The Administrator has authority to determine which Service Providers receive Awards, grant Awards and set Award terms and conditions, subject to the conditions and limitations in the Plan.  The Administrator also has the authority to take all actions and make all determinations under the Plan, to interpret the Plan and Award Agreements and to adopt, amend and repeal Plan administrative rules, guidelines and practices as it deems advisable.  The Administrator may correct defects and ambiguities, supply omissions, reconcile inconsistencies in the Plan or any Award and make all other determinations that it deems necessary or appropriate to administer the Plan and any Awards.  The Administrator’s determinations under the Plan are in its sole discretion and will be final and binding on all persons having or claiming any interest in the Plan or any Award.
4.2    Appointment of Committees.  To the extent Applicable Laws permit, the Board or any Committee may delegate any or all of its powers under the Plan to one or more Committees or officers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.  Any delegation hereunder shall be subject to the restrictions and limits that the Board or Committee specifies at the time of such delegation or that are otherwise included in the applicable organizational documents of the Company, and the Board or Committee, as applicable, may at any time rescind the authority so delegated or appoint a new delegatee. At all times, the delegatee appointed under this Section 4.2 shall serve in such capacity at the pleasure of the Board or the Committee, as applicable, and the Board or the Committee may abolish any Committee to which authority has been delegated at any time and re-vest in itself any previously delegated authority.
ARTICLE 5.     
STOCK AVAILABLE FOR AWARDS
5.1    Number of Shares.  Subject to adjustment under Article 9 and the terms of this Article 5, Awards may be made under the Plan covering up to the Overall Share Limit.  As of the Effective Date, the Company will cease granting awards under the Prior Plans; provided, however, that Prior Plan Awards will remain subject to the terms of the applicable Prior Plan. Shares issued or delivered under the Plan may consist of authorized but unissued Shares, Shares purchased on the open market or treasury Shares. 
5.2    Share Counting.  If all or any part of an Award or Prior Plan Award expires, lapses or is terminated, exchanged for cash, surrendered, repurchased, canceled without having been fully exercised or forfeited, in any case, in a manner that results in the Company acquiring Shares covered by the Award or Prior Plan Award at a price not greater than the price (as adjusted to reflect any

US-DOCS\76159156.10

Equity Restructuring) paid by the Participant for such Shares or not issuing any Shares covered by the Award or Prior Plan Award, the unused Shares covered by the Award or Prior Plan Award will, as applicable, become or again be available for Awards under the Plan.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the following Shares shall not become or again be available for Awards under the Plan:  (i) Shares tendered by a Participant or withheld by the Company in payment of the exercise price of an Option or any stock option granted under a Prior Plan; (ii) Shares tendered by the Participant or withheld by the Company to satisfy any tax withholding obligation with respect to an Award or an award granted under a Prior Plan; (iii) Shares subject to a Stock Appreciation Right or a stock appreciation right granted under a Prior Plan that are not issued in connection with the settlement of such Award on exercise thereof; and (iv) Shares purchased on the open market with cash proceeds from the exercise of Options or stock options granted under a Prior Plan.  The payment of Dividend Equivalents in cash in conjunction with any outstanding Awards or Prior Plan Awards shall not count against the Overall Share Limit.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.2, no Shares may again be optioned, granted or awarded if such action would cause an Incentive Stock Option to fail to qualify as an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Code.   
5.3    Incentive Stock Option Limitations.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no more than 900,000 Shares (as adjusted to reflect any Equity Restructuring) may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options.  
5.4    Substitute Awards.  In connection with an entity’s merger or consolidation with the Company or any Subsidiary or the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s acquisition of an entity’s property or stock, the Administrator may grant Awards in substitution for any options or other stock or stock-based awards granted before such merger or consolidation by such entity or its affiliate.  Substitute Awards may be granted on such terms and conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate, notwithstanding limitations on Awards in the Plan.  Substitute Awards will not count against the Overall Share Limit (nor shall Shares subject to a Substitute Award be added to the Shares available for Awards under the Plan as provided above), except that Shares acquired by exercise of substitute Incentive Stock Options will count against the maximum number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options under the Plan. Additionally, in the event that a company acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary or with which the Company or any Subsidiary combines has shares available under a pre‐existing plan approved by stockholders and not adopted in contemplation of such acquisition or combination, the shares available for grant pursuant to the terms of such pre-existing plan (as appropriately adjusted to reflect the transaction) may be used for Awards under the Plan and shall not reduce the Shares authorized for grant under the Plan (and Shares subject to such Awards (which, for the avoidance of doubt excludes Substitute Awards) may again become available for Awards under the Plan as provided under Section 5.2 above); provided, that Awards using such available shares (or any Shares that again become available for issuance under the Plan under Section 5.2 above) shall not be made after the date awards or grants could have been made under the terms of the pre-existing plan, absent the acquisition or combination, and shall only be made to individuals who were not employees or directors of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to such acquisition or combination.
5.5    Non-Employee Director Award Limit.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Plan or in any policy of the Company regarding non-employee Director compensation, the 

10

US-DOCS\76159156.10

sum of the grant date fair value (determined as of the grant date in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, or any successor thereto) of all equity-based Awards and the maximum amount that may become payable pursuant to all cash-based Awards that may be granted under the Plan to a Service Provider as compensation for services as a non-employee Director during any calendar year shall not exceed $300,000.

