ITEM 5.02 – ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT
On January 20, 2012, National Bankshares, Inc. subsidiary, The National Bank of Blacksburg (the “Bank”), entered into a new salary continuation agreement with Bryson J. Hunter, Senior Vice President, Secretary and Counsel to the Company and Counsel to the Bank. On the same date, the Bank entered in an amendment of an existing salary continuation agreement with David K Skeens, Chief Financial Officer of the Company. The named executive officers are part of a select group of Company or subsidiary executives who receive similar benefits under a salary continuation plan that is funded by an investment in Company or subsidiary owned life insurance policies on the lives of the executives. The executives and their beneficiaries are unsecured creditors of the Company and subsidiaries with respect to the benefits under the salary continuation plans.
Each of the salary continuation agreements provides an annual benefit for the executive officer at normal retirement age (age 65), that is payable for the greater of 15 years or the executive’s lifetime. If the executive dies before receiving annual benefit for 15 years, the benefit is paid to the executive’s beneficiary for the remainder of that period. A reduced benefit is payable upon the executive’s early termination, disability or upon a change in control of the executive’s employer. “Early termination”, “disability” and “change in control” are each defined in the salary continuation agreements. A death benefit that is equal in amount to the retirement benefit is paid to the executive’s beneficiary for 15 years in the event of the executive’s death while an active employee. No benefit is payable if the executive is terminated for cause, as that term is defined in the agreement.
The salary continuation agreement with Mr. Hunter provides that he will receive annual payments of $54,862.00 beginning at normal retirement in 2033. The agreement with Mr. Skeens, as amended, calls for annual payments of $65,940.00 at his normal retirement in 2031. At the time Mr. Skeens and the subsidiary entered into the original agreement and the First and Second Amendments, Mr. Skeens was not a “named executive officer” of the Company.
A copy of each of the salary continuation agreements and any amendments thereto with Mr. Hunter and Mr. Skeens are attached as Exhibit 10(iii)(A).
