THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of May 19, 2017, between UNION BANKSHARES CORPORATION, a Virginia corporation (“UBSH”), and XENITH BANKSHARES, INC., a Virginia corporation (“XBKS”).

WHEREAS, the Boards of Directors of UBSH and XBKS have approved, and deem it advisable and in the best interests of their respective shareholders to consummate, the business combination transaction provided for herein in which XBKS will merge with and into UBSH (the “Merger”); and

WHEREAS, the Boards of Directors of UBSH and XBKS have each determined that the Merger is consistent with and will further their respective business strategies and goals; and

WHEREAS, as an inducement for each party to enter into this Agreement, certain shareholders of each of UBSH and XBKS have simultaneously herewith entered into voting agreements in connection with the Merger; and

WHEREAS, it is the intention of the parties that, for federal income tax purposes, the Merger shall qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Treasury regulations promulgated under the Code (and any future amendments to such regulations and any corresponding provisions of succeeding regulations) (the “Treasury Regulations”), and that this Agreement shall constitute, and is adopted as, a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code for purposes of Sections 354, 356 and 361 of the Code (and any comparable provision of state law) for federal and applicable state income tax purposes.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1
The merger and related matters

Section 1.1           The Merger.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in accordance with the Virginia Stock Corporation Act (the “VSCA”), at the Effective Time (as defined in Section 1.3), XBKS will be merged with and into UBSH pursuant to the Plan of Merger, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1 and made a part hereof (the “Plan of Merger”). The separate corporate existence of XBKS thereupon shall cease, and UBSH will be the surviving corporation in the Merger (UBSH is referred to herein as the “Continuing Corporation” whenever reference is made to it as of the Effective Time or thereafter). The Merger will have the effect set forth in Section 13.1-721 of the VSCA.

Section 1.2           Closing.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) will take place at 10:00 a.m. at the offices of Troutman Sanders LLP, 1001 Haxall Point, Richmond, Virginia on a date, which date shall be no later than three (3) business days following the satisfaction or waiver (subject to applicable law) of the latest to occur of the conditions set forth in Article 6 (other than those conditions that by their nature only can be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver thereof), unless accelerated or extended as both parties may agree in writing (the “Closing Date”). All documents required by this Agreement to be delivered at or prior to the Closing Date will be exchanged by the parties at the Closing.

Section 1.3           Effective Time.

On the Closing Date, UBSH and XBKS will execute and file articles of merger meeting the requirements of Section 13.1-720 of the VSCA, including containing the Plan of Merger (the “Articles of Merger”), with the Virginia State Corporation Commission (the “SCC”). The Merger shall become effective at the time the Certificate of Merger is issued by the SCC (or at such later time as may be specified by mutual agreement of the parties in the Articles of Merger), as provided in Sections 13.1-720 and 13.1-606 of the VSCA (the date and time the Merger becomes effective being the “Effective Time”). Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article 6, the parties will use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Effective Time to occur at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on January 1, 2018, and the parties agree that in no event shall the Effective Time occur on a date before January 1, 2018. Notwithstanding that the Closing Date may occur prior to the date of the Effective Time, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Merger shall not be effective until the occurrence of the Effective Time.

Section 1.4           Corporate Governance and Related Matters.

On or prior to the Effective Time, the Board of Directors of UBSH shall cause two (2) directors of XBKS (the “XBKS Directors”) to be appointed as directors of the Continuing Corporation as of the Effective Time to serve until the next annual meeting of the shareholders of the Continuing Corporation following the Effective Time. The XBKS Directors shall be chosen by mutual agreement of UBSH and XBKS. Subject to compliance by the Board of Directors of the Continuing Corporation with its fiduciary duties (including compliance with the Continuing Corporation’s Organizational Documents and Corporate Governance Guidelines), the Continuing Corporation shall nominate each XBKS Director for reelection to the Board of Directors of the Continuing Corporation at the first annual meeting of the shareholders of the Continuing Corporation following the Effective Time, and the Continuing Corporation’s proxy materials with respect to such annual meeting shall include the recommendation of the Board of Directors of the Continuing Corporation that its shareholders vote to reelect each XBKS Director to the same extent as recommendations are made with respect to other directors on the Board of Directors of the Continuing Corporation.

Section 1.5           Banking Operations.

(a)          After the Effective Time, Xenith Bank, Richmond, Virginia (“Xenith Bank”), the wholly owned subsidiary of XBKS, shall merge with and into Union Bank & Trust, Richmond, Virginia (“Union Bank”), the wholly owned subsidiary of UBSH (the “Bank Merger”), pursuant to the terms and conditions of an Agreement and Plan of Merger substantially in the form attached as Exhibit 1.5(a) (the “Bank Merger Agreement”) and the separate existence of Xenith Bank shall cease and Union Bank shall survive and continue to exist as a bank incorporated and chartered under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. UBSH may at any time change the method or timing of effecting the combination of Xenith Bank and Union Bank if and to the extent UBSH deems such changes necessary, appropriate or desirable for any reason in its discretion (including, without limitation, to ensure that the Merger qualifies as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code); provided, however, that no such change shall (i) alter or change the amount or kind of Merger Consideration (as defined herein), (ii) adversely affect the ability of the Merger to quality as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, (iii) materially impede or delay consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (iv) result in the Bank Merger occurring prior to the Merger of XBKS and UBSH; and provided, further, that (x) UBSH shall provide XBKS with five days’ prior written notice of such change and the reasons therefor, and (y) UBSH shall not make any change that would materially affect the tax consequences to XBKS or its shareholders without the prior written consent of XBKS (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(b)          On or prior to the effective time of the Bank Merger, UBSH as the sole shareholder of Union Bank shall cause the XBKS Directors to be appointed as directors of Union Bank as of the effective time of the Bank Merger to serve until the next annual meeting of the shareholders of Union Bank following the Effective Time. Provided that each XBKS Director continues to be eligible to serve as a director of UBSH, and subject to compliance by the Board of Directors of Union Bank with its fiduciary duties (including compliance with Union Bank’s Organizational Documents and Corporate Governance Guidelines) Union Bank shall nominate each XBKS Director for reelection to the Board of Directors of Union Bank at the first annual meeting of the shareholder of Union Bank following the Effective Time.

Section 1.6           Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Continuing Corporation.

As of the Effective Time, the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of UBSH, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Continuing Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with the provisions thereof and applicable law.

Section 1.7           Tax Consequences.

It is intended that the Merger shall constitute a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and that this Agreement shall constitute a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code for purposes of Sections 354, 356 and 361 of the Code (and any comparable provision of state law) for federal and applicable state income tax purposes. XBKS and UBSH shall prepare and file with each of their respective Tax Returns all information required by Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-3 and related provisions of the Treasury Regulations in a manner consistent with treating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as a reorganization described in Section 368(a) of the Code and shall take no position (whether in audits, Tax Returns or otherwise) that is inconsistent with this treatment unless required to do so by applicable law.

Section 1.8           Appraisal Rights.

In accordance with Section 13.1-730 of the VSCA, no appraisal rights shall be available to the holders of XBKS Common Stock in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

ARTICLE 2
merger consideration; exchange procedures

Section 2.1           Conversion of Shares.

At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of UBSH, XBKS or any holder of any of the following securities:

(a)          Each share of common stock, par value $1.33 per share, of UBSH (“UBSH Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain an issued and outstanding share of common stock of the Continuing Corporation and shall not be affected by the Merger.

(b)          All shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of XBKS (“XBKS Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that are owned, directly or indirectly, by UBSH or XBKS (other than shares of XBKS Common Stock held in trust accounts (including grantor or rabbi trust accounts), managed accounts and similar accounts, or otherwise held in a fiduciary or agency capacity, that are beneficially owned by third parties) (any such shares, the “XBKS Cancelled Shares”) shall no longer be outstanding, shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(c)          Each share of XBKS Common Stock, except for XBKS Cancelled Shares, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will cease to be outstanding and will be converted automatically into and exchanged for the right to receive 0.9354 shares (the “Exchange Ratio”) of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock, par value $1.33 per share, of the Continuing Corporation (“Continuing Corporation Common Stock”) (with respect to a given share of XBKS Common Stock, together with any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock to be paid pursuant to Section 2.6, the “Merger Consideration”); it being understood that upon the Effective Time, pursuant to Section 2.1(a), UBSH Common Stock, including the shares issued to former holders of XBKS Common Stock, shall be the Continuing Corporation Common Stock.

(d)          If, between the date hereof and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of UBSH Common Stock or XBKS Common Stock shall have been increased, decreased, changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or securities as a result of a reorganization, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or similar change in capitalization, appropriate and proportionate adjustments shall be made to the Exchange Ratio, and any other amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 2.2           Exchange Procedures.

