NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and conditions herein contained, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:
1. EMPLOYMENT.
| (a) |
The Bank shall employ Executive as President, with the duties, responsibilities and powers of such office as provided in the Bank’s By-Laws and/or as assigned to him by the Chief Executive Officer of the Bank or the Bank’s parent corporation Altrust Financial Services, Inc. (the “Company”), and Executive shall serve the Bank in such capacities during the term of this Agreement. Executive acknowledges and agrees that such duties, responsibilities and powers may be changed from time to time by the Chief Executive Officer of the Bank, that the position held by Executive may be changed or that the Executive’s employment may be terminated pursuant to Section 4. | |
| (b) |
Executive represents, warrants and covenants to the Bank and the Company that he is available immediately to commence his duties hereunder and that this Agreement and his performance of services hereunder does not breach or conflict with any agreements with any previous employers or other agreements or instruments to which Executive is a party or may be bound, and that he shall faithfully and diligently discharge his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement, and shall use his best efforts to implement the policies established by the Boards of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer of the Bank and the Company, respectively, and shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Company, the Bank and their directors, employees, controlling persons and representatives from any claims by his previous employers. | |
| (c) |
During the term of this Agreement, Executive shall devote his full and exclusive business time, attention, energy and skill to the business of the Bank, to the promotion of the interests of the Bank and to the fulfillment of Executive’s obligations hereunder. |
2. TERM.
The initial term of this Agreement shall be one (1) year from the date hereof, unless further extended by mutual consent of the Bank and Executive or sooner terminated as herein provided. Unless written notice of non-renewal is given by any party hereto no less than 90 days prior to the end of the initial term hereof or any subsequent renewal term hereof, this Agreement shall automatically be extended on each anniversary date for an additional one (1) year term, unless sooner terminated by either party.
3. COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS.
The Bank shall pay or provide to Executive the following items as compensation for his service hereunder:
| (i) | A base salary of $225,000 per year, payable in accordance with the Bank’s standard payroll practices, which base salary may be increased from time to time by the Bank’s Board of Directors, Compensation Committee, and/or Chief Executive Officer, as applicable pursuant to the Bank’s procedures, in accordance with normal business practices of the Bank (the “Base Salary”); and |
| (ii) | Hospitalization insurance (including major medical) in accordance with the Bank’s insurance plans for its executive officers (“Senior Management”) as such plans may be modified from time to time; and |
| (iii) | Reasonable monthly dues for clubs for business entertainment and civic purposes that provide potential business development opportunities, in accordance with the Bank’s policies, subject to the prior approval of the Bank’s Board of Directors and/or the Chief Executive Officer, as applicable pursuant to the Bank’s procedures; and |

