NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and subject to the conditions herein set forth, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, do undertake, promise, covenant and agree with each other as follows:

ARTICLE 1

SALE AND PURCHASE OF CERTAIN ASSETS

AND ASSUMPTION AND TRANSFER OF CERTAIN LIABILITIES

1.1 Sale of Assets. On the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, at the Closing (as defined in Section 1.6) Buyer shall purchase and acquire from Seller and Seller shall sell, convey, assign, transfer and deliver to Buyer all of the right, title, and interest of Seller in and to the following assets associated with the Branch, free and clear of all liens, security interests, pledges, encumbrances, adverse claims and demands of every kind, character and description whatsoever (other than liens for taxes not yet due, referred to herein as “Permitted Liens”), except as otherwise provided in this Agreement (all of which are collectively referred to herein as the “Assets”):

A. All of Seller’s right, title and interest, including any participation interest, in the loans, including overdrafts (not to exceed $1,000 in any one account and being less than 5 business days outstanding) associated with deposit accounts being assumed pursuant to Section 1.3, or other extensions of credit listed on Schedule 1.1(A) (as such Schedule may be updated in accordance with Section 1.7), as of the Effective Time (collectively, the “Loans”);

B. All rights of Seller under safe deposit contracts and leases set forth on Schedule 1.1(B) (as such Schedule may be updated in accordance with Section 1.7), for the safe deposit boxes located at the Branch as of the Effective Time (the “Safe Deposit Contracts”);

C. All books, records (including computer records and core system information), files and documentation relating to the Assets and the Liabilities (as defined in Section 1.3), in the form and manner kept by Seller, whether or not in electronic format (the “Records”), including, but not limited to:

(i) Signature cards, orders and contracts between Seller and its depositors, and records of similar character;

(ii) Loan and collateral records and credit files; and

(iii) The Safe Deposit Contracts; and

D. All assets associated with the provision of courier services to customers of the Branch set forth on Schedule 1.1(D) (collectively, the “Courier Assets”).

Buyer shall succeed to all rights, title, benefits and interests of Seller in and to the Assets as of the Effective Time, and shall be entitled to receive all benefits therefrom as if Buyer had itself acquired such assets. To the extent that any Safe Deposit Contract may not be assigned without the consent of any person which has not been obtained as of Closing, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign the same if an attempted assignment would constitute a default thereof. If any consent applicable to the Safe Deposit Contract is not obtained prior to the Closing, or if any attempted assignment would be ineffective so that Buyer would not in effect acquire the benefit of such rights, then Buyer and Seller shall enter into a commercially reasonable arrangement for Seller to act after the Closing as Buyer’s agent in order to preserve and obtain for Buyer the benefits thereunder, and such commercially reasonable arrangement shall be designed to transfer the economic costs of such benefits to Buyer.

1.2 Assets to be Retained by Seller. Seller shall retain all assets not expressly purchased by Buyer pursuant to Section 1.1 (collectively, the “Excluded Assets”), including, but not limited to:

A. all real property, whether owned in fee simple or leased, subleased or rented by Seller where the Branch is located, and all improvements to such property purchased, installed or constructed by or on behalf of Seller and used in connection with the operation or maintenance of the Branch, including, without limitation, buildings, structures, parking facilities and drive-in teller facilities (the “Real Property”);

B. all furniture, fixture, equipment and other tangible personal property owned or leased by Seller relating to the Branch, other than the Courier Assets;

C. all cash on hand at the Branch as of the close of business on the Closing Date, including vault cash, automated teller machine (“ATM”) cash, xxxxx cash, tellers’ cash and cash items in the process of collection (the “Cash on Hand”);

D. all investment securities owned by Seller relating to the Branch;

E. all other real estate owned by Seller or carried as in substance foreclosures that are associated with the Branch;

- 2 -

F. all loans or participations in loans that are not Loans, including any loans previously charged-off by Seller;

G. allowance for loan losses on all loans (including the Loans); and

H. all customer and merchant credit card accounts.

1.3 Assumption of Liabilities of Seller. At the Closing, subject to the conditions contained herein, Seller shall transfer and assign to Buyer, and Buyer shall assume, pay for, perform and discharge from and after the Effective Time, as and when due and payable, the following liabilities of Seller associated with the Branch and reflected on the books and records of Seller (all of which are collectively referred to herein as the “Liabilities”):