(a)          Appointment of Exchange Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, UBSH shall appoint an exchange and paying agent reasonably acceptable to XBKS (the “Exchange Agent”) for the payment and exchange of the Merger Consideration.

(b)          At or prior to the Effective Time, UBSH shall for the benefit of holders of shares of XBKS Common Stock and the holders of XBKS Stock Options, XBKS Restricted Stock Awards, XBKS RSU Awards and the XBKS Warrants (collectively, “XBKS Equity Awards”) and for exchange in accordance with this Article 2, (i) deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent an amount of cash sufficient to pay (A) the cash payable in lieu of fractional shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock and (B) the cash payable with respect to the XBKS Equity Awards (such cash deposited pursuant to this clause (i), the “Exchange Fund”), and (ii) evidence of shares in book-entry form, representing the shares of the Continuing Corporation Common Stock to be issued and paid pursuant to this Article 2.

(c)          Letter of Transmittal. UBSH shall prepare appropriate and customary transmittal materials on which UBSH and XBKS shall mutually agree (the “Letter of Transmittal”). The Letter of Transmittal shall specify that delivery of the Letter of Transmittal and, as applicable, title and risk of loss with respect to (i) an outstanding Certificate or outstanding Certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represent outstanding shares of XBKS Common Stock (the “Certificates”), and (ii) uncertificated shares of XBKS Common Stock represented by book-entry (“Book-Entry Shares”), in each case other than XBKS Cancelled Shares, shall be effected only upon proper delivery of the completed Letter of Transmittal and, as applicable and subject to Section 2.3(d), the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent. UBSH shall make available and mail the Letter of Transmittal not more than five (5) business days after the Effective Time to all persons who were record holders of shares of XBKS Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, and use its reasonable best efforts to make the Letter of Transmittal available to any such shareholder who requests such Letter of Transmittal.

Section 2.3           Exchange of Shares.

(a)          Each holder of an outstanding share of XBKS Common Stock who has properly surrendered such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent (or has complied with Section 2.3(d)), together with a Letter of Transmittal duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto and such other documentation as the Exchange Agent and UBSH may reasonably require, shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration with respect to such share of XBKS Common Stock in accordance with Section 2.3(b).

(b)          Whenever a holder of an outstanding share of XBKS Common Stock shall become entitled to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.3(a), in addition to the rights of such holder set forth in Section 2.4, any such holder shall be entitled to receive:

(i)          evidence of issuance in book-entry form the number of whole shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock into which the aggregate number of shares of XBKS Common Stock previously represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares surrendered shall have been converted pursuant to this Agreement; and

(ii)         the amount of cash, if any, into which the aggregate number of shares of XBKS Common Stock previously represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares surrendered shall have been converted pursuant to Section 2.6 of this Agreement.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Exchange Agent shall not be obligated to deliver the Merger Consideration to which any holder of XBKS Common Stock is entitled as a result of the Merger until such holder surrenders his, her or its Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, or otherwise complies with Section 2.3(d), for exchange as provided in Section 2.3(a). Whenever a holder of an outstanding share of XBKS Common Stock shall become entitled to receive any Merger Consideration, the Continuing Corporation shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Exchange Agent to deliver such Merger Consideration to such holder within two (2) business days thereafter.

(c)          Abandoned Property. Any other provision of this Agreement notwithstanding, neither the Continuing Corporation nor the Exchange Agent shall be liable to a holder of XBKS Common Stock for any amounts paid or property delivered in good faith to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property law.

(d)          Lost Certificates. A holder of XBKS Common Stock whose Certificates have been lost, destroyed, stolen or are otherwise missing shall be entitled to receive its portion of the Merger Consideration and dividends or distributions to which such shareholder shall be entitled, if any, upon compliance with reasonable conditions imposed by the Continuing Corporation and the Exchange Agent pursuant to applicable law and as required in accordance with the Continuing Corporation’s and the Exchange Agent’s standard policy (including the requirement that the shareholder furnish an affidavit of lost certificate, surety bond or other customary indemnity).

(e)          Exchange Fund. The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as directed by the Continuing Corporation; provided, that no such investment or losses thereon shall affect the Merger Consideration, and the Continuing Corporation shall promptly provide additional funds to the Exchange Agent for the benefit of holders of XBKS Common Stock or XBKS Equity Awards in the amount of any such losses to the extent necessary for payment of the cash portion of the Merger Consideration. Any interest or other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to the Continuing Corporation or as directed by the Continuing Corporation. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (and any interest or other income earned thereon) that remains unclaimed by the former holders of XBKS Common Stock or XBKS Equity Awards for twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall, to the extent permitted by law, be paid to the Continuing Corporation. Any former holder of XBKS Common Stock who has not theretofore complied with this Article 2 shall thereafter look only to the Continuing Corporation for payment of the Merger Consideration and any unpaid dividends and distributions on Continuing Corporation Common Stock deliverable in respect of each former share of XBKS Common Stock such shareholder holds as determined pursuant to this agreement, in each case, without any interest thereon.

(f)          Rounding. All dollar amounts payable to any registered holder of XBKS Common Stock pursuant to this Article 2 shall be rounded to the nearest whole cent (with one-half cent being rounded upward), based on the aggregate amount payable for all shares of XBKS Common Stock registered in such shareholder’s name.

Section 2.4           Rights of Former Holders of XBKS Common Stock.

At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of XBKS shall be closed as to holders of XBKS Common Stock, and no transfer of XBKS Common Stock by any such holder shall thereafter be made or recognized. Until surrendered for exchange in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.3(a), each Book-Entry Share or Certificate shall from and after the Effective Time represent for all purposes only the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration in exchange therefor. To the extent permitted by law, former holders of record of XBKS Common Stock shall be entitled to vote after the Effective Time at any meeting of Continuing Corporation shareholders the number of whole shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock into which their respective shares of XBKS Common Stock are converted, regardless of whether such holders have surrendered their Book-Entry Shares or Certificates for exchange as provided in Section 2.3(a), but beginning thirty (30) days after the Effective Time, no such holder shall be entitled to vote on any matter until such holder surrenders such Certificate or Book-Entry Share for exchange as provided in Section 2.3(a). Whenever a dividend or other distribution is declared by the Continuing Corporation on Continuing Corporation Common Stock, the record date for which is at or after the Effective Time, the declaration shall include dividends or other distributions on all shares issuable pursuant to this Agreement, but no dividend or other distribution payable to the holders of record of XBKS Common Stock, if any, as of any time subsequent to the Effective Time shall be delivered to the holder of any Book-Entry Share or Certificate issued and outstanding at the Effective Time until such holder surrenders such Book-Entry Share or Certificate for exchange as provided in Section 2.3(a). However, upon surrender of such Book-Entry Share or Certificate representing XBKS Common Stock, the Merger Consideration, together with all such undelivered dividends or other distributions without interest, shall be delivered and paid with respect to each Book-Entry Share or other share represented by such Certificate.

Section 2.5           XBKS Stock Options and Other Equity-Based Awards.

(a)          Section 2.5(a) of the Disclosure Letter of XBKS lists all of the equity or equity-based compensation plans maintained by XBKS under which awards are currently outstanding or any awards may be made thereunder (collectively, a “XBKS Stock Plan”). At the Effective Time, each option to purchase shares of XBKS Common Stock (an “XBKS Stock Option”) granted under an XBKS Stock Plan, whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease, at the Effective Time, to represent a right to acquire XBKS Common Stock and shall be automatically converted at the Effective Time without any action on the part of the holder thereof into the right to receive a cash payment in an amount equal to the product of (i) the difference between (A) the product of the average of the closing sale prices of UBSH Common Stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market for the ten (10) full trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding (but not including) the Effective Time and the Exchange Ratio (the “Conversion Price”) and (b) the per share exercise price of the XBKS Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (B) the number of shares of XBKS Common Stock subject to such XBKS Stock Option, subject to any applicable withholdings authorized by Section 2.8. If the exercise price of an XBKS Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time is greater than the Conversion Price, then at the Effective Time such XBKS Stock Option shall be cancelled without any payment made in exchange therefor.

(b)          At the Effective Time, each restricted stock award granted under an XBKS Stock Plan, which is unvested or contingent and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (an “XBKS Restricted Stock Award”), shall vest fully and shall be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement in respect of each share of XBKS Common Stock underlying such XBKS Restricted Stock Award, and the shares of XBKS Common Stock subject to such XBKS Restricted Stock Award will be treated in the same manner as all other shares of XBKS Common Stock for such purposes.

