       7.4    CONFIDENTIALITY. The nature and terms of this Agreement are
strictly confidential and have not been and shall not be disclosed by Consultant
at any time to any person other than his lawyer, his accountant, or his
immediate family without the prior written consent of an Employer, except as

       if no such succession had taken place. Failure of the Employer to obtain
       such assumption and agreement prior to the effective date of such
       succession shall be a breach of this Agreement and shall entitle
       Consultant to compensation and benefits from the Employer under Section 4

       hereunder if the Term continued.

       hereunder (other than amounts which, by their terms, terminate upon the
       death of Consultant), all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein,
       shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to the

Georgia corporation (the "Employer"), and SOUTHWEST GEORGIA BANK, a Georgia bank
and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Employer (the "Bank"). References herein to
the "Employer" shall refer to both the Employer and the Bank, as the context
requires, and the Employer and the Bank shall have the option to perform the
obligations provided herein, in their sole discretion, through either entity;
provided, however, that for purposes of such obligations and the rights of the
Employer under this Agreement, Employer and Bank shall be treated as one and the
same. Executive may enforce his rights against either the Employer, the Bank, or
both the Employer and the Bank.

       WHEREAS, Employer has entered into that certain Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization (the "Acquisition Agreement"), dated December ___, 2003, with
First Bank Holding Company and Sylvester Banking Company (together,
"Sylvester"), for whom Executive serves as a key executive officer;

       WHEREAS, Executive possesses significant knowledge and information with
respect to Sylvester, which knowledge and information includes trade secrets of
Sylvester, which will be increased, developed and enhanced through Executive's
continued employment by Employer following the acquisition of Sylvester; and

       WHEREAS, Employer desires to retain Executive following the acquisition
of Sylvester by Employer pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement on the terms and
conditions contained herein;

       NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises
and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto, intending to be legally
bound, hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1.    EMPLOYMENT.

       Subject to the terms hereof, the Employer hereby employs Executive, and
Executive hereby accepts such employment. Executive will serve as Senior Vice
President of the Bank or in such other executive capacity as the Board of
Directors of Employer (the "Board of Directors") may hereafter from time to time
determine. Executive agrees to devote his full business time and best efforts to
the performance of the duties that Employer may assign Executive from time to
time; provided that the Executive may serve on boards of directors or trustees
of other companies and organizations, as long as such service does not
materially interfere with the performance of his duties hereunder.

SECTION 2.    DEFINITIONS. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms
shall have the meanings specified below:

              confesses to any felony or any act of fraud, misappropriation or
              embezzlement, (ii) if Executive fails to comply with the terms of
              this Agreement, and, within ten (10) days after written notice
              from Employer of such failure, Executive has not corrected such
              failure or, having once received such notice of failure and having
              so corrected such failure, Executive at any time thereafter again
              so fails, or (iii) if Executive violates any of the provisions
              contained in Section 5 of this Agreement.

                            Bank outstanding immediately before such merger or

       Reconciliation Act ("COBRA") until the earlier of (i) the end of the Term
       or (ii) Executive is determined to be "disabled" under the Employer's
       disability insurance.

              (b)    If Executive's employment hereunder is terminated by
       Employer pursuant to Section 3.2(d) hereof, then, in addition to any
       other amount payable hereunder, Employer shall continue to pay Executive
       his normal, current salary pursuant to Section 4.1(a) (on the same basis
       as if Executive continued to serve as an employee hereunder for such
       applicable period) and offer paid insurance continuation rights under
       COBRA for the Term. If Executive's employment is terminated pursuant to
       Section

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

       3.2(a) or (b) hereof or if Executive's employment is terminated by
       Employer pursuant to Section 3.2(d), all options to purchase stock of the
       Employer or an affiliate of the Employer granted to Executive shall
       immediately become exercisable upon such termination. In the case of a
       termination pursuant to Section 3.2(a) or (b) hereof, the options will
       expire in accordance with their respective scheduled expiration dates. In
       the case of a termination by Employer pursuant to Section 3.2(d) hereof,
       the options will expire on the first anniversary after the effective date
       of the termination of Executive's employment hereunder. Upon the death of
       Executive, any options that Executive would otherwise be entitled to
       exercise hereunder may be exercised by his personal representatives or
       heirs, as applicable. If Executive's employment is terminated by Employer
       pursuant to Section 3.2(c) or by Executive pursuant to Section 3.2(d),
       those options which are exercisable as of the date of such termination
       shall be exercisable for a period of ninety (90) days after such
       termination (and all other options not then exercisable shall be
       forfeited as of such date), and after such 90-day period, all unexercised
       options will expire. To the extent necessary, this provision shall be
       deemed an amendment of any option agreement between the Executive and the
       Employer or an affiliate of the Employer.

