AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of October 4, 2018, between UNION BANKSHARES CORPORATION, a Virginia corporation (“UBSH”), and ACCESS NATIONAL CORPORATION, a Virginia corporation (“ANCX”).

WHEREAS, the Boards of Directors of UBSH and ANCX have approved, and deem it advisable and in the best interests of their respective shareholders to consummate, the business combination transaction provided for herein in which ANCX will merge with and into UBSH (the “Merger”); and

WHEREAS, the Boards of Directors of UBSH and ANCX have each determined that the Merger is consistent with and will further their respective business strategies and goals; and

WHEREAS, as an inducement for each party to enter into this Agreement, certain shareholders of each of UBSH and ANCX have simultaneously herewith entered into affiliate agreements in the form of Exhibit A and Exhibit B, respectively, in connection with the Merger (collectively, the “Affiliate Agreements”); and

WHEREAS, it is the intention of the parties that, for federal income tax purposes, the Merger shall qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Treasury regulations promulgated under the Code (and any future amendments to such regulations and any corresponding provisions of succeeding regulations) (the “Treasury Regulations”), and that this Agreement shall constitute, and is adopted as, a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-2(g) for purposes of Sections 354, 356 and 361 of the Code (and any comparable provision of state Law) for federal and applicable state income tax purposes.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1
THE MERGER AND RELATED MATTERS

Section 1.1 The Merger.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in accordance with the Virginia Stock Corporation Act (the “VSCA”), at the Effective Time (as defined in Section 1.3), ANCX will be merged with and into UBSH pursuant to the Plan of Merger, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C and made a part hereof (the “Plan of Merger”). The separate corporate existence of ANCX thereupon shall cease, and UBSH will be the surviving corporation in the Merger (UBSH is referred to herein as the “Continuing Corporation” whenever reference is made to it as of the Effective Time or thereafter). The Merger will have the effect set forth in Section 13.1-721 of the VSCA.

Section 1.2 Closing.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) will take place at 10:00 a.m. at the offices of Covington & Burling LLP, 850 10th St NW, Washington, DC 20001 on the date that the Effective Time occurs, which date shall be no later than three (3) business days following the satisfaction or waiver (subject to applicable Law) of the latest to occur of the conditions set forth in Article 6 (other than those conditions that by their nature only can be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver thereof), unless accelerated or extended as both parties may agree (the “Closing Date”). All documents required by this Agreement to be delivered at or prior to the Closing Date will be exchanged by the parties at or by the Closing.

Section 1.3 Effective Time.

On the Closing Date, UBSH and ANCX will execute and file articles of merger meeting the requirements of Section 13.1-720 of the VSCA, including containing the Plan of Merger (the “Articles of Merger”), with the Virginia State Corporation Commission (the “SCC”). The Merger shall become effective at the time the Certificate of Merger is issued by the SCC (or at such later time as may be specified by mutual agreement of the parties in the Articles of Merger), as provided in Sections 13.1-720 and 13.1-606 of the VSCA (the date and time the Merger becomes effective being the “Effective Time”).

Section 1.4 Corporate Governance and Related Matters.

On or prior to the Effective Time, subject to compliance by the Board of Directors of the Continuing Corporation with its fiduciary duties (including compliance with the Continuing Corporation’s Organizational Documents and Corporate Governance Guidelines), the Board of Directors of UBSH shall cause Michael W. Clarke, or, if Mr. Clarke is unable or unwilling to serve as a director of the Continuing Corporation, a director of ANCX that is mutually agreeable to ANCX and UBSH, (the “ANCX Director”) to be appointed as a director of the Continuing Corporation as of the Effective Time to serve until the next annual meeting of the shareholders of the Continuing Corporation following the Effective Time. Subject to compliance by the Board of Directors of the Continuing Corporation with its fiduciary duties (including compliance with the Continuing Corporation’s Organizational Documents and Corporate Governance Guidelines), the Continuing Corporation shall nominate the ANCX Director for reelection to the Board of Directors of the Continuing Corporation at the first annual meeting of the shareholders of the Continuing Corporation following the Effective Time, and the Continuing Corporation’s proxy materials with respect to such annual meeting shall include the recommendation of the Board of Directors of the Continuing Corporation that its shareholders vote to reelect the ANCX Director to the same extent as recommendations are made with respect to other directors on the Board of Directors of the Continuing Corporation.

Section 1.5 Banking Operations.

(a) After the Effective Time, Access National Bank, a national banking association and wholly owned subsidiary of ANCX (“Access National Bank”), shall merge with and into Union Bank & Trust, a Virginia chartered bank and wholly owned subsidiary of UBSH (“Union Bank”) (the “Bank Merger”), pursuant to the terms and conditions of an Agreement and Plan of Merger substantially in the form attached as Exhibit D (the “Bank Merger Agreement”) and the separate existence of Access National Bank shall cease and Union Bank shall survive and continue to exist as a bank incorporated and chartered under the Laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. UBSH may at any time change the method or timing of effecting the combination of Access National Bank and Union Bank if and to the extent UBSH deems such changes necessary, appropriate or desirable for any reason in its discretion (including to ensure that the Merger qualifies as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code); provided, that no such change shall (i) alter or change the amount or kind of Merger Consideration (as defined herein), (ii) adversely affect the ability of the Merger to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, (iii) materially impede or delay consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (iv) result in the Bank Merger occurring prior to the Merger of ANCX and UBSH; and provided, further, that (x) UBSH shall provide ANCX with five days’ prior written notice of such change and the reasons therefor, and (y) UBSH shall not make any change that would materially affect the Tax consequences to ANCX or its shareholders without the prior written consent of ANCX (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(b) On or prior to the effective time of the Bank Merger, UBSH as the sole shareholder of Union Bank shall cause the ANCX Director to be appointed as a director of Union Bank as of the effective time of the Bank Merger to serve until the next annual meeting of the shareholder of Union Bank following the Effective Time. Provided that the ANCX Director continues to be eligible to serve as a director of the Continuing Corporation, and subject to compliance by the Board of Directors of Union Bank with its fiduciary duties (including compliance with Union Bank’s Organizational Documents and Corporate Governance Guidelines) Union Bank shall nominate the ANCX Director for reelection to the Board of Directors of Union Bank at the first annual meeting of the shareholder of Union Bank following the Effective Time.

Section 1.6 Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Continuing Corporation.

As of the Effective Time, the articles of incorporation, as amended, of UBSH (the “UBSH Articles”) and bylaws, as amended, of UBSH, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Continuing Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with the provisions thereof and applicable Law.