6.2    Exercise Price.  The Administrator will establish each Option’s and Stock Appreciation Right’s exercise price and specify the exercise price in the Award Agreement.  The exercise price will not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value on the grant date of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right.   
6.3    Duration of Options.  Each Option or Stock Appreciation Right will be exercisable at such times and as specified in the Award Agreement, provided that the term of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right will not exceed ten (10) years.
6.4    Exercise.  Options and Stock Appreciation Rights may be exercised by delivering to the Company a notice of exercise, in a form and manner the Company approves (which may be electronic or telephonic), signed or authenticated by the person authorized to exercise the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, together with, as applicable, payment in full of (i) the exercise price for the number of Shares for which the Option is exercised in a manner specified in Section 6.5 and (ii) all applicable taxes in a manner specified in Section 10.5.  Unless the Company otherwise determines, an Option or Stock Appreciation Right may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.
6.5    Payment Upon Exercise.  The Administrator shall determine the methods (or combination of methods) by which payment of the exercise price of an Option shall be made, including, without limitation: 
(a)    cash, check or wire transfer of immediately available funds;

11

US-DOCS\76159156.10

(b)    if there is a public market for Shares at the time of exercise, unless the Company otherwise determines, (A) delivery (including telephonically to the extent permitted by the Company) of a notice that the Participant has placed a market sell order with a broker acceptable to the Company with respect to Shares then issuable upon exercise of the Option and that the broker has been directed to deliver promptly to the Company funds sufficient to pay the exercise price, or (B) the Participant’s delivery to the Company of a copy of irrevocable and unconditional instructions to a broker acceptable to the Company to deliver promptly to the Company an amount sufficient to pay the exercise price by cash, check or wire transfer of immediately available funds; provided, that such amount is paid to the Company at such time as may be required by the Company;  
(c)    to the extent permitted by the Administrator, delivery (either by actual delivery or attestation) of Shares owned by the Participant valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of delivery (or such other date determined by the Administrator); or
(d)    to the extent permitted by the Administrator, surrendering Shares then issuable upon the Option’s exercise valued at their Fair Market Value on the exercise date. 
6.6    Additional Terms of Incentive Stock Options.  The Administrator may grant Incentive Stock Options only to Employees of the Company, any of its present or future parent or Subsidiary corporations, as defined in Sections 424(e) or (f) of the Code, respectively, and any other entities the employees of which are eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options under the Code.  If an Incentive Stock Option is granted to a Greater Than 10% Stockholder, the exercise price will not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value on the Option’s grant date, and the term of the Option will not exceed five (5) years.  All Incentive Stock Options will be subject to and construed consistently with Section 422 of the Code.  By accepting an Incentive Stock Option, the Participant agrees to give prompt notice to the Company of dispositions or other transfers (other than in connection with a Change in Control) of Shares acquired under the Option made within (i) two (2) years from the grant date of the Option or (ii) one (1) year after the transfer of such Shares to the Participant, specifying the date of the disposition or other transfer and the amount the Participant realized, in cash, other property, assumption of indebtedness or other consideration, in such disposition or other transfer.  Neither the Company nor the Administrator will be liable to a Participant, or any other party, if an Incentive Stock Option fails or ceases to qualify as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code.  Any Incentive Stock Option or portion thereof that fails to qualify as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code for any reason, including becoming exercisable with respect to Shares having a fair market value exceeding the $100,000 limitation under Treasury Regulation Section 1.422-4, will be a Nonqualified Stock Option.
ARTICLE 7.     
RESTRICTED STOCK; RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS
7.1    General.  The Administrator may grant Restricted Stock, or the right to purchase Restricted Stock, to any Service Provider, subject to forfeiture or the Company’s right to repurchase all or part of such Shares at their issue price or other stated or formula price from the Participant if conditions the Administrator specifies in the Award Agreement are not satisfied before the end of the applicable restriction period or periods that the Administrator establishes for such Award.  In addition, the Administrator may grant to Service Providers Restricted Stock Units, which may be 

12

US-DOCS\76159156.10

subject to vesting and forfeiture conditions during the applicable restriction period or periods, as set forth in an Award Agreement.  The Award Agreement for each Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Unit Award shall set forth the terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as the Administrator shall determine. 
7.2    Restricted Stock.
(a)    Dividends.   Subject to any limitations approved by the Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement, Participants holding shares of Restricted Stock will be entitled to all ordinary cash dividends paid with respect to such Shares; provided, that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any dividend payable with respect to Shares of Restricted Stock held by a Participant that are not vested at the time that such dividend is paid shall be accumulated and subject to vesting to the same extent as the related Shares of Restricted Stock, with such accumulated dividends paid to the applicable Participant as soon as administratively practicable following the time the applicable Shares of Restricted Stock vest and become non-forfeitable (or such later time as may be set forth in the Award Agreement).  In addition, if any dividends or distributions are paid in Shares, or consist of a dividend or distribution to holders of Common Stock of cash or property other than an ordinary cash dividend, the Shares or other cash or property will be subject to the same restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which they were paid. 
(b)    Stock Certificates.  The Company may require that the Participant deposit in escrow with the Company (or its designee) any stock certificates issued in respect of Shares of Restricted Stock, together with a stock power endorsed in blank.
(c)    Section 83(b) Election.  If a Participant makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed with respect to Restricted Stock as of the date of transfer of the Restricted Stock, rather than as of the date or dates upon which the Participant would otherwise be taxed with respect to the Restricted Stock under Section 83(a) of the Code, the Participant shall be required to deliver a copy of such election to the Company promptly after filing such election with the Internal Revenue Service, along with proof of the timely filing thereof with the Internal Revenue Service.
7.3    Restricted Stock Units.  The Administrator may provide that settlement of Restricted Stock Units will occur upon or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Restricted Stock Units vest or will instead be deferred, on a mandatory basis or at the Participant’s election, in each case, as provided in the applicable Award Agreement and subject to the terms of the Plan.
ARTICLE 8.     
OTHER TYPES OF AWARDS 
8.1    General.  The Administrator may grant Performance Share awards, Performance Bonus Awards, Dividend Equivalents or Other Stock or Cash Based Awards, to one or more Service Providers, in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as the Administrator shall determine.  For the avoidance of doubt, no Participant holding a Performance Share award described in Section 8.2, a Performance Bonus Award described in Section 8.3, or an Other Stock or Cash Based Award described in Section 8.5, in each case, that is eligible 