              (c)    If a Change in Control occurs during the Term and
       Executive's employment is terminated within six (6) months prior to or
       eighteen (18) months following the date of the Change in Control, and if
       such termination is by Employer pursuant to Section 3.2(d) hereof or a
       termination by Executive for Good Reason, then, in addition to any other
       amount payable hereunder, Employer shall continue to pay Executive his
       normal, current salary pursuant to Section 4.1(a) (on the same basis as
       if Executive continued to serve as an employee hereunder for such
       applicable period) and offer paid insurance continuation rights under
       COBRA for one (1) year following the Termination Date.

              (d)    Except as provided above, upon the termination of the
       employment of Executive hereunder for any reason, Executive shall be
       entitled to all compensation and benefits earned or accrued under Section
       4.1 as of Termination Date, but from and after the Termination Date no
       additional compensation or benefits shall be earned by Executive
       hereunder. Executive shall be deemed to have earned any Bonus payable
       with respect to the calendar year in which the Termination Date occurs on
       a prorated basis (based on the number of days in such calendar year
       through and including the Termination Date divided by 365) based upon the
       year to date financials and performance of the Employer and assuming
       performance at the target level for any individual performance criteria.
       Any such Bonus shall be payable upon termination.

              (e)    Unless Executive's employment hereunder is terminated by
       Employer pursuant to Section 3.2(a) or 3.2(d), the covenants in Section 5
       of this Agreement shall survive termination of Employee's employment, for
       the full Noncompete Period and Nonsolicitation Period as though the
       engagement lasted for the full Term described in Section 3.1.

       4.4    LIMITATION ON BENEFITS UPON TERMINATION IN CONNECTION WITH A
              CHANGE IN CONTROL.

              (a)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
       any benefits payable or to be provided to Executive by the Employer or
       its affiliates, whether pursuant

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

       to this Agreement or otherwise, which are treated as Severance Payments
       shall, but only to the extent necessary, be modified or reduced in the
       manner provided in (b) below so that the benefits payable or to be
       provided to Executive under this Agreement that are treated as Severance
       Payments, as well as any payments or benefits provided outside of this
       Agreement that are so treated, shall not cause the Employer to have paid
       an Excess Severance Payment. In computing such amount, the parties shall
       take into account all provisions of Section 280G of the Code, and the
       regulations thereunder, including making appropriate adjustments to such
       calculation for amounts established to be Reasonable Compensation.

              (b)    In the event that the amount of any Severance Payments
       which would be payable to or for the benefit of Executive under this
       Agreement must be modified or reduced to comply with this Section 4.4,
       Executive shall direct which Severance Payments are to be modified or
       reduced; provided, however, that no increase in the amount of any payment
       or change in the timing of the payment shall be made without the consent
       of the Employer.

              (c)    This Section 4.4 shall be interpreted so as to avoid the
       imposition of excise taxes on Executive under Section 4999 of the Code or
       the disallowance of a deduction to the Employer pursuant to Section
       280G(a) of the Code with respect to amounts payable under this Agreement
       or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will any of the
       provisions of this Section 4.4 create, without the consent of Executive,
       an obligation on the part of Executive to refund any amount to the
       Employer following payment of such amount.

              (d)    In addition to the limits otherwise provided in this
       Section 4.4, to the extent permitted by law, Executive may in his sole
       discretion elect to reduce any payments he may be eligible to receive
       under this Agreement to prevent the imposition of excise taxes on
       Executive under Section 4999 of the Code.

SECTION 5.  PARTIAL RESTRAINTS ON COMPETITION.

       5.1    TRADE NAME. Executive shall not, directly or by assisting others,
own, manage, operate, join, control or participate in the ownership, management,
operation or control of, or be connected in any manner with, any business
conducted under any corporate or trade name of the Employer or any of its
affiliates or name similar thereto, without the prior written consent of the
Employer.

