As an inducement for Employee and the Bank to enter into this Agreement whereby Employee would be employed by the Bank for a definite term, Wesbanco hereby undertakes the independent, separate and unconditional obligation to Employee to pay all amounts which are or may become due to Employee under this Agreement as set forth herein, regardless of the status of the direct or indirect enforceability or validity of the Bank’s obligation to pay any or all such amounts as may be due hereunder to Employee; provided, however, that for purposes of this Paragraph 13, Wesbanco shall be obligated to the Employee for any bonuses or any increases in base salary in excess of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) per annum only to the extent that it has consented to such bonuses or increases. Wesbanco also acknowledges that it may or may not be entitled to indemnification or contribution from the Bank or to be subrogated to the claim of Employee hereunder for any payments Wesbanco may make to Employee; and Wesbanco hereby specifically waives any rights it may otherwise have to indemnification or contribution from the Bank or to be subrogated to the claim of Employee hereunder in the event that such payments as are made by Wesbanco would be unenforceable or invalid for any reason against the Bank.

14.    MISCELLANEOUS. The invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement as against any one or more parties hereto, shall not impair or effect the other provisions hereof or the enforceability of said term or provision against the other parties hereto, and notwithstanding any such invalidity or unenforceability, each term or provision hereof shall remain in full force and effect to the full extent consistent with law.

15.    EFFECTIVENESS. This Agreement shall be effective and have legal and binding effect if, but only if, the Merger is consummated. If the Merger is not consummated, this Agreement shall be without legal force or effect and the Bank and Wesbanco shall have no obligations to Employee and Employee shall have no obligations to Wesbanco or the Bank.
