Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Agreement and Plan of Reorganization

On July 14, 2021, Blue Ridge Bankshares, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Agreement”) with FVCBankcorp, Inc. (“FVCB”). Pursuant to the Agreement, FVCB will merge with and into the Company, with the Company as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). At or immediately following consummation of the Merger, FVCbank, the wholly-owned Virginia chartered commercial bank subsidiary of FVCB, will be merged with and into Blue Ridge Bank, National Association, the Company’s wholly-owned national bank subsidiary (“Blue Ridge Bank”), with Blue Ridge Bank as the surviving bank.

Upon completion of the Merger, in exchange for each share of FVCB common stock, FVCB shareholders will be entitled to receive 1.1492 shares of the Company’s common stock, plus cash in lieu of any fractional shares. Each option to purchase shares of FVCB’s common stock, whether vested or unvested, will convert into an option to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock, on terms and conditions adjusted as provided for in the Agreement. No more than 10 business days prior to the effective time of the Merger, each unvested or contingent FVCB restricted stock unit award that would have vested by its terms at the effective time of the Merger will vest and be settled in shares of FVCB’s common stock. Such shares shall convert into the right to receive the merger consideration payable under the Agreement like all other shares of FVCB’s common stock.

Upon completion of the Merger, the boards of directors of the Company and Blue Ridge Bank will be fixed at 16 directors, consisting of eight current directors of the Company to be designated by the Company (including Brian K. Plum, the current president and chief executive officer of the Company) and eight current directors of FVCB to be designated by FVCB (including David W. Pijor, the current chairman of the board of directors and chief executive officer of FVCB, and Patricia A. Ferrick, the current president of FVCB). Mr. Pijor will be appointed chairman of the boards of directors of the Company and Blue Ridge Bank.

Following the closing of the Merger, Mr. Plum will continue to serve as the Company’s chief executive officer. Mr. Pijor will be appointed executive chairman of the Company and Ms. Ferrick will be appointed president of the Company and president and chief executive officer of Blue Ridge Bank. Jennifer L. Deacon, the current executive vice president and chief financial officer of FVCB, will be appointed executive vice president and chief financial officer of the Company and Blue Ridge Bank.

The Merger is intended to be a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.

The boards of directors of each of the Company and FVCB have unanimously approved the Agreement. The Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants from both the Company and FVCB. The consummation of the Merger is subject to various conditions, including (i) approval of the Agreement by shareholders of the Company and FVCB, (ii) approval of an amendment to the Company’s articles of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock, (iii) receipt of all required regulatory approvals, (iv) the absence of any law or order prohibiting the closing of the Merger, (v) the effectiveness of the registration statement to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) with respect to the Company’s common stock to be issued in the Merger, and (vi) the approval of the listing on the NYSE American exchange of the Company’s common stock to be issued in the Merger. Each party’s obligation to consummate the Merger is subject to certain other conditions, including the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party, compliance of the other party with its covenants, and

receipt from the party’s legal counsel to the effect that the Merger will qualify as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the various conditions for closing, the parties anticipate completing the Merger in the fourth quarter of 2021 or early first quarter 2022.

The Agreement provides certain termination rights for both the Company and FVCB and further provides that a termination fee of $12,300,000 will be payable by either the Company or FVCB, as applicable, in the event that the Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances.

Furthermore, in connection with the execution of the Agreement, each of the current directors on boards of the Company and FVCB, respectively, have entered into certain Affiliate Agreements (described in Item 8.01 below).

The foregoing description of the Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Agreement were made only for purposes of the Agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Agreement, will not survive consummation of the Merger unless otherwise specified in the Agreement, and are subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures exchanged between the parties in connection with the execution of the Agreement. The representations and warranties may have been made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Accordingly, investors should not rely on the representations, warranties, and covenants or any description thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or conditions. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the parties’ public disclosures. Accordingly, the Agreement is included with this filing only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the Agreement, and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding the Company or FVCB, their respective affiliates or their respective businesses. The Agreement should not be read alone, but should instead be read in conjunction with other information regarding the Company, FVCB and their respective affiliates or their respective businesses, the Agreement and the Merger that will be contained in or incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement on Form S-4 of the Company that will include a prospectus of the Company and a joint proxy statement of the Company and FVCB, as well as in the Forms 10-K, Forms 10-Q, Forms 8-K and other filings that the Company makes with the SEC.

Item 8.01.

Other Events.

Affiliate Agreements

Simultaneous with the execution of the Agreement, the Company and FVCB entered into Affiliate Agreements with each of the directors on the boards of the Company and FVCB. Each director, as a shareholder party to an Affiliate Agreement, has agreed, among other things, to vote shares of the Company’s common stock or FVCB’s common stock, as applicable, owned by such shareholder and over which such shareholder has sole voting and investment power in favor of the Merger and the Agreement (and related plan of merger), and against any competing acquisition proposal, any action, proposal, transaction or agreement which could reasonably be expected to result in a breach of the Agreement or the Affiliate Agreement, or other action, proposal or transaction that could reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, delay, discourage, adversely affect or inhibit the timely consummation of the

Merger or the fulfillment of the parties’ respective conditions under the Agreement. The Affiliate Agreements will terminate in certain circumstances, including upon consummation of the Merger or the termination of the Agreement in accordance with its terms.

The foregoing description of the Affiliate Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Affiliate Agreements, forms of which are attached as Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated by reference herein.

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

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from and after the Effective Time, the Continuing Corporation shall possess all rights, privileges, properties, immunities, powers and franchises of FVCB, and all of the debts, liabilities, obligations, claims, restrictions and duties of FVCB shall become the debts, liabilities, obligations, claims, restrictions and duties of the Continuing Corporation.

1.2

Effective Time; Closing.

(a) On the Closing Date (as defined herein), the parties shall execute and cause to be filed the Articles of Merger with the Virginia State Corporation Commission as provided in Section 13.1-720 of the VSCA.

Blue Ridge Bank shall be the surviving bank in the Subsidiary Bank Merger (sometimes referred to herein as the “Continuing Bank” whenever reference is made to it as of the effective date and time of the Subsidiary Bank Merger (the “Subsidiary Merger Effective Time”) or thereafter). As soon as practicable after the approval of this Agreement by the Boards of Directors of BRBS and FVCB, each of BRBS, Blue Ridge Bank, FVCB and FVCbank, respectively, shall take all actions necessary, including effecting the necessary shareholder and board of directors approvals, to approve and adopt a final Subsidiary Bank Agreement and Plan of Merger with respect to the Subsidiary Bank Merger, and the consummation of the Subsidiary Bank Merger shall be conditioned on the consummation of the Merger.