(c)          At the Effective Time, each restricted stock unit award in respect of shares of XBKS Common Stock that is outstanding and unsettled, unvested or contingent immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “XBKS RSU Award”) shall vest fully and shall be converted into the right to receive, without interest, the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement in respect of each share of XBKS Common Stock underlying such XBKS RSU Award.

(d)          Prior to the Effective Time, XBKS shall take all actions necessary to cause each XBKS Stock Plan to terminate effective immediately prior to the Effective Time and contingent upon the consummation of the Merger.

(e)          At or prior to the Effective Time, the Board of Directors of XBKS or a committee thereof, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions which are reasonably necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.5, including, but not limited to, delivering written notice (in form reasonably approved by UBSH) to each holder of an XBKS Stock Option, XBKS Restricted Stock Award, or XBKS RSU Award of the treatment of such award pursuant to this Section 2.5.

Section 2.6           No Fractional Shares.

Each holder of shares of XBKS Common Stock exchanged pursuant to the Merger which would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Continuing Corporation Common Stock shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash (without interest and rounded to the nearest cent) in an amount equal to such fractional part of a share of Continuing Corporation Common Stock multiplied by the product of (i) the average of the closing sale prices of UBSH Common Stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market for the ten (10) full trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding (but not including) the Effective Time and (ii) the Exchange Ratio.

Section 2.7           XBKS Warrants.

(a)          At the Effective Time, each warrant to purchase shares of XBKS Common Stock (an “XBKS Warrant”) that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease, at the Effective Time, to represent a right to acquire XBKS Common Stock and shall be automatically converted at the Effective Time without any action on the part of the holder thereof into the right to purchase shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock upon exercise of such XBKS Warrant, with the exercise price of each share of Continuing Corporation Common Stock subject to such XBKS Warrant and the number of shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock subject to such XBKS Warrant determined as provided below:

(i)          the number of shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock to be subject to the XBKS Warrant shall be equal to the product of the number of shares of XBKS Common Stock subject to the XBKS Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time and the Exchange Ratio, provided that any fractional shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock resulting from such multiplication shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share; and

(ii)         the exercise price per share of Continuing Corporation Common Stock under the XBKS Warrant shall be equal to the exercise price per share of Continuing Corporation Common Stock under the XBKS Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by the Exchange Ratio, provided that if the exercise price resulting from such division includes a fractional cent, the exercise price shall be rounded up to the nearest cent.

(b)          XBKS, in consultation with UBSH, shall use its reasonable best efforts to repurchase the XBKS Warrant originally issued pursuant to the Troubled Asset Relief Program Capital Purchase Program and held by the U.S. Department of the Treasury prior to or concurrent with the Effective Time (the “Warrant Purchase”). The method of funding the Warrant Purchase shall be mutually agreed to by XBKS and UBSH.

(c)          Prior to the Effective Time, XBKS and UBSH shall take all other actions necessary to give effect to this Section 2.7.

Section 2.8           Withholding Rights.

The Exchange Agent will be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any person such amounts, if any, as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax (as defined herein) law. The Continuing Corporation will be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable by it pursuant to Article 2 of this Agreement to any person such amounts, if any, as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax (as defined herein) law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority by the Exchange Agent or by the Continuing Corporation, such amounts withheld will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to such person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Exchange Agent or the Continuing Corporation, respectively.

ARTICLE 3
representations and warranties

Section 3.1           Disclosure Letters.

(a)          Prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, each party has delivered to the other party a letter (its “Disclosure Letter”) setting forth, among other things, items the disclosure of which is necessary or appropriate either in response to an express disclosure requirement contained in a provision hereof or as an exception to one or more of such party’s representations or warranties contained in Section 3.3, or to one or more of its covenants or agreements contained in Article 4 or Article 5, or as required pursuant to Article 6; provided, that (i) no such item is required to be set forth in a party’s Disclosure Letter as an exception to any representation or warranty of such party if its absence would not result in the related representation or warranty being deemed untrue or incorrect under the standard established by Section 3.2, and (ii) the mere inclusion of an item in a party’s Disclosure Letter as an exception to a representation or warranty shall not be deemed an admission by that party that such item represents a material exception or fact, event or circumstance or that such item is reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect (as defined herein) with respect to such party.

(b)          Any disclosures made with respect to a subsection of Section 3.3 shall be deemed to qualify (i) any subsections of Section 3.3 specifically referenced or cross-referenced and (ii) other subsections of Section 3.3 to the extent it is reasonably apparent (notwithstanding the absence of a specific cross reference) from a reading of the disclosure that such disclosure (x) applies to such other subsections and (y) contains sufficient detail to enable a reasonable person to recognize the relevance of such disclosure to such other subsections.

(b)          The term “Material Adverse Effect,” as used with respect to a party, means any event, change, effect or occurrence which, individually or together with any other event, change, effect or occurrence, (i) has a material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, liabilities, financial condition or results of operations of such party and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (ii) materially impairs the ability of such party to perform its obligations under this Agreement or to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement on a timely basis; provided that in the case of clause (i) only, a Material Adverse Effect shall not be deemed to include the impact of (A) changes after the date of this Agreement in laws or regulations generally affecting banking and bank holding company businesses or the interpretation of such laws and regulations by any Governmental Authority, (B) changes after the date of this Agreement in generally accepted accounting principles or regulatory accounting requirements generally affecting banking and bank holding company businesses, (C) changes after the date of this Agreement in global, national or regional political conditions (including the outbreak of war or acts of terrorism) or in economic or market (including equity, credit and debt markets) conditions generally affecting banking and bank holding company businesses, (D) changes to interest rates, (E) changes in state or federal corporate income Tax rates, (F) the effects of the actions expressly permitted or required by this Agreement or that are taken with the prior written consent of the other party in contemplation of the transactions contemplated hereby, (G) the public disclosure of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including its impact on the customers, employees and vendors of such party or other persons doing business with such party or (H) a decline, in and of itself, in the trading price of a party’s common stock or the failure, in and of itself, to meet earnings projections or internal financial forecasts, but not, in either case, including the underlying causes thereof to the extent such causes are not otherwise excluded by clauses (A) though (F); except, with respect to clauses (A), (B) or (C) to the extent that the effects of such change are materially disproportionately adverse to the business, properties, assets, liabilities, financial condition or results of operations of such party and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, as compared to other companies in the industry in which such party and its Subsidiaries operate.

(c)          The term “Knowledge” with respect to UBSH, shall mean the actual knowledge, after due inquiry, of those individuals set forth in Section 3.2 of the Disclosure Letter of UBSH and, with respect to XBKS, shall mean the actual knowledge, after due inquiry, of those individuals set forth in Section 3.2 of the Disclosure Letter of XBKS.

Section 3.3           Representations and Warranties.

Subject to and giving effect to Section 3.1 and Section 3.2 and except as set forth in the relevant Disclosure Letters or in any of such party’s SEC Reports (as defined below) filed on or after January 1, 2016 and prior to the date hereof (but excluding any risk factor disclosures contained under the heading “Risk Factors,” any disclosure of risks included in any “forward-looking statements” disclaimer or any other statements that are similarly non-specific or cautionary, predictive or forward-looking in nature), UBSH represents and warrants to XBKS, to the extent applicable, and XBKS represents and warrants to UBSH, except where expressly stated otherwise, as follows:

(a)          Organization, Standing and Power. It is a Virginia corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Virginia.

It is duly licensed or qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted by it or the character or location of the properties and assets owned or leased by it makes such licensing or qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so licensed or qualified is not reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. Neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any provision of the Organizational Documents or such articles or certificate of incorporation and bylaws (or comparable organizational documents) of such Subsidiary, as applicable. True and complete copies of its Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws or other similar governing instruments (the “Organizational Documents”), in each case as amended to the date hereof and as in full force and effect as of the date hereof have been made available to the other party.

Each party shall immediately (within twenty-four (24) hours) notify the other party orally and in writing of its receipt of any such Acquisition Proposal, the material terms and conditions thereof and, the identity of the person making such Acquisition Proposal, and will thereafter keep the other party apprised of any related material developments, discussions and negotiations on a reasonably current basis, including by providing a copy of all material documentation or correspondence relating thereto.