Section 1.7 Tax Consequences.

Each of the parties intends, and undertakes and agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Merger, and to take no action which would cause the Merger not, to constitute a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder for federal and applicable state income tax purposes. The parties adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-2(g) for purposes of Sections 354, 356 and 361 of the Code (and any comparable provision of state Law) for federal and applicable state income tax purposes. ANCX and UBSH shall prepare and file with each of their respective Tax Returns all information required by Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-3 and related provisions of the Treasury Regulations in a manner consistent with treating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as a reorganization described in Section 368(a) of the Code and shall take no position (whether in audits, Tax Returns or otherwise) that is inconsistent with this treatment unless required to do so by applicable law. Each of the parties shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause their appropriate officers to execute and deliver to its respective counsel, certificates containing appropriate representations and covenants, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to such counsel, at such time or times as may be reasonably requested by such counsel, including as of the effective date of the Joint Proxy Statement and the Closing Date, in connection with such counsel’s deliveries of opinions with respect to the Tax treatment of the Merger.

Section 1.8 Appraisal Rights.

In accordance with Section 13.1-730 of the VSCA, no appraisal rights shall be available to the holders of ANCX Common Stock in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

ARTICLE 2
MERGER CONSIDERATION; EXCHANGE PROCEDURES

Section 2.1 Conversion of Shares.

At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of UBSH, ANCX or any holder of any of the following securities:

(a) Each share of common stock, par value $1.33 per share, of UBSH (“UBSH Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain an issued and outstanding share of common stock of the Continuing Corporation and shall not be affected by the Merger.

(b) All shares of common stock, par value $0.835 per share, of ANCX (“ANCX Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that are owned, directly or indirectly, by UBSH or ANCX (other than shares of ANCX Common Stock held in trust accounts (including grantor or rabbi trust accounts), managed accounts and similar accounts, or otherwise held in a fiduciary or agency capacity, that are beneficially owned by third parties) (any such shares, the “ANCX Cancelled Shares”) shall no longer be outstanding, shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(c) Each share of ANCX Common Stock, except for ANCX Cancelled Shares, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will cease to be outstanding and will be converted automatically into and exchanged for the right to receive 0.75 shares (the “Exchange Ratio”) of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock, par value $1.33 per share, of the Continuing Corporation (“Continuing Corporation Common Stock”) (with respect to a given share of ANCX Common Stock, the “Merger Consideration”); it being understood that upon the Effective Time, pursuant to Section 2.1(a), UBSH Common Stock, including the shares issued to former holders of ANCX Common Stock, shall be the Continuing Corporation Common Stock, and use its reasonable best efforts to make the Letter of Transmittal available to any such shareholder who requests such Letter of Transmittal following the initial delivery of the Letter of Transmittal.

(d) If, between the date hereof and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of UBSH Common Stock or ANCX Common Stock shall have been increased, decreased, changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or securities as a result of a reorganization, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or similar change in capitalization, appropriate and proportionate adjustments shall be made to the Exchange Ratio, and any other amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 2.2 Exchange Procedures.

(a) Appointment of Exchange Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, UBSH shall appoint an exchange and paying agent reasonably acceptable to ANCX (the “Exchange Agent”) for the payment and exchange of the Merger Consideration.

(b) At or prior to the Effective Time, UBSH shall, for exchange in accordance with this Article 2, (i) deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent an amount of cash sufficient to pay the cash payable in lieu of fractional shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock, to the extent determinable, and (ii) evidence of shares in book-entry form, representing the shares of the Continuing Corporation Common Stock to be issued and paid pursuant to this Article 2 (collectively with the cash deposited pursuant to Section 2.2(b)(i), the “Exchange Fund”).

(c) Letter of Transmittal. UBSH shall prepare appropriate and customary transmittal materials (such materials and instructions to include customary provisions with respect to delivery of an “agent’s message” with respect to Book-Entry Shares) on which UBSH and ANCX shall mutually agree (the “Letter of Transmittal”). The Letter of Transmittal shall specify that delivery of the Letter of Transmittal and, as applicable, title and risk of loss with respect to (i) an outstanding Certificate or outstanding Certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represent outstanding shares of ANCX Common Stock (the “Certificates”), and (ii) uncertificated shares of ANCX Common Stock represented by book-entry (“Book-Entry Shares”), in each case other than ANCX Cancelled Shares, shall be effected only upon proper delivery of the completed Letter of Transmittal and, as applicable and subject to Section 2.3(d), the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent. UBSH shall make available and mail the Letter of Transmittal not more than five (5) business days after the Effective Time to all Persons who were record holders of shares of ANCX Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time.

Section 2.3 Exchange of Shares.

(a) Each holder of an outstanding share of ANCX Common Stock who has properly surrendered their Certificates or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent (or has complied with Section 2.3(d)), together with a Letter of Transmittal duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto and such other documentation as the Exchange Agent and UBSH may require, shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration with respect to such share of ANCX Common Stock in non-certificated book-entry form and any cash in lieu of fractional shares which such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.6 in respect of the Certificate or Book-Entry Share surrendered pursuant to the provisions of this Article 2, in accordance with Section 2.3(b).

(b) Whenever a holder of an outstanding share of ANCX Common Stock shall become entitled to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.3(a), in addition to the rights of such holder set forth in Section 2.4, any such holder shall be entitled to receive:

(i) evidence of issuance in non-certificated book-entry form the number of whole shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock into which the aggregate number of shares of ANCX Common Stock previously represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares surrendered shall have been converted pursuant to this Agreement; and

(ii) a check representing the amount of cash for fractional shares, if any, into which the aggregate number of shares of ANCX Common Stock previously represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares surrendered shall have been converted pursuant to Section 2.6 of this Agreement.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Exchange Agent shall not be obligated to deliver the Merger Consideration or any cash in lieu of fractional shares to which any holder of ANCX Common Stock is entitled as a result of the Merger until such holder surrenders his, her or its Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, or otherwise complies with Section 2.3(d), for exchange as provided in Section 2.3(a). Whenever a holder of an outstanding share of ANCX Common Stock shall become entitled to receive any Merger Consideration and any cash in lieu of fractional shares, the Continuing Corporation shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Exchange Agent to deliver such Merger Consideration to such holder within two (2) business days thereafter.

(c) Abandoned Property. Any other provision of this Agreement notwithstanding, neither the Continuing Corporation nor the Exchange Agent shall be liable to a holder of ANCX Common Stock for any amounts paid or property delivered in good faith to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property Law.