A. All deposits associated with the Branch and listed on Schedule 1.3A) (as such Schedule may be updated in accordance with Section 1.7) as of the Effective Time (the “Deposits”), together with all duties and obligations of Seller associated therewith, including, but not limited to, the agreements with customers associated with such deposits (the “Deposit Agreements”; the holders of record of the Deposits are hereinafter referred to as the “Depositors”);

B. All liabilities, duties and obligations of Seller arising or to be performed after the Effective Time under the Safe Deposit Contracts set forth on Schedule 1.1(B) (as such Schedule may be updated in accordance with Section 1.7);

C. All duties and obligations of Seller arising or to be performed after the Effective Time under the loan documents related to the Loans, including, without limitation, any obligations to make advances or disbursements of principal with respect to and in accordance with the terms of any Loan; and

D. If Xxxxxxx Xxxx becomes an Assumed Employee, then all liabilities, duties and obligations of Seller arising or to be performed after the Effective Time with respect to the benefit accrued as of the Effective Time under the nonqualified deferred compensation agreement (the “SERP”) identified on Schedule 1.3(D).

Buyer shall succeed to and assume all obligations and liabilities of Seller to the extent included in the Liabilities as of the Effective Time, and shall be liable from then and thereafter to pay, discharge and perform all of the Liabilities as if Buyer had itself incurred such obligations and liabilities, and Buyer shall succeed to all rights, offsets and defenses of Seller in connection therewith. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “deposit” shall have the meaning of such term as defined in section 3(l) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. § 1813(l).

1.4 Liabilities to be Retained by Seller. Seller shall retain all liabilities or obligations not expressly assumed by Buyer pursuant to Section 1.3 (all of which are collectively referred to herein as the “Retained Liabilities”), including, but not limited to:

A. All liabilities or obligations relating to the Excluded Assets, including without limitation under the lease agreement listed on Schedule 1.4A) (the “Richmond Branch Lease”);

1.5 Purchase Price and Cash Payment.

A. At Closing, a cash payment shall be made by Seller to Buyer, or by Buyer to Seller, as applicable, in an amount (the “Payment Amount”) equal to the difference between (i) the sum of (a) the net book value of the Deposits shown on the books and records of Seller as of the Closing Date and (b) the net book value of the accrued interest payable on the Deposits as of the Closing Date, less (c) a premium (the “Premium”) equal to 3.92% multiplied by such net book value of the Deposits and accrued interest payable thereon, excluding any certificate of deposit balances exceeding $5 million through the Effective Time and excluding accounts for which collateral has been or may be required, and (ii) the sum of (a) an amount equal to the principal balance of the Loans shown on the books and records of Seller as of the Closing Date (without reference to loss reserves, deferred costs or revenues, if any), (b) the net book value of the accrued interest receivable with respect to the Loans as of the Closing Date, and (c) the net book value of the Courier Assets as of the Closing Date, less (d) a discount equal to 3.77% multiplied by the principal balance of the Loans and accrued interest receivable as of the Closing Date and, less (e) if Xxxxxxx Xxxx becomes an Assumed Employee, $148,877, representing the accrued benefits due to Xxxxxxx Xxxx under the SERP as of the Closing Date. If the Payment Amount is an amount less than zero, then Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to such negative Payment Amount. If the Payment Amount is greater than zero, then Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to such positive Payment Amount.

B. Seller shall provide to Buyer, within five business days prior to the Closing Date, a preliminary schedule of Closing settlement amounts substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A showing in reasonable detail the calculation of the payments to be made at Closing. For the purposes of this Agreement, “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which commercial banks in Richmond, Virginia, are authorized or required to close.

C. The Payment Amount due at Closing from Seller to Buyer or from Buyer to Seller, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 1.5 shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 1.8.

