Langmead’s Salary may be further increased from time to time, at the discretion of the Board. Langmead may also be entitled to certain incentive bonus payments as determined by Board approved incentive plans.

If the Policy is obtained, Langmead shall provide the Bank with a copy of the Policy, and the Bank will pay, during the Term of this Agreement, the premiums for the Policy upon submission by Langmead to the Bank of the invoices therefor. In the event Langmead is rated and the premium exceeds the standard rate for a Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollar ($750,000.00) policy, the Policy amount shall be lowered to the maximum amount that can be purchased at the standard rate for a Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollar ($750,000.00) policy. For example, if Langmead is rated and the standard rate for a Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollar ($750,000.00) policy would acquire a Five Hundred Thousand Dollar ($500,000.00) policy, the Bank would only be required to pay the premium for a Five Hundred Thousand Dollar ($500,000.00) policy. If a Policy is obtained and it is cancelled or terminated, Langmead shall immediately notify the Bank of such cancellation or termination.

5.8.2 The Bank may, at its cost, obtain and maintain “key-man” life insurance and/or Bank-owned life insurance on Langmead in such amount as determined by the Board from time to time. Langmead agrees to cooperate fully and to take all actions reasonably required by the Bank in connection with such insurance.

6.1 Continued Approval by Bank Regulatory Agencies. This Agreement and all of its terms and conditions, and the continued operation and effect of this Agreement and the Bank’s continuing obligations hereunder, shall at all times be subject to the continuing approval of any and all Bank Regulatory Agencies whose approval is a necessary prerequisite to the continued operation of the Bank. Should any term or condition of this Agreement, upon review by any Bank Regulatory Agency, be found to violate or not be in compliance with any then-applicable statute or any rule, regulation, order or understanding promulgated by any Bank Regulatory Agency, or should any term or condition required to be included herein by any such Bank Regulatory Agency be absent, this

Agreement may be rescinded and terminated by the Bank if the parties hereto cannot in good faith agree upon such additions, deletions or modifications as may be deemed necessary or appropriate to bring this Agreement into compliance.

(g) the determination by the Board, in the exercise of its reasonable judgment and in good faith, that Langmead’s job performance is substantially unsatisfactory and that he has failed to cure such performance within a reasonable period (but in no event more than thirty (30) days) after written notice specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the unsatisfactory performance; or

(h) Langmead’s commission of unethical business practices, acts of moral turpitude, financial impropriety, fraud or dishonesty in any material matter which the Board in good faith determines could adversely affect the reputation, standing or financial prospects of the Bank or its Affiliates.

7.2 Termination by the Bank for Cause. After the occurrence of any of the conditions specified in Section 7.1, the Bank shall have the right to terminate the Term for Cause immediately on written notice to Langmead.

7.3 Termination by the Bank without Cause. The Bank shall have the right to terminate the Term at any time on written notice without Cause, for any or no reason, such termination to be effective on the date on which the Bank gives such notice to Langmead or such later date as may be specified in such notice.

7.4 Termination for Death or Disability. The Term shall automatically terminate upon the death of Langmead or upon the Board’s determination that Langmead is suffering from a Disability.

7.5 Termination by Langmead. Langmead shall have the right to terminate the Term at any time, such termination to be effective on the date ninety (90) days after the date on which Langmead gives such notice to the Bank unless Langmead and the Bank agree in writing to a later date on which such termination is to be effective.

These payments shall be made promptly upon termination and within the period of time mandated by law.