(d) Lost Certificates. A holder of ANCX Common Stock whose Certificates have been lost, destroyed, stolen or are otherwise missing shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration and dividends or distributions to which such shareholder shall be entitled, if any, upon compliance with reasonable conditions imposed by the Continuing Corporation and the Exchange Agent pursuant to applicable Law and as required in accordance with the Continuing Corporation’s and the Exchange Agent’s respective standard policies (including the requirement that the shareholder furnish an affidavit of lost certificate, surety bond or other customary indemnity).

(e) Exchange Fund. The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as directed by the Continuing Corporation; provided, that no such investment or losses thereon shall affect the Merger Consideration, and the Continuing Corporation shall promptly provide additional funds to the Exchange Agent for the benefit of holders of ANCX Common Stock in the amount of any such losses to the extent necessary for payment of the cash portion of the Merger Consideration. Any interest or other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to the Continuing Corporation or as directed by the Continuing Corporation. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (and any interest or other income earned thereon) that remains unclaimed by the former holders of ANCX Common Stock for 12 months after the Effective Time shall, to the extent permitted by Law, be paid to the Continuing Corporation. Any former holder of ANCX Common Stock who has not theretofore complied with this Article 2 shall thereafter look only to the Continuing Corporation for payment of the Merger Consideration, any cash in lieu of fractional shares, and any unpaid dividends and distributions on Continuing Corporation Common Stock deliverable in respect of each former share of ANCX Common Stock such shareholder holds as determined pursuant to this Agreement, in each case, without any interest thereon.

(f) Rounding. All dollar amounts payable to any registered holder of ANCX Common Stock pursuant to this Article 2 shall be rounded to the nearest whole cent (with one-half cent being rounded upward), based on the aggregate amount payable for all shares of ANCX Common Stock registered in such shareholder’s name.

Section 2.4 Rights of Former Holders of ANCX Common Stock.

At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of ANCX shall be closed as to holders of ANCX Common Stock, and no transfer of ANCX Common Stock by any such holder shall thereafter be made or recognized. Until surrendered for exchange in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.3(a), each Book-Entry Share or Certificate shall from and after the Effective Time represent for all purposes only the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration in exchange therefor. To the extent permitted by Law, former holders of record of ANCX Common Stock shall be entitled to vote after the Effective Time at any meeting of Continuing Corporation shareholders the number of whole shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock into which their respective shares of ANCX Common Stock are converted, regardless of whether such holders have surrendered their Book-Entry Shares or Certificates for exchange as provided in Section 2.3(a). Whenever a dividend or other distribution is declared by the Continuing Corporation on Continuing Corporation Common Stock, the record date for which is at or after the Effective Time, the declaration shall include dividends or other distributions on all shares issuable pursuant to this Agreement, but no dividend or other distribution payable to the holders of record of ANCX Common Stock, if any, as of any time subsequent to the Effective Time shall be delivered to the holder of any Book-Entry Share or Certificate issued and outstanding at the Effective Time until such holder surrenders such Book-Entry Share or Certificate for exchange as provided in Section 2.3(a). However, upon surrender of such Book-Entry Share or Certificate representing ANCX Common Stock, the Merger Consideration, together with all such undelivered dividends or other distributions without interest, shall be delivered and paid with respect to each Book-Entry Share or other share represented by such Certificate.

Section 2.5 ANCX Stock Options and Other Equity-Based Awards.

(a) Section 2.5(a) of the ANCX’s Disclosure Letter lists all of the equity or equity-based compensation plans maintained by ANCX under which awards are currently outstanding or any awards may be made thereunder (each, an “ANCX Stock Plan”). At the Effective Time, each option to purchase shares of ANCX Common Stock (an “ANCX Stock Option”) granted under an ANCX Stock Plan, whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, (i) only with respect to ANCX Stock Options granted on or before the date of this Agreement, fully vest to the extent not previously vested, (ii) cease to represent a right to purchase shares of ANCX Common Stock, and (iii) convert automatically into an option to purchase a number of shares of UBSH Common Stock (each, a “Converted Stock Option”) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the total number of shares of ANCX Common Stock subject to such ANCX Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (y) the Exchange Ratio, with any fractional shares rounded down the next lower whole number of shares. Each Converted Stock Option will have an exercise price per share of UBSH Common Stock equal to (A) the per share exercise price for the shares of ANCX Common Stock subject to such ANCX Stock Option, divided by (B) the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. In the case of any ANCX Stock Option that is intended to qualify as an incentive stock option under Section 421 of the Code, the adjustments described above will be made in accordance with Treas. Reg. 1.424-1(a), and for each other ANCX Stock Option in accordance with Treas. Reg. 1.409A-1(b)(5)(v)(D). Except as specifically provided above, following the Effective Time, each Converted Stock Option shall otherwise be subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to the converted ANCX Stock Option under the applicable ANCX Stock Plan and the agreements evidencing the relevant grants thereunder, other than with respect to vesting for ANCX Stock Options granted on or before the date of this Agreement. Any Converted Stock Option that is an ANCX Stock Option granted after the date of this Agreement (except with respect to any ANCX Stock Option granted to a director of ANCX) shall continue to be subject to the vesting terms in effect as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, unless otherwise agreed in writing by UBSH.

(b) At or prior to the Effective Time, the Board of Directors of ANCX or a committee thereof, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions which are reasonably necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.5, including, but not limited to, delivering written notice (in form reasonably approved by UBSH) to each holder of an ANCX Stock Option of the treatment of such award pursuant to this Section 2.5.

Section 2.6 No Fractional Shares.

There has occurred no Default under any such license, franchise, permit, or authorization, and to its Knowledge no suspension or cancellation of any such necessary license, franchise, permit or authorization is threatened.

(ii) It has and its Subsidiaries have, with respect to each Benefit Plan, previously made available to the other party true and complete copies of the following documents, to the extent applicable: (A) all current Benefit Plan agreements and documents (including any amendments or modifications thereto) and related trust agreements, annuity contracts, or any other funding arrangement and any amendments thereto; (B) all current summary plan descriptions (including any summaries of material modifications thereto) and material communications to employees and Benefit Plan participants and beneficiaries; (C) the Form 5500 filed in each of the most recent two plan years (including all schedules thereto and the opinions of independent accountants); (D) the most recent actuarial valuation; (E) the most recent annual and periodic accounting of plan assets; (F) all information regarding determination of full-time status of employees for purposes of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, as amended (the “ACA”), including any look-back measurement periods thereunder; (G) if the Benefit Plan is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) or 403(a) or 403(b) of the Code, the most recent determination letter or opinion letter, as applicable, received from the Internal Revenue Service; (H) copies of the most recent nondiscrimination tests for all Benefit Plans; (I) copies of all material correspondence with any Governmental Authority within the last five years, including but not limited to any investigation materials, any “top hat” filings, and any filings under amnesty, voluntary compliance, or similar programs; and (J) a written summary of the material terms of any unwritten Benefit Plans.

