CENIT BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not
include all of the disclosures and notes required by generally accepted
accounting principles. In the opinion of the management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. The results of operations for the three month
periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 are not necessarily indicative of results
that may be expected for the entire year or any interim periods. Certain
previously reported amounts have been reclassified to agree with the current
presentation. The interim financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the December 31, 1997 consolidated financial statements of CENIT Bancorp,
Inc. (the "Company").
Note 2 - Per Share Data
On March 24, 1998, the Company declared a three-for-one stock split. All
financial data included in this Form 10-Q reflects the effect of the stock
split.
The Company adopted FAS 128, Earnings per Share, on December 31, 1997. The
Company changed the method used to compute earnings per share and restated all
prior periods.
Basic earnings per share is calculated using weighted average shares
outstanding. For the three month period ended March 31, 1998, weighted average
shares used to compute basic earnings per share were 4,729,096. For the three
months ended March 31, 1997, weighted average shares used to compute basic
earnings per share were 4,914,198.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adding common stock equivalents
to the weighted average shares outstanding. For the three month period ended
March 31, 1998, weighted average shares used to compute diluted earnings per
share were 4,868,040. For the three months ended March 31, 1997, weighted
average shares used to compute diluted earnings per share were 5,052,138.
The unallocated common shares held by the Company's Employee Stock
Ownership Plan are excluded from the weighted average shares used to calculate
basic and diluted earnings per share.
Note 3 - Comprehensive Income
On January 1, 1998, the Company adopted FAS 130, Reporting Comprehensive
Income. FAS 130 establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive
income and its components. The adoption of FAS 130 did not have a material
impact on the Company. All of the Company's other comprehensive income relates
to net unrealized gains (losses) on available for sale securities.

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
General
The Company's business currently consists of the business of CENIT Bank,
FSB and CENIT Bank (formerly Princess Anne Bank) (the "Banks"). Effective
February 6, 1998, Princess Anne Bank changed its name to CENIT Bank. On March
24, 25, and 26, 1998, the Boards of Directors of the Banks, as well as the Board
of Directors of the Company, as the sole shareholder of the Banks, voted to
merge CENIT Bank into CENIT Bank, FSB. Following the merger, which is expected
to be completed during the second quarter of 1998, the Company will cease to be
regulated by the Federal Reserve, and will be a registered savings and loan
holding company regulated pursuant to the Homeowner's Loan Act, as amended (the
"HOLA"). As such, the Company will be subject to the regulation, examination,
supervision and reporting requirements of the Office of Thrift Supervision
("OTS").
The principal business of the Banks consists of attracting retail deposits
from the general public in their market areas through a variety of deposit
products and investing these funds in commercial, real estate and consumer
loans. The Banks also invest in mortgage-backed certificates, securities issued
by the U.S. Treasury and U.S. Government agencies and other investments
permitted by applicable laws and regulations.
Financial Condition Of The Company
Total Assets
At March 31, 1998, the Company had total assets of $734.4 million compared
to $718.1 million at December 31, 1997.
Securities Available for Sale
Securities available for sale totaled $138.0 million at March 31, 1998 and
are comprised of U. S. Treasury securities, other U. S. Government agency
securities, and mortgage-backed certificates. The net decrease of $804,000 from
December 31, 1997 resulted primarily from $10.0 million of repayments, $4.0
million of proceeds from maturities, $17.8 million of proceeds from the sales of
securities, and $32.9 million in purchases of securities available for sale. It
has been the Company's experience that most mortgage-backed certificates prepay
substantially in advance of their scheduled amortizations. Excluding the
mortgage-backed certificates purchased or sold during the first three months of
1998, the Company experienced amortizations or prepayments on its
mortgage-backed certificate portfolio at an annualized rate of approximately 40%
during the first quarter of 1998.
Loans
The balance of net loans held for investment increased from $486.5 million
at December 31, 1997 to $519.7 million at March 31, 1998. This increase resulted
primarily from an increase in adjustable-rate residential mortgage loans of
$31.1 million. For the three months ended March 31, 1998, loan originations
totaled $53.5 million, loan purchases totaled $48.8 million, and total principal
reductions totaled $66.8 million. Loan purchases include the bulk purchase of
$46.1 million of adjustable-rate residential mortgage loans during the first
quarter of 1998 with an initial yield of 6.70%. The collateral for these bulk
purchased loans is located primarily outside the Company's primary market area.
During the first quarter of 1998, amortizations or prepayments of conventional
1- to 4-family residential mortgage loans were approximately 40% on an
annualized basis.

one- to four-family permanent mortgage loans, certain credit card loans, and
matured loans for which the borrowers are still making required monthly payments

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 1998 and
March 31, 1997.
General
The Company's pre-tax income for the three months ended March 31, 1998 was
$2.3 million compared to $1.6 million during the same period in the prior year.
