Article 1

Definitions

The following words and phrases used in this Agreement have the meanings specified.

1.1 “Accrual Balance” means the liability that should be accrued by the Bank under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for the Bank’s obligation to the Executive under this Agreement, by applying Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 12, as amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106, and the calculation method and discount rate specified hereinafter. The Accrual Balance shall be calculated assuming a level principal amount and interest as the discount rate is accrued each period. The principal accrual is determined such that when it is credited with interest each month, the Accrual Balance at Normal Retirement Age equals the present value of the normal retirement benefits. The discount rate means the rate used by the Plan Administrator for determining the Accrual Balance. The rate is

based on the yield on a 20-year corporate bond rated Aa by Xxxxx’x, rounded to the nearest ¹/4%. The initial discount rate is 6.50%. In its sole discretion, the Plan Administrator may adjust the discount rate to maintain the rate within reasonable standards according to GAAP.

1.2 “Beneficiary” means each designated person, or the estate of the deceased Executive, entitled to benefits, if any, upon the death of the Executive, determined according to Article 4.

1.3 “Beneficiary Designation Form” means the form established from time to time by the Plan Administrator that the Executive completes, signs, and returns to the Plan Administrator to designate one or more Beneficiaries.

1.4 “Change in Control” shall mean any of the following, each of which shall be construed in a manner that is consistent with the definition of a “change in control event” for purposes of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A and the Regulations thereunder:

(a) Change in Ownership: The date of acquisition by a person or by persons acting as a group of capital stock of the Bank or of MFC, which when added to the stock already owned by that person or the persons acting as a group, constitutes more than 50% of the fair market value or more than 50% of the total voting power of the Bank or of MFC; provided that the person or persons acting as a group did not own more than 50% of the fair market value or total voting power of the Bank or MFC, respectively, prior to such acquisition.

For purposes of determining whether there has been a change in ownership, persons shall not be considered to be acting as a group simply because they purchase or own stock at the same time or as a result of the same public offering. Persons will be considered to be acting as a group if they are owners of a corporation which enters into a merger, consolidation, purchase of stock or similar business transaction with the Bank or MFC. If a person is a shareholder of the Bank or MFC and also of the other corporation that enters into business transaction with the Bank or MFC, respectively, he shall be treated as acting as a group only with respect to the ownership of the Bank or MFC and not with respect to the ownership interest in the other corporation.

(b) Change in Effective Control: The date any one person or more than one person acting as a group acquires (or has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) stock of MFC possessing more than 50% of the total voting power of the stock of MFC.

For purposes of determining whether there has been a change in effective control, persons shall not be considered to be acting as a group simply because they purchase or own stock at the same time or as a result of the same public offering. Persons will be considered to be acting as a group if they are owners of a corporation which enters into a merger, consolidation, purchase of stock or similar business transaction with MFC. If a person is a shareholder of MFC and also of the other corporation that enters into purchase transaction with MFC, he shall be treated as acting as a group only with respect to the ownership of MFC and not with respect to the ownership interest in the other corporation.

(c) Change in Board Composition: The date a majority of the members of MFC’s Board of Directors are replaced during any 12-month period by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the members of MFC’s Board of Directors prior to the date of the appointment or election.

(d) Change in Ownership of Assets: The date a person or persons acting as a group acquires (or has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition) assets of the Bank that have a total gross fair market value exceeding 50% of the total fair market value of all of the assets of the Bank, determined immediately before such acquisition or acquisitions; provided that the acquirer is not a related person as defined in Regs. § 1. 409A-3(i)(5)(vii)(B). Gross fair market value of the assets shall be determined without regard to any liabilities associated with such assets.