(c)          For purposes of this Agreement, an “Acquisition Proposal” means, other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any offer, proposal or inquiry relating to, or any third party indication of interest in, any of the following transactions involving UBSH or XBKS, or their respective Subsidiaries: (i) a merger, consolidation, share exchange, business combination, reorganization, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or other similar transaction involving a party or its Subsidiaries whose assets, individually or in the aggregate, constitute more than 20% of the consolidated assets of the party; (ii) any acquisition or purchase, direct or indirect, of 20% or more of the consolidated assets of a party and its Subsidiaries or 20% or more of any class of equity or voting securities of a party or its Subsidiaries whose assets, individually or in the aggregate, constitute more than 20% of the consolidated assets of the party; or (iii) any tender offer (including a self-tender offer) or exchange offer that, if consummated, would result in such third party beneficially owning 20% or more of any class of equity or voting securities of a party or its Subsidiaries whose assets, individually or in the aggregate, constitute more than 20% of the consolidated assets of the party. Solely for purposes of Section 7.4(a), all references to “20% or more” in such definition shall be deemed to be references to “50% or more.”

(d)          For purposes of this Agreement, a “Superior Proposal” means an unsolicited, bona fide written Acquisition Proposal made by a person or entity (or group of persons or entities acting in concert within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 under the Exchange Act) that the Board of Directors of XBKS or UBSH, as the case may be, concludes in good faith, after consultation with its outside financial and legal advisors, taking into account all legal, financial, regulatory and other aspects of the Acquisition Proposal, including the likelihood of obtaining financing, and including the terms and conditions of this Agreement (as it may be proposed in writing to be amended by XBKS or UBSH, as applicable) would, if consummated, result in a transaction that is more favorable to the shareholders of XBKS or UBSH, as the case may be, from a financial point of view, than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (as it may be proposed in writing to be amended by XBKS or UBSH, as applicable); provided that, for purposes of this definition of “Superior Proposal,” “Acquisition Proposal” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 5.5(c), except the reference to “20% or more” in such definition shall be deemed to be a reference to “50% or more” and “Acquisition Proposal” shall only be deemed to refer to a transaction involving UBSH or XBKS or one of their respective banking Subsidiaries.

(e)          Except as provided in Section 5.5(f), neither the Board of Directors of XBKS, the Board of Directors of UBSH, nor, in each case, any committee thereof shall withhold, withdraw or modify in any manner adverse to the other party, or propose publicly to withhold, withdraw or modify in any manner adverse to the other party, the approval or recommendation of the Board of Directors of XBKS or UBSH, as applicable, or any such committee thereof with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (a “Change in XBKS Recommendation” or a “Change in UBSH Recommendation,” respectively).

(f)          Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Board of Directors of XBKS or UBSH, as applicable, may either:

(i)          terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(i) or Section 7.1(j), as the case may be, and enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal provided that such party shall pay the Termination Fee required to be paid pursuant to Section 7.4(b) or Section 7.4(c), as the case may be; or

(ii)         make a Change in XBKS Recommendation or a Change in UBSH Recommendation, as applicable,

(iii)        if and only if in the case of both clause (i) and (ii) above, (A) an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal (that did not result from a breach of this Section 5.5) is made to XBKS or UBSH, as applicable, by a third party, and such Acquisition Proposal is not withdrawn, (B) the Board of Directors of XBKS or UBSH, as applicable, has concluded in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors) that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal, (C) the Board of Directors of XBKS or UBSH, as applicable, have concluded in good faith (after consultation with their outside legal counsel) that failure to do so would be reasonably likely to result in a violation of its fiduciary duties to its shareholders under applicable law, (D) five (5) business days shall have elapsed since the party proposing to take such action has given written notice to the other party advising such other party that the notifying party intends to take such action and specifying in reasonable detail the reasons therefor, including, the terms and conditions of any such Acquisition Proposal that is the basis of the proposed action (a “Notice of Change”) (it being understood that any amendment to any material term of such Acquisition Proposal shall require a new Notice of Change, except that, in such case, the five (5) business day period referred to in this clause (D) and in clauses (E) and (F) shall be reduced to three (3) business days following the giving of such new Notice of Change), (E) during such five (5) business day period, the notifying party has considered and, at the reasonable request of the other party, engaged in good faith discussions with such party regarding, any adjustment or modification of the terms of this Agreement proposed in writing by the other party, and (F) the board of directors of the party proposing to take such action, following such five (5) business day period, again reasonably determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel and its financial advisors, and taking into account any adjustment or modification of the terms of this Agreement proposed in writing by the other party by the conclusion of such five (5) business day period) that such Acquisition Proposal nonetheless continues to constitute a Superior Proposal and that failure to take such action would be reasonably likely to result in a violation of its fiduciary duties to its shareholders under applicable law.

(g)          Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit XBKS, UBSH or their respective Boards of Directors or any committee thereof from at any time taking and disclosing to XBKS’s or UBSH’s shareholders, as applicable, a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9, Rule 14e-2(a), or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act; provided that any such disclosure shall be deemed to be a Change in XBKS Recommendation or a Change in UBSH Recommendation, as applicable, unless the Board of Directors reaffirms the XBKS Board Recommendation, in the case of XBKS, or the UBSH Board Recommendation, in the case of UBSH, in such statement without qualification, and shall have the consequences provided for in this Agreement.

Prior to the Effective Time, the parties hereto will consult with each other as to the form and substance of any press release or other public statement materially related to this Agreement prior to issuing such press release or public statement or making any other public disclosure related thereto (including any broad based employee communication that is reasonably likely to become the subject of public disclosure); provided, that nothing in this Section 5.7 or Section 5.5 shall prohibit any party from making any disclosure necessary in order to satisfy such party’s disclosure obligations imposed by applicable law or the rules established by the NASDAQ Stock Market or any other self-regulatory organization.

Section 5.8           Employee Benefit Plans.

(a)          As of the Effective Time and for a period of one year thereafter, the Continuing Corporation shall provide to employees of XBKS and its Subsidiaries, who after the Effective Time become employees of the Continuing Corporation or its Subsidiaries (“XBKS Continuing Employees”) (i) base salary or wages that are comparable to the base salary or wages provided to similarly situated employees of the Continuing Corporation and its Subsidiaries; (ii) incentive compensation opportunities that are comparable to the incentive compensation opportunities provided to similarly situated employees of the Continuing Corporation and its Subsidiaries and (iii) employee benefits which are, in the aggregate, comparable to the employee benefits provided to similarly situated employees of the Continuing Corporation and its Subsidiaries; provided that the Continuing Corporation may provide such benefits to XBKS Continuing Employees under the Benefit Plans of XBKS or a Subsidiary, under benefit plans maintained by the Continuing Corporation (“Continuing Corporation Plans”) or by a combination thereof.

(b)          For purposes of eligibility and participation, but not benefit accrual, service with or credited by XBKS or any of its Subsidiaries (including service with any predecessor of XBKS or any of its Subsidiaries) shall be treated as service with the Continuing Corporation. For purposes of vacation and sick leave under the Union Time Away From Work Policy (“Union PTO Policy”), XBKS Continuing Employees will receive benefit credit for prior service and will be eligible to rollover, for short-term disability leave only, into the “PTOR” subaccount of the Union PTO Policy, up to a maximum of 40 hours of unused amounts that were carried over from the prior year under XBKS’s paid time off policy.

(c)          To the extent permitted under applicable law, the Continuing Corporation shall cause welfare Continuing Corporation Plans that cover the XBKS Continuing Employees after the Effective Time to (i) waive any waiting period and restrictions and limitations for preexisting conditions or insurability (except for pre-existing conditions that were excluded, or restrictions or limitations that were applicable, under the corresponding Benefit Plans of XBKS or a Subsidiary), and (ii) cause any deductible, co-insurance, or maximum out-of-pocket payments made by the XBKS Continuing Employees under welfare Benefit Plans maintained by XBKS to be credited to such XBKS Continuing Employees under welfare Continuing Corporation Plans, so as to reduce the amount of any deductible, co-insurance, or maximum out-of-pocket payments payable by such XBKS Continuing Employees under welfare Continuing Corporation Plans.

(d)          Prior to the Effective Time, XBKS shall vest one hundred percent all accrued benefits for affected participants under the Virginia Bankers Association Master Defined Contribution Plan for Xenith Bankshares (the “XBKS 401(k) Plan”), effective on and subject to the consummation of the Merger. On or within four months following the Effective Time, UBSH shall cause the XBKS 401(k) Plan to be merged into the 401(k) plan maintained by UBSH (the “UBSH 401(k) Plan” and together with the XBKS 401(k) Plan, each a “401(k) Plan”). Each party agrees to amend its 401(k) Plan to the extent necessary to ensure that there is no duplication of participation or benefits under the 401(k) Plans and XBKS agrees to amend its 401(k) Plan effective immediately prior to the Effective Time, to provide that no additional amounts under the XBKS 401(k) Plan may be invested in the XBKS stock fund under the XBKS 401(k) Plan on or after the Effective Time. No XBKS Continuing Employee shall be eligible to participate in the 2017 UBSH/Union Bank profit sharing program, which amounts are (if any) payable in 2018.