- 4 -

1.6 The Closing, the Closing Date and the Effective Time. The sale and purchase of the Assets and the assumption of the Liabilities pursuant to this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall occur on the later of (a) the fifth business day following receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, the expiration of any mandatory waiting periods and the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions precedent set forth in Articles 6 and 7, or (b) July 29, 2011. The Closing shall be held at 10:00 a.m. local time at the offices of Hunton & Xxxxxxxx LLP, 000 Xxxx Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxx-Xxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000, unless another place is mutually agreed upon by Buyer and Seller. The date of the Closing is referred to herein as the “Closing Date.” The effective time (the “Effective Time”) shall be 5:00 p.m., local time, on the Closing Date or such other time as Buyer and Seller shall mutually agree, notwithstanding the actual time that the Closing occurs. Buyer and Seller specifically agree that time is of the essence for all purposes with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

1.7 Preliminary and Final Lists of Deposits, Safe Deposit Contracts and Loans. On or before the 10^th day of each month, beginning in July, 2011 and continuing until the Closing Date, Seller shall furnish to Buyer an updated list (each a “Preliminary List”) of the Deposits, Safe Deposit Contracts and Loans as of the last day of the preceding month, together with a trial balance for the Branch as of the end of such month, certified by the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer of Seller (acting in his or her official capacity, and not individually), to be true and correct as of such date, and the parties will calculate all amounts payable on the Closing Date pursuant to Section 1.5 in accordance with the amounts reflected on the Preliminary List most recently furnished by Seller to Buyer. Within five business days following the Closing Date, Seller shall furnish Buyer with an updated list (the “Final List”) of the Deposits, Safe Deposit Contracts and Loans as of the Effective Time, certified by the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer of Seller (acting in his or her official capacity, and not individually) to be true and correct as of such date. In addition, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a list of all Loans purchased, individually identified by account number and date of origination, which list shall be appended to the Xxxx of Sale, and a list of all Deposits and Safe Deposit Contracts assumed, which list shall be appended to the Assignment and Assumption Agreement. Subject to rights of indemnification pursuant to Article 8, the Final List shall become final and binding on Buyer and Seller ten business days after its delivery to Buyer, unless Buyer gives written notice to Seller of its disagreement with respect to any item included in or excluded from such Final List. Seller and Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any such disagreement during the five business day period after receipt by Seller of any such notice. If the disagreement is not resolved within such five business day period, the Chief Executive Officer of Buyer and the Chief Executive Officer of Seller shall meet or confer to resolve such dispute and cause the Final List to be modified, if appropriate, whereupon the Final List shall become final and binding. When the Final List becomes final and binding, an appropriate settlement payment from Seller to Buyer or from Buyer to Seller, as applicable, will be made, adjusting the Payment Amount, together with accrued interest on the amount of such adjustment calculated at the federal funds rate in effect on the Closing Date for the number of days elapsed between the Closing Date and the date of such settlement payment.

1.8 Adjustments. All amounts prepaid relating to Safe Deposit Contracts or related agreements shall be prorated through the Effective Time, and all deposits paid thereon, if any, shall be paid to Buyer. Without limiting any other rights Buyer may have under this Agreement, if either (i) any Material Adverse Change (as defined in Section 2.11) exists with respect to any

- 5 -

Loan on the Closing Date or (ii) any change in the credit quality of any Loan resulting in one or more risk rating downgrades (consistent with Buyer’s past practices) has occurred on or before the Closing Date, then Buyer may, at its option, declare any affected Loan to be an Excluded Asset or, in consultation with Seller, adjust the Payment Amount in a mutually agreeable manner to take into account the fair impact of such Material Adverse Change or change in credit quality.

Liabilities have been or will be timely filed with the appropriate governmental body in all jurisdictions in which such Tax Returns are required to be filed.

EMPLOYEE MATTERS

The parties shall follow the following procedure in dealing with employees of the Branch regarding employment after the Closing:

10.2 Offer of Employment. Buyer shall consider for employment those Branch employees listed on Schedule 10.2 (the “Offer Employees”) in substantially their then current positions with substantially the same remuneration and benefits generally equivalent to current levels; provided, however, that nothing herein shall (i) obligate Buyer to employ any Offer Employee or consider any other Branch employee for employment, (ii) require Buyer to provide any Assumed Employee (as defined below) the same remuneration or benefit levels of such Assumed Employee’s remuneration or benefits immediately prior to the Closing Date, or (iii) prohibit Buyer from terminating any Assumed Employee for any reason.

