g)(1) (12 U.S.C. §1818(g)(1)) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, the Bank’s obligations under this Agreement shall
be suspended as of the date of service, unless stayed by appropriate proceedings. If the charges in the notice are dismissed, the Bank may in its discretion (i) pay Executive all or part of the compensation withheld while its Agreement
obligations were suspended and (ii) reinstate (in whole or in part) any of its obligations which were suspended. 
 (c) If
Executive is removed and/or permanently prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Bank’s affairs by an order issued under Section 8(e)(4) (12 U.S.C. §1818(e)(4)) or 8(g)(1) (12 U.S.C. §1818(g)(1)) of the Federal Deposit
Insurance Act, all obligations of the Bank under this Agreement shall terminate as of the effective date of the order, but vested rights of the contracting parties shall not be affected. 

(d) If the Bank is in default as defined in Section 3(x)(1) (12 U.S.C. §1813(x)(1)) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, all
obligations under this Agreement shall terminate as of the date of default, but this paragraph shall not affect any vested rights of the contracting parties. 

  
 5 

 (e) All obligations under this Agreement shall be terminated, except to the extent
determined that continuation of this Agreement is necessary for the continued operation of the Bank: (i) by the Comptroller of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”) or his or her designee, at the time the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) enters into an agreement to provide assistance to or on behalf of the Bank under the authority contained in Section 13(c) (12 U.S.C. §1823(c)) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act; or
(ii) by the Comptroller or his or her designee at the time the Comptroller or his or her designee approves a supervisory merger to resolve problems related to operation of the Bank or when the Bank is determined by the Comptroller to be in an
unsafe or unsound condition. Any rights of the parties that have already vested, however, shall not be affected by such action. 

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, any payments to Executive by the Bank or the Company, whether pursuant to
this Agreement or otherwise, are subject to and conditioned upon their compliance with Section 18(k) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. § 1828(k), and the regulations promulgated thereunder in 12 C.F.R. Part 359.

 (g) Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, Executive’s employment (other than Termination for
Cause) shall not be deemed to have been terminated unless and until Executive has a Separation from Service within the meaning of Code Section 409A. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Separation from Service” shall have occurred if
the Bank and Executive reasonably anticipate that either no further services will be performed by Executive after the date of termination (whether as an employee or as an independent contractor) or the level of further services performed is less
than fifty (50) percent of the average level of bona fide services in the thirty-six (36) months immediately preceding the termination. For all purposes hereunder, the definition of Separation from Service shall be interpreted consistent
with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)(ii). 
 (h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Executive is a
Specified Employee (as defined herein), then, solely, to the extent required to avoid penalties under Code Section 409A, Executive’s payments shall be delayed until the first day of the seventh month following Executive’s Separation
from Service. A “Specified Employee” shall be interpreted to comply with Code Section 409A and shall mean a key employee within the meaning of Code Section 416(i) (without regard to paragraph 5 thereof), but an individual shall
be a “Specified Employee” only if the Bank or Company is or becomes a publicly traded company. 
 11. Governing
Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Maryland but only to the extent not superseded by federal law. 
 12. Arbitration. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by binding arbitration, as an alternative to civil litigation and
without any trial by jury to resolve such claims, conducted by a single arbitrator mutually acceptable to the Bank and Executive, sitting in a location selected by the Bank within fifty (50) miles from the main office of the Bank, in accordance
with the rules of the American Arbitration Association’s National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes then in effect. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s award in any court having jurisdiction.
