SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT

THIS SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of February 10, 2016 by and among (i) Xenith Bankshares, Inc., a Virginia corporation (the “Company”), (ii) BCP Fund I Virginia Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“BCP Fund”), and (iii) those shareholders who purchased shares of common stock, $1.00 par value (the “Xenith Common Stock”), of Xenith Corporation, a Virginia corporation (the “Predecessor”), in the Xenith Private Placement (such Persons are referred to herein collectively as the “Holders” and individually as a “Holder”).

WHEREAS, in connection with the Xenith Private Placement, the Predecessor and the Holders entered into an Investor Rights Agreement, dated as of June 26, 2009 (the “Original Investor Rights Agreement”), in order to provide the Holders, including the Institutional Investors, with certain rights with respect to the election of directors and the registration of their shares of Xenith Common Stock, including those shares issuable upon exercise of any options to purchase shares of Xenith Common Stock and any warrants exercisable into shares of Xenith Common Stock; and

WHEREAS, the Predecessor entered into an Agreement of Merger, dated May 12, 2009, as amended (the “Predecessor Merger Agreement”), with First Bankshares, Inc. (“FBS”), pursuant to which the Predecessor merged with and into FBS (the “Merger”), with FBS being the surviving corporation in the Merger; and

WHEREAS, the Predecessor, BCP Fund and the D&O Holders entered into the First Amendment to the Investor Rights Agreement, dated as of December 21, 2009 (the “First Amendment” and, together with the Original Investor Rights Agreement, the “Investor Rights Agreement”), that limited the obligations of the Holders under Article 2 of the Original Investors Rights Agreement to the Institutional Investors and the D&O Holders only, and relieved the remaining Holders of their obligations under Article 2; and

WHEREAS, the Merger was effected on December 22, 2009; and

WHEREAS, at the effective time of the Merger, FBS changed its name to Xenith Bankshares, Inc. and assumed the rights and obligations of the Predecessor under the Investor Rights Agreement by operation of law; and

WHEREAS, under the terms of the Predecessor Merger Agreement, all shares of Xenith Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger were cancelled and converted automatically into shares of common stock of the Company (“XBKS Common Stock”) and all options and warrants to purchase shares of Xenith Common Stock outstanding at the effective time of the Merger were converted into options and warrants to purchase shares of XBKS Common Stock; and

WHEREAS, the Company, BCP Fund and the Holders entered in an Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement, dated as of December 23, 2010 (the “First Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Investor Rights Agreement was amended and restated in its entirety; and


WHEREAS, this Agreement is amending and restating the First Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement in its entirety in anticipation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated as of February 10, 2016, by and between the Company and Hampton Roads Bankshares, Inc., a Virginia corporation (“HRB”) (such agreement, the “Merger Agreement,” and such transactions, the “Anticipated Merger”); and

WHEREAS, as of the date of this Agreement, BCP Fund is the sole Institutional Investor; and

WHEREAS, the Company and BCP Fund, as the sole Institutional Investor, desire to amend and restate the First Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement pursuant to Section 4.1 thereof solely for administrative convenience and without any intention of affecting (adversely or otherwise) any rights or obligations of the Company, the Institutional Investors or the other Holders under the Original Investor Rights Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment; and
