Burnie Bancorp, a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), hereby establishes the Glen Burnie Bancorp 2019 Equity Incentive
Plan (the “Plan”). Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms shall have the meanings set forth in Section
2.1. The Plan permits the grant of Incentive Stock Options, Nonqualified Stock Options, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units,
Stock Appreciation Rights, Performance Units and Performance Cash Awards to Key Employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries and
the grant of Nonqualified Stock Options, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Stock Appreciation Rights, Performance Units
and Performance Cash Awards to Non-Employee Directors of the Company or its Subsidiaries or to Consultants or Advisors to the Company
or its Subsidiaries.
(b) The
Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company on March 14, 2019 and shall become effective on March 14, 2019, (the

any other active equity plans as of the date of this adoption of the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan.
1.2
Purpose
of the Plan
. The purpose of the Plan is to promote the success of the Company and its subsidiaries by providing incentives
to Key Employees, Non-Employee Directors, Consultants and Advisors that will promote the identification of their personal interests
with the long-term financial success of the Company and with growth in shareholder value, consistent with the Company’s risk
management practices. The Plan is designed to provide flexibility to the Company, including its subsidiaries, in its ability to
attract, retain the services of, and motivate Key Employees, Non-Employee Directors, Consultants and Advisors upon whose judgment,
interest, and special effort the successful conduct of its operation is largely dependent.
1.3
Equity
Awards for Named Executive Officers
. A significant portion of equity incentive awards to “named executive officers”
(as defined in Item 402 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC) will be contingent on performance with a minimum vesting period
of one year. At minimum, 50% of our CEO’s annual equity awards will be performance-based and have a minimum three-year vesting
period. The Company may also require an additional holding period, once shares vest, in accordance with Stock Ownership Policies
in place. Named executive officers will be required to hold all vested and exercised equity awards for a minimum of twelve months.
1.4
Duration
of the Plan
. The terms of this Plan shall become effective on the Effective Date, as described in Section 1.1(b). No Award
may be granted under the Plan after March 13, 2029. Awards outstanding on such date shall remain valid in accordance with their

exchange or system on which the Stock is then listed or reported, was not a “non-employee director” as defined in Rule
16b-3, and/or was not an “outside director” as that term is defined for purposes of Code Section 162(m)(4)(C)(i), as
applicable, on the Award Date, such determination shall not invalidate the Award and the Award shall remain valid in accordance
with its terms. Except as required under Section 2.1(x), any authority granted to the Committee may also be exercised by the full
Board.
(b) The

the Committee. In addition to any other powers and, subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have the following
specific powers: (i) to determine the terms and conditions upon which the Awards may be made and exercised; (ii) to determine all
terms and provisions of each Agreement, which need not be identical; (iii) to construe and interpret the Agreements and the Plan,
including the ability to resolve any ambiguities and define any terms; (iv) to establish, amend or waive rules or regulations for
the Plan’s administration; (v) in limited circumstances, generally involving death, disability, termination of employment
(including retirement) or a Change of Control, to accelerate the exercisability of any Award or the termination of any Period of
Restriction or other restrictions imposed under the Plan to the extent permitted by Code Section 409A; and (vi) to make all other
determinations and take all other actions necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. The interpretation and construction
of any provisions of the Plan or an Agreement by the Committee shall be final and conclusive. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency
between the Plan and any Agreement, the Plan shall govern, and the Agreement shall be interpreted to minimize or eliminate any
such conflict or inconsistency.
(c) The
Committee may consult with counsel, who may be counsel to the Company, and shall not incur any liability for any action taken in
good faith in reliance upon the advice of counsel.
(d) The
Committee, in its discretion, may delegate to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (acting alone) all or part of the Committee’s
authority and duties with respect to Awards to individuals who are not subject to the reporting and other provisions of Section
16 of the Exchange Act. The Committee may revoke or amend the terms of a delegation at any time but such action shall not invalidate
any prior actions of the Committee’s delegee that were consistent with the terms of the Plan.

Non-Employee Directors, Consultants and Advisors as may be selected by the Committee. Each Award shall be evidenced by an Agreement.

of Committee
. In addition to such other rights of indemnification as they may have as directors or as members of the Committee,
the members of the Committee shall be indemnified by the Company against reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees,
actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding, or in connection with any appeal
therein, to which they or any of them may be a party by reason of any action taken or failure to act under or in connection with
the Plan or any Award granted or made hereunder, and against all amounts reasonably paid by them in settlement thereof or paid
by them in satisfaction of a judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding, if such members acted in good faith and in a manner
which they believed to be in, and not opposed to, the best interests of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(b) Subject
to adjustment as provided in Article XIII, no more than an aggregate of 75,000 Shares may be issued pursuant to the exercise of
Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan (including shares issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options that

4.2
Lapsed
Awards or Forfeited Shares

used to satisfy payment of withholding taxes associated with an Award shall not be available for future Awards under the Plan.
To the extent Shares are delivered or withheld pursuant to the exercise of an Option or a SAR, the number of underlying Shares
as to which the exercise related shall be counted against the number of Shares available for future Awards under the Plan, as opposed
to counting only those Shares issued upon exercise.