13

US-DOCS\76159156.10

to receive dividends (if any) shall be entitled to receive a distribution of dividends with respect to such award or any Shares covered by such award unless and until such award vests and becomes non-forfeitable.
8.2    Performance Share Awards.  Each Performance Share award shall be denominated in a number of Shares or in unit equivalents of Shares and/or units of value (including a dollar value of Shares) and may be linked to any one or more of the Performance Criteria or other specific criteria, including service to the Company or Subsidiaries, determined to be appropriate by the Administrator, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any Performance Period.  In making such determinations, the Administrator may consider (among such other factors as it deems relevant in light of the specific type of Award) the contributions, responsibilities and other compensation of the particular Participant. 
8.3    Performance Bonus Awards.  Each right to receive a bonus granted under this Section 8.3 shall be denominated in the form of cash and shall be initially payable in cash (but may, in the discretion of the Administrator, be payable in Shares or a combination of cash and Shares) (a “Performance Bonus Award”) and shall be payable upon the attainment of performance goals that are established by the Administrator and relate to one or more of the Performance Criteria or other specific criteria, including service to the Company or Subsidiaries, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any Performance Period.
8.4    Dividend Equivalents.  If the Administrator provides, an Award (other than an Option or Stock Appreciation Right) may provide a Participant with the right to receive Dividend Equivalents.  Dividend Equivalents may be paid currently or credited to an account for the Participant, settled in cash or Shares and subject to the same restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the Award with respect to which the Dividend Equivalents are granted and subject to other terms and conditions as set forth in the Award Agreement; provided, that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Dividend Equivalents with respect to Awards that are not vested at the time that the underlying dividend is paid shall be accumulated and subject to vesting to the same extent as the related Award, with such accumulated Dividend Equivalents paid to the applicable Participant as soon as administratively practicable following the time the applicable Award vests and becomes non-forfeitable (or such later time as may be set forth in the Award Agreement).
8.5    Other Stock or Cash Based Awards.  Other Stock or Cash Based Awards may be granted to Participants, including Awards entitling Participants to receive Shares to be delivered in the future and including annual or other periodic or long-term cash bonus awards (whether based on specified Performance Criteria or otherwise), in each case subject to any conditions and limitations in the Plan. Such Other Stock or Cash Based Awards will also be available as a payment form in the settlement of other Awards, as standalone payments and as payment in lieu of compensation to which a Participant is otherwise entitled.  Other Stock or Cash Based Awards may be paid in Shares, cash or other property, as the Administrator determines.  Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Administrator will determine the terms and conditions of each Other Stock or Cash Based Award, including any purchase price, performance goal (which may be based on the Performance Criteria), transfer restrictions, and vesting conditions, which will be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement.

ARTICLE 9.     
ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN COMMON STOCK  
AND CERTAIN OTHER EVENTS
9.1    Equity Restructuring.  In connection with any Equity Restructuring, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 9 the Administrator will equitably adjust the terms of the Plan and each outstanding Award as it deems appropriate to reflect the Equity Restructuring, which may include (i) adjusting the number and type of securities subject to each outstanding Award and/or with respect to which Awards may be granted under the Plan (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the limitations in Article 5 hereof on the maximum number and kind of shares that may be issued); (ii) adjusting the terms and conditions of (including the grant or exercise price), and the performance goals or other criteria included in, outstanding Awards; and (iii) granting new Awards or making cash payments to Participants.  The adjustments provided under this Section 9.1 will be nondiscretionary and final and binding on all interested parties, including the affected Participant and the Company; provided, that the Administrator will determine whether an adjustment is equitable.
9.2    Corporate Transactions.  In the event of any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Common Stock, other securities, or other property), reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin off, combination, amalgamation, repurchase, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution, or sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or sale or exchange of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, Change in Control, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Common Stock or other securities of the Company, other similar corporate transaction or event, other unusual or nonrecurring transaction or event affecting the Company or its financial statements or any change in any Applicable Laws or accounting principles, the Administrator, on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, either by the terms of the Award or by action taken prior to the occurrence of such transaction or event (except that action to give effect to a change in Applicable Law or accounting principles may be made within a reasonable period of time after such change) and either automatically or upon the Participant’s request, is hereby authorized to take any one or more of the following actions whenever the Administrator determines that such action is appropriate in order to (x) prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended by the Company to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any Award granted or issued under the Plan, (y) to facilitate such transaction or event or (z) give effect to such changes in Applicable Laws or accounting principles:  
(a)    To provide for the termination of any such Award in exchange for an amount of cash and/or other property with a value equal to the amount that would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights (and, for the avoidance of doubt, if as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction or event described in this Section 9.2 the Administrator determines in good faith that no amount would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights, then such Award may be terminated by the Company without payment);  

15

US-DOCS\76159156.10

(b)    To provide that such Award be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for by similar options, rights or awards covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and applicable exercise or purchase price, in all cases, as determined by the Administrator;
(c)    To make adjustments in the number and type of Shares of the Company’s stock (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards, and/or in the terms and conditions of (including the grant or exercise price), and the criteria included in, outstanding Awards and Awards which may be granted in the future;  
(d)    To provide that such Award shall be exercisable or payable or fully vested with respect to all Shares covered thereby, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement;  
(e)    To replace such Award with other rights or property selected by the Administrator; and/or
(f)    To provide that the Award cannot vest, be exercised or become payable after such event;
provided, however, that, unless otherwise provided in an applicable Award Agreement or other written agreement entered into between the Company and a Participant, if a Change in Control occurs and a Participant’s Awards are not continued, converted, assumed, or replaced in accordance with subsections (b) or (e) above, such Awards shall become fully vested and exercisable, and all forfeiture, repurchase and other restrictions on such wards shall lapse immediately prior to such Change in Control; provided, further, that, with respect to Awards subject to performance-based vesting, the number of Shares subject to any such Award that becomes vested pursuant to this proviso shall be determined based on (i) target performance pro-rated based on the number of days elapsed in the applicable performance period through the date of the Change in Control over the total number of days in the applicable performance period or (ii) actual performance through the applicable performance period through the date of the Change in Control with the applicable performance goals, to the extended possible, adjusted to reflect the truncated performance period, whichever results in the greatest number of vested Shares.
9.3    Administrative Stand Still.  In the event of any pending stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to stockholders, or any other extraordinary transaction or change affecting the Shares or the share price of Common Stock (including any Equity Restructuring or any securities offering or other similar transaction) or for reasons of administrative convenience or to facilitate compliance with any Applicable Laws, the Company may refuse to permit the exercise or settlement of one or more Awards for such period of time as the Company may determine to be reasonably appropriate under the circumstances.
9.4    General.  Except as expressly provided in the Plan or the Administrator’s action under the Plan, no Participant will have any rights due to any subdivision or consolidation of Shares 