No later than 15 days prior to the Closing Date, Buyer will offer employment to the Offer Employees identified in the Offer

- 31 -

Notice. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the period of service with Seller of each Offer Employee who accepts employment with Buyer (each an “Assumed Employee”) shall be recognized only for vesting and eligibility purposes under Buyer’s benefit plans; provided, that the terms of the SERP (as it may be amended from time to time by Buyer without reducing the benefit accrued by Xxxxxxx Xxxx as of the Effective Time and without changing the time or form of payment) will apply to Xxxxxxx Xxxx if he becomes an Assumed Employee. Buyer shall permit each Assumed Employee to participate in the same health, vacation and other benefits as Buyer provides to its other employees, provided that Buyer shall not be obligated to make any contribution to any plan or program on behalf of any of such Branch employees, with respect to any period prior to the Closing. Pre-existing condition restrictions of Buyer’s health plan shall be waived with regard to the Assumed Employees; provided, however, that to the extent a pre-existing exclusion applied to such Assumed Employee under Seller’s health plan, such pre-existing condition exclusion shall continue to apply under Buyer’s health plan. All sick leave and disability leave accrued and not used by an Assumed Employee prior to the Closing Date shall be maintained by Buyer after the Closing Date. For purposes of determining each Assumed Employee’s vacation benefit with Buyer for the year in which the Effective Time occurs under Buyer’s vacation program, any vacation taken by an Assumed Employee while employed with Seller preceding the Closing Date for the year in which the Effective Time occurs will be deducted from the total buyer vacation benefit for which such Assumed Employee is eligible for such year under Buyer’s vacation program. After the Closing Date, Assumed Employees will be employed on an at-will basis by Buyer; provided, however, that in no way shall Buyer be liable for any claims that any Branch employee may have against Seller and Buyer may request a release from each Branch employee with respect thereto.

10.3 Non-Assumed Employee; Costs of Termination. Seller shall be solely responsible for the management, reassignment, relocation or termination of any Branch employees that are not Assumed Employees, and Seller shall pay any and all costs (including, without limitation, severance pay and accrued vacation pay) associated with termination of any Branch employee, other than the Assumed Employees, who is terminated by Seller.

Seller shall retain all liabilities and obligations (including, without limitation, the liability and obligation for all wages, salary, vacation pay and unemployment, medical, dental, vision, health, disability and retirement benefits), for any claims incurred by any Branch employee prior to the Effective Time. Buyer shall not at any time assume any liability for the benefits of any Branch employee under any of Seller’s benefit plans except under the SERP if Xxxxxxx Xxxx becomes an Assumed Employee. Seller shall be responsible for providing any Branch employee whose “qualifying event,” within the meaning of section 4980B(f)(3) of the Code, occurs on or prior to the Effective Time (and such Branch Employee’s “qualified beneficiaries” within the meaning of section 4980B(g)(1) of the Code) with the continuation of group health coverage required by section 4980B(f) of the Code under the terms of the health plan maintained by Seller.

- 32 -

10.6 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Article 10 is intended, nor shall it be construed, to confer any rights or benefits upon any person other than Buyer and Seller, including any rights to be employed or respecting the terms and duration of employment.

10.7 Non-Solicitation of Employees. From the date of this Agreement until the Closing Date, Seller shall not (a) terminate any Offer Employee, except for cause, or (b) relocate, or agree to relocate, any Offer Employee to another branch or office of Seller or any affiliate of Seller unless Buyer has notified Seller that such Offer Employee has declined or intends to decline Buyer’s offer of employment. From and after the Effective Time, and for a period of two years after the Closing Date, Seller and its respective successors and assigns shall not directly or indirectly hire any Assumed Employee, without the prior consent of Buyer, unless (i) such Assumed Employee responds to a general advertisement for employment by Seller or any affiliate of Seller, or (ii) such Assumed Employee’s employment was terminated by Buyer.