(b) BRBS may at any time change the method or timing of effecting the combination of Blue Ridge Bank and FVCbank if and to the extent BRBS deems such changes necessary, appropriate or desirable for any reason in its discretion (including, without limitation, to ensure that the Merger qualifies as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code); provided, however, that no such change shall (i) alter or change the amount or kind of Merger Consideration (as defined herein), (ii) adversely affect the FVCB shareholders, (iii) adversely affect the ability of the Merger to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, (iv) materially impede or delay consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (v) result in the Subsidiary Bank Merger occurring prior to the Merger; and provided, further, that BRBS shall provide FVCB with five (5) days’ prior written notice of such change and the reasons therefor.

Each of the parties shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause their appropriate officers to execute and deliver to its respective counsel, certificates containing appropriate representations and covenants, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to such counsel, at such time or times as may be reasonably requested by such counsel, including as of the effective date of the Registration Statement (as defined herein) and the Closing Date, in connection with such counsel’s deliveries of opinions with respect to the Tax (as defined herein) treatment of the Merger.

Exchange Procedures.

(a) On or before the Closing Date, BRBS shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with its transfer agent or such other transfer agent or depository or trust institution of recognized standing approved by BRBS and reasonably acceptable to FVCB (in such capacity, the “Exchange Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of the FVCB Common Certificates and FVCB Book-Entry Shares, at the election of BRBS, either certificates representing the shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock or non-certificated shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock (or a combination) issuable pursuant to this Article 2, together with an amount of cash sufficient to pay any dividends or distributions with respect thereto and any cash to be paid in lieu of fractional shares without any interest thereon (the “Exchange Fund”), in exchange for FVCB Common Certificates and FVCB Book-Entry Shares.

(b) As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, the Continuing Corporation shall cause the Exchange Agent to send to each former shareholder of record of FVCB Common Stock immediately before the Effective Time customary transmittal materials for use in exchanging such shareholder’s FVCB Common Certificates or FVCB Book-Entry Shares for the Merger Consideration.

(c) The Continuing Corporation shall cause the Merger Consideration into which shares of FVCB Common Stock are converted at the Effective Time, and dividends or distributions that a FVCB shareholder shall be entitled to receive, to be issued and paid to such FVCB shareholder upon proper surrender to the Exchange Agent of FVCB Common Certificates and FVCB Book-Entry Shares representing such shares of FVCB Common Stock, together with the transmittal materials duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereto. No interest will accrue or be paid on any cash to be paid pursuant to Section 2.4 or Section 2.6.

(d) Any FVCB shareholder whose FVCB Common Certificates or FVCB Book-Entry Shares have been lost, destroyed, stolen or are otherwise missing shall be entitled to the Merger Consideration, dividends or distributions upon compliance with reasonable conditions imposed by the Continuing Corporation pursuant to applicable law and as required in accordance with the Continuing Corporation’s and the Exchange Agent’s respective standard policies (including the requirement that the shareholder furnish a surety bond or other customary indemnity).

FVCB Equity-Based Awards.

(a) At the Effective Time, each option, whether vested or unvested, to purchase shares of FVCB Common Stock granted under an equity or equity-based compensation plan of FVCB (a “FVCB Stock Plan”) that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “FVCB Stock Option”) shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into an option (each, a “Replacement Option”) to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such FVCB Stock Option (except as provided otherwise in this Section 2.3(a) and taking into account any changes thereto, including any acceleration of vesting thereof, provided for in a FVCB Stock Plan or in the related award document by reason of the Merger), the number of shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of FVCB Common Stock subject to the FVCB Stock Option multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio, with any fractional share rounded down to the next lower whole number of shares. The exercise price per share of each Replacement Option shall equal (y) the exercise price per share of FVCB Common Stock subject to such FVCB Stock Option divided by (z) the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each FVCB Stock Option that is intended to qualify as an “incentive stock option” (as defined in Section 422 of the Code) shall be adjusted if necessary in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.424-1(a), and all other options shall be adjusted if necessary in a manner that maintains the option’s exemption from Section 409A of the Code to the extent applicable.

(b) No more than ten (10) business days prior to the Effective Time, each restricted stock unit award granted under a FVCB Stock Plan that is outstanding and unsettled, unvested or contingent (a “FVCB RSU Award”) and that would vest by its terms at the Effective Time shall be vested fully. Each such FVCB RSU Award shall be settled, net of all required tax withholding, if applicable (which withholding shall be accomplished, at the election of the employee, either (i) through holdback of a number of shares of FVCB Common Stock otherwise issuable thereunder sufficient to satisfy such required tax withholding, or (ii) payment by the employee in cash of the required withholding amount, including through withholding from other cash amounts otherwise payable to the employee, all in accordance with such procedures as established by FVCB), in accordance with its terms not later than five (5) days prior to the Effective Time, and any share of FVCB Common Stock issued in settlement of a FVCB RSU Award and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive, without interest, the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) At or prior to the Effective Time, the Board of Directors of FVCB or a committee thereof, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions (in a form subject to the reasonable prior approval of BRBS) and take any actions (after consultation with BRBS) which are reasonably necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.3, including, but not limited to, delivering written notice (in a form subject to the reasonable prior approval of BRBS) to each holder of a FVCB Stock Option or FVCB RSU Award of the treatment of such award pursuant to this Section 2.3.

(d) BRBS, prior to the Effective Time, and the Continuing Corporation, as soon as practicable following the Effective Time, shall take all corporate actions that are necessary for the assumption of the Replacement Options, including the reservation, issuance and listing of Continuing Corporation Common Stock as necessary to effect the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.3 and the provision of any notice or amended award agreement to each holder of a Replacement Option. As soon as practicable following the Effective Time, the Continuing Corporation shall file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a post-effective amendment to the Form S-4 that registered the Continuing Corporation Common Stock issued in connection with the Merger or a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor or other appropriate form) with respect to the shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock underlying such Replacement Options, and shall use reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement for so long as such assumed Replacement Options remain outstanding.

2.4

No Fractional Shares.

Each holder of shares of FVCB Common Stock exchanged pursuant to the Merger which would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of the Continuing Corporation Common Stock shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash (without interest and rounded to the nearest cent) in an amount equal to such fractional part of a share of the Continuing Corporation Common Stock multiplied by the average of the closing sale prices of BRBS Common Stock as reported on the NYSE American market for the ten (10) full trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding (but not including) the Effective Time.