(e)          All employees of XBKS or a Subsidiary with employment agreements are listed in Section 5.8(e) of the XBKS Disclosure Letter and XBKS and UBSH agree that Section 5.8(e) of the XBKS Disclosure Letter shall apply to such employees. UBSH will decide prior to the Effective Time which of those employees will receive an offer of employment with the Continuing Corporation. Any such employee who receives and accepts an offer of employment will be employed by the Continuing Corporation or a Subsidiary as an at-will employee and pursuant to terms established by the Continuing Corporation and will be an XBKS Continuing Employee. Any such XBKS Continuing Employee shall be eligible, immediately following the Effective Time, to become a participant in a Continuing Corporation severance plan, which plan shall be determined based on his or her position and shall be similar to the plan applicable to similarly situated employees of the Continuing Corporation.

(f)          Prior to the Effective Time, UBSH and XBKS shall consult with respect to how benefits will be provided to the XBKS Continuing Employees, e.g., by continued participation in the Benefit Plans of XBKS or a Subsidiary, by participation in Continuing Corporation Plans or a combination thereof. In consultation with UBSH, XBKS shall terminate any Benefit Plan of XBKS or a Subsidiary (other than the XBKS 401(k) Plan), in accordance with applicable law and effective immediately prior to the Effective Time, if the XBKS Continuing Employees will become eligible to participate in the corresponding Continuing Corporation Plan at the Effective Time, and pay any benefits due thereunder in accordance with the terms of any such plan.

(g)          Nothing in this Section 5.8 shall be construed to limit the right of the Continuing Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, from and after the Effective Time, to amend or terminate any of the benefit plans maintained by UBSH or XBKS or their respective Subsidiaries before the Effective Time to the extent that such benefit plans permit any such amendment or termination.

Section 5.9           Reservation of Shares; NASDAQ Listing.

(a)          UBSH shall take all corporate action as may be necessary to authorize and reserve for issuance such number of shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Agreement, and to cause all such shares, when issued pursuant to this Agreement, to be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

(b)          UBSH shall use all reasonable best efforts to cause the shares of the Continuing Corporation Common Stock to be issued in the Merger to be approved for listing on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, subject to official notice of issuance, as promptly as practicable, and in any event before the Effective Time.

Section 5.10         Indemnification.

(a)          Following the Effective Time, the Continuing Corporation and its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, shall jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold harmless, and advance expenses to any person who has rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses from XBKS or any of its Subsidiaries (an “Indemnified Party”) (in any capacity), to the same extent and on the same conditions as such person was entitled to indemnification or advancement of expenses pursuant to applicable law and XBKS’s Organizational Documents or any XBKS Subsidiary’s Organizational Documents, as the case may be, or any indemnification agreements to which an Indemnified Party is a party as in effect on the date of this Agreement, subject, in the case of advancement of expenses, to the Indemnified Party providing a written undertaking to repay such advancements as contemplated by Section 13.1-699A of the VSCA. Without limiting the foregoing, in any case or proceeding in which corporate approval may be required to effectuate any indemnification, the Continuing Corporation or its applicable Subsidiary shall direct, if any Indemnified Party elects, that the determination of permissibility of indemnification shall be made by independent counsel mutually agreed upon between the Continuing Corporation or such Subsidiary and such Indemnified Party.

(b)          The Continuing Corporation shall, at or prior to the Effective Time, purchase a six (6) year “tail” prepaid policy on the same terms and conditions as the existing directors’ and officers’ liability (including fiduciary and cyber coverage) insurance maintained by XBKS from insurance carriers with comparable credit ratings, covering, without limitation, the Merger; provided, however, that the cost of such “tail” policy shall in no event exceed three hundred percent (300%) of the amount of the last annual premium paid by XBKS for such existing directors’ and officers’ liability (and fiduciary) insurance. If, but for the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, the Continuing Corporation would be required to expend more than three hundred percent (300%) of current annual premiums, the Continuing Corporation will obtain the maximum amount of that insurance obtainable by payment of annual premiums equal to three hundred percent (300%) of current annual premiums.

(c)          Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to XBKS or any of its Subsidiaries for any of their respective directors, officers or other employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.10 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims under such policies.

(d)          This covenant is intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party and his or her respective heirs and legal representatives. The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses and the other rights provided for herein shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnified Party is entitled, whether pursuant to law, contract or otherwise.

(e)          If the Continuing Corporation or any of its successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other entity and is not the continuing or surviving entity of such consolidation or merger, transfers all or substantially all of its assets or deposits to any other entity or engages in any similar transaction, then in each case, the Continuing Corporation will cause proper provision to be made so that the successors and assigns of the Continuing Corporation will expressly assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.10.  For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent required by any agreement previously entered into by XBKS in connection with a merger, acquisition or other business combination, the provisions of this Section 5.10 shall apply to directors, officers, employees and fiduciaries of predecessor entities previously acquired by XBKS.

Section 5.11         Employment and Other Arrangements.

Except for employees of XBKS or a Subsidiary listed in Section 5.8(e) of the XBKS Disclosure Letter, XBKS and UBSH agree that each employee of XBKS and its Subsidiaries who is involuntarily terminated by XBKS following the date of this Agreement and before the Effective Time shall receive severance payments pursuant to the severance practice in use by XBKS as of the date of this Agreement, subject to the execution of a release by such employee. Except for employees of XBKS or a Subsidiary listed in Section 5.8(e) of the XBKS Disclosure Letter, XBKS and UBSH agree that each employee of XBKS and its Subsidiaries who is involuntarily terminated by the Continuing Corporation or a Subsidiary on and after the Effective Time and through the first anniversary after the Effective Time shall receive severance payments pursuant to the Xenith Bank Severance Pay Plan, subject to the execution of a release by such employee. Employees of XBKS or a Subsidiary who are not listed in Section 5.8(e) of the XBKS Disclosure Letter shall not be eligible to receive severance benefits under any UBSH/Union Bank severance plan during the one-year period after the Effective Time.

Section 5.12         Consent to Assign and Use Leased Premises.

On Section 5.12 of its Disclosure Letter, XBKS has provided a list of all leases with respect to real or personal property used by it or any Subsidiary. With respect to the leases disclosed in Section 5.12 of its Disclosure Letter, XBKS and each of its Subsidiaries will use commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain all consents necessary or appropriate to transfer and assign, as of the Effective Time, all right, title and interest of XBKS and each of its Subsidiaries to the Continuing Corporation and to permit the use and operation of the leased premises by the Continuing Corporation.

Section 5.13         Change of Method.

UBSH and XBKS shall be empowered, upon their mutual agreement and at any time prior to the Effective Time, to change the method or structure of effecting the combination of UBSH and XBKS (including the provisions of Article 1 and Article 2), if and to the extent they both deem such change to be necessary, appropriate or desirable; provided that no such change shall (i) alter or change the Exchange Ratio or Merger Consideration, (ii) adversely affect the tax treatment of XBKS’s or UBSH’s shareholders pursuant to this Agreement, (iii) adversely affect the tax treatment of XBKS or UBSH pursuant to this Agreement or (iv) materially impede or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby in a timely manner; and provided further that no such change shall be made that would materially affect the tax consequences to XBKS or its shareholders without the prior written consent of XBKS (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The parties hereto agree to reflect any such change in an appropriate amendment to this Agreement executed by both parties in accordance with Section 8.2.

Section 5.14         Takeover Laws.

If any Takeover Laws may become, or may purport to be, applicable to the transactions contemplated hereby, each party hereto and the members of their respective Boards of Directors will grant such approvals and take such actions as are necessary and legally permissible (other than as contemplated by Section 5.4) so that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize the effects of any such laws or regulations on any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.15         Supplemental Indentures.

(a)          Prior to the Effective Time, XBKS and UBSH shall take all actions necessary for UBSH to enter into a supplemental indenture or other documents with the trustee of XBKS’s trust preferred securities to evidence the succession of UBSH as the obligor on those securities as of the Effective Time and the parties hereto shall provide any opinion of counsel to the trustee required to make such assumptions effective. UBSH shall be responsible for the form of supplemental indenture, which form shall be reasonably acceptable to XBKS. UBSH agrees to assume XBKS’s obligations under the above indentures and related subordinated debentures as well as under guaranty agreements related to the trust preferred securities issued by XBKS’s trust subsidiaries.