F. By Buyer if any Material Adverse Change with respect to the Assets or Liabilities has occurred since March 31, 2011 which has not been cured or which cannot be cured within 10 business days after the earlier of Seller obtaining knowledge thereof or Buyer delivering written notice to Seller that a Material Adverse Change has occurred; or

G.

Nothing in this Agreement shall act to relieve or discharge the obligation or liability of any third party to any party to this Agreement, nor shall any provision give any third party any right of subrogation or action over or against any party to this Agreement.

12.6 Governing Law. This Agreement will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia without giving effect to any choice or

- 35 -

conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the Commonwealth of Virginia or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Commonwealth of Virginia.

12.7 Attorneys’ Fees and Costs Upon Enforcement. In the event attorneys’ fees or other costs are incurred to secure performance of any of the obligations herein provided for, or to establish damages for the breach thereof, or to obtain any other appropriate relief, whether by way of prosecution or defense, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred therein.

12.8 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future laws, then (a) such provision shall be fully severable and this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision were not a part hereof; (b) the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance from this Agreement; and (c) there shall be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and still be legal, valid and enforceable.

12.9 Assignability. No party to this Agreement shall assign this Agreement, by operation of law or otherwise, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the other party. Any assignment made or attempted in violation of this Section 12.9 shall be void and of no effect.

12.10 Rules of Construction. All sections referred to herein are sections of this Agreement and all exhibits and schedules referred to herein are exhibits and schedules, respectively, attached to this Agreement. Descriptive headings as to the contents of particular sections are for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning, construction or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. The exhibits and schedules to this Agreement (and any appendices thereto) referred to in this Agreement and attached hereto are and shall be incorporated herein and made a part hereof for all purposes as though set forth herein verbatim. Each use herein of the masculine, neuter or feminine gender shall be deemed to include the other genders.

12.12 Waiver. Any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement may be waived at any time by the party that is entitled to the benefit thereof. No party to this Agreement shall by any act (except by a written instrument signed by the party to be charged) be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof. Neither failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising any right, power or

- 36 -

privilege hereunder by any party hereto shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver of any party of any right or remedy on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy that such party would otherwise have on any future occasion or to any right or remedy that any other party may have hereunder.

12.13 Specific Performance. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that the other parties would be irreparably damaged and would not have an adequate remedy at law for money damages in the event that any of the covenants contained in this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its terms or otherwise were materially breached. Each of the parties hereto therefore agrees that, without the necessity of proving actual damages or posting bond or other security, the other party shall be entitled to temporary and/or permanent injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of such performance and to specific enforcement of such covenants in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled, at law or in equity.

12.14 Public Disclosure. Seller and Buyer will consult with each other regarding the content of any press release or other public disclosure concerning this transaction and obtain the prior written approval of the other party hereto; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything else contained in this Section 12.14, Seller and Buyer shall be permitted to make any public disclosure or governmental filings as its counsel may deem necessary to maintain compliance with or to prevent violations of applicable federal or state laws or regulations.

12.15 Confidential Information. Except as may be required by applicable securities laws or as may be necessary to obtain the regulatory approvals as described in Section 6.3, Seller and Buyer will treat as confidential any information related to the transactions described herein obtained from the other party. Seller and Buyer will use such information, and not disclose it to others, except their employees, advisors, directors and agents, expressly for the purposes of evaluating the potential of consummating the transactions proposed herein. The term “information” does not include any information that (a) at the time of disclosure or thereafter is generally available to and known by the public, (b) was available on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Seller or Buyer or (c) was independently acquired or developed without violating any laws or obligations under this Agreement. In the event of termination of this Agreement, each party shall redeliver all documents, work papers and other material of the other party relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, whether so obtained before or after the execution hereof, to the party furnishing the same. Notwithstanding the return of such documents, work papers and other materials, each party shall be bound by the obligations of confidentiality set forth herein for a period of two (2) years following the effective date of the termination of this Agreement.