2.5

Anti-Dilution.

In the event BRBS changes (or establishes a record date for changing) the number of shares of BRBS Common Stock issued and outstanding before the Effective Time as a result of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization or similar transaction, appropriate and proportional adjustments will be made to the Exchange Ratio.

2.6

Dividends.

No dividend or other distribution payable to the holders of record of the Continuing Corporation Common Stock at, or as of, any time after the Effective Time will be paid to the holder of any FVCB Common Certificate or FVCB Book-Entry Shares until such holder properly surrenders such shares (or furnishes a surety bond or customary indemnity that the FVCB Common Certificate or FVCB Book-Entry Share is lost, destroyed, stolen or otherwise missing as provided in Section 2.2(d)) for exchange as provided in Section 2.2 of this Agreement, promptly after which time all such dividends or distributions will be paid (without interest).

2.7

Withholding Rights.

Each of the Continuing Corporation and the Exchange Agent will be entitled, but not obligated, to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration and any other amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any person such amounts, if any, as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority (as defined herein) by the Exchange Agent, such amounts withheld will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to such person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Exchange Agent.

2.8

No Appraisal Rights.

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

(j) Make any material investment in or acquisition of (either by purchase of stock or securities, contributions to capital, property transfers, or purchase of any property or assets) any other person other than its wholly-owned Subsidiaries, except (i) purchases and sales of investment securities subject to Section 4.1(s), and (ii) by way of foreclosures or acquisitions of control in a fiduciary or similar capacity or in satisfaction of debts previously contracted in good faith, in each case in the ordinary course of business.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the other party does not respond to a request for consent pursuant to this Section 4.1(p) within three (3) business days of having received such request together with reasonable information regarding the Loan, such non-response shall be deemed to constitute consent.

BRBS will use its reasonable best efforts, in which FVCB will reasonably cooperate as necessary, to file the Registration Statement, including the Joint Proxy Statement in preliminary form, with the SEC as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement and to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the filing thereof, and BRBS and FVCB shall thereafter mail or deliver the Joint Proxy Statement to their respective shareholders as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act. BRBS also agrees to use all reasonable efforts to promptly obtain all necessary state securities law or “Blue Sky” permits and approvals required to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) Each party agrees, as to itself and its Subsidiaries, that none of the information supplied or to be supplied by it for inclusion or incorporation by reference in (i) the Registration Statement will, at the time the Registration Statement and each amendment or supplement thereto, if any, becomes effective under the Securities Act, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (ii) the Joint Proxy Statement will, at the date of mailing to the BRBS shareholders and the FVCB shareholders and at the times of the respective shareholders meetings, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light

Each party further agrees that if it becomes aware that any information furnished by it that would cause any of the statements in the Joint Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement to be false or misleading with respect to any material fact, or to omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not false or misleading, to promptly inform the other party thereof and to take appropriate steps to correct the Joint Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement.

5.5

No Other Acquisition Proposals.

(a) Each party agrees that it will not, and will cause its Subsidiaries and its and its Subsidiaries’ officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives (including any financial advisor, attorney or accountant retained by it or any of its Subsidiaries) not to, directly or indirectly, (i) initiate, solicit, endorse, or knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate (including by providing information or assistance) any inquiries, proposals or offers with respect to, or any inquiry, proposal or offer that is reasonably likely to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal (as defined herein), (ii) furnish any confidential or nonpublic information relating to an Acquisition Proposal, (iii) engage or participate in any negotiations or discussions concerning an Acquisition Proposal, or (iv) approve, agree to, accept, endorse or recommend, or propose to approve, agree to, accept, endorse or recommend any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger or acquisition agreement, option agreement or similar agreement relating to an Acquisition Proposal, provided that nothing in this Agreement shall prevent such party or its representatives from contacting any person that has made an Acquisition Proposal solely for the purpose of seeking clarification of the terms of such Acquisition Proposal or directing such person to the terms of this Section 5.5.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 5.5(a), nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit either party, prior to its respective meeting of shareholders to be held pursuant to Section 5.3 and subject to compliance with the other terms of this Section 5.5, from furnishing confidential or nonpublic information to, or engaging or participating in discussions or negotiations with, any person or entity that makes an unsolicited, bona fide written Acquisition Proposal with respect to such party (that did not result from a breach of this Section 5.5) if, and only to the extent that, (i) such party’s Board of Directors concludes in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such actions would be reasonably likely to result in a violation of its fiduciary duties to its shareholders under applicable law, (ii) before taking such actions, such party receives from such person or entity an executed confidentiality agreement on terms no less restrictive with respect to the confidential treatment of information by such party than the Confidentiality Agreement, which confidentiality agreement shall not provide such person or entity with any exclusive right to negotiate with such party, provided, that any non-public information provided to any person or entity shall have previously been provided to the other party hereto or shall be simultaneously provided to the other party hereto, and (iii) such party’s Board of Directors concludes in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors, that the Acquisition Proposal constitutes or is reasonably likely to result in a Superior Proposal (as defined herein). Each party shall immediately (within twenty-four (24) hours) notify the other party orally and in writing of its receipt of any such Acquisition Proposal or any request for non-public information, or any other inquiry, that could reasonably be expected to lead to any Acquisition Proposal, the material terms

and conditions thereof, and the identity of the person making such Acquisition Proposal, and will thereafter keep the other party apprised of any related material developments, discussions and negotiations on a reasonably current basis, including by providing a copy of all material documentation and correspondence relating thereto.

(c) As used herein, an “Acquisition Proposal” shall mean, other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any offer, proposal or inquiry relating to, or any third party indication of interest in, whether communicated to such party or publicly announced to such party’s shareholders, any of the following transactions involving BRBS or FVCB, or their respective Subsidiaries: (i) a merger, consolidation, share exchange, business combination, reorganization, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or other similar transaction involving a party or its Subsidiaries whose assets, individually or in the aggregate, constitute more than ten percent (10%) of the consolidated assets of the party; (ii) any acquisition or purchase, direct or indirect, of ten percent (10%) or more of the consolidated assets of a party and its Subsidiaries or ten percent (10%) or more of any class of equity or voting securities of a party or its Subsidiaries whose assets, individually or in the aggregate, constitute more than ten percent (10%) of the consolidated assets of the party; or (iii) any tender offer (including a self-tender offer) or exchange offer that, if consummated, would result in such third party beneficially owning ten percent (10%) or more of any class of equity or voting securities of a party or its Subsidiaries whose assets, individually or in the aggregate, constitute more than ten percent (10%) of the consolidated assets of the party. Solely for purposes of Section 7.4(a) and Section 7.4(c), all references to “ten percent (10%) or more” in such definition shall be deemed to be references to “fifty percent (50%) or more.”

