Exhibit 10.12
Atlantic Union Bankshares Corporation 
Management Incentive Plan
​

​
This document (the “Incentive Document”), together with the Atlantic Union Bankshares Corporation Incentive Plan Terms and Conditions (“T&C”) which are incorporated herein by reference, sets forth the Atlantic Union Bankshares Corporation Management Incentive Plan (collectively, the “Plan”).  The Plan is offered by Atlantic Union Bankshares Corporation (“Atlantic Union”), its subsidiary Atlantic Union Bank (the “Bank”), to the undersigned eligible executive (the “Participant”). 
​
​
1.  Eligible Positions; Participation
​
Participation is limited to those executives recommended by the Chief Executive Officer (the “Plan Sponsor”) and approved by the Committee.  The Committee shall retain the discretion to include as a Participant any otherwise-eligible executive hired or promoted after the commencement of a Plan Year.   
​
​
2.Basis of Incentive Compensation Awards
​
The Plan is a cash award plan.  The Participant’s incentive compensation award under the Plan is based on an incentive target that is approved at the beginning of the Plan Year by the Committee in its discretion.  The incentive compensation award is expressed as a percentage of the Participant’s base salary at the end of the Plan Year, and may be awarded if either or both the Atlantic Union corporate performance goals (the “Corporate Goals”) and the Participant’s individual performance goals (the “Individual Goals”) are achieved.    In no event shall a Participant receive payment under the Plan that exceeds 150% of the Participant’s base salary as of the end of the Plan Year.
​
​
3.Plan Details
​
The amount of an incentive compensation award that the Participant is entitled to receive under the Plan is determined based on the Participant’s incentive target and weighting, achievement of the approved performance goals and taking into account individual performance specifically attributable to each participant and reflective of their role and area of responsibility.
​
A.Award Targets and Weightings
​
Each Participant shall be assigned an incentive target, calculated as a percentage of the Participant’s base salary, which may be awarded if Atlantic Union and the Participant achieve targeted performance goals.  
​
The incentive compensation award shall be weighted between Corporate Goals and Individual Goals.  The weightings for the two goal categories shall be recommended by the Plan Sponsor and approved by the Committee.  Threshold, target and superior achievement levels for each Corporate Goal will be recommended by the Plan Sponsor and approved by the Committee.  The payout for the threshold achievement level will be not less than 10% of the target payout, and the payout for the superior achievement level will be not more than 150% of the target payout.    
​
​
 B.Corporate Goals
​
The Corporate Goals for the Plan Year will be recommended by the Plan Sponsor and approved by the Committee.  
​
C.Individual Goals
​
Individual Goals for the Plan Year will be established for the Participant in conjunction with his or her direct supervisor and approved by the Committee (or its delegee).
 ​
​

​
D.Determination of Incentive Compensation Award
​
Following the end of the Plan Year, the Committee will review performance against the Corporate Goals and any Individual Goals established for the Participant, certify in writing that the applicable performance goals were satisfied, and determine the amount of the incentive compensation award, if any, to be paid to each Participant under the Plan.  Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in making this determination, the Committee may, in its discretion, in light of such considerations as it may deem relevant, increase or decrease an incentive compensation award to which a Participant would otherwise be entitled by such amount or percentage as the Committee deems appropriate.  
​
Unless the Committee deems otherwise, an incentive compensation award will not be earned or paid, regardless of Corporate or Individual performance, if 1) any regulatory agency issues a formal, written enforcement action, memorandum of understanding or other negative directive action to Atlantic Union or the Bank and where the Committee considers it imprudent to provide awards under the Plan, or 2) if after a review of the Bank’s credit quality measures the Committee considers it imprudent to provide awards under the Plan.  
​
A sample incentive compensation award calculation is set forth on the attached Appendix A.
​
​
4.Payment of Awards
​
An incentive compensation award under the Plan will be calculated and paid in cash on an annual basis.  Payment of any incentive compensation award, less deferrals and applicable federal, state and local taxes, will be made as soon as practicable following the end of the Plan Year (the “Payment Date”), but in no event before certification of the Committee or later than March 15th following the end of the Plan Year.