This increase is primarily attributable to a $594,000 increase in other income,
a $3,000 increase in net interest income after provision for loan losses, and a
$29,000 decrease in other expenses. Included in other expenses for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 are $394,000 of expenses relating to the Company's
1997 proxy contest and other matters.
Net Interest Income
The Company's net interest income before provision for loan losses
increased by $57,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 as compared to that of
the previous year. This increase resulted from a $13,000 increase in interest
income, and a $44,000 decrease in interest expense.
Interest on the Company's portfolio of mortgage-backed certificates
decreased by $1.2 million from $2.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997
to $1.5 million for the comparable 1998 period. This decrease resulted primarily
from a $73.2 million decrease in the average balance of the portfolio. The
decrease in the average balance of mortgage- backed certificates was due
primarily to prepayments and sales of mortgage-backed certificates.
Interest on loans increased by $1.2 million in the quarter ended March 31,
1998 compared to the comparable 1997 period. This increase was primarily
attributable to a $69.7 million increase in the average balance of loans. The
yield on the Bank's loan portfolio decreased from 8.16% in the quarter ended
March 31, 1997 to 7.96% in the comparable 1998 period as purchased loans with
lower initial yields were added to the loan portfolio.
Interest on investment securities for the quarter ended March 31, 1998
decreased by $48,000 compared to the same period in 1997 primarily due to both a
$1.3 million decrease in the average balance of investment securities and a
decrease in the yield from 6.28% in the first quarter of 1997 to 6.04% in the
same period in 1998.
Dividends and other interest income increased by $116,000 during the first
quarter of 1998 compared to the same period in 1997. Most of the increase is
from interest on federal funds sold which increased by $96,000 due primarily to
an increase of $7.1 million in the average balance outstanding during the first
quarter of 1998 compared to the same period in 1997.
Interest on deposits increased by $46,000 in the quarter ended March 31,
1998 compared to the comparable 1997 period. The average balance of
interest-bearing deposits decreased by $763,000 in the first quarter of 1998
when compared to the same period in 1997 while the average cost of these
deposits for this period increased from 4.53% in 1997 to 4.58% in 1998.
The Company's interest on borrowings decreased by $90,000 in the quarter
ended March 31, 1998 compared to the comparable 1997 period. This decrease was
attributable to a $9.9 million decrease in the average balance of borrowings
offset by an increase of 11 basis points in the cost of these borrowings.
The Company's net interest margin increased from 3.24% for the quarter
ended March 31, 1997 to 3.26% for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, while the
Bank's interest rate spread decreased from 2.90% in the quarter ended March 31,
1997 to 2.82% in the comparable 1998 period. The Company's calculations of net
interest margin and interest rate spread include nonaccrual loans as
interest-earning assets.
Provision for Loan Losses
The Company's provision for loan losses increased by $54,000 to $204,000
for the three months ended March 31, 1998, compared to the same period in 1997.
Net loans charged off during the quarter ended March 31, 1998 were $189,000
compared to $57,000 in the comparable 1997 period.
14
<PAGE>
Other Income
Total other income increased from $971,000 in the quarter ended March 31,
1997 to $1.6 million in the comparable 1998 period.
Deposit fees increased by $120,000, primarily as the result of increases in
usage fees from the Company's automated teller network and increases in checking
account fees. Merchant processing fees increased by $166,000 from $227,000 in
the first quarter of 1997 to $393,000 in the first quarter of 1998 as the
Company continued to experience substantial growth in its merchant portfolio.
Brokerage fees recognized by CENIT Bank, FSB's commercial mortgage brokerage
subsidiary, increased by $177,000 to $181,000 during the first quarter of 1998
compared to $4,000 during the same period in 1997.
Other Expenses
Total other expenses decreased by $29,000 for the quarter ended March 31,
1998 compared to the comparable 1997 period. The quarter ended March 31, 1997
includes $394,000 of expenses relating to the Company's 1997 proxy contest and
other matters. These expenses resulted from proxy solicitation expenses and from
legal and other expenses related to investigations of possible violations of
banking and securities laws by entities outside the Company. Merchant processing
expenses increased, due to increased volume, by $171,000 to $361,000 in the
first quarter of 1998 compared to $190,000 in 1997's first quarter while
professional fees increased by $81,000 to $194,000 during the first quarter of
1998 compared to $113,000 during the same period in 1997.
Liquidity
The principal sources of funds for the Company for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 included $267.0 million in proceeds from FHLB advances and $31.8
million in proceeds from principal repayment, sales and maturities of securities
available for sale. Funds were used primarily to repay FHLB advances totaling
$254.0 million, to fund purchases of securities available for sale totaling
$32.9 million and to fund net increases in loans held for investment of $33.4
million.
The Company's liquidity could be impacted by a decrease in the renewals of
deposits or general deposit runoff. However, the Company has the ability to
raise deposits by conducting deposit promotions. In the event the Company
requires funds beyond its ability to generate them internally, the Company could
obtain additional advances from the FHLB. The Company could also obtain funds
through the sale of investment securities from its available for sale portfolio.