(d) As used herein, the term “Superior Proposal” shall mean an unsolicited, bona fide written Acquisition Proposal made by a person or entity (or group of persons or entities acting in concert within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 under the Exchange Act) that the Board of Directors of BRBS or FVCB, as the case may be, concludes in good faith, after consultation with its outside financial and legal advisors, taking into account all legal, financial, regulatory, timing and other aspects of the Acquisition Proposal, including the likelihood of obtaining financing and of receiving all required approvals of Governmental Authorities, and including the terms and conditions of this Agreement (as it may be proposed in writing to be amended by BRBS or FVCB, as applicable), is reasonably capable of being completed on the terms proposed and would, if consummated, result in a transaction that is more favorable to the shareholders of BRBS or FVCB, as the case may be, from a financial point of view, than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (as it may be proposed in writing to be amended by BRBS or FVCB, as applicable); provided that, for purposes of this definition of “Superior Proposal,” the term “Acquisition Proposal” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 5.5(c), except the reference to “ten percent (10%) or more” in such definition shall be deemed to be a reference to “fifty percent (50%) or more” and “Acquisition Proposal” shall only be deemed to refer to a transaction involving BRBS or FVCB or one of their respective banking Subsidiaries.

(e) Except as provided in Section 5.5(f), neither the Board of Directors of BRBS, the Board of Directors of FVCB, nor, in each case, any committee thereof shall withhold, withdraw or modify in any manner adverse to the other party, or propose publicly to withhold,

withdraw or modify in any manner adverse to the other party, the approval or recommendation of the Board of Directors of BRBS or FVCB, as applicable, or any such committee thereof with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (a “Change in BRBS Recommendation” or a “Change in FVCB Recommendation,” respectively).

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

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

(ii) make a Change in FVCB Recommendation or a Change in BRBS Recommendation, as applicable,

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

(g) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit FVCB, BRBS or their respective Boards of Directors or any committee thereof from at any time taking and disclosing to FVCB’s or BRBS’s shareholders, as applicable, a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9, Rule 14e-2(a), or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act with respect to an Acquisition Proposal; provided that such rules will in no way eliminate or modify the effect that any action pursuant to such rules would otherwise have under this Agreement.

(h) Each of BRBS and its Subsidiaries and FVCB and its Subsidiaries shall, and shall direct their respective representatives to, (i) immediately cease and cause to be terminated any and all activities, discussions or negotiations with any persons conducted heretofore with respect to any offer or proposal that constitutes, or may be reasonably expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, and (ii) not waive or amend any “standstill” provision or provisions of similar effect of which it is a party or of which it is a beneficiary.

5.6

Applications and Consents.

(a) The parties hereto shall cooperate and use their reasonable best efforts to prepare as promptly as possible all documentation, and to make all filings and to obtain all permits, consents, approvals and authorizations of each Governmental Authority (the “Regulatory Approvals”) and all third parties necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and will make all necessary filings in respect of the Regulatory Approvals and third parties as soon as practicable. Each of the parties hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to comply with the terms and conditions of all such Regulatory Approvals and resolve objections, if any, which may be asserted with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby under any applicable law or regulation; provided, that, in no event shall BRBS or FVCB be required, and neither BRBS nor FVCB shall be permitted (without the prior written consent of the other), in connection with a Regulatory Approval or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to take any action, or commit to take any action, or to accept any restriction or condition, involving BRBS, FVCB, the Continuing Corporation or their respective Subsidiaries, that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (excluding clauses (A) through (F) in such defined term) on the Continuing Corporation and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, after giving effect to the Merger and the Subsidiary Bank Merger (any such condition, commitment or restriction, a “Burdensome Condition”).

(b) Each party hereto will promptly furnish to the other party copies of applications filed with all Governmental Authorities and copies of written communications received by such party from any Governmental Authority with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. Each party will consult with the other party with respect to the obtaining of all Regulatory Approvals and other material consents from third parties advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and each party will keep the other party apprised of the status of material matters relating to completion of the transactions contemplated hereby. All documents that the parties or their respective Subsidiaries are responsible for filing with any Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (including to obtain Regulatory Approvals) will comply as to form in all material respects with the provisions of applicable law.

5.7

Public Announcements.

Prior to the Effective Time, BRBS and FVCB will consult with each other as to the form and substance of any press release or other public statement materially related to this Agreement prior to issuing such press release or public statement or making any other public disclosure related thereto (including any broad-based employee communication that is reasonably likely to become the subject of public disclosure); provided, that nothing in this Section 5.7 shall prohibit any party from making any disclosure necessary in order to satisfy such party’s disclosure obligations imposed by applicable law or the rules established by the NYSE American market or any other securities exchange, in which case the party required to make the disclosure shall use its reasonable best efforts to allow the other party reasonable time to comment on such disclosure in advance of the issuance thereof.

5.8

Affiliate Agreements.

(a) FVCB has identified to BRBS all persons who are, as of the date hereof, directors of FVCB. FVCB shall have delivered to BRBS on or prior to the date hereof executed copies of a written affiliate agreement in the form of Exhibit 5.8(a) hereto from each such director of FVCB.

(b) BRBS has identified to FVCB all persons who are, as of the date hereof, directors of BRBS. BRBS shall have delivered to FVCB on or prior to the date hereof executed copies of a written affiliate agreement in the form of Exhibit 5.8(b) hereto from each such director of BRBS.

5.9

Employee Benefit Plans.