Atlantic Union Bankshares Corporation
Incentive Plan Terms & Conditions
​
The terms and conditions (“T&C”) set forth herein apply to, are an integral part of and are incorporated into the cash incentive plan document (the “Incentive Document”) to which the T&C are attached.  Collectively, the T&C and the Incentive Document constitute the “Plan.” Capitalized terms used but not defined in the T&C have the meaning assigned to them in the Incentive Document, unless the T&C provides, or the context requires, otherwise. 
​
1.Purpose 
​
The purpose of the Plan is to reward the performance of the Participants in a manner that is consistent with Atlantic Union’s strategic plan and the attainment of a growing return to the shareholders of Atlantic Union.  The Plan is further intended to assist Atlantic Union and the Bank in their ability to motivate, attract and retain qualified teammates. 
​
2.Effective Date
​
The Plan is in effect January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, and will continue to renew for successive one-year periods (each calendar year being a “Plan Year”) unless otherwise terminated or modified in accordance with the Plan.
 ​
3.  Eligibility
​
A teammate who is hired into an eligible position, as defined within the Incentive Document, subsequent to the commencement of the Plan Year may be deemed eligible by the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Atlantic Union Board of Directors (the “Board”) (or its delegee) for participation in the Plan, in the Committee’s discretion (or in the delegee’s discretion). The Plan Sponsor will recommend to the Committee (or its delegee) the terms and conditions upon which such employee may participate during his or her partial year of eligibility.  The Plan Sponsor shall also recommend to the Committee (or its delegee) the terms and conditions upon which any employee who is hired into or transferred into a new position, which is not defined as an eligible position within the Incentive Document,  for which the Plan Sponsor wishes to provide eligibility or partial year eligibility in the Plan.
​
A Participant who transfers into or out of an eligible position with Atlantic Union or the Bank during the Plan Year, will be treated for purposes of eligibility as being in the position they hold on December 31st of the Plan Year. The Plan Sponsor will recommend to the Committee (or its delegee) the terms and conditions upon which such employee may participate during his or her partial year of eligibility.
​
For a Participant who is on a performance improvement plan or similar counseling or performance document, the Plan Sponsor, following consultation with the Chief Human Resources Officer, may, in his or her discretion, modify the incentive to result in a zero or reduced award unless and until the Participant’s manager documents in writing that the Participant is performing at an appropriate level to be eligible for the incentive compensation.
​
No Participant will be eligible to participate in other short-term, annual cash incentive plans or programs offered by Atlantic Union or the Bank while he or she is a Participant in the Plan.
​
4.Active Participation
​
In the event, during the Plan Year, of the Participant’s death, permanent disability (as determined by the Committee in its discretion) or retirement at or after age 65 (each, an “Early Termination Event”), any incentive compensation award shall be based on performance for the Plan Year, but prorated through the end of the month in which the Early Termination Event occurs and shall be paid at the same time as would be otherwise due under the Plan, but in no event later than March 15th following the end of the Plan Year. 
​
In the event the Participant’s employment ceases prior to the payment of any incentive compensation award under the Plan for any reason other than an Early Termination Event, including, without limitation, a voluntary termination of 

