Leadership Transition

Transition. You will continue to serve as Co-President of the Bank and Senior Executive Vice President of CBSI (“Bank Co-President”) through July 1, 2027 or such other mutually agreed date (the “Transition Date”). During the period in which you serve as Bank Co-President, you shall be eligible to receive a 2027 equity grant (the “2027 Grant”) with a target grant date fair value no less than your 2026 grant. Effective as of the day following the Transition Date, you will (i) begin serving as a senior advisor to the Company (“Advisor”) and (ii) cease serving in any director, officer, manager, committee member or other positions that you hold with the Company and its subsidiaries (the “Transition”).

Advisor Compensation. During the period in which you serve as Advisor, you shall continue to (i) be eligible to participate in the health and welfare benefit plans maintained by the Company, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, (ii) vest in your outstanding equity awards in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan and award agreements, and (iii) receive base salary at your annual rate in effect as of the Transition Date, payable in accordance with the Bank’s regular payroll practices. For the avoidance of doubt, you shall be eligible for a payout, if any, under the Company’s annual incentive plan for your service as Bank Co-President during 2027, determined based on actual performance. Such payout shall be pro-rated to reflect your service through the Transition Date.

You hereby acknowledge that the Transition and the Retirement shall not constitute “Good Reason” for purposes of any agreement with, or plan maintained by, the Company, including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Severance Plan, the Participation Agreement (as defined below), the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan of CBSI, and any equity awards granted thereunder. In addition, the Company hereby acknowledges that the Retirement shall constitute a “qualifying retirement” for purposes of your outstanding equity awards (including the 2027 Grant), so long as Cause does not then exist.