(b)          Prior to the Effective Time, XBKS and UBSH shall take all actions necessary for UBSH to enter into a supplemental indenture or other documents with the trustee of XBKS’s subordinated notes to evidence the succession of UBSH as the obligor on those securities as of the Effective Time and the parties hereto shall provide any opinion of counsel to the trustee required to make such assumptions effective. UBSH shall be responsible for the form of supplemental indenture, which form shall be reasonably acceptable to XBKS. UBSH agrees to assume XBKS’s obligations under the above indenture.

Section 5.16         Shareholder Litigation.

XBKS shall give UBSH prompt notice of any shareholder litigation against such party or its directors or affiliates (or combination thereof) relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and shall give UBSH the opportunity to consult in the defense of any shareholder litigation relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and shall give UBSH the right to review and comment on all filings or responses to be made by XBKS in connection with any such litigation, and the right to consult on the settlement with respect to any such litigation, and XBKS will in good faith take such comments into account. In addition, no such settlement by XBKS shall be agreed to without UBSH’s prior written consent, and no such consent of UBSH shall be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Section 5.17         Section 16 Matters.

XBKS and UBSH agree that, to most effectively compensate and retain XBKS Insiders (as defined below), both prior to and after the Effective Time, it is desirable that XBKS Insiders not be subject to a risk of liability under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law in connection with the conversion of shares of XBKS Common Stock and XBKS Equity Awards in the Merger, and for that compensatory and retentive purpose agree to the provisions of this Section 5.17. XBKS shall deliver to UBSH in a reasonably timely fashion prior to the Effective Time accurate information regarding those officers and directors of XBKS subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act (the “XBKS Insiders”), and the Board of Directors of UBSH and of XBKS, or a committee of non-employee directors thereof (as such term is defined for purposes of Rule 16b-3(d) under the Exchange Act), shall reasonably promptly thereafter, and in any event prior to the Effective Time, take all such steps as may be required to cause (in the case of XBKS) any dispositions of XBKS Common Stock or XBKS Equity Awards (including the conversion of XBKS Warrants into warrants to purchase Continuing Corporation Common Stock) by the XBKS Insiders, and (in the case of UBSH) any acquisitions of Continuing Corporation Common Stock or warrants to purchase Continuing Corporation Common Stock by any XBKS Insiders who (if any), immediately following the Merger, will be officers or directors of the Surviving Corporation subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, in each case pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to be exempt from liability pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

(a)          By the mutual consent in writing of UBSH and XBKS;

(b)          By either UBSH or XBKS, evidenced by written notice, if the Merger has not been consummated by March 31, 2018, provided that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 7.1(b) shall not be available to any party whose action or failure to act has been the cause of or resulted in the failure of the Effective Time to occur on or before such date and such action or failure to act constitutes a breach of this Agreement;

(c)          By either UBSH or XBKS in the event any Regulatory Approval required to be obtained pursuant to Section 6.1(b) has been denied by the relevant Governmental Authority and such denial has become final and nonappealable or any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction shall have issued a final, nonappealable injunction permanently enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, unless the denial of such regulatory approval shall be due to, or materially contributed to by, the fault of the party seeking to terminate this Agreement to perform or observe the covenants or agreements of such party set forth in this Agreement;

(d)          By either UBSH or XBKS (provided that the terminating party is not then in material breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or in material breach of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement) in the event of a breach or inaccuracy of any representation, warranty or obligation of the other party contained in this Agreement which is not cured within thirty (30) days after the giving of written notice to the breaching party or by its nature cannot be cured within such time period and which breach or inaccuracy would provide the terminating party the ability to refuse to consummate the Merger under Section 6.2(a) and (b) in the case of UBSH and Section 6.3(a) and (b) in the case of XBKS;

(e)          By UBSH, at any time prior to the XBKS Shareholder Approval, (i) if XBKS has failed to make the XBKS Board Recommendation, (ii) upon a Change in XBKS Recommendation or upon XBKS’s approval, adoption, endorsement or recommendation of any Acquisition Proposal or (iii) if XBKS has failed to comply in all material respects with its obligations under Section 5.4(b) and Section 5.5;

In the event of termination of this Agreement by either party as provided in Section 7.1, none of UBSH, XBKS, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of the officers or directors of any of them shall have any liability hereunder or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, except that (i) Section 5.2(c) (Confidentiality), Section 5.7 (Public Announcements), Section 7.1 (Termination), Section 7.2 (Effect of Termination), Section 7.4 (Termination Fee) and Article 8 (General Provisions) shall survive any termination of this Agreement and (ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, termination will not relieve a breaching party from any liabilities or damages arising out of its willful and material breach of any provision of this Agreement.

(a)          In the event that (i) an Acquisition Proposal with respect to XBKS shall have been communicated to or otherwise made known to the shareholders, senior management or Board of Directors of XBKS, or any person or entity shall have publicly announced an intention (whether or not conditional) to make an Acquisition Proposal with respect to XBKS after the date of this Agreement, (ii) thereafter this Agreement is terminated (A) by XBKS or UBSH pursuant to Section 7.1(b) (unless the condition set forth in Section 6.1(b) has not been satisfied on or before March 31, 2018), (B) by UBSH pursuant to Section 7.1(d) or (C) by UBSH or XBKS pursuant to Section 7.1(f) and (iii) prior to the date that is twelve (12) months after the date of such termination XBKS enters into a definitive agreement or consummates a transaction with respect to an Acquisition Proposal (whether or not the same Acquisition Proposal as that referred to above), then XBKS shall, on the earlier of the date it enters into such definitive agreement or the date of consummation of such transaction, pay UBSH a fee equal to $26,500,000 (the “Termination Fee”) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts designated by UBSH.

(b)          In the event this Agreement is terminated by UBSH pursuant to Section 7.1(e) or by XBKS pursuant to Section 7.1(j), then XBKS shall, on the date of termination, pay UBSH the Termination Fee by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts designated by UBSH.

Accordingly, if UBSH or XBKS, as applicable, fails promptly to pay the amount due pursuant to this Section 7.4, and, in order to obtain such payment, UBSH or XBKS, as applicable, commences a suit which results in a judgment against the other party for the fee set forth in this Section 7.4, UBSH or XBKS, as applicable, shall pay to the other party its fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount of the fee at a rate per annum equal to the prime rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the date such payment was required to be made. The rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have hereunder.

(e)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, but without limiting the right of any party to recover liabilities or damages arising out of the other party’s willful and material breach of any provision of this Agreement, in the event that this Agreement is terminated as provided in Section 7.1, the maximum aggregate amount of monetary fees, liabilities or damages payable by a single party under this Agreement shall be equal to the Termination Fee, and neither party shall be obligated to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

Section 7.5           Expenses.

At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of UBSH or XBKS or the holder of any of the following securities:

(a)          Each share of common stock, par value $1.33 per share, of UBSH (“UBSH Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain an issued and outstanding share of common stock of the Continuing Corporation and shall not be affected by the Merger.

(b)          All shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of XBKS (“XBKS Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that are owned, directly or indirectly, by UBSH or XBKS (other than shares of XBKS Common Stock held in trust accounts (including grantor or rabbi trust accounts), managed accounts and similar accounts, or otherwise held in a fiduciary or agency capacity, that are beneficially owned by third parties) (any such shares, the “XBKS Cancelled Shares”) shall no longer be outstanding, shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(c)          Each share of XBKS Common Stock, except for XBKS Cancelled Shares, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will cease to be outstanding and will be converted automatically into and exchanged for the right to receive 0.9354 shares (the “Exchange Ratio”) of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock, par value $1.33 per share, of the Continuing Corporation (“Continuing Corporation Common Stock”) (with respect to a given share of XBKS Common Stock, together with any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock to be paid pursuant to Section 2.6, the “Merger Consideration”) it being understood that upon the Effective Time, pursuant to Section 2.1(a), UBSH Common Stock, including the shares issued to former holders of XBKS Common Stock, shall be the Continuing Corporation Common Stock.

(d)          If, between the date hereof and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of UBSH Common Stock or XBKS Common Stock shall have been increased, decreased, changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or securities as a result of a reorganization, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or similar change in capitalization, appropriate and proportionate adjustments shall be made to the Exchange Ratio, and any other amounts payable pursuant to this Plan of Merger.

2.2           Exchange Procedures.

(a)          Appointment of Exchange Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, UBSH shall appoint an exchange and paying agent reasonably acceptable to XBKS (the “Exchange Agent”) for the payment and exchange of the Merger Consideration.

