FIXED AND FLEXIBLE PREMIUM LIFE INSURANCE

This Agreement made and entered into this 15th day of April, 2002, by and between AF Bankshares, Inc., a Corporation, hereinafter referred to as “Corporation,” and Xxxxx X. Xxxx, a Key Employee and Executive of the Corporation, hereinafter referred to as “Executive”. Any reference to “Bank” herein shall mean AF Bank.

WHEREAS, the Executive currently serves the Corporation in the capacity of President, Chief Executive Officer and Director. It is the consensus of the Board of Directors that Executive’s services are of exceptional merit, in excess of the compensation to be paid and are an invaluable contribution to the profits and position of the Corporation in its field of activity.

ACCORDINGLY, it is the desire of the Corporation and the Executive to enter into this Agreement under which the Corporation will agree to make certain payments to Executive upon his retirement, disability, change of control of the Corporation or termination of employment without cause by the Corporation and, alternatively, to his beneficiaries in the event of his premature death while employed by Corporation.

FURTHERMORE, it is the intent of the parties hereto that this Agreement be considered an arrangement maintained primarily to provide supplemental retirement benefits for the Executive, as a member of a select group of management or highly-compensated employees of the Corporation for purposes of the Employee Retirement Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA). Executive is fully-advised of the Corporation’s financial status and has had substantial input in the design and operation of this benefit plan.

THEREFORE, in consideration of Executive’s services to be performed in the future and based upon the mutual promises and covenants herein contained, the Corporation and the Executive agree, as follows:

(v) any event which would be described in Articles I, F(a)(i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) if the term “Corporation” were substituted for the term “Bank” therein.

Any act, or failure to act, based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board of Directors or based upon the written advice of counsel for the Corporation shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by Executive in good faith and in the best interests of the Corporation. The cessation of employment of Executive shall not be deemed to be for “cause” within the meaning of Article I, G(a) unless and until there shall have been delivered to Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of three-fourths of the non-employee members of the Board of Directors at a meeting of the Board of Directors called and held for such purpose (after reasonable notice is provided to Executive and Executive is given an opportunity, together with counsel, to be heard before the Board of Directors), finding that, in the good faith opinion of the Board of Directors, Executive is guilty of the conduct described in Article I, G(a) above, and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.

Employment services shall include temporary disability not to exceed six (6) months “leave of absence” specifically granted Executive by the Board of Directors and periods of “military reserve duty”.

No Employment Agreement Created:

No provision of the Agreement shall be deemed to restrict or limit any existing employment Agreement by and between the Corporation and the Executive nor shall any conditions herein create specific employment rights to the Executive nor limit the right of the Employer to discharge the Executive with or without cause. In a similar fashion, no provision shall limit the Executive’s rights to voluntarily sever his/her employment at any time.

III.

BENEFITS

The following benefits provided by the Corporation to the Executive are in the nature of a Fringe Benefit and shall in no event be construed to neither effect nor limit the Executive’s current or prospective salary increases, cash bonuses or profit-sharing distributions or credits.

Retirement Benefits:

If Executive shall remain in the employment of the Corporation until the “Normal Retirement Date” defined at Article I, A, then, in such event, he/she shall be entitled to receive monthly retirement benefits from the Corporation in the amount of $9,228.25 per month. The amount of these payments shall be increased by 8.33% for each year the Executive remains employed by the Corporation after attaining age 70.

Such retirement benefits shall commence on the first day of the month following such “Normal Retirement Date” and shall continue for a period of 180 months.

In the event the Executive should die following “Normal Retirement” but before the expiration of 180 months, the unpaid balance of such monthly payments shall be paid monthly for the remainder of such period to the beneficiary selected by Executive in the Beneficiary Designation Form provided by the Corporation. In the absence of or failure of the Executive to designate a beneficiary, or in the

event the designated beneficiary shall have predeceased the Executive, the unpaid balance shall be computed using a discount rate of six (6) percent and paid in a lump sum to the personal representative of Executive’s estate.