Persons will not be considered to be acting as a group solely because they acquire assets of the Bank at the same time; however, persons will be considered to be acting as a group if they are owners of a corporation which enters into a merger, consolidation, purchase of assets or similar business transaction with the Bank or MFC. If a person, including an entity shareholder, owns stock in both corporations that enter into a merger, consolidation, purchase or acquisition of assets or similar transaction, the shareholder shall be considered as acting as a group with other shareholders only to the extent of the ownership of the corporation before the transaction giving rise to the change and not with respect to the ownership interest in the other corporation.

1.5 “Disability” means the Executive is either (a) unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of no less than 12 months; or (b) by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of no less than 12 months, receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than 3 months under a disability plan covering employees of the Bank. Disability shall be determined by a physician chosen by or acceptable to the Bank, in its reasonable discretion. A determination by the Social Security Administration that the Executive is totally and permanently disabled shall also be a sufficient determination of Disability provided the Executive submits to the Bank proof of the Social Security Administration’s determination.

1.6 “Early Termination” means Termination of Employment before Normal Retirement Age for reasons other than death, Disability, Termination for Cause or following a Change in Control.

1.7 “Early Termination Date” means the date on which Early Termination occurs.

1.8 “Good Reason” means:

(a) a material reduction in the Executive’s base compensation;

(b) a material reduction in the Executive’s authority, duties or responsibilities;

(d) a material change in the geographic location at which the Executive must perform services; or

(e) any other action or inaction that constitutes a material breach by the Bank of any employment agreement between the Bank and the Executive;

Provided, however, the Executive shall be required to give written notice to the Bank of the occurrence of the applicable event described in this Section 1.8 within sixty (60) days of the initial occurrence of the event, and the Bank shall have a period of thirty (30) days from the receipt of the notice to remedy the matter. If the Executive fails to give such notice or if the event is so remedied, there shall not be Good Reason.

1.9 “Intentional,” for purposes of this Agreement, no act or failure to act on the part of the Executive shall be deemed to have been intentional if it was due primarily to an error in judgment or negligence. An act or failure to act on the Executive’s part shall be considered intentional if it is not in good faith and if it is without a reasonable belief that the action or failure to act is in the best interests of the Bank.

1.15 “Termination for Cause” means the Bank terminates the Executive’s employment for any of the following reasons —

(b) disloyalty or dishonesty by the Executive in the performance of his or her duties, or a breach of the Executive’s fiduciary duties for personal profit, in any case whether in his or her capacity as a director or officer, or

(c) intentional wrongful damage by the Executive to the business or property of the Bank or its affiliates, including without limitation, the reputation of the Bank, which in the judgment of the Bank causes or is likely to cause material harm to the Bank or affiliates, or

(d) a willful violation by the Executive of any applicable law or significant policy of the Bank or an affiliate that, in the Bank’s judgment, results in an adverse effect

on the Bank or the affiliate, regardless of whether the violation leads to criminal prosecution or conviction. For purposes of this Agreement, applicable laws include any statute, rule, regulatory order, statement of policy, or final cease-and-desist order of any governmental agency or body having regulatory authority over the Bank, or

(e) the occurrence of any event that results in the Executive being excluded from coverage, or having coverage limited for the Executive as compared to other executives of the Bank, under the Bank’s blanket bond or other fidelity or insurance policy covering its directors, officers, or employees, or

(f) the Executive is removed from office or permanently prohibited from participating in the Bank’s affairs by an order issued under section 8(e)(4) or section 8(g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. 1818(e)(4) or (g)(1), or

If the Executive has an involuntary Termination of Employment within 12 months after a Change in Control, or if an event constituting Good Reason occurs within 12 months after a Change in Control and, after giving the required notice and after expiration of the cure period without such cure, the Executive terminates employment for Good Reason within 30 days after expiration of the cure period, the Bank shall pay to the Executive the benefit described in this Section 2.4 instead of any other benefit under this Agreement.

