WHEREAS, Xxxxxx, First Sentry, FS Holding Company, Wesbanco and Wesbanco Bank hereby agree to amend the Employment Agreement to apply to the employment relationship of Xxxxxx with Wesbanco and Wesbanco Bank from and after the Merger Date, but to be effective if, but only if, the Merger is consummated.

4. Change in Title and Duties. Effective on the Merger Date, Xxxxxx shall become an employee of Wesbanco and Wesbanco Bank and Section C(1) of the Employment Agreement is amended to substitute Senior Vice President – Senior Commercial Lender for Senior Vice President of First Sentry and FS Holding Company in each place where it appears and to restate Xxxxxx’ reporting responsibilities as reporting to the individual appointed by Wesbanco and not directly to the Board of Directors. Wesbanco and Wesbanco Bank shall have no obligation to appoint Xxxxxx as a director of Wesbanco or Wesbanco Bank.

5. Change in Term. Effective on the Merger Date, the term of the Employment Agreement set forth in Section A(1) of the Employment Agreement is amended to be a two-year, non-renewing term commencing on the Merger Date. Any renewal of the term of this Agreement must be in writing and executed by all parties to this Employment Agreement then in existence. At the end of that two-year Term, Xxxxxx will become an employee at will and the term of the Employment Agreement shall end. Without limiting the foregoing, Xxxxxx will not be entitled to a payment if the Employment Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, is not renewed.

6. Change in Base Salary and Incentive Pay. Effective on the Merger Date, the annual Base Salary set forth in Section B(1) shall be amended to be $180,000.

Key Executive Incentive Bonus Option and Restricted Stock Plan.

7. Change in Severance Arrangements. Effective on the Merger Date, Section D is deleted, except for subsections (6) and (7) which are retained for definitional purposes. The deleted portions of Section D are replaced by the following: “If Xxxxxx is terminated by Wesbanco during the amended term of this Amendment for reasons other than Cause, death or Disability, Wesbanco shall pay Taylor a severance payment equal to his base pay at the rate then in effect for the shorter of the then remaining term as amended, or one year, whichever is less.”

8. Reduction in Term of Restricted Covenants. The term of restrictions in Section E 1 are each amended to be for a period of one year following Xxxxxx’x termination from employment.

9. Remaining Provisions. Except (a) as amended in this Amendment and (b) for those provisions of the Employment Agreement not specifically amended but inconsistent with the amendments made in this Amendment, the remaining provisions of the Employment Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