the employment of a Key Employee or the service of a Non-Employee Director, Consultant or Advisor after the grant, or to make further
grants to a Key Employee, Non-Employee Director, Consultant or Advisor at any time thereafter.
ARTICLE VI
Stock Options
6.1
Grants
of Options
. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan, Options may be granted to such Key Employees, Non-Employee Directors,
Consultants or Advisors at any time and from time to time as shall be determined by the Committee. The Committee shall have complete
discretion in determining the number of Shares subject to Options granted to each Participant, provided, however, that only Nonqualified
Stock Options may be granted to Non-Employee Directors, Consultants and Advisors.
6.2
Option
Agreement
. Each Option grant shall be evidenced by an Agreement that shall specify the type of Option granted, the Option Price
(as hereinafter defined), the duration of the Option, the number of Shares to which the Option pertains, any conditions imposed
upon the exercisability of the Option, and such other provisions as the Committee shall determine, provided, however, that, if
the exercisability of an Option is subject solely to time-based conditions, the length of such period of time shall not be less
than one year, subject to applicable provisions regarding accelerated vesting. The Agreement shall specify whether the Option is
intended to be an Incentive Stock Option or Nonqualified Stock Option, provided, however, that if an Option is intended to be an
Incentive Stock Option but fails to be such for any reason, it shall continue in full force and effect as a Nonqualified Stock
Option. No Option may be exercised after the expiration of its term or, except as set forth in the Participant’s stock option
Agreement, after the termination of the Participant’s employment or service. The Committee shall set forth in the Participant’s
Agreement when, and under what circumstances, an Option may be exercised after termination of the Participant’s employment
or period of service, provided that no Incentive Stock Option may be exercised after (a) three months from the Participant’s
termination of employment with the Company for reasons other than Disability or death, or (b) one year from the Participant’s
termination of employment on account of Disability or death. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, amend a previously granted
Incentive Stock Option to provide for more liberal exercise provisions, provided, however, that if the Incentive Stock Option as
amended no longer meets the requirements of Code Section 422, and, as a result the Option no longer qualifies for favorable federal
income tax treatment under Code Section 422, the amendment shall not become effective without the written consent of the Participant.
6.3
Option
Price
. The exercise price per share of Stock covered by an Option (“Option Price”) shall be determined by the Committee
subject to the limitations described in this Section 6.3 and the Plan. The Option Price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair
Market Value of such Stock on the Award Date. In addition, an ISO granted to a Key Employee who, at the time of grant, is a 10%
Shareholder, shall have an Option Price which is at least equal to 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the Award Date.
6.4
Duration
of Options
. Each Option shall expire at such time as the Committee shall determine at the time of grant, provided, however,
that no Option shall be exercisable later than the tenth (10
th
) anniversary of its Award Date. In no event shall an
ISO granted to a Key Employee who, at the time of grant, is a 10% Shareholder, be exercisable later than the tenth (10
th
)
anniversary of its Award Date.
6.5
Exercisability
.
(a) Options
granted under the Plan shall be exercisable at such times and be subject to such restrictions and conditions as the Committee shall
determine, which need not be the same for all Participants.
(b) An
Incentive Stock Option, by its terms, shall be exercisable in any calendar year only to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market
Value (determined at the Award Date) of the Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable by the Participant
for the first time during the calendar year does not exceed $100,000 (the “Limitation Amount”). Incentive Stock Options
granted under the Plan and all other plans of the Company and any Subsidiary shall be aggregated for purposes of determining whether
the Limitation Amount has been exceeded. The Committee may impose such conditions, as it deems appropriate on an Incentive Stock
Option to ensure that the foregoing requirement is met. If Incentive Stock Options that first become exercisable in a calendar
year exceed the Limitation Amount, the excess Options will be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options to the extent permitted by