All savings institutions, including CENIT Bank, FSB, are required to
maintain an average daily balance of liquid assets equal to a certain percentage
of the sum of its average daily balance of net withdrawable deposit accounts and
borrowings payable in one year or less. The liquidity requirement may vary from
time to time (between 4% and 10%) depending upon economic conditions and savings
flows of all savings institutions. At the present time, the required liquid
asset ratio is 4.0%. CENIT Bank, FSB's liquid asset ratio was 9.3% and 8.8% at
March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively.

4. Duties of the Consultant.
A. At the request of retail account or consumer lending officers or
commercial or real estate lending officers of the Bank, the Consultant
shall meet with existing and prospective customers of CENIT, together
with one or more of the Bank's retail account or consumer lending
officers or commercial or real estate lending officers, in order to
encourage existing and prospective customers to continue to do or to
commence doing business with CENIT and to refer other prospective
customers to CENIT. The Consultant will not, either directly or
indirectly, discourage, or attempt to discourage, any existing or
prospective customer of CENIT from doing business with
2
<PAGE>
CENIT or encourage, or attempt to encourage, any existing or
prospective customer of CENIT to obtain financial services from any
competitor of CENIT. The Consultant shall, at all times, use his best
efforts to present a positive image for CENIT and to encourage all
existing and prospective customers to continue to do business with
CENIT and to expand the range of financial services that such
customers procure from CENIT.
B. The Consultant shall have no authority to enter into binding
agreements or commitments on behalf of CENIT and shall not represent
to any existing or prospective customer of CENIT that the Consultant
has any such authority. The Consultant shall refer any questions
concerning the willingness of CENIT to enter into a binding agreement
or commitment with any existing or prospective customer of CENIT to
senior management of CENIT.
C. Without in any way limiting or qualifying the duties and obligations
of the Consultant under the Non-Competition and Non-Disclosure
Agreement, the Consultant shall not initiate or participate, either
directly or indirectly, in any communications of any kind with any
financial analyst, underwriter, investment advisor, broker, investor,
shareholder or any other person concerning the financial condition or
performance of the Company, any actual or proposed shareholder
proposals or resolutions (whether binding or non-binding) or any
mergers or acquisitions plans or activities of the Company nor shall
the Consultant disclose any information about any such plans or
activities or speculate about the intentions of the Company in this
regard with any such person. In the event that the Consultant receives
any inquiries or other communications from any financial analyst,
underwriter, investment advisor, broker, investor, shareholder or any
other person concerning the financial condition or performance of the
Company, any actual or proposed shareholder proposals or resolutions,
or any mergers or acquisitions plans or activities of the Company, the
Consultant shall immediately refer such person to the President and
Chief Executive Officer of the Company and shall inform the President
and Chief Executive Officer of the Company of each such inquiry or
other communication so received.
D. The Consultant shall support management of CENIT and shall not make
any statements, whether public or private, or whether direct or
indirect, that are in any way critical or disparaging of the business
and affairs of CENIT. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Consultant shall support and vote, or cause to be
voted, all shares of common stock of the Company, whether now owned or
hereafter acquired, and whether owned directly or beneficially, by the
Consultant (the "Consultant's Shares") in favor of all matters
supported by the Board of Directors of the Company and with respect to
which the Board of Directors of the Company recommends that the
shareholders of the Company vote in favor. The Consultant acknowledges
and agrees that such matters shall include any proxy contests in which
the Company may become engaged including, without limitation, the
proxy contest in which the Company is presently involved, any
shareholder proposals or resolutions, any mergers or acquisition
transactions involving other community financial institutions in the
Company's market area, and any strategic alliances that the Company
may decide to pursue. Not less than ten (10) days before the date of
the annual meeting of shareholders of the Company and any other date
set for a vote of the shareholders at any regular
3
<PAGE>
or special meeting of the shareholders of the Company, the Consultant
shall deliver to the Company his completed, properly executed proxy
voting the Consultant's Shares in favor of all matters supported by
the Board of Directors of the Company and with respect to which the
Board of Directors recommends that the shareholders vote in favor. The
Consultant further agrees to take all appropriate action necessary to
cause any shares held by the Company's employee stock ownership plan
(the "CENIT ESOP") for the benefit of the Consultant to be voted in
favor of all matters supported by the Board of Directors of the
Company and with respect to which the Board of Directors recommends
that the shareholders vote in favor. For purposes of this Agreement,
the Consultant's Shares shall include all such shares in the CENIT
ESOP held for the benefit of the Consultant. In providing such support
of management and all matters supported by the Board of Directors,
however, the Consultant shall not be required to participate directly
in proxy solicitation efforts of the Company, although the Consultant
agrees to refer any financial analyst, underwriter, investment
advisor, broker, investor, shareholder or any other person requesting
information about any matter coming before the shareholders for a vote
to the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
E. In order to secure the performance of the obligation of the Consultant
to vote the Consultant's Shares in favor of any matter with respect to
which the Board of Directors of the Company recommends that the
shareholders of the Company vote in favor, the Consultant shall
execute an irrevocable proxy and power of attorney, in the form
attached to this Agreement as EXHIBIT B, naming the Company, acting
though its President and Chief Executive Officer, and its Senior Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer, as the Consultant's proxy and
attorney in fact, with full power of substitution, to vote the
Consultant's Shares in favor of all matters for which the Board of
Directors of the Company recommends that the shareholders of the
Company vote in favor. The Consultant affirmatively acknowledges and
agrees that such proxy shall be irrevocable and the power granted
thereby shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest for as long as
this Agreement remains in effect or the Consultant has any duties or
obligations to the Bank.
