Further, Executive must reaffirm and comply with the restrictions contained in Sections 13-16 this Agreement which survive termination of employment.

(b) Alternative Benefit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Corporation terminates the employment of Executive under Section 6 (above) or without Cause under this Section 7 in connection with, or within two (2) years after, a Change of Control and there is a Separation from Service, then Executive shall be eligible to receive the benefits provided by Section 10(a) but will not receive benefits under Section 7(a).

8. Termination by Executive for Good Reason. If, in the absence of a Change of Control, Executive terminates his/her employment under this Agreement for Good Reason and is Separated from Service, Executive shall be entitled to severance and benefits as if Executive were terminated by the Corporation without Cause under Section 7. If, within two (2) years of a Change of Control, Executive terminates his/her employment under this Agreement for Good Reason and is Separated from Service, Executive shall be entitled to severance and benefits as if Executive were terminated by the Corporation without Cause under Section 10.

9. Voluntary Termination by Executive. Except in the case of termination for Good Reason, in the event that Executive terminates or resigns from his/her employment with the Corporation prior to or in connection with the expiration of the Term (and any renewals thereof), then the Corporation shall have no obligation to pay Executive severance benefits of any kind.

Upon receipt of such notice, the Corporation may relieve Executive of his/her duties, in whole or in part, prior to the expiration of the notice period, and his/her right to receive compensation shall end on his/her last day of employment.

10. Change of Control.

(a) Severance Benefit following a Change of Control. If in connection with or within two (2) years after a Change of Control, Executive is Separated from Service either because (i) the Corporation elects not to renew the Agreement under Section 2, (ii) the Corporation terminates Executive's employment without Cause under Section 7, or (iii) Executive terminates his/her employment for Good Reason, then, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Corporation, and/or its surviving or successor entity (See Section 26(a) "Successor") shall pay Executive severance in the form of continued payment of Executive's Base Salary and providing all other compensation benefits of a like kind and value as in effect at the time of a Change of Control, or on the Date of Termination, whichever is greater, for a period of twenty-four (24) months after the Date of Termination. The payment of benefits under Section 10(a) is subject to each of the following: (i) Executive's providing the release required under Section 10(b), (ii) compliance with the tax provisions of Section 10(c) and Section 12 (below), and (iii) compliance with the provisions of Sections 13-16 of this Agreement. Payment of severance under this Section 10(a) shall be in lieu of any other severance and/or benefits that might otherwise be due to Executive under Sections 6, 7 or 8. No payments under this Section 10(a) shall be due if Executive is terminated under Sections 4, 5 or 9. The benefits provided by Section 10(a) will not be available to the Executive if there is a Separation from Service prior to the Change of Control, or if the Separation from Service occurs following expiration of 24 months following the Change of Control.

(b) Preconditions. The payment of any amounts due under this Section 10, if applicable, shall be subject to and conditioned upon prior receipt by the Corporation or its Successor of a separation agreement containing a valid and enforceable waiver and release by Executive, in a form provided by the Corporation, of any and all claims Executive may have against the Corporation, the Bank and their Affiliates their successor, or assigns, or all of their then current or former officers, directors, or employees. Further, Executive must reaffirm and abide by the restrictions contained in this Agreement which survive termination of employment.

(c) Tax Issues. If the payments and benefits pursuant to this Section 10 either alone or together with other payments and benefits which Executive has the right to receive from the Corporation, would constitute a "parachute payment" under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code ("Code"), the payments and benefits payable by the Corporation pursuant to this Section 10 shall be reduced, in the manner determined by Executive, by the amount, if any, which is the minimum necessary to result in no portion of the payments and benefits payable by the Corporation under this Section 10 being non-deductible to the Corporation pursuant to Section 280G of the Code and subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code. The determination of any reduction in the payments and benefits to be made pursuant to this Section 10(c) shall be based upon the opinion of the Corporation's independent public accountants and the fee for such calculation shall be borne by the Corporation. Such accountants shall promptly prepare the foregoing opinion, but in no event later than thirty (30) days from the Date of Termination, and may use such actuaries such as accountants deemed necessary or advisable for the purpose. Nothing contained herein shall result in a reduction of any payments or benefits to which Executive may be entitled upon termination of employment under any circumstances other than as specified in this Section 10.

11. Withholding. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, all payments required to be made by the Corporation to Executive shall be subject to the withholding of such amounts relating to taxes as the Corporation may reasonably determine it should withhold pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

12. Compliance with Code Section 409A.

(a) General. It is intended that this Agreement comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and guidance of general applicability issued thereunder (referred to herein as "Section 409A") so as to not subject Executive to the payment of additional interest and taxes under Section 409A. In furtherance of this intent, this Agreement shall be interpreted, operated and administered in a manner consistent with these intentions, and to the extent Section 409A would result in Executive being subject to the payment of additional income taxes or interest under Section 409A, the parties agree to amend the Agreement to avoid the application of such taxes and interest.