7.7 Severance if Termination by the Bank without Cause. Provided that Langmead signs and delivers to the Bank no later than twenty-one (21) days after the Termination Date a General Release and Waiver in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A, and except as set forth below, if the Term is terminated by the Bank during the Term without Cause, the Bank shall, for a period of one (1) year following the Termination Date, (i) continue to pay Langmead, in the manner set forth below, Langmead’s Salary at the rate being paid as of the Termination Date, and (ii) if Langmead timely elects to continue his health insurance benefits under COBRA, pay to the insurer Langmead’s premiums for health insurance benefits continuation (for so long as Langmead remains qualified for such continuation under COBRA); provided, however, that Langmead shall not be entitled to any such payments if he is otherwise entitled to payments pursuant to Section 9.4 in relation to a Change in Control. Any payments due Langmead pursuant to this Section 7.7 shall be paid to Langmead in installments on the same schedule as Langmead was paid immediately prior to the Termination Date, each installment to be the same amount Langmead would have been paid under this Agreement if he had not been terminated. In the event Langmead breaches any provision of Article 8 of this Agreement, Langmead’s entitlement to any payments payable pursuant to this Section 7.7, if and to the extent not yet paid, shall thereupon immediately cease and terminate as of the date of such breach, with Langmead having the obligation to repay to the Bank any payments that were paid to him and any payments for health insurance benefits continuation pursuant to this Section 7.7 with respect to the period after such breach occurred and before such breach became known to the Bank. Furthermore, if termination was initially not for Cause but the Bank thereafter determines in good faith that, during the Term, Langmead had engaged in conduct that would have constituted Cause, Langmead’s entitlement to any payments pursuant to this Section 7.7 shall terminate retroactively to the Termination Date, with Langmead having the obligation to repay to the Bank all payments that were paid to him and any payments for health insurance benefits continuation pursuant to this Section 7.7, and, upon the return of all such payments, said General Release and Waiver shall be deemed rescinded and of no force or effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.7, any payment pursuant to this Section shall be subject to (i) any delay in payment required by Section 10.3 hereof and (ii) any reduction required pursuant to Section 10.2 hereof.

“Branch”) that is (or is proposed to be) located within a thirty-five (35) mile radius of the Bank’s headquarters or any Branch of the Bank Entities. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, this Section 8.5 does not restrict Langmead’s right to (i) own securities of any Entity that files periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; provided that his total ownership constitutes less than two percent (2%) of the outstanding securities of such company.

Langmead hereby covenants and agrees that during the Restricted Period, he will not, directly or indirectly, for himself or any other Person (whether as a proprietor, owner, agent, officer, director, shareholder, organizer, partner, principal, member, manager, employee, contractor, consultant or any other capacity):

(a) induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier, officer, director, employee, contractor, consultant, agent or representative of, or any other Person that has a business relationship with any Bank Entity, to discontinue, terminate or reduce the extent of its, his or her relationship with any Bank Entity or to take any action that would disrupt or otherwise be disadvantageous to any such relationship;

In applying this Section 8.6:

(i) the term “customer” shall be deemed to include, at any time, any Person to which any of the Bank Entities had, during the six (6) month period immediately prior to such time, (A) sold any products or provided any services or (B) submitted, or been in the process of submitting or negotiating, a proposal for the sale of any product or the provision of any services;

(iv) If during the Restricted Period any employee of any of the Bank Entities accepts employment with or is otherwise retained by any Competitive Business of which Langmead is an owner, director, officer, manager, member, employee, partner or employee, or to which Langmead provides material services, it shall be presumed that such employee was hired in violation of the restriction set forth in clause (c) of this Section 8.6, with such presumption to be overcome only upon Langmead’s showing by a preponderance of the evidence that he was not directly or indirectly involved in the hiring, soliciting or encouraging such employee to leave employment with the Bank Entities.

8.7 Injunction. In the event of any breach or threatened or attempted breach of any provision of this Article 8 by Langmead, the Bank shall, in addition to and not to the exclusion of any other rights and remedies at law or in equity, be entitled to seek and receive from any court of competent jurisdiction (i) full temporary and permanent injunctive relief enjoining and restraining Langmead and each and every other Person concerned therein from the continuation of such violative acts and (ii) a decree for specific performance of the applicable provisions of this Agreement, without being required to furnish any bond or other security.

8.8 Reasonableness.

8.8.1 Langmead has carefully read and considered the provisions of this Article 8 and, having done so, agrees that the restrictions and agreements set forth in this Article 8 are fair and reasonable and are reasonably required for the protection of the interests of the Bank Entities and their respective businesses, shareholders, directors, officers and employees. Langmead further agrees that the restrictions set forth in this Agreement will not impair or unreasonably restrain his ability to earn a livelihood.