law.
6.6
Method
of Exercise
. Options shall be exercised by the delivery of a written notice to the Company in the form (which may be electronic)
prescribed by the Committee (or its delegee) setting forth the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is to be exercised,
accompanied by full payment for the Shares and payment of (or an arrangement satisfactory to the Company for the Participant to
pay) any tax withholding required in connection with the Option exercise. The Option Price shall be payable to the Company in full
either (a) in cash, (b) by delivery of Shares of Stock that the Participant has previously acquired and owned valued at Fair Market
Value at the time of exercise, (c) by delivery of a properly executed exercise notice together with irrevocable instructions to
a broker to deliver promptly to the Company, from the sale proceeds with respect to the sale of Stock, the amount necessary to
pay the Option Price and, if necessary, applicable withholding taxes, (d) by the Company withholding Shares otherwise issuable
upon the exercise valued at Fair Market Value at the time of exercise, or (e) by a combination of the foregoing. As soon as practicable,
after receipt of written notice and payment of the Option Price and completion of payment of (or an arrangement satisfactory to
the Company for the Participant to pay) any tax withholding required in connection with the Option exercise, the Company shall,
in the Committee’s discretion, either deliver to the Participant stock certificates in an appropriate amount based upon the
number of Options exercised, issued in the Participant’s name, or deliver the appropriate number of Shares in book-entry
or electronic form.
6.7
Restrictions
on Stock Transferability
. The Committee shall impose such restrictions on any Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an
Option under the Plan as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, restrictions under the applicable federal securities
law, under the requirements of any national securities exchange or system on which the Stock is then listed or reported, and under
any blue sky or state securities laws applicable to such Shares. The Committee may specify in an Agreement that Stock delivered
on exercise of an Option is Restricted Stock or Stock subject to a buyback right by the Company in the amount of, or based on,
the Option Price therefor in the event the Participant does not complete a specified service period after exercise.
6.8
Nontransferability
of Options
.
(a) In
general, no Option granted under the Plan may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated,
otherwise than upon the death of the Participant in accordance with Section 17.11. Further, Options granted to a Participant under
the Plan shall be exercisable during his lifetime only by such Participant or his guardian or legal representative.
(b) Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 6.8(a) and subject to federal and state securities laws, including Rule 16b-3, the Committee may grant
or amend Nonqualified Stock Options that permit a Participant to transfer the Options to his spouse, lineal ascendants and/or lineal
descendants, to a trust for the benefit of such persons, or to a partnership, limited liability company, or other entity the only
partners, members, or interest-holders of which are such persons, provided that the Nonqualified Stock Option may not again be
transferred other than to the Participant originally receiving the Option or to an individual, trust, partnership, limited liability
company or other entity to which such Participant could have transferred the Option pursuant to this Section 6.8(b). Consideration
may not be paid for the transfer of Options. The transferee of an Option shall be subject to all conditions applicable to the Option
prior to its transfer. The Agreement granting the Option shall set forth the transfer conditions and restrictions. The Committee
may impose on any transferable Option and on Stock issued upon the exercise of an Option such limitations and conditions as the
Committee deems appropriate. Any such transfer supersedes any Beneficiary designation made under Section 17.11 with respect to
the transferred Nonqualified Stock Options.
6.9
Disqualifying
Disposition of Shares Issued on Exercise of an ISO
. If a Participant makes a “disposition” (within the meaning
of Code Section 424(c)) of Shares issued upon exercise of an ISO within two (2) years from the Award Date or within one (1) year
from the date the Shares are transferred to the Participant, the Participant shall, within ten (10) days of disposition, notify
the Committee (or its delegee) in order that any income realized as a result of such disposition can be properly reported by the
Company on IRS forms W-2 or 1099.
6.10
Shareholder
Rights