       5.2    CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

              (a)    Executive hereby agrees that (i) with regard to each item
       constituting all or any portion of the Trade Secrets, at all times during
       the Term and all times during which such item continues to constitute a
       Trade Secret under applicable law; and (ii) with regard to any
       Confidential Information, during the Term and the Noncompete Period:

                              (1) Executive shall hold in confidence all Trade
                     Secrets and all Confidential Information and will not,
                     either directly or indirectly, use, sell, lend, lease,
                     distribute, license, give, transfer, assign, show,
                     disclose, disseminate, reproduce, copy, appropriate or
                     otherwise communicate any Trade Secrets or Confidential
                     Information, without the prior written consent of the
                     Employer; and

                              (2) Executive shall immediately notify the
                     Employer of any unauthorized disclosure or use of any Trade
                     Secrets or Confidential Information of which Executive
                     becomes aware. Executive shall assist the Employer, to the
                     extent necessary, in the procurement or any protection of
                     the Employer's rights to or in any of the Trade Secrets or
                     Confidential Information.

       5.3    NONCOMPETITION.

              (a)    The parties hereto acknowledge that Executive is conducting
       Employer Activities throughout the Territory. Executive acknowledges that
       to protect adequately the interest of the Employer in the business of the
       Employer it is essential that any noncompete covenant with respect
       thereto cover all Employer Activities and the entire Territory.

              (b)    Executive hereby agrees that, during the Term and the
       Noncompete Period, Executive will not, in the Territory, either directly
       or indirectly, alone or in conjunction with any other party, accept,
       enter into or take any action in conjunction with or in furtherance of a
       Competitive Position. Executive shall notify the Employer promptly in
       writing if Executive receives an offer of a Competitive Position during
       the Noncompete Term, and such notice shall describe all material terms of
       such offer.

              (c)    Nothing contained in this Section 5 shall prohibit
       Executive from acquiring not more than two percent (2%) of any Employer
       or bank whose common stock is publicly traded on a national securities
       exchange or in the over-the-counter market.

       5.4    NONSOLICITATION DURING TERM. Executive hereby agrees that
Executive will not, during the Term, either directly or indirectly, alone or in
conjunction with any other party solicit, divert or appropriate or attempt to
solicit, divert or appropriate, any Customer for the purpose of providing the
Customer with services or products competitive with those offered by the
Employer during the Term.

<PAGE>

       5.5    NONSOLICITATION DURING NONSOLICITATION PERIOD. Executive hereby
agrees that Executive will not, during the Nonsolicitation Period, either
directly or indirectly, alone or in conjunction with any other party solicit,
divert or appropriate or attempt to solicit, divert or appropriate, any (i)
employee of the Employer or the Bank, or (ii) Customer for the purpose of
providing the Customer with services or products competitive with those offered
by Employer or Bank during the Term; provided, however, that the covenant in
this clause shall limit Executive's conduct only with respect to those Customers
with whom Executive had substantial contact (through direct or supervisory
interaction with the Customer or the Customer's account) during a period of time
up to but no greater than two (2) years prior to the last day of the Term.

       5.6    NONDISPARGEMENT. Executive hereby agrees that Executive will not,
during the Term and Nonsolitication Period hereof, either directly or
indirectly, alone or in conjunction with any other party, make statements to
Customers or suppliers of Employer or to other members of the public that are in
any way disparaging or negative towards Employer, the Employer's products or
services, or Employee's representatives (including its Board of Directors) or
employees.

SECTION 6. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT.

       In consideration for, and as a material inducement to enter into, this
Agreement, Executive agrees to terminate that certain Employment Agreement,
dated March 10, 1987, by and between Executive and Sylvester Banking Company.
Neither Employer or Sylvester shall owe Executive any further amounts or have
any obligations to Executive thereunder. Executive shall have no claims or
rights against Employer or Sylvester thereunder.

SECTION 7.  MISCELLANEOUS.

       7.1    NO OBLIGATION TO MITIGATE. Executive shall not be required to
 mitigate the amount of any payment provided for under this Agreement by seeking
 other employment, nor shall the amount of any payment provided for under this
 Agreement be reduced by any compensation earned by Executive as a result of
 employment by another company after the Termination Date or otherwise.