5. Compensation.
A. In consideration of the consulting services to be provided by the
Consultant pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, the Bank
shall pay to the Consultant during the term of this Agreement,
effective May 2, 1998, if the Consultant is not then in default under
this Agreement, compensation equal to $1,000 per month. All such
payments shall be payable in monthly, semimonthly or bi-weekly
installments in conformity with the Bank's personnel policy relating
to salaried employees and with all appropriate federal, state, and
local withholding and other deductions in accordance with such
policies. In the event of the death of the Consultant during the term
of this Agreement, and if the Consultant is not then in default under
this Agreement, the Bank shall continue to pay such amount to the
executor, administrator or legal representative of the Consultant for
the benefit of the Consultant's estate for a period of six (6) months
following the date of death. The Consultant acknowledges and agrees
that the payment by the Bank of the amount of $1,000 per month to the
Consultant shall be the total compensation payable by the Bank for the
4
<PAGE>
consulting services to be provided under this Agreement and that the
Bank shall have no duty or obligation to provide any other
compensation or benefits of any kind to the Consultant.
B. In addition to the compensation payable by the Bank to the Consultant
under Paragraph 5.A. above, the Bank shall also transfer, or cause to
be transferred, to the Consultant the title to the automobile most
recently used by the Consultant in connection with the Bank's
business. From and after the date of this Agreement, the Consultant
shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by the
Consultant in connection with the ownership, operation, and
maintenance of this automobile.
C. In connection with consulting services provided by the Consultant to
the Bank at the request of the Bank, if the Consultant is asked to
incur any expenses in connection with the provision of such consulting
services, the Bank will reimburse the Consultant for reasonable costs
and expenses directly incurred by the Consultant in providing any such
consulting services.
D. The Consultant shall continue to be entitled to exercise any stock
options for the purchase of shares of common stock of the Company
heretofore granted to the Consultant in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the grant pursuant to which such stock options were made
and the terms and conditions of the CENIT Stock Option Plan (the
"Option Plan"). The Consultant acknowledges and agrees that the
Consultant shall not be entitled to the award of any additional stock
options under the Option Plan or shares under the CENIT Management
Recognition Plan and Trust (the "MRP") and that the Consultant must
exercise any existing exercisable stock options held by the Consultant
before August 1, 1998, in accordance with the provisions of the Option
Plan. The shares of restricted stock previously awarded to the
Consultant under the MRP shall be forfeited to the Company upon the
date of execution of this Agreement because such shares are not fully
vested in the Consultant in accordance with the provisions of the
award of such shares and the MRP.
E. In the event of the default by the Consultant and the termination of
this Agreement as a consequence of such default, the termination shall
be treated as a termination "for cause" for purposes of the Option
Plan, and the right of the Consultant to exercise any stock options
held by the Consultant and not theretofore exercised shall be
extinguished. After the Consultant's service to CENIT is terminated
under this Agreement, the Consultant shall be entitled to
distributions of the benefits to which he is entitled under the CENIT
ESOP and the CENIT 401(k) Plan, which distributions shall be made in
accordance with and subject to the terms of these plans.
F. The compensation to be paid to the Consultant under this Agreement is
the exclusive compensation to be paid by the Bank for the consulting
services, and all rights to compensation, benefits, stock options, and
restricted stock, whether current or deferred, payable to the
Consultant under or in connection with the Employment Agreement are
hereby extinguished.
5
<PAGE>
G. The compensation to be paid to the Consultant under this Agreement is
expressly conditioned upon the full and faithful performance by the
Consultant of each of the duties and obligations of the Consultant
under this Agreement.
H. The Company and the Bank may withhold from any compensation and
benefits payable under this Agreement all federal and state or other
taxes as shall be required pursuant to any law or governmental
regulation or ruling.
I. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Paragraph 5, at any time
after April 1, 1999, the Consultant shall be entitled to terminate the
right to receive compensation under this Paragraph 5 and in
consideration thereof shall be released from the obligation not to
compete with CENIT under the Non-Competition and Non-Disclosure
Agreement but not from the obligation not to disclose CENIT
Confidential Information under the Non-Competition and Non-Disclosure
Agreement. The Consultant may exercise this right by delivering
written notice to CENIT at least thirty (30) days in advance of the
date on which the Consultant desires to terminate such right to
receive compensation.
