Immediately upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, Wesbanco shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Hardy the amount of $387,624.92 in a single cash payment, subject to applicable withholding and payroll taxes.

Immediately upon the Effective Time of this Agreement, the Employment Agreement and each of its terms shall be surrendered by Hardy and the Employment Agreement all of its terms shall be null and void and without further force or effect. Specifically, immediately upon the Effective Time, Hardy shall not have a contract of employment with any party to this Agreement and shall not have any promise of severance or termination benefits in addition to those provided under policies of Wesbanco or Wesbanco Bank for all its employee generally.

In consideration of the covenants set forth herein, including but not limited to the payments set forth above, Hardy agrees as follows:

A. For a period of one (1) year after Hardy’ employment with Wesbanco, Wesbanco Bank and First Sentry is terminated for any reason other than the insolvency or bankruptcy of Wesbanco, Hardy shall not, directly or indirectly, engage in the business of banking in any county where First Sentry has operating offices as of the Effective Time or in Wayne County, West Virginia, Putnam County, West Virginia or Lawrence County. Ohio.

For purposes of this Section 4(A), being engaged in the business of banking shall mean Hardy’ engaging in any business or activity of any nature that is competitive with the business of First Sentry, Wesbanco or Wesbanco Bank or their affiliates in the specified geographic area or Hardy’ solicitation of business that is competitive with the business of First Sentry, Wesbanco, Wesbanco Bank or their affiliates, from clients with a primary or principal office in the specified geographic area.

Solely for purposes of this Section 4(A), if, at any time after the Effective Time, Wesbanco or Wesbanco Bank has been unable to offer Hardy a full-time, non-temporary position, with Wesbanco or Wesbanco Bank, or any of their affiliates, reasonably suited to Hardy’s experience and abilities and Hardy incurs a Separation from Service, without cause, then the restrictions of this Section 4(A) shall be null and void and of no further force and effect.

C. Hardy further recognizes and acknowledges that in the event of Hardy’s Separation from Service with First Sentry for any reason other than for cause, (1) a breach of the obligations and conditions set forth herein will irreparably harm and damage Wesbanco, Wesbanco Bank and First Sentry; (2) an award of money damages may not be adequate to remedy such harm; and (3) considering Hardy’ relevant background, education and experience, Hardy believes that he will be able to earn a livelihood without violating the foregoing restrictions. Consequently, Hardy agrees that, in the event that Hardy breaches any of the covenants set forth in this Section 4, Wesbanco, Wesbanco Bank, First Sentry, and/or their affiliates shall be entitled to both a preliminary and permanent injunction in order to prevent the continuation of such harm and to recover money damages, insofar as they can be determined.

In the event that this provision shall be deemed by any court or body of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable in whole or in part by reason of its extending for too long a period of time, or too great a geographical area or over too great a range of activities, or is overly broad in any other respect or for any other reason, then in such event this Agreement shall be deemed modified and interpreted to extend over only such maximum period of time, geographical area, or range of activity or otherwise, so as to render these provisions valid and enforceable, and as so modified, these shall be enforceable and enforced.

Hardy shall not, during the term of this Agreement or at any time thereafter, directly or indirectly, publish or disclose to any person or entity any confidential information (other than a Wesbanco, Wesbanco Bank or First Sentry employee entitled to know such confidential information) concerning the assets, customer/client lists, business or affairs of Wesbanco, Wesbanco Bank, First Sentry, and their affiliates, including but not limited to any trade secrets, financial data, employee or customer/client information or organizational structure.