employment by the Participant, or an involuntary termination with or without cause, the Participant shall not be entitled to, and shall not have earned, any incentive compensation award under the Plan.
​
5.Administration
​
Responsibility for the administration of the Plan rests with its Plan Sponsor and/or the Chief Human Resources Officer.  The Plan Sponsor shall monitor for accuracy the performance reporting of the Participant and determine the amount of a Participant’s award, if any, under the Plan.  Eligibility for incentive compensation awards requires adherence with Atlantic Union’s regulatory, risk, audit and compliance programs, as such may be in effect from time to time.  In addition, the Committee, and ultimately the Board, is responsible for the overall oversight, supervision and existence of the Plan.  The Committee has been delegated the sole discretion to interpret the terms of the Plan.  The Committee shall also be empowered to make any and all of the determinations not herein specifically authorized which may be necessary or desirable for the effective administration of the Plan. 
​
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in the Plan, no incentive compensation award is earned until paid, and the Committee, may withhold (as not earned) or adjust any incentive compensation award in its sole discretion as it deems appropriate and will notify the Participants of its decision to withhold or adjust the Participant’s incentive compensation award.
​
Any decision or interpretation of any provision of the Plan adopted by the Committee shall be final and conclusive.    
​
6.Modification and Termination of the Plan 
​
The Plan may be modified or changed at any time by the Committee (or its delegee) in its discretion, followed by written notification to the Participant as soon as reasonably practicable.  The Plan may be terminated at any time by the Committee in its discretion, followed by written notification to the Participant as soon as reasonably practicable.  In the event of a Plan termination, a Participant shall continue to be eligible for incentive compensation awards for the Plan Year prorated through the Plan’s termination date, unless the Committee determines in its discretion that no incentive compensation should be paid.   Any incentive compensation awards shall be calculated through the date of the Plan termination on such basis as the Committee  deems appropriate in its discretion and will be payable as soon as practicable after the termination of the Plan but in no event later than March 15th following the end of the Plan Year in which the termination occurs.
​
7.Participant Rights Not Assignable; Plan not a Contract
​
Any award made pursuant to the Plan 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 Plan shall affect an employee’s at-will status or confer upon any employee any right to continued employment or to receive or continue to receive any rate of pay or other compensation, nor does the Plan affect the right of Atlantic Union or the Bank to terminate a Participant’s employment.  Participation in the Plan does not confer rights to participation in other Atlantic Union or Bank programs or plans, including annual or long-term incentive plans or non-qualified retirement or deferred compensation plans.
​
8.Ethical Statement 
​
The Participant is subject to Atlantic Union’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.  Any violation of this Code or any other policy of Atlantic Union or the Bank, or any breach by the Participant of the provisions of the Plan, as determined by the Committee (or its delegee) in its sole discretion, may result in a reduction of or ineligibility from payments under the Plan and disciplinary action up to and including termination.  
​
The Plan is designed to promote honest and ethical conduct.  On occasion, acting in the best interests of clients, customers, the Bank and/or Atlantic Union may not result in the maximum incentive payout for the Participant.  Participants must never let potential incentive payments dictate their actions or conduct in disregard of established banking practices, policies and procedures. Any action or conduct performed by the Participant or at the Participant’s direction for the sole purpose of earning an incentive may result in disciplinary action up to and including termination.

​
​
9.Governing Law and Venue
​
The parties agree that the interpretation and enforcement of the Plan shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, and that any action to enforce or determine any rights under the Plan shall be brought exclusively in the Circuit Court of Caroline County, Virginia or the applicable federal court in Richmond, Virginia, at the option of Atlantic Union and/or the Bank.  The Participant consents and waives any objection to personal jurisdiction and venue in such court.  The Plan, and any payments thereunder, shall not be subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act.  
​
10.Attorney’s Fees and Costs
​
The parties agree that in the event of any legal action arising out of or relating to the interpretation or enforcement of the Plan, Atlantic Union and the Bank shall be entitled to recover their attorney’s fees and costs in the event that they are (or any of them is) the prevailing party.  
​
11.No Oral or Written Representations
​
The parties agree that the terms of the Plan are set forth solely in the T&C and the Incentive Document and the T&C and the Incentive Document collectively constitute the Plan.  The Plan constitutes the complete and entire agreement of the parties relating to the subject matter thereof.  The parties have relied on no oral or written representation or promises not set forth in the Plan.
​
12.Clawback
​
A Participant, while employed by Atlantic Union or the Bank and in the conduct of his or her duties as an employee, shall not expose Atlantic Union or the Bank to any unreasonable or unnecessary risk.  All incentive compensation awards under the Plan are subject to the terms of Atlantic Union’s Compensation Clawback Policy or similar policy as such may be in effect from time to time, as well as any similar provisions of applicable federal law or regulation and any applicable listing standard of the national securities exchange on which Atlantic Union’s common stock is listed, which could in certain circumstances require repayment of an incentive compensation award or portion thereof.  
​
13.Banking Regulatory Provision
​
All incentive compensation awards under the Plan are subject to any condition, limitation or prohibition under any financial institution regulatory policy or rule to which Atlantic Union or the Bank is subject.  
​
14.Severability
​
In the event one or more of the provisions of the Plan shall for any reason be held to be illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of the Plan shall remain in full force and effect.​