6. Publicity. The Consultant and CENIT shall maintain in confidence the
provisions of this Agreement and shall not disclose the terms of this
Agreement to any other person except as provided in this paragraph. The
Consultant agrees that CENIT may disclose the terms of this Agreement
and/or the termination of the Employment Agreement to the extent that
disclosure is required by or deemed to be appropriate under applicable
federal or state banking or securities laws and regulations or in any
litigation to which CENIT may become a party and in which disclosure of the
terms of this Agreement is compelled. The Consultant and CENIT shall
mutually agree upon a statement to be released to the public concerning the
Consultant's resignation of his positions as a director and an officer of
the Bank and the Company and shall otherwise withhold comment on the
circumstances surrounding such resignation. The Consultant agrees that the
limitations imposed on CENIT by this paragraph shall become null and void
in the event of the termination of this Agreement following a breach of the
terms hereof by the Consultant.
7. Termination. CENIT shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement, in the
event of any breach or violation by the Consultant of either the terms of
this Agreement or the terms of the Non-Competition and Non-Disclosure
Agreement or in the event of any act or omission prior to or during the
term of this Agreement that would have permitted the Bank to terminate the
Employment Agreement for cause as provided therein. Before terminating this
Agreement, CENIT shall give the Consultant written notice of any breach or
violation of the Consultant's obligation to perform the consulting services
and the opportunity for a period of three (3) days to cure or remedy such
breach or violation to CENIT's satisfaction; provided, however, that CENIT
shall be under no obligation to give the Consultant such notice and
opportunity to cure if such breach or violation is, in CENIT's reasonable
judgment, not susceptible of being cured or remedied by the Consultant. In
the event of such termination, the obligation of CENIT to pay compensation
and other benefits to the Consultant under this Agreement shall terminate,
and CENIT thereupon shall be entitled to pursue all legal and
6
<PAGE>
equitable remedies available to it under this Agreement, or at law or in
equity, and any limitations imposed hereby upon CENIT's rights and remedies
shall be immediately terminated. The Consultant's duties and obligations
under the Non-Competition and Non-Disclosure Agreement shall survive any
such termination of this Agreement.
8. Release. In connection with the execution of this Agreement, the Consultant
shall execute and deliver to CENIT a Release of All Claims in the form
attached hereto as EXHIBIT C. In accordance with the provisions of the
federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act, such release contains a seven
day right of rescission for the benefit of the Consultant. This Agreement,
and the duties, obligations, and liabilities imposed upon CENIT hereunder,
are expressly made conditional upon the expiration of such seven-day
rescission period without the rescission of such release by the Consultant.
In the event of such rescission by the Consultant, the provisions of this
Agreement shall be null and void.
9. Notices. For the purposes of this Agreement, notices or other
communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall
be deemed to have been duly given when hand delivered to the party to whom
directed or mailed by United States certified mail, return receipt
requested, postage prepaid, addressed to such party at such party's address
last known by the party giving such notice. Each party shall advise the
other parties of the appropriate address to which notices should be sent.
Notices of change of address shall be effective only upon receipt. CENIT
hereby advises the Consultant that all notices to CENIT should be addressed
to CENIT Bancorp, Inc., 225 West Olney Road, Norfolk, Virginia 23510,
attention: President.
10. Modification - Waivers - Applicable Law. No provisions of this Agreement
may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or
discharge is agreed to in writing, signed by the Consultant and on behalf
of CENIT by such officers as may be specifically designated by the Board of
Directors of the Company. No waiver of any breach, condition or provision
of this Agreement by any party hereto at any time shall be deemed a waiver
of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any
prior or subsequent time. No agreements or representations, oral or
otherwise, express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof
have been made by any party which are not set forth expressly in this
Agreement. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of
this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of
Virginia.
11. Invalidity - Enforceability. The invalidity or enforceability of any
provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability
of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force
and effect. Any provision in this Agreement which is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability
without invalidating or affecting the remaining provisions hereof, and any
such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not
invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other
jurisdiction.

<PAGE>
12. Successor Rights. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
enforceable by the Consultant's personal or legal representatives,
executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and
legatees, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
Company, the Savings Bank, and the Bank and any successors thereto and any
present and future affiliates and subsidiaries thereof. If the Consultant
should die while any amounts would still be payable to the Consultant
hereunder, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be
paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to the Consultant's
legatee or other designee or, if there is no such designee, to the
Consultant's estate.
13. Compliance with Federal Statutes and Regulations. If the Consultant is
suspended and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the conduct
of the affairs of CENIT by a notice served under Section 8(e)(3) or (g)(1)
of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. Section 1818(e)(3) and
(g)(1)), CENIT's obligations to the Consultant under this Agreement shall
be suspended as of the date of service of any such notice unless stayed by
appropriate proceedings. If the charges in the notice are dismissed, CENIT
may in its discretion (i) pay the Consultant all or part of the
compensation withheld while its obligations under this Agreement were
suspended, and (ii) reinstate (in whole or in part) any of its obligations
which were suspended.
