in the proceeding if: (i) he conducted himself in good faith; (ii) he reasonably believed: (A) in the case of conduct in his official
capacity with First Community, that his conduct was in its best interest; and (B) in all other cases, that his conduct was at
least not opposed to its best interest; and (iii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, he had no reasonable cause to believe
his conduct was unlawful. The termination of a proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere
or its equivalent is not, of itself, determinative that the director did not meet the standard of conduct described in the preceding
sentence. The determination of whether the director met the standard of conduct described herein shall be made in accordance with
Section 33-8-550 of the South Carolina Business Corporation Act of 1988 (&ldquo;SCBCA&rdquo;) or any successor provision or provisions.
In addition to the bylaws, Section 33-8-520 of the SCBCA requires that a corporation &ldquo;indemnify a director who was wholly
successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which he was a party because he is or was a director
of the corporation against reasonable expenses incurred by him in connection with the proceeding.&rdquo; The SCBCA also provides
that upon application of a director a court may order indemnification if it determines that the director is entitled to such indemnification
under the applicable standard of the SCBCA. However, under the articles of incorporation, indemnification will be disallowed if
it is established that the director (i) breached his duty of loyalty to First Community, (ii) engaged in intentional misconduct
or a knowing violation of law, or (iii) derived an improper personal benefit.</FONT></P>

Plan and Awards granted hereunder are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code or an exemption or
exclusion therefrom and, with respect to amounts that are subject to Section 409A of the Code, it is intended that this Plan be
administered in all respects in accordance with Section 409A of the Code. Each payment under any Award shall be treated
as a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. In no event may a Participant, directly or indirectly,
designate the calendar year of any payment to be made under any Award that is not exempt from Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding
any provision of this Plan or any Agreement to the contrary, in the event that a Participant is a &ldquo;specified employee&rdquo;

amounts that constitute &ldquo;nonqualified deferred compensation&rdquo; within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code that would
otherwise be payable during the six (6)-month period immediately following a Participant&rsquo;s Separation from Service shall
instead be paid or provided on the first business day following the date that is six (6) months following the Participant&rsquo;s
Separation from Service or any earlier date permitted by Section 409A of the Code. If the Participant dies
following the Separation from Service and prior to the payment of any amounts delayed on account of Section 409A of the Code,
such amounts shall be paid to the personal representative of the Participant&rsquo;s estate within thirty (30) days following
the date of the Participant&rsquo;s death. In no event will the Company or any Subsidiary be required to reimburse a Participant
for any taxes imposed or other costs incurred as a result of Section 409A of the Code.</FONT></TD>