underlying Shares, and no other rights as a shareholder until after the exercise of the Options and the issuance of the underlying
Shares.

of Restricted Stock
. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan, the Committee, at any time and from time to time, may

Except as provided in this Article VII and subject to the limitation in the next sentence, the Shares of Restricted Stock granted
hereunder may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated until the termination of the
applicable Period of Restriction or upon earlier satisfaction of other conditions as specified by the Committee in its sole discretion
and set forth in the Agreement. All rights with respect to the Restricted Stock granted to a Participant under the Plan shall be
exercisable during his lifetime only by such Participant or his guardian or legal representative.
7.4
Other
Restrictions
. The Committee shall impose such other restrictions on any Shares of Restricted Stock granted pursuant to the
Plan as it may deem advisable including, without limitation, restrictions under applicable federal or state securities laws, and
may legend the certificates representing Restricted Stock to give appropriate notice of such restrictions or otherwise denote the
Restricted Stock as restricted, if issued in book-entry or electronic form.
7.5
Certificate
Legend
. In addition to any other legends placed on certificates, or to which Shares of Restricted Stock issued in book-entry
or electronic form are made subject, pursuant to Section 7.4, any Award of Restricted Stock issued in book-entry or electronic
form shall be subject to the following legend, and any certificates representing shares of Restricted Stock granted pursuant to
the Plan shall bear the following legend:
The sale or other transfer of the shares of stock
represented by this certificate, whether voluntary, involuntary, or by operation of law, is subject to certain restrictions on
transfer set forth in the Glen Burnie Bancorp 2019 Equity Incentive Plan, in the rules and administrative procedures adopted pursuant
to such Plan, and in any outstanding award agreement. A copy of the Plan, such rules and procedures, and such outstanding award
agreement may be obtained from the Corporate Secretary of Glen Burnie Bancorp.
7.6
Removal
of Restrictions
. Except as otherwise provided in this Article VII, the Agreement, or applicable law or regulation, Shares of
Restricted Stock covered by each Restricted Stock Award made under the Plan shall become freely transferable by the Participant
after the last day of the Period of Restriction, and, where applicable, after a determination of the satisfaction or achievement
of any applicable Performance Goal(s). Once the Shares are released from the restrictions, the Participant shall be entitled to
have the legend required by Section 7.5 removed from his Stock certificate or similar notation removed from such Shares if issued
in book-entry or electronic form.
7.7
Voting
Rights
. During the Period of Restriction, Participants holding Shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder may exercise full
voting rights with respect to those Shares.
7.8
Dividends
and Other Distributions
. During the Period of Restriction, all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to Shares
of Restricted Stock (whether in cash, property or Shares) shall be registered in the name of the recipient of the Restricted Stock
Award and held by the Company until payable or forfeited pursuant to the terms of the Award. Such dividends and other distributions
shall be subject to the same restrictions on transferability and vesting as the Shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which
they were paid and shall, to the extent vested, be paid when and to the extent the underlying Shares of Restricted Stock are vested
and freed of restrictions (subject to any delay in payment required by Code Section 409A, if applicable). The Committee is expressly
authorized to provide for dividend accumulation that results in deferred compensation covered by Code Section 409A, as well as
dividend accumulation that does not result in deferred compensation covered by Code Section 409A.
ARTICLE VIII
Restricted Stock Units
8.1
Grant
of Restricted Stock Units
. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan, the Committee, at any time and from time to time,
may grant Restricted Stock Units under the Plan (with one Unit representing one Share) to such Key Employees, Non-Employee Directors,
Consultants or Advisors and in such amounts as it shall determine. Participants receiving Restricted Stock Unit Awards are not
required to pay the Company therefor (except for applicable tax withholding) other than the rendering of services. The Committee
is expressly authorized to grant Restricted Stock Units that are deferred compensation covered by Code Section 409A, as well as
Restricted Stock Units that are not deferred compensation covered by Code Section 409A.
8.2
Restricted
Stock Unit Agreement
. Each Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be evidenced by an Agreement that shall specify the Period of
Restriction, the number of Restricted Stock Units granted, and if applicable, any Performance Period and Performance Goal(s), and
such other provisions as the Committee shall determine.
A participant holding Restricted Stock Units
shall have no right to deemed dividends or other distributions with respect to such Restricted Stock Units unless the Committee
provides otherwise in the Agreement. The Committee may provide in the Agreement for deemed dividends or distributions with respect
to Restricted Stock Units, provided that any such deemed dividends or distributions shall be subject to the same restrictions,
vesting and payment as the Restricted Stock Units to which they are attributable and provided further that any such deemed dividends
or distributions may be accumulated but not paid unless and until the Period of Restriction applicable to the Restricted Stock
Units has ended and any applicable Performance Goals have been met (subject to any delay in payment required by Code Section 409A,
if applicable). A Participant holding Restricted Stock Units shall have no right to vote the Shares represented by such Restricted
Stock Units unless and until the Participant actually receives such Shares.
8.3
Payment
after Lapse of Restrictions
. Subject to the provisions of the Agreement, upon the lapse of restrictions with respect to a Restricted
Stock Unit, the Participant is entitled to receive, without any payment to the Company (other than required tax withholding), an
amount (the “RSU Value”) equal to the product of multiplying (a) the number of Shares equal to the number of Restricted
Stock Units with respect to which the restrictions lapse by (b) the Fair Market Value per Share on the date the restrictions lapse.
The Agreement may provide for payment of
the RSU Value at the time of the lapse of restrictions or, on an elective or non-elective basis, for payment of the RSU Value at
a later date, adjusted (if so provided in the Agreement) from the date of the lapse of restrictions based on an interest, dividend
equivalent, earnings, or other basis (including deemed investment of the RSU Value in Shares) set out in the Agreement (the “adjusted
RSU Value”).
Payment of the RSU Value or adjusted RSU
Value to the Participant shall be made in Shares, in cash or a combination thereof as determined by the Committee, either at the
time of the Award or thereafter, and as provided in the Agreement. To the extent payment of the RSU Value or adjusted RSU Value
to the Participant is made in Shares, such Shares shall be valued at the Fair Market Value on the date the restrictions therefor
lapse in the case of an immediate payment or at the Fair Market Value on the date of settlement in the event of an elective or
non-elective delayed payment. The Committee may specify in a Restricted Stock Unit Agreement that the Shares, which are delivered
upon payment of the RSU Value or adjusted RSU Value may be Restricted Stock pursuant to Article VII and subject to such further
restrictions and vesting as provided in the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement.
8.4
Nontransferability
of Restricted Stock Units
. No Restricted Stock Unit granted under the Plan, and no right to receive payment in connection therewith,
may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than upon the death of the Participant
in accordance with Section 17.11. Further, all Restricted Stock Units, and rights in connection therewith, granted to a Participant
under the Plan shall be exercisable during his lifetime only by such Participant or his guardian or legal representative.

a SAR (the “SAR Exercise Price”) shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Award Date.
If the exercisability of a SAR is subject solely to time-based conditions, the length of such period of time shall not be less
than one year, subject to applicable provisions regarding accelerated vesting.
9.3
Exercisability
of SARs
. SARs may be exercised upon whatever terms and conditions the Committee, in its sole discretion, imposes upon such

