Election of Directors
In connection with the acquisition of Shore Financial Corporation ("SFC") by Hampton Roads Bankshares, Inc. (the "Company"), on June 10, 2008 the Company's Board of Directors increased its size from 10 members to 13 members and, as provided for in the merger agreement, elected Henry P. Custis, Jr., Scott C. Harvard and Richard F. Hall, III (collectively, the "New Directors"), formerly members of the SFC board of directors, to the Board of Directors of the Company.  Each of the New Directors was appointed to the class of directors whose term expires in 2009.
Election of Officer
On June 10, 2008 the Company's Board of Directors elected Scott C. Harvard Executive Vice President for Delmarva Operations.
Employment Agreements
Upon the closing of the acquisition of SFC, the Company and Shore Bank, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, entered into an employment agreement with Scott C. Harvard.  The agreement has a term of sixty (60) months with an initial base salary of $250,000.  Mr. Harvard received a retention bonus of $644,000 in cash and deferred compensation.  The agreement provides for certain payments under specified circumstances including a change in control of the Company.  The agreement restricts Mr. Harvard from employment that competes with Shore Bank for one year following termination of employment.  In addition he is restricted from the solicitation of business of Shore Bank's customers and solicitation of employment of Shore Bank's employees for a period of one year following termination of employment.  The agreement further prohibits the disclosure of proprietary information.  In addition, the
Company entered into a restrictive covenant agreement with Mr. Harvard that restricts Mr. Harvard from employment that competes with the Company and any of its affiliates for a period of time specified in the covenant.  Mr. Harvard received $175,000 in compensation for entering into the covenant.
The above summaries of Mr. Harvard's employment agreement and restrictive covenant agreement are qualified in their entirety by the full text of such documents, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 respectively and incorporated by reference herein.
Shore Bank entered into a deferred compensation agreement with Mr. Harvard.  Under the terms of the arrangement $400,000 of Mr. Harvard's retention bonus was deferred.  Future deferral amounts will be calculated based upon the performance, as defined in the agreement, of Shore Bank.  Payments under the deferred compensation agreement will begin at the earlier of ten years from the date of the agreement or the date on which Mr. Harvard's employment with Shore Bank and its affiliates ceases.
The above summary of Mr. Harvard's deferred compensation agreement is qualified in its entirety by the full text of such document, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.3 and incorporated by reference herein.