(b) Delayed Payments. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, as needed to comply with Section 409A, if Executive is a "specified employee" (within the meaning of Section 409A), payments due under Sections 6, 7, 8, or 10 above shall be subject to a six (6) month delay such that amounts otherwise payable during the six (6) month period following Executive's Separation from Service shall be accumulated and paid in a lump-sum catch-up payment as of the first day of the seventh month following Executive's Separation from Service (or, if earlier, the date of Executive's death).

(c) Treatment as Separation Pay. This Section 12 shall not apply to the extent such payments can be considered to be separation pay that is not part of a deferred compensation arrangement under Section 409A. If permitted by Section 409A, cash payments to Executive pursuant to Section 5, 7, 8 and 10 shall be considered first to come from separation pay.

13. Loyalty Obligations. Executive acknowledges and agrees that by virtue of Executive's position and involvement with the business and affairs of the Corporation and Bank, Executive has developed and will continue to develop substantial expertise and knowledge with respect to all aspects of the Corporation's business, affairs and operations and has had and will continue to have access to all significant aspects of the business and operations of the Corporation, the Bank and their Affiliates and to Confidential Information.

Executive agrees to hold all such confidential or proprietary information from third parties in the strictest confidence and not to disclose it to any Person or Entity to use it except as necessary in carrying out Executive's work for the Corporation consistent with the obligations of the Corporation or Affiliates to such third party.

(iii) If the cooperation provided occurs when no severance pay is due the Executive, then in addition to reimbursing the Executive for out-of-pocket travel expenses, the Corporation will also reimburse Executive for his time expended on the Corporation's behalf at a rate of $400/day, or a pro-rata portion thereof. The Corporation will make reasonable efforts to accommodate the scheduling needs of Executive so as to avoid, to the maximum extent possible, interference with the Executive's then current duties and responsibilities.

(f) Limitations/Permitted Disclosures. Nothing in this Section 13 or this Agreement shall be construed to prevent, interfere with or restrict the Executive to make disclosures, reports or complaints as authorized, permitted or required by federal or state law, including without limitation pursuant to the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act or Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform Act and Consumer Protection Act or by regulations, rules or orders issued by federal or state regulatory agencies, including without limitations, Virginia Bureau of Financial Institution, Office of Comptroller of the Currency, U.S. Treasury, Bureau of Financial Protection or Securities and Exchange Commission, provided the disclosure does not exceed the extent of disclosure required by such law, regulation, rules or order. Further, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent, impede or interfere (nor shall it be construed to prevent, impede or interfere) with (i) Executive's obligation to provide full, complete and truthful testimony when so required in response to a subpoena or order from a court or government agency; (ii) Executive's right to report (including pursuant to whistleblower laws) possible violations of federal, state or local law or other improper actions/omissions to government agencies, to file a charge or complaint of discrimination, harassment or retaliation with government agencies, or to participate or cooperate in any investigation conducted by any government agency; or (iii) the Executive's right to make confidential disclosures of information (including trade secrets) to a government agency, or to an attorney who is advising the Executive, for the purpose of reporting or as part of an investigation into a suspected violation of law, nor shall it prohibit the Executive from filing a lawsuit, complaint or other document that contains a trade secret, so long as the information containing the trade secret is filed under seal and is not otherwise disclosed except pursuant to court order. Executive understands that his rights when making such protected disclosures are more fully spelled out in 18 USC § 1833, as amended and include immunity from criminal and civil liability from making protected disclosures of trade secrets under the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016. Finally, nothing in this Agreement authorizes the Corporation to terminate Executive's employment or otherwise retaliate against Executive for engaging in any of the foregoing activities.

Unless prohibited by law, regulation or order from doing so, the Executive shall provide written notice of the receipt of a third party request or order to disclose Confidential Information to the designated senior officers of the Corporation within two (2) business days of receiving this request or order, but in any event sufficiently in advance of making any disclosure so as to permit the Corporation, Bank or Affiliates, as appropriate to contest the disclosure ore seek confidentiality protections.

14. Non-Solicitation Restriction. During employment with the Corporation and for the twenty-four (24) month period that immediately following the termination of the Executive's employment (regardless of the circumstances), or such time period as the Corporation is obligated to pay severance benefits under this Agreement (whichever is longer) ("Restricted Period"), Executive shall not unfairly compete with the Corporation (which for purposes of this Section 14 shall include the Corporation, the Bank and all of their Affiliates) by attempting to disrupt business relationships that the Corporation, the Bank or their Affiliates have with either: (i) a Customer (see Section 1(g)) with whom Executive either had communications within the eighteen (18) months prior to the Date of Termination, or as to which Executive received Confidential Information during that eighteen (18) month period, or (ii) a Prospect (see Section 1(k)).