(b)          At or prior to the Effective Time, UBSH shall for the benefit of holders of shares of XBKS Common Stock and the holders of XBKS Stock Options, XBKS Restricted Stock Awards, XBKS RSU Awards and the XBKS Warrants ( each as defined herein and collectively, “XBKS Equity Awards”) and for exchange in accordance with this Article 2, (i) deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent an amount of cash sufficient to pay (A) the cash payable in lieu of fractional shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock and (B) the cash payable with respect to the XBKS Equity Awards (such cash deposited pursuant to this clause (i), the “Exchange Fund”), and (ii) evidence of shares in book-entry form, representing the shares of the Continuing Corporation Common Stock to be issued and paid pursuant to this Article 2.

(c)          Letter of Transmittal. UBSH shall prepare appropriate and customary transmittal materials on which UBSH and XBKS shall mutually agree (the “Letter of Transmittal”). The Letter of Transmittal shall specify that delivery of the Letter of Transmittal and, as applicable, title and risk of loss with respect to (i) an outstanding Certificate or outstanding Certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represent outstanding shares of XBKS Common Stock (the “Certificates”), and (ii) uncertificated shares of XBKS Common Stock represented by book-entry (“Book-Entry Shares”), in each case other than XBKS Cancelled Shares, shall be effected only upon proper delivery of the completed Letter of Transmittal and, as applicable and subject to Section 2.3(d), the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent. UBSH shall make available and mail the Letter of Transmittal not more than five (5) business days after the Effective Time to all persons who were record holders of shares of XBKS Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, and use its reasonable best efforts to make the Letter of Transmittal available to any such shareholder who requests such Letter of Transmittal.

2.3           Exchange of Shares.

(a)          Each holder of an outstanding share of XBKS Common Stock who has properly surrendered such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent (or has complied with Section 2.3(d), together with a Letter of Transmittal duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto and such other documentation as the Exchange Agent and UBSH may reasonably require, shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration with respect to such share of XBKS Common Stock in accordance with Section 2.3(b).

(b)         Whenever a holder of an outstanding share of XBKS Common Stock shall become entitled to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.3(a), in addition to the rights of such holder set forth in Section 2.4, any such holder shall be entitled to receive:

(i)          evidence of issuance in book-entry form the number of whole shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock into which the aggregate number of shares of XBKS Common Stock previously represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares surrendered shall have been converted pursuant to this Plan of Merger; and

(ii)         the amount of cash, if any, into which the aggregate number of shares of XBKS Common Stock previously represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares surrendered shall have been converted pursuant to Section 2.6 of this Plan of Merger.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Exchange Agent shall not be obligated to deliver the Merger Consideration to which any holder of XBKS Common Stock is entitled as a result of the Merger until such holder surrenders his, her or its Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, or otherwise complies with Section 2.3(d), for exchange as provided in Section 2.3(a). Whenever a holder of an outstanding share of XBKS Common Stock shall become entitled to receive any Merger Consideration, the Continuing Corporation shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Exchange Agent to deliver such Merger Consideration to such holder within two (2) business days thereafter.

(c)          Abandoned Property. Any other provision of this Plan of Merger notwithstanding, neither the Continuing Corporation nor the Exchange Agent shall be liable to a holder of XBKS Common Stock for any amounts paid or property delivered in good faith to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property law.

(d)          Lost Certificates. A holder of XBKS Common Stock whose Certificates have been lost, destroyed, stolen or are otherwise missing shall be entitled to receive its portion of the Merger Consideration and dividends or distributions to which such shareholder shall be entitled, if any, upon compliance with reasonable conditions imposed by the Continuing Corporation and the Exchange Agent pursuant to applicable law and as required in accordance with the Continuing Corporation’s and the Exchange Agent’s standard policy (including the requirement that the shareholder furnish an affidavit of lost certificate, surety bond or other customary indemnity).

(e)          Exchange Fund. The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as directed by the Continuing Corporation; provided, that no such investment or losses thereon shall affect the Merger Consideration, and the Continuing Corporation shall promptly provide additional funds to the Exchange Agent for the benefit of holders of XBKS Common Stock or XBKS Equity Awards in the amount of any such losses to the extent necessary for payment of the cash portion of the Merger Consideration. Any interest or other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to the Continuing Corporation or as directed by the Continuing Corporation. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (and any interest or other income earned thereon) that remains unclaimed by the former holders of XBKS Common Stock or XBKS Equity Awards for twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall, to the extent permitted by law, be paid to the Continuing Corporation. Any former holder of XBKS Common Stock who has not theretofore complied with this Article 2 shall thereafter look only to the Continuing Corporation for payment of the Merger Consideration and any unpaid dividends and distributions on Continuing Corporation Common Stock deliverable in respect of each former share of XBKS Common Stock such shareholder holds as determined pursuant to this Plan of Merger, in each case, without any interest thereon.

(f)          Rounding. All dollar amounts payable to any registered holder of XBKS Common Stock pursuant to this Article 2 shall be rounded to the nearest whole cent (with one-half cent being rounded upward), based on the aggregate amount payable for all shares of XBKS Common Stock registered in such shareholder’s name.         

2.4           Rights of Former Holders of XBKS Common Stock.

At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of XBKS shall be closed as to holders of XBKS Common Stock, and no transfer of XBKS Common Stock by any such holder shall thereafter be made or recognized. Until surrendered for exchange in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.3(a), each Book-Entry Share or Certificate shall from and after the Effective Time represent for all purposes only the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration in exchange therefor. To the extent permitted by law, former holders of record of XBKS Common Stock shall be entitled to vote after the Effective Time at any meeting of Continuing Corporation shareholders the number of whole shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock into which their respective shares of XBKS Common Stock are converted, regardless of whether such holders have surrendered their Book-Entry Shares or Certificates for exchange as provided in Section 2.3(a), but beginning thirty (30) days after the Effective Time, no such holder shall be entitled to vote on any matter until such holder surrenders such Certificate or Book-Entry Share for exchange as provided in Section 2.3(a). Whenever a dividend or other distribution is declared by the Continuing Corporation on Continuing Corporation Common Stock, the record date for which is at or after the Effective Time, the declaration shall include dividends or other distributions on all shares issuable pursuant to this Plan of Merger, but no dividend or other distribution payable to the holders of record of XBKS Common Stock, if any, as of any time subsequent to the Effective Time shall be delivered to the holder of any Book-Entry Share or Certificate issued and outstanding at the Effective Time until such holder surrenders such Book-Entry Share or Certificate for exchange as provided in Section 2.3(a). However, upon surrender of such Book-Entry Share or Certificate representing XBKS Common Stock, the Merger Consideration, together with all such undelivered dividends or other distributions without interest, shall be delivered and paid with respect to each Book-Entry Share or other share represented by such Certificate.

2.5           XBKS Stock Options and Other Equity-Based Awards.

(a)          At the Effective Time, each option to purchase shares of XBKS Common Stock (an “XBKS Stock Option”) granted under any equity or equity-based compensation plans maintained by XBKS under which awards are currently outstanding or any awards may be made thereunder (collectively, a “XBKS Stock Plan”), whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease, at the Effective Time, to represent a right to acquire XBKS Common Stock and shall be automatically converted at the Effective Time without any action on the part of the holder thereof into the right to receive a cash payment in an amount equal to the product of (i) the difference between (A) the product of the average of the closing sale prices of UBSH Common Stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market for the ten (10) full trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding (but not including) the Effective Time and the Exchange Ratio (the “Conversion Price”) and (b) the per share exercise price of the XBKS Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (B) the number of shares of XBKS Common Stock subject to such XBKS Stock Option, subject to any applicable withholdings authorized by Section 2.8. If the exercise price of an XBKS Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time is greater than the Conversion Price, then at the Effective Time such XBKS Stock Option shall be cancelled without any payment made in exchange therefor.

(b)          At the Effective Time, each restricted stock award granted under an XBKS Stock Plan, which is unvested or contingent and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (an “XBKS Restricted Stock Award”), shall vest fully and shall be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to this Plan of Merger in respect of each share of XBKS Common Stock underlying such XBKS Restricted Stock Award, and the shares of XBKS Common Stock subject to such XBKS Restricted Stock Award will be treated in the same manner as all other shares of XBKS Common Stock for such purposes.

(c)          At the Effective Time, each restricted stock unit award in respect of shares of XBKS Common Stock that is outstanding and unsettled, unvested or contingent immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “XBKS RSU Award”) shall vest fully and shall be converted into the right to receive, without interest, the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to this Plan of Merger in respect of each share of XBKS Common Stock underlying such XBKS RSU Award.

