Omnibus Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the "Omnibus SERP"), the terms of which Omnibus SERP are incorporated herein by reference; and WHEREAS, Centura's Compensation Committee has determined that the Participant is eligible to participate in the Omnibus SERP, and now deems it advisable to offer to Participant certain rights and benefits under the Omnibus SERP and this Agreement; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 1. RETIREMENT BENEFITS. Participant may elect Early Retirement at any ------------------- time during the ninety (90) day period beginning on his 58/th/ birthday (the "Election Period").

Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the Omnibus SERP, upon Participant's Early Retirement during the Election Period, Participant shall receive a monthly Retirement benefit equal to 40% of Participant's Final Average Monthly Compensation, payable for a period of one hundred and eighty (180) months. For purposes of this Agreement, "Final Average Monthly Compensation" means 1/12/th/ of the Annual Compensation payable to Participant as of his termination of employment.

DEATH BENEFITS. If Participant dies at any time before electing Early -------------- Retirement under Section 1 and while actively employed as a full-time officer of the Bank, Participant's beneficiary shall receive a monthly death benefit equal to forty percent (40%) of Participant's Final Average Monthly Compensation at the time of his death, payable for a period of one hundred and eighty (180) months beginning on the first day of the month coinciding with or next following Participant's date of death. Participant's beneficiary will not be entitled to any death benefits under the Omnibus SERP if Participant dies by committing suicide within two years from the date of becoming a Participant under the Omnibus SERP and this Agreement. If Participant's beneficiary dies before the end of the death benefit payment period specified hereunder, the remaining payments due under this Section 2 shall be paid to the beneficiary's estate in a lump sum payment equivalent in value to the remaining death benefit payments. If Participant's beneficiary predeceases Participant and Participant does not thereafter designate a new beneficiary, upon Participant's death a lump sum equivalent in value to the death benefit payments hereunder shall be paid to Participant's estate. The lump sum equivalent shall be computed using the Discount Rate in effect at the time of computation. 3. DISABILITY BENEFITS.