Exhibit 10.13
Atlantic Union Bankshares Corporation
Executive Stock Ownership Policy
Adopted December 10, 2020
​
Purpose
​
The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Atlantic Union Bankshares Corporation (“Atlantic Union” or the "Corporation") believes that it is in the best interest of the Corporation to align the financial interests of Atlantic Union executive officers with those of the Corporation’s shareholders. In this regard, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) recommended and the Board adopted minimum stock ownership and retention guidelines as set forth in this Policy. The Committee may modify this Policy and these guidelines in its discretion, to the extent permitted by the Corporation’s Bylaws.
​
Applicability and Effective Date
​
This Policy is effective December 10, 2020, and supersedes the policy in effect prior to such date, and is applicable to any individual who is an executive officer of the Corporation, as defined in Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Participants"). Questions regarding this Policy should be directed to the Corporation’s Chief Human Resource Officer.
​
Minimum Ownership Guidelines
​
Participants must own shares of common stock of the Corporation equal in value to the following schedule:
​
	​

	​

	Participant
	Value of Shares Owned

	Chief Executive Officer
	5x Base Salary

	President and Chief Financial Officer 
	3x Base Salary

	Other Executive Officers
	1x Base Salary

​
Satisfaction of Guidelines
​
Participants may satisfy the ownership guidelines with common stock in the following categories:
​
		●	Shares owned directly

		●	Shares owned indirectly (e.g., by a spouse or a trust) if the Participant has a pecuniary interest1 in such shares	

		●	Time vested restricted stock and/or restricted stock units granted under the Corporation’s incentive plans or other equity compensation arrangements	

		●	Time vested phantom stock, payable in shares, granted under the Corporation's incentive plans or other equity compensation arrangements	

		●	Shares held in benefit plans (e.g. ESOP)

​
Unexercised options and unearned performance shares are not counted toward meeting the guidelines. In addition, the minimum ownership guidelines must be satisfied exclusive of any shares hedged, pledged or held in margin accounts.
​
Accumulation Period
​
All Participants must accumulate the minimum number of shares to satisfy the ownership guidelines over a five-year period. The period will be measured using the calendar year. Participants identified or hired in the future shall be required to accumulate the minimum number of shares beginning on January 1st of the year following hiring or promotion.

1 “Pecuniary interest” means the opportunity, directly or indirectly, to profit or share in any profit derived from a transaction in the subject securities, as defined in Rule 16a-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

​

​

​
If the minimum required stock ownership level required by this Policy is increased, Participants will have until the later of three years from the date of such increase or three years following the end of their accumulation period under the prior policy, to achieve the new required ownership level.
​
Valuation
​
The Committee will review at least annually the value of a Participant’s holdings as of a selected date (the “Valuation Date”).  The holdings value to be based on the average closing price of a share of the Corporation’s common stock for the 90 day period preceding the annual valuation date, the number of shares held in compliance with the guidelines, and the Participant’s then current base salary all determined as of the Valuation Date.
​
Retention Ratio
​
If a Participant is not in compliance with this Policy at any Valuation Date, such Participant must retain 50 percent of his or her vested full value shares of the Corporation’s common stock acquired through the Corporation’s incentive plans or other equity compensation arrangements after such Valuation Date.
​
Stock Option Holding Period
​
If a Participant is not in compliance with this Policy at any Valuation Date, such Participant is prohibited from selling Corporation common stock acquired after such Valuation Date by exercising stock options. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Participants may immediately sell Corporation common stock acquired by exercising stock options for the limited purposes of paying the exercise price of the stock option and any applicable tax withholding.
​
Reporting and Compliance
​
Progress and compliance in achieving the minimum ownership guidelines will be reviewed at least annually and reported to the Committee.
​
Participants not in compliance with the minimum ownership guidelines will receive written notification from the Corporation that the Retention Ratio and Stock Option Holding Period described above will apply until the Participant provides written notification and documentation satisfactory to the Corporation indicating that he or she has come into compliance with this Policy.
​
The Committee may make changes to this Policy as it deems appropriate. Violations of this Policy may result in adjustments to incentive-based compensation, such as the loss of future grants of incentive plan awards.
​
Exceptions
​
There may be instances where the ownership levels in this Policy would place a severe financial or personal hardship on a Participant. The Committee may, in its discretion, modify or delay application of the minimum ownership requirements in the case of demonstrated severe financial or personal hardship.  The Committee will record in its meeting minutes any such action taken to modify or delay application of the minimum ownership requirements, although the Participant need not be named. 
​
Administration
​
The Committee shall be responsible for monitoring the application of this Policy. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between this Policy and any other policies, plans, or other materials of the Corporation, this Policy shall govern.
