 WHEREAS, Sheils is a party to an Employment Agreement initially dated as of the 1st of December, 2015 and as amended (the “Employment Agreement”) under which Sheils serves as Chief Executive Officer and a Director of both First Sentry and FS Holding Company; 

WHEREAS, the Employment Agreement provided Sheils with certain promises including payments on a Change in Control and certain types of

WHEREAS, First Sentry, FS Holding Company, Wesbanco and Wesbanco Bank are parties to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and other good and valuable consideration, the parties agree as follows: 

 

	1.	Effectiveness of this Amendment. This Amendment shall not become effective and shall be null and void if the Merger is not consummated. This Agreement shall become effective immediately and without further action
by any party upon the consummation of the Merger.

and conditions as other Market Presidents of Wesbanco, including eligibility for annual awards of stock options and restricted stock under the Wesbanco, Inc. Key Executive Incentive Bonus Option and Restricted Stock Plan. 

 

	7.	Change in Severance Arrangements. Effective on the Merger Date, Section IV is deleted, except for subsections (C) and (D) which are retained for definitional purposes. Section V(F) is deleted in its entirety
and all such subsections are replaced by the following: “If Sheils is terminated by Wesbanco during the amended term of this Amendment for reasons other than Cause, death or Disability, Wesbanco shall pay Sheils a severance payment equal to his
base pay at the rate then in effect for the shorter of the then remaining term as amended or one year.” 

  

	8.	 Elimination of Change in Control Provision Section VI A. Effective on the Merger Date, Section VI.A. of
the Employment Agreement is deleted in its entirety and all references to Section VI.A. in the Employment Agreement shall be of no force and effect. After the Merger Date, no Change in