Early Retirement Or Severance Benefit:

Executive shall have the additional elective right to receive “Early Retirement” or “Severance Benefits”, as those terms were earlier-defined, provided he/she is eligible within the meaning of these terms or, in the alternative, is discharged without Due Cause.

Monthly benefits shall be those based upon those specified in Article I, C or D, as applicable and shall commence on the first day of the month following becoming entitled to benefits under this Article III, B.

If the Executive is entitled to benefits due to Early Retirement, such Executive may elect to defer receipt of such benefits until the Executive’s Normal Retirement Date. Such deferred benefits shall be increased using the Xxxxx’x Daily Long-Term Corporate Bond Yield Average for Corporate “Aaa” rate in effect on the anniversary date of the Early Retirement for each year benefits are so deferred. An election to defer benefits shall only be effective if an irrevocable election to defer receipt is received in writing by the Human Resources Department one year prior to the year in which benefits are to be paid.

Such Early Retirement or Severance Benefits, as determined above, shall be payable for a continuous period of 180 months provided, however, that should the Executive die prior to the expiration of 180 months, the unpaid balance shall continue for the remainder of such period to the beneficiary selected by the Executive and filed with the Corporation. In the absence of or a failure to designate a beneficiary, or in the event the designated beneficiary shall have predeceased the Executive, the unpaid balance shall be computed using a discount rate of six (6) percent and paid in a lump sum to the personal representative of the Executive’s estate.

Termination Of Service Or Voluntary Resignation:

Should Executive voluntarily resign from his employment or should he/she be discharged for Due Cause (exclusive of Early Retirement, Severance, Change in Control, Death or Total and Permanent Disability), all Executive’s benefits under this Agreement shall be forfeited and this Agreement shall become null and void. If a dispute arises as to discharge “for Due Cause”, such dispute shall be resolved by arbitration as set forth in Article IV, B.

Death Benefit Prior To Retirement:

Should the Executive die prior to the Normal Retirement Date (exclusive of Early Retirement, Severance, Change in Control or Total and Permanent Disability),

Corporation agrees to pay to the Executive’s designated beneficiary an annual amount equal to 50% of the Executive’s Final Compensation and paid-out in monthly installments for a continuous period of 240 months. The benefits to be paid under this Article III, D shall commence on the first day of the month following the Executive’s death.

If the designated beneficiary should die prior to the expiration of the 240 months, the remaining, unpaid installments shall be computed using a discount rate of six (6) percent and paid in a lump sum to the personal representative of the designated beneficiary as soon as administratively practicable.

Executive shall declare his/her designated beneficiary in writing on a form provided by the Corporation. In the absence of or a failure to designate a beneficiary, or in the event the designated beneficiary shall have predeceased the Executive, the unpaid balance shall be computed using a discount rate of six (6) percent and paid in a lump sum to the personal representative of the Executive’s estate as soon as administratively practicable.

In the event the Executive’s death shall be the result of suicide within a two (2) year period following the effective date of this Agreement, then no death benefits shall be payable to the Executive or his designated beneficiary.

Total And Permanent Disability:

In the event the Executive shall become Totally and Permanently Disabled (either physically or mentally) prior to his/her Normal Retirement Date, all as defined in any disability policy maintained by the Company or the Bank or if no such policy is maintained then under the federal Social Security Act and covering the Executive, in such event, Executive, his/her attorney-in-fact or whomever is appointed his personal guardian shall, upon written request, be entitled to receive each month disability benefits based upon 60% of the Executive’s monthly compensation payable on the first day of the month following the period during which the Executive’s continuous disability shall have met the “waiting period” as defined in such policy or law. Such payments shall be made for a maximum period of 240 months while the Executive is Totally and Permanently Disabled but if the Executive should die prior to the end of the 240 month, the remaining installments shall be computed using a discount rate of six (6) percent and paid in a lump sum to the beneficiary designated by Executive to receive any death benefits hereunder, as earlier-defined in Article III, D, above. If the Executive shall remain Totally and Permanently Disabled until he attains age 67, then the Executive shall cease receiving benefits under this Article III, E and shall begin receiving benefits under Article III, A as if the Executive had attained age 70.