(iii) Neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor any ERISA Affiliate has at any time within the last six (6) years (or at any time prior to such six-year period to the extent any liability has or could reasonably be expected to result) been a party to or maintained, sponsored, contributed to, or been obligated to contribute to, or had any liability with respect to: (A) any plan subject to Title IV of ERISA, including a “multiemployer plan” (as defined in ERISA Section 3(37) and 4001(a)(3) or Section 414(f) of the Code) or a plan subject to Code Section 412; (B) a “multiple employer plan” (within the meaning of ERISA or Section 413(c) of the Code); (C) any voluntary employees’ beneficiary association (within the meaning of Section 501(c)(9) of the Code); (D) a “multiple employer welfare association” as defined in Section 3(40) of ERISA; or (E) a self-funded health or other welfare benefit program.

To its Knowledge, nothing has occurred since the date of any such determination that is reasonably likely to affect adversely such qualification or exemption. There have been no “terminations,” “partial terminations” or “discontinuances of contributions,” as such terms are used in Section 411 of the Code and the regulations thereunder, to any tax-qualified plan during the preceding five years without notice to and approval by the Internal Revenue Service and payment of all obligations and liabilities attributable to such tax-qualified plans.

All contributions to any Benefit Plan have been contributed within the time specified in ERISA and the Code and the respective regulations thereunder. Each Benefit Plan may be terminated as of or after the Closing Date without resulting in any liability to UBSH or the Continuing Corporation for any additional contributions, penalties, premiums, fees, fines, excise Taxes, or any other charges or liabilities.

(vii) Neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in any prohibited transactions, as defined in Section 4975 of the Code or Section 406 of ERISA, with respect to any Benefit Plan or its related trust. To its Knowledge, no “fiduciary,” as defined in Section 3(21) of ERISA, of any Benefit Plan has any liability (including threatened, anticipated or contingent) for breach of, or has breached its, fiduciary duty under ERISA.

(viii) There are no actions, suits, investigations or claims pending, or to its Knowledge threatened or anticipated, with respect to any Benefit Plans (other than routine claims for benefits). No Benefit Plan is the subject of a pending or, to its Knowledge, threatened investigation or audit by the Internal Revenue Service, the U.S. Department of Labor, the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, or any other federal or state governmental department or entity.

(ix) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will (either alone or in conjunction with any other event) (A) result in, cause the vesting, exercisability or delivery of, or increase in the amount or value of, any payment, right or other benefit to any current or former employee, leased employee, independent contractor, officer, director or other service provider of it or any of its Subsidiaries, or (B) result in any (1) requirement to fund any benefits or set aside benefits in a trust (including a rabbi trust) or (2) limitation on the right of it or any of its Subsidiaries to amend, merge, terminate or receive a reversion of assets from any Benefit Plan or related trust. On or after the date hereof, but prior to the Effective Time, ANCX shall deliver to UBSH its preliminary estimate and analysis as to whether any amount paid or payable to any of its employees or independent contractors (whether in cash, in property, or in the form of benefits) by it or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (either solely as a result thereof or as a result of such transactions in conjunction with any other event) will be an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code (the “280G Analysis”). Neither ANCX nor its Subsidiaries are required to make or will make any payments or provide any benefits that will be an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code. In addition to the foregoing, except as otherwise set forth in Section 3.2(p)(ix) of ANCX’s Disclosure Letter, no amounts payable in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (whether in cash, in property, or in the form of benefits) shall be non-deductible pursuant to Section 162(m) of the Code. No Benefit Plan maintained by it or any of its Subsidiaries provides for the gross-up or reimbursement of Taxes under Section 4999 or 409A of the Code, or otherwise.

(x) Each Benefit Plan that is a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” (as defined in Section 409A(d)(1) of the Code) and any award thereunder, in each case that is subject to Section 409A of the Code, has (i) since January 1, 2005, been maintained and operated, in all material respects, in good faith compliance with Section 409A of the Code and IRS Notice 2005-1 and (ii) since January 1, 2009, been, in all material respects, in documentary and operational compliance with Section 409A of the Code. Each Benefit Plan of it and its Subsidiaries which is an “employee pension benefit plan” within the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA that is not qualified under Section 401(a) or 403(a) of the Code is exempt from Parts 2, 3, and 4 of Title I of ERISA as an unfunded plan that is maintained primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees, pursuant to Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3), and 401(a)(1) of ERISA and it has filed a “top hat” registration letter with the Department of Labor for each such plan.

(xi) It and its Subsidiaries have made prior to the date hereof all bonus and commission payments to which they were required or are otherwise committed to make to any employee or independent contractor under any Benefit Plan for calendar years 2015, 2016 and 2017. It and its Subsidiaries have properly accrued, in accordance with GAAP and consistent with past practice, all accrued and unused paid time off under any policy of it and its Subsidiaries.

(xii) Each Benefit Plan of it and its Subsidiaries that is a health or welfare plan has terms that are in compliance with and has been administered in accordance with the requirements of the ACA. It and its Subsidiaries have complied in all respects with the requirements of Section 4980H of the Code so as to avoid the imposition of any Taxes or assessable payments thereunder. Neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries has any liability or obligation to provide post-retirement or post-termination health, medical or life insurance benefits to any employees or former employees, leased employees, independent contractors, officers, or directors, or any dependent or beneficiary thereof, except as otherwise required under state or federal benefits continuation Laws for which the covered individual pays the full cost of coverage. In the case of any such required continuation coverage, except as set forth in Section 3.2(p)(xii) of ANCX’s Disclosure Letter, the covered individual is required to pay the full cost of coverage. No Tax under Code Sections 4980B, 4980H or 5000 has been incurred with respect to any Benefit Plan and to its Knowledge no circumstance exists which could give rise to such Tax.

(xiii) No Benefit Plan maintained by it or its Subsidiaries (other than an ANCX Stock Plan, ANCX Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan or the ANCX 401(k) Plan) permits investments in equity of ANCX or investments in which the value is based on or associated with equity of ANCX or UBSH.

