THE OHIO VALLEY BANK COMPANY
FOURTH AMENDED AND RESTATED
DIRECTOR RETIREMENT AGREEMENT
This FOURTH AMENDED AND RESTATED DIRECTOR RETIREMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is adopted this 13th day of May, 2015 by and between THE OHIO VALLEY BANK COMPANY, a state-chartered commercial bank located in Gallipolis, Ohio (the “Company”), and Brent A. Saunders (the “Director”). This Agreement amends and restates the prior Third Amended and Restated Director Retirement Agreement between the Company and the Director dated December 18, 2012 (the “2012 Amendment”), which amended and restated the prior Second Amended and Restated Director Retirement Agreement between the Company and the Director dated October 16, 2007 (the “2007 Amendment”), which amended and restated the prior Amended and Restated Director Retirement Agreement between the Company and the Director dated March 16, 2004 (the “2004 Agreement”).
The parties intended the 2007 Amendment to be a material modification of the 2004 Agreement such that all amounts earned and vested prior to December 31, 2004 shall be subject to the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder. The purpose of the 2012 Amendment was to clarify certain provisions with respect to the requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and Section 409A of Code. The purpose of the amendment and restatement reflected in this Agreement is to modify the definition of Normal Retirement Age so that it is consistent with the retirement requirements of the Company’s bylaws. The terms of this Agreement do not materially change the terms of the 2012 Amendment.
This Agreement provides specified benefits to the Director, a member of a select group of management or highly compensated employees who contribute materially to the continued growth, development and future business success of the Company. This Agreement shall be unfunded for tax purposes.

If the Director names someone other than the Director’s spouse as a Beneficiary, the Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion, determine that spousal consent is required to be provided in a form designated by the Plan Administrator, executed by the Director’s spouse and returned to the Plan Administrator. The Director’s beneficiary designation shall be deemed automatically revoked if the Beneficiary predeceases the Director or if the Director names a spouse as Beneficiary and the marriage is subsequently dissolved. The Director shall have the right to change a Beneficiary by completing, signing and otherwise complying with the terms of the Beneficiary Designation Form and the Plan Administrator’s rules and procedures. Upon the acceptance by the Plan Administrator of a new Beneficiary Designation Form, all Beneficiary designations previously filed shall be cancelled.

The Plan Administrator may require proof of incompetence, minority or guardianship as it may deem appropriate prior to distribution of the benefit. Any distribution of a benefit shall be a distribution for the account of the Director and the Beneficiary, as the case may be, and shall completely discharge any liability under this Agreement for such distribution amount. |