8.8.2 If any court of competent jurisdiction should determine that the duration, geographical area or scope of any provision or restriction set forth in this Article 8 exceeds the maximum duration, geographic area or scope that is reasonable and enforceable under applicable law, the parties agree that said provision shall automatically be modified and shall be deemed to extend only over the maximum duration, geographical area and/or scope as to which such provision or restriction said court determines to be valid and enforceable under applicable law, which determination the parties direct the court to make, and the parties agree to be bound by such modified provision or restriction.

9. Change in Control.

9.1 Definition. “Change in Control” means and shall be deemed to have occurred if:

(a) there shall be consummated (i) any consolidation, merger, share exchange, or similar transaction relating to Bancorp, or pursuant to which shares of Bancorp’s capital stock are converted into cash, securities of another Entity and/or other property, other than a transaction in which the holders of Bancorp’s voting stock immediately before such transaction shall, upon consummation of such transaction, own at least fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the surviving Entity, or (ii) any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Bancorp, other than a transfer of assets to a related Person which is not treated as a change in control event under §1.409A-3(i)(5)(vii)(B) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations;

(b) any person, entity or group (each within the meaning of Sections 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) shall become the beneficial owner (within the meaning of Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of Bancorp representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of all outstanding securities of Bancorp entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of Bancorp (including, without limitation, any securities of Bancorp that any such Person has the right to acquire pursuant to any agreement, or upon exercise of conversion rights, warrants or options, or otherwise, which shall be deemed beneficially owned by such Person); or

(c) over a twelve (12) month period, a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of Bancorp are replaced by directors whose appointment or election was not endorsed by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of Bancorp in office prior to such appointment or election.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the event purportedly constituting a Change in Control under Section 9.1(a), Section 9.1(b), or Section 9.1(c) does not also constitute a “change in ownership” of Bancorp, a “change in effective control” of Bancorp, or a “change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets” of Bancorp within the meaning of Section 409A, then such event shall not constitute a “Change in Control” hereunder.

9.2 Change in Control Termination. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change in Control Termination” means that while this Agreement is in effect:

(a) Langmead’s employment with the Bank is terminated without Cause (i) within one hundred twenty (120) days immediately prior to and in conjunction with a Change in Control or (ii) within twelve (12) months following consummation of a Change in Control; or

(b) Within twelve (12) months following consummation of a Change in Control, Langmead’s title, duties and or position have been materially reduced such that Langmead is not in a comparable position (with materially comparable compensation, benefits and responsibilities and is located within twenty-five (25) miles of Langmead’s primary worksite) to the position he held immediately prior to the Change in Control, and within thirty

(30) days after notification of such reduction he notifies the Bank that he is terminating his employment due to such change in his employment unless such change is cured within thirty (30) days of such notice by providing him with a comparable position (including materially comparable compensation and benefits and is located within twenty-five (25) miles of Langmead’s primary worksite). If Langmead’s employment is terminated under this Section, his last day of employment shall be mutually agreed to by Langmead and the Bank, but shall be not more than sixty (60) days after such notice is given by Langmead.

9.3 Window Period Resignation After Change in Control. If at the expiration of the twelve (12) month period following consummation of a Change in Control (the “Action Period”), Langmead’s employment by the Bank has not been terminated, Langmead may, by giving written notice to the Bank within the thirty (30) day period immediately following the last day of the Action Period, elect to terminate the Term, in which event his last day of employment will be as mutually agreed to by the Bank and Langmead but which shall be not more than sixty (60) days after such notice is given by Langmead.