Other
Conditions Applicable to SARs
. In no event shall the term of any SAR granted under the Plan exceed ten (10) years from the
Award Date. A SAR may be exercised only when the Fair Market Value of a Share exceeds the SAR Exercise Price. A SAR shall be exercised
by delivery to the Committee (or its delegee) of a written notice of exercise in the form (which may be electronic) prescribed
by the Committee (or its delegee).
9.5
Payment
after Exercise of SARs
. Subject to the provisions of the Agreement, upon the exercise of a SAR, the Participant is entitled
to receive, without any payment to the Company therefor (except for required tax withholding), an amount (the “SAR Value”)
equal to the product of multiplying (i) the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised by (ii) an amount equal
to the excess of (A) the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of exercise of the SAR over (B) the SAR Exercise Price.
Payment of the SAR Value to the Participant
shall be made at the time of exercise in Shares, in cash or in a combination thereof as determined by the Committee. To the extent
payment of the SAR Value to the Participant is made in Shares, such Shares shall be valued at the Fair Market Value on the date
of exercise. The Committee may specify in a SAR Agreement that the Shares which are delivered upon payment of the SAR Value may
be Restricted Stock pursuant to Article VII and subject to such further restrictions and vesting as provided in the SAR Agreement.
9.6
Nontransferability
of SARs
. No SAR granted under the Plan, and no right to receive payment in connection therewith, may be sold, transferred,
pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than upon the death of the Participant in accordance with Section

shall have no right to dividend equivalents with respect to such Performance Units unless the Committee provides otherwise in the
Agreement. The Committee may provide in the Agreement for dividend equivalents with respect to Performance Units, provided that
any such dividend equivalents shall be subject to the same restrictions, vesting and payment as the Performance Units to which
they are attributable and provided further that any such dividend equivalents may be accumulated but not paid unless and until
the applicable Performance Goals have been met (subject to any delay in payment required by Code Section 409A, if applicable).
A Participant holding Performance Units shall have no right to vote the Shares represented by such Performance Units unless and
until the Participant actually receives such Shares.

in a subplan of the Plan that is incorporated by reference into an Agreement. The Committee is expressly authorized to grant Performance
Cash Awards that are deferred compensation covered by Code Section 409A, as well as Performance Cash Awards that are not deferred

Due to Retirement
. Unless otherwise provided in the Agreement, in the event that a Participant terminates his employment or
service with the Company or one of its Subsidiaries due to retirement (as defined in such applicable rules or policy of the Company
in effect at the time), then, provided no Cause exists to terminate such Participant’s employment or service, (a) all Options
or Stock Appreciation Rights held by the Participant that are not already vested or exercisable shall be automatically vested and
exercisable, (b) any remaining Period of Restriction applicable to the unvested portion of each Award of Restricted Stock or Restricted

of any or all of the unvested portion of each Award held by the Participant and provide for such vesting as its deems appropriate.
12.4
Termination