Article 7

Miscellaneous

7.1 Amendments and Termination. This Agreement may be amended or terminated by the Bank, except that no amendment or termination may be made without the written agreement of the Executive if the amendment or termination would reduce or eliminate a vested, accrued benefit of the Executive or would have a materially adverse impact on the Executive’s reasonably expected economic benefit under this Agreement (including, by way of example and not by limitation, the Change of Control Benefit described in Sections 2.4, 2.4.1 and 2.4.2), with the exception of a termination occurring under Article 5 or an amendment required in order to comply with applicable law.

7.2 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall bind the Executive, the Bank, and their beneficiaries, survivors, executors, successors, administrators, and transferees.

7.3 No Guarantee of Employment. This Agreement is not an employment policy or contract. It does not give the Executive the right to remain an employee of the Bank, nor does it interfere with the Bank’s right to discharge the Executive. It also does not require the Executive to remain an employee nor interfere with the Executive’s right to terminate employment at any time.

7.4 Non-Transferability. Benefits under this Agreement cannot be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, attached, or encumbered in any manner.

7.5 Successors; Binding Agreement. The Bank will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Bank, by an assumption agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Executive, to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Bank would be required to perform this Agreement if no such succession had occurred. The Bank’s failure to obtain an assumption agreement before effectiveness of any such succession shall be a breach of this Agreement and shall entitle the Executive to the Change-in-Control benefit provided in Section 2.4.

7.6 Tax Withholding. The Bank shall withhold any taxes that are required to be withheld from the benefits provided under this Agreement.

7.7 Applicable Law. This Agreement and all rights hereunder shall be governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, except to the extent preempted by the laws of the United States of America.

7.8 Unfunded Arrangement. The Executive and Beneficiary are general unsecured creditors of the Bank for the payment of benefits under this Agreement. The benefits represent the mere promise by the Bank to pay benefits. Rights to benefits are not subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment, or garnishment by creditors. Any insurance on the Executive’s life is a general asset of the Bank to which the Executive and Beneficiary have no preferred or secured claim.

7.9 One Benefit Only. Only one benefit shall be payable under this Agreement to the Executive or the Beneficiary, which shall be determined by the first event to occur for which benefits are payable hereunder. No subsequent occurrence of an event shall entitle the Executive or Beneficiary to other or additional benefits under this Agreement; however the payments may be accelerated in accordance with the terms of Sections 2.5 or 3.2.

7.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Split Dollar Agreement attached as Addendum A constitute the entire agreement between the Bank and the Executive concerning the subject matter hereof. No rights are granted to the Executive under this Agreement other than those specifically set forth herein. This Agreement restates, supersedes and replaces in its entirety any previous version of the Agreement and each prior version shall be of no further force or effect.

7.11 Severability. If for any reason any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement not held invalid, and each such other provision shall continue in full force and effect to the full extent consistent with law. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid in part, such invalidity shall not affect the remainder of the provision not held invalid, and the remainder of such provision together with all other provisions of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect to the full extent consistent with law.

7.12 Headings. Caption headings and subheadings herein are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.

7.13 Notices. All notices, requests, demands, and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if delivered by hand or mailed, certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, with postage prepaid. Unless otherwise changed by notice, notice shall be properly addressed to the Executive if addressed to the address of the Executive on the books and records of the Bank at the time of the giving of such notice, and properly addressed to the Bank if addressed to the Board of Directors, MidCarolina Bank, 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx 00000.

(1)	Calculations are approximations. Benefit calculations are based on prior year-end accrual balances. The accrual balance reflects payment at the beginning of each month during retirement, beginning June 1, 2026.

(2)

The Early Termination benefit and the Disability benefit are calculated as an annual payment stream of the Accrual Balance that exists at the end of the year preceding the year in which Early Termination or Disability occurs, using a standard discount rate (6.50%). The Early Termination and Disability benefits continue for the Executive’s lifetime and are included for illustrative purposes only, until age 69.

(3)	Projected retirement occurs on May 31, 2026, with the first normal monthly retirement benefit being paid on June 1, 2026.