16

US-DOCS\76159156.10

of any class, dividend payment, increase or decrease in the number of Shares of any class or dissolution, liquidation, merger, or consolidation of the Company or other corporation.  Except as expressly provided with respect to an Equity Restructuring under Section 9.1 above or the Administrator’s action under the Plan, no issuance by the Company of Shares of any class, or securities convertible into Shares of any class, will affect, and no adjustment will be made regarding, the number of Shares subject to an Award or the Award’s grant or exercise price.  The existence of the Plan, any Award Agreements and the Awards granted hereunder will not affect or restrict in any way the Company’s right or power to make or authorize (i) any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, (ii) any merger, consolidation, spinoff, dissolution or liquidation of the Company or sale of Company assets or (iii) any sale or issuance of securities, including securities with rights superior to those of the Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Shares. The Administrator may treat Participants and Awards (or portions thereof) differently under this Article 9.  
ARTICLE 10.     
PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO AWARDS 
10.1    Transferability.  Except as the Administrator may determine or provide in an Award Agreement or otherwise for Awards other than Incentive Stock Options, Awards may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or, subject to the Administrator’s consent, pursuant to a domestic relations order, and, during the life of the Participant, will be exercisable only by the Participant. Any permitted transfer of an Award hereunder shall be without consideration, except as required by applicable law.  References to a Participant, to the extent relevant in the context, will include references to a transferee approved by the Administrator.
10.2    Documentation.  Each Award will be evidenced in an Award Agreement, which may be written or electronic, as the Administrator determines. Each Award may contain such terms and conditions as are not inconsistent with those set forth in the Plan. 
10.3    Discretion.  Except as the Plan otherwise provides, each Award may be made alone or in addition or in relation to any other Award.  The terms of each Award to a Participant need not be identical, and the Administrator need not treat Participants or Awards (or portions thereof) uniformly. 
10.4    Changes in Participant’s Status.  The Company will determine how the disability, death, retirement, authorized leave of absence or any other change or purported change in a Participant’s Service Provider status affects an Award and the extent to which, and the period during which, the Participant, the Participant’s legal representative, conservator, guardian or Designated Beneficiary may exercise rights under the Award, if applicable.  Except to the extent otherwise required by Applicable Law or expressly authorized by the Company or by the Company’s written policy on leaves of absence, no service credit shall be given for vesting purposes for any period the Participant is on a leave of absence.
10.5    Withholding.  Each Participant must pay the Company, or make provision satisfactory to the Administrator for payment of, any taxes required by law to be withheld in 

17

US-DOCS\76159156.10

connection with such Participant’s Awards by the date of the event creating the tax liability.  The Company may deduct an amount sufficient to satisfy such tax obligations based on the applicable statutory withholding rates for federal, state, local and foreign income tax and payroll tax purposes (or such other rate as may be determined by the Company after considering any accounting consequences or costs, but which shall in no event exceed, and may be less than, the maximum statutory withholding rates) from any payment of any kind otherwise due to a Participant.  Subject to any Company insider trading policy (including blackout periods) and the terms of the applicable Award Agreement, Participants may satisfy such tax obligations (i) in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, by check made payable to the order of the Company, (ii) to the extent permitted by the Administrator, in whole or in part by delivery of Shares, including Shares delivered by attestation and Shares retained from the Award creating the tax obligation, valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of delivery (or such other date determined by the Administrator), (iii) if there is a public market for Shares at the time the tax obligations are satisfied, unless the Administrator otherwise determines, (A) delivery (including telephonically to the extent permitted by the Administrator) of a notice that the Participant has placed a market sell order with a broker acceptable to the Administrator with respect to Shares then issuable upon exercise of the Award and that the broker has been directed to deliver promptly to the Company funds sufficient to satisfy the tax obligations, or (B) the Participant’s delivery to the Company of a copy of irrevocable and unconditional instructions to a broker acceptable to the Administrator to deliver promptly to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy the tax withholding by cash, check or wire transfer of immediately available funds; provided, that such amount is paid to the Company at such time as may be required by the Administrator, (iv) to the extent permitted by the Administrator, delivery of a promissory note or any other lawful consideration, or (v) any combination of the foregoing payment forms approved by the Administrator.  If any tax withholding obligation will be satisfied under clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence by the Company’s retention of Shares from the Award creating the tax obligation and there is a public market for Shares at the time the tax obligation is satisfied, the Company may elect to instruct any brokerage firm determined acceptable to the Company for such purpose to sell on the applicable Participant’s behalf some or all of the Shares retained and to remit the proceeds of the sale to the Company or its designee, and each Participant’s acceptance of an Award under the Plan will constitute the Participant’s authorization to the Company and instruction and authorization to such brokerage firm to complete the transactions described in this sentence.
10.6    Amendment of Award; Prohibition on Repricing.  The Administrator may amend, modify or terminate any outstanding Award, including by substituting another Award of the same or a different type, changing the exercise or settlement date, converting an Incentive Stock Option to a Nonqualified Stock Option and providing for cash settlement of an outstanding Award.  The Participant’s consent to such action will be required unless (i) the action, taking into account any related action, does not materially and adversely affect the economic benefits to be delivered under the Award as of the date of such amendment, modification or termination, or (ii) the change is permitted under Article 9 or pursuant to Sections 11.5 or 11.6.  Other than pursuant to Sections 9.1 and 9.2, the Administrator shall not without the approval of the Company’s stockholders (a) lower the exercise price per Share of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right after it is granted, (b) cancel an Option or Stock Appreciation Right when the exercise price per Share exceeds the Fair Market Value of one Share in exchange for cash or another Award, or (c) take any other action with respect 