       7.2    CONTRACT NON-ASSIGNABLE. The parties acknowledge that this
 Agreement has been entered into due to, among other things, the special skills
 and knowledge of Executive, and agree that this Agreement may not be assigned
 or transferred by Executive.

       7.3    SUCCESSORS; BINDING AGREEMENT.

              (a)    In addition to any obligations imposed by law upon any
       successor to the Employer, the Employer will require any successor
       (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or
       otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the
       Employer or that acquires a controlling stock interest in the Employer to
       expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement, in the same manner
       and to the same extent that the Employer would be required to perform it
       if no such succession had taken place. Failure of the Employer to obtain
       such assumption and agreement prior to the effective date of such
       succession shall be a breach of this Agreement and shall entitle
       Executive to compensation and benefits from the Employer under Section 4
       in the

                                      -10-

       amount and on the same terms as Executive would be entitled to hereunder
       if Executive were to terminate Executive's employment for Good Reason.

              (b)    This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
       enforceable by Executive's personal or legal representative, executors,
       administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees.
       If Executive shall die while any amount is still payable to Executive
       hereunder (other than amounts which, by their terms, terminate upon the
       death of Executive), all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein,
       shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to the
       executors, personal representatives or administrators of Executive's
       estate.

       7.4    NOTICES. All notices, requests, demands and other communications
required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have

unenforceability shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of
the remaining provisions or covenants, or any part thereof, of this Agreement,
all of which shall remain in full force and effect.

       7.6    WAIVER. Failure of either party to insist, in one or more
instances, on performance by the other in strict accordance with the terms and

or condition or of any other term or condition of this Agreement, unless such
waiver is contained in a writing signed by the party making the waiver.

       7.9    DISPUTES; LEGAL FEES; INDEMNIFICATION.

              (a)    DISPUTES. All claims by Executive for compensation and
       benefits under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be directed
       to and be determined by the Board of Directors. Any denial by the Board
       of Directors of a claim for benefits under this Agreement shall be
       provided in writing to Executive within thirty (30) days of such decision
       and shall set forth the specific reasons for the denial and the specific
       provisions of this Agreement relied upon. The Board of Directors shall
       afford a reasonable opportunity to Executive for a review of its decision
       denying a claim and shall further allow Executive to appeal in writing to
       the Board of Directors a decision of the Board of Directors within sixty
       (60) days after notification by the Board of Directors that Executive's
       claim has been denied. To the extent permitted by applicable law, any
       further dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this
       Agreement shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in Atlanta,
       Georgia, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration
       Association then in effect. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator's
       award in any court having jurisdiction.

              (b)    LEGAL FEES. If, in connection with a Change in Control,
       Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason or if the Employer
       involuntarily terminates Executive without Cause, then, in the event
       Executive incurs legal fees and other expenses in seeking to obtain or to
       enforce any rights or benefits provided by this Agreement and is
       successful, in whole or in part, in obtaining or enforcing any such
       rights or benefits through settlement, mediation, arbitration or
       otherwise, the Employer shall promptly pay Executive's reasonable legal
       fees and expenses and related costs incurred in enforcing this Agreement
       including, without limitation, attorneys fees and expenses, experts fees
       and expenses, investigative fees, and travel expenses. Except to the
       extent provided in the preceding sentence, each party shall pay its own
       legal fees and other expenses associated with any dispute under this
       Agreement.

              (c)    INDEMNIFICATION. During the Term of this Agreement and
       after Executive's termination, the Employer shall indemnify Executive and
       hold Executive harmless from and against any claim, performance as an
       officer, director or employee of the Employer or any of its subsidiaries
       or other affiliates or in any other capacity, including any fiduciary
       capacity, in which Executive serves at the Employer's request, in each
       case to the maximum extent permitted by law and under the Employer's
       Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws (the "Governing Documents"),
       provided that in no event shall the protection afforded to Executive
       hereunder be less than that afforded under the Governing Documents as in
       effect on the date of this Agreement except from changes mandated by law.

       7.10   ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement is intended by the parties hereto
to be the final expression of their agreement with respect to the subject matter
hereof and is the complete and exclusive statement of the terms thereof,
notwithstanding any representations, statements or agreements to the contrary.

been made to or with him by any person to cause him to execute this Agreement,
and that he fully understands the meaning and intent of this Agreement,
including but not limited to, its final and binding effect.