(a) Subject in all events to the other provisions of this Section 5.9, for a period of twelve (12) months following the Effective Time , BRBS at its sole election (but after due consultation, before the Effective Time, with FVCB) on a plan-by-plan basis shall either: (i) provide to officers and employees of FVCB and its Subsidiaries, who at or after the Effective Time become employees of the Continuing Corporation or its Subsidiaries (“FVCB Continuing Employees”), employee benefits under a Benefit Plan of BRBS or any Subsidiary of BRBS (individually, a “BRBS Benefit Plan” and collectively, the “BRBS Benefit Plans”) (with no break in coverage), on terms and conditions which are the same as for similarly situated officers and employees of the Continuing Corporation and its Subsidiaries; or (ii) maintain for the benefit of the FVCB Continuing Employees, one or more of the FVCB Benefit Plans maintained by FVCB immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided that the Continuing Corporation or its Subsidiaries may amend any Benefit Plan of FVCB or any Subsidiary of FVCB (individually, a “FVCB Benefit Plan” and collectively, the “FVCB Benefit Plans”) during such period to comply with any law or, so long as the benefits provided under those FVCB Benefit Plans following such amendment are no less favorable to the FVCB Continuing Employees than benefits provided by BRBS to its officers and employees under any comparable BRBS Benefit Plans, as necessary and appropriate for other business reasons.

(b) For purposes of participation and vesting (but not benefit accruals other than for paid time off as provided in Section 5.9(c) and severance under Section 5.9(d)) under the BRBS Benefit Plans, service with or credited or recognized by FVCB or any of its Subsidiaries under

the corresponding FVCB Benefit Plan shall be treated as service with BRBS, provided, however, that such service shall not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits. To the extent permitted under applicable law, for any plan year during which FVCB Continuing Employees transition to the welfare BRBS Benefit Plans, BRBS shall use its best efforts to cause welfare BRBS Benefit Plans maintained by BRBS that cover the FVCB Continuing Employees after the Effective Time to (i) waive any waiting period and restrictions and limitations for preexisting conditions or insurability (except for pre-existing conditions that were excluded, or restrictions or limitations that were applicable, under the FVCB Benefit Plans), and (ii) cause any deductible, co-insurance, or maximum out-of-pocket payments made by the FVCB Continuing Employees under welfare FVCB Benefit Plans to be credited to such FVCB Continuing Employees under welfare BRBS Benefit Plans, so as to reduce the amount of any deductible, co-insurance or maximum out-of-pocket payments payable by such FVCB Continuing Employees under welfare BRBS Benefit Plans for such plan year (if any).

(c) As of the Effective Time, BRBS and the Continuing Corporation shall recognize each FVCB Continuing Employee’s service with FVCB for purposes of calculating paid time off (“PTO”) under BRBS’s PTO policy or any successor policy of the Continuing Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries (the “BRBS PTO Policy”). For the calendar year including the Effective Time, credit of PTO under the BRBS PTO Policy shall be pro-rated so that credit only relates to the portion of the year following the Effective Time and a FVCB Continuing Employee shall be credited with accrued and unused PTO under the FVCB PTO Policy as of the Effective Time, pro-rated based on the portion of the year prior to the Effective Time, including to the extent applicable up to 40 hours of accrued but unused PTO carried over from a prior calendar year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any employee be credited with PTO that will result in duplication of PTO hours for the same period of service. Effective as of immediately prior the Effective Time and subject to the first two sentences of this Section 5.9(c), FVCB shall terminate any FVCB PTO policy without payment of any PTO due thereunder due to such termination and, prior to adoption, shall provide BRBS with the opportunity to review and provide reasonable comments to such termination document.

(d) BRBS shall establish, effective as of the Effective Time, a severance plan covering all full-time and part-time employees of FVCB and BRBS, compliant with ERISA and the Code, which provides the benefits described in this Section 5.9(d). Each full-time and part-time employee of FVCB or BRBS or any Subsidiary of FVCB or BRBS immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any employee who is party to an employment agreement, severance agreement, retention agreement or change-in-control agreement that provides for severance benefits) whose employment is involuntarily terminated other than for “cause” by the Continuing Corporation or who terminates employment for “good reason” on or after the Effective Time but before the date that is twelve (12) months after the Effective Time, shall be entitled to receive severance pay equal to (i) two (2) weeks of pay for each full year of continuous service with FVCB, BRBS, any Subsidiary of FVCB or BRBS and the Continuing Corporation, subject to a minimum of four (4) weeks and a maximum of twenty-six (26) weeks of pay at his or her rate of pay in effect at the time of termination (or, if greater, the rate of pay in effect prior to any change in rate of pay that constitutes the grounds for “good reason”), provided such employee has signed and does not revoke a release and waiver of claims in favor of FVCB, BRBS, the Continuing

Corporation and its successors, and any Subsidiaries and affiliates of each, in such form as acceptable to the Continuing Corporation. As used herein, “cause” shall mean termination due to unacceptable performance as determined by the Continuing Corporation or its Subsidiaries or due to the employee’s material violation of the policies of the Continuing Corporation and its Subsidiaries and any of their predecessors. As used herein, “good reason” shall mean, without an employee’s written consent, an employee’s pay as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time is reduced on or after the Effective Time; provided that the employee gives the Continuing Corporation notice of his or her resignation no later than thirty (30) days following such employee’s receipt of written notice of such reduction. As used herein, “pay” shall mean an employee’s base annual salary or base annual compensation computed on an hourly basis, excluding bonuses, commissions (provided, that commissions will be considered for employees paid solely or primarily on a commission basis), perquisites, benefits or similar payments, and “year of continuous service” shall mean each full twelve (12)-month period of service from the latest date of hire. Subject to applicable law, any severance hereunder shall be paid in the form of a single lump sum cash payment as soon as practicable (and no later than fifteen (15) days) following the date on which the release required hereunder shall be irrevocable. Such severance payments shall be in lieu of, not in addition to, any payment under severance pay plans that may be in effect at FVCB, BRBS or any Subsidiary of FVCB or BRBS prior to the Effective Time or the Continuing Corporation following the Effective Time.

(e) Except to the extent addressed elsewhere in this Section 5.9 with respect to a FVCB Benefit Plan, at least ten (10) days (or such shorter period agreed to by the parties) prior to the Effective Time, FVCB shall take, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to take, all actions reasonably requested by BRBS at least thirty (30) days (or such shorter period reasonably agreed to by the parties) prior to the Effective Time that may be necessary or appropriate, conditioned on the occurrence of the Effective Time, (i) to cause one or more FVCB Benefits Plans to terminate as of a date on, immediately before or after the Effective Time (as determined by BRBS), (ii) to cause benefit accruals and entitlements under any FVCB Benefit Plan to cease as of the Effective Time, or as of the date immediately preceding the Effective Time, (iii) to cause the continuation on and after the Effective Time of any contract, arrangement or insurance policy relating to any FVCB Benefit Plan for such period as may be reasonably requested by BRBS, or (iv) to facilitate the merger of any FVCB Benefit Plan into any BRBS Benefit Plan in accordance with applicable law. All resolutions, notices, or other documents issued, adopted or executed in connection with the implementation of this Section 5.9(e) shall be subject to BRBS’s reasonable prior review and approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(f) With respect to the FVCbank 401(k) Plan (the “FVCB 401(k) Plan”), BRBS shall either maintain the FVCB 401(k) Plan at and after the Effective Time (and, at BRBS’s election, merge it into the BRBS 401(k) Plan (as defined herein) following the Effective Time) or, alternatively, if requested by BRBS in accordance with Section 5.9(e), FVCB shall cause such plan to be terminated in accordance with Section 5.9(e) and this Section 5.9(f). In the event BRBS requests such termination, FVCB shall take all actions necessary and proper to (i) terminate the FVCB 401(k) Plan effective on the day prior to the day that includes the Effective Time, contingent on the Closing and in accordance with applicable law, (ii) one hundred percent (100%) vest all accounts in the FVCB 401(k) Plan (to the extent not already vested) and (iii)