9.4 Change in Control Payment. If there is a Change in Control Termination pursuant to Section 9.2 or Langmead resigns after the Action Period pursuant to Section 9.3, Langmead shall be paid a lump-sum cash payment (the “Change Payment”) equal to 2.99 times Langmead’s Salary at the highest rate in effect during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding his Termination Date, such Change Payment to be made to Langmead within forty-five (45) days after the later of (i) his Termination Date or (ii) the date of the Change in Control, the exact date of payment to be determined in the sole discretion of the Bank; provided, however, that the Bank shall be relieved of its obligation to pay the Change Payment if Langmead fails to sign and deliver to the Bank no later than twenty-one (21) days after the Termination Date a General Release and Waiver in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.4, any payment pursuant to this Section shall be subject to (i) any delay in payment required by Section 10.3 hereof and (ii) any reduction required pursuant to Section 10.2 hereof, as applicable.

10. Compliance with Certain Restrictions.

10.1 Certain Defined Terms. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms are defined as follows:

(a) “Additional 280G Payments” means any distributions in the nature of compensation by any Bank Entity to or for the benefit of Langmead (including, but not limited to, the value of acceleration in vesting in restricted stock, options or any other stock-based compensation), whether or not paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to this Agreement, which is required to be taken into consideration in applying Section 280G(b)(2)(A) of the Code;

(b) “Applicable Severance” means Langmead’s severance from employment by reason of involuntary termination by the Bank or in connection with any bankruptcy, liquidation or receivership of the Bank or any other entity that is treated as the same employer under EESA, in each case as determined under the regulations implementing Section 111(b) of EESA;

(c) Authorities Period” means the period under which the authorities of Section 101 of EESA are in effect, as determined pursuant to Section 120 thereof;

(d) “Determining Firm” means a reputable law or accounting firm selected by the Bank to make a determination pursuant to this Article 10;

(e) “EESA” means the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, Public Law 110-343, as implemented by any guidance or regulations thereunder;

(f) “Incentive Compensation” means all bonus and other incentive-based compensation, as those terms are applied under EESA;

(g) “Parachute Payment” is defined as set forth in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code, with amounts payable during the Authorities Period upon Applicable Severance being specifically included in applying such provision;

(h) “Total Change in Control Payments” means the total amount of the Change Payment together with all Additional 280G Payments that are required to be paid because of a Change in Control; and

(i) “Total Severance Payments” means the total amount of payments, including Additional 280G Payments, that are required to be paid to Langmead but that would not have been payable to him if no Applicable Severance had occurred.

10.2 Compliance with Section 280G.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if any amount becomes payable to Langmead because of an Applicable Severance and (ii) the Determining Firm determines that any portion of the Total Severance Payments would otherwise constitute a Parachute Payment, the amount payable to Langmead shall automatically be reduced by the smallest amount necessary so that no portion of the Total Severance Payments will be a Parachute Payment. If Total Severance Payments are to be paid in other than a lump sum, such reduction shall be applied in inverse order to the time at which the payments are scheduled to be made (e.g., the last scheduled payment will be the first such payment to be reduced). If, despite the foregoing sentence, a payment shall be made to Langmead that would constitute a Parachute Payment, Langmead shall have no right to retain such payment, and, immediately upon being informed of the impropriety of such payment, Langmead shall return such payment to the Bank or other Bank Entity that was the payer thereof, together with interest at the applicable federal rate determined pursuant to Section 1274(d) of the Code.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, other than Section 10.2(a) above, if the Determining Firm determines that any portion of the Total Change in Control Payments would otherwise constitute a Parachute Payment, the amount payable to Langmead shall automatically be reduced by the smallest amount necessary so that no portion of the Total Change in Control Payments will be a Parachute Payment. If Total Change in Control Payments are to be paid in other than a lump sum, such reduction shall be applied in inverse order to the time at which the payments are scheduled to be made (e.g., the last scheduled payment will be the first such payment to be reduced). If, despite the foregoing sentence, a payment shall be made to Langmead that would constitute a Parachute Payment, Langmead shall have no right to retain such payment and, immediately upon being informed of the impropriety of such payment, Langmead shall return such payment to the Bank or other Bank Entity that was the payer thereof, together with interest at the applicable federal rate determined pursuant to Section 1274(d) of the Code.