18

US-DOCS\76159156.10

to an Option or Stock Appreciation Right that the Company determines would be treated as a repricing under the rules and regulations of the principal U.S. national securities exchange on which the Shares are listed.
10.7    Conditions on Delivery of Stock.  The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Shares under the Plan or remove restrictions from Shares previously delivered under the Plan until (i) all Award conditions have been met or removed to the Company’s satisfaction, (ii) as determined by the Company, all other legal matters regarding the issuance and delivery of such Shares have been satisfied, including any applicable securities laws and stock exchange or stock market rules and regulations, and (iii) the Participant has executed and delivered to the Company such representations or agreements as the Company deems necessary or appropriate to satisfy any Applicable Laws.  The Company’s inability to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which the Company determines is necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any securities, will relieve the Company of any liability for failing to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority has not been obtained.
10.8    Award Vesting Limitations.  Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, but subject to Sections 9.1 and 9.2 of the Plan, Awards granted under the Plan shall vest no earlier than the first anniversary of the date the Award is granted; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Awards that result in the issuance of an aggregate of up to 5% of the shares of Common Stock available pursuant to Section 5.1 may be granted to any one or more Participants without respect to such minimum vesting provisions. Nothing in this Section 10.8 shall preclude the Administrator from taking action, in its sole discretion, to accelerate the vesting of any Award in connection with or following a Participant’s death, Disability, Termination of Service (other than for Cause) or, subject to Section 9.2, the consummation of a Change in Control. 
10.9    Fractional Shares.  No fractional shares of Stock shall be issued and the Company shall determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, whether cash shall be given in lieu of fractional shares or whether such fractional shares shall be eliminated by rounding down.
ARTICLE 11.     
MISCELLANEOUS 
11.1    No Right to Employment or Other Status.  No person will have any claim or right to be granted an Award, and the grant of an Award will not be construed as giving a Participant the right to continue employment or any other relationship with the Company.  The Company expressly reserves the right at any time to dismiss or otherwise terminate its relationship with a Participant free from any liability or claim under the Plan or any Award, except as expressly provided in an Award Agreement.
11.2    No Rights as Stockholder; Certificates.  Subject to the Award Agreement, no Participant or Designated Beneficiary will have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares to be distributed under an Award until becoming the record holder of such Shares.  Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, unless the Company otherwise determines or Applicable Laws require, the Company will not be required to deliver to any Participant certificates evidencing Shares issued in connection with any Award and instead such Shares may be recorded 

19

US-DOCS\76159156.10

in the books of the Company (or, as applicable, its transfer agent or stock plan administrator).  The Company may place legends on any share certificate or book entry to reference restrictions applicable to the Shares (including, without limitation, restrictions applicable to Restricted Stock).
11.3    Effective Date and Term of Plan.  The Plan will become effective on the date it is approved by the Company’s stockholders (the “Effective Date”).  The Plan will expire on, and no Award may be granted pursuant to the Plan after the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Effective Date, but Awards previously granted may extend beyond that date and shall remain in force according to the terms of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement.  If the Plan is not approved by the Company’s stockholders, the Plan will not become effective, no Awards will be granted under the Plan and the Prior Plans will continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms.
11.4    Amendment of Plan.  The Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time and from time to time; provided that (a) no amendment requiring stockholder approval to comply with Applicable Laws shall be effective unless approved by the Board and the Company’s stockholders, and (b) no amendment, other than an increase to the Overall Share Limit, may materially and adversely affect the economic benefits to be delivered under any outstanding Award as of the date of such amendment without the affected Participant’s consent.  No Awards may be granted under the Plan during any suspension period or after Plan termination.  Awards outstanding at the time of any Plan suspension or termination will continue to be governed by the Plan and the Award Agreement, as in effect before such suspension or termination.  The Board will obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Laws.
11.5    Provisions for Foreign Participants.  The Administrator may modify Awards granted to Participants who are foreign nationals or employed outside the United States or establish subplans or procedures under the Plan to address differences in laws, rules, regulations or customs of such foreign jurisdictions with respect to tax, securities, currency, employee benefit or other matters.
11.6    Section 409A.  
(a)    General.  The Company intends that all Awards be structured to comply with, or be exempt from, Section 409A, such that no adverse tax consequences, interest, or penalties under Section 409A apply.  Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or any Award Agreement to the contrary, the Administrator may, without a Participant’s consent, amend the Plan or Awards, adopt policies and procedures, or take any other actions (including amendments, policies, procedures and retroactive actions) as are necessary or appropriate to preserve the intended tax treatment of Awards, including any such actions intended to (A) exempt the Plan or any Award from Section 409A, or (B) comply with Section 409A, including regulations, guidance, compliance programs and other interpretative authority that may be issued after an Award’s grant date.  The Company makes no representations or warranties as to an Award’s tax treatment under Section 409A or otherwise.  The Company will have no obligation under this Section 11.6 or otherwise to avoid the taxes, penalties or interest under Section 409A with respect to any Award and will have no liability to any Participant or any other person if any Award, compensation or other benefits under the Plan are determined to constitute noncompliant “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to taxes, penalties or interest under Section 409A.

20

US-DOCS\76159156.10

(b)    Separation from Service.  If an Award constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A, any payment or settlement of such Award upon a Participant’s Termination of Service will, to the extent necessary to avoid taxes under Section 409A, be made only upon the Participant’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A), whether such “separation from service” occurs upon or after the Participant’s Termination of Service.  For purposes of the Plan or any Award Agreement relating to any such payments or benefits, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms means a “separation from service.”
(c)    Payments to Specified Employees.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision in the Plan or any Award Agreement, any payment(s) of “nonqualified deferred compensation” required to be made under an Award to a “specified employee” (as defined under Section 409A and as the Company determines) due to his or her “separation from service” will, to the extent necessary to avoid taxes under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, be delayed for the six-month period immediately following such “separation from service” (or, if earlier, until the specified employee’s death) and will instead be paid (as set forth in the Award Agreement) on the day immediately following such six-month period or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter (without interest).  Any payments of “nonqualified deferred compensation” under such Award payable more than six months following the Participant’s “separation from service” will be paid at the time or times the payments are otherwise scheduled to be made.
(d)    Dividend Equivalents.  Dividend Equivalents and any amounts that may become distributable in respect thereof shall be treated separately from any Award(s) to which such Dividend Equivalents relate, and the rights arising in connection therewith for purposes of the designation of time and form of payments required by Section 409A.
11.7    Limitations Applicable to Section 16 Persons.  Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Plan and any Award granted or awarded to any Participant who is then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any amendment to Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act or any successor rule) that are requirements for the application of such exemptive rule.  To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Plan and Awards granted or awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule.
11.8    Limitations on Liability.  Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, no individual acting as a Director, officer or other Employee of the Company or any Subsidiary will be liable to any Participant, former Participant, spouse, beneficiary, or any other person for any claim, loss, liability, or expense incurred in connection with the Plan or any Award, and such individual will not be personally liable with respect to the Plan because of any contract or other instrument executed in his or her capacity as an Administrator, Director, officer or other Employee of the Company or any Subsidiary.  The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Director, officer or other Employee of the Company or any Subsidiary that has been or will be granted or delegated any duty or power relating to the Plan’s administration or interpretation, against any cost or expense (including attorneys’ fees) or liability (including any sum paid in settlement of a claim with the Company’s approval) arising from any act or omission concerning the Plan unless arising 