contribute before the Effective Time or, to the extent not able to contribute before the Effective Time, properly accrue for, all employer contributions accrued prior to the termination of the FVCB 401(k) Plan. To the extent the FVCB 401(k) Plan is terminated prior to the Effective Time, distributions and rollovers shall be made to the extent administratively possible within sixty (60) days following the Effective Time and BRBS and FVCB shall take any and all actions as may be required to permit the FVCB Continuing Employees to directly roll over their account balances into the 401(k) plan maintained by BRBS or Blue Ridge Bank (the “BRBS 401(k) Plan”) and to include in any direct rollover into the BRBS 401(k) Plan any outstanding loan notes under the FVCB 401(k) Plan. Each FVCB Continuing Employee shall be eligible to participate in the BRBS 401(k) Plan on or as soon as administratively practicable after the Effective Time if the FVCB 401(k) Plan is terminated prior to the Effective Time. Any other former employee of FVCB or any FVCB Subsidiary who is employed by BRBS or any BRBS Subsidiary after the Effective Time shall be eligible to be a participant in the BRBS 401(k) Plan upon complying with eligibility requirements. Service with or credited or recognized by FVCB or a FVCB Subsidiary with respect to the FVCB 401(k) Plan shall be treated in accordance with Section 5.9(b).

(g) FVCB shall take, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to take, all actions, including providing any written notices or other participant communications and obtaining any consents, required under any FVCB Benefit Plans to be taken in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and shall provide evidence of such timely action not later than ten (10) days prior to the Effective Time.

(h) Within thirty (30) days prior to the Effective Time, FVCB shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, adopt written resolutions approved in advance in writing by BRBS and its legal counsel (a copy of which shall be delivered to BRBS at the Closing) to terminate and liquidate in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A(3)(j)(ix)(B)(i) (to the extent applicable) the employment agreement listed on Section 5.9(h) of FVCB’s Disclosure Letter, with such termination and liquidation to be effective immediately after the Effective Time and, to the extent applicable, intended to be made in full compliance with Section 409A of the Code. In such event, subject to the release of claims described in this Section 5.9(h) becoming irrevocable, BRBS agrees to pay to the individual who is a party to such terminated and liquidated employment agreement the applicable amount described on Section 5.9(h) of FVCB’s Disclosure Letter. In order for such termination and liquidation and payment to occur, the employee who is a party to the agreement listed on Section 5.9(h) of FVCB’s Disclosure Letter shall execute and deliver to BRBS at the Closing an acknowledgement and release of claims in the applicable form set forth on Section 5.9(h) of the FVCB Disclosure Letter.

(i) The provisions of this Agreement, including this Section 5.9, are for the benefit of the parties to this Agreement only and shall not be construed to grant any rights, as a third party beneficiary or otherwise, to any person who is not a party to this Agreement, nor shall any provision of this Agreement be deemed to be the adoption of, or an amendment to, any employee benefit plan, as that term is defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, or otherwise to limit the right of FVCB or BRBS to amend, modify or terminate any such employee benefit plan.

5.10

Reservation of Shares; NYSE Listing.

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

(b) BRBS shall use all reasonable best efforts to cause the shares of the Continuing Corporation Common Stock to be issued in the Merger (including shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock underlying Replacement Options ) to be approved for listing on the NYSE American market, subject to official notice of issuance, as promptly as practicable, and in any event before the Effective Time.

5.11

Indemnification; Insurance.

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

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

(c) Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or

has been in existence with respect to FVCB or any of its Subsidiaries for any of their respective directors, officers or other employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.11 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims under such policies.

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

(e) If the Continuing Corporation or any of its successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other entity and is not the continuing or surviving entity of such consolidation or merger, transfers all or substantially all of its assets or deposits to any other entity or engages in any similar transaction, then in each case, the Continuing Corporation will cause proper provision to be made so that the successors and assigns of the Continuing Corporation will expressly assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.11. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent required by any agreement previously entered into by FVCB in connection with a merger, acquisition or other business combination, the provisions of this Section 5.11 shall apply to directors, officers, employees and fiduciaries of predecessor entities previously acquired by FVCB.

5.12

Employment Arrangements.

(a) Except as provided in Section 5.9(h), the Continuing Corporation will, as of and after the Effective Time, assume and honor all employment, severance and change in control agreements or arrangements that FVCB and its Subsidiaries have with their current and former officers, directors and employees and which are set forth in Section 5.12(a) of FVCB’s Disclosure Letter, except to the extent (i) BRBS and the applicable employee or director have agreed to a replacement agreement after the date hereof but prior to the Effective Time or (ii) any such agreements or arrangements shall have been amended, terminated or superseded without BRBS’s consent after the date hereof but prior to the Effective Time.

(b) BRBS shall be authorized to make retention bonus awards from a retention bonus pool of up to an amount set forth in Section 5.12(b) of BRBS’s Disclosure Letter. The retention bonus pool shall be dedicated to certain of BRBS’s, FVCB’s or their Subsidiaries’ employees (which may include executive officer employees) for purposes of retaining such employees through and, in some circumstances, after the Effective Time, with the participating employees and specific terms of such retention bonuses to be determined by the Chief Executive Officer of FVCB and the President and Chief Executive Officer of BRBS.

(c) Prior to the Effective Time, FVCB shall have obtained a general release from each of the individuals listed in Section 5.12(c) of FVCB’s Disclosure Letter associated with each individual’s respective employment prior to the Effective Time. Such release shall be in a form acceptable to BRBS.