Article
XIII
Change in Capital Structure
13.1
Effect
of Change in Capital Structure
. In the event of a stock dividend, stock split or combination of shares, spin-off, recapitalization
or merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation, or other change in the Company’s capital stock (including, but
not limited to, the creation or issuance to shareholders generally of rights, options or warrants for the purchase of common stock
or preferred stock of the Company), the number and kind of Shares or securities of the Company to be issued under the Plan (under
outstanding Awards and Awards to be granted in the future), the Option Price of Options and/or SAR Exercise Price of SARs, the
annual limits on and the aggregate number and kind of Shares for which Awards thereafter may be made, and other relevant provisions
shall be proportionately, equitably and appropriately adjusted by the Committee, whose determination shall be binding on all persons.
If the adjustment would produce fractional shares with respect to any Award, the Committee may adjust appropriately the number
of shares covered by the Award so as to eliminate the fractional shares. Where an Award being adjusted is an ISO or is subject
to or falls under an exemption from Code Section 409A, the adjustment shall also be effected so as to comply with Code Section
424(a) and not to constitute a modification within the meaning of Code Section 424(h) or Code Section 409A, as applicable.
13.2
Authority
.
Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Committee may take the foregoing actions without the consent of
any Participant, and the Committee’s determination shall be conclusive and binding on all persons for all purposes.
13.3
Manner
of Adjustment
. Adjustments made by the Committee pursuant to this Article XIII to outstanding Awards shall be made as appropriate
to maintain favorable tax and/or accounting treatment.
ARTICLE XIV
Change of Control
14.1
Effect
of Change of Control
. In the event of a Change of Control of the Company, the Committee, as constituted before such Change
of Control, in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Participant, may, as to any outstanding Award, either at the
time the Award is made or any time thereafter, take any one or more of the following actions: (i) provide for the purchase, settlement
or cancellation of any such Award by the Company, for an amount of cash equal to the amount which could have been obtained upon
the exercise of such Award or realization of such Participant’s rights had such Award been currently exercisable or payable;
(ii) make such adjustment to any such Award then outstanding as the Committee deems appropriate to reflect such Change of Control
and to retain the economic value of the Award; or (iii) cause any such Award then outstanding to be assumed, or new rights substituted
therefor, by the acquiring or surviving corporation in such Change of Control. Where an Award is subject to or falls under an exemption
from Code Section 409A, this Article XIV will be applied in a manner so as to comply with Code Section 409A or to maintain the
exemption from Code Section 409A, as applicable.
14.2
Acceleration
Principles in the Event of a Change of Control
. The Committee may provide in each applicable Award Agreement or any subplan
governing an Award for acceleration of the vesting, delivery and exercisability of, and the lapse of vesting restrictions with
respect to, an Award, and for the replacement of a stock-settled Award with a cash-settled Award, in connection with a Change of
Control.
(a)
Awards
Subject to Time-Based Vesting
. In the event of a Change of Control, any Award for which exercise or vesting is subject solely
to time-based conditions shall become fully vested without regard to any other terms of the Award but only if either (1) the successor
company does not assume, convert, continue, or otherwise replace the Award on proportionate and equitable terms or (2) the successor
company does assume, convert, continue, or otherwise replace the Award on proportionate and equitable terms and the Participant
is terminated without cause on or within twenty-four (24) months following the Change of Control.
(b)
Awards
Subject to Performance-Based Vesting
. In the event of a Change of Control prior to the end of any Performance Period, the unvested
portion of any Award held by a Participant that is subject to achievement or satisfaction of any Performance Goal(s) during such
Performance Period shall be forfeited to the Company.
ARTICLE XV
Amendment, Modification, and Substitution
of Awards
15.1
Amendment,
Modification and Substitution
. Subject to the terms and provisions and within the limitations of the Plan, the Committee may
amend or modify the terms of any outstanding Award or accelerate the vesting thereof. In addition, the Committee may cancel or
accept the surrender of outstanding Awards (to the extent not yet exercised) granted under the Plan or outstanding awards granted
under any other equity plan of the Company and authorize the granting of new Awards pursuant to the Plan in substitution therefor
so long as the new or substituted awards do not specify a lower exercise price than the cancelled or surrendered Awards or awards,
and otherwise the new Awards may be of a different type than the cancelled or surrendered Awards or awards, may specify a longer
term than the cancelled or surrendered Awards or awards, may provide for more rapid vesting and exercisability than the cancelled
or surrendered Awards or awards, and may contain any other provisions that are authorized by the Plan. The Committee shall continue
to have the authority to amend or modify the terms of any outstanding Award after March 13, 2029, provided that no amendment or
modification will extend the original term of the Award beyond that set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, however, but subject to Article XIV, no amendment or modification of an Award, shall, without the consent of the
Participant, adversely affect the rights or obligations of the Participant. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary,
the Committee shall not amend, modify, or substitute an Award in a manner that violates Code Section 409A, or causes an Award that
previously qualified for an exemption from Section 409A to become subject to Code Section 409A, and the Committee shall not amend,
modify, or substitute an Award that satisfies the requirements of Rule 16b-3 in a manner that causes any exemption pursuant to
Rule 16b-3 to become no longer available.
15.2
Option
and SAR Repricing
. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, neither the Committee nor the Board shall have
the right or authority, without obtaining shareholder approval, to amend or modify the Option Price of any outstanding Option or
the SAR Exercise Price of any outstanding SAR, or to cancel an outstanding Option or SAR, at a time when the Option Price or SAR
Exercise Price, as applicable, is greater than the Fair Market Value of a Share in exchange for cash, another Award, or other securities,
except in connection with a corporate transaction involving the Company in accordance with Article XIII or Article XIV.
ARTICLE XVI
Termination, Amendment and Modification
of the Plan
16.1
Termination,
Amendment and Modification
. At any time and from time to time, the Board may terminate, amend, or modify the Plan. Such amendment
or modification may be without shareholder approval except to the extent that such approval is required by the Code, pursuant to