(ii) Neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor any ERISA Affiliate has at any time been a party to or maintained, sponsored, contributed to, or been obligated to contribute to, or had any liability with respect to: (A) any plan subject to Title IV of ERISA, including a “multiemployer plan” (as defined in ERISA Section 3(37) and 4001(a)(3) or Section 414(f) of the Code), or a plan subject to Code Section 412; (B) a “multiple employer plan” (within the meaning of ERISA or Section 413(c) of the Code); (C) any voluntary employees’ beneficiary association (within the meaning of Section 501(c)(9) of the Code); (D) a “multiple employer welfare association” as defined in Section 3(40) of ERISA; or (E) a self-funded health or other welfare benefit plan.

To its Knowledge, nothing has occurred since the date of any such determination that is reasonably likely to affect adversely such qualification or exemption. There have been no “terminations,” “partial terminations” or “discontinuances of contributions,” as such terms are used in Section 411 of the Code and the regulations thereunder, to any tax-qualified plan during the preceding five years without notice to and approval by the Internal Revenue Service and payment of all obligations and liabilities attributable to such tax-qualified plans.

It and its Subsidiaries are insured with reputable insurers against such risks and in such amounts as its management reasonably has determined to be prudent in accordance with industry practices, and are in compliance in all material respects with their insurance policies and are not in Default under any of the terms thereof. Each such insurance policy is outstanding and in full force and effect, and, except for policies insuring against potential liabilities of officers, directors and employees of it and its Subsidiaries, it or its relevant Subsidiary is the sole named beneficiary of such policies, and all premiums and other payments due under any such policy have been paid, and all claims thereunder have been filed in due and timely fashion.

Set forth in Section 3.2(r) of its Disclosure Letter is a list of all insurance policies or bonds currently maintained by it and its Subsidiaries.

ANCX shall immediately (within twenty four (24) hours) notify UBSH orally and in writing of its receipt of any such Acquisition Proposal or any request for nonpublic information or any inquiry that could reasonably be expected to lead to any Acquisition Proposal, the material terms and conditions thereof, and the identity of the Person making such Acquisition Proposal, and will thereafter keep UBSH apprised of any related developments, discussions and negotiations on a current basis, including by providing a copy of all material documentation or correspondence relating thereto.

(c) The term “Acquisition Proposal” means, other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any offer, proposal, indication of interest or inquiry (whether communicated to ANCX or publicly announced to ANCX’s shareholders and whether binding or non-binding) by any Person relating to any of the following transactions or series of related transactions involving ANCX, or its Subsidiaries: (i) a merger, consolidation, share exchange, business combination, reorganization, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or other similar transaction involving ANCX or its Subsidiaries whose assets, individually or in the aggregate, constitute more than 25% of the consolidated assets of ANCX; (ii) any acquisition or purchase, direct or indirect, of 25% or more of the consolidated assets of ANCX and its Subsidiaries or 25% or more of any class of equity or voting securities of ANCX or its Subsidiaries whose assets, individually or in the aggregate, constitute more than 25% of the consolidated assets of ANCX; or (iii) any tender offer (including a self-tender offer) or exchange offer that, if consummated, would result in such third party beneficially owning 25% or more of any class of equity or voting securities of ANCX or its Subsidiaries whose assets, individually or in the aggregate, constitute more than 25% of the consolidated assets of ANCX.

(d) The term “Superior Proposal” means an unsolicited, bona fide written Acquisition Proposal made by a Person that the Board of Directors of ANCX concludes in good faith, after consultation with its outside financial and legal advisors, taking into account all relevant factors (including the legal, financial, regulatory and other aspects of the Acquisition Proposal, including the likelihood of obtaining financing and of receiving all required approvals of Governmental Authorities, and including the terms and conditions of this Agreement (as it may be proposed in writing to be amended by UBSH)) is reasonably likely to be consummated in accordance with its terms, and, if consummated, would result in a transaction that is more favorable to the shareholders of ANCX from a financial point of view, than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (as it may be proposed in writing to be amended by UBSH); provided, that, for purposes of this definition of “Superior Proposal,” “Acquisition Proposal” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 5.5(c), except the reference to “25% or more” in such definition shall be deemed to be a reference to “50% or more”.

(e) Except as provided in Section 5.5(f) and Section 5.5(g), neither the Board of Directors of ANCX, the Board of Directors of UBSH, nor, in each case, any committee thereof shall withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify in any manner adverse to the other party, or propose publicly to withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify in any manner adverse to the other party, the approval or recommendation of the Board of Directors of ANCX or UBSH, as applicable, or any such committee thereof with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (a “Change in ANCX Recommendation” or a “Change in UBSH Recommendation,” respectively).

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at any time prior to the ANCX Shareholders Meeting, the Board of Directors of ANCX may (i) make a Change in ANCX Recommendation (although the resolutions approving this Agreement as of the date hereof may not be rescinded or amended), in which event the Board of Directors of ANCX may communicate the basis for its lack of ANCX Board Recommendation to its shareholders in the Joint Proxy Statement or an appropriate amendment or supplement thereto to the extent required by Law or (ii) terminate the Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(i) and enter into an Acquisition Agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal subject to compliance with Section 7.4(b); provided, that the Board of Directors of ANCX may only take actions under this Section 5.5(f), if, (A) an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal (that did not result from a breach of this Section 5.5) is made to ANCX by a third party, and such Acquisition Proposal is not withdrawn, (B) the Board of Directors of ANCX has concluded in good faith (after consultation with its outside financial and legal advisors) that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal, (C) the Board of Directors of ANCX have concluded in good faith (after consultation with their financial and legal advisors) that failure to do so would be a violation of its fiduciary duties to its shareholders under applicable Law, (D) five (5) business days shall have elapsed since ANCX has given written notice to UBSH advising UBSH that ANCX intends to take such action and specifying in reasonable detail the reasons therefor, including, all information required to be delivered under Section 5.5(b) (a “Notice of Change”) (it being understood that any amendment to any material term of such Acquisition Proposal shall require a new Notice of Change and determination as referred to in this Section 5.5(f)), (E) during such five (5) business day period, ANCX has and has caused its outside financial and legal advisors to, consider and, at the reasonable request of UBSH, engage in good faith discussions with UBSH regarding, any adjustment or modification of the terms of this Agreement proposed in writing by UBSH, and (F) the Board of Directors of ANCX, following such five (5) business day period, again reasonably determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside financial and legal advisors, and taking into account any adjustment or modification of the terms of this Agreement proposed in writing by UBSH by the conclusion of such five (5) business day period) that such Acquisition Proposal nonetheless continues to constitute a Superior Proposal and that failure to take such action would be a violation of its fiduciary duties to its shareholders under applicable Law. Notwithstanding a Change in ANCX Recommendation, unless this Agreement has been terminated pursuant to Section 7.1, the ANCX Shareholders Meeting shall be convened and this Agreement shall be submitted to the shareholders of ANCX at the ANCX Shareholders Meeting for the purpose of voting on the approval of this Agreement and the other matters contemplated hereby.