(d) As of the date hereof, BRBS has entered into employment agreements which will become effective as of the Effective Time, with the individuals named in Section 5.12(d) of BRBS’s Disclosure Letter.

(e) No more than sixty (60) but at least forty-five (45) days prior to the Effective Time, FVCB shall provide BRBS with updated preliminary calculations called for in Section 3.3(o)(x), including confirmation of the amount of the payments to be made to the applicable recipients thereunder and the calculations, supporting tax and other records, and valuation report or analysis, if any, in making its calculations. Final calculations confirming or updating such preliminary calculations shall be performed by BRBS’s outside accounting firm.

5.13

Notice of Deadlines.

At least ninety (90) days prior to the Effective Time, FVCB shall provide BRBS with a complete and accurate list of the deadlines for extensions or terminations of all material leases, agreements or licenses (including specifically real property leases and data processing agreements) to which FVCB or any of its Subsidiaries is a party. For purposes of this Section 5.13 only, a material agreement shall mean an agreement not terminable on thirty (30) days or less notice and involving the payment or value of more than $250,000 per year and/or has a termination fee.

5.14

Consent to Assign and Use Leased Premises.

In Section 5.14 of its Disclosure Letter, FVCB has provided a list of all material leases with respect to real or personal property used by it or any of its Subsidiaries. With respect to the leases disclosed in Section 5.14 of its Disclosure Letter, FVCB and each of its Subsidiaries will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all consents necessary or appropriate to transfer and assign, as of the Effective Time, all right, title and interest of FVCB and each of its Subsidiaries to the Continuing Corporation or an appropriate Subsidiary of the Continuing Corporation and to permit the use and operation of the leased premises by the Continuing Corporation or an appropriate Subsidiary of the Continuing Corporation.

5.15

Takeover Laws.

If any federal or state anti-takeover laws or regulations may become, or may purport to be, applicable to the transactions contemplated hereby, each party hereto and its board of directors will grant such approvals and take such actions as are necessary and legally permissible so that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize the effects of any such laws or regulations on any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

5.16

Change of Method.

BRBS and FVCB shall be empowered, upon their mutual agreement and at any time prior to the Effective Time (and whether before or after the FVCB Shareholders Meeting or the BRBS Shareholders Meeting), to change the method or structure of effecting the combination of BRBS and FVCB (including the provisions of Article 1), if and to the extent they both deem such change

to be necessary, appropriate or desirable; provided that no such change shall (i) alter or change the Exchange Ratio, (ii) adversely affect the tax treatment of BRBS or FVCB pursuant to this Agreement, (iii) materially impede or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in a timely manner, or (iv) require the approval of either party’s shareholders under the VSCA unless such change is conditioned upon obtaining such approval. The parties hereto agree to reflect any such change in an appropriate amendment to this Agreement executed by both parties in accordance with Section 8.3.

5.17

Certain Policies.

Prior to the Effective Time, FVCB shall, consistent with GAAP and applicable banking laws and regulations, modify or change its Loan, OREO, accrual, reserve, Tax, litigation and real estate valuation policies and practices (including loan classifications and levels of reserves) so as to be applied on a basis that is consistent with that of BRBS; provided, however, that no such modifications or changes need be made prior to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 6.1(a) and Section 6.1(b).

5.18

Shareholder Litigation.

Each of BRBS and FVCB shall give the other prompt notice of any shareholder litigation against such party or its directors or affiliates (or combination thereof) relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and shall give the other the opportunity to participate in, but not control, the defense or settlement of any such litigation. In addition, no such settlement by either party shall be agreed to without the other party’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

5.19

Section 16 Matters.

BRBS and FVCB agree that, to most effectively compensate and retain certain directors and officers of FVCB in connection with the Merger, both prior to and after the Effective Time, it is desirable that the directors and officers of FVCB not be subject to a risk of liability under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law in connection with the conversion of shares of FVCB Common Stock in the Merger, and for that purpose agree to the provisions of this Section 5.19. FVCB shall deliver to BRBS, in a reasonably timely fashion prior to the Effective Time, accurate information regarding certain officers and directors of FVCB. Subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, and the Boards of Directors of BRBS and FVCB, or a committee of non-employee directors thereof (as such term is defined for purposes of Rule 16b-3(d) under the Exchange Act), shall prior to the Effective Time take all such steps as may be required to cause (in the case of FVCB) any dispositions of FVCB Common Stock by the directors and officers of FVCB, and (in the case of BRBS) any acquisitions of the Continuing Corporation Common Stock by any director or officer of FVCB who (if any), immediately following the Merger, will be an officer or director of the Continuing Corporation subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, in each case pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to be exempt from liability pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

Pursuant to this Plan of Merger (“Plan of Merger”), FVCBANKCORP, INC., a Virginia corporation (“FVCB”), shall merge with and into BLUE RIDGE BANKSHARES, INC., a Virginia corporation (“BRBS”).

ARTICLE 1

Terms of the Merger

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated as of July 14, 2021, between BRBS and FVCB (the “Agreement”), at the Effective Time (as defined herein), FVCB shall be merged with and into BRBS (the “Merger”) in accordance with the provisions of Virginia law, and with the effect set forth in Section 13.1-721 of the Virginia Stock Corporation Act (the “VSCA”).

The Merger shall become effective on such date and time as may be determined in accordance with Section 1.2(a) of the Agreement (the “Effective Time”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from and after the Effective Time, the Continuing Corporation shall possess all rights, privileges, properties, immunities, powers and franchises of FVCB, and all of the debts, liabilities, obligations, claims, restrictions and duties of FVCB shall become the debts, liabilities, obligations, claims, restrictions and duties of the Continuing Corporation.

ARTICLE 2

Merger Consideration; Exchange Procedures

2.1

Conversion of Shares.

At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of BRBS or FVCB, or their respective shareholders:

(a) Subject to Section 2.1(e), each share of common stock, no par value per share, of BRBS (“BRBS Common Stock”), that is issued and outstanding immediately

before the Effective Time, shall remain an issued and outstanding share of common stock of the Continuing Corporation and shall remain unchanged by the Merger.

(b) Subject to Section 2.1(e), each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of FVCB (“FVCB Common Stock”), that is issued and outstanding immediately before the

A-1

Effective Time, shall be converted into and exchanged for the right to receive 1.1492 shares (the “Exchange Ratio”) of common stock, no par value per share, of the Continuing Corporation (the “Continuing Corporation Common Stock”), plus cash in lieu of any fractional shares pursuant to Section 2.4 (collectively, the “Merger Consideration”).