A. If the Consultant is removed and/or permanently prohibited from
participating in the conduct of CENIT's affairs by an order issued
under Section 8(e)(4) or (g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act
(12 U.S.C. Section 1818(e)(4) or (g)(1)), all obligations of CENIT
under this Agreement pertaining to CENIT shall terminate as of the
effective date of the order, but vested rights of the parties hereto
shall not be affected.
B. If either the Bank or the Savings Bank is in default (as defined in
Section 3(x)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act 12 U.S.C. Section
1813(x)(1)), all obligations under this Agreement shall terminate as
of the date of default, but this paragraph shall not affect any vested
rights of the parties hereto shall not be affected.
C. All obligations of CENIT under this Agreement shall be terminated,
except to the extent that it is determined that continuation of the
contract is necessary to the continued operation of the Bank (i) by
the appropriate federal banking agency, at the time the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation enters into an agreement to provide
assistance to or on behalf of either the Bank or the Savings Bank
under the authority contained in Section 13(c) of the Federal Deposit
Insurance Act; or (ii) by the appropriate federal banking agency, at
the time such agency approves a supervisory merger to resolve problems
related to operation of either the Bank or the Savings Bank or when
either the Bank or the Savings Bank is determined by such agency to be
in an unsafe or unsound condition; but vested rights of the parties
hereto shall not be affected.
14. Headings. Descriptive headings contained in this Agreement are for
convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or
construction of any provision hereof.

15. Legal Conflict. In the event of any conflict between any of the provisions

regulations, as such statutes or regulations are in effect as of the date

state chartered commercial bank (the "Bank").
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, the Consultant has heretofore served as a Director of and as
President and Chief Executive Officer of the Bank, and as a Director of the
Company, which is the sole stockholder of the Bank; and
WHEREAS, in such capacities the Consultant has become familiar with all
aspects of and information about (i) the business strategy and business plans of
the Bank, the Company, and the Savings Bank, the other wholly owned subsidiary
of the Company (the Bank, the Company, and the Savings Bank being sometimes
hereinafter referred to together as "CENIT"), (ii) the borrowers, depositors,
and other customers of CENIT, (iii) the marketing, loan pricing, and deposit
rate strategies of CENIT, and (iv) other similar confidential and proprietary
information concerning the business and affairs of CENIT (all such confidential
and proprietary information about the business and affairs of CENIT being
referred to herein as the "CENIT Confidential Information"); and
WHEREAS, by mutual agreement among the Consultant, the Bank, and the
Company, the Consultant has decided to resign as a director and officer of the
Bank and the Company and any subsidiaries of the Bank and the Company, and CENIT
has decided to retain the services of the Consultant as a consultant to CENIT on
and subject to terms and conditions set forth in a Consulting Agreement (the
"Consulting Agreement"), of even date herewith; and
WHEREAS, in consideration of the agreement of the Consultant not to compete
with CENIT and not to disclose the CENIT Confidential Information as set forth
herein, CENIT has agreed to pay the Consultant the amount described below.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises set forth herein,
the amount to be paid to the Consultant hereunder, and other good and valuable
consideration, the adequacy and receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the
Consultant and CENIT hereby agree as follows:

<PAGE>
2. Termination of Employment Agreement. The Consultant and the Bank are
parties to that certain Employment Agreement (the "Employment Agreement")
dated as of January 30, 1995. The Consultant and the Bank mutually agree
that the Employment Agreement is hereby terminated in all respects,
effective as of the date hereof, and that the respective rights, duties,
and obligations of the Consultant and CENIT shall be as set forth in this
Agreement, the Consulting Agreement, the exhibits thereto, and the Release.
3. Term. Unless earlier terminated pursuant to the provisions set forth in
this Agreement, the term of this Agreement shall be twenty-five (25) months
commencing as of the date of this Agreement and ending May 1, 2000;
provided, however, that the obligation of the Consultant under Paragraph
6.B. shall continue through May 1, 2001.
4. Duties of the Consultant. The Consultant shall have the duties and
obligations set forth in the Consulting Agreement and shall be subject to
the agreements, limitations and restrictions set forth herein.
5. Compensation.
A. The Consultant shall continue to receive compensation and benefits as
an employee of the Company through May 1, 1998, pursuant to the
provisions of the Consulting Agreement.
B. In consideration of the agreements of the Consultant set forth in this
Agreement, the Bank shall pay to the Consultant during the term of
this Agreement, effective May 2, 1998, if the Consultant is not then
in default under this Agreement, an amount equal to $13,000 per month.