Benefits under this Agreement would be reduced by an amount equal to any benefits received under any group and/or individual disability income contracts obtained by the Bank or Corporation to indemnify the risks associated with the

Executive’s inability to perform the usual and customary duties of his/her regular occupation due to illness or injury at the time the disability commenced.

Change in Control Benefits:

In the event of a Change in Control, Executive shall be entitled to the benefits described in Article III, A commencing as of the date of the Change of Control.

In the event that Executive should die following a Change in Control but before the expiration of 180 months, the unpaid balance of such monthly payments shall be paid monthly for the remainder of such period to the beneficiary selected by Executive in the Beneficiary Designation Form provided by the Corporation. In the absence of a failure of the Executive to designate a beneficiary, or in the event the designated beneficiary shall have predeceased the Executive, the unpaid balance shall be computed using a discount rate of six (6) percent and paid in a lump sum to the personal representative of the Executive’s estate on the first day of the month following the date of the Executive’s death.

IV.

RESTRICTIONS UPON FUNDING

Corporation shall have no obligation to set aside, earmark or entrust any fund or money with which to pay its obligations under this Agreement. The Executive, his/her beneficiaries or any successor in interest to him shall be and remain simply a general creditor of the Corporation in the same manner as any other creditor having a general claim for matured and unpaid compensation.

The Corporation reserves the absolute right to its sole discretion to either fund the obligations undertaken by the Agreement or to refrain from funding the same and to determine the extent, nature, and method of such funding.

At no time shall Executive be deemed to have any lien nor right, title or interest in or to any specific funding investment or to any assets of the Corporation.

If Corporation elects to invest in a life insurance, disability or annuity policy upon the life of Executive, then Executive shall assist the Corporation by freely submitting to a physical exam and supplying such additional information necessary to obtain such insurance or annuities. If the Executive refuses to assist the Corporation in obtaining insurance or annuities or is deemed uninsurable by the insurance or annuity providers, then all of the Executive’s benefits under this Agreement that are unable to be insured shall be forfeited.

It is the intention of the parties to this Agreement that the arrangements under this Agreement be unfunded for tax purposes and for purposes of Title I of ERISA.

Claims Procedure And Arbitration:

In the event a dispute arises over benefits under this Agreement and benefits are not paid to the Executive (or to his/her beneficiary in the case of the Executive’s death) and such claimants feel they are entitled to receive such benefits, then a written claim must be made to the Named Fiduciary and Plan Administrator named above within sixty (60) days from the date payments are refused. The Plan Fiduciary and Plan Administrator and the Corporation shall review the written claim and if the claim is denied, in whole or in part, they shall provide in writing within ninety (90) days of receipt of such claim their specific reasons for such denial, reference to the provisions of this Agreement upon which the denial is based, any additional material or information necessary to perfect the claim, a statement of your right to bring an action under ERISA section 502(a), and a statement of your rights to certain relevant information free of charge. Such written notice shall further indicate the additional steps to be taken by claimants if a further review of the claim denial is desired.

Said Board shall consist of one member selected by the claimant, one member selected by the Corporation and the third member selected by the first two members. The Board shall operate under any generally recognized set of arbitration rules. The parties hereto agree that they and their heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns shall be bound by the decision of such Board with respect to any controversy properly submitted to it for determination. If the Named Fiduciary and Plan Administrator or the Board does not abide by these procedures the claimant is not required to exhaust these administrative remedies prior to seeking relief in court.

Where a dispute arises as to the Corporation’s discharge of Executive “for Due Cause”, such dispute shall likewise be submitted to arbitration as above described and the parties hereto agree to be bound by the decision hereunder.