(e) Each share of FVCB Common Stock held by either party and each share of BRBS Common Stock held by FVCB or any of FVCB’s Subsidiaries (as defined in the Agreement) prior to the Effective Time (in each case other than in a fiduciary or agency capacity or on behalf of third parties as a result of debts previously contracted) shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist at the Effective Time and no consideration shall be issued in exchange therefor; provided, that such shares of BRBS Common Stock shall resume the status of authorized and unissued shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock.

2.2

Exchange Procedures.

(a) On or before the Closing Date (as defined in the Agreement), BRBS shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with its transfer agent or such other transfer agent or depository or trust institution of recognized standing approved by BRBS and reasonably acceptable to FVCB (in such capacity, the “Exchange Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of the FVCB Common Certificates and FVCB Book-Entry Shares, at the election of BRBS, either certificates representing the shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock or non-certificated shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock (or a combination) issuable pursuant to this Article 2, together with an amount of cash sufficient to pay any dividends or distributions with respect thereto and any cash to be paid in lieu of fractional shares without any interest thereon (the “Exchange Fund”), in exchange for FVCB Common Certificates and FVCB Book-Entry Shares.

(c) The Continuing Corporation shall cause the Merger Consideration into which shares of FVCB Common Stock are converted at the Effective Time, and dividends or

A-2

distributions that a FVCB shareholder shall be entitled to receive, to be issued and paid to such FVCB shareholder upon proper surrender to the Exchange Agent of FVCB Common Certificates and FVCB Book-Entry Shares representing such shares of FVCB Common Stock, together with the transmittal materials duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereto. No interest will accrue or be paid on any cash to be paid pursuant to Section 2.4 or Section 2.6.

2.3

FVCB Equity-Based Awards.

(a) At the Effective Time, each option, whether vested or unvested, to purchase shares of FVCB Common Stock granted under an equity or equity-based compensation plan of FVCB (a “FVCB Stock Plan”) that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “FVCB Stock Option”) shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into an option (each, a “Replacement Option”) to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such FVCB Stock Option (except as provided otherwise in this Section 2.3(a) and taking into account any changes thereto, including any acceleration of vesting thereof, provided for in a FVCB Stock Plan or in the related award document by reason of the Merger), the number of shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of FVCB Common Stock subject to the FVCB Stock Option multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio, with any fractional share rounded down to the next lower whole number of shares. The exercise price per share of each Replacement Option shall equal (y) the exercise price per share of FVCB Common Stock subject to such FVCB Stock Option divided by (z) the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each FVCB Stock Option that is intended to qualify as an “incentive stock option” (as defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)) shall be adjusted if necessary in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.424-1(a), and all other options shall be adjusted if necessary in a manner that maintains the option’s exemption from Section 409A of the Code to the extent applicable.

A-3

(d) BRBS, prior to the Effective Time, and the Continuing Corporation, as soon as practicable following the Effective Time, shall take all corporate actions that are necessary for the assumption of the Replacement Options, including the reservation, issuance and listing of Continuing Corporation Common Stock as necessary to effect the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.3 and the provision of any notice or amended award agreement to each holder of a Replacement Option. As soon as practicable following the Effective Time, the Continuing Corporation shall file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a post-effective amendment to the Form S-4 that registered the Continuing Corporation Common Stock issued in connection with the Merger or a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor or other appropriate form) with respect to the shares of Continuing Corporation Common Stock underlying such Replacement Options, and shall use reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement for so long as such assumed Replacement Options remain outstanding.

2.4

No Fractional Shares.

A-4

2.5

Anti-Dilution.

2.6

Dividends.

No dividend or other distribution payable to the holders of record of the Continuing Corporation Common Stock at, or as of, any time after the Effective Time will be paid to the holder of any FVCB Common Certificate or FVCB Book-Entry Shares until such holder properly surrenders such shares (or furnishes a surety bond or customary indemnity that the FVCB Common Certificate or FVCB Book-Entry Share is lost, destroyed, stolen or otherwise missing as provided in Section 2.2(d)) for exchange as provided in Section 2.2 of this Plan of Merger, promptly after which time all such dividends or distributions will be paid (without interest).

2.7

Withholding Rights.

Each of the Continuing Corporation and the Exchange Agent will be entitled, but not obligated, to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration and any other amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Plan of Merger to any person such amounts, if any, as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax (as defined in the Agreement) law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority (as defined in the Agreement) by the Exchange Agent, such amounts withheld will be treated for all purposes of this Plan of Merger as having been paid to such person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Exchange Agent.

2.8

No Appraisal Rights.

During the term of this Agreement and at such time as FVCB conducts the FVCB Shareholders Meeting, except as provided in Section 5(b) hereof, Shareholder agrees to vote or cause to be voted all of the Shares, and to cause any holder of record of the Shares to vote all such Shares, in person or by proxy: (i) in favor of the Merger Agreement at the FVCB Shareholders Meeting; and (ii) against (A) any Acquisition Proposal, (B) any action, proposal, transaction or agreement which could reasonably be expected to result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of FVCB under the Merger Agreement or of Shareholder under this Agreement and (C) any action, proposal, transaction or

Covenants of Shareholder.

The Shareholder covenants and agrees as follows:

(a) Ownership. The Shareholder is the beneficial and/or registered owner of the Shares as set forth below Shareholder’s name on the signature page hereto. Except for (i) the Shares, (ii) FVCB Options and/or (iii) FVCB RSU Awards (which option and award shares, if any, are set forth on the signature page hereto), Shareholder is not the beneficial or registered owner of any other shares of FVCB Common Stock or rights to acquire shares of FVCB Common Stock and for which Shareholder has the sole right and power to vote and/or dispose. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “beneficial ownership” shall be interpreted in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

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

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

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

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

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

E-2

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

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

(i) Statements. The Shareholder shall not make any statement, written or oral, to the effect that he or she does not support the Merger or that other shareholders of FVCB should not support the Merger.

The Shareholder agrees that this Agreement and the obligations hereunder shall attach to the Shares and shall be binding upon any person or entity to which legal or beneficial ownership of the Shares shall pass, whether by operation of law or otherwise, including Shareholder’s successors or assigns. In the event of any stock split, stock dividend, merger, exchange, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure of FVCB affecting the Shares, the number of Shares subject to the terms of this Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted, and this Agreement and the obligations hereunder shall attach to any additional securities of FVCB issued to or acquired by Shareholder.