the rules under Section 16 of the Exchange Act, by any national securities exchange or system on which the Stock is then listed
or reported, by any regulatory body having jurisdiction with respect thereto or under any other applicable laws, rules or regulations.
16.2
Awards
Previously Granted
. No termination, amendment or modification of the Plan other than pursuant to Article XIII or Article XIV
shall in any manner adversely affect any Award theretofore granted under the Plan, without the written consent of the Participant.
ARTICLE XVII
General
17.1
Applicable
Withholding Taxes
. Each Participant shall agree, as a condition of receiving an Award, to pay to the Company, or make arrangements
satisfactory to the Company regarding the payment of, all applicable federal, state and local taxes (including the Participant’s
FICA obligation) required by law to be withheld with respect to any grant, exercise, or payment made under or as a result of the
Plan. Until the applicable withholding taxes have been paid or arrangements satisfactory to the Company have been made, no stock
certificates (or, in the case of Restricted Stock, no stock certificates free of a restrictive legend) shall be issued to the Participant
and no issuance in book-entry or electronic form (or, in the case of Restricted Stock, no issuance in book-entry or electronic
form free of a restrictive legend or notation) shall be made for the Participant. As an alternative to making a cash payment to
the Company to satisfy applicable withholding tax obligations, Participants may elect or the Committee may require Participants
to satisfy the withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold Shares of Stock having a Fair Market
Value equal to the amount required to be withheld, or by delivering to the Company Shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal
to the amount required to be withheld. The value of any Shares so withheld or delivered shall be based on the Fair Market Value
of the Shares on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. All elections by Participants shall be irrevocable
and be made in writing and in such manner as determined by the Committee (or its delegee) in advance of the day that the transaction
becomes taxable.
17.2
Requirements
of Law
. The granting of Awards and the issuance of Shares of Stock under this Plan shall be subject to all applicable laws,
rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or self-regulatory organizations as may be required.
17.3
Effect
of Plan
. The establishment of the Plan shall not confer upon any Key Employee, Non-Employee Director, Consultant or Advisor
any legal or equitable right against the Company, a Subsidiary or the Committee, except as expressly provided in the Plan. The
Plan does not constitute an inducement or consideration for the employment or service of any Key Employee, Non-Employee Director,
Consultant or Advisor, nor is it a contract between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any Key Employee, Non-Employee Director,
Consultant or Advisor. Participation in the Plan shall not give any Key Employee, Non-Employee Director, Consultant or Advisor
any right to be engaged or retained in the service of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. No Key Employee, Non-Employee Director,
Consultant or Advisor shall have rights as a shareholder of the Company prior to the date Shares are issued to him pursuant to
the Plan.
17.4
Creditors
.
The interests of any Participant under the Plan or any Agreement are not subject to the claims of creditors and may not, in any
way, be assigned, alienated or encumbered.
17.5
Successors
.
All obligations of the Company under the Plan, with respect to Awards granted hereunder, shall be binding on any successor to the
Company, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise,
of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company.
17.6
Securities
Law Restrictions
.
The Committee may require each Participant purchasing or acquiring Shares pursuant to an Option or
other Award to represent to and agree with the Company in writing that such Participant is acquiring the Shares for investment
and not with a view to the distribution thereof. All Shares delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such stock-transfer orders
and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations, and other requirements of the SEC, any
national securities exchange or system on which the Stock is then listed or reported, and any applicable federal or state securities
laws, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such
restrictions or otherwise denote the Shares as being subject to such restrictions, if issued in book-entry or electronic form.
No Shares shall be issued hereunder unless the Company shall have determined that such issuance is in compliance with, or pursuant
to an exemption from, all applicable federal and state securities laws.
17.7
Governing
Law
. The Plan, and all Agreements hereunder, shall be construed and administered in accordance with and governed by the laws
of the State of Maryland and the intention of the Company is that ISOs granted under the Plan qualify as such under Code Section
422. The Plan and Awards are subject to all present and future applicable provisions of the Code. If any provision of the Plan
or an Award conflicts with any such Code provision, the Committee shall cause the Plan to be amended, and shall modify the Award,
so as to comply, or if for any reason amendments cannot be made, that provision of the Plan or the Award shall be void and of no
effect.
17.8
Severability
.
In the event any provision of the Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not
affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had
not been included.
17.9
Unfunded
Status of Plan
. The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive and deferred compensation.
With respect to any payments as to which a Participant has a fixed and vested interest but which are not yet made to a Participant
by the Company, nothing contained herein shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general unsecured
creditor of the Company.
17.10
Share
Certificates and Book Entry
. To the extent that the Plan provides for issuance of stock certificates to represent shares of
Stock, the issuance may be effected on a non-certificated basis to the extent permitted by applicable law and the applicable rules
of any national securities exchange or system on which the Stock is then listed or reported. Notwithstanding any provision of the
Plan to the contrary, in its discretion the Committee may satisfy any obligation to deliver Shares represented by stock certificates
by delivering Shares in book-entry or electronic form. If the Company issues any Shares in book-entry or electronic form that are
subject to terms, conditions and restrictions on transfer, a notation shall be made in the records of the transfer agent with respect
to any such Shares describing all applicable terms, conditions and restrictions on transfer. In the case of Restricted Stock granted
under the Plan, such notation shall be substantially in the form of the legend contained in Section 7.5.
17.11
Beneficiary
Designations
. A Participant may designate a Beneficiary to receive any Options or SARs that may be exercised after his death
or to receive any other Award that may be paid after his death, as provided for in the Agreement. Such designation and any change