Such shares shall be restricted stock subject to a five (5) year restriction period from the date of hire and the realization of performance goals specified in the Award Agreement, at which time unrestricted ownership will vest with Executive; provided, however, that the five (5) year restriction period will lapse and all such shares of restricted stock shall vest upon the occurrence of a Change in Control. |
2
| (v) | To the extent consistent with the Company’s general human resources policies, the number of years in which Executive was employed by the employer immediately previous to his employment by the Bank will be taken to account when determining the number of years of continuous employment of Executive for the purposes of calculating paid time off. |
The above-stated terms of compensation shall not be deemed exclusive or prevent Executive from receiving any other compensation, including, without limitation, bonuses and equity incentives, provided by the Bank and/or the Company. Executive shall be entitled to participate in all current and future employee benefit plans and arrangements in which the Senior Management of the Bank is permitted to participate, on such basis as the Bank’s Board of Directors, Compensation Committee and/or the Chief Executive Officer, as applicable pursuant to the Bank’s procedures, determines in its discretion. Executive acknowledges that no additional compensation or other benefits will be payable by the Company hereunder.
4. TERMINATION.
Executives’ employment under this Agreement shall terminate, and the effective date of termination shall be referred to as the “Termination Date”:
| (a) Death. |
Upon Executive’s death; or | |
| (b) Disability. |
Upon written notice from the Bank to Executive, or from Executive to the Bank, in the event Executive becomes “permanently disabled”. For purposes of this Agreement, Executive shall be deemed “permanently disabled” if he has been disabled by bodily or mental illness, disease, or injury, to the extent that, in the opinion of the Chief Executive Officer of the Bank, he is materially prevented from performing the duties of his employment hereunder, and provided further that such disability has continued substantially for six (6) months. If requested by the Bank, Executive shall submit to an examination by a physician selected by the Bank for the purpose of determining or confirming the existence or extent of any disability; or | |
| (c) Cause. |
Upon written notice from the Bank to Executive for “cause.” For purposes of this Agreement, “cause” shall be (i) a willful and continued failure by Executive to perform his duties as provided in Section 1 above (other than due to disability); or (ii) a breach by Executive of his duties of loyalty, care or good faith to the Bank or the Company; or (iii) a willful violation by Executive of any provision of this Agreement; or (iv) a conviction or the entering of a plea of nolo contendere or similar plea by Executive for any felony or any crime involving fraud, dishonesty or a breach of trust; or (v) a breach of the Bank’s Code of Ethics or other policies, or (vi) commission by Executive of a willful or negligent act which causes material harm to the Bank or the Company; or (vii) habitual absenteeism, alcoholism or other form of drug or other addiction; or (viii) any violation of laws or regulations such that Executive ceases to be | |
3
| eligible to serve as an executive officer of a depository institution or a depository institution holding company; or (ix) Executive becomes ineligible to be bonded at costs consistent with the Bank’s and/or the Company’s other senior officers; or (x) a claim is made against Executive that interferes with the performance of his duties hereunder. In addition, if Executive shall terminate his employment for a breach or an alleged breach of this Agreement by the Bank and/or the Company in accordance with Section 4(e), and it is ultimately determined that no reasonable basis existed for Executive’s termination on account of the alleged default of the Bank and/or the Company, such event shall be deemed to be for “cause” pursuant hereto. | ||
| Any notice of termination of Executive’s employment with the Bank for cause shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the facts and circumstances claimed to provide the basis for termination of his employment under the provisions contained herein; or | ||
| (d) Change in Control. |
Upon written notice by Executive to the Bank following a “Change in Control” (as defined in this Section 4(d)), provided Executive terminates his employment after sixty (60) days but within one (1) year following the effective date of such Change in Control. Subject to the limitations set forth in the next succeeding paragraph, for purposes of this Agreement, a “Change in Control” shall be deemed to have occurred if (i) the Bank or the Company shall become a direct or indirect subsidiary of, or shall be merged or consolidated with or into another entity, which entity is neither controlled by the Company nor the Bank or if 51% or more of the shares of capital stock of the Company or the Bank (or any successor to the Company or the Bank) entitled to vote in the election of directors (the “Voting Securities”) are not held by persons who were shareholders of the Bank or Company immediately before the transaction; or (ii) all or substantially all of the assets of the Bank or Company shall be sold or transferred to a person or entity, which person or entity is neither controlled by the Bank or Company, or if 51% or more of the Voting Securities are not held by persons who were shareholders of the Bank or Company immediately prior to the asset sale; or (iii) any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder), or any “group” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder), who is/are not, at the date hereof, beneficial owners (individually or collectively) of 5% or more of the Voting Securities become(s) the “beneficial owner” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) of securities of the Bank or the Company representing 51% or more of the Voting Securities. | |
| Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not include (i) any | ||
4
| circumstance set forth in the preceding paragraph to the extent the triggering event is a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or the Bank; or (ii) an acquisition by an underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an offering of such securities; or (iii) an acquisition by the Company or the Bank, or an affiliate of the Company or the Bank, which reduces the number of Voting Securities outstanding and thereby results in any person or group acquiring beneficial ownership of more than 51% of the outstanding Voting Securities; provided, that if after such acquisition by the Company or the Bank such person becomes the beneficial owner of additional Voting Securities that increases the percentage of outstanding Voting Securities beneficially owned by such person, a Change in Control shall then occur; or (iv) a transaction in which Voting Securities are acquired from the Company or the Bank, if a majority of the Incumbent Directors (as defined below) approve a resolution providing expressly that the acquisition pursuant to this clause (iv) does not constitute a Change in Control under Section 4(d). For purposes hereof, “Incumbent Directors” shall mean individuals who, at the date of any transaction that would constitute a Change in Control, constitute the Board of Directors cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board of Directors, provided that any person becoming a director after such date and whose election or nomination for election was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the Incumbent Directors then on the Board of Directors (either by a specific vote or by approval of the proxy statement of the Company in which such person is named as a nominee for director, without written objection to such nomination) shall be an Incumbent Director. | ||
| Any notice of termination of Executive’s employment with the Bank or the Company for a Change in Control shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the facts and circumstances claimed to provide the basis for termination of his employment under the provisions contained herein; or | ||
| (e) Breach. |
Upon written notice from Executive to the Bank of the Bank’s and/or the Company’s failure to comply with any material provision of this Agreement, provided that the Bank or the Company, as the case may be, shall have thirty (30) days from the receipt of such notice to cure any such failure under this Agreement. If such failure shall be cured, Executive shall have no right to terminate his employment under the provisions of this Section 4(e). | |
| Any notice of termination of Executive’s employment with the Bank or the Company for breach under this Section 4(e) shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the facts and circumstances claimed to provide the basis for termination of his employment under the provisions contained herein; or | ||
5
| (f) Change in Position or Duties. |
Upon written notice from Executive to the Bank, in the event that Executive is not elected President of the Bank with the duties and powers which are customarily associated with such offices, or in the event the duties and powers assigned to Executive by the Chief Executive Officer of the Bank are materially reduced below the duties and powers which are customarily associated with such offices, or in the event that the compensation paid to Executive is materially reduced below the amount of compensation that is customarily associated with such offices, or in the event of a change in job location of more than fifty (50) miles. The Bank shall have thirty (30) days from the receipt of such notice to cure any such failure under this Agreement. If such failure shall be cured, Executive shall have no right to terminate his employment under this Section 4(f). | |
| Any notice of termination of Executive’s employment with the Bank for a change as set forth under this Section 4(f) shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the facts and circumstances claimed to provide the basis for termination of his employment under the provisions contained herein. | ||
|
5. COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS PAYABLE UPON TERMINATION