2.6           No Fractional Shares.

Each holder of shares of XBKS Common Stock exchanged pursuant to the Merger which would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Continuing Corporation Common Stock shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash (without interest and rounded to the nearest cent) in an amount equal to such fractional part of a share of Continuing Corporation Common Stock multiplied by the product of (i) the average of the closing sale prices of UBSH Common Stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market for the ten (10) full trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding (but not including) the Effective Time and (ii) the Exchange Ratio.

2.7           XBKS Warrants.

(a)          At the Effective Time, each warrant to purchase shares of XBKS Common Stock (an “XBKS Warrant”) that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease, at the Effective Time, to represent a right to acquire XBKS Common Stock and shall be automatically converted at the Effective Time without any action on the part of the holder thereof into the right to purchase shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock upon exercise of such XBKS Warrant, with the exercise price of each share of Continuing Corporation Common Stock subject to such XBKS Warrant and the number of shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock subject to such XBKS Warrant determined as provided below:

(i)          the number of shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock to be subject to the XBKS Warrant shall be equal to the product of the number of shares of XBKS Common Stock subject to the XBKS Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time and the Exchange Ratio, provided that any fractional shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock resulting from such multiplication shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share; and

(ii)         the exercise price per share of Continuing Corporation Common Stock under the XBKS Warrant shall be equal to the exercise price per share of Continuing Corporation Common Stock under the XBKS Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by the Exchange Ratio, provided that if the exercise price resulting from such division includes a fractional cent, the exercise price shall be rounded up to the nearest cent.

2.8           Withholding Rights.

The Exchange Agent will be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Plan of Merger to any person such amounts, if any, as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax (as defined in the Agreement) law. The Continuing Corporation will be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable by it pursuant to Article 2 of this Plan of Merger to any person such amounts, if any, as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority by the Exchange Agent or by the Continuing Corporation, such amounts withheld will be treated for all purposes of this Plan of Merger as having been paid to such person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Exchange Agent or the Continuing Corporation, respectively.

2.9           Appraisal Rights.

In accordance with Section 13.1-730 of the VSCA, no appraisal rights shall be available to the holders of XBKS Common Stock in connection with the Merger or any other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

EXHIBIT 6.3(d)

AFFILIATE AGREEMENT

THIS AFFILIATE AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), dated as of May 19, 2017, is by and among UNION BANKSHARES CORPORATION, a Virginia corporation (“UBSH”), XENITH BANKSHARES, INC., a Virginia corporation (“XBKS”), and the undersigned shareholder of UBSH (the “Shareholder”). All terms used herein and not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Merger Agreement (defined below).

WHEREAS, the Boards of Directors of UBSH and XBKS have approved a business combination of their companies through the merger (the “Merger”) of XBKS with and into UBSH pursuant to the terms and conditions of an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated as of May 19, 2017, between UBSH and XBKS, and a related Plan of Merger (together referred to herein as the “Merger Agreement”);

WHEREAS, the Shareholder is the beneficial or registered owner of, and has the sole power to vote or direct the disposition of the number of shares of common stock, par value $1.33 per share, of UBSH (“UBSH Common Stock”) set forth opposite the Shareholder’s name on Schedule A hereto (such shares, together with all shares of UBSH Common Stock subsequently acquired by the Shareholder during the term of this Agreement and over which such Shareholder has the sole power to vote or direct the disposition, are referred to herein as the “Shares”); and

WHEREAS, as a condition and inducement to XBKS and UBSH entering into the Merger Agreement, the Shareholder has agreed to enter into and perform this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants, representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein and in the Merger Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration (including the merger consideration set forth in Article 2 of the Merger Agreement), the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

1.          Agreement to Vote; Revocable Proxy.

(a)          During the term of this Agreement and at such time as UBSH conducts the UBSH Shareholders Meeting, the Shareholder agrees to vote or cause to be voted all of the Shares, and to cause any holder of record of the Shares to vote all such Shares, in person or by proxy: (i) in favor of the Merger Agreement at the UBSH Shareholders Meeting; and (ii) against (A) any Acquisition Proposal, (B) any action, proposal, transaction or agreement which could reasonably be expected to result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of UBSH under the Merger Agreement or of the Shareholder under this Agreement and (C) any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that could reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, delay, discourage, adversely affect or inhibit the timely consummation of the Merger or the fulfillment of XBKS’s or UBSH’s conditions under the Merger Agreement.

(b)          Shareholder hereby revokes any and all previous proxies granted with respect to the Shareholder’s Shares. By entering into this Agreement, Shareholder hereby grants a revocable proxy appointing XBKS as such Shareholder’s attorney-in-fact and proxy, with full power of substitution, for and in such Shareholder’s name, to vote, express consent or dissent, or otherwise to utilize such voting power in the manner contemplated by Section 1(a) above as XBKS or its proxy or substitute shall, in XBKS’s sole discretion, deem proper with respect to the Shareholder’s Shares. The proxy granted by Shareholder pursuant to this Section 1 is revocable and is granted in consideration of XBKS entering into this Agreement and the Merger Agreement and incurring certain related fees and expenses. The proxy granted by Shareholder shall be revoked upon termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

2.          Covenants of Shareholder.

The Shareholder represents, warrants, covenants and/or agrees as follows:

(a)          Ownership. The Shareholder is the beneficial or registered owner of the Shares as set forth opposite the Shareholder’s name on Schedule A hereto. Except for the Shareholder’s Shares, the Shareholder is not the beneficial or registered owner of any other shares of UBSH Common Stock or rights to acquire shares of UBSH Common Stock and for which Shareholder has sole right and power to vote and/or dispose. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “beneficial ownership” shall be interpreted in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

(b)          Restrictions on Transfer. During the term of this Agreement, the Shareholder will not sell, pledge, hypothecate, grant a security interest in, transfer or otherwise dispose of or encumber any of the Shares and will not enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding (other than a proxy for the purpose of voting the Shareholder’s Shares in accordance with Section 1 hereof) which would during that term (i) restrict, (ii) establish a right of first refusal to, or (iii) otherwise relate to, the transfer or voting of the Shares.

(c)          Authority. The Shareholder has full power, authority and legal capacity to enter into, execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform fully the Shareholder’s obligations hereunder (including the revocable proxy described in Section 1(b) hereof). This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Shareholder and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Shareholder, enforceable against the Shareholder in accordance with its terms.

(d)          No Breach. None of the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation by the Shareholder of the transactions contemplated hereby will result in a violation of, or a default under, or conflict with, any contract, loan and credit arrangements, Liens (as defined in Section 2(e) below), trust, commitment, agreement, understanding, arrangement or restriction of any kind to which the Shareholder is a party or bound or to which the Shares are subject.

(e)          No Liens. The Shares and the certificates representing any of the Shares are now, and at all times during the term of this Agreement, will be, held by the Shareholder, or by a nominee or custodian for the benefit of the Shareholder, free and clear of all pledges, liens, security interests, claims, proxies, voting trusts or agreements, understandings or arrangements or any other encumbrances whatsoever (each, a “Lien”), except for (i) any Liens arising hereunder, and (ii) Liens, if any, which have been disclosed on Schedule B attached hereto.

(f)          Consents and Approvals. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Shareholder does not, and the performance by the Shareholder of his or her obligations under this Agreement and the consummation by him or her of the transactions contemplated hereby will not, require the Shareholder to obtain any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or to make any filing with or notification to, any Governmental Authority.

(g)          Absence of Litigation. There is no suit, action, investigation or proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of the Shareholder, threatened against or affecting the Shareholder or any of his or her affiliates before or by any Governmental Authority that could reasonably be expected to materially impair the ability of the Shareholder to perform his or her obligations hereunder or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

(h)          No Solicitation. During the term of this Agreement, the Shareholder shall not, nor shall he or she permit any investment banker, attorney or other adviser or representative of the Shareholder to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate or encourage the submission of any Acquisition Proposal, or (ii) participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any person any information with respect to, or take any other action to facilitate any inquiries or the making of any proposal that constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal.

(i)          Statements. Except in connection with a Change in UBSH Recommendation, the Shareholder shall not make any public statement, written or oral, to the effect that he or she does not support the Merger or that other shareholders of UBSH should not support the Merger.

3.          No Prior Proxies.

The Shareholder represents, warrants and covenants that any prior proxies or voting rights previously given in respect of the Shares are revocable, and that any such proxies or voting rights are hereby irrevocably revoked.

4.          Certain Events.

The Shareholder agrees that this Agreement and the obligations hereunder shall attach to the Shares and shall be binding upon any person or entity to which legal or beneficial ownership of the Shares shall pass, whether by operation of law or otherwise, including the Shareholder’s successors or assigns.