All such payments shall be payable in monthly, semimonthly or
bi-weekly installments in conformity with the Bank's personnel policy
relating to salaried employees. In the event of the death of the
Consultant during the term of this Agreement, and if the Consultant is
not then in default under this Agreement, the Bank shall continue to
pay such amount to the executor, administrator or legal representative
of the Consultant for the benefit of the Consultant's estate for a
period of one (1) month following the date of death. The Consultant
acknowledges and agrees that the payment by the Bank of the amount of
$13,000 per month to the Consultant shall be the total compensation
payable by the Bank for the agreements of the Consultant set forth in
this Agreement and that the Bank shall have no duty or obligation to
provide any other compensation or benefits of any kind to the
Consultant under this Agreement.
C. The compensation to be paid to the Consultant under this Agreement is
expressly conditioned upon the full and faithful performance by the
Consultant of each of the agreements of the Consultant set forth in
this Agreement.
2
<PAGE>
D. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Paragraph 5, at any time
after April 1, 1999, the Consultant shall be entitled to terminate the
right to receive compensation under this Paragraph 5 and in
consideration thereof shall be released from the obligation not to
compete with CENIT under Paragraph 6.A. of this Agreement but not from
the obligation not to disclose CENIT Confidential Information under
Paragraph 6.B. of this Agreement. The Consultant may exercise this
right by delivering written notice to CENIT at least thirty (30) days
in advance of the date on which the Consultant desires to terminate
such right to receive compensation.
6. Noncompetition; Nondisclosure:
A. For a period of two (2) years from the date of this Agreement, the
Consultant shall not, directly or indirectly, whether or not receiving
compensation therefor, either as principal, agent, manager, employee,
partner, shareholder, director, officer, consultant or otherwise,
become employed by, or manage or perform services for any business
operation, whether financially or in any other capacity, if such
business operation has a location within a fifty (50) mile radius of
the headquarters of the Company and competes with CENIT. For a period
of two (2) years from the date of this Agreement, the Consultant shall
not, directly or indirectly, whether or not receiving compensation
therefor, either as principal, agent, manager, employee, partner,
shareholder, director, officer, consultant or otherwise, (i) in any
way induce or attempt to induce any employee of CENIT to leave such
employee's position with CENIT to become associated with a business
competing in any way with CENIT or (ii) induce or attempt to induce
any customer of CENIT of either to cease transacting business with
CENIT or transfer any part of such customer's business to any other
depository institution.
B. For a period of three (3) years from the date of this Agreement, the
Consultant shall hold in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit of CENIT
all CENIT Confidential Information, which shall have been obtained by
the Consultant during the Consultant's previous employment by the
Bank, service as a director of the Company or during the term of this
Agreement and which shall not be or become public knowledge (other
than by acts by the Consultant or representatives of the Consultant in
violation of this Agreement). For a period of three (3) years from the
date of this Agreement, the Consultant shall not, without the prior
written consent of CENIT or as may otherwise be required by law or
legal process, communicate or divulge any such CENIT Confidential
Information to anyone other than CENIT and those persons designated by
CENIT.
C. During any period in which the provisions of Paragraph 6.A. are
effective, those provisions shall not preclude the Consultant from
holding any publicly traded stock provided the Consultant does not
acquire any stock interest in any one company in excess of ten percent
(10%) of the outstanding voting stock of that company.
D. Except as provided in Paragraph 6.C. above, the Consultant shall be
deemed to be in violation of the provisions of Paragraph 6.A. if he
(i) is employed by, manages, or performs services for a bank or
company that engages in business or performs services similar to the
business
3
<PAGE>
conducted or services performed by CENIT at the time this Agreement is
terminated; (ii) otherwise performs work in the financial services
industry of a similar nature to that performed by the Consultant for
the Bank previously or during the term of this Agreement; or (iii)
solicits or accepts, other than on behalf of CENIT, any competitive
business from any customers of CENIT or requests or advises any
customer of CENIT to withdraw, curtail, or cancel the customer's
business with CENIT or to refrain from conducting additional business
with or procuring additional services from CENIT.
E. The parties agree that the restrictions contained in this Paragraph 6
are reasonable and fair. If the Consultant competes in violation of
the terms of this Paragraph 6, the parties agree that CENIT will be
irreparably harmed without an adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, the
Consultant acknowledges that if he breaches or threatens to breach any
provision of this Paragraph 6, CENIT shall be entitled to an
injunction, both preliminary and permanent, restraining the Consultant
from such breach or threatened breach, but such injunctive relief
shall not preclude CENIT from pursuing all other legal or equitable
remedies arising out of such a breach.
F. The parties have attempted to limit the Consultant's right to compete
only to the extent necessary to protect CENIT from unfair competition.
The parties recognize, however, that reasonable people may differ in
making such a determination. Consequently, the parties hereby agree
that, if the scope or enforceability of a restrictive covenant set
forth in this Paragraph 6 is in any way disputed at any time, a court
or other trier of fact may modify and reform such provision to
substitute such other terms as are reasonable to protect the
legitimate business interests of CENIT.
G. References in this Paragraph 6 to CENIT shall mean and refer to the
Bank, Savings Bank and/or the Company and their respective present and
future affiliates and subsidiaries as the context may require.