During Executive’s employment hereunder, the Bank shall make all payments to Executive in accordance with its normal practices.

Upon Executive’s death, the Bank shall pay Executive’s Base Salary and accrued restricted stock benefits based upon remaining vesting term through the date of Executive’s death (with any unvested restricted stock reverting to the Company) as well as any other compensation to which Executive has earned and is then entitled to as provided herein. In addition, the Bank shall continue to pay for and provide to Executive’s spouse and eligible dependents hospitalization insurance premiums (including major medical) for a period of one (1) year or until their earlier death(s). | |

In addition, the Bank shall continue to pay for and provide to Executive’s spouse and eligible dependents hospitalization insurance premiums (including major medical) for a period of one (1) year or until their earlier death(s). | ||
| (d) Termination. | ||

The compensation and benefits payable under this Section 5(d) are hereinafter referred to as “Severance Benefits”, and the applicable period over which the Base Salary plus Cash Bonuses are payable under this Section 5(d)(i) is referred to respectively as the “Restricted Period”. | |
| (iv) |
The payment of Severance Benefits is in recognition and consideration of the value of continued services by Executive to the Bank and is not in any way to be construed as a penalty or damages. Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment of Severance Benefits by seeking other employment or otherwise. The payment of Severance Benefits shall not affect any other sums or benefits otherwise payable to Executive under any other employment compensation or benefit or welfare plan of the Bank. | |
| (e) Other Termination. |

| (f) Other. |
In the event of any termination, the Bank shall have a right of set-off against any amounts due hereunder (which right shall include the right to retain or require Executive to surrender any shares of restricted stock) if the Bank incurs any expenses due to third parties (other than tax liabilities as an employer) as a result of Executive’s employment by the Bank or Executive’s breach of his representations and warranties contained herein. | |

| (b) |
Unless terminated pursuant to a Change in Control (as defined in Section 4(d)), Executive agrees that during any Restricted Period, that he will not solicit any employee of the Bank, the Company, or any of their affiliates to leave their employment for any reason or otherwise interfere with any employment relationships of the Company, the Bank, or their affiliates.

| (d) General. |
Executive acknowledges and agrees that the payments for services hereunder, and his rights and benefits under this Agreement are contingent upon his compliance with the provisions of this Section 6.

Executive and the Bank acknowledge and agree that the provisions of this Section 6 are not made in connection with any former services for the Bank provided by Executive, but rather are intended to protect the Bank’s interests. Executive hereby acknowledges that the restrictions set forth in this Section 6 are reasonable and that they do not, and will not, unduly impair his ability to earn a living. | |

Executive agrees to fully cooperate with the Bank should the Bank determine to challenge, for whatever reason, any determination by the Internal Revenue Service that Severance Benefits paid hereunder constitute “excess parachute payments” as defined by Section 280G of the Code. | ||