In this regard, Executive shall refrain during the Restricted Period from engaging in any of the following activities, whether Executive alone, or as an officer, director, stockholder, partner, member, investor, employee, consultant or agent for or on behalf of any other person or legal entity:

(1) Attempting to disrupt or interfere with the business relationship with a Customer (as limited above) by directly or indirectly requesting, suggesting, encouraging or advising that Customer to withdraw, curtail, limit, cancel, terminate or not renew all or any portion of the Customer's business with the Corporation, the Bank or their Affiliates.

(2) Solicit the business of a Customer (as limited above) by communicating directly with that Customer (regardless of who initiates the communication and in what form it occurs) when as part of the communication Executive discusses or offers a Competitive Service or Product.

(3) Solicit the business of a Prospect by communicating directly with a Prospect (regardless of who initiates the communication and in what form it occurs) when as part of the communication Executive discusses or offers a Competitive Service or Product with the intent to limit, interfere with or divert the Prospect's business away from the Corporation, the Bank or their Affiliates.

15. Non-Compete Restriction. At all times during employment and during the Restrict Period (defined above) Executive shall not accept employment with or provide services to or on behalf of any Competing Financial Services Organization if (i) the position or the services to be performed by Executive involve the same or substantially similar duties and responsibilities as those performed by Executive on behalf of the Corporation during Executive's last twelve (12) months of employment with the Corporation, or (ii) Executive is providing consulting, advisory or contract services (whether as a director, officer, independent contractor, member, owner or shareholder) related to the design, development, marketing or delivery of Competitive Services or Products that are intended to be competitive with offerings by the Corporation, the Bank or their Affiliates.

(b) Limitation. Nothing in this Section shall prevent Executive from owning stock in a publicly traded company that offers Competitive Services or Products in the areas serviced by the Corporation, the Bank or their Affiliates, provided Executive's ownership constitutes less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of the publicly traded company.

16. Anti-Piracy Restriction. At all times during employment with the Corporation, and during the Restricted Period (defined above), Executive shall refrain from inducing, soliciting or encouraging a Key Employee (defined herein) to leave employment with the Corporation, Bank or Affiliate with the intent, hope or purpose of having the Key Employee join a Competing Financial Services Organization in a similar capacity, if that competitive organization has customer service facilities located within the Restricted Territory (defined above). As used in this Section 16, "Key Employee" means anyone who holds a position of Vice President or higher with the Corporation, the Bank or their Affiliates or any individuals who have reported to, or worked directly with, the Executive within the last six (6) months of Executive's employment with the Corporation.

17. Enforcement. Executive acknowledges that the restrictive covenants set forth above in Sections 13, 14, 15 and 16 are reasonable and necessary in order to protect the legitimate business interests of the Corporation, the Bank and their Affiliates, and that a violation of any of those covenants will result in irreparable injury. In the event of a breach or a threatened breach of any of these Sections of the Agreement, in addition to all other remedies (legal or equitable), the Corporation shall be entitled to specific performance of these provisions and the issuance of a restraining order and/or injunction prohibiting Executive from violating one or more of these restrictions. If litigation is filed which relates to or arises under this Sections 13-17, then in addition to all other remedies, if it substantially prevails, the Corporation shall be entitled to recover its attorneys' fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the litigation (including all appeals), as well as the Corporation's pre-litigation efforts to prevent a breach, to enforce the Agreement. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as limiting or prohibiting the Corporation from pursuing any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of amounts paid in severance or other money damages. Should an injunction be issued, Executive waives the right to require that the court require a bond to be posted in excess of $500.00.

18. Notice of Termination. Any purported termination of Executive's employment under this Agreement (whether by the Corporation or by Executive) shall be delivered in writing by a Notice of Termination to the non-terminating party.

Executive consents to the jurisdiction of these courts, and waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue which Executive otherwise may have to this venue for any such lawsuit.

24. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be construed and applied in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, with the exception of its conflict of law provisions.

25. Survival. Subject to any limits on applicability contained therein, the provisions of Sections 11-17 and 20-27 hereof shall survive and continue in full force in accordance with their terms notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement. Likewise, in the event that the Corporation or a Successor (see Section 26(a)) is obligated to make payments to Executive under this Agreement, and Executive dies before all such payments are made, then the balance of those payments shall be made to Executive's estate.

26. Successors and Assigns.

(a) Corporation. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Corporation and its successors or assigns. In the event that a transaction is a Change of Control event occurs, then in connection with the approval or closing of such transaction, the Corporation shall require as a condition of approval and/or closing of the transaction that the surviving or successor entity ("Successor") execute an agreement, in a form and substance acceptable to Executive, whereby the Successor expressly assume and agree to honor and perform this Agreement in the place of the Corporation.