H. The provisions of Paragraph 6.A. and Paragraph 6.B. shall survive any
termination of this Agreement or the Consulting Agreement by CENIT as
a consequence of the breach of any of the provision of this Agreement
or the Consulting Agreement by the Consultant, and the provisions of
Paragraph 6.B. shall survive any termination by the Consultant under
Paragraph 5.D. of the right to receive compensation under this
Agreement.
I. The Consultant shall have the right at any time to seek a
determination from CENIT that conduct in which the Consultant proposes
to engage does not violate the provisions of this Paragraph 6. The
Consultant must seek such a determination before engaging in such
conduct and CENIT will use its best efforts to respond to the
Consultant's request for such a determination within fifteen (15) days
of receipt.
7. Publicity. The Consultant and CENIT shall maintain in confidence the
provisions of this Agreement and shall not disclose the terms of this
Agreement to any other person except as provided in this paragraph. The
Consultant agrees that CENIT may disclose the terms of this
4
<PAGE>
Agreement and/or the termination of the Employment Agreement to the
extent that disclosure is required by or deemed to be appropriate
under applicable federal or state banking or securities laws and
regulations or in any litigation to which CENIT may become a party and
in which disclosure of the terms of this Agreement is compelled. The
Consultant and CENIT shall mutually agree upon a statement to be
released to the public concerning the Consultant's resignation of his
positions as a director and an officer of the Bank and the Company and
shall otherwise withhold comment on the circumstances surrounding such
resignation. The Consultant agrees that the limitations imposed on
CENIT by this paragraph shall become null and void in the event of the
termination of this Agreement following a breach of the terms hereof
by the Consultant.
8. Termination. CENIT shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement,
immediately and without prior notice to the Consultant, in the event of any
breach or violation by the Consultant of either the terms of this Agreement
or the terms of the Consulting Agreement or in the event of any act or
omission prior to or during the term of this Agreement that would have
permitted the Bank to terminate the Employment Agreement for cause as
provided therein. In the event of such termination, the obligation of CENIT
to pay compensation and other benefits to the Consultant under this
Agreement shall terminate, and CENIT thereupon shall be entitled to pursue
all legal and equitable remedies available to it under this Agreement, or
at law or in equity, and any limitations imposed hereby upon CENIT's rights
and remedies shall be immediately terminated. The Consultant's duties and
obligations under Paragraph 6 of this Agreement shall survive any such
termination.
9. Notices. For the purposes of this Agreement, notices or other
communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall
be deemed to have been duly given when hand delivered to the party to whom
directed or mailed by United States certified mail, return receipt
requested, postage prepaid, addressed to such party at such party's address
last known by the party giving such notice. Each party shall advise the
other parties of the appropriate address to which notices should be sent.
Notices of change of address shall be effective only upon receipt. CENIT
hereby advises the Consultant that all notices to CENIT should be addressed
to CENIT Bancorp, Inc., 225 West Olney Road, Norfolk, Virginia 23510,
attention: President.
10. Modification - Waivers - Applicable Law. No provisions of this Agreement
may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or
discharge is agreed to in writing, signed by the Consultant and on behalf
of CENIT by such officers as may be specifically designated by the Board of
Directors of the Company. No waiver of any breach, condition or provision
of this Agreement by any party hereto at any time shall be deemed a waiver
of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any
prior or subsequent time. No agreements or representations, oral or
otherwise, express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof
have been made by any party which are not set forth expressly in this
Agreement. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of
this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of
Virginia.

<PAGE>
11. Invalidity-Enforceability. The invalidity or enforceability of any
provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability
of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force
and effect. Any provision in this Agreement which is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability
without invalidating or affecting the remaining provisions hereof, and any
such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not
invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other
jurisdiction.
12. Successor Rights. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
enforceable by the Consultant's personal or legal representatives,
executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and
legatees, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
Company, the Savings Bank, and the Bank and any successors thereto and any
present and future affiliates and subsidiaries thereof. If the Consultant
should die while any amounts would still be payable to the Consultant
hereunder, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be
paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to the Consultant's
legatee or other designee or, if there is no such designee, to the
Consultant's estate.

C. All obligations of CENIT under this Agreement shall be terminated,
except to the extent that it is determined that continuation of the

assistance to or on behalf of either the Bank or the Savings Bank
under the authority contained in Section 13(c) of the Federal Deposit
6
<PAGE>
Insurance Act; or (ii) by the appropriate federal banking agency, at
the time such agency approves a supervisory merger to resolve problems
related to operation of either the Bank or the Savings Bank or when

in an unsafe or unsound condition; but vested rights of the parties
hereto shall not be affected.
14. Headings. Descriptive headings contained in this Agreement are for
convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or
construction of any provision hereof.

of this Agreement and the provisions of any applicable statutes or
regulations, as such statutes or regulations are in effect as of the date