10.3 Compliance with Section 409A.

(a) It is the intention of the parties hereto that this Agreement and the payments provided for hereunder shall not be subject to, or shall be in accordance with, Section 409A, and thus avoid the imposition of any tax and interest on Langmead pursuant to Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code, and this Agreement shall be interpreted and construed consistent with this intent. Langmead acknowledges and agrees that he shall be solely responsible for the payment of any tax or penalty which may be imposed or to which he may become subject as a result of the payment of any amounts under this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if Langmead is a “specified employee” at the time of his “separation from service”, any payment of “nonqualified deferred compensation” (in each case as determined pursuant to Section 409A) that is otherwise to be paid to Langmead within six (6) months following his separation from service, then to the extent that such payment would otherwise be subject to interest and additional tax under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code, such payment shall be delayed and shall be paid on the first business day of the seventh calendar month following Langmead’s separation from service, or, if earlier, upon Langmead’s death. Any deferral of payments pursuant to the foregoing sentence shall have no effect on any payments that are scheduled to be paid more than six (6) months after the date of separation from service.

(c) The parties hereto agree that they shall take such actions as may be necessary and permissible under applicable law, regulation and guidance to amend or revise this Agreement in order to ensure that Section 409A(a)(1)(B) does not impose additional tax and interest on payments made pursuant to this Agreement.

10.4 Clawback if Material Inaccuracy. If any Incentive Compensation that is paid to Langmead by the Bank or any other Bank Entity while the U.S. Treasury holds any equity securities in Bancorp is based on any materially inaccurate financial statement or other materially inaccurate performance metric criteria, as those terms are applied under EESA, Langmead shall be required to disgorge and pay over to the Bank or such other Bank Entity all such Incentive Compensation, together with interest at the applicable federal rate determined pursuant to Section 1274(d) of the Code.

11. Assignability. Langmead shall have no right to assign this Agreement or any of his rights or obligations hereunder to another party or parties. The Bank may assign this Agreement to any of its Affiliates or to any Person that acquires a substantial portion of the operating assets of the Bank. Upon any such assignment by the Bank, references in this Agreement to the Bank shall automatically be deemed to refer to such assignee instead of, or in addition to, the Bank, as appropriate in the context.

12. Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland applicable to contracts executed and to be performed therein, without giving effect to the choice of law rules thereof. Any action to enforce any provision of this Agreement may be brought only in a court of the State of Maryland or in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland. Accordingly, each party (a) agrees to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts and to accept service of process at its address for notices and in the manner provided in Section 13 for the giving of notices in any such action or proceeding brought in any such court and (b) irrevocably waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient or inappropriate forum.

13. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications required to be given or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be conclusively deemed to have been given as follows: (a) when hand delivered to the other party; (b) when received by facsimile at the facsimile number set forth below, provided, however, that any notice given by facsimile shall not be effective unless either (i) a duplicate copy of such facsimile notice is promptly given by depositing the same in a United States post office first-class postage prepaid and addressed to the applicable party as set forth below or (ii) the receiving party delivers a written confirmation of receipt for such notice either by facsimile or by any other method permitted under this Section; or (c) when deposited in a United States post office with first-class certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid and addressed to the applicable party as set forth below; or (d) when deposited with a national overnight delivery service reasonably approved by the parties (Federal Express and DHL WorldWide Express being deemed approved by the parties), postage prepaid, addressed to the applicable party as set forth below with next-business-day delivery guaranteed; provided that the sending party receives a confirmation of delivery from the delivery service provider. Any notice given by facsimile shall be deemed received on the date on which notice is received except that if such notice is received after 5:00 p.m. (recipient’s time) or on a non-business day, notice shall be deemed given the next business day). Any notice sent by Untied States mail shall be deemed given three (3) business days after the same has been deposited in the United States mail. Any notice given by national overnight delivery service shall be deemed given on the first business day following deposit with such delivery service. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or day that is a legal holiday in Xxxxxxxxxx County, Maryland. The address of a party set forth below may be changed by that party by written notice to the other from time to time pursuant to this Article.