(g) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at any time prior to the UBSH Shareholders Meeting, the Board of Directors of UBSH may make a Change in UBSH Recommendation (although the resolutions approving this Agreement as of the date hereof may not be rescinded or amended), in which event the Board of Directors of UBSH may communicate the basis for its lack of UBSH Board Recommendation to its shareholders in the Joint Proxy Statement or an appropriate amendment or supplement thereto to the extent required by Law; provided, that the Board of Directors of UBSH may only take actions under this Section 5.5(g), if(A) the Board of Directors of UBSH have concluded in good faith (after consultation with their outside financial and legal advisors) that failure to do so would be a violation of its fiduciary duties to its shareholders under applicable Law, (B) five business days shall have elapsed since UBSH has given written notice to ANCX advising ANCX that UBSH intends to take such action and specifying in reasonable detail the reasons therefor, (C) during such five business day period, UBSH has and has caused its outside financial and legal advisors to, consider and, at the reasonable request of ANCX, engage in good faith discussions with ANCX regarding, any adjustment or modification of the terms of this Agreement proposed in writing by ANCX, and (D) the Board of Directors of UBSH, following such five business day period, again reasonably determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside financial and legal advisors, and taking into account any adjustment or modification of the terms of this Agreement proposed in writing by ANCX by the conclusion of such five business day period) that failure to take such action would be a violation of its fiduciary duties to its shareholders under applicable Law.

(h) ANCX and its Subsidiaries shall, and ANCX shall direct its representatives to, (i) immediately cease and cause to be terminated any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any Persons conducted heretofore with respect to any offer or proposal that constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, (ii) request the prompt return or destruction of all confidential information previously furnished to any Person (other than UBSH and its representatives) that has made or indicated an intention to make an Acquisition Proposal, and (iii) not waive or amend any “standstill” provision or provisions of similar effect to which it is a party or of which it is a beneficiary and shall strictly enforce any such provisions.

(i) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit ANCX or its Board of Directors or any committee thereof from at any time taking and disclosing to ANCX’s shareholders, a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9, Rule 14e-2(a), or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act with respect to an Acquisition Proposal; provided, that such rules will in no way eliminate or modify the effect that any action pursuant to such rules would otherwise have under this Agreement.

Section 5.6 Applications and Consents.

(a) The parties hereto shall cooperate and use their reasonable best efforts to prepare as promptly as possible all documentation, to effect all filings and to obtain all permits, consents, approvals, waivers, non-objections and authorizations of each Governmental Authority and all third parties that are necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Regulatory Approvals”) and will make all necessary filings, including supplemental responses thereto, in respect of the Regulatory Approvals as soon as practicable. Each of the parties hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to comply with the terms and conditions of all such Regulatory Approvals and resolve objections, if any, which may be asserted with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby under any applicable Law; provided, that, in no event shall UBSH or its Subsidiaries be required, and ANCX and its Subsidiaries shall not be permitted (without UBSH’s prior written consent), in connection with a Regulatory Approval or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to take any action, or commit to take any action, or to accept any restriction or condition, involving ANCX, UBSH or their respective Subsidiaries, which would reasonably be expected to be materially financially burdensome to the business, operations, financial condition or results of operations on UBSH’s business or on the business of ANCX or Access National Bank (which restriction, commitment, or condition could include materially increasing capital, divesting or reducing lines of businesses or asset classes, entering into compliance or remediation programs, and making material lending or investment commitments) (any such condition, commitment or restriction, a “Burdensome Condition”).

(b) Each party hereto will promptly furnish to the other party copies of applications filed with all Governmental Authorities with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, subject to applicable Laws regarding the sharing of information. Each party will consult with the other party with respect to the obtaining of all Regulatory Approvals and other material consents from third parties necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and each party will keep the other party apprised of the status of matters relating to the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, subject to applicable Laws regarding the sharing of information.

(c) Each party agrees, upon request, subject to applicable Laws, to promptly furnish the other party with all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, directors, officers and shareholders and such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with any filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of such other party or any of its Subsidiaries to any third party or Governmental Authority.

The parties hereto will consult with each other as to the form and substance of any press release or other public statement (including communications to employees, agents and contractors) related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby prior to issuing such press release or public statement or making any other public disclosure related thereto and shall not issue such press release or other public statement without the prior written consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided, that nothing in this Section 5.7 shall prohibit any party from making any disclosure necessary in order to satisfy such party’s disclosure obligations imposed by applicable Law or the rules established by Nasdaq or any other securities exchange, in which case the party required to make the disclosure shall use its reasonable best efforts to allow the other party reasonable time to comment on such disclosure in advance of the issuance thereof. The parties have agreed upon the form of a joint press release announcing the execution of this Agreement.

Section 5.8 Employee Benefit Plans.

(a) As of the Effective Time and for a period of one year thereafter (or such shorter period of employment, as the case may be), the Continuing Corporation shall provide to employees of ANCX and its Subsidiaries, who after the Effective Time become employees of the Continuing Corporation or its Subsidiaries (“ANCX Continuing Employees”) (i) base salary or wages that are comparable to the base salary or wages provided to either (x) such employee immediately prior to the Effective Time or (y) similarly situated employees of the Continuing Corporation and its Subsidiaries; (ii) incentive compensation opportunities that are comparable to the incentive compensation opportunities provided to either (x) such employee immediately prior to the Effective Time or (y) similarly situated employees of the Continuing Corporation and its Subsidiaries; and (iii) employee benefits (other than equity incentive compensation and defined benefit retirement benefits) which are, in the aggregate, comparable to the employee benefits provided to either (x) such employees immediately prior to the Effective Time or (y) similarly situated employees of the Continuing Corporation and its Subsidiaries, in each case of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), with the choice between sub-clauses (x) and (y) to be determined by UBSH in its sole discretion; provided that the Continuing Corporation may provide such benefits to ANCX Continuing Employees under the Benefit Plans of ANCX or a Subsidiary, under benefit plans maintained by the Continuing Corporation (“Continuing Corporation Plans”) or by a combination thereof.