21

US-DOCS\76159156.10

from such person’s own fraud or bad faith; provided, that he or she gives the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf.
11.9    Data Privacy.  As a condition for receiving any Award, each Participant explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of personal data as described in this Section by and among the Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates exclusively for implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan.  The Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates may hold certain personal information about a Participant, including the Participant’s name, address and telephone number; birthdate; social security, insurance number or other identification number; salary; nationality; job title(s); any Shares held in the Company or its Subsidiaries and affiliates; and Award details, to implement, manage and administer the Plan and Awards (the “Data”).  The Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates may transfer the Data amongst themselves as necessary to implement, administer and manage a Participant’s participation in the Plan, and the Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates may transfer the Data to third parties assisting the Company with Plan implementation, administration and management.  These recipients may be located in the Participant’s country, or elsewhere, and the Participant’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the recipients’ country.  By accepting an Award, each Participant authorizes such recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, to implement, administer and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan, including any required Data transfer to a broker or other third party with whom the Company or the Participant may elect to deposit any Shares.  The Data related to a Participant will be held only as long as necessary to implement, administer, and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan.  A Participant may, at any time, view the Data that the Company holds regarding such Participant, request additional information about the storage and processing of the Data regarding such Participant, recommend any necessary corrections to the Data regarding the Participant or refuse or withdraw the consents in this Section 11.9 in writing, without cost, by contacting the local human resources representative.  The Company may cancel Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan and, in the Company’s sole discretion, the Participant may forfeit any outstanding Awards if the Participant refuses or withdraws the consents in this Section 11.9.  For more information on the consequences of refusing or withdrawing consent, Participants may contact their local human resources representative.
11.10    Severability.  If any portion of the Plan or any action taken under it is held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity will not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan will be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provisions had been excluded, and the illegal or invalid action will be null and void.
11.11    Governing Documents.  If any contradiction occurs between the Plan and any Award Agreement or other written agreement between a Participant and the Company (or any Subsidiary), the Plan will govern, unless such Award Agreement or other written agreement was approved by the Administrator and expressly provides that a specific provision of the Plan will not apply.
11.12    Governing Law.  The Plan and all Awards will be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, disregarding the choice-of-law principles of the 

22

US-DOCS\76159156.10

State of Delaware and any other state requiring the application of a jurisdiction’s laws other than the State of Delaware.
11.13    Clawback Provisions.  All Awards (including the gross amount of any proceeds, gains or other economic benefit the Participant actually or constructively receives upon receipt or exercise of any Award or the receipt or resale of any Shares underlying the Award) will be subject to recoupment by the Company to the extent required to comply with Applicable Laws or any policy of the Company providing for the reimbursement of incentive compensation.
11.14    Titles and Headings.  The titles and headings in the Plan are for convenience of reference only and, if any conflict, the Plan’s text, rather than such titles or headings, will control.
11.15    Conformity to Applicable Laws.  Participant acknowledges that the Plan is intended to conform to the extent necessary with Applicable Laws.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Plan and all Awards will be administered only in a manner intended to conform with Applicable Laws.  To the extent Applicable Laws permit, the Plan and all Award Agreements will be deemed amended as necessary to conform to Applicable Laws.
11.16    Relationship to Other Benefits.  No payment under the Plan will be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare or other benefit plan of the Company or any Subsidiary, except as expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder.
11.17    Broker-Assisted Sales. In the event of a broker-assisted sale of Shares in connection with the payment of amounts owed by a Participant under or with respect to the Plan or Awards, including amounts to be paid under the final sentence of Section 10.5: (a) any Shares to be sold through the broker-assisted sale will be sold on the day the payment first becomes due, or as soon thereafter as practicable; (b) such Shares may be sold as part of a block trade with other Participants in the Plan in which all participants receive an average price; (c) the applicable Participant will be responsible for all broker’s fees and other costs of sale, and by accepting an Award, each Participant agrees to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any losses, costs, damages, or expenses relating to any such sale; (d) to the extent the Company or its designee receives proceeds of such sale that exceed the amount owed, the Company will pay such excess in cash to the applicable Participant as soon as reasonably practicable; (e) the Company and its designees are under no obligation to arrange for such sale at any particular price; and (f) in the event the proceeds of such sale are insufficient to satisfy the Participant’s applicable obligation, the Participant may be required to pay immediately upon demand to the Company or its designee an amount in cash sufficient to satisfy any remaining portion of the Participant’s obligation.
11.18    Section 162(m) Limitations.   
(a)    Individual Award Limitations.  Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, and subject to adjustment as provided in Article 9, (i) the maximum aggregate number of Shares with respect to all Options and Stock Appreciation Rights that may be granted to any one person during any calendar year shall be 250,000 Shares; (ii) the maximum aggregate number of Shares with respect to all Awards of Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Shares 