or revocation of such designation shall be made in writing in the form and manner prescribed by the Committee (or its delegee).
In the event that the designated Beneficiary dies prior to the Participant, or in the event that no Beneficiary has been designated,
any Awards that may be exercised or paid following the Participant’s death shall be transferred or paid in accordance with
the Participant’s will or the laws of descent and distribution. If the Participant and his Beneficiary shall die in circumstances
that cause the Committee (or its delegee), in its discretion, to be uncertain which shall have been the first to die, the Participant
shall be deemed to have survived the Beneficiary.
17.12
Electronic
Transmissions and Records
. Subject to limitations under applicable law, the Committee (and its delegee) is authorized in its
discretion to issue Awards and/or to deliver and accept notices, elections, consents, designations and/or other forms or communications
to or from Participants by electronic or similar means, including, without limitation, transmissions through e-mail or specialized
software, recorded messages on electronic telephone systems, and other permissible methods, on such basis and for such purposes
as it determines from time to time, and all such communications will be deemed to be “written” for purposes of the
Plan.
17.13
Clawback
.
All Awards granted under the Plan (whether vested or unvested) shall be subject to such recovery or clawback as may be required
pursuant to any applicable federal or other law or regulation, any applicable listing standard of any national securities exchange
or system on which the Stock is then listed or reported or the terms of the Company’s recoupment, clawback or similar policy
as such may be in effect from time to time, which could in certain circumstances require repayment or forfeiture of Awards or any
Shares or other cash or property received with respect to the Awards (including any value received from a disposition of the Shares
acquired upon payment of the Awards). In addition, and to the extent permitted by law, the Committee may provide in the Agreement
for a Participant to repay to the Company the cash value of any Shares acquired in connection with the payment, vesting or exercise
of an Award under the Plan if such payment, vesting or exercise occurred within 6 months prior to the termination of the Participant’s
employment for any reason other than death, Disability or retirement (as defined in such applicable rules or policy of the Company
in effect at the time).
17.14
Banking
Regulatory Provision
. All Awards shall be subject to any condition, limitation or prohibition under any financial institution
regulatory policy or rule to which the Company or any subsidiary thereof is subject.
ARTICLE XVIII
Omnibus Code Section 409A Provision
18.1
Intent
of Awards
. It is intended that Awards that are granted under the Plan shall be exempt from treatment as “deferred compensation”
subject to Code Section 409A unless otherwise specified by the Committee. Towards that end, all Awards under the Plan are intended
to contain such terms as will qualify the Awards for an exemption from Code Section 409A unless otherwise specified by the Committee.
The terms of the Plan and all Awards granted hereunder shall be construed consistent with the foregoing intent. Notwithstanding
any provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Committee may amend any outstanding Award without the Participant’s consent
if, as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, such amendment is required either to (a) confirm exemption under Code
Section 409A, (b) comply with Code Section 409A or (c) prevent the Participant from being subject to any tax or penalty under Code
Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates nor the Committee shall be
liable to the Participant or any other person or entity if an Award that is subject to Code Section 409A or the Participant or
any other person or entity is otherwise subject to any additional tax, interest or penalty under Code Section 409A. Each Participant
is solely responsible for the payment of any tax liability (including any taxes, penalties and interest that may arise under Code
Section 409A) that may result from an Award.
18.2
409A
Awards
. The Committee may grant an Award under the Plan that is subject to Code Section 409A and is intended to comply with
Code Section 409A (a “409A Award”). The terms of such 409A Award, including any authority by the Company and the rights
of the Participant with respect to such 409A Award, will be subject to such rules and limitations and shall be interpreted in a
manner as to comply with Code Section 409A.
18.3
Time
of Payment
. The time and form of payment of a 409A Award, including application of a six-month delay for specified employees
in certain circumstances, shall be as set forth in the applicable Agreement. A 409A Award may only be paid in connection with a
separation from service, a fixed time, death, Disability, a Change of Control or an unforeseeable emergency within the meaning
of Code Section 409A. The time of distribution of the 409A Award must be fixed by reference to the specified payment event. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if the time of distribution of the 409A Award is not set forth in the applicable Agreement, then the time of distribution
of the 409A Award shall be within two and one-half (2½) months of the end of the later of the calendar year or the fiscal
year of the Company or Affiliate that employs the Participant in which the 409A Award becomes vested and no longer subject to a
substantial risk of forfeiture within the meaning of Code Section 409A. For purposes of Code Section 409A, each installment payment
will be treated as the entitlement to a single payment.
18.4
Acceleration
or Deferral
. The Company shall have no authority to accelerate or delay or change the form of any distributions relating to
409A Awards except as permitted under Code Section 409A.
18.5
Distribution
Requirements
. Any distribution of a 409A Award triggered by a Participant’s termination of employment shall be made only
at the time that the Participant has had a separation from service within the meaning of Code Section 409A. A separation from service
shall occur where it is reasonably anticipated that no further services will be performed after that date or that the level of
bona fide services the Participant will perform after that date (whether as an employee or independent contractor of the Company
or an Affiliate) will permanently decrease to less than twenty percent (20%) of the average level of bona fide services performed
over the immediately preceding thirty-six (36) month period. Continued services solely as a director of the Company or an Affiliate
shall not prevent a separation from service from occurring by an employee as permitted by Code Section 409A.
18.6
Scope
and Application of this Provision
. For purposes of this Article XVIII, references to a term or event (including any authority
or right of the Company or a Participant) being “permitted” under Code Section 409A means that the term or event will
not cause the Participant to be deemed to be in constructive receipt of compensation relating to the 409A Award prior to the distribution
of cash, Shares or other property or to be liable for payment of interest or a tax penalty under Code Section 409A.