(b) For purposes of eligibility and participation (except as otherwise provided below for paid-time off), in any benefit plan of the Continuing Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, but not benefit accrual, service with or credited by ANCX or any of its Subsidiaries (including service with any predecessor of ANCX or any of its Subsidiaries) shall be treated as service with the Continuing Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries to the same extent that such service was recognized by ANCX under a corresponding Benefit Plan; provided, that such recognition of service shall not (i) operate to duplicate any benefits of an ANCX Continuing Employee with respect to the same period of service or (ii) apply for purposes of any plan, program, policy, agreement or arrangement (x) under which similarly-situated employees of the Continuing Corporation or its Subsidiaries do not receive credit for prior service or (y) that is grandfathered or frozen, either with respect to level of benefits or participation.

(c) ANCX shall amend its paid time off policy effective as of no later than December 31, 2018, to provide that employees may rollover to a subsequent calendar year no more than 40 hours of unused paid time off. On or before December 31, 2018 (or such other time as may be mutually agreed in writing between ANCX and UBSH), ANCX and its Subsidiaries shall pay to employees any accrued and unused paid time off in excess of 40 hours. ANCX shall provide to UBSH all information and documentation reasonably requested by UBSH evidencing the foregoing. UBSH shall have a right to review and approve in advance (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) the policy amendment and related employee communications. From and after the Effective time, the vacation and paid-time off policies of ANCX and its Subsidiaries shall be frozen and ANCX Continuing Employees shall be covered under the applicable policy of Union Bank. For purposes of vacation and sick leave under the Union Time Away From Work Policy (“Union PTO Policy”), ANCX Continuing Employees shall receive credit for purposes of eligibility and future benefit accrual for prior service with ANCX or any of its Subsidiaries and shall be eligible to rollover into the “PTOR” subaccount of the Union PTO Policy for use for vacation or sick time, up to a maximum of 40 hours of unused amounts that were carried over from the prior year under ANCX’s paid time off policy.

(d) To the extent permitted under applicable Law, the Continuing Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause welfare Continuing Corporation Plans that cover the ANCX Continuing Employees after the Effective Time to (i) waive any waiting period and restrictions and limitations for preexisting conditions or insurability (except for pre-existing conditions that were excluded, or restrictions or limitations that were applicable, under the corresponding Benefit Plans of ANCX or a Subsidiary), and (ii) cause any deductible, co-insurance, or maximum out-of-pocket payments made by the ANCX Continuing Employees under welfare Benefit Plans maintained by ANCX for the plan year in which the Closing Date occurs to be credited to such ANCX Continuing Employees under welfare Continuing Corporation Plans for the same plan year, so as to reduce the amount of any deductible, co-insurance, or maximum out-of-pocket payments payable by such ANCX Continuing Employees under welfare Continuing Corporation Plans.

(e) Prior to the Effective Time, ANCX shall vest 100% all accrued benefits for affected participants under the Access National Corporation Profit Sharing Plan (the “ANCX 401(k) Plan”), effective on and subject to the consummation of the Merger. Following the Effective Time, UBSH shall cause the ANCX 401(k) Plan to be merged into the 401(k) plan maintained by UBSH (the “UBSH 401(k) Plan” and together with the ANCX 401(k) Plan, each a “401(k) Plan”), with such merger to be completed by December 31, 2019. Each party agrees to amend its 401(k) Plan to the extent necessary to ensure that there is no duplication of participation or benefits under the 401(k) Plans and ANCX agrees to amend the ANCX 401(k) Plan, effective immediately prior to the Effective Time, to provide that no additional amounts under the ANCX 401(k) Plan may be invested in the ANCX stock fund under the ANCX 401(k) Plan on or after the Effective Time, and to timely distribute any and all required notices to participants, beneficiaries, shareholders or others in connection with such amendment and to timely take any and all other action required in connection with such amendment. To the extent any employer matching contributions for 2018 have been accrued under, but not yet contributed to, the ANCX 401(k) Plan as of the Effective Time, the Continuing Corporation shall make or shall cause its Subsidiary to make, such contributions to the ANCX 401(k) Plan in a timely manner. No ANCX Continuing Employee shall be eligible to participate in the 2018 UBSH/Union Bank profit sharing program, which amounts are (if any) payable in 2019. Without limiting the foregoing, it is the intent of UBSH that ANCX Continuing Employees, to the extent the applicable employee meets the other eligibility requirements therein, shall be eligible for the Union Bankshares Corp. Employee Stock Ownership Plan not earlier than the regular entry date under such plan that first follows the Effective Time.

(f) All employees of ANCX or a Subsidiary with employment agreements are listed in Section 5.8(f) of ANCX’s Disclosure Letter and ANCX and UBSH agree that Section 5.8(f) of ANCX’s Disclosure Letter shall apply to such employees. UBSH will decide prior to the Effective Time which of those employees will receive an offer of employment with the Continuing Corporation. Any such employee who receives and accepts an offer of employment will be employed by the Continuing Corporation or a Subsidiary as an at-will employee and pursuant to terms established by the Continuing Corporation and will be an ANCX Continuing Employee. Any such ANCX Continuing Employee shall be eligible, immediately following the Effective Time, to become a participant in a Continuing Corporation severance plan, based on his or her position with the Continuing Corporation, if any such plan is available to similarly situated employees of the Continuing Corporation.

(g) At the written request of UBSH, with such written request provided to ANCX in a timely manner as to allow ANCX to comply with any notice requirements under any applicable Benefit Plan or related service contract, ANCX shall terminate any Benefit Plan of ANCX or a Subsidiary (other than the ANCX 401(k) Plan), in accordance with applicable Law and effective immediately prior to the Effective Time, if the ANCX Continuing Employees will become eligible to participate in the corresponding Continuing Corporation Plan at the Effective Time, and pay any benefits due thereunder in accordance with the terms of any such plan.

(h) As promptly as practical, and in any event prior to the Effective Time, ANCX shall notify UBSH in writing of: (i) all terminations, hiring, engagements and promotions of employee or independent contractor after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time permitted by Section 4.1(e) and (ii) increases in compensation and benefits, bonus payments and equity grants permitted by Section 4.1(e).

(i) Within 30 days following the date hereof, ANCX will provide to UBSH a supplement Section 3.2(o)(i)(A) of ANCX’s Disclosure Letter that includes, for each employee the following information: whether full-time or part-time, Fair Labor Standards Act designation, current annual bonus opportunity, fringe benefits (other than employee benefits applicable to all employees), bonus payouts for the past three years, and immigration status.