23

US-DOCS\76159156.10

and  Other Stock or Cash Based Awards that are intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation and are denominated in Shares that may be granted to any one person during any calendar year shall be 250,000 Shares; and (iii) the maximum aggregate amount that may become payable (in cash, Shares or any combination thereof) pursuant to all Performance Bonus Awards that may be granted to any one person during any calendar year shall be U.S. $5,000,000; provided, however, that in no event will more than the Overall Share Limit be granted to any one person during any fiscal year of the Company with respect to one or more Award denominated in Shares. To the extent required by Section 162(m) of the Code, Shares subject to Awards that are canceled shall continue to be counted against the award limits above. For purposes of this Section 11.18(a), each Share subject to an Award (including a Full Value Award) shall be counted as one Share against the specified limit.
(b)    Committee Composition.  To the extent an Award is intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation, the Administrator with respect to such Awards shall be a Committee comprised solely of two or more Directors, each of whom is intended to be an “outside director” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code; provided, that a Committee member’s failure to qualify as an “outside director” within the meaning of Section 162(m) will not invalidate any Award granted by the Committee that is otherwise validly granted under the Plan.  
(c)    Performance-Based Compensation. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may determine at the time an Award is granted or at any time thereafter whether such Award is intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation.  For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall require the Administrator to structure any Awards in a manner intended to constitute Performance-Based Compensation and the Administrator shall be free, in its sole discretion, to grant Awards that are not intended to be Performance-Based Compensation. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan and except as otherwise determined by the Administrator, any Award that is intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth in Section 162(m) of the Code that are requirements for qualification as Performance-Based Compensation, and the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such requirements.  In addition, Awards of Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Shares, Performance Bonus Awards and Other Stock or Cash Based Awards that are intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation shall be subject to the following provisions, which shall control over any conflicting provision in the Plan or any Award Agreement:
(i)    To the extent necessary to comply with the requirements of Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code, no later than ninety (90) days following the commencement of any performance period or any designated fiscal period or period of service (or such earlier time as may be required under Section 162(m) of the Code), the Administrator shall, in writing, (A) designate the Participant to receive such Award, (B) select the Performance Criteria applicable to the performance period, which Performance Criteria shall be limited to the specific performance goals set forth in the definition of Performance Criteria, (C) establish the performance goals (and any exclusions), and amounts of such Awards, as applicable, which may be earned for such performance period based on the Performance Criteria, and (D) specify the relationship between Performance 

24

US-DOCS\76159156.10

Criteria and the performance goals and the amounts of such Awards, as applicable, to be earned by each Participant for such performance period. 
(ii)    Following the completion of each performance period, the Administrator shall certify in writing whether and the extent to which the applicable performance goals have been achieved for such performance period. In determining the amount earned under such Awards, the Administrator shall have the right to reduce or eliminate (but not to increase) the amount payable at a given level of performance to take into account additional factors that the Administrator may deem relevant, including the assessment of individual or corporate performance for the performance period.
(iii)    Unless otherwise specified by the Administrator at the time of grant, the Performance Criteria with respect to an Award intended to be Performance-Based Compensation payable to a Participant shall be determined on the basis of Applicable Accounting Standards.  For this purpose, “Applicable Accounting Standards” means the U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, International Financial Reporting Standards or other accounting principles or standards applicable to the Company’s financial statements under U.S. federal securities laws.
(iv)    No adjustment or action described in Article 9 or in any other provision of the Plan shall be authorized to the extent that such adjustment or action would cause such Award to fail to so qualify as Performance-Based Compensation, unless the Administrator determines that the Award should not so qualify.

AGREEMENT TO TERMINATE
CHANGE IN CONTROL AGREEMENT

 

This Termination Agreement
(this “Agreement”), is hereby entered into between Southern National
Bancorp of Virginia, INC., a Virginia corporation (“SONA”), Sonabank,
a national bank and wholly-owned subsidiary of SONA (“Sonabank”) and Georgia
S. Derrico (“Executive”).

 

WHEREAS, SONA, Sonabank
and Executive are parties to that certain Change in Control Agreement dated August 1, 2006 (the “CIC Agreement”);

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section
5.12(e) of the Agreement and Plan of Merger by and between SONA and Eastern Virginia Bankshares, Inc. dated as of December 13,
2016, as amended (the “Merger Agreement”), SONA shall irrevocably terminate and liquidate the CIC Agreement,
subject to the effectiveness of a general release of claims as of the Effective Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement) in favor
of SONA and its related entities, in exchange for payment to Executive of an amount representing the cash severance that would
have been due her pursuant to the CIC Agreement, determined as if Executive had been terminated in a Qualifying Termination (as
defined in the CIC Agreement), and contingent on the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement;

 

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors
of SONA has previously approved the termination and liquidation of the CIC Agreement; and

 

WHEREAS, SONA
hereby desires to terminate and liquidate the CIC Agreement as provided by the Merger Agreement.

 

NOW THEREFORE, it is agreed
as follows:

 

1.           Termination
of CIC Agreement.

 

(a)          Effective
as of the Effective Time, the CIC Agreement shall hereby be terminated and shall be of no further force and effect; provided, however,
that such termination shall be contingent on the closing of the Merger.

 

(b)          Within
ten (10) business days following the Effective Time, Sonabank shall pay to Executive Two Million Two Hundred Thirteen Thousand
Seven Hundred and Twenty Dollars and Zero Cents ($2,213,720.00), less required tax withholdings and any other amounts required
to be withheld, which amount represents the cash severance that would have been due her pursuant to the CIC Agreement, determined
as if Executive had been terminated in a Qualifying Termination. Executive acknowledges that the payment set forth in this Paragraph
is in addition to anything to which she was already entitled.

 

2.           Executive’s
Acknowledgement, General Release of Claims, and Covenant Not To Sue.

 

(a)          Acknowledgement
regarding CIC Agreement. Executive expressly acknowledges that, upon the payment of the amount specified in paragraph 1(b)
hereof, and except as may be set otherwise forth in this Agreement, any right or claim arising under the CIC Agreement shall be
extinguished and cancelled, and she shall not be eligible to receive from SONA or Sonabank any further amount, benefit or payment
in consideration of the termination of the CIC Agreement.

 

(b)          General
Release of Claims. In consideration of the payments made to her by Sonabank and the promises contained in this Agreement, Executive,
on behalf of herself and her agents and successors in interest, hereby UNCONDITIONALLY RELEASES AND DISCHARGES SONA and

 

     

     

    

  

Sonabank, and their respective
successors, subsidiaries, parent companies, assigns, joint ventures, and affiliated companies and their respective agents, legal
representatives, shareholders, attorneys, employees, members, managers, officers and directors, (collectively, the “Releasees”)
from ALL CLAIMS, LIABILITIES, DEMANDS AND CAUSES OF ACTION which she may by law release, whether known or unknown, fixed or contingent,
that she may have or claim to have against any Releasee for any reason as of the date of execution of this Agreement. This Release
and Covenant Not To Sue includes, but is not limited to, claims arising under federal, state or local laws prohibiting employment
discrimination; claims arising under severance plans and contracts; and claims growing out of any legal restrictions on the Employer’s
rights to terminate its employees or to take any other employment action, whether statutory, contractual or arising under common
law or case law. Executive specifically acknowledges and agrees that she is releasing any and all rights under federal, state and
local employment laws including without limitation the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Older Workers Benefit Protection
Act, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. § 1981, the Americans With Disabilities Act, the Family and Medical
Leave Act, the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act, the anti-retaliation provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act, the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act, the Equal Pay Act, the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining
Notification Act, the Employee Polygraph Protection Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and any and all other local, state, and
federal law claims arising under statute or common law. It is agreed that this is a general release and it is to be broadly construed
as a release of all claims, except those that cannot be released by law.

 

(c)          Covenant
Not to Sue. Except as expressly set forth in Paragraph 2(f) below, Executive further hereby AGREES NOT TO FILE A LAWSUIT or
other legal claim or charge to assert against any of the Releasees any claim released by this Agreement.

 

(d)          Acknowledgement
Regarding Payments and Benefits. Executive acknowledges and agrees that she has received all wages and benefits to which she
is entitled as a result of her employment with Sonabank through the date of execution of this Agreement. Other than the payments
set forth in this Agreement, the parties agree that the Sonabank owes no additional amounts to Executive for wages, back pay, severance
pay, bonuses, damages, accrued vacation, benefits, insurance, sick leave, other leave, or any other reason as a result of her employment
with Sonabank through the date of execution of this Agreement.

 

(e)          Other
Representations and Acknowledgements. This Agreement is intended to and does settle and resolve all claims of any nature that
Executive might have against Sonabank, SONA, and the Releasees arising out of their employment relationship or relating to any
other matter through the date of execution of this Agreement, except those that cannot be released by law. By signing this Agreement,
Executive acknowledges that she is doing so knowingly and voluntarily, that she understands that she may be releasing claims she
may not know about, and that she is waiving all rights she may have had under any law that is intended to protect her from waiving
unknown claims. This Agreement shall not in any way be construed as an admission by Sonabank, SONA, or any of the Releasees of
wrongdoing or liability or that Executive has any rights against Sonabank, SONA, or any of the Releasees. Executive represents
and agrees that she has not transferred or assigned, to any person or entity, any claim that she is releasing in this Agreement.

 

(f)           Protected
Rights.  Executive understands that nothing contained in this Agreement limits her ability to file a charge or complaint
with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the National Labor Relations Board, the Securities and Exchange Commission, or
any other federal, state or local governmental agency or commission (“Government Agencies”).  Executive
further understands that this Agreement does not limit her ability to communicate with any Government Agencies or otherwise participate
in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by any Government Agencies in connection with any charge or complaint,
whether filed by Executive, on her behalf, or by any other individual.  However, based on Executive’s release of claims
set forth in this Agreement, Executive

 

     

     

    

  

understands that she is releasing
all claims that she may have, as well as, to the extent permitted by applicable law, her right to recover monetary damages or obtain
other relief that is personal to Executive in connection with any claim she is releasing under this Agreement.

 

(g)          Additional
Acknowledgments. Sonabank and SONA hereby advise Executive to consult with an attorney prior to executing this Agreement, and
Executive acknowledges and agrees that Sonabank and SONA have advised, and hereby do advise, her of her opportunity to consult
an attorney or other advisor and have not in any way discouraged her from doing so. Executive expressly acknowledges and agrees
that she has been offered at least twenty-one (21) days to consider this Agreement before signing it, that she has read this Agreement
carefully, that she has had sufficient time and opportunity to consult with an attorney or other advisor of her choosing concerning
the execution of this Agreement. Executive acknowledges and agrees that she fully understands that the Agreement is final and binding,
that it contains a full release of all claims and potential claims, and that the only promises or representations she has relied
upon in signing this Agreement are those specifically contained in the Agreement itself. Executive acknowledges and agrees that
she is signing this Agreement voluntarily, with the full intent of releasing Sonabank, SONA, and the Releasees from all claims
covered by this Agreement.

 

(h)          Revocation.
The parties agree Executive may revoke the Agreement at will within seven (7) days after she executes the Agreement by giving written
notice of revocation to Sonabank. Such notice must be delivered to Joe A. Shearin, and must actually be received by him
at or before the above-referenced seven-day deadline. The Agreement may not be revoked after the expiration of the seven-day deadline.
In the event that Executive revokes the Agreement within the revocation period described in this Paragraph, this Agreement shall
not be effective or enforceable, and all rights and obligations hereunder shall be void and of no effect.

 

2.           Miscellaneous.

 

(a)          This
Agreement shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Virginia, without giving
effect to its conflicts of law principles.

 

(b)          The
invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other
provision of this Agreement.

 

(c)          Failure
of either party to insist, in one or more instances, on performance by the other in strict accordance with the terms and conditions
of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of any right granted in this Agreement or of the future performance
of any such term 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.

 

(d)          The
parties understand and agree that because each of them has been given the opportunity to have counsel review and revise this Agreement,
the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed
in the interpretation of this Agreement. Instead, the language of all parts of this Agreement shall be construed as a whole, and
according to its fair meaning, and not strictly for or against any of the parties.

 

(e)          This
Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, and it shall not be necessary that the signatures of the parties hereto
be contained on any one counterpart hereof. Each counterpart shall be deemed an original but all counterparts together shall constitute
one and the same instrument. Any signature page of any such counterpart, or any electronic facsimile thereof, may be attached or
appended to any other counterpart to complete a fully executed counterpart of this Agreement,

 

     

     

    

  

and any telecopy or other electronic transmission
of any signature shall be deemed an original and shall bind such party.

 

(f)           This
Agreement shall be effective as of the Effective Time. In the event the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement shall
not be consummated as provided therein, this Agreement shall be void and of no effect.

 

In
witness whereof, the parties have executed this Agreement on the dates indicated.