(j) Nothing in this Section 5.8 shall (i) constitute an amendment to any Benefit Plan or any UBSH Benefit Plan, (ii) be construed to limit the right of the Continuing Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, from and after the Effective Time, to amend or terminate any of the benefit plans maintained by UBSH or ANCX or their respective Subsidiaries before the Effective Time to the extent that such benefit plans permit any such amendment or termination, or (iii) confer on any Continuing Employee or any other Person any rights to employment or other service relationship.

UBSH shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the shares of the Continuing Corporation Common Stock to be issued to holders of ANCX Common Stock in the Merger or that may be issued pursuant to Converted Stock Options that are exercised after the Effective Time to be approved for listing on Nasdaq, subject to official notice of issuance, prior to the Effective Time.

Section 5.10 Indemnification.

(a) Following the Effective Time, the Continuing Corporation shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless any Person who has rights to indemnification from ANCX or any of its Subsidiaries (an “Indemnified Party”) (in any capacity), against all costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgements, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to, the fact that such Person is or was a director or officer of ANCX and pertaining to matters, acts or omissions existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including matters, acts or omissions occurring in connection with the approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (each a “Claim”), whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the same extent and on the same conditions as such Person was entitled to indemnification pursuant to applicable Law and ANCX’s Organizational Documents or any ANCX Subsidiary’s Organizational Documents, as the case may be, or any indemnification agreements to which an Indemnified Party is a party as in effect on the date of this Agreement, subject, in call cases, to the provisions in this Section 5.10.

(b) Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under Section 5.10(a), upon learning of any such Claim, shall promptly notify the Continuing Corporation thereof. In the event of any such Claim (whether arising before or after the Effective Time): (i) the Continuing Corporation shall have the right to assume the defense thereof and the Continuing Corporation shall not be liable to such Indemnified Parties for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Parties in connection with the defense thereof, (ii) the Indemnified Parties will cooperate in the defense of any such matter, and (iii) the Continuing Corporation shall not be liable for any settlement effected without its prior written consent; provided, further, that the Continuing Corporation shall not have any obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Party when and if a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine, and such determination shall have become final, that the indemnification of such Indemnified Party in the manner contemplated hereby is prohibited by applicable Law.

(c) UBSH, or ANCX in consultation with UBSH, shall at or prior to the Effective Time, purchase a six (6) year “tail” prepaid policy on terms and conditions providing substantially equivalent benefits as the current policies of the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by ANCX with respect to matters arising at or prior to the Effective Time, covering, without limitation, the Merger; provided, however, that the aggregate cost of such “tail” policy shall in no event exceed three hundred percent (300%) of the current annual premium paid as of the date hereof by ANCX for such insurance (the “Maximum Amount”). If the premium necessary to purchase such “tail” prepaid policy exceeds the Maximum Amount, UBSH will obtain the maximum amount of that insurance obtainable for a premium equal to the Maximum Amount.

(d) This covenant is intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party and his or her respective heirs and legal representatives. The rights to indemnification and the other rights provided for herein shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnified Party is entitled, whether pursuant to Law, contract or otherwise.

(e) If the Continuing Corporation or any of its successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving Person of such consolidation or merger, transfers all or substantially all of its assets or deposits to any other Person or engages in any similar transaction, then in each case, the Continuing Corporation will cause proper provision to be made so that the successors and assigns of the Continuing Corporation will expressly assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.10. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent required by any agreement previously entered into by ANCX in connection with a merger, acquisition or other business combination, the provisions of this Section 5.10 shall apply to directors, officers, employees and fiduciaries of predecessor entities previously acquired by ANCX.

The parties hereto agree to reflect any such change in an appropriate amendment to this Agreement executed by both parties in accordance with Section 8.2.

Section 5.14 Restructuring Efforts.

If either party shall have failed to obtain the ANCX Shareholder Approval or the UBSH Shareholder Approval, as applicable, at the duly convened ANCX Shareholders Meeting or UBSH Shareholders Meeting, as applicable, or any adjournment or postponement thereof, each of the parties shall in good faith use its reasonable best efforts to negotiate a restructuring of the transaction provided for herein (it being understood that neither party shall have any obligation to alter or change any material terms, including the Exchange Ratio or the Merger Consideration, in a manner adverse to such party or its shareholders or adversely affect the Tax treatment of the Merger with respect to ANCX’s shareholders) and/or resubmit this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (or as restructured pursuant to this Section 5.14) to its respective shareholders for approval.

Section 5.15 Takeover Laws.

Neither party hereto shall take any action that would cause any Takeover Laws to become applicable to this Agreement, the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby and each party hereto shall take all necessary steps to exempt (or ensure the continued exemption of) the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby from any applicable Takeover Laws now or hereafter in effect.

Section 8.8 Waiver of Jury Trial.

Each party acknowledges and agrees that any controversy which may arise under this Agreement is likely to involve complicated and difficult issues, and therefore each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right such party may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation, directly or indirectly, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each party certifies and acknowledges that (i) no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of any action, suit or proceeding, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver, (ii) it understands and has considered the implications of this waiver, (iii) it makes this waiver voluntarily, and (iv) each party has been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 8.8.

Section 8.9 Severability.

In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, such holding shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any other provisions hereof. Any provision of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable only in part or degree shall remain in full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable. Further, the parties agree that a court of competent jurisdiction may reform any provision of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable so as to reflect the intended agreement of the parties hereto.

A reference to any “copy” or “copies” of a document, agreement or instrument means a copy or copies that are complete and correct. Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, all accounting terms used in this Agreement will be interpreted, and all accounting determinations under this Agreement will be made, in accordance with GAAP.

All references to “the transactions contemplated by this Agreement” (or similar phrases) include the transactions provided for in this Agreement, including the Merger and the Bank Merger. Any contract or Law defined or referred to herein or in any contract that is referred to herein means such contract or Law as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of contracts) by waiver or consent and (in the case of Law) by succession of comparable successor Law and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein. The term “made available” means any document or other information that was (a) provided (whether by physical or electronic delivery) by one party or its representatives to the other party or its representatives at least two business days prior to the date hereof, (b) included in the virtual data room (on a continuation basis without subsequent modification) of a party at least two business days prior to the date hereof, or (c) filed by a party with the SEC and publicly available on EDGAR at least two business days prior to the date hereof.
